Everyone loves beauty, not to mention that these Pegasus knights have indeed made a lot of sacrifices, and it was not easy for Enlucius to say anything reproachful to Tuttle who showed sadness. They are still relatively young, and when they recover from this grief, they will be able to grow into mature soldiers. The more than 50 Pegasus knights Marigit brought this time were all girls who had just graduated from the academy's novice training camp. Before this, they had never experienced the intersection of life and death, the death of acquaintances, and the coldness of the battlefield. . As a relatively strict instructor and practitioner in the academy, Marigit thought that she would bring some girls to the ancient city to get acquainted with the atmosphere of the following battlefield. She thought that this was just a simple offensive and defensive battle for a small border psychological expectation is that among these novices, at most two to three Pegasus knights will be lost, and the remaining ones will grow through the death of their companions, thus improving their survival rate in the more intense war to come. But Marigit did not expect that she would die on the battlefield, so she could only say that things are unpredictable. "According to Pegasus Knight's speculation, there may be a legendary mage in Duogu City who can release long-distance precise single-target strikes and is good at using lightning spells, or a one-time consumption of magic scrolls. At the same time, there are no troops in Duogu City, and it seems that the Charles Empire is not No troops were sent to garrison? I personally have doubts about whether the Charles Empire has friendly diplomacy with this mysterious force." "To sum up, I would like to ask His Highness, the Second Prince, to punish me for my hardships on the frontline battlefield. I, Enlucius Wilhelm, am willing to bear all the losses and responsibilities for this battle." Immediately after writing his name on the signature, Enlucius exhaled heavily. As long as His Highness the Second Prince puts all the defeats in the battle on his own head and allows himself to accept all the the bastards in the House of Representatives in the country have nothing to say, they will only involve each other for the new frontline combat command is the last thing I can do for you, Your Highness. When Enlucius goes back this time, he will definitely be able to keep his noble title, but his title will definitely be followed was that the family would be bitten by other eager wolves and leopards. At least while he was still alive, the Wilhelm family would not be able to make any political or military progress.
Of course, there is no need to worry about the food, clothing, housing and transportation of your wife and advantage of His Highness Noel, the second prince, is that he treats those who are loyal to him very favorably. There is no need to worry about is an ambitious prince, and even Enlucius, who is pretending, can only choose to believe in the second prince. If a person who thinks about revenge against society has pretended to be a good person all his life and has not done any bad things, then he is a good person. A gentleman's deeds have no regard for his heart. At least so far, the second prince is the good guy. Enlucius gently and carefully rolled the battle report in his hand into a roll and put it into a red metal tube filled with magic moment you close the lid, the lines of the tube body and the tube lid merge with each someone who does not know the magic code forcibly opens the metal tube, the paper inside will be forcibly destroyed. "It's up to you and those Pegasus knights to deliver the message back home, Captain Goethe." Enlucius put the metal pipe into a larger white metal pipe and handed it to Captain Goethe after confirming it was correct. The Holy Armor soldiers were all wiped out, and Goethe, as the polished commander, naturally would not continue to stay on the front needs to return home to recuperate and at the same time replenish his team members or be directly incorporated into the team of other holy armor happened that the Pegasus knights would also return home for repairs, so the Pegasus knights took Captain Goethe, who was seriously injured, back to the country and sent back the battle reports from the front line. Captain Goethe nodded solemnly. He stood up and took the white metal pipe. He walked out of the headquarters tent and went back to his residence to pack his things. When walking out of the tent, a soldier from the logistics battalion rushed in in a panic and almost bumped into Goethe. But even if he suffered physical trauma, Goethe would not be hit by a mere stretched out his hand and put it on the soldier's chest, which stopped him. "Why are you so panicked? Don't you know how to report it in advance?" Goethe scolded. That soldier was the young soldier from the logistics battalion who witnessed his companion being penetrated by the cursed thorns. He looked frightened and spoke incoherently to Captain Goethe and stammered: "Dead... a dead person, logistics..." "Bang!" Captain Goethe was already in a bad mood. When he saw the soldier's useless look, he became furious and smacked him in the face with his big butt bag. The force was so strong that the soldier fell to the ground. "Straighten your tongue before you speak! Who is your superior? Didn't they teach you how to talk to your superior?" Goethe kicked the soldier's leg again, and the pulling action caused the wound on his body to partially crack, and blood stains emerged from the bandage. It oozed out, and Goethe grimaced in pain. The soldier was a little dizzy after being spanked by a big dick, but the look of panic no longer appeared on his few blows Captain Goethe gave him reminded him of the daily cordial greetings from the instructors at the military school. He quickly got up from the ground and said: "Sir, a soldier died in the logistics camp. The reason is that the captured On top of the enemy's weapons!" "Captain Goethe, you go back and rest first. I will question him personally and let him come in to talk." Onlusius's voice came from inside, and he could naturally hear the commotion at the just thought it was a trivial matter and didn't intend to pay attention to it at first, but when I heard that it was related to the enemy fighting today, I immediately became aware of it. Captain Goethe nodded, walked behind the soldier and found that he was still in a daze, and a fire suddenly emerged from the bottom of his kicked the soldier, leaving a shoe mark on his butt, and at the same time scolded him: "The commander-in-chief asked you to go in. Why are you standing there blowing air?" The soldier was kicked and staggered, rolling and crawling into the rubbed his butt with the pain on his face, turned around and found that Goethe had walked away. "Hmm." Enlucius coughed, called the soldier's attention to him, and then asked: "Tell me, soldier. What happened to the captured weapons?" The soldier saw the commander-in-chief uniform on Lucius and realized the identity of the man in front of him. He said excitedly: "Yes!"
Then he organized his speech and reported: "This afternoon the logistics camp received a batch of seized weapons. My companion who was responsible for transporting the weapons did not know what restriction was triggered and was killed on the spot." , he couldn't help but shudder, and the terrifying appearance of his companion before his death was still in his mind for a long time. "Has it been reported to the evaluators?" Enlucius asked. The soldier nodded repeatedly: "I've reported it, but the appraisers can't determine what restraint killed him. Now they have sealed all the weapons and the corpses of the killed soldiers, and then let me report it." .” Enlucius nodded: "Well, you all did a good job. Tell me the names of the fallen soldiers, and they will be sent back to the country together with the soldiers who died today." At the same time, a group of uninvited guests arrived in the army of Charles' empire. The crowd wearing dark black and scarlet armor walked silently into the camp of Charles's imperial army. Instead, a white cross floated on the black cloak behind the armor. The soldiers who were keeping watch at night did not realize that someone was touching the vicinity of the camp until this group of people took the initiative to appear in the light of the campfire. "Inquisition Cleanup Force Huxley." The leader wearing a cross-decorated religious helmet took out a parchment scroll and a golden cross from his arms, raised his hand and announced his name to the soldiers who were looking at them. But he didn't say his purpose. The soldiers on guard immediately opened the city gate after seeing these two things and did not dare to say anything. Everyone who grew up in the Charles Empire would say this when their parents frightened themselves who refused to sleep when they were young: "If you don't sleep, black and red messengers will take you away from home and eat you!" They are the sharp blades of the Inquisition, killing the devils and demons that quietly appear in the group of madmen who can't help but start killing as long as they have the evidence. As long as they appear, people will definitely die, whether they are civilians, nobles or royal families. "Creak!" The camp gate slowly opened with an ear-piercing people of the cleaning force continued to walk into the camp in silence. Although they were wearing heavy armor, they didn't make a single sound as they walked. From time to time, soldiers who had not gone to bed or had woken up for the night came out of the no matter what they originally wanted to do, after seeing these red and black cleanup troops, without exception, they all shrank into their tents with changed expressions and did not dare to come the same time, they also grabbed their companions who were curious and wanted to go out to find out, and told them who was coming outside. The companions who knew the truth kept silent and stayed in the tent honestly after learning that there were people coming from outside. Soon, the Inquisition's clean-up troops arrived in front of the old general Slit's tent. At this time, the tent was brightly lit, and Slit was still reading a book on , the guard at the door had noticed the clean-up troops a long time ago. He did not show any prestige of the clean-up troops and blocked them from entering with the long spear in his hand. Huxley's footsteps paused, and at the same time, all the people cleaning up the troops behind him stopped at the same time. "Please tell me that Inquisition Huxley has important matters to discuss with the general." Huxley glanced at the guard who was loyal to his duty, and took out the parchment and golden cross that he had shown at the gate before and prepared to hand them over. past. Slit's old but spirited voice came directly over: "No need, although your clean-up troops didn't make any noise, the noise made by the group of brats under my men almost made my ears deafen. Directly. Come in, Lord Huxley." After the guard heard his general's voice, he took back his spear. "Wait for me at the door." Huxley ordered the person behind him, then turned around and the guard saluted politely, then opened the tent and walked in. The guard looked at the chaotic Inquisition cleaning troops in front of the tent, his Adam's apple rolled and he swallowed. However, the people in the Tribunal just stood there quietly waiting for their captain to finish discussing important matters, without even looking elsewhere. Only the white cross on the black cloak fluttered in the evening breeze. Chapter 53: The general offensive of Charles’s empire is about to begin "Tell me, what brought your trial court here?" Slit closed the book in his hand and said with a tired look. It was already getting late at night, and he had planned to read two more pages of the military book before going to rest. Huxley did not mince words and answered directly: "The Inquisition has received reliable information that there is a heretic hosted by a demon in the ancient city. We are ordered to come and kill this evil creature." Slit raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and the sleepiness in his eyes disappeared. He leaned forward slightly and asked, "Whose news is so sure?"
"..." Huxley lowered his head and did not answer the old general's question, but remained silent. Slit didn't care either. He retracted his body into the chair, yawned and said, "I can guess it even if you don't tell me. It should be the information provided by Lu Yi Stacey, the hostess of the Lulan Chamber of Commerce." Bar?" Huxley still lowered his head and his facial expression remained unchanged, making it impossible to tell his inner thoughts. Slit smiled slightly: "You don't have to pretend to be silent here. This time the Charles Empire mobilized so many people, Ms. Lu Yi provided a lot of funds and food behind the scenes. Before I went on the expedition, she also passed my My useless grandson found me and had a conversation with me. He only asked me to kill one person, and that person’s name is Roland. Am I right?” After hearing the name "Roland", Huxley raised his head and looked at Slit. After a while, he uttered two words, acknowledging the old general's statement: "That's right." "Ms. Lu Yi's statement is that Roland colluded with the Holy Empire of France in the ancient city. But I know that the person who can make that shrewd woman care so much is not so simple, so I sent someone to investigate Roland's name." Li Te took the slightly cold tea on the table, took a sip and continued: "And luckily, my people found some information about this person. When your Tribunal annexed one of the small countries in the Charles Empire, I once went to that country and also executed a man named Roland, and that man happened to be the first president of the Lulan Chamber of Commerce." Huxley replied indifferently: "To be able to send someone to read the files within the Tribunal without permission, General, your connections are indeed greater than I thought." "Oh, I've just lived a long time, so I know a lot of people. You don't need to remind me. Go back and tell the people in charge of the Tribunal. If you want to investigate this matter, just come to my house to find me. No need to search. Other people's troubles." Slit took the responsibility on himself without changing his expression: "Let's go on to say that after Ms. Lu Yi was executed in Roland, she eventually took over the Lulan Chamber of Commerce and eventually became a member of the upper echelon of Charles's empire. The ranks of the nobility.” "According to records, the Tribunal determined that Roland was possessed by a demon at the level of the King of Hell based on the testimony. The body was divided into six parts and kept in the sealing room of the Tribunal. Now nearly 30 years have passed, Ms. Lu Yi Suddenly I was reminded of Roland in the ancient city..." Slit smiled, "Are you trying to say that he ran away from the sealing room of your trial court?" Huxley didn't say much, just shook his head slightly. "Forget it, I actually have no interest in the shady dealings between your Inquisition and those businessmen. It's just killing a mere civilian, and there is no loss for me." Slit saw Huxley's expression Silence was the sign of gold, and the nature of the conversation suddenly disappeared: "Let's make a long story short. As a condition for accepting Ms. Lu Yi's funding, I promised her to cooperate with you unconditionally. Tell me, what do you need us to do?" Huxley then spoke: "Tomorrow night, we will enter Dogu City at night to find the man named Roland. I hope that the general will cooperate with us and conduct cover operations." "Of course I have portraits. But with so many people in Duogu City, I have confidence in the strength of your cleanup troops. But even with portraits, it's difficult to find just one person. Could it be that you can have more people and more troops than I have?" Is it easy to search for a person?" Slit asked casually. Huxley replied subconsciously: "Old General, don't worry about us, because there is an army of unknown forces in Dogu City currently commanded by Roland..." Then halfway through the sentence, he realized that he had spilled the beans, and looked at him with cold eyes. Slit. The old general was not afraid of his eyes at all, he laughed and said: "You said this yourself." Then Slit's face turned cold, his eyes looked at Huxley, but he actually cursed Lu Yi, who was not here: "Sure enough, the businessman can't believe it at all, that damn woman didn't tell me about this at all. Does she know? Because we were not told this information, we lost so many outstanding soldiers." Yes, Lu Yi did not choose to tell General Slit all the information she knew. After Elizabeth told her that there was a special army at Roland's side, the businessman's calculating nature began to trouble him again. As the person Roland once trusted the most, Lu Yi knew how many ideas Roland had in his mind that surprised Lulan Chamber of Commerce was first established, Luo Lan provided ideas and Lu Yilai was responsible for turning these ideas into something that could make after Lu Yi heard the news about Roland, he calmed down after a moment of panic and began to think about the "special army" Elizabeth mentioned. She had heard some ideas about army construction from Roland, but unfortunately at that time they were not qualified to form their own personal armed forces and could only choose the employment system. Now, the long-dormant memories of Roland in Lu Yi's mind began to come out one by felt that she would not be afraid of Roland. After all, he was executed by the Inquisition last time and his body was divided into six parts and sealed for long as you tell the madmen in the Inquisition's cleanup team that the demon they once destroyed has resurrected, these mad dogs will kill Roland at any cost like gangrene. At that time, she only needs to copy and collect all Roland's things like last time, especially this time Roland has developed military long as she can consume and absorb, she will also have a share of the military side of Charles' is a huge opportunity for the Lulan Chamber of Commerce, which has reached a development bottleneck. Lu Yi expected that the Inquisition would go to General Slit for help. After all, even the most crazy troops would still make such a choice that could facilitate the mission and reduce their own personnel losses as much as the fact that Huxley was caught out by Slit without checking for a moment still didn't occur to her. Huxley was still not very good at communicating with others, and Slit didn't take any effort to follow him. He got the information he wanted from his mouth. Huxley ignored Slit's scolding of Lu Yi, firstly because Lu Yi himself was not a member of their court, but only provided a , because he knew that he would make mistakes if he said too much, so he simply watched Slit perform there. After a while, Slit saw that Huxley had no reaction and felt that it was not took a sip of the cold tea in the cup and said calmly to Huxley: "I can't agree to what you said." After hearing this, Huxley was not angry, but asked calmly: "What's the reason?" Because he understood that as the most prestigious general in the Charles Empire, Slit was not a man who refused to do something just based on his personal likes and said that he couldn't agree because there were reasons that he didn't know. "The reason is simple. The enemy has two alchemy colossi with very powerful long-range strikes, and two strong men who are at least legendary level. I know that you are a promising rising star in the Tribunal, but you can face it alone. The two legendary strong men still look down on others too much." Slit told Huxley the news he knew today.
He didn't care what purpose or conspiracy Huxley had behind him, he just needed to know that Huxley could help him attack Xiaduogu for the rest, hey, after occupying many ancient cities, he will then settle the accounts with some people in the country. Huxley frowned slightly and said: "Just two legendary strongmen and two alchemy colossi cannot stop you, General. In addition, our Tribunal's methods can win you even if you pay a certain price. General, please explain." Slit snorted coldly and said: "So you don't know how to lead troops to fight at all. Let me ask you, including my 2W army and your Inquisition, how many people will be lost if we eat the two legends from Duogu City?" "Based on past records of fighting against legendary powerhouses, there will be about 6000 losses. If the enemy is a legend who is good at large-scale magic damage, then this number will be about double." Huxley said without thinking. replied. Slit nodded: "Okay, let's calculate it based on the loss of 12000 people. Now my army has lost more than 2000 people this afternoon, and there are still more than 17000 left. Excluding the attack on Duogu City, I still have less than 5000 left. Huxley, tell me, how can these 5000 men defend the next attack by the Holy Empire of France? Or will the people you bring help me defend the city? Do I want to use all these soldiers to fight against France? In the war of attrition of the Reims Holy Empire, it is not to be stuffed into the meat grinder of the operation to annihilate the legendary strong man!" "..." Huxley frowned. He really had not considered this issue. The purpose of cleaning up the troops was just to kill Roland. Whether Duogu City could be defended or not was not at all a consideration for him. "Three days." Slit then began to plan Huxley's thoughts. He stretched out three fingers and said: "I only need Mr. Huxley to wait for me for three days. In the evening after three days, I will You will command the army to launch an attack. Once the war begins, you will take your cleanup troops to carry out your mission. Otherwise, I cannot agree to your request!" Huxley made some calculations in his mind. Three days was neither long nor short, so it was natural for him to agree. So he nodded and agreed to Slit's request, but Huxley couldn't help frowning and asked: "Why must it wait three days?" "I'm waiting for 'Heart of Fire' Necott." Slit said a name calmly, which seemed to have a magical power, making Huxley's eyes shrink. "Heart of Fire" Necott, a young dragon knight born in the Charles Empire five years ago, is also one of the most active dragon knights in the country in the past few the trial on Dragon Island, he conquered a fire-attributed giant dragon with legendary strength with his outstanding personal strength and charm. If Huxley is a rising star in the Tribunal, then Necott is the rising star of Charles' empire. star. "I understand. Since the old general made his own arrangements, the Inquisition will naturally wait for a while. I offend him by disturbing the general so late. I hope the general will forgive him." Huxley nodded, then stood up and walked out of the tent. Slit stopped him: "Do you, the Inquisition Cleanup Force, need me to provide tents and rations?" "Thank you General for your kindness. We can just find a remote place in the camp to station ourselves. As for the rations, we have it with us." Huxley paused and thanked Slit for his kindness. As a cleanup force that fights those insidious and cunning demons all year round, they only believe in the food they bring, and the vigil also only believes in its own people. Slit waved his hand, indicating that Huxley could go knew that these twists and turns of the clean-up troops were just routine politeness. After Slit went out, the old man who was already tired at this age put out the oil lamp, covered himself with a blanket and fell into a deep sleep. While the Charles Imperial Army was waiting for the arrival of the dragon knights from their country, the Holy Empire of France was also waiting for the next instructions from the country. After experiencing the defeat of their first confrontation, the two giant countries understood that there was actually a third-party force at work in Duogu City. Unlike Charles's empire, which unanimously approved of sending troops, the Holy Empire of France had different opinions on the failure of the second prince's frontline particular, the factions of the eldest prince Albert and the third prince Victoria criticized the second prince verbally and verbally. Since His Majesty the God-Emperor has not stated who will be the next emperor, these three princes are the most likely. Although the eldest prince and the third prince themselves felt that it was just a rude act on the front line, and that the forward troops encountered a small obstruction, and even the foundation of the front line troops was not this is politics. Their people thought this was a good opportunity to attack the Second Prince's faction, so they let them do it. The second prince Noel did not pay attention to those who slandered and attacked him in the country. These matters would be dealt with by his dedicated team. For a while, various domestic media and newspapers were engaged in paper-and-pencil confrontations every day. Domestic residents Incarnate melon-eating masses read newspapers with gusto every day. But Noel himself was not distracted by the reports for even a his energy was focused on investigating the things reported by Enlucius. Whether it was those powerful soldiers or the cursed corpses, he had not seen anything similar in the books recorded in the domestic library. intelligence. Using thorns to pierce the corpse, any druid can do Druid is also synonymous with life magic, and the death elements in the thorns on the corpse are almost told the mages clearly that this was caused by necromancy magic. Necromantic magic can activate dead animal corpses, but it has not been determined whether it can activate dead plant the essence of necromantic magic is to play with the soul, forcing the soul of a dead animal into a corpse to be tortured and manipulated. But plants have no souls. The few plants with souls are all well protected by those pointed-eared elves, and there are no thorns in the soul plants recorded in the book. There were also the appearance of the dazzling golden trees in the ancient city mentioned in Lucius's letter. Noel immediately realized that this force had brought something new to the continent of Sarid. He committed a crime and The same problem as Lu Yi Stacey is that he wants to turn this unknown force into his own strength.
Of course, it is different from Lu Yi’s idea of killing Roland and taking these powers as his own. The second prince Noel’s first thought was to gradually step into the decadent sanctity of France after absorbing these new knowledge and things. The empire can take on new vitality and continue to prosper. As a child, while still studying as a student at the academy, Noel developed a keen interest in the history of the development of various countries. The more he got to know him, the more he understood that the situation of the Holy Empire of France was already very bad. The Holy Empire of France, which had inherited a history of nearly a thousand years, was like an old giant with constant hidden diseases in its body, no fresh blood to replace it, and domestic development was back at the history of the development of the Charles Empire in the past hundred years, it has annexed small countries to expand its territory, absorbed desirable technologies from those small countries and fed back its own country, until now it has become the number one enemy of the Holy Empire of France. Noel has a profound understanding that if he wants his motherland to continue to prosper, he must make changes to some things in the had always suffered from not having enough external force to break the domestic environment. No, it was not that there was not enough external force, but that there was not the right external force. After all, His Highness the Second Prince just wants his motherland to continue to prosper, and does not want to betray his motherland to the enemy. Now, the emergence of the Golden Tree forces in Dogu City gives Noel a glimmer of hope. He has strong personal power and a brand-new power system, but it is not enough to fight against a superpower.
