Chapter 262: Upheaval
Daweipur Province, Golden Flower City.
Different from the prosperity and wealth of the past, today's Golden Flower City is full of cries and fights.
A group of cavalrymen wearing armor and masks, armed with knights' spears, rode iron horses and trampled into the Golden Flower City.
Each of them exudes fluctuations of extraordinary power.
Inside the estate of the Count of Lombar.
"Lord Earl, you can't stay any longer, you must move immediately and leave Golden Flower City!"
Standing in front of Count Lombal was none other than Kirke.
At this time, Kirk was holding a weapon and looked anxious.
Just half a day ago, the front suddenly transmitted the information that the powerful cavalry of the Principality of Watta was preparing for the current Golden Flower City.
In the intelligence, the cavalry of the invaders was described as terrible.
Each of them is like a killing machine, each of them is an extraordinary being, they gallop all the way, fight all the way, and face all the passes and defenses, for them are vulnerable.
Their appearance, as if out of thin air, ran all the way from the border to here.
Golden Flower City was a long way to the border, and it took them less than a day and a night to completely conquer it.
The speed was so fast that the messengers who delivered the news failed to deliver the news in the first place.
It wasn't until half a day ago that the news reached Golden Flower City.
Count Lombal, who received the news, immediately arranged the way back for his family, and he handed over all his minor heirs to his cronies, so that they could take their descendants to a remote place far away from the Golden Flower City to raise them.
As for his adult heirs, the Earl of Lombal arranged for them to go to the territory near the Golden Flower City.
"Kirk, you can go too. ”
The Count of Lombal looked rather calm.
In fact, when he received the news in the morning, he seemed to have expected this to happen, and he was so calm that people couldn't figure it out.
"What about you, Lord Earl?"
Kirk's tone was anxious, and his concern for Count Lombal was from the bottom of his heart.
Kirk still didn't understand why the Count was so calm about the enemy's attack.
Even if the enemy is terrible, as long as you flee immediately, even if Jinhua City is occupied today, there is still a chance to fight back in the future.
But now the Count of Lombal seems to have completely accepted the enemy's attack.
"Me?"
Count Lombal smiled slightly: "I'm going to wait here until the last moment." ”
"Last minute?"
Kirk's pupils shrank, and the Earl's tone gave him a very bad feeling.
"Kirk, whether I run away or not today, the end will be death. ”
Kirk was shaken by what Count Lombal said, and the Count stood up and walked in front of him: "Just last night, His Excellency Fidley of the Knights of the Holy Light brought me a piece of news. ”
"Lord Fidley?"
Kirk frowned.
Fidley is the mid-to-high-level presence of the Knights of Light in the Southeast Continent, and although he belongs to the neutral camp, he has a good personal relationship with Count Lombal.
"Yes. Earl Lombal nodded, "Just last night, the Duchy of Langton, the beloved Grand Duke, my lord, died. ”
"The royal family of the Duchy of Langton...... It has perished. ”
Rumble!
Kirk's head roared, and he felt his body tremble dizzily.
"The news is still locked down in the royal city, but Fidley told me the news. Ignoring the numb Kirk, Count Lembal continued, "For the sake of personal relations, he also said something that should not have been said. ”
"For example, Golden Flower City will be the first central city of the province to be targeted by the enemy, and I, the head of Rembar, will be their possession. ”
It was as if the Count of Lombal was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
"Lord Earl......"
Kirk didn't know what to say anymore.
"Listen, Kirk. Count Lombal suddenly put his hand on Kirk's shoulder, "No one knows what fate will decide, just as I didn't expect this to happen." ”
"Relaxing, thinking back on your life, changing the important trajectory of your life, is never planned, is it?"
Count Lembal suddenly laughed: "Kirk, you go, take my young son Witch, leave here, away from the Duchy of Langton, and flee to the open sea." ”
"You may not know, but under my command, there is also a special elite guard. ”
Count Lombal continued to say to Kirk: "That's the special guard set up by my great-grandfather, the first Earl of Daweipur. They have their own genius training system, which is led by each generation of counts. Now there are two high-ranking knights in this guard, and dozens of transcendents, you take them with Wych. ”
"Unless the Duchy of Langton can be restored, don't come back. ”
After saying this, the Count of Lombal sighed softly, but at the same time, he seemed to let go of something.
"Lord Earl......"
At this time, Kirk's eyes were red, and his body was still a little trembling.
"I will definitely protect the safety of Master Wych, even if it costs my life. ”
Suddenly Kirk got down on one knee and did the standard chivalric etiquette to Count Lombard.
"Let's go, Kirk, they're waiting for you at the back door of the manor. ”
The Count of Lombal turned away, not looking at Kirk again.
Kirk stared at the back of Count Lombal as if he wanted to memorize the scene completely.
"The subordinates retired. ”
Kirk's voice was hoarse, and the words fell, and Kirk left the room.
The Count of Lombal was the only one left in the empty room.
"There is a time when the glory comes to an end, the lord is dead, and it doesn't seem to be a pity that I am loyal to the lord. ”
The Count of Lombal muttered to himself.
Minutes and seconds passed.
The originally quiet Earl's Manor suddenly heard the sound of commotion and fighting.
"Are you here......
The Count of Lombal stood up and straightened his shirt and cuffs.
After making sure that he was neatly dressed, he picked up a swift sword for decoration.
He placed the swift sword at his side and walked towards the house.
......
White Bear Town.
"Tomorrow is my eldest brother's wedding, why are you still working?"
Dressed in a white dress, Vilia pushed open the door of Willy's study and complained to Willy in front of her desk.
"The eldest brother will get married tomorrow, but he is still handling government affairs in the pro-military department. ”
Willy retorted to Velia.
"Slightly. ”
Vilia grimaced at Willy, then stepped forward, "Willy, why can't I be the flower girl at my big brother's wedding tomorrow?"
Willy glanced at Vilia, this little girl came to find her, and sure enough, she had other purposes.
The wedding customs of this world also have the existence of flower girls.
Vilia is very fond of the status of the flower girl, following the beautiful bride, holding the flower basket in her hand, as if she is also a bride.
Almost every little girl of this age has this unrealistic idea.
"You should ask your mother, not me. ”
Willy flicked at Vilia's skull: "You're too old, according to your mother, the age of a flower girl is under six, but you, Vilia, you're eight years old." ”
"But ......"
Veria wanted to defend something, but was directly driven away by Willy: "Leave my study, don't delay my work, or I will tell my mother that you will use even the only day of rest a week to study cultural lessons." ”
"You ......"
Velia made a fierce expression, but seeing Willy's serious look, she shook her head helplessly: "Goodbye!"
However, just as Velia was about to open the door, a guard with a letter suddenly broke in.
"Your Excellency, urgent information. ”
The guards hurriedly handed the letter to Willy.
"Huh?"
Willy frowned and took it.
When he opened the letter and browsed it, his face changed drastically. 8)
