Chapter 255: Struggle, Banquet, Elixir

"Yes, Lord Viscount! Three high-ranking demons, including the Demon Overseer, the Three-Headed Dog of Purgatory, and the Flame Chief! Hadro said categorically: "If you are interested, you can take an airship to the Rheinberg and see their corpses." Of course, after a little more time, His Excellency Moriarty may have to use these rare 'materials' to refine some 'cute' magic items. After all, even the corpse of a demon can't be left for long. ”

"That's the caseβ€”" Glancing at the old steward, he looked back at Moriarty, and the viscount's face was cloudy.

"Venerable Viscount, you should know that the most terrifying of the Demon Legion is actually these high-level powerhouses. Others, such as small demons and even mid-level horned demons, are actually not difficult to resist as long as they use the Xiongcheng to hold on. However, once a high-level demon enters the battle, the other side must also have a high-level warrior of the corresponding level to step up, otherwise the impregnable defense line will collapse. And now, I, Olympus, not only need to deal with the attack of demons in the defense of the city, but also take the initiative to attack the enemy legions led by high-level demons in the field battle in the future. The difficulties and dangers involved should not be difficult for adults to understand, right? ”

"Three-headed high-level... Moti, you're really 'extraordinary'! After a moment of silence, Viscount Salk finally let out a long sigh.

"Well, Olympus is amazing, and the Salk family won't shirk it any more. But there is one thing that I hope you can commit to first. At this time, Martiel said again.

"Tell me, Marty." Moriarty smiled.

"After that, once it enters the stage of strategic counteroffensive. I want you to help Windsor Castle out of the siege first. ”

"Yes, you kid must agree to this request first, otherwise both the supplies and the population will be halved!" Immediately, the viscount on the side also followed suit.

"Okay, I can say yes." After a moment's consideration, Moriarty nodded in agreement.

"Haha, this is the awesome guy I know!" After getting the other party's promise, the old man finally smiled.

In fact, according to the alliance agreement, Olympus was obliged to send troops to relieve the siege of the other three allies, including Fort Windsor, Merriren and Fort Art; After that, the four sides will gather their combat power. Together, they cleared Kent and conquered the southeastern part of the kingdom. But. Breaking the siege is to break the siege, but who comes first and who comes after is quite particular. Salk's plan was to get out of the demonic siege before the other two allies. In this way, Windsor Castle can take the opportunity to seize the strategic initiative and take advantage of the time difference to recover its own territory first. Restore as much strength as possible.

"Alright. That's pretty much it. Let's go for dinner first. Hehe, I think other people are in a hurry. ”

Now that the alliance intentions have been largely agreed, the remaining details will be left to the general stewards of Hadro and Salk to be confirmed and agreed upon. Thereupon. The Viscount smiled and beckoned Moriarty to the Inner Castle Hall. There, the Kent nobles who had taken refuge in Windsor Castle were already waiting. Previously, they were late in getting the news, so they were not able to arrive to meet Moriarty in the first place. Now, when they learned that the other party had finished talking with Salk and had come to the dinner, everyone was immediately excited to greet them at the door of the hall.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Lord Moriarty!"

"Your Excellency, you are a true gentleman, and your arrival brings us great hope!"

"Lord Viscount, Lord Moriarty, do you have a plan to counterattack, and when will we be able to expel the demons?"

Before he could enter the banquet hall, Moriarty was immediately surrounded by many enthusiastic aristocrats. It's like when he won the "horse race" race many years ago. But this time, the eyes of the surrounding people were more hopeful and awe-inspiring.

"Alright, let's take a seat."

Seeing that Moriarty was blocked in the doorway and could barely move, Viscount Salk had to speak out to relieve the siege. As a result, the nobles scattered "reluctantly" and went to their places to sit down. As for Moriarty, as the most important guest of honor today, he was naturally placed on the left head of the viscount, while Matiel sat opposite him.

"Ding, ding, ding!"

When everyone sat down in turn, the old man picked up a silver spoon and gently tapped the crystal cup in front of him. Immediately, the still somewhat noisy hall fell silent.

"Today is a day to celebrate! I am glad that in this critical autumn of the Devil's invasion, our good fellow from Kent, and the Venerable Middle-Ranking Mage, His Excellency Moriarty, was able to brave the fire and visit me at Windsor Castle. Here, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks and most sincere welcome to him with the wine in this glass! As he spoke, the viscount raised his wine glass aloft in his hand.

"Welcome, Lord Moriarty."

At the dining table on both sides, both the heads of the family and some noble ladies and ladies also raised their silver cups to greet the distinguished guests.

"Thank you, Lord Viscount, for your kindness, and thank you for your kindness!"

With a slight smile, Moriarty stood up, bowed to the old man first, and then took his glass and raised it to the nobles on both sides of the long table: "Cheers!" ”

"Cheers!"

Immediately, everyone in the banquet hall drank their glasses, and the aroma of wine overflowed for a while.

"Haha, that's good!" After drinking the wine in one go, the viscount laughed: "Just now, I have reached an agreement with His Excellency Moriarty, and I am about to jointly send troops to encircle and suppress the demon legions in Kent. In addition, there is good news to announce: just yesterday, the fallen Rhineberg was recovered by His Excellency Moriarty. In the future, the fort will also serve as its station, becoming a mainstay of resistance to demonic invasions. ”

"What!? The Rheinberg has been recovered!? ”

"Oh my God, Lord Moriarty is..."

"Become its station? What do you mean? Could it be that the Luo Yanta family has already been..."

Suddenly hearing such news, the hall erupted in exclamations, including admiration, excitement, and deep doubt.

"I will inform you of the details of the agreement after the banquet. Now, let's have a hearty meal and drink delicious wine! ”

Without further explanation, the old man directly announced the start of the banquet. In this regard, although the nobles of the Salk faction below still have full doubts, they have to be patient and have dinner first.

"My lord, why haven't you seen Your Excellency the 'Spear of Dawn'?" Cutting a slice of tender and juicy steak, Moriarty did not taste it immediately, but asked the old man with a smile.

"Charlie was a little injured and was recuperating, so I didn't call him." The viscount swallowed a large piece of roast meat and said casually.

"Lord Charlie is hurt?"

Hearing this, Moriarty was immediately startled. A few years ago, Charlie was already a Knights of the Round Table, and he was only a stone's throw away from the Templar. Although he hadn't really seen the strength of his full firepower, Moriarty was certain that even against the three Naga brothers together, the "Spear of Dawn" would be able to resist it. And now, I heard that he was injured so much that he couldn't even participate in the welcome dinner, which shows Yan zhΓ²ng Cheng dΓΉ.

"Yes. When the demons invaded Kent, Charlie had a fight with a big demon, so he was seriously injured. ”

Speaking of this, the old man couldn't help but feel a little depressed. After all, his leading thug was injured and couldn't play, and he would be depressed for anyone.

"Great Demon? Extremely strong? Moriarty's brow furrowed, almost growling.

"Sort of." The viscount glanced at the other party: "I heard Charlie say that the big demon should have just been promoted not long ago, and his strength is much weaker than that of ordinary extreme dao." So under the hard fight, Charlie was not lightly injured. However, the big demon did not fall well, was pierced in the stomach by the dragon spear, and ran away. ”

"That's right..."

Moriarty nodded. Being able to fight with Jidao and lose both, even if the opponent is only a "rookie-level" big demon, is enough to show how strong the Knights of the Round Table is. Even, Moriarty believed that after this demonic invasion battle, as long as the "Spear of Dawn" could survive in the end, the accumulated "food" would definitely help it truly advance to the Templar.

"My lord, here are some special healing potions, please help me pass them on to Lord Charlie, it should help the injury."

Without hesitation, Moriarty directly took out a box of the highest grade alchemy healing potion from the bag and gently handed it to the old man. If Charlie can return to the battlefield as soon as possible, it will be of great strategic importance, both for Windsor Castle and for the whole of Kent.

"Well, thank you, young man, Charlie needs that."

Gently open the box, and immediately, a faint white light shines through it. Shining on the back of his hand, the Viscount felt only a chill of comfort. The old man was well-informed, so he could naturally be sure that the five potions in the box belonged to the best products produced in Bracada, and they had excellent curative effects on both sword wounds and magic injuries. And such a powerful potion has always been the most valuable in Erathia, and for any professional to be able to carry one with him, it is equivalent to half a life.

Even with Moriarty's background in Hockenheim, he only took a few boxes of this superb potion. Now there are five branches as soon as they make a move, and they can be called "wealthy" local tyrants.

"Morty, do you have any gifts for me?"

At this time, Matiel, who was opposite, withdrew his gaze from the alchemy potion, and suddenly asked Moriarty with a smile.

"This, of course."

Moriarty smiled slightly. For Matiel, he is not without feelings, but more pity and apology. And I haven't seen her for five years, although the pearl of Salk is still as delicate as before, but Moriarty knows in her heart that she has not given up since she has not married, and even has become a secret laughing stock in the aristocratic circle of Kent.

Glancing at Matiel, Moriarty sighed softly in her heart, but smiled and took out a small black velvet satin jewelry box and handed it to the other party. (To be continued......)
