Chapter 1137: Ready for the Fight


Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

A heavenly knight, 3 shadow knights, over 40 earth knights and over 500 black iron knights . Such a battle strength indeed made people feel awe-stricken . Such a battle strength was similar to that of a common military region in Taixia Country . However, after thinking about the high-end battle strength of Sacred Light Empire, Zhang Tie was not afraid of it even though he felt a bit stress from Sacred Light Empire because he knew that the Entire Sacred Light Empire would not put all of their battle strength on the remote place of Blackson Humans Corridor .

'How much battle strength did the demon general mobilize to launch a strike towards the entire Blackson Humans Corridor? How much battle strength would Sacred Light Empire mobilize to attack a small area of Blackhot Humans Corridor? In Blackhot City, even earth knights are rarely seen . Black iron knights would be unrivaled over there . An earth knight could make everybody breathless over there . ' Zhang Tie gradually recovered his composure when he realized this point .

According to the intelligence about the Sacred Iceland Kingdom, there wasn't any earth knight in that country . Only some important elders were knights . Additionally, the important elders from all the tribes of Ice and Snow Wilderness didn't unite with each other very well . Even Zhang Tie himself showed up as a black iron knight a few years ago . Nobody across the Sacred Iceland Kingdom knew that Zhang Tie had already promoted to an earth knight, not to mention the Sacred Light Empire .

When Zhang Tie thought about this, he narrowed his eyes and shot out a faint, shrewd light like fine needles .

However, this was just Zhang Tie's guess; he needed to verify it .

——Do you know the military strength that Sacred Light Empire intend to mobilize towards us?



Revenge was just an excuse . Profit was what Sacred Light Empire actually pursued for . If they only wanted to revenge, they could assign a team of powerful knights there . However, if they wanted to plunder enough profit, the knights would definitely be followed by an army . If not, even if those knights carried portable space-teleportation items, how many goods could they take away from the Sacred Iceland Kingdom? Did they want to be exiled to the Ice and Snow Wilderness from the prosperous Western Continent? Those major priests in Sacred Light Empire pursued land, power, population even the glory of disseminating religious doctrines . They were not bandits and common thieves who would leave right away after a robbery . Additionally, their army and those low-level priests could help them control the entire Sacred Iceland Kingdom and maximize their interest . It was not hard to guess this point .

——It's said that Sacred Light Empire's one fleet and one Sacred Light expeditionary army of about 200,000 people had already been ready for it in the largest harbor in the east of Sacred Light Empire!

'A fleet and an expeditionary army of about 200,000 people?' Zhang Tie sneered . If there wasn't any high-level knight, Zhang Tie could exterminate all of them before they approached the waters of Ewentra Archipelago only by sending one command . However, if these people just followed the high-level battle strength of Sacred Light Empire to accept the military exploits, they could gradually digest the Sacred Iceland Kingdom only by controlling major cities, harbors, mines, railways and trading markets across Ice and Snow Wilderness . Historically, there were many examples that hundreds of thousands of people could conquer a country which had dozens of times more population than them, let alone these guys who excelled at brainwashing and bewildering people . Of course, all these were based on premise that they had enough high-level battle strength to conquer or digest the knight over Ice and Snow Wilderness .

——How many knights do Sacred Light Empire mobilize?

Zhang Tie cared about this question most . Without the support of knights, the so-called expeditionary army was just a joke .

——According to our intelligence, it was those throne major priests in the east parish of Sacred Light Empire who want to devour the Sacred Iceland Kingdom in the excuse of revenging for the scepter major priest of Sacred Light Empire . After they proposed the plan, it's said that the sacred light major priest in the chair of the eastern parish of Sacred Light Empire had already agreed with it . However, the major priests in the eastern parish are still negotiating the selection of candidates who are responsible for leading the expeditionary army . The final plan might be that one or two throne major priests would lead some scepter priests to go on a punitive expedition for Sacred Iceland Kingdom, followed by a fleet and an expeditionary army . They want to sweep over the Sacred Iceland Kingdom like how a lion fights a rabbit .

Sarlin the Pontiff explained it very solemnly even heavily through the remote-sensing crystal . As for the few black iron knights of those tribes in Ice and Snow Wilderness, such a strength was indeed overwhelming . They only needed to dispatch a qualified throne major priest, an earth knight who had reached above 5-change realm to crush the weak counter-force in Ice and Snow Wilderness . After receiving such an intelligence, Sarlin the Pontiff and those important elders in Ice and Snow Wilderness started to be intense and flurried .



'One or two earth knights and some black iron knights?'

However, such a battle strength was nothing for Zhang Tie .

After blinking his eyes for a few times, Zhang Tie became relaxed all over at once . Like how he had imagined, although Sacred Light Empire was powerful, they had already treated the Sacred Iceland Kingdom seriously enough with such a military strength . Even so, they were actually making a fuss . However, this bit of battle strength was just a piece of cake for Zhang Tie .

Zhang Tie's experience in Taixia Country was indeed bumpy; however, Zhang Tie could gradually despise common earth knights . Only after a few years, who could imagine that Zhang Tie could make such a fast progress in the battle strength?

——What's our plan?

——After negotiating with Elder Gulas and the others elders, we've determined to seek some powerful allies in Taixia Country using the source of berserk energy . The best possible result is that the Sacred Light Empire could retreat when they find that we have some allies . By then, we will reach an armistice with them . If the source of berserk energy didn't work, we would use the piece of God's Star of the huge bear tribe . If the piece of God's Star didn't work, we would fight them to death . Our Slavs would never be slaves and squeezed . Elder Gulas and Dali have already reached Xuanyuan Hill of Taixia Country . There's a grand meeting over there . Our source of berserk energy might be able to attract the attention of some big figures on the Eastern Continent .

In order to respond to the coming army of Sacred Light Empire, Sarlin the Pontiff had made three countermeasures: first, the source of berserk energy; second, the piece of God's Star; third, fight them to death .

Sacred Light Empire was really powerful . Facing such an opponent, even Elder Gulas and the other elders of Ice and Snow Wilderness chose to find allies who would like to support Ice and Snow Wilderness for the source of berserk energy, they preferred to not fight Sacred Light Empire by force; instead, they preferred to threaten the opponent and reach an armistice with the opponent . This was not sadness but helplessness . Because there was such a sharp contrast between the two parties on battle strength . The three sacred light major priests of Sacred Light Empire were like three unshakable mountains in front of Ice and Snow Wilderness, not to mention that there was a heavenly knight behind the three mountains .

Sarlin the Pontiff was worried about the expeditionary army of Sacred Light Empire . However, after hearing the configuration and population of the expeditionary army of Sacred Light Empire, Zhang Tie had made a comprehensive plan to respond to them in a short while .

——Whether any airboat will attend this action of Sacred Light Empire or not?

After considering it for a while, Zhang Tie asked another question . This question was very important . Because airboat had a strong maneuverability, if some knights of Sacred Light Empire went to Ice and Snow Wilderness by airboat, Zhang Tie had to change his counter-attack plan towards the expeditionary army of Sacred Light Empire greatly .

——Across the entire Sacred Light Empire, there are only 4 airboats, which respectively belongs to the pope of Sacred Light Church and the three sacred light major priests . On the Western Continent, only top knights could have private airboats . There were fewer airboats on Western Continent than that in Taixia Country . All the airboats on the Western Continent are provided by Taixia Country . Additionally, when Taixia Country sold these airboats to those big figures on Western Continent, they had reached a very strict agreement, namely, these big figures and countries which had airboats on Western Continent were forbidden to put airboats in use of battles between humans . This intelligence was provided by Golden Roc Bank . According to the appointment between some countries on Western Continent and Taixia Country, as long as Taixia Country found that they put airboats in use of battles between humans, Taixia Country would interfere with the battle and confiscate their airboats by force .

Zhang Tie had not imagined that the airboats provided by Taixia Country should follow this regulation . Because of this regulation, everything had become simple . Now that airboats were so rare on Western Continent, perhaps some top figures in Sacred Light Empire didn't think that the so-called Sacred Iceland Kingdom was as expensive as one airboat; of course, they would not put their airboat in use of such a punitive expedition .

——Given your information, those knights of Sacred Light Empire would come here together with their fleet .

——Yes .

——How long will it take their fleet to arrive at Ewentra Archipelago from Sacred Light Empire?

——The fleet and expeditionary army of Sacred Light Empire had already moved to the navy base on Morninglight Island in the easternmost part of Sacred Light Empire 2 months ago . As long as the major priests arrived, the fleet and expeditionary army of Sacred Light Empire would set off . It would only take them about 1 month from the navy base on Morninglight Island to the waters of Ewentra Archipelago .

——Well, I see . My situation is not as perilous as that a few years ago . However, I still have some things to deal with in Taixia Country . You could have a try using the source of berserk energy . Hopefully, you could find some allies for us in Taixia Country . However, don't expose the information about using the piece of God's Star for the time being . I will pay attention to it . From now on, you need to notice me all the information about the action of the expeditionary army of Sacred Light Empire timely .

——Yes, Your Majesty!

——The waters in the periphery of Ewentra Archipelago is the graveyard of this expeditionary army of Sacred Light Empire . Without my consent, none of the major priests of Sacred Light Empire is allowed to step onto any inch of land of Sacred Iceland Kingdom .

Zhang Tie sent the last words decisively . . .
