Chapter 210: Martyrdom Army

After flying at high altitude for several days, Richard did not attract the attention of the enemies on the ground. What caught his eyes was the endless golden beauty. The golden ocean composed of crops and plants on the ground seemed to be swaying in the wind.

Richard and others came to the ground, and the cool breeze reduced their fatigue and tension. The army's preparation was nearing the end. During this period, the Autumn Kingdom Fluke had not made any moves. So on the eve of the attack, Richard took Primatisfina riding Onyxia and Diluka who rushed from Tordheim to Fluke for preliminary reconnaissance.

"It's so beautiful, just like a painting. The wind is also very comfortable. This refreshing feeling is like nature opening its arms to welcome us."

Primadis was intoxicated by the scenery. Richard smiled and said, "The goddesses and people here will not welcome us uninvited guests."

Everyone changed into the service of the local people and walked around and looked around. Fluke is located in the northwest of the continent, bordering Greze to the east and Tordheim to the south. This is the richest place on the continent. There are fertile fields everywhere, and crops can be harvested three times a year. In addition, it is located in the plains with a stable climate and almost no disasters. There are windmills everywhere here, which provide labor for the local people and enable various crops to be processed into various products. Through the trade route, the people here gradually became the richest in Yggdalsil.

The last city they attacked was Ymir. Initially, Ymir seized several cities. The team used gentle means to intervene in the local economy and used force to resist. Valeera's intelligence showed that Ymir had established many caravans that were inclined towards the demons. These caravans fought openly and secretly with the local forces led by Freya. Both sides had spies inside. Ymir's supplies were intercepted somewhere, and the base was attacked when the goddess went out secretly. Such things happened frequently. Valeera speculated through continuous intelligence collection that Ymir may have accumulated the financial resources of two or three cities. If all of this is used in the army, it will form an extremely powerful force.

When Richard and his party arrived, Ymir's power in Fluk had been eliminated. But Richard felt vaguely that Ymir should be in a shadow now. After all, it was somewhat surprising and puzzling that a very powerful candidate disappeared without causing any waves.

"What a quiet and peaceful country."

Onyxia nodded and said something rare: "I heard that the wine in this country is delicious. I want to try it."

Richard looked around and said: "Good wine and beautiful women are also a kind of enjoyment. Fina, prepare a good meal."

"Okay, Lord Richard."

Diluka did not join in their conversation and remained alert. Seeing Richard coming over, Diluka said, "Our invasion was too smooth and we did not encounter any obstruction at all. Even if Fluke is vast and the message is not easy to pass on, Sister Freya should have taken action..." Richard

nodded in agreement, "You are right, I am also confused. After all, entering a country called Ada and a country called Tordheim is not easy. The National Prayer Maiden was badly damaged."

Diluka rolled her eyes and said, "Of course, they are demons! It is the goddess's duty to destroy the demons' invasion. That's why it's strange. Even if Fluke doesn't have any air combat forces, it shouldn't be in such a defenseless state. Except for the border defense forces, we haven't seen other soldiers in such a long time. This is too lax. You know, Fluke just finished a big battle!"

"Indeed, Onyxia is too big. Even if you didn't notice Onyxia in the sky, your sister Freya would have noticed her when she landed. It's really a pity to be so lax..." Richard slowly drew out his sword and slashed at the bushes not far behind him. "It's suspicious!"

Behind the bushes, a man in a white coat sensed the danger and dodged immediately. His agile movements were like those of an acrobat.

"The enemy is so close!" Diluka raised the Nibelungen, and the others also got ready for fighting. Onyxia even had a curious look in her eyes.

Richard retracted his sword and stood still. One enemy was discovered, and the other white coats hiding in the treetops and bushes also jumped out and formed a circle.

Richard shook his head and said to Diluka, "We were discovered after all. This posture is to get close to assassinate us. Your sister actually used this trick..."

The white cloaks approached the center step by step. These people wore white and slightly dirty cloaks and hung this necklace around their necks. Light armor was worn on the key parts of their bodies, and each of them had a sturdy figure and held a dagger.

"Martyr Army!" Diluka recognized these white cloaks.

"Martyr Army?"

"This is a secret training troop, unique to Sister Freya. These people are fanatical believers in the Goddess, who have been trained since they were young. They never spare their lives in battle and are willing to give everything they have to the Goddess. Their characteristic is that they all wear necklaces with statues of Sister Freya around their necks. But martyrs are usually by Sister Freya's side. Is Sister Freya nearby?" "Maybe they

are nearby. You just said that Fluke's air force is not good, but they have excellent ground troops, so excellent that they can avoid our perception. Now I can understand your sister's thoughts. If the sky can't be defended, we can just deal with it when we come down." Richard said calmly, and the white martyrs were slowly approaching.

Richard's artifact ignited the power of shadow, and several others also raised their own weapons or condensed new magic.

"Stop!"

A loud shout came from not far away, and the White Martyrs stopped their actions at this moment. A mature and beautiful woman walked out of the golden ocean in the distance.

"I just asked you to hold them, who ordered you to act without permission!"

Hearing this, the White Martyrs lowered their arms and bowed their heads without saying a word. The encirclement was also lifted, and the Martyrs stood behind the woman one by one in an orderly manner. Only when they stood behind her did the oppressive energy around Richard decrease. Although this oppressive energy could not pose a threat to Richard, it still made everyone feel uncomfortable.

"Sister Freya..." Diluka muttered in a low voice. It turned out that the woman in front of her was the goddess of Autumn Country, Freya.
