Chapter 640: Before the decisive battle, the royal capital attacked and defended
When Ji Ya opened her eyes, she found that several people around her were looking at her with concern, even Prince Sauron and Mia.
Ziyun first asked, "Senior sister, are you okay?"
Ji Ya shook her head, and Mia, who had been watching silently, also looked at Ji Ya carefully, she always knew that Prince Sauron liked Ji Ya, in the few days they experienced together, Prince Sauron shouted Ji Ya's name in his sleep, the sky-high light just now shone in all directions, Miss Ji Ya almost appeared in the posture of a goddess, maybe she could become an immortal like the saint of Suran Island in the future, so that future generations can sing the existence, thinking of this Mia felt very inferior.
The Lone Lamp Man stepped forward and asked, "Miss Ji Ya, how did you pull out this sword?" What Su Lan Island couldn't do, Ji Ya did it, which couldn't help but make the Lone Lamp Man want to explore the mystery.
Ji Ya didn't tell all the secrets, after all, this is the treasure of the Lingshan Sect, she just said: "This is a treasure lost by a Xuanmen senior, I am familiar with her juniors and know some tricks." ”
The lonely lamp man naturally understood that Ji Ya was not telling the truth, if he had a previous temperament, he would definitely get to the bottom of it, but now that he has lived in Da Zhou for a long time, he naturally understands some taboos, and this is not the time to say this, but Ji Ya's words at least prove that it takes special techniques to use this artifact. No wonder no one has been able to use it for so many years.
The most important thing at the moment is how to stop the ambition of the Green Earl and the rampaging monsters, relying on a single artifact and the seven people present may be a little reluctant, after the exchange of information, Prince Sauron has also known that Abbot Teemo of the Southern Monastery has been ambushed and killed. Calculating the time, Grand Duke Wald's army should also arrive in the royal capital, and perhaps the tragic offensive and defensive battle of the royal capital has already begun.
As for where to go, Roger made a suggestion: "We can go to the Southern Abbey, and then ask the Southern Guard for help." ”
Prince Sauron's eyes lit up, the southern monastery is not as good as the northern abbey, but it was also established to guard against monsters, so compared to the academic atmosphere of the northern monastery, the south is more like a fortress, and there must be many magic monks who can be used as combat power. The Southern Guard Army was left behind at the beginning of the founding of the country, in order to resist the first wave of attacks when the monsters returned. Therefore, the Southern Guard Army is in a state of readiness all year round, and when it is at its highest, the Guard Army can reach 10,000 people. However, for hundreds of years, only scattered monsters appeared, and it was enough to give them to the general adventure, and the Southern Guard Army was transferred a lot, coupled with the recent orc landing, the Southern Guard Army can be said to have reached a low point, but even so, there should still be two thousand people, this is the rule set by the founding king, and the Southern Guard Army cannot be less than two thousand people, let alone be eliminated.
Although a lot of things have happened recently, but in just a few days, the situation in various places is relatively chaotic, there are all rumors, Roger, as an honor student of the northern convent, has gone to the south for academic exchanges, and the magic monks in the south naturally recognize him. And Prince Sauron also accompanied his father on a southern tour and delegated troops, and the generals in the south also knew him, so the news of his 'death' may not have passed. In this way, he may be able to gather a force of more than 3,000 people, plus Ji Ya and the sword in the lake, and take advantage of the situation when the Grand Duke Wald and the Green Earl are inextricably fighting, maybe there is a possibility of a reversal.
The plan has been formulated, and if you have a goal, you can take the next step, Prince Sauron and the Lone Lamp Man have a grudge, but in this case, dealing with monsters is the first place, but listening to the reason why the Lone Lamp Man hates the royal family, Prince Sauron's worldview has been brushed again. I didn't expect my ancestor to be such a despicable villain. He didn't doubt the words of the lonely lamp man at all, not to mention that it was reasonable and convincing, even if he was more than hearty, Prince Sauron also understood the actions of his ancestors, after all, he was educated by the royal family since he was a child, and he was not as great and upright as a knight family, this is not the way to be a king. Prince Sauron is not dull compared to his ancestors, but his heart is not so dark.
But Miss Mia is really panicked, the founder of the country is actually this kind of person?
The group of seven rushed to the Southern Monastery, and the only one who was in a bad mood among several people was probably Ziyun, and this time the more and more gossip was managed, the more and more he was managed. But now we can only continue, so let's face the battle honestly.
……
Outside the royal capital, the army of Grand Duke Wald has already begun today's attack, crowds, ladders, siege vehicles are pouring towards the royal capital, and then looking at the soldiers on the city wall, the resistance is not very fierce.
Originally, fighting a civil war was not something that everyone wanted to see, and now that the old king and the eldest prince are dead, can the little prince really stabilize the situation? Is there any loss to ordinary people by letting the grand duke ascend the throne? Out of this kind of thinking, the will to fight of the royal capital guards, which were originally not high in combat effectiveness, has also dropped to a freezing point.
Some people even thought that it was almost impossible for the strength of the royal capital to resist the Grand Duke, and it was certainly not worth it if he gave his life in vain for the doomed result. The most terrible thing is that if he behaves positively, once the grand duke enters the city and liquidates, he is not more unlucky, so the defenders of the city want to fight back several times, if it is not for the existence of the warlord's team, I am afraid that the king has already been broken. Now these old and weak soldiers are more of a fish for self-preservation.
This situation was also a bit unexpected by Wald, he thought that even if the king capital was only an empty shell, but with the accumulation and reinforcement of these hundreds of years, no matter how strong his army was, it would not be possible to take it in a day or two. As a result, on the second day of the siege, there were several opportunities to break the city, although they were all stopped in the end, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that the king was already crumbling.
In the palace, a pile of crystal leeches was wriggling, and a man who looked like an officer came in and said, "My lord, it looks like it's about to die." ”
The crystal leech flipped open, and the Green Count stepped forward from below, now he had regained his monstrous appearance, two pointed ears had grown, his pale face was almost bloodless, and his dark green hair hung down behind his shoulders.
Now the people in the city are panicking, the war outside the city is fierce, and the disappeared people have long been ignored by everyone, and the Green Earl has commanded a large number of crystal leeches to attack the residents of the royal capital in the shadows these nights, and some have even killed their entire families. After the crystal leeches sucked them into skin, there were naturally soldiers disguised as monsters to deal with the aftermath, and the Green Earl let the energy absorbed by the crystal leeches transfer to himself every day, these are pure and clean biological energy, the essence of human beings, and in just a few days, his strength is no less than the current Ji Ya. But this is also a point of no return, a container is forcibly filled with an excess of water, and the result can only be burst. But now in this situation, his mission is almost complete, and he may be able to draw an end to this half-human, half-demon life.
The officer who came to report was not a human, but a monster in disguise, and now that the entire palace was under the control of the Green Earl, the officer said, "My lord, things are worse than we expected. ”
The Green Earl sneered: "Human beings are really unreliable, sooner or later there will be problems with the grass on the wall, and it is useless to rely on money alone." "At the beginning, these soldiers could also rely on the authority of the royal family, but in the face of the huge power of the Grand Duke, these soldiers were also shaken, after all, the main force and descendants of the royal family were basically pulled to the East China Sea Fortress, and the remaining soldiers were not loyal to anyone?
Anyway, monsters don't need treasures, even if they scatter all the treasury of Sulan Island, the Green Earl won't feel distressed.
With the anxiety of the war in the past two days, more and more soldiers are reluctant to fight, anyway, they have a large amount of money to buy to welcome the Grand Duke into the city, and take the money to enjoy themselves with peace of mind? Even the Green Earl's overseer team is almost out of control.
The Green Earl wanted to delay for a day, but the fluctuation of people's hearts was greater than he expected, so he said: "You can start the plan, we are ready to attack the city tonight, I believe our army is also about to arrive." ”
"Yes, I will command it. The officer answered.
……
The group of seven people who had obtained the sword in the lake rushed to the Southern Monastery, which was originally not far from the monastery, and several of them had mounted to walk, and it only took half a day's work to see the Southern Monastery like a fortress in the distance.
But the scene at this moment shocked a few people, although the southern monastery is generally complete, but the walls have long been mottled, and the entire monastery is surrounded by thousands of strange beasts, and the strange beasts that can fly in mid-air are constantly harassing the soldiers who defend the wall.
From time to time, fireballs and lightning flew out of the walls, people kept wailing and falling off the walls, and strange beasts kept burning and falling in the air.
As expected, the Lone Lamp Man said, "Sure enough, they also made a move on the Southern Abbey." ”
Roger was a little anxious: "Let's go and help." "The southern monasteries must not be allowed to suffer the same fate as the north.
Prince Sauron was also preparing to use the power of the Southern Monastery to restore his kingdom, and now was the right moment, he drew his sword and prepared to attack.
Ziyun was a little worried: "There are so many monsters, do we have a chance of winning?"
The lone lamp man said: "Maybe not before, but now with the sword in the lake in hand, plus the girl's cultivation, these low-end monsters are not opponents." He believed that this power, especially Ji Ya, knew how to operate, and he also wanted to evaluate the power of this artifact.
Since everyone has no opinion, Ziyun and Hao Le also nodded to Ji Ya in approval, although they are still full of worries, but the three senior sisters and brothers live and die together, and there is no reason to retreat alone, so everyone rushed towards the beast tide together.
