Chapter 678 Attack
When the war in Silver Star City began, a secret projection meeting was held at the same time in the central palace of a city called Laputel, which was controlled by the marquises, on the border battlefield of the distant Karlas Province.
Relying on the crystal ball engraved with layers of secret patterns in the core chamber, the flow rate of time in the illusory conference room is kept at a constant ratio of ten to one with the flow rate of time in the outside world, and it has the effect of anti-prophecy magic.
Projections with different appearances appeared in the conference room almost at the same time.
If someone knew them, they would be surprised to find that in the projection of this small conference room, the projections of the seven marquises who started the war have all arrived!
"The news has been officially confirmed. The [Light Chaser] of the Alfred family and the [Silver Storm] of the Olivendi family have been secretly transferred back and appeared in the battlefield of the Star Territory.
Now, the battlefield of Silver Star City on the southeast side of the Carlas Province and the battlefield of Leila City on the east side are no longer protected by the ninth-level power."
After all the participants arrived, the projection of Marquis Winter, whose appearance was a dark figure shrouded in mist, spoke first and told the news he had obtained.
No one was surprised by this result, or rather, the two major families had no choice.
"Then, according to the plan, we should choose the next target."
Looking around at the many silent marquises, the projection of Marquis Winter finally said.
"I think the [Glorious Holy Sword] of the Alfred family is good. He has only broken through to the ninth level in the past two hundred years. His strength is average and it is not difficult to get it."
Since the name of a ninth-level strongman can be easily sensed by the other party when reciting it directly, people often call the enemy's ninth level by his title when discussing it.
"Winter Chill of the Olivendi family is also good. He is known as the youngest ninth-rank master in the empire and has great potential in the future. He is worth targeting."
"I second this. I also think it is appropriate to choose these two ninth-rank masters as targets."
"I second this!"
Many marquises discussed this, but in the end they all agreed that the targets could be set on these two ninth-rank masters.
"Everyone, unfortunately, we can only choose one of them for the time being."
However, after listening to everyone's discussion in silence for a while, Marquis Draka finally spoke.
"We currently have only two more ninth-level fighters than the other side, and the target is from a duke family, so he must have a lot of high-level magic items on him.
If only two of us act together, we may be able to easily defeat the other side, but it is difficult to really kill the target. At least three ninth-level fighters are needed to be safe."
"If you have to choose one of the two, I think [Winter Chill] is the most suitable. He is very young and has great potential in the future."
"I am still more optimistic about [Sword of Glory]. According to intelligence, he is likely to break through again in the near future, which is a big threat to us."
"I also agree to choose [Sword of Glory]."
"I choose [Winter Chill]."
"..."
"Then, let's vote!"
As the intentions of many marquises diverged, Marquis Winter spoke indifferently.
No one raised any objections, and after a moment, the voting results were officially announced.
[Winter Chill] Carrot won with a vote of four to three.
"Well, Lord Cuijing and Lord Anrita, your opponents have left now. According to the agreement, please cooperate with me secretly and make sure to successfully solve the target."
"As for the two battlefields, according to the agreement, they will be temporarily handed over to the resistance organizations to occupy. I hope they can do a good job of this little thing."
Seeing this, Marquis Beshim, who looked like an ordinary young man with black hair and black eyes, slowly stood up and nodded to the two marquises.
As the target and the execution personnel have been determined, the temporary projections of the marquises stood up and dissipated, and the meeting ended.
It was not only Avis who wanted to reduce the enemy's ninth-level personnel, the marquis also thought so.
On the other side, after the temporary meeting, the two marquises, Cuijing and Anrita, who were assigned tasks, immediately set off and secretly teleported to the location of Marquis Beshim.
At this moment, Marquis Beshim was in charge of the army on the west side of the province of Karlas.
After seeing the two marquises secretly teleported in, a man wearing a dark green priest robe with the emblem of the [Songxing Secret Cult] and a strange stone mask nodded slightly to the two.
Seeing this person, the two marquises' eyes flashed with a trace of vigilance.
Marquis Cuijing was most impressed by them. He was actually one of the three marquises who were severely injured in the explosion of the Sky City and should have been recovering slowly.
But while he was recuperating, the mysterious [Songxing Secret Cult] suddenly appeared and used a strange ritual to quickly restore his strength. The price was to join the marquis' camp and go to war with the four major families.
But after receiving treatment, Marquis Cuijing was left with a strong sense of vigilance. He couldn't solve a problem that he couldn't solve at the ninth level, so how could these alien god cults solve it?
"Before this operation begins, I will temporarily cover the fate of your majesties to prevent the enemy from noticing in advance."
Facing the faint hostility of the two marquises, the masked [Songxing Secret Cult] priest turned a blind eye.
"Now, let's go!"
.
….….
"The war should have already started... huh?"
In the large tent of the Chinese army, Duke Carrot paused while reviewing a document. He looked at the night sky in the direction of the stars and suddenly felt uneasy for no reason.
He put down the magic quill in his hand, and his invisible thoughts suddenly expanded. He carefully searched every corner around the army, but in the end he found nothing.
"Yes, they need to contain me and prevent me from supporting other battlefields... In other words, they are about to launch an attack."
After gradually clarifying the situation, the Duke's expression turned cold.
At the same time, the ground began to shake slightly, which was the effect that could only be caused when a large number of troops charged. The roar of magic and the sharp sound of arrows cutting through the air were faintly transmitted to the Duke's ears.
And in the center of the countless incoming armies, a terrifying aura like the sun had already locked onto Duke Carrot who was sitting in the army.
"I don't know what the situation is like with Fiona and Anvis."
The Duke suddenly stood up and disappeared from the tent. The next moment he appeared in mid-air, facing the Marquis of Beshim in the distance.
There was no dialogue. Above the armies of both sides like a black tide below, two different areas of rules expanded from the two of them and violently collided with each other. Everything seemed to be no different from before.
But at the next moment, two other different rule fields suddenly expanded from nothingness, and together with the earliest Marquis Beshim, they were surrounded on three sides, surrounding Duke Carrot in the center!
The sudden accident caused Carlot's expression to change suddenly, and what made his heart sink even more was that the space on the battlefield had been completely blocked by the alien power, and the message for help could no longer be sent out.
Three against one, after barely holding on for a moment, Duke Carrot's rule domain quickly dissolved like snowflakes in the sun.
It can be seen through the looming field that beside the Duke, a twenty-sided ice crystal shining with starlight is suspended with difficulty, exuding a terrifying aura of rules, supporting the Duke's last defensive position, but it is still in three places. Under the joint attack of the ninth level, the name quickly dimmed.
If there are no variables, then Carrot will become the first ninth level to withdraw from this imperial civil war.
