"Civil strife?!"

In the castle of Rus, Olivia, the current king of the kingdom of Itnell, asked in surprise.

She sat in the king's leather chair, the quill pen on her fingers still resting on the paperwork, but her face did not have the relaxed expression it had before.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

A voice came from the King's Hall.

Ruby Lester, the palace butler, looked anxious, her hands clenched in front of her chest, and her black and white maid outfit trembled slightly from her breathing.

Behind Ruby stood Belzy, the chief of the city's defense forces who was in charge of the security of Haoyue City, and judging from the looks on the faces of the two people, it was not easy.

Armament Commander Betsy stepped forward, took a deep breath, and clasped his hands on the sides of his torso, "It is said that it was a rebellion launched by Grand Duke Shalom of the Yuyan Domain, and the number of troops outside Haoyue City exceeded 10,000 people, and the specific number and composition of troops are not yet clear. ”

"Yuiwa Collar ......"

Olivia's pupils shrank, and she immediately calmed down again.

She put her pen on the table and looked at the palace butler in front of her calmly.

"I was negligent."

She stood up with her hands on her desk, her eyes narrowing slightly.

"I should have thought of it."

Olivia's face was gloomy and cloudy, and she frowned, tapping a finger lightly on the tabletop.

"However, the walls of Haoyue City are deep, and with the defense of the magic tower, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, even if the army of the Xiyan Leader comes to attack, it should not be able to attack it." Olivia interface to.

"This ......"

The chief of the guard and the chief of the guard looked at each other, and stopped talking.

"Don't you say that the fortifications of Haoyue City are a fragile piece of garbage, and the army of the Xiyan Leader easily broke through the strong walls of more than a hundred years?"

Olivia's face changed, and the chief of armaments trembled in fright.

"Of course not Your Majesty. It's just ......"

"Just what?"

Betsy had a difficult look on his face, and said cautiously, "It's just that there was some accident, I don't know how the army of the Yuyan Leader appeared in the city, it seems that it has been planned for a long time, and when the army of the Xiyan Leader came to the city, the city gate was opened from the inside. ”

"What?!"

His Majesty's eyes widened, and if she had been able to keep calm when she had heard the word civil strife before, it was only when she heard the Armament Chief's words that the gates of the city were opened from the inside that the feeling of civil strife really became real.

By this time, Olivia had also realized the seriousness of the matter.

No, it's worse than she thought.

Olivia believes in the strength of the walls of Bright Moon City, but she also understands this truth-

Once the gates of the wall are opened, it is no longer defensive.

This kind of scene was enough to shake the entire Haoyue City, and it couldn't help but remind people of the night that was also urgent before.

"So what's going on now?" Olivia's eyes lit up, and he became extremely terrifying.

"The army of the Xiyan Leader has entered Haoyue City, and now the two sides are fighting." Betsy responded, "But we have a limited standing army, and we don't know how long we can hold out." ”

"What about the garrison of Haoyue City?"

"It's still scheduling, and it will take a while to fully arrive." Betsy said.

"What about the residents, and the safety of the temple, who will guarantee it?" Olivia asked in a snarling voice.

"Prime Minister Dilan has already led people to evacuate the residents," Ruby stepped forward, "Count Jewir has taken people to guard the temple, but the situation in the temple area is still unclear, and several archdukes, including the Duke of Shalom, don't know if they are still in the temple. ”

"Unless they can teleport, they should all be there."

Olivia nodded.

She paused for a second, then suddenly realized something.

A relaxed smile appeared on the face of His Majesty the King.

The fact that he could laugh in this situation surprised both Ruby and Betsy.

The two of them stared at His Majesty in front of them with wide eyes and puzzled.

"Shalom is a gentle man." Olivia let out a chuckle, "She wouldn't do it unless she had to." ”

Olivia stroked the back of her left hand with her right hand and said with a smile in her eyes, "So, she will definitely control this war in the shortest possible time and minimize the loss of the kingdom." ”

Olivia turned her head abruptly and looked out the window meaningfully.

"The target this time is me."

Ruby and Betsy shuddered as if they had been struck by lightning.

"If I were Shalom, I would have come here at all costs and slew the king in the castle before the garrison could come back."

Olivia said this, turning around.

She held the sword in her hand from the sword stand.

The blade of the sword shimmered with silver-white light, and the sword was sharp, and this sword had been by her side for a long time, like the closest family member.

"If that's the case, we're not going to let Shalom get his wish." Betsy stepped forward and placed her right hand on her chest, "We will definitely do our best to keep Your Majesty safe." ”

Olivia looked down at the longsword and didn't respond to her.

After a moment, His Majesty looked up, "Oh, by the way, Archduke Shalom's child, where is my Guard Pioneer Gilma Addington now?" ”

"Nowhere to be seen." Ruby turned her head sideways, with a look of regret, "I'm afraid that this time it should be Hima, she has been arranged by Shalom's side for too long." ”

"It's also difficult to determine the situation of the pro-guard now, so your majesty, you'd better stay here, and we'll make sure you're safe."

"And what about that guy?"

Ruby knew who the guy she was talking about, but ......

"I don't know, you know......" She frowned and shook her head slowly.

"I understand that she has the right to act autonomously." Olivia smiled.

She took a deep breath and slammed her sword into its scabbard and hung it at her waist.

"I need to meet her." Olivia said calmly.

"She?!"

Betsy's eyes were full of doubt, and she didn't quite understand who His Majesty was talking about.

Only the palace steward, who had followed the king for many years, reacted extremely quickly and immediately understood.

"It's too dangerous, Your Majesty." Ruby's voice trembled slightly, and her face was full of anxiety.

"If, as you just said, the Grand Duke of Shalom is here for you, wouldn't it be ...... you to go to her so rashly?"

"What?!" Hearing this, Betsy finally came to her senses, and when His Majesty the King said she just now, he was referring to the Grand Duke of Shalom.

"No way!"

The chief of armament stopped in front of the king, "We are responsible for your safety, I will not allow this to happen!" Your Majesty, please stay here in peace, for in a few more hours we will be able to put down this rebellion. ”

"Nope."

Olivia waved her hand calmly, "What shouldn't have happened today, it's my responsibility." ”

She stepped forward, almost pressed against Betsy's chest.

His Majesty reached out and put his hand around the back of Betsy's head and pressed his forehead against him.

"Your duty is to keep the entire city safe, and my job is to go to Shalom to quell the rebellion. We have our own role to play. ”
