The western border of the Andrea Empire, the Magic Golden City level.
Imperial troops patrolled back and forth as usual.
The checkpoint guard, Alphonse, was patrolling this most familiar territory, feeling quite comfortable.
As the border defense officer of Andrea, the strongest empire, the job is actually quite easy, because only the empire can go out on expeditions, and the surrounding countries dare not go against His Majesty the Emperor.
I thought that today was also a restful day. When the team came to the intersection, they saw the scouts galloping towards them on war horses. When they got there, they fell off their horses in a panic and shouted: "No! The Nangris army is coming!"
"Huh?" Alphonse couldn't help but laugh, "Nangris army? Nangris was destroyed by the devil and has no ability to protect itself. It has to rent an army. How can it be possible to fight here?"
"General, I personally saw the Nangris Border Guards leaving the checkpoint and marching this way at an extremely fast speed!" the scout said anxiously, "It is an army composed of monsters, wild beasts and monsters!"
"What?!" Alphonse's expression changed after hearing this, and he frowned and said, "Warcraft, beasts and monsters? Bastard! That's not the Nangris army, but the army of the Warcraft Forest!"
"But, but they are the troops leased to Nangris to help guard the border. What should we do if they suddenly leave the checkpoint and come towards us?"
"Queen Nangris is obviously a puppet. The future queen is just a child who doesn't understand anything. The officials of this country are not so courageous, and they may not be able to command the army of Warcraft Forest." Alphonse is still quite sober.
"It seems to be the order of the King of Warcraft, but he has just established the Kingdom of Renne, and our envoy is still there, and the legendary warrior Lord Phaedon went to challenge the opponent, so he should be busy dealing with it. Could it be that Lord Phaedon failed?
?The other party became angry and ordered retaliation? But this was too fast! Even if he really wanted to retaliate because of Master Phaethon, could the order be sent directly from Warcraft City to the border of Nangris? Or...the other party had already had this plan, before Jianguo
Were they prepared before the ceremony? The so-called leasing of troops to Nangris was just for a surprise attack?"
Because he didn't know the existence of the mobile phone and didn't get the information sent back by the messenger Tom, Alphonse could only make random guesses.
"General, what should we do?"
"Hmph! The army in the World of Warcraft Forest is indeed difficult to deal with, but it is just wishful thinking to invade our level! Don't worry, we have the strongest defensive array, which is much stronger than their level! Return to the level immediately to activate defense, and attack
Bach conveys the military information, and the other party takes the initiative to attack, which just gives us an opportunity. When the reinforcements arrive, we can attack Nangris and even the Warcraft Forest in one go!"
"Yes!!" The soldier immediately followed Alphonse back to the checkpoint, quickly activated the defensive magic array, and stood ready.
There is actually no problem with Alphonse's judgment and decision. Of course, it is only based on facing ordinary enemies.
He didn't know that the army attacking the Magic Iron City checkpoint was led by the Snow Queen herself.
The level has a defensive magic circle set up by the strongest mage in the empire, which can withstand an attack equivalent to an eighth-level strongman.
Attacks below the eighth level cannot easily destroy the magic circle, so it is very safe.
Alphonse has all the level guards ready to catch the opponent off guard and win!
"General, look!" The soldier beside him pointed into the distance.
Alphonse looked out from a high place and clearly saw the neat beast army and goblins appearing, advancing towards the imperial checkpoint as the vanguard.
The beast army is all on the ground, including different types of polakons and various ferocious animals. Goblins ride giant eagles and approach from the air.
Behind the army, there are monsters following.
"Here we come!" Alphonse was confident and pulled out his sword directly. "You stupid guy dares to declare war on the empire. You are really asking for your own death! Soldiers, let the enemy know how powerful we are!"
"We must win! We must win!" The morale of the imperial army was high. In their eyes, the word "defeat" did not exist.
"General, they've stopped!" When the Warcraft City army was about five or six kilometers away from the checkpoint, the checkpoint soldiers found that they had all stopped and were waiting in place.
"Are you scared?" Alphonse raised the corner of his mouth, "Are you still worried about how to break through the magic circle? This is the master's most powerful masterpiece. It can even withstand the full attack of the legendary eighth-level powerhouse!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the opponent's army split to both sides. A cold and stunning woman crossed over with a few fire ants, walked to the front of the team, and looked at the defensive magic array of the Magic Iron Level from a distance.
"The commander is a woman?" Alphonse couldn't help laughing, "Such an army wants to fight the empire? How ridiculous!"
"General, look!" the adjutant next to him pointed forward.
It turned out that beside the Snow Queen, a fire ant ran forward quickly and quickly approached the level.
"Fire ants? What is the use of such low-level monsters?" Alphonse wondered, "You wouldn't want to use it to destroy the defensive magic circle, would you? Even if you don't have common sense, you shouldn't be so ignorant. A mere fire ant...
…”
Before he finished speaking, he saw the fire ants that had rushed forward suddenly stopped a kilometer away, raised their heads and shot a powerful flame into the air.
The flames reached high altitudes and spun rapidly, forming a huge and scary fire storm.
The firestorm swept across like a red tornado, directly covering the entire level and completely "submerging" the area.
Such terrible fire magic frightened all the level soldiers. Alphonse was also surprised, but he was blindly confident in the magic circle made by the strongest magician in the country and shouted loudly: "Don't be afraid! We have the strongest magic circle, we can easily
withstand!"
Hearing the shouting, the checkpoint soldiers felt a little relieved.
Yes! We have the strongest magic circle in the empire, so what do we have to worry about? Even eighth-level legendary magic can be blocked, so it’s very safe!
However, the checkpoint guards did not know that the fire ant in front of them possessed ninth-level strength, and what they had just released was a ninth-level magic that they could not understand at all - Super Fire Storm.
Although the magic defense array was activated, when it collided with the super fire storm, it lasted less than a second and shattered instantly.
The flames directly engulfed the entire level, turning the area into a sea of fire.
Alphonse and his guarding army did not realize what happened, and they completely disappeared in the sea of fire.
Soon after, the Snow Queen used a blizzard to extinguish the flames and led the army into the charred and then frozen level. Except for the dark corpses everywhere, there was no one left alive.
When the ninth-level monster takes action in person, the damage caused is unimaginable.
The army passed the checkpoint without any hindrance, entered the territory of Magic Gold City, and advanced towards the castle.
