Chapter 985 The White Dwarves Attack
The chaos began to spread from the western part of Ulthuan. The battle for hegemony between Aislin and Loxia on the ocean, and the inexplicable battle between Abolash and Malus on the land were just the beginning of a grand war.
In the east, far away from the west, a crisis also emerged at this time.
Although the old Oude's physical condition is not as good as before, the monarch's duty is still to let the old lion go to the front line in person and lead an elite palace guard to respond to possible attacks by Druchi at all times.
Because of the sharing of intelligence, Ulthuan was not like the last time where the strong aura of chaos made it difficult for magic communications to connect. Charis soon knew what was happening in the west.
And this also made Ode breathe a sigh of relief. The emerging industries that have been worked hard for many years cannot go back to the past just because of a war.
Fight hard in the west. Anyway, the female prince of Tyran Loch gave Caledo as a dowry. It should be acceptable to Imric to sacrifice something in exchange for the Phoenix Throne.
Arao, who was driving a chariot back from the border of Nagaris, was very serious. He found Odd, who was drinking tea and observing the map, and explained the latest situation in the west.
"Marus Blackblade brought a large number of Druchi's cold lizard knights in an attempt to bypass the fortress stationed by Masno and go straight to the hinterland of Tyranlock."
This news surprised Odd, but he quickly waved his hand, feeling that it was a bit nonsense. With the stupid discipline of the cold lizard knights, entering Tyronlock must only want to hunt down civilians, as long as Adira orders the country to surround a few major buildings. Urban defense is unlikely to achieve much success.
Moreover, the risks involved in bypassing the fortress are not small. As long as Masnot gets rid of the cannon fodder in the siege and deploys his troops to attack Malus, Druchi's elite cavalry will inevitably suffer heavy casualties.
"Aidila is willing to be used as bait to draw out Druchi's cavalry power? What is Caledo's reaction?"
Arao didn't know what to say for a moment. He couldn't say that a vampire appeared in Caledor for no reason, then participated in this war for no reason, and stopped the Druchi Cold Lizard Knights alone.
Seeing his grandson's hesitation, Odd was a little angry for a moment and roared like a lion teaching its cubs.
"If you have anything to say, tell me why the son of Charis is so hesitant like an inner circle sissy."
"Ahem, the Cold Lizard Knights were stopped by a... um, vampire."
"What?" Not only Odd, but everyone in the camp was stunned by Arao's words. It was strange enough for a vampire to participate in the war.
What's even more strange is that this vampire was able to stop the Cold Lizard Knights by himself?
Even though Asur belittled the cold lizard knights, the actual war history showed that these Druchi knights who had lost their senses were stronger than most cavalry, and they were the elite of the Druchi elite.
Coupled with the fact that Malus Black Blade has a great demon sealed in his body, who is this?
Once again, he was sure that Arao had not said anything wrong. Either a vampire army appeared, or a vampire stopped the cold lizard knight army.
Odd covered his forehead and rubbed his temples, feeling a little headache.
He seemed to have judged the form of this war too dangerously before. According to his impression of Imrik, Caledor's dragon boy often only had four points in apparent strength, and the remaining six points were used to achieve other goals. And hidden.
Now that a vampire has defeated Druchi's elite army, how many things does he hold in his hands, and what purpose is behind deliberately hiding these powers.
The position of Phoenix King? It doesn't seem right now that I think about it, what exactly does he want.
The appearance of Abrash made Odd think a lot. Imric should have at least two guys with similar combat capabilities in his hands. The whereabouts of the Shadow King have not yet been announced. This crow lord alone is enough for Malekith. I have a headache, and now there is another vampire, Drucci is really pathetic.
The good news in the west has made Odd step up its efforts to stabilize the defense. Since Caledor is so strong, let Imrik destroy Druzi alone. What we have to do is to stop Malekith from thinking about it. Dongfang thought, try not to hold back as much as possible.
Of course, there will always be people who have objections to this, even if these people are strangers to Aude, they never expected to witness this scene in their twilight years.
It was another communication from Iris. Elsharion, who had become the prince, looked serious and cold as always, but his tone of voice rarely fluctuated when he spoke.
"An army of dwarves has arrived at the outskirts of the Drift Islands. They call themselves the Army of the Ancestors, and their leader is the white dwarf Grimblindel. They ask us to provide a port to anchor near Nagaryth, in the name of Snorri Whitebeard. Pay vengeance to Malekith."
Odd was completely confused at this time. He didn't know much about the White Dwarf, but some rumors said that the strongest warrior of the dwarves was the revengeful incarnation of Snorri Whitebeard in the mortal world.
But this is supposed to be a civil war among the elves. It's okay to have the terrifying ancestor of the blood dragon first. Now the dwarves are also involved. Are they really treating Ulthuan as a public toilet?
Odd pondered for a moment, but did not tell Eltharion whether it was possible.
The closest port to Nagaris is within Charis.
He would take a high reputational risk by letting a group of dwarves land on the border.
But joining a group of capable people who just want to kill Malekith seems to be a good temptation.
The shrewd old prince had an idea. Charis firmly supported the decision of the Phoenix Court. As long as Draknir, who acted on behalf of his father, agreed, the dwarves would land here and provide the Nagaryth map free of charge.
In fact, Eltharion also had this intention. Having more power is always a good thing, and the one who had the deepest grudge against the dwarves during the Longbeard War was Caledor.
Even if this ancestral army, after liquidating Malekith, then thinks about liquidating the ancient hatred and Assur together, it would still be looking for trouble in the west first.
Overcoming the current crisis is the top priority. At least Asur and the dwarves still have room for mediation and relief, which is incomparable to Druzi.
After the two submitted the matter to the Phoenix Court, Draknir responded quickly, and the East fully cooperated with the Ancestral Army's liquidation operation.
Before Malekith's death, the white dwarf Grimbryndel was Assur's best friend.
Soon, a huge dwarf fleet comparable to the Eight Peaks Mountain Expeditionary Force, led by a white flag with a bright yellow ancestral face, headed towards Charis, a place where the dwarves had never arrived.
A dwarf with hair and beard as pale as snow stood on the deck of a steel steam ship, staring into the distance, as if recalling the good times we had experienced together, those days of drinking and talking, those moments of laughter...
But all these hesitations disappeared after the rough hands grasped the battle axe. Another Ax of Grimnir, eager for revenge, was calling the white dwarves to settle this betrayal! (End of chapter)
