Chapter 635: Surge (2/2)
That same afternoon, clouds covered the sun, and it was very windy. Prince Simon of the Marse Empire arrived at the Chambord City with 500 elite soldiers and several royal masters of the empire.
Later that night, Prince Sark of the Maze Empire also arrived with an envoy group……
On the third day, the No.2 Mercenary Group in the region, [Fire Blood Mercenary Group], arrived. Their group leader, Johansson, came to the Chambord City with masters from the group……
The third day…… The fourth day……
As time passed by, more and more people who were rarely seen by the public such as princes of the empires all showed up, and the soldiers who were camping on the other side of Zuli River were close to 10,000 people, and they were all elites from various empires.
Under the bright sun, all kinds of flags were fluttering; even the sound of bugles and smell of iron blood could be smelled.
When standing on the defense wall of Chambord, one could only see the colorful flags, shiny weapons, and the campsites that covered the plain. The green grasses almost couldn’t be seen on the other side of the river.
The soldiers and masters outside the Chambord City reached a terrifying number.
With a combined force, it wouldn’t be hard for them to wipe out a level 1 empire.
At this point, even an idiot could smell the strangeness in the air. Something definitely was going on.
This level of celebration was far beyond the limit of a king of an affiliated kingdom. In fact, even if an emperor were getting married, there wouldn’t be these many powerful people going to his ceremony to congratulate him.
Even though the King of Chambord was talented, and his glamor outshined all other people in the empire, he was still young and wasn’t that influential.
He could be counted as a powerful figure at Zenit at best, and he couldn’t affect other empire and their strength. However, why were there so many forces here to congratulate him?
In addition, the fact that the Zenit Empire allowed the elite soldiers from the Marse Empire, the Bordeaux Empire, and the St. Germain Empire as well as the elite members from the two biggest mercenary groups in the area to enter its territory was very strange as well.
The situation in the region was very intense, and chaotic wars could break out at any moment. Allowing so many elite soldiers and powerful masters into its territory was a risky matter. If wars broke out, these people could be really troublesome to deal with since they were powerful and were inside the heart of Zenit.
Even though that was the case, the royal family of Zenit didn’t show any objections, and they also didn’t send over any troops and masters to protect Chambord; they were literally asking a little level 1 affiliated kingdom to deal with all this alone!
“Are they this confident in the King of Chambord? Or is the Zenit Empire ditching Chambord like a chess piece? Or is the empire just going to stand on the sideline and watch, only hoping for the best?”
All these questions enveloped Chambord just like the dark clouds in the sky.
The King of Chambord’s wedding was like the key chess piece in a game that was being played by many different forces. This little chest piece was keeping an unimaginable balance, and many people’s endurance and will were being tested.
Once the chest piece was moved, the situation in the region would suddenly change, and undercurrents were going to surge!
The beginning of the chaotic and dark age that was filled with wars between empires arrived at the most northern city of the known continent. As wind and clouds moved around, a storm was brewing.
