The Sun King's Evidence

Burning buildings, collapsing towns, and hordes of Imperial citizens fleeing.

"Help~"

"My Lord Charlemagne, save your people!"

"Thalia protect me!"

"Moore on top."

The villagers with their families in tow desperately retreated towards the Church of Justice Cathedral in the center of the town, where dozens of defenders and hundreds of militiamen gathered to prepare for a final resistance.

Groups of beasts rushed into the town, and the flimsy defenses and walls were overturned by them. The beasts, who were so hungry that they were almost crazy, killed adults when they saw them, then devoured their flesh and blood, and dragged away women and children when they saw them. Go, these people will become a weapon for the reproduction of the beastman race. Affected by the increasingly violent wind of chaos, the current beastman cubs can enter youth in only ten days, and fully mature and enter adulthood in three months. .

No matter how hard I kill, I can’t finish them all.

After breaking through the city wall and defeating the defenders, the beastmen did not choose to attack the inner castle and church in the center of the town. The cunning beastmen knew that there must be the largest number of defenders and the strongest resistance there. The beastmen chose to attack taverns, hotels, and markets. , because there is a lot of food and wine there, even if they have become children of chaos, the preference for alcoholic beverages and meat is still the instinct of these creatures.

But these beastmen were not very lucky today.

Turning a corner, a young male noble stood in the middle of the street with his legs spread apart. He had long black silky hair, and his black and gold body armor reflected the light and shadow of the dwarven runes. There was some fluff around his mouth, and he had sword eyebrows. Starry, blue eyes stared at these beastmen.

The male noble held a slender half-hand sword in one hand. It came from the dwarf's exquisite tempering forge and was obviously of high quality.

Behind him, ten black stone guards lined up, carrying the unparalleled pride of the Nuer people and their contempt for the beastmen. The great swordsmen raised their chins and looked at their enemies.

The young male noble's black and gold cloak blew with the wind in the hall. It had a pattern of a golden lion on a black background, just like the coat of arms on the baron's chest. His face was cold and contemptuous, and he saw the beastmen attacking his people. , he quietly uttered one word: "F**K!"

"Kill...the ones without hoofs...eat the meat!" The Great Horned Beast King was the first to roar. Among the beasts, an inferior horned beast strung its bow. The simple short bow was fully drawn, and a bone arrow shot out of the air.

"Hey~"

"Bang!" The male nobleman flicked his wrist, and the blade of his half-hand sword passed through a semicircle, and then the bone arrow flew away.

"Roar!" The first horned beast rushed up. The male noble grabbed the hilt of the sword and swung it upwards. The cold light that came directly forced the horned beast to lie down to avoid it. The male noble lowered his body downwards, and the sword edge hit the horned beast's chest. The rusty battle ax fell to the ground on his wrist, and then the baron grabbed the upper half of the half-hand sword and used both hands to force the long sword through the horned beast's head.

"The first one." Baron Noor said coldly.

"Ahhhhh!" Then two horned beasts rushed at the same time. The baron first raised his sword to block the charge of the first horned beast. He took a step back, released all his strength, and let the sword pass along the machete in the hand of the horned beast. The incoming power swirled in the air, sending it downwards and splitting its chest instantly.

Sheathing his sword, facing the second enemy, the Baron slashed upwards, withstood the battle axe, and quickly stabbed the long sword downwards. The blade pierced the horned beast's thigh. The Baron sheathed his sword very quickly and added another strike. He chopped down the horned beast, then quickly turned around, slid forward, and dodged the spear of an inferior horned beast. He held the hilt of the sword with his backhand, slashed left and right, and chopped off the head of the inferior horned beast before it fell to the ground. He grabbed the handle of the spear and sent it forward. The beastman and horned beast archer who first fired the bone sword was pierced by the flying spear and pierced directly into the wall behind him.

"Second, third, fourth."

The remaining beastmen were instantly frightened by the baron in front of them. They hesitated for a moment and then charged towards the baron. Both horned beasts were equipped with shields and hand axes.

The Baron did not panic at all. He first raised his hand and activated the magic he had prepared for a long time. Several torrents of metal fell from the sky. The two horned beasts were forced to raise their shields to resist. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Baron rushed forward quickly and waved a sword. Accurately hitting the lower part of the horned beast's hand ax, the sword dance swept across and immediately held the sword in the backhand, turned around and pierced the neck of the first horned beast.

The sword edge was drawn out quickly, blood sprayed out. Before the first horned beast's hot blood could hit the ground, the baron continued to charge forward. He dodged the thrusting machete and sent himself into the horned beast's arms. He pierced the horned beast with half a sword in his hand. There was a sound of cracks in the leather armor, and animal blood filled his robe.

He kicked the corpse away from him, and now, the big horned beast was the only one left.

Knowing that he was the only one left, the Great Horned Beast King took a deep breath, bowed his body, and held the giant ax in front of his chest with both hands, preparing to face the baron's attack.

An imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of the Baron's mouth. The moment he saw the big horned beast sinking down, Frederick immediately reached out to open the button and grasped the handle of the finely crafted rune gun from the holster at his waist.

"Bang!" There was a cloud of white smoke, a stream of blood spurted out from the big horned beast's forehead, and the beastman and beast king fell down in response.

The whole process from Frederick grabbing it to the big horned beast being killed took less than 0.5 seconds.

"Duwu~duwu~duwuwuwu~" the horns belonging to the Nuer army sounded from a distance, and cheers soon came from the town.

"It's the Nuer Army. The Nuer Army is here to save us!"

"Look at that flag, it's our baron coming."

"Our baron will always be a god!"

"Shield of the Empire, Light of Nur!"

The humans in the town burst into cheers.

Reinforcements from Nuer quickly rushed into the city, and the Beastman Beast King was already a corpse. It took almost no effort. The elite Nuer troops in black clothes and black armor, with murderous intent, and the provincial army and noble private troops who followed them. He immediately defeated the beastmen, slaughtered all the beasts and drove the remaining fast enemies into the forest.

"No matter how hard we kill, we can't finish them all." Surrounded by the great swordsmen of the Blackstone Guards, Baron Nuer, Deputy Commander of the Nuer City Defense Force, General Nuer, the guards of Nuer and Wesen Territory, and friends of Sol Territory , Shield of the City, Imperial Countess Emmanuel von Lebwitz-Bernardino and the son of Sun King Ryan, Frederic von Lebwitz-Bernardino has no victory. With joy, the Baron just frowned. There have been too many similar victories this year, and Frederick has become numb. Now the Baron is more often thinking about how to get rid of these damn beasts once and for all, or temporarily solve these damn beasts. Endless harassment from people.

Since the last assassination, Imperial Countess Emilia has become more and more tired of dealing with military and political affairs. The military power has been further transferred to Frederick's hands, and there are also rumors in the Noor court that Imperial Countess He plans to retire when his son is about thirty years old and pass all titles to him.

Of course, the thing that has attracted Emilia's most attention recently is the "damn gang of liars" (referring to Watten and Luther Huss). The Imperial Countess has been planning for Frederick's future accession to the throne for more than ten years, but in the end she was halfway there. The emergence of Woten made Emilia extremely angry, and it also widened the cracks within the empire. For example, during the war on the northern front, Emilia only symbolically sent a general to lead three troops. Our regiment is just rushing to the front line.

Frederic was speechless about this. He understood his mother's troubles. For this reason, he secretly arranged some activities and covered his mother's teleportation to Britannia to find his father to relax.

In fact, although Emilia came to the empire to become a countess, she still went to Britannia to see her father for at least two or three months every year. Frederick also fully understood this.

After cleaning up everything, Frederick mounted his beloved pure-blood elf war horse. He planned to return to Nuer as soon as possible. It was not safe to spend the night outside the city, so the Baron always tried to avoid spending the night outside the city.

Speaking of outside the city, Frederick asked his bodyguard, Blackstone Guard Captain Nathan Drake: "Is there any news about the matter that I entrusted you to investigate the sewers before?"

"No." Nathan Drake shook his head, and the captain of the Blackstone Guard said with a grimace: "I sent out three teams of people, and one team found nothing after walking around in the sewers for a long time. They only reported that some of them were relatively small. Big rats were infested, but they were definitely not Skaven. The second team found a vampire's lair, the Strigni vampire. They paid a lot of money to eliminate some scavengers inside. The third team The team members completely disappeared and they never came back."

"Didn't you send someone to look for it?" Frederick frowned. The Baron knew that there must be Skaven underground in Nuer. After all, there had been a rat plague in Nuer before, and not only a batch of precious animals were stolen. According to the blueprint, less than half of the factory area was destroyed, and if the two partners Gotrek and Felix had not defeated the Skaven Gray Seer Chuanquero, Nur really didn't know how much more price he would have to pay.

However, a year or two of searching yielded nothing. Most of the scouting teams sent out only saw some slightly mutated rats. A small number of the scouting teams disappeared and no one saw them again.

Nuer's university and the military emphasized it again after many discussions: "The Skaven do not exist. Don't waste your efforts, my baron."

This is very uncomfortable.

What's even more annoying is that for some unknown reason, Frederick's personal maid, Noelle, suddenly became weak and bedridden. She had a high fever and talked nonsense. Frederick originally relied heavily on this personal maid who also served as a lady-in-waiting. With his own tactical guidance, he could only rely on himself for everything now. He let Noelle have a good rest, arranged for the best people to take care of her, and shouldered the heavy burden himself.

There is now no news about the empire and the high-elf coalition that went to Sylvania. Frederick couldn't help but feel sad when he thought of the former little queen Alisara.

Who can understand my heart?

On the way back, snow began to fall on the ever-changing sky, which continued to cool down. White snowflakes fell on Frederick's armor and blood-stained robe. Black, white, red, and gold were all four colors. Miscellaneous, just like the glorious history of Noor.

The young baron looked at the sky and smiled bitterly. It was already spring, and it still snowed from time to time. The climate was getting colder and colder. It was conceivable that this year must be another bad year.

He thought of Noelle who was seriously ill and couldn't afford it. He thought of the little queen who had been captured for a long time and now has no news. She thought of herself, Woten and Luitbold, and thought of her father, Queen Surya, and her mother. Story, and then looking at the falling snowflakes, Frederick couldn't help but think of a song his father taught him to sing when he was a child. It seemed that it should be sung at this time.

He rapped and sang, and the baron's voice soon spread throughout the empire's silent fields and snowy skies.

"Could it be that you are pretending to be lonely~"

"Why is your~ heart so touched~?"

"I came back to my senses before I knew it~"

"I have been deeply attracted to you~"

"How can I reflect my heart in the mirror so you can see it clearly?"

"Even if it is a love that turns out to be an extravagant wish, will it be reflected in the mirror one day?"

"Until we can see the faint light of dawn, this love is still difficult to achieve~"

As he sang, Frederick himself was moved.

I sing so well.

It’s just that the little queen is missing now and Noelle is seriously ill. It’s a pity that such a good singing voice can’t be reached.

While Frederick was still thinking wildly, a person suddenly rushed out from the roadside. She was wearing a brown robe and a thick cloak and hood on her head, making her face unclear. , but from her long flaxen hair, slender figure, and elegant running posture holding up her skirt, we knew that she must be a female aristocrat and had experienced very strict palace training. She held a handful of flowers in her hands and used A shy and timid voice cried: "My Baron, I want to give you flowers!"

Look, it’s another suitor of mine. Unfortunately, I already have my heart. Frederick thought with some pride. The baron took a look at this woman’s figure and felt a little familiar. He noticed that there was something in her body. There was a lot of magical energy from the wind of death, but no chaos corruption on his body, so he stretched out his hand to indicate that she could come over and lay flowers.

Death apprentice mage? Is he the apprentice of the master of Cemetery Rose Elspeth?

Isn't it the most romantic thing for a noble girl to present flowers to a heroic knight? Everyone in the Nuer Army was happy to watch the show and did not stop it.

Seeing no one to stop her, the girl suppressed her excitement and trotted to Frederick's elf horse, holding up the flowers.

"Thank you... Ellie???!!!" Frederick took it casually and was about to say thank you. The charming face revealed from the girl's hood instantly made the baron's heartbeat soar to 400 beats per minute, and his pupils tightened. , his mouth opened wide, and the little queen's name almost blurted out. Fortunately, the baron quickly changed his words: "Miss Ellie? Is it you? You...how...how did you come to Wesson?"

"Save me, Frey, save me." As soon as Alisara saw Frederick, tears flowed down her face. The little queen choked and whispered in Elvish: "Please, help me. , Uncle Eltharion is dead, Belannar is dead, everyone is dead! I have nowhere to go, I know only you can take me in, please, Frey!"

Everyone is dead? Frederick was shocked and thought that the amount of information in this passage was really huge! Everyone is dead? Does it mean that all the high elves are dead or that everyone including Archbishop Vicmar and Grand Master Hans of the Knights Templar are dead?

Only you can take me in? Isn't this right? No matter how you think about it, Alisala shouldn't come to seek refuge with you.

Also, Frederick will naturally not forget the appearance and power of the little queen. Why did her hair turn into light flaxen color and she turned into a death wizard?

The baron's face was full of questions. There was too much information, and he was even a little sluggish.

The little queen interpreted this dullness as Frederick's hesitation, and she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

The world is so big, where is my home?

Alisala showed her last stubbornness. She stretched out her hand to wipe away her tears: "I...I understand, I'm sorry for bothering you, I'll get out now."

"Wait!" Frederick saw Alisala was about to leave and quickly reached out to grab her.

The little queen who has longed for her day and night took the initiative to come to him alone, and he still wants to take her in?

Where did such a good thing come from? It’s like gold from the sky!

The festival is here!

Frederick was immediately ecstatic after a brief shock. The Baron simply stretched out his hand to pull Alisala up and hold her in front of him. A touching love story instantly formed in his mind. He said to everyone: "A beautiful young lady whose whole family died in the war and who was helpless came to seek refuge with me. Do you think I should take her in?"

"Of course, you are worthy, my baron!" The Nuer soldiers naturally cooperated with Frederick's performance. The baron obviously fell in love with this girl, and everyone cheered, clapped and screamed together.

"Let's go back to Noor. Please tell me in detail what happened." The army continued on its way, and the baron whispered to the little queen in his arms: "Don't worry, I will keep you safe."

"Yes." Alisala breathed out softly, and then her body finally relaxed and slumped down.

Sure enough, Goddess Lilith's advice was reliable.

Noor, where Frederick was, was the only place in the old world that had the ability, willingness, and conditions to take her in.

She will start a new life in this place.
