Groups of armed men wearing purple robes held torches and walked through the streets. They were the escorts on the three major fleets of Carites, and they were also existences with strong combat effectiveness, because Carites focused on shipbuilding and
In maritime trade, elite personnel will lean toward maritime power.
As the elites of the Tisiphone family went to attack Carites and partially blockade the area north of Hopland, the headquarters of the chamber of commerce became empty.
A group of black-clad crossbowmen were stationed on the street to shoot, but the landing guards on Carites' side charged directly with bucklers.
The soldiers were very fast, and during the charge, although a small number of people were shot down, most of them quickly approached the Tisiphone family's defense level.
The gun guard was immediately cut down and fell into a pool of blood.
The firelight swayed, and the blood on the stone tile floor was stepped on. Carites's guards continued to advance, the hot breath they breathed joined together in the cold night, and ahead was the door of Tisiphone's house.
Tisiphone Chamber of Commerce, in the lobby of the main building.
Listening to the sound of shelling and shouts of death coming from outside, the old owner opened his slightly cloudy eyes.
"What do you decide to do now?" he asked the two sons next to him.
At this time, many buildings at the headquarters of the Tisiphone Chamber of Commerce had been bombarded by artillery shells, some were still on fire, and some had collapsed. There were firefighting and running guards everywhere.
Wick did not answer at this time, but turned his gaze to Adeley.
Adeley leaned back in his chair, tapped his fingers on the table, and answered after a while.
"Carites' fleet is indeed unexpected, but it is still within our control."
"The master within the organization will take action. It just so happened that Jelder said he wanted to burn the city, which gave us a reasonable excuse to intervene."
When Adeli struck, the ring on his finger also emitted a faint blue light. There was some kind of brilliance flowing in the gem set in the ring, which seemed to be conveying a message.
After finishing speaking, he stood up and picked up the long and narrow scimitar on the table.
"However, I will also be prepared for battle."
"After all, if you want to be the master of Hopelaner, you still have to show your strength." Under the short black hair, a bloodthirsty smile appeared.
As he walked out of the hall, two teams of elites waiting in the hall followed him closely. These two teams of elites were wearing tight-fitting soft armor, and their bodies were dark. Even their heads were wearing black masks, with strange red spots on the black masks.
Patterns, they walked extremely fast, like shadows in the firelight and ruins.
呲——
The scimitar was pulled out from the scabbard, the cold light was bright, and there were deep red lines on the blade. Under the moonlight, the lines seemed to be flowing faintly like blood.
The wall of Tisiphone's house had long been blasted open by artillery fire, and there were gaps and purple-clad guards pouring in all around.
Following Adli, this group of elites wearing black and red masks were like shadows, quickly and sharply strangling the enemies who entered the chamber of commerce, causing blood to fly.
-------------------
At Kalites Headquarters, Lorraine Hill stood on the tower, watching the roar of artillery fire, bombing the enemy positions. The morale within the Chamber of Commerce was also boosted, and the enemy was driven out of the wall for a while. The big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, and the top of his head was lifted.
The huge wind ball also slowly dissipated.
After being attacked from both inside and outside, the Nisos family's team finally decided to retreat. They broke away to the north and then returned to defend their headquarters.
After seeing the Nissos family retreating, Lorraine Hill ordered not to pursue them, but to use more manpower to defend and counterattack the Tisiphone family's attack. After all, they were the main enemies.
With the guards returning with the fleet, Carites' own counterattack also began. Taking advantage of the artillery bombardment, which disrupted the opponent's formation, his own cavalry quickly attacked and rushed into the enemy's formation, and then the infantry personnel also rushed to follow.
, fighting with the people on the opposite side, preventing the musket from exerting its power.
The loading of the flintlock gun requires a relatively stable environment, and the accuracy is not high. When the two sides are fighting in close combat, the probability of shooting one's own is very high, so at this time, one's own advantage cannot be used, and one is quickly suppressed.
The attacking team of Tisiphone's family fell into a bitter battle from which it was difficult to escape.
More than half an hour has passed since the ultimatum, and the Helis family, which has yet to see the other party's handover, has gradually filled the sky with camellias over the city, like clouds like a sea of yellow flowers, emitting a hot and dangerous light.
At this time, not only the neutral people in the city, but also Carites began to worry, but they did not dare to provoke this ally too much for fear of losing control.
Just as the hour was about to come, bright yellow camellias began to burn and bloom in the sky, and the atmosphere was filled with a dull and hot breath. The air in the sky seemed to be distorted, as if the scenery was seen through colorless flames.
A faint blue beam of light shone from the night sky, and then the beam of light swept across the sky. The burning camellias instantly turned into ice slag and fell from the sky, breaking into pieces.
After going back and forth several times in this way, the night sky that was originally filled with flowers suddenly cleared, and somewhere in the city stood a 'giant'. On its gray granite-like body, there was a faint blue brilliance flowing, and the huge core on its chest
, after radiating the beam of light, it slowly dimmed and returned to the same color as the body.
An alchemist in black robes stood on the shoulders of this 'giant', and with the assistance of extraordinary power, his voice spread throughout the city.
"I am Zenep, the alchemist from the country of Lurna. I should not interfere in Verga's internal affairs, but because the Helis family's actions will threaten the safety of the entire city's residents and myself, I have no choice but to take action."
"Now in line with the concept of preserving strength and unity within the Seven Snow Flower Countries, I declare an immediate ceasefire between the two sides. The right and wrong of the matter will be judged fairly by the Alliance Guild in the future."
"If either side is still stubborn and refuses to take the initiative to attack, I will join the other side and punish them."
As the words fell, everyone looked up at the giant demon statue that was more than ten stories high, and the city fell into a brief silence.
"Disgusting, bah!"
One of the captains of Carites spat disdainfully after hearing the announcement from the other side.
These seemingly fair words are not fair at all. Why did Carites say nothing when the headquarters was about to be captured, and now the Tisiphone family stood up when they were about to die?
What about the internal ruling of the Alliance Guild in the future? Now anyone who understands can guess that there is a problem within the Alliance Guild. I don’t know if the person who will rule in the future is a human or a ghost. What if Tisiphone and Yubeile discuss it?
Okay? It’s still unclear whether the guild that comes to judge is the original guild.
If we don't beat the Tisiphone family down now, why don't we have to wait for them to catch their breath and call for help?
Although everyone was a little dissatisfied, they gradually stopped fighting like the enemy. Both sides were waiting for the decisions and orders of their respective family heads.
