Chapter 48: The Neutron Sword

After the crisis was resolved, the Li retreated to the northern end of the Mitchell Line, and the high-ranking magicians sent by the Pope were responsible for rebuilding the defense line and casting an even more vicious curse, which was ineffective against the Terrans, and specialized in restraining the orc bloodline.

As long as the orcs of the Li tribe dare to cross the line, their skin will first rot, and then spontaneously combust on the spot, and finally explode to death.

King Monty mobilized the Golden Knights, then this war was a must-win situation, Carol planned to take the opportunity to grab some military achievements, but he didn't expect to pounce, and he couldn't scare Gladstone, so he could only collect his troops and leave.

Gladstone was once the god of war in the army who killed with a sword, and he has the Twelve-Star Commander Knight Tattoo, which is currently the highest-ranking military rank, the only one in the entire kingdom, and all active knights have this highest honor.

Most of the Knights worshipped Gladstone far more than King Monty and the Pope.

Moreover, whenever a large-scale war breaks out between the Monty Kingdom and the Orcs, the king and the Pope will issue an emergency battle order at the same time, and the whole country will enter a state of first-level alert, and the major cities must form a coalition in accordance with their obligations and unconditionally hand over all military power for centralized management.

And the position of supreme commander can only be held by Gladstone, and even King Monty is not qualified.

His Medal of the Crown is also earned by relying on military exploits on the battlefield, only the Gladstone family is not hereditary among the five major city ruling families, and Carol was originally a nobleman, and he is used to being a bickering minister, and he does not dare to face Gladstone head-on if he is given a hundred dares.

When the two armies met in Laika Town, they were afraid of Gladstone, so they withdrew in a hurry.

Even though the two sides were evenly matched, Carroll still didn't dare to make a rough move with Gladstone.

When all the reinforcements from Planet City and Sunflame Tower were withdrawn, Gladstone deliberately retained the Beta City Lord of Whale Landing Island and held a banquet to entertain the 4,000 knights she had brought.

When Petersburg was in crisis, he sent letters to the Planet City and the Sun Flame Tower many times, but he did not ask for help from Whale Fall Island.

On the one hand, because there is a vertical and horizontal strait between Whale Island and the territory of the Monti Kingdom, the transportation is not convenient, and you can only rely on bamboo rafts to travel, on the other hand, there are no young men on Whale Island, all of them are women, and their combat effectiveness is very weak, and there is not even a full number of knights.

To reproduce, you can only rely on pit abduction to lure men from other main cities to Whale Fall Island, or buy healthy slaves at a high price.

Of course, once you land on the island, you don't want to leave in this life, you can't enjoy the beauty, and it's true that you will die.

In the end, Astral City and Sunflame Tower sat idly by, and Gladstone only waited for 4,000 reinforcements led by the Lord of Beta himself.

In return, in addition to the feast, Gladstone also gave them food seeds and weapons and baggage, and sent the most elite knights to help Whale Fall Island reproduce.

After sending off the Beta Lord, Gladstone has to face even more difficult trouble.

The 80,000 gold armor sent by King Monty did not have the slightest intention of retreating, but instead set up camp outside the city of Petersburg.

"What the hell, go and call Layton to me, and ask him what Monty wants to do?

"Don't be angry, Lord Gladstone, I am also acting on orders, and His Majesty the King asked me to take Princess Leah back to the royal city. ”

Facing Gladstone, Leiden never dared to look him in the eye, and explained with a shudder, "I know your temper, I don't dare to ask you for Princess Leah, and I can't go against the king's wishes, so I have to garrison outside the city, and when you are willing to entrust the princess to us, then I dare to withdraw the knights to the royal city." ”

"What if I don't want to?" said Gladstone, his face dark.

"Gladstone City Lord, please think twice, the coming-of-age ceremony is imminent, don't delay, before leaving, the king asked me to tell you that he will personally investigate the mastermind behind the kidnapping of Princess Leia, once discovered, no matter who it is, directly beheaded. ”

Cold sweat was pouring down General Layton's forehead, and he was still trying to reason with Gladstone.

"Uncle, don't embarrass General Layton, let me follow the Golden Knights back to the royal city. Leah changed into a purple robe and stepped out from behind the screen, "There are golden armor and magicians along the way, so don't worry." ”

"In that case, then good, Chen Feng, Leah will ask you. ”

The coming-of-age ceremony is the key to determining whether Leah will become the new king, and Gladstone doesn't want to delay her future.

But he believes in Chen Feng's strength, with him, Paulia is worry-free.

Gladstone walked to the city lord's throne, took down a beautifully carved short sword, and handed it to Chen Feng, "This sword is called the Neutron Sword, it is my personal sword, and it can mobilize all the sword-wielding knights in the country in case of emergency. ”

"Neutron Sword?"

Everyone present exclaimed, including Dika and Leiden, both of them had a five-star knight tattoo, and they didn't even have the qualifications to touch the sword, but now this sword belonged to Chen Feng.

This Oriental man doesn't even have a knight tattoo! But now he can use the neutron sword to mobilize lieutenants below the five-star tattoo at will, and even the brigadier commander above the five-star tattoo has to give him a few thin faces.

The eyes of envy, jealousy and hatred invariably floated towards Chen Feng.

In front of everyone, Chen Feng took the neutron sword, nodded and said, "Please rest assured, the sword is here, I am here, and the princess is here." ”

After Luan received Princess Leah, the Golden Knights immediately closed their camp and rushed back to the royal city of Monty in the starry night, for fear of delaying the coming-of-age ceremony.

"This sword, beautifully made, must be worth a lot of money. Chen Feng played with the neutron sword and praised it, "I think it must be worth more than gold and silver." ”

"The value of the Neutron Sword is not measured in money, it is faith, you know? except for the Templars, all the sword-wielding knights in the country have to obey it, and in a sense, you are now the supreme commander with millions of troops. ”

General Leiden was afraid of the Neutron Sword, and his attitude towards Chen Feng became respectful.

"What a bunker!" Chen Feng carefully wrapped the neutron sword in canvas.

In addition to being able to dispatch troops, it can also help the sword-wielder avoid the death penalty once, which is also a compliment from the king and the pope to the supreme commander of the coalition army. Seeing the neutron sword, Layton's eyes glowed golden, and he really wanted to reach out and touch it, but he was afraid that it would tarnish the sword's divine might.

"Is it so tough? Then I have to keep it well, I can save my life at a critical moment." ”

According to General Layton, the neutron sword is equivalent to a gold medal for avoiding death, and the death penalty is waived no matter how serious the crime is committed.

"You shouldn't really be Gladstone's own nephew, I used to be a dog who looked down on people, you must not be like me. General Leiden deliberately approached Chen Feng.

That's what is written on the archives of the Shenglan Academy of Magic, but General Leiden has never believed in Chen Feng's identity before, and treated him as a slave, but now that he thinks about it, he really doesn't know Taishan.

"Oh, I see, there is some unknown contradiction between Gladstone and King Monty, you can't rely on Gladstone's nobility to enter the palace directly, so you can only pretend to be a slave of Her Royal Highness the Princess. ”

As soon as Chen Feng thought about how to explain it, General Layton put his guess together.

"General Layton, you're really smart. Chen Feng didn't bother to explain, so he had to follow his meaning.

"That's a must, our grades in school are also among the top few, in the future in the palace, please do not hesitate to tell me if you have anything. ”

After figuring out Chen Feng's identity, Leiden was not ambiguous and hugged his thighs decisively.
