Proof of the Sun King

The empire has failed.

On the fifth day after the battle of Hufffungen, Vlad von Carstein sat in the city of Essien, south of Ostermark, and the Lord of Sylvania looked very angry. The angry look is as uncontrollable as a beast, and no one dares to disturb the anger of the blood ancestor.

The Lord of Death's eyes were red, and he punched the table, smashing the rotten wooden table to pieces.

The Empire could have won this battle!

He had already seen the dawn of victory! At that time, Chron was dead, the gas tank was half-crippled by him, and nearly half of his body was crystallized. Marius and Ivan's half-griffon knights were regrouping, and Arkhan was pulling up a An extremely large number of legions, including fifteen Tomb Guard Legions and nine Black Knight Legions plus six Wraith Knight Legions - as we all know, this battlefield is an excellent corpse pit for the undead, and a steady stream of undead troops can Summoned directly on the battlefield and into battle.

Vlad had already thought about how to temporarily conclude an armistice agreement with the emperor of the empire after the victory of the war. He had already written the speech in Guric, and it took him several days to consider and agree with him. Arkhan also served as his editor for three times and three proofreads. In order to be immersive, Vlad was still rehearsing the cemetery at Ostermark's cemetery at night when no one was there. After many times, a group of Kastain blood descendants were called in to applaud and boost their confidence.

It's all ruined! Betrayal by Wallachie Harken! After entering the Chaos Wasteland, the head of the blood dragon was watched by the evil gods. Khorne was willing to give him blood, battle, glory and never-ending challenges. This brain-dead who only had battle in his mind agreed without thinking for too long. .

It was deadly, the blood dragon knights of Valazzi not only destroyed the hope of victory in this war, but also killed the emperor of the empire - Vlad saw the great griffin descend from the sky and land on a large group of Chaos warriors , he did not believe that the emperor would survive.

Vlad naturally won't let Wallazzi go. Maybe the original Vlad will fight with Wallachy, but now as the Death Lord, he completely suppresses Wallachy in terms of strength. In a battle, Vlad seized the opportunity to secretly seize the control of the bone dragon under the seat of Valazzi, and then swung the blood-drinking sword to cut off Valazzi's head.

Now, the head of the Blood Dragon Grand Master Valazzi Harken was placed on the table. His blood-red eyes, dead expression and wounded head spoke of Vlad's strength.

If the Battle of Huffwinden can end like this, at least the empire and the undead coalition will not lose too much. Vlad plans to let the undead army continue to attack, repel the Chaos army and cover the retreat of the imperial army. If the empire is 90,000 There are at least 30,000 to 40,000 people left, and there may still be a battle to retreat to Tarabeheim.

However, when his wife, Isabella von Carstein, appeared on the battlefield, Vlad couldn't keep his sanity. Knowing why a horde of Nurgle demons followed her, and even more clearly why she was here, but when Isabella smiled warmly at him and stretched out her hands to ask Vlad for a hug, Vlad still fell. , No matter how long it has passed, no matter how much she has experienced, Isabella is an existence that Vlad cannot refuse.

Afterwards, a poisonous dagger plunged into Vlad's chest, and the Death Lord was killed on the spot by his wife—or a phantom named Isabella.

But Vlad didn't get anything for nothing. At the moment before he died, he saw the pain and confusion in Isabella's eyes. He was 100% sure that this was his wife, and Isabella's soul and body were accepted. Dirty was captured, twisted, and turned into something else, but the bond between them would not disappear, she was just brainwashed and bewitched. After being killed by his wife once, Vlad knew that he had a way to save her. She came out, it just took some time and preparation.

I won't keep you waiting too long, my wife.

Of course, the price of Vlad trying to understand whether Isabella was his wife was huge. The death prince was killed on the spot. It took him three full days to resurrect. After seeing Vlad fall, Arkhan did not follow Vlad's orders to fight, the Lich King chose to retreat, and the undead army retreated, still shouting "sorry" and "played well", the deep sea king Luther Harken, the blood dragon old Another direct disciple of Zu was forcibly dragged away by Gul by the neck.

Vlad can understand the thinking of the Lich King Arkhan. Arkhan is not willing to go all out. Nagash's loyal servant has to keep his life and usefulness until the time to resurrect and is currently trapped in the Black Pyramid. The necromancer inside.

Ah! How long will it take for Nagash to be resurrected next time? 500 years? 1000 years? 1500 years?

Vlad couldn't help but snorted coldly. I think Nagash is out of the game. The first two resurrections of the undead Lord can be said to be physical death, but the soul is not damaged, but this time is different. Nagash is in the process of resurrection. A large part of his power was taken away by Manfred, and then he was laughed at by himself, and he had achieved the ability to compete with Nagash.

The era of Nagash is over.

Even if the Necromancer can really be resurrected again, he has lost absolute control over Vlad.

With a snort, Vlad immediately put away his sneer, and Death Monarch forced his attention to the war in front of him.

The loss had been done, the Imperial army had been routed, the minions of the Destruction Force had become impregnable, and Vlad himself had been forced to evacuate, having suffered too much humiliation for more than half his life.

"God-killing chaos! You bastard!" He cursed at Valazzi's head, not knowing who he was scolding.

Huff Winden was defeated, and the loss of the empire was devastating. The 90,000 imperial people who participated in the war did not know if 10,000 people escaped. He only noticed Rick Guard Heilberg and the emperor's flag officer Schwartz. Hammer fled west with the remnants of the Rick Guards, while the Charlemagne champions Voten and Luther Huss gathered some remnants and fled to the South of Steele Land.

In this battle, almost two-thirds of the empire's main force was wiped out.

Elector Marius and Duke Ivan retreated towards Osterland but were overtaken by Chaos Knights within the shadow forest. No one knew how they ended. Arkhan told Vlad that as Huff grew stronger After the defeat, the entire northern defense line of the empire collapsed, and the leaderless imperial army was completely slaughtered.

The most terrible thing is that the logistics headquarters of the Empire in the castle of von Zhukov was also captured by Vlasov, the **** of Khorne, and the elector Vamir von Zhukov burned all the symbols of the glory of the empire before he died. The military standard avoids falling into the hands of Chaos, where warehouses carrying vast quantities of logistical supplies and equipment for the Empire's hopes have been looted.

If Chron was not dead, and the Chaos Army was busy looting Oster and Ostermark and had no time to take care of him, perhaps Tarabheim would have fallen immediately.

There were footsteps outside, and the Lich King Arkhan walked in. He seemed to be unafraid of Vlad's anger, and said in a slightly mocking tone: "My esteemed Majesty of Death, what will happen next? What to do, we are all waiting for your instructions."

"Are you testing this seat?" Vlad looked at Arkhan. The Lich King was still polite. He manipulated the Nicohara court etiquette that Vlad was most familiar with. There was a faint smile on Han's rotten face, but Arkhan concealed his expression well enough to ensure that Vlad couldn't make accusations.

"I am just waiting for your order, and now, I am your servant," Arkhan continued.

"If you really obey my orders, you should do what I say!" Vlad said arrogantly, and he immediately accused Arkhan of cowardice: "Instead of retreating when I temporarily leave."

"I'm your servant, but a servant can't be without a master." Arkhan just continued: "Without the master, the existence of a servant has no meaning."

Vlad understood, Arkhan's meaning was very simple, the Lich King's loyalty is a limited loyalty, and this loyalty must be valid when Nagash cannot sleep and Vlad is alive and able to issue orders.

Maybe for others, loyalty is not absolute is absolute disloyalty, but Vlad doesn't care, the army of death does not believe that he will die again, he is now a symbol of death, and also found the von Carstein ring, who is now Can you kill him? Probably only the Sun King in Brittany has this kind of strength. Vlad is so proud, he doesn't care.

Seeing that Vlad didn't answer, Arkhan repeated it mechanically: "What should we do next? Please show us, His Majesty the Death Lord."

"No one understands the defense of the Empire better than I do." Vlad said arrogantly, the Death Lord leaned back in the chair, his delicate crimson cursed armor with no flaws exudes a strong breath of death, thick The mercerized mink and white fox velvet capes were draped over the shoulders of the Lord of Sylvania, and Vlad ran his fingers through his long pale hair, making sure that none of them were split or in the wrong place. He said slowly: "Tarabeheim can't be held back. In order to fight the Battle of Hufffenggen, the Empire has already deployed more than half of the Tarabheim army. I understand the thinking of the Middenheim people, they will only retreat. ."

"So?" Arkhan leaned on Nagash's spare staff, and the Lich King didn't seem to think about it.

"So, if you want to really stop Chaos, only in Brunswick." Vlad thought of Isabella again, he had told his wife that he would be crowned eternal in Brunswick, the city of Charlemagne The great emperor, and she is the eternity, but everything drifted away with the wind. That was the most glorious peak of his life, and it was also the moment when he took a sharp turn.

The Lich King was silent for two minutes, and Arkhan suddenly giggled: "You really love the people of the Empire."

"I just love a throne that should belong to me, a country that should belong to me." Vlad disagreed: "I want to establish my rule, or at least maintain my status as the lord of Sylvania, and Chaos is not going to respect me, that's why I have to rebel and unite."

"Then will the Empire respect it?" Arkhan's words were very sharp.

"Yes." Vlad stood up: "I know mortals, and I also know the empire. After the cataclysm, the old world will usher in a new round of shuffling. After the destruction frenzy, the living will meet Coexist peacefully with the dead for a period of time, and even we can cooperate, I can wake up the endless dead to help them recover their homes, and there will be things and two emperors together."

"Emperor and Sylvania?" Arkhan asked directly.

"Let's start by becoming a recognized elector." Vlad smiled: "At this time, the noble von Carstein bloodline offered a helping hand to the empire that lost more than two-thirds of its main force and elites. What reason does the Empire have to refuse?"

"They don't have the right to refuse. You are so clever at this time." Arkhan nodded, the empire was already in danger, even if he knew that cooperating with the undead would drink poison to quench thirst and have endless troubles, he could only grab this life-saving straw at this time, just like The tacit understanding between the two sides on the Golden Fortress for more than a year is the same as Karl Franz's request for help at a critical moment.

"Send your people to gather some more imperial refugees, take them to Sylvania to resettle and select my living legion, and let Luther Haken prepare for defense along the line of Essien and Waldenhof castles, chaos. We won't ignore our Sylvania's fighting strength." Vlad walked outside: "Also, if you can, go to support the Torrent Pass and the Butcher's Fort, the dwarves can't miss this battle of world destiny. "

"You really love the people of the Empire," Arkhan repeated.

Vlad didn't answer, he walked out carelessly.

The Lich King shook his head and sighed, but he admired Vlad's lofty ambitions. It was no wonder that the blood descendants of Von Carstein had such charm and ambition.

Vlad loves the people of the Empire?

Of course, it is love, what kind of love method?

Just like a farmer loves the wheat in his field.

Just like a herdsman loves his cattle and sheep.

Just like the farmer loves the big fat pig in the pigpen.

Vlad's love is distorted. In his eyes, the lower class is only responsible for providing blood as food and occasionally selecting some elites to become his blood descendants~www.wuxiaspot.com~ On the contrary, he is willing to provide Nice living environment and shelter by force.

But Arkhan was deeply aware that although Vlad's love was distorted, based on all his experience in the past 4,000 years, how many imperial emperors could truly love the commoners like Vlad?

Probably no more than five.

What about the Knights of Brittany?

Probably no more than three.

...... I am the dividing line that Vlad loves you ......

The midwinter of 2524 in the imperial calendar came as scheduled, and it came earlier than ever. When Ryan stood in the Curona Palace and looked at the frozen ocean, the expression on his face was unprecedentedly serious.

In December, the temperature reached minus 20 degrees, which is too abnormal. Brittany has never been so cold.

It was snowing heavily outside the window, and the fireplace was burning indoors. When Ryan looked at the documents for the formation of the new army, there was the sound of high heels kicking and kicking outside.

Aurora, the director of MI7, was wearing a deep black mink fur coat covered with extremely luxurious jewels, full of pearls, and pushed the sanctuary witch with her curly hair straight through the door and rushed in: "Your Majesty , there is good news!"

"Good news?" Ryan raised his head from the stack of papers.

"Yeah, good news, MI7 got the news from the Empire's branch, the Empire defeated the Chaos army in Huff Winden, wiped out more than 150,000 enemies, and killed Chaos Eternal God's Choice Deputy Commander Kerong-Conqueror, which was severely damaged. The main force of Chaos, the Chaos Army has suffered heavy losses, and it is probably unable to continue south this winter!" Aurora happily told Ryan the news.

"Really?" Ryan's face glowed, and the Sun King took the news and couldn't help but nodded.

"Good fight, Brother Carl, I'm a waste~."

"This way, it can last for at least a few months."
