Royal City.
Inside the luxurious and decadent palace, a pool of water churned violently.
The magma boiled, and countless strange phenomena of snakes and pythons suddenly appeared.
Instantly, golden water sprayed from the stone wall beside the pool, covered with sparkling stardust, dazzlingly brilliant.
As the two rivers merged, golden rays burst forth, revealing a naked middle-aged man.
His purple hair hung down, and his cold face revealed a distorted expression, especially a large wound on his neck that exposed his white bones, with thin, thread-like flesh slowly writhing.
Finally, a layer of human skin was placed over the wound and sewn on, and the injury to the neck healed immediately.
"The Divine Court's resurrection technique is truly extraordinary. Although fatal injuries can be healed, combat strength has not been fully restored, and there are some additional minor issues."
"Overall, this secret technique of resurrection is of immeasurable value."
Duke Vayne suddenly opened his eyes, his hawk-like gaze revealing admiration.
In this scheme, the three duchies and the Harvest Divine Court went to great lengths. In order to lure that mysterious outsider, he acted convincingly, making the other party truly believe that he had perished.
Subsequently, the extraordinary members of the Prome family, having been deceived, will inevitably rush to the ruins of Giant City to support Balor, the Balrog.
But the battlefield had already been set up, and it was too late for outsiders to offer assistance.
However, our side had twice the number of strong fighters to surround and attack, allowing us to turn the tide and eliminate a key part of the opponent's fighting force.
This move severed their left and right arms, causing them considerable pain for a long time.
"Smack!"
At that moment, the door opened.
Several beautiful maids filed in, barefoot and dressed in alluring maid outfits, to dress Duke Vayne and attend to him.
"However, the Duchy also suffered some losses, such as the knightly order that was wiped out during the raid on King's Landing."
After thinking it over, he realized that the gains far outweighed the losses. As long as the grand plan succeeded, the northern lands would eventually be recovered by the duchy.
Previously, the allied forces of the three countries dispatched elite knights to launch a surprise attack, creating the illusion of a full-scale offensive.
Now that the mission is complete, it's time to recall them.
Fortunately, there was an agreement among the extraordinary individuals, with the Sky God as their guarantor, that they would not harm their subordinates without reason.
This is also one of the reasons why the Prome family promoted the formation of the resistance army to resist the knightly order of the three allied forces.
"bite!!"
Suddenly, the magic clock embedded in the wall sounded an alarm, its pendulum trembling and conveying a message.
An enemy has invaded the principality's territory!
"How dare you invade my duchy's territory? Do you really think I've fallen?"
Duke Vayne sneered, both shocked and furious, and quickly went to check.
Without a doubt, the news of his faked death spread, inevitably leading the resistance army, lured by the Prome family, to launch a surprise attack on the duchy and plunder it extensively.
"Bang!"
The shelling continued, and cities under the jurisdiction of the duchy were bombarded. A large army of gold broke through the city walls and stormed into the city.
Immediately afterwards, an eight-legged spider violently crashed into the city, swiftly destroying the defensive magic circle with brute force.
"Giant God Soldier!"
Duke Vayne's face was solemn as she dispatched the main force to defend the area while simultaneously expending resources to restore her fighting strength.
Then, he learned of Red Wolf's death and was deeply shocked.
Although the Blazing Knights are not ranked high, their burst of power in a short period of time ranks first among the knights, and the commander of the troops is his confidant.
As a result, the entire army was wiped out?
Duke Vayne remained silent for a moment, but did not panic.
Since the divine decree was issued, a rare teleportation array has been built in the duchy.
He wasn't in a hurry to set off, primarily because his own combat strength had been severely damaged.
Then, he began to suspect that the other party knew he had been resurrected and wanted to lure him into making a move to murder him.
With checks and balances among the three principalities, plus the restless Divine Court, there are no secrets in the North.
Having just acquired a flawed resurrection spell, and barely having had a chance to enjoy it, it was snatched away by the enemy. Naturally, Duke Vayne had to be extremely cautious.
Furthermore, the resistance forces were weak, and their own men were sufficient to handle the situation. Even with the help of the giants, they couldn't cause much trouble.
While he was deep in thought, a group of knights who had received the intelligence immediately set off and were transported to the border of the Duchy of Vayne via a teleportation array.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
At this moment, in the city center that was suddenly attacked, inside a church, a six-pointed star-shaped magic circle was activated, and a squad of knights emerged.
The leading man had brown hair, purple eyes, a high nose, thin lips, wore thick armor, and carried a sword forged from holy steel at his waist.
Siren, Duke Vayne's nephew, is a half-step Gold-level combatant.
Upon seeing the arrival of reinforcements, a short, fat man, who looked like a pig, quickly calmed down from his panicked state and said with a fawning face, "Your Highness, the rebels have breached the outer city walls and are carrying out a massacre inside the city. Please, Your Highness, take action to suppress the rebels. You will be richly rewarded in the future."
“We are here by order of the Duke to take over the magic center of Black Iron City.”
Xiren glanced at him disdainfully, signaling the other party to hand over control of the magic circle.
"We will naturally cooperate fully with His Highness the Duke's orders."
The latter hesitated for a moment. If he handed over the city's magic center, all kinds of magical means would be in the hands of these people, and his value would be greatly reduced, and his escape options would be restricted at every turn.
Soon, with a thought, he severed his mental connection with Black Iron City, handing control over to the other party.
Xiren didn't say anything and walked straight out the door.
The knight, who was resting his hand on his sword hilt, glanced coldly at the city lord who was sweating profusely, and then followed closely behind.
The city lord, who was on the verge of a mental breakdown, patted his chest; his back was already covered in cold sweat.
