In front of the collapsed fortress, there was a ruin, and the Knights of the Apocalypse, who had counted the casualties, were in a mess. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

They hadn't encountered this kind of situation for a long time, and they were actually taken advantage of by the other party to lead into a trap by using their careless hearts. This is unacceptable to the proud, as a gray army, they have always completed the task at the lowest cost when they are hidden in the dark, but this time they actually paid such a price.

Even Urban, who was known for his calmness, could not contain the anger in his heart, he had been a knight chief for ten years, and these subordinates had followed him for ten years, but this time several people died in their previous negligence.

"Your Excellency Urban...... We're now—" Crement was beside Urban, with a tyrannical element in his eyes, he was the hottest of the four knights, and the most murderous. Normally, Urban would have restrained him, but now it seems that there is no need for this, after all, the original order of the cardinal was to completely destroy the city.

"It's time to make them pay." Urban's eyes were filled with coldness, which shocked the two knights, Heathcot and Leo. Although the man had always been suave, they knew it was just a performance. In fact, this man, once in that state, was more ruthless than anyone else, especially when he saw the heavy losses of his men.

Now no one can stop him from taking revenge on the city.

And at this moment, they received an emergency call from the periphery?!

"Your Excellency Urban, Your Excellency Urban!"

It was Andrea's voice, which seemed to be very anxious as if something had happened.

"What's wrong?" Urban, who was slightly stunned, didn't expect the other party to take the initiative to call him, and immediately responded. What's going on? Could it be that the man Dandoro wants to be secretly restrained? Now, Urban is even more dissatisfied with the flag bearer who put them in charge of the main attack while the Swiss Guards stand by and watch coldly, and what exactly does the other party want to do at this time?

But he heard news that he couldn't believe.

"Your Excellency Urban, Lord Flag Bearer has lost contact!" Andrea, as the deputy commander of the operation, was only in name only, and was responsible for assisting Dandoro, but the sudden disappearance of the flag bearer, who had lost contact with him, caused him to panic completely.

You must know that Dandoro is an incomparably noble existence in the Holy See, in addition to his family background, the flag officer himself also means that he is likely to be recognized by the Secretariat, and there is no doubt that he will become a core cardinal in the future, even if he is elected as the next pope. At this time, if there is nothing to do, Andrea can't imagine what the consequences will be......

"What did you say?" Urban also gasped and was taken aback. Although they are all gifted knights, their status has changed dramatically, Dandolo is a nobleman and they are commoners, not even commoners. The underground powers, which were not even recognized as legal, either continued to serve in the Inquisition after they retired, or they were simply abandoned and did not have to be monitored by the Holy See for the rest of their lives. It can be said that even if all four knight captains are killed, in the eyes of the cardinal, they are not as important as Dandoro alone.

"Tsk-what happened?" Urban also lost his cool and couldn't help but become impatient.

"It seems that we have encountered some strong enemy." Originally, Andrea was also very worried about Dandoro's appearance, after all, he insisted on being alone, and it would be bad if he encountered some traps. However, Dandoro seemed very confident, believing that he also had the strength to fight against the Knight King, and even fought against him, completely ignoring Andrea's persuasion. Seeing that the young flag bearer was so persistent, coupled with the belief that the Knights of the Apocalypse could definitely quickly suppress the entire city of Trebizond, and that they could provide support even in case of danger, Andrea had no choice but to compromise.

However, the worst thing happened, the huge explosion just now temporarily interrupted the communication, and the contact with Dandoro was completely impossible. Even if you don't have to speculate, you can guess that Dandoro is now more than lucky.

"So what do you need us to do now?" Urban knew the gravity of the situation, and knew that if Dandoro could be put in danger, whatever it was would be a great threat, and his men would be in danger. "If His Excellency Dandoro disappears, Ma Shanzi may not be a wise move."

"I can receive a faint signal from the flag bearer's car [St. Moses], and now it is located east of the city of Trebizond, please attack immediately, and we will follow here." Andrea, who then made the promise, seemed very anxious, Dandoro did not know whether he was alive or dead, and every second of delay was a great risk.

"Understood, let's go at once." Urban is not in a position to refuse, and although this will give the Trabizons more time to evacuate, Dandoro's status is important and the cardinal will never tolerate it.

This is the difference between the noble nobles and them, even if there is a faint anger in their hearts, but reason still makes Urban have to suppress the anger in his heart.

It seems that the other party also did this on purpose, with the intention of attracting them to the past, although it was a conspiracy, but Urban could not ignore it.

"Your Excellency Urban, are you going to let us intercept those people while you go rescue Your Excellency the Flag Bearer?" Heathcoat asked, in that case, would it be enough for him to delay a few knights with him!

Urban, however, shook his head and rejected his colleague's proposal, for the simple reason of avoiding a pitfall. Although the other party wanted them to make this choice, Urban's subordinates would not dare to take risks with him anyway, and if they were not careful, they might be ambushed by the other party, which Urban definitely did not want to see.

Seeing that Urban was so persistent, Heath Cote also understood for a while that he couldn't convince the other party, and nodded and said, "Understood." ”

This man had the same experience as them, they were all "orphans" with no official status, who had undergone brutal trials in the Academy, and had also undergone inhuman transformations in the Perpetual Heavenly Machine, so that they could drive a war machine to change their fate. But Urban was different from them, this man was much more "old" than them, he was nearly thirty years old, and the members of the Knights of the Apocalypse had basically retired before the age of twenty-five, because injuries forced them to do so, and this was the fate of most people. And this man proved his worth with his strong will and ability, so Urban is still the chief knight of the Knights of the Apocalypse. And he also has to value his subordinates more than ever, and he can't accept any fearless sacrifice.

"All the Knights!" Urban gave the order.

At the end of the day, all the knights straightened up and replied, "Here! ”

"Get ready to attack!" The man's voice was low, and his knights were once again on the attack, and nothing could stop them when they struck with all their might, for they were the Inquisitors of Doom.

……

"Get out of the way!" At this time, Sylvia looked at the people in front of her with great anger, the death of her grandfather had made the girl have no idea of calming down at all, the feeling of sadness was heartbreaking, and the short knife in her hand trembled slightly.

However, the young officers who stood in front of Sylvia also knew that if she was in the way, she would not hesitate to wave the knife in her hand, and at this time they were more worried about the safety of Her Royal Highness.

"Please calm down, Your Highness! His Majesty Anglos would never want to see this! ”

"Go away, you all go away for me!" The heartbroken girl couldn't care so much anymore, and Sylvia wielded her dagger weakly in mid-air, even though she knew that her grandfather would never survive, but this was the only way to vent the pain in her heart.

The pain in her heart gradually settled, and Sylvia only felt that she seemed to have a hole in her heart that could never be repaired, and turned her gaze to the short knife in her hand, the bright blade of which reflected her pale face like a mirror.

Immediately, Sylvia turned the blade around her slender white neck, and she thought of ending her life.

"Don't, Your Highness!" The frightened officers pounced, and it was too late to see that everything was going on.

However, a light figure was one step faster than theirs, and the short knife in Sylvia's hand was clenched tightly by a hand at the last moment.

"This is your Royal Highness? That's bad! Your king paid the price of death, and I don't want his successor to be like this, right? The woman said disdainfully, and Elenor didn't care about the wound on her hand, and snatched the short knife from Sylvia's hand with great speed, and then landed her backhand on the white face of the princess.

"Smack-"

Although Elenor is a woman, her palm is no less powerful than a man, and this just woke up the confused Sylvia.

The red marks on her face made the once extremely proud but now lost soul of the princess finally have a trace of clarity in her mind, and she finally woke up. At this time, she is not only the granddaughter of Angelos, but also the last royal family of Trebizond, and if she also dies, there is really no one to fulfill the last will of that old man.

I saw that in an instant, Sylvia's originally dim eyes regained their brightness, and she saw that the woman standing in front of her was Eileno whom she had met before. I saw that all around, the officers of the military department were stunned by the scene just now, and they were also vigilantly looking at this strange woman for a while.

But Elenor didn't take it to heart at all, and said coldly: "Get out of here now, your time is running out." The Knight King can give you very little time. ”

As Elennor watched, they saw a large number of refugees still lining up to board the steam steamer, which had little space left. Unexpectedly, those nobles did not leave.

"That's the effort of His Royal Highness the Knight King...... Sylvia immediately realized how the nobles could have come back if it weren't for Constance Dante. And aren't they paying all this to fulfill their old wishes? If you die like this, it will undoubtedly be a violation of all sacrifices.

"Of course, I think His Royal Highness the Knight King was really full of hope for this place at first, otherwise he wouldn't have paid that price. If you don't want to let him down, don't be so willful. Elenor replied coldly.

Wiping away her tears, Elenor nodded.

On the other side, far from the city of Trebizond, the people aboard the battleship Leviathan could still see the flames burning in the city in the distance.

"Brother Constance Dante......" Ekarina nervously hugged herself with both hands, knowing that now Constance Dante was fighting alone, alone. And everyone was under surveillance, and the vigilant Rose guards looked nervously at the masked men in black, after all, they were all members of the Holy See, and they really couldn't be trusted.

Looking at the burning city, Ekarina also hoped that God would bless the man. Although it was already dawn, and there was already a touch of fish belly in the east, the war-torn city of Trebizon was completely like it was in another world.

"Don't worry, if it were him, he could have saved himself in a dangerous situation. We have always believed that Lady Luck is by his side. A woman walked up to Ekarina's side at some point and said quietly, not as if she was comforting the girl, but indeed convinced.

And she is none other than Vivian, who lost contact with the Kingdom of Trebizond in the war and almost made everyone think that she was killed in battle?!

……

"I didn't expect you to be saved by the Pope's people." General Merrides couldn't help but sigh, and sitting across from him was another man who had survived the catastrophe - Berhis.

The two were not on the deck with the others, but were drinking sullen in the room, and it was Belthes who had driven the [Force Angel] to rescue Merides. He and Vivien were besieged by Admiral Simon's deliberate arrangement, but were rescued by Elenor, who was also rushing to the East, and arrived in Trabizond only to find that the city was on the verge of collapse.

Berthes nodded, "It's ironic, but in that situation, there was no other choice. ”

"I don't blame you, you didn't do anything wrong. But His Highness seems to have made some deal with that woman, and you know something, Berhis? The shrewd old man said quietly, and that was the key point.
