Chapter 406: Chapter 7: Flames of War

“I’ll give you a proper welcome!”

Tarim’s gaze was fervent, his emotions becoming somewhat agitated. He spread his arms wide, shouting loudly: “I’ll dismantle your body, preserve your soul intact, and slowly torment you, unraveling your hidden secrets.”

“Hehehe, I can’t wait!”

This neurotic gaze made Lynch feel entirely uneasy.

Faith Magic is a spell from the Spiritual System that is extremely hard to control. Any wizard who studies this system has a mind that is anything but normal—either twisted in spirit or insane.

Meanwhile, Bloodline Magic is also not a stable or reliable system. It often brings about physical abnormalities, cell mutations, turning people into neither human nor ghost, and belongs to the category of magic that causes twisted mutations in the physical direction.

One twists the spirit, the other twists the flesh.

If Tarim, who has learned both, is normal, that would be unusual.

Such lunatics in his eyes are like decaying flesh oozing pus, just looking at it makes one feel nauseated, necessitating it being chopped up, ground into powder, and thoroughly erased from this world to ease the mind.

Lynch gripped the Cross Sword: “Then go ahead and try!”

With that said, he launched another attack forward.

The battle between them once again unfolded.

…

Elsewhere, north of the White Wolf River, Henry’s Orendale.

After crossing the White Wolf River, the vanguard of the Blood Knight Order immediately attacked the territory of the Pola family.

At that moment, Count Pola had just received the news that his own troops had been completely wiped out.

When this news first came back, it made Count Pola think he had heard wrong. After all, he hadn’t been capturing adventurers for just a day or two without ever encountering any trouble, not even facing any decent resistance.

His long recklessness had turned Feiyan City into something he viewed as a pushover, utterly unable to comprehend why this easy target suddenly turned so tough.

Yet before he could react, even more shocking news arrived.

“Count, we’ve been attacked!”

“Sir, an unknown knight order attacked Rog Town, Rog Town is requesting support.”

“Count, Valier River Valley has also been attacked!”

In just a short moment, a series of messages were conveyed, all without exception urgent reports from various places within his territory, noting that multiple towns had been attacked by unknown knights.

What is going on?

Count Pola found it utterly inexplicable.

His first reaction was whether a noble from the Kingdom was targeting him, as he couldn’t connect these attacks with the feeble Feiyan City.

It’s often the case that the unimaginable often approaches the truth.

Before Count Pola could understand, a knight under his command burst into the conference hall, bringing earth-shattering tidings—

“Count, we’re surrounded!”

And when Count Pola hurriedly donned his armor and arrived at the battlements, he saw the castle had been surrounded tightly, swarming knights stood on the plain, emitting a fierce killing aura.

“Attack!”

Accompanied by the knights’ orders and the loud sound of horns, the battle unfolded.

The Pola family’s knights numbered over a hundred, enough to be considered a substantial noble force in Henry’s Orendale and across Jade Land.

However, at this moment, the knights surrounding the Pola family’s castle numbered several thousand!

Faced with such disparity in strength, the Pola family had no room for resistance; by sunset that day, Count Pola’s head was hung on the city wall.

The Pola family, annihilated.

The war did not end with the fall of the Pola family. After securing this strategic point, the large forces and supplies from behind moved in, swiftly heading towards the various northern regions.

In no time, all of Henry’s Orendale was engulfed in the fires of war.

War is by no means a trivial matter. As soon as the flames of war erupted between both sides, the situation was immediately transmitted to surrounding regions, with each powerhouse in Jade Land focusing their attention here.

East of Henry’s Orendale, and northeast of Feiyan City.

This area is called Eagle High Ground, also composed of several noble territories. After Orendale fragmented, the nobles here chose an heir of the Greenst family and elected their own Orendale.

Belonging to William Greenst, also known as William’s Orendale.

At this moment, in the Royal Palace, William was discussing the newly transmitted news with his subordinate nobles—the war between Feiyan City and Henry had begun.

William said: “Gentlemen, the war has already started. According to the information I’ve received, Feiyan City’s army has just penetrated the Sewing Needle Forest and already deep into William’s territory.”

“It seems this time Feiyan City is clearly aiming to destroy the opponent.”

As the words fell, the hall instantly burst into chatter.

“Who told Henry’s side to provoke first, capturing others’ subjects for mining without reason and killing their citizens, having this outcome is deserved.”

“The actions of Feiyan City are indeed quick, in just a few days they’ve reached the Sewing Needle Territory, how did they manage that? Are all the lords and castles along the way incompetent, with defenses being mere facades?”

“Quiet!”

William on the Throne frowned, he wasn’t interested in hearing these trivial topics.

He spoke: “How they fight is their business; the key is, I want to know how we should position ourselves in this war. Should we stand aside, or actively participate? If we engage, who should we support?”

This is equally an unresolved question.

As William’s words fell, the nobles and lords below once again erupted in discussion.

Some suggested staying out of it, watching from a distance.

Others proposed waiting until both sides are exhausted before stepping in to take advantage.

There were also suggestions to support Henry or to take further advantage.

The answers were varied, turning the hall into chaos.

William was increasingly troubled.

Each suggestion had its own logic, making it difficult for him to choose accurately, unsure of what was the right thing to do.

And at this weary moment, a knight hurriedly approached, a knight loyal to William.

The knight whispered in William’s ear: “Your Highness, someone from the Green House has arrived.”

William’s expression shook.

The battles in the Human World can’t truly determine the outcome of wars; what’s decisive…

is largely the Extraordinary Power hidden behind!
