Chapter 90 Location and People
The Ardos Mountains of the Kingdom of Philan span the entire kingdom and divide the Kingdom of Philan into two geographically.
The east side of the mountains is a plain where many farming towns originally existed.
Following the order from the king of the Kingdom of Felan to clear up the country, many urban residents fled their places of residence, scattered into the countryside, or fled directly into the big cities on the west side of the mountains.
This allowed the army led by Xiao Yu to push forward with almost no twists and turns, easily invading the territory of the Kingdom of Feilan, and pushing forward a front line that was nearly 30 kilometers away in Lilliputian terms in just one day.
.
This allowed Xiao Yu's army to arrive at the only intersection of the Aldos Mountains in the Kingdom of Felan at noon the next day, at the foot of Eagle City.
Eagle City is a male city built at the lowest point of the Aldos Mountains when the Kingdom of Philan was founded.
The purpose is to guard this important place connecting the two places and prevent the imaginary enemy army from easily crossing the Aldos Mountains and going straight into the hinterland of the Kingdom of Philan!
Although Eagle City is located in the lowest part of the Aldos Mountains, it is also built on a mountain peak nearly a thousand meters high. It has an absolutely condescending position against the enemies below the mountain.
Looking down from the mountain, one can see a serpentine-like avenue of stone pavements leading from the foot of the mountain to the gate of Eagle City and extending to the other side of the mountain.
Normally, this avenue would be packed with caravans and people regardless of the season.
Agricultural products from the east go to the west through here, and a large amount of cotton cloth and handicrafts from the west are also sold to the east along this avenue.
The endless scene of this only land highway connecting the two places also makes the prosperity of Eagle City famous throughout the kingdom.
Several street markets outside the city that were spontaneously formed have now become satellite cities of Eagle City. The food, drink and entertainment inside are no less than those in famous cities like the Royal Capital!
However, with the arrival of martial law a few days ago, Eagle City suddenly became deserted. During this period, the civilians of Eagle City were forcibly evacuated.
Suddenly, the entire Eagle City and surrounding areas turned into a large military camp. Amid tension, uneasiness, fear and a high degree of love for the country, the officers and soldiers stood ready for the arrival of the terrifying giant!
Beria is a young extraordinary knight. As an orphan, he was adopted by the royal family as a child. He studied and practiced martial arts all the way, and graduated from the Royal Academy to become a royal knight.
Like many of his companions who had similar experiences, he devoted his loyalty to King Philan and was willing to give his heart to him at any time!
Although Beria is young, not yet twenty-five years old, he has already experienced hundreds of battles. He has been to the desert to kill bandits, and to the sea to fight against pirates.
I was also ordered to defeat monsters and personally removed the head of an extraordinary monster!
If it were any other war, even if Beria was asked to fight one against ten, Beria would have accepted the fight wholeheartedly, shouting that he would die for his country, that he would die gloriously and well, and that he would die well!
But now, we are fighting against a 180-meter-tall giant...
This made Beria's heart say that he was not afraid...that was simply impossible!
That was a terrifying giant who destroyed an entire country by one person, and destroyed the main army of the Kingdom of Feilan by one person!
No matter... no matter how much you advertise that the giant is not invincible, no matter how much you fool the soldiers below, the giant has no extraordinary power, but is just a monster of big enough size!
Neither Beria nor the soldiers under him believe it anymore.
Facts speak louder than words, and the giant's series of battles have deeply shocked every officer and soldier in the Kingdom of Felan.
If it weren't for the fact that the king of the Kingdom of Feilan was indeed a hero of his generation, and that his patriotic sentiments had been subtly influenced by him for many years, it would be hard for Beria to imagine how many troops could be gathered in Eagle City today...
"My king is a hero of the generation, and with the help of a wizard this time, we will be able to turn danger into disaster with united will."
Beria comforted himself and led the cavalry on the mountain road again for the first inspection of the day.
Suddenly, the war horses began to neigh uneasily.
Beria and his subordinates stopped together, and immediately realized something, looking towards the horizon outside the mountain with an ugly expression.
There, with the dust flying on the surrounding ground, a huge black shadow appeared.
"Oh God...the giant and his army are finally here!"
"Don't be nervous!" The corner of Beria's mouth twitched slightly. As an extraordinary knight, no matter how many times he cheered himself up, he really saw the terrifying figure in the world.
Beria found that he was still...still trembling with fear and sweating profusely!
"Retreat...retreat!" Beria whispered: "Don't be afraid, we are currently in the Aldos Mountains. In front of the rugged mountain road, the giant's mount cannot get up!"
Beria said, leading the frightened cavalry to turn around and run away.
On the wall of Eagle City, a large number of elite legionnaires crowded the corridors, and none of them dared to speak.
Many people were shocked by the giant's appearance and only dared to pray silently in their hearts.
"strangeness."
On a sentry tower, a black-robed wizard asked: "Why do the giants look so bloated today?"
"Hmm...are the dragon-slaying crossbows ready?"
"Final debugging has been done."
The black-robed wizard asked in a low voice, and soon an attendant answered him.
"Very good! Let the airships take off. They need to provide enough parameters to deal with the giants!"
The Dragon-Slaying Crossbow mentioned in his words was currently parked on the rooftop of the City Lord's Mansion, the tallest building in Eagle City.
The huge body occupies the entire rooftop.
It resembles an enlarged version of a crossbow, but its entire body is printed with complex runes.
Both the bow body and the bow body come from the corpses of powerful supernatural monsters.
The arrows of the Dragon-Slaying Crossbow are made entirely of bronze, and the arrowheads are coated with a layer of red paint.
This is a special crossbow arrow for the Dragon-Slaying Crossbow that comes from a distant empire and relies on their strong technical strength.
Once it hits the target, the front end of the crossbow will explode. It is said that the explosion is so powerful that it can destroy a castle and smash a hill!
If the Kingdom of Feilan was not a powerful country, I am afraid that it would not have the national power to complete the manufacturing of the Dragon-Slaying Crossbow.
And without the help of Futaba Wizard Academy, the Kingdom of Feilan would not have been able to obtain such a powerful dragon-killing crossbow!
The two were originally hostile to each other, but because of the emergence of the giant, they had to unite and let the terrifyingly powerful dragon-slaying crossbow reappear in this remote place.
I have to sigh that fate plays tricks on people.
At this time at the foot of the mountain.
Xiao Yu also drove his electric tricycle to the entrance of the mountain trail, and then he had to stop.
Xiao Yu raised his head and looked at the Aldos Mountains that spanned the entire Kingdom of Felan.
In his eyes, this was a tall mountain wall composed of continuous peaks that were at least ten or even twenty meters high.
In Xiao Yu's view, this was neither a towering mountain nor an insurmountable mountain, but it was actually blocking his electric tricycle!
Although this passage is the shortest place, it is still eleven or twelve meters high, with taller peaks on both sides.
It is said that this mountain road has been widened and repaired by the Kingdom of Feilan for hundreds of years. However, the widest point is only fifty or sixty centimeters, and there are several slopes. My electric tricycle is too big and I can't go up it.
