Chapter 553: Famous and the Battle of Jutland (Subscription Request)

The aftermath of the Battle of Scarlet City was handled quickly. It was mostly just corpses, and there was nothing much to identify.

However, in order to prevent the infection and spread of the blood plague, Luo Yi set a fire that burned for three days and three nights, burning the place to ashes.

In order to appease the dead souls, the priests of the Church of the Sun God, under the leadership of the Red Dragon Bishop Virgil, held a large prayer ceremony to attract infinite holy light.

After three whole days, this place finally turned into a white land!

The Flower Territory's Royal Guards were already three hundred miles away, and were advancing at a speed far exceeding their previous marching speed.

War has always been about taking advantage of the situation, adapting to local conditions, and making specific arrangements based on actual conditions.

Before, Loy knew nothing about the background of the Grand Duke of Toledo, so he naturally took a safe approach, emphasizing steady progress, taking every step carefully, and not leaving any loopholes.

But what about now?

After a series of battles, Grand Duke Toledo has revealed all his true colors.

The battle of Scarlet City not only resulted in heavy losses, but also a sharp drop in morale. The dark clans under his command were all thinking about how to avoid the war and how to protect themselves.

Apart from anything else, Grand Duke Karen secretly received surrenders from many dark tribes.

On the surface, Loy and Grand Duke Karen are in a cooperative relationship. If there is no way out on the human side, then it is not impossible to find a breakthrough from the Grand Duke of the Vampire Clan.

Although Grand Duke Karen is known as a 'vegetarian', he is controversial among the vampires, has a bad reputation, and is despised by other dark races.

But that depends on the specific situation.

Now, these are two legendary grand dukes, and the only ones who can have a say in Loy and protect them.

So, reputation and face are really not important.

Grand Duke Karen naturally wanted to gather a group of subordinates. After conquering this half plane, they would also need to strengthen their team.

However, he still had self-awareness and did not make a decision on his own. Instead, he discussed it with Luo Yi.

Luo Yi didn't care about them recruiting subordinates, but some things had to be made clear. After conquering the demiplane, he would take the remaining humans with him.

The remaining survival issues of the dark race will have to be figured out by Grand Duke Karen himself!

Moreover, asylum is acceptable, but it cannot be promised lightly, and it cannot be accepted without merit.

Grand Duke Karen is not an ambitious vampire, otherwise, if he had changed his stance slightly, he would not have suffered so miserably in the Old World.

But as a vampire grand duke who had lived through a long time, he had seen and experienced a lot. After a little thought, he agreed.

Then, a piece of news spread wildly among the dark race that Grand Duke Karen accepted the dark race's surrender.

But he needs a token of his allegiance!

When the news spread, although nothing seemed to happen on the surface, secretly, the dark race was truly demoralized and each had their own ulterior motives.

As for the Grand Duke of Toledo, after losing a legend and dying once himself, his prestige fell to the lowest point.

This is the best time to enter.

Taking advantage of the time when Grand Duke Toredo is resurrected, the Royal Guards are directly pushed to the foot of the Blood Moon Castle, which further compresses the space for the vampires to turn around.

Of course, Roy’s rapid advancement was also due to the efforts of the tree shepherd Groot.

His legendary strength is beyond doubt. It can even be said that the accumulation of many years has allowed him to reach the limit of legend.

If he had the corresponding cultivation method and the necessary divine fire, it would not be impossible for him to reach the sixth level of demigod.

However, realm is realm, and combat power is combat power.

As a full-time forest grazer, he has great vitality, a long lifespan, and extremely fast recovery ability.

As long as they stay in the forest where they graze their livestock, they are almost invincible and can even produce rare treasures such as the Isis Wine Spring.

However, none of these can hide the fact that his fighting ability is poor!

In fact, the meaning of his existence is not to fight with others.

If he were really asked to start killing, he wouldn't even be able to get over it in his own heart.

But it would be easy for him to clear a path through the forest.

He raised his hand and waved it, and countless green magic powers spread out. The trees seemed to come alive and automatically made way for him.

But this is not the end. Countless tree roots grew rapidly, entangled, and were then modified by vines, forming a road paved with tree roots.

In terms of hardness, it is slightly worse than asphalt road, but in terms of toughness and smoothness, it is much better.

What's more, because of the tree shepherd's magic blessing, they also have a growth effect. Even if they are destroyed, as long as the tree shepherd is still in this forest, they will grow silently and return to their original state.

Just this one move directly solved the most troublesome problem of road paving for the army's advance, and the efficiency was incredibly high.

If the soldiers of the Imperial Guard had not had to rest and recover after a great battle, they would have been able to advance two or three hundred miles a day.

But even so, marching 150 miles a day and stopping to build camp was easy.

In his spare time, Luo Yi returned to the flower market to deal with a number of backlog government affairs.

And checked the war between the coalition forces and the empire.

There is nothing much to say about the battlefield of Verdun. Both sides tried their best. A large number of soldiers, both extraordinary and powerful ones, were poured into the battlefield as if they were free.

Various new and imaginative war weapons and legions from hell and abyss were thrown into the mix one after another.

Then, in this "meat grinder", it turned into blood and corpses.

It is said that because so many people died, the transportation capacity of the tributaries of the River Styx was severely tested, and the souls stranded on the battlefield turned into dark clouds, blocking the sky.

Even some sensitive warriors were harassed by the undead in their dreams. The pervasive power of hell and the abyss made the soldiers irritable and angry.

To alleviate this situation, both the Empire and the Allied Forces began to supply large quantities of liquor and stimulant potions to the front lines.

This can extend the soldiers' combat time, suppress mental illness, enhance muscle explosiveness, etc.

As for the serious side effects of these drugs, myocardial infarction, endocrine disorders, and large numbers of non-combat casualties, they are no longer a big deal.

It is actually difficult for them to survive until the end of the war.

In addition, there are some news that are not sure whether they are true or false circulating among the legendary strongmen.

Because the coalition forces were summoned too frequently and suffered heavy losses, they basically went without returning, so the big guys in the abyss and hell were not willing to accept Helka's "orders".

Many powerful beings already know that a bloody and cruel war is going on here. Some people even regard this as the "Second Blood Battle".

Of course, this does not rule out the possibility that some kings of hell are no longer satisfied with the previous summoning price.

Such rumors raise psychological expectations, leading to demands for more and better sacrifices.

For the Lord of Hell who is always scheming and plotting, this is a very normal thing to do.

As for why it’s not the Lord of the Abyss?

A group of lords whose minds are filled with killing and madness would not bother to use this method even if they could think of it.

But no matter what, the name of Helka spread throughout the multiverse and was known by more beings.

This is also well-known in the multiverse!

Compared with the stalemate on the battlefield of Verdun, the Battle of the Silver Sea had already come to an end.

Please note the wording that Roy used: "there was a result", not "the winner was decided"!

It is very intriguing because both sides suffered heavy losses, but both declared themselves victorious.

Luo Yi asked for all the information, quickly reviewed it, and then with the help of Deep Blue's analysis and calculation modules, he roughly figured out the cause and effect of the battle.

The Silver Sea is quite vast. Even if the coalition forces and the empire wanted to fight a decisive battle, they would have to keep testing, testing, and testing again...

Until an opportunity is found, forming a situation of having more people against fewer, and then fighting a life-and-death battle.

This time, the Empire was commanded by Admiral Scheer, who first formulated a series of harassment plans.

It was a plan to use a small number of ironclad ships and warships to carry out a series of hit-and-run attacks on the coasts of the Bonaparte Empire and the Kingdom of Sardinia, in order to lure the Allied Navy into continuous attacks.

Then, whenever the Empire found an opportunity, it would gather its main warships and attack directly, creating a situation of outnumbered forces and destroying the main force of the coalition forces.

I have to say that the plan was very effective and the coalition forces were badly suppressed.

However, they were also waiting for opportunities to try counter-encirclement, counter-attack and encirclement with the same superior forces.

Both sides were scheming against each other, and finally, on June 1, 316 of the New Divine Calendar, the largest-scale conflict and naval battle broke out in the Jutland Sea.

This battle started at 5:00 in the morning and lasted until 4:30 in the afternoon. First, a small group of navy engaged in the battle and strangled the enemy.

Then the fleets of both sides continued to arrive and fill the battlefield, which eventually developed into a decisive battle at sea.

In this battle, the ironclad ships and the magic warships kept advancing, chasing each other, and countless warships entangled each other.

Under the roar of artillery fire, the sea seemed to be boiling.

The blood and corpses of the soldiers covered the sea surface, tens of thousands of warriors were buried at the bottom of the sea, strong men were bleeding in the sky, and all kinds of powerful magic and artillery fire continued for a long time.

In this battle, the coalition forces suffered a heavy loss. They lost three magic warships alone, and the loss of ordinary warships was enough to fill the bay.

The Empire also paid the price of an ironclad ship, and the loss of ordinary warships had a clear number of eleven.

From this perspective, the Empire won the Battle of Jutland.

Because, in reality, they suffered the least losses, and in the end, it was the Sardinian Navy that fled in panic, bringing shame to the Helka World Naval Overlord.

However, from another perspective, Sardinia still has a solid financial foundation.

After losing three magic warships, they mobilized three more from somewhere, making up the total number of eleven magic warships.

As for ordinary three-track warships, there are even more.

On the Empire's side, an ironclad ship was sunk, and there was really no way to replace it immediately.

The result was that they were unable to reap the fruits of victory in the war.

The control of the Silver Sea is still mainly in the hands of the coalition forces.

After carefully sorting out the details, Luo Yi had only one thought in his mind: For the empire, this was another tactical victory and a strategic failure.

It seemed that such cases always happened to the empire. Keluoyi knew that it was not because the empire was not strong enough.

But it’s the lack of foundation!

This is also a problem that must be faced when challenging the old imperial aristocratic forces with the strength of a single country!

I have worked really hard to get to where I am now.

Of course, this has little to do with Roy.

The only good news is that with the end of the naval battle, maritime trade can continue and the export trade of Siren Port can also be restored.

However, just when Luo Yi finished organizing the information and was about to return to the Blood Moon Forest demiplane, Butler Hoover brought bad news.

The Imperial Ambassador, Lord Robin Water, came to visit and looked very unhappy.
