Chapter 271: A Night of Chaos

The crows hovered in the trees or in the sky in the castle, making a rattling sound, adding a lot of atmosphere to the death in the castle.

The corpses on the ground were densely packed, all of them were the guards of the castle and the pedestrians who could not be evaded, all of whom were slashed and killed by the Holy Grail Guardians, who sounded holy and merciful, but these nominal guardians of the Holy Grail were a group of veritable executioners.

The crows in the sky should be grateful to them for allowing this group of scavengers, who represent death and bad luck, to have this delicious meal today.

A dark cloud hung over the city of Camelot, and while they didn't point the finger at civilians and merchants, the killing was a deterrent.

The fear of death befell the heads of every resident of Camelot, and the knights and nobles who had been in the past might have been powerful and benevolent, but they could no longer save them.

"All-knowing, Almighty, great Father, save us! Let those damned executioners get the punishment they deserve! ”

A citizen huddled in his prayer room with his children and wife in his arms, fearing that the cruel executioners outside would rush in and kill his family.

The Duke of Vallar followed behind Captain Robella and looked excitedly at the castle in front of him, which was quite majestic in his grave respect.

With a crazy and eager smile on his face, the castle he had coveted for twenty years was finally in his pocket!

As the current king, Uther. The younger brother of King Pendragon, he was also once a noble prince who fascinated thousands of aristocratic maidens.

However, as the second son, his inheritance is not as good as that of King Uther, and King Uther far surpasses him in all aspects, so there is no doubt that he has no ability to compete for the throne at all.

However, due to his outstanding ability, coupled with the strong demand of the queen at the time, in the end Valar still got the title of duke.

Although the territory is not large, even about the same size as William's Comos Manor and Mendes Manor, he is still working hard to develop his territory, which is why he has saved so much wealth.

And he coveted the throne for more than twenty years, and finally showed a glimmer of hope for him because King Uther fell seriously ill and fell into a coma after Prince Arthur's birth four years ago.

And he is desperately developing during this time, doing everything he can, just to be able to win the throne of the Kingdom of Carmellot one day.

For this reason, he also deliberately climbed the high plant of the Astra Kingdom, hoping to get their help.

Don't look at the territory of the Camelot Kingdom is not big and the strength is not strong, but he and the mainland's first-class power Astra are from the same source.

It is even said that the kingdom of Acetra and the kingdom of Camelot were one kingdom at the beginning, and the thrones between the two countries seem to have some connection.

But it was just a legend, no one would take it seriously, and the kingdom of Camelot didn't dare to think about the throne of Astra.

Moreover, the kingdom of Astra has always been relatively righteous, taking Camelot as their country, and taking care of many things.

This time, if it weren't for the fact that the new king of the Astra Kingdom, King Leonac, had just been on the throne for two years and was in urgent need of financial relief, he would never have agreed to this extremely hostile plan.

Carmelott is close to the northern coast, and its fishing and farming industries are even more advanced than those of Astra, which is also located on the northern coast, so their citizens and national finances are relatively wealthy.

That's why the Duke of Valar had the capital to put forward the conditions for seizing the throne.

This operation was personally agreed upon by King Leonac of the Kingdom of Astra, and was carried out by the Commander of the Knights of the Holy Grail, Andon.

Then Commander Anton sent his deputy, Deputy Commander Robella, to command.

The Guardians of the Grail and the Knights of the Grail took advantage of the darkness of the night to conquer the walls with great ease, opening up the heavy and thick cost.

The Knights of the Holy Grail rushed through the gates, first clearing the castle of patrolling guards and armed infantry.

The Guardians of the Holy Grail, on the other hand, walked up to the city walls, relying on their sophisticated equipment and superb combat skills to clear the guards on the walls.

After clearing the walls, they went up to the castle and began to love the defenders of the entire castle.

Blood splattered, limbs flying, and brains jumping all over the ground, this terrifying scene seemed normal at this time, and the elite Holy Grail Guardians carried out a comprehensive crushing of the guards of the Carmellot Kingdom.

"Burn down the gates of the main castle!"

At the command of Captain Robella, the Grail Keepers placed all the cooking oil and lamp oil they had stolen from the residents' homes on the ground.

Then the soldiers of the Duke of Valar stepped forward to burn the city gates.

As the ultimate beneficiary, of course, the Duke of Valar could not be without any strength, this time he brought more than 300 armed infantry and more than 20 knights, which was already all his strength.

In the face of the one or two hundred arrows that fell from the top of the main castle, even the Duke of Vallar's troops suffered only a few casualties.

Nothing other than the stones and fuel thrown down from them can effectively damage them.

Soon, after paying almost a hundred casualties, the soldiers of the Duke of Valar finally smeared the walls with oil and set them on fire.

As the flames raged, the wooden gates of the main fort were badly damaged.

An hour later, the gates of the main castle finally collapsed like the last teeth of an old man in the dead of his life.

The destruction of the gates meant that the last line of defense of the main fortress had also been lost, and the Holy Grail Guardians outside the main fortress swarmed along the gap, one by one, like a raging tide.

Although the defenders in the main fortress fought back frantically under the leadership of the knights, the gap in combat power was irreparable, and they were still defeated by the Holy Grail Guardians.

"Lord Merlin! Think of a way! ”

The woman in the white luxurious robe said eagerly, and the knight in the red cloak beside him also looked at the old man Merlin with his eyes closed very eagerly.

Just when everyone in the room was as anxious as ants on a hot pot, Merlin suddenly spoke, and he said slowly to the red-robed knight in a non-hurried tone: "Bradian, now you go and bring Arthur and Alia!" ”

Moments later, Prince Arthur and Princess Alia, with small arms and legs, were brought into the room by Bradyne, carrying one in his hand.

The two children had puzzled faces on their innocent faces, and they didn't understand why they had to wake themselves up when they slept well, or in this way.

Looking at the two pink-carved children, Merlin rose from his chair and took Prince Arthur from Bradian's hands.

He walked to the bedside, looked at Prince Arthur in his arms, pointed to King Uther who was unconscious on the bed, and said, "Always remember that this is your father!" ”
