I don't know if there is really a goddess's favor, the kingdom of Talos gave birth to two talented pearls at one time in the darkest years, the eldest princess Veronica has become the first swordsman in the royal family before she becomes an adult, and has a battlefield command talent that General Groon has to praise, the second princess Ania is known for her intelligence, although she is not good at swordsmanship and military strategy, but she has read all the collections in the royal library before the age of fourteen, and her magical talent is extremely high - compared to these two pearls of Talos, Andrew, the only prince of the kingdom, looked bleak, and the little prince, who was mediocre in every way, had almost no presence in public.But Rudolf III felt that his two proud daughters were the greatest sorrow of the country—such an incomparable talent, which would have shone in any era, and yet they had to face the tide of chaos in Kolo early, and in the face of this catastrophe faced by all beings equally, the pearl may not last long, and the talented young people often have no time to grow up before they are swallowed up by darkness.Veronica had become the first victim, and when he saw Aniah, he couldn't help but think of it."
One by one, my daughter," Rudolf III pressed his hand to his forehead, his tone a little tired, "I am afraid that even unconfirmed rumors can be noticed by you. ”"Yes Father," Princess Ania bowed slightly, "First of all, an observation of the Chaos Frontier - the astrologers of the Tower of Mysteries looked at the Dark Border on the last starless night, and they observed that a huge shadow vortex was gradually taking shape on the Border, and its radiance ranged from the Beacon Nation all the way to the Shadow Jungle, almost half of the Ansu continent.Now in the seventh year of the Tides of Chaos, the tides of the Sea of Karnos will begin to weaken in the last two months of the year, but the Shadow Vortex has appeared......
It seems to go against this rule. ”"The Sea of Karnos is in turmoil, and the boundary between order and chaos is not so easy to determine," Grand Duke Lune suddenly spoke, his voice calm with almost no emotional fluctuations, "What is recorded in the history books is just a one-sided observation of the chaotic world by mortals, and cannot be regarded as a golden rule.Moreover, the shadow vortex is only a byproduct of the forces of chaos, not chaos itself, and its rise and fall cannot be used to determine the strength of the tide of chaos. ”Aniah's words were interrupted by Grand Duke Luen, but there was no unpleasant look on his face, and Rudolf III nodded slightly: "Lu Enqing's words also make sense, it is better for the scholars to study these things more carefully before making conclusions......
Hmph, anyway, those Sanctuary people must be more concerned about the changes in the Chaos Boundary, and they will always take action. ”Ania nodded, and continued: "There are also some reports about the outer lines of the Shadow Jungle, in my sister's ......
After the disappearance, the outposts in the Shadow Jungle were almost completely lost overnight, and then there were reports of successive attacks on the Westside Fortress, which made it difficult to investigate the outer defenses, and only one thing can be determined at this time, and that is that we are under some kind of new attack, and that it is highly likely that new forms of monsters have been bred in the chaos, and they are extremely lethal to small furnace outposts. ”Rudolf III's hand was still pressed on his forehead, and his face seemed to be a little older: "Magus is also old, ......"
"The general of the Western Realm at least blocked the monster's continued attack on the territory, and the fortress still stands among the mountains.The changes in the Shadow Jungle are a mystery to everyone, even our royal scholars can't see what is going on in the shadows, and the responsibility for this cannot be entirely blamed on Magus - if you have to say responsibility, the Tower of Mysteries and the Royal Warlock Guild have a greater responsibility, their duty is to see through the changes in Chaos, but they did not give early warning in time. ”Aniah's words made the general Grohn on the side nod slightly, this kingdom general has a deep friendship with the western general Magus, and he also knows that the defeat of the western war has put the legendary veteran in a very unfavorable situation, but as a soldier, he really can't stand the wanton evaluation of the border soldiers by those arrogant aristocratic analysts in the court.Compared with those nobles who "have wine bags and rice bags", Princess Ania is obviously more appreciated and valued by this general."
I know Magus's difficulties and exploits, don't worry, your father is not old and confused, and this judgment is still there," Rudolf III waved his hand, and the expression on his face became a little lighter, "What did you mention about what happened on the floating island in the south?"
Could it be that those demonic beasts were also affected by the tide of chaos?
”Warcraft are different from monsters - in the world of Kolo, people refer to the monsters bred in chaos and the corrupted monsters that are eroded by chaos as monsters, but Warcraft are normal creatures that originally exist in this world, although they are contradictory to the human world, they are also part of the normal ecology of this world.Warcraft includes those powerful primitive creatures that have magical powers, as well as those "sub-races" that mutate in a magical environment to gain basic intelligence and evolution, and the second type of Warcraft is the second most common on the floating islands in the southern border of the kingdom.Although some scholars believe that subraces also have their own social structures and even cultural systems, they also admit that the intelligence of subraces is not comparable to that of high-level humanoid races, so the ruling class of Talos has never paid much attention to the hordes of monsters on the floating islands in the south of the kingdom.Rudolf III was curious about what was going on with the "low-intelligence races" on the floating islands, so much so that the royal scholars, who had always lived in seclusion, paid attention to them."
The psychic wizard saw that the sub-ethnic tribes that had been fighting each other had suddenly stopped fighting, and it seemed that a strong leader appeared in their midst, uniting all the races.The latest news from the Tower of Mysteries is that the tribes are cutting down trees to create some kind of large ...... device, initially suspected to be some kind of huge vehicle.A few days ago, wizards had observed an elderly Blue Devil whale swimming from the direction of the Land of Eternal Winter, apparently to rest on the largest floating island in the South, but it had not been seen again since then - my mentor suspected that this was also related to the strange activities of those subraces. ”"Blue Devil Whale?"
Rudolph III didn't react when he heard the various movements of the subrace, but his expression finally changed when he heard the Blue Devil Whale, "Just with those subraces that have just evolved from beasts, can there be a Blue Devil Whale left?"
”"It doesn't have to be them, after all, the floating island is floating in the sky, and we can only observe the situation on the island with the help of magic, but it is certain that a blue devil whale has disappeared on that island."
Grand Duke Lune was also interested in the topic, and the emaciated man stepped forward and gently twisted his proud mustache with one hand: "What else have the masters of the Tower of Mysteries discovered?"
Do you know who integrated those beasts?
”"Grand Duke Rune, sub-races are not like beasts," Ania glanced at Grand Duke Rune before continuing, "The witches used black magic to capture a soul on that floating island across the Sea of Karnos, and that soul chaos memory kept repeating a name - the head wolf, this head wolf was supposed to be their new leader, and the soul showed great fear and awe when it mentioned this word. ”"Head Wolf ......"
Grohn frowned, the scar on his face looking even more hideous, "Sounds like the name of a beast, maybe a gnoll?"
Or a demon wolf?
”"Jackals have always had a low status among the sub-races, and their innate qualities are very low, so it is difficult to produce any decent leaders," Princess Ania shook her head, "Demon wolves are very powerful, and they are powerful predators in the sub-races, but their intelligence is only average, and it is unlikely that they will become the general leaders of several tribes.Rather than these two, scholars prefer to believe that 'head wolf' is just an honorary title, independent of race, and an honorific title given to a powerful person by those sub-races who have been integrated in order to submit to them. ”"Your Majesty, this matter should be taken care of," Grand Duke Lune bowed slightly to Rudolf III, "The sudden gathering of demonic beasts has not been a good thing throughout the ages, although they are all rabble, but beasts are naturally stronger than human bodies, and now the royal defense is empty, so it should be guarded against as soon as possible." ”"It's just a sub-race, they really want to attack a country," Rudolph III snorted, "but proper precautions are indeed necessary, and their raiding is also a huge loss for the current kingdom."
Grohn, this matter will be left to you to arrange - just increase the defense of the southern border cities appropriately, and now that the war in the west is tight, it is not appropriate to draw too many troops. ”When the two kings of the kingdom had gone, the room fell silent again.Rudolf III sat in the chair, and there seemed to be a cloud between his brows that would never dissipate, and after a long time, he exhaled softly: "Aniah, open the window." ”The young princess nodded, stepped aside and pushed open the window.Brilliant sunlight pours into the room, bringing light to the world of Kolo The sun "Ulo" has just walked to the atrium of the sky.In this room on the top floor of the Golden Rose Palace, it is easy to overlook almost the entire scenery of the White City, and you can see that this ancient city stretches out on the plain, bright and white.Above the city, the clear sky was cloudless, and only in the extreme distance at the end of the horizon could the sky darken, and a dark aura enveloped the sky, which was the shadow of the Sea of Karnos on the sky."
After chaos comes Warcraft," Rudolph III looked at the clear sky outside, but his face was cloudy, "what the hell is going on in this world......"
