Warhammer Throne

Chapter 550: , The pinnacle of life

Despite being warned by the fairy in the lake, Ryan ordered the coalition forces to camp and rest temporarily. This army was very exhausted after a long period of combat. In this case, it is not a force to march to stop Mahhubad’s army. A sensible and correct choice would instead give more troops to the undead.

They need to spend some time rest and replenishment, and then set off to the north, or choose to go from the south of Lyones to Crona, or choose to go from the Ardennes Forest through the former capital of Artois Principality Atois Castle.

The army swept the battlefield where there was nothing worth cleaning. Mojana led a team of lake gods chanting spells to purify the corrosion of chaos.

Landuin's sacrifice opened up a new era for Musilon, and even the most ignorant serfs could feel that this land was changing.

The swamps are gradually fading, large swamps are turning into lakes, and small swamps are turning into ponds.

The corruption brought by the undead and chaos to this land is gradually disappearing. This is the last gift Landuin left when he burned his soul.

In the afternoon, Ryan, Karad, Morjana, and the other dukes sat together to discuss what to do next.

The big chunks of cut wild boar were processed by the knights' servants and roasted on the fire. The knights' servants skillfully use pepper and honey to taste the barbecue. Ryan sits in the center and Mogiana sits in his left hand. At the same time, Berhemond was sitting on his right hand, and everyone was eating and talking with wine.

"The casualties this time are okay. Generally speaking, they are less than 30%." Berhemond first said: "Although the war is very difficult, the casualties are acceptable."

Everyone nodded. The casualties of this war were barely within the range of the dukes. That is, although the process was very difficult, the most important tug-of-war and defeat were not fought. At best, the Order Coalition only fought against the treacherous demon army. There was a head-on confrontation.

After the most difficult battle, the Nurgle Demon Army was overwhelmed.

So Ryan and the others didn't know what to say about the inexplicable victory of this war.

"Now our army is exhausted and supplies are difficult. If we are going to rescue Kurona, we will most likely be ambushed by the undead." Hagen, Duke of Gisoleaux was seriously injured in this war, and his helmet was all Halfway broken, fortunately, the stag took it back with a lance: "But Kurona is the capital, and we must save it again. Even in spring, we must mobilize the army!"

"Yes, we must go to rescue the capital." Francois has no objection to this: "We can't let the black knight occupy our capital. The nation has been established for thousands of years, and Curona has never been lost."

"Then the question is, does the black knight Matthew Bard think he has the qualifications to become king?" Boderek, Duke of Polderro, said strangely: "I remember he was originally a Connet's ranger knight. That's it, he doesn't even have a Duke title! He is not a member of the twelve first-generation holy grail knight family or its vassal family?"

"No, he is." Ryan said in a deep voice, "Mathubad has actually met the four requirements for being king. When he was young, he won the title of Paladin because of a series of feats and noble virtues."

"But his title of Duke of Moussilon is self-proclaimed. We all know that you are the real Duke of Moussilon if you are recognized by Your Excellency Landuin!" Kalad said with some dissatisfaction, the sanctuary powerhouse. He deliberately jumped up: "On this one alone, Mathewbad can't be king!"

"He can, because even if he is not Duke Moussilon, he still meets sufficient conditions." Ryan sneered: "Because he is the son of Duke Raun! He is his illegitimate child! Now Raun's life or death is uncertain, he is a laborer. En’s illegitimate child naturally has a weak claim."

Ryan's understatement shocked everyone present.

"What? Mathewbad is Raun's son?!"

"No wonder, no wonder this ranger knight who once possessed outstanding virtues fell so thoroughly!"

"This is a bastard!"

"Yes! Raun did have an illegitimate child who was abandoned in the wilderness. If so, everything makes sense."

Everyone was whispering, and many people were astonished and speechless. Duke Berhemond shook his head after hearing this: "The family is unfortunate, the family is unfortunate! I know about this, when Louis ordered that child abandon the wilderness, I also advised him not to do that, but to send this child to the empire, so that he won’t be cold or hungry, but Louis insisted.”

"Hehehe, the father abandoned his son, and when the son was adopted and grown up, he turned to his father for revenge, not only to kill the father, but also to inherit everything from the father. You humans are really kind and filial to the father." The wood elf lord Alalos mocked. He said that he still intends to continue to ridicule the stupidity and backwardness of human beings. Ryan glared at him and signaled that it was none of your business. Aralos shrugged and motioned for you to say, I won't say anything.

"If this is the case, then Mathieubad is indeed qualified to claim the throne." François opened his eyes, and the wise and strategic old man immediately realized the problem: "Because he is Raun Of course, his illegitimate son is a member of the family of the Duke of Connet, and can legitimately claim the duke title and the kingdom regent title that Raun currently has... the undead played a big game of chess! I now suspect that Mathieubad is being adopted. Time has already stepped into the plan of the undead!"

"Now we think so much is useless." Ryan saw that his goal had been achieved, and he shook his head: "This matter can't be completely blamed on Raun. He is also under pressure. Who didn't have a young age? It's the undead. After taking advantage of this abandoned child, we can only expose Mathewbad’s conspiracy and save this country."

"Curona is stationed with a large number of troops and a whole team of Holy Grail knights. The city has thick walls and is equipped with a large number of defensive weapons. Although Raun has deployed a lot of defenders, Mathieubad wants to take Cullona not so much. Easy." Lake God Witch Mogiana was holding the potion chalice, her face was a little pale, obviously because she had consumed too much magic power in the previous battle: "So don't worry, everyone, please rest well and wait until the new conscripted army arrives. , We immediately go to Curona to stop Mathewbad’s conspiracy!"

"Yes!" Everyone nodded together.

"Will Esley help us?" Ryan asked while Aralos was still there.

"Esley will assist you until you completely expel the undead." Alaros-the brave nodded, but he said arrogantly, "But Esley also has a condition."

"Say." Ryan sat still, and the Wood Elf obviously wouldn't help him without a reason. The conditions were certain, and it was up to you.

"A new observatory, close to the Arden Forest, covers an area of ​​five hectares, and we can choose a place where no one is there." Aralos asked the conditions of the wood elves: "We can help you monitor the movements of the orcs in the Arden Forest. , You can also collect..."

"Collect amber, right?" Ryan said angrily, "I can promise you to establish an observatory, but since you want to live in my territory, you must abide by my laws and regulations. You can't abduct children or destroy them at will. Hunters who enter the forest to hunt can't harm humans passing by nearby, can they do it?"

"The Arden Forest is not Esso Loren, this is not our home at all." Alalos immediately retorted: "We just need to build a jungle cellar to store supplies, and to build a world tree root export to ensure that When the'Shadow' Mogul appears, we can quickly dispatch an army."

After finishing speaking, Aralos said with some pride: "You need Eslay’s help, friend Lion, the wood elves can help you speed up the corruption of this land, as long as we guide the power of the age oak tree to purify this place, we don’t need a few. In a few months, Moussilon, who has lost the source of corruption, will return to the pomp of a thousand years ago, and Esley will never lie."

"Well... if you can abide by my rules, then there is no problem in setting aside a piece of land for you to build an observatory." This sentence really touched Ryan, and the ability of Time Oak to purify corrosion is unparalleled, and the most important thing is. Yes, the wood elves’ method of purifying this land is not destruction. It only needs to use amber to inspire the power of the oak tree of the age and then sow it here. The life force will make Moussilon the richest and most powerful principality in Brittany again. During Landuin's time, it was once fertile for thousands of miles.

To do this with human beings is to burn the entire land with fire and blessed salt. The land is purified, and this land is completely destroyed and can only be rebuilt.

"We promise to abide by your rules, then...a deal." Aralos stretched out his hand.

"make a deal."

…………I am the dividing line of trading with Green Chaos…………

In late April, Mathieubad led an army of knights towards Kurona.

He triumphantly pulled the reins of his horse, full-body black cursed armor, and holding the sword of the viper, Mahhubard did not wear a helmet. He was humming the ancient hymn of the blood dragon family, and he was in a great mood.

Because there is nothing to stop him from ascending to the throne at this time.

Raun was seriously wounded and dying, his whereabouts are unknown, and the northern knightly army has fallen apart.

The treacherous demon Carlos has agreed to deal with Ryan, and the southern knightly army has also been defeated in the war. The spire has been retaken. Ryan has also been defeated in another battle with the treacherous demon. After getting the lion lance, Carlos promised to completely defeat Ryan, so there is no need to worry about the southerners' possible offensive.

So Mathieubad made a decisive decision and decided to lead the army of the undead to Kurona, ready to take advantage of the chaos and ascend to the throne.

He played his own banner and revealed his identity. He publicly declared that he was the orthodox heir to Raun and the legal successor to the title of Duke Mousillon. He was qualified and deserved to be the one of Brittany. King.

And just as imagined, Mathieubad did not have too much headache for the source of troops, because a large number of depressed, wicked rogue knights, robbers in the forest, violent serfs, and despicable killers swarmed under his banner. Mathieubad quickly pulled up an entire army composed of a large number of living people and undead.

More importantly, Mathieubad won the support of many Musilon aristocrats and those former Musilon aristocrats south of Lyon Nasai. He successfully convinced those former Musilon aristocrats who had been treated unequal for a long time. The source of all this is the kingdom’s injustice to them. For their own benefit, they must act. They believe that Mathewbad is indeed the legitimate Duke of Moussilon and can help them in their current plight. , So these knight nobles announced their response to send troops.

So these nobles sent troops one after another and gave way.

As the team continued to grow, Mathewbad provoked a battle for his own kingship.

The sun in the early spring was so bright and beautiful, the scenery of birds and flowers was common in the wilderness, the snow began to melt, and it was another spring of the year, and Mathieubad led all his troops forward in the wild.

The castles of knights lined up along the way either sent knights to join their team or couldn't stand behind closed doors. With the heavy losses of the northern knightly army, no knight nobles dared to go out of the city to fight with this army.

Mathieubad didn't attack these castles but just passed by, because he wanted to become a king instead of destroying the country.

In this way, he successfully passed Lyonnaise and drove into the Duchy of Le-Angouran. This duchy with the coat of arms of the "Blue Sea Monster" was already shivering in front of Mathieubad, only some brave ones. The champion knight or the knight of the kingdom issued a request for a championship showdown to Mathewbad, and Mu Xilong's viper responded one by one.

Mathewbad, who has fully integrated all the skills, strength and experience of the Black Holy Grail knights, is unbeatable. All Breton knights who challenged him were beheaded on the spot by him, and Moussilon’s viper magnanimously released After passing the families and castles of those challengers, he graciously said that if you oppose me, then challenge me, and I will not refuse any challenge.

Just as Matthew Bard said, he did not burn, kill, or looting along the way. He just sent out invitations to the championship and defeated his opponents over and over again, and his behavior was quickly recognized by his own people.

It seems that Mathieubad is really the one who has been treated unfairly. He just wants to get his things back. Under his leadership, Brittany can really usher in a new era.

The morale of this army soared, and speculators firmly believed that Mathewbad would become the new King of Bretania!

After two weeks, Mathewbad and his army gradually approached Curona. In the army, the knights sang Mathewbad's new military anthem.

"The Sandnes River is turbulent, and the gray mountains fly in chaos~"

"Faggy Shiwu is independent, and his righteous anger burns with blood~"

"The rich and powerful only know the proud family, and there are really few people worrying about the country~"

…………

"The knight marches under the blue sky, the army is united for justice!"

"There are a million soldiers in my chest, and I will die!"

"The sky is furious and the earth is moving, roaring and roaring very loudly!"

"The eternal sleeper cannot sleep, the rise of the new king is now!"

Matthew Bard was riding on his undead war horse. The afternoon sun was so dazzling. He looked around and saw that his legion covered the entire field, and there were many colorful family heraldic flags and battle flags. The soldiers obeyed their orders and their commands, one piece after another piece of armor radiated a dazzling light under the reflection of the sun...

Kurona is not far away, and the defenders of dozens of castles and towns have been frightened by Mathieubad so that they dare not go out of the city to fight. Every knight who dares to challenge himself has been defeated. , With tens of thousands of troops in hand, only one step away from the throne, the anxiety and irritability that had been suppressed by Ryan finally disappeared in Mathieubad's chest.

For some reason, Mathieubad only felt his whole body warm, and he could feel the satisfaction of being empty all over his body.

So hi! I feel that life has reached its peak!
