Olgali was startled when she heard this: "I'm sorry, I only know that the emperor has a bloodline, but I don't know who it is or how many descendants it is. I only know that many important people are trying their best to keep this secret and protect that bloodline, even though it is rumored that it is dying."
Tianyang said "Oh" and didn't ask any more questions. The reason why he thought Moonlight might be the descendant of the "King of Conquerors" was because the things that the emperor's bloodline described by Olgali were doing were basically the same as Moonlight's, which led to such a guess.
Unfortunately, it cannot be confirmed.
"The Lord of Tianyang City knows a lot about the deeds of the Silver Empire. I wonder if you have heard of 'Yalati'?"
Olgali posed another question and prepared her answer.
Unexpectedly, Tianyang raised his head and looked at her: "Yalati? The legendary lost city, the capital of the Silver Empire?"
Olgali exclaimed: "You even know this?"
Tian Yang chuckled: "I have said before that I once led a soldier from Guibao, and he was the one who told me about the Lost Yarati."
"I see."
"Yes, according to legend, the 'King of Conquerors' spent his entire life in battle, conquering many lands and collecting countless treasures. He hid all those treasures in the capital of the empire, a city on the sea."
"That's Alati."
Olgali changed her sitting position, put her long legs together, and continued, "Alati was built on an island. After the 'Conqueror King' went crazy, a civil war broke out. The battlefield tore Alati apart and eventually it sank into the sea, becoming a legend on the sea."
"Originally, the location of Yarati should have been fixed, but for some reason, it has not been found until now."
"We have consulted a lot of the life of the 'King of Conquerors' and read countless files, and we have discovered one thing. The 'King of Conquerors' once used several items with mysterious and strange abilities. One of them can split space. The split space is similar to a 'crack'. Only by finding the correct entrance can you enter."
"So we suspected that the reason why Arati has not been discovered until now is probably because the emperor divided the space and hid the capital. Based on this speculation, we began to secretly search for Arati on the sea several years ago."
Olgali leaned forward slightly and lowered her voice, "Just before I set out for the Hell Castle, we had already found the approximate location of the 'entrance'. We should be able to enter the lost capital next."
"There is such a thing." Tianyang nodded secretly in his heart. This makes sense. Otherwise, if it just sank into the sea, how could it have been so long without being found
If it is stored in a space like a crack, it is hard to say.
"Yes, if we hadn't found the entrance, I would never have believed it. It turns out that Alati has always been under people's noses, but we just can't see it."
Olgali smiled and said, "This time, we invited the Lord of Tianyang City to be our guest in our fortress. First, we want to establish a closer relationship with the Lord of Tianyang City. Second, we want to invite the Lord of Tianyang City to participate in the exploration of Yarati."
"If the emperor wanted to collect Yarati, I don't know if he didn't make any arrangements. We can't put all our resources and manpower into the exploration, so I want to invite you to join us."
"If you wish, you can also send your fort's troops to participate in the development. Of course, we cannot guarantee that there will be any gains."
Tianyang nodded, understanding Silver Dragon Castle's idea. They felt that with the strength of their fortress, they would need to invest a lot of manpower and resources to explore Yarati, and Silver Dragon Castle's current foundation was obviously not enough to support such an approach.
If they were to look for partners, they would be worried about introducing a competitor that was too strong and would end up being overshadowed.
Therefore, a fortress like Lieyang Fortress, which is just starting out but has sufficient powerful resources, is the most suitable choice.
"Okay, if it's worth developing, I'll dispatch troops and personnel here next." Tianyang agreed readily. After all, this matter was also beneficial to Lieyang Castle. Moreover, after entering Yarati once, he could come and go freely with the help of the 'Gate of the Crack', and could enter the depths of the capital alone and find valuable things before Silver Dragon Castle.
Tianyang has no interest in ordinary treasures, and is willing to let the wealth be discovered by Silver Dragon Castle so that it can be distributed in a normal way. Tianyang's target is the Dusk Slate, a mysterious item once used by the "Conqueror King".
The 'King of Conquerors' has been to so many realms that he must have discovered the Dusk Slabs. Even if those things are not in the capital, there must be clues.
Thinking of this, Tianyang was very much looking forward to the upcoming 'journey'.
At this time, Olgari's communicator rang. After she listened to the communication, her face changed.
"What happened?" Tianyang asked with concern after she ended the call.
Olgali said bitterly, "It was Ironblood Castle and Redwood Castle. They have always coveted our Clave Gate. This time, they took advantage of my absence and our fortress's scattered forces to launch an attack."
"Although we tried our best to set up defenses, they still captured several important affiliated towns. Now their coalition forces are divided into four armies and are penetrating into our fortress territory from different directions. They are gradually closing the battle line. If we go back now, we will probably run into one of the armies."
Tianyang narrowed his eyes slightly: "Iron Blood Castle? Redwood Castle? What are they specifically?"
Olga then explained the two fortresses to him.
These two fortresses were built in the last two hundred years. The Iron Blood Fortress has a slightly longer history and is larger than the Red Shirt Fortress. The army of this fortress is brave and good at fighting. There are many strong men in the fortress, including three of the Heavenly Rank.
The reason why this fortress was able to develop rapidly was that it adopted the strategy of fighting to support fighting. For nearly one or two hundred years, they launched wars everywhere and tried every means to seize resources, thereby quickly accumulating strength.
In addition, they own a Kraf Gate. Through the development and exploration over the past two hundred years, they have obtained a lot of resources and technologies from the Reverse Realm, which has made the Iron Blood Castle tend to unify the surrounding areas.
And they did so, and now the only ones left in the area where Iron Blood Castle was located are Silver Dragon Castle and Redwood Castle.
A big reason why Silver Dragon Castle wants to cross the desert to develop is because there is a powerful enemy, Iron Blood Castle, lurking around, and it has become difficult for them to develop in the area they are in.
After all, if it wants to develop, it will inevitably come into conflict with Iron Blood Castle, and now Silver Dragon Castle feels that it is not the right time. The Lord of Silver Dragon Castle will make the decision to suppress Iron Blood Castle after opening Yarati.
But now, Iron Blood Castle
They defeated the enemy one after another and, together with Redwood Castle, launched an attack on Silver Dragon Castle.
"Because we responded to the mobilization of the Golden Court, now the Golden Court should issue a warning to Ironblood Castle, and Ironblood Castle needs to respond within the specified time."
"So instead of retreating before the deadline, they will become more aggressive, hoping to capture our fortress before the deadline."
"Then the Golden Court will not be able to say anything."
Olgali snorted and said, "These cowards, they didn't dare to start a war when we were fully powerful, but they took advantage of this opportunity."
However, Tianyang felt that there was nothing wrong with what Tiexue Fort did. War is not a fair duel. There are no rules. You should just do whatever is beneficial to you.
"It doesn't matter. We came back at the right time this time. Maybe we can give them a surprise." Tianyang said with a smile.
Olgali nodded. Although Tianyang only brought 50 church warriors, she didn't have many soldiers. But there were three heavenly ranks among them. If they really let go, it would not be a big problem to kill an army.
More than half a month has passed since the Iron Blood Fort coalition launched the war. The Iron Blood Fort sent out two Heavenly Ranks, and the Red Shirt Country dispatched its only Heavenly Rank, plus 30,000 coalition forces, to attack the Silver Dragon Fort's territory in a mighty manner.
This attack without any warning caused Silver Dragon Castle to lose hundreds of square kilometers of territory overnight. Next, Silver Dragon Castle quickly sent out another heavenly general, Fernando.
General Zhiwei has many years of experience in leading troops. Once he entered the battlefield, he immediately demonstrated his extraordinary ability to control the battlefield. His tactics were extremely cruel and ruthless, and he almost never took prisoners, so as not to add resource pressure to the fortress.
With his strenuous efforts, the coalition forces of Iron Blood Castle were immediately slowed down, but as time went on, the general's shortcomings gradually became apparent.
Fernando is better at contact warfare and tactics, but he does not have a detailed grasp of the overall situation of the war, so there are loopholes in his strategic arrangements.
After realizing this, the Iron Blood Fort coalition forces took appropriate measures and stopped confronting the general head-on. Instead, they used strategies that interspersed guerrilla warfare, harassment, probing and other tactics to expose the loopholes in the Silver Dragon Fort's defense line.
As soon as a loophole appeared, the Iron Blood Fort coalition quickly exploited it, expanded it, and eventually broke through the defense line, thereby continuously eroding the troops and land of Silver Dragon Fort.
Fernando gradually changed from active attack to passive defense, and he himself was traveling back and forth between multiple local battlefields, running around all the time, but to no avail.
The battle line of Silver Dragon Fort has shrunk to the vicinity of the fortress's 'lifeline'. The so-called 'lifeline' is the Silver Dragon Fort's bottom line of war. Once it exceeds this bottom line, Silver Dragon Fort will be exposed to the enemy's artillery range.
On this day, in the military camp of the Ironblood Castle coalition forces on the Dragon Ridge Plain where the Silver Dragon Castle is located, in the main command tent, the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, Raymond Garnett, was looking at the holographic sand table and deducing the upcoming battle.
Next to him, Thor Valedin, a Heavenly Rank warrior from Ironblood Castle with a big red beard, said in a muffled voice, "We still have 36 hours. If we can't take down Silver Dragon Castle within 36 hours, we will have no choice but to retreat."
Raymond, who had a thin face and dark circles under his eyes, sneered with his hands behind his back, "36 hours? Thor, you overestimate our enemy. I would be surprised if General Fernando could hold out for 12 hours."
