Chapter 387: Blood Sacrifice Slaughter and Union Laws
Chapter 381 – Blood Sacrifice Massacre and Alliance Laws
While Owen was busy creating a protective net for the territory, he didn’t know that someone was actively leading the wolves into the house.
Compared to the North Glory Union, which is full of strength and unity, and the North Pass Border City Union, which inherited the Imperial Border Army, the Northland Noble Union is not only insufficient in terms of hard power, but also insufficient in terms of depth and depth, and also faces the threat of many foreign forces, and is therefore forced to form a highly centralized alliance, to jointly set up the alliance’s army, and to jointly fund the construction of public roads and facilities, which is hard to unite the entire alliance together.
However, the alliance is always an alliance, and it would be strange if there is no internal conflict, not to mention that in order to successfully form the alliance, the first law passed by the alliance is the inviolability of private territories, which makes the nobles of the Northland, who are all lords, to join the alliance, because only to ensure their own rights and interests, they will contribute money and effort.
However, such a law has a very serious consequence, that is, the Alliance’s laws need to be obeyed by the Alliance, but the Alliance’s laws can not be enforced on a certain Alliance member’s territory, that is to say, the rights of the Alliance members on their private lands are above the Alliance, including tax collection, army, trial, etc., and this right is also supported and guaranteed by the Alliance’s laws.
This is hilarious, in theory, as long as the alliance members pay their share of taxes to the alliance, the alliance does not have the right to interfere in any way with the alliance members’ territories, even if the alliance’s nominal council of nobles does.
If the outside world at all times to maintain a huge pressure or in a state of war, maybe it will be better, the problem is the neighbor to the north, that is, the northern glory alliance, thirty years do not move the place does not afford the sword, unless the initiative to mess with, or else the hand is lazy to lift, such an object, you have to hard to say that it is a threat is also fine, the key is to have someone to believe.
The Northland Noble Alliance and do not need votes, do the Lord are noble Lords, that is so easy to fool, so it does not work.
As for the Northland barbarian tribes, almost almost ruined, and blocked by the northern glory alliance, also can not become a threat.
The threat of the barbarian kingdom is real and big, but the distance is too far, and the accumulation of power is slow, without a decade or two to save up the power to go south once, plus it is almost the enemy of the entire northern land, most of the time it can also be ignored.
The only real threat is the Northern Pass Border City Alliance, but with the Northern Glory Alliance and the Barbarian Kingdom, they don’t dare to invade in a big way in case the other side catches a break and invades, not to mention the fact that the Southern side of the Northern Pass Border City Alliance is next to the Hundred Cities Alliance, that’s a terrifying behemoth, who dares to take it lightly.
Therefore, the northern nobles alliance is actually very safe, there is no huge threat, in the early years, although there are scruples to form an alliance, but thirty years of peace and quiet, leading to the top and bottom of the inevitable slackness, in the case of the external enemy does not come to fight, take the initiative to fight but can’t, the alliance’s internal contradictions and fighting naturally grows day by day, and even began to unscrupulous up.
Not long ago someone found the evil energy, do not know out of what idea, even took the initiative to spread the evil energy in their own city, and even attracted some evil rats, as a result, things immediately out of control.
The other party originally just wanted to reach a certain goal by spreading evil energy on a small scale, but he didn’t expect that a group of rats would make him plant a big head.
Compared to the crude usage of those who had just discovered evil energy, the evil rat people who had been immersed in evil energy since birth were no different from born evil energy users.
Moreover, the evil energy secret realm is broken, although the evil energy rat people are not extinct, but they are also greatly injured, and they desperately want to recover their strength, so what else is faster and better than devouring the life of a city with evil energy, so the original small-scale influenza turns into a large-scale plague.
As for agreeing to the conditions of a certain human, oh, they are evil energy rat people, how can they abide by the agreement.
The ecstatic Evil Energy Rat People are like rats carrying the plague spreading Evil Energy crazily in the city, so that more and more people are infected with Evil Energy and become more and more twisted, and the whole city is inevitably plunged into chaos. After the baptism of the undead and demons, the residents of the Northlands had long been aware of how much trouble these mutated people would cause, and that the best way to kill them was to kill them with a sword and burn each other to ashes with fire, so they decisively raised their butcher knives to anyone with green eyes.
But the evil energy didn’t disappear, because as long as it was infected, the evil energy would keep devouring life to grow itself, and death was just a way to get the evil energy out of its host and increase the concentration of evil energy in a certain area, which made it more convenient for the Evil Mouse Man to drive the evil energy to infect more people.
The evil energy relies on devouring life force to spread rapidly, causing a large area of pollution, but the secret realm where the evil energy rats were before was too closed, and they were still novices in blood sacrifice and slaughtering, so in a short period of time they only caused a huge panic, and if they wanted to really use evil energy to devour a city, they were still too early to do so.
However, the appearance of evil energy and the chaos caused by the evil energy attracted the head of the devil and the Church of Flesh and Blood, these two are revolts to play the blood sacrifice of the veteran, the barbarian kingdom of the undead blood sacrifice are not as skillful as they play, so the damage caused by the evil energy is much greater than the evil energy.
Three deadly forces mixed and fermented in a city, the impact is not comparable to a single force, even the Demon’s Head and the Flesh and Blood Church people did not expect Evil Energy’s talent in this area is so amazing, and suddenly had a lot of interest.
Of course such a big commotion could not be hidden from the people, just the merchants traveling to and from the city would spread the news, not to mention the people who were still alive in the city would also call for help from the outside world.
But with the spread of evil energy, the blood sacrifice has already begun, that is so good to stop, right now the north of the country except for the barbarian kingdom and barbarian tribes have been alarmed, have turned their attention over.
This unlucky city is not far from Ferrier and Solari’s city, just a few dozen miles apart, which makes the two nervous, immediately mobilized troops to the border line, ready to lay a defense line in the direction of the other city.
Both of their armies are semi-firearm armies, not only equipped with a large number of muskets, but also carries many artillery, fighting a defensive war is far more advantageous than the cold weapon troops, which is also the reason why both of them decided to set up defenses at the border line, because they don’t want to fight with the other side in their own city.
Every northern nobles would expand their territories around the city as the center, so most of the northern nobles shared borders with each other, in order to avoid conflicts and disputes, a clear border line became a necessity.
After ordering the troops to set up defense at the border, Feryl and Solari headed to the other side’s city with a small number of elite troops.
Witnessing the green evil energy spreading through the city, the demonic laughter in their ears, and the twitching of flesh and blood as if it had an independent consciousness, made the two men’s faces change wildly, and they immediately retreated twenty miles with their troops.
In reality, if the two men were ruthless enough to immediately attack the city regardless of casualties, it was possible to interrupt the blood sacrifice of slaughtering the city, but in reality, it was impossible, not that the two men’s armies couldn’t fight their way in, but that it wasn’t permitted, nor was it legal.
