Volume 4: The Cataclysm Chapter 132 Chaos

The strength of this demon team is not very strong, it is almost at the second level.

Their leader, the horned demon, was also at the early third level.

Judging from their condition, they must have suffered losses during the attack on the royal city. I don't know why they appear here.

Marvin was too lazy to care about these things.

Naturally, he doesn't need to do anything with these small characters himself.

Then, under the horrified gaze of the refugees, a black shadow leaped out from the void and passed by every demon like autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves.

The Grip of Cold Light is a waste of talent to kill these demons.

In just 1.5 seconds, all the demon heads fell off, and Isabel stood calmly in front of everyone.

Everyone was stunned.

It took a full five seconds before someone reacted. They immediately knelt down and loudly thanked her for saving their lives.

The corners of Isabel's mouth twitched slightly, and it was obvious that she wasn't very good at dealing with this kind of thing.

Fortunately, at this time, Marvin finally walked slowly from the other side of the avenue.

"Who are you?"

He asked.

Some of the refugees bravely stood up .

"We are going to the royal city to seek refuge."

"The Grand Duke has issued a new order. Everyone in the Principality must gather in the capital..."

"I heard that the demon army has been repelled, but we were unlucky and encountered some on the road. Thank you for your help."

They also realized that Marvin and Isabel were not ordinary people.

Marvin lowered his head. They looked at the young man and felt that he looked familiar, but they couldn't recognize him for a while.

"In that case, please follow us."

Anyway, this place is not far from the royal capital, so Marvin doesn't mind slowing down for a while.

The refugees were grateful.

They followed Marvin and Isabel, packed up, and quickened their pace toward the royal capital.

We learned from the refugees that the bloody battle in the royal capital that had lasted for five days finally came to an end yesterday evening.

The encouraging news is that Lady Daniela has personally closed the gates of the Abyss, and most of the demons have been driven out.

Only a few are still roaming within the principality.

However, the bad news is that the national strength of Lavis is unprecedentedly weak. In addition to the demons, there are some malicious forces around.

Of course, the invasion of those demonized wizards must also be taken into consideration, so the Grand Duke’s new order is to comprehensively shrink the territory.

Placing most people in the royal capital and its surrounding areas will preserve strength to the greatest extent possible.

This decision is undoubtedly the right one.

Ravis had no shortage of food. The Grand Duke was very far-sighted. He had already begun to stockpile food a year before the Great Cataclysm—before Marvin came . His move at the time made the neighboring countries nervous, thinking it was a sign of launching a war of expansion, but they later relaxed. Apart from purchasing food, the people of Ravis did not take any follow-up actions.

Looking back now, the move was undoubtedly a wise one.

After the catastrophe, crops became difficult to grow and food became almost the most precious hard currency.

In many places, people would fight for a piece of bread.

And a bag of wheat flour is enough to make some small forces go out in full force.

…

"It seems that Lavis is lucky. After getting through the initial difficulties, it will be a good time for rapid development."

Marvin thought silently in his heart.

The North is very vast. As long as Daniela manages it slowly like she did in her previous life, Lavis will definitely develop into a very terrifying country.

After the wizard camp suffered a complete bloodbath, the warlocks, who are also spellcasters, ushered in their spring.

They replaced the wizards and became a new type of nobles. In the future map of Marvin's memory, at least a quarter of the territory in the North belonged to Lavis.

But at that time, Lavis was no longer a principality, but a real kingdom!

Like Stone Mountain, the warlocks of Lavis are a very powerful force and worth making friends with.

As Marvin was thinking this, the outline of the royal capital's wall appeared in front of him.

The refugees suddenly became excited.

When you see the city wall, you see the hope of survival.

Some people even cried quietly.

…

On the cold city walls, guards were stationed heavily.

Although it is early spring, the royal city built on the snow-capped mountains is still so cold.

The warlock on duty was wrapped in a black robe, staring grimly at the refugees who were gathering under the city wall.

He felt an inexplicable irritation in his heart.

"This bunch of rubbish, all they do is cry for their parents all day long!"

"The Grand Duke's conscription order is not aimed at useless people like them. The young and strong ones are fine, but what can these old, weak and sick people do?"

He muttered something, and the clerk beside him showed a trace of pity.

"Lord Juster, the Duchess's order..."

The warlock was immediately furious: "Duke? Who gave her the title?"

"The Council of Elders has not made a final decision yet! That woman is only temporarily responsible for handling some simple government affairs. My job is city defense, and I have the right to handle it at my discretion!"

The clerk immediately became timid and didn't dare to say more.

A trace of sadness flashed across his face.

Even after experiencing the baptism of the demon army, there is still no peace in the royal capital.

Poor refugees, they had clearly received the Grand Duke's order, but because of Juster's decision, they could only wander outside the city.

Juster believed that most of them would only be a burden to the royal city. Only young and strong men were allowed to enter the city, and the rest were sent away to fend for themselves nearby .

This practice has been implemented since this morning. In fact, because the war has just ended, the capital is in great chaos, and the city defense duties were temporarily transferred.

The clerk knew that Juster was Lord Turalyon's man and had always been very disgusted with Daniela's return.

Daniela stayed in the White River Valley for a long time, and was said to be engaged to Marvin of the White River Valley. In the eyes of many people, it was impossible for her to succeed the Grand Duke. So during that time, at least 70% of the power in the entire capital was controlled by Turalyon.

Including the Lord Juster in front of him, a fourth-level warlock, he also made great contributions when the demon army attacked the city, so he was given the position of city defense.

But regarding the Grand Duke's new order, he executed it in another way.

The clerk could only shake his head silently.

At this moment, a guard ran up from below:

"Sir, a new batch of refugees will soon arrive at the city. Among them is a militia guard!"

Just showed a satisfied look:

"Okay, let's go and take a look. If they are militia, we can train them and eliminate the useless ones among them."

…

At the same time, Marvin and others, with the group of refugees, slowly approached the city wall of the royal capital.

But what was surprising was that there were quite a few refugees gathered in groups of three or five under the city wall.

They looked worried, not knowing what had happened.

"What's going on?"

Ma Wen's heart moved.
