Time passed, and three months flew by.

After resting and regrouping for three months, the Yanhuang Empire began its northward march.

The first target was the Kingdom of Congo.

At that moment, after receiving an urgent message from the border, the King of Congo could no longer sit still.

"Quick, notify Egypt, Songhai, and the other empires. The Yanhuang Empire has begun its northward advance."

After calling over a guard, Mbenel hurriedly gave the order.

Three months earlier, after learning of the Yanhuang Empire's strength, Mbenel had sent envoys to major powers such as Egypt, the Songhai Empire, and Ethiopia to seek an alliance.

Once the rulers of these countries learned how powerful the Yanhuang Empire was, they weren't fools. They knew the Yanhuang Empire was like a massive bomb hanging over them, and no one knew when it might go off in their faces.

Moreover, because of its geographical position, the Kingdom of Congo could be considered a natural barrier. If the Kingdom of Congo fell, the enemy would be able to march straight into their lands and threaten them.

After thinking it through, the rulers of several countries all agreed to the Kingdom of Congo's proposal for an alliance.

As for where to defend, naturally, the battlefield would be on the Kingdom of Congo's territory.

"Father, I heard the Yanhuang Empire has started its attack?!"

Just then, Pedro hurried in from outside the hall, his face alight with excitement.

Seeing the excitement on Pedro's face, Mbenel's mouth twitched. The enemy was coming. What was there to be excited about?

"Father, do you remember the weapon I told you about three months ago—the one that could shoot down their Iron Birds?"

Ignoring Mbenel's twitching mouth, Pedro proudly spoke with excitement.

At this, Mbenel's heart stirred. He hadn't expected the weapon to be finished so quickly.

He hurriedly asked, "You made that weapon?! Have you tested it? How powerful is it? Can it pierce the enemy's defenses?"

"Haha, Father, if you're not convinced, you can go see the Divine Bow's power for yourself."

Seeing how confident his son was, Mbenel nodded and agreed. Until he saw the weapon's power, he simply couldn't put his mind at ease.

Mbenel then followed his son to the place where the weapon had been made. There, he saw a massive weapon standing in the open space before them.

At its core was a huge bow-shaped crossbow frame. The place where an arrow would normally rest had been fitted with a long barrel, concealing an arrow several meters long inside.

Aside from these central components, the rest of the parts were all there to increase the arrow's power.

"Father, this is the Divine Bow that I had the finest craftsmen in the country build. Don't let its size and clumsy appearance fool you—it can be taken apart and transported.

"On top of that, we can add even more of these auxiliary components that increase its power, strengthening the arrow further.

"The arrow itself is made mainly of Tinwood, while its tip is forged from Extraterrestrial Meteorite Iron. As long as it hits the enemy, it's guaranteed to pierce their defenses and bring them down."

Listening to Pedro's explanation, Mbenel nodded, thoroughly satisfied.

He could already picture the coming battle, with the Yanhuang Empire routed and utterly defeated.

As Mbenel saw it, the Yanhuang Empire's greatest strength was those flying Iron Birds. Without them, how could it defeat the allied armies of their countries?

After thinking it through, Mbenel couldn't help but burst into laughter, his worries and gloom swept away in an instant.

Looking at Pedro, who was brimming with confidence, Mbenel was deeply pleased. "Pedro, your father is proud of you. If we win this war, you will deserve the greatest credit..."

Hearing this, Pedro smiled. He knew that no one would be able to challenge his position in the future.

Moreover, after this battle, his fame would spread throughout the neighboring countries, making him a true legend.

He thought this to himself, but still spoke modestly. "I dare not take the credit. Without Father's support, how could I have made such a powerful Divine Bow..."

Seeing how humble and courteous Pedro was, Mbenel was even more pleased.

A few days later.

Nearly a million troops had gathered along the southwestern border of the Kingdom of Congo. From their flags, it was clear that they were the allied forces of Egypt, Songhai, and several other countries.

They gazed into the distance, waiting in silence.

The Yanhuang Empire had made no attempt to hide its route this time, letting the enemy scout it openly.

They didn't know whether the Yanhuang Empire was arrogant or confident, but the situation suited them just fine.

"Let them go mad before they perish." In their eyes, the Yanhuang Empire's arrogance and conceit were a sure sign of its coming downfall.

"Vrrrrm—"

Just then, a rumbling sound came from far away. Several black specks suddenly appeared in the distant sky and quickly grew larger.

"They're here!!"

"Prepare the Divine Bow!!"

At the sight, Pedro's spirits surged. He immediately gave the order to his men.

"Rumble!!"

As the planes drew closer, everyone stared at the enormous Iron Birds in the sky, unable to hide their shock. They already knew the enemy had flying Iron Birds, but they'd never seen one before. Now that they were seeing them with their own eyes, they finally understood just how enormous they were.

Pedro's shock at the Iron Birds in the sky vanished in a flash. He immediately turned to his men.

"Take aim and fire!!"

With the planes' rumbling ringing in his ears, Pedro shouted at the top of his lungs.

At the command, the Divine Archer, with the help of his assistant, quickly swung the Divine Bow into position. The instant he aimed at an Iron Bird in the sky, he fired.

"Whoosh!!"

The moment the arrow was launched, it pierced the air and shot toward its target at tremendous speed.

Hit. It has to hit!!

Pedro stared wide-eyed at the sky, silently pleading.

"Yes! It hit! Hahaha!!"

"Your Highness, the enemy is still flying normally. Your arrow didn't hit it."

Seeing Pedro's excited expression, the guard beside him could only point out the truth.

"What?! No! That's impossible! I clearly saw the arrow hit it!"

The guard's reminder snapped him out of his excitement. He hurriedly looked up.

Sure enough, the Iron Bird he'd thought had been hit was completely unharmed and still flying normally.

The sight sent his emotions plummeting. He couldn't help but feel like he was falling apart.

He had placed all his hopes and expectations in this weapon. Now he was being told that the Divine Bow he'd poured his heart and soul into making had failed right from the start.

How could he accept that?

Just then, a series of violent explosions rang out. Nearly a million troops suffered devastating casualties in an instant, and before long, the area had become a true slaughterhouse.

Seeing the horrific scene, the guard beside Pedro hurriedly said, "Your Highness, the enemy's attacks are too powerful. We need to retreat to the rear. It's too dangerous here."

"No. I believe the Divine Bow I poured my heart and soul into making can bring them down. I want to try again."

As he spoke, Pedro turned toward the Divine Archer nearby, his face twisted in rage, and roared.

"Your Highness, watch out!!"

"What?!"

The next moment, Pedro felt a tearing pain rip through his body. Then his consciousness sank into darkness.

As time passed, the bombardment ended. Those who had survived in the area stared at the carnage on the battlefield, their minds numb with shock.

Just then, the ground shook violently in the distance. Then the Yanhuang Empire's army came charging toward them.

Half a month later, the capital of the Kingdom of Congo fell. King Mbenel and his wife and children committed suicide in the main hall of the Imperial Palace, sacrificing themselves for their country.

Thus, the Kingdom of Congo was destroyed.

News of the Kingdom of Congo's fall and the destruction of nearly a million allied soldiers spread, shaking the world.

Soon afterward, Egypt, Songhai, Egypt, Ethiopia, and the other countries sent envoys to sue for peace. When their pleas were rejected, they had no choice but to fight back with all their might.

However, ever since the battle in Congo and the destruction of the allied forces, the various countries had been gravely weakened.

A year later, the countries were destroyed.

Two years after that, the last remnants of the countries across Africa were wiped out. Thus, the African continent became part of the Yanhuang Empire.

With the fall of the African countries, the European nations were filled with terror and lived in constant fear.

Europe, the Kingdom of Great Britain.

In a city, Sumari walked down the street in extravagant clothes, radiating an air of utter indifference.

Just then, he noticed the anxious look on the faces of the people in the street. Then he heard someone in the crowd say that war was coming.

One minute later.

After learning the whole story, Sumari grew interested.

He was bored right now, so he might as well go have some fun in that Yanhuang Empire and see if there were any beauties there.
