Chapter 433: The Enemy Arrives at Huiyao City

The southern part of Huiyao City is an important passage connecting the human kingdom.

Unlike the narrow paths in the northern suburbs of the city, which are embedded in large tracts of farmland, the roads in the south are built wide and flat.

On weekdays, this is to facilitate the travel of caravan carriages between Huiyao City and other human cities.

But today, on this wide road, there were dense and rapid sounds of horse hooves.

After receiving the news, Percy dressed neatly and rushed to the city gate with the guards of the city lord's mansion.

A city gate guard who was on good terms with Percy saw the popular celebrity some time ago appear here, so he hurriedly walked up and gave Percy a chest-beating salute.

"Captain Percy, it's the Kingdom Knights."

He stood aside cautiously. Although after Percy was promoted to captain, this partner who used to drink and brag together did not put on airs in front of these old friends;

But as a powerless soldier, he decisively chose to remain humble.

"The Kingdom Knights... What are these lackeys of the royal family doing visiting the border at this time?"

Outside the city wall, there were at least a thousand knights galloping towards Huiyao City.

Further away, the dense infantry troops stretched to the point of no return.

They wore standard full-body armor, but the weapons on their waists were all kinds of strange.

Even without looking at the unified kingdom emblem on the helmet, Percy could tell that this was the powerful army controlled by the royal capital.

Although he does not have the long-term experience in handling government affairs like his half-brother Shuman, Percy's political sense is still up to standard.

If it was a normal military operation, then before the main force arrived, there would be at least one or two messengers or scouts to deliver the message in advance to avoid delays in the march.

But before that, apart from the princess with an exaggerated figure, no scouts from the royal capital entered Huiyao City.

He was very sure that these powerful and arrogant guys definitely had some ulterior motives.

"Fons, take your men to stabilize them first. If they need food and water, have the brothers entertain these knights, but don't let them enter the city.

I will go to find Master Xiuman now."

At this time in the City Lord's Mansion, Xiuman had already learned about the army outside the city from his obedient maid Isa.

"Fifty thousand? You mean at least fifty thousand?"

The young city lord's hands were shaking slightly as he held the tea.

The red-eyed maid stepped forward and helped Xiuman take down the teacup that was about to be spilled.

“Yes, Lord Xiuman, at least more than 50,000.

Among them, there are more than 10,000 heavy cavalrymen, both men and horses fully armored.”

Although the Faceless Men in Shuman's hands had been completely wiped out in the dispute in Nield, Isa still had an intelligence force in her hands.

This also prevented Shuman from becoming a blind man.

But at this moment, he would rather be a blind and mediocre city lord.

“Have you discovered the general’s identity?

The Kingdom Knights should have less than 200,000 men. Someone who can command an army of 50,000 men cannot be an unknown person."

“No, the other side’s defense is very tight.

But our agents in the South have said that there are several carriages in the army bearing the royal emblem."

Hearing this, Xiuman couldn't help but think of Her Royal Highness the Princess who had suffocated him in this study not long ago.

The princess of astonishing size seemed to be looking for trouble with Ivan, and she also used a spell that could spy on her memory.

"Damn it, this better have nothing to do with you, Alvin..."

Xiuman stood up, quickly put on a coat, and strode out the door.

“Isa, go find the eldest daughter of the Toomba family and tell her the news.

She should know that compared to Wangdu, we are the best partners.

And Nordman... Never mind, that old man with a white beard can't be trusted at all...

Send someone to Nield, I remember River is still there."

……

Ivan wasn't the only one who saw Leila's strange transformation.

Iris was standing directly opposite this human goddess.

Although she was not very willing to teach Ivan, her own daughter was also there. In order to prevent this "prisoner" from suddenly attacking and hurting people, Iris stayed by his side all the time - especially after Ivan used his divine power to torment the other party.

As if sensing Iris's wary gaze, Leila raised her head helplessly.

Her forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and her whole body looked exhausted, with a pale and weak face.

"It seems that you and Corellon are right to be concerned, Elise."

The human goddess slowly sat down on the ground, with bitterness on her lips.

“The human kingdom’s army has arrived in the north, numbering 50,000.

The leader is a member of the royal family - one of the human gods who came to earth."

Iris frowned and said somewhat unhappily:

"The army? It seems that they are willing to sacrifice so much to allow a princess like you to return home..."

“Don’t be stupid, Elise, their target is not me at all.

Even this human pervert could guess it."

Leila raised her arm and tried to wipe the sweat from her forehead, but for some reason the movement seemed extremely difficult.

"Don't you realize? They've drained all my strength.

I was abandoned..."

Alvin was listening in confusion, he knew nothing about these secrets involving the gods.

But obviously, Iris, who has been wandering in the main plane for 20,000 years, still knows many secrets of the human royal family - the group of human gods.

"Your human kingdom—what is it called now?"

Kicked Leila on the ground lightly with her toes and asked uncertainly.

"The Third Human Holy Empire, believe me, Iris, with your current strength, you can never be their opponent."

As Leila and Iris talked, Alvin slowly figured out what was going on.

The invasion of the human kingdom was one of the possibilities that Alvin had anticipated.

But what he didn't expect was that behind the kingdom would be a group of gods who came from the astral plane to the main plane, just like the current elven pantheon.

According to Leila, the entire royal family of mankind, from the king to his descendants, are all human gods.

In order to avoid suspicion from ordinary people, they would control their bodies every once in a while, change their appearance, or take turns playing the role of human king.

This way, the human royal family wouldn't seem to have such an abnormal lifespan.

Except for the princess played by the deceitful goddess Leila, and a few weak gods from the chaos camp, most of the human gods are not actually law-abiding and peace-loving.

Of course, Leila isn't really one of them, but she's just too lazy to get involved in things like territorial expansion.
