The plan to raid Mangdunkou could have been said to have gone very smoothly. Elven Krees used a special arrow with an oily substance from the roots of the old oak tree of the Danse Forest to block the Kentan guards who wore cold hedrons and might use magic to resist, while Kaegon excitedly raised his two plate axes and rushed forward to reap the fruits of victory.

But nine times out of ten, life is not as good as expected, and the soldiers guarding the pass are not as easy to deal with as Krees imagined, even if they don't have cold crystals, even if they have the presence of oily substances from the roots of the old oak tree, they can still use jaw-dropping and powerful magic. The poor dwarf became a living target for them to show off his abilities, and was so bombarded with several magic missiles that Kegong was caught off guard and fell to the ground before he could even scream.

Chris complains in the shadows, and the situation is so desperate that he is forced to use his skills as a ranger. I saw that the palms of his hands were facing the ground, and he was chanting words in his mouth, and after waiting for a while, a dense mass of vines appeared in the rocky bushes. Krees shouted, "Go!" and the vines swayed slowly, drifting to the place where the Kagene had fallen, like a pair of dexterous hands, wrapping the dwarf tightly in front of him, on the left and right, up and down, and then dragging the dwarf to the city of Birti.

Kreese himself, taking advantage of the fact that he had not yet been discovered by the soldiers stationed there, quietly returned from the cliff and informed His Highness Albert of this sudden change.

Xiao Ah was deeply affectionate, turned over his horse, and ran back to Birti City directly.

As the sky began to lighten, Albert did not care about resting, and immediately asked the Crawford brothers to check on Kagun's injuries. The guards of the city of Birti were at first frightened and curious, and the unconscious dwarf had actually floated down from the sky, and the soldiers of both the soldiers of the kingdom of Destinipe and the soldiers of the Duchy of Borot were all talking. In order to prevent Albert from being overly sad and to prevent the morale of the army from fluctuating, Tarun hurriedly put a stop to these rumors, and the violators were immediately executed.

When Bishop Mirière came to visit, the Crawford brothers had asked the Count to help him send the best doctors in the city to examine and treat Cayenne's injuries. When the Count was convinced, he tried his best to get a doctor in his hands, and on the other hand, he secretly told Neo, who had been taught by Cortés, so that he could prepare to act. And it was only after receiving this instruction that Neo was ready to move.

Kagun's injuries were already terrifying on the outside, his left leg was confirmed to be broken, and two ribs were broken, and if it weren't for the vines tightly entangled in his body, he would have died of blood loss.

The doctor's medical skills were quite good, and he instructed the people not to move the Cagen lightly, but to feed him some liquid food regularly. His judgment was that although the dwarf was badly wounded, as long as he took care of it, he would be able to recover as normal in time.

Krees couldn't help but cry tears of self-reproach on the side, and the thief Best had already ducked to the side and cried loudly. Albert is grateful to the elves for saving their lives, and he hopes that Krees will stay and help him, which is a mutually beneficial thing for the two of them.

The Elven Ranger hesitated at first, but when he looked at Kagun, who was still unconscious, he made up his mind and vowed to avenge the dwarf.

Albert received the news from Mirière that Princess Claudia had been taken away by Neo, which was supposed to be a big deal, but Kaigan seemed to have a higher status in his heart, and if it weren't for Tarun coming to remind him, Little Ah would have almost forgotten about the princess.

He now faces a choice, whether to stay here and guard the badly wounded Kaigun, or to rush to the Earl's Court and rescue the princess from Neo. Tarren Crawford's words woke him up: "Your Highness, Kaigen's injury is now a private matter, and the doctor has also said that as long as he is well recuperated, he will recover." On the princess's side, it is a hundred thousand urgent business, if Neo's plot succeeds, we will be in a total passive situation, this situation no one wants to see, if Cagen regains consciousness, he will definitely complain. His Royal Highness and Kai Gong have a love of life and death, and they should know the priority of the matter, so please think twice. ”

Albert understood the good intentions of the military advisor, buried his brotherly affection for Cagun, and took a different stance, preparing to go to the Count's palace with Bishop Mirière.

It was not too late for them to arrive, and the old Count was lying on his bed and telling Princess Claudia something. Albert was not informed when he first arrived, and the same was true when he entered the door this time. But the reasons for these two times are very different. The first time he came, he was arrogant, and he wanted to give the earl a dismount, so as to deter the other party from the momentum and prevent him from underestimating his youth. The reason why he didn't wait for the announcement and hurriedly entered this time was because he was worried about Princess Claudia.

Neo saw Mirière and Albert coming together, and suddenly felt a little panic in his heart, in order to hide his true thoughts, he took the initiative to talk to Albert: "Your Highness, you have come at the right time, the Count is ready for me to take the princess out of the city of Birti, after all, this is now the front line, if something happens, it is likely to hurt the princess." ”

"The city of Birti is guarded by the soldiers of the Principality of Destini, and the elite soldiers of my Duchy of Borot are maintained outside, so the Count's worries are too much!" Albert snapped, the tone mainly for Neo.

The old earl was also very frightened when he saw that Borot's son had come uninvited again, so he explained: "Your Highness, my family has an old mansion on Taiping Mountain, southwest of the city of Birti, where there are still people in my family who take care of and live there. Master Neo is kind-hearted and sincere, and he is willing to send the little girl safely on my behalf. ”

"Neo was sent to me by the Pisius Sect as reinforcements. The hospitality of Mistress Pisius is still fresh in my memory. Lord Neo is worthy of his confidant, and his heart is very pious, and he always wants to do some good deeds. Albert said as he lit up Mirière in front of him and said, "You Cortes and Polymaths have always had a dislike for each other, so why don't you start with this incident and be considerate of each other!"

Mirière and Neo glanced at each other, and both looked at Albert in amazement, for they could not understand what was in his gourd.

His Highness smiled and explained, "Both of you are concerned about the spiritual well-being of the people, and of course all this must be built on a material basis. It is not for nothing that there are people who live in hardship and are spiritually fulfilled, but after all, they are a minority. Princess Claudia, as a daughter, is indeed extremely inappropriate to be on this front line. I think so, don't argue, I'll be a middleman and put this matter to rest. ”

"What do you mean?" asked Neo alone.

"My lord, how far is Mount Taiping?" Albert did not answer immediately, but turned to face the Count.

"More than a hundred miles. ”

"Well, more than a hundred miles, it's not far away, it's not close. Earl, how is your condition?"

"It's not necessarily worse, but it's not improving. ”

"It didn't get worse, it didn't get better. Albert nodded, then turned to Claudia and said, "Princess, I know that you are very difficult to give up with your father. It's more than a hundred miles away, and if something bad happens, will you still have time to rush back from Taiping Mountain?"

Claudia was reluctant to go from the beginning, although she was not aware of Neo's tricks, but out of concern for her father, her heart could not be put down.

She doesn't have a good impression of Xiao A, but this question is related to her own interests, so she can't answer truthfully: "Definitely not, Taiping Mountain is really a bit far away, and I only went to it a few times when I was a child." Then she complained to the old earl, "Father, why do you suddenly want to send me there?

"Princess. Neo said, "I shouldn't have said this, but the old Earl can't rest assured of you." At present, the situation is delicate, you are the only hope of the country, please think twice, you must focus on the overall situation!"

The Cortesians had something to say, and Albert and Talen Crawford knew it in their hearts.

Albert immediately responded: "Of course, the current situation is very delicate, and some people would think that the Taiping Mountain, which is more than a hundred miles away, is safe, and the city of Birti, which is surrounded by the elite soldiers of the Duchy of Borot, is dangerous. I don't know how he came to this conclusion. ”

Neo was also out of the way at this time, and he asked sharply: "Your Highness, as soon as your generals came to this city, they asked the Count to surrender power and give them the city, has this happened?"

"Yes, of course. Tarren Crawford said without hesitation, "As the military advisor of His Royal Highness Albert, of course, I have to think about the overall situation of the war. The old earl was incompetent and ill for a long time, and at the moment when the great enemy of the Kentan Kingdom was present, we waited for the emperor's decree to travel thousands of miles to the west to quell the rebellion. The foundation is unstable, the people's hearts are undecided, the city of Birti is a place to be rushed, the so-called generals are not subject to the orders of the king, whether it is His Majesty the Emperor or His Royal Highness Albert, they are all benevolent people, but the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing, if the city of Birti is in charge of this earl, it will definitely not be able to stop the ambition of the Kentan Kingdom......"

"Then it is easy to say, the earl is now in internal and external troubles, you rely on the emperor's prestige, so that his life is worse than death, is it safe for the princess to stay in the city?" Neo did not wait for him to finish, and hurriedly threw out the words he had prepared a long time ago.

With a smile on his face, Tarun said to everyone: "Indeed, we have threatened the Earl, and even His Highness has been coaxed by us to seize the power of the Earl. But His Royal Highness Albert is not an ordinary person after all, he is young, but he is invincible, he said to me in private, although the old earl has no good governance, but after all, so many years have passed, there is no merit and hard work. We can't take advantage of other people's danger and pull other people's things into our own homes. He also specifically said that Princess Claudia was as beautiful as a flower, and he would never hurt such a delicate soul. The old earl was her only reliance, and he knew it better than anyone else. ”

The Count of Destiny listened intently from his bed, and a few tears could not help welling up in his eyes, and he said slowly to the people: "Since everyone has broken the skylight and said something bright, then I will also speak my heart." I have done nothing in my life, and I ended up where I am now, and that is also my own fault. The only thing I am worried about now is my daughter, and whoever you are, if you can promise to take care of my daughter and find her a good home, I will be willing to give her the title and the city of Birti with both hands. ”

"Dad, why are you so confused. The reason why they haven't dared to attack you yet is because of your knighthood. If you give up your power now, you will not only make the world laugh, but also give these careerists the opportunity to take the throne justifiably!" Claudia also persuaded with tears.

Seeing that the matter was deadlocked, Bishop Mirière on the side said a few words, and the situation turned around again.

Find out what he said, and listen to the next breakdown.
