Chapter 234 The Frontline

After briefly clearing up the troubles in the World Fragment, Duanmu Huai returned to the empire. He first went to Altdorf, and was then told that because the Chaos army was moving south, the emperor had led the coalition to Middenheim. So Duanmu Huai

We arrived at Middenheim again—a city that looked dilapidated and cold.

After receiving the notification, the emperor immediately ordered Duanmu Huai to be brought into the castle.

"Oh, my friend, you are finally back!"

Seeing Duanmu Huai enter the hall, the emperor sitting on the throne immediately stood up, laughed loudly, walked to Duanmu Huai, stretched out his hand to hug him hard, and then patted his back.

"I have already heard from Lord Bato about the specific situation."

Karl smiled and nodded, then looked at Duanmuhuai again.

"So, how is the situation over there?"

"Fulfilling the mission."

Duanmu Huai nodded.

"The Skaven are no longer a threat. At least for a long time, they won't be able to cause any more trouble."

Duanmuhuai did not directly tell Karl that he had killed the Horned Rat. After all, he also knew that for people in this world, this is a difficult concept to understand. Perhaps for the Inquisition that once spanned the galaxy, the Horned Rat was ultimately

Just an ordinary planet

A slightly more powerful subspace creature on the planet, but to the people living on this planet, although the horned rat is not strong, it is indeed a god. If Duanmuhuai tells Karl that he has killed a god...

...Well, whether he believes it or not is another matter.

"really!"

Hearing Duanmuhuai's answer, Karl laughed.

"I knew you wouldn't let me down, and I also guessed what you must have done to make those ratmen escape!"

"oh?"

Hearing Karl's words, Duanmuhuai became a little curious. At that time, almost no one knew about his killing of the horned rat. Could it be that Karl was entrusted with a dream by a god?

"That's right."

Seeing the confusion on Duanmu Huai's face, Karl smiled and explained to him.

"Not long ago, I received news from the High King. He said that he had received a revelation from the gods. The threat of the dwarves underground has been eradicated. In return, they will join the United Army to fight against the forces of Chaos. I knew that, for sure.

What did you do!"

"Oh...that's it."

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai immediately understood that the dwarves and the rat men were mortal enemies. He had killed the horned rat, and the happiest thing was naturally the dwarf gods. Because this meant the complete collapse and demise of the rat race, and in return, the dwarves

Of course, the gods would not sit idly by and ignore the current situation of the coalition forces. So they asked the High King to lead the reinforcements and come to assist the coalition forces.

A large part of the reason why the dwarves were divided was because of the threat of the rat men. Now that the rat men were dead, the dwarves naturally had no reason to oppose them. In addition, the High King had the oracle in hand, so

The dwarves also immediately gathered their army and headed to Middenheim to join the coalition forces.

Karl is naturally very happy about this. Now that the chaos is strong, the coalition forces on his side can no longer withstand it. The arrival of the dwarves will not only bring them a new force, not to mention that the dwarves themselves are good at making weapons.

In this regard, they can also bring considerable help to the coalition forces.

"So, how is the situation on the front line now?"

After chatting for a while, Duanmu Huai immediately got down to business. He was not interested in nonsense like today's weather. Just look at the heavy snow outside Middenheim and you will know what the weather is like.

"Frankly speaking, the situation is not optimistic."

After saying this, Karl also calmed down his expression. He took Duanmuhuai to a sand table, and then explained to him the situation of the battle at hand.

The Chaos army in front of us can be said to be all elite. They directly blocked the road in front of Middenheim. If Middenheim was not in a position suitable for a defensive battle, and Ulric's Holy Fire stopped all the Chaos monsters,

So close, I'm afraid Middenheim has already fallen.

Among the Chaos army, the army of the God of Disease occupies the main force, and other Chaos armies are also included.

It should be noted here that the Chaos beliefs of those Yankees are actually not clear at all. Any guy born in the northern tribe is likely to get the attention of four Chaos Evil Gods at the same time. Of course, as for him, he will choose to succumb in the end.

Which evil god he chooses depends on his own choice and which evil god he likes more.

Leading the vanguard of the disease army are the three brothers of Grot, the Chaos Lords of the God of Disease. One of them is a huge disease beast, and the other two are the champion warriors of the God of Disease and those who spread the plague disease.

Disease Mages. In addition, there are also the Pox Maggot Knights from Ice Peak. They lead the terrifying plague army of the God of Disease, polluting almost everything along the way.

In addition, there is also the army of the Chaos Lord of the God of Tyranny - the "Bloody Valkyrie" Valkia, and the Blood Dragon, a vampire knight order that has surrendered to the God of Tyranny.

The servant of the God of Desire - "Beauty" Sigvald also showed no less terror and terror than the tyrannical army. His "creative" killing methods made the enemy terrified and also made people irresistible.

His strength.

The God of Deceit's choice - "The Cursed" Wilich is equally troublesome. The power of the Twisted Twins controls the wind of magic to rage on the battlefield, bringing unspeakable curses and obscure destruction.

The only reason why the Chaos Alliance failed to defeat the Alliance Army was that Ulric's Holy Fire and the cold winter were too unfriendly to spread love to the God of Disease.

If it were spring when everything revives... maybe the whole city would grow flowers.

Karl is also very aware of this, so he hopes to end this war before the arrival of spring. Although the dimension of Middenheim is higher, the arrival of spring will be slower, but it is not impossible. He wants to completely eliminate it before then.

The chaos alliance is almost impossible, not to mention that the legendary Eternal God Chosen Archaon has not yet appeared.

Well, just like an RPG game, you probably have to kill the four kings before the BOSS will jump out and fight you.

In addition to the armies led by these Chaos Lords, the Beastmen, who have always been Middenheim's worst enemy, also found an organization and joined the Chaos army. This made the threat to the coalition forces even higher.

The coalition forces on Karl's side may sound grand, but in fact they are miserable. Altdorf needs to be stationed, and the empire's borders need to be guarded, not to mention that his three idiot heirs fought with each other and consumed a lot of troops. Now they can

Naturally, the number of troops that were barely able to stop them could not be compared with the Chaos army.

Needless to mention the elves and Kislev, the elves only have a small delegation of a hundred people, and Kislev is fierce, but they only have remnants left. Fortunately, the Knights of Baator brought by the Green Knight can be regarded as

Barely filling part of the vacancy - this is why Karl was so happy when he learned that the Dwarf High King would send reinforcements.

Otherwise, if this continues, a war of attrition alone will not be enough.

"So, what we have to do next is to kill these idiot Chaos Lords first, and then drag Archaon to the front line to kill him..."

Duanmuhuai looked at the sand table and began to calculate silently.

"Yes, what do you think?"

"My idea is very simple, just call him directly."

Duanmu Huai stretched out his hand and pressed it on the side of the Chaos army on the sand table, crushing all the flags and signs placed on it into pieces.

"I have brought an army of three thousand people. I believe they are strong enough to deal with these chaotic forces."

"oh?"

Hearing this, Karl was stunned for a moment. In this world, an army of three thousand people was not a small number. Although he didn't know where Duanmu Huai found the people, Karl still welcomed new blood to join him.

"Of course, I'm more than welcome. Where are they?"

"When the battle begins, they will appear."

Duanmu Huai didn't intend to expose the reinforcements too early, and Capita-6 did complain to himself, saying that their butts up there were moldy - you're a robot and you're still afraid of moldiness in your butts? Can I give you some engine oil?

?

Of course, the guardians have not been idle during this period. The battleships have been monitoring the frontal battlefield so that they can understand the various abilities of the Chaos army and not rush forward to die with a blind eye, although the guardians cannot die.

, but you have to be careful, right?

After all, the guardian is not really immortal.

Now, it's time for them to take action.

This time, Duanmu Huai did not call anyone else. He only planned to take Ojis and An to act with him. After all, this time it was a battle between two armies. It was not an adventure like usual, and girls were not suitable to be among the large armies.

During the battle, Gulea seemed to be still busy with Regnis' internal affairs. Although the "Dragon Roar" she learned was very helpful in this war, Duanmuhuai decided to hide her temporarily considering her identity.

Get up and call her again unless something goes wrong.

After that, Duanmuhuai said goodbye to Karl and wandered around the city of Middenheim alone. Perhaps because of the war, Middenheim was becoming more and more desolate at this moment, and most of the residents seemed to have already fled the city.

There were heavily armed soldiers everywhere, and Duanmuhuai came to the temple of Yurik and stared at the pure white flames burning in the huge brazier.

This is Ulric's Holy Fire...

Standing in front of the temple, staring at the holy fire in front of him, Duanmu Huai fell into deep thought. If he remembered correctly, according to the posts on the forum, the Chaos army occupied Middenheim and was under the Temple of Ulric.

A powerful artifact was dug up and the planet was destroyed.

But judging from Karl's words, it seems that as long as the Ulric Holy Fire is still burning, the Chaos army will not be able to enter the city.

So... what exactly caused the Chaos army to capture this place?

Is Ulric's Holy Fire extinguished?

Why does it go out?

There is no answer given in the forum, and I guess players don’t know either.

But for Duanmuhuai, this issue is very important.

Maybe you need to pay more attention here.

Duanmuhuai looked at Yurik's Holy Fire again, then withdrew his gaze and turned to leave.

Tomorrow, there is still a big battle waiting for him.

However, just when Duanmuhuai was about to go back to the castle to rest for a while, suddenly, a voice sounded from behind him.

"Long time no see, Lord Knight."

Duanmu Huai turned around and saw an elf looking at him with a smile - well, no need to ask, this is Alishara, the Son of Eternity.

"Hello, miss, I haven't seen you for a while."

Duanmuhuai also nodded and saluted her, while the latter stared at Duanmuhuai with an unchanging expression, with a certain kind of joyful light shining in his eyes.

"You seem to be more imposing than before. I really don't know what you have gone through to have such outstanding charm."

"Uh...thank you for the compliment. I just got rid of the four evils."

Hearing Alisala's words, Duanmu Huai twitched the corners of his eyes. He really couldn't figure out whether the princess's words were sincere or mocking him.

"I have learned from His Majesty the Emperor that you will also participate in the next war. It is truly an honor for me to be able to fight alongside you..."

As she spoke, Alisala trembled. Her expression was as if a fanatic fan had seen her star - but Duanmuhuai really couldn't understand the brain circuit of the princess. He stared at the other party and couldn't help but feel curious.

She took half a step back, and Alisara seemed to have noticed her gaffe at this time and hurriedly came to her senses.

"Sorry, I was just excited for the moment. Then, we'll see you tomorrow."

After saying this, Alisala bent her knees and saluted Duanmuhuai, then turned and left. Duanmuhuai, on the other hand, looked at Alisala's retreating back and scratched his head in confusion.

What the hell is this woman doing??
