I entered the game in advance and found that I was invincible

Long Xiangtian interrogated them again, and then called his clerk.

List their crimes.

Befriend traitors and participate directly or indirectly in the assassination of King John.Murder of five nobles including Baron Dupont of Isilon Province.Looted and set fire to hundreds of houses in outer villages, and illegally traded with slave traders.

They have committed countless unspeakable crimes and are generally sent to the guillotine.

Long Xiangtian spoke at this time.

You are accused of disturbing the peace here in the Rhineland and killing its innocent people.Do you have anything to say?

Nothing, I was wrong, please let me go.

If you are merciful, I am willing to obey any request from you.Please give me another chance.Sergey's and Shinichi's bodies trembled and prostrated in front of him.

Acting very obedient, unlike their status as the leaders of the big family.

Long Xiangtian nodded, he pretended to have considered all this.

Of course, taking you as slaves is better than killing you directly.Using your status as patriarchs, I will definitely get great benefits.

Luo..Lord Regent, they are
Of course, that doesn't mean I simply forgive their crimes.Their sentences will be announced at a later date and they can now be held in an underground prison.

As soon as Long Xiangtian finished speaking, soldiers stepped forward to drag them away.

The judge looked quite angry.

If those rebels were left alive, it would be a stain on all those loyal to the Crown.Are you sure you want to leave that future trouble behind? "

This is necessary for the benefit and military strength of the kingdom. "

The sect system will soon be in full swing.Using these two leaders, he can enjoy many benefits in the early stage.

Because every three months, rewards will be issued according to the performance of the sect.The more sects served by his subordinates, the easier it is to get a better ranking.

Right now he's too skilled with magic to control the chiefs, but it will certainly be possible in the near future.

Of course, if they choose to serve him loyally, it is also possible, but considering their strong personalities, he feels that the possibility of this is quite small.

Still, a person's personality can change dramatically after a life-altering event.

Marcus, originally known as the Mad King, is one such example.

He started as a mercenary in the Principality of Yan, climbed all the way, and led his Black Lion Alliance to become a lord.

He was originally a kind and benevolent lord, but after being betrayed by the demon king Amon, he became a vengeful killer.

A completely different kind of madness than the psychopathic Logan.

Marcus, having lost everything, clings to his throne as he tries to become a god.

At the slightest sign of disloyalty, he tortured his people.If he could spare their lives, maybe a new Marcus would be born.

I must remove this cancer, Count Ludwig.

An ambitious person, in order to sit on the throne, he even did not hesitate to stand with the demons.If he is allowed to live, he will definitely become a disaster for the entire continent.

With piercing eyes, Long Xiangtian read the report on the kingdom's army given to him by the scribe.Eden Hall Castle, located in the east of Isilon Province.Behind its high walls, Count Ludwig and Count Isson are in a meeting.

I didn't know it would turn out like this.

Indeed, we were attacked by the army of the kingdom.

The rebels who had recently confronted the loyal army under the leadership of the Earl of Huntington were the pillars of these two men.

King John must have issued a royal proclamation to them before being poisoned by the Earl of Gwynn.

However, the Kingdom's army came to reinforce the Loyalists at the worst possible time, making their current situation seem hopeless.

Without this castle, we have no future.

I know we have to hold on to it no matter what.

The strategic location of the Halls of Eden was important due to its proximity to Serendia, Ionia, and Eruthonia.That must not be lost if they have any hope of winning the war in the long run.

It's sure to be an uphill battle, though, as they haven't received any reinforcements yet.

Although the gap between our two armies is huge, it's not that bad since they don't have many siege weapons.

Once again we failed to take Haswick.I don't understand why we have failed to take that city twice now.

If they can successfully capture Haswick, the capital of the Old Kingdom, the overall situation will change dramatically.

Count Ethan looked disappointed, but Count Ludwig remained calm.

According to my informant, there must be other forces at work.Maybe they have a family over there that we don't know about.

I'd be surprised if Lord Huntington sided with those aliens.He is too cautious.

It was not one or two things that exceeded their expectations.

Duke Arnold sits on the throne despite his status on the kill list, while someone unknown takes control of the regent position
What's more, they were completely caught off guard when they learned that Earl Gwen had been killed.In order to monitor him, he installed Shinichi, the patriarch of the Chiyue clan, as a double agent.Other than that, he's been a solid competitor.

It felt like they were missing something important.

Don't be too nervous, we still have a chance.

Do you think Melpheus will take part in the next battle?

He told me he would come with his army and it sounded like it would be huge.

As the demon kings woke up one by one, their planes began to stabilize.

Evil monsters are spawning again, and historical relics appear on their territory.

For this reason, Melfis was able to form an army of demons under the command of the 62nd Demon King Volak.

Their purpose is to obtain the Rhine Kingdom by any means.

We are basically servants of Melpheus now.We might even have to sell him our souls sooner or later.

It's no use worrying about that now.As long as we obey their orders, the demons will not touch us.

In order to reduce the influence of the kingdom's citizens, the Demon King Volak wants to rule the Rhine Kingdom from behind the scenes.

This is why he chose to help Count Ludwig.If the rebellion succeeds, Earl Ethan will be appointed as the prime minister, basically having great influence on central politics.

Of course, Earl Gwen, whom they judged to be a scheming man, was never fully included in their plan.

Hugh. I really hope this war ends soon.As our power grows, isn't it great that our two families can finally be united?

In the near future, all this will come true.But for now, let's worry about defending the castle, the enemy will come to the door soon.

The Kingdom's armies and Loyalists are currently advancing towards their castle.

After Count Ludwig finished speaking, a cloud of dust appeared on the hill.

Said that Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived.

Gather your troops, and the city gate cannot fall until Melfis arrives with reinforcements.

All their preparations have been done.They installed ballistic devices capable of firing huge arrows on the city walls.

Inside the castle, tweeters capable of firing heavy stones over long distances were installed.They also employ skilled mages to shoot down and siege approaching towers or crash vehicles.

This battle will determine their fate, so they don't hesitate to invest a lot of money.

In this kind of confrontation, both sides will definitely suffer big losses.

Come on, do your best.

Eden Hall's food reserves were enough to feed the troops for three months.Even if their opponent is a strategic genius, direct attack will not work.But even if they wanted to starve them to death, Melfis' demon army should have arrived long ago.

When Count Ludwig was triumphant, he heard a strange scream from the sky.

kaya!

There is a group of dragons on it.

All the soldiers who saw them trembled with fright.

What are you doing?Shoot them all!

Earl Ethan scolded them, and the archers finally cheered up.

As everyone knows!
However, these arrows are still not enough to destroy the dragon's stone skin.

Use the slingshot hand!

Count Ludwig followed behind with an order.After a while, the ballisticians shot big arrows, smashing Gargamel to pieces.

At least it works.

While it would be a pity to have to use their ballistic units just for this, there is no way around it.If their mages are busy chanting why, the loss is even greater.

When the dragons were killed one by one, a huge shadow hung over the heads of the rebel soldiers.

Undead griffins have appeared.

What the hell is that?
Is it too big?

It gives people an indescribable pressure.They're definitely a target to eliminate, but the players are reloading and they don't have effective means of attack.

The mages tried to send fireballs, but the griffin's dark armor gave them enough protection.

Lamps!
Terrariums rained down on soldiers, and wildfire exploded in their ranks.

Seeing the strange color of the flame, Count Ludwig's face became stiff.

This.
He had recently seen this liquid fire in Mediah, Liberty City.He tried to persuade the Cohen business group to reveal their sources, but they refused.

There is no doubt that there are some huge forces behind them.If they somehow get involved in this war.
I have a bad feeling.

His instinct kicked it, and he fled into the guards of the castle.

Ha!

On his griffin, the undead Li Xinyu tore up his magic scroll 【Rocket】.Shortly after, a barrage of rockets landed on the castle, shaking it to its knees and causing several explosions.

Boast! Boast! Boast!
Blazing flames devoured the soldiers and raged across the castle.Count Ludwig, watching from inside the tower, was stunned by the damage it did to the fortified castle walls.

Can not
Totally unexpected situation.Who on earth could do such a thing?

While Count Ludwig was still dazzled by the latest fireworks, a nearby soldier pointed at the gate and shouted.

Count, the enemy is trying to cross the moat!

While the soldiers in the castle were distracted by the latest attack, their troops were busy erecting a makeshift wooden bridge across the moat.Behind, several siege towers and battering rams were waiting to be sent forward.

Count Ludwig felt a sense of crisis, and he ran to shake a nearby mage awake.

Attention everyone! If they get to the gate with those things, we're all dead.

Fortunately, the area where the mages were located was protected by a magic barrier, so they were not harmed.

The same goes for the soldiers inside the castle guard or in any of the watchtowers.Count Ludwig, after gathering all the remaining soldiers, summoned them to fight desperately against the kingdom's army.

It's a pity that they have suffered too much and their morale has dropped to the lowest point, so it is not easy to gain a firm foothold.Judging from the current situation, it is certain that the Hall of Eden will fall into the hands of the Kingdom Army.

Everything is going according to plan.

Long Xiangtian observed the ongoing siege battle from a distance, and nodded.After appointing Joanna as regent, he became the new commander-in-chief of the whole army.The troops under the loyalty faction also agreed to obey his command.

Of course, none of them recognized him because he had taken off his mask.

I no longer have to hide my identity.

When he was the regent before, in order to avoid unnecessary attention, he always pretended to be someone else.But now he doesn't need to hide anymore, so he took off the 【Jester Mask】.

I can't spend any more time on this.

This rebellion must be ended as soon as possible, if Count Ludwig is dead, the rebels have no future and will soon surrender.

When Long Xiangtian was busy giving orders to the officers, Zheng Shangxun rode to his side.

Commander, a demon army is coming from the east.

How big is it?
It looked like there were about 7 people.

They have never mobilized many people, not to mention these are monsters.Even for veterans, it is difficult for them to win in one-on-one situations.

Basically, if they want to confront each other, they will be at a disadvantage.After thinking for a while, Long Xiangtian summoned those loyal nobles.

Help me block the advance of this demon egg.

The kingdom's armies must concentrate on taking the castle and bringing the Halls of Eden down before sunset.

The Loyalty faction alone has [-] soldiers, so it cannot be a hodgepodge.

After a while, I found a black creature charging in the distance.

Red-eyed demons, their appearance made the soldiers swallow nervously.

charge!Long Xiangtian pulled out Grandia's scabbard, and took the lead in riding on his white steed.His action cleared the fear in the hearts of the soldiers, who shouted bravely.

Wow!

The sound of metal clashing soon rang out, and the two sides collided with each other.Now that the morale of his subordinates is high, Long Xiangtian begins to look for the leader of the demon clan.

Maybe now it has regained quite a bit of power.

Amanda, who fought against him at Landium back then, only woke up for a short time and couldn't use her abilities freely.

This guy, however, was different.

Just because he can mobilize an army of [-] demons, it shows that he is a person of another level.

It seems that this matter cannot be resolved peacefully.The opponent has already suffered too much, so taking a step back is no longer an option.

If I don't get rid of him at this moment, he will undoubtedly turn his sword against the Rhine Kingdom again.

When Long Xiangtian was ready for the tough battle in the future, he heard a cold voice in his mind.

who are you?
Melfis.

He is communicating with his heart, in order not to reveal his position.

Asura, Demon King].

[Oh, it's no wonder I feel such a strong magical energy.But why is it the first time I hear your name?I have never seen you in the list of 72 demon kings]. ]
Like the family system on the player side, the ranking of the Yaozu is updated every three months.Through it, demons can view the level and status of other similar demons.

This is why Melfis is full of doubts.

I am from another world, but my environment is my own.

You may have your own reasons, but that doesn't mean I'll let you do whatever you want].

Melfis realized that it was Long Xiangtian who interfered with his plan again and again.

It's an easy guess since there really isn't any other explanation.

[]
While Long Xiangtian remained silent, a black portal appeared, and a blond young man came out, Melfis.

The Demon Lord Volak told me to take possession of the Rhine Kingdom at all costs, so I came here with half of his army.

I can understand your situation, let's just sort it out.

You seem so confident just because you are the devil.

Melfis smiled, and he unleashed his magic.His appearance changed dramatically, becoming a bipedal monster.

In order for him to unleash his full power, he needs to show himself in his true form.

It's ugly.

To be honest, I don't like this form too much, but what choice do I have to fight the devil.

Melfis was not stupid enough to fight against a demon king who was a whole level higher than him without any trump card.The reason behind his self-confidence is because of the power given to him by the Demon King Volak, which allowed him to awaken.

In his awakened state, not only his Stats will rise sharply, but the Demon Lord Volak can also directly occupy his body.

let us start.

If he can defeat this demon from another world, then he can be the one to inherit his title.

It was worthwhile for him to risk his life for this challenge.

As Melfis raised his hand, dark clouds appeared and purple lightning shot out.Uh Kuang!Kuang!

A storm appeared out of nowhere, and soldiers on both sides turned to look at the dark clouds gathering in the sky.

what's the weather
Is it going to rain?
Krrrrrr
The monsters realized what was happening, but the soldiers were still confused.

Seeing their confusion, Melfis smiled evilly.

Hahaha! They're all running around like frightened rats, take them down!
At his command, purple lightning bolts shot from above the clouds, and at the same time a black mist began to form near the ground, obscuring the soldiers' vision.

So you want to control the environment.

His purpose is to create an environment that matches the Demon Realm, thereby amplifying the strength of the Demon Race.

Long Xiangtian saw that the Demon King Volak was also involved, so he summoned his own undead troops without hesitation.

He has around 1500 undead.Judging by the size of the two sides, although not much, it is at least better than anything.

What's more, the power of his undead commanders cannot be ignored.Especially Isaac, with his ability to raise the dead as death knights, and James, the Oathbreaker.Both of these skills will have a big impact on the outcome of the battle.

Clara!
Melfis frowned when he saw the undead army appear.

It turns out that you have been hiding this trump card all along.It's not worth mentioning at all, though.Now that I've awakened the power of Lord Volak, I can handle these little chips with ease.
