Chapter 359 Beheading

Chapter 359 Beheading
The Wind Knights equipped with the Gale Core are the fastest of the nine Primarch Legions.

Therefore, according to the war plan formulated by the General Staff, the Wind Knight Corps was responsible for cutting off all contact between Donnar and the outside world and keeping the border wall firmly under the control of the committee.

And the Wind Knights did not disappoint the committee. Under the leadership of the Primarch, the Wind Knights marched day and night at high speed and reached the border gate in less than five days.

After capturing the border gate at the speed of light, the Wind Knight Corps quickly controlled most of the border wall.

At the same time as the border wall was captured by the Wind Knights, the ordinary legions of the Committee heading south and the other eight Primarch legions were also sweeping through the coalition forces at an astonishing speed, like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.

Compared to the United Army that was defeated by the Green Tide, the War Council, which also fought with the Green Tide and even faced the Green Tide's all-out attack, not only was not defeated, but because a large number of soldiers broke through in the high-intensity fighting, the number of first-ring, second-ring and third-ring soldiers within the army skyrocketed.

Therefore, the military strength of the War Council not only did not decline, but on the contrary it increased a lot.

Of course, when the war with the Green Tide just ended, the military strength was still weakened because many soldiers were still in a weak state of resurrection.

But now, with the soldiers freed from their weakened state of resurrection, the War Council's military might reached its peak.

It can be said that compared with the soldiers of the United Army, the soldiers of the War Committee are not only superior in comprehensive quality, but also have stronger weapons and equipment, training intensity, military discipline and regulations, and combat courage.

In addition, after the Green Tide War ended, the War Council had already begun to prepare a war plan to go south. What about the United Army? Ever since Kan Ozu defeated Eleanor with a slap, it has been depressed until now.

Not to mention organizing troops to be vigilant to the war committee, the rule of the coalition forces was almost at its end. Various banditry and war disasters emerged one after another, and the entire territory was in ruins.

Under such circumstances, the United Army could not organize an effective resistance at all, so what could they use to fight the War Council?

In fact, the nobles of the coalition forces were not an obstacle at all and were all easily annihilated, even the families of high-level transcendents.

High-level transcendents were either killed by Roland alone, or beaten to death by a constant stream of legions.

It’s not that there are no high-level extraordinary people willing to surrender, but they cannot accept the surrender conditions given by Roland.

Roland vetoed all their status, demanded that all their property be confiscated, that they give up all power, and accept the supervision of the committee.

Simply put, Roland wanted to confiscate everything they had except the power they possessed.

It is naturally impossible for high-level extraordinary people to accept such conditions.

So, they rejected the only chance the committee gave them, and then all died at the hands of the War Council.

In fact, the War Committee was also forcing these high-level transcendents to refuse. The new War Committee currently had only Roland as a high-level transcendent. If they were absorbed, even if all their wealth and power were taken away, these high-level transcendents would still influence the War Committee.

Take Locke for example. Even though he lived in seclusion in Black Rock, there was still a group of forces within the War Council who were loyal to him.

Even the high-level extraordinary beings were unable to stop the War Council, let alone the remaining forces, which basically collapsed at the first touch and were quickly wiped out.

The only thing that limited the progress of the War Committee were the roaming soldiers and bandits and the countless refugees.

These soldiers and bandits who had no fixed bases were running around everywhere. The committee had no choice but to conduct a comprehensive cleanup of every piece of land and suppress all the banditry.

At the same time, it is necessary to allocate manpower to occupy and take over the controlled areas and treat the refugees.

The situation of the coalition forces was even worse than the committee had imagined, so much so that the committee's military plan to move south was forcibly turned into a governance plan. The troops moving south spent more time fighting than suppressing banditry and treating refugees.

As the army continued to move south, the number of soldiers continued to decrease due to the need to leave behind personnel to take over and be responsible for the governance of the controlled areas.

While most of the committee was orderly conquering and annexing every piece of land of the coalition, Roland personally led an elite army, ignoring all the noble territories along the way, killing through one blocking army after another, and heading straight into the heart of the coalition, rushing towards the palace complex where Eleanor was.

After the Wind Knights took full control of the border wall, Roland also rushed to the palace complex.

Following the sound of war horses trampling the ground, Roland led his army to the foot of the palace complex.

As Roland raised his right hand, the army quickly stopped.

Roland put down his hand and looked up at the magnificent and luxurious palaces in front of him.

This is a palace complex built on a mountain. The area it covers is extremely exaggerated. At a preliminary glance, it is almost half the size of Apocalypse.

Moreover, the materials used in these palaces are very exaggerated, including gold, extraordinary materials, ancient trees, gems, glass, and silk.
Various expensive materials were used in this palace. Moreover, almost all the trees on the mountains were not native species. The Allied Forces spent huge amounts of manpower and material resources to pull out all the native plants on the mountains and replace them with various ornamental vegetation and extraordinary vegetation.

In addition to the vegetation, the animals in the mountains have also been replaced. A large number of artificially bred ornamental animals are active in the forest, and there is even a zoo enclosed.

If all the resources used to build this mountain range and palace complex were converted into other resources, it would probably be enough for the War Council to build dozens more Apocalypses.

Looking at this mountain range, Roland's eyes lit up.

Although these materials have been used and their value has decreased, they can still be exchanged for a lot of resources if they are all dismantled.

Just after annexing the United Army, the new territory will require a lot of resources to reform. The resources sold from this mountain range are estimated to be able to support it for a long time.

Thinking of this, Roland became a little cautious.

These are all resources, they cannot be destroyed.

After thinking for a while, Roland looked at the mountains in front of him and spoke.

"Sir Eleanor, please come out."

Although Roland used his normal voice, his voice still spread throughout the entire mountain range due to the magic.

As Roland finished his words, a powerful force erupted from the palace complex.

"Roland, if you don't want a peaceful merger, do you have to kill us all?"

As a huge voice resounded all around, a ray of light flew out from the palace complex and floated high in the sky.

Eleanor's figure emerged from the light. She lowered her head and looked at Roland calmly.

Roland looked up at her and said calmly.

"It's not that I want to kill everyone, but it seems that you haven't seen the situation clearly. Negotiating conditions depends on strength."

Hearing Roland's words, Eleanor frowned slightly and scolded in a low voice.

"Humph, we have already made concessions, outsider, don't go too far!"

"Maintain autonomy, retain privileges and lands, and surrender nothing except nominal submission. Your Excellency, is this your sincerity?"

Roland took out the Grimoire and spoke calmly.

Eleanor looked at Roland and shouted.

"Young people should not be too arrogant."

"Sir, are you too naive? You are not qualified to negotiate with me. We have signed so many treaties. Peaceful merger is impossible. We will not recognize the status of the United Army. Now, you only have one choice, and that is unconditional surrender."

Roland shook his head and said lightly.

"Tell me, what is your choice?"

Eleanor stretched out her right hand, and a long sword appeared in her hand. She spoke in a somewhat aggressive tone.

"Hmph, that sounds nice, but you still want to be the only king of Donnar." "You raise the sword of justice, but you are thinking of your own selfish desires."

"To put it bluntly, it's just for their own benefit, but they say it's for the country and the people. Disgusting and hypocritical!"

Roland raised his eyebrows slightly and said casually.

"It seems that you have made a choice."

"Do you really care about people's lives? You start a war so casually. Have you ever thought about how many people will die in this war? Have you ever thought about it?!"

Eleanor gripped her sword tightly and shouted in a sad and angry tone.

Roland glanced at her and spoke calmly.

"I have not come here to bring peace but a sword, to kill thousands and tens of thousands with sword and sword."

Eleanor was stunned for a moment when she heard Roland's words, and didn't react.

This plot is wrong, shouldn't he choose to argue with her? Why did he just admit that he came here to kill people? This is wrong.

Eleanor came to her senses and continued speaking with forced calmness.

"The Insidious Butcher"

As Eleanor began to speak, Roland interrupted her.

"Let these boring last words stop here."

Roland snapped his fingers, and then, magic circles quickly appeared out of thin air around Eleanor.

He didn't like talking nonsense, and the reason he chose to chat with Eleanor was mainly because he was setting up the magic circle.

Now that the arrangements were complete, Roland was too lazy to continue chatting with her.

In Roland's eyes, Eleanor was already dead. Roland didn't care what his enemies and the dead thought of him. Eleanor's words couldn't even stir up the slightest ripple in Roland's heart.

Then, Roland's figure disappeared from the spot and appeared in front of Eleanor out of thin air. The magic circle started to work, and endless elements began to rotate, and the entire sky changed color.

"boom!"

The sky and earth began to change color.

Roland and Eleanor ignored the fight in the sky. The elite troops under the mountains began to attack the palace complex in front of them.

As elite soldiers, they were full of confidence in Roland. Kan'ozu was even killed by Roland, not to mention Eleanor. Roland would definitely win.

Under the attack of the elite army, the elite troops of the United Army in charge of the palace complex were completely unable to stop the elite army and were directly beaten through by a single punch.

In less than a squad, the committee's elite troops broke into the palace complex. In three hours, they killed their way through the palace complex. In five hours, they broke into and occupied the core of the palace complex. In seven hours, the committee's troops controlled the entire palace complex.

After the committee's army captured the palace complex, Roland grabbed Eleanor's head and slowly and calmly dropped it from the sky.

Roland threw her head to the ground and said calmly.

"Eleanor is dead. This place is now in your hands. Guard the committee's property."

After killing Eleanor, Roland also regarded the mountain as the property of the committee. Roland still valued this huge wealth very much. After all, the War Committee is very poor now.

This wealth cannot be missed.

"Yes."

The soldiers responded in unison.

Then, a captain came over, saluted Roland, and asked.

"Chairman, we found some slaves belonging to Eleanor inside the palace, including a sun elf slave. How should we deal with them?"

"Sun elf?"

Roland frowned slightly and quickly recalled the information he had heard before.

Eleanor spent a huge amount of money to buy a sun elf slave.

She actually bought it.

Thinking of the high price of the Sun Elf, Roland hesitated.

Qianhu nodded and spoke.

"Yes. In addition, according to preliminary examination, she is also a fourth-ring spellcaster."

Roland thought about it and spoke.

"How's your sanity?"

"He is of normal mind and has no suicidal tendencies."

Qianhu responded immediately.

"She's a fourth-ring spellcaster. We can't handle her the same way as before. We should separate her from the other slaves and lock her up alone. We should take good care of her. As for how to deal with her, we can decide after the war is over."

After a pause, Roland continued.

"You will guard her in person, and then find a few psychic spellcasters to help her resolve her situation."

"Yes, I understand."

Qianhu bowed his head and replied.

"If there are any extraordinary people among the other slaves, lock them up separately first. As for the ordinary slaves, follow the previous process."

"Yes."

After hearing the reply, Roland nodded slightly, then tore open the space and disappeared here. According to the information from the General Staff, the space was teleported to other battlefields to support the battle.

After being promoted to a higher level, Roland's mobility has become stronger. High-level space spells are no longer so dependent on space anchors. Even if there are no legendary spellcasters to measure the world, Roland cannot use clear coordinates for precise transmission, but relying on the vague location information provided by the General Staff for rough transmission is enough.

In fact, Roland did not follow this elite army to attack the palace complex. While the elite army was charging towards the palace complex, Roland had been constantly teleporting around the battlefield to speed up the progress of the war.

In addition to this, Roland was also responsible for the governance of the occupied areas. After his brain was upgraded for the second time, Roland directly took on more than 50% of the government affairs in the occupied areas.

At the same time, Roland occasionally worked part-time as a courier, responsible for some logistical work, using space magic to transport food and supplies from the rear of the committee to various occupied areas.

Even when Roland was fighting with Eleanor, he was also dealing with government affairs, otherwise, Eleanor would not have been able to hold on for that long.
