Fantasy Lords: Starting with the Pioneer Knight Chapter 105

Chapter 105: The turbulent Northland Province, the end of the Qing Dynasty

After three months, the Maine Alliance has gained a lot. Everyone's smile has not faded away, but among the smiles, everyone can't help but have a hint of worry in their expressions.

As the lords of the Northland Province, whether it is Baron Pape, Baron Valmy, Baron Graton, or the other two newly promoted barons, they have clearly felt that the atmosphere in the entire Northland Province is completely inappropriate.

In the past, the attacks of orcs usually lasted only one or two months, or at most three months.

But now the orcs' attack has lasted for four full months, and there is no sign of subsidence at all, and the situation is even getting more intense.

Under the current situation, if it continues, a full-scale war is not impossible.

Once a full-scale war breaks out, the results can be imagined.

Under the night, the stars are dotted.

The familiar system prompt sounded.

Daily information has been updated.

【1; A hundred miles to the west of you, there will be a group of crazy spider beasts, and the poison they possess is enough to poison a group of pig beasts, even second-level magic beasts will be affected】

【2: In the western part of the Autumn Leaf Territory, Lord Raymond accidentally discovered a small copper mine within the territory, and successfully defeated the green goblin and occupied the small copper mine...】

[3; Three days later, a group of second-level kobolds will invade an open territory in the north of where you are]

4: In the north of Eagle Ridge, the extreme cold coming from the Northland Glacier is about to spread, and the temperature will drop sharply. 】

【5；…】

8; Three hundred miles away from where you are, a group of tiger-headed people are attacking a territory to open up. In five hours, that territory will be unable to resist and will be broken through by the tiger-headed people]

　　9: Five hundred miles to the west. 】

Lines of text appeared. Looking at this information, Thor couldn't help but feel a sense of solemnity.

Compared to a few months ago, the number of orcs is obviously larger and their strength is stronger. At the beginning, most of them were only first-level orc tribes, and second-level ones are not uncommon. However, the daily intelligence in recent days , there are almost no first-level orc tribes, and most of them are second-level orc tribes.

And the pace of destruction in the northern territories is still accelerating.

“It's time to leave!”

After muttering to himself, Thor immediately made up his mind.

Three months of clean-up operations have yielded a great harvest.

Continue, although you can still gain more.

But the risks have also begun to increase.

Although there is daily information.

But just in case.

The next day.

The sun is shining.

Thor then summoned the five lords of the Maine League.

In the tent.

Five people gathered together.

Yesterday, a second-level kobold tribe was wiped out again, which undoubtedly allowed them to gain a lot again.

It's just that compared to usual, everyone's smiles were much less.

The turbulent current situation made them feel a little uneasy.

Even the harvest is not as exciting as before.

“Everyone, it's time for us to finish!”

Thor looked at the crowd and spoke in a deep voice.

“Indeed, it's time for us to leave. More than fifty pioneer territories have been destroyed in the north, and three baronies were even destroyed last month. I'm afraid war is not far away.”

Baron Pape took a deep breath, then nodded and spoke.

　A few people looked at each other and then nodded in unison.

No one objected.

Even though the harvests during the crackdown continued to increase.

But in such a turbulent situation, everyone knew that it was best not to continue this purge.

“Then it's decided!”

“Three days later, we are ready to return!”

Thor watched a few people nod, and he breathed a sigh of relief. The money was so impressive, but he was really afraid that these people wouldn't be able to hold it back.

Fortunately, the five of them are not that kind of people.

This is undoubtedly the best result.

Soon, the League of Maine began to organize itself rapidly.

Three days later, the group returned towards the Maine River Valley.

This was when the Maine Confederacy was withdrawing from the north.

The whole north was undoubtedly in chaos again.

A large number of orcs are constantly attacking.

Even the defense line in the north began to falter.

Reinforcements did arrive from the kingdom.

But as time goes by, there are more and more orc tribes.

Although there are no fifth-level orc tribes yet, there are already many fourth-level orc tribes.

The Earth Dragon Knights alone encountered more than five fourth-level orc tribes, and the Flying Eagle Knights' defense line also encountered two fourth-level orc tribes.

Even though the fourth-level orcs are generally weaker than the Sky Knights, they cannot withstand the overwhelming number.

Human sky knights often need to face two or even three fourth-level orcs.

Let alone the number below the fourth level.

The number of orcs is already greater than that of humans.

Even if the strength of the same level is somewhat inferior, the number is enough to make up for all the gaps.

If the northern border was not located, the Tulip Kingdom had established a long pass defense line, and I am afraid it would have been broken through at this moment.

“Duke Karenina, how long will it take for the second batch of support from the kingdom!”

“If this continues, we can't stop it!”

Marquis Lehman's face was pale, his breath was rising and falling, and there was a huge scar on his chest that was almost horizontal.

That was brought by a fourth-level orc.

As a peak earth knight, even if he only faced a fourth-level ordinary orc instead of a sky knight, he would still be unable to withstand it.

The only thing we are looking forward to at this moment is the second batch of support from the Kingdom.

Generally facing the attack of orcs.

The kingdom will present four stages.

The first stage is to be blocked by the stationed Dragon Knights and the Flying Eagle Knights. The second stage is for the kingdom to dispatch direct forces and the power of at least one duke. The third stage is for the kingdom to dispatch the three major dukes. As well as most of the kingdom's court forces, the fourth stage is the mobilization of the entire kingdom.

At this moment, the first batch of support in the second phase has arrived, but the situation is still not stable, and the second batch of support has been applied for.

“One month!”

“It will take another month!”

“Marquis Lehman, as you know, the kingdom war is about to break out. Most of the kingdom's forces have been deployed to prepare for the kingdom war. It will take some time.”

Duke Karenina also frowned.

His breath also vibrated.

At this moment, he was almost facing three fourth-order orcs by himself, and the pressure on him was extremely huge.

Even if he didn't have a sacred object, he might not be able to hold on at this moment.

The luster of the holy objects seems to have lost a bit.

“One month, Your Majesty, us!”

Marquis Lehman had a hint of bitterness on his face and did not continue.

And Duke Karenina did not speak.

Based on the current situation, if the orc tribe continues to increase.

Let alone a month, they can't stop us even if it's half a month. Silence, deathly silence.

No one spoke.

The next moment, when the orcs in front of them rose into the sky again, the knights of the Tulip Kingdom had no choice but to rush forward one after another on the pass.

Fighting broke out again.

“Boom!”

The magic crystal cannons are blooming with terrifying energy.

A large area of orcs in the distance was covered by the sea of thunder, and many orcs were directly annihilated.

The bright red blood soaked the entire ground and gradually turned into a stream. The stream spread and quietly flowed into the ground.

It's just that no one noticed this at this moment.

The human race is resisting with difficulty.

The orcs are attacking like crazy.

Continuously impacting the human defense line.

Time passes slowly.

Ten days passed quickly.

The situation does not seem to be as bad as imagined, and the orc tribe did not add new tribes.

This made everyone in the Earth Dragon Knights and the Flying Eagle Knights breathe a sigh of relief. Although the losses were still increasing every day, they were at least blocked.

It will only take more than half a month for the second batch of support from the Kingdom to arrive.

Without the fifth-level orcs joining, the turmoil and impact this time would be enough to calm down.

Of course these have nothing to do with the people of the Maine Confederacy.

This high-end existence is not something they can participate in.

Ten days have passed.

The people returned to the Maine Valley.

Compared to when we left, the changes in the entire Maine Valley are undoubtedly minimal.

Because it is close to the Northland Glacier, it has only suffered two attacks from the orc tribe in the past four months, both of which were only first level and did not have any impact on the Maine River Valley.

Under this situation, the entire Maine Valley is still in a prosperous situation.

Even due to the large-scale construction by the six lords, the entire Maine Valley was in full swing.

Compared to where it is in the north, it almost looks like two completely different worlds.

Looking at this peaceful environment, the five lords couldn't help but smile.

Then the six groups separated.

　　They returned to their respective territories.

Thor also returned to the Eagle Territory with his own troops.

Compared to when he left, the Eagle Territory has undoubtedly changed again.

Nearly all the farmland around the Eagle Territory was reclaimed. Within four months, golden rice ears filled the entire field. It was expected that this would be another bumper harvest.

In addition, around the entire Eagle Territory, a high-rise wall was built following Thor's arrangement. The wall made of bluestones was as high as three or four meters, giving the Eagle Territory the appearance of a small town. appearance.

This is also fortunate to have a large number of goblins joining us.

Otherwise, we don't know how long it will take to complete this construction and how much manpower is required.

As for the purpose of doing this, of course it is to prevent subsequent turmoil and even possible orc wars.

There won't be any big problems in the Northland Province. Not only the Tulip Kingdom will not allow it, but other kingdoms will not allow it. However, if the turmoil deepens, it is likely to break out, and he has to take precautions.

Although the castle is a kind of defensive building, it is better to add a city wall.

In fact, this is not only the case in Eagle Territory, but also in the newly built town in the north.

He even directed the men to dig the moat.

With these three layers of protection, he feels more at ease inside.

In the castle.

“My lord, at present, 80% of the construction planned by your lord has been completed. In the end, only the moat of the small town in the north and the moat of the Eagle Territory are left. It will take about a month.”

“In addition, some of the supplies you brought back cannot be sold. Lajos suggested that you take them to Loren City to try.”

Peros respectfully reported to Thor the information related to the entire Eagle Territory in the past few months.

Thor listened carefully.

In the four months since he left, Pelos has undoubtedly managed the entire Eagle Territory in order.

His abilities are no less than those of those officials.

Thor couldn't help but feel satisfied.

"good!"

“This time, you did a good job!”

“Anna, go get the contents of the second locker in the third row of my locker!”

Thor spoke.

"yes!"

Anna nodded and left quickly.

Soon a wooden box was brought in.

When the wooden box is opened.

Perlos could not help but breathe a little heavier.

That is clearly a sacred tree fruit.

"This is given to you as your reward this time. Practice well. Strength is the most important thing."

Thor spoke.

“Yes, sir!”

Peros spoke quickly with excitement.

“Get down!”

Thor waved his hand.

Peros then bowed and retreated.

“Anna, if you practice hard these days, you won't be very stable in the future.”

Peros stepped back, and Thor spoke softly to Anna.

“Okay, Master!”

Anna smiled and nodded obediently.

After Thor's instructions, he began to fall into deep thought.

It can be expected that the Northland Province will continue to be turbulent, and he must also consider the subsequent matters related to the entire territory.

Just how to deal with it is not that easy.

His strength is too weak.

There is not even an Earth Knight, so it is obviously impossible to play any role in this kind of turmoil.

“Sir Neil, you should be back soon!”

“I hope it will be soon!”

Thor sighed. At this moment, he could only look forward to some Neal Morton.

That person is the Sky Knight. If that person is there, the entire territory will have a high chance of surviving the upcoming turmoil.

Otherwise, relying solely on his current strength, once there is a large-scale turmoil in the Northland Province, he will have no choice but to abandon his territory.

There is no way the strength gap is too big.

A little late, a bit sluggish
