Chapter 70 The Sudden War
The conference hall of the Babylon Palace is magnificent, with white marble walls decorated with reliefs of kings and rare birds and flowers of all generations. The postures and images of the gods spreading doctrines in myths and legends are painted on the ceiling for people to worship.
The conference hall adopts a fishbone-style staircase layout. In the center of the hall is a well-crafted sand table. The deployment of towns and major legions throughout the Orc Kingdom and the deployment of major legions is apparently revealed to the sand table. Obviously, this will become the theme of today's conference later.
At the end of the sand table, a large chair cast from gold with a two-headed lion is eye-catching, and it is the seat of His Majesty Resack.
The General Assembly Hall prohibits guards and entourages from entering, and Herbert, Panta and Platinum are arranged to wait in the side hall.
Chang Hao and Anna entered the hall and found a seat marked with the light wilderness and sat down. Seeing Dante's main priest on the temple seat not far away. Chang Hao nodded with a smile, and Dante also responded with a smile.
This scene was seen by many nobles.
As the legendary priest in the orc kingdom, Dante is equivalent to standing at the top of power and actually responding to the greetings of a little viscount?
The nobles exchanged their eyes. They had begun to secretly guess what the relationship between the unfamous Viscount and Dante Priest. If Dante Priest responded only out of politeness, there was no need to worry. But if he was the new nobleman secretly supported by Dante, they would need to take it seriously.
No fool would be willing to stand opposite to a legendary priest.
Seeing that the viscount only greeted one priest, the slutty priest and the Rhine Lion clan priest, both narrowed their eyes and cast cold eyes at Chang Hao, and found that the latter was only left to the two of them, the temple priests, on the back of their heads.
"Haha, young people nowadays are really brave to act." Raymond, the chief priest of the Rhine Lion Clan, was swaying in the golden sacrificial robe, and his tone was quite unkind.
Swan priest Smier snorted coldly, and a pair of white and sacred wings behind him shaking slightly. Obviously, he also thought the young viscount was a bit rude.
You only greet one of the three priests. What if we don’t exist?
"Isn't it great for young people who are capable to be arrogant? If the younger generation of the kingdom only learns to nod and bow to us old guys who are half-tied, can we still expect them to fight against the iron hoofs of the human empire?"
Dante's voice was not loud, but everyone nearby could hear it clearly. The protective smell in this sentence was almost explicit, and it indirectly implied the extraordinary relationship between the nobles and the young viscount.
On this side of the hall, Chang Hao was still wandering with Anna.
"Have the gods revealed their true bodies in Middle-earth continent?" Chang Hao pointed to the portraits of the gods above his head and asked Anna in a low voice.
"Uh... I've never been this to be honest."
Chang Hao curled his lips and said, "It turns out that the images of these gods are all imagined by you? There is no need for this? Maybe they don't exist at all?"
If someone else had known this by the temple, he would have been labeled as a tyrant and blasphemy and sent to the stolen cradle to death. But Anna had already learned about Chang Hao's identity from her priest father. There was a father who was even more awesome than a god. No one was more qualified to talk about these things than him.
Anna swears: "The gods must exist. Think about it, the magic and war songs circulating on the Middle Earth are not gradually from simple to complex, but suddenly emerged in a period. This cannot be born out of thin air, right? The powerful magic forbidden spells and magical beast war songs are all derived from the selfless teachings of the gods in the documentary records of many civilizations."
"Like the warriors and priests of our orc kingdom, they have claimed to be the servants of the god of war Ares and the goddess of wisdom Athena walking on the earth; the human empire is blessed by Zeus, the god of thunder, Apollo, and the prophet Prometheus; the sea tribe believes in the sea god Poseidon; the elves outside the northern region are descendants of Arthenis, the goddess of forest and Aphrodite, the god of beauty and love; and the dwarves of the iron hills, all of whom are crazy believers of Hephaestus, the god of fire and craftsmen."
Anna said with a delicate face: "The devout faith in the gods has saved our orc kingdom in times of danger many times in the countless chapters in the history of Middle-earth. The gods have never shown that miracles are true, but the best weapons given to us, courage and war songs, are also true. Lord Lord, you have not experienced the years of the burning war, but please understand this belief."
Chang Hao raised his hand to surrender, and he was indeed blamed for being too talkative in this matter.
Indeed, in the text records of various races, such as magic and war songs, the development is not a gradual path, but a jumping development.
The magicians and priests of the human empire and the orc kingdom almost all at the same time, inexplicably understood the super forbidden spells and advanced war songs. This kind of thing is difficult to explain with common sense. Everyone thinks it is a gift from the gods.
There is the Immortal Realm Heavenly Court in the East, and the Gods in the West, so this is the case.
Just as Chang Hao apologized for Anna, the door of the conference hall was pushed open, and the king's Majesty Resak, with a solemn look on his face, walked in. The nobles who were still whispering to each other immediately fell silent, and the entire hall was filled with the sound of His Majesty's heavy footsteps.
The Rhine Lion King who relied on his military merits to ascend to the throne with great military merits, and as soon as he sat down, he ordered the staff to start the meeting. He threw out a bombshell.
"The Spencer family, where Prince Camuel, is located, does not agree with the terms of compensation we have proposed, and just yesterday they have declared a state of war."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked. Is this a war between the two countries going to break out?
The nobles who were used to enjoying the extravagant life had not come back to their senses for a while. They always felt that the war was too far away and far away. Because it was more than a century ago since the last time the Orc Kingdom and the Human Empire went to war.
His Majesty the King handed a look at the Swan Clan Air Force Marshal Herman, who took the conversation and continued: "Everyone knows that in the north of the Kingdom, in addition to the human empire, there is also a desert country. According to the information from our Swan Clan scouts, they are likely to open the door to facilitate the next actions of the human empire."
Several combat staff set marks on the sand table, and the red arrow representing the human empire passed down through the desert area, pointing directly to the portal of the orc kingdom - Guangmingye.
Suddenly everyone focused their attention on the Lord of Light.
Chang Hao's eyes tightened, and what he was most worried about was still happening.
