Chapter 527: The Hostility of the Human Countries
The East-West Main Road was the main road that connected the east gate of Lionheart City to the west gate of Lionheart City.
Lionheart City was the largest city in the Dukedom of Leo, and it was also a trading city. This had been planned since the beginning of the establishment, so the design was very reasonable.
The planning of the road was extremely orderly, and it extended in all directions. Moreover, the main road was very wide.
The East-West Main Road and the North-South Main Road were like a cross, directly dividing lion heart city into four symmetrical regions.
Of course, the east, west, south, and north regions were not divided in this way.
Instead, they were divided with the four city gates as the central elements.
Moreover, at the junction of the East-West Main Road and the North-South Main Road, it was not the central city area of the four regions.
That was the center of Lionheart City. The four major districts intersected with each other, and it was the most prosperous place in Lionheart City.
Kant and Baheshtur met at the central district.
The surprise attack on Lionheart City was originally an extremely fast war operation.
Therefore, Baheshtur’s war plan was linked to one another, and he did not slack off at all.
At this moment, Kant and Baheshtur gathered together and prepared to attack the east city gate.
Even though the n.o.ble families in the Eastern District knew that someone had attacked Lionheart City’s south city gate and north city gate last night, they did not have enough time to react.
It was only midnight. They had to inform the estate first and then transfer more private soldiers from the estate to Lionheart City. It was impossible.
Not every n.o.ble could communicate with magic like Kant.
Kant rode his horse and led fifty Swadian Royal Knights, forty Sarleon Lion Knights, one hundred and ninety mages and one hundred mage apprentices on the Southern District.
Their speed was not very fast, but it was not slow either. They were in a steady charging state.
The mages did not have horses, but after a few mages cast group acceleration on them, the weak mages easily caught up with Kant and the knights’ speed.
Mages possessed mysterious and powerful strength, and they had incredible power.
At this time, the sky was already bright, but the sun had not yet risen. It was still very early, between five and six in the morning.
In the southern district of Lionheart City, there were also many people who did not sleep at all.
At this moment, many people stood by the roadside, looking respectfully at Kant leading the army towards the north.
The situation was just like the dock area.
Strength was always awe-inspiring.
The army led by Kant was obviously an extremely elite force, and there were even mages who were famous for their mysterious strength.
The civilians in the Southern District of Lionheart City were mostly poor, and they were in awe.
Kant followed them and showed his strength, which would make it easier for him to rule after he occupied Lionheart City.
As long as they didn’t obstruct him, he wouldn’t do anything to these civilians.
He didn’t have time to do anything to them.
As long as he occupied Lionheart City, these people would naturally become his subjects.
Kant’s indulgence naturally made these people more courageous.
Therefore, many people at the Southern District were observing this army from a very close distance.
Some people were whispering.
There were also spies among the poor.
They were well-informed and recognized Kant’s army.
The rumor about Kant had caused a great sensation in all the human countries on the continent. Even all the sects in all the human countries had dispatched knight orders towards the Dukedom of Leo.
These spies in Lionheart City naturally knew some of Kant’s information that had been announced.
Among them, the most shocking one was the name of the “Swadia” which “used to belong to the demons”.
Moreover, Kant openly used the lion as the main body of the badge.
At this moment, all the knights and mages, including Kant, had badges on their chests that were very clearly displayed in the eyes of the spies.
A golden lion with a red background!
“It’s Baron Kant!” the spies whispered.
Kant’s appearance was naturally well-known by these spies.
Among the humans, the most well-known face probably belonged to Kant.
“Last night, it was actually his army that occupied the south city gate?”
“It seems that Baron Kant is really going to rebel against Grand Duke Cameron.”
“This seems to be a fact that is happening. Look at those cavalries, what a terrifying feeling! They are even more terrifying than the army last night.”
“Those cavalries are nothing. The people following behind these cavalries are the scariest. Looking at their attire, they are most likely extremely mysterious mages.”
“I heard that if a mage were to use all of his strength, a mage would be able to destroy a cavalry squad of fifty people.”
“Mages? So many mages?”
“Baron Kant’s strength is too terrifying. I’m afraid Lionheart City will have to change its master.”
“Let’s inform our respective masters as soon as possible so that they can make a decision as soon as possible. Even if they cannot rely on Baron Kant, they must not become enemies with him.”
Many spies took a shortcut from the southern district towards the eastern district.
n.o.ble families stood behind many industries in the Southern District.
The slums did not mean that there were few ways to make money.
The population itself was wealth.
The south city gate was at the center of Lionheart City. The intersection of the East-West Main Road and the North-South Main Road was ten miles away.
Kant took an hour to arrive.
This was the central district of Lionheart City, the most prosperous area in the entire city.
Kant’s attack on the south city gate of Lionheart City last night had obviously caused quite an impact on this place.
The sky was already bright, and the sun had already risen. However, at this moment, the streets seemed a little deserted.
Normally, there would already be heavy traffic here.
There would be hundreds and thousands of freight carriage going from south to north. The extremely lively scene did not appear today.
Not to mention that the north city gate and south city gate of Lionheart City, which were the main city gates for transporting goods, had already been occupied by Baheshtur. He had also sent out soldiers to seal off the area.
Just the thousands of terrifying troops that were exuding an extremely elite aura that were gathered in the center of Lionheart City — the intersection of the North-South Main Road and the East-West Main Road, had already caused the merchants who had rested in the central area for a night to be terrified, they did not dare to send their own convoy on the road.
Baheshtur was already waiting for Kant at the intersection of the North-South Main Road and the East-West Main Road.
Kant glanced around. The legions led by Baheshtur were neat and orderly. It was very easy to calculate the number.
50 Swadian Royal Knights.
50 Sarleon Lion Knights.
900 Rhodok Sergeants.
400 Rhodok Sharpshooters.
400 Vaegir Marksmen.
400 Ravenstern Rangers.
Excluding the 200 soldiers stationed at the south city gate and north city gate of Lionheart City according to Baheshtur’s battle plan.
The remaining troops appeared here unscathed.
This meant that in Baheshtur’s battle to capture the north city gate of Lionheart City, their casualties were zero.
“Why isn’t there a system prompt for epic victory or legendary victory?”
Kant thought in puzzlement.
