Therefore, after the war ended, the rewards for the Seacclan warriors would be issued promptly, as it was a long-standing tradition.

If you send it late or not at all, you will face resistance from the soldiers.

When the time comes, if they take it to court, you'll have a hard time on land and at sea.

The Eternal Knight Empire struck simultaneously, catching the Hundred Nations Alliance offguard.

The Hundred Nations Alliance was not unprepared.

On the contrary, they had been preparing for a long time to resist the invasion of the Eternal Knight Empire with an absurd amount of various supplies.

However, they underestimated the strength of the Eternal Knight Empire.

Although the Empire had been expanding and the war had never stopped, in reality, it hadn't fully mobilized for many years.

This led to another issue.

Even among the Empire's highranking officials, there were very few elders who truly understood the Empire's strength.

If even the powerful elders are like this, then what can be said about those who infiltrated and barely mingled with the citizens and nobility? Their understanding of the Empire was too one-sided.

Even on this basis, the Hundred Nations Alliance greatly overestimated the strength of the Eternal Knight Empire.

But it was still far from enough.

There was too much of a gap.

In just half a month, more than half of the Borderland fell as the Eternal Knight Empire, relying on its formidable combat power, captured 17 cities.

The Empire's main force advanced and took three major cities, pushing straight to the capital of the neighboring kingdom, unstoppable.

At sea, the Empire's fleet, accompanied by the sea tribes, cleared out the allianc's embedded forces before heading towards the northern sea.

In the central area of the northern continent, there was a city, a main city that gathered the essence of the 100 nations, extremely prosperous.

Its name was Apocalypse.

The nations of the 100 nations alliance varied in strength.

The weak ones had populations of only a million tiny countries that would have disappeared from the annals of history if not for the protection of the alliance.

The powerful ones were top kingdoms with armies of a million possessing the spirit of an empire.

But unfortunately constrained by the alliance's restrictions and the collective suppression of various nations.

They could not expand.

Among the Hund Nations Alliance, the three most powerful kingdoms were the Kingdom of Lener, the Kingdom of St.

Ansa, and the Kingdom of Kajao.

Before this, the three sides had been in mutual confrontation, barely maintaining stability on the northern continent.

Apocalypse City was located at the junction of the Three Kingdoms.

But this was a land without a master, not belonging to any country, at least publicly stated as such.

An apocalypse city within a tall respplendant building.

Those at the peak of power on the northern continent gathered to discuss major matters.

Bang.

A burly man suddenly slammed the table, roaring in anger.

Damn it.

Are those border guards all useless? I spend so much money on them every year providing them with equipment and resources without fail.

Yet they can't even hold out for a day.

They're all worthless.

Raising a pack of ferocious dogs would be more useful than them.

Bang.

Another middle-aged man stood up, extremely furious, almost ready to draw his sword.

Shut your damn mouth.

If you have the ability, go fight yourself and experience the strength of that black armored army.

Otherwise, shut your foul mouth.

Do you really think that just because you spend some money and provide some equipment, you are something special? Sitting in the back and reading reports? Do you really think you grasp the situation on the battlefield? I may not have been to the southern border, but I've fought many battles.

In less than half a month, over a dozen cities have fallen, and we've lost three major cities.

This is not uselessness.

The burly man was not to be outdone.

Also standing up, confronting him head-on, "Hawk, you're looking for death.

" The middle-aged man clenched his hand, and a long knife appeared, ready to strike at the burly man.

The burly man also darkened his expression and took up his battle axe.

Both of you calm down.

Let us say a few less words.

Just a few less.

Now is not the time to argue.

How to deal with the eternal night empire is the key.

Seeing this, everyone stopped watching the spectacle and hurriedly spoke to dissuade the two.

And those nearby stepped forward to intervene.

The two remained fierce, ready to fight at any moment.

Just then, the person sitting in the upper position spoke up.

All right, that's enough.

Do you really want to fight here? It was a young man dressed in a luxurious magical robe, his voice calm, yet carrying an undeniable aura of authority.

You've all seen the specific battle reports.

This loss at the border is not the fault of the border troops.

Their response strategies were adequate, and the equipment and supplies were all in place.

To block the advance of the Eternal Knight army, they have used all means available.

Although defeated, they still hold honor.

We can only say that the gap between the two sides is too great.

With the young man's words defining the battle, the two instantly quieted down and returned to their seats.

The three main positions above belong to the three great powers.

An elder next to the young man also spoke.

The responsibility for this battle does not lie with the border troops, but with us.

We underestimated the strength of this new neighbor.

They are far stronger than we imagined.

What uses it to talk about this now? Is it important whose responsibility it is? Do we think that if we assign responsibility, we can resist the advance of the eternal knight army? The rough and burly man on the far right, very disdainful, said loudly, "Everyone, the border has been breached.

The three major cities of Soo, Benny's and Rant have fallen into the hands of the Eternal Knight Empire.

The capital of Liard is already on the opponent's platter.

And what are we doing? We have just received a battle report and are still assigning blame.

If we keep dragging this out, the kingdom of Liar can declare its destruction and our alliance can prepare to change its name.

The burly man's voice was thunderous, echoing throughout the venue, and everyone fell silent.

They naturally understood such simple reasoning.

However, it lacks some personal touch.

After all, it was not them who were about to be attacked to the capital.

Lord Jigel is right.

We can't wait any longer.

We must unite.

Those who can fight should fight.

Those who can contribute money should contribute money and together resist the advance of the Eternal Knight Empire so they can see our strength.

A slightly plump middle-aged man immediately responded, generously shouting.

The Duche of Goth will send half of its army and 150,000 laborers to the Alliance's command to support the resistance efforts.

As soon as the man spoke, others quickly followed suit.

The Duche of Carmy is willing to support 300,000 light crystals.

The Duchy of Ross is willing to support 200,000 servants.

Chapter 173.

Steady steps.

Marching into the Demilane after the battle between the Eternal Knight Empire and the Hundred Nations Alliance began.

It quickly fell into a war of attrition after intense early fights.

After all, sometimes capturing a city doesn't mean it belongs to you.

Conquering a nation is difficult, but controlling one is even harder.

This world is never short of rebels.

They are willing to fight for their homeland.
