Dark King

Dudian woke up on time the next morning. He called Neuss to ask about the situation in the outer wall area.

The outer wall had become peaceful. Although Dudian’s proposed policies had caused a huge uproar but it had gradually calmed down. Occasionally there would be some chaos which was dealt with by Richelieu and Barton, the four forces of the magistrate, Holy Church, military and dark council had joined hands. The nobles of the outer wall had no choice but to bow their heads.

Although the nobles were strong but there were a lot of them. They were loose and couldn’t compete with the four forces.

Dudian was able to control the entire outer wall. He had the military’s “Military”and the magistrate’s “Law”as well as the holy church’s “Faith”in his hands, even if he reversed the situation, it was legal. No one dared to object.

“It will take at least three days to develop the mountain and fill it with gunpowder.”Neuss said.

Dudian frowned, “So Long?”

Although it was a huge project and it was rare to complete it in three days. But don’t forget that he had a lot of labor and money in his hands. He could drive countless civilians to work for him.

“There is a wall builder who has investigated. The rock structure in the mountain is very special. It will be difficult to break through.”Neuss lowered his head.

Dudian frowned. Three days was a bit slow for him. Although the inner wall region would recover in half a month but it didn’t mean that the inner wall region wouldn’t send troops to attack the outer wall region. After all, Hathaway had led many pioneers to attack the inner wall region, it would definitely cause a huge uproar if it involved all the forces. It was enough for the inner wall to pay attention to it.

“You should send people to the parliament to select some hunters who are good at opening rocks and have similar magic marks ability to assist.”Dudian said after thinking for a moment.

“I understand, master.”Neuss nodded. There was a trace of worry in his eyes. He saw that Dudian was mobilizing the troops. This meant that the crisis was imminent.

“How is the pharmacist Camp of the parliament? Is there anything that can be taken out?”Dudian didn’t wait for Neuss to leave.

Neuss paused for a moment: “Since the establishment of the pharmacist camp we have been studying all kinds of drugs. There is a big breakthrough in the treatment of drugs. If there is a war in the future…”

“What about poisons?”Dudian interrupted him.

“Poisons?”Neuss was startled: “The research on poisons is slow. Considering that we are going to fight against the inner wall, the pharmacists camp will focus on the treatment…”

Dudian sighed in his heart. He blamed himself for not reminding them earlier, “No need to research on the treatment drugs. Stop immediately and let them develop poisons. No matter what type they are, as long as they can make people lose the ability to fight then it will be fine. The most important thing is that they must be unable to solve the problem!”

“Uh… do all the pharmacists make poisons?”

“Yes.”

“Then the medicine…”

“If the war really comes, the soldiers of the outer wall won’t be able to compete with the inner wall. If the battlefield is one-sided and massacred, what’s the use of the medicine?”

Neuss was startled: “But… but if that’s the case then why did you let the Barbarians move into the slums and let the Army recruit people? Wouldn’t that be sending them to their deaths…”

“Yes, but not in vain.”Dudian saw that Neuss hadn’t understood his intention, he could only say: “There are only two options for the inner wall to recapture us. The first is to send the pioneers to kill me and reduce the number of innocent casualties. The second is to launch an all-out attack. In this case, if all the people in the outer wall are soldiers then they will have to think twice.”

“They want to recover but not destroy the outer wall.”

Neuss suddenly understood. He didn’t think that Dudian would use the lives of these people as a bargaining chip instead of strength. It was true that no matter how many soldiers there were they wouldn’t be able to compare with the fighting strength of the inner wall, he didn’t have the capital to think of them as strength.

“But…”Neuss looked at dudian, “Although the military’s recruitment benefits are high but there aren’t many people who join the army. If the war really starts then these civilians may not be willing to help us.”

“They will help us.”Dudian’s eyes were calm, “They have enough reasons to fight for us. This reason is the reason that the inner wall has been reminding them for the past 300 years.”

“What reason?”

“You can become a noble if you go out to kill the enemy!”

..

..

Four days passed in the blink of an eye.

Everything was carried out in an orderly manner. The mountain had been completely opened up and filled with explosives. With the cooperation of a large number of hunters, the entire project only took two days.

At the same time, countless miners were digging and opening up the saltpeter mines in the outer wall area.

The entire outer wall area was in the stage of preparation for war.

Dudian had been staying in the temple for the past four days to practice combat. He was thinking about the current situation and the means of deployment. He was observing the inner wall area and arranging people to infiltrate it.

Although the war could break out at any time but he had to send his men into the inner wall to make long-term plans.

“Unfortunately, the time is too short.”

“If I have three years then I won’t need to spend a single soldier to subdue the inner wall.”

Dudian sighed in his heart. Some people felt that time was too slow and they couldn’t spend it all. Some people didn’t have enough time.

The number of soldiers patrolling on the wall of sighs was hundreds of miles away. The outline of the human city was clearly visible but the war was still raging. There was smoke everywhere and the city was in ruins, there were many towering and strong city walls that were destroyed. The traces of destruction were shocking. The air was filled with the strong smell of rotting corpses.

The clouds were ethereal, and the breeze was gentle.

All of these changes could not affect the sky that was thousands of miles high. Sunlight quietly penetrated through the clouds and shone outside the towering giant wall, in the hunter’s zone that was inhabited by monsters, one by one, huge monsters crawled and caught their prey.

At the end of this area, a group of human figures slowly appeared.

These human figures stood in a row and walked. They were all wearing large robes and carrying all kinds of strange weapons on their backs. Some of the weapons were giant scythes that were four to five meters long, and some were giant sticks that were full of spikes.

They walked very slowly, but their figures quickly became clear. A wild boar-like monster that was gnawing on the zombies sensed the human figures and immediately rushed toward them while howling.

Before it got close, it suddenly flew backward, and its several-ton body exploded into a sea of blood in the air.
