"Martyrdom!"

"Death on the spot!"

Roy glanced at the queen's body with a trace of admiration. Although this woman has a bad temper, she has such a strong character in the face of big right and wrong.

The witcher's statement was not over yet, he used the last cruelty to draw an end to the future of the two.

"Your body is missing, so His Majesty East is alone in the tomb!"

……

"Enough, shut up!"

"Witcher," Calanthe wiped away the tears on his face, sat up straight on the throne, and forced his head up to smile, "This is the end of the wonderful show! Now, I will give you a sum of money. Then you two will immediately leave."

"You still have a question," East frowned, "Where's Ciri?"

"Do you believe his nonsense?" The queen turned around, with tears in her emerald green eyes, and asked in confusion,

"My love, ask your heart, you have the answer." East suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief, "I believe him..."

Easter from the Isles never told anyone—when he was an adventurer adrift at sea, he always looked at the stars to make sure his ships never strayed from their course.

But one night, lying on the deck of the longship with his hands on his pillow, he accidentally discovered the secret engraved between the celestial map.

This discovery completely changed the once humorous and wandering adventurer into a sullen and quiet man.

why?

Because the heavy future he saw from the stars was far less clear than Roy's description, but most of it overlapped.

For a long time, he alone bears this nightmare future.

And now, his wife, so many people share the burden for him.

This silent man seemed to have let go of his shackles.

"Mossak, the most knowledgeable druid master, do you think so?" Calanthe turned to the old man with gray beard, her eyes full of expectation, waiting for him to give a negative answer, but she was disappointed.

As the children of nature, druids often observe various natural phenomena, such as storms, waves, lightning, and starry sky, and draw laws from them, most of which are signs of the future.

Although he couldn't understand the principle of the witcher's prophecy.

But the inspiration and experience he has accumulated over the past hundred years, as well as the short lie detector just now, told him very clearly,

"I'm not sure whether Roy's words are all true, but the language of nature tells me..." Druid said with a heavy expression, "Most of them are true."

Calanthe felt weak all over, and sat back in the chair, staring blankly into the air.

Suddenly closed his eyes.

Although she doesn't want to admit it, the witcher's description of the future fits perfectly with her personality.

If she was in such a desperate situation, she would definitely die for the country!

The next words of the witcher dealt her a fatal blow.

"Queen, before you committed suicide, you asked several knights in the castle to swear an oath to protect Ciri from escaping. But on the way to escape, those knights were killed by Nilfgaardian soldiers, and Ciri and those corpses stayed in the castle where In an alley in a burning city."

The two rulers held their breath, palms clasped, supporting each other.

Geralt also pricked up his ears, Roy hadn't told him this part.

"Later, Ciri escaped the pursuit of the Nilfgaardian infantry by relying on her wit and intuition, and she survived."

"But starved and trudged."

"She's going to be in a lot of pain, a lot more pain than she's had in the last ten years."

There was an unbearable silence in the hall.

There were only a few people's heavy breathing.

After a long time.

Calanthe took a deep breath, and his face completely recovered its calmness and grace.

She took out her handkerchief and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. She looked at the two demon hunters with no more disdain or disgust in her eyes, only a trace of understanding and respect in the calmness.

"That's why you want to take Ciri away so that she won't suffer the grief of a subjugated princess prematurely."

"Yes," Geralt began, "you finally understand our thoughts."

"Though we can do nothing about the doom of Sintra."

"But at least we can save Ciri."

"Give two reminders, just don't want her to blame us in the future."

……

"Can't change Sint's bad luck, not necessarily."

Calanthe held her husband's arm, and the tacit understanding cultivated by each other flashed across both eyes at the same time, "Assume that Master Roy is telling the truth. We know the information a year in advance."

"Do you guys know what it means?" Calanthe's eyes shone brightly, and his tone carried the hope of the morning light coming out of the sky. "We have nearly a year to prepare in advance."

"Even if we still can't change the outcome of our failure, we will try our best not to lose so badly!"

"And now, let's not talk about Shirley. Roy, you stand so high. You see so many important scenes." East, who was bent down by fate, had a fighting spirit in his eyes, and he unloaded the burden , he will fight to the end for his wife, fighting for every chance of survival!

Even if it is death, he will make Nilfgaard pay a heavy price, and tear a piece of flesh from this behemoth!

"You should have some suggestions that you haven't disclosed."

"How to deal with the threat of Nilfgaard? In your opinion, what should Cintra pay attention to in that decisive battle, and what should it do?"

Roy thought for a while, then sighed.

Chapter 36 A little advice

"Tick!"

A drop of rain falls from a clouded sky into a dark, turbulent sea.

Immediately afterwards, dense silver threads fell down, and it turned into a torrential rain in an instant!

"Crash!"

The whole of Sintra was shrouded in a torrential rain.

The wind howls, the silver snake swims in the clouds, and the rolling thunder seems to shatter the sky.

"Boom!"

Lightning pierced the sky!

The meeting room of Sintra Castle was illuminated, and Roy's face was plated with a layer of cold golden yellow.

"Your Majesty, if I give you a suggestion, can you take Ciri away?"

……

Calanthe said nothing.

"The Law of Accidents does have its magical power..." Druid Mossack said suddenly, "As the daughter of destiny, Ciri cannot escape her destiny after all."

"Calanthe," East said in a deep voice, "I was also there when Geralt asked Downey about the unexpected law. Downey made a promise."

"Donnie and Pavetta passed away unexpectedly, but the promise should not be easily erased."

"I can't make a decision for Ciri..." After a long time, Calanthe sighed, "She decides whether to stay or stay."

Roy turned around and looked at Geralt, both of them had surprise in their eyes... No matter what the final result is, it is already a great success to make Calanthe calm down and change his words.

"Well then, Your Majesties, Master Mossak, I will only say this once, believe it or not, it's all up to your judgment..."

"Next year, in a decisive battle—the Battle of Manada," Roy stared out the window, staring at the dark sky. "The reason for Sintra's disastrous defeat is not just because of the difference in numbers."

"Niflgaard's huge army has unimaginable military literacy and assembly speed. They suddenly crossed the Amer Pass, marched northward at an alarming speed, launched a blitzkrieg, and quickly cleared the defenders along the way."

"The army of Cintra rushed out unprepared... fell into Nilfgaard's trap and was surrounded by an army several times larger than itself. They couldn't advance or retreat, they could only fight to the death!"

"The two have led troops to fight, I believe you will have a way to deal with the ambush." ​​Roy's eyes jumped between the two rulers of Sintra, "But when that day comes, we still have to be more careful."

The voice stopped abruptly.

East was deep in thought, and the terrain of the Manada Valley clearly came to mind. They must take time to formulate targeted and rigorous tactics.

"Secondly, before the Battle of Manada, Skellige had already sent fifty warships to Sintra to support them, and they were only waiting to land at the port to resist the Nilfgaardian army together with their allies."

Mossack was amazed.

What kind of accurate prediction is this, even the number of fleets is clear?

And as an advisor to the King of the Isles, he knew King Bran's strength clearly.

"Fifty warships, very reasonable." He interjected in a low voice.

"It's a pity," Roy shook his head, and everyone present felt their hearts skip a beat. "The fleet sailed halfway and encountered an unprecedented huge storm...and was trapped at sea."

"Cintra did not wait for allies."

"Falled in isolation."

"It's too strange for a sea storm to happen at such a critical moment." Calanthe said sullenly, "I don't believe that even God wants to destroy Sintra."

"Man-made factors may not be ruled out, and the storm at sea may not be a coincidence." Roy said meaningfully, "Niflgaard does not lack powerful warlocks who can affect the weather."

But it was too deep, and he didn't disclose further.

"The Battle of Manada took place in July 1263, which means that if there is no accident, the Nilfgaardian army will leave the Amer Pass in July next year." Roy continued,

"So I have a suggestion - the reinforcements sent by Skellige should be dispatched from the archipelago at least some time in advance, in the middle or late June." Roy paused and looked at Mossak, "In order to prevent the unforeseen Anticipated storm at sea...Master Mossak has the best shot."

The sky controller among the druids is unmatched in manipulating the weather, and it is easy to suppress or even eliminate a storm.

"At that time, Skellige's reinforcements will be able to enter Sintra smoothly!"

The remnants of Sintra can stand alone for four days and four nights, if you add the group of powerful sea men.

It will definitely change the situation of the war, at least give Sintra more time!

Nilfgaard pays a higher price!

I can be considered as benevolent.

Mossack stroked his beard slowly from top to bottom.

According to common sense, druids never participated in wars, but the two close friends were about to suffer catastrophe, and he could not sit idly by.

Stopping the storm is not impossible.

"If the old man is needed to work, I am duty-bound."

East and Calanthe showed gratitude.

Roy continued, "Also, the Skellige fleet, do not pass through the Sedna Abyss during the entire journey."

Calanthe's face suddenly changed,

"My daughter and son-in-law were shipwrecked in this ghost place?"

A few years ago, Downey and Pavetta's ship sank in Sedna Deep, and both of them disappeared.

Ciri only survived by staying in Skellige.

"There's an evil spirit everywhere in that place," Roy reminded solemnly, but he didn't reveal the person behind it. The two couldn't even survive the first level, so there's no need to understand the deeper reasons. "Just in case, the last It's best not to get close."

East nodded.

Even if there are inaccuracies in Roy's words, these arrangements will not cause Sintra to suffer losses.

"You two, I must emphasize that the situation of the war is changing rapidly. Are there any spies from Nilfgaard lurking in the city of Sintra? I don't know."

Roy turned his gaze to the faces of East and Calanthe.

"There is a high probability that Nilfgaard's intelligence department will be able to detect your arrangement and the movement of the Skellige fleet in advance, and start the war first!"

"So my words are just for reference, and the specific arrangements are for the two Majesties to decide on their own."

……

At this moment, Calanthe's eyes flashed with admiration.

At least this guy didn't lose his mind in arrogance. A war is definitely not something that can be explained clearly in a few words.
