Chapter 556: The Dawn of a New Era

After the wedding banquet, Crown called Charles and Soraka to his side and said with a smile:

"I'll give you a month's vacation, so you can relax.

After the holidays, there will be a lot of things to do and I don’t think there will be a chance to rest for a long time.”

"I understand, father."

Charles replied, and after thinking for a moment, he asked, "Father, what are your and mother's plans for me?"

As the crown prince of the kingdom, he understands the responsibilities that will rest on his shoulders in the future.

After this peaceful holiday, he must shoulder his responsibilities.

"Your mother and I discussed this matter a long time ago. I plan to let you join the Night's Watch for training first."

Soraka frowned slightly and said softly, "Father, the casualty rate of the Night's Watch is relatively high. Charles has no experience in life-and-death combat. It would be better for him to report to the Silver Dawn first."

Charles understood her thoughts and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, I'm already a fourth-level extraordinary person. I'll start with the most dangerous troops and I'll be able to convince others in the future."

The Dark Ages are about to come, and as the successor of the kingdom and the church, he must have a strong external image. Nothing can give people a sense of security more than experiencing iron-blooded killings.

Crown nodded slightly. His son understood everything very well. This was good. He didn't need to explain any more.

"According to convention, after a few years of training in the Night's Watch, one would transfer to the Silver Dawn and finally join the Knights of the Silver Hand.

My request to you is to establish connections with the middle and high-level military systems outside of combat and build up prestige among the grassroots soldiers."

"Joining the army is to give you experience, and your life safety is guaranteed.

But I hope you will use these methods as little as possible to avoid becoming dependent on them.”

As Clown spoke, he took out two necklaces and two bracelets:

“The necklace is a heart-clearing pendant that can protect against spiritual pollution below the seventh level.

The bracelet is a Vajra Pendant, which is used to defend against seventh-level law attacks, but the Vajra Pendant will only be activated when encountering a seventh-level attack, and cannot be the last resort.

You and Soraka divided the stuff."

Before my son reached level six, he only moved around in the area around Shattrath. There were no evil gods within a few hundred kilometers, and if there were any, he would be able to sense them immediately.

The purpose of sending the two rare objects was to prevent his son from being attacked by the evil god when he left Shattrath.

These two rare items are enough to defend against the attacks of the seventh-level evil gods for several periods of time. With such a long time, we will be able to retreat to Shattrath.

Clown took out a silver ring and said:

“This magical item can cover your body with an extremely thin metal film, which can defend against attacks below the sixth level.

In addition, Buster will follow you when you are on a mission outside.

Before you join the Night's Watch, I will tailor a set of high-grade armor for you."

The silver ring is not a rare object, but a clone of the Fire Cube.

When wearing this set of equipment, it is basically impossible to encounter fatal danger.

"Also," Clown offered his final regards, "If you find yourself in irresistible danger, immediately tell me through the Golden Light Dao Seed."

He did everything he could, and the rest was left to the children to grow up freely.

It was already midnight when Eliza returned to the manor after the meeting.

Clown reached out and hugged her, smiling, "Why did it take so long? From Nick's report, we know that the enemy is not that strong. It is well within our ability to deal with it."

"You are used to attacking alone and have forgotten how cumbersome it is to mobilize a large army."

Eliza repeated the plan discussed at the meeting and stated the request for assistance in reconnaissance.

Crown felt a little embarrassed. There were so many people and so many things to do, and he had never commanded a major war before.

Most of the time, he exists as an offensive force. He doesn't need to worry about so many trivial matters and can just rush forward with all his strength.

To deal with the invasion of giants, he just needs to rush over and solve the problem in minutes.

However, after the two worlds merge, the problems faced will become increasingly severe, and it will be necessary to train the troops under your command.

"I will send a few clones of the Fire Cube to Kronborg City to find out the origins of the giants. I hope there really is an evil god behind them."

If the evil god is discovered, it is time for his feast.

So far, only two evil gods have escaped from his hands.

When the evil fire god escaped, he was only at level seven. Cthulhu escaped because his true body was suppressed by the laws of the world.

If these two evil gods met him again now, he would be very confident that he could turn them into his own proficiency.

Crown repeated what he had said to Charles and sighed, "The child has matured and knows the responsibilities he shoulders. I am very relieved."

Eliza rested her head on her husband's chest and said softly, "If the evil god hadn't come, the world would be such a beautiful place."

"Without the threat of the evil god's arrival, humans would have fought each other. Now that there is strong external pressure, they appear to be united and moving forward."

When the interstellar spaceship carrying the members of the Silver Hand Knights arrived at the city of Kronborg, the battle was in full swing.

Kolos observed the giants charging towards the city and ordered:

"Aim at the largest giant with the black iron helmet and release the spear of the sun."

"receive!"

After the captain of the Star Realm spaceship, Erich Hartmann, responded, he pressed the red button vigorously and said with an arrogant smile, "Giant cubs, your luck has come."

A golden force of law shot out with the momentum of thunder, dragging a long flame tail and drawing a clear line of killing.

Large groups of giants melted under the attack of the law, but the main target flexibly rushed to the edge of the attack.

Golden flames burned on the frost giant's body, but were soon covered by icy blue ice and the flames went out.

Erich launched several more attacks, but his target dodged them every time.

Chlos shook his head slightly. The target could extinguish the sixth-order solar law flame, so he must be a sixth-order extraordinary being.

Extraordinary creatures at this level have amazing spiritual perception, and it is almost impossible to kill them through sneak attacks, unless they are crushed by overwhelming force.

“It looks like we still need to take action and land in the city.

Team members, prepare to fight! Let the enemy know that being big doesn't necessarily mean being strong!

Holy light shines everywhere, and glory lasts forever! "

"Holy light shines everywhere, and glory lasts forever!"

Erich was a little embarrassed. He thought he could make a great contribution, but who knew the result would be so terrible.

Unleashing a sixth-tier spell attack consumes a lot of energy and is not suitable for saturation strikes. He said weakly, "If there are enough star-level spaceships, we only need one salvo to eliminate these siege enemies."

However, his words were drowned out by the deafening roars of the Knights, and no one paid any attention.

Two interstellar spaceships slowly descended, and the members of the Knights walked out of the cabin with firm steps. They came with fearless faith.

The silver armor flashed coldly under the sunlight from the sky. Only a few hundred people walked out like a steel torrent.

"Thank God! Welcome Archbishop Kolos and the warriors of the Knights. The believers of Kronborg City have been looking forward to your arrival."

Archbishop Ivan, with a slightly hunched back, came forward to greet them. He had come to the parking lot and waited when his subordinates reported the arrival of the interstellar spaceship.

After failing to break through to the sixth level, his situation was similar to Leo's, and his body began to age at an accelerated rate.

After exchanging a few words of greeting, Kolos ordered a squadron to stand by, and then personally led another squadron out of the city to fight.

"Fight for my Lord!"

Ivan immediately ordered the city's garrison to follow up and engage the enemy, feeling a little disappointed.

The Knights of the Silver Hand are indeed the most elite extraordinary force, but the enemy is no weakling either.

The opponent is not a competent commander as he launched a rash attack without knowing enough about the giants. Now we can only hope that the losses in this battle will not be too great.

The team of 500 people sang hymns loudly and rushed straight into the giant formation like a silver torrent. A brutal hand-to-hand combat broke out.

At first, all the giants were defeated by the troops, and the soldiers continued to move forward by stepping on the corpses of the giants, but their speed became slower and slower, and they were soon surrounded by the enemy.

Two interstellar spaceships flew over the battlefield and continuously released Spears of the Sun to rescue the besieged troops. The squadron of knights on standby also rushed out and rescued the lost friendly forces.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Antony Cathedral, Council Chamber.

Kolos looked at the soldiers present with shame on his face, then looked at Archbishop Ivan and said with difficulty:

"Everyone, as a commander, I made a serious mistake of being arrogant and underestimating the enemy. I bear the unshirkable responsibility for the failure of this battle."

The giants are tall and wear animal skins that are as tough as ordinary armor. They can also condense ice armor on their body surfaces. Many times, the injuries caused by the warriors would be fatal to humans, but they are not considered serious injuries to the giants.

In addition, she led her team rashly deep into the enemy camp and was attacked by several level six frost giant leaders, causing great losses to the soldiers.

The First Squadron suffered heavy casualties, with nearly 30% of the soldiers killed directly, another 20% seriously injured, and the rest also injured.

Ivan said in a deep voice:

"The Archbishop's attack did achieve great results. The enemy's casualties were no less than ours, and he also killed a sixth-level frost giant.

What we need to do most now is not to talk about responsibility, but to sum up experience and adjust the way we fight."

He knew something about Kolos's past and understood that he was favored by the gods and had made rapid progress on the road to becoming a transcendent. He was a brave general, but not a talented commander.

The other side has never experienced a large-scale battle, and their overall perspective needs to be cultivated.

Just like this battle, even if you are taking the initiative to attack, you should send others to lead the attack while you prepare for support.

Large-scale wars last a long time, so you should have a rough plan in mind before the battle, and the troops' routes of action should also be simply planned.

In short, there were many problems, but fortunately the military strength was sufficient, so the entire army was not wiped out.

Kolos and the others looked better and began to discuss seriously and summarize the gains and losses of the battle.

Ivan nodded secretly. It was good that the other party was willing to accept suggestions with an open mind. He was just afraid of encountering those stubborn commanders, which would bring disaster to the entire army.

The meeting lasted until late at night. Chloë made a final summary and sighed:

"The air support from the Star Realm spacecraft also played a huge role. If we had been well prepared for coordinated operations in advance, this should have been a victory."

Erich echoed:

"If there are enough Saint Crystals, one Star Realm spaceship can accomplish the mission of destroying the enemy."

Kolos shook her head slightly: "Your wish is difficult to achieve. The original function of the Holy Crystal is to serve as the energy source of the Holy Tower of Light, stimulating the golden level of law attacks."

Later, the gods saw the possibility of widespread application of Holy Crystals and gave this super energy source to the city of Loch Modan for research.

Erich retorted:

"The Holy Crystal was created by my Lord from scratch, and it should also be possible to create an alternative energy source that can be used on a large scale."

"I hope so."

Five days later, under the escort of an interstellar spaceship, a huge fleet of airships landed in the city of Kronborg, and the main force of the church arrived at the battlefield.

Several clones of the Fire Cube transformed into gray seagulls and disappeared into the gray fog. They crossed the mountains and came to the coastline where the north wind was howling.

An ice boat left the makeshift harbor and headed north against the wind, with seagulls following in the sky.

Crown was conducting experiments in the underground palace of Moya Castle to verify whether the alchemical formula he had conjectured was accurate.

He sensed someone coming and asked without raising his head:

"Why are you here?"

Now, only the three of them have the authority to enter and exit the underground palace freely. He used a trace of divine power to detect and found that it was Eliza who came.

"Come and see how the experiment is going. I heard you say there were some results yesterday."

"It's all an illusion," Crown looked up and tried his best to smile.

After a busy day, I saw the dawn of victory, but in the end I found that there was still no solution for another manufacturing process.

And with his current knowledge of alchemy, he couldn't find a solution.

All his previous efforts had gone to waste, and he needed to redesign the plan to find a feasible alchemy sequence.

The ongoing experiment suddenly flickered, and the condensing silver chips emitted a large amount of smoke and turned into a ball of black slag.

"Failed again, but this is the norm."

Clown activated his divine power, and the waste residue was refined into nothingness under the burning of the sun's golden flame. He pondered and said, "What happened? You didn't even contact me with the golden light seed, but came here. I can't figure it out."

"It's a good thing. If I hadn't come here in person, I think it would have taken a long time before I could see you again."

Eliza handed over an official letter and whispered, "News from the Kingdom of Budamia: Traces of the evil god were found in the city of Dreyman, north of the Luna Church."

After taking the letter and reading it carefully, Clown said gently:

“It seems I have to go to the Kingdom of Budamia and set off early tomorrow morning.

I will continue my alchemical experiments for a while, and we will have dinner together tonight."

Eliza's eyes lit up and she smiled:

"I'll send someone to tell the butler to prepare a special dinner. I'll see you later."

Half an hour later, Crown looked at the silver chip in his hand in disbelief, feeling it was unreal.

Just now, after another failed experiment, he modified a few parameters based on his intuition. He just wanted to give it a try to see the effect, but he never thought that he would create the energy chip he had always dreamed of.

His breathing unconsciously quickened and he began to test the energy storage capacity of the chip.

Two hours later, Crown clenched his fist in excitement and laughed three times.

After rigorous testing, he discovered that the energy stored in the chip was only half of that of the Holy Crystal, but this process consumed very little power of faith, only one thousandth of the power required to make the Holy Crystal, and the other raw materials were relatively common materials.

Most importantly, energy chips can be connected in series to form energy modules with larger capacity.

He knew that a new era had arrived! In Moya Manor, Eliza sent a message with resentment: "Dinner time has passed an hour ago."
