Chapter 217: The Essence of the Dragon and the Wizarding World (Contract Battle)

As Zheng Ming shuttled across the battlefield with Adam's head in his hand, the news that Celtic's former Shadow of the Throne had reappeared and killed Adler's King Adam spread rapidly.

The Sergeant Adler, who was already at an absolute disadvantage, was in a big mess after hearing the news of his king's death, and his occupation was sharply reduced, and he barely held out for a while before being finally annihilated by the legions of the Celtic Kingdom. Since then, the last enemy of Adler has been defeated by the Celts.

Zheng Ming thought that the long battle of the dragon cavalry contract was over, and he had finally completed his goal of conquering various countries.

However, full of joy and anticipation, he learned the information about Celtic from Seon's mouth.

"What? Lancelot raised the flag of rebellion and captured the royal capital? Why? He's crazy? ”

For Zheng Ming's disbelief, Saion also had a deep understanding, and when he first heard this information, he also reacted in the same way as the other party.

"My lord, that's right. At first, it was because the queen betrayed the king, causing the inhabitants and nobles in the royal capital to decide to hang Queen Gwyna. According to later developments, it is likely that the one who had an affair with the queen was Lancelot. ”

Zheng Ming raised his eyebrows when he heard this, as he was worried about at the time, when Gwynna's betrayal of Arthur was leaked, it really caused chaos.

"Tsk, what does the king say? There's no way he could agree to hang Gwyna, right? ”

"The king was supporting the Tulip Territory to quell the rebellion of the Dorn, probably unaware. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been besieged by the rebellious Tulip family in the future......"

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Zheng Ming, who looked nervous.

"What? Arthur is under siege? Since when? How many enemy troops are there? How many people are there around her? ”

Zheng Ming's barrage of questions made Sai Weng a little stunned.

How could Naru-sama ever show such a concerned and eager expression to others?

While secretly envious of the friendship between the two, he comforted as softly as possible.

"Please be calm. The king is not in danger of life, he is rescued by Geralde, and according to the latest information, he is quelling the rebels in the country, intending to recapture the royal capital and queen. ”

Hearing Saion's next narration, Zheng Ming showed a sudden expression.

"Oh, no wonder you're choosing this time for a decisive battle."

"Yes, sir. I was also forced to be helpless, maybe by giving me two months, I could minimize the losses, but at that time, it happened that the king was besieged in Tulip family's territory, and I could only choose to settle the battle here as soon as possible. ”

"Good. Then you lead the army back as soon as possible. ”

"Adult ......"

Ignoring what he wanted to say, Zheng Ming couldn't wait to transform into a giant dragon form and break through the air.

"Well, that's it again...... Still like this! After all these years, do you only have the king in your heart? What is there about him that deserves your life? When...... Can you retract your gaze to the distant top of the mountain and look behind you? How often are those of us who are watching you? Even if it's just a moment......"

Seon looked at the figure in the sky that had disappeared into black spots, his face showed a look of loneliness, and he whispered.

"Seon, where is Naruto-sama? My men say he's with you. ”

Locke's elated voice came from afar, and he was followed by several generals who had rushed to hear the news.

Hearing this, Seon, who was disturbed, quickly retracted the expression on his face, and when he turned around again, his face was long gone.

"My lord, he has already set out one step ahead. Hurry up and prepare. We must hurry back to the kingdom as soon as possible to meet your lordship. ”

An indifferent voice came, and if Zheng Ming saw Saion's expression at this time, he would find that the expression was eight points similar to his usual appearance.

Is it to answer the lord, not to help the king?

Locke whispered in his heart, and then laughed heartily.

"Okay. Then let's have another good time, and when the war is over, we will find the boss to catch up. ”

After speaking, he hooked his shoulders and pulled the generals who came to leave in the direction of his own corps.

…………

On the other side, in the territory of the Celtic kingdom.

Because of the delay in the transmission of information, Zheng Ming obtained the information from Arthur and others a few days ago. Now they have led the army all the way to the royal capital.

Maybe it's because of herself, or maybe it's because she's known each other for many years, when Lancelot and Gwena stand on the wall and condescendingly communicate with her, her heart is full of mixed features.

The relationship between the three of them, she can't tell who is right and who is wrong, and although she can't agree with the other party's decision to rebel, she can understand it.

"Lancelot, give up resistance and surrender."

"Surrender? So that you can hang Gwynna, hang us? ”

Hearing Lancelot's sneer, Arthur's face changed, and then he apologized to the two of them seriously.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know I was going to hang Gwyna. I was furious that they crossed me to make a decision, and I want to thank you for saving Gwynna.

But rebellion will not solve the problem. Do you want to watch the war break out in your territory? Consider the Celtic people! The flames of war will burn down their homes, and they will lose their loved ones, friends, and even their own lives. Is this what you want to see? ”

"People...... People. Sick of it! You hypocrite. Then I'll ask you. What if your dear people want to kill your queen? What if they don't want you as king? What will you do? Do you want to choose the throne and queen, or your people? ”

"I'm not going to let that happen."

Arthur's earnestness was met with Lancelot's wanton ridicule.

"Hahaha, that's you, Arthur! Rigidly abide by the rules of knighthood.,Always naΓ―ve to think that as long as you work hard, you can succeed.。 But there are some things that can't be solved by effort alone. It's like when you get the golden scabbard and become a dragon knight, I can only watch you ascend to the throne in one step. ”

Speaking of which, Lancelot glanced affectionately at Gwyna beside him, and continued to yell at Arthur below.

"The holy weapon was robbed by you, the throne was inherited by you, it doesn't matter, I can choose other directions, I can still assist you willingly. But there is only one thing that does not work, Gwyna she is mine! I'm not going to let you hang her, and I'm not going to let her go.

Right now! I'm going to tell you what to do when someone wants to kill Gwynna. I'm going to let those naysayers die! Still don't get it? Only I can bring happiness to Gwyna. You? No way! ”

Lancelot's almost hysterical growl, as well as the implicit look in his eyes and contemptuous tone when he said the last sentence, all made Arthur a little stunned.

She didn't expect that Lancelot, who had always been gentle and personable, would also have such a side.

Does he love her more than I do? Can it bring her more happiness?

Thinking of this, Arthur couldn't help but look at Gwyna, but found that the other party's eyes avoided her gaze.

"Consider the kingdom, king. If Lancelot were king, with his extreme attitude, can you imagine how many people he would have killed? ”

Jaylander's whispered exhortation brought back Arthur's flying thoughts.

She restrained her mind and nodded at this hero who was obviously also from the Tulip family, but had been fighting for herself.

Arthur, who had agreed with Zheng Ming a long time ago, just wanted to stop the dispute. Even if she wins the duel and takes Gwena back, it won't be long before she passes the throne to her son, and they can go and live incognito.

So she took a deep breath and launched a duel with Lancelot on the city wall.

"I, King of the Celts, Lord of the Golden Scabbard, Dragon Knight, Descendant of the Red Dragon, Arthur Celtic Pendragon, challenge you to a duel. If you win, I can let you go with Gwena and the army, and if you fail, you will return my queen. ”

And all Lancelot wants is to be with Gwynna. So after hearing Arthur's invitation to a duel, he readily agreed.

"Good. I accept your duel. ”
