Chapter 615: The Fall of the Derek Marquis Family
As for Andy and Felix, after arranging the people who followed them back, they quietly returned to Roland City, the base of the Cavendish family, under the protection of the lich Ross!
Originally, Andy and Felix thought that as long as they returned to Roland City and let Farai's substitute prepare the supplies they needed for their retreat, they would be able to enter the secret realm and start a new round of practice!
But who would have known that the stand-in who handled government affairs on behalf of big brother Farai, after learning the news that Andy and Felix had returned, ran directly to the place where Andy and Felix were resting, and told Andy something relatively serious that might very well expose the family's strength!
Originally, with the strength of the Marquis Derek's family, it would have been no problem for them to suppress the space nodes within their territory on their own, not to mention that the Elfa Empire had also sent a large army to station in the territory of the Marquis Derek's family to help the Marquis Derek's family suppress the space nodes here!
Everything had been fine for so many years, and the space node of Earl Derek's territory had been suppressed there. But who knew that suddenly, thirteen legendary-level, three hundred and fifty-six legendary-level, one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three diamond-level, six thousand five hundred and thirty-four gold-level, and a large number of abyss demons below the gold level emerged from that space node!
For a moment, even though the strength of the Abyss Demons would be suppressed by the world's will after entering the Irish Card Continent, it was still an irresistible force for the Earl family like the Derek family, whose highest combat power was only the legendary three-star level!
It was precisely because of the loss of defense that, for a time, the territory of Earl Derek's family was turned upside down by these abyss demons, and the civilians in the territory were chased by the abyss demons and fled everywhere. A very small number of lucky civilians might be able to escape from the Marquis Derek's territory, but the vast majority of civilians were basically turned into nutrients for the growth of the abyss demons' strength!
Fortunately, the space node of the Marquis Derek's family is very close to the Cavendish family, but compared with the surrounding major forces, it is still quite far away. In addition, the demons are now focusing their main energy on conquering the Marquis Derek's territory and want to completely occupy the Marquisate. Otherwise, the defense line set up at the border between the Cavendish family and the Marquis Derek family may not be able to be defended under the impact of the abyss demons!
In addition, although the strength of the abyss demons is enough to crush the Marquis Derek family, the patriarch of the Marquis Derek family and the hidden elders of the family are clear about the mission given to their family by the Elfa Empire!
Now that the situation has deteriorated to such a point, the family of Marquis Derek is powerless to recover, and the royal family of the Elfa Empire will not say anything about it!
However, if they choose to evacuate from the Marquisate as soon as possible, allowing the power of the Abyss Demon to extend unimpeded from that spatial node within a radius of more than ten kilometers to the entire Marquisate, and even the surrounding noble territories, then the Marquis Derek family will definitely be punished by the royal family. Even after killing the Abyss Demon that invaded the Marquis Derek's territory, the Marquis Derek family may have to compensate the losses of the surrounding nobles!
In order to reduce or even avoid punishment from the Elfa royal family, the Derek Marquis family can only choose to preserve the family's combat effectiveness while resisting the abyss demons as much as possible, so as to let everyone see the Derek family's determination to resist the abyss demons!
In the future, if the surrounding nobles want to blackmail, the Alpha royal family will want to punish them based on the contribution the Derek family has made in resisting the abyss demons, and slightly reduce the punishment and the compensation!
After learning what happened in Marquis Derek's territory and knowing the number and strength of the abyss demons, the nobles around the territory of Marquis Derek's family immediately extended a helping hand, wanting to suppress all the abyss demons in Marquis Derek's territory. They did not want the abyss demons to enter their territory at all!
