HAIL THE KING !
Chapters 23. He is a Beast
"Is there someone else?"
"Except for the people I mentioned, Pad's butler, who was Angela's future father-in-law and father, was also quite influential, Bast had left the Castle with a ton of wealth and no one knew where he was going. ”
"Angela's father?" Fei was surprised, "Dad Angela is still alive? No wonder why I have never seen him, He left before the enemy came, and he even took a lot of wealth ...... Does that mean escaping? "
However, Fei's initial reaction was not anger; he felt sad for Angela. The beautiful and kind girl was abandoned by her father at the most important moment.
“He must have covered his feelings every day. "She was suddenly worried about Angela.
……
A cold wind blew through Chambord. On the other side of the river, the enemy torches light up at night. Looking at them from afar, they were like stars in the night sky. Fei continued to talk to Brook on the defensive wall. He now had a pretty good idea about the internal power group in Chambord.
From Brook's description, even though Chambord was just a small kingdom in Azeroth Continent, it was, complex political artifacts and infighting between internal power groups are as numerous as those between powerful empires.
“I feel like I didn't see Bazzer, Conca, or Oleg in a battle today. Don't they all need to participate? '' Fei thought of something and asked.
"Mr . Bazzer actually came into battle once; it was the time when His Majesty fell from the defensive wall, and he has been recovering in his home ever since. Oleg was a warden; although I asked him to engage in battle, he felt his priority was to guard the prison, so he had no obligation to be on the battlefield! "
“No tasks, Huh? Hehe, ok ..... ”Fei sneer,“ Then ……. How is their strength? I mean their personal strength .... ”.
“Bazzer is just a regular guy. He had no magic, nor did he have any fighting techniques. Both Conca and Oleg are one-star fighters! With the rank of a three-star warrior, he is one of the top Guardians (Walis are powerful people who protect a kingdom or kingdom) in the kingdoms around us! ”
Brook is obviously proud when he talks about Lampard.
"I remember that Bazzer's son, Gill was a witch, didn't he?" Fei suddenly had a 'bad' idea'. He laughed, “Deliver my order, summon the Gill witch to the defensive wall to protect the Kingdom of Chambord. ”
"Your Majesty, Gill has not become a star-ranked mage. He was just a novice low-level magician .. Of course, a novice magician would definitely help a lot in battle. I'll send someone to call Gill right away. ”
Clearly, Brook agreed with this order 100%.
“Eh, that's enough for tonight. '' Fei pretty much got all the information he wanted. He smiled as he patted Brook on the shoulder, “After arranging the soldiers into a night shift, go and rest. I'll help you at this curfew tonight. ”
“Your Majesty, you can't! It's my duty to ..... ”Brook surprised.
Fei smiled and waved to cut him off, “Commander Brook, I heard from the soldiers that you haven't slept in two days. That's not good . There are more ruthless battles waiting for us tomorrow .. Okay, Brook. I want you to sleep. I will need you to kill more enemies in battle tomorrow ... This is the king's order, you must follow him! Go now!"
Brook's stunned. In the next instant, this formidable man half-kneeled down, propping up the two-handed sword in front of his chest. He swore solemnly, Your Excellency Alexander, my esteemed king. A Goethe-Brook star warrior promises loyalty! ”
……
After Brook left, Fei made an excuse and chased away the soldiers who followed him.
He walked around and observed in detail the structure and defense mechanisms on the walls. He calmed the soldier down in the night watch and walked up to the guard tower in the middle of the defensive wall.
This guard tower is a two-story building made of wood and stone. Before the war broke out, the watchtower was well decorated. It served as a resting place for the soldiers who exchanged shifts on the walls. However, the battle in the previous few days had destroyed this building. It only had four partially disassembled walls. Without a ceiling, starlight shone.
Fei chose a place that could see the area under the defensive wall so that he could react if the enemy did something. He sat down and started his watch.
Another pair of soldiers stood outside the watchtower, guarding the king.
“This is not a good situation. Even though we defeated their siege today, this will not happen every day. This enemy has great equipment and is well trained. Besides, we're outnumbered. If this continued, Chambord could not escape the fate of being conquered. There must be another way! "Fey thought hard.
But after tons of thinking, not a single good idea came to my mind. He was just a student on Earth. He is not a murderer or a military commander. Thinking of an idea that could save Chambord Castle was no easy task.
Fei gave up on the thought. He made up his mind as he closed his eyes and tried to communicate with a mysterious voice inside his head. He wanted to enter Diablo realm to 'up level' and increase his strength.
However –
“Mental strength is not recovered enough. Unable to enter Diablo world, please try again later. ”
The cold and mysterious voice gave Fei a quick response.
This disappointed Fei. He meditated for a while patiently and tried again, but the answer was the same. After trying more than ten times, he was still unable to enter the Diablo realm. It was the same response, "Mental power that is not sufficiently recovered ……"
Fei kept trying, but fatigue caught up with him and he subconsciously fell asleep.
……
……
On the south side of the Zuli River. In the headquarters of the enemy is mysterious and unsourced.
Right in the middle of the camp was a black tent, appearing larger and more majestic than the surrounding tents. Under the twinkling light of the torch surrounding him, the tent looked like a monstrous monster hidden in the dark, ready to attack at any moment.
However, inside the tent was warm and bright.
The silver-masked knight that appeared on the battlefield was sitting on a large chair. The seats were covered by the large black fur of an unknown beast. The silver-masked knight relaxed; one hand held his chin, while the other held an almost transparent jade cup, twirling the red wine inside.
Nineteen black warriors stood in two rows on either side. On the left side of the tent, a mysterious man covered in black robes sat beside the table. The wand beside him has revealed his identity – a witch.
There was a strange force field around this mysterious man; it made the man very blurry and no one could see his face. Although it was warm in the tent, everyone felt a chill in their bones as they looked at it.
Three Landes star warriors who were severely injured by Fei knelt in front of the silver masked knight.
"Prescue, crackle -!"
It was the sound of charcoal exploding under the fire. It was the only sound in the tent; it made the atmosphere very strange.
Finally, the silver masked knight raised his head. He looked at Landes and asked calmly, "Landes, tell me what happened on the defensive wall today. I'd like to know how you were seriously injured as a three-star warrior. ”
As Landes knelt on the red carpet in the middle of the tent, shame covered his face.
What was surprising was that under the question of the silver-masked knight, the powerful three-star warrior Landes looked extremely frightened, telling the silver-masked man everything he experienced in detail.
The man listened indifferently. He focused on the jade cup in his hand the entire time, as if something caught his attention.
After Landes finished, the silver masked man stopped twirling the cup. He said softly, “Interesting. Hehe .... Landes, sit down! ”
Landes feels like he's been acquitted of the death penalty. He breathed a sigh of relief. He stood up and said, “Thank you, sir. I have one more thing to report. When I fought with the three-star warriors from Chambord Castle, I found something interesting. ”
"Continue!"
"Master, I found out that the three-star warrior looked wounded. His water energy could not move within his body smoothly. From my predictions, he might have suffered an internal injury from some time ago and not recover ... Furthermore, I am confident that I can behead him and donate his skull into the master's collection! ”
Landes is very happy. However, it did not arouse the interest of the silver-masked knight at all.
The knight had no interest in the most powerful person in Chambord. Seeming accidental, he asked, "Landes, what do you think of the heavy armored 'bull' that appeared on the battlefield earlier today?"
