Mount & Blade: Wind of War

Chapter 485: Changes in the World, Invasion of Hell

Facing Rhodes, who had a good relationship with her, the heavier her tone, the uglier her face and attitude, the weaker she was, and the weaker she was, the stronger she would be. Ounila breathed a sigh of relief, and she felt a little weaker.

"Duke Rhodes, you don't know the secret. It's not that my mentor is greedy, but that during this period of time, the mentor followed Lord Alantier to clear out the demon army invading from the hell plane. The intensity was so great that even the mentor felt overwhelmed, so a large amount of magic crystals were needed to replenish it."

"Your territory has been filled with a large number of ancient orcs during this period of time. They have been consumed in the battle with the hell demon army. Otherwise, you would have clearly felt the changes in the whole world."

Seeing Ounila's expression, Rhodes realized that there seemed to be no falsehood in it, so he asked a few more questions.

"Lord Arantil of the Howling Mountains has been favored by the ancient god Asha. In Asha's teachings, everything in the world should be maintained in a state of relative balance, the balance between life and death, the balance between light and darkness, the balance between herbivores and carnivores, etc. According to this teaching, the whole world allows the existence of undead spirits, but demons from the lower planes are not allowed to escape to the human world. Therefore, Lord Arantil has not stopped at all during this period of time, killing demons everywhere and clearing these pollution sources that pollute the entire world in his eyes. Mentor Giovanni seems to have recognized this and has been assisting Lord Arantil all these years."

"Of course, I'm not saying that this is a wrong choice."

Giovanni and Arantil have accumulated a lot of prestige in O'Neill's heart, so even if it was a complaint, she still added a sentence at the end, and looked around, as if she was worried that someone else would hear this.

"Is there such a thing?"

"There is chaos everywhere, so the news has not spread, but this is the fact. Hell invasions have appeared in various parts of the continent. You living people have not reacted yet, but we dead people have already started fighting."

"The continent will be divided into nine parts, and the nine powerful races will rule each other in chaos for ten thousand years." In an instant, as if a flash of inspiration came to him, Rhodes suddenly remembered the prophecy that the prophecy machine had once given.

Until today, the prophecy machine seems to have never made a mistake.

"I will try my best to transfer a batch of magic crystals to you. Although it cannot be completed, it should be roughly the same. Ms. Ounira, the tone of my words just now may be a little heavy."

"It's nothing. Does everyone have their own headaches?"

Because of the secret disclosure, the relationship between him and Ounira has been eased to a certain extent.

After Rhodes transferred another batch of magic crystals to make up for the loss, he personally sent Ounira out of the city.

Today's weather is very good. Although it is already afternoon, the weather is refreshing. Teams of soldiers wearing armor and holding heavy crossbows are stationed on the tall and fortified city walls.

Soldiers are not allowed to stop unless they are called during patrols, no matter who they meet. Therefore, except for the low-ranking officers who led the team to salute Rhodes, the other soldiers tried to straighten their chests, but no one stopped.

Rhodes looked for a while, then turned and left.

Underground mines, dark necromancer tower, underground prison.

Because of Rhodes' arrival, the witch Caitlin personally appeared to greet and accompany him. In the underground prison guarded by the mage tower, Rhodes saw the four hell demon generals that he had captured and imprisoned.

Normally, they should not be so weak, and they were destroyed by Rhodes alone with a large number of elite demon soldiers. However, on the one hand, it was attribute restraint, and on the other hand, these demon generals were not good at joining forces and even harmed each other when they encountered danger. These shortcomings became very fatal when facing Rhodes.

In the end, except for the strongest one, all the others failed to escape and were captured, taking over Dilibu's fate.

"How is it? Is the space gate opened with the four of them as the energy source stable enough?"

"Don't worry, Duke. The Mage Tower has now developed a plan to store magic energy. Even if it is attacked again, and the situation like last time happens again, the space gate will not close directly again. It can wait for several days to wait for re-energy. Of course, we have a way to close it immediately."

"Yes." Hearing this, Rhode nodded.

Caitlin has made rapid progress in recent years. With her qualifications, such progress in recent years seems a bit abnormal.

However, during that rescue, after discovering the abnormal relationship between Caitlin and Airen, Rhode gradually understood.

At least in terms of their own practice, the two people are in a relationship of Taoist companions.

Caitlin devoted all her efforts to transform Airen, and Airen relied on transformation as a supplement and his own ability as the main promotion to Legend. After that, he became Caitlin's most perfect research and experimental object, which was a huge improvement for her.

Although the old witch beside him tried her best to cover it up, Rhode was a legendary monk who specialized in the power of light. Even through the heavy cover-ups, he still sensed the breath of demonic transformation on Caitlin.

However, seeing that she was still clear-headed at this moment, Rhode ignored it. If one day she was completely out of control, Rhode would not hesitate to kill her. At most, considering the friendship of so many years of cooperation, he would try to leave her a complete body.

After the last war, the Burning Castle and the Voorhees Castle were both lost. The Lonely Mountain Castle lost the territory of the lower plane and the mine for mining magic crystals.

In response to this, Rhode's response was to lose one Dirib and capture four more demon generals to replace him. Then he sent the base corps down, led by Abby and Bandak, to open up the latest magic crystal mine for Lonely Mountain Castle again.

At the same time, fighting with the hell demon soldiers in the lower plane, a lot of experience will also improve the rank and combat power of the base corps, and impact the fifth-level legendary corps.

"The world is complicated, and only the power in your own hands is real. If you can have a legendary corps, whether facing the threat of the northern elves or the challenge of hell invasion, you can have some confidence."

In the entire Lonely Mountain Castle, except for Rhode himself, Fatis, Airen, and Cress, it is difficult for others, whether it is Raymond, Resarit, Yannick, Remo Mike, Caitlin, and Atiman, to break through the bottleneck by themselves and advance to the fifth-level legendary realm.

Basically, Rhode can only rely on constantly accumulating honor points and then giving them to reduce the difficulty of their promotion and breakthrough.

However, it was difficult to accumulate honor points. One had to either complete large-scale missions such as slaying a giant dragon or destroying a million soldiers to be sure of gaining a certain amount of honor points, or accumulate them bit by bit in the daily administration. At that time, it was up to Rhode himself to decide who to choose and who not to choose. Fortunately, everyone was still relatively young and had some time to accumulate honor points.
