Chapter 600: Chapter 345: The City of Serbia Destroyed, Turmoil Fading (Part 2)
No one is a fool.
The premature demon beast attack.
And such a massive demon beast attack.
Coupled with the current situation of the other kingdoms, the three men all understood that this demon beast attack was probably not so simple.
They called for aid from the Royal Capital.
Whether the Royal Capital could receive it, and whether it could be "in time," no one dared to be certain.
"Gentlemen, prepare for a fight to the death!"
Looking at the silent two, the City Lord spoke softly.
Yet, this one sentence was met with no response.
The City Lord didn’t mind either.
His figure left the room directly.
Soon thereafter, orders were issued from the City Lord’s Mansion.
Soon, the entire City of Serbia was put on alert.
Each city gate began to be sealed, and the entire city entered a state of war.
Members of the Knight Order began to be mobilized.
The whole City of Serbia fell into tension instantly.
Fortunately, due to the nearly annual demon beast attacks, most of the citizens of Serbia were accustomed to it.
Hoo-hoo
The urgent sound of horns rose up.
At this moment, in the distance, dust was beginning to rise in the outside world.
The ground began to tremble violently.
A horde of demon beasts was surging towards the City of Serbia.
Each beast was enormous in size, numbering in the thousands, even tens of thousands, converging into a terrifying torrent. More importantly, among these demon beasts, there were some that made one’s scalp tingle just by looking at them.
Those were all Tier Three or higher demon beasts.
Among them, there were quite a few Tier Four beasts.
When three figures appeared on the city wall, their faces changed slightly.
Because in the distance, not only were there Tier Three and Tier Four beasts, but just as they had imagined, a Tier Five demon beast indeed appeared in the terrifying torrent in the distance.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Massive roaring sounds echoed.
The beasts charged quickly, and in the blink of an eye, they reached the city walls.
The battle erupted in that instant.
Far away.
Thor and his companions had traveled over dozens of miles after a day’s journey.
Yet, at this moment, Thor instinctively felt something, and his gaze instantly turned towards the road ahead.
"Has it begun?"
He whispered softly and couldn’t help but sigh.
To be honest, if possible, he wouldn’t mind helping the City of Serbia, even though ever since he entered the Sarca Kingdom, trouble had ensued continuously. But still, this was a city with a population in the hundreds of thousands, and letting them be annihilated wasn’t something Thor could easily accept.
Yet, as he understood from the daily intelligence system, staying there would be meaningless.
It would simply add another to the casualties.
What he could do at this moment was to relay the message to Canaan Academy.
He had already done that yesterday.
What remains is left to fate and what comes next.
"Phew!"
"Let’s go!"
"Let’s speed up, and try to cross the Sarca Kingdom and reach the Macedonian Kingdom within twenty days!"
Exhaling a deep breath, Thor addressed everyone.
"Yes!"
"Understood!"
One by one, they responded, unaware that the City of Serbia they had just left was already facing an unprecedented crisis.
As time slowly passed.
In the days that followed.
Whether due to changes in the storyline, or because the Sarca Kingdom itself was in unprecedented trouble.
His troubles didn’t appear again, not even being mentioned in the daily intelligence.
Fifteen days later.
He reached the border of the Sarca Kingdom.
At their current speed, it would take no more than three days for them to completely pass through the Sarca Kingdom and reach the Macedonian Kingdom.
However, at that moment, an astonishing piece of news arrived.
Five days ago, the City of Serbia was destroyed by demon beasts.
The entire city, and all its human inhabitants, were annihilated.
At the same time, not just the western City of Serbia, but even the northern Luoxiya City was also destroyed.
Unlike the destruction of the City of Serbia, no one even knew how Luoxiya City was destroyed.
Until a few days ago, when a merchant arrived in Luoxiya City and found nothing but ruins, the tens of thousands of inhabitants, including the Kingdom’s elite Knight Legions, had all vanished without a trace, leaving not a hint behind.
Listening to this news.
Even Marco and the others felt their scalps tingling.
Ivira remained silent.
Compared to their reactions, Thor’s reaction was notably smaller.
"It’s begun!"
Speaking softly, Thor shook his head.
He knew very well what had happened.
Both the City of Serbia and Luoxiya City were the handiwork of the Church of Gods.
Compared to their actions against the Tulip Kingdom and the Three Northern Countries, the Church of Gods was exerting much more influence over the eastern kingdoms.
Not only involving numerous Holy Sanctuaries but also plenty of Divine Domains and Deities.
That’s right, Deities.
Luoxiya City was taken care of by a Deity.
That’s why it was so silent.
As for why the scale was so large, the reason was simple; compared to the Three Northern Countries, these eastern kingdoms, especially Sarca Kingdom, had a much larger population. More people meant a larger scale sacrifice could be initiated.
The Sarca Kingdom was relatively better; in the daily intelligence, three kingdoms in the north had already disappeared completely.
At this moment, the continent truly began to experience intense upheaval.
Even with the involvement of Canaan Academy and another top academy, the turmoil could not be fully calmed down.
After all, the power left on the entire continent today wasn’t overwhelmingly dominant.
Take Canaan Academy, Ryze, the dean of Soul Academy, his strength is undoubtedly at the level of an Upper-Rank God, capable of suppressing many Upper-Rank Gods.
But the Church of Gods also had Upper-Rank God’s power.
Particularly with the successive eruptions of divine revelations, more deities have begun to descend.
This continued to diminish the advantages of the Two Great Empires.
At this moment, even many powerful kingdoms struggled to stabilize themselves.
"Sir, we, we!"
While thoughts churned, Marco cautiously looked at Thor, speaking with hesitation.
But before Thor could respond.
The next moment, he seemed to sense something.
His gaze swiftly turned to the sky.
And the moment he looked skyward.
In the distance, a figure was hurriedly flying towards them.
"Who is that?"
Thor was slightly startled, then his expression turned peculiar.
And with that peculiar expression, the figure arrived overhead and stopped above Thor.
"Boy, why are you walking so fast!"
"Almost wore me out!"
Speaking in an exasperated tone, the figure descended from the sky.
It was none other than Neil Morton.
At this moment, Neil Morton’s face was flushed red, and he was panting heavily. The continuous flight and several navigation errors had even left someone at the Peak of the Holy Domain like him feeling exhausted.
When he finally saw Thor, he breathed a long sigh of relief.
