    A small town at the foot of the mountain, Isonzo.  ¡÷ The pale and thin man in black entered the city from the south gate. He walked slowly towards the Queen's Palace along the shady eaves.  Passers-by either shrank away or lowered their heads to salute the de facto ruler.  The Lord of Shadows, Silvis, is wearing a black robe, with his "Demon Hunting" blades hanging on his waist, and his movements are as gentle as a civet cat.  He stepped into the carved and gilded door as if he were walking into his own home, and the guards holding halberds at the door didn't show any sign. They were new soldiers who joined the Judgment Crusade, and they admired Silvis even more than Ah.  Narista.  He walked through the courtyard and entered the front hall. Today was not the day of the court meeting, so there was no one in the hall.  Silvis paused for a moment and continued to walk back. There were green pines and cypresses growing in the garden, and the flower branches that used to be gorgeous were now withered.  Analista in the palace is about to wither. At the age of thirty-six, she was once one of the youngest legendary warriors in the Holy See, but her calm and confident temperament has long since faded away with the strength in her body.  , and gradually disappeared.  When Silvis came in, she was dressing up in the mirror, holding a charcoal pencil in her hand, and carefully tracing the corners of her eyebrows.  Silvis remembered that the Spider Queen in the past never cared about this. She was dressed in black and walked through the shadows. Even though she was naked, she still looked gorgeous.  But now, Analista cares more and more about the opinions of others. At the same time, her character has become suspicious and sensitive.  Silvis misses the person she used to be and feels pity for the person she is now, but the young man possessed by the evil god has to choose to leave to prevent her from being infected by the power of the shadow.  "Sylvis?" Analista's surprised voice came, and immediately, she deliberately pretended to be cold.  "Why are you here?" "I have to go out," Silvis replied in a low voice, standing a dozen steps away, "so I came to say goodbye to you." "Where are you going?" Analyse  Ta stood up in astonishment, lifted up her long skirt and walked to him, raised her head and asked.  "Ranken." Silvis took half a step back without leaving any trace.  He replied calmly.  "What are you doing in Ranken?" Analista asked.  With Silvis in charge, she can enjoy the glory and wealth safely. If he leaves here, then the position of the queen will be overthrown in a few days.  "There is something." Silvis replied briefly. He went to Ranken because the "Lord of Shadows" wanted to fulfill his agreement with the "Lord of Pale", and he had to go because the evil god could take away control of the body at any time.  .  "You don't want to say that, right?" I heard his indifferent answer.  Analista felt some resentment in her heart. She turned around bitterly and said angrily, "If you don't want to, just get out. You can go wherever you like." "I" Silvis sighed secretly, and the two of them  The person's relationship is stuck in an endless loop, but he doesn't know how to solve it.  Because emotional repair requires getting along, and the price of getting along is.  It is the downfall of two people.  Analista stood there, waiting for Silvis to comfort herself.  One minute, two minutes, time passed bit by bit.  When she finally realized that the gentle breathing behind her could no longer be heard, Silvis had already left the palace and embarked on the road to Ranken.  A line that has been around for thousands of years.  A pilgrimage for believers in the light. ? ? ****** ? On December 13th, Inedil got up very early.  He took a shower and changed into a brand-new bishop's robe. Even his sluggish energy in recent days seemed to be lifted a bit.  Ten o'clock in the morning.  Inedil held the "Eye of the Holy Spirit" in one hand and held the archbishop's scepter tightly in the other hand, and got on the carriage heading to the north of the city.  Since dawn, believers in Ranken City have left the city one by one and gathered in the open space outside the city in an orderly manner.  The officers and men of the New Guangming Army rode their horses and ordered them to line up in formation. Priests and priests were also inspecting the completed magical formations separately to ensure that everything was safe.  Inedil¡¯s carriage passed through the orderly crowd and arrived at the high platform at the center of the magical array.  The platform is twelve meters high, and the entire body is made of pure white boulders. There are hundreds of stone platforms like this around, with different heights and scattered in an orderly manner.  The chubby Archbishop Todd has the honor to sit on a nine-meter-high platform.  There are four platforms at the same level as him, east, west, north and south, and their height is second only to Archbishop Inedil.  This is also the four-dimensional hub of the "Foundation of the Kingdom of Heaven", and its importance is self-evident.  Todd lay on the edge of the high platform and looked down cautiously.  The platform is divided into several levels, and there are several female priests standing below. From his perspective, he can clearly see certain "landscapes".  "Sir," a close subordinate tugged at his sleeve, "the ceremony is about to begin, and the archbishop is looking at you." After hearing this, Todd immediately stood up.?Raise your head and sit upright.  He is now a high-ranking bishop of the Holy See and also serves as the acting commander of the New Army of Light. He has a bright future and must be careful in his words and deeds. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? The Snowton army is watching with eager eyes, and the Holy See of Light is in danger, and it is unknown how many days this bishop can remain in office.  Todd sighed, wondering if he should get in touch with his old friend Allegri so that he could have a way out in the future.  Inedil withdrew his gaze. This Todd had many problems, but he was obedient, quick-thinking, and easy to use. That's why he promoted him repeatedly to dilute the voice of those old stubborns.  The fine white sand in the hourglass flowed down little by little. It was almost noon, and Inedil looked around, feeling a surge of pride and ambition in his heart.  In any case, the White Tower is still there, the holy city of Ranken is still there, the Holy See of Light is still there, he still has such a powerful force, so many believers, and the glory of the God Lord in the sky.  Under the high platform where he was standing, 3,650 children were lined up in a square formation, waiting patiently.  After this period of training, they have become much quieter, and their clear eyes are filled with innocent yearning.  Those teachers from the Ascetic Order have said that they are the hope of the Church of Light, the chosen sons of God, and are destined to become heroes admired by thousands of people.  This sentence is not wrong, but the wording may be inappropriate.  It¡¯s not ¡°become¡±, it¡¯s ¡°become¡±. ? ? ****** ? Under the instruction of King Nachini, the "Golden Hibiscus" and other cavalry units slightly modified their marching route, heading north from Levin County.  Then turn left before the "Fortress of Sorrow" and head west to reach the Green River Valley.  This will take an extra day, but it is nothing compared to fulfilling the king's wish.  The only concern is that the snow will fall at any time, then.  Their traveling speed will be greatly reduced.  When thousands of miles away, thousands of miles away, the melodious chants of the Ranken City rang out, King Nachini looked far into the distance and saw the east branch of the majestic Cast Iron Mountains, as well as the shadowy "Fortress of Sorrow" under the mountains.  The Elendil Corridor is a hundred miles long, with the narrowest point being only over ten miles.  The "Fortress of Sorrow" was guarding this choke point, blocking Snowton's cavalry from heading south.  Of course, it is no longer necessary to say this now.  With the "Fortress of Sorrow" as the source, the mountain roads within a radius of nearly a hundred miles are filled with masses of poisonous miasma, which is the corpse poison extracted by the evil god "Death Knell" himself.  Ordinary people will die if they touch it, even high-ranking warriors.  It can only last for a quarter of an hour. If you continue to go deeper, you will be besieged to death by the "miasma spirit".  "Your Majesty, we will arrive at the southern end of the Elendil Corridor tomorrow," Catroman introduced with a whip, "to the east of the 'Fortress of Sorrow'. It is the Undead Wilderness. I remember there is a small city there, and the south of the city is governed by people from the Holy See of Light.  The north of the city belongs to the sphere of influence of the 'Council of Bones'" "General, have you been to the south before?" King Nachini asked sideways.  "Ordinary scouts are not capable of climbing over the Cast Iron Mountains, sometimes. I can only do it myself." Carter Roman smiled. After a heavy drunkenness, his depressed mood had returned to normal.  ¡°Climbing mountains and ridges is indeed like walking on flat ground for a legendary warrior,¡± King Nachini shook his head and sighed, ¡°However, large-scale army mobilization also requires stable north-south passages By the way, the current situation of the Green Dome Corridor  "How?" "It is said that it has been deserted for a long time," Catroman thought for a moment and replied, "On the one hand, the undead wilderness is constantly expanding and the roads are muddy, almost like a swamp. On the other hand, merchants are more willing to choose to make money.  "Business rules, rather than acting based on the faces of those elves." "A long time ago, the mountains of the East were also the territory of the highland elves," King Naqini snorted, "Later, these pointed ears retracted and whispered obediently.  Forest." Catroman smiled and did not answer. It is not easy to attack the elven tribe.  The forest overgrown with vines is a nightmare for the cavalry troops.  "Your Majesty, General Costa sent back good news. The day before yesterday, the 'Black Flag' defeated a desert cavalry, beheaded two thousand people and captured three thousand people. There was also a small group of enemy troops who fled towards the direction of Liarich City.  "A ranger dismounted and announced loudly.  "It's a pity that Llajic City no longer welcomes them," King Nakini smiled slightly and ordered, "I order Costa and Fran not to covet military glory, publicize their achievements and scare them away."  It is an impossible task to annihilate all the scattered desert cavalry in a wide range.  The purpose of his sending out the "Black Flag" and "Long Shot in Blue" was just to create momentum and let the Desert Cavalry know the news of the fall of Ljajic, so that they could take the initiative to retreat to Setstian.  But the Settians won¡¯tWhat to think.  In the Crystal Palace, Levi I frowned. The urgent military information sent back by Lyajic made him feel a fire in his heart, but he had nowhere to release it.  "The territory acquired by one hundred thousand desert cavalry was just snatched away?" Levi I patted the jade case and looked at the imperial ministers angrily, "Are the defenders of Lyaichi all freeloaders? General  Who is it? Bring him back and question him!" "Go back to the king, the guard is General Rudiger," the Minister of Military Aircraft glanced at his face and replied in a low voice.  "Rudiger?" Levi I muttered the name of his brother-in-law, and suddenly became silent. He grabbed the short beard under his chin and lowered his voice a little. "Where is he now?" "He returned to Gray Rock City.  , waiting for the King's decision," the Minister of Military Aircraft paused for a moment, but still excused him, "The enemy was caught by surprise, and they had a city-breaking weapon like 'Vulcan's Wrath'. The fall of Lyaichi was not caused by Rudiger.  "It's the general's fault." "What's more, the number of enemy troops is more than twice that of the defenders, and there are many elites like 'Golden Hibiscus' and 'Black Flag'. It can only be said that Nachini was too cunning, and they just captured it.  Severa, even sending troops at night is hard to guard against," the Minister of Civil Affairs also agreed.  "Forget it," Levi I waved his hand and ordered, "Continue to increase troops to the north to guard against Snowton's sneak attack. If Gray Rock City falls again, they will commit suicide and apologize." ****** Hershey  Si River Valley.  Allegri picked up an array disk, covered it with his palm, injected a trace of flame magic into it, and connected the key points together. This formation disk was successfully activated.  After that, only an apprentice-level mage can activate the array and fully unleash its astonishing destructive power.  As the signature of "Wrath of the Vulcan", the reputation of the "Bomb" array has long been known to everyone.  But there are very few people who can see the production process.  This magic workshop located in the north-central part of the river valley has a dedicated defense force. Except for Allegri and a few other people, no one can enter or exit at will.  In addition, Brooke also sent people to set up a large number of magic traps, which were all kinds of and varied. The only thing in common was that they were all very loud, which was also the old magician's special hobby.  A few days ago, Allegri even specially invited Collison to conduct a field test to check for omissions.  Afterwards, the legendary thief who was dizzy and tinnitus had to admit that the alarm facilities here were really impressive.  "You go ahead, I'll take a walk around." Seeing that Allegri had no time to be distracted, Onissa, who accompanied him, informed him softly.  "Okay." Allegri responded casually, not taking the matter to heart.  To be honest, this kind of repetitive work is really boring. Even he feels bored, let alone the bystanders.  Onissa was walking around freely inside and outside the workshop. The guard next to her quickly stepped forward and told her where she could set foot and where the traps were.  As the governor of the river valley, Onissa has always been known for being close to the people. She stopped to chat with the guards, asking them about their daily life and whether there were any deficiencies.  This defense force of 200 people is divided into four groups and is on duty in turns day and night.  When the lord and his wife inquired, they naturally told the truth without hiding anything.  It wasn¡¯t until all the formation disks were activated that Onissa said goodbye to the guards with a smile.  She and Allegri left the magic workshop and went to the banquet hall in the river valley to have dinner with everyone.  During the meal break, the girl chatted with Caldera for a few words. As a former master and subordinate, this was normal. ???????? Really, it couldn¡¯t be more normal.  ¡­(To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster! ps: (Updated.)
