When Earl Meath came to the city wall of Morningstar City accompanied by his personal guards, the Maple Leaf Territory rebels in the distance had disappeared on the horizon.

They seemed to be walking in a hurry. Some of the baggage on the ground was not completely taken away, but was only burned by a fire. There were traces of burning everywhere in the camp.

Those trebuchets that had not yet been assembled were also destroyed one by one. Count Meath even saw the siege towers set up by the rebels, which had been worrying him these past few days...

The army that besieged Morning Star City exceeded 30,000 people, including the already legendary powerhouse Red Maple King Otto, and there was no shortage of extraordinary powerhouses with terrifying strength.

This is a quite terrifying force for Morning Star City, which has only a few thousand defenders and the strongest one is only at the gold level.

If it weren’t for the magical defensive barrier, I’m afraid the city would have been breached long ago.

But even so, under the siege of the rebels, the entire Morning Star City is crumbling. Without reinforcements, it will be a matter of time before the city is breached.

Even if the reinforcements from the Duke of Belencia arrive, at most they will only ease the situation and give the city's defenders a chance to evacuate.

After all... there is a terrifying evil **** behind the other party who may take action at any time.

If the entire army is wiped out like last time, the empire will definitely not be willing to do it a second time, so it will never rush into a decisive battle with the rebels.

This is simply an unsolvable problem...

This is how the supernatural world is. On ordinary days, the transcendent mythical beings check and balance each other, so that the secular world has the opportunity to resolve disputes according to the methods of the secular world.

However... once there are mythical beings who break the rules and attack ordinary people in person, then... people will realize that under the myths, they are all ants.

These Earls of Meath understand, and he believes that the rebels also understand.

For the rebels, with Shinhwa's strong support behind them, it was only a matter of time before they captured Morning Star City, and all preparations for the siege had already been made.

However, under such circumstances, they withdrew their troops inexplicably.

"Maple Leaf Collar! Something must have happened to the Maple Leaf Collar!"

Earl Meath judged.

Reminiscent of some of the rumors he had heard before, an idea came to his mind:

Could it be... those long ears in the Elf Forest took action?

He subconsciously raised his head and looked to the southeast, with a trace of expectation, a trace of anxiety, and a trace of doubt in his expression...

If there is any force that can stop the evil **** of the Maple Leaf Territory at this time...then the only one he can think of is the true **** walking on the ground in the Elf Forest.

"Quickly send out scouts! Follow the rebels and find a way to investigate why they retreated!"

Earl Meath ordered the guards around him.

……

When Count Meath knew the reason for the rebels' retreat, it was already noon the next day.

And entering the city together with the returning scouts were the troops of the Duke of Belencia who came to support.

When the army entered the city, the eager Earl of Meath finally met the marshal, the Duke of Belencia, a middle-aged gentleman with gray hair and a powerful legendary warrior.

"Where are the rebels? Your Excellency, didn't you say that they have laid siege to the city? Why did they retreat?"

In the temporary city lord's palace in Morningstar City, the Duke of Belencia looked at the somewhat excited Earl of Meath and frowned slightly.

"It's the elves! Your Majesty the Duke, the elves have launched an attack on the Maple Leaf Territory! According to the scouts, they had already captured Augus City yesterday, so the rebels have returned for reinforcements!"

Earl Meath was a little excited, but also a little reserved and respectful.

The excitement is naturally because the elves are finally participating in this war, and the participation of the elves means the participation of the goddess of life.

The goddess of life is involved, and rounding it off, this war... is likely to be won!

As for being cautious and respectful...

Although the two nobles are not in a vassal relationship, but are both territorial lords loyal to His Majesty the Emperor, one is an earl and the other is an elector duke. After all, there is a big difference in titles.

Not to mention that the Duke of Belencia is also a powerful legendary professional, and the strong...will be respected everywhere.

Of course, these are all details. The Duke of Belencia can naturally think of the reason why Earl Meath is excited.

"Elves? Have those idiots in the Council finally convinced the Church to ally with the Elf Forest again? Why didn't you notify me?"

He was slightly startled.

Earl Meath was also stunned.

Then he asked doubtfully:

"Your Excellency, don't you know about the elves' participation in the war?"

"How would I know? If I knew, would I still ask you?"

The Duke of Belencia said speechlessly.

After saying that, he walked back to the map in the hall. While looking at the maps of the Western Territory and the Maple Leaf Territory, he gradually frowned:

"Impossible... If the elves captured Augus City yesterday, then they should have launched a war long ago. After all, Augus City has Folze Fortress... Even if the information could not be transmitted, No matter how slow it is, there is no way we won’t get any news here.”

As he spoke, he looked at Count Meath again:

"Your Excellency, have you found any more detailed information?"

Earl Meath said excitedly:

"This is exactly the other news I want to tell you! It is said... that the elves successfully broke through Forze Fortress and captured Augus City in less than a day, as did the rebels. That’s why we came back urgently.”

"Your Majesty the Duke! I think... the elves may have sent legendary powerhouses, maybe even mythical powerhouses. Wasn't it rumored before that those guys sent by the church to the Elf Forest encountered demigods? ? Otherwise, the city would never have been captured so quickly!"

Looking at the excited expression of Count Meath, the Duke of Belencia chuckled and nodded:

"It's possible... It is said that the God of Dusk and Sunset is a newly resurrected evil god. His beliefs are almost in a mess. It is estimated that it will be difficult to activate the magical defensive barrier. There is no legendary mage in the Maple Leaf Territory, so the defense of the city will not have an advantage."

"Otto brought out all his main forces, so it is normal to be caught off guard."

After receiving the Duke’s affirmation, Earl Meath was even more excited:

"Yes! I think so too!"

Then he said excitedly:

"Your Majesty Duke! This is an opportunity! Since the elves have already participated in the war, let us take the opportunity to counterattack! With the elves participating in the war, and with our cooperation, we will be able to quickly regain the lost ground and finally defeat the evil god's army!"

Earl Meath looked expectant.

However, after listening to his words, the Duke of Belencia's reaction was a little cold, and he didn't seem to be very interested in it.

"Your Majesty the Duke?"

Earl Meath shouted again.

The Duke of Belencia glanced at him and said with a smile:

"Why are you anxious? The lost land will always be recovered. Now that the elves have participated in the war, we cannot participate rashly."

"Why? Your Majesty, Duke, are you just going to watch the people of the empire continue to be oppressed by the evil god?"

Earl Meath said somewhat eagerly.

The rebels invaded the Western Territory, and one-third of his territory has fallen.

Now that he sees the opportunity for recovery, Count Meath naturally wants to seize it, and the sooner the better.

However, the Duke of Belencia only glanced at him:

"Why are you panicking? Haven't most of your vassal nobles withdrawn? And the rest... are just some ignorant civilians. It doesn't matter if some of them die, it doesn't matter if they are oppressed. In this case, when the territory After the liberation, you will be able to feel our kindness even more... You can even have an excuse to deprive those fleeing nobles of their titles."

"Don't worry, it's your territory, it's your territory. I'm not interested in the poor Western Territory."

After hearing his words, Earl Meath opened his mouth and was speechless.

"Then...when do you plan to counterattack?"

He asked again.

The Duke of Belencia narrowed his eyes slightly. He glanced at the location of the Elf Forest on the map, chuckled and said:

"Don't worry, let the elves fight with the rebels for a while, just in time to explore the elves' background."

“The Elf Forest has developed so fast in the past few years. Even if we in the Belencia Territory are far away from the west, we have long heard that some novel small items produced in the Elf Forest have gradually become popular in the imperial capital of Mania. Get up, don’t underestimate it.”

"This is an opportunity, not only for us to see the strength of the elves, but also to use the rebels to consume their strength. After all... aliens are aliens after all."

"Wouldn't it be better for us to take the opportunity to regain our territory after both the rebels and the elves have suffered losses, and the Maple Leaf Leader Evil God and the Goddess of Life have decided the winner?"

"By then...it is estimated that the remaining nobles in the Maple Leaf Territory will have been purged, and most of those who fled to you will have lost their roots. Isn't this an opportunity for us participants to gain more territory through our military exploits?"

"Hey, Maple Leaf Collar is very rich."

Earl Meath was stunned for a moment, then nodded in surprise:

"You still think more comprehensively!"

……

The two imperial nobles dreamed of recovering the spoils from the Maple Leaf Territory. On the other side, Otto, the former border lord and now the Red Maple Leaf King, also led his army back to the western border after a hasty march.

The Western Territory and Maple Leaf Territory hand over, under Augus City.

Otto von Cappadocia stood on the hill, looking at a piece of paper with a declaration written in Common Language, squinting his eyes slightly.

In front of him, there was a scout reporting respectfully:

"Your Majesty, according to reliable information, the elves have organized an army of 200,000 people. After capturing Augus City, they have divided their troops into three groups and are heading towards the other three cities closest to Augus City. And left."

After hearing this, Otto's expression did not change, but the expression of a tall and thin nobleman behind him changed:

"Nearby cities? Wait, how about Zeroland?"

The scout hesitated for a moment and replied:

"Zeroland is one of the elves' targets, and it is said to be the direction where the main force is heading."

Hearing this answer, the tall and thin noble turned pale.

He looked at the Red Maple King Otto and said anxiously:

"Your Majesty! We cannot let the elves capture Zeroland! Zeroland's terrain is dangerous! If it is captured, the Maple Leaf Territory will be completely destroyed!"

Otto glanced at him lightly and said coldly:

“Zeroland is important, isn’t Augus City important?”

The tall and thin noble suffocated slightly.

Otto no longer looked at him, but threw the piece of paper in his hand to the ground, his voice slightly disdainful:

"Karl, look at it, you are far worse than your half-sister."

The tall and thin nobleman was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously picked up the piece of paper. When he read the declaration on the piece of paper, his expression quickly turned ferocious, and he gritted his teeth and said:

[Read books and get red envelopes] Follow the public account [Book Friends Base Camp] ~IndoMTL.com~ and draw up to 888 cash red envelopes!

"Sophia! This **** bitch! She was the one who led the elves' army here!"

Otto did not continue to answer him.

He glanced at the city of Augus in the distance with the red flag erected on the city wall, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes:

"Mysterious Sky Fortress... Haha, these long ears of the Elf Forest can really do some new tricks."

After speaking, he looked at the scout again:

"What is the current situation in Augus City?"

The scout replied respectfully:

"Your Majesty, there are about five thousand elves responsible for defending the city in the city. Their average strength should be stronger than our soldiers, but there should be no high-level professionals."

"Is the news reliable?"

"Reliable, we arrested several people who left the city and interrogated them individually."

After receiving the answer, King Otto did not make any reaction, but the tall and thin nobleman named Karl heard the number of garrison and was instantly surprised and said:

"Your Majesty! There are only five thousand people! And there are no high-level professionals! Then won't we be able to take back the city easily?"

Otto glanced at him coldly and uttered one word:

"Stupid!"

The tall and thin nobleman instantly closed his mouth and turned pale.

Otto snorted coldly and continued to look at the scout:

"Is there any news about the temple in Augus City? Are there any life believers preaching?"

The scout continued to answer:

"Yes, it is said that the elves enshrined the statue of the goddess of life in it. At the same time, the city also began to promote the belief of the goddess of life. While they promoted it, they also distributed various supplies to the citizens, and even sent the nobles in Augus to The family property was also distributed to the poor people. It is said that a large number of people in the city have converted..."

Hearing this, Otto took a deep breath:

"Then the magical defense barrier should have been repaired and the teleportation circle has been built."

As he spoke, he smiled coldly:

"Being able to resurrect from the dead, and building a defensive barrier, it is more likely to be teleported again and again. Haha, five thousand people... This is not five thousand people, this is simply a bottomless pit!"

"They say Anos is unscrupulous, but I think the one in the Elf Forest is not much different!"

After speaking, he turned around and looked at the tall and thin noble who was still a little nervous:

"Call the high priest over."

Following Otto's order, a middle-aged man in gray robe was called to him in a short while.

However, the currently highest-ranking clergyman of the Dusk and Sunset Church was trembling and honest when facing Otto, and did not look like a church leader at all.

Otto glanced at him casually and said:

"High Priest, please arrange the sacrifices, communicate with His Majesty Anos, and ask Him to take action."
