Chapter 297: Sudden Change (2/2)
Although mage was one of the dominating professions, there were a lot fewer mages than warriors. Mage was an expensive and noble profession; a lot of resources were needed to cultivate a mage as the amount was comparable to equipping and maintaining a heavy cavalry troop. Therefore, there were a lot fewer mages in this competition as any loss would be devastating. Fei didn’t expect the Bulan Kingdom to have such a powerful mage!
The armor this girl was wearing was a powerful magic set. Circles of red magic energies surged around Princess Cindy like the waves in the ocean, and Fei who was a level 54 Barbarian couldn’t clearly detect the level of her.
She was someone who Fei had to respect.
As if she sensed the stare, Cindy looked at Fei as lights flashed in her eyes. It was an advanced detection magic. Although the powerful magic rapidly scanned Fei’s body, the princess of Bulan shook her head. She thought she was hallucinating since she didn’t discover anything.
Fei who was under the cover of the cloak smiled.
Only a master warrior like that mysterious man can see through his Barbarian Force Field. In addition, there was a lot of difference between the power structure of the warriors and mages on Azeroth and the seven professions in Diablo World. The seven different kinds of power from Diablo world didn’t contain any warrior energy or magic energy surge, so they were hard to detect.
Fei soon left the No. 14 Stage with Angela; he didn’t stay for the battle.
The king was sure that Matt Razi was correct – this princess would definitely be able to get into the top 3. No one in the battle region posed a threat to her.
“Didn’t expect to encounter so many powerful people when I just wanted to spend some time with Angela. Looks like this competition isn’t as boring as I thought.”
Fei slowly got interested in the competition.
After they wandered around other stages, it was already noon. Fei and Angela got to a nice restaurant and was planning to enjoy a peaceful lunch.
As they sat down, the four main battle legions of the empire – [Whip of the Thunderlord], [Anger of the Fire Lord], [Gigantic Wood Legion], [Blizzard Legion], that surrounded the camp area started to make moves as sky-shaking bugle noise sounded. Everyone in the camp area hard it.
“This bugle……” Fei’s expression changed color: “This is the warning signal for a full-on war. What happened? This noise…… could it be that the battle between Spartax and Zenit on the frontier changed?”
Thunder-like bugle noise sounded throughout the camp area and the capital.
Fei no longer was in the mood for a chill lunch. After he and Angela quickly ate some food, they returned to Chambord’s campsite.
Soon, a shocking news spread in the camp area.
After more than half a month of battle around the border, the situation suddenly worsened. The troops of Spartax Empire suddenly broke through the defense line Zenit sat up at the southern key location – Razer City, and one of the ten main battle legions [Night Snow Legion] which had 20,000 elite soldiers got wiped out. The second most famous general at Zenit – Bolun Zhang was not willing to retreat; he felt like he had failed the emperor’s trust. He battled the enemy with his 100 guards and stayed at Razor City. Now, no one knew if he was dead or alive.
In one night, Spartax Empire suddenly sent in reinforcement, and more than 60,000 elite Spartax soldiers pushed 150 kilometers into Zenit’s territories. Three southern regions of Zenit fell into the hands of Spartax. The political structure of the three regions got torn, and tens of thousands of officials and noble people got killed. The war had spread into the core of Zenit, and numerous homeless people and defeated soldiers rushed toward the capital. Without proper defense and hard terrain, Spartax soldiers pushed into Zenit like a hot iron stick that stabbed into a block of cheese.
To Zenit, the situation turned to the worst.
If the Spartax soldiers pushed forward for 150 more kilometers, they would be at St, Petersburg.
The news shocked and scared a lot of people.
