readx;? At noon that day, the entire Hansha City was in a panic. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo*>

A dark shadow obscured the sun. Like a flying beast, the airship travels from west to east above the city at a very low altitude and at a very slow speed. The attack man-made flying machine flew so low that even the spire of the palace almost collided with the belly of the ship. The citizens below can clearly see with the naked eye that the number on this float ship is exactly the same as the float ship that broke into the Pole Kingdom more than ten years ago.

In the past, the invasion of this airship triggered a war between the Crusaders and the Snowy Federation, and now, the same airship invaded again, and appeared in the sky above the Hansar Palace so undisguisedly, it was an extremely serious threat and blatant provocation, does this mean that the magicians of the Snowy Federation will go to war with the Kingdom of Pole?

Since the establishment of the Heath dynasty, the peaceful life that has prevailed for many years is no longer maintainable. Over the past year or so, the citizens of Hansar have experienced too many frightening things. First the rebellion led by General Jean Neda, then the incident of the Tower of Seven Sins, then the week of terror caused by the invasion of the Bloods, and now this incident has caused panic among the people of Hansarsa. Originally, King Duris, who was regarded as a hero by his subjects, could have stabilized the situation, but the king had not shown up for many days, so that rumors spread and further increased the panic among the citizens.

It is not only ordinary people who are stimulated by the airship, but also those military personnel who are deeply humiliated.

The streets had been taken over by neatly lined troops, and all sorts of heavy crossbows were hoisted with flaming clusters of arrows. In the sky, dozens of griffon knights circled around the flying ship, and the palms of the knights' clenched spears were already oozing with sweat, and they just waited for the commander to give an order, and smashed the long-standing spears into the glass porthole.

However, until the dark shadow of the float ship was far away from the palace, the soldiers on the ground did not fire heavy crossbow arrows, and the knights in the sky did not throw throwing spears, because the order to attack was never given. The heralds went back and forth between the troops, conveying Queen Catherine's supreme order that no one should be allowed to act rashly unless the enemy did not strike first.

With the current strength of the Hansha City guards, it would be easy to destroy a lone intruding airship, but serious military discipline overwhelmed personal dignity. The anger of the army was suppressed. The soldiers complained, but none of them dared to disobey the order.

Finally, this tense confrontation came to an end. It seems that the float ship took the initiative to give in, it raised its bow and quickly climbed high into the air, out of the airspace of Hansha City.

However, the surrounding griffon knights were not reassured, and they drove their mounts and followed closely behind the unrestrained guest, tracking them for a day and a night, until they finally decided to return when they confirmed that the airship was heading towards the territory of the forest elves.

Although this incident later became an excuse used by many ministers to criticize Queen Catherine, it also indirectly proved that the real power of the army is still firmly controlled by Queen Catherine.

......

At dusk, the airship, which had caused enough trouble for Queen Catherine, was now located in a small col not far from the Elven Forest. After a tired day, the friends are sitting at the table in the airship and starting to enjoy the day's dinner.

The Float made its way to its original target, the Avenger camp on the edge of the Elven Forest, but had to stop before reaching their destination due to damage to the automatic flight system. Perhaps because she was about to return to her hometown, Bez, the winged elf, did not make a lot of noise as usual, nor did she engage in those shoddy pranks, but was surprisingly quiet behind the porthole, watching the scenery outside.

Seeing the empty seat beside her, which originally belonged to the knight Leonard Green, Sophia was filled with emotion. Cassius was battling the food, and only Joeyka could see what was going on in her mind.

"Sophia, you see we didn't do a pretty job today. gave the woman a dismissal, and she probably didn't dare to trouble us for a long time in the future. Joyka teased in an ostentatious manner.

He deliberately pulled the topic away from Sophia to prevent her from continuing to look at things and think about people.

"What is the real point of you doing this?" Sophia asked rhetorically, "why do such a frivolous thing when it has already been discussed and not pursued? ”

"You can swallow this breath, I can't. Who told her to set up a game for us to drill? If you don't give her a little 'slight' revenge, I'm not Uncle Joyka. ”

But Queen Catherine did not admit that she had instigated the attacks. Cassius looked up from a pile of pots, a few beans still sticking to his big chubby face.

"Keep eating yours!" Joyka grabbed a few peanuts and threw them at Cassius, "What do you know besides eating, you fat man?" the woman was anxious to clear up, but that she had something to do with the attacks. It's called 'being a thief', you know a fart!"

"Joyka, no matter what you say, whether Catherine is behind it or not, we are not harmed, and the poison in Cassius is also a non-lethal toxin. Even if we are unwilling in our hearts, we should not involve other people. Sophia said.

"Your 'Madonna' personality is too 'fraternal', isn't it? Joyka retorted, "You think you don't want to implicate other people, so you really don't have to?" Tell you, your thinking will only become a weakness to be seized by the enemy, and if you don't make a quick decision at the critical moment, more people will be implicated." ”

Sophia could tell that Joyka's current remarks were largely due to Elizabeth. Although Joyka never mentioned anything related to Elizabeth, and behaved as usual in front of Sophia and Cassius, laughing and hanging, Sophia knew that Elizabeth's death had a great impact on him, and although Joyka tried her best to cover it up, she always inadvertently revealed it in her usual words and deeds. "Joika, you ......" Sophia tried to comfort Joika, but as soon as she spoke, she didn't know what to say.

Apparently, Joyka also saw her gaffe from Sophia's reaction. So he deliberately raised his voice with a complaint, "Oh, it's really a pity! It's not enough to show off your power at a super low altitude in the palace, just now you should have taken two tons of gold directly from the treasury of the palace, this is the punishment that provokes my Uncle Joyka." Why don't we go and kill the rifle now?"

"Two tons of gold? It's too heavy for our ship to fly. Cassius vetoed Joyka's suggestion with his expertise.

"No, the gold is the money of the state treasury, and we cannot harm the interests of the country for our own selfish desires. Sophia joined the opposition from another corner.

"I'll just talk about it. Joyka spread her hands, an expression of "I knew you would react this way."

The cabin was quiet again, and only the sound of eating could be heard.

"I said, there's one thing we have to think about. As if unable to stand the calm, Joyka opened the conversation again, "The undead assassin and the black knight who attacked Sophia, and the pirate who operated the ghost ship, who are they sacred?"

As soon as this serious issue was raised, Sophia and Cassius shuddered.

Until today, Sophia, Joica, and Cassius had been busy investigating information about Queen Catherine and her attacks with the Night Stalkers and the Griffons, and they ignored the more dangerous attack that took place between them. This is not only the reason why the partners are busy, but also one of the important reasons for ideological avoidance. However, now that the main problem seems to have been solved, this neglected issue has to be taken seriously.

"Whether it's the undead assassin or the black knight, they've all killed me. I don't think any of them were Queen Catherine's people. Thinking back to what happened that night, Sophia still felt a chill behind her.

"I know they have nothing to do with Catherine, the undead assassin and the female black knight not only attacked you, but also fought each other, indicating that they are two opposing forces behind each other. But since they are hostile to each other, they invariably attack you, I don't think it's a coincidence. Sophia, is there something in you that they want?", Joeyka analyzed.

"I don't know. Sophia shook her head, "If we had caught the black knight in that forest, the mystery would have been solved." But ......"

"If I had known, I would have set up a few more ice walls to intercept them. Cassius uttered a non-nutritious remark and continued to "fight to the death" with the food in front of him.

"It's a pity that now all the clues are broken. Unless we wait for their next attack, our investigation will only be like headless flies scurrying around. Joyka pinched the stubble that had just grown from her chin.

"Actually, it's not hard to guess their identities. Sophia said, "The undead assassin and the female black knight have one thing in common, they both use the death energy of dark magic. There are three undead forces in Olopa, and we've already dealt with one of them, the Vampires......"

Joyka took her words, "That means it's possible that they're from the other two undead forces, the Isle of the Dead, controlled by the Lich King, and the city-state of Nairlo, ruled by the Death Knights. ”

"No way!The Undead Triumvirate is an alliance with each other, how can the Lich King and the Death Knight be enemies of each other?" Cassius, though his mouth was stuffed with food, immediately raised his objection.

"It's hard to say, now that the vampire prince is dead and the solid triangle has been taken a corner, it's no surprise that anything will happen. "It's a pity that Owen, who is most familiar with the Lich King and the Isle of the Dead, is not here at this time, otherwise we wouldn't be so passive." ”

"I haven't seen Ray in a while, I wonder if he and Owen are done with their business in the Rocard Empire? Cassius also thought about his brother.

Hearing the mention of Owen, Sophia involuntarily stroked the half handkerchief tied around her right wrist. She closed her eyes, opened them two seconds later, and said in a resolute tone, "We can't rely on Owen for everything. Although I don't know what Owen and Ray encountered in the Rocal Empire, I believe that if they encounter no less difficulties than us at this time, they will definitely find a way to solve them themselves, and they will never cause trouble to their companions. ”/>
