After a night of bloodshed, the City of Dawn did not descend into chaos.
Because this mission to eliminate spies did not implicate any innocent people. William's Eyes of Fire and Gold were not a joke. Whoever he stared at was a spy.
Actually, many spies had gradually developed a good impression of him. It was just that he was too lazy to slowly subdue them. Otherwise, wouldn't his endowments have been for nothing?
Actually, spies would not have red names. Before the war started, they were yellow names like the Winged people of the alliance. But other than a small number of Winged people in the City of Dawn, there were no neutral merchants in the City of Dawn. Hence, all those with yellow names had to die!
As for why the spies of the Honor Legion were so easily subdued, it was because when he chose them, they had already lived in the City of Dawn for a period of time. Because of various policies and the arrogant way of Glory and Eternity, it was really a flashy operation.
After such a long period of nurturing, he had gained even more good impression points. These people seemed to be yellow names, but that was only before the last veil was lifted. They were nominally part of the Iron Nation.
Most importantly, without 1000 good impression points, it was never considered absolute loyalty. Absolute loyalty did not mean that one could not be betrayed. Mistreating a pet with 1000 loyalty points would cause the pet's loyalty to drop and it might even run away. This was the same logic.
Even with William's endowments, he did not manage to gain all of his subordinates, let alone the others. A person's heart was not something that could be determined by numbers. There were too many factors involved.
There were more than 3000 spies. Who could guarantee that their loyalty points were above 700?
Even if their loyalty points were above 700, as time passed, and William's endowments slowly decreased.
Among them, in this invisible war, William's endowments were very important.
…
After many people in the city woke up, they saw that the eastern city wall was covered with bloody heads. There were more than 2000 heads. The feeling of yawning in the morning was as terrifying as seeing the end of the world. Many people were so scared that they almost peed their pants.
At this time, some people saw the notice and understood what had happened last night.
At this time, out of the five legions in the City of Dawn, three legions were not in the city.
Only the Honor Legion and the Guardian Legion remained in the city.
Initially, the barracks were built on the edge of the city wall for two reasons. One was to not disturb the lives of the civilians in the city, and the other was to quickly assemble and dispatch troops. They could even climb up the city wall to guard it.
As a result, almost no one noticed the departure of the three legions at three in the morning.
The key reason why the Glory Army did not send out their troops was to hide the fact that they had sent 500 spies. They had been sent to guard the mine and let the Iron Nation think that they were all dead. They might even be able to bring their families back in the future.
…
The three legions, together with William's personal guards, had a total of more than 9,500 warriors. They formed a black line that was 10,000 meters long and advanced rapidly along the cliff to the east.
They were heading to the military fortress 15 miles away. They could not hide their operation to eliminate spies for too long, as the Iron Nation would definitely notice that something was wrong if the spies did not send out magic scrolls for a long time. Time was of the essence, and they had to act in time.
"Although the Iron Nation's military fortress has yet to be completed, the city wall is 20 meters tall and seven meters thick. At least two rows of soldiers can stand on it.
"Furthermore, the city wall is very short. Even if the military fortress is only guarded by a legion, they can still set up defensive lines on the city wall. Even if it's not two rows, at least one row is enough.
"If we want to take down this military fortress, we will definitely suffer many casualties." Alec, the intelligence chief of the City of Dawn, immediately explained the details to William.
William raised his hand and narrowed his eyes. "How thick is their city gate? I remember that it's only seven inches thick, and there's a layer of three-centimeter thick steel. Furthermore, it hasn't been enchanted?"
"City gate?" Alec was taken aback. He quickly nodded. "My lord, you are right. They haven't had time to enchant it. But you only asked us to bring the siege ladders. You didn't ask us to bring the siege hammers …"
"Hehe, siege hammers?" William suddenly ordered. "Where are the two d * mn fools? Come over here!"
Subsequently.
The ground trembled.
Two tall figures walked out from the crowd.
It was the level-65 Bloody Crusher and another strong, equally fierce and cruel Troll.
However.
On the Troll's head was a huge A-shaped Epic helmet!
Lautner and the rest were dumbfounded. What were they going to do?
William snapped his fingers, pointed at the level-55 Troll, and said, "Siege Iron Doll, do you believe that after the mages bless him and give him a chance to run 100 meters, he'll be able to break through that seemingly indestructible door?"
The group of people gulped as they looked at the big guy.
He was almost four meters tall.
The Troll weighed more than 3000 kilograms. He wore a set of super high-quality armor and a specially made helmet of extremely high quality.
Don't say.
It was really possible!
However.
After crashing into the gate, even if the Troll didn't die, he would be retarded.
But William didn't care …
He had used soul magic to enslave the Troll. It was a disposable item.
Although the Troll also had Grandmaster bloodline, his other abilities were far inferior. He had fewer tricks than Bloody Crusher.
It could be said that in order to quickly take down this military fortress, William had used his trump card. He had used up an epic helmet and a Troll with Grandmaster bloodline. Was the price not high?
As for William's declaration of war, it would definitely reach the ears of Augustine and Goethe Nasis. But he didn't care.
The Iron Nation had prepared for the Dragon slaying battle for a long time.
Augustine was also a legendary figure who would not retreat until he achieved his goal.
He would not give up the Dragon slaying mission just because the military fortress was being attacked. He would not return in a panic.
Since he had prepared a lot, he would definitely slay the Dragon and return victorious with the corpse of the Dragon. Finally, he would arrogantly attack the City of Dawn together with the new legion sent by the Iron Nation.
So William had to act quickly!
He had already let Augustine leave one night earlier. If he delayed, whether it was because of the butterfly effect, Augustine would succeed in slaying the Dragon or fail. Then William would lose too many benefits and opportunities.
…
When the Dawn Army was less than five kilometers away from the military fortress, the scouts of the Iron Nation had already discovered them. This was not something that the Elfin rangers could stop.
The main thing was that this group of people did not travel through the forest. Instead, they walked on the flat grassland at the edge of the cliff.
This kind of blatant march was simply too arrogant …
At that moment, the walls of the military fortress were filled with soldiers. The frontline was filled with shield bearers, while the back was filled with archers. The catapults were ready, and some heavy-duty crossbows were also moved to the walls.
They had no choice. They had not built arrow towers yet. The heavy-duty crossbows could only be placed on the walls.
As the legion commander of the 13th legion, Brandt frowned. He silently cursed the intelligence department of the Iron Nation for being idiots and retarded.
He had heard that the higher-ups of the Iron Nation had planted no less than thousands of spies in the City of Dawn. There were at least 20 spies who had transmission scrolls!
If the City of Dawn attacked the military fortress, the spies in the city would definitely be alerted. They would not be able to hide from the spies in the Glory Legion.
"But they are already at our doorstep, and I have not received any news. Are you telling me that the Dawn Army is going to send troops to help slay the Dragon?" Brandt clenched his fists. He had just sent back information. Augustine would definitely not return to provide reinforcements.
But the reinforcements from the Iron Nation would need at least eight hours to arrive. This meant that he had to lead 3000 soldiers and defend until that moment.
He glanced at the tens of thousands of trembling slaves in the city. Naturally, he did not think much of them.
Perhaps there were many professionals among them.
But they had not gone through training and had no equipment. Their combat power was extremely low, and they could not climb up the walls. Even if they did, they would only cause trouble. They could only carry the arrows and do manual labor.
Hence, he shouted with a sinister gaze, "The legion of the City of Dawn dares to invade. Kill them all. Leave no one alive!"
"Kill!" 3000 people shouted in unison. Their voices were deafening.
The Dawn Army, which was tens of thousands of meters away, could hear them clearly.
William looked at the military fortress, which was almost entirely made of stone and steel. It gave off a strong sense of oppression. It was like a huge magical beast hovering above the cliff.
He gently waved his hand, and the flag was immediately raised.
The three legions quickly got into formation.
Among them, 3000 shield-bearers stepped forward in unison. They followed the command of the flag and advanced neatly!
And the short-haired William was in the lead.
He was like a charging rhinoceros. His running speed gradually increased …
The ground beneath his feet cracked, and the air around him whistled. His speed became faster and faster. He seemed to have transformed into a bolt of lightning, and he smashed into the city gate with billowing smoke and dust!
Bang!
A sword that shone with thunder battle energy slashed angrily at the city gate, which was made of steel!
The five-meter tall city gate trembled.
A clear crack appeared on the city gate!
When Brent saw this scene, his heart that had risen to his throat swallowed back into his stomach. He laughed in disdain. "How much battle energy do you have? How can you slash with your sword? "
William shrugged his shoulders and shook his numb hand. He silently leaned against the city gate.
Then …
A huge figure wearing steel armor walked out from the formation. He also ran wildly towards the city gate like William …
Brent was in a daze as he rubbed his eyes. "Gosh?"
