Chapter 219

At Laguna City, Jonas looked at the letter which was written in Dwarven language as he asked his men, "Where did you get this letter?"

The officer pointed towards a man as he explained, "I got it from a sailor who sold a bottle along with it, See this was the bottle . I thought this letter was suspicious as it was written in Dwarven language so I bought it here . ahh there, He is one who bought the letter and bottle . "

The sailor smiled as he got quite a good sum by selling the bottle and asked the officer who was his friend, "Did you understand anything from it? Translate it fast . "

The officer shook his head and spoke, "Nah . "

Jonas asked the sailor gravely in a serious tone, "Are you sure you got it from the beach?"

The Sailor nodded and answered as thought, "Yeah, I am pretty sure, it was in eastern seas when I spotted the bottle . So what is in it? Looking at your expression, it looks like you are in tension . Is there something wrong with it?"

After Confirming from the sailor, Jonas without waiting for anyone, he ordered his men and left immediately . "Give him 10 gold coins . He has done great service for us . I will be going for an important meeting with Duke . Cancel all other meetings of mine . You guys don’t need to know the contents of that letter . "

The officer immediately nodded and answered, "Yes, Sir . "

Officer smiled and said to the sailor, "It looks like you hit the jackpot today . "

Sailor scratched his head as he looked at Jonas who was leaving in a hurry, "I wonder what was written in it that he decided to gift me 10 gold coins . "

The officer laughed and spoke, "Who cares, we are partying today . Come, let’s go . "

Duke Fjord had a grave face as he heard Jonas’s report, "No wonder we never heard about the ships traveling north . It seems that crafty count had already planned a lot . And this was the reason why they were unperturbed when the Eastern Port was blocked . "

Jonas nodded as he spoke, "Yes, from my hypothesis, he was already planning about that settlement after he made the ballistas . It looks like the Dwarves are over-exaggerating the power of Ballistas as they saw the power of ballistas belonging to Count John for the first time . "

One of the ministers spoke in a serious tone, "Point of the matter is, they already have access to seas . It would be more serious if that settlement is already connected to North-frontier town . No wonder they decided to retreat previously instead of invading when they were blocked at the eastern port . Our domination at the seas depends on the destruction of that Settlement . "

Jonas smiled and remarked as he read the Journal which was dated just a few days back, "Yes, It seems they have even targeted the Dwarven ships previously as they didn’t want to get exposed previously . I think we can use this to our advantage . From what I know, Dwarves were frustrated after didn’t get to hear anything about their lost ships previously . I have a perfect plan to destroy that settlement . We should inform the Dwarves about the previous raid and take advantage of the matter . "

Duke Fjord nodded as he heard them, "Yes, we can use this to our advantage . Tell the Dwarf ambassador about this immediately . This habit of recording and leaving it in a bottle is good as well . We will start using this from now on in case we face eradication from our enemies . That weapon has fully changed the status quo and equilibrium of this continent’s Political and Military stability and hence the need for changes in the military . "

Everyone agreed and nodded as they heard Fjord’s judgment .

Fjord continued with a cunning smile, "Okay, prepare to attack that settlement . No one can question us if we attack there . We will attack them if the Dwarves move . I think Blake and his men are present at that settlement so it would be dangerous for us if we attack them alone . I guess they are waiting for sometime before they announce about that Port city . We will go with Jonas’s plan, tell the Dwarf ambassador about the current situation . "

At the same time,

Sarah spoke in John’s mind, ["Congratulations to host on successfully completing his goal of establishing a city, 1 . Aurora City and 2 . Winter City, simultaneously . ]

[Ding . Level Upgrade, 50 Million Exp points for establishing Aurora City]

[Ding . 50 Million Exp points for establishing Winter City . ]

[Ding . You will now face onslaughts from the Dwarven Kingdom and the Aelius Kingdom . ]

[Your Next goal is to successfully create a Kingdom that is being recognized by others . ]

John remarked as he heard the sounds of Sarah while he was ordering his men to attack Irwin’s men at the southern castle, "Woah, such a surprise . I guess something happened . "

John smiled as he looked at the signal from Western Castles, "Time to finish this battle . "

There was a complete massacre taking place at the Southern castle as everyone saw a signal from the Western castle .

There was no order among John’s enemies as everyone was scrambling to save their life and run away from the battlefield .

The templars who came near the southern castle faced the assault of bullets and started falling slowly .

There was a look of surprise and anger on the faces of Templars when they faced the guns . The never expected to face such an assault of their enemies without inflicting any damage to their enemies .

A lot of soldiers and knights panicked after watching the horrific power of the cannons and guns .

One of the knights groaned as he had shrapnel stuck in his abdomen as he ran, "Even when fighting against the demons, we never faced such horrific battle power . What are those weapons? Dammit, I hate this pain . Where the hell did they get these weird weapons . "

One of the Lord agreed as he saw the desolate situation of the battlefield and spoke, "Yes I thought, it would be an easier battle . Who knew they were hiding such weapons from everyone’s eyes . The situation is very grave, I guess a big civil war will occur if we fight against these monstrous weapons or the Royal family will have to take this lying down . I guess a lot of people are waiting on the sidelines to stike when we are down . "

Irwin clearly watched how Johnson had died as left a rune in the sky .

He was continuously moving as he ordered his men, "Leave immediately . We are regrouping at the battle camp . "

Irwin looked back at John’s face who was smiling as if he was a hunter going for a hunt . He saw that John had intended to chase them so he reissued his orders, "No, we are leaving Dolores’s borders . That guy is out for blood . They likely won’t chase us there as they aren’t prepared for invasion . That fucker will pay for his insolence, now that he has killed Johnson and dared to secede he should be prepared for the consequences . I hope Defense Minister Plato don’t get angry on me . "

John smiled and ordered his men, "Tell the men to get ready and prepare their guns, Arlen, you will be in charge of this castle when I am gone . Try sniping the commanders so that their will crumbles more easily . Today, everyone will witness history . "

Arlen nodded as he prepared his sniper and left to give orders to his men .

Irwin too was shocked by watching the powers of the rifles . He was taken back as he looked at the gruesome death of Templars who were being chased by Count John’s men . He remarked as he looked at the horrific fate of the crazed Templars, "Damn, what are these things that are claiming the lives of all the soldiers in the battlefield one by one . How much of their Battle power have they hidden? We need to escape immediately . Tell everyone to escape in different directions . This way our survival rate would be better . "

Irwin’s subordinate spoke after hearing Irwin, "Yes, Sir . "

At this moment only some Templars were able to escape while John’s army was chasing Irwin’s army one by one .

Irwin frustratingly remarked as he saw the massacre which took place, "Dammit, this will be a very big blow to us no matter whether we win or lose this war . We have already sustained enough losses . We need the Magician squads to deal with these weapons . "
