king.

Chapter 745 Aftermath
The elves became ruthless and the war became more and more intense.

"Rumble..."

Dozens of elf sanctuaries attacked together, and after a huge explosion, the capital's defense line that the Hessians had built for many years collapsed.

The sudden attack confused the human sanctuary in the city.

"Damn the elves, they're not going to follow the rules!"

After a curse, everyone immediately realized the danger.

Perhaps the human race has as many powerful warriors as the elves, but we have to look at the specific situation on the local battlefield.

What was happening before our eyes was obviously caused by the elves drawing strong men from the rear.

"Stop talking nonsense. The fall of the capital is inevitable. Take the kingdom's leaders and evacuate immediately.

We will report today's account to the Alliance, and we will settle accounts with the elves in the future!"

As soon as the powerful Sanctuary Master of the Worship Group finished speaking, everyone realized something was wrong. Their aura was locked by the enemy.

Releasing their aura to intimidate each other was originally a tacit understanding among the strong men in the Holy Land, but now it has become their death warrant.

"Spread out and run!"

In an instant, everyone disappeared from the spot. When disaster struck, everyone fled. At this moment, no one cared about others.

Everyone reacted very quickly, but the enemy was well prepared.

Just after running a few miles, they were blocked by the enemy and a battle broke out directly in the sky.

……

Emerald Palace.

Hudson, who was attending the meeting, looked at the battle report in his hand and his first reaction was: Impossible!

Then I thought the elves were crazy!
The rules of the game have been broken. Humans can afford to die, but can the elves afford to die?

After the shock, Hudson quickly calmed down.

He had seen many storms and waves, but this was the first time he had encountered such a big one.

“The Hessen capital fell, seven of the nine garrisoned saints died, and Alexander V was killed in battle.

The defense line centered on the Black Forest Capital collapsed, and the human troops deployed along the line suffered heavy losses. Two-thirds of the troops sent by the Kingdom of Light to support were lost.

Judging from the current situation, the collapse of the Hesse Kingdom has become a foregone conclusion.

Marshal, what do you think the enemy will do next? "

Caesar IV asked with forced calmness.

The war in the Kingdom of Hesse frightened many powerful people.

The madness displayed by the elves refreshed everyone's inherent perception of this race.

"Your Majesty, the elves have run out of tricks.

Conventional warfare has been unable to make a breakthrough, and when they were forced into a corner, they chose to break the rules in an attempt to scare us in this way.

The defense lines of each country are built in a conventional way. Even the strongest city defense can only withstand the attack of more than ten strong men from the Holy Domain.

There were as many as fifty or sixty elves from the Holy Land who attacked the Black Forest King. With so many strong men joining forces, the combat power that could be unleashed was enough to move mountains and overturn seas.

If nothing unexpected happens, the war situation in the entire Central Continent will soon collapse.

Wait for the decision of the Human Alliance!

Unless all the countries in the southern continent send out their strong men, it will be difficult for us to overwhelm the enemy with high-end power!"

Hudson replied rationally.

The human race does not lack top powerhouses, but these powerhouses are scattered among multiple forces.

Since the outbreak of the continental war, apart from the sanctuaries of the Central Continent and the Northern Continent, only the permanent sanctuaries of the Alliance Worship Group have arrived at the battlefield.

Most of the powerful saints in the countries of the southern continent are still staying at home.

The most fundamental reason why the elves dared to overturn the table was that the strong men of the human race were scattered and could not be gathered in a short period of time.

Now, every one you can kill counts as one, and anyone killed at this time is considered a gain.

It's essentially a gamble.

If we can frighten the human race and make them agree to negotiate with them, we will win the gamble.

Even if things go wrong, the situation won't be any worse than it is now.

The worst that could happen is a concentrated fight between the two races' strongest men. Before the fight, it is still unknown who is stronger and who is weaker.

We have never played like this before, mainly because in this kind of peak match, regardless of winning or losing, the elves are the losers strategically.

Their strength is accumulated over a long period of time, while the strength of the human race comes from a large enough racial base.

After the ultimate showdown that was devastating to both sides, the human race would be able to recover after a hundred or eighty years, but the fate of the elves was to continue to decline until their extinction.

If the elves had not been forced into a corner, they would not have fought so desperately.

In fact, before the outbreak of the Continental War, no one expected the situation to develop to this point.

The strategic goal of the kingdom is to destroy the Orc Empire, and other alien races are not within the scope of attack.

According to the initial deduction, the alien alliance suffered heavy losses and the elves were barely surviving.

Unfortunately, the plan did not change quickly enough. The Alpha Kingdom advanced too smoothly on the battlefield and suddenly overwhelmed the Frankish Empire and the Iberian Kingdom.

In order to maintain their position in the league, both teams must have impressive results.

The situation got completely out of control.

Seeing their allies perishing one by one, the elves were pushed to the edge of the cliff.

There is no way to retreat, so we can only fight with all our might.

“There’s no way the alliance will give in!

The elves wanted to use the three kingdoms of Central Continent as an example to scare the monkeys, but they made a wrong calculation.

The five major kingdoms in the southern continent are increasingly calling for war, and without an outstanding record, they will not be able to end the war.

The kingdom cannot compromise with the elves at this time!

The power of the Human Alliance to constrain other countries is declining rapidly. If the elves are not dealt with now, the difficulty of involving the countries of the southern continent when the next war breaks out will increase by more than ten times.

Even if we want to negotiate, we must do so after severely damaging the elves."

Prime Minister Duke Beckett was the first to speak out.

The stronger the elves show, the more the Alpha Kingdom will have to fight this war.

This is determined by geopolitics!
After defeating the orcs, the greatest alien race posing a threat to the kingdom is the elves.

If we don't solve the problem while all the human countries are on the chariot, the future will be trouble for our own family.

"Prime Minister, the elves are clearly ready to fight to the death. Can we really fight them?

There are not so many powerful saints in the kingdom.

Even if all the strong men in the entire Five-Nation Alliance were added together, they probably wouldn’t even have one-third of the strength of the elves.

Judging from the image on the photo stone, most of the elf sanctuaries that took action were second-level sanctuaries, and this was only part of the elves' wealth.

The two races' strongest men will engage in a decisive battle, and hundreds of Sanctuary masters will fall.

Even if the rulers of each country want to fight, they don’t have the ability to get all the powerful Saint Domain masters in their country to join the war! "

Finance Minister Marquis Zuer vetoed.

The status of the strong in the Holy Land is special. The newly born Holy Land is closely connected with the governments of various countries. Those old guys who have been practicing for hundreds of years are no longer bound by the governments of various countries.

Normally, if you want to invite these people to take action, you have to exchange interests. It is too difficult to ask them to fight the enemy desperately.

"Don't worry, most of the Saint Domain masters in the clan will participate in this war!
Because the elves have the information that everyone wants.

Whether it was the news of the ten thousand year catastrophe or the path to godhood, they were first spread by the elves.

As the oldest race on the continent, they have mastered too many secrets of the continent, and this knowledge is exactly what we want."

Hudson said calmly.

The elves' layout is so ingenious that it is almost impossible to find any clues.

Unfortunately, many things do not require evidence, just believing it is enough.

There are not many things that the strong men in the Holy Land would care about, but the elves happen to have them, and quite a lot of them.

In addition to some secret knowledge, the mysterious water of life, the legendary elf mother tree...

I don’t know whether these treasures can make people become gods, but at least they can make people live another 100 or 200 years.

Not to mention those antiques, even a young master like Hudson is very interested in these things.

If the elves were not strong enough, everyone would have gone to rob them long ago.

"Marshal, if the elves target their attack on the kingdom, can we handle it?"

Caesar IV asked with concern.

He doesn't care about any secret treasures. The strong men from the holy realms across the continent are competing for it, and as a king, he can only get a little bit of soup at most.

He had to consider the elves' final counterattack.

“Can’t stop it!

Our troop deployment speed is definitely not as fast as the enemy's.

The elven magician corps is the best in the continent. If they work together, no matter how strong the city is, it will be nothing but paper in front of them.

But they can kill our people, and we can fight back in the same way.

I guess the elf army is in trouble now.

The surviving members of the Hessen Sanctuary are all lone wolves, waiting for them to reveal their weaknesses.

First, we will gather all the powerful men from the sanctuary in the kingdom. Once the elves attack us, we will attack them from behind and massacre them.

The Ministry of External Affairs will find an opportunity to leak this plan to the elves. I don't think they want to exchange with us!"

Hudson's answer made everyone shudder.

The strong men in the Holy Land all play this way, which makes everyone feel insecure.

No matter how strict the security measures are, they will become vulnerable when facing groups of powerful sanctuary masters.

……

Almost at the same time, the rulers of the countries in the southern continent who received the news were also shocked.

Royal Palace of Lutetia.

"How do all countries react to the elves' actions?"

Charles III asked with concern.

It can be seen that the generosity of the elves also had a great impact on him.

The number of powerful sanctuaries dispatched by the elves in the attack and defense of the Hessen capital has caught up with the total number of powerful sanctuaries in the Frankish Empire.

This means that the enemy can also replicate the same method on them.

After all, it is impossible for all the strong men in the empire to gather together.

“The Five Nations Alliance jointly proposed to the Human Alliance, hoping that the Alliance could recruit the strong men of the entire human race to join the war and completely destroy the elves.

The reactions of the countries in the southern continent were mixed, some chose to support it while others expressed opposition.

However, on the issue of revenge against the elves, all parties have a very unified stance, and everyone agrees to teach the elves a lesson! "

Foreign Minister Marquis Jesus answered slowly.

Revenge is necessary. There is no overlord in this world who will swallow his anger.

The specific extent of the revenge requires careful consideration.

Everyone is still very wary of the elves' accumulated wealth.

For example, if any human country encounters the enemy's counterattack this time, it will suffer heavy losses.

It's just that it's a strong country with thick blood, so its end will not be as tragic as that of the Hesse Kingdom.

“Things are getting troublesome!

The situation has developed to this point and the empire has no better choice.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a public announcement: We will make the elves pay for their blood debt with blood!"

It can be seen that Charles III was not so reluctant to make this decision.

But there is no way, an empire must have the empire's hegemony.

The Empire's army that reinforced the Hesse Kingdom was immediately wiped out.

If he, as the emperor, does not show any expression, what can he use to communicate with domestic and foreign friends?
For this new empire, the war must continue regardless of whether it is in the interests of the empire.

Specific strategies can be discussed slowly, but political slogans must be shouted out as soon as possible.

In fact, it is a little late to make a political statement now.

The best option would be to hold a high-level meeting immediately upon receiving the news and make a strong political statement.

……

After the governments of various countries made their political statements, the decision of the Human Alliance was quickly made.

Recruitment orders were sent from the alliance to all parts of the continent. As long as they were not completely reclusive human sanctuary experts, they were all recruited.

Baili Corridor, inside the tavern.

"Guna, listen up. War is not something a child like you should participate in!"

The white-haired old man persuaded helplessly.

It’s intoxicating to think about it. The granddaughter raised by the Skeleton Saint actually wants to fight for the cause of human race.

If he had known this would happen, he would not have stayed in the Alpha Kingdom.

The warlike atmosphere of the whole country directly affected the younger generation. Under the influence of her playmates, Guna's temperament also changed.

"But Grandpa, I have received a call for the Holy Land from the Human Alliance!"

Guna said innocently.

Although she is not young anymore, time has not left any traces on her face.

"When did you reveal your strength?"

The old man asked in surprise.

They have been living in seclusion here in recent years. While the mainland is in chaos, the Hundred Mile Corridor has become more and more prosperous.

Countless refugees from the Central and Greater Continents entered the Alpha Kingdom with their families, turning the former small town into a city.

“When I first broke through the Saint Realm, several Saint Realm experts from the kingdom came to visit me.

I knew that grandpa was afraid of trouble, so I found an excuse to send them away. "

After hearing this answer, the Skeleton Lord understood instantly.

No wonder my own tavern is doing so well.

Even if someone comes to cause trouble, the sheriff will come immediately to deal with it.

I thought this was the money bag of the nobles in the southeastern province and the local security environment was good.

Looking at it now, this good day was obviously given by someone, who knew that a powerful person from the Holy Land was living in seclusion here.

"What happens if you refuse to be called up?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man realized that he had said something wrong.

While the strong enjoy rights, they must also assume corresponding obligations.

A war involving the fate of the race cannot be easily evaded.

It would be fine if you didn’t receive the notification, but if you refuse the invitation after receiving it, then you have no chance to stay in the Sanctuary circle.

“Don’t worry, Grandpa. We are led by Marshal Hudson in this battle.

There are so many powerful alien warriors who have died at his hands, it won't be dangerous to follow him!"

Hearing this familiar name, the old man's soul trembled.
