"Everyone, a new mission has arrived. This time, you will pick up your weapons and fight against the demons who have invaded our homeland."
Tang En stood on the high platform at the north end of the square, and his calm voice rang clearly in everyone's ears. "You heard me right. This time, the enemies we will face are demons from Purgatory."
Demons?
The legendary creatures of Purgatory who only wanted to destroy everything and had no sense of reason?
The soldiers frowned. Although the enemy was terrible, none of them were nervous or afraid of fighting.
Because Tang En had brought them great confidence.
They looked at the shiny new armor on their bodies, then touched the chainsword on their backs that radiated magical light, and the Blood of the Goddess and the Return Crystal on their waists. These were all treasures that could not be bought with money. With these treasures, they had nothing to fear, no matter how terrifying their enemies were.
"You're not afraid?"
Tang En looked at the silent soldiers with a little surprise.
"No!"
The soldiers shouted in unison. "Obey the order! Protect the country! Protect the homeland! "
"Good, very good."
Tang En smiled, then continued, "I wanted to tell you some good news to make you feel more at ease, but now it seems a little redundant, so I'll tell you directly."
"This time, the Paladins of the Radiant Church will fight with us. The divine blessing of the Paladins can add the power of the holy light to all of us. It has a strong restraining power against the Purgatory Demons, and also has a strong defense against the power of the demons, so don't worry too much."
Hearing that the Paladins would fight with them, the soldiers, who were a little nervous, could not help but smile. They even began to rub their hands together, looking forward to the battle.
Then again, the Purgatory Demons also had a lot of good things …
The lava crystals from Purgatory were excellent forging materials, the horns of demons could be used in some alchemy, and their bones and skin often had strong heat and acid resistance, so they were also excellent materials for equipment.
Next, the warriors began to line up and check their equipment and rations. Those who had problems would report for replacement, but they would replenish their rations on the spot. After everyone's problems were solved, Tang En immediately activated the teleportation circle and led them to Taris.
The Great Rift Valley was still some distance away from Taris, and the Ellington Guards still needed to transfer to the Harley-Davidson motorcycles and rush there as fast as they could.
Unfortunately, due to the existence of the Great Rift Valley, the construction team of the Star Diamond Bank was affected, and the construction work of the highway was not in place. If there was a highway, it would only take a few hours to reach the Great Rift Valley by Harley Davidson.
The sudden appearance of the mighty convoy in Taris naturally attracted a lot of attention. It even alerted the city's patrols and sounded the alarm.
When the patrol team found out that the leader was Tang En Majesty, they immediately stopped calling the police and escorted Tang En and the others out of Taris.
"What happened?"
Nitro stopped writing. With his sharp hearing, he heard the alarm in the city. "Enemy invasion?"
"I'll go and find out."
Before the adjutant walked out of the gate, the alarm suddenly stopped.
"It stopped again?"
Nitro frowned slightly. "Are the guards on duty drunk again?"
The adjutant turned around with cold sweat on his forehead. "Uh, my lord, I'll definitely investigate this matter later …"
At this time, Nitro suddenly listened for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No need."
"Huh?"
"It's Tang En Majesty."
Nitro calmed down and continued to practice calligraphy. "Give the order, from today onwards, food for four thousand … no, five thousand people will be transported to the Great Rift Valley every day."
"Food for five thousand people!"
The adjutant was shocked. "This is not a small number. Is His Majesty going to station troops there?"
"No, it's related to the missing caravans over there."
As the lord of Taris, of course, Nitro had his own intelligence channels. He was very clear about the disappearance of the caravans in the Great Rift Valley and the subsequent discovery of the traces of the demons. However, with Taris's military strength and territory, he could not take care of it at all, so he could only report the news to Alinx and the Mercenary Guild.
Tang En received the news and planned to come over to solve the problem.
"The missing caravans … Isn't that because of the demons?"
The adjutant's heart skipped a beat. "I heard that there are many traces of demons over there. Does His Majesty plan to only rely on four thousand people to fight the demons?"
"He didn't ask for reinforcements."
Nitro's hand paused, and the words on the paper were a little out of shape. He frowned slightly. His training was still not enough.
Nitro threw away the pen, then rolled the paper into a ball and threw it into the fireplace. He said casually, "Moreover, don't underestimate those four thousand people. They are the best of the best. His Majesty has equipped them with the best equipment. Their combat strength is even comparable to that of an army of fifty thousand."
"Moreover," Nitro smiled and said meaningfully, "this time, not only his personal soldiers participated in the battle, but also the Knights Templar of the Radiant Church. The sudden appearance of the demons this time has provoked the Radiant Church. "
"What I don't understand is why the Radiant Church has been on His Majesty's side since the beginning."
The adjutant stole a glance at Nitro, then whispered, "If it weren't for their support, Saxon or Sax would have a chance to return to the throne …"
"What young master? He's already seventy-eight years old. "
Nitro walked to the window with a smile and looked at the mountains outside. He said, "They don't have to think about that position. Our line has been destined from the beginning to have no fate with the throne. It's more realistic for them to look forward to my position as the lord. They probably can't wait for me to die."
The adjutant laughed dryly and said, "Don't say that. Saxon and Sax would definitely want you to live a long life …"
Nitro smiled very playfully and said, "Live a long life? Yes, after all, I'm now a hundred and ten years old. "
The adjutant felt a chill in his heart. He did not know if the lord had heard something inappropriate again.
"You may leave. Remember to tell them to start the operation today. Every morning, they must send the food for five thousand people to the place before nightfall."
After a pause, Nitro added, "Also, tell the border guards to withdraw their patrol routes and stay away from the Great Rift Valley."
"Understood."
Why did they have to send the food from Taris?
Because of efficiency.
Although Tang En had a teleportation portal, it was impossible for him to set up another one in the Great Rift Valley. That would be a little too wasteful.
He had also allocated spatial equipment to the person in charge of the logistics team. However, they did not bring any logistics team with them. All of them were combat personnel. The spatial equipment carried by the captains was filled with combat supplies. There was not much food. After all, the spatial equipment was not made by Tang En himself. The storage space was limited and could not be stored as casually as Tang En.
Tang En could not squat here every day to solve the food problem for them. He followed these people to the Great Rift Valley to set up a temporary camp and anchor the spatial coordinates. After that, he would return to Ellington. Compared to here, the technological breakthrough there was more important. He could not wait to see the researchers solve the previous problem.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A huge motorcade of flashy Harley-Davidson motorcycles sped along the official road from Taris to Alinx. The shiny metal shells, gleaming weapons and armor, as well as the murderous aura, all told the passersby nearby that they were not to be trifled with and should not court death.
Especially the bandits who were lying in ambush in the dark. They thought that they had a fat sheep, but when the sentry saw the equipment on the guards, he was so scared that he almost peed his pants. He frantically gestured to stop his teammates from committing suicide.
"Oh God! I know what that is! That is a Harley-Davidson motorcycle! "
A merchant passing by suddenly exclaimed. "That thing was sold at the Black Pearl Auction House in Fehra for a sky-high price of 500,000 gold coins!"
"Hiss! 500,000 gold coins!? Are you kidding? That expensive? There are a few thousand of them in total! "
"Of course I'm not kidding!"
The merchant who spoke widened his eyes and said, "I was there at the time! That Harley-Davidson motorcycle was bought by Master Angus! "
"Could it be that Master Angus has successfully mass-produced it after his research?"
Another merchant's eyes lit up, and his mind immediately became active. "Looking at their speed, you can imagine how efficient this Harley-Davidson motorcycle is. If it is used to transport letters or some particularly valuable small things, it will definitely make a lot of money!"
"They seem to be coming from the direction of Taris. Could it be that they are selling from Taris?"
"It is also possible that they have crossed the border from the Solant Kingdom."
"Impossible, crossing the border with such fanfare? And they are obviously combatants. That direction … Eh!? I get it! They are coming for the Great Rift Valley! "
"The Great Rift Valley? Hiss! Is it because of the demons there!? "
"It must be so!"
A group of merchants became excited. "Oh God, I hope they can quickly kill all the demons there. The feeling of being on tenterhooks is too scary."
Of course, Tang En and the others did not know the thoughts of the merchants along the way. At this time, he was still thinking about the combination of artificial souls and alchemy puppets to assemble the Prandal modified intelligent industrial robots.
In the sky in front of the convoy, Danny and the other rangers on Comet motorcycles were investigating the situation.
In order to adapt to the high-mobility reconnaissance activities as soon as possible, Tang En specially allocated Comet motorcycles to the rangers this time, allowing them to carry out high-altitude reconnaissance and high-altitude mobile combat. At the same time, they were also equipped with first-generation portable walkie-talkies to facilitate the exchange of information.
At this time, Danny's voice suddenly sounded from the walkie-talkie. "Reporting to Your Majesty! Traces of demon activity have been found in the forest ahead! We have locked onto the target! Suggest changing the route and eliminating the enemy! "
In the sky above the forest in the distance, a signal flare flew into the sky.
The effect was outstanding.
Tang En smiled. "All troops, listen up. The target is the direction of the signal flare. Move forward at maximum speed!"
