Seeing the sudden display of such formidable strength by the Gnome and Dwarf Alliance Expedition, the members of the Church secretly regretted not having been more friendly and proactive in winning over such an army, only to have it lured away by the Northern Region Empire.
This is definitely not a good sign.
If this trend continues, I fear that in the future even the entire Elf Empire and the Dwarf Alliance will gradually tilt towards the Northern Region Empire.
The people of the Northern Region really got lucky and profited from the situation.
Rosario felt as if his old face had been slapped so hard that it was swollen, and an uncontrollable surge of resentment welled up in his heart.
Only Rosario knew that he had feigned enthusiasm to try and win over the dwarves like Aimar to his side, and then try to acquire Gnome Clan firearms technology. Unexpectedly, these dwarves had a terrifying intuition and sensed a hint of danger, so they decisively defected to the Northern Region Empire!
That was a real miscalculation.
"Now that the Dwarf and Gnome Alliance and the Elf Empire's armies have arrived, let's set off immediately. Our compatriots in the Southern Region are constantly being harassed by goblins. The sooner we leave, the more likely we are to save them."
Rosario spoke with righteous indignation.
After saying this, he led his many powerful warriors back to their respective camps without hesitation to regroup and set off again.
The truth is that he was filled with resentment all day but couldn't vent it, and just wanted to leave as soon as possible.
"Let's go too!" Shaarawy shouted.
The Valkyrie Elena is the commander of the Northern Region Army.
However, this princess was cold by nature and never wanted to talk to strangers except for Sun Fei and a few close friends. Therefore, the military operations of the Northern Region Empire were mostly led by the two famous generals, Shaarawy and Cassano.
The Valkyrie merely sits in the army, responsible for dealing with the most skilled enemies.
Özil from the Real Madrid Empire, Gerrard from the Liverpool Empire, Kompany from the Manchester City Empire, and Van Persie from the Arsenal Empire, among others, had already decided to follow the Northern Region Empire's army. Naturally, they had no objections at this moment. Upon hearing Shaarawy's decision, they immediately ordered their respective troops to prepare for departure.
Meanwhile, the Elf Clan priestess of the Moon Temple, Susanna, and the shy female dwarf also stepped forward, each ordering their armies to obey the commands of Shaarawy and his men.
In less than an hour, the Paris Island became deserted.
Nearly 800,000 troops set off from here, marching in a mighty procession towards the Southern Region.
A war concerning the life and death of the Human Clan in the Southern Region is about to begin.
The Bay of Naples, at the border between the Central Region Continent and the Northern Region Continent.
Since the day the remaining troops of the two great empires withdrew into the Northern Region, Human Emperor of the Northern Region's [ Motley Army ] and the Holy Church's [ Judgment Divine Knights ] fought an earth-shattering battle here, this scenic bay has become a vast battlefield.
The Motley Army set up camp here.
The Judgment Divine Knights also changed their previous assignment to guard the Holy Mountain, the headquarters of the Holy Church, and have been stationed here for a long time.
The reputation of the Northern Region [ Golden Lion and the Church's veteran ace powerhouse [ Silver Hair and Gray Eyes ] Atkinson, who rose to prominence because of this battle, stood facing each other across the border of the two regions, one in the south and one in the north.
Both the Northern Region Empire and the Holy Church have amassed large armies on the border between the two regions.
This place has not been peaceful for some time. The two sides have long established an irreconcilable hostile relationship. Therefore, although no large-scale war has broken out, small skirmishes and battles have been continuous.
As many people guessed, before fully preparing for a full-scale war, both the Northern Region Empire and the Holy Church need to first digest their own territories and people within their respective domains, and will not devote too much attention to them.
The Bay of Naples strategy devised by Sun Fei and the Northern Region Empire's think tank focused primarily on troop training.
Along the long border, small-scale conflicts constantly erupt. Some are caused by the Church, but most are initiated by the Northern Region Empire. With the Ultra-Long-Distance Teleport Magic Array, the armies of the ten military regions of the Northern Region can be continuously rotated to the border to conduct war rehearsals.
Everyone understands that if the Northern Region Empire and the Holy Church really go to war, the Bay of Naples will be an unavoidable strategic location and the first battlefield. The success or failure on this land will likely determine the final outcome of the war to a large extent.
Both sides are trying their best to adapt to their opponent and to this battlefield.
The focus of attention across the entire continent is on the war between the Human Clan and goblins in the Southern Region Continent, but no one can guarantee that an event in the Southern Region will not trigger a chain reaction, causing Naples to suddenly become the epicenter of the war.
The situation on the mainland is all affected by Sun Fei and his Northern Region Empire.
During this period, Sun Fei, who rarely appeared in public, stayed in the God King Hall of [ Sky City ], constantly seizing the time to refine the Divine Domain Great World with the Power of Faith and improve his strength.
The birth of the Northern Region Empire brought Sun Fei's prestige to its peak in the Northern Region.
This also allows him to gather more Power of Faith to strengthen his divine Divinity, enhance his integration with the Divine Domain Great World, and increase his strength at the fastest speed.
No matter how powerful the Northern Region Empire's military was, in reality, what determined the fate of the entire empire was still Sun Fei's personal safety—in fact, for any imperial power, the battle record of the strongest figure determined the fate of the nation.
Therefore, as long as Sun Fei can maintain his victories against the top experts of the Holy Church, the Northern Region Empire will unite as one. However, once Sun Fei is suppressed by the Church's experts, the Northern Region Empire will face difficulties.
Sun Fei and his advisors recognized this, which is why the Valkyrie Elena was tasked with leading the war in the Southern Region, while Sun Fei himself stayed in the Northern Region to focus on improving his own strength.
Over the past ten days, Sun Fei has made further progress, strengthening his connection with the Divine Domain Great World. The degree of integration has reached 21%.
This means that Sun Fei's strength has broken through the True God Realm and advanced to the God King Realm.
At the same time, in addition to Lampard the Golden Lion, the other Gold Saint of Chambord City also entered a state of seclusion. In the Holy Palace of Sky City, Sun Fei allocated a large amount of divine medicine and other resources to set up various enhancement arrays to fully improve their personal combat power.
With the defection of Shaarawy and Cassano, the expansion of Sun Fei's territory, and the birth of the Northern Region Empire, the strength of Saint like Torres has increased, falling far short of the Empire's needs.
In the past, they were the representatives of the strongest warriors in Chambord City.
But now, they are no longer the strongest.
This is absolutely not the role and status that Gold Saint should have.
Therefore, they must catch up as soon as possible. Only by advancing to the Great Sun-Rank Venerable realm in the shortest time and raising their strength to the upper-middle level of the Great Sun Class can they barely adapt to the current level of the Northern Region Empire.
To this end, Sun Fei also formulated a series of plans.
I believe that once Torres and the others emerge from seclusion, their strength will have undergone an incredible improvement.
