Belon Castle
Ferenc Viscount Territory, Belon Castle.
A fortification of walls, towers, and strong gates of various sizes stands on a hilltop overlooking the rushing river.
The outer moat and drawbridge block the access to the castle and are strictly guarded by the viscount's soldiers. The huge gate protects the entrance to the lord's property.
For thousands of years, Northern Nobles people have been fighting for land, food, livestock, and population. The intensive wars have led the nobles to build more and larger castles to guard their territories.
Belon Castle was passed down from generation to generation by the Lott Family, and the current owner is Viscount Horace Lott.
"What?"
"Are you saying that even Vichy City fell? Or in less than two days?"
"Are you sure the information is correct?"
"Earl Hokot is dead. He died in his mansion."
Listening to the knight's report, Viscount Horace was stunned and fell into a long silence.
The noble lord who also belongs to Otto Duchy, he knows very well how strong and tall Vichy City's city wall is - at least Belon Castle is nothing in front of Vichy City, at most it is a pile of stones.
In front of the Embers of the Burned Kingdom's army, even such a strong city fell instantly. How long can a fortress like his last? After a long silence, Viscount Horace said, "Let's not make any noise."
"It's best not to be discovered by those guys."
"Yes, sir."
Facing the legendary invincible enemy, Viscount Horace could only bury his head in the ground like an ostrich, praying not to be noticed by the opponent.
After all, the North has quite a few castles like this. Even Embers of the Burned Kingdom wouldn't have the energy to clean them one by one.
"It is said that a mage who is proficient in teleportation and is willing to lend a helping hand to the nobles recently appeared in the North. Perhaps we can use his power to leave Anzeta."
Viscount Horace thought so.
But he didn't know that there was a group of tireless and desperate Starfallers inside the Embers of the Burned Kingdom.
He didn't even know that his so-called "escape route" was a road full of traps that had long been blocked.
"Roar——"
Suddenly, there was a roar in the sky.
Viscount Horace quickly looked up at the sky through the windows of the castle, but was shocked to find several Wyvern passing through the sky and circling several times over the castle.
And there seemed to be humanoid figures on the backs of those Wyvern.
"It's Red Scale Conqueror."
Mitra Knight looked gloomy and spoke solemnly.
Viscount Horace felt the terrifying power in the roar and asked with a trembling tone:
"Then, what on earth is that?"
Mitra Knight half-knelt on the ground and chanted in a low voice. "When the roar of the dragon comes from the distance, the Red Scale Conquerors will ride the huge and brutal Dragon Vein Creature and attack from the sky."
He paused before continuing.
"Bringing endless fire and complete death to the enemy."
This passage has been circulating in the North for many years. It is said that it was first said by an adventurer who narrowly escaped from the Embers of the Burned Kingdom.
Mitra Knight's expression became more solemn. "Lord Viscount, that is Embers of the Burned Kingdom's most terrifying scout, and we are probably being targeted by them."
"O Gods"
Viscount Horace looked at the small black dot in the sky and couldn't help but mutter to himself.
"Wuhu, take off!"
At this moment, Red Scale Conqueror, whom Mitra Knight calls the "most terrifying scouts" and "knights who bring death", are cheering loudly in the sky, without any trace of the legendary natural disaster demeanor.
Even Wyvern was infected by the warm atmosphere and let out piercing howls, followed by the players who couldn't bear the disturbance and covered their mouths with blood.
"I finally found a decent castle. I should be able to make a fortune."
"Yeah, it's really rare."
"Damn, that old shabby manor of Baron had nothing but a warehouse full of grain, and its money bag was cleaner than my pocket."
"We are also asked to open warehouses to distribute the grain to the serfs. It is too troublesome to sell it."
Steamed Bun had a greedy face, wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and said viciously, "I'm going to robbing you fiercely this time to avenge my previous shame!"
"I heard that Lang Chu robbed a Earl house and took away things worth a total of one hundred thousand Gold Coin. Seeing him making money is even more uncomfortable than me not making any money!"
Singo said calmly, "Don't raise your expectations too high. He was lucky that time. When he caught up with Earl to transfer his property, he just got it all."
"It is said that it was originally Magic Coin's deal, but Lang Li Bai Tiao intercepted it. Charlotte was so angry that he wanted to challenge him."
The corner of Steamed Bun's mouth twitched slightly. "With Charlotte's big black face, he can get hit by a car when he goes out to buy groceries. This is normal."
"But that castle looks quite strong. Can we take it down with just a few of us?"
Singo said, "We have a lot of foreign aid."
"Ouch~~"
He just clamped his legs slightly, and the Wyvern under him roared, hovered in mid-air and landed on the ground.
Steamed Bun also patted Noodles's neck, and then landed on the ground behind the hill.
"There are so many people."
The place has become noisy, with hundreds of players gathered.
"When will the fight start?"
"Damn it, why is it Holy Light Bro again!"
The players' costumes are incompatible with the surrounding environment, and their styles are all kinds of strange.
Some were wearing armor, some were wearing pink skirts, and some were even naked, letting the holy light spread on his strong body.
There are also various siege equipment from unknown eras, ranging from primitive trebuchets to magic cannons, which are strangely mixed together.
"Yo, you're here!"
Born Battle Maniac raised the ax and waved it, and wiped his bald head that was coated with pulp with his other hand.
Xia Ye Qiuyu also waved his hand with a smile, creating a brilliant fire, signaling to them.
Steamed Bun skillfully rolled off Wyvern's back and asked in a low voice, "Damn, there are so many people here. There are more wolves and less meat. How much money can we get now?"
Born Battle Maniac said helplessly, "I didn't call them, they are also eyeing the viscount's castle."
Singo said, "The current situation in the Northern Kingdom is like this. There are players attacking the city everywhere. If you are a little slow, you won't be able to grab anything."
Xia Ye Qiuyu nodded and agreed, "I heard that Royal Authority's group has captured thirteen cities. With this efficiency - it is estimated that the North will be robbed in less than two months."
Steamed Bun sighed, "Well, let's have some soup first."
"I want to rob Zouya!"
"Hand over all Gold Coin!"
"To wipe Lord Keosius's tail!"
A Wyvern carrying only knights soared into the sky again. The players pushed the strange siege equipment and shouted messy slogans, rushing towards the Belon Castle in the distance.
