"Comparing people with each other is so irritating." Reid's sinister voice sounded in Farasi's ears.
Farasi was struck by Red's words, but she remembered the scene last night, sighed softly, and quietly followed Ryan in.
Red stood there, looking at Farasi's back with different eyes. He was very strange in his heart: "Why does Farasi seem to be a different person today? He said such shocking words to her, but she didn't feel anything at all." Angry, weird.”
Alina nudged Red from behind and said, "Follow up quickly."
Red turned his head and looked around. Alina and Oz behind him were looking at him with strange eyes, "Red, what are you doing standing here? Hurry up and leave." Alina urged again, and Red was expecting With a doubtful heart, he followed Faras and walked in.

Orlando sat upright on the chair, looking intently at a huge military map hanging on the wall in front of him.
This is the third time he has sat here in the past two months. After Bacon returned to the imperial military camp and Orlando learned the specifics of the Battle of Sheephorn, Orlando immediately wrote a secret letter to General Keenst, who was guarding the Thunder God Fortress in the north, reminding him of the movements of the Clay tribe in the Nantalun Grassland.
General Kyenst was also a member of the Royal Knights. He was sent to the Thor Fortress on the northern defense line of the empire ten years ago. Orlando has maintained correspondence with him.
However, judging from the recent replies from General Kyenst, it is not only the Clay tribe that is ready to move, but also the Beitalon grassland to the north of the Thunder God Fortress. There are also signs of instability. The large number of scouts from the orc tribe has increased, which seems to indicate something. However, General Kyenst organized a cavalry force of thousands of people and penetrated hundreds of miles into the North Tarun grassland but found nothing, as if there were no creatures living north of the Thunder God Fortress.
After all, there is a Thunder God Fortress in the north. Ever since Fernando I drove the orcs out of the Nantalun Grassland, the Thunder God Fortress has become a watershed between the territories of humans and orcs. Over the past two hundred years, the orc tribe has organized more than ten large-scale attacks in an attempt to Attack the Thunder God Fortress and recapture the Nantalun grassland with rich water and grass. However, the Thunder God Fortress has become a nightmare for the orcs. Over the past two hundred years, no less than a million orcs have died under the fortress, but they have not been able to set foot on the fortress wall, even just for a moment. Just take that small step.
The Thunder God Fortress also got its name from this, or maybe only the anger of the God of Thunder can conquer this huge and strong fortress, right
Orlando's eyes gradually moved downwards. There shouldn't be any big problems with the orcs in the north, but he still had to write another letter to remind General Keenst to be more vigilant.
So what about the Clay tribe of Nantalun Grassland
Orlando shook his head. This is a fanatical and paranoid race. About six or seven hundred years ago, a Clay Empire once appeared on the prairie. The Clay Empire's light cavalry possesses unparalleled mobility on the continent and has become a nightmare for all dismounted melee troops.
After more than four hundred years of glory, the orc tribe rose, while the Clay Empire slowly declined. Finally, the orcs captured the city of Kellais, the capital of the Clay Empire, and the once powerful empire perished.
However, a group of people who claim to be the royal family of the Clay Empire always keep the restoration of the country in mind, but it seems that their luck is not so good. The grasslands in the north are ruled by powerful orcs; there are endless mountains in the west and the sea in the east, which is difficult to adapt to. The race on horseback survived; in the end, it could only gradually move south. At that time, there were four powerful countries in the center of the continent. They fought against each other. In order to survive, the Clay survivors had to become mercenaries and were frequently employed by These countries are fighting.
More than a hundred years of frequent wars have directly led to a sharp decline in the mainland's population, and have also slowly consumed the strength of the mainland countries. Seeing that the restoration of the country is imminent, the undead army suddenly appeared when the mainland was at its weakest.
As if overnight, millions of skeleton warriors swept across the Kingdom of Dianis in the western part of the continent. In just one month, the Kingdom of Dianis, famous for its heavy infantry, quickly fell. Obviously, no matter how powerful the heavy infantry is, they need to rest and cannot continue the month-long battle. In the Valley of Sorrow, the most elite King's Guard of the Kingdom of Dianis faced an enemy fifty times their size without any hesitation. They retreated and were eventually annihilated, creating a tragic scene. With the defeat at the Battle of the Valley of Sorrows, the Kingdom of Dianis became the dust of history.
Later, Fernando I defeated the undead army and drove the orcs out of the southern grassland. At that time, Fernando I had a force of more than 30,000 Clay light cavalry. Fernando promised them that after the war was over, they would be allowed to return to their homeland and freely choose the lifestyle they liked. However, the entire continent could only There is a country called the Holy Empire. Not only the Clay people, but the remnants of all other countries can return to their homeland, but they can only have autonomy, but no sovereignty.
It seems that after 200 years of cultivation, these Clay tribesmen have become restless again. A few days ago, Orlando received a secret report that the leader of the Clay tribe, who had always been leaning towards the empire, suddenly fell ill and died, and all his tribesmen became Clay tribesmen. The people of Sheikh Abdul, the spiritual leader of the tribe.
"Perhaps, it is necessary to send a squadron of the Royal Knights to visit the Clay tribe. 200 years ago, we all fought against the undead army and the orcs together and formed a deep friendship. Today, 200 years later, it is necessary to enhance our understanding. , Strengthen the friendship between us." Orlando thought.
After dealing with the potential threat in the north, Orlando breathed a long sigh of relief and set his sights on Seck City in the south.
In fact, Orlando has been aware of the rebellion in Senat in the territory of Seike City for a long time. However, as long as the lords of each territory do not violate the laws of the empire or clearly raise the flag of rebellion, Orlando, as the empire's highest military commander, has no way to intervene.
When the undead army swept across the continent, everything they passed was desolate. After the victory of the Holy Alliance, the continent was in ruins and was waiting to be revitalized. Fernando I had no choice but to adopt this lord system. Unexpectedly, two hundred years later, it became a shortcoming that restricted the empire. Orlando thought with regret: "Although the current Emperor Fernando XIII is young, he is smart, capable and energetic. He will definitely be able to become a rejuvenating king. When the time comes, I will do my best to assist His Majesty in clearing away the thorns in his crown and rebuilding the entire country." Imperial order!”
