Chapter 169: Assemble
"Escaped? Wait, according to the report from the Adventurers' Guild, didn't you say you had eliminated it?"
Although everyone present had such worries in their hearts for a long time, they didn't expect it to be the case. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"I did give him the fatal blow, but what do I say? I don't think that guy would have died so easily, and no body or anything like that was found. ”
"You, if such a big thing happens, can't you submit the report before you come back? You are happy to surprise us every time?" the saint gave Ronald a blank look, as if she was also affected by the bad news that Ronald had brought.
"I'm not sensitive to paperwork or anything, you know I'm not the best at this, and what can be reported orally will never be written in writing, this is my life creed. ”
Ronald teased at the saint for a while, and then his face gradually became serious: "I heard that the Adventurers' Guild suffered heavy losses this time, what does the report over there say?"
"You were in Wengela City at the time, didn't you connect with the guild chief over there?"
"I did identify myself afterwards, but I was in a hurry to come back and report, so I didn't have time to ask more, just ......"
"Just?"
"It's just that Shi Lao said that this incident was not caused by that guy, it seems that I misunderstood. ”
"Indeed, judging from the report of the Adventurers' Association, it is a demon who is causing trouble in the border city this time. ”
"The devil? Could it be that guy killed the devil?"
"According to the report, this time the Adventurers Association lost a total of four A-class adventurers, the 'Poison Dark Fan', the 'Silent Sword', and the 'Blazing Spear' all died in the battle, and the 'Grim Reaper' was considered by the Association to be the murderer this time. ”
The girl clearly recited the lengthy report of the association, the demon is also a great danger to St. Ul, and now it seems that St. Ul is being attacked on all sides, and the situation has been extremely affected.
"Sure enough, the black-robed stranger is ......" Ronald recalled the situation at the time, the black stranger kidnapped Jasmine, it is said that he said it was to lure Ronald away, which directly caused Ronald to be unable to arrive at the battlefield in the first place.
When he arrived, there were only a few corpses of adventurers left in front of him, and he was furious, and only then did he fight with Honor.
"Catherine. ”
"What's wrong, Ronald? ”
"No, nothing, I was just wondering if we could stop attacking Bordertown. ”
"Are you crazy?!" the girl looked at Ronald incredulously, her eyes full of puzzlement.
"I'm not crazy, it's just that I've been in contact with that guy and it doesn't feel like he's a demon that will devour humans and destroy towns. ”
"Don't be stupid, Ronald, demons are demons, where are there good demons. Catherine interrupted the boy righteously.
"What's more, do you know what the dilemma our country is facing right now?"
The girl sighed, and she looked into Ronald's eyes and knew that Ronald had not thought about these deeper things at all.
"Border City is the westernmost town of Saint-Ul, and in the past, when the Abyss Demon King still existed, Saint-Ul just wanted to rely on Border City to monitor the labyrinth. ”
"But with the Demon King's annihilation, St. Ul took advantage of the location of the border city to declare the area, including the Abyss Forest, the territory of St. Ul. The forest, which was infested with monsters, also became the border between St. Ul and the Free Federation of Ledner to the west and the trading kingdom of Naine to the south. ”
"So what?"
"So, you are asking so, those two countries are eyeing the treasures of this abyssal labyrinth, and now that the border city has been destroyed, His Majesty has received a request from the two countries to send troops to help defeat the border city. ”
"Wow, they're so kind?"
"Of course it's not so kind, it's easy to ask the gods to send the gods, if they really let them succeed in the crusade against the demons in the border city, I'm afraid that not only the border city, but even the large territory of the Abyss Forest will change hands. ”
"So do you understand?Ronald, why are Your Majesty and I so anxious, we must take the border city before the situation becomes out of control, and reaffirm the sovereignty of St. Ul over that land, otherwise we will not only lose our territory, but even lead to war with our neighbors. ”
“…… I didn't expect the form to be so severe. Ronald couldn't help but bow his head when he heard the girl's words.
"Catherine, is there really no room for maneuver?"
"Nope. ”
"Whew, okay then. Ronald eventually gave up.
"I am the brave man of St. Ul, and it seems that I must do my duty, and although that fellow of Honoror showed in Wengela that he did not want to harm humanity, it cannot be ruled out that he was deceiving us. ”
"Oh, Ronald, don't show mercy next time. Beside Ronald, the blonde-haired Shining Knight looked at him with some dissatisfaction.
"No, Anua, I didn't release the water, like you said, that guy is really strong, and the reason why I said not to attack Border City is because I'm a little worried. ”
"What are you worried about? Even though there are only eight paladins left now, as long as we go into battle together, there will be no enemy that cannot be defeated, this was the case before, it is like this now, and it will be like this in the future, isn't it?"
"That's right, Ronald, and besides, there's the Adventurers' Guild to help. One of the youngest teenagers in attendance also spoke out to encourage Ronald.
Unfortunately, the white-robed girl ruthlessly interrupted her: "Wrong, Hammer Knight, according to the latest report, the Adventurers' Association has decided to withdraw from this battle. ”
"Eh, why?"
"Originally, the adventurers were not driven by the state, and this time we only made a commission in the name of His Majesty, but the events in Wengela City caused the adventurers' association to suffer heavy losses, so they are not willing to continue to lose. ”
"Cut, those adventurers, it's not patriotic at all. ”
"It should be said that this is the nature of adventurers, licking blood on the tip of the knife, but at the same time cherishing their own lives, it seems that this is indeed a tough battle. The Shining Knight whispered.
"Don't worry, I won't let you get hurt. ”
Ronald looked up at the crowd, and he smiled lightly: "Just leave the toughest guy to me." ”
"Haha, Ronald, don't underestimate us too much. ”
"That's it, we're also paladins, don't say these unlucky words. ”
"Be careful if I beat you up again. ”
The knights around him laughed and made a very angry look, and the older knight uncle couldn't hold his breath and slapped Ronald on the back.
"Alright, now is not the time to talk about that. The holy woman interrupted the frolic of the crowd.
"Next, including me, the Knights of the Holy King, the Knight of the Gray Sword, the Knight of the Radiance, the Knight of the Demon Seal, the Knight of the Sky, the Knight of the Iron Tooth, the Knight of the Silver Fang, and the Knight of the Heavy Hammer, please get ready, the troops of St. Ul have been assembled and will be heading for the border city in the near future. ”
