Chapter 712 711. A gloomy afternoon in Genoa

While Murphy left the Land of Creation and returned to Shadow Valley with a strangely tired look on his face, a battle report about Black Flame Pass was finally sent to the Transanian embassy on the Genoa Peninsula.

With the communication efficiency of this world, such an important battle report should not have been delayed for so long.

But the problem is that before the Black Flame Pass fell, Lord Heather had already noticed that the communication over the Brass Fortress was completely blocked. Whether it was calculation orbs, psychic messages, or even the vampires using

Blood crystals that are in contact with each other cannot take effect.

Murphy said that it was the power of subspace at work, which forced the transmission of all battle reports back to the most primitive mode of transportation.

They need to use the Thieves Guild's channels to transmit information, and in order to prevent Dusk from interfering with it, they have to ask Madam Shani, who is currently in the Crimean Fortress, to use her Thorn Clan intelligence network to transmit battle reports.

This coming and going wastes too much time.

The time that the battle report was sent to the Genoa Peninsula was already in the afternoon two days after the battle at Black Flame Pass. Such a speed of delivery of the battle report in a war involving psychic factors would have led to a military court!

But the current situation is so bad that both the sender and the recipient have nothing to say.

After receiving the information personally delivered by a descendant of Grand Duke Shani, Professor Malcolm did not dare to waste any time and immediately brought it into the embassy and placed it on a balcony high up in the building.

I found Lord Paying who was painting here and handed it to him.

The Thousand-Year Lord of Vampires is quite stylish.

Even though the situation was now as bad as this, it still did not disturb his artistic mood. When Professor Malcolm handed the battle report to the Lord, he also took the time to take a look at the works that the Lord had been working on these past few days.

It was an oil painting made from a high place overlooking the entire Port Chardeau. It must be said that the artistic level of the Lord is really very high, which made Professor Malcolm, who is also a "cultural man", take a look.

I really like this unfinished painting.

The Lord not only used extremely realistic techniques to depict the halfling city in his eyes, but also used some surreal techniques to create a "tangible" haze that always shrouded the buildings in Port Chardeau.

” gesture.

If you look carefully, the haze on the screen looks like something evil is stretching its claws into this noisy city.

This detail gives this beautiful-looking landscape painting a certain "religious meaning" that is difficult to explain but definitely exists.

But the Lord did not paint because he was really free.

In fact, after dealing with the incident at the Witch Cafe, Lord Paying should leave here and return to the Blood Alliance clan's headquarters through the Brass Fortress.

It's not that he doesn't want to leave, he's trapped.

To be precise, there is no way to go through the Gorgon Pass via the Brass Fortress.

Just as Lord Heather predicted, many people in Port Chardeau have discovered the strange situation of the Brass Fortress in the past few days. Any messages leading there cannot be reached. There seems to be some kind of

The power shields that area.

This is no small thing!

The Brass Fortress was a military fortress that resisted the main force of the Jackal army during several black disasters. Those gathered there were by no means the army of the Brass Dwarves, but also the elves' ranger legions and part of the Songhai people's forerunners.

In fact, it is not correct for Murphy and Tris to ridicule the Kingdom of Plantagenet and the Kingdom of Nodtorf for their inaction. It is not that the two kings did not send troops to support the Black Disaster, but the direction of their support was not the Black Flame Pass.

They obviously made their judgment based on past experience.

Currently, the Brass Fortress also houses the elite Antani Chasseur Brigade of the Plantagenet Kingdom, as well as the two vanguard brigades of the Nordtov Kingdom's Southern Army.

It can be said that there is currently the area with the largest number of troops stationed on the mainland, and the jackals of the three clans have indeed been attacking various strategic locations in the Gorgon Pass near the Brass Fortress, but they have not yet launched an attack on the main body of the Brass Fortress.

attack.

Not only is Lord Paying currently waiting for news in Port Chardo, but the Elf Kingdom of Castile has also sent a high-status Moon Priest to sit here. She represents King Querion's views on the battlefield situation.

focus on.

After all, the commander in charge of the Elf Ranger Legion at this time is King Querion's only sister.

The situation in the Brass Fortress has touched the hearts of many people, but even a figure like Lord Paying is currently unable to figure out what exactly is going on at the Brass Fortress.

"Devil's Smoke"

While the Lord was reading the battle report, Professor Malcolm looked in the direction of Gorgon Pass and cursed in a low voice:

"That damn smoke blocked the scouts sent by the Steam Lords. I heard that even the Songhai people's navigation scarabs can't pass through it. If you go in, you will get lost. It's really a worrying situation. Maybe it's the Gnoll's.

Some kind of witchcraft?"

"Gnolls can't do this, Professor."

Lord Paying was very anxious, but he remained calm on the surface.

He read the battle report, frowned and explained casually:

"That should be some kind of power variant of subspace. That strange mist reminds me of seeing something similar during a trip to the Sea of ​​Mist.

Those Wave Fish people will spread such a fog before plundering a certain ship, cutting off all detection perceptions and completely disrupting the spatial system inside. Once they break in, it will be like entering a maze.

But this time the smoke covering the entire Gorgon Pass is obviously weird. I have invited the Stormrivers from the Kingdom of Atlan in the Great Reef Province to come and help. They are very experienced in dealing with this weird force.

Damn it!"

The Lord saw the second page of the battle report. After seeing the battle report saying that Lord Heather had unlocked the seal of the Lord of Darkness to block the gnoll's plague weapon, and was finally banished to the depths of the star realm, the Lord had seen so much.

He was very knowledgeable, and for the first time he broke his guard and scolded me.

He is really not in the mood to paint now.

As the person who helped Heather seal the power of the Lord of Darkness, no one understands better than Lord Paying the terrible consequences that the evil god will have once he is released.

But Heather knew this but still unblocked it, which shows how critical the situation at Black Flame Pass was at that time.

Even at the end of the battle report, Mrs. Shani reported to the Lord in a positive tone that hundreds of thousands of Splitclaw Clan's troops had been torn apart and executed by the Star Boundary, but this still could not make the Millennium Lord feel even a trace of the joy of revenge.

.

Heather is his heir.

Although the relationship was only formed because of an accident more than a hundred years ago, the Lord is indeed a very emotional person. After learning that his heir met such a tragic ending, the anger in his heart was somewhat uncontrollable.

Living.

"I must go to Transia! I must see the situation there with my own eyes. Our strategy has been misjudged. Compared to the Brass Fortress, the scale of the war after Transia will definitely be more bloody and crazy.

Perhaps, that is the center of gravity of this black disaster!"

The Lord handed the battle report to Professor Malcolm. The latter took it in his hand and read the beginning and looked shocked.

The entire position was destroyed, the gnoll vanguard was destroyed, the chief of the Splitclaw clan was crowned, and the second lord of the Blood Alliance disappeared. One of these things alone is enough to shock the continent. It is hard to imagine that they happened in the same place at the same time.

"Professor, I entrust you to immediately make three copies of this battle report and send them to the Steam Lords Council, Luna Priest Ms. Sylve Galanod and the Songhai Empire Embassy. They must understand the war at Black Flame Pass.

The end and the subsequent war situation in Transia will have an impact on the Black Disaster."

Lord Paying is a man of action.

After deciding to go to Transia in person, it was time to set off immediately.

As he put away his brushes and drawing board, he said to the serious-looking Professor Malcolm next to him:

"You also noticed in the battle report the warning from the Earth Mother to the Brass Dwarves, as well as the dusk threat that appeared below the position at Black Flame Pass. All of these directly point to the possible, or even already occurring, corruption of the Brass Dwarves.

There is also the threat of the Skaven that Governor Murphy emphasizes.

This means that the ending of the Brass Fortress may have been doomed in the eyes of the gods. I dare not guess what will happen next, but I guess that the situation of the Brass Fortress will usher in a big change.

Be sure to convey my warning to the halflings, and ask those stubborn isolationists to prepare defenses immediately. And ask the elves and Songhai fleets to take action immediately. If they do not come to support the Genoa Peninsula, then the situation here will deteriorate.

The situation would be catastrophic.

I will come back as soon as possible before things change."

"Lord, Transia needs support!"

Professor Malcolm said loudly:

"This battle report has explained the situation. The fact that the Knights of the Blood Alliance did not enter the Brass Fortress is the best news. This means that your clan can become the supporter Transia needs most."

"But if we give up our position, it means that the gnolls can occupy terrain that is more favorable for the attack on the Brass Fortress."

The Lord was quite embarrassed at this moment.

He said:

"You want me to choose between two battlefields, Professor, I can understand your mood, but there is still some time in Transia. I will discuss this matter with Grand Duke Tris and Governor Murphy. I must

I can't make my decision until I see your defense work with my own eyes.

But I will give you a promise. When you need time in Transia, the knights of the Blood Alliance will never be absent.

I have to leave now."

"You can take the Perfect Voyage Company's airship over."

Professor Malcolm advises:

"Captain Paula has bought four new airships here. They will leave the port in two hours and send a batch of military aid to Transia. It only takes two days to go straight there, which is longer than taking a steam train.

Much faster.”

"I have a horse that can definitely fly faster than your airship, and I can actually teleport."
