Chapter 522 Unaware of Fate
Enemy attack?!
How is that possible!
Chris, who had originally wanted to show off his victory, had now completely lost his desire.
He turned his head and looked in the direction of the bugle call.
That was the city gate they had breached.
In other words, the enemy came to their rear.
Could there have been an army lying in ambush behind him all along?
How could that be!
Despite the cover of the blizzard, Chris's actions were entirely impromptu; no one could have predicted them in advance or laid an ambush.
Besides, if they had indeed laid an ambush beforehand, why would they have waited until now?
During the siege, they attacked from the rear, joining forces with the soldiers inside the city to encircle the city. Even if Chris's wizard troops were incredibly powerful, they would likely struggle to withstand the attack.
Once Chris enters the city, he can defend the city and put the enemy at a disadvantage.
Therefore, it could only be troops that had just arrived as reinforcements.
But the nearest town is several miles away from Heddy Square.
If they couldn't adapt to marching in blizzards, how could they have gotten here so quickly?
Unless they arrived to reinforce during Chris's first siege, they are now belatedly arriving.
But no matter what, this enemy attack was far too sudden.
Chris said to Moody, "Go check what's going on!"
Moody nodded upon hearing this and immediately flew off.
Chris, who remained where he was, couldn't help but click his tongue. In this situation, the prisoners in front of him would probably start mocking him.
But when he looked at these people, he found that they also had a confused look in their eyes.
Huh? What's going on? Don't they know the situation either?
If this attack also caught the enemy off guard, it means that this was not part of their plan.
Could it be that the attackers were not their own people?
Based on these clues, Chris quickly realized that this might be reinforcements from the northern community.
But this is also unlikely.
To the west of Hedy Square lies a large area of land belonging to an oriental community.
Next is the territory of the Chris Central Community, and further west lies the territory of the Northern Community.
To prevent the two armies from joining forces, Chris deliberately deployed a large number of troops to guard the central area.
And Ainar himself is a regular there.
It wouldn't be so easy for the enemy to get through, especially under such a strong blizzard.
Moreover, based on Chris's understanding of Enal, he would definitely try his best to bring the information to Chris if anything unexpected happened.
If the enemy could completely intercept even intelligence, it would be enough to utterly destroy the military power of the central community.
Even though Chris knew that the enemy also had a wizard corps, which, although smaller than Chris's wizard army, was exceptionally powerful and had once forced Enal into a series of defeats.
Even so, they were not completely powerless to resist.
Note: —Are they not from the Northern community either?
What happened?
The changing timbre of the bugle call indicates that a battle is taking place.
Indeed, they are the enemy—Chris frowned, feeling extremely uneasy.
Fortunately, there's no need to guess; Moody has returned.
Chris asked anxiously, "What happened?"
"Elder, that was—" Moody stammered, "...a rebellion."
"rebel?!"
Chris screamed in surprise; he hadn't expected this at all.
“Yes,” Moody said. “I met General Kovick, who had been killed by his men. He begged me to save him, but he was practically hanging from a tree. I agreed to save him anyway, just to find out what was going on. That’s what he told me.”
"What did he say?" Chris pressed.
"The rebellion spread from his troops. At first, there were only complaints, but General Kovik decisively killed those who undermined morale."
"He did the right thing!" Chris nodded.
"Although I hate it, it's true that war is not child's play," Moody said. "He said it was a skinny young man whose left cheek was frostbitten and who hadn't eaten properly for several days."
"Wait, you said there wasn't enough food?" Chris interrupted.
"Elder, your food is specially supplied, but in reality, due to the impact of the blizzard, our logistics are very slow. A large number of sled dogs, moose, and icy horses have died in the extreme weather, so the transport of heavy provisions is slow and the soldiers can only eat the meat of dead animals."
What a greedy bunch: "For me, having a piece of bread was happiness, and meat was a luxury. They really don't know how to appreciate it."
"Meat was reserved for generals; lower-ranking officers were only given bones. As for the soldiers, they only received a thin soup with sawdust added. They couldn't even get a proper meal, yet they were forced to take alchemical drugs—"
"Without those magical medicines, they would all have died in the blizzard!" Chris roared.
"I know the situation, and I know your wisdom and military genius, but according to General Kovik, this is the truth."
"But they clearly won," Chris said, utterly bewildered. "Why did they rebel at this time?"
"By harming their own people, you shattered their last psychological defenses. Elder, you seem to have forgotten that your soldiers were originally civilians from the Eastern Community. It was your magic potion that transformed them into elite warriors—"
Chris was speechless, and then the sound of horns drew near.
And it rises and falls on the left!
right!
"Hoo-hoo~"
"Hoo-hoo~"
Moody said, "This is an order to attack! Grelala—Elder, the rebellion is escalating, the situation is very bad—"
"Hahaha—" the enemy general who had spat on Chris earlier laughed loudly, "You've reaped what you sowed!"
But Chris didn't have time to deal with him right now; he had to figure out a way to deal with the situation immediately.
Damn it!
hateful!
Chris gritted his teeth in resentment.
I had calculated everything perfectly and breached the seemingly impregnable city!
Unexpectedly, the final problem turned out to be with those consumables!
But----
If Chris really does fail—
These troops will truly have a significant impact on his fate —
The rebel forces were closing in on Chris's location, and he immediately activated his perspective of destiny.
From that perspective, the energy emanating from each person is almost transparent.
In other words, their influence was insufficient to affect Chris's fate.
But if that's the case, why would his hard-won victory be lost because of this?
Whether or not he could take over Hedy Plaza was indeed a turning point in his fate.
What on earth is going on?!
Just then, a thought suddenly flashed through Chris's mind.
The blizzard whipped the cold into his collar, making him shiver uncontrollably.
So that's how it is —
No one could influence Chris; no one was in charge of this rebellion.
This was a rebellion that everyone knew about but no one else was in charge.
What plunged Chris into this cycle of fate was the collective anger!
Fate is either cyclical or ascending!
Damn it!
What should we do now?
Looking at the angry crowd that had already attacked them, and seeing people constantly defecting—
Chris had never been so flustered since becoming a veteran of the Central Community and then king.
Hurry! Think of a solution quickly!
Chris slapped his head!
I'm a genius! I'm sure I can handle this emergency!
However, Chris's mind was completely blank—
A sense of despair spread rapidly through his soul.
"Elders!"
Moody's sudden shout interrupted him.
Chris snapped impatiently, "What are you doing!"
"The rebels seem to have stopped advancing—"
Chris was startled by what he heard and immediately looked up.
As expected, the angry soldiers did not continue to approach.
Instead, they all turned back and retreated.
It was as if something else appeared behind them—
