Chapter 1203: The Elven Army Arrives
"Princess Nina?" the Pope looked surprised, "She's not dead?"
"Of course not. Not only her, but also General Churchill, and a large number of soldiers of the Beit Empire. Jia Zhengjin replied, "The soldiers have been attritional, but most of them have been brought back by me safely, and they should have secretly entered the city and been resettled." ”
"That's good, that's good!" said the Pope, overjoyed, "Princess Nina is alive, and that's good news for us." What should we do if the headache affects morale, will the surrounding forces not dare to intervene and assist us in fighting the dark dragon. ”
"Lord Keane, His Majesty the Pope!" the priest who led the way came over and respectfully interrupted the two, "You two can go inside and talk slowly, now please ask Claire to resurrect our priest first!"
"Yes, yes!" the Pope nodded immediately, "this matter is more important. Claire, excuse me!"
"No problem!" Claire said with a rare look of seriousness, "Where's the person?"
"Please come with me!" said the Pastor who led the way at once respectfully.
When the pastor brought Claire into the church, the Pope looked at Jia Zhengjin: "Keane, tell me more about what happened when you went to save Princess Nina, and how you got out of danger? ”
"Excuse me!" Jia Zhengjin shook his head, "You don't need to tell me about your plan, and the less people know about it, the better." Just tell me and be 100% sure that the Dark Dragon can be controlled!"
"I dare not say 100 percent," the Pope shook his head, "but there is also a success rate of more than 90 percent." ”
"In other words, there is still a possibility of failure?" Jia Zhengjin frowned slightly.
"That's right, it's uncertain, because no one knows what's going to happen that day. The Pope replied, "Of course, we will try to be as perfect as possible according to the oracle of the God of Light, and as long as nothing goes wrong, then there will be no problems!"
"If you say that, I'm relieved!" Jia Zhengjin breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I only need to be in charge of the side of Kronos, the god of death." ”
"That's right," the Pope said, turning around, "come, let's go inside, and tell me what happened when you saved Princess Nina." ”
"What about Selmy?"
"I'll send someone!" the pope led the way, going straight into the church.
Jia Zhengjin immediately followed closely and walked inside with him.
This turmoil raged all night, whether it was Jia Zhengjin, the Pope or Sermi, in order to rearrange the defense forces and investigate the possibility of any enemy lurking, they barely closed their eyes, and were busy until dawn with countless priests and soldiers.
By the time the sun rose, everyone was sleepy, but it was also confirmed that there were no other lurkers in the city and that they were safe for the time being.
Sermi intensified the patrols of the army, and some places where people rarely passed by also sent teams to investigate back and forth, not sparing any corner.
In order to cooperate, Jia Zhengjin also built several imperial barracks and kobold camps overnight, and used the funds and materials contributed by the coastal state to recruit a large number of imperial soldiers and kobolds to consolidate the defense.
The appearance of the army of imperial soldiers was better, because knowing that other countries were coming to reinforcements one after another, the people of Mindoga City were not surprised, and only thought that it was reinforcements from other countries.
However, the kobold army frightened them, and many of them went out to work early in the morning, and when they saw a large number of kobolds patrolling the city, they thought that the country had been captured by the orcs! Many of them were so frightened that they hid in their homes and shivered, and closed their doors and windows. Many people even tried to flee with their families and belongings.
Fortunately, at the same time, Selmi sent officials to announce everywhere, explaining that the kobold were from the Holy Dragon City, and they were the army of the Holy Dragon City, and they were only responsible for defending the city, and they were not offensive to everyone. The populace, though still scared and trusting, at least stopped thinking of escaping, and some began to be emboldened to observe them secretly, and even cautiously come out to work while they were patrolling.
The Pope was old, and he looked much haggard after not sleeping all night. No matter how strong he is, he is just an old man, and adequate rest is quite important.
Jia Zhengjin and Claire are a little better, after all, they are both young and have relatively good physical fitness.
Especially Jia Zhengjin, it was the norm to surf the Internet all night before the crossing, except for the occasional heavy eyelids, he was quite sober.
Finally arranged it well, without worrying about the appearance of any more lurkers, the Pope finally couldn't hold on: "Keane, Claire, I have to go back and sleep." Unlike you young people, staying up late will make me age faster!"
"Well, it's okay now," Jia Zhengjin said, "Sermi met with Princess Nina, and made proper arrangements for the troops of the Beit Empire, and spread the news to the outside so that everyone could know." Princess Nina's safe return will be a great morale boost. The city defense is also assisted by my Imperial army and kobolds, and is now just waiting for reinforcements to arrive. You go to sleep in peace, I'll watch from here. ”
"If I were your age, there would be no problem!" said the Pope.
"Okay, leave it to me here!" Jia Zhengjin waved his hand, urging the Pope to leave.
The Pope was really sleepy, so he didn't say anything, nodded at Jia Zhengjin, and turned around and returned to the church.
"Keane, I'm so sleepy too~" Claire stood beside Jia Zhengjin pitifully and said weakly.
When there are people, she respectfully calls Jia Zhengjin "Lord Kean", and once there is no one around, she calls the word "Kean".
She was indeed busy all night long, and she didn't rest. Seeing the obvious dark circles under his eyes, Jia Zhengjin nodded and said, "Then you go back to the hotel to sleep first! They slept comfortably last night and no one bothered them, and it happened to take over today. ”
"Well, I'll go first...... then" Claire didn't even have the strength to joke now, and honestly turned away.
When he was the only one left, Jia Zhengjin couldn't help but open his mouth wide and yawn, blinking his astringent eyes.
Although all-nighters are nothing to him, he will still be tired.
However, there was no time to rest at all, and soon the general of Mindoga City rode his horse and galloped over, jumped down in front of him, and knelt down on one knee: "Lord Kean, there is an elven army outside the city, led by His Majesty the Elven King! General Semi ordered me to inform you and go together to pick up His Majesty the Elven King into the city! Of course, you also need your imperial army and kobold troops to help maintain order and try to avoid conflicts between the armies of other forces and the elves." ”
What Sermi meant Jia Zhengjin understood, after all, the temptation of elf slaves to humans was very great. Although this is a forbidden thing, it is difficult to ensure that the rulers of some countries will find it difficult to control themselves after seeing the elves. This kind of thing is not surprising, and it is also recorded in history, because of the coveting of elves, there are countless wars to capture them.
At present, although the various races are united, in fact, the elves are only familiar with themselves, and it is difficult to guarantee that they will not conflict with other human forces. When the time comes, it will be funny that you don't start a war with the Dark Dragon, but you fight in the nest first!
