When the war over Silver Star City began, on the border battlefield of the distant Kalras Province, a secret projection meeting took place in the central palace of a city named Laputel that had been controlled by the marquis.
Held simultaneously.
Relying on the crystal ball engraved with layers of secret patterns in the core chamber, the ratio of the flow rate of time to the flow rate of time in the outside world is constant at ten to one in the illusory conference room, and has the effect of anti-prophecy magic.
A projection with different appearances appeared in the conference room almost at the same time.
If anyone knows them, they will be surprised to find that in the projection of this small conference room, all the projections of the seven marquis who initiated the war are already present!
"The news has been officially confirmed. The [Light Chaser] of the Alfred family and the [Silver Storm] of the Olivendi family have been secretly transferred back and appear in the Star Territory battlefield.
Now, the battlefield of Silver Star City on the southeast side of Kallas Province and the battlefield of Leila City on the east side are no longer protected by ninth-level forces."
After all the participants had gathered, Marquis de Winter, who projected a dark figure shrouded in mist, was the first to speak, telling the news he had obtained.
No one present was surprised by this result, or in other words, the two families had no choice.
"Then, according to the plan, we should choose the next target."
Looking around at the many silent marquises, the projection of Marquis de Winter finally said.
"I think the [Glory Holy Sword] of the Alfred family is good. It has only broken through the ninth level in the past two hundred years. It has average strength and is relatively easy to obtain."
Since directly reciting the name of a ninth-level expert can easily be perceived by the opponent, when people discuss the enemy's ninth-level person, they often call him by his title.
"The [Winter's Cold] of the Olivendi family is also good. He is known as the youngest ninth level in the empire. He still has great potential in the future and is worthy of being a target."
"Second, I also think it is appropriate to choose these two ninth levels as targets."
"Seconded!"
Many marquises discussed it one after another, but in the end they all agreed that the targets could be these two ninth-level ones.
"Everyone, unfortunately, I can only choose one of them as my target this time."
However, after listening to everyone's discussion in silence for a while, Marquis Draka finally spoke.
"Our current ninth-level combat strength is only two more than the opponent's, and the target is from a duke family, so he must have a large number of high-level magic items.
If just two of us act together, we may be able to defeat the opponent easily, but it will be difficult to really leave a target. At least three ninth-level people are needed to be safe."
"If I have to choose one of the two, I think [Winter's Cold] is the most suitable. He is currently very young and has great potential in the future."
"I'm still more optimistic about [Sword of Glory]. According to intelligence, he is likely to break through again in the near future, which is a big threat to us."
"I also agree with choosing [Sword of Glory]."
"I choose [Winter Cold]."
"..."
"Then let's vote!"
As the opinions of many marquises differed, Marquis de Winter spoke indifferently.
No one raised any objections, and a moment later, the voting results were officially announced.
[Cold of Winter] Carrot won with a vote of four to three.
"Well, Lord Cuijing, Lord Anrita, your opponents have left at this moment. According to the agreement, please cooperate with me in secret, and we must successfully solve the target."
"As for the two battlefields, according to the agreement, they will be temporarily handed over to the resistance organizations to occupy. I hope they will not fail to do this little thing."
Seeing this, Marquis Beshim, who looked like an ordinary young man with black hair and black eyes, slowly stood up and nodded to the two marquis.
With the target and execution manpower determined, all the temporary projections of the marquis stood up and disappeared, and the meeting ended.
Anvis is not the only one who wants to reduce the number of the enemy's ninth level, the Marquis's side also thinks so.
On the other side, after the impromptu meeting, the two Marquises Cuijing and Anrita, who had been assigned tasks, immediately set off and secretly teleported to the location of Marquis Beshim.
At this moment, Marquis Beshim is sitting in the army on the west side of Kallas Province.
After seeing the two marquis teleporting in secretly, a man wearing a dark green sacrificial robe with the emblem of the [Singing Star Secret Cult] and a strange stone mask nodded slightly to the two.
Seeing this man, the eyes of the two marquises flashed a hint of caution.
Marquis Cuijing had the deepest impression on them. He was actually one of the three marquis who were seriously injured in the Sky City explosion, and he should have been recovering slowly.
But while he was recuperating, people from the mysterious [Singing Star Secret Cult] suddenly appeared and used a weird ritual to quickly restore his power. The price was to join the Marquis's camp and start a war with the four major families.
.
But after receiving the treatment, Marquis Cuijing was only left with a strong sense of vigilance. He couldn't solve a problem that even the ninth level could solve, so why could these strange cults solve it?
"Before this operation begins, I will temporarily cover the fate of your Majesty to prevent the enemy from noticing in advance."
Facing the mild hostility of the two marquises, the masked priest of the [Song Star Secret Cult] turned a blind eye.
"Now, let's go!"
.
….….
"The war should have started... huh?"
In the large tent of the Chinese army, Duke Carrot paused while reviewing a document. He looked at the night sky in the direction of the stars and suddenly felt uneasy for no reason.
He put down the magic quill in his hand, and his invisible thoughts suddenly extended and expanded, carefully checking every corner around the army, but in the end he found nothing.
"Yes, they need to contain me and prevent me from supporting other battlefields... In other words, they are about to launch an attack."
After gradually clarifying the situation, the Duke's expression turned cold.
At the same time, the ground began to shake slightly, which was the effect that could only be caused when a large number of troops charged. The roar of magic and the sharp sound of arrows piercing the air were faintly transmitted to the Duke's ears.
And in the center of the countless incoming armies, a terrifying aura like the sun had already locked onto Duke Carrot who was sitting in the army.
"I don't know what the situation is like with Fiona and Avis."
A little worried, the Duke suddenly stood up and disappeared from the tent. The next moment, he appeared in mid-air, facing the Marquis of Beshim in the distance.
There was no dialogue. Above the armies of both sides like a black tide below, two different areas of rules expanded from the two of them and violently collided with each other. Everything seemed to be no different from before.
But at the next moment, the other two different rule fields suddenly expanded from nothingness, and together with the earliest Marquis Beshim, they were surrounded on three sides, surrounding Duke Carrot in the center!
The sudden accident caused Carlot's expression to change suddenly, and what made his heart sink even more was that the space on the battlefield had been completely blocked by the alien power, and the message for help could no longer be sent out.
Three against one, after struggling to hold on for a moment, Duke Carrot's rule domain quickly dissolved like snowflakes in the sun.
It can be seen through the looming field that beside the Duke, a twenty-sided ice crystal shining with starlight is suspended with difficulty, exuding a terrifying aura of rules, supporting the Duke's last defensive position, but it is still in three places.
Under the joint attack of the ninth level, the name quickly dimmed.
If there are no variables, then Carrot will become the first ninth level to withdraw from this imperial civil war.
