Chapter 379 Second Continental War (2)
Commander of Valhalla.
Viscount Marron, a veteran of the war, received an order from the superior.
“By any means, slow down Roman Dmitri. It’s okay if you can’t kill him. However, if you buy more than a month to prevent Roman Dmitri from escaping the territory of Valhalla, I will give you riches and glory after the war. keep in mind If Roman Dmitri crosses the borders of Valhalla before then, you will have to pay for it with your life.”
For him, the order was like a thunderbolt.
Having obtained the title of Viscount in a major reorganization, he was driven to the battlefield rather than living as a dream-like power.
If the opponent was a normal being, he would have been confident.
It was not a task to deal with the opponent with the authority to command hundreds of thousands of troops in the South, but simply to buy time.
the problem is.
The opponent is Roman Dmitri.
Once he moved his troops to form a siege, he gave orders to his subordinates with a cautious face.
“Keep a certain distance, and don’t rush ahead beyond that. Our presence in the vicinity will inevitably slow down Roman Dmitri’s movement. There is only one case of attacking Roman Dmitri first. When trying to utilize movement devices such as warp gates. At that time, the goal is not to kill the opponent, but to destroy the mobile device, even if we all die.”
“yes.”
“All right.”
Everyone had a sad look on their faces.
Even then.
They believed it was a viable operation.
That he could keep Roman Dmitri off his feet while keeping his distance.
however.
The reality was different.
Kwalung.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
“Cheak!”
“Stop! The siege must not be breached!”
There was no conversation.
Communication with each other did not exist from the beginning, and Roman Dmitri suddenly rushed in and slaughtered the soldiers in the street.
distance control? It was impossible in the first place.
I reached it in an instant, how fast it was, and I saw Roman Dmitri disappearing in the distance while screaming and collapsing.
Shinchulgwimol (God’s 出鬼沒).
I couldn’t follow it with my eyes.
The siege, thought to have been elaborately constructed in its own way, was being torn to shreds in an instant.
“Damn it! retreat! Other units are forming a second and third line of deterrence, so we conserve our forces and join them!”
changed the operation.
One side of the siege has already collapsed.
Rather than allowing a meaningless sacrifice to catch Roman Dmitri by the tail, he thought it would be a pragmatic decision to go back and form a siege once again.
Viscount Marron’s forces were not limited to this place.
If you were the 1st line of deterrence, then the 2nd and 3rd lines so many troops formed a line of deterrence centered on the southern jungle area and made a plate so that you could not help but be blocked by them in any direction.
White warlord.
Viscount Marron’s experiences were not just words.
Utilizing his experience so far, he stubbornly tried to stop Roman Dmitri.
And that’s it.
“You are the commander.”
“?!”
It was the last moment Viscount Marron remembered.
squeak.

Hector Kingdom.
There was also an emergency.
Edwin Hector convened the kingdom’s leaders and immediately proceeded with a meeting.
Butler said.
“A little while ago, I received a report that the army of the Valhalla Empire has begun to move. As expected of the prince. It is clear that the Valhalla Empire has an intention to isolate Roman Dmitri in the southern jungle and destroy the kingdom union like the Kronos Empire.”
Northward of Valhalla.
The reason they set Hector’s kingdom as their first target was because it was blocking the road to Dmitri.
Due to the recent civil war and battles in the southern jungle, the power of the Valhalla Empire has weakened a lot, but that doesn’t mean that Hector Kingdom alone can’t stop them.
Hector suffered a crushing defeat in the war with the Kingdom of Cairo and recently recovered while solving the food problem.
The power difference with Valhalla was obvious.
The moment they reach the border, they will be swept away at once, but that doesn’t mean they can’t open the way.
Edwin Hector said.
“The enemy’s intentions are blatant. They must be planning to use Roman Dmitri’s absence to trample on us and attack Dmitri directly. We must stop the advance of Valhalla somehow. The life and death of this country must be bought enough time for Roman Dmitri to escape Valhalla’s territory.”
The survival of Roman Dmitry.
It wasn’t even suspected.
It would take quite a while to move due to physical limitations, but Roman Dmitri believed that he would cut down all the Valhalla soldiers blocking the road and escape Valhalla.
The question is, can you survive until then?
Most of the Kingdom Alliance has been conducting war in a way that blindly follows Roman Dmitri, but Edwin Hector knew that such a moment would come one day.
War is like that.
As the responsibilities increase, Roman Dmitri cannot handle all the areas alone.
blast furnace.
The results had to be shown.
The unification of the two empires can only be broken by proving that the union of the kingdoms is formidable.
“Gather your troops on the southern border. Defeat will soon lead to the downfall of Hector and the kingdom union. The Kronos Empire and the Valhalla Empire joined forces. If Valhalla is really Cronus’ dog, as rumored to be, seizing victory in this war will determine the future of the continent.”
“All right.”
burned the will
As the people left to fulfill the order, Edwin Hector also moved somewhere.
‘The Hector Kingdom cannot currently receive help from the Kingdom Alliance. The Three Kingdoms of the South, Dmitry and Cairo. Right now, they are busy solving the fire that fell on their feet. Then there is only one force we can trust.’
recent.
Hector brought great power into his domain.
they’re right.
It was the magic tower in the sky, said to be the best group of magicians on the continent.
* * *
Kingdoms and mages.
The relationship between the two was unusual.
The kingdom gave up territory for the mage tower, but there was no absolute authority to give orders to the mage tower.
But fortunately.
At Edwin Hector’s request, the lord of the magic tower in the sky nodded.
“Of course I should help. Emperor Kronos is the main culprit in the disappearance of wizards. As a result, many wizards suffered, and the Mage Tower of the Sky chose to migrate to Hector to avoid him. However, if the kingdom union collapses like this, even as a magic tower in the sky, the future cannot be guaranteed. It also means that we, Hector, must risk life and death to defeat the Valhalla Empire.”
“thank you.”
“I will receive thanks after winning the war.”
It was a strong support group.
The lord of the heavenly mage.
He was a wizard of the 7th circle.
In addition, since numerous wizards belong to the sky, their joining will exert an absolute presence in siege warfare.
With this, a solution was prepared to bridge the power gap with the Valhalla Empire.
If the Magic Tower of the Sky had not existed, Edwin Hector would not have thought of an all-out war with Valhalla.
It was then.
The lord of the magic tower in the sky said.
“By the way, Edwin.”
“Tell me.”
“Did you practice diligently on ‘that’ I taught you?”
its identity.
It was the heavenly secret.
Right after Edwin Hector formed a relationship as a priest with the lord of the magic tower in the sky, he taught him the secret technique that made him reach the level of the 7th circle.
From then on, Edwin Hector practiced hard.
I actually felt like I was developing magically, so I believed that I could overcome the wall of the 6th circle based on this.
The question was a bit out of the blue.
However, it was an area that he could ask as a teacher, so Edwin Hector nodded.
“Yes, I trained hard. Thanks to that, there have been tangible results.”
“okay?”
It was strange.
The lord of the magic tower in the sky laughed.
It was a look I hadn’t seen before.
His benevolent appearance showed an expression like a demon everywhere, revealing his greed.
“Then you must be ripe enough.”
That moment.
pod.
Fire!
Dark energy exploded.
Edwin Hector hurriedly raised his magic, but before he had time to respond, he was engulfed in the dark energy.
* * *
In the dark.
I felt unpleasant.
My body was not free, as if I had fallen into a sticky swamp, and I was not sure if my eyesight was intact because it was dark everywhere.
However, his hearing was intact.
The reason I was able to think so was that the voice of the lord of the Heavenly Mage Tower could be heard as clearly now as it was engulfed in darkness.
“It must be questionable for you. What the hell is this? What the hell have I done to you, whom I have served as your teacher?”
I laughed out loud.
Even without looking at his face, his voice alone brought to mind the other person’s expression.
“Stupid boy. If I had thought a little more carefully, I would have been able to know the truth of the sky. lets think. In the Kronos Empire, there are successive cases of disappearances of wizards, so why was the Mage Tower in the Sky, the most delicious prey, safe? And the Kronos Empire pretended to stop the Mage Tower in the Sky from migrating, but in the end, what is the reason for giving way?”
I was out of breath.
Edwin Hector wanted to grab his neck, but he couldn’t see or feel it.
“From the beginning, I was a being who lived for His Majesty the Emperor Cronus. The reason I tried to accept you as a disciple was to develop your talent well and swallow it. However, I delayed the time while watching you grow into a key figure related to Roman Dmitri. I wanted to chew your heart right away and absorb the circle’s mana, but I had no choice but to put up with the desire because the social position of ‘Edwin Hector’ was more useful than your brilliant talent. Do you know how much I wanted to eat you all this time? For reference, there were a few cases where I committed the disappearance of wizards. I was able to get to where I am today by devouring others like that.”
It was a shocking truth.
Salamander Continent.
As much as Alexander was called the first pioneer, his roots spread all over the continent.
Emperor Kronos too.
Even the Emperor of Valhalla.
The Duke of Vieto is also the leader of the Magic Tower in the Sky.
All were Alexander’s loyal dogs.
They were waiting for the ‘time’ when special conditions were met, and they quietly hid their presence in the appearance of a powerful enemy named Roman Dmitri.
Like a crocodile waiting underwater for the right moment to attack.
No matter what kind of mess Roman Dmitri made, they all showed their teeth, starting with the Valhalla incident.
It was simultaneous.
The reason why Alexander was sure of victory was not unfounded confidence.
He has been preparing his ambition to conquer the continent for a long time so thoroughly that no one can stop him.
“The grand plan has already begun. The kingdom of Hector would collapse without you, so now I will devour you and achieve my purpose.”
rumble.
locked in the dark
Like falling into the deep sea.
Edwin Hector lost his mind.

moment.
Edwin Hector came to mind the words of Roman Dmitri.
“The Kronos Empire uses mental-type magic. It breaks the human spirit and turns it into a puppet that will obey any command. In the meantime, we have seen countless things that Kronos has done based on black magic. It should not end with a mere incident. If something like that could happen to us at any time, we should take it as an example that we can respond to with certainty.”
It happened during training.
Roman Dmitri spoke in a firm voice that did not waver as he faced those who were looking at him.
“I will not let anyone who has been turned into a puppet live. Even if it’s you or my family. Those who are being eaten up by Cronus and endanger Dmitri will beheaded in front of everyone to set Dmitri’s laws right.”
Eupchammasok (泣斬馬謖).
It is not a warning statement.
There was actually such an example in Roman Dmitri’s previous life, and he knew all too well that if he broke the law with his affection, the whole force would be shaken.
That Roman Dmitry had such an experience.
It could only be described as fortunate for the people in the current life.
that day.
“I will teach you how to overcome mind control.”
Roman Dmitri passed on to everyone the defense martial arts of the Hwanma, which cannot be destroyed by any martial arts in the world.
That moment.
Flash.
Edwin Hector opened his eyes and looked straight into the darkness.
