Chapter 24: The Battle to the Death (I)

"These bastards dare to kill me. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

Ronnie, with a slight bruise on his cheeks, patted the footprints on his robe. Just before, he and Alex, who was driving a dragon chariot, were beaten by the captain of the guarded Rivado when they were about to break through the forbidden city gate.

"Alright, Captain Rivado, you've been merciful. Alex, who was driving the car, let the sun shine on his smooth and smooth scalp, "If he had the heart to stop it, we should still be at the city gate now." ā€

He dared. Ronnie glared and scolded, "I'll write his report letter to the headquarters when I go back, and I helped him stand guard last time he skipped work and drank." ā€

"And what's going on?" Alex nodded, remembering it in his heart.

"Eh, let's continue talking about my sister. Ronnie, who had already learned more or less about the information, stepped across the shelves and made it to Alex's side.

In order to meet the needs of the crusade team, the entire special training dragon that was still idle in the royal capital has been swept away by the Kur repair in the recent period.

I rummaged through my own breeding house, but I could only find these old cargo dragons. Ronnie can only endure this bumpy journey.

"Didn't the teacher mention anything to you in the letter?"

"No, just let me wake up and go look for you, and take you to the streets of Livons. Alex looked at Ronnie, "You haven't heard anything from Master Kursius lately?"

"Yes. Ronnie shook his head and uttered the words in his heart, "As you know, there have been a lot of things going on in the kingdom lately. The Witch Sect, which has been hiding in the shadows, has been active since the king's election. ā€

"The knights of Rheinharut went to the south, and the Count of Rozvahl in the north also imposed martial law. I thought my sister had also accepted the plan of the Sage Society, after all, with my sister's talent, it would not be strange to be asked for anything in private. ā€

"Because it's the Valkyrie of the kingdom. Alex muttered that Kurxiu's prestige in the military had already made her a banner in her own right.

"Hurry up. Ronnie grimaced, rubbed his hands, and said with a little apprehension, "It should be able to catch up, Captain Rivado also said, and my sister has only passed for a long time." ā€

"Don't worry, I have a hunch that the teacher must be with Master Kurxiu. Alex's words were more effective than any comfort, and Ronnie couldn't help but smile on his face, just thinking that the teacher was there was enough to make him feel a lot more relaxed.

Just as Ronnie and Alex were on their way to the battlefield, many well-wishers in the royal capital also received changes about the Karsten family.

Priscilla, who was sitting in a comfortable and luxurious chair, was one of them, and Al in front of her relayed the information of Kursius one by one. Thinking of his arrogant queen, he waved his hand impatiently, with a look of disapproval.

"Do you want to take the head of the white whale and become an embellishment of her own merits? What else is going on?" Priscilla was still on her knees, and Priscilla had no interest in Cursius' actions.

"Well, Miss Princess, there's one more thing ......," Al scratched his helmet and said embarrassedly, "Ronnie and Alex have just passed through the city gates. And it is said that there is no one in the knight's house now. ā€

"Al. Priscilla, who stood up, looked at the guard with a headache, "Does your helmet have any side effects of lowering IQ? ā€

"I don't want to hear it from my master, Miss Princess. ā€

"Hmph, Smelt, prepare the car. ā€

Despite being just an old cargo dragon, Ronnie and the others arrived at the plain of Legis, and they were still in time. Before Alex could stop the dragon cart, Ronnie rolled over and jumped on the ground, running towards a few busy green figures in the distance.

Approaching, Ronnie glanced at the three people in front of him, two of whom he didn't know, but the last one, wearing a shirt with the 'Fanged Lion' family crest.

"Where's Master Kursius? where she is now. Ronnie asked the servant cleanly.

"Young Master Ronnie, why are you here!" the servant was also surprised by Ronnie's appearance, and subconsciously said, "Master Kurxiu is now in the base camp. ā€

"Where is the base camp?" Ronnie waved at the servant who was about to salute, and since the battle had not yet begun, it proved that his sister was still safe, which made his nervous heart completely relaxed.

"Fluffel's Tree of the Sages. The servant came up with a place name.

Ronnie nodded to Alex, who had just walked to the side, this place they all knew, the famous scenery on the plain of Legis, the big tree planted by the sage four hundred years ago, was a beautiful sight that many civilians wanted to see.

The two of them, who had settled down, walked side by side towards the Tree of the Sage. From time to time, you can see people busy with greenery, either arranging magic stone cannons or preparing defensive positions. The closer you get to the Philosopher's Tree, the more such scenes there are, and it seems to be a testament to the fierce battles they will face.

The Philosopher's Tree is a giant tree as tall as the front of it, a trunk that requires hundreds of people to hold hands to completely surround it, and several simple tents are set up at the bottom, and in the middle of the high canopy, there is an eerie mist that never dissipates.

By the time Ronnie reached the largest tent, he could see Kurtius walking out with his guards.

"I thought that leaving you alone at home would be a good way to convey what I mean. Kurxiu frowned, and looked at his brother who appeared rashly with a headache.

"I don't remember ever hearing you honestly when I was a child. Ronnie simply brushed the scoundrel and said with a big grin, "I'm here anyway, and you can't drive me away." ā€

"Lord Kursius. Alex silently saluted the superior, "I'm Alex of the Knights of the Guards. ā€

"Thank you for coming, Alex, and you Ronnie, remember not to trouble us. Kursius, who had dropped these words, walked past Ronnie with a cold face. Phyllis, who followed closely to his master's side, covered his mouth and snickered.

Ronnie, who could only shrug his shoulders helplessly, ran to Fili-chan's side with a thick face and asked quietly, "Fili-chan, have you seen my teacher?"

"Teacher?!" Phyllis pointed a finger to his lips, "Captain Arashi didn't show up. ā€

Ronnie and Alex looked at each other in surprise, could it be that the teacher was still on his way?

This confusion was set aside for the rest of the round. Circumnavigating the main battlefield, Kurxiu personally inspected all kinds of materials on one side, and the satisfied look on his face from time to time was similar to the cold face that had just faced Ronnie.

The supplies provided by Russell Fellowo, the great merchant of the kingdom, were placed in the closest place to the user under the able command of Kur Shu, and the logistics were arranged in an orderly manner.

Everything went on quietly in the passage of time. By the time the last of the afterglow faded into the horizon, the few bright stars began to flicker slightly.

A few hundred meters away from the camp, artillery fire rang out violently. Everyone in the tent reacted differently to this sudden sound, but they all looked at the silver glittering powder blooming in the sky in the distance.

With the sound of artillery fire, a soldier who had come to report walked into the tent and said to the top Kursiu, "Lord Kurshu, the camp in the East Corner has begun to fire the Temptation Stone as planned. ā€

"Yes. Kursius nodded and looked at Wilheim on his right, "Just keep the troops on standby, tell the team in the East Corner to keep the current firing order, and after entering the hour of the wind (nine o'clock in the evening), change it to fire the Enchanting Stone once in half an hour." ā€

"Yes!"
