Lin Xiao witnessed the wedding of King Arthur and Queen Guinevere, who had always admired her, and on the wedding night, Artoria confessed to Guinevere that she was a daughter, although they eventually became close friends.
But Lin Xiao really couldn't imagine the mood of Gui Niweier, who was said to have admired her for ten years, and suddenly remembered that she had told Artoria when she was joking and chatting that the king would become a girl's dream lover, but she didn't expect it to come true.
After that, although King Arthur's wedding brought some life to Camelot, as predicted by King Humble before his death, the land of Britain began to slowly decline, and the harvest was decreasing every year, and even the surrounding area of Camelot was affected now.
After consulting with Merlin, Artoria decided to eradicate the alien race entrenched in Britain first, and in the same year the alien race also began to invade, and the crisis was far more simple, the Roman Empire, which had been too busy to take care of itself, finally quelled its own rebellion, and once again tried to bring the territory of Britain that had belonged to them into the colony, and sent a part of the army to invade it.
In the face of the crisis, Artoria did not panic and give up, she said: "I will annihilate all the foreign enemies who dare to step into Britain." β
After that, she set foot on the battlefield herself, and experienced as many as twelve battles in a row, and what is surprising and impressive is that all twelve battles were won.
The alien finally chose to surrender, vowing that as long as the king was still there, they would never set foot on the land of Britain, and this war, which relied on absolute heroes, finally subsided, and it seemed that Britain was finally about to become the peaceful country she dreamed of when she drew her sword.
But who knows? The damage suffered by a girl named King Arthur in the crusade against the alien race, in the war, in order to protect the island, it is common to extract food from small villages.
There were many opponents of the exploitation of the villages, but what could be done about it, the war would not talk about these things at all, but these acts of stripping the civilians of food for the knights tarnished the glory of being knights, although they did not understand that if the war was lost, there would be more victims, but they were stubbornly unwilling to accept it.
In their minds, what king of the world would burn down his own land and extract from his own people when he was an opponent of a foreign race?
Although it determines where the villagers will move, it cannot heal the hearts of the people who have been robbed of their hometownsγγγγγ But the king has to carry everything, probably, Artoria has no time to take care of these knights, and now she is desperate to drive out the aliens, so she disregards the ideas of the other knights, and handles all this perfectly, and therefore leaves a cold and ruthless evaluation.
After a battle, Tristan, the Knight of the Round Table, said to King Arthur: "I thought it was the glory of my life to follow you, and you used to show me by your own actions that the true attitude of being a knight, brave, strong, kind, forgiving, never thought for a moment of thought of others, but now it seems to have deviated from all thisγγγγγγγ β
In the end, he left a sentence: "King Arthur does not understand people's hearts." Then he left King Arthur.
Then several famous knights chose to leave King Arthur and return to their own territory, without the power of punishment, King Arthur accepted this fact, and regarded these knights as part of the rule, as a bait when fighting with aliens, although this was just for the victory of the war, but the king who was once called the knight king, has gradually deviated from the expectations of the knights, and was slowly feared and alienated by the knights.
This scene made Lin Xiao, a wait-and-see, very worried, what does it mean to not understand people's hearts! Obviously so gentle, so kindγγγγγγ In the inky sky, and the crimson hills covered in the dead, the heavy clouds had dissipated, announcing the end of the war, and there could be seen a lonely back, and the lonely sword that had long been stained red with bloodγγγγγ Even if he was not understood by others, feared by others, and alienated by others, the knight king still did not fall, dragging his tired figure, and continued to the next battlefieldγγγγγγγγγγ
After winning the war against the aliens, it wasn't long before Artoria began to deal with the powerful Roman Empire in the distance, and for this purpose she planned to go on an expedition to the Roman Empire, during which the unchaste relationship between the queen Guinevere, who had always admired her, and Lancelot, the knight of the Round Table, was also exposed, and Lancelot killed many knights and fled back to her own territory with Guinevereγγγγγ It turned out that when they were fighting with the aliens, the queen and Lancelot were very worried about King Arthur, and the two had contact because of this matter, and then sparked a spark of love.
This scene is in the room where Artoria confesses her identity to Guinevere in the royal city, and her expression is very complicated, it seems to be a blessing, and it seems to be melancholy, and then she mutters to herself:
"Everyone has the right to choose, not to mention their happiness. β
Perhaps she felt guilty for Guinevere, but in the end, Artoria chose to forgive them...
The victorious Red Dragon's heart did not change, after which she left behind the Knights of the Round Table Kai and Gawain, and the knight Mordred to protect Camelot, but she set off for Rome with her army, and finally won the war against Rome, and signed a peace pact with Rome.
Lin Xiao was also happy for her, but things changed beyond imagination, or was this a nightmare?
King Arthur was greeted by the news of the rebellion of the knight Mordred in collaboration with the seven clans and the princes of the eight directions.
By this time, Camelot had fallen, and the remaining Gawain and Kai had landed on the British Isles with King Arthur, but Mordred did not give up, and a fierce war broke out between the two sides.
However, this kind of civil war in Britain is completely meaningless, at least it has deviated from the ideal of King Arthur when he drew his sword.
The bloody battle of Britain, the roars of the battlefield, the wails, the clash of swords, are like a tragic symphony, which seems to set off the tragic ending of Artoria.
"This kind of civil war will only destroy Britain, please stop, we can have peace next. β
But the ugly desires of mankind do not pay attention to the inner voice of the king of Britain, as Merlin said, it is better to abandon people's hearts, because then they will not be harmed, and the bloody battle between the two sides has lasted for seven days, and the battlefield has shifted to the hill of Kamran.
The fierce clash between the two armies continued until dusk, and the kind of bloody and flesh-and-blood fight between cold weapons was cruel and ruthless, and if you didn't kill someone, you could only be killed.
Both sides were red-eyed, like wild monsters, and only when they killed all the enemies in their eyes would they give up.
Then there were only a handful of people alive, and the corpses had been piled up as high as a hill.
In the end, only two figures remained on the battlefield, and the rebel's sword shattered the king's helmet, and the king's sword pierced through the beating heart of the rebel's chest.
The scene in Lin Xiao's eyes was only a tired king who supported himself half-kneeling with a sword and a head of blond hair that was spread out. Artoria was lonely and half-kneeling, her eyes were empty, as if everything was over, as if all expectations had become empty, as if she could not believe what was in front of herγγγγγγγγγ
The legendary end seems to carry an irrepressible sadness that is enough to make tears fall from the corners of the eyesγγγγγγγγγγ
