The imperial troops were unexpectedly caught in the middle, but they succeeded in subduing the soldiers who had fallen into a state of panic. However, it's cost a lot of people's lifes to tem .
There are many soldiers sobbing and crying. Many of them had killed their friends with their own hands. Some of them had families, loved ones.
But they destroyed them with their own hands. Of course, they can resign ourselves to the fact that this is war, but this is different.
It was obviously terrible. It was too much. Why did they have to kill their friends who were supposed to be on their side?
The answer to that question is simple. It's all the kingdom's fault. The kingdom used some kind of magic to makes the soldiers crazy.
"This is the way the kingdom fights: ......!"
The soldiers clenched their teeth. There is no mercy. "We will return this grudge, this pain, several times over," they swore
The imperial troops, who at first were just obeying orders and whose morale was not high, became enraged by the despicable fighting of the kingdom troops raised their morals .
"I won't allow it!"
The imperial army that had been standing still began to march again.
Baynard, who was watching the imperial army from the fort, sensed that the atmosphere of the imperial army had changed.
(The air of the imperial army has changed. It's probably because of the magic we just performed. I'm sure they have a strong hatred for the kingdom. This is a tough one to deal with. ......)
The emotion of anger is the driving force that drives them . The stronger the anger, the more intense it will be.
Now, what was driving the imperial army was not only the emperor's orders, but also anger towards the kingdom.
When this happens, people are strong. Until their anger is extinguished, the imperial army will not stop burning like a raging fire.
But don't forget that there is more than one measure that Leolde has taken.
"So, shall we begin with Act II? Commander Baynard. Let's activate the next magic circle."
Baynard huffed at Rudolph's words. I felt sorry for the enemy, but we are at war. We have to switch it up, Baynard said as he activated the next magic circle.
The magic circle appears again over the heads of the advancing Imperial troops. The Imperial troops are instantly on alert, but unlike last time, they are not illuminated by the suspicious light.
"What is it now? What are you doing?"
A confused voice rises at the magic circle, which shows no movement. Immediately after that, a few balls fall from the magic circle. The balls tumble to the ground.
The Imperial troops watched with bated breath as the balls rolled down, and then they stopped.
The Imperial troops were relieved to see that it was just a plain ball rolling down, but the next moment, there was a whooshing sound from the ball and purple smoke came out.
The Imperial Army was surprised by this. Because of the incident earlier, the imperial troops thought that the purple smoke must have something to do with it, so they kept their distance.
After a while, the purple smoke spewing out of the balls stopped.
"What is it? Is it just a scare?"
As they approached fearfully, the soldiers started to suffer and blew bubbles. One by one, the soldiers collapsed, writhing on the ground in agony, twitching and convulsing, and then died.
Those who had been watching the scene fled in terror, but it was too late.
They were already inhaling Rudolph's special poison gas made from poisonous monsters and poisonous plants that Charlotte had obtained.
The poison, which is fast-acting, will definitely kill you if you inhale it. If there was a high-ranking recovery wizard such as Charlotte or a saint there, they could detoxify and save the day, but unfortunately there is not.
"Wind magic! Use wind magic to blow away the air around you!"
When the commander realized that the purple smoke was a poison, he thought of blowing the air around him , but it was meaningless.
. I know you will. But there is no point now. The poison gas has already lost its effect.
What Rudolph had created was a poison gas that would only last for a few seconds. The reason for this was that if it was made to last for a long time, it might cause damage to their side when they attacked.
"Is this really a war ......?"
Trembling with shivers, Baynard blurted out his feelings.
"Commander Baynard. It would be best if you refrained from making such a remarks .
"Pretend you didn't hear that ......."
"Yes, of course. "
"That smoke didn't affect us?"
"Yes. When we deployed the magic circle, we set up a barrier to completely block the smoke, so it won't affect us in any way.
Baynard was both relieved and worried when he saw Rudolph smile .
(How many more tricks does Leoldd have in mind?)
The imperial troops were even angrier to see so many suffering and dying people from the poison.
But at the same time, their instincts warned them that they should not march any further. The first magic circle, the second magic circle. Both of them were more than enough to cut their hearts out.
If the kingdom was still hiding such magic, the imperial army decided that it would be dangerous to advance any further.
"It is dangerous to advance any further. We must retreat temporarily and reestablish our position."
Following the commander's instructions, the Imperial Army turned back. Rudolph, who was watching the situation, raised the corner of his mouth.
"Commander Baynard. The enemy is turning back. Let's put the finishinsh them off "
"Is there more?""
"Yes , although it's not the same as before."
Baynard could not trust Rudolph's words. However, he couldn't just let them off , so Baynard activated the last magic circle even though he had a bad feeling about it.
The magic circle spread out at the feet of the retreating Imperial Army. The imperial troops panicked at the sudden magic circle.
" Hurry up and get out of this place! All of you evacuate!"
The Imperial troops that were lined up hurriedly take evasive action against the magic circle that suddenly appeared on the ground. They run away in pieces, but the magic that Leorde and the others thought up doesn't keep anyone alive.
The ground cracks open, and lava pools at the bottom. The fleeing soldiers struggled to move their feet, but they could not escape the cracks in the ground.
They strengthened their bodies and leapt, but the ground cracked where they landed, and they were swallowed into the depths of the earth.
After the cries of the imperial tropes echoed in the air, the cracked ground closed as if nothing had happened.
Most of the kingdom's troops who were watching were sitting on their hands.
"What the heck is this ......?"
This is not war. It's something much more terrifying. ......!""
The kingdom shuddered as it learned of Leolde's power. This was the moment when many people realized how foolish it was to think of go against him.
