Chapter 244: Alien Invasion (2)
Chapter 244 Invasion from Another World (2)
This sudden situation immediately shocked everyone who was paying attention here. The news was reported layer by layer and quickly spread.
Three minutes later, Nikolayevich received the report. Five minutes later, the senior officials of the Northwest Province, the commander of the garrison, the Grand Knight Commander of the Knights, and the Speaker of the Noble Parliament received the report. Half an hour later, they received the report at the residence of the king and the prime minister in the capital. Magical Messages…
The gate of time and space appeared again in Faerun City, and a large number of troops from other worlds appeared. The news quickly spread in the Kingdom of Lorenzo and even the entire continent.
Originally, the government and the military wanted to join forces to block the news, but I don’t know where the problem occurred. The “Kingdom Metropolis Daily” first reported the incident, followed by reprints in major newspapers in the kingdom, and the ruins of Faerun reappeared. The news of the suspected alien invasion quickly occupied the front pages of major newspapers.
At this time, it is meaningless to block the news. Instead of making the public suspicious, it is better to report the official news generously.
In this regard, the Royal Government's response was quite timely. The press officer of the Prime Minister's Office held a press conference four hours later, and secretly warned various newspapers not to publish unfounded gossip, and all official news shall prevail.
has controlled public opinion, which makes the Royal Government a little relieved, at least under the guidance of public opinion, it will not cause the people to panic too much. And in the newspapers, those invaders from another world were described as backward and barbaric civilizations. The other party was still using big swords and spears, wearing tattered leather armor. intruder.
Of course, not everyone is fooled. Many people still have questions in their hearts. Since the other party is so backward, why is the other party coming instead of us invading the other party's world? At least so far, no country on the mainland has the ability to invade another world.
At the same time, the upper echelons of the kingdom are also caught in an endless debate, which is the eternal focus, whether it is war or peace.
Different from the usual military main battles with civilians, after the last incident in Faerûn City, those big men in the military have understood that a truly powerful transcendental existence, no matter how large the army is, can’t compete, just let the soldiers go in vain. Just die. Just like in the battle in Faerûn City, the gate of time and space was opened, and otherworldly creatures poured in, and the seemingly impregnable position just held on for a while.
Moreover, this time it is not those chaotic and unorganized alien creatures, but the real army from another world. This can be seen from the news that the other party is well organized, has hierarchical discipline, and is around the gate of time and space. Defensive positions and camps large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people were established.
The real main battle is the group representing the interests of the Holy Light Church. They regard those invaders from other worlds as heretics, calling them blasphemers and must be eliminated.
However, although the Holy Light Church is the main battle, it does not intend to send its own Crusaders or Holy Light Knights to take the lead. They hope that the Kingdom's army will rush in front and be cannon fodder.
No one is a fool. Several veteran generals representing the interests of the military clapped the table on the spot. In the end, there was no resolution in this six-hour meeting, and everyone broke up in discord. The meeting will continue tomorrow. The order given to the Northwest Province after the meeting was an extremely irresponsible 'observation on the spot, report at any time'.
The high-ranking officials and garrison commander in Northwest Province almost scolded their mother when they received the order. What kind of **** order is this? They have no attitude, and they have not sent reinforcements. You can do whatever you want.
Senior officials, garrison commanders, and special bureau chiefs, these three top officials of the Northwest Province, look at me, I look at you, and no one spoke for a long time.
They all knew that the kingdom's politics were corrupt, they pushed the blame from above and below, and prevaricates each other, but they didn't expect it to be corrupt to such an extent. Facing the invasion from another world, it was still inefficient, and they didn't know the severity. Do they have to wait for the enemy to hit the capital? Did you know you were afraid?
Unfortunately, they could only scold them in their hearts, and no one could run away when things came to an end.
Senior Isaac looked helplessly at Commander Ulathong: "Do you think the garrison should build two lines of defense at the front first?"
Commander Wulatong immediately shook his head: "It's useless, now it has been confirmed that the opponent's army is all extraordinary, and the army of ordinary people can't compete at all. Let those young men go up and die. I can't give such an order."
Ishak's senior official is also helpless. In fact, he doesn't know the gap between the ordinary army and the extraordinary, and he himself has a formal-level extraordinary ability.
After being explicitly rejected by Commander Ulaton, the high-ranking Ishak looked at Nikolayevich again. As for the new director of the Special Bureau, who was the dean of the Santa Academy, he really had some touches. Every time he faced each other, Just like facing the mountains, it is the natural suppression of the legendary transcendents on the inferiors. Now there is no other way, so I can only bite the bullet and say to Nikolayevich: "Look..."
Before the senior Isaac could finish speaking, Nikolayevich interrupted him and said lightly: "Needless to say, although it is the responsibility of the special bureau to fight against the transcendent, the situation of the alien invasion is special and not unique to a province. The bureau can contend, we must mobilize the strength of the whole country, and I will not let my subordinates die."
Nikolayevich rejected the last glimmer of Isaac's high official's hopes with an unquestionable tone, which made him smile bitterly. When he got up, he could only cry and say with a sad face: "What are the plans of the two of you, you can't just sit back and ignore it! Those **** who eat corpses in the capital can procrastinate, but we will bear the brunt! Once the other party is assembled, the extraordinary army calls, we What should I do? Could it be that I just fled?"
Nikolayevich had already made up his mind and said, "With the tower guarding me, I can guarantee the safety of Fredenburg City before the kingdom makes a decision. As for other places..." He didn't say any more, but he didn't say anything. By contrast, other cities should seek their own blessings.
The senior officials of Isaac could only nod helplessly, then frowned and hurried away, giving orders to organize evacuation, at least a few cities closer to Faerun City must be evacuated in advance, otherwise they will be evacuated by the extraordinary army of the other world. If the attack is broken, the casualties will be serious, and he is also to blame. Those **** in Congress will definitely push him out to take the blame.
At the same time, the news of the appearance of a new gate of time and space in the ruins of Faerun has completely spread.
Even the Santa Academy where Green was talking about this matter, which surprised him, and couldn't help but think about it, recalling that the Shadow Red Dragon sensed an ancient white dragon not long ago, he didn't think much at that time, but now he has an idea : "The gate of time and space! Invasion from another world! The ancient white dragon! Could it be that the ancient white dragon wants to enter the real world through the gate of time and space?"
The more Green thought about it, the more likely it was. According to the information provided by Owen and Hader, the time-space gate established by the Church of Nature in the misty world was 500 kilometers away from the cemetery.
The shadow red dragon Arshfaro sensed that the ancient white dragon Angdaragon was going in that direction.
Green couldn't help frowning. If it was the ancient white dragon, the Kingdom of Lorenzo would be in big trouble this time. That is a real natural disaster-level powerful existence. If it is allowed to enter the real world, without the restraint of an extraordinary person of the same level, just an ancient dragon is enough to destroy a country.
Green is not sure if there is a natural disaster grade in the Kingdom of Lorenzo. The strongest person he has seen so far is Nikolayevich. After obtaining divinity, godhead, and divine power, he is promoted to a high-level legend, but only with Nikolayevich, It is absolutely impossible to resist the ancient white dragon, even if it is contained for a moment.
Green thought silently, groping his chin with his hand, and after the initial shock, he began to think about the pros and cons of this incident to himself.
Although he was reborn in the Kingdom of Lorenzo, Green never thought of allegiance to this decadent feudal kingdom, and he did not currently link his own interests with the kingdom's interests. Therefore, it is a catastrophe for the Kingdom of Lorenzo, but not necessarily for him personally, but may be a rare opportunity.
"Maybe we should send someone to the gate of time and space to check the situation." The corners of Green's mouth were raised, and a good idea came to his mind.
A few hours later, in the foggy world.
The shadow red dragon Arshfaro was depressed and flew away from the cemetery with a huge package.
As a giant dragon who has just entered his youth, Arshfaro is not at all willing to visit an ancient giant dragon, especially that it is a great white dragon whose attributes do not match his. But Green had already given his life, and promised him many benefits. He couldn't resist, so he had to take the gift and fly with the breath of the ancient white dragon.
Ceylon Valley, near the gate of time and space, the coalition army composed of human city-states, gnoll tribes, cyclops tribes, lost forests, and dungeon legions are closely passing through the gate of time and space.
At this time, the first coalition forces entering the real world have established temporary camps and built defensive positions to prevent human attacks.
In fact, the coalition forces are more worried at this moment, for fear that they will be crushed by the opposite human army before they can gain a firm foothold and directly destroy the temporary portal, then their losses will be great, not to mention the appearance of the white dragon. The fee can make five of them go bankrupt.
You must know that the ancient white dragons will not travel tens of thousands of kilometers to this hot and uncomfortable place. If they can successfully enter the fertile main world, nothing needs to be said, but if they fall short, they must compensate the great ancient White Dragon. Therefore, whether it is a gnoll shaman or a legendary human mage, they are all confused, for fear that there will be problems and the family will go bankrupt.
However, they did not expect that things were going very smoothly. For some reason, the human kingdom on the other side of the gate of time and space had clearly discovered the coalition forces that had invaded the main world, but their reaction was very slow, neither sending troops to attack nor in-depth investigation. It even made them wonder if there was a conspiracy for a while.
