After continuing to chat with Stella and Natasha for a while, Nalant and others returned to their rooms to rest.
However, what he didn't know was that he thought he knew the news quickly enough.
But in fact, when Princess Isabella got the news, the church had already launched a war on the edge of the desert.
The reason is very simple. The church wants to catch the Agate Principality by surprise.
As for the nobles and soldiers recruited from the Northern Principality, they will be the main force to deal with the soldiers of the Agate Principality who come to resist in the later period, and will be used as cannon fodder.
Baron Dingwall's Castle on the edge of the desert, the original stronghold belonging to the Baron Dingwall family has fallen, and the castle is ablaze with flames.
"Master Bishop, the castle has been set on fire!" A few miles away, an army of more than 30,000 people gathered here, and the most eye-catching one was the 3,000 paladins wearing uniform silver armor.
A cavalryman who had just returned from Warding Castle reported to the bishop at the front.
"Very good!" The Lord Bishop nodded, very satisfied with the result.
Next to the bishop, a commander of the Northern Principality felt a little regretful, and immediately asked him in confusion: "Your Majesty Bishop, we have completely captured this castle, why should we burn it down? Isn't it a pity?"
"The strength of the Agate Principality is not weak. Although it will certainly not be able to stop our holy religion and the army of your Northern Principality, but just in case, it is necessary to destroy all their castles. Even if there is an accident in the future, they will never be able to stop them again.
Unable to occupy the lost ground.”
"The more land the Agate Principality loses, the weaker their strength will be in the future!" The bishop glanced at the leader and gave an explanation.
"That's it!" The commander felt that it made sense and was no longer suspicious.
In fact, he didn't know that the church's purpose was to make this glorious continent the back garden of dark creatures, so how could it keep these castles?
If it weren't for the fact that the Northern Principality is still useful, not even the castles and palaces of the Northern Principality would remain.
"Notice, let's continue heading east. We'd better capture this count within a week!" The bishop immediately issued an order to the commander of the Northern Principality and the three thousand paladins.
"Yes, Lord Bishop!"
Immediately, the church and the 30,000 allied troops of the Northern Principality continued to attack the Agate Principality under the cover of night.
…
Time turned to the next day.
Stella got into the carriage and prepared to return.
Due to emergencies in the Northern Principality, Natasha will also return to Tulip City with Stella today.
Although she does not need to go to the battlefield, as she is familiar with the operation of the family caravan, she may also need to help the family transport supplies to the nobles of the principality this time.
After all, this battle is related to the fate of the country. Everyone in the principality will be prosperous, and everyone will suffer losses.
Nalant escorted the two women to the edge of the Storm Territory, and then stopped his war horse.
"Narant, I'll leave first!"
Stella got off the carriage and said goodbye to Nalant.
"Then please be careful on the road, we will probably meet again in a few days!"
"Yeah!" Stella's face was full of reluctance.
For more than a week, although there was Natasha as an extra 'outsider', it was her and Narant's world in the back garden at night.
This left Stella, who had never experienced the love of a lover, still unsatisfied.
Pursing her lips, Stella hesitated for a moment, then suddenly moved towards Nalant's face.
This is the time to kiss Nalant goodbye.
It’s just that the old driver Nalant had actually been waiting for a long time, so he took advantage of the situation and put his arms around Stella’s slender waist, and then directly touched her red lips.
Stella didn't expect Nalant to be so bold and dare to kiss her like this in front of so many people.
Suddenly her pretty face turned red with embarrassment, and the red went straight to her neck.
However, she did not resist after all. Instead, she gradually became involved as the old driver teased her.
"Ahem!"
I don’t know how long the goodbye kiss lasted. Just when Stella felt a little suffocated, she heard a cough in her ears, and then she woke up and pushed Nalant away.
"Stella, then let's go!"
The coughing sound was none other than Natasha in another carriage.
Natasha looked at Nalant with a resentful look, which made Nalant not dare to stay any longer and directly urged Stella and others to set off.
"Well, I'm leaving then!" Stella was already shy in her heart, so she hummed and quickly climbed into the carriage.
Immediately, under the escort of ten tulip knights, Stella's carriage slowly moved out of the border of the Storm Territory.
"Miss me!" Natasha, who followed closely behind, first gave Nalant a roll of her eyes, and then mouthed the parting words resentfully.
Nalant naturally nodded his head neatly. When both carriages disappeared at the end of the road, he took a deep breath and wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead.
To be honest, without strength, not everyone can enjoy the blessings of Qi Ren.
…
"Quick, please distribute these fruits! From now on, I need all of you to work hard for me!"
After seeing off Stella and Natasha, and returning to the gentle slope of the castle, Nalant immediately summoned all his subordinates to start mobilizing before the war.
As the news reaches Bernard, I believe the recruitment order will come soon.
"Yes, sir! My subordinates must practice hard and fight for you!"
"Very well, let's go!"
This time Nalant also spent a lot of money, each person got three strengthening fruits and two agility fruits.
In total, it cost a full twenty-five energy points to vomit out the wool that had been collected from the cracks in space in the past few months at once.
However, with the war imminent, he could not bear to feel distressed.
If Quick and others can quickly advance to the intermediate level of bronze, with the mithril armor and weapons on their bodies, although they cannot deal with three thousand paladins, they will be enough to deal with the royal knights of the Northern Principality.
After explaining Quick and others, Nalant returned to the castle and called Thomas and Mario.
The army has not moved, food and fodder must go first, and logistics materials must be prepared as soon as possible, and Naranten left this matter to Thomas.
Let him prepare all the food, tents, etc. needed for the army to go out as quickly as possible.
As for Mario, Nalant asked him to prepare supplies for use in the war, such as arrows, spears and other necessary consumable supplies.
After giving the instructions, Nalant was finally free.
However, he was not really idle, but returned to his study and began to increase his strength.
"This is a life and death battle. I can't save my energy points. It's only right to spend them all to strengthen my strength."
With this in mind, Nalant first spent seven energy points to directly exchange for three fruits: Strengthening, Agility, and Intelligence.
After spending seven points, he only had thirty-seven of his poor energy points left. He kept doing nothing and started pumping wildly.
As the big turntable rotates vigorously, there are more and more strange fruits in the item frame.
