Chapter 493 (2/2)
Pamela nodded. A group of people scattered around and returned to their respective research rooms. The dark elves followed her and entered the research workshop of the magic energy harvester.
Donne originally wanted to explain to him, but Fiona found him and dragged him back to the study of the Lord's house.
”Here comes the news!”
Fiona said excitedly: ”Lord nitro has made a public declaration! He supports Ellington's independence, refuses to accept Gillard's rule and claims to dig the truth!”
”Oh?”
Donne raised his eyebrows. ”Has Alex learned?”
Aurelia nodded: ”yes! Those spies must have used magic letters. Almost as soon as nitro made a public declaration, alinks had news.”
She pointed to some secret letters on the table and said, ”this is the message left by my informant in arlinks. It has just been sent by Ms. Hilton.”
”What's the situation now? How does Gillard react?”
”There's nothing my informant can do inside the palace.”
Aurelia shook her head and looked a little gloomy: ”although I can't see it, I can guess that Grandpa nitro chose to support Ellington and refused to accept his rule. It must be a great blow to him - Tarris's rich magic veins such as secret silver and refined gold are very important strategic resources, and he can't let go.”
Donne frowned: ”if tareth's strategic position is so important and close to Alex, that is to say, Gillard is likely to choose to attack tareth first at this time?”
Aurelia pointed to a brief map sold by Gallian and said, ”it's possible. After all, in his eyes, Ellington is just a small count leader, which is not justified. There is the scar of the holy sword in the west of Tarris, where the largest number of the third imperial Legion is, and the south is only six days' drive away from alinx.”
”If Gillard really chooses Taris, he can launch a blitz against Taris within a week, attack with all his strength, and even win the whole territory of Taris within half a month!”
After a pause, Aurelia looked a little strange and said, ”of course, the premise is that oberlich's imperial first Legion and Adrian's imperial second Legion all cooperate with Gillard.”
The first and second legions of the Empire are small elite legions, small in scale, but they are all elite.
The first imperial Legion stationed in the military zone of the outer city of yarinks is known as the sword order of the kingdom. There are only 1000 people, but they are all composed of the most loyal and elite Apocalypse soldiers. Their weakest members are at least silver apocalypses, who are really elite.
The members of the second imperial Legion include the imperial capital guard and the royal guards. The number of members is close to 5000, and their members are also composed of apocalypse. However, the standard will be relaxed to the black iron level. Even so, they are also elite soldiers with one as a hundred.
In contrast, the third imperial Legion has the largest number, up to 30000 people. The whole mark of the holy sword is their soldiers, but their average strength is the lowest, because the soldiers also include ordinary soldiers, black iron apocalypse. As long as they have the ability to read and write, are willing to join the army and offer loyalty, they can become a centurion.
The stepped change of combat effectiveness is also closely related to prandal's special environment. Quantity has little significance in the face of absolute power. High-end combat effectiveness is the decisive factor determining the direction of the war situation.
”How are they now?”
”They haven't appeared yet. The letter said that they have been investigating alinks these two days. Since Gillard's coronation, the number of missing persons in alinks has increased a lot. The guard has raised the alert level, but they still haven't caught a clue.”
Aurelia looked at Donne: ”remember the information from oberlich? Frank used the power of darkness and needed to devour life. Now Gillard looks very similar to him.”
Gillard and Frank are of course similar. Although the power of sonnathan and Marcus is different, their essence is the power corrupted by the chaotic breath. If they absorb the chaotic breath, their bodies will continue to pass their lives, and they can only be sustained by swallowing the lives of others.
Gillard is right now.
”How dare he! Why doesn't he surrender to me?”
The furious Gillard crushed the white neck of the maid beside him and roared, ”he is only a lord! And I am the king! Tarris must accept rule!”
After roaring, gasping, Gillard roughly inserted her right hand into the maid's chest, grabbed her heart, pulled it out, put it in her mouth and chewed slowly. At the same time, the residual vitality in the maid's body quickly penetrated into his body.
”No surrender, no meaning of existence, convey orders...”
Absorbing vitality, Gillard finally calmed down, the raised blood vessels on his face recovered, and his voice was cold like a cold wind: ”the king wants to level Tarris.”
