Chapter 373: Lightning Attack on the Golden Country, Louis's Determination



A few days after the meeting with Chief Jean and the Sword Master, the Roxy Empire passed the decision to send troops to the Quiet Forest.

By the time Louis knew about this, the army of the Lockheed Empire had already set out.

Although Louis had guessed, he did not expect their execution to be so high.

It is not easy to organize a group of soldiers who can go on expeditions to other countries in a short period of time.

As one of the three elf kingdoms, Quiet Forest still has its heritage even though it has declined.

Not to mention that an attack on the Tranquil Forest might also trigger the nerves of the Supreme Forest and the Hidden Forest, which have not yet declined.

But that’s what the Lokshi did.

This requires strong courage and execution.

From this point alone, the gap between the Tunisians and the Lokhi people is too obvious.

The Loxi people spent a lot of energy on internal communication when facing the trolls in the Giant Plains.

If it were in Unther or Loxie, they would say nothing and just throw out the Wrath of Nenos first to let the trolls experience the shock of their small empire.

Is it Ense's turn to intervene and mediate the war between the two countries?

Of course, even though he talks big, Louis knows that his way of doing things won't work.

A large-scale devastating blow with genocide as a prerequisite has never been carried out in the entire Star Continent, no matter how arrogant the race is. Even the most powerful forces will leave a glimmer of hope.

The only people who could do such a thing are those antisocial lunatics in the Church of the Abyss.

"I was tricked."

Louis smiled at Beatrice on the other side of the communication crystal and said, "They should have started taking action long ago."

Beatrice, who was on the other side of the communication crystal, put her hair behind her ears and said calmly, "No matter how good the allies are, they won't support each other. They must have been prepared before you arrived at the Rockhi Empire.

As for the fact that they told us that the Golden Country was taking action again, it was just an additional backup plan they made after making the decision to go on the expedition.

Whether you agree or not, it does not affect their overall situation."

Louis nodded.

He could understand the reason.

But he was still shocked by the other party's decisiveness.

After all, if this kind of thing is not done well, it is very likely that the three elven kingdoms will unite and launch a full-scale attack on the Rockhi Empire.

But they did it anyway.

Even when they started fighting.

Ask Louis and others for foreign aid?

It's a good thing to have foreign aid, but it doesn't matter if we don't have it.

Fight first and ask questions later, that's Roxy.

"I'll go help them. The situation is a mess right now." Louis said calmly, "Our father-in-law said that the seven disasters will end when our era ends. His expression was so calm that I forgot what it meant when all the disasters erupted at the same time."

Beatrice opened her mouth slightly, and finally sighed deeply: "You must be careful. The Golden Country is not dead, and it has been able to wear down those elves for so long. There must be something fishy going on."

"Yes, but the lips and teeth are interdependent. We really can't let the battle continue. Continuous bleeding will make us more and more miserable in the days to come."

Today, under coordinated management, the industrial chain has basically taken shape, and the production speed of various military and civilian materials has increased by more than several times compared with before.

The most intuitive example is that the favor of the goddess of commerce, which Louis had never paid attention to, has been growing since it fell on him.

However, Louis had no intention of changing his job to become a priest, as the effect of God's favor that he could fully exert was really limited.

Maintaining the smooth operation of the industrial chain before the full-scale war begins is Enser’s major policy at this stage.

Tunisia, which was the first to reach a cooperation with Enser on this point, expressed its full support.

No country is more eager than Tunisia to complete the construction of the entire industrial chain and material transportation chain.

To the outside world, Tunisians always say that the longer they fight them, the more the war fortress of Tunisia will be put into operation, thereby demonstrating Tunisia's tenacity in the face of desperate situations.

But only they themselves know that behind their iron will are the cries of many more compatriots who died early without being able to get sufficient resources.

A nation that produces many heroes is bound to be one that suffers from war.

Because the moments when humanity shines brightly are often inseparable from the turbulent backdrop of the larger picture.

It is often only in that kind of era that outstanding writers and celebrities are more likely to emerge.

Louis is well aware of this, and so are the Tunisians.

That is why the two countries will stand closer together, slower and slower, giving them more time, so that this war that is bound to break out can cause less pain and wipe away the tears and blood from more people's cheeks.

"The building is about to collapse. The Rockhi people are an indispensable part of our joint camp. Their strength, their technology, their long-lasting strategic depth, their supplement to the industrial chain... There are too many reasons for us not to give up."

Louis looked out the window.

At this time, the capital of the Rockxi Empire was brightly lit, creating a beautiful scene.

But for some reason, he seemed to smell the smell of gunpowder spreading in the air.

And wails mixed with crying and wailing.

"Louis, Louis... darling."

The voice coming from the communication crystal caught Louis' attention.

Beatrice said with a worried look on her face: "My dear, what's wrong with you? Are you tired?"

Louis frowned and said, "No, you know my situation. No one can be tired except me."

But Beatrice said: "Physical fatigue wears away the bones, but mental fatigue wears away the will. My dear, if you really want to rest, let our legionary commander go.

If the Unther Empire couldn't function without you, we wouldn't have survived until now."

Louis shook his head and said, "No, let me go."

He didn't say anything, just quietly looked at the peaceful city outside.

If you can hide behind and make a fortune quietly, who wouldn't want to hide behind? But he knew very well that the prerequisite for making a fortune quietly was that the scale was not big enough.

As long as the size reaches a certain level, it is like a bonfire in the dark night, so clear that it cannot avoid the ferocious sight of the beasts crawling in the darkness.

So, he won't hide away.

"Beatrice, before I grew up, you were the one who tried to buy me more time."

Louis' voice was very gentle, like the mountain breeze blowing gently at night: "Now let me help you and your people buy time. Don't worry, I am not a reckless man and I will not fall here."

Beatrice never forced him to do anything.

But Louis remembered very clearly who had arranged William, a model-level strong man, to be by his side early on when he was just reborn.

Who was it that sent Gandalf and Rudolf to him when he was negotiating with Sean and Fafner, the sapphire dragon couple?

During the battle in the Shadow Kingdom, he actually felt that he was always under the watchful eyes of some more powerful beings.

But that gaze was not a hostile one, but rather a look like that of an elder looking at a younger person.

Even now, he has the combat power of a demigod, but Beatrice still cares about his feelings.

Louis shook his head and said, “Just continue your ritual with peace of mind, Beatrice. After the Eye of Truth’s unsealing ritual, you will truly possess the combat power of a demigod.

It will take some time for the demigods of the empire to digest the benefits gained from the Tomb of Soldiers.

Right now my professional level is temporarily stuck at the peak of the model, and I can’t break through in a short period of time. That’s good, I can use the battlefield to polish my own foundation, accumulate experience, and achieve a breakthrough.

So just rest assured and break through. With more Saint Realms, we will have more chips to deal with the upcoming natural and man-made disasters."

Beatrice looked at him quietly, then nodded and said, "Be careful."

"good."

Spring of the 14453rd year of the Star Calendar.

Louis led a team of less than 50 people and rushed to the Quiet Forest battlefield after negotiating with Roxy's side.

The goal is to assist the Roxy people in their blitzkrieg of the Golden Country.

Location: Northwest of Quiet Forest.

Unlike the Unther Empire where it snows from time to time, the Quiet Forest has a subtropical climate because of the vegetation planted by the elves, even though they are at the same latitude as the Unther Empire.

There are rich vegetation and diverse species here, which can be regarded as a rare resource library among the stars.

"…Bullshit!" A Roxy soldier chopped off the bushes in front of him in dissatisfaction and said helplessly, "The so-called resource library is just a forest that maintains its original appearance, with many wild beasts, monsters, and mosquitoes, right?"

"Okay, hurry up and look for the goblin. Who taught you to talk so much nonsense?"

Another soldier lowered his voice and said, "Damn it, how can they fly? More than a hundred people can escape from this trap."

The two soldiers were members of the second group to reinforce the front line.

Unlike the first group of brothers who stormed the Golden City, the purpose of their existence is to prevent the goblins in the circle from escaping.

——And the mission that cannot be stated directly on the surface is to prevent the elves from disrupting the peaceful forest.

The soldier who just complained about the many mosquitoes here was named Robert, a member of the Arctic Giant Elephant family.

His blood gift gave him considerable strength, making it effortless for him to clear a path in the forest, but it also made him unable to endure the scorching heat of the rainforest.

From the moment he entered this area, he felt as if his body was weak and was sweating profusely.

The other soldier is a member of the Purgatory Dragon family named Blue Cade.

Although he was much weaker than Robert, he was more heat-resistant and felt like he was back home after entering the rainforest.

Lan Kaide said in a deep voice: "Hurry up and find their traces and contact your companions for support."

Robert said helplessly: "Why are we in such a hurry? Speeding up the exploration for the sake of merit will only increase our risk of death.

Besides, the rest of our group probably haven't dealt with the goblins yet. We are too far away from them, so even if we find any clues, we can't call for support, and we might even be sucked dry by the goblins."

There was a flash of fear in Robert's eyes.

He heard from the head of the group that every inch of the Golden Country was stained with the blood of outsiders.

After their growth and the death of the God of the Forest, those bloody goblins basically lost their sanity and became monsters that feed on raw flesh and blood, more bloodsucking than vampires.

Lan Kaide also had a serious look on his face, but he was not as frightened.

He said: "I can't wait for the support from my brothers in the group. If we delay any longer, the goblins will hide in the dense forest. Fighting in this rain forest, 100 goblins are more dangerous than 500 curse swordsmen."

"What can we do? We can't just go and die in vain."

"Before I came here, the squadron leader told me that one of 'their' reinforcements has arrived nearby and is ready to provide support at any time?"

"Them? Unther's shadow walkers?"

"He has an official name, so don't call him by the wrong name when you see him."

“But they are indeed shadows!”

"That's the shadow that helps us too."

"You're right, let's speed up a bit."

None of the soldiers who come to this battlefield at the first opportunity are truly afraid of trouble.

Even though Robert is not as good as the elite group in the first blitzkrieg, as the second group of support and shouldering the huge task of returning to defense, they will not be much worse.

Are you afraid of death yet you dare to come here to gain military merit?

Robert rolled up his sleeves and swung faster.

Before long, Lan Kaide's eyes were focused on the treetops not far away: "Robert, let's go over there."

Robert said nothing, but just swung the weapon in his hand faster.

Soon they arrived in front of the big tree.

Lan Kaide jumped onto a three-meter-high tree trunk, touched a dent, and frowned:

"The poisonous scale powder is a trace left by those goblins."

"Your eyes are still good." Robert jumped onto the tree trunk and unscrewed a small jar on his waist. A venomous snake spitting sound was heard, and a small snake as white as jade crawled out.

Its forked tongue kept touching the poison scale powder. After a moment, Lan Kaide's communicator vibrated slightly, and he answered directly: "Ruth, can you track it?"

A cold female voice came from the other end: "Okay, I have cast the spell, Xiaoyu will tell you the direction, don't forget to feed it cursed blood regularly."

Cursed blood, which condenses the cursed power of thirteen families, is an excellent evolutionary material for monsters cultivated by some cursed swordsmen.

The woman on the other side of the communicator is a member of the red phosphorus sand snake family. Although she is not good at frontal combat, the various functional snakes she has bred are a good match for scouts.

But considering the lack of on-site response capabilities, they usually hide in the back and rely on remotely controlled Vipers to provide support to the two of them.

The poisonous snake Xiaoyu needed a little cursed blood every once in a while to keep the curse effective. Robert took on the task of raising Xiaoyu relying on his thick skin and flesh.

And now, it's time for their auxiliary forces to take action.

Xiaoyu bit the wrists of both men directly.

As the spell wrapped around its fangs took effect, the two felt the world before their eyes change, becoming cold and pale.

"Tsk, tsk, it feels magical every time I share senses with Xiaoyu."

Lan Kaide looked at the poison scale powder under his feet, then looked around, and soon with the help of Xiaoyu's vision, he found the remnants of the poison scale powder.

"Let's go and catch up."

The remnants were so few that they could not be seen with the naked eye, but they were clearly visible in front of the venomous snakes that Ruth had carefully cultivated.

The two kept jumping on the tree trunk and soon found that the amount of poisonous scale powder remaining around was increasing, even to the point where it was visible to the naked eye.

“Finally found them!”
