Chapter 286: French Civil War.
Chapter 286: French Civil War.
"Roar!"
Arden thought of this.
Finally, without any more hesitation, with a roar, the several legions that had been ready for battle boarded the warships they had built long ago.
Finally we weighed anchor and set sail.
At this time, looking at the dragon army who had been waiting for him for a long time on the mountain peak and were all extremely respectful to him, Arden glanced at them and turned his head away without saying anything.
It spread its wings and began to fly as well.
One after another, majestic magic-patterned iron-clad warships were loaded with all kinds of monsters that were extremely strong, aggressive, and had greedy eyes.
There were groups of dragons flying in the sky, thousands of them blocking out the sun.
This shocking situation is enough to strike fear into any kingdom.
The hundreds of humans and more than 30 magicians on the ship were shocked and held their breath.
-------------------------------------
"Get rid of them!"
The army wearing sea blue clothing, on the left side of the capital of the entire Kingdom of France, had about 20 people, including several powerful legendary magicians.
Each of them was covered in extremely dense energy element particles, and the person in the first place gave the order.
After observing the current situation on the battlefield through magic, he gave orders with satisfaction.
The Kingdom of France is now completely divided into two factions.
Both are legendary magicians who want to achieve the position of king and go one step further.
Because of corruption and the influence of the appearance of the devil, many top magicians are in danger and are conducting internal investigations.
The position of king was therefore temporarily vacant, and coupled with the plague that had occurred previously, many magicians had gone to allied countries for disaster relief. Without everyone's consent, the king could not be crowned.
Along with the nobles who were later found to be corrupt by the church, there were also various interest disputes and ambitious people, as well as nobles who were dissatisfied because they suffered losses in the process of controlling the plague.
The conflict over the division of interests led to this civil war, which involved nearly half of the magicians in the entire kingdom. Now only the church is sober and no longer demands further for its interests. The nobles who have let go of it can remain rational.
One of the nearly twenty legendary wizards of the Kingdom of Fran died in that plague war, as did a king, and there are currently 17 left.
A legendary sixth-level water magician won over other magicians who were at a disadvantage in the entire Kingdom of Falan, as well as three magicians who had just been promoted to legendary and wanted more resources. He fought a battle with about four traditional legendary water magicians from another faction.
More neutral parties and legendary mages watched coldly, because no matter who won, it would not affect them.
"boom!"
This is not a traditional bloody war.
It's a battle between magicians.
The earth cracked, and the entire left side of the capital of the Kingdom of France turned into a battlefield and was shattered by the horrific magic.
Regardless of which faction the hired warriors came from, all the adventurers who participated in this battle hid tightly in the corners or buried their bodies in the ground.
They were all just trying to get the mercenary money, but they had no intention of really dying here. The attacks between magicians were very blind.
Moreover, these noble wizards are only fighting for power and profit.
Have you ever seen a wizard who slowly casts a fireball and accidentally kills his own mercenaries?
Almost all adventurers who participated in this battle had this idea.
Therefore, in this war, except for the bloody conflicts among the institutional legions that were truly valued and cultivated by the Kingdom of France, the rest were almost wiped out by magic, which was a child's play.
The nobles were unwilling to send out even their own knights and sent out serfs instead.
Because it was such a joke, and no matter which faction the nobles belonged to, they were unwilling to actually waste their elite legions.
So the fight lasted for so long before the winner was finally decided.
It was the traditional water magicians who united together, and the 20-strong army defeated the miscellaneous mercenaries, together with one or two elite legions, and a large number of ragtag armies of other magicians who were dissatisfied with the interests of the water magicians.
After all, no matter how dissatisfied those other magicians with different attributes are, the most suitable magician for the entire Kingdom of France is still the water magician.
As there is not much difference in human talents and the small probability of a peerless genius appearing does not occur, the acquired training environment and the output of water-attribute resources are enough to allow water element magicians to dominate the world.
Although the two factions have been on the verge of a war, in order to prevent the entire Fran Kingdom from becoming a scorched earth, the legendary wizards did not appear on the battlefield. This was also their last bottom line and the tacit understanding they maintained.
When the situation completely tilted to the side of the water magicians, the water magicians, who were dressed in gorgeous sea-blue costumes and had a lot of flashing spell halos, looked at the other side which was composed of a large number of miscellaneous personnel and looked chaotic and messy.
There was a hint of contempt in their eyes, as well as arrogance and disdain after they gained absolute advantage.
The water magicians, who were advancing slowly under the command of several legendary magicians who were overseeing the entire situation, gradually defeated the defense lines that had been reorganized many times by other magicians who were already at a disadvantage, as well as the hundreds of thousands of miscellaneous troops they had organized.
Use a step-by-step approach to slowly gain the final victory.
-------------------------------------
"Click."
In a dark underground space.
A flash of flame was so violent that it made the surrounding area tremble, and the powerful aura was forcibly taken back before it could be released.
In the dark underground space, in front of the only bright fire lamp, there were four magicians with different expressions and even different decorations.
They are legendary wizards who are not water wizards, that is, the other side, the "heretics" in the eyes of water wizards.
Excluding the stronger legendary level 6 Fister, there are three left, two legendary level and one legendary level .
The four water magicians who were hostile to them, although the strongest one was only at the fifth level of Legend, their overall strength was far superior to theirs, and all of them were powerful veterans.
This war was called the War of Thrones by other surrounding countries, including those who knew the inside story of the war.
At least this is because the vacancy of the throne has led to a sudden power vacuum, and the nobles of the Kingdom of France have formed a game of politics and fighting for their own interests.
During this period, everything Fester did for his own ambitions was one of the major reasons why the initial chaos of the Fran Kingdom turned into what it is now.
Fister's face was gloomy, and he took the explosive aura from his body into his body.
The other three legendary wizards who chose to stand with him remained silent.
"The situation is getting worse and worse. If it continues like this, how long can we hold out? What about food? And what about casualties?"
"Have those guys we asked before made their choices?"
Knowing that he was now the only support of this side and the only one with no way out, Fister immediately regained his composure and began to ask the three legendary magicians about the tasks he had previously assigned, including the statistics.
"Among the 18 noble families, only three have made promises. According to the original agreement, they should have delivered the goods, but now they haven't delivered them on time. I will urge them again. The other 15 families are still vague at the moment."
"Under the current circumstances, our food reserves can last for two months."
"The situation is very bad. After days of fighting, we can only mobilize 15 or so troops out of the 1 troops. In addition, we lost another 8 due to the previous losses. There are more than injured people in bed who need treatment. At most, we can mobilize troops."
The three legendary wizards looked at each other and spoke calmly, with a hint of helplessness in their tone.
In this internal game of the kingdom.
Because of the previous vacancy of the throne, about three things happened in the entire kingdom.
The first thing was naturally the appearance of the devil, which was finally destroyed by the silver dragon, shocking the whole country. There were also evil incidents discovered all over the country by the holy warriors and church members attracted by the devil.
Second thing.
It was because of the vicious incidents exposed at the scene that a large number of nobles in the kingdom became dissatisfied with the church personnel, causing unrest.
The dark side was forced to reveal itself to the surrounding countries, causing the churches to take notice. Even though it had more than a dozen legends, the Kingdom of France had to make sacrifices and completely erase the darkness that had been revealed.
After all, it was originally a good kingdom that belonged to humans.
The churches paid attention to this place and arranged more manpower.
But it also resulted in a large number of losers.
How could these nobles in public allow their interests to be damaged like this?
This is why this succession to the throne, under the instigation of ambitious people, suddenly turned into a civil war affecting the entire kingdom.
A fuse caused by Arden has thrown the entire Kingdom of France into chaos, and everyone wants to gain greater benefits from it.
The three mages chose Fister, and if he failed, they would definitely be implicated, although they could switch jobs in time. However, they would definitely be ignored, and it might even affect their future mage research.
Fister himself is not a traditional water magician. In fact, he may be the most special among all the legendary magicians in the Kingdom of France.
Because he is a wandering wizard, although he is also a water wizard, he has also learned other spells. He is considered an outlier in the eyes of other water wizards.
Among more than a dozen wizards, his strength was obviously enough to rank in the top five, or even the top three. However, whether it was the deceased king or the previous king, when choosing their successors, the other wizards never considered him.
This is what Feist cannot accept, because his research has reached a bottleneck, and it is impossible to move forward without obtaining more resources.
"call."
Heard this series of bad news.
Fister's expression couldn't help but become much gloomier.
But he still endured it and acted as if nothing had happened.
The reaction of those fence-sitter nobles was within his expectations, but the loss of soldiers was really hard for him to accept.
"We have given generous rewards to those tribes that we have won over before and asked them to send their people to join the battle. As for those monsters and the enslaved savages, we need to train them quickly."
In the end, Fister just gave this order and said that he would solve other problems himself.
The three mages looked at each other and agreed.
