Red Dragon Castle.

After the state banquet, two pieces of news quickly spread throughout the northern world.

The first is that the queen and the archmage Russell got married, and the archmage Russell became the prince of the Holy Helmet, which is generally good news, especially for the civilians of the Holy Helmet Kingdom, which means that the kingdom has a powerful guardian.

The second is the patriarch and great lord of the three thousand-year-old families of the Holy Helmet, a duke, and two marquises, who died at the state banquet on the grounds that it turned out to be a ridiculous intention to assassinate the queen.

After the news broke, the three major families immediately announced their separation from the Holy Helmet Kingdom and threw themselves into the arms of the Cidis Kingdom, and the successor patriarch swore revenge.

This is exactly what the royal family of Citis wants. As a result, with the armies of the three major families as the vanguard, the revenge army with the army of the Kingdom of Cidis as the main force began to be formed, vowing to seek justice from the Kingdom of the Holy Helmet.

This is absolutely bad news.

Because of these things, Toria began to send troops around to organize troops to defend against the invasion of the Kingdom of Cidis. She wakes up at 4 a.m. every day, goes back to her room at 1 o'clock in the evening, and rests only three hours a day.

Night, late at night, nearly two o'clock in the morning.

On the side of the classical and luxurious big bed, the exquisite magic lamp exudes a white and soft glow, Sun Ran leaned on the back of the bed alone, and quietly flipped through the magic book alone.

There was a soft 'click', the bedroom door opened softly, and there were a few soft conversations in the doorway, and then, Toria, dressed in formal clothes, walked into the bedroom gently, she lightly took off her sable shoulders and heavy dress, and then walked into the bathroom next to her, and with a 'click', closed the door again.

There was the sound of water inside, and after a while, Toria came over and sat on the bed in her nightdress, rubbing her wet hair with a towel. While asking, "It's so late, haven't you slept yet?" ”

Sun Ran closed the magic book and said with a smile: "You didn't come back, I couldn't sleep." ”

Then he snapped his fingers, and a mist rose from Toria's wet hair, which quickly disappeared. Her hair was also dry.

"You~" Toria smiled dotingly, threw the towel aside, got into the quilt, leaned into Sun Ran's arms, then yawned long and closed her eyes.

She was very tired, and these days she was almost working day and night to deal with the affairs of the kingdom, and even she was a little overwhelmed.

Sun Ran could clearly feel that Toriya's body had lost a lot of weight, and her rounded chin had become sharper. There are visible dark circles around the eye sockets, which must be covered up with heavy makeup every day.

"Leah, is the kingdom okay?" Sun Ran asked.

"It's a little trouble, but you don't have to worry, I'll take care of it." Toria instinctively comforted, her voice slurred, and she was so tired that she almost fell asleep.

Sun Ran didn't ask anymore and gently extinguished the magic lamp.

Actually, you don't have to ask. With just a few words coming out of the mouth of the magic apprentice in the alchemy room, Sun Ran already had a rough inference about the state of the kingdom.

The revenge army of Citis is claimed to be 500,000. With the two great righteousness of 'noble blood theory' and 'revenge for the dead lord', they attacked all the way, and the lords of the Holy Helmet Kingdom had no fighting spirit and were invincible.

Now, the Avengers have roughly reached Pittsburgh, 500 kilometers east of Red Dragon Fort. It was also the border fortress of the royal fiefdom.

Once Pittsburgh is breached, the Avengers will rush all the way outside the Red Dragon Fort without hindrance. The Red Dragon Castle is a lonely city that is difficult to defend, and it is only a matter of time before it is breached.

So, can Pittsburgh hold off the Avengers? No one expects that.

All in all, it's very, very bad. The Kingdom of the Holy Helmet will not necessarily fall, but the Lucio family will certainly be ousted.

"Russell, why don't you speak?" Toria spoke again in a daze.

"It's late, did you sleep?"

"I don't want to sleep, we haven't said a word all day long, and now it's a rare opportunity." Toria came to her senses again.

Sun Ran smiled: "Okay." I have good news for you. ”

Toria's eyes widened slightly, and she turned her head to look at Sun Ran, waiting for him to speak.

"In the research direction of the origin of spiritual power, I have made a big breakthrough. I've found that the problem of mana backlash is not inevitable and can be circumvented with some psychic techniques. Sun Ran said.

Toria was shocked and asked, "You mean, without the help of a staff, you can release high-level magic with your bare hands?" ”

Sun Ran nodded: "I have already had some results, but I haven't finalized it yet." Moreover, unleashing high-level magic with my bare hands is just one of the benefits I get from exploring the origin of spiritual power. As an added bonus, I've found some tricks to increase the cast speed of spells, allowing many spells to be near-instantaneous. However, like the former, they are still immature and need to be improved. ”

Becoming more and more shocked, Toria dodged the magic backlash and greatly increased the casting speed to near instantaneous, each of which broke the rules and barriers set by the game company.

She knew that this Russell would definitely be able to become a legendary mage in the end, and even surpass it. But she didn't expect Russell's footsteps to be so fast!

At this rate, perhaps in less than two years, he may truly realize the truth of the World Realm and realize the existence of the Reality World Realm, so as to obtain the true eighth-level authority and be promoted to the Legendary Realm.

'Once the magician has proved the existence of the real world in all aspects, and not just imagination. Then, the memory barrier will disappear automatically, and this magician is a legendary mage! This rule is set by the game company, it is a test, and it is a way for the company to select talents.

When the time comes, how can a twenty-three-year-old legendary mage embarrass those peerless geniuses of his time?

Toria remembered the current situation in the kingdom again, gritted her teeth, and asked, "Russell, if one day, I am no longer the queen of the Holy Helmet Kingdom, will you still be with me?" ”

"Of course, you're my wife." Sun Ran said.

Toria breathed a sigh of relief and told the truth: "The situation in the kingdom ....... is very bad, and it seems that I have no choice but to surrender. ”

"Why give up so early? Is it the so-called Avengers? ”

"Well, the scout's report is that there are 300,000 of them, almost all of them elite, and the siege equipment is complete, and we can't stop them." Toria said weakly.

She discovers that mortal warfare is not the same as imagined, and she is not the omnipotent goddess she used to be. After such a fight, she was going to lose. Anyway, she, the queen, will definitely not be able to do it.

Sun Ran smiled: "Isn't there still me?" I'll stop them then! ”

"Don't say stupid things." Toria's fingers lightly pressed Sun Ran's lips: "My throne is not important, the important thing is you, you can't have an accident." ”

An army of 300,000 and a battle mage group composed of hundreds of mages are not at all something that a great mage can resist.

The Great Magician is powerful, but not a god. He may be able to kill thousands of soldiers, but he won't change the situation.

So, it doesn't make sense.

"As long as we live, the common names of the world don't matter. You are a great magician, before the army comes, you can go back to Sky City, no one will embarrass you. ”

If a great magician fights hard, it is too terrifying, so as long as the great magician does not insist on getting in the way and kills a few people, even if it is a noble lord, no one will bother with him.

It's not that I don't want to, it's really not worth it.

"What about you?" Sun Ran asked.

"Me? When I finish dealing with the affairs of the Red Dragon Castle, I will come to you, and I will always be by your side in the future. Toria said.

Sun Ran was silent, and suddenly turned around for a long time, lying on Toriya's body, and said in a low voice: "I haven't been intimate for a long time, ...... tonight"

Before he could finish his sentence, Toria kissed him on the lips.

After a lot of rain and clouds, after the incident, Toria said, "You can leave tomorrow, don't worry about me." ”

"Well, I know it." Sun Ran replied vaguely.

"Be obedient, don't play with children's tempers, I'm serious!" Toria said seriously.

"Okay, I'll go back to Sky City tomorrow, I promise."

"That's good... Well, you're coming again! ”

……

The next day, Toria got up late, and when she woke up, the person on the pillow was gone, and a letter was left at the bedside, which was opened, and a line of words was Russell's handwriting.

"I'm leaving. — Russell. ”

I don't know what's going on with Lu Dao, although she knows the result of Lu Dao, Toria is still empty in her heart. In fact, deep down, she vaguely hoped that Russell could stay and face a strong enemy with her, but ...... Forget it, this is irrational, Russell is alive is the most important thing! (To be continued......)
