Chapter 168: Pre-War Configuration
When everyone heard that the Order would carry out some big move in the surrounding villages tomorrow, the first thing that came to mind was the Valkyrie Project.
"Now that the matter is clear, what are your plans for tomorrow, Your Highness? Can we participate? The fire demon sitting across from him looked at Locke and asked. It knew that it couldn't show up a few of them, but it still wanted to get involved, at least take a look.
Locke understood what it meant, and replied with a smile, "Anne will show you the video then." β
Everyone turned their heads to look at the young girl standing on the ground with small transparent wings hanging behind her back, at this time, she was holding a roll of parchment in her hand and was constantly stuffing it into Caesar's mouth, looking like feeding a dog, but Caesar knew the importance of these documents, tilted her head and kept dodging.
"Annie, don't ruin the papers." Locke exclaimed, frowning.
When the little guy heard this, he immediately stopped what he was doing, turned his head and asked strangely, "Haven't you already found Valkyrie's information?" What about these ......"
"It's not just Valkyrie, it's just as valuable. Also, Caesar eats meat, so don't force him to eat messy things, you know? β
"Oh......"
Seeing the way Locke interacted with Annie, the demon secretly leaned into George's ear and asked, "Your Highness is usually used to this little goblin like this?" β
George nodded helplessly, Caesar had been on the battlefield with him a few times, and each time he was at the forefront, which was the core of the entire legion, and he also blocked a lot of attacks for the vampires, that is to say, Caesar was the most trusted comrade-in-arms of George and even the entire vampire clan.
But when it was fine, it was ridden around by the young girl......
Thinking of this, George turned his head to look at the demon and Gillias next to him, and asked, "Was Anne like this in the last era?" β
"No, she used to be a goblin in the form of a goblin, delivering news to the various dukes and generals in the city." Speaking of this, the Flame Demon's face revealed, 'Why is this happening here to Your Highness?' β
"What should I say?" George scratched his head, and finally spread his hands and said, "Maybe the king is too lonely." I heard Tian Ji say that when he first joined, the castle was far less majestic than it looks now, and at that time only the king and Anne relied on each other, and at most a weak Caesar. β
In other words, Anne and Caesar were the first people to be by Locke's loneliest and most difficult time, so they have their current status, and this status is almost equal to Rhaedia.
"Oh......" The Fire Demon nodded thoughtfully, not saying anything more.
Now that he knows the plan of action of the Tomorrow Order, then this side can't do nothing, Locke first asked the gargoyles to probe the surrounding villages at a high altitude, and found that one of them gathered more holy light energy, so he judged that their location for tomorrow's action should be there.
Then it is the selection of people, and the five Nemesses will definitely participate, and the second is the demons, after all, humans can't touch the spirits, and they have to be demons.
At this time, the flame demon interrupted: "Your Highness, according to the information, the Holy Spirit is protected by holy light, is it okay for the demon to come into contact with it?" β
"Hmm..... Then it's up to me then. Locke replied that his body was a type of earth demon, which could weaken some of the damage of the Holy Light, and with the protection of top-level equipment, the attack of the Holy Light would not have much effect on him.
But even if this is the case, there will definitely be a large number of clergy around to defend it tightly, so the demon's combat power is indispensable.
Locke crossed his arms and lowered his head to think for a long time, but several people didn't speak, and finally Amy leaned her head over and asked, "Are you thinking about giving this operation a code name, brother-in-law?" With the experience of the past, she can't help but blame her for thinking in this direction, but Amy was naturally greeted by Doris slashing her head with a knife.
Locke looked up at the crowd:
"When the time comes, it will be mainly melee combat, so George won't have to go, just stay in the city and watch."
Blood methods belong to the field warfare category, they float in the sky and are easily beaten down by the priests on the ground and the surrounding guardian bishops, the so-called art industry has a specialty, and the street battle naturally has to be taken by the lich.
"I will elect a leader from among the lichs to represent them. The ghouls were in charge of Caesar. Daylight was not the right time to send a team of assassins, so Dorga stayed in the city with the Ashmai clan. As for the Minotaur......"
"They must go to war, the king." George reminded: "The Minotaur needs actual combat to gain experience, and besides, when the time comes, only ghouls will be easily set on fire, and most importantly, didn't you say that the Minotaur is a holy attribute?" β
"Hehe, that's right." Locke smiled, then asked, if anything else was missing?
Several demons looked at each other, indicating that they didn't know, and that there should be nothing missing.
However, at this time, Doris, wearing a mask, pointed out for the first time that there were two monsters that were not used.
What the?
She pointed to the little white fox in Kora's arms and said, "The same phantom beast as this little one, those two newly caught manticores. β
"Oh~~"
Everyone's faces suddenly realized.
"Hmm...... Nina, how's the research on phantom beasts going in the cultivation house? β
"Fruitful."
"I'll take a look at the image."
In the virtual image that appeared next to the crowd, two small milk cats with black stripes and yellow fur and ears draped behind their heads like rabbits appeared, chasing a small ball and playing.
β......β
Everyone watched it for a long time, and was suddenly a little speechless, why did such a huge and ferocious guy become two harmless long-eared kittens here?
"Ahem...... Introduction? "Locke doesn't think that the cultivation house will squander the funds like vampires, and it should all be used on the blade, probably.
"According to the will of the cultivation house, they want to make a flying pet for Nemesses that they can carry with them, and this is usually the state of a young beast, once it happens, they are frightened or ordered by their masters......"
At this time, the two little milk cats who were originally playing stopped their movements, and then got up and quietly looked at the approaching black shadow in the distance.
As the black shadow got closer and closer, the kittens slammed, and the whole picture was suddenly filled with smoke, and then, two house-sized manticores appeared in the picture.
Their stout physique, hideous face, and endless murderous aura can't be connected with the cute and charming little milk cats before.
Whewββ!
The lions roared forward, then opened their bloody mouths and began to take deep breaths, a large amount of fiery red energy was gathered in front of their mouths, and in a few breaths, a large round fireball appeared.
Bang!
The fireball shot out at a speed exceeding the speed of sound.
Boom ββ!
The surrounding light suddenly dimmed, and a sea of fire rose in front of it, and all the creatures inside were evaporated in that instant.
"Oh~~~"
Amy clapped hands with Cora and Anne, and Doris nodded to the head maid, clearly happy to have such a powerful helper to be had.
"This ......" Locke shook his head helplessly in his heart, it doesn't seem to be of any use to tomorrow's scramble, right? This unbridled power could directly blow the entire village away, not to mention the Holy Spirit in it.
"It's still in the experimental stage, if you need it, you can only let these two cubs go out, and in terms of increasing the number, we are still extracting related substances, and we can mass produce them after the experiment."
Thankfully, the village was saved.
"In that case, let's stop for today's meeting, take a break, and start moving tomorrow."
"Yes."
Everyone agreed, out of the goblin time research and development room, if someone was outside at this time, they would only see a group of people go in and close the door and then immediately open the door and come out, without a millisecond of delay.
"What are you going to do next?" Redia asked, holding Locke's arm, a fair amount of information between her eyebrows.
Locke looked at her and immediately smiled, "Let's take a bath, lady?" β
"you." Rhedia nudged it, her head bowed crimson, in acquiescence.
When Locke saw it, his heart suddenly pounded, and he was about to speak.
"Brother-in-law~ Where are you going later?" Amy's excited voice rang out from behind.
Ay......
Locke turned his head blankly to look at Amy, Doris, the head maid, and Cora and Anne on Caesar's back, who were approaching him behind him.
Behind the group of Nemesses, George and the three demons watched silently, not speaking.
Timos finally whispered to a few people around her, "Can't these guys see that His Highness wants to be alone with the princess?" β
George and Gillias turned their heads to look at it, saying nothing, obviously they already knew, but Aklas next to him had a surprised look on his face - it was the first time he had heard of it.
"The king wants to be alone with the princess, so what are they doing together?" Aklas said that he planned to go directly to stop the girls from approaching.
However, before he could take two steps, he was immediately grabbed by the three people behind him, which was still dragged for a few steps before stopping.
"What's wrong with you? Why did you stop me? β
Without saying a word, Timos jumped up and slapped his paw on the stupid big man's head, and then roared: "You are stupid, don't you want to die?" β
Aklas scratched his head, he didn't understand very well, was it wrong to let the king achieve his wish?
"Ahem, if you go up now, they'll definitely flake you alive." George pointed to the Nemesis who were chattering around Locke in front of him, "Even the king and princess may not have time to stop it - do you have the confidence to face four angry Nemesses at the same time when your strength is weakened?" β
Akhras was stunned, remembering the last time he was slashed by Doris's sword, he immediately shook his head - the power of that sword was indeed terrifying enough, although it was just to send it flying without hurting it in the slightest, but if he faced a large number of Nemesses attacking at the same time, what would he not say, it would be difficult to ensure that it would affect the king and princess, this is a great crime that cannot be forgiven.
"If you die, there will be no one to protect Your Highness, understand?"
Looking at the big man who gradually fell silent in front of him, Gillias finally gave it the responsibility of being the first master in order to avoid any drastic actions by the stupid big man, which dispelled its urge to go up.
"Since it's all right, let's go play." With her arms crossed on the back of her head, Timos made her way towards the teleportation array, which led directly to the Blood Pool Temple, "I hope Valkyrie, who joins tomorrow, won't be as difficult to deal with as these demons." β
Really? It's a bit hard to say, after all, Valkyrie's core source is the Holy Spirit, that is, the divine attribute of the guy, what will happen to her when she faces the demons?
Thinking of this, George and Gillias looked at each other, and finally shrugged their shoulders, taking one step at a time, it was impossible for His Highness to sit idly by.
The next day, somewhere in a village around Seth City, a huge ritual was taking place...... (To be continued)
