Salhi II had known about the existence of the Snowman Corps since last winter, but he absolutely didn't know that this army was in the snow-capped mountains around Loen. This was the biggest change since the start of the game. Although Salhi II was surprised, he quickly sat back on his chair, at least he didn't look panicked.
"I'm running out of time."
He didn't suspend the duel.
The frost only spread to the edge of the chessboard and then stopped, without affecting other items in the room. In the second round that continued, Salhi II still commanded his children. He followed Salot's plan and made quite strict arrangements for the siege of Dolores. As for the children who were scattered in Loen City looking for clues, Salhi II did not give them any guidance.
Jenkins spoke after the King used a handkerchief as a prop to bring the wounded back to life quickly. He watched the Snowman Legion outside the city stop there, and the white was spreading on the chessboard centered on that snowflake, so he knew that Alexia had her own ideas.
So feeling relieved, he gave instructions for the next round:
"Dolores will leave the palace through the secret passage with a few trusted followers, and temporarily hand over the command to Duke Rodbyer. After leaving the palace, she will go to the Church of the Sages in the city to seek help."
Salhi II looked at Jenkins, but said nothing. Instead, Princess Angelina Stuart, who had been silent all this time, asked in a low voice:
"Will the church help her? We returned to Ruen through this method, so we can't easily show up in front of the church, right?"
After hearing her words, Jenkins turned his head and gave the princess a smile:
"Don't worry, Dolores can't invite the church, but I still have a little bit of face in the church."
Her Royal Highness's face turned red because of the man's smile, and her father sighed again.
Jenkins continues the schedule to:
"Dolores will reveal her identity, and in the name of Jenkins Williams' fiancée, she will ask the church to help suppress the northern army that entered the city tonight. At the same time, the Church of the Sages..."
"You can't command the church, you can only command your chess pieces."
Salhi II said.
"I don't have a command, I'm just speculating about the actions of the church. The church of the sages is limited to the high tower agreement. Although they will not send extraordinary people to directly fight against the northern garrison, the church can send some gifted people. Next, help Dolores and the people in the palace.
At the same time, the Church of the Sages will unite with other churches in Ruen City to put pressure on the Northern Legion entering the city, requiring them to act according to His Majesty's instructions tonight, but not to kill too many people. The city is bleeding like a river. "
"Is this your kindness?"
"No, it's not kindness, it's just my bottom line as an ordinary person."
Jenkins didn't use props this round, but his identity can have a greater effect on Dolores than any props in this duel.
As Dolores entered the church, the golden star symbolizing the power of the church and the blue star on Jenkins' side converged and rushed towards the city. The situation was changing rapidly, and the entry of the church stabilized the city on the brink of war again.
The clergy were running around, and the Northern Garrison Corps had accepted the high-handed attitude of the church for some reason, and also suspended further actions.
At the same time, Sallot Stuart's steam cannon was finally transported from the city wall to the foot of the hill. But before he could give the order to fire the first deadly shell, there was a screech from the north of the city.
The princesses and princes of Loen didn't know why, but the king, princess and writer of Nolan could see a group of obese people wearing black cloaks appearing outside the city.
They marched in unison, ignoring the warnings of the guards outside the city, and raised their thick right arms that were firmly bound by the sleeves together.
As the huge spirit and nature resonated, the sound of water vapor crystallizing in the air gathered together, and then, as the huge snowball appeared in the sky, forming a shadow to cover the two rounds of the moon, everyone who saw this scene knew Something is not right.
The snowmen disguised as normal humans finally let the huge snowball hit the ground directly, thus smashing a huge gap in the ancient city wall that stood on this land 500 years ago.
The ear-piercing noise heard by the people in the city just now was exactly the sound made when Snowball broke through the city wall. The soldiers who witnessed this scene were completely confused.
"I swear none of this has anything to do with me."
Without Salhi II questioning Jenkins, he immediately said, stroking the cat while adding:
"Look, I've been here all the time."
Salhi II snorted and did not speak, but continued to watch that the weak defense line outside the city could not stop the attack of this group of snowmen at all. Whether it was the Northern Garrison Army or the city defense force, they all put the main force inside the city.
The snowmen who entered the city raised their right arms high. With the resonance of the spirit, the temperature dropped rapidly on the originally hot summer night, and they were trying to change the environment.
At the same time, the church noticed the change outside the city, and after a simple observation, it immediately understood that this was the reappearance of the Snowman Legion. Without time to find out where these snowmen came from, the church's bestower squad was dispatched, and the snowmen entered the city, which may cause everyone in the city to be transformed into terrifying xenomorphs.
As the capital of the Northern Kingdom, once this place falls, the entire Hampawo Kingdom may be invaded by this powerful monster.
The news of the Snowman Legion entering the city also reached the ears of the Stuarts ten minutes later. Most of these people knew what it was. After all, the children who grew up in the Northland had heard of this horror that spread in the Northland when they were young. legend. After a little comparison of priorities, the army immediately turned outside the city, and the steam cannon that had just been transported to the city was also disassembled and ready to be transported to the new battlefield that was about to be opened.
In just half an hour, the originally complicated situation in the city became simpler. Now, everyone's goal is to protect this city, this pearl of the Northland.
"What is Alexia going to do?"
Nolan's Jenkins thought in his heart, seeing the city fall together with Salhi II, first the snowmen poured into the city, and then the human army arrived, cooperating with the Church's benefactors to forcefully push up.
This scene is quite epic. This is the joint effort of mankind to fight against the disaster. It indirectly proves that Jenkins' attempt to unite all forces to fight against the catastrophe at the end of the era is completely feasible.
It's just that Jenkins, who knew the whole story about Ruen, couldn't figure out what the short lady was thinking.
PS: So what is Alexia going to do...
