If he didn't have to rely on those soldiers to resist those green-skinned monsters, he would even want to kill those soldiers directly.
“Tatta…Tatta…”
“Tatt! Tatt! Tatt—!!!”
The sound of horse hooves came from far away and became louder and louder. The whole earth was shaking. Village chief Raleigh stood there in a daze with fear on his face, and Walter, who was leaning against the window, was also shocked!
Such a massive clatter of hooves, such a powerful vibration... This couldn't possibly be one of those cavalry squads that came to recruit soldiers. This was the Knights! Only the Knights could have such a large scale!
Walter's expression became serious. He quickly ran out of the house and looked into the distance. Through the layers of forest, he saw a huge team he had never seen before!
Thousands... no, tens of thousands of cavalrymen in silver robes and armor passed by the hills. Among the cavalrymen, there were sometimes missionaries in black robes. The flags of this legion fluttering in the wind were embroidered with the dark sky and the bright stars!
What kind of army is this and why have I never seen it before?
Walter racked his brains in his mind but couldn't figure out what the flag meant.
But Walter was sure that this was definitely not the army of the Fatsi Kingdom.
The military flag of the Fatsi Kingdom is a griffin with spread wings. That is the military flag of the Fatsi Kingdom. The current starry sky flag feels unfamiliar to Watt.
This is a remote and poor area with no knowledge or education at all. Moreover, the Church of Eternal Night has mainly started in big cities in recent years. Beliefs such as the Wise Sage and the Lord of Thunder are still prevalent in border villages. It is normal for the Church of Eternal Night to not know about this.
"Village Chief Raleigh, it's a large cavalry unit, with at least tens of thousands of people." Water said as he watched.
Walter was the 'savior', able to see the cavalry through the forest, but Village Chief Raleigh couldn't see anything at all. When he heard Walter say this, he was immediately startled and asked, "Are they coming for our village?"
Village Chief Luo Li was extremely nervous. "My goodness, tens of thousands of people! What should I do?"
Hearing this, Walter laughed and said, "Don't worry, this army should be going to the war and passing by us. It's okay."
Walter continued to watch the troop's route, but unexpectedly, someone in the army seemed to have discovered something and noticed Walter's spying.
Soon, a small part of the cavalry team dispersed and turned into a cavalry regiment of more than 300 people, charging towards Water!
Walter was looking at the large army, trying to find the general of this army, and did not notice that three hundred people quietly left the team and rushed towards him.
"Where did this wizard come from, daring to spy on the army?!"
Suddenly, a deafening shout sounded in Walter's ears, which made Walter's ears hurt. Before Walter could react, the knight had already rushed towards Walter!
"Can a mortal be my opponent?"
Walter did not take the charging knight seriously. When he was about to draw his sword and kill all the invaders, he suddenly found that the knight was right in front of him!
“Puff!”
The lance directly pierced Walter, lifted him up with force, and instantly pierced Walter's chest and heart!
The destined hero Walter, who thought he was the "savior", died completely.
Raleigh, who was standing there and watching the whole scene, was so shocked that he could hardly express it in words. He could only kneel on the ground, trembling, and dared not look directly at the cavalry team of 300 people.
The young leader of the cavalry team rode up to Luo Li with a proud look on his face. He pointed his whip at Luo Li and said, "From today on, this village will fly the Starry Sky Flag. Do you understand?"
Before Raleigh could react, the officer shouted again, "King Fatsi was unjust and has been beheaded by our king. His head is hung on the walls of Nantes. Our king has ascended the throne and founded the Kingdom of Eternal Night. The angels have personally crowned the king. From that moment on, you are all residents of the Empire of Eternal Night."
After saying that, the officer turned around and called on the soldiers to start retreating, to keep up with the main force and head to the new battlefield together.
The Eternal Night Empire's soldiers were divided into two groups. One group went to clear out the deep divers on the coastline, while the other group went to "recapture" the city-state.
Compared to fighting the Deep Ones, the soldiers prefer fighting humans.
There's nothing you can do about it. Sometimes humans are just like this, bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
I am timid when fighting against the deep divers, but I will strike hard against the human defenders!
Raleigh looked at the cavalrymen galloping away, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes.
He did not feel any sorrow for the fall of the Fatsi Kingdom, nor did he feel any joy for the establishment of the Eternal Night Empire.
There are only two words in his mind now: confused.
He felt very confused. The road ahead was uncertain and he had no idea what his future would hold.
This is not just Raleigh's own opinion, but the opinion of most residents under the rule of the Eternal Night Empire.
The future is uncertain.
......
With the establishment of the Eternal Night Empire and the speed at which it dispatched troops, the former territory of the Fatsi Kingdom was quickly cleared out, and only one voice remained throughout the country, that of the Eternal Night Church.
The Emperor of Eternal Night, formerly the Count of Kabaren of the Fatsi Kingdom, sat on the throne, looking at his own territory, sighing deeply, and couldn't help feeling that the world was somewhat incredible and dreamlike.
A few years ago, he was just an ordinary nobleman. Although he was called a count, he was not noticeable at all in Nantes.
The reason why he believed in the Lord of Eternal Night was that he intended to cultivate a "cult" so that he could secretly make money for himself and supplement his family expenses: the nobles had no surplus food.
