I Like This Dream!
Chapter 42
The watchtower is long and thin, and at first glance it makes one worry whether it will sway when the wind is strong. Its neck is slender, and its head is slightly larger than its neck. From the outside, it looks a bit like a lighthouse on the seaside.
From the inside, the view is very broad. The observatory is about three or four people in size. It is not circular, but hexagonal, and each side is inlaid with large pieces of green glass. Through these windows, the Theban Defense Line can be seen at a glance. There are pedestrians walking in the nearby city, as small as ants.
My father, Marquis Samuel, spent two beast tides here. When he came, he was just a fallen baron with an unknown reputation. He exchanged most of his family property for armor, swords and horses. When he left, he became Samuel The Marquis, deeply trusted by His Majesty the King, left me this army. Jane looked at the side face of the God's Favorite staring out the window and said, He is a hero in my heart, and he must be grateful for the opportunity to become a hero. Miss Sullivan's father.
The outer city is surrounded by a moat and a piece of white land, and a large circle further away is surrounded by woods. The lush trees cover each other, and it is impossible to see through them what is inside.
This, An Xu pointed to the window, is it a lot?
The trees near the castle have been cut down to leave a buffer zone for the beast tide. Jane explained, This is done in all places where strange beasts are frequent. Many ghosts are frighteningly fast, and they are too close to them. , he will die if he doesn’t react.”
Ah, oh. An Xu was stunned for a moment, I mean glass?
...
The favored one neither inquired about the history he just heard nor noticed that Jane changed her name to Miss Sullivan. The general fell into silence because of the strange focus of the God's Favorite, and the next topic that came to his lips was stuck in his throat. She adjusted herself and replied: Not a few.
Is it the work of a supernatural craftsman? An Xu asked seriously.
Really...? Jane said dryly. How did she know about this kind of thing? She wanted to summon the almighty adjutant, but it was a pity that he was left below.
An Xu nodded with some disappointment, thinking that there was no chance of making a fortune by making glass. She had a rare thought just now, and wanted to try her inherent technological knowledge to become a powerful country, but someone used her superpower to open a technological black box. As expected, it would be better to continue with this promising career as a lightning mage.
The general felt a shiver in his heart when he saw the lost expression on the God's Favored One. The Holy See has many glass workshops that produce stained glass inlaid on churches. It is said that these workshops all use ascetic monks as craftsmen, and they never use supernatural powers to show their piety when working. Is she dissatisfied with using supernatural powers to create things? Although yesterday's dinner could prove that Miss Anna Sullivan is not a die-hard believer who has been brainwashed, the most terrifying thing is the unconscious influence. Jane pursed her lips, determined to take strong medicine.
Using the quickest emergency method is also a helpless move. She said, Miss Sullivan has never been to the border, so she doesn't know how dangerous it is during the animal tide. At this time, how can you care about etiquette? 10 I was taken by my father years ago, and it was... a complete nightmare scene.
This watchtower has been rebuilt. The last one was destroyed. The birds broke through the glass and ate every sentinel inside without even sending a signal. There was no need for a signal. The entire watchtower erupted into thick smoke, covering the sky and covering the ground, even the sun was gone. Covered - there were no clouds that day, and the observation tower was not lit. They were all black birds! The strange beasts running on the ground were thicker than ants. If they were stacked, they could rush up to the city wall. Everyone who could fight was on it. On the wall. At that time, I had awakened my powers and thought I was quite capable. Bullshit, one person’s power was useless in that situation! There was no way to kill all the alien beasts. They were going crazy one after another. Only the people around me kept on killing them. Reduced. Your father and uncle both died there. My father survived by luck and lost one of his legs. He will never be able to go to the battlefield again.
The ancestors of Armenan have been fighting against the beast tide for generations. It is proud that my father can persist for more than 20 years and come back alive. But! Jane took a sharp breath, Miss Sullivan, your uncle directly He died in the beast wave, but Earl Edward was still alive after the war! My father was more seriously injured than this, why could he only leave this time? Because the people in the monastery ran away first!
The general's teeth clenched loudly, and his face was distorted with hatred. Only then did Anxu realize that her indifference to Dennis and Lydia was already a sign of suppressed politeness.
The church has more than half of the healers in Armenan. This group of people save lives and heal the wounded... Hey, that sounds nice! They only save their own people, only save people who don't care about anything except God, and only save people who are willing to collect donations and give away money. They are tempted by the rich people! With this alone, they can hold in their hands the small and medium-sized nobles who cannot recruit healers, and let the ignorant people who don't think about anything worship them as gods. When I was young, my mother was ill. Her father did not have enough financial resources to impress the local church, so he tried all means to watch her die. After that, he had no good impression of the church. Earl Edward was loyal to the king and he was deeply respected. If he were still alive, he would definitely reappear as Sullivan. Glory. So, so they...so they 'can't' return in triumph.
Jian swore harshly and gritted his teeth: When the alien beasts broke through the city wall, the monastery closed the door, allowing all the seekers to be bitten to death outside. They claimed to protect the statues carved by saints in the monastery from being desecrated, and sealed the monastery until the beasts invaded. They retreated, the seriously injured people died, and the Pope also commended them for their achievements in protecting the holy relics! My father had to retire in the prime of life. After that, rumors began to circulate that he was punished by heaven for insulting the church. Bah! Who didn’t know that the Holy See was fanning the flames behind it? !”
An Xu listened to Jane's story and watched her take a few rough breaths to calm herself down.
In the beginning, the Holy See was indeed the hope of mankind. The general put his arm around Anxu's shoulders and said sincerely: But now it is different from the past! They have more wealth than any nobleman, and they have begun to be greedy for life and afraid of death. Want to control other people's life and death. Miss Sullivan, if Earl Edward is still here, he will never let his family and daughter fall into the hands of the church. Please don't be deceived by those hypocrites!
An Xu nodded and said, I don't like them very much either.
Jian breathed a sigh of relief and patted An Xu on the shoulder happily, almost knocking her down.
That's good! the general said excitedly. Since the death of Earl Edward, Sullivan's acting powers have been approaching the church in an all-round way. I doubt... She swallowed the conjecture abruptly. After all, she hinted at it just after they had known each other for so long. Your relatives colluded with outsiders to kill your father is really not appropriate, and it is also very impolite to praise the other person, If you have a good power explosion, you should kill those bastards who were cheating on you, Now you have finally left that fire pit, There is no need to look at their faces, we can quickly get rid of the ascetic monks who are monitoring you! This winter is the once-in-ten-year beast tide in Tibes, and you don’t need to stay on the defensive line. The shortest experience of the Sullivan family is only a few Next week, if you stay here for two months and get married to my sister in the autumn, you can return to Urburg to accept the reward, inherit the title and Sullivan's family business. His Majesty the King has always appreciated Sullivan...
If His Majesty the King appreciates Sullivan so much, Anxu interrupted her, why has he ignored Sullivan for so many years?
He must have been deceived by a traitor! Jane said firmly.
Being deceived to the point where you don't even know that only two members of a 'respected family' are dead? Let the 'respected descendants' be placed in the enemy camp for how many years? An Xu asked again, Such a king Is it okay, Your Majesty? It doesn't sound very reliable.
That's not the case, oh, you don't know! Jian said anxiously, The Prime Minister Vulture... Duke Roland is just a vixen! No one knows what he is thinking, and His Majesty the King still favors him! This guy is not a loyal minister at all, he is sure He took bribes from the Holy See and deliberately concealed it from His Majesty the King!
Vixen...? An Xu said with a strange expression, He is an omega?
How is it possible?! The general's face turned green, as if he thought of some terrible scene, and shook his head vigorously, I mean he is cunning, treacherous! An old fox who has become a spirit! Oh, Miss Sullivan, please don't I hate His Majesty the King. We have spent a lot of effort over the years, but we can't get the Holy See to let you go. I'm really sorry...
An Xusan smiled. The cultural differences were so big that no one even appreciated the joke. She saw Jane scratching her head and looking anxious, and understood that the other party was probably like the hopeful courtiers in history, who earnestly believed that the king was kind and wise, but was deceived by treacherous ministers.
But according to what they said, he was thrown into the hostile camp and was brainwashed and abused every minute. If it weren't for the God's Favorite, I might have died of illness long ago, and it would be Lance who would be the head of Sullivan's family. Based on many years of experience (watching conspiracy cutscenes), she felt that either the Sullivan family was not that important to the king, or the king was a puppet fool with no power.
No matter which one it is, I don’t want to join a camp with such a leader. Not to mention that he still married a girl A whom he had never met before during the camp transfer mission.
I don't hate the king, Anxu said, but I want to stay here.
But there will be a big beast wave this winter! Jane said anxiously, almost wanting to shake the other person hard, Do you know how dangerous that is?
Aren't you here too? An Xu asked back.
It's different! Jane said in a deep voice, I am my father's daughter, the commander of the Thebes defense line appointed by the king, and the general of the border army. This is my responsibility. I live and die with Thebes, and you... …”
I am the daughter of Earl Edward, the prospective head of Sullivan's family, the one favored by God, Anxu replied imitating her tone, You are brave, and I am not timid. You spurn the monastery that fled, but you asked me to be there before disaster strikes. Retract?
The red-haired general looked like he wanted to run back to a few minutes ago and slap himself in the face for his smooth talk. That's not what you mean! she said, You are not running away, you are making a strategic retreat! Yes, a strategic retreat! You are the last hope of the Sullivan family. You can wait until you gather the Sullivan family and give birth to offspring. Come again!
You already have offspring?
Not yet, I'm so busy... At this point, Jane bit her tongue and saw Miss Sullivan reveal a bright smile.
General, you are so righteous! An Xu said solemnly, How can we call home before the alien beasts are exterminated! I want to learn from you and dedicate my best time to the most magnificent cause in the world - fighting for the survival of mankind. !”
Sounds exciting! Jane was excited for two seconds, then reacted and slapped herself on the forehead. This fearless heroic warrior felt a panic. She felt that she seemed to have messed up what Eve had told her many times.
