Chapter 93 The war is about to begin
Chapter 93 The war is about to begin
Now that King Tianliang has been defeated, the Oran Empire will be destroyed.
As soon as Xu Mingxi stepped into the Oran Empire, he saw a scene of wailing everywhere and people living in misery, especially in the towns on the border between it and the Sun-Moon Empire. The streets were dilapidated and full of traces of bombing by soul guides.
Compared with the advanced soul guide technology of the Sun-Moon Empire, the Orlan Empire is just a poor and remote place. It is at an absolute disadvantage in the confrontation between the two. The people have suffered from the baptism of war and the luster in their eyes has been lost.
Unable to bear seeing this scene, Xu Mingxi decided to change their living environment after obtaining the ninth soul ring.
If there is a chance to plunder the treasury of the Orlan Empire, their national strength will decline and they will soon be defeated by the Sun-Moon Empire, so these people can join the Sun-Moon Empire.
He is such a good man. As for whether these people will become civilians or slaves after joining the Sun and Moon Empire, we have to ask them whether they have worked hard enough.
The Great Elder received information that the Moon-Worshiping Wolf King had appeared in the largest soul beast forest in the Orlan Empire seventy years ago. This soul beast forest was called Lanto, and was located at the border between the Orlan Empire and the Otto Empire.
Xu Mingxi and his companions did not hesitate. After failing to obtain any information in the outer town, they dived into the depths of the Lanto Forest.
The information about the Moon-Worshiping Wolf King was already out of date, so they could only start their search from the place where they had previously found him. Fortunately, the Lanto Forest was far smaller than the Demon Forest in terms of area, number and age of the soul beasts inside.
The Moon-Worshiping Wolf King is probably the strongest being here. With the strength of the four of them, they can't say they have an unimpeded path here, but they don't have to worry too much either.
In order to prevent any accidents, the four of them acted together, and Xu Mingxi held the medicine rabbit in his arms. Every night, he would draw a few rays of moonlight essence from the sky from time to time. Not only could this make the medicine rabbit grow faster, he also wanted to see if he could use this to lure out the Moon Worshiping Wolf King.
As a result, the Wolf King had not been seen for the time being, but many other soul beasts were lured out. Their desire for the essence of moonlight had even made them lose their minds, and they attacked everyone despite the pressure from the Great Elder, who was a Titled Douluo.
There was no other way. Xu Mingxi could only collect a wisp of it from different places every few hours to attract the Moon-Worshiping Wolf King. As for the Medicine Rabbit, it had to endure it for a while.
At the same time, in Oran City, the capital of the Oran Empire, a soul-guided carriage that was plain on the outside but luxurious on the inside drove into the palace.
The two guards looked at the carriage that just passed by, glanced at each other, and resumed their slacking state.
"Captain, the logo on that carriage just now seems to be the logo of the Otto Empire's royal family."
"I don't know. We just need to do our duty well. Only by watching less, talking less and doing less, can we live longer."
Calm was restored in front of the palace gate, but there were undercurrents inside the palace. The Emperor of the Oran Empire sat on the throne, holding a golden letter in his hand, looking at the middle-aged man in luxurious clothes standing below.
"Does Tony really think so, or is this just your Otto royal family falsely conveying his will."
"Your Majesty Lance, how dare we? Your Majesty Tony is the greatest figure in our Otto Empire. This letter was written by him personally."
"Hmph, I'll think about it. Come on, show the guest away."
"Then I'll trouble Your Majesty Lance to give a reply as soon as possible. This is the best time. If we wait any longer, our two empires will have no chance." With the departure of the envoy, the hall fell into silence again. Lance sat in his seat, looking at the letter in his hand over and over again.
Of course, he would not believe what the envoy of the Otto Empire had just said. Tony had long been stripped of his power by the Otto royal family. This letter was most likely forced upon Otto by them.
Tony had always been a peace advocate on the issue of the Sun-Moon Empire, but the letters he sent now were full of intentions to start a war. Lance had reason to suspect that Tony had been completely defeated in the power struggle in the Otto Empire.
The Otto Empire wants to start a war, and it will not allow the Orlan Empire to remain unscathed. It will inevitably drag it into the war. This is exactly what Lance is worried about now.
Lance was not clear about the situation in the Otto Empire, but he knew the situation in the Orlan Empire. Apart from an old Titled Douluo in the royal family, there was no other combat power that could be shown off.
In terms of soul guides, they don't know how far behind the Sun-Moon Empire. Once a war breaks out, the Oran Empire may perish quickly. It would be better to let Lance enjoy the throne for a few more days.
I don’t know what those people in the Otto Empire are thinking. Could it be that they have something to rely on that allows them to go to war with the Sun-Moon Empire?
It can't be that just because two big cities in the Sun-Moon Empire were destroyed and several Soul Douluo died, Lance couldn't understand it, but this didn't stop him from mobilizing the power of the Oran Empire and preparing for the upcoming war.
On the carriage leaving the Oran Empire, the Otto Empire's messenger looked back at the capital of the Oran Empire and smiled a cunning smile as if his plan had succeeded.
He saw that Lance was moved, so he had to be moved as well. In this way, he could complete that person's order, and after the task was accomplished, he would definitely be promoted to a noble title.
Thinking of the terrifying power of that adult, the messenger couldn't help but tremble. He really couldn't blame him for being afraid of death. That adult was definitely not someone they could resist. Instead of waiting to die, it was better to give it a try.
The royal powerful men of the Otto Empire gathered in the palace of Otto City, and the Emperor Tony of the Otto Empire was surrounded in the center with an ugly look on his face.
"You are accelerating the demise of our Otto Empire, do you know that?"
"Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. I have already broken through to the legendary Titled Douluo level. Together with the great elders and the combined strength of our two empires, we can definitely defeat the Sun-Moon Empire completely."
"You, you, you are so confused, Toba. Do you really think that only our two empires have hidden Titled Douluo? Do you really think that the Sun-Moon Empire has no foundation?"
"Brother, there is no point in saying more now. Just wait for me to return victorious and then abdicate."
The crowd dispersed and Tony collapsed directly on the throne. How could he not know that Toba was just coveting his position and wanted to find a reason to force him to step down.
However, attacking the Sun-Moon Empire was also his original intention. Ever since Toba broke through to the Titled Douluo level, he believed that he was definitely not inferior to Xu Zilong.
Those royal relatives also thought so. Now that the Sun Moon Empire's Risheng City and Yuesheng City were completely destroyed and suffered heavy losses, Toba could always delay Xu Zilong if he couldn't defeat him. Then, the two empires would attack with their powerful background and would surely win.
If only it were that simple. Tony sat alone in the empty palace, his sigh echoing for a long time.
