Only at this moment did Nadal truly feel the Pope's majesty and inviolability. He seemed to have forgotten that the Pope had been a genius among his peers since childhood. The Pope had always greeted him with a smile over the years. Everyone, including Nadal, had forgotten that His Majesty the Pope was a fifth-level powerhouse as early as ten years ago.

"Your Majesty, please spare my life. Your Majesty, please spare my life."

Nadal finally realized that he had angered the Pope, who had the power of life and death over him. Although the Pope had been good to him over the years, he was after all the Pope's attendant. In other words, a attendant was a slave.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Your Majesty, please calm down."

Torresnia and Hyde also stepped forward to plead for Nadal. They were also shocked by the strength of His Holiness the Pope. The Pope had not taken action for many years, and they only thought that the Pope was a kind and amiable young man.

After hearing what the others said, the Pope finally calmed down. A smile slowly appeared on his face, and the pressure was also withdrawn into his body.

"I'm a little irritable. Let's put this matter on Torreskia. You go and handle it. This pig-headed man can get the approval of the three demon kings, so I think his character must not be too bad. This time you go to the new city in person to negotiate with the pig-headed man Zhu Laoba. If he agrees to join my Temple of Light and let us set up branches in these two cities, I can agree to some of his conditions."

"Your Holiness, I wonder what conditions you are referring to? Oh! Don't misunderstand the orcs. Orcs have always been more concerned about interests. If we cannot state the benefits we can provide, it is very likely that the other party will not agree to join the Temple of Light."

Torresnia also did not hide anything and directly expressed his thoughts.

"Well, how about this, we can hand over all the shop owners of the Temple of Light in a city to him," the Pope said after thinking for a while.

"If that's the case, I can go and talk about it." The position of a city's palace master is already very high. Torresnia thought that the pig-headed man would probably be satisfied with such conditions.

The Pope's words shocked Nadal, who was kneeling on the ground. He was about to step forward to speak, but when he felt the Pope's gaze, he knelt down silently again.

"Okay, you guys go down and rest, and then prepare for this."

"His Royal Highness the Pope"

Torresnia and Hyde left the hall and returned to Hyde's residence in the Temple of Light.

At this time, the border between the Dragon Power Empire and the Dwarf Empire and the Holy Empire was already filled with shouts of killing. A large number of magic crystal cannons of the Dwarf Empire were constantly bombarding the solid walls of the Dragon Power Empire. Waves of magic were rippling above the walls. The magic crystal cannons could not cause much damage to the walls because the walls were covered with defensive magic arrays. As long as there was sufficient energy supply, the magic crystal cannons would not easily destroy such large defensive magic arrays.

Kaidri's scalp tingled as he looked at the thousands of magic crystal cannons neatly arranged below. He did not expect that the force used by the dwarves this time was so powerful and their determination was so resolute.

Although the magic crystal cannon cannot destroy the city walls, it still has a certain lethality to the soldiers guarding the walls. Once it hits the upper part of the wall, the magic crystal cannon will produce a violent explosion, and the soldiers without magic circles on their bodies will suffer. So at this time, all the soldiers hide behind the wall to reduce their casualties.

The magic crystal cannon, which had been bombarding for three hours, finally stopped.

The number of magic crystals consumed by both sides is almost the same. The magic crystal cannon consumes magic crystals, and the defense array also consumes magic crystals. In the battle where the two cancel each other out, victory still depends on the fight between the warriors of both sides.

After the cannon fire stopped, the fully armored dwarf warriors rushed towards the city wall where the Longwei Empire was stationed with all their strength. After hearing the shouts and screams, all the Longwei Empire soldiers stood up from behind the battlements, holding their spears and waiting for the enemy to rush into the city wall to launch an attack. The archers who heard the shouts and screams of the Dwarf Empire also quickly rushed up the city wall from under the city wall, found their own battlements, and continuously shot armor-piercing arrows at the bottom of the city wall.

Although the dwarf warriors were wearing armor, they still suffered casualties when faced with armor-piercing arrows.

However, the dwarf warriors ignored all this and continued to attack.

I saw a soldier from the Dwarf Empire constantly beating a war drum on a large engineering machine. The drum sounded loud, and every beat inspired the Warcraft below to pull the siege ladder forward. The Warcraft's muscles bulged and pushed the siege ladder forward with all its might.

The side of the siege ladder facing away from the city wall looks like a staircase, and is divided into several levels. It becomes narrower as it goes up. The inside is a staircase that continues to climb upwards, and the outside is made of nailed wood.

The front is protected by huge logs. Once the siege ladder is placed on the city wall, soldiers will continue to climb up the city wall through the siege ladder and fight with the enemy.

There were no less than 20 such siege ladders on the battlefield, distributed everywhere on the battlefield.

"Someone, aim the magic crystal cannon at those siege ladders and fire them hard."

When Kadder saw the siege ladders approaching step by step, he became very nervous. If the siege ladders were allowed to get closer, the defense of the city wall would face a huge crisis.

Not only do the dwarves have magic crystal cannons, but there are also magic crystal cannons on the city walls here.

Kaidri's order was given, and the magic crystal cannons were lifted out from the protected trench one by one, and then placed on the gun carriage. After taking aim, the mage activated the magic circle and with a bang, the burning magic crystal bullet flew out. The magic crystal bullet, with the magic circle on the warhead, would produce a violent explosion once it was hit.

The magic crystal shell drew a graceful arc and hit a siege ladder directly, with a loud bang. Most of the entire project was blown up, which was enough to show the power of the magic crystal shell.

Dozens of missiles had just been fired from the city wall, but only this one hit the target. A few more were blocked in the sky by the dwarf magicians using various spells. No dwarf soldiers were injured.

Although a siege ladder was destroyed, no dwarf soldier cared about it and continued to help the Warcraft push the siege ladder in an effort to quickly reach the city wall. After attacking the wall, the dwarves' advantage became obvious.

"Boom boom boom boom boom" Most of the magic crystal bombs did not hit the siege ladders. The reason was that a large number of ordinary magicians below could detonate the magic crystal bombs in the air. As long as the magic hit the magic crystal bomb's projectile, the magic crystal bomb would produce a violent explosion.

Kaiderry was nervous when he saw that the magic crystal cannon was not very effective. If the soldiers of the Dwarf Empire were allowed to attack, his defense line would definitely not be able to hold.

The armor and combat capability of his soldiers were definitely not as strong as those of the dwarves. This was because the empire allocated less and less money to the border troops each year, and the army's weapons and equipment had not been updated for many years. Obviously, they could not compare with the powerful dwarves. If the key to this battle was to prevent the dwarves from attacking the city walls, the soldiers on the walls would definitely lose confidence and might even run away. Therefore, Kaidry looked back at the four magicians standing behind him.

"My dear magicians, I think you need to take action. This construction vehicle poses too great a threat to us."

The four magicians standing behind Kaedri are members of the Imperial Royal Magician Corps, a magician corps specially prepared for war. Every year, the country provides a large amount of funds for magicians to learn and research magic. At critical moments, the magician corps must also help the country to defeat the enemy. This is also the result of both sides getting what they need.

"Your Excellency Prince William, of course we can't just take the empire's tribute for nothing every year."

The leading magician spoke to Kaedri with some respect.

"Then we'll have to trouble you, my Lord Magicians."

Several magicians took a few steps forward and uttered complicated spells. Their staffs lit up slightly and each of them shot out a ray of light. The light shot by the first magician gathered into a huge fireball in the sky. The fireball instantly formed in the sky and smashed into one of the siege ladders. The siege ladder was large and bulky, and there was no defensive formation. If there was no external assistance, then this fireball would be enough to burn the ladder to ashes.

The magicians of the Dwarf Empire naturally would not see this situation coming. At the moment the fireball was formed, a huge water snake was also formed on the opposite side. The fireball hit the siege vehicle, and the water snake also hit the fireball directly. Before the fireball was about to hit the siege ladder, the water snake had reached the battlefield. The water snake directly crashed into the fireball, and then a thick water vapor swirled in the fireball, and the fireball was instantly extinguished by the water snake.

"The opponent sent out quite a few magicians this time, and their levels are not too low."

The magician who cast the fireball did not make much of a fuss, but spoke lightly.

The magic in the hands of the other three magicians were also formed and hit their targets. A huge ice cone pierced the engineering vehicle, and the earth magician on the ground released a huge earth shield to block the engineering vehicle. The ice cone hit the shield, and the shield only trembled slightly, but the ice mouth was smashed to pieces and fell to the ground.

The third magician released a thunderbolt, which struck the siege ladder like lightning, and a layer of green gas quickly lingered around the siege ladder. Then a vine like a spirit snake sprang out from the ground and entangled the lightning. All the electricity of the lightning was conducted into the ground by the vine and did not cause any damage to the siege ladder.

The fourth magician released an earth magic, which was much better than the previous ones and was hard to defend against because of its suddenness.

At the foot of a siege ladder, more than a dozen earth walls rose from the ground. The originally wooden siege ladder was directly overturned to the ground. The siege ladder that hit the ground immediately disintegrated and could not be restored to its original state for a while.

Only the last of the four magic attacks achieved the desired effect, but what followed was a lightsaber from under the city wall, shooting towards the magician who was using earth magic. The lightsaber was like a crossbow with immense power, piercing the defense shield in front of the magician with a bang, and the defense shield was cracked, but it did not break. The magician who attacked was no higher than the magician next to Kaidri. If it was a high-level attack, the magic defense shield would definitely break with one strike.

The earth magician smiled and waved his staff again. One after another, earth walls appeared under the siege ladders. Siege vehicles were overturned one after another. The dwarf magicians below could only watch the scene. They had no time to react.

At this time, the other three magicians were already standing beside the earth magician to protect him. As long as the magician below made a move, they would defend and block him. For a while, they couldn't do anything to the earth magician. The siege ladders were overturned one after another, and many of the dwarves following behind were also crushed to death.

At this moment, the sound of a horn came from behind the dwarf team, and all the dwarf troops retreated. This wave of attack ended here, and the entire city wall was filled with cheers, but Kaedli's face was still serious. The war had just begun, and the dwarves would not give up attacking the Dragon Empire because of a setback.

After several days of consideration in the Longwei Imperial Palace, Kaidewei finally made up his mind. If he did not make up his mind, then his imperial throne might really be in danger.

Ordering the major lords to send their armies to defend the border did not have much effect. Only a few lords close to the border sent troops to assist in border transportation and some logistical matters. No lord brought his private soldiers to the front line to fight the enemy.

"Pass my order and call the commander of the Royal Guard." After careful consideration, Kadewei finally decided to send his Royal Guards to support the border. He did not want to become a king of a fallen country. Beauties, wealth and delicacies were waiting for him.

The Royal Guards were under the jurisdiction of Kedewei alone, so he did not summon other ministers. Kedewei was also responsible for all the expenses of the Royal Guards' expedition, so this time he only summoned the commander of the Royal Guards and did not summon others.

"Commander of the Imperial Guard, Long Rui pays respect to Your Majesty. May Your Majesty be blessed with good health and long life."

Long Rui came to the main hall and knelt down to pay homage to Kaidewei.

"Long Rui, I called you here this time to do something important. You also know the situation on the empire's border. After careful consideration, I decided to send 80,000 guards to the border to consolidate the border defense. What do you think?"

Kaidewei expressed his thoughts directly without any hesitation.

"Protecting national peace is my duty. As long as Your Majesty gives the order, I will set off immediately to the border to fight against the hateful Dwarf Empire and the Holy Alliance."

Long Rui didn't dare to disobey Katewei at all, because with just one word from Katewei, he would lose the title of leader of the Royal Guards.

"Well, then gather the troops immediately and set off to the border right away."

Kaidewei was very happy when he heard Long Rui's words. If Long Rui was sent out, there would only be 20,000 guards left in the capital of Longwei Empire.

Kaidwei also felt that these 20,000 guards were enough to protect his own safety.
