Chapter 54 War is Coming



In the dusk jungle, John Wacho was the leader of the team this time.

"Lord John, we are approaching Black Stone Territory. How dare the Marquis send our Red Glow Regiment to conquer such a desolate territory."

“Karl, don’t speculate on the deeper meaning of the higher-ups. All we need to do is unconditionally carry out the Marquis’s orders.

Well, instead of complaining, why not check the situation ahead first?"

"Hehe, Lord John has already been sent out in advance, and he should be back soon."

After Karl finished speaking, a knight apprentice was already running towards here.

The knight apprentice ran up to John and Karl and respectfully performed standard knight etiquette.

"Good day, Lord John, Lord Karl.

We have discovered a town built by the Blackrock Territory."

John Wacho interrupted the knight apprentice's report:

"You mean they built a town in this barren land of Blackrock Territory?"

Carl was also very surprised. The absurdity of combining Blackrock Territory and the town together was equivalent to the Koreans successfully applying for the Spring Festival to be listed as a world heritage site.

"Not only that, my Lords, but that town is even more luxurious than most. Furthermore, the building material seems to be the same obsidian magic crystal that has been circulating in the Sapphire Territory recently."

"Obsidian magic crystal! The obsidian magic crystal that costs five gold coins a piece! The whole town is built with that material?"

"I don't know, but at least the city wall is made entirely of obsidian magic crystals."

After hearing this, John couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

"Is there any other information?" John Wacho asked casually. He didn't think there was anything shocking in Blackrock Territory.

"Lord John, does Mizuki count?" the knight's apprentice reported cautiously.

John Wacho could no longer remain calm at this moment. He grabbed the knight apprentice by the collar and asked:

"You should know that lying about military intelligence is a serious crime! I won't punish you if you don't find any useful information! After all, it's normal for Blackrock Territory to have nothing worth discovering."

"Lord John, I can guarantee that I saw all these things with my own eyes. I swear to the God of Light."

After John Wacho put the knight apprentice down, his expression was a little dazed. There was no description of this information in the intelligence?

Was it an omission? Or was it newly built? However, John Wacho did not think that the intelligence officer had betrayed Eric.

"You go down first." John Wacho waved the knight apprentice away and began to weigh whether to continue this mission.

"Master John, I think this is good news!" Carl's excited words interrupted John Wacho's thoughts.

John Wacho looked at Carl in confusion, wanting to hear what he thought about this sudden situation.

"Lord John, how many gold coins do you think it would take to make the Obsidian Crystals from the Sapphire Territory? Three gold coins a piece! How many Obsidian Crystals would it take to build a city wall? How many gold coins would it take! So, Lord John, do you think it's possible to build a city wall with Obsidian Crystals?"

John Wacho nodded after listening to this. He was so surprised because this matter was too unbelievable.

After all, the armor he is wearing now only contains a small amount of obsidian magic crystals, but the price has been driven up to the sky.

"Actually, I wasn't sure if the Blackstone Territory's walls were actually made of Obsidian Magic Crystals. But when that knight apprentice said they wanted a water tree, I was 100% certain they were faking it!"

Carl's confident expression made John Wacho unconsciously believe in this young apprentice knight.

"Master John, think about how long it will take for a water tree to mature after it's been planted? Hundreds of years!

"Has anyone planted a water tree in Blackrock Territory before? No! So where did this so-called water tree come from? What else could it be besides a fake?"

Carl was deeply shocked by his own flawless wisdom. How could there be someone as smart as him in this world?

John Wacho also believed in Carl's judgment very much. After all, if the Blackrock Territory could really do these incredible things quietly, then it could only be said that Lord Eric would not live long.

"Karl, you're quite good. After this mission is over, I'll recommend you to the Marquis. You have an active mind and decent skills, and most importantly, you're very young!"

John Wacho became more and more satisfied as he looked at Carl. After praising him, John Wacho waved his hand and decided not to wait for the attack power of the Orc Tribe.

He planned to launch a surprise attack on the Blackrock Territory. After all, a weak territory that could only rely on pretending to be strong could not be easily destroyed by them.

"Speed ​​is of the essence in war! Everyone, move! Blackstone Territory must be extremely weak right now, so we must attack it quickly! Complete the mission assigned by the Marquis quickly!"

While giving the order, John Wacho had already begun to imagine the glorious moments in the future, when he would have all the status and wealth he wanted.

In this way, John Wacho led the Red Yao Legion to quickly approach the Black Yao Town and quickly approached the point of no return.

On the wall of Heiyao Town, Reborret was looking at the 113 orcs and the 15 human soldiers below.

"Everyone! I think you already know who we are facing, especially the orc brothers, the heavy armored assault legion and the wolf rider team.

Their strength is far greater than ours, so if anyone is afraid, you can go with the other villagers to seek refuge. There is no need to feel any psychological burden. After all, no one here has the right to force you."

None of the orc warriors below, including the fifteen human soldiers, had any intention of retreating. They all stood in full battle array, waiting for Reborret's order.

"It's not too late to regret now. You should know that this time I'm not sure I can keep everyone alive until the end of this war..."

"Lord Reborret!" A human soldier raised his hand. Reborret thought he was planning to withdraw from the city defense battle, but his next words surprised Reborret a little.

"Aunt Mary and the others were all planning to go to the city walls to protect our home like last time, but you forced them to seek refuge. So, why shouldn't those of us who can fight participate in this defense of the city? After all, others want to join but can't."

After he said this, all the soldiers laughed and said that he was right. Others wanted to participate but couldn't, so how could they just quit?
