Chapter 155 War Order, Firm Will to Overcome All Troubles
April 20, 14525 in the Star Boundary Calendar.
The Theocracy of Winter Frost launched an all-out attack on White Ice City. Ms. Winter Frost's avatar came and led the three divine envoys to fight against the two congressmen stationed in White Ice City.
The two sides fought in the Longyan Mountains, more than 300 kilometers outside Baibing City.
In the end, two of the three great envoys died in the battle, and Ms. Dongshuang's clone died.
One of the current members of the Dawn Council, Meng Hong, the head of the Meng family, died in the battle.
Yi Nan, one of the current members of the Dawn Council and the deputy leader of the Silver Light Legion, was seriously injured and fled.
On the same day, one of the five divine envoys under Ms. Winter Frost, the Extreme Ice Giant Yannik, led his army to break through the White Ice City, blockade the spatial coordinates, and start a fierce battle with the defending army.
In just half a day, the defending army was defeated and Baibing City completely fell.
The free wizards suffered heavy casualties and fled to Red Maple City.
Also on the same day, the Turin army led by the two great dukes, Snow Wolf and Blue Ice, began to advance against Red Maple City.
The war is about to break out!
Red maple city.
There were only a few people walking on the street. Occasionally someone passed by, but they were all in a hurry and looked solemn.
Phew!
From time to time, groups of giant eagle knights passed by in the sky, flying towards the outside of the city.
The entire Red Maple City was filled with a solemn atmosphere.
Pei Ze walked on the street and looked at the scene around him, with a flash of emotion in his eyes.
Since the fall of White Ice City seven days ago, and the Turin army pressed down on the border and arrived at Red Maple City, the entire war fortress has become what it is now.
In order to avoid the war, many free wizards have left the plane battlefield.
The remaining free wizards did not dare to go out to perform tasks anymore and huddled in the city.
Pei Ze is naturally no exception.
Nowadays, the wilderness outside the city is like a beast's mouth devouring flesh and blood. If you are not careful, you will be eaten until all the bones are left. Except for a few bold young people who are not afraid of death, few people dare to risk being killed by Turin. The risk of military siege goes out.
Today's battlefield has become a stage for the military.
While thinking about it, Pei Ze had already arrived in front of a stone house.
Before he could knock on the door, the door opened automatically.
Pei Ze pushed open the door and walked in. He saw Yin Xue standing in front of the entrance, looking at him with a smile.
"Senior sister." Pei Ze looked her up and down and smiled, "I'm relieved to see you are recovering well."
Yin Xue flashed a touch of tenderness in her eyes and said softly: "I heard what Yin Guang said , it’s all thanks to your help this time that I was able to recover so quickly.”
“Forget being polite, hasn’t Senior Sister helped me many times before?” Pei Ze waved his hand and said.
Yin Xue pursed her lips and smiled, pulling Pei Ze to the living room and sitting down.
After sitting down, Pei Ze was not polite and asked directly: "Senior, have you heard about the fall of Baibing City?"
Almost no one in the entire Red Maple City knew about such a big event, and Yin Xue was no exception.
She understood what Pei Ze really wanted to ask about, pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "Information from the family showed that the Meng family suffered heavy losses this time. Almost all the family's top leaders were wiped out, and all the backbone combatants were also killed. More than 80%, and we haven't been able to get the Silver Frost Calamity Wolf yet. After this incident, the Meng family will probably be completely destroyed."
Yin Xue looked sad.
As one of the five major wizarding families in Dawn City, the Meng family is extremely powerful, and the head of the family, Meng Hong, is one of the top five members of the Dawn Council.
Who would have thought that in just one battle, almost half of the Meng family's wizard strength would be wiped out, directly leading to the family's downfall.
And after what happened this time, it is unlikely that the Meng family will be able to regain its previous glory in the future.
The huge profits created by the collapse of a wizard family are enough to make many people jealous, and they will never give the original owner a chance to get back this profit.
Not to mention the elemental factions, even the Pei family and Yan family from the same faction would never want to see such a thing happen.
"One wrong step will lead to an abyss."
Pei Ze also sighed with emotion.
The Meng family bet the fate of the entire family in order to obtain the Silver Frost Calamity Wolf.
Unfortunately they still lost.
All I can say is bad luck.
"But the sacrifice of the Meng family is not useless."
Yin Xue stretched out her hand across the coffee table, and there were two steaming cups of black tea on the table.
She picked up the cup and took a sip, and then continued:
"Although the Dongshuang Sect destroyed Baibing City, it also paid a huge price. Ms. Dongshuang's clone died, and the main body must have suffered a lot of backlash. I'm afraid it will be a long time in the future. None of them can take action."
"As for her five great envoys, one of them died at the hands of Councilor Ji Zhang before. Now two more have died, leaving only two. Their power is no longer what it used to be." "Don't look at it now
. Only Red Maple City is left to face the Winter Frost Theocracy army alone, but in fact the enemy is also greatly weakened. Even if a war does break out, we don't have to worry about losing." "The real thing to worry about
is the Winter Frost Theocracy. They are already poor. With the efforts of the whole country, Red Maple City can still get a steady stream of support from Dawn City and Red Lotus City. If we delay, and more resources and troops enter Red Maple City, the balance of victory and defeat will only gradually tilt towards our side. "
Pei Ze nodded clearly.
It's good to have a friend who comes from a wizarding family. He can know a lot of information that ordinary wizards cannot know.
"So, senior sister plans to stay in Red Maple City?"
Yin Xue nodded slightly: "I am a member of the witch hunting force. It is my duty to fight the Turin people. I will definitely stay.
" Here, she paused slightly, looked at Pei Ze, and asked hesitantly: "What about you? What are your plans?"
Pei Ze looked thoughtful.
As early as the Turin army was approaching, Red Maple City had already issued a war order, calling on all free wizards to participate in the war and kill the Turin people.
In return, free wizards participating in the war can receive the same treatment as military wizards - consistent calculation of military merits, and more importantly, consistent resource exchange.
In other words, many rare resources that were originally only allowed to be redeemed by military wizards and were not open to the public can now be redeemed by free wizards as long as they participate in the war.
As soon as this article came out, it really attracted many free wizards.
To be honest, Pei Ze was actually a little moved.
At his spiritual level, whether it is resonance potion or Holy Spirit bud, the effect on his spiritual growth is no longer as good as before.
And it can be foreseen that after reaching the level two wizard, the effect will inevitably be further weakened.
By then, his spiritual growth rate will probably be very slow.
——Despite the secret technique of visualization, his mental power has grown much faster than most wizards.
Of course, it is very simple to change this situation, just exchange for more resources to enhance your mental power.
However, now the way to go out to perform missions has been blocked. If you want to continue to obtain merit points, the only way is to respond to the war and participate in the war.
Furthermore, the types of resources on the exchange are limited. If you want to get resources that are more effective than Holy Spirit Buds and Resonance Potions, you also have the only way to respond to the War Order.
No matter what you think, as long as you want to continue to rapidly improve your strength, you must participate in the next war.
Pei Ze did not hesitate for long. He had already considered this issue many times.
"I am ready to respond to the war order." Pei Ze said solemnly.
Yin Xue frowned slightly. She had actually guessed Pei Ze's answer.
But after hearing this, she couldn't help but persuade her: "Junior, in fact, you don't need to take this risk. With your talent and qualifications, you can quickly advance to the second level wizard by following the steps." Pei Ze shook his head
.
Promoting to the second level wizard is no longer a problem for him. He has already prepared the necessary resources, and in two months at most, he will be able to successfully advance to the level two wizard.
What he cares about is the road ahead.
Indeed, with the Omniscient Eye, he can practice steadily and sooner or later he will be able to advance to the third level wizard, or even a higher realm.
But without sufficient resources, the time required to achieve this goal will inevitably increase hundreds or thousands of times.
The higher one wants to climb in the wizard's way, the more resources are needed.
Without a large amount of resources to support him, he could only rely on his omniscient eye to become an ordinary genius. Don't expect to make such rapid progress during this period.
Pei Ze didn't want to do this.
In other words, I don’t want to be so timid.
The road to pursuing truth and power is inherently difficult. Those who do not have a firm will to overcome obstacles will never be able to climb to the top in this life.
If he missed a rare opportunity because of his desire for stability, he would probably regret it in retrospect when his strength progressed slowly in the future.
To take a step back, the battlefield is certainly dangerous, but he worked hard to improve his strength and accumulated many backhands and trump cards just to cope with this situation.
Even if he is really in danger, he believes that he can get out.
Of course, there is no need to say these words to Yin Xue.
Pei Ze just said with a calm face: "This is a rare opportunity, I don't want to miss it."
Seeing Pei Ze's firm look in her eyes, Yin Xue was startled, but did not say anything after all.
As her junior brother, she has always been very opinionated. Once she decides something, she cannot be convinced.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little tense, Pei Ze decisively changed the topic.
"I heard that the God-body Golem in Bishui City has been transferred here?"
Yin Xue nodded and said, "Yes, it was transported into the city three days ago. With the God-body Golem, we have more for this war. One point of certainty of victory."
The two then chatted about the war.
It wasn't until half an hour later that Pei Ze got up and left, heading towards his residence.
During this period of time, he successively completed the improvements to the first batch of third-ring spells.
The metal combination of the Silver Star Evolution Level 4 Witch Weapon has also been calculated.
As expected, the new metal combination adds many rare and extremely rare magic metals.
A standard amount of metal combinations costs more than 16,000 magic stone coins.
In order for Silver Star to evolve into a fourth-level witchcraft, it must absorb at least thirty standard amounts of metal combinations.
Calculated, it costs almost half a million magic stone coins.
To be honest, Pei Ze was shocked when he came up with this price.
But in fact, a fourth-level witchcraft is worth at least one million magic stone coins.
And most of the time, there is no market price, and no matter how many magic stone coins you have, you can't buy it.
And even if the previous consumption is taken into account, Silver Star only needs less than 600,000 magic stone coins to evolve into a fourth-level witchcraft.
The key is that it is still the top of the witchcraft of the same level.
After this calculation, half a million magic stone coins are actually a very good deal.
"That being said, I don't have that many magic stone coins now."
Although Pei Ze still has nearly 20,000 merit points on hand, he plans to use them to purchase alchemical engraving marks.
"It's better to wait until the alchemy mark is engraved and there are remaining merit points before purchasing the metal combination." "
Then let's wait until the alchemy mark is improved."
Time flies.
Outside Red Maple City, in the endless wilderness, the Turin army and the Red Maple City defenders have been facing off for more than a month.
During this period, there were constant frictions and small-scale wars broke out frequently, but a real war never broke out.
However, this does not mean that the situation has eased.
According to the exploration of the Giant Eagle Knight, more and more Turin troops are arriving one after another and joining the main army formation.
The enemy's strength increases every moment.
Red Maple City is not lagging behind either.
The teleportation array in the city almost never stops. It continues to operate every day, and a large number of people and resources are constantly being teleported into Red Maple City.
Both sides are now frantically accumulating strength and preparing for the war.
Once both sides complete their pre-war preparations, or one of them takes the lead and launches an attack, an unprecedented war will break out.
Under this situation, the atmosphere in Red Maple City became increasingly tense.
Walking on the street, looking at the closed shops on both sides, Gu Lin deeply felt the urgency of the impending war.
Aniway on the side looked calm as always, and even looked at the surrounding scenery with interest.
The terrain of Baibing City is gentle, and the urban layout is relatively ordinary. Unlike Red Maple City, where the main body of the city is built into the rolling mountains, it has a natural and natural feel.
"The person who designed this war castle has great taste." Aniway nodded slightly.
Gu Lin rolled his eyes. He wanted to complain about it, but he also cared about the designer's taste.
However, when I thought about it, I thought that the vampire next to me had probably lived for thousands of years and had never seen anything before. I immediately swallowed the words back and turned to ask about other things.
"Aniway, do you really want to stay in Red Maple City?"
"Of course."
"Why? Didn't you say you don't want to get involved in the war?"
"That's true, but not getting involved in the war doesn't mean I can't do other things. ."
Aniway glanced at Gu Lin, a red light seemed to flash in her eyes, and a charming smile appeared on her delicate face.
It's just different from the past. This time, the smile has a hint of enchantment.
"Have you forgotten that I am an undead creature?"
Gu Lin's expression froze.
Indeed, I almost forgot that vampires belong to the undead clan, and battlefields filled with death are no less than holy places to them.
Seeing Gu Lin's silence, Aniway smiled and changed the topic: "Didn't you say you wanted to find Pei Ze? Do you know where he lives?"
Gu Lin came back to his senses, shrugged and said, "I don't know. , but for a famous person like him, just ask anyone."
Gu Lin looked around, his eyes quickly locked on a big knight, and he strode over.
"Excuse me, you..."
However, after seeing the man's face clearly turned around, Gu Lin's words stopped abruptly.
Such a familiar face!
Gu Lin quickly recalled that this man was one of the knights who was on the same team as Pei Ze when he was encircling the cult. He remembered that his name seemed to be Peng Yan.
