Chapter 1281
Episode 1281. The person who will share the fate of Axisium
The plains of Evrima were wide.
No matter where you look in the east, west, south, or north, you can see the horizon.
At first, thanks to the hills along the coast, I was able to roughly guess the direction, but as I went inland, even that became impossible.
It was the horizon in any direction, so it was perfect for beginners to get lost.
Fortunately, however, Merdef had experience and Baron Howard Solon had learned about the Abyss at the academy, so that didn’t happen.
Even though they went to the same academy, in Fabian’s case, he didn’t know much about the Abyss.
It happened because the educational process of the northern and southern academies was slightly different.
This is because the northern academy focused on the potential danger Tamion, while the southern academy focused on developing the Abyss.
Geopolitically located in the middle of the empire, the academy taught Tamion and Abyss under the pretext of managing the continent of Rodina.
For that reason, Fabian’s knowledge of the Abyss was shallow, and he didn’t even know how to find his way in the plains of Evrima.
Merdef, who was naturally a guide, consulted with Baron Howard Solon to determine the direction, and each time Fabian received a scolding, not a scolding from Elio.
After lunch, Merdef approached Baron Howard Solon.
Last night, the clouds were thick and I couldn’t check the constellations enough, so I’m asking for advice.
Elio, who was watching the heated discussion between the two, asked Fabian.
“Fabian, did you come to the academy?”
“It came.”
“Then you should go and say something.”
“How many times can I tell you? In the north, only the concept of the Abyss is taught. If this was Tamion, Lord Lagoa and I would have been doing that.”
“Am I with you?”
“Sir Lagoa, isn’t he blind?”
“Still, Tamion is a piece of cake. But what does the Northern Academy teach you about Tamion?”
“I teach mainly about ancient history. It is based on the data before the formation of the ice wall.”
“You do stupid things. See Southern Academy. How practical is it? In this empty field, we find our way only by looking at the constellations.”
“…”
Fabian did not object.
In fact, it was true that the education of the Northern Academy for the Abyss was poor.
Even so, it was a bit unfair to compare the southern and northern regions, where Abyss information was updated every month by adventurers and mercenaries.
“Even though it is based on ancient history, the topography of Tameion and the types of monsters do not change… It is not useless at all.”
“okay okay. don’t get excited By the way, didn’t the adventurers and mercenaries of the north also visit the Abyss? But didn’t it reflect?”
“It is because it is a personal action. There are also people who went down to the South and never returned.”
“Why aren’t you going back?”
“I’ve seen Lagoa too, but isn’t the north a good place to live?”
“Have you migrated at all?”
“Because the central and southern regions are good places to live and there are many jobs. Don’t you know if there is a territory in the north like Sir Lagoa or Sir Omar? Ordinary people do not go back to the North for a while.”
“So there is no Abyss information?”
“I heard that when I was in the academy. I don’t know to what extent this is true.”
“Right.”
As Elio nodded, Merdef and Tinelock began to move.
The conversation between Elio and Fabian also ended naturally.
Fabian, who was walking in pace with Baron Howard Solon, asked sneakily.
“Is there a problem with orientation?”
“Weren’t the clouds a bit thick last night? It was difficult to identify the constellations.”
“So?”
“I’m asking if the direction is right, do you think it’s me? For now, I concluded to keep the direction I was going in as much as possible.”
“Is that possible?”
“It’s difficult, but right now there is no other way. It really means ‘Little Sky Circuit (Suzhoucheon)’. You say to send mana through blood vessels, but what is that?”
Crea, who had recently been receiving instruction from the saintess, also paid attention to Fabian’s mouth.
Fabian, who had been depressed, quickly broke his luck with a proud face.
“Little Sky Circuit is heart first. Oh, when I say heart, do you still not understand? So it’s called will. Think of it as me taking the initiative in mana and pushing it into your veins.”
“Mana belongs to Mana Frathras, but how can it be…”
“Isn’t it a gift from Mana Frathras? If you receive it, then it is mine. Think of it as mine. If that doesn’t work, you won’t learn the little sky circuit.”
This time, Crea asked.
“It’s because I don’t know the laws of the Mana Phras Church. Wouldn’t that amount to blasphemy or impiety?”
“If you talk about it with your mouth, some people might get into a fight. But I think with my heart, who knows?”
It is said that it may be subject to blasphemy or disrespect.
“yes.”
Crea, a former mercenary, fully agreed with Baron Cloud’s words.
As long as he didn’t brag about it, it was nothing to worry about.
As Baron Howard Solon and Crea nodded, Fabian continued talking.
“And let’s not say blood vessels. It felt so narrow, Lord Omar and I decided to call it the ‘Blood Road’.”
“ah!”
At that moment, an exclamation flowed from Baron Howard Solon’s mouth.
It was because the word “Blood Road” touched my heart more than blood vessels.
Fabian generously gave his experience to Baron Howard Solon and Crea.
It was because while I was with the two of them in Abyss, I became quite attached to them and didn’t feel like others.
Principality of Topla.
Urban, an industrial city in the southern part of the Empire.
Dawn before dawn yet.
In front of the firmly closed gates, expeditionary forces summoned from the principality arrived one after another.
Because of the staggering number of more than one million, the expeditionary force could not enter the city and made a temporary base in the outskirts.
Louis Fraser III, commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force, arrived around noon and led his staff into the city under the escort of the Templars.
The ruler of Urban, Count Christopher Curley, and the commander of the Shade Expeditionary Force, the Marquis Peron Carlisle, greeted the prince with firm faces.
The prince, who greeted Count Christopher Curley, passed by the commander, the Marquis of Peron Carlisle.
Marquis Carlisle of Peron matched his stride with the prince without a word.
The prince looked around the city and asked with a nonchalant face.
“How many troops do you have left?”
“I am arrogant.”
The Shade Expeditionary Force was 800,000, so it was a huge loss.
Maybe that’s why the expression of the Marquis Carlisle of Peron was not bright.
“What about the southern kingdom army?”
“Out of the 1.2 million Allied Forces of Shade Adria Masdar Bostania, nine hundred thousand remain. It sounds like an excuse, but the Shade Expeditionary Force suffered little damage until the Iron Golem appeared.”
“I heard that 15 steel golems appeared in Torrens. Do you know how many iron golems they have?”
“We’ve sent informants to the southern kingdoms, but we haven’t found out yet.”
“Could there be more?”
“They only had five maneuvers before Torres. The Shade Expeditionary Force was also deployed accordingly. Then, one day, 15 planes were suddenly sent to break the front line. They are like foxes, so I don’t know how they will come out.”
“hmm! No matter how many times the number of steel golems tripled, it took too much damage.”
“I apologize.”
“Right now, Kyung is on my side, so he’s quiet, but he won’t be quiet forever.”
“If you give me a chance, I will definitely take revenge.”
“Are you serious?”
“yes.”
Marquis Peron Carlisle, commander of the defeated Shade Expeditionary Force, gritted his teeth.
Too much damage has been done to the empire.
At this rate, the Marquis of Carlisle could end up on the path of downfall. He couldn’t let that happen to his generation.
“We created a batalion unit in preparation for the steel golem. Be at the forefront of restoring Torres with the remaining Shade Expeditionary Forces and Batalion troops.”
“His Highness, the Shade Expeditionary Force’s morale has fallen to the ground. It’s embarrassing, but the Shade Expeditionary Force will run away just by looking at the steel golem.”
Being trampled on by an army of 800,000, but standing in the vanguard with only 50?
For a moment, Marquis Carlisle of Peron doubted whether the crown prince was abandoning him.
“why? Are you not confident? That’s why I’m going to send the batalion unit with you.”
“Can the batalion unit fight the iron golem?”
“The Batalion unit has 300 musketeers armed with excitium and 3 3rd generation Goliaths that are as good as steel golems. I think that would be possible.”
“Did you say excitium?”
“Yes, it is the ultimate magic bullet designed for killing sword masters. Do you think Xytium can’t pierce an iron golem’s armor?”
“no. it’s possible. Did you say that the musketeers armed with the excitium were 300?”
“Yes. Hearing the news that a steel golem had appeared, he cut down a mage tower and made it. The 3rd generation Goliath will also be stocked 3 times a month. How is it? Doesn’t your heart feel a little bigger now?”
“Yes, I am relieved to hear Your Highness’ words. But will a third-generation Goliath be a match for the Iron Golem?”
“Of course not. Here’s the battle plan my staff and I came up with. In conclusion, the 3rd generation Goliath is bait. If you put up a 3rd gen Goliath, enemies will respond with steel golems. At that time, 300 musketeers poured excitium. No matter how strong the steel golem’s armor is, I don’t think it will withstand that much firepower.”
“It is.”
Marquis Carlisle of Peron secretly examined the prince’s complexion.
It was meaningless to point out the danger of it when the excitium unit was created and led.
It’s already spilled water, so it’s best to minimize side effects.
“There is a Battalion unit stationed outside the gate, so go and meet the unit commander.”
“Who is the unit commander?”
“I am Viscount Krano Vanek.”
At the name he had never heard before, Marquis Carlisle of Peron tilted his head.
‘Were there any nobles like that among His Majesty’s aides?’
The nobles of the system had known each other, but it was a name I had never heard of.
“Since it is a fallen family of the Principality of Latium, no one will know about it.”
“Ah….”
“At this point, it would be okay for the Marquis Carlisle to take Viscount Vanek.”
It is said to make one’s own person.
“Yes, I will.”
“But don’t get too close. Because you are the one who will share your fate with Axisium.”
At the meaningful words, Marquis Carlisle of Peron looked at the crown prince involuntarily.
However, the prince did not explain in detail as absolutes always do.
that afternoon.
Marquis Carlisle of Peron took his staff and escaped out of the gates.
It was to directly check the batalion unit that the crown prince was proud of.
Viscount Krano Vanek, the Battalion unit commander, introduced the two company commanders to Marquis Peron Carlisle.
“On the left is Baron Philos Harwood, commander of the Musketeers Company, and on the right is Baron Roger Whannell, commander of the Goliath Company. say hello This is the commander of the Shade Expeditionary Force, the Marquis of Peron Carlisle.”
At the words of the unit commander, the two company commanders raised their heads with disciplined faces.
“I am Baron Philos Harwood, commander of the Musketeer Company!”
“I am Baron Roger Whannell, the commander of the Goliath company!”
The gaze of the Marquis Carlisle of Peron, who nodded, turned to the Goliath company commander.
“I heard that Goliath is in the 3rd generation, have you already formed a company?”
“We currently have 30 Goliath engineers. It was like that because it was going to increase by 30 every month.”
“Right. You know that Goliath is the spearhead of the battle, right? We will launch a massive counterattack soon, so make sure there are no disruptions to the operation.”
“yes!”
Marquis Peron Carlisle nodded and moved to the commander’s barracks.
It was to fulfill the prince’s order to collect him.
‘But what does it mean to share fate with Excitium?’
