This proud man of the empire, the strongest man, had also been to the Northern Region.
However, due to the escalating war with the Madrid Empire, the combined God of War of Madrid of Demon Marshal Mourinho Chris Ronaldo put immense pressure on the western front of the empire, which is why Messi returned before the war ended.
If the [ Son of God ] hadn't returned beforehand...
The thought of this possibility only amplified the surprise in some people's hearts.
Because of their incredible discovery, after reading the battle report, for the first time deep in their hearts, they began to doubt this invincible God of War of the empire.
After all, the story of that King of Chambord was simply too legendary.
Moreover, all the information suggests that King of Chambord's strength is no less than Messi's, and he is also a deity.
Messi sat quietly in place.
He naturally felt the gazes of his colleagues.
But he scoffed at that look.
From beginning to end, he didn't even glance at the three figures on the central stone bed in the temple—the three who had once followed him in countless battles and called him brother.
His gaze remained fixed on the depths of the temple.
There, a dense red and blue flame, impenetrable to the Space Barrier eye, flickered and shimmered like mercury, filled with indescribable pressure, stress, and a powerful aura.
A detached, cold voice came from behind the flames.
"Master the technique of creating the Chambord magic puppets as soon as possible."
The voice sounded extremely impatient, unwilling to utter a single unnecessary word.
After the words were spoken, the red and blue flames slowly disappeared, revealing a weathered stone statue behind it, and then there was no more movement.
"Yes, Your Majesty Guardiola."
Everyone in the temple, including Messi, rose respectfully, prostrated themselves in worship, and then returned to their seats.
From then on, it was up to [ the Son of God ] Messi to take charge.
It has always been this way.
Ten years ago, Emperor Guardiola stopped personally handling trivial matters. The operation of the empire was almost entirely controlled by the [ Son of God ] Messi. Only when there were major events that could affect the fate of the empire would he speak out and issue decrees in the form of red and blue flames.
After this defeat in the Northern Region, Emperor Guardiola actually showed up. It seems that even this mysterious emperor of the empire believes that Chambord City and the King of Chambord can threaten the fate of the empire.
Your Highness.
Everyone was looking at Messi.
"Prepare for war." Messi's expression was calm and indifferent.
However, his words were filled with an unprecedented, resolute, and iron-willed spirit, causing everyone present to be startled and immediately realize that an extremely important life-or-death battle had truly begun.
Just then, increasingly urgent announcements rang out from outside the main hall.
A guard dressed in red and blue royal armor strode in, held a document high above his head, and knelt in the center of the temple.
Messi raised his hand, and the document flew into his hand.
They unfolded it and looked at it once; his expression was indifferent, and no one could discern anything from his face.
"Please circulate this among everyone."
Messi opened his palm, and the document automatically flew to the hands of Tito, the Imperial Chancellor at the very top.
Tito is undoubtedly the most powerful civil servant in Barcelona. Born into a century-old noble family, he wields immense influence and his words carry great weight. He appears to be in his forties, not handsome, with short, light-yellow hair, and rarely shows his emotions.
After taking the document, the iron-fisted prime minister read it from beginning to end, raised an eyebrow, and handed it to his colleague.
Before long, everyone in the temple had finished reading the information contained on the scroll.
The Zenit people destroyed the Eindhoven Empire!
King of Chambord Alexander is officially crowned Emperor of the Zenit Empire!
Zenit declares war on Barcelona!
The Zenit army is poised to wage war, and the Ajax Empire, the Lyon Empire, and the Alania Empire have sworn allegiance to Zenit!
Zenit...
Although the document was small, it clearly described the earth-shattering events taking place in the distant Northern Region.
A storm raged in the heart of every Barcelona nobleman.
Is King of Chambord Alexander, the war maniac, truly destined to unify the Northern Region and become the undisputed " Human Emperor of the Northern Region," as his title suggests?
If the Northern Region was previously the weakest of the five regions of the Azeroth Continent due to the lack of a level nine empire, then the sudden emergence of King of Chambord is changing all that.
If the Northern Region Continent is truly unified because of King of Chambord, then a new, colossal power will be officially created.
What impact will a unified Northern Region have on this currently chaotic continent?
It's hard to say.
But for the Barcelona Empire, it had only one meaning—
A terrifying enemy with immense potential has emerged.
This is clearly a situation that no one in Barcelona wants to see.
The Madrid Empire alone has been entangled with Barcelona for centuries, consuming most of the empire's resources and preventing Barcelona from taking steps toward unifying the entire continent. If an even more formidable enemy were to emerge, the Madrid Empire's ambition to dominate Azeroth Continent would become increasingly distant.
But how can we contain the Zenit people?
How can we restrain that insane [ Human Emperor of the Northern Region ]?
None of the Barcelona present could find the answer.
The nobles were saddened to discover that their powerful beliefs, deeply ingrained in their bodies and souls, were forced to reveal their true colors in the face of a truly formidable opponent, leaving them somewhat embarrassed.
Their gazes once again focused on [ the Son of God ] Messi.
The empire's dependence on this man had unknowingly seeped into its very bones; it seemed that only his words could solve all its problems.
Messi took a deep breath and smiled.
What we need most right now is time!
Zenit, Saint Petersburg.
The coronation of the new emperor Alexander was completed three days ago.
Many Zenit were still immersed in the excitement and happiness of the empire's sudden strength, because everyone understood that a powerful royal family, a strong emperor, and a powerful army meant that they had someone to rely on in the chaos of war.
Ten days ago.
In less than a day, the Chambord Expeditionary Army crushed the internally divided Eindhoven Empire, wiped out the Eindhoven royal family and nobles, completely destroyed this former empire's archenemy, and incorporated its vast territory into the empire's borders.
