Section 30 The Flames of the Royal Capital

Before Roschabal could assemble the knights of the bandit brigade, Delan took Cook and the guards and disappeared into the night in a blink of an eye.

The knights of the bandit brigade were still packing their belongings, and Miller rode home as soon as possible. The Yuguan has been broken, and the entire kingdom is in danger. Miller told his parents to flee into the surrounding mountains and forests, and before leaving, Miller reached out and handed his father a large bag of gold coins, and he turned around and returned to the camp.

Miller also planned to flee with his father and mother, for he had promised to stay with Cook forever, and that they would be good brothers who would never be separated.

Torches were everywhere in the night, and after receiving the news of the loss of Yuguan, the entire town of Uba was in chaos. The road was full of fleeing people, women and children, desperately fleeing to the north side of Fengdu, and the panic around them was like the end of the world.

Miller and Rossabal's team was different, not only did they not flee from the direction of the royal capital, but they rode their horses to the royal capital frantically.

Under the cover of night, Miller's party was not badly lucky, and they met the people of the Knights of Fengdu in the mountains and forests east of the royal capital. Led by the Knights, Miller and Rossabar found Cook and DeLan, who stayed here.

Miller shouted from afar, "Cook, why haven't you entered the city yet, what are you doing standing here?" ”

Hearing Miller's shout, Cook looked back at him in a daze, and two lines of tears were clearly visible.

Deran hurried over, and replied to Miller in a low voice, "Don't shout, the royal capital has long been surrounded by barbarians, and Cook is going to kill him like crazy, so I will stop him." ”

Suddenly, Cook waved his long sword, pointed at the royal capital not far from the foot of the mountain, and said: "Roshabal, Delan he dare not go, do you dare to kill with me to return to the royal capital." ”

Rossabar was stunned, and he looked at the older Deran in a daze, for whom the experienced knight could give him better hints.

De Lan obviously didn't agree to do this, and he shook his head slowly at Rosbar, meaning that he couldn't let Cook come so brutely.

Roschabal didn't know what was going on, and he walked quickly to Cook's side, looking down on the royal capital at the foot of the mountain from the widest vantage point of view.

In the dark night, the royal capital in the distance was full of black and oppressive human heads, judging from the tall catapults, this army of barbarians. The torches covered the entire flat ground, and the number seemed terrifying, and the number would never be less than ten thousand.

But the number of people is not the key, Roschabar is hot-blooded, he feels that there may be hope, it is worth killing to the death. But as he looked into the capital, he immediately despaired. There was a fire in every corner of the royal capital, and the screams were incessant, and it was clear that the barbarians had already attacked the royal capital, and it was already too late.

Cook stood at the top of the mountain, he looked at the royal capital sadly, tears could not stop flowing down, and the grief and indignation in his heart made him bitter.

There is no need to ask Miller to know that Cook's mother is obviously still in the city, otherwise Cook would not have stayed in such a dangerous place at this time.

Seeing Cook's mood so heavy, Miller's mood was also very uncomfortable! He knew how painful it was for him to lose his parents suddenly, and nothing he said to him now, it was up to Cook to bear it himself, and he had to get through it on his own.

The royal capital, which has experienced 302 years of ups and downs, has never been captured in history. The city's tall buildings, once magnificent and famous, and its bustling streets were once bustling with people, but now they are being ruthlessly destroyed by barbarians. This horrific sight stung the eyes of every Knight, and the seeds of revenge were planted deep in their hearts.

In July 470 of the Neth calendar, with the death of the king and many princes, the loss of Yuguan and the fall of the royal capital, the knight kingdom, which had been in the mainland for hundreds of years, was officially declared extinct.

A few hours ago everyone was just talking about war, thinking that all those things were far away from them, and now they are instantly enslaved, and it all came too quickly. The fall of the royal capital has made everyone grief, even Miller, who usually cares least about the kingdom, is also heartbroken! Miller couldn't bear to witness the destruction of the king, so he pulled Cook and said, "Okay, don't look at it, what's so good about it." ”

However, Cook pushed Miller away, and he gritted his teeth and said: "I want to see all this carefully and carefully, and I want to see with my own eyes how these barbarians have destroyed our royal capital, so that I can better remember this humiliation!" This is a blood feud between me and the Tubis, and this feud is incompatible. One day I will make them understand that what they have done here today will be repaid by them in the future. ”

Cook's words were exhilarating and powerful, revealing an infinite hatred for the barbarians, which stirred up the blood of the crowd with grief and indignation.

Hearing Cook say this, everyone leaned over and stared at the bloody disaster with Cook. They seem to be like Cook, who have experienced all this with angry eyes, remembering today's humiliation!

Infected Miller clenched his fists, he stared at the rolling flames around the royal capital, and said with great anger: "Don't worry, Cook, it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, let them wait and see!" When we make a comeback, we must make them double this blood debt! I, Miller, are here today and swear that as long as I have a breath left, I will kill all these beasts. ”

He had never seen Miller so enthusiastic, Cook listened to it with great enthusiasm, and soon he came to his senses, and immediately asked Deran, "Lord Deran, why did we choose to go to Dragon City?" And not the Northland? ”

De Lan replied seriously: "Although Fengdu has the powerful Northland Fortress as the last barrier, the Duke of Borunte of Fengdu has also been killed in battle. At the moment, only Margaret Thatcher, the Duke of Dragon City, can only be trusted, and now the kingdom is only he who can take charge alone, and with his appeal, we can continue to compete with the barbarians! Now that Yuguan and the king have fallen, the royal family has no descendants, and the rest of our knights will go to Dragon City to gather, and only by joining the command of Lord Thatcher will we have a chance to fight the barbarians to the death. ”

At this time, one of the guards ran up to the top of the mountain out of breath and hurriedly reported: "Lord Teran, the barbarians have sent a black knight to pounce on us, and it is estimated that they will rush to attack the northern kingdom overnight!" Their army will soon arrive here, so please make a decision as soon as possible. ”

Delan immediately said loudly: "The barbarians are about to attack the Northern Holy Land, there will be danger here soon, everyone must evacuate immediately, and all of them must rush to Dragon City." ”

The situation was urgent, and Deran did not allow Cook to make another decision, signaling the knights to force Cook to retreat.

Cook stretched out his hand to stop the guard, and said very seriously: "Slow, since you are going to Dragon City round, you must bring Robiter." Now that Robit is the only one left in the First Duke's Palace, we can't leave him alone. ”

Deran nodded after hearing this, and then he analyzed: "The barbarians must have also sent a large army to the south to attack, and there are not many knights stationed in Reesburg and Ritunburg, and it is also very dangerous over there. If you want to go to Fort Ritun to get Robit out, you have to travel lightly, and you can't go to so many people. ”

After saying that, Teran ordered: "Roshabal, you are responsible for taking my knight team and Lord Cook's bandit brigade to Dragon City from the direction of Cobilon on the east side. There are many of you, and you must get out of the sight of the barbarians, so it will go a little better. ”

Rossabar refused: "No, I want to accompany Cook to Ritunburg, or Lord Teran personally lead the team to Dragon City!" ”

Seeing that Rossabar had a different opinion, Delan approached Rossabar and said with a serious face: "Young man, wait until you have killed a hundred barbarians before you say this to me." Your task now is to take the remaining knights of our Royal Capital Knights and rush to Dragon City from the direction of Cobilon for me immediately. ”

Delan's tone was very stern, and there was no chance to refute Roshabal.

Roschabal took one last look at Cook, and reluctantly descended the mountain, gathering the knights to set off quickly.

In order to speed up the journey, Delan took only four guards with him, and urged Cook and Miller to get on their horses and set off immediately. They divided into two groups and ran quickly in the direction of the east and southeast sides.

However, the vast majority of the population did not know where to flee, and fled in droves along the main road, towards the nearest Leesburg on the south side. The road to Reesburg is crowded with refugees from north to south, carrying torches to drive horses, horses and livestock, women and children. Is the fugitive flow of people winding along the road like a long red dragon in the middle of the night, beside the Knight River, is Reesburg really safe? People don't know it, it's just that they can escape for a day, even if death comes later.

In the midst of the refugees, suddenly the crowd on the north side erupted in exclamation, and all the refugees couldn't help but look back. I saw that the fire in the royal capital in the distance suddenly became larger, and a huge flame whirred and devoured everything in the city, causing the crowd to scream! The fire was raging, billowing smoke in the moonlight, and the end of the smoke and flames went straight into the sky, and the entire northern sky was completely illuminated.

An old man in the crowd cried loudly: "I have lived all my life, and I have never seen such a big fire!" These barbarians who deserve to kill a thousand knives are simply inferior to beasts! A good royal capital, they want to burn it down! Everywhere they went, they had to kill, loot and burn them all, which was clearly to wipe out all of our Knights. Where are you, O supreme gods, where is the Heavens, where is the conscience! ”

The old man's cry caused everyone to cry out and sigh at the tragic fate of their people.
