Volume Dragon: Start by obtaining the Infinity Gems

Chapter 215 Kingdom Attack
Heavy rain fell from the sky, soaking the tall jaguar flags and falling on the solid bluestone fortress. The stone slabs had long since become slippery and difficult to climb, so the raindrops meandered down and merged into the rushing Weiman River.

There is a winding river between the Kurtaka Kingdom and the Alliance in the north. Every summer, the Weiman River will rise in water level and the water will be fierce. It is difficult for Kurtaka's supplies to cross this river that runs across the central and northern parts of Niksaran.

But Kurtaka's army had delivered supplies last winter and built an impregnable fortress on the other side of the river - the Weiman River Mouth Fortress.

The estuary fortress was very large, with a wall that reached an astonishing 8 meters. For a temporary fortress, this was considered an advanced construction technology among the Maztecs.

In this pouring rain, the kingdom's large army was practicing martial arts in the military camp outside the fortress.

"Dear General Cunard."

In the heavy rain, a man in military uniform was standing on the city wall watching the army training outside the fortress, when suddenly a call came from behind him.

He turned around and looked quietly at the white-skinned man from another continent wearing gold-rimmed glasses. The man was wrapped in a strange black robe, and his ten fingers under the coat were adorned with gemstone rings of various colors.

"What is it, Mr. Varius?"

The man in black robes bowed his head slightly and said in a humble tone: "General, I used the prophecy spell to find out that everything in the city of Duzulla is obscured by some mysterious existence, but the spell has confirmed that the pyramid of Pankuru has lost its operator and has fallen into silence."

General Cunard nodded slightly upon hearing this and looked towards the canyon looming in the distance and the city of Pankuru, the culprit that had blocked His Majesty's army for three years.

"Are you finally unable to hold on? It seems that what your Majesty said was correct. As long as enough lives are lost, even the Palace of the God of the Sun cannot stop your Majesty's army."

Varius lowered his head slightly to hide the hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

The foolish native rejected my proposal and wanted to use human lives to destroy the power of a magic tower. He suffered such a heavy loss, but he was still complacent.
Thinking back to when I first arrived, I offered my proud prophecy to the indigenous emperor in the hope of helping him conquer the world, but even today it is still not taken seriously.
Varius felt a surge of anger in his heart.

The heavy rain wet his robe. He shook the black robe gently, revealing a corner of the lining. A symbol of a flame with eyes burning on dragon claws was engraved on the inside of the robe.

It will be soon. It won’t be long.

As long as the child is found, everything the Dragon Mother has ordered will be over.

"Gentlemen," Cunard called softly to the army, his voice floating between heaven and earth, so small, yet so loud.

The troops stopped their drill and looked towards their respected general.

"Use your flesh and blood, your life, and everything you have to offer a splendid war to our supreme majesty!"

"Army attack!"
-
In the city of Duzulla, the core area where the pyramid was originally located has been occupied by a huge extra-dimensional portal.

This is the portal summoned by Nemesis using the seven-ring spell [Mage's Mansion]. By stepping into it, the caster can live in an extremely spacious and luxurious manor in another dimension.

Strengthened by the Power Stone, the mansion summoned by Nemesis was incredibly large, covering nearly 10 acres.

"Well, be careful, be careful"

Nemesis carefully carved the White Magic Staff on the table in the laboratory. In order to strengthen the White Magic Staff, he had to adjust the runes, not just inject divinity into it. If he did that, it would only waste such precious materials.

But there was only one White Magic Wand, so he carefully carved it for an hour every day in the best condition and took frequent breaks to ensure that everything was foolproof.

This resulted in a week in which he still hadn't completed the repair.

But now, it is coming to an end.

He estimated that the last bit of work would only take ten hours to complete.

But this stage is also the most dangerous moment, as all the runes have been carved, and he needs to cover the new patterns with magic gem powder for the sacrifice.

This work cannot be stopped and must be completed in one go, which means that Nemesis cannot give up in the next few hours.

But he wanted to complete it quietly, but someone didn't give him the opportunity.

Just as he carefully took out the powder and began to fill in the lines, a soldier suddenly rushed in.

It was Guerrero, who, upon learning that his most beloved general had surrendered to the dragon, expressed his loyalty without hesitation.

"Sir, the general is asking for your help! The Kingdom's army is as swift as the wind, and a force of 150,000 has attacked at night and surrounded the city of Pankuru. The advance troops and our army have joined forces to defend the city and block the city gates, but we are outnumbered and in danger. The canyon has been detonated by the Kingdom's army in some way, causing a landslide. The road from Duzula City to Pankuru City has been blocked, and supplies cannot enter the city."

Hearing this, Nemesis frowned. He had been concentrating on drawing the artifact, but now he was upset by such bad news, so he couldn't help but scold.

"I have already sent my retainer Dironao to Pankulu, and even with the strength of Anleston, we are still no match for the Kingdom's army?"

Long after the mutiny ended, Nemesis summoned the red dragon Dironao and asked him and the army to guard Pankulu on his behalf so that he could forge the artifact with peace of mind.

"My lord, the enemy general is very powerful, and he has the help of an aide who uses strange magic. Lord Dironao and the general are just barely able to fight him, but the kingdom's army is too powerful, and our army is unable to resist," Guerrero said bitterly.

Why don’t you come earlier or later? Why do you come now?
Nemesis paused, but did not stop what he was doing. He sighed and wondered if he had to use the trump card he had just prepared.
But it doesn't matter. The forging of the artifact cannot afford to fail. This is a ray of divinity. If it is wasted here, he will be furious.

"Come out," Nemesis called.

Soon, two bodies walked out of the shadows, and Guerrero was shocked because when he looked closely, he found that they looked exactly like the two men and Nemesis.

"They all have good strength. With their help, it should be enough to delay it for a while. I still need some time to finish." Nemesis said lightly, with a trace of pain in his heart.

These two bodies were created by him using the extremely precious spell he learned from Sefar, the seventh-level illusion spell - [Simulation]!

Not only are they expensive, but each body took him 12 hours of casting spells to create. It can be said that he has poured a lot of effort into it.

Guerrero was a little dazed and said, "This is the doll you made? What can they do?"
