Chapter 51: Envy, Jealousy, and Hatred
That is, when His Royal Highness the prince sent troops to fight to the death with the protagonist Succubus and his party, there were bursts of explosions in the army after Sailun.
His Royal Highness the Prince and the officers of Sailen, who heard the explosion, suddenly changed their faces - the situation was not too bad if the front and middle armies were attacked. Because it's full of soldiers and professionals in charge of warfare. But the rear army is different, there is a large amount of food and grass, spare weapons and armor, magic items, detachable catapults, ballistas and other siege equipment.
"Damn! What the hell is going on?! ”
Prince Cyren roared as if he had almost lost his mind.
At the same time, the rear army of Sailen, in disarray, was still in the middle of the violently burning baggage convoy.
"Really...... It's boring. If you think about it, if the Sailen army is at this level, it seems that I can take on all of them alone. Yulia said unashamedly.
The explosion just now, and now the unusually violent burning, were all her handiwork—the use of invisibility potions to conceal her form, the use of special herbs to mask the scent, and the Silent Boots to remove the sounds of movement. Spells cut off the cloak to block detection of prophetic spells.
Although this qiē was described by Tiffelle as an "opportunistic bastard design", the effect was surprisingly good. Yulia felt like she was in her own back garden, easily navigating through the crowd of sentinels, hounds, magicians, and magic alarms. Came to the most important baggage convoy.
Then, it's time for all kinds of high-explosive, high-damage alchemy bombs, as well as Yulia's own super-blazing glue, which is higher than normal - after a violent explosion, the blazing glue sticking to the vehicle burns brightly, and cannot be extinguished no matter what. The entire baggage of Seren's army was destroyed.
It was at this time. Ceren's striker collapsed.
The troops of only 2,000 people could not stop the joint assault of the protagonist Succubus, Uncle Missing Ears and Xiaobai. And after the three of them joined the battle against the Chinese army, the main force of the Chinese army in Sailun was also crumbling.
Whether it's bribed adventurers, Praetorian Guards, knights. Mage troops, or ordinary soldiers, are just as powerless when faced with legendary or quasi-legendary troops.
"Damn! What the hell is going on?! My army! "Prince Syren almost fainted. But along with the anger, the same amount of fear also crept in. Just a few people crushed his army of 8,000. Such combat effectiveness...... Maybe the other party is really a legend.
At the thought of this, Prince Seren felt unable to sit still—"Even if I am defeated this time, I can make a comeback—my status is noble, and there is a good chance that I will inherit the throne." Become a king! How can I die in a place where such birds don't poop?! Thinking of this, the idea of running away immediately became stronger. Prince Seren gritted his teeth, and then shouted to the officers and guards around him, "Go! Fall back! ”
"Retreat?!" Despite the same sense of criticality, most of the officers could not have imagined that their commander would order a retreat so simply. For a while, the vast majority of people were stunned. An officer couldn't help but ask: "Prince, the soldiers on the front line are still fighting, and we are retreating now, isn't it a little-"
"- What are you fighting for?! If they really work hard. It's impossible not to be able to stop even a few people! Prince Seren interrupted the officer, "What are you talking about?!" Do you want me to die here?! ”
"No, don't dare ......" the officer immediately shrank back. It's as if Prince Seren felt that he had died here unjustly. Look at the commander's eyes full of murderous intent. The officer also felt that he was wronged if he died like this. Anyway, the country belongs to them, the royal nobles. They don't care, so what do they care?
His Royal Highness the Prince, who originally wanted to kill people, couldn't help but snort coldly when he saw the other party shrink his eggs instantly. Muttered: "A bunch of cowards" and turned his horse's head to retreat - but then he heard something coming from behind him. Something is wrong.
Puff, puff, puff. It's like a cloth bag falling to the ground. But of course, what was behind him was not a cloth bag, or an armor rack, but ......
"Where do you want to go?" A completely emotionless, untoned voice came from behind him. At the same time, the prince felt a chill on his neck, and when he looked down, he saw a dagger against it.
"You, who are you...... Why, why are you attacking us......" Prince Seren felt that he was about to pee. The trills in the words couldn't be hidden—but even so, he wanted to pretend to be forced—what if it succeeded, what if it was an idiot who put the dagger to his neck right now? Isn't that earned?
"I, I'm the prince of Selen! The heir to the most powerful kingdom in the world, do you want to offend my authority? Do you know the consequences of this?! "The more His Royal Highness the prince talks, the sharper his mouth becomes. The tone of the cheap also became stern:
"Think about it, your family, your family, your friends who are related to you will be implicated by this! You're very powerful, but everyone you have a relationship with can't be so strong, right? What you are facing now is a country! It's a huge kingdom that you can't defeat! ”
"......" is a matter of course, and the taciturn Tiffelle is still silent.
"So, let me go. We can talk about it. His Royal Highness the Prince changed his seductive tone: "Who are you working for?" Dlocky city-state? What do they buy you from? Wealth? Status? Power? Fame? They are just a small city-state, how much can they give? It wouldn't be the same if you came to help me - I definitely gave you a lot more than Dlock! Ten times over! A hundredfold! And even more! ”
"......," Tiffelle remained silent.
"What are you waiting for? Liability? Indenture? The so-called justice? It's all boring stuff. People who are really powerful and capable don't give a damn about those things. Think about it, how beautiful the road ahead will be, as long as you ...... Anyway, after I said so much, can't you say yes? ”
"......," Tiffelle didn't speak.
"You—" Just when His Royal Highness did not want to turn back and questioned the impudent fellow, the dagger around his neck reminded him. He is still a prisoner of the other side.
"Damn, is this person deaf?" His Royal Highness couldn't help but think so. Perhaps sensing his feelings, Tivele finally spoke.
"It's too wordy, shut up." Still without a tone or tone, His Royal Highness the Prince then suspected that this creature was not deaf, but an undead or a constructed creature.
That is, as he spoke, the sound of fighting and screaming gradually faded away, and His Royal Highness's heart became colder and colder. He didn't see this as evidence of his army's victory.
"It's over......" His Royal Highness the Prince was a little disheartened for a while.
"Ah, well, it turned out to be your number one, and that's what the Assassins do." After that, the main character, the succubus, and other members of the righteous adventure group came over and surrounded His Royal Highness the prince in the middle.
Indeed, just as he thought, the entire army of Syren fled...... After the slaughter of the elite knights, janissaries, and magicians, the morale of the ordinary soldiers plummeted, and no matter how much the officers tried to restrain them, it was useless. In this way, the army of 8,000 was wiped out in one day.
Tivele released the dagger from his neck, and then said, "This is the sixth prince of Seren, Asel. Morality. El. Valencia too. ”
"Well done." The main character, the succubus, reaches out and rubs Tiffelle's hair, and then Tiffel kisses her on the face. At this time, Prince Arcel just turned around and saw this scene—he could clearly see that Tive's face had turned red, and he looked shy, but at the same time happy.
“……”
His Royal Highness felt very unhappy for a moment, even more so than when he was defeated and captured.
"The glory and riches I promised, the position of power. Isn't it as important as a wild boy to praise two sentences casually?! "Growing up, he has always been the focus of attention, and he can't accept this kind of thing at all - he looks carefully, looks carefully. Look at the main character, the succubus. After taking a closer look, he unconsciously developed an inferiority complex.
This is a young, handsome man who doesn't talk like a man. But more important is his temperament. Compared to the disgraced face after the defeat, the protagonist Succubus, who is covered in blood and holds a staff, has a more leadership temperament. If the two of them are put together, then everyone's eyes will unconsciously cast towards the protagonist succubus. If two people attend a grand party together, then after the party is over, everyone will definitely talk about the protagonist Succubus.
As for him, it's probably like that" Ah, speaking of which, there seems to be a person standing next to Lord Wright. ”
"Really? Not at all impressed. ”
It's basically this pathetic character.
Just as the protagonist succubus hoped, the moment he saw him, His Royal Highness hated the protagonist succubus.
“…… Well? Feeling Prince Cyren's hateful gaze, the protagonist Succubus was a little strange. But soon he didn't care—like Tiffelle. The main character, the succubus, doesn't take this kind of guy seriously at all.
"Are you their leader? Do you know who I am-" Prince Selen, who said this, was severely despised by the protagonist Succubus.
In a contemptuous and casual tone, he interrupted the prince's words:
- The general of the defeated army, an incompetent idiot, commanded an army of eight thousand but easily lost to six men. It doesn't matter what the name is. If it is written in the history books, you must be famous for being a 'rare fool through the ages', a classic negative case. The main character, the succubus, interrupted him and said, "So, I don't care who you are at all. On the contrary, you should take care of me, for your life is in my hands, Your Highness.
