Fairy’s Box

Hadrian's Wall, inside the temporary camp.

The archenemy of the Highland Kingdom, the dictator of the Celtic Governor's Palace, was standing solemnly beside the carefully drawn military map, looking at the map intently, his fingers constantly stroking the delicate sheepskin one by one as he moved his consciousness. Logo, heartbroken.

The battle against the Highland Kingdom is related to the chaos of the entire Celtic Island, and it is also closely related to his future status, so he has to plan the battle situation painstakingly.

At this moment, the current situation is not as optimistic as it seems. Yale clearly understands this point. Although the trap set by Glamorgan land as bait has achieved an unexpected victory, the Highland Expeditionary Force is almost wiped out. In the follow-up Under the pursuit of the troops, only a few hundred people escaped.

The sharpest minions of the Celts have been cut off mercilessly, and the Highland Kingdom, which has been completely overwhelmed by the modern army, has lost the most deadly threat to the Governor's Palace. But this does not mean that the next battle will be smooth sailing, on the contrary, a fiasco has made the Highland Kingdom a hard bone with nowhere to speak.

In general, the strength of the Highland Kingdom has been broken, but in fact, the Celts have become frightened because of this.

In terms of military strength, the highland army currently assembled on the border has exceeded 80,000, which is still more than the number of troops in the Governor's Palace, and several powerful highland lords and their private armies are intact, and they are continuously flowing from the north. come.

Although they were pressed to the rear of the Anthony Wall with a great victory, so that they could no longer ravage the southern Celts, but it was undoubtedly a huge challenge to strike as much as possible with less.

What worries the black-haired knight even more is the actions of the Liberty Alliance. If the religious madman and the mentally ill mages reach an agreement and keep the Highland Kingdom at all costs, then his plans for several years will be in vain.

Defeating the enemy is not too difficult for the current Governor's Mansion, but if the expected goal is not achieved, even if there are countless victories, it will be meaningless. And even a small failure is unacceptable to the shallow-founded Governor's Palace, and may even lead to collapse.

Therefore, the attitude of the Empire is particularly important, but the reply brought by the messenger has caused Alei mixed feelings. The happy thing is that, from the words in the reply, it can be seen that His Majesty the Vice Emperor of the ruling empire is obviously on his side, and the other party also praised and praised him in a very enthusiastic tone, making the black-haired knight think that the two seem to know each other. Same.

But the worry is that the cabinet did not fully accept his idea, and the reinforcements did not see a single soldier. Only the Atlantic Fleet was dispatched, and they confronted the Combined Fleet across dozens of miles every day. The two sides maintained a strange tacit understanding like walking a tightrope. .

According to the current situation analysis, the leaders of the Cold War seem to be reluctant to get involved.

It seems... my unexpected victory this time has made the Empire have an inflated evaluation of the Governor's Palace.

That's right, he has dragons, gods, and the source of the curse to help him, and he has also recruited 20,000 soldiers from the Highland Kingdom. The numbers on paper can be said to be quite luxurious.

However, the sources of the four curses are all in the nest, and they cannot be separated from Glamorgan. They are useless to the current battle situation, and their core strength has lost almost one-third. As for the surrender of the Highland Kingdom... It is a double-edged sword. sword.

"Maybe it's time for our future queen to do something."

Yale raised his head, looked at the slightly gloomy sky outside the tent, and muttered.

…

Logs felled in the wild were rough processed, and they were simply tied with thick hemp ropes to build a ram. There were a lot of them, but the strange shape looked like it would collapse completely at any time.

Colorful Celtic tribal flags were planted in a mess on the outer wooden walls and on the four-wheeled vehicles that formed the defensive formation. Dirty debris was piled up everywhere, and the looted goods from nearby cities were also randomly placed. Internal chaos - this is the current state of the Pandoragon Restoration Army.

The poor construction technique of the barracks, the unruly tent arrangement, the unrestrained rambling discipline, the vulgar and savage demeanor, are nothing but a strong physique and a ferocious appearance.

As a high-ranking knight in the empire, Paddy, who was in charge of monitoring and protecting Mrs. Lilith, couldn't understand how to complete the restoration of the Pandoragon Dynasty with such a mob.

However, now is not the time to think about this, Paddy's thoughts are turned to the north, where the governor of the empire has defeated the Highland Legion, and now, it is almost time for him to act.

"Mr. Paddy, Queen Lilith has a request."

Suddenly, a rough voice sounded in his ear, which made him quickly recover from his imagination. He saw that the tall Celtic with brown bear-like body made a nondescript invitation in front of him, but his face was full of surprises. When it is arrogant and arrogant.

I only need 0.5 seconds to kill you - Paddy sneered in his heart.

Contempt is contempt, but for the sake of the current alliance between the two parties, he quietly smiled and nodded in greeting, then put his hands behind his back, and strode into the queen's temporary tent.

Walking into the tent, Paddy's first impression was that it was completely clean and cool from the outside world. There was a bronze statue in each corner of the tent, and the ice cubes placed inside the statue released the coolness and drove away the heat. The heat of summer.

In order to disperse the foul air flowing into the account from the outside world, spices were burned in the silver basin beside the bronze statue, temporarily suppressing the peculiar sweat and odor of the barbarians.

When he saw the woman sitting on the throne made of animal bones and animal skins, Paddy finally couldn't help showing a smile, and then looked at the only three people in the tent.

Sitting high on the throne, the glamorous lady wearing a golden crown is naturally Queen Lilith, and sitting on her right is a middle-aged Celtic with a short stature, a round face, big ears, a kind face, and a beard. , who wore a Celtic robe dyed khaki rather than black, was the first Highland Lord Arat to answer the call of the Restoration.

This man was originally a lord of the Highland Kingdom, but he lost his territory and people because of the magic disaster. After the ruthless King Wallace recovered the land, he did not give it back generously but took it as his own.

In his despair, he happened to meet Mrs. Lilith who was planning to restore, and very simply took advantage of the situation to rise up. He is currently the commander-in-chief of the Praetorian Guard of the Pandoragon Dynasty, and his combat ability is... average.

Standing on the left, his appearance is unremarkable, wearing a gray robe, a gray beard, and the person whose expression seems to be silent is called Merlin. There is not much information about the identity of this person, only that he seems to be an indigenous mage from Celtic Island, and his mana is not bad, so he is appointed as a senior staff member to manage the affairs of the kingdom.

"I received a letter from the Celtic Governor's House, and it seems that he has recognized that his army is not strong enough to defeat Wallace."

Just as Paddy was observing Merlin and seemed to find some information from that face, Lilith suddenly stood up and stepped off the throne, saying with a nonchalant expression.

However, as soon as Paddy came back to his senses, he couldn't help frowning, and subconsciously wanted to refute, but the words came to his lips and he swallowed them abruptly. He wanted to look at this arrogant woman. What will be the next move.

Of course Lilith didn't know what was in his heart. She squeezed Ale's letter in her hand and said with a smile:

"In this case, of course we are willing to help our allies, and I am also grateful for the generosity of the Celtic Governor's Palace, as long as the Governor is willing to help me get the Highland Kingdom and cede Hadrian's Wall. I agree to attack him left and right. Wallace, in the future, Rosevia and Celtic can be reconciled forever and resist the Free Alliance together."

Crunchy-!

Before the lingering sound dissipated, there was a burst of fried beans in the room, and the three Kells suddenly looked tense, staring at Paddy as if they were facing an enemy, and the future queen of the Highland Kingdom quickly retreated and fell suddenly. sit on the throne.

Paddy clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles turned white, and anger was accumulating and surging in his chest, and even for a moment, he had the urge to take a step forward and directly kill the arrogant and ignorant Lilith.

"call!"

In the end, the knight held back. After all, this woman was still useful. He had to endure the anger in his heart, calm down his emotions, raised his head, and said with a sneer:

"Your Excellency Lilith, please forgive my offense, you don't seem to have a clear understanding of the situation in front of you, who is begging for whom and who needs whom more, I hope you will consider this carefully. The empire's army has already defeated an arrogant Wallace, even if the war is not going well, you can still lose and defend Hadrian's Wall. And you, Mrs. Lilith, there are only two ways to go now. First, take this opportunity to raise the banner of restoration. Second, dissolve Your army, go back to Lao Lu to be your businessman."

"Are you threatening me?"

After Paddy finished speaking calmly, Lilith's expression became extremely pale, her body slumped on the throne like mud, and she asked weakly.

"Threat? If you think it's a threat, then that's fine." The knight approached unabashedly, his savage eyes pressed directly at the other side.

"Lord Paddy!"

Merlin suddenly dodged in front of Lilith and said indifferently:

"We have been allies of Rosevia from the beginning, and naturally we will not ignore the requests of our allies. Of course, Her Majesty will cooperate with the Governor-General."

"That's right, we only have one common enemy now, the traitor Wallace!" Arat quickly stepped forward to smooth things out.

Lilith bit her red lips, squeezed out a smile, and nodded vigorously at the same time:

"They're right, and so do I."

"Then... please act as soon as possible!" The hostility on Paddy's face disappeared, and he said with a smile.

…

Highland Kingdom, Senate Hall.

"His Excellency, the current situation forces us to cooperate further. The gun of fate is not enough for me to defeat the enemy. I need stronger strength."

Wallace stared at the bishop's lowered gaze and said in a hoarse voice.

"The blow of the spear of destiny to cut off destiny will never fail. There is no one in this world who can withstand that blow. As long as he is shot, he will surely die."

Joseph raised his sunken face, and asked with a deep expression: "You shouldn't have lost, why did you lose? Can you give me a reason?"

"I was deceived, Your Honor."

There was a flash of grief on the king's face, and a blood red tide appeared on the pale face again, and said weakly:

"I didn't expect that that guy actually had the ability to clone, and he cut off fate and bombarded the clone, and he was deceived by the fatal blow. That guy was too strong, and the bombardment at the energy level was completely ineffective against him, Even Yicuir can't contain it!"

"…"

After listening to Wallace's description of the battle, Bishop Joseph fell into contemplation, with deep concern in his expression.

"Your Excellency, now that the enemy has known the existence of the Spear of Destiny, he must be vigilant and think about assassination is impossible. I need strength to defeat the power of the Origin Knight head-on!"

The king squeezed the pain like tearing in his chest, and suddenly reached out and grabbed one of the bishop's arms, pleadingly said:

"If I fail, it means that your mission in the Highland Kingdom is completely bankrupt. Even if you return to the Papal State, it will be difficult to have a chance to come back. As long as we defeat the enemy in front of us, we still have a chance. You must help I!"

"Your Majesty, of course I know that."

After a long silence, Bishop Joseph let out a helpless sigh, looked at Wallace in front of him, and said softly:

"Among all the fifth-order lives in this world, the Origin Knights have the strongest comprehensive performance, which even angels cannot reverse. Since the governor can withstand the bombardment of the energy level of the spear of destiny without being injured, he must stand on the fifth At the top of the order, even if I use all my strength to strengthen you, I will be tied with him at most."

Speaking of this, a hesitant expression flashed across his face, and his tone became hesitant:

"unless…"

"Unless what?"

Wallace seemed to have grabbed the life-saving straw, held the opponent's arm tightly, and asked with hope.

"Unless you leave this world!"

Bishop Joseph narrowed his eyes, and his tone became urgent: "Yes, as long as you leave this world, the power of the spear of destiny will be completely released, and you will be able to obtain power far beyond the fifth order!"

"The power beyond the fifth order..."

The king showed a look of surprise, and urged the other party loudly to ask:

"What should I do? You must have a way, right?"

"Yes, I do have a way..."

The cardinal immediately lowered his head, and no one knew that a grim look appeared on his old face hanging to the ground.
