Chapter 1124: The Giants Attack
"The giants are coming!"
This is the first day the mainland appeared in the Underground Cemetery, and the news spread urgently throughout the continent.
Due to the use of the warlock bloodline, which is scarce in this era, for synchronous intelligence transmission across kingdom levels, only the highest priority information would be transmitted immediately.
Warlocks with special communication bloodline magic don't have to do anything in their lifetime. There are plenty of merchants and nobles waving gold to hire them.
They can enter the royal palace if they want, join the merchants' association if they want, and even if they are captured during war, they are treated well, with good food and accommodation. There is absolutely no abuse, and changing sides is always very popular.
After all, they possess the crucial ability of transmitting information for the entire continent, which is much faster than sending messages through carrier pigeons or horse-drawn carriages.
This bloodline used to be very common during the divine era, similar to the profession of a mailman during that time. It was a common bloodline that mages were trained in.
Under the changes of the times, even this originally common bloodline has become highly sought after, indicating how far the human bloodline from the divine era has declined.
Due to the limited information that the modern warlock bloodline power can transmit daily, only in the most significant events will there be a scene where all warlocks across the continent transmit the same information.
The previous battle between the Sia Kingdom Royal Knights and the Empire's First Magic Army Legion, the appearance of the nuclear explosion forbidden spell, and the news of the upcoming establishment of the Holy Silver Dragon Knight Order, were all transmitted as top priority information to the entire continent in this way.
"The giants have advanced to the border of the central mountains!"
On the first day of the Underground Cemetery appearing in the world, signs of what seemed to be a giant sea dragon were discovered on the Leviathan Empire's side, causing tension among all the kings and tribal leaders across the continent.
Compared to the Emerald Sea Dragon Beast that frequently dives into the water, the black iron giant doesn't try to disguise itself at all.
It's not that the black iron giant cannot do it, but rather, it looks down upon doing so.
As one of humanity's most powerful assets during the divine era, the final giants remained hidden in the central mountains for hundreds of years until the last war reached its heated phase and they officially joined the fight.
As giants born from the Earth, as long as they sleep within the mountains, their bodies naturally blend into the landscape, to the point that even magic cannot discern them.
The last giant, because he ate something he shouldn't have, slept through the entire war between giants and dragons. When he woke up, he found that he was the only giant left in the world, and he had grown to be fifty meters tall.
When he was discovered by the golden humans, he learned that the giant clan had been completely wiped out, and he was the last one left. He was filled with anger and immediately joined the human army that was planning to resist the dragons.
In the decisive battle for the continental crown, the last giant sacrificed everything and died a glorious death. This marked the end of the legend of the giant clan.
The next thing that happened was the legend of The King of Undead.
With the passing of the last giant, the soul of the departed princess was infused into the giant's body, giving birth to the mighty "black iron giant."
The black iron giant, born as the ultimate undead weapon on the battlefield of the divine era, not only inherited the unreasonable power of the last giant, surpassing even the dragons, but also possessed the Earth Child's attributes. It no longer had any weaknesses.
It had no vulnerabilities, no weaknesses in its spirit, and could fight endlessly without ever stopping.
Even though the Princess who inherited the powers of the giant somehow believed that The King of Undead was her father, this small flaw didn't affect the combat abilities of the black iron giant.
It seemed that the body of the black iron giant and the Passed Princess were perfectly synchronized. These two beings, with completely different forms of existence, fused together in a completely new way.
Not a dead person, nor a living creature, the ultimate undead weapon, the black iron giant, has surpassed the concept of normal intelligent beings, and can be regarded as a great eternal creation.
When stepping on the ground, there is no such thing as defeat.
For the sake of her father's command, no matter how powerful the opponent may be, Passed Princess will bravely charge forward, this is her fighting style.
Tactics and such, never learned, is it important?
She is not responsible for cutting off the enemy's logistics like the Emerald Sea Dragon Beast, which would interfere with the overall situation.
The warfare skills of the black iron giant are similar to those of the troll clan, descendants of giants.
There's no need to ask what the enemy is, only need to ask where the enemy is, and then charge ahead!
From this point of view, it's hard for anyone to believe that the two races have nothing to do with each other.
However, unlike the giant clan, although the princess herself is also very warlike, more precisely, she fights because of her father, the King of Undead's command, but still maintains the grace and elegance of a princess.
She took a walk while admiring the scenery, playing with the birds, and reminiscing about the past, showcasing the princess's elegant style.
On the same day, the Emerald Sea Dragon Beast, which was carrying out a mission for the Leviathan Empire, engaged in a battle against the Empire's strongest reconnaissance machine, the Yellow Finch, defeating one of the Empire's strongest hero-ranked knights, Ludwig* Shasha, within five minutes, shocking the entire continent.
"The giant has emerged from the central mountains." This simple announcement caused countless sleepless nights and prompted many people to flee the Sia Kingdom overnight.
They trusted that Nuclear Explosion Queen Ain could defeat this monster giant, but it would still be better to keep a distance from these two monsters.
Anyone who had witnessed the remnants of the nuclear explosion forbidden spell felt an innate fear when faced with battles against creatures of this level. This was not a battle for ordinary mortals to witness.
Except for a few fearless intelligence agents, no one dared to approach the black iron giant.
The following day, more news arrived.
"The giant has entered the territory of the Sia Kingdom, and war is about to begin. Once again, we warn you, the war against the giant is imminent."
"Ancient weapons resembling sea dragons have shown their might, defeating numerous knight orders of the Empire. Only three knight orders have managed to withstand the attacks of the enemy's forces."
"Shocking, the truth that you must know is that the owner of the Underground Cemetery is actually..."
"The great mystery of ancient civilizations, what made the bodies that have been silent for thousands of years come to life."
"The King of Undead, he was originally a great hero of our human race, who prevented the hero from resting in peace!"
On the notice tokens of the Empire and Kingdom, astonishing news kept being written, causing countless people to be frightened and discuss incessantly.
The first substantial defeat of the Leviathan Empire, the reappearance of mysterious ancient weapons, and the giants entering the civilized kingdom.
The direction of the times began to evolve towards an unpredictable path.
