Adni didn't even dare to take a breath. The members of the Knights of the Wings of Ra crowded around her, facing the dark army of the undead a hundred or ten yards away with the tips of their swords facing outward.
The heavily armored Crusader executioners were lowering their gun blades in a row, making a creaking sound as the joints collided. The blades reflected the last ray of sunlight sinking below the horizon, and the blades glowed like obsidian.
Huang Huo sat on the horse, her little hand moved to the hilt of the sword, Mr. Liu was guarding her side, not far away, Blanc and Medisa were already ready to break out of the encirclement in a battle.
Fang Qi, the swordsman genius of Gui Che, seemed a little hesitant, and the two elders looked down beside him.
Among the crowd, only Instaron kept looking up at the sky. He frowned, as if he had thought of something.
Not a single crystal cluster could be seen far or near on the battlefield, and the nightmare insects in the sky had long since disappeared.
But the Fenhotos Strait was completely silent, and the war goddesses were suspended several thousand meters in the sky. Andrea and her companions looked at this scene a little at a loss.
Some of them cannot understand this kind of political art in the mortal world.
Fusia said in a slightly cold tone: "Let her go. Mortals need these skills to deal with the relationships between different classes. I know what you are thinking, but little girls, it's not time for you to intervene.
, be more reserved, you are ladies."
They couldn't help but look at each other.
Mortals have truly turned political struggle into an art. It is elegant, dexterous, and cold-hearted. Although it makes countless wise men think hard, this must be a great progress in the history of civilization because it at least escapes the bloody barbarism and failure.
Players don't have to worry about being beheaded or sacrificed alive, and their families will not become slaves. On the surface, they are tender and affectionate, forming a kind of rules of the game that everyone has agreed on. In the hands of a true genius, it is as exquisite as a work of art.
The Emperor of the Undead is obviously one of the best.
Brando knew this very well.
In history, the Emperor rose from humble beginnings. She parachuted onto the throne of the empire with a mercury staff. Before her fame was revealed, no one knew her origins or where she came from.
However, with the support of the vampire nobles, this support was not firm at first and full of duplicitous speculation. In just seven years, she unified the eastern region of the Sea of the Dead Moon and tied the fourteen dark noble families together.
, established the Land of Eternal Death and the royal court of Madala.
After having her own base, Her Majesty the Queen became unstoppable. She quickly received the support and recognition of the Temple of the Dead Moon and was crowned king in the Valley of Death. Then she launched a new campaign in the name of the Temple.
The First War of the Black Rose.
This war was undoubtedly a stroke of genius. It not only diverted Madara's hatred between the undead lords due to the seven-year civil war, but also gave the emperor a perfect opportunity to eliminate dissidents.
In fact, the so-called first Black Rose War was essentially a war to eliminate dissidents. Kabasi, and later the Blood Staff and other traditional undead lords perished in this war. What is even more valuable is the long-term undead lord.
Years of civil strife allowed Madara to have an elite army at the beginning of the war, which allowed Her Majesty the Queen to achieve her goals while still winning victory.
This is important.
Because this war can be turned into dividends, allowing her followers to benefit from it, thus further consolidating the emperor's status in this war.
Madala is a special empire without citizens. A few undead lords dominate the life and death of tens of millions of low-level undead, and the low-level undead have no wisdom and no political appeal. For this special reason, this country
It has always been difficult to form a truly centralized empire.
But His Majesty the Emperor also possesses the mercury staff, and she is very good at taking advantage of this. She requires the undead to be loyal to the mercury staff instead of to herself, and uses religion as a bond to maintain the pride of the undead lords. The mercury staff and the Death Moon
The legend of Sheng completed the awakening of the Black Rose of Brahmanda, which is essentially a process of national awakening.
And through this process, His Majesty the Emperor, who is hiding behind the scenes, can easily push the Temple of the Dead Moon to the front and use this to judge whether the undead obey her.
This can be said to be an alien version of coercing the emperor to command the princes, but this woman cleverly used the tradition of this dark country to complete the process beautifully.
Until around the Year of Spark in history, the country of Madara had actually achieved substantial unification. The past tradition of the undead lords separatist parties was completely abolished, and the vigorously developed new alchemy system also allowed this country to have
A completely different way of organizing than in the past.
Since then, the whole continent has been talking about the coming of the "black tide".
There is no doubt that Her Majesty the Queen is a ruler with outstanding skills. Although she is arbitrary and cold-hearted, she is the most precious asset given to the Dead Moon Empire by God. It is said by word of mouth that Madara is the gifted monarch.
This is definitely not a puppet holding a mercury staff.
Instead, Martha promised to give Madala the chosen one for the dead.
In her time, she was far ahead of her peers. The Zhongxing monarchs of the Cruz people and the Faenzan people were far inferior to her, not to mention Saint Osor who was bound by ancient dogma and could not move forward, and in the eyes of the giant Madara
Eruin is not worth mentioning.
Face to face with such a being, Brando said that it is impossible not to have any fear in his heart. Compared with her, Cruz's Silver Queen may not have changed much from the Silver Princess sixty years ago. It is nothing more than possession of
Just gained the power of an empire.
And this supreme being holding a mercury staff, even if he is an ordinary person, is definitely the most dangerous kind of existence.
But it was precisely because of this fear and familiarity with the other party's origin and personality that Brando found something strange in Her Majesty the Queen's attitude.
At this time, Delphine let go of the horse's reins and came to Brando's side. He bit his ears and whispered a few words to him. Before Medissa frowned more tightly and looked at her with silver eyes, he straightened up and left.
Come on.
Brando glanced at her.
The words of the Cruz prime minister's daughter coincided with his thoughts.
He looked up at the sky and recalled some information about the Lich Dailin in his mind.
Dai Lin is one of the oldest undead lords in the country of the Dead Moon. In fact, it has seen the mercury staff of the previous generation and Loki, and it itself is also the three most powerful in Madara.
One of the lichs.
It is for this reason that this guy's attitude towards Her Majesty the Queen has never been very respectful.
The other party is also the commander of the Jackdaw Fleet. This fleet was formed by a group of necromancers. It was born before the second coming of the Mercury Staff. It nominally belongs to the Temple of the Dead Moon, but in fact
But he took orders from an organization called the 'Sequence of the Undead'.
The 'Sequence of the Undead' is said to be founded by Loki. Because Loki himself is the most outstanding necromancer in the Dead Moon Kingdom for thousands of years, this organization also brings together most of the most powerful necromancers and necromancers in Madara.
Lich, its headquarters is located to the west of the Sea of the Dead Moon, and the necromancers who have lived here have built countless towers on that land.
The Dark Moon Wizard is actually talking about this group of ‘people’.
Historically, due to the powerful power of the Undead Sequence, the Emperor did not touch them until the Year of the Dragon's Shadow at the end of the First Age, and only let the Balakirevo Liches that emerged later to check and balance them.
It was not until the final battle of the Year of Long Night, when Dai Lin and another Lich King were killed in the war with the Golden Sea, that the Jackdaw Fleet was destroyed, and the undead sequence ushered in the catastrophe.
Today, it seems that this process will be advanced.
Brando had such a hunch when he saw the time when the fleet entered the scene. Dailin obviously did not take the Emperor seriously at all. If the Silver Elf hadn't kept his promise, his fleet would have been destroyed.
He didn't come in to clean up the mess, but he came to help His Majesty the Emperor collect the body.
This lich's intentions are evident.
And it is obviously confident, and the opponent actually does have this capital. If not for the accident in the final battle in history, I am afraid that the undead sequence will still exist for a long, long time, at least before the middle of the Second Era, Madara will not want it.
Want to truly unify.
Although Brando doubts that the accident in the final battle may not be an accident at all.
Just look at His Majesty the Emperor's current thoughts and you will understand.
The other party obviously wanted to use his hand to kill the unlucky Lich King.
Brando remained silent.
Of course he didn't want to be used as a spearman by His Majesty the Emperor, but it was clear that he had no choice at the moment. At least if he wanted to break out, he would also have to ask the undead army surrounding them if they agreed.
But what he knew more clearly was that even if he obeyed the emperor's wishes, the other party would not necessarily let him go. It would be more likely to use him to avenge 'Duke Dailin'.
After all, there is no covenant relationship between the two. At present, it can only be said that the other party is unilaterally plotting against itself.
However, he was not too anxious. His Majesty the Emperor, who was holding a mercury staff, gave him a big surprise. It happened that he also left a surprise for the other party. After all, he was too familiar with the other party as Eruin's main enemy.
, he had long been on guard against His Majesty the Emperor's betrayal.
What he is even more confused about now is why the Emperor is so confident that he will obey her wishes. If he starts from the undead army on the ground, the final result may not be bearable for the undead of Madara.
