“This is indeed a good thing!” Su Yu’s eyes lit up.

Many skills of the shadow priest are very useful, such as [Mental Theft], [Mind Control], and so on.

Last time at the Giant Skru Base on Lingwu Mountain, he made a great contribution by using the [Mind Control] skill of the priest class.

The only regret is that this fragment is not golden and cannot be brought out of the game.

If there are sufficient [Tina’s Blood] in the future, he could consider gilding it.

Su Yu satisfyingly put the fragment into his backpack.

So far, the 40th quest of the princess line has been completed smoothly.

The following quests from 41st to 44th are roughly divided into two categories:

One is the internal affairs of the Forest City, such as counting casualties, saving lives, requesting help from nearby lords, and carrying out post-disaster reconstruction work in Forest City;

The other is dealing with the imminent threat of the rebel army.

According to the statistics gathered by players, the number of inhabitants in Forest City dropped from 500,000 to 95,000 after the disaster, 80% of the inhabitants lost their lives in the catastrophe.

The large army gathered in Forest City also suffered heavy casualties, with nearly 200,000 of the 500,000 troops being injured or killed in the shockwave.

Moreover, the death of the Grand Marshal of the Empire, Charles Goldfinch, and a group of senior officers drastically reduced the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Army.

The rebel leaders Anzu Seifer and Landilus would naturally not miss such a good opportunity and constantly sent spies to Forest City for information.

After probing the reality of Forest City, they immediately gathered their large army to launch a total attack on Forest City, in hopes of taking the entire city.

By the end of the 44th quest in the princess line, the rebel army of 700,000 had already set out from Goldfinch City, directing its troops towards Forest City.

The morale of the rebel army is running high. The mighty ones who participated in the high-ranking battle of Forest City last time are among the army, making it an invincible force.

On the other hand, the morale of the imperial soldiers is generally quite low, and pessimism is spreading among the military.

The quest has now reached the 45th in the princess line.

In a palace to the west of the city.

This palace is the only one in the city that was not reduced to ruins in the shockwave, now used by Alyssa as the command center of the city.

Inside the grand conference room of the palace, a highest-level military strategy meeting is in session.

Princess Alyssa is sitting at the head of the conference room, looking a bit haggard.

It’s been a half-month since the last high-ranking battle.

During this half month, Alyssa took all military and political affairs of the Empire upon herself, personally attending to every matter, barely pulling the Empire back from the edge.

But what troubles her the most is the impending rebel army.

On the wall of the conference room, there is a huge military deployment map. On the map, the “red” symbolizing the strength of the Empire shrinks into a few big cities like Forest City and Pearl City; while the “blue” symbolizing the strength of the rebel forces not only occupies more than half of the Empire, but also mobilizes a large army marching towards Forest City.

The Empire is now at a life-and-death moment.

The military and political figures of the Empire’s side sit at the conference table in front of the princess, among them the royal magician, Sharon, and three other seventh-rank powerhouses.

Of course, Su Yu is also here, and his position is relatively forward, sitting to the right of the princess.

“Gentlemen.”

After the meeting started, the princess put her crossed fingers to her lips, gazing seriously at those present: “Now that the rebel army has officially started, do any of you have any suggestions? Lucas, you start.”

Lucas is the highest-ranking general in the army. After the fall of Grand Marshal Charles Goldfinch, he took over as the temporary marshal of the empire.

“Your Highness, Princess.” Lucas stood up and bowed slightly to the princess, “My suggestion is still the same — retreat, we lead the troops to retreat to Orleans City. Orleans City is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The narrow mountain roads can block the progress of the rebel army.”

“I think so too.”

“Yes, it’s better to retreat now.”

“Your Highness, Princess, given the current situation in Forest City, we definitely can’t hold it.”

The few generals sitting at the end of the conference table expressed their opinions one after another.

Alyssa’s expression didn’t change. She looked at Su Yu beside her: “Nemesis, what do you think? Should we withdraw our troops and abandon Forest City?”

Hearing Alyssa’s question, Su Yu sat up straight.

He considered for a moment, then cautiously answered: “I agree with the generals’ opinions. I also believe that leading the troops to strategically move to Orleans City is the best choice.”

Upon hearing Su Yu’s words, the generals present collectively sighed in relief.

They knew how substantial Su Yu’s words were to the princess. Basically, Alyssa takes Su Yu’s advice to heart. One word from Su Yu was more effective than their combined ten words.

No wonder they say that the wind from the ‘pillow’ is the scariest, right?

“But–” Su Yu’s tone suddenly raised.

Along with the rise in Su Yu’s tone, the generals’ hearts also shot up.

The generals’ hearts, which had just dropped, were immediately lifted to their throats. All eyes were fixed on Su Yu.

Su Yu’s expression was unchanged, he smiled and said, “We can retreat, but we must think ahead about what to do after the retreat.

We are not heading to Orleans City to hide in a corner, but to ultimately defeat the rebel army, reclaim the territory of the empire, and let the people live a happy and peaceful life.

So during the retreat, we must carefully consider our next move.”

“Nemesis, do you have a good plan in mind?” Alyssa cast an expectant glance at Su Yu.

“Yes.” Su Yu nodded. “I think we need to use new weapons.”

After Su Yu finished speaking, he took out a weapon from his backpack and slapped it on the long table in the conference room.

In an instant, all eyes of the meeting room were on Su Yu’s hand.

This weapon was not a shining blade, but a long object similar to a fire stick.

But upon closer inspection, it wasn’t a fire stick. The front of the weapon wasn’t made of wood, but an iron tube.

If a player were here, they would recognize this weapon at a glance. It’s a flintlock rifle! People from the Blue Star were very familiar with.

But the senior Imperial officers present didn’t recognize it, and many of them cast questioning glances at Su Yu.

Lucas, the oldest officer in the military, seemed to have thought of something and asked, “Is this the Dwarf Kingdom’s rifle? I think I’ve seen it before.”

Su Yu nodded: “Yes, this is a rifle, an upgraded version of the revolver rifle – a flintlock rifle. Currently, my territory can produce this weapon.”

The technology tree of Su Yu’s territory is very strong. As research progresses in the later stages, even [Doomsday Mecha] can be produced. The production of some ordinary guns is naturally no problem.

Now his territory has just been upgraded to the [City] stage, and in terms of military technology, it just got the [Military Science] research, which can mass-produce flintlock rifles. Researching a rifled gun with rifling groove is not far away.

Such a good thing, Su Yu of course intended to take advantage of it, mass produce, export military products, and develop the territory’s characteristic military industry.

Military industry is a lucrative business. By using this as a breakthrough, he could earn a lot of spiritual energy coins from NPC.
