Fantasy Lords: Starting with the Pioneer Knight

Chapter 118: Kingdom support, strange parchment

 Before the pass.

 The fighting continues to spread.

Time also passed slowly, and the entire defense line became more and more difficult to resist.

 The first day was difficult.

 The next day, after losing two earth knights, they also barely resisted.

But the third day has just arrived.

 The situation took a turn for the worse.

　　First of all, during the battle between Marquis Lehman and a peak-level third-level orc, he was suddenly attacked by a fourth-level orc that suddenly appeared. His figure was almost penetrated, and he fell towards the pass and was severely injured.

 Subsequently, Duke Karenina, who was already having a difficult time facing three fourth-level orcs, added another fourth-level orc.

 A calm voice followed closely.

The burly blond man spoke with a slight smile.

 While he was anxious.

 “Boom!”

One has blond hair and blue eyes, a tall figure, and a full beard. The other has black clothes and black hair, and his figure seems to be hidden in the darkness.

 “Boom!”

 It was immediately in danger.

Duke Karenina’s voice sounded with a smile.

 “Boom!”

 A large number of people were killed.

“You two are indeed a little late!”

 In the battlefield in the sky, two figures appeared at the next moment.

 “If you stay here, we’ll be in big trouble!”

 A large number of orcs in front were covered and passed by.

Duke Karenina's face was ugly, and blood was seeping out of the corners of his mouth in mid-air.

 Magic crystal cannons are spitting out terrifying energy.

 In an instant, the entire defense line fell into a huge wavering.

 “Boom!”

While a fourth-level tauren was flying upside down, the next moment another fourth-level tauren suddenly had blood-red pupils.

 The originally tense mind was completely relaxed at this moment.

“You two, let’s deal with them together. The turmoil in the Northland Province should end!”

 The two nodded, and the next moment they went straight towards the two remaining fourth-level orcs.

"good!"

The man in black spoke.

 “If you don’t come back, I’ll have to stay here!”

 The powerful source of life force burst out suddenly, and the next moment a half-moon shape penetrated the sky and slashed down.

 Facing four fourth-level orcs alone, even if he possesses a secret treasure, he is a little overwhelmed.

 “Sorry, it took a little time!”

Amidst the huge roar, a fourth-level tauren had no time to react, and his figure was directly slashed into the distance by a half-moon-shaped slash.

 It used to be four against one, but now it’s three against two.

What is even more terrifying is that this time the attack on the orc tribe is far greater than any previous one in terms of scale and number.

"how come?"

 “Hahaha, that’s not possible!”

 In just a moment, the two fourth-level orcs were eliminated by three people.

 The figure fell to the ground.

 At the same time, the entire defense line began to falter.

"damn it!"

 The result can be imagined.

 However, more orcs are still coming.

 The sound of a chuckle sounded, and the next moment two streams of light suddenly penetrated into the battlefield in the sky.

“Princess Karenina, it’s not like you to be in such a mess!”

 While high in the sky, the battle quickly came to an end.

Below, figures suddenly inserted into the battlefield.

 The top forces from the kingdom and the three Dukes entered the battlefield.

Even the tribes with several third-level or even fourth-level orcs were quickly suppressed.

The more powerful magic crystal cannon burst out with a more powerful energy pour, and a large number of orcs began to be quickly wiped out.

 There is no resistance at all.

This is so here.

With the Earth Dragon Knights, the battle went more smoothly.

 The most elite forces of the Tulip Court arrived.

Even three sky knights and dozens of earth knights arrived instantly.

Even though the Earth Dragon Knights suffered a greater impact here, under the suppression of the five Sky Knights, the entire impact quickly subsided.

 A large number of orcs were strangled in a matter of seconds.

  The second day.

 When the morning sun shines.

 A new day has arrived.

 At the defense line of the Earth Dragon Knights and the Flying Eagle Knights, there are no longer any orc tribes.

 The entire defense line was densely packed with corpses of orcs.

 The bright red blood soaked everything here in red.

 At this time, the kingdom showed its true strength.

 After the war subsides, it is natural to clean up the battlefield, clean up the mess, and at the same time stabilize and repair the entire defense line.

 The next few days.

Although there were once again attacks from many orc tribes, with the second batch of support from the kingdom, these attacks were just food deliveries and did not cause much movement.

 It's just that the whole turmoil has calmed down.

 But the issue of the Northland province still needs to be resolved.

“Tell me, what should I do next?”

In the conference room at the pass, three dukes and ten marquises gathered together. Duke Karenina spoke first and looked at everyone.

"Three Dukes, the defense line of the Northland Province is indeed stable now, but there are still many orc tribes entering the Northland Province. I request that people be sent to clear them out."

Marquis Lehman had already woken up at this moment, but his breath was a little weak, but even so, he was the first to stand up and speak.

"Indeed, the northern part of the Northland Province is completely in chaos now and must be cleaned up!"

"Let's do this, Marquis Leman, as well as Count Shermi, Count Enchel, and Count Bonatou, you guys will lead the knights to the Northland Province to clean up."

 The three Dukes looked at each other and then made a decision. Duke Karenina spoke and immediately gave instructions.

"yes!"

A few people looked at each other and then nodded in agreement.

 There is no doubt about this.

“In addition, now you can go find out what’s going on with those orc tribes!”

“Why the sudden attack on the kingdom’s defense line? It’s obviously not an orc war at this moment.”

After several people responded, Duke Karenina immediately issued another order.

"yes!"

 The remaining nobles responded quickly.

This time the orc attack was obviously a little unusual.

 Although there have been situations more serious than this one before.

 But this time is a little different from before.

These orc tribes are not too powerful. Usually, under such a large-scale impact, there are already fifth-level orc tribes involved. What followed was the Orc War.

 But this time there is no such thing, and so far there has been no fifth-level orc tribe. The most powerful ones are only fourth-level, and most are even low-level orc tribes such as second-level and third-level.

This is very strange. Without the driver of high-level orc tribes, these low-level orc tribes will not attack the human defense line and are so crazy.

 There is something unusual about all this.

 I just didn’t have the time or energy to care about this before.

Now with the support of the kingdom, the entire defense line is, at least for now, stable.

 In this case, it is natural to investigate what is going on.

 Then everyone discussed some matters again.

 For example, defensive deployment.

 And how to deal with the next wave of orc onslaught.

 The meeting was dissolved.

 The meeting came to an end, and each noble began to take action.

 First of all, Marquis Lehman and several other counts began to clear the entire surrounding area starting from the defense line.

 Subsequently, a large number of manpower began to deploy and investigate.

 Time passes slowly.

Marquis Lehman's group was undoubtedly eliminated very smoothly. Even if they lost a lot of power in the past time, the orc tribes that may be able to enter the Northland Province are generally not strong, so they naturally cannot resist them.

 Our own defense line, with the support of the kingdom, was quickly replenished.

 The only problem is that I don’t have much clue about the inquiry situation in a short period of time.

Of course everyone is not in a hurry.

 Always discover something.

As long as there are no major problems, the kingdom's defense line is considered stable.

As for the big problem, it is naturally impossible to arise without Beamon and other fifth-level orc tribes participating in the war.

 When the kingdom’s support arrived.

  Deep in the orc territory.

 In the crypt.

 The **** aura filled the entire crypt at some point.

 There were bloodthirsty werewolves in the crypt, and their eyes had already turned completely blood red.

 The blood lines spread from their heads and converged on the huge altar in the center.

At this moment, if someone can follow the blood line and spread it away, they will be able to find that this blood line has not only spread to the entire orc tribe, but has even spread to nearby human territories.

 A large number of orcs died, as well as the death of human knights.

The blood is soaked in the ground and spreading towards here at the same time.

 It’s just that no one noticed this change at this moment.

 “That’s it, and more!”

 “Hurry, hurry!”

 “Great Anubis, you will come to earth again!”

 In the altar, the bloodthirsty werewolf leader whose hair gradually turned into blood red looked fanatical and excited.

However, at this moment, at a defensive line in the south, the blood-colored aura that was constantly gathering suddenly stagnated, and then an even larger amount of blood-colored aura surged forward.

 Just for a moment.

 The blood color suddenly became thinner.

"what happened?"

The bloodthirsty werewolf leader's original enthusiastic expression instantly turned into anger.

“Chief, from the Tulip Kingdom, support has arrived, but the Apostle God Church did not stop them.”

 A bloodthirsty werewolf spoke quickly.

 “Trash!”

 “Are those guys stupid?”

The bloodthirsty werewolf's pupils were filled with anger, and a terrifying aura burst out.

 A whirlwind was set off directly in the crypt.

 The huge sense of oppression directly caused the bloodthirsty werewolf to crawl on the ground, his body trembling.

“Go, inform me of Val and let him lead his people to attack the Tulip Kingdom!”

 “Tell him that God Anubis needs more service!”

 “Also, if you spread things among those **** tribes, they should also be interested.”

　　A hoarse voice came out of the mouth of the bloodthirsty werewolf.

 One after another arrangements were made.

 Soon, a famous werewolf began to act quickly.

At this moment, neither the Tulip Kingdom’s defense line nor other entities noticed this strangeness.

 After all, the bloodthirsty werewolves are already in the deepest part of the orc territory.

 That is a place that is difficult for humans to reach.

 Of course it is out of reach.

But soon the Tulip Kingdom discovered something.

 For example, that strange parchment scroll.

 It is first obtained from the list of items collected on the battlefield during the inquiry.

 Subsequently, Marquis Lehman and his companions also obtained some during the purge.

 “This is Titanic!”

Looking at the identical parchment, the three dukes couldn't help but raise their brows, with a look of surprise on their expressions.

“You two, can you understand what these are?”

Duke Karenina looked at the other two people present and spoke in a deep voice.

"The Titan script can only be deciphered by orcs. It is difficult for humans to decipher it. Send it back to the capital."

The blond man with beard frowned and spoke.

“Indeed, except for a few people, only the royal capital can interpret this thing!”

The man in black also nodded, agreeing with the blond man's words.

At least some people can understand the orc language. If you want to decipher the Titan text, you must either be an orc or a specialized linguist.

 They won’t.

 Duke Karenina nodded and agreed with the two people's ideas.

Just looking at these scrolls, he felt worried in his heart.

 For some reason, he had a feeling that this huge impact was probably related to this kind of parchment.

However, there is no way to know the content now, and he has no way to determine his thoughts.

 Soon several rolls of parchment were sent to the royal capital.

 And the defense line continues to be stable.

 Time passes quickly.

 In the next ten days, although there were still landings, orcs continued to attack.

 But under the absolute power of the Tulip Kingdom, it was still easily suppressed.

 Just when it was being collected, the three dukes couldn't help but feel something unusual.

 Because they once again harvested quite a few parchment rolls.

 At the same time, other people also began to notice this strangeness.

When they first harvested the parchments, these nobles began to hide them, thinking they were treasure maps. But as the number increased, even fools felt that this was unusual.

 As a result, more and more parchments appeared in front of the three dukes.

 From one part, to three parts, to ten parts.

 To twenty portions.

In just ten days, they harvested more than twenty portions.

 Hands of almost every orc tribe.

 Whether it is a second-level orc tribe, a third-level or even a fourth-level tribe, it is the same.
