Opening a fantasy anime world with the style of Mount & Blade

Page 101

Akavi, Yak, and Verna are all in their rooms now.

"That's wonderful, Your Excellency, you're finally awake!"

Please listen to my advice! Don't be so reckless in the future. That's a Blood Moon Werewolf!

Both in strength and speed, it surpasses the level of a silver-rank adventurer... Thankfully you are safe and sound.

As soon as Akavi saw that Liu Tianyu had woken up, he couldn't help but start lecturing him. However, in the end, his eyes showed a hint of affection, and he was unwilling to say anything harsh.

"It's a blessing that no one is hurt!"

Yak said indifferently, his expression as calm as ever.

“That’s great!”

Verna took a light drag on her cigarette, exhaled a smoke ring, and said something lightly, but her eyes still couldn't hide the worry in them.

"Yes, yes, I will definitely keep that in mind from now on. I was indeed a bit too presumptuous this time."

However, every cloud has a silver lining, and every fortune has a cloud. Thanks to this life-or-death experience, I have gained a lot!

Oh, right, how long was I unconscious? And weren't the people who brought me back a group of people wearing strange armor?

Liu Tianyu gave a few perfunctory replies before quickly returning to the main topic.

"Sir, you were unconscious for a whole day, and I brought you back."

Having confirmed that you would be well taken care of, I continued to lead my troops to conquer cities and strongholds for you. Now, the Joker Jack is dead, the Beggar King has fled, the Slave Tycoon has submitted, and the entire city of Lanaritta is under our control.

I know I have committed an act of usurpation, but aside from offering a city as a gift to celebrate our reunion, I, in my foolishness, truly do not know what else to do. Therefore, I beg your punishment!

Just as Liu Tianyu finished speaking, a young man in golden armor and robes pushed open the door and entered, taking over Liu Tianyu's words.

He then knelt on one knee in front of Liu Tianyu, his head, covered by a black iron mask, lowered so low that he dared not look Liu Tianyu in the eye.

As soon as Liu Yu finished speaking, Liu Tianyu heard the system notification.

You've won.

[Our casualties: Liu Tianyu (wounded)]

Friendly casualties: None

Enemy casualties: 678 (dead), 321 (wounded)

You have arrived in the city of Lanarita. The people here lead very ordinary lives, many are malnourished, and you can see many abandoned houses deep in the streets and alleys. Even the cats and dogs seem listless.

This city belongs to you; you see your flag planted on the city walls. The local residents' favorability towards you: 0.

Chapter 138 Green Tide Invasion

"So, the reason why my royal city and my palace have become so dilapidated is all because of that special envoy from the kingdom, Liu Tianyu."

Do you dare take responsibility for what you've said, Barco, the vice-captain of the Royal Guard?

In the temporary palace of the acropolis far from the royal city of Georal, King Prom sat on his throne, listening to the reports of the surviving royal guards, his face expressionless.

"Yes, Your Majesty! It was not just what I saw and heard. That night, all the residents, whether in the outer city or the inner city, witnessed that horrific scene!"

Liu summoned a terrifying dragon, as large as the sun, and rode it upwards.

The giant dragon, its entire body ablaze, unleashed a dragon roar spell, summoning a terrifying meteor that crashed down upon the entire royal city of Geolar!

If it weren't for everyone's united efforts, with all the residents of the royal city of Geolar contributing their own strength and unleashing the seventh-tier magic, Gods' Astound, the meteorite, with a diameter of 100 meters, would have been neutralized and turned into rubble.

Without everyone working together, if that terrifying meteorite were to fall, the entire royal city of Geolar would likely be destroyed!

The handsome young man, whose entire body was encased in black armor with only his head peeking out, lowered his head and spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Even though he said that, his body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

As the vice-captain of the Royal Guard, his duty is to protect the safety of the royal family and the palace.

Now, the Georal Palace has become the ruins of the Georal Palace, more than half of the Royal Guards have been lost, and even the captain of the Royal Guards is nowhere to be found.

This dealt a heavy blow to Barco, who had always upheld the Ten Codes of Knights in the morally corrupt Kingdom of Geolar.

Even now, just thinking about the fearsome power of the black dragon Drogon, and the terrifying, world-destroying force it unleashed, makes his legs go weak.

If the captain of the Royal Guard hadn't disappeared, and he, as the vice-captain, hadn't had to take on a leadership role and report the situation to King Prom alive, he probably would have slit his own throat on the spot.

"What about my daughter Freya? In that situation, as the hero of magic and the first princess, she should have been brave enough to take responsibility!"

Where did she go? Could it be that she was too scared to face a fully grown dragon for the first time and simply ran away?

King Prom did not press Barco's answer further, but instead changed the subject and inquired about Freya's situation.

"Your Majesty, I beg you to grant me death, but spare the surviving Royal Guard knights! Faced with such a walking natural disaster, it is simply beyond human power to resist!"

After the war, your subject has cleared the battlefield but found no trace of Princess Freya. She may be missing, kidnapped by Liu, or perhaps she has already sacrificed her life for the country!

Barker knelt on the ground, bowed his head, and pleaded loudly.

"..."

After hearing Barco's answer, King Prom said nothing more. He propped his head up with his right hand and tapped the throne rhythmically with his left.

“You’re right, Barco. Facing a mobile natural disaster like an adult dragon is indeed beyond human power to resist. As for killing you? There’s no need for that!”

After the dragon departed, you were able to quickly organize people to carry out the aftermath rescue and maintain order, which was already quite good. If I were to order your death, it would only make others think that I am a tyrant!

Since the fate of Captain Leonard of the Royal Guard is unknown, then you shall take his place as Captain of the Royal Guard!

After a long silence, King Prom slowly spoke.

"Yes, thank you for your grace, Your Majesty!"

Upon hearing that he wouldn't have to die, Bakko breathed a sigh of relief. Although he wasn't afraid of death, since the king had said he would pardon his sins, the king's order was of course the most important thing.

"Phew, I treated that envoy from the kingdom so well, but I never expected him to be such an evil bastard, as if he were possessed by a demon."

Give the order to issue a nationwide warrant for Liu Tianyu's arrest and to seal off the border. He dared to do such an outrageous thing in my kingdom, and he will not stay long!

We must stop him before he leaves the country and make him face the judgment he deserves!

After dealing with Barco's problem, King Prom shouted to everyone.

"Your Majesty, since that's the case, why not quickly recall Prince Norren, who is studying abroad? Prince Norren is skilled in strategy and will surely be able to share Your Majesty's burdens."

Just then, one of King Prom's courtiers stepped forward and made a suggestion.

"Noren? Fine, then let's bring her back right away!"

Then quickly inform the Sword Hero, the Cannon Hero, and the Three Heroes that the Kingdom of Geolar needs them to serve the country.

Liu Tianyu possesses a fully grown dragon and a well-equipped small force. Without a strong leader to lead the encirclement and annihilation of the force, it would be tantamount to sending them on a suicide mission.

"Alright, I've said my piece. Now, all of you get out of here and carry out my orders. Don't get in my way. I need to calm down!"

King Prom readily agreed, then suddenly let out a hysterical roar.

"Your Majesty is wise. We will take our leave now to carry out your orders."

Seeing King Prom suddenly enraged, the courtiers at the temporary palace fell silent and quickly took their leave, leaving only King Prom alone in the temporary palace.

King Prom appears calm now, but his daughter is in trouble, and his capital city almost disappeared from the map.

This series of blows would be unbearable for any normal person. Now that King Prom has given the order, they should hurry up and carry out the mission to avoid incurring his wrath.

After all the courtiers and the guards had left, King Prom, who had been grieving the loss of his daughter and whose face was gloomy, regained his composure.

"Snapped!"

After confirming that no one was in the temporary royal hall, King Prom snapped his fingers.

"Boom!"

A dull thud soon echoed from the temporary palace hall, and then a brightly lit tunnel appeared on the floor where the courtiers had just stood.

Looking at the brightly lit underground passage before him, King Prom rested his head on his hand, pondered for a moment, and then walked in without hesitation.

"Hehehe, it seems you've run into trouble, King Prom. It hasn't been that long since we last met, has it?"

Deep within the underground palace, King Prom stood before a giant mirror, but the mirror reflected not King Prom, but Gul'dan.

Seeing King Prom come to meet him again after only a few days, Gul'dan smiled. But if a child saw that smile, he would probably have nightmares for a month.

"Let's skip the pleasantries and sarcastic remarks, Gul'dan. I've come to you because I've run into a tricky situation."

But that doesn't mean I'm begging you. Don't forget, compared to me, you who are facing the end of the world are the ones in the most urgent need!

King Prom didn't want Dog Egg to gain the upper hand, so he coldly snorted expressionlessly.

"I am truly sorry for my rudeness. After all, we orcs are used to speaking frankly, and I hope you can understand."

Sensing King Prom's displeasure, Dog Egg shamelessly bowed and said with a sincere expression.

His attitude appeared as sincere as could be, showing absolutely no dignity befitting a powerful figure.

That makes sense, though. For Gou Dan, who is obsessed with power, let alone dignity and integrity, he would sell his very soul by the pound.

This is a critical moment, and we absolutely cannot afford to mess things up. As long as King Prom obediently opens the Dark Gate, we'll do anything, even make him kneel and kowtow.

Once the Dark Gate is opened, he can do whatever he wants with King Prom!

Just like in his original timeline, he repeatedly bowed his head, only to strike back hard against his master time and time again. The title of "Little Phoenix Fairy of Warcraft" is truly fitting for him!

"Hmph, Gul'dan, I know what you're thinking. What happened to the immortality I gave you? I can sense that my immortality has been implanted into me. You must have implanted it into yourself, right?"

Looking at Gul'dan with his head bowed, King Prom's face remained expressionless, but he felt much better inside. It was indeed a pleasure to make a race's dynasty bow down to him.

However, he wouldn't forget his business just because Gou Dan bowed his head.

After all, there is no definitive conclusion as to whether Freya is dead, alive, or captured.

If she were captured by Liu Tianyu and then revealed her secrets in order to survive, she would inevitably become an enemy of the order and suffer the treatment of a demon king.

Even his base, the Kingdom of Geolar, might become unstable.

After all, the race that was led to the continent of Telrim was a group of bloodthirsty orcs skilled in using evil magic!

What he's doing is practically no different from what a demon king would do.

But then again, believing in a great evil god like the Black God meant obtaining the terrifying, inhuman power of immortality from him.

Once it's revealed, he'll still be able to enjoy the same treatment as the Demon King.

It was precisely because his own background was not clean that King Prom was so eager for the power of the Draenor orcs.

Once millions of orcs, ogres, and Gronn join forces on the continent of Telrim and swear allegiance to him, what does it matter if he becomes a Demon King? After entering the pass, great scholars will surely debate with him!

"Of course, I've said it before, I'm willing to give everything for my people!"

Dog Egg revealed a compassionate expression, then tore open his robe, revealing a huge eyeball throbbing incessantly in the center of his heart.

"Very well, Gul'dan, I think I can trust you now! Get ready, three days from now, we'll open the Dark Portal together!"

As the host of the power of immortality, King Prom could still sense the power of immortality within Gul'dan, even though they were separated by two worlds.

It was the absolute confidence brought by his immortality that finally made him determined to open the Dark Portal and let Gul'dan lead the Draenor orcs into it!

"On behalf of all Draenor, I thank you for your mercy, Your Majesty!"

Dog Egg lowered his head deeply and bowed, a mocking glint flashing across his ugly face in the shadows where King Prom could not see.

Chapter 139 The Dark Gate, Activated!

Draenor, Hellfire Peninsula.

In a vast and magnificent fortress, yet filled with a wild and untamed style, there was already a great deal of noise.

Warsong Clan, Frostwolf Clan, Blackrock Clan, Bloodring Clan, Raider Clan...

Throughout the old tribe, clans of all sizes gathered together, filling the fortress with all sorts of noise.

The clan warriors chatted amongst themselves, discussing what changes Gul'dan's so-called plan would bring to the Horde and what glory it would bring to them.

The clan's artisans, under orders, worked diligently to produce a variety of rather rudimentary engineering machines, such as siege ladders, catapults, and battering rams, which were filled with a primitive and wild beauty.

The clan's warlocks gathered in twos and threes to discuss Gul'dan's plans and exchange their experiences with fel magic.

"Hahaha, slap him in the face! Mogolin!"

"Yes, yes, that's it! Kick his balls, Rolger!"
