215 Betrayal, Natalia's Choice!
"Click!"
However, before the Minotaur could take a few steps, suddenly, a pillar of light shone down in mid-air, forcing Cyrus and the others, who were accustomed to faint light, to squint and raise their hands to cover their eyes.
Through his fingers, Sellers could barely see a large black shadow behind the pillar of light, the silhouette somewhat resembling that of a large sailing ship.
The Minotaur was also attracted by the pillar of light, and stopped and looked up at the sky.
"Oops, almost late!"
A lazy voice sounded behind the pillar of light, and said with some curiosity: "Oh? This is the mechanical behemoth developed by the Empire? It looks pretty good! ”
"It's ...... The Horn of the Sage! Great, we are saved! Di Yan, who had fallen to the ground and closed his eyes and waited for death, saw the dark shadow behind the pillar of light clearly, especially when he heard the familiar voice, he suddenly became excited.
"What's that?" Cyrus, who was about to help Kelly stabilize his injuries, suddenly had a very bad premonition, and his brows furrowed tightly.
"Humph!" Ti Yan, who had been bullied by Veronica before and was frightened by the Minotaur Mechanic King, fully recovered his spirit at this time, stood up covering the wound on his waist, and said proudly: "This is the new base of the Revolutionary Army, the Flying Ship Sage's Horn." Didn't you want to arrest me and Kelly? It's a pity that now you don't have a chance! ”
"Revolutionary Army!" Cyrus's face instantly became gloomy, she didn't have a good impression of this anti-imperial organization at all, and before the Heavenly Sage's Horn attacked, she immediately ordered loudly: "Mechanical beast, destroy that spaceship for me, this is an order!" ”
In fact, without Cyrus's order, the Minotaur was already ready to attack.
"Moo!"
The three-story tall Minotaur roared in the sky, picked up a steel battle axe comparable to a small house in his hand, and threw it at the huge black shadow in the air.
"Huhuhu......"
The steel tomahawk spun at a rapid pace, whizzing through the air.
If this hit is confirmed, even if the spaceship in the sky is also made of steel, it is estimated that it will be smashed through.
No way. The power of the Minotaur is so strong that it can be split through the earth with an axe, and it is not something that ordinary people or things can resist at all.
"Gee, that's too welcoming. As soon as he came up, he gave us a big axe. Unfortunately, we don't have anyone here to use an axe, so let's lose it! ”
The lazy voice in mid-air sounded again, and at the same time, a black shadow quickly flashed out from behind the pillar of light, volleying towards the whistling giant axe.
"Yo ho, that's heavy! Get up with me! ”
Under Cyrus's gaze of disbelief, the figure leaped into the pillar of light and accurately intercepted the giant axe, as if it didn't care about holding the handle of the axe, which was thicker than its body. Throw it to the side.
With a "boom", the giant axe with the powerful power of the Minotaur was so ridiculously thrown to the ground and smashed into a big pit.
At the same time, the figure in the air took a turn. As if flying, he swung his fist and smashed it towards the massive Minotaur Robot.
"Bang...... It's a lot of noise......"
Something even more happened, only to see the figure swing its fist into the huge head of the Minotaur, and then ......
Then the head of the Minotaur exploded like a broken building block, and the broken bones and flesh and various mechanical parts were scattered all over the ground......
For the first time in his life, Sellers opened his mouth that wide. Mu was stunned and looked at the figure falling from the sky, as well as the headless body of the Minotaur King slowly falling.
This...... How is this possible?
That's a mechanical behemoth, a huge and powerful mechanical behemoth!
I was smashed in the head by a small fist, this ...... This can't be true!
Celes was stunned by the cruel reality and stood in place dumbfounded, not even reacting to the fact that Kelly in his arms was snatched away by Ti Yan.
under the light. The figure descending from the sky is finally revealed.
is not a tall macho man in gold helmets and golden armor, nor is he a handsome guy in white clothes, but a ...... A sloppy uncle with a scruffy beard!
It's just that this uncle is a little peculiar, and he actually has a pair of curved horns on his head. How do you look like a human being.
"Yo, I'm here to pick you up, welcome home!"
Uncle Sloppy didn't seem to care at all that he had just destroyed a massive mechanical beast with one punch, and waved his hand at Ti Ji and Kelly with a grin.
However, Di Yan didn't appreciate it, but stepped forward angrily, kicked the sloppy uncle's feet hard, and scolded with red eyes: "Damn stinky old man, I will never take your business again." See for yourself what kind of scary monsters I've encountered. In addition to this mechanical cow, there is an even more terrifying female demon king, and I almost died at her hands. ”
Di Yan was really aggrieved to death, I thought that this business was very easy, as long as she fooled Kelly, let her contribute in the front, and hide in the back to reap the benefits.
But who knows, she killed Cyrus and her gang halfway, forcing her to escape from the hole, and then met the strange Veronica, who was restrained by her and almost lost her life.
In the end, the terrifying Minotaur appeared on the scene, brutally slaughtering more than 3,000 hellgoblins, overpowering the previously arrogant female demon king Veronica, and almost scared Ti Ka into peeing her pants.
"Oh, I'm really sorry, don't be angry, little girl!"
The sloppy uncle touched the horns on his head with a smile, didn't care about kicking his feet at all, and said, "I also found out that the mechanical beast would be dispatched, so I came here non-stop." No, I've already avenged you, so don't worry about my old man. Wait a little back on the boat and get some rest, I have more gold coins waiting for you to earn!" ”
After speaking, the sloppy uncle was afraid that Ti Yan would continue to entangle with him, so he hurriedly changed his direction, pretended to be serious on his face, and said to Kelly next to him: "Hello, Miss Kelly! I'm the captain of this Sage's Call, the deputy commander of the Revolutionary Army, Root? Glebrien. As you can see, I'm a dragon! ”
Captain Rout touched the horns on his head again, and said apologetically: "In order to prevent the Empire from obtaining the mechanical technology of the Heavenly Realm, I had to give you an obliteration order. I'm so sorry for that! But now, you have finally escaped safely, and in the future, our revolutionary army will ensure your safety and will not let the lackeys of the empire threaten you again. ”
Kelly nodded lightly and said indifferently, "I can understand your strategy, because I was also a soldier before. Now the Empire has issued a wanted warrant for me, except for the Void Motherland, which is currently independent. I don't think I've had a safe place to go. If Captain Rout would be willing to arrange a safe place for me, I would be very grateful! ”
The Revolutionary Army is an organization independent of all political powers, and its members are so mysterious that no one knows who their leader is.
And the ultimate goal of the revolutionary army. It is to overthrow the iron-blooded rule of the empire and establish a new peaceful order.
As for why Captain Root, an adult dragon, joined the revolutionary army, it still starts from the time when Bakar attacked the Heavenly Realm thousands of years ago, so I won't go into details for the time being.
In short, the strength of the revolutionary army is very strong, which can be seen from Captain Root alone.
Adult dragons can transform into human form and possess unrivaled strength. The punch that smashed the head of the Minotaur just now is the best proof of this.
Kelly is now homeless, and her best option is to work with the Revolutionary Army. Or simply join the revolutionary army.
But she was reluctant to participate in such a massive campaign to subvert the state, and just wanted to find a safe and quiet place to live. Of course, in order to ensure that she can live in peace, she is willing to use her mechanical skills to cooperate with the revolutionary army, and take what she needs.
"Miss Kelly, please rest assured. Your safety will be entrusted to our revolutionary army in the future. "Captain Rout is a smart man, and from Kelly's words, she seems to be reluctant to join the revolutionary army, but she doesn't force it, anyway, there will be opportunities in the future.
A rope ladder descended from the sky and landed right next to Captain Root.
At this time, they were used to the bright light, and the people on the ground could already see the sky clearly.
It was a huge flying ship, similar in appearance to a galleon sailing in the open sea. A pillar of light falling from the sky. It was the searchlight in front of the spacecraft that came out.
Captain Rout had Ti and Kelly board the ship via the rope ladder first, and he himself was the last to go up.
As for Cyrus, who was standing not far away, everyone seemed to ignore her.
Fortunately, Sellers is also self-aware, knowing that he is no match for the powerful Captain Root, so he did not stupidly rush forward to die.
Although she was very unwilling, she could only watch like this.
Because she just woke up from the shock. The first reaction was to rush forward and grab the people of the revolutionary army.
But a furious, deep, and oppressive momentum suddenly emanated from Captain Root, almost knocking Cyrus to the ground.
Standing in that powerful momentum, it was as if there was a monstrous dragon that opened its sharp teeth and pounced on her. Scared Cyrus so much that his legs trembled and he couldn't move.
This was Captain Root's deliberate momentum against Cyrus alone, and Tyke and Kelly, who were standing in front of him, did not feel anything unusual in the slightest.
It's just a little strange that Captain Root, who is the deputy commander of the revolutionary army, doesn't know why he let go of Cyrus, who is the emperor's **official, which is very puzzling......
"Wait a minute!"
Just as Captain Root was about to climb the rope ladder, a group of people suddenly ran out of the woods on the side, led by Natalia, with a soft smile on her face, and said to Captain Root: "Uncle Captain, please allow me to take the liberty of the boat, can we take a ride on the boat?" ”
"Oh?" Captain Root turned his head in surprise, looked at a group of little girls in imperial costumes, and asked with a smile: "It's okay to take a hitchhiker, but you should always talk about the destination of the boat, right?" ”
"The destination is the same as yours, and the road is the same, I wonder if Uncle Captain can make it convenient?" Natalia replied with a hint of meaning.
Captain Rout was surprised again, and looked at Natalia and the others with some confusion.
Don't look at Natalia's casual reply, but the meaning contained in it is very rich.
The same destination, the same road, of course can't be literal. What Natalia wants to convey is that she, like the revolutionary army, is a person who wants to overthrow the rule of the empire, and she is a like-minded partner.
A smile rose in Captain Root's eyes, and he asked with interest, "Can you tell me why?" A little girl in an imperial costume! ”
"Absolutely!" Natalia smiled and nodded, stretched out her finger and pointed to the ground under her feet, and said, "Five years ago, the empire conducted a huge transfer experiment here. And I, and my sisters around me, were the test subjects who survived at that time. Is this reason enough? ”
Captain Rout was startled when he heard this, and the smile on his face quickly retreated, looking at the eyes of Natalia and the others, unconsciously with a trace of pity.
Five years ago, he was the deputy commander of the Revolutionary Army in the Birmak area. Naturally, I know a lot of inside information.
At that time, the emperor captured tens of thousands of innocent civilians to serve as experimental subjects, and finally the test site exploded, destroying almost everyone present, and only a few people survived.
Those who survived. They are all poor children who have lost their relatives and rely on, and they have to endure the torture of transferring energy from their bodies every day, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are the most miserable people in the world. For though they live, they are worse than dead.
On the part of the revolutionary army, it once rescued some experimental children who escaped by chance. But in the end, Captain Root had a lot of strength, but he couldn't help those children, and could only watch them die as they were tortured by the transferred energy.
Later, the revolutionary army accidentally discovered that the wandering thief was also one of the surviving test subjects. Captain Root immediately sent someone to secretly protect her. Until she grew up and had good strength, she took care of her in another way, and deliberately used business as an excuse to give her all kinds of care.
In the eyes of Captain Root, a dragon who is nearly 900 years old, these test subjects are innocent victims. They were brutally deprived of their happy family by the Empire, lost all their loved ones, and almost died themselves.
Therefore, Captain Root took pity on them extraordinarily, even if Ti Ji often made trouble unreasonably and took advantage of the revolutionary army, he could bear it.
Now listen to Natalia, she and the little girls around her. They were all experimental subjects who survived that year, and Captain Root instantly relented.
Of course, Captain Root is an old monster who has lived for nearly a thousand years after all, and it is impossible for someone to be easily deceived. When he was observing Natalia and the others, he used the special methods of the dragon clan to immediately sense that there was a pure and powerful transfer energy in the bodies of those little girls.
And so it goes. Natalia's words were confirmed, and Captain Rout relented even more, and the mercy mode was activated instantly.
"All right, little girls, get on board. Let Uncle Root give you a taste of what it's like to fly through the air! Captain Rout stepped aside and waved, motioning for Natalia and the others to get on board first.
"Thank you, uncle!" Natalia nodded politely and took the little sisters to prepare to board the ship.
"Wait!"
Seeing that Natalia was about to board the shipship of the Revolutionary Army, Cyrus couldn't hold back any longer, and shouted angrily: "Natalia, what are you doing? Are you going to rebel against the Empire? ”
Natalia turned around, smiled at Cyrus, and said indifferently, "I'm sorry, Cyrus." I've never been loyal to the Empire, so there's no such thing as betrayal. I'm just choosing the path that works for me and that's it! ”
"You...... Stop! Cyrus wanted to rush forward, but the road ahead was blocked by Captain Root, so she could only stand there and grit her teeth and ask, "Have you considered Your Highness's feelings when you do this?" It was His Highness who rescued you from the ruins, cared for you, and took care of you. Isn't it possible that these five years can't make you have a little nostalgia? ”
The "His Royal Highness" in Sellers's mouth naturally refers to His Royal Highness Ying Tianyi, the prince.
Natalia was slightly stunned, then returned to her senses, and said with a light smile: "Please rest assured, he is not only my savior, but also my husband and my relatives, and I will never betray him." ”
"And you're going to leave him?" Cyrus asked angrily.
Natalia was silent, as were the girls standing beside her.
Captain Rout didn't say a word, waiting for Natalia to make her choice.
Without waiting for Natalia to speak, Veronica, who was following her, suddenly turned around and walked towards the woods, without looking back, and said, "I won't play with you anymore, I'm going to find the master." If I know what you've done to be sorry for your master, I'll execute you with my own hands! ”
Natalia didn't stop her, knowing that this wayward eldest lady was not so easy to abduct, so she simply let her go.
"I will never betray him, and I believe that he will understand my distress as well!" Natalia was silent for a moment, then grabbed the rope ladder and climbed up the ship.
"You ......" Cyrus was so angry that his lungs were about to explode, and he felt deeply sorry for Ying Tianyi, and actually raised a group of white-eyed wolves.
However, when she saw that the other eight girls did not follow her to climb the rope ladder, she immediately rejoiced, and secretly thought that someone could tell the difference between right and wrong.
The little cow Karena and the others were indeed hesitating, not knowing whether to follow Natalia or not.
Although they and Natalia are sisters who share weal and sorrow, they are more dependent on Ying Tianyi. If they were allowed to leave Ying Tianyi, even Natalia would not be able to do it.
"Come up! When have I ever let you down! ”
Natalia also noticed that the people behind her were not following, and glared back at them, with a faint sense of power on her body.
Karena and the others glanced at each other, and they also felt that Natalia seemed to have a deep meaning in doing this, so they simply didn't think much about it anymore and climbed the rope ladder one by one.
Of course, if they find out that Natalia has deceived them in the future, they will not hesitate to return to Ying Tianyi. Now they choose to believe her because they don't want to give up their feelings for each other.
Cyrus was completely speechless, and began to worry in his heart, if Ying Tianyi knew that none of the nine girls he had raised for five years had left him, it was estimated that Ying Tianyi would be very sad and sad.
When Natalia and the others all climbed onto the ship, Captain Rout deliberately smiled at Cyrus and asked, "Do you want to come along?" ”
Sellers thought this name was so powerful that it changed. State. The captain of the dragon clan wanted to kidnap her, and immediately nervously raised the snake belly sword, and slowly retreated.
"Since you're here, let's stay!"
In the woods, a majestic voice answered in Cyrus's place.
Under Cyrus's incredulous gaze, a tall figure wearing a golden helmet and armor slowly stepped out of the woods.
"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty! Cyrus was stunned for a moment, then immediately knelt down on one knee and saluted respectfully: "Elite Knights Cyrus, see Your Majesty!" ”
It was none other than His Majesty the current Emperor of the Delos Empire, Leon? Hainrich III ......
ps: What are the twists and turns, Lord Phantom Moon feels that he can't keep up with the rhythm of his sister. From the pursuit, to the chaotic entry, to the scuffle, then to the suppression, and finally to turn the tables, and as a result, another variable ran out, and Lord Phantom Moon felt that his brain was not enough......
