The Sun King's Evidence

Chapter 274, reaching a tacit understanding

Deep in the Chalon Forest, the Greenskin Fortress.

Heavy snow is drifting on the battlefield, and an army of 1,500 people is marching into the battlefield neatly. Sword and shield soldiers and sergeants holding shields are slowly advancing, crossbowmen and wood elf forest guards are mixed in. Together, the dwarf musketeers stood alone in three rows. No one wanted to stand in front of the dwarves.

Not far away, the Greenskin Fortress was in dilapidated condition, and many places had been completely destroyed. The Goblins tried hard to repair the towers, but the dense arrow rain and dwarf muskets made the Goblins only dare to hide in You can't raise your head in the fortress.

"Shoot!" Some Goblin archers tried to fight back. They reluctantly got up from behind the walls of the fortress and fired back at the serf crossbowmen.

"Boohoo~" Sparse arrows were shot at the coalition soldiers. Many serf infantry immediately raised their shields to resist, but a few unlucky ones were still shot. Fortunately, they were not critical.

"Fei's light of protection!" A young witch apprentice was working hard to cast a spell.

Fei's Light of Protection, a second-level spell, is a simple protective spell.

White-gold light surrounded the witch apprentice. The witch apprentice tried to condense the power of the magical wind, but the vague and non-existent sensation made her feel very painful.

"Concentrate! Naomi, imagine, imagine your own magic construction, then fill it with the power of the wind of light, and release it in one breath!" Veronica pointed loudly from the side: "Concentrate! Control! Cover yourself!"

"Control..." The witch apprentice tried her best to concentrate, and the power of the wind of light slowly took shape in her mind.

The bright wind of light was finally controlled by the witch apprentice named Naomi. The witch apprentice released a protective light and enveloped the serf infantry. This spell is a very basic protective spell, and the actual effect is also It can only be said that the light of protection can only protect the soldiers from ordinary arrows and basic spears at best, and it only lasts for two or three minutes. The light of protection of this witch apprentice can only cover a row of seven or eight soldiers. , the effect can only be said to be worse than better.

But this is extremely valuable practical experience for the witch apprentices who have been locked up for classes for a long time. The witch apprentices who usually practice spellcasting in and near the wizard tower experienced the feeling of the battlefield for the first time. Many soldiers Because they failed to cast the spell in time, they were injured and even lost their lives forever.

This is the cruelty of the battlefield.

Veronica saw that the witch apprentices finally realized what war was. She nodded with satisfaction. Then, a powerful spell was chanted in the mouth of the Gloria Witch, and a huge fire element air ball gradually formed in front of her. .

A fire elemental air ball larger than a cow exploded and burned in the air, and all the snow on the ground melted.

Eight rings of magic, pyrotechnics!

Veronica's witch Catherine also muttered: "Shan's burning gaze!"

The white mana light ball condensed in front of Catherine. The scorching gaze was a fourth-ring spell, one of the relatively few direct damage spells in light magic.

"Ahhh! I thought that fireball couldn't be touched!" The Goblin Shaman on the city wall was frightened. It shouted the name of its warg: "Boys, don't blame me. I said, if If you can’t stand it, I will run faster than you!”

After saying that, the Goblin Shaman mounted his warg and rushed directly towards the mine below the fortress.

"Still want to run?" Veronica yelled, and the terrifying Pyroblast flew directly towards the Goblin Shaman. The speed of the fire element air ball was not very fast, but the Pyroblast exploded a section of the city wall. , a sentry tower and a Mao Ge stone statue showed no signs of stopping.

"Wow! I thought I was going to be blown up to death!" The Goblin Shaman howled miserably, urging the warg to escape as quickly as possible. The flames of the pyroblast ignited the warg's buttocks, and the warg was burned until it whined: "Woooooooo~"

"Boom!" There was a huge explosion, and only ashes were left on the spot.

The dwarf engineer Dugan Ironhan raised his thumb and pointed at the gate of the green-skinned city: "The elevation angle is forty-three degrees!"

"Forty-three degrees!" The dwarf heavy cannon turned its muzzle and aimed it at the gate of the fortress. The engineer took out the cast iron shell and stuffed it into the barrel from behind.

"fire!"

"Bang!" There was a dull sound. The artillery shell drew a perfect parabola in everyone's eyes. A wisp of smoke dispersed in the air. The city gate exploded, sawdust flew, and a big hole was blown out of the tall city gate by the artillery. .

"Kill! Kill!" The sergeants rushed to the crack in the city gate. Many goblins were trying to block the big hole with planks and stones behind them. Sergeant Deni immediately pointed at the city gate: "Destroy them!"

"Ahhh!" The sergeants and crossbowmen rushed forward. More than a dozen hand crossbows crowded at the city gate and fired a row of crossbow bolts. The goblins were hit by arrows one after another. The kingdom knight Hex shouted: "Reload, retreat." , move forward with good ammunition!"

The soldiers who were reloading retreated continuously. The soldiers who had loaded their crossbows crowded into the hole in the city gate, aiming and shooting. The goblins who wanted to block the city gate suffered heavy casualties.

"We can't hold it anymore, we can't hold it anymore!" The goblins tried many times to repair the holes in the city gate, but to no avail. Their morale collapsed. The serf soldiers raised the simple battering ram they made and struck hard. The ground hit the vital part of the city gate, and the wood that tied the gate made a painful sound of breaking.

The city gate fell, and a large group of knights errant and sergeants took the lead in charging into the green-skinned fortress. They shouted the name of the lady and brutally destroyed all the living creatures they saw. The serf infantry regiment followed closely behind, and the Gobs Lin was not a creature with strong combat power. After a series of battles, the serf infantry were no longer afraid of the beasts and goblins. The sporadic resistance in the fortress was quickly overwhelmed by the tide of human armies, and there were still people eager for loot. The wood elves and dwarves also joined in.

"The Goblins have nowhere to escape, Lord Angron." A stone's throw away from the city fortress, Holy Grail Knight Armand said happily towards Angron.

The white bear skin behind Angron was covered with snow. He was holding a large package in his hand, which contained vibranium - the strongest metal currently known in the old world: "Very good, the purpose of this training has been achieved." , and my goal was achieved.”

"I'll leave the rest of the follow-up arrangements to you, Armand. I'll be right here. Clean the battlefield as soon as possible and burn down the fortress. Then we can break camp and retreat. After this battle, there are not ten greenskins and beastmen in Chalon Forest. I won't be able to recover for decades." Angron nodded calmly: "Go, don't let down my brother's trust."

"Don't you, Your Excellency Angron, go take a look?" Armand mounted his pure-blooded elf war horse and asked one last question: "You are the general appointed by His Excellency the Earl."

"Ha~ My brother asked me to come so that I could become a mountain. A mountain will not move. If the mountain moves, the war will have been lost." Angron picked up his bottle and put it on The waiting Kislev Vodka is crystal clear, and snowflakes fall on it, just like the beautiful snow scene in winter: "Go."

"Yes!" Angron was not a Knight of the Holy Grail, but Armand was well aware of the strength of the man in front of him, so the flag officer and deputy general stopped talking and started galloping.

Angron raised his head and drank "tons and tons" of vodka in one gulp, then stretched out his big hand to wipe his mouth clean. After losing the Butcher's Nail, the World Eater Primarch had already realized the wisdom and prudent strategy. You can better achieve the goals you want.

"It's such a comfortable life." The flaming stimulation of vodka made Angron feel more comfortable. He looked at the green-skinned fortress burning with fire and smiled.

…………

At seven o'clock in the evening, a small banquet was held in the count's castle. The banquet was held in the hall of the castle. The servants lit the stove, and the host and guests gathered around the long table, enjoying themselves happily.

A dozen griffon knights lined up on Ryan's left. Most of them had beards and wore imperial aristocratic costumes. They all had a fierce and fierce aura. There was a yellow griffon symbol on the red and white shield. , the leader is none other than Ryan’s sworn brother, Count Anton Ferdinand of the Griffin.

On Ryan's right side is his fiancée Sulia, and then a total of twelve Holy Grail Knights. They are the Holy Grail Knights sent to protect the safety of the Lake God Witch Morgiana. They have various family crests, only the Holy Grail ones. The signs are exactly the same.

Servants lined up to bring food. The butler Katzenberg came up first, bringing bread and butter, followed by the cupboy and his assistant, bringing wine and beer.

"I prayed to the lady. I will not and cannot express my opinion, Anton." Ryan sat at the main seat of the banquet. The bright magic chandelier illuminated the entire hall. The Earl was well-dressed and spoke with a tone of unknown meaning. Looking at his sworn brother, he said: "I am the divinely chosen champion of the ladies. I cannot act arbitrarily."

Anton was stunned for a while, then quickly nodded in understanding: "I understand, I understand."

If any knight told Count Griffin that this was the meaning of the Lake Fairy, Anton would definitely think that the other party was talking nonsense, but if it was Ryan who said this, Anton would definitely believe it.

According to the empire’s intelligence network, Ryan is deeply favored by the gods. As the patron saint of the Knight Kingdom, the Lake Fairy has appeared by his side or performed miracles many times. Originally, Ivan also tried to introduce a partner to Ryan. While looking for a candidate, news came here that Ryan was engaged.

Anton turned his attention to Sulia again. The noble and moving female knight was the legitimate daughter of Francois, Duke of Winford, and was married to her by the Oracle of the Lake Fairy. Even if it was based on Anton's own choice of spouse. According to standards, Marquis Sulia is also a top-notch match, but the Fairy of the Lake married such a beautiful daughter of a great nobleman to Ryan, which speaks volumes.

The dark elf maid Olika brought an iron plate with tomato Tyrell noodles, a half-boiled egg, and a large piece of snowflake steak. The snowflake steak was tender and moderately fat. In addition, there were also other things on the table. There is Bagman beer for the dwarves and exquisite snacks for the wood elves.

This is not only something that the Imperial Griffin Knights have never tasted, but even the Holy Grail Knights who have been stationed here for a long time have never tasted these delicacies. Everyone was talking and laughing. The Holy Grail Knights have good relations with many knights in the Empire. .

"Can I take the liberty to ask, what is the will of the lady in the lake..." Anton whispered to Ryan again: "I have no intention of prying into the oracle, what I mean is..."

"I will remain silent and neutral in this war, Anton." Ryan forked a piece of snowflake steak and bit his ears with Anton: "Madam does not want to see human beings internal conflict, but I am not allowed to oppose Mr. Casfan. The first Duke of Palavon, Agilgal, is one of the twelve first-generation Holy Grail Knights, and the Palavon family has a long history in the kingdom."

Several thoughts passed through Anton's mind, and he nodded reluctantly: "I know you tried your best, Ryan, and the result is not bad, but can you convince the Dukes, especially Lord Berhemond and Francis? Monsieur Francois remains neutral?"

He needed Ryan to bring out some dry goods, otherwise he would not be able to go back and deliver the work.

Ryan looked thoughtful as he ate his beef in silence.

Anton was also very calm, and both of them fell into silence.

At the banquet, the Holy Grail Knights and the Gryphon Knights were fighting for wine. They were eating meat. A few Holy Grail Knights could eat a whole pig's meat and a whole barrel of wine if they got together. If Ryan hadn't been promoted to earl, the family would The cause is great, but he really doesn't have the capital to let these Holy Grail Knights eat freely.

As the hostess of the castle, Sulia skillfully coordinated all the people at the banquet and turned many small conflicts into invisible. The noble dress moved lightly, and all the knights at the banquet were willing to give face to the hostess. , everyone enjoys it.

The female knight turned around and came to Anton: "Brother Anton, for the health of you and everyone, please let us drink this cup to the full."

"Okay!" Anton didn't say much. With the help of the servant, he drank a glass of wine: "Salute to you, Mrs. Sulia."

"Salute to you, my sworn brother!" The female knight held up the goblet with a smile on her face. She just took a sip, with a slight blush on her ivory-like skin, as if she was too drunk.

After finishing the glass, the female knight leaned against Ryan naturally and said casually: "Your Excellency Anton, please understand Ryan's difficulties. There are some things that are difficult for him to decide. He is just a count and can be used to convince the Duke. There’s not a lot of stuff.”

Ryan squeezed Sulia's hand gently as if he was dissatisfied, and said something in her ear complainingly.

The actions of the unmarried couple could not be hidden from Anton's eyes, and he somewhat understood what Ryan meant.

Earl Griffin waved towards the Griffin Knights: "Bring that!"

"Yes!" Two gryphon knights who seemed to have drunk too much immediately regained their clarity and rationality.

Ryan looked at Anton with doubtful eyes.

"Ryan, I know this time things are a bit troublesome. It's really difficult for you to be caught between us, so I will never treat you badly." There was a faint smile on Anton's face: "Come this time, I brought you a good thing ~ Do you want to know what it is?"

Two gryphon knights pushed a huge square box in from the outside. Anton raised his hand and motioned for everyone to take off the black cloth.

"This is?!"

guess, what is this? Hey hey hey, I just won’t say it.
