According to Bunian's explanation, the expeditionary force encountered elite troops from the divine realm while fighting in a hostile plane.
The leader of the army at that time was Christie, the Sword Saint of the Roland Empire.
After the opponent's god-level strongman captured Christie, he asked about the whereabouts of the Twelve Kings, the adventurers of the beheading unit.
The seriously injured Christie did not answer.
The people in the God Realm were so angry that they wanted to kill this ninth-level insect.
When Christie's life was threatened, the magic sword in her hand suddenly emitted a dazzling light.
Then a shadow appeared on the scene, holding a magic sword.
After seeing the phantom, the powerful gods in the divine world all showed expressions of fear.
Because that phantom was He Zeng's incarnation!
He Zeng's shadow wielded the magic sword and instantly killed several god-level warriors in front of him.
The seriously injured Christie immediately withdrew with the expeditionary force.
"Who was the phantom that appeared on the battlefield and saved Christie?"
An Nuo was confused at first, then he remembered something and understood instantly.
In the Sword Master family, only descendants who are recognized by the magic sword can become the new generation of Sword Master.
The origin of this magic sword has always been unclear.
It was rumored before that the real reason why the Sword Saint Family of the Roland Empire had been prosperous for so long was because the magic sword in Christie's hand belonged to a very powerful and experienced god hunter.
But some of the God Hunters know the origin of this magic sword more clearly.
The magic sword was given to the Sword Saint family by He Zeng long ago.
Because He Zeng’s lover was once a member of the Sword Saint Family - it was not called the Sword Saint Family at that time.
"No wonder Adonis didn't kill Christie when they fought each other before."
An Nuo also figured out a lot of things.
The Demon King must know the history of the Sword Saint family.
The Demon King's army and the Six Nations Alliance at the time would fight a war every ten years.
Adonis would definitely not kill Christie just for the sake of winning a training war.
Not only that, he also asked Christie to kill the spy among the demon generals.
“But with the Demon King’s immortality, he shouldn’t be afraid of He Zeng.
Instead of killing Christie in the war, Christie was allowed to return with the honor of having fought against the Demon King and being evenly matched with him. On the one hand, this may be to increase the confidence of the Six Nations Alliance.
On the other hand, maybe it was because He Zeng had already hooked up with Adonis a long time ago. "
…
When David and Bunian learned that the injuries on the Twelve Kings were caused by their sparring, they couldn't help but complain: "Do you guys always spar with real swords and guns?
This injury is too serious.
If we're just sparring, there's no need to kill someone in battle, right?"
After Annuo took his men to rest, the two immediately sent someone to pass on the news that Annuo and the Twelve Kings and others were safe, and then they stayed in Annuo's castle.
Anno summoned a shadow and went to the Roland Empire through a super-long-distance teleportation array to visit Christie.
At this time, Christie's injuries had been healed by the God Hunter's priest.
It's just that I'm lacking in energy and blood, and I'm still a little weak.
Therefore, he did not go to Valkham to participate in the war meeting that was currently being held.
After asking for some details, Shadow directly cancelled the summons himself.
Anno, who had already arrived in Valkham, also instantly knew about Christie's situation.
"He's fine and recovering."
An Nuo also felt a little relieved.
Christie is not only powerful, but most importantly, she is also a representative figure of the Roland Empire.
If Christie died in the war, it would be a huge blow to the morale of the Roland Empire army.
But since Christie is fine, Annuo will now study the expedition.
At this time in the meeting hall of Valkham, the generals of the expeditionary alliance's armies were fiercely discussing the next expedition plan.
Since the Divine Alliance has discovered the Expeditionary Alliance's secret actions, the Divine Army will definitely go to support the Expeditionary Force's expeditionary goals.
The expeditionary force wanted to improve its own strength through expedition because it was at a disadvantage against the army of the divine realm.
A head-on confrontation with the army of the divine world was not what the expeditionary force wanted at all.
Therefore, some generals believed that since they had already conquered several planes, they should make a strategic retreat.
Some people also believe that the initiative is in their hands, and they can adopt a fighting method of retreating when the enemy advances, harassing when the enemy stays, attacking when the enemy is tired, and pursuing when the enemy retreats. At the very least, they can involve the divine army that is several times larger than their own army.
But both approaches essentially lead to the same outcome - Angormloth's access to resources is restricted.
The war machine has been started, and more than a dozen countries and forces in the Expeditionary Alliance are operating at full capacity. The money and resources consumed every day are astronomical figures.
Once the channels for plundering resources from other planes are cut off, the Expedition Alliance will not only stagnate in development but also rely on the resource support of a few allied planes.
Therefore, resource acquisition must never stop.
To obtain resources, you must fight!
An Nuo thought about it for a long time and put forward a suggestion at the meeting.
"Break the whole into parts, and turn millions of expeditionary troops into adventurers, and send them to various planes at the same time!"
