Chapter Twenty-Six: Breaking into the Palace I

Having learned the lessons of the Orc War's demise, Stormwind's palace was built as a strong fortress to serve as a last stand of resistance in the event of another invasion.

The royal palace is surrounded by the Stormwind Royal Guard, which is no less elite than the Lordaeron Guards that Claudia once served.

Claudia closed her eyes and asked for the Light's help as she made her way to the gate, the angry maiden intent on trying to make a big deal out of it and see what King Varian would do.

The Holy Light around her responded quickly, warming her, and as always, many Light elements sank into her muscles, making her faster and more powerful.

A layer of sacred, pale golden light attached to the iron sword in her hand.

A group of guards quickly noticed the anomaly here, drew their weapons and guarded the approaching girl, and the officer led by the officer asked loudly, "What are you going to do?" Lay down your arms! ”

"I want to see Your Majesty!" The blonde girl whispered, she didn't stop her steps, she still walked forward firmly.

The officer looked at the blonde girl with her eyes closed, her face was still a little immature, but the rising momentum on her body gave him an extremely dangerous feeling.

He drew his long sword, gritted his teeth, and said, "Your Majesty, how can anyone see it, stop quickly, otherwise I will not be polite." ”

The blonde girl ignored him and continued to walk on her own.

"Up!" He no longer hesitated, swung his sword downwards with all his might, and the guards behind him swarmed him up and pounced on the beautiful figure.

Claudia's eyes opened instantly, and her momentum climbed to the peak.

Syllable!

She spun around and swung her sword, and the officer who rushed to the front was struck by her sword at the moment of contact, and flew out violently, knocking down two soldiers by the way.

With the help of the Light, Claudia was much faster than the soldiers, her light steps could easily avoid the attacks of these soldiers, and then she could smash a soldier to the ground with a single blow.

Soon, the soldiers lost their combat effectiveness, and the officers lying on the ground looked at the blonde girl who had crossed them and shouted anxiously: "There are invaders here!" ”

"There are invaders, Captain Saidan and they have been defeated!"

"Go shout General Marcus!"

"Quick, close the gates, set off fireworks."

The fortress was shaken, many people were in chaos, and countless noisy voices rang out, and the two steel gates were slowly closing.

Whew!

Claudia activated Valkyrie's blood, the lightning in her eyes and the golden wings of light behind her appeared, and she took a two-handed hammer that exuded a holy aura into her right hand, and the girl threw it at the city gate.

Hammer of Wrath!

Rumble!

A door with a deeply recessed hammer mark remained, and the door that had not yet closed was smashed open, and Claudia walked straight along the door, and the silver hand floated from a distance and flew back to hers.

Three rows of royal soldiers in blue armor and lion robes on their chests had been assembled in a short period of time, and this time no one was talking nonsense, and they directly raised their swords and rushed towards the blonde girl who came over.

“NOVA。” Claudia whispered a word.

In the next instant, a golden holy light shield centered on her and exploded, sending countless soldiers flying out and falling to the ground, letting out suppressed cries of pain.

The holy light on Claudia's body became more and more intense, and countless holy lights felt the pure light bloodline, and gathered around her with cheers, dyeing the girl's whole body golden.

Farther on the city wall, several dark heavy crossbows were pulled away by the soldiers with difficulty, and several giant arrows with the thickness of arms were put up, and the arrows shone with purple arcane light, this is the dragon slaying ballista, the ultimate war weapon developed in the last war to fight against the enslaved dragons on the tribal side, and even the dragon will fall with one arrow.

The giant crossbow was already aimed at Claudia, who had already entered the atrium, and many soldiers showed faint expressions of unbearability, and looked at an officer who had just run up the city wall with an inquiring gaze, he was a gray-haired man with a blue major ribbon,

"No shooting." He said in a deep voice.

The soldiers breathed a sigh of relief and stopped the locking work they were doing, and the captain of a second lieutenant uniform asked himself: "Lord Martinley?" ”

Major Martin Lei gave him a stern look, and then explained, "Every dragon slaying arrow is incomparably precious, and it is used against the aliens, not against the paladins of our alliance!" ”

Then he looked at the golden figure in the distance with some admiration: "Every powerful human paladin is a precious treasure of our human race, not to mention that she is still so young. Don't worry, she won't and won't hurt Your Majesty, especially today. ”

"But—"

"Just rest assured, Your Majesty will only make the same decision here, if it is pursued, I will take responsibility."

Bang! Bang!

Two blood-colored magical fireworks exploded in the air.

In a quaint and dilapidated house in the Old Town, a short, sturdy man with deep brown eyes was at his desk correcting papers, when suddenly he appeared in front of the window with an afterimage and looked at the location of Stormstorm Fortress.

Syllable!

He snapped his fingers, and two men in black emerged from the shadows and knelt behind him on one knee.

"The palace has been attacked by a strong man, the critical level is two, although the situation is unknown, but it may be the conspiracy of Defiya's group of bandits!"

"I must immediately go to the palace to defend His Majesty, Arthur, you are responsible for staying at MI7, and if there is any suspicious face at the door, you will be killed!"

"Yes! Master Shore! ”

"Tony!"

"In!"

"Go to the lamb that has been slaughtered, gather those inside, and wait for my signal!"

"Yes!"

The brown-eyed man stepped on the windowsill hard, and his body slowly faded in the air, becoming a barely visible shadow, jumping on the roof of a house twenty meters away, and the shadow quickly catapulted on the roofs and flew towards the palace.

A similar scene was playing out in two places at the same time, several paladins rushed out of the Cathedral of Light, rode on their horses and rushed to the palace, and on the purple tower, three mages who were experimenting interrupted their research and quickly walked to the top of the tower.

King Varian had just finished his martial arts training at this time, and was having breakfast with the two dukes, when a phantom appeared behind him when it exploded almost at the same time as the fireworks, the phantom bowed to him slightly, whispered a few words, and his face suddenly became strange.

"Boval, Grayson, I've got a guest." He put down the knife and fork in his hand and said to the two dukes opposite.

Grand Duke Berval Vortagen heard the explosion of fireworks and asked in a deep voice, "Are there any intruders?" Your Majesty, how many? ”

King Varian laughed: "There is only one person, a young female paladin, who has already knocked over more than forty soldiers, but fortunately she has controlled her strength and is not seriously injured. ”

Duke Grayson Shadombrick hurriedly knelt down on one knee and bowed his head: "I don't know which of my sisters doesn't know the rules, and I ask Your Majesty to allow me to go and bring her to your Majesty to plead guilty." ”

King Varian stretched out his hand to help Grayson up, smiled and said with relief: "Don't worry, I still know our paladin's character, and now that Marcus has passed, he has always been very measured." ”

King Varian suddenly thought of something again, and looked at the Duke of Vortagan next to him: "Berval, you go to Marcus's side, bring this lady to me, be as polite as possible, and I will hear her grievances for myself." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The Duke of Fortagen saluted, then walked out.

When Duke Vortagen left, King Varian turned to Duke Shadombrick again and explained sincerely: "Grayson, it's not that I don't trust you, but because this is after all Berval's jurisdiction, and it is most appropriate for him to deal with it, and it is also his trust and respect. ”

Duke Shahon Breck was a little touched by King Varian's concern and sincerity, and then said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, I will definitely reprimand her in a moment." ”

The guards in front of Claudia stepped back on either side, and a middle-aged officer with red hair and a beard appeared in the middle and stopped her, his golden armor and white ribbon on his shoulders marking his status as a general.

"I'm General Marcus Jonathan, Paladin, and what about the justice you believe in!"

Claudia said with a firm look in her eyes: "I am Baron Claudia Seberchel, and this trip to see Your Majesty is precisely to carry out true justice!" ”

"Okay," Marcus looked grim, and a faint layer of white power gradually appeared on his body. "I don't care who you are or why you broke into the palace, when I take you down, you'll have plenty of time in prison to explain!"

"I'm so sorry, but I have to see Your Majesty today"

The pale white ancestral power spread all over Marcus's body, and he threw a flying knife at the blonde girl, and the sound of breaking the air sounded, and then the power of the ancestor condensed on his legs, and he stepped on it with both feet, and raised the big sword with both hands and flew over with a jump.

Heroic Leap!

Claudia's mind flickered in the face of the flying knives that flew like meteors wrapped in the power of the ancestors and the heavily armored warriors who leaped afterward, and a shield of holy light that radiated a holy aura appeared around her body. Then she threw a punch in her left hand, and a golden fist shadow flew out, and she used the Fist of Sanction skill again.

The meteor collided with the Holy Shield, and the Holy Shield shattered, and the throwing knife lost its strength, and was easily dodged by the girl. In mid-air, although the Fist of Sanction did not repel the heavily armored Marcus, it also managed to stagnate his momentum and weaken his strength by several points.

The girl held the sword in both hands, and the golden light on the sword flashed as she faced Marcus, who had been weakened by the Fist of Sanctions, and the two golden and white figures collided together.
