After sending Oran away, when Franklin returned to the office, he saw Zero standing in front of the plasma panel showing the topographic map of the Western Continent.
A striking marking line was drawn across the map, and to the south of that marking line was the area already occupied by the Sea God Group, including Cage City. Zero's eyes fell on the north of the marking line, and he focused on Sauron's territory with a covetous expression.
When Franklin came in, Zero didn't even look back, but said, "You came just in time, come and see where our next target should be?"
"I would like to know more. Are you planning to fight all the way to Rome? In that case, Pope Paul probably won't agree?"
Zero smile: "Of course not, so he must force Sauron to step down from the internal affairs before I enter the city of Rome, so that he has the capital to negotiate peace with me. Otherwise, he will worry that I will make a fake show. Sitting on the throne of the king of this continent."
"Would you do that?"
"If Paul doesn't have that strength..." Zero solemnly said, "I will!"
Franklin nodded and said, "That will put me at ease."
Ling Qi said: "I thought you were going to say that I was going back on my word."
"That's just a mediocre idea. Which strongman doesn't follow the current situation to create the most beneficial situation for himself. If he sticks to the so-called promise, he will never reach the peak." The giant said disdainfully, he himself is sitting in an era People at the pinnacle are naturally qualified to say this.
"I didn't think so far. It's just that if the order was finally restored and the continent returned to its original state because of an incompetent pope, I would always feel sorry for the soldiers who died in battle." Lingzhan said.
Franklin didn't continue to discuss with him on this issue. The giant walked to the plasma panel, and with a glance, a huge finger landed on a certain point on the map. It was a city, with the words "City of Rock" marked next to it: "If it were me, I would choose this place."
"It's the same as I thought." Zero said with a smile: "The City of Green Stone is located at the center of the northern region, and it is the key point of the entire northern region. If it is taken down, it will be a strong wake-up call for Sauron and Paul. After that, Sauron shouldn't be able to resist coming to us for a decisive battle, right?"
"This should not be wrong. It's just that it's winter now, and there was fresh snow yesterday. The current road environment and radiation snow are not conducive to long-distance marches. It is more than 2,000 kilometers from us to the Rock City. When we arrive At that time, many soldiers may have fallen ill." Franklin frowned.
Zero patted his arm and said: "Even if you think so, then Sauron must think that these three months of cold winter will be a truce, but I will let him miscalculate. But you are right, ordinary soldiers are If it is impossible to march in the snow, then this time, let’s go out to the Trident, and the ordinary soldiers will stay in the fortress and other bases for training.”
"It's just a trident, I'm afraid it's not enough?" Franklin worried.
Zero shook his head: "Enough, this environment is not good for us, how can the soldiers of the Knights be an exception. I have already calculated that under such conditions, their combat power will drop by 30%, or even more than half. If you plan to attack the city head-on, you don't have to overthrow its walls to take the Rock City."
"Since you said so, then do as you want, what do you need me to prepare for you?"
"Mobilize the members of the Trident, and tell Haiwei that they have work to do. Give them two days to do warm-up training, and set off on the third morning." Zero said again: "But I need you to stay, once you come here We need to make a quick decision on the second siege, you are not good at speed, and the target is too obvious. Secondly, I need someone to sit in the rear, and our Royal Highness Paul still has two places to realize the divine prophecy, besides me Besides, only you can command the Destiny. Therefore, this side is left to you."
Franklin had no objection, nodded and said, "I understand."
While Zero was planning to attack the Rock City, Sauron was roaring angrily in New Rome thousands of miles away. Natov Island was one of the areas where his three private troops were stationed, but in one night, Natov Island disappeared, and even Natov, the leader of the private army, had no news at all. How could Sauron swallow it? Take it easy.
This morning, just after waking up from his sleep, he received news that Natov Island had lost contact. Ever since Paul claimed to have received a divine prophecy, foretelling that Natov Island would be sent by heaven, Sauron made Wessel have to contact Natov Island once a day. The first three days were safe and sound, but I didn't expect that when Wessel contacted the headquarters of the island this morning, he couldn't get in touch.
So Sauron immediately dispatched an investigation team, and soon got the news at noon that Natov Island had disappeared in the previous sea area, and the two large islands that served as concealment were divided into two parts by some kind of destructive impact. in two halves. According to the investigation of the colonial islands in the area and a precious video record, a strong light came from the south that night and blasted straight through the three islands including Natov Island, which led to Natov Island. The sinking of Husband Island.
The intensity of the beam of light and the majesty of the momentum are beyond the reach of ordinary weapons. Even Sauron's King Arthur, equipped with cannons, cannot do this. Afterwards, this video quickly spread in the city of Rome. This ironclad evidence confirmed Paul's oracle. For a while, many people took to the streets and marched, calling Paul the Son of God.
Until now, the citizens of the city of Rome are still gathered around the square in front of the Pope's Hall, Paul has received them, and once again delivered another oracle. Pointing out that Frosa Island will suffer another heavenly dispatch in the near future, he appeals to the residents and soldiers of the island to leave as soon as possible, otherwise their lives will be lost.
With the example of Natov Island, almost no one would stand up and question Paul's statement at this time, so the news spread like a whirlwind among the towns under the control of Rome, causing a lot of excitement.
"Bastard!" Sauron threw a delicate statue to the ground. Even though the statue was smashed to pieces, it couldn't restrain his anger. There was a fire burning in his chest, Zoro wished he could go to the square now and tear that boy Paul into pieces. He never imagined that the docile sheep suddenly showed its fangs and bit the lion hard.
And it bites pretty deep.
"How on earth did he do it?" Zoro kept repeating the question as he walked back and forth in the room.
Wither on the side whispered, "Could it really be... a divine metaphor?"
"Bullshit oracle!" Sauron yelled, "You pig, do you believe this kind of deceit to those foolish people? If there is a god, he should have appeared long ago. Why did he come out at this time to add something?" Fire. Istar, the Sea God Group... Now it is Paul. There must be some connection between the three that I don't know. It seems that I really underestimated Paul. It was pretended, and the purpose is for the present!"
"My lord, why don't I..." Wessel made a beheading motion.
Sauron snorted: "He is gaining popular support now. If I kill him at this time, do you want Mendriza and those old fellows to seize the opportunity to rebel?"
"Then we just leave him alone?"
"Of course not." Sauron said coldly: "Find some capable people and kill Paul quietly for me. Remember, they will die after this is done, but their families and relatives will get a big reward." a pension."
"I know what to do."
