No one expected the situation to change so quickly. While everyone was still paying attention to Li Huailin's order to deal with the Goddess of Harvest, the situation in the Northern Continent suddenly changed. First, the Elves suddenly launched an all-out attack, directly entering the Orc's border. Then, the Dragons suddenly launched an attack against the Orcs.
This new situation was unexpected. Although the Elves had been in a state of war with the Beastmen, they actually launched a massacre this time. According to the latest news, the Beastmen's border city, Dilatwa City, was actually massacred by the Elves. This was something that the Elves had never done before. As for the Dragon race, no one expected it to exist. The Dragon race had always existed, but no one had ever heard of the Dragon race having a political power. It was just too strange.
The news that the Dragons had submitted a declaration of war to the Orcs had also spread, but no one believed that such a thing actually happened. Since when did the Dragons know how to build a country? Anyone who heard about this would doubt it for a period of time, and only after confirming it again and again would they slowly believe it.
In any case, what happened was the truth, and it was quickly confirmed. Such a big thing could not be hidden at all. Of course, more than a dozen Orc cities of various sizes were attacked by the Dragons. Because there was no one to care about them, the dragons only needed to fly around in the sky to cause massive destruction. The Orcs didn't have any proper armies to defend them, nor did they have any preparations. As such, they suffered heavy losses and were in dire straits.
However, the problem was … where could he go to report the emergency? That's right, the Orcs did not know who to ask for help. The only thing they could do now was to call back their frontline troops and start to prepare for defense in the main cities. They could not afford to lose the main cities. As for other places, there was nothing they could do.
The main city of the Orcs, Durostan, was relatively well-defended. There were ballistae and magic cannons, so even if the Dragons came, they might not be able to take advantage of the situation. Of course, the Dragons were not stupid. They would not go to such a troublesome place. There were many other cities, and they could just attack them. What the Beastmen didn't know was that the Dragons weren't the only ones mobilized. The Half-Dragon army of 30,000 had also begun advancing towards the Beastmen. Of course, they weren't as fast as the Dragons.
Of course, even if the Half-Dragon army wasn't enough, the Beastmen couldn't stand the Wyrms and Elves. The Beastmen were really unlucky. Dilba almost fainted when he heard about the current situation. At this time, he was still waiting for Li Huailin's Duke Mansion to mediate. He didn't expect that before Li Huailin could come, he would receive such news.
"Great Leader, let's return immediately." The one who spoke was the Fox Clan Patriarch Penello, who was with Dilbao. Of course, when he heard the news here, his first reaction was to immediately return to deal with the current situation.
"No, wait, we can't go back now." Dilba 'o's first reaction was also this, but after thinking for a while, he immediately said, "The situation has already reached this point. Even if we go back now, we will only be waiting for death."
"Great Leader, you're not going back now? Are you going to mediate with the so-called Continent's Emperor? Now that the Elves have invaded our territory and have actually begun to massacre the city, it means that the other party has already disregarded the consequences. It is impossible to mediate now. Besides, you see, the Continent's Emperor hasn't shown up yet. I don't know if he doesn't want to see us. What's the point of us staying here? "Penello said immediately.
"Then what's the point of us going back?" Unexpectedly, Dilba immediately asked, "Our biggest dilemma now is actually the lack of food. We, the great warriors of the Beastmen, are not afraid of war, whether it is the Elves or the Wyrms, but the biggest problem now is the lack of food. Can we solve the food problem by going back?"
"This …" Penello was speechless. Yes, the food problem was not something that the two of them could solve by going back. They couldn't just casually conjure up food. "Great Leader, what should we do?"
"The question I am considering now is … Is the Continent's Emperor messing with us?" Dilba suddenly said.
"What? It's … it's him? "Penello was shocked." What's going on? "
"The Elves' massacre reminds me of the Northern War a few months ago," Dilba said after thinking for a while. "The Elves have never massacred cities before, but now they have suddenly begun to do so. Don't you think it's a little suspicious? This action is exactly the same as what the Continent's Emperor did when he was still a Duke … I suspect that the Elves received a hint from this guy. Otherwise, why would they launch an all-out attack at this time?"
"This … is indeed possible." Penello thought for a while, then nodded. "But why is he targeting us? Is it because we agreed to attend the ceremony last, and the Continent's Emperor is dissatisfied with our response speed?"
Last time, when Li Huailin announced that he was the Emperor, the Beastmen were the last to respond, and this time, the Beastmen were the last to agree to attend the ceremony. In fact, the Beastmen really didn't want to submit to Li Huailin, so they were forced to acknowledge him every time. Could it be that this incident caused Li Huailin to be dissatisfied? This was the first reason that came to Penello's mind.
"This … is possible." Dilba thought for a while and agreed with this view for the time being. Of course, they wouldn't think that Li Huailin just wanted to kill them. "There is another point, and that is the problem with the Dragons. When the Dragons attacked our border city, the Saint-level Alliance sent people to intervene, but then the Saint-level Alliance split up. After that, several Saint-level experts formed the Avengers Alliance, and they obeyed this guy's leadership. I suspect that this matter has something to do with him, and the Dragons may also be related to him … "
"What? Even the Dragons are related to him? This guy is too scary, "Penello said in surprise.
"Of course this guy is scary. Otherwise, he wouldn't have become the Continent's Emperor," Dilba said. Dilbao said, "In short, I think he must be messing with our Orc Clan, so to solve this matter from the root, we must see him. Only then can it be solved."
"But … He is not in the mansion now, and we can't find him at all. What if he is hiding from us and doesn't want to see us?" Penello said.
"Hmm …" Dilba thought for a while, then suddenly said, "Let's go to the Human Race's Emperor Anthony first and ask him to mediate."
"What? We're going to find the Human Race's Emperor? " Penello was taken aback. The relationship between the Beastmen and the Human Race was not good. Although he also knew what Dilba meant, that was, the relationship between the Human Race's Emperor and Li Huailin was not ordinary, and it was much easier for Anthony to come forward than for them, the Human Race's Emperor might not necessarily help them.
"I know it's a little difficult, but now it's a moment of life and death. We have to try anything," Dilba said immediately.
So Dilba quickly made arrangements. First of all, of course, he ordered the orderly to inform the troops in the front to come back first. It was useless for them to stay in the front line now because there was really no food, so it was better to return to the main city. Then, he asked Penello to quickly contact the Human Race and request an informal meeting with Anthony. Finally, of course, he sent people to the Demons to ask the Demons for help. Although the Demons were now a puppet government, they were still allies after all. No matter what, he had to send people over first.
The informal meeting, of course, referred to a private meeting, because a formal state meeting needed to be quite formal. There were a lot of procedures, and the Beastmen could not wait that long. Anthony had just returned to the palace, and he was a little confused when he received Dilba's message. To be honest, Anthony wasn't very familiar with the situation in the Northern Continent. His own country was in chaos, and people were slaughtering the believers of the Goddess of Harvest. Although it wasn't a huge mess, the current situation was enough to make the Northern Continent chaotic. However, Anthony still agreed to meet Dilba under Prime Minister Mach's suggestion. According to Mach, no matter what Dilba was going to do, he would listen to it first. It was not like he had to agree to it.
Soon, Dilbago met Anthony. This time, Anthony brought a few trusted ministers to meet Dilbago in the side hall of the palace. As soon as they met, Dilbago gave Anthony a big salute, which startled Anthony.
"Your Excellency Dilba, there's no need to bow to me." Anthony's own strength was certainly not bad. He immediately stepped forward and pulled Dilba back. Although it was really cool to let Dilba give him a big gift, Anthony really couldn't accept this gift now.
"Sir Anthony, please save the Beastmen this time." Although he was held back by Anthony, Dilba still forced himself to bend down. His strength was certainly not bad, and he was even stronger than Anthony, so Anthony really couldn't hold him back when he forced himself to bow.
Anthony had no choice but to accept the bow. Fortunately, he wasn't alone. Seeing that Anthony was having a headache, Prime Minister Mach immediately came out.
