Chapter 214: Regent
Wind Castle.
The ruined city was in shambles, the corpses of demonic beasts and the corpses of human soldiers were mixed together, broken weapons, blood-stained banners, etc., all showed that this place had experienced a very cruel battle not long ago, and the whole city looked gloomy and tragic.
At this time, the tide of beasts was temporarily stopped, and a group of recruited people immediately went to the city, and their task was to clean the city head and make simple repairs to the city walls.
The corpses of the soldiers were transported to the city, where they were to be buried.
Suddenly, a group of knights slowly appeared, and the pedestrians immediately showed respectful expressions, and the soldiers who were patrolling and busy all bowed and saluted, with excited faces.
"See the Regent!"
The knight at the head immediately dismounted, and although he was wearing silver and white armor, his posture was extremely enchanting, which made people infinitely reverie.
"Excuse me, soldiers!"
Sally waved her hand slightly, and immediately glanced at the hundreds of corpses placed on the ground, as the regent of the Sunset City Kingdom, she had to personally inspect the beast tide every year.
Sally soon ascended to the top of the city, and two commanders, a man and a woman, came to her, and immediately bowed and saluted, "I have seen the queen!"
Sally nodded slightly, sighed lightly, and said, "How are the dead and injured today?"
The male commander was none other than Thor , he was dressed in a black magic robe and held a magic wand in his hand, and immediately said: "Queen, more than 350 ordinary soldiers and 39 knights were killed in the battle today, and more than 5,000 demonic beasts were killed, including 300 middle-level demonic beasts, one high-level demonic beast, and the rest were low-level demonic beasts. ”
Sally nodded slightly, and said, "Do the soldiers have any complaints?"
The female commander was dressed in tights, outlining her bumpy figure, but she saw a coldness on her face, and she said lightly: "There are a few people, but I killed them!"
"You...... Well, Audrey, I know you've always been unhappy that I've become regent, but now Sunset City must have a king, and as soon as Mars returns, I'll be free from the throne. Sally said with a gloomy face.
This is the fourth year of Mars's absence, and two years ago, in order to dispel the other six nations from prying eyes on Sunset City, Sally had no choice but to crown her as queen regent.
Even though it was for Sunset City, there are still some of Mars's loyal courtiers who do not approve of Sally's decision, including Audrey.
Although Audrey became Sally's chief bodyguard, Audrey did not approve of it, and only obeyed Mars's agreement.
Of course, the ministers of the cabinet and the nine ministries who supported him were all important ministers promoted by Mars, and as for those ministers and nobles who were already close to Mars, they had been secretly opposed, but Sally had never given them a chance to resist.
Sally's identity is still the dean of the Martial Arts Academy, Elsha, and is the queen of Mars, of course, as the regent continues to implement Mars's reform policies in the Sunset City Kingdom, the regent's position is increasingly consolidated, and his reputation exceeds that of Mars, the king.
Although many ministers were very unconvinced by the regent's heart, it has to be said that after Sally continued and intensified the implementation of the new policy, the Sunset Kingdom has far surpassed the other six countries in terms of military strength and economy.
Especially the economy, with the support of the Alliance, Sunset City's economy has surpassed the other six countries combined, which is also Sally's biggest achievement as the regent, and it is also the confidence that Sunset City now dares to face the other six countries.
With such a strong strength, some ministers wanted to expand their territory, but Sally refused, because Mars had set the rules for the development of Sunset City and would not invade other kingdoms.
What's more, Sally knew where Mars went, and she believed that Mars, whether it was three years, or five years, or even ten years and a hundred years, she was willing to wait, and she was determined to keep Sunset City for Mars.
Sally inspected the city, looking at the ruined city walls, she frowned slightly, this year's beast tide is more ferocious than ever, she doesn't know the reason, the previous beast tide will not have high-level demonic beasts.
And this year, high-level demonic beasts have already appeared, and if it weren't for the fact that there are many high-level knights and high-level magicians in Sunset City, Wind Castle might have been razed to the ground.
Sally leaned on the wall, looking to the west, three years ago, Mars left her and entered the Holy Spring space, although she learned something in that temple, but after all, it was only a fragment, what the future would be, she didn't know, she only hoped that Mars would come back as soon as possible and return to her side.
No matter what the big break, no matter what the throne, as long as they can live happily for the rest of their lives, she is content.
Sally shook her head slightly, this kind of idea is too unrealistic, she has been determined to become a paladin since she was a child and make a contribution to the development of mankind, how can she slack off because of this setback?
"Mars, are you still alive?" Sally murmured.
Suddenly, Sally's phoenix eyes narrowed, and she immediately said, "Ring the bell, the beast tide is coming!"
Both Thor and Audrey looked west, but couldn't see anything, their faces were embarrassed, but even more shocked by Sally's strength, Thor immediately shouted, "Ring the bell, ring the bell!"
The soldiers heard the commander shout like this, and soon, the alarm bell rang.
A group of soldiers led by the knight ascended to the top of the city, and the soldiers next to the fortress cannon were immediately ready, and their eyes all looked at the enchanting figure on the high platform, it was the regent, Elsa, and the queen of Sunset City.
Time didn't wait long, a black line of about a thousand meters quickly appeared from the distant western Gobi, the dust rolled, the beast roared and shook the sky, and there were two giant demonic beasts about ten meters high in between.
"Two high-level demonic beasts?" Sally frowned slightly.
Most of the high-level magical beasts are basically stronger than the high-level mid-level magicians and knights, and some high-level magical beasts are even comparable to the high-level peak magicians and knights.
And such a huge high-level demonic beast, Sally thinks of herself to solve one one, but what about the remaining one?
In today's Sunset City, except for her and Frank who are big knights, the others are all under the peak of the high rank, and Frank is in charge of the overall situation in the royal capital and can't leave easily, so she is the only big knight who defends the Wind Castle.
"Queen, is something happening?" Thor on the side noticed that Sally's face did not look good.
Sally paused slightly, and said, "Prepare the Elven Magic Cannon!"
Thor was shocked in his heart, and immediately asked: "But the elf magic cannon is still being tested, I'm afraid it's ......"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Sally, "We don't have time, go get ready!".
"Yes, Queen!" Thor immediately took the order.
And Sally immediately gave an order, "Order the three major legions of the Wind Fort Legion, the Royal Family Legion, and the Sunset Legion to go to the city to defend!"
