C21 The Dark Clouds of War

After meeting up with Acre and the others, Yu Tianchen and the rest returned to Zhonghua City.

Along the way, Acre and the others quickly found out that Tianchen had killed another Fire Holy Beast. Tianchen didn't need to say much about the dangerous part. Acre and the others could already feel the strong movement of the Fire Forbidden Incantation, Meteor Smash, from afar. Moreover, there was also Archmage, Carter, hiding among Acre and the others. Breith, the intense activity of the fire elements definitely could not escape Carter's senses. Although Carter only looked like a senior fire elemental mage on the surface, he believed that a small number of people would definitely be able to explain to Acre and the others.

This situation caused Neiger, who already had a bad habit, to continuously flatter Tianchen. His flattery was so loud that it shook the sky. However, on the way, Tianchen and the others' faces slowly became gloomy.

Along the way, although Tianchen and the others had returned to Sea Heaven Empire with the joy of victory at the beginning, But very quickly, they discovered that something was wrong. The closer they got to the border of Sea Heaven Empire, the more strange it was. The people of Black Heaven Empire began to keep a high level of vigilance towards Tianchen and his group. Tianchen's people also noticed that there seemed to be a lot of patrolling soldiers in each town. Even in a big city that passed by, they only found a few thousand soldiers. This was practically unheard of in Black Heaven Empire, a country founded by martial arts!

Was there going to be a war! Was it Sea Heaven Empire?

"Lord, the Black Heaven Empire seems to be mobilizing for war! It might be a war against the Sea Heaven Empire!" Acre said to Tianchen solemnly.

Although Acre's five men used to be bandits in Black Heaven Empire, they were not citizens of Black Heaven Empire. Therefore, Acre only judged the situation from a judgmental point of view.

"En, I also thought of this problem. It's just that the mobilization of Black Heaven Empire this time seems to be much greater than before. Could it be that the consumption of the Undead War has been restored?" Yao Chen was somewhat puzzled. His subordinates were also unable to answer this question.

"Alright, let's not care about anything else. Let's hurry up and rush back to the Zhonghua City before the true war between the Black Heaven Empire and Sea Heaven Empire begins. " Tianchen made the final decision.

After that, Tianchen and his group returned to Zhonghua City with the mentality of having fun. During the later part of the journey, Tianchen and his group had no choice but to eat and sleep in the open to avoid unnecessary trouble.

. . .

A few days later, Tianchen and his group returned to Zhonghua City. At the same time, a martial law had begun in Zhonghua City. The first thing that happened in the center of Sea Heaven Empire was the war mobilization of Black Heaven Empire. The order to carry out the war mobilization with all the cities at the border of Black Heaven Empire was soon passed down. The dark clouds of war covered the border of Sea Heaven Empire and Black Heaven Empire.

In the Prefecture of Zhonghua City, Tianchen had arranged for Acre and the other five people. He had also handed Little Black to Luo Lee to discipline. He went straight to the office. The loyal butler, Bonn, was already waiting for Tianchen there.

"Bonn, it seems like the war mobilization in Black Heaven Empire isn't that simple. " Tianchen asked Bonn with a questioning tone.

"Yes, master. According to the news, after the invasion of the undead in Black Heaven Empire was eliminated, the power of the nation was greatly reduced, the population was lost, and the power of the nation was deteriorating day by day. Although it has recovered a lot in recent years, compared to the power of the Sea Heaven Empire, it is much weaker. According to the situation, the Black Heaven Empire should not have the ability to wage war against the Sea Heaven Empire. "

"En, then why did I return all the way back and find out that Black Heaven Empire has mobilized a lot of troops? If my calculations are correct, Black Heaven Empire has at least a million soldiers, Chen Bing, at the border of Sea Heaven Empire. This is more than half of the army that Black Heaven Empire can mobilize. How can this be explained? "

"En, according to the information, the royal family of the Black Heaven Empire seems to be unstable. . . " Bonn slowly said a conjecture. "

According to the information, the Black Heaven Empire currently has 400,000 soldiers defending each city. 100,000 of them are the royal guards and 200,000 imperial city guards. 800,000 border defense forces. 1. 2 million regular soldiers belong to the four major legions and another 300,000 or so noble private soldiers. The total number of soldiers was about 3 million.

Recently, the old emperor of the Black Heaven Empire, Ferde. Holman seemed to be seriously ill, which caused the crisis of the throne to occur. The five heirs of Ferde, who had the right to inherit the throne, were all making arrangements to fight for the throne that Ferde had left behind after his death. The war mobilization against Sea Heaven Empire this time was a result of mutual compromise between the princes.

Although military strength was the best bargaining chip to consolidate and fight for the throne, But if these forces were not used by him, then military strength would become his stumbling block. The millions of troops mobilized to attack Sea Heaven Empire this time were made up of six hundred thousand people from the northern and eastern legions, which were completely under the control of the Emperor of Black Heaven Empire, Ferde, as well as part of the northern border's defensive forces and part of the city's garrison forces.

When the war broke out in the Sea Heaven Empire, it might be the last moment for the princes to fight for the throne, because the remaining troops were already in the hands of the princes.

"En! It seems like Sea Heaven Empire was really wronged this time. En, these few days, apart from war mobilization, what other new orders have been issued from the center of the Imperial Capital? " Tianchen said indifferently.

"Replying master, Deputy City Lord Robles has already been promoted to the count of the empire. Six days ago, he was transferred to a large city in the Three River Plain in the north as the city lord. "

"Oh?" Yu Tianchen raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "It seems that dragon knight's reputation is not bad. Robles is really lucky! In any large city in the Three River Plain. There are a lot of profits. . . Who is the Deputy City Lord now? "

Bonn said respectfully," It's Viscount Spark of Augden family. "

Yu Tianchen frowned. "Augden family? The Augden family of the six great Golden family in the continent?"

"Yes, master! It's the Golden family!" Bonn said respectfully.

"Looks like those guys still want to rub some sand into the Zhonghua City! Viscount Spark of Augden family? Isn't that the guy who became an Earth Level Knight at the age of 30? Hmph. . . " Yu Tianchen snorted heavily. He was very dissatisfied with the senseless behavior of those nobles in the capital.
