"Reinforcements?"
After hearing the succubus' words, the atmosphere froze for a moment.
Of course, they had already anticipated the possibility of reinforcements coming to support the Hebrew Empire.
However, they did not expect that the reinforcements would arrive so quickly.
They had just captured a city on the outskirts of the Hebrew Empire when reinforcements to support the Hebrew Empire arrived.
"Who are the reinforcements?"
"The Order of the Rose."
Hearing the succubus' words, everyone frowned slightly.
Apparently, this was the first time they had heard the name.
"Order of the Rose?"
Of course, this is because the "Cult" does not belong to this continent.
It comes from the more distant western continent.
The leaders looked at each other in bewilderment.
Even the usually calm King of Atlantis frowned slightly, and he took a deep breath.
The succubus tangled a strand of hair between his slender fingers and he licked his fangs.
Of course, the reason why she had such a reaction was also because of the leaders and kings.
She was interested in their reactions to the loss of His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh and having to figure out their own countermeasures.
"That's the army coming from the west, from another continent to provide support."
"I heard that they once fought alongside the Hebrew Empire and against the Greek Federation together."
"According to the information I received, they sent the 'Saint of Thorns' and the 'Blood Rose Cross Legion', and their vanguard has already arrived on the other side of the valley."
"In short, the Hebrew Empire's defense force has been strengthened a lot now."
She paused deliberately, admiring the serious looks on everyone's faces.
"It is said that...the Saint Lady is carrying the holy relic bestowed by the Pope himself."
Upon hearing this, Mayan Lord Bigtik immediately shouted.
"But how is this possible?"
"Before the operation, we clearly conducted a survey of the outer cities of the Hebrew Empire."
"They were not prepared for this."
"And, if it's as you said, then the temple of the Rose Order is thousands of miles away, right?"
"Even if we travel day and night, it's impossible to reach the Hebrew Empire in such a short time!"
After hearing Lord Maya's words, everyone nodded slightly.
Because, according to the information they had previously obtained, the Hebrew Empire was not prepared for any war.
And their big victory today proves this point even more.
As the army was about to enter the border of the Hebrew Empire, they also sent out scouts.
The scouts' reconnaissance reports showed that the border garrisons of the Hebrew Empire had not even entered wartime alert.
The sentries on the city walls were as lazy as ever, and the flags on the walls were tilted all over the place.
Even when the city was breached, there was not a single figure among the magicians who were supposed to be stationed there.
Even Marasia added that when she jumped onto the city wall, she only saw about a dozen magicians, and the remaining half of the magicians were even on their way from the city to the city wall.
Even the prisoners they captured confirmed this.
"We, we didn't receive any instructions to prepare for war!"
"Please! Don't kill me!"
Therefore, after learning this, the leaders had a general idea of the current situation.
"Yes, it seems they are well prepared."
“No, but it can’t be said that they were prepared, but they had already made such a plan.”
"That is, the plan to abandon the outer cities."
The man who spoke was Montezuma of the Aztecs, and he squinted his eyes slightly.
The barbarian king, who had been silent just now, suddenly spoke.
"Very likely."
"This is very consistent with the style of these misers. They always want to keep the important things first."
"Things that are not important to them, like this city, will just be abandoned at will."
When the Mayan Lord Bigtik heard this, he let out a long sigh.
"It seems the Hebrews are even more cunning than we thought."
"If the succubus hadn't brought back the news, I'm afraid we would have suffered heavy losses if we launched another attack after resting."
Marasia, on the other hand, looked thoughtful and calm. After a while, she turned to the succubus and asked, "Do you know how many people are in this cult?"
The succubus tilted her head and looked diagonally upwards.
"Thousands of heavily armored soldiers and hundreds of priests."
"That is, magicians, but the level of their magic is unknown to this lord..."
The succubus said this, drawing out her voice and glancing at Nan Tong.
"Only he can sense it."
"However, the magical energy in those priests is at least stronger than that of magic instructors. This is what I can feel."
"Also, I have to remind you."
At this time, she narrowed her eyes slightly, and the expression on her face became somewhat dangerous.
"These priests are able to use some strange magic."
"You've seen it, old man. Tell me what you've seen."
After hearing what the succubus said, Nan Tong nodded and continued.
"Yes, just as the succubus said."
"I saw it with my own eyes when I went to the border city of Holy Egypt with His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh."
"They can use some strange formation to absorb my magic spells."
"Although they all died suddenly, my spell did not have the effect it was meant to have."
"Since their defensive spells are so unique, I'm afraid their offensive spells will also be beyond our imagination."
Nan Tong said this with a serious expression on his face.
Moreover, he added.
“That’s not all.”
"Now, the reason why the Hebrew Empire knows our movements is probably related to the Rose Cult."
Upon hearing this, Arthas, the King of Atlantis, nodded vigorously.
"Master Man Yue is right."
"In this way, everything that happened today can be explained!"
"I have a plan, please listen to it."
"We can use our large army to capture half of the outer cities of the Hebrew Empire."
"There are still many caravans and food supply cities along their outskirts."
"After we weaken the Hebrew Empire's caravans and logistical food supplies, we will gather our forces and launch an attack."
"This way, our chances of winning will increase significantly."
"Besides, nowadays, we don't know much about the Rose Order."
"I'm afraid we have to ask the Succubus-sama to find out more information for us."
When King Arthas of Atlantis said this, he bowed slightly, and the succubus glanced at Nan Tong, then looked a little sad.
"If His Majesty the Saint Pharaoh were here, he would never let me do such a dangerous thing again."
"Without His Majesty the Saint Pharaoh, the power of the Coven is gradually declining."
"But you are the legacy of His Majesty the Saint Pharaoh."
"Okay, I'll lead the team there again."
