Chapter 1269: Melodious bells

On July 17, the Julian calendar, the United Nations announced the official start of the "Sword of Justice" peacekeeping operation. M
From more than 50 countries, with a total strength of more than 200,000 troops, one after another began to attack Leiria.
To steal money, things, and women...Uh, to save the innocent people of Leiria who are in dire straits, punish evil, get justice, eliminate cruel tyrants, and bring freedom and democracy to the people of Leiria...
Everyone ran faster than the other. I'm afraid I'll be late, and I won't get money, things, or women.
However, because the troops come from different countries, the middle road is far and near. Coupled with the lack of a central command organization and no unified organization, the entire operation was obviously chaotic when it started.
On the day when the operation officially started, the Elf Kingdom troops thousands of miles away were still boarding the ship, and the Kingdom of Casmonria, which bordered the Kingdom of Leiria, took advantage of its geographical advantages and took the lead.
For a long time, the kingdoms of Casmonria and Leiria have been known as brotherhoods, and there is no lack of intermarriage between them. But there is an old proverb: For a rich man, the world hates his relatives, and even more hates his neighbors. The most annoying thing is that the neighbor who lives next to him is his relative.
They are always thinking about their own things, and he will take advantage of them if they are not paying attention. It's really hateful.
The Kingdom of Casmonria and the Kingdom of Leiria are not only relatives, but also neighbors. This relationship is naturally not much better.
At eight o'clock that morning, the peacekeeping forces of the State of Casmonria had already been waiting on the border, and they eagerly crossed the border and entered the territory of the Kingdom of Leiria, heading straight to the city of Carollia, the important local town.
All the puppies were all happily, just like the Chinese New Year was about to come, planning to go to Carollia City to grab some things... uh. Keep the peace.
But to their disappointment, when the forward of their troops just saw the city wall, the city lord of Carolina declared an uprising in the first time, replaced the banner of the United Nations on the city, and joined the crusade against the rebels without hesitation. Among De Rossi's justice ranks.
If it's just that, it's fine.
Everyone can pretend to be ignorant, and then run into the city to grab something and then turn around. Say a few more words, "I'm sorry. I made a mistake, let's not take the next example, let's not take the next example, hahaha..."
What a great thing, some casual workers were randomly arrested to make scapegoats. Charge it up.
But Karoria's dog was also extremely cunning. He sent people to the city with a railway telegraph station in advance, and then spent a lot of money. Power up the entire continent.
Everyone knows the news.
In this way, everyone is naturally embarrassed to do it again.
The brothers in the Kingdom of Casmonria almost all exploded in anger: , got up early. But catch a late episode.
The big guy spent so much energy, forcibly marching for more than forty kilometers, one by one, the tired tongue came out like a dog, and the result was a long time. Nothing was fished.
But for the United Nations, this is great news.
No matter what the facts are. But there is no doubt that the peacekeeping forces liberated a large city in Leiria on the day of the war.
In the words of historians, it is the place where the master of the king came, the flag of righteousness pointed out, and the people ate pot pulp.
Although it is necessary to replace the word ‘wangshi’ with ‘allied forces’ in the process, it’s still a matter of face.
Therefore, good news came, and the morale of the peacekeeping troops was greatly boosted.
Everyone is full of confidence: With the coalition force of 200,000 troops, even a fool can see that the coalition troops have an overwhelmingly strong advantage over the 70,000 troops of Leiria.
What's more, among the seventy thousand troops of Leiria, how much De Rossi can command is still unknown. Even the most optimistic estimate, no more than half of them can obey De Rossi's orders.
In the face of the multitude of peacekeeping forces, the noble officials in Leiria probably surrendered.
Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with them. At most, it is just a bit of money and returned to the peacekeeping forces. They should be generals or generals, and those who should be the lord of the city should also be the lord of the city.
The United Nations is very optimistic about the war. It is generally estimated that it only takes one month at most for the "Sword of Justice" operation to be successfully concluded. Everyone wrapped up the parcels they had snatched, and there were women who went home happily. The legs were a little quicker, maybe you could still rush. Bacchus Festival.
Even more optimistic, it is estimated that it will only take a week to resolve the battle. With the current people’s sentiments and morale in the Kingdom of Leiria, wherever the peacekeeping forces go, they will immediately rebel and throw themselves into the camp of the peacekeeping forces to defeat De Rossi. .
Attacking Leiria's capital Ryder City may be a little troublesome at most.
The military operation this time was not so much a war as a demonstration by the nations.
The World Gaming Group is also making a fortune, not letting go of any opportunity to make a fortune.
They opened a handicap specifically for this purpose, with the goal of liberating Leiria, to see how much time can be spent.
The opening of this bet immediately aroused the enthusiastic response of lottery players.
In the eyes of everyone, De Rossi was bold enough to kill the king's family and his own father. It was a personal thing, but it was nothing more than that.
In the face of absolutely powerful strength, any conspiracy and trickery are clouds.
This time, that grandson is dead~!
At the same time as the ups and downs of the Holy Light Continent, the whole party was reveling, at the same time, the imperial city of Akadrin was flashed.
"Squeaky~"
With a dry and unpleasant sound, a door of the dusty room was pushed open.
The dust accumulated for many years fell rustlingly, like raindrops.
The long-lost sunlight shone into the dark room, and a man wrapped in a black robe stood in front of the door, staring into the empty room.
The indoor air is dull and full of pungent stale smell.
The black-robed man didn't seem to care at all, and stepped into the room.
There was a thick layer of dust on the ground, and every step I walked over left a deep footprint.
The black-robed man walked slowly up the stone steps surrounding the wall building.
The area of ​​this room is small, but what is surprising is: I don't know how high it is. I can't see the ceiling when I look up, and there is a black hole above my head.
The room was silent. Dark and cold.
The stone steps stretched upwards level by level, straight into the darkness, like a dead end to hell.
The black-robed man was not affected by the environment in the slightest, and patiently climbed up one step at a time.
After going thousands of levels, a light spot finally appeared on the black robe man's head.
With the footsteps of the black-robed man, the light spot grew larger and larger, gradually revealing a platform penetrated by sunlight.
It turns out that the top of the stone steps is a small platform.
In the middle of the platform, a huge bell hangs. Bathed quietly in the sun.
Board the platform. The vision suddenly opened up, and the cool breeze blew the black robe man's robe and hunted.
A group of swans flapped their wings and slowly passed by the black robe man. These graceful birds are so close that they can be caught as soon as they reach out.
Standing on the platform and looking out, the whole view of the entire Akadelin Imperial City appeared at the feet of the black-robed man~!
Standing here is as high as the clouds.
Overlooking. The scenery of the imperial city of Akadrin is unobstructed.
On the horizon are green fields, and the majestic walls of Akadrien are as thin as silk threads.
From far to near, down town. Military barracks, big campus, market area. Commercial Street, Shangcheng District, the inner city wall of the Imperial Guard Barracks, Regal District, and Government District. Even the Great Demon Temple, the Semitic Palace...
Everything is vividly visible, with a panoramic view.
The majestic imperial city with a history of two thousand years reveals a thick and gorgeous atmosphere, which is fascinating.
But the black-robed man didn't even have the interest to glance at it. He raised his arm to block the sun, cursing in a low voice of dissatisfaction, "Damn weather."
Then he walked half a circle around the Big Ben like a small house, and found the bell hammer hung by the chain.
The bell hammer is cast from pig iron, is more than a foot in diameter, weighs a thousand jin, and is covered with dust.
The black-robed man stretched out his skinny palm like a bird's claw, waved his big sleeve and swept it away, and a strong wind swept away the floating dust on it.
The black-robed man patted the bell hammer, his palm pressed the smooth surface of the bell hammer, his arm shook slightly.
The heavy bell hammer was as light as a stick of wood in his hand, the bell hammer moved backwards, and the hanging iron chain made a crunching sound that made teeth sour.
Seemingly slow and fast, the bell hammer suddenly withdrew a few feet back, and then rushed over at a faster speed. The hammer cast in the shape of a ram's head hit the bell heavily and sparks splashed.
The dust covering the big clock suddenly jumped up, and it was sprinkled down one after another.
"Hey..."
A dull and trembling loud noise.
The loud sound waves spread across the city like a tsunami.
Ordinary people who were loud enough to shook their hearing lost their hearing, but the black-robed people were unaffected, and continued to push the heavy bell hammer, hitting the clock harder than ever.
The bell ringing again and again took this as the origin, spreading out to the surroundings, covering the whole city of Akadrin.
Everyone clearly heard the melodious bells.
The bell sounded like magic, the pedestrians on the street stopped, the coachman tightened the reins, the people in the shop hurried out, and the busy street instantly solidified.
Everyone stood on the street, raising their heads and staring blankly at the towering spire of the Demon Temple, as if they were stunned.
"It was knocked."
"Big...big clock, it rang."
"How many years have it been? Six hundred or a thousand years?"
"The big bell rang."
"The big bell rang~!"
Morgan was playing a sport called golf with Joseph in the garden. The legend was passed down from the human side.
Just as Morgan was about to put the ball into the last hole, Joseph suddenly dropped the club, looked at the sky in the distance in surprise, and muttered: "The bell rang..."
Morgan slid his hand and missed a shot. The small ball rolled through the hole and raised his head in confusion, "What bell is ringing?"
"Big Ben in the palace, it rang." Joseph said blankly.
Morgan was stunned for a few seconds, and suddenly his expression changed dramatically. He threw the cue in his hand and pulled up Joseph, who was still in a daze, and shouted hurriedly: "Hurry up.
In the prime minister's mansion next to the palace, the secretary slammed open the prime minister's door in a panic.
With a loud "bang", Prime Minister Madolins shivered in fright, threw away the pen in his hand, raised his head and shouted angrily: "What's the matter?"
"It's ringing, it's ringing, it's ringing~!" The secretary pointed his finger out the window. Hurriedly shouted: "The Big Ben in the palace rang."
Madolins was taken aback for a moment, suddenly jumped up, kicked his seat down, rushed out with vigorous steps, and shouted, "Go to the palace..."
After speaking, Madolins was taken aback. The palace has been empty for thousands of years.
"Go to the temple~!" Madolins commanded loudly, rushing to the temple first.
At the same time, all the officials and nobles who heard the bells left their hands behind. Jump up at your fastest speed. Rush to the Great Demon Temple in the center of the city.
This big bell that hangs over the entire city will only be sounded when there are major events in the country.
For example, the emperor's death, the new emperor's accession to the throne, the emperor's wedding, the canonization of a prince, and so on are important events related to the fortune of the country.
But the Semi hasn't had an emperor for more than a thousand years, and Big Ben is ringing at this moment. It can only be the High Priest of the Undead, the supreme ruler of the Semitic. He rang the bell that represents the fate of the entire Semitic.
Everyone was thinking about the same question. What happened? Or. What's going to happen?
Anxiety occupies everyone's heart, and everyone flocks in one direction, the large square in front of the Demon Temple.
The originally empty square was quickly covered by nervous Semitic people. They eagerly looked into the tall Demon God Temple, eager to know why the bell that had been deposited for hundreds of years would ring again.
The last time it sounded, it was a war that expelled mankind, and welcomed the triumphant warrior who recovered the Caribbean.
At this moment, the door of the Demon Temple opened, and there were people trotting hurriedly all the way. Rush into the Demon Temple.
Royal nobles, prime ministers, heads of various departments, admirals of the imperial guards, commanders of the army, and those who ruled the country entered the deep hall of the demon at their fastest speed.
When Madolins ran into the Great Demon Temple panting, the undead high priest in a gray robe was slowly pacing back and forth in front of the altar.
Cameron stood silently behind him.
Madolins bowed respectfully to the undead high priest.
The high priest just glanced at Madolins, gave an invisible hmm, and waved his hand for Madolins to sit down.
Madolins sat in the front row nervously, quietly observing the people in the Demon Temple, wondering why the bell that had been silent for hundreds of years was ringing.
Edwood was also in the line, and stood at the closest position to the undead high priest.
It can be seen that his position in the Lich has been elevated to be second only to the Undead High Priest. On the contrary, Herod, who has been competing with him, is not here.
Edwood was surrounded by another lich, although there was only one side, Madolins knew this person and was called a teacher.
As a lich, his identity has always been a mystery, and he suddenly appeared in front of the undead high priest and was immediately trusted and reused.
Even a jealous person like Edwood maintained his politeness to him.
The other person beside the mysterious lich surprised Madolins.
He is a human, and he is wearing a white robe, which is very dazzling among the black lich.
He was short and thin, his face was vicissitudes of suffering, and his slender eyes showed a light of sadness.
Madolins knew this man, the bishop of the Holy See of Light who had defected from humans. Legend has it that he was persecuted by Lorraine, and he is a different enemy from Lorraine.
After changing a backer, Li was driven out by Lorraine. Before Lorraine was about to kill him, he risked smuggling from humans to the Semitic. After suffering all the way, when he walked to the Semitic coast, only left In one breath.
Because of his experience in Vatican, he is an important source of information about the Holy See.
Madolins had some guesses about what happened today, but he was not sure, because it was too unexpected.
People kept walking into the Demon God Temple, and the Great Demon God Temple, which had always been empty, rarely became crowded.
In front of the high priest, everyone bowed their heads obediently, not daring to make any noise.
Although the crowd was large, it was still quiet.
The high priest suddenly stopped, turned to face the thousands of people in the temple, and said in a low voice, "I know you are all wondering why the big bell is ringing."
The high priest's two-eyed spectator was a flash of spirit in the audience, raising their voices and said: "I have decided to launch an expedition to humans now~!"
Although his words were not high, they sounded like thunder and lightning in the ears of the gleaming people. The minds of everyone in the Demon Temple were blank.
Although they knew it was inevitable, the high priest had prepared for this for hundreds of years and regarded this war as the key to the survival of the dark wizards.
But this war, just so suddenly... has it come?
"Is it finally here?" Madolins said secretly in his heart. He had been looking forward to this day for countless days, but when the day finally came, Madolins had a strange feeling in his heart.
He doesn't seem to want this day to come, and it is best for the Semi people to always prepare for war instead of starting a war.
Madolins was surprised at why he had such a cowardly thought. Doesn't even a leader of the main battle faction like him want a war?
"No, of course not ~EbookFREE.me~ Madolins secretly told himself that when he fought on the battlefield many years ago, he was determined to expedition to the human continent and build his own immortal merits.
"Why is that?" Madolins lowered his head and frowned in thought, and suddenly understood that he was afraid of failure~!
Deep down in his heart, he still feared that Lingxian would repeat the mistakes it had made a thousand years ago, and return in a terrible defeat. It took hundreds of years of wounds to recover.
Last time their spirit flashes were stronger than they are now, and humans are weaker and smaller than they are now, but they still failed.
The current human power is ten times that of their Semites, can they still win?
The most powerful strategic weapon war fortress has expired. Human beings have artillery as a battlefield weapon. Can they win?
Despite his unwillingness to admit it, Madolins has to admit that their odds of winning are smaller than they were a thousand years ago.
Was it too hasty to start the war at this time? RQ
