The iron armor was sonorous, and the soles of the combat boots covered with steel plates thumped on the ground.
This is the Snow Tiger Legion of the elite heavy infantry corps built by Arthur with all his might, and 100,000 high-spirited soldiers marched forward with neat steps, with the momentum of destroying everything and tearing everything, singing war songs.
Diogo yawned on the cliff, and the soldiers of the Snow Tiger Legion saw the dragon's breath spewing out of Diago's nostrils, not only did they not have the slightest fear, but their fighting spirit became more and more high, with such a powerful demon dragon in their camp, what enemy could resist their attack Ten miles away, the marching army in another valley made Arthur, who was looking down from afar, frown.
Compared with the elite army under his feet, which Arthur had spent several years arming, the army ten miles away dragged mud and water when it marched, and all the soldiers moved forward step by step with weakness, like the walking dead.
There was no fighting spirit in them, no spirit in them, and Arthur couldn't help but be annoyed when he saw these soldiers in leather armor.
A few months ago, these huge numbers of soldiers were farmers, outcasts, and small city vendors.
But with a forced conscription order from Arthur, these men of appropriate age were forcibly drawn into the army.
More than ninety percent of the people were ordinary people, and they had only just received crude leather armor and low-quality weapons before they set out.
How much combat effectiveness can such an army have...
Arthur didn't expect much from them anyway.
Turning his head to look northeast, Arthur couldn't help but grin, his brilliant red hair and purple eyes, shining in the sun, matched with his unusually fitting golden armor.
What a peerless beautiful man To the northeast are rolling mountain ranges.
Thousands of feet of cliffs are everywhere, and gray-black and gray-white granite is the ruler here.
There is no dirt on the mountains, and naturally there are no flowers and trees.
Even moss is rare.
This is the highlands, the barrenest and most inhospitable highlands on the northern border between the Gallic and Caesar empires.
Arthur forcibly recruited tens of millions of soldiers from the five provinces under his rule, and now they are under duress by force.
The soldiers were divided into dozens of mighty marches all the way to the hinterland of the highlands.
"Diogo, do you think we're going to make it" Arthur stomped Diogo's head hard.
Slowly raising his head, Diogo showed a wicked smile: "Of course, I never doubted this.
But Your Royal Highness, I think you should think carefully about my proposal.
You know, there is an old proverb in the East called crossing a river and tearing down a bridge, and Esther, I think her technique of tearing down bridges is many times more powerful than her ice magic. ” Arthur nodded thoughtfully.
He stomped on Diogo's head, and Diogo flapped his wings with a wild laugh, and his huge body rose into the air.
He flew up several thousand meters above the ground at a vertical angle.
Then his body turned around and quickly shot in the direction of a small flat dam in the mountains dozens of miles away.
The small flat dam within a radius of several miles is actually rich in water and grass.
There is also a small clear river passing through it.
Dozens of ornate tents dotted the area, and more than 30,000 knights of punishment in gold and silver armor surrounded this small paradise.
Occasionally, a group of high-ranking clergy of the Punishment Temple in red robes flew through the sky, and higher in the air, there were even three red dragons draped in iron-red scales carrying three Punishment Priests hovering in the air.
Diogo landed heavily in front of one of the largest tents, and Arthur jumped off his head and strode into the tent.
Diogo let out a strange sinister grin, and his body squirmed for a moment before turning into a human form, and then followed with a grin.
Esther was sitting on a cushion in the middle of the tent, a map made of monster leather on the huge bench in front of her, and faint fluctuations of magic continued to spread from the map.
Hearing Arthur's footsteps coming in, Esther casually put away the map, which was more than ten meters long and wide, and then looked up at Arthur.
"Where is the advance of the army?"
Esther picked up a cup of tea that had cooled down beside her and took a sip slowly.
Arthur greedily looked at Esther's beautiful face and her slender figure, strode in front of her, and slowly put it on the long table: "It's less than two days away from the cave you said, and the scouts have already entered the cave, and they have already killed several abyssal demons.
But here's a problem ... ” Esther looked at Arthur in surprise: "What is the problem?"
Arthur's finger flicked over the long case, and he said in a low voice, "Madame Rose has fled, and we don't have a detailed map of the Fourth Abyss in her hand.
Of course, Madame Ross has a map of the Fourth Abyss, and that's just a bonus, and even without her map, we're still going to launch this attack.
But... ” Esther just looked at Arthur quietly, and she raised her teacup and took another sip of cold tea.
"However, there is no doubt that without that map, my army would have to take a greater risk" Arthur stared at Esther deadly: "Originally, these soldiers might have been able to achieve their goal with only a small number of casualties, but now, I will probably have to pay more than ninety percent of the sacrifices."
Think about what my territory would be like if they all died in the Fourth Abyss."
Esther's eyes narrowed, "But you will be rewarded more than your loss." ” Arthur shook his head slightly, he sighed deeply, lowered his head and was silent for a while, then raised his head to look at Esther: "I suddenly regret my impulsiveness, I am responsible for the people of my territory, I am responsible for their happy life."
So, I would love to order an end to this costly war. ” Esther stood up suddenly, and she shouted, "Arthur, have you forgotten our agreement?"
Arthur smiled and looked at Esther: "Our agreement aha, it was an agreement between me and the Silver Iris family, just because the Ten Thousand Poison Heavenly Orbs are in your hands, so after you found me, I took the risk of angering the Silver Iris family, and did not hesitate to use all my power to help your lovely, charming, and unforgettable Miss Esther at first sight" Esther stared at Arthur deadly, and Amy, the silver elf standing behind Esther, slowly stepped forward, she held a sharp silver sword in her backhand, and looked at Arthur with an unkind gaze.

Diogo walked up with a slow shake of his arms, and he smiled and shook his head at Amy: "This is a private matter between the two of them, beautiful elf, you shouldn't interfere."
Or maybe you're more interested in having some in-depth conversation with me."
A faint black qi erupted from Diogo's body, his body was entangled in black qi, and a suffocating dragon power unceremoniously rushed towards Amy.
Amy's face turned pale, and she was forced to take two steps back by the dragon's might, and under the huge dragon's shock, she even had an extremely difficult time breathing.
"Prince Arthur, what do you want" Esther exhaled softly at the sight of Amy's distorted and pained face.
"Ten Thousand Poison Celestial Sphere" Arthur looked at Esther greedily: "When I spend so much money and manpower to help you attack the Fourth Abyss, you must let me see certain benefits of the Ten Thousand Poison Celestial Sphere, give me the Ten Thousand Poison Celestial Sphere, and let me relieve the biggest crisis in my body."
Esther decisively rejected Arthur's request: "Impossible, Prince Arthur, the Ten Thousand Poison Orbs must be lent to you after you help me achieve my goal."
Until then, I have to make sure you're wholeheartedly helping me with that."
"Well, I want you," Arthur smiled with an extremely wicked smile, his face almost touching Esther's little face, "I want you to know what it means, either the Ten Thousand Poison Celestial Sphere, or your body, in short, I want to get the same."
Before I can command my army to officially embark on that path of destruction, I must obtain one of the two. ” "Or completely help me get rid of the pain that has been entangled in my body all these years, or, let me feel better" "A woman like you shouldn't forget the man who took you for the first time" Arthur reached out to support Esther's delicate chin: "The first time, the second time, the third time, in short, until my army reaches your destination, you are mine, I can do whatever I want with you, because you always want me to see a little hope, give me a little benefit, what do you think" Amy scolded angrily: "Shameless thing, you... ” Diogo grabbed Amy's neck, he leaned into Amy's ear and muttered in a low voice, "I warn you, it's their private matter, don't interject, elf, or I'll consider gagging you with a part of my body" Esther looked at Arthur calmly: "That's what you think" Arthur nodded seriously: "Of course, I think so, don't give me any covenants, agreements, or oaths, because you are the descendants of the Great Blue Demon King, do you think I will believe the things that the descendants of the Silver Iris family signed with me?"
Arthur's body trembled slightly, and he looked at Esther's quiet little face like an iceberg with a smug smile.
"Give me the Ten Thousand Poison Heavenly Sphere now, or right now, right here, at this time, let me get you."
"The additional condition is that the elf next to you is also mine, and your silver python Alice is Diogo's" Diogo Gagaga laughed: "You are the most generous prince I have ever met" Esther was silent for a full quarter of an hour, then she closed her eyes: "You can get me, but the Ten Thousand Poison Celestial Sphere, I must ensure that your life is under my control" Arthur smirked his brow and turned his head to give Diogo a thumbs up
