The appearance of poisonous snakes in front of the battle is already a big trouble.

Unexpectedly, this kind of disaster even extended to the camp, making the situation terrible.

Infantry were constantly bitten by black snakes, and soon they fell to the ground paralyzed and unable to move.

The middle and rear battalions exploded directly, and no one had time to check the fallen soldiers.

In the face of the black snake, they are afraid to avoid it.

The few people who sensed the clue shouted loudly, snake venom can only paralyze, not kill.

But in the chaotic camp, the shouts were like candles in the wind, and no one answered.

In the panic, the illuminated brazier was knocked over, and the burning torch fell to the ground.

Tents and wooden carts set fire to fire, but no one could extinguish them.

The cold wind was like a sharp sword, stirring the fierce flames, and they became more and more intense.

The flames, with a terrible temperature, swayed constantly.

Arrows, crossbows, spears, and shields were thrown to the ground at will, and screams and wails came and went.

And the corpses that were paralyzed, lying on the ground and being burned to death, but could not let out a single scream.

Woo~

A trumpet, shorter than the first two.

This is a signal to retreat.

The situation is irreparable.

Even if Prince Philip was unwilling, he had to give the order to evacuate.

He has no power to return to heaven.

Even if you look at your knees, you can think that these damn vipers must have been the work of the Monte army, most likely the work of some witch.

In this case, the plan to lead the army back to Monte, kill Queen Helen, welcome back Snow White, and then use the heir to merge the two kingdoms is a bit of a fool's dream.

Even now, Prince Philip still has nothing to do with these black snakes.

Burn it with fire, and you won't burn it all.

Cut it with a knife, and you can't cut it all.

Nothing can be taken away except for corpses and humiliation all over the ground.

"Withdraw!"

Princess Maria, who was in the back camp, was very flustered and withdrew from the camp under the cover of the maid.

Philip sat on the white horse and looked fiercely at the firelight for a few times before he gritted his teeth and retreated.

......

Storm Valley, Monte Camp.

Ayuya had spent a lot of energy, rubbing her temples and resting in her chair.

Since joining the team, her position has been relatively marginal.

In terms of getting the news, Ayuya is not as good as the charming Ronan, and she is not as good as the illusionary Tamamo front.

When it comes to investigating intelligence, she has little contact with people, and often can't talk about ideas, and can't achieve the expected results.

This time, I finally came across something that I could do to my strengths, and I must do it seriously.

Ayuya's purpose in joining the team was to find the former Ronan?? Bruce.

But now she has no achievements for the team and has no substantial contributions.

Even if he found a clue in the future, he wanted to ask Tamamo and Ronan to help, but he couldn't say it.

This sense of urgency to prove her worth made her even more diligent in controlling the snake.

Ayuya clenched her fists and secretly made up her mind.

She looked at Helen pacing back and forth in the tent?? Teresa, but her gaze drifted outside.

Tamaki's mission is to find the hidden traitor, but he has not shown up so far.

Will she ......

What went wrong?

The sound of footsteps, from far and near, interrupted the thoughts.

Queen Helen adjusted her facial mood and turned to the door.

A pot-bellied general lifted the curtain and entered, the silver armor looking extremely ill-fitting.

About the results of the battle, it has been written on his smug smiling face.

"Her Royal Highness, great victory, great victory!"

Hearing the shout, Helen's tense brow relaxed.

The general's emotions were a little excited, and he said with body movements: "Their war horses don't know what the reason is, they suddenly broke halfway, and the rear camp was even more on fire, and now they are all withdrawn, God bless me Monte!"

The black snake summoned by Ayuya is not substance.

Even if it is hacked and burned, the snake corpse will directly turn into ashes, leaving no clues.

The level of science and technology in the fairy tale world has not yet invented equipment such as glass and telescopes.

The two armies faced each other, separated by about a kilometer.

From such a distance, it is difficult to see how Verga's team was defeated with the naked eye.

Anything that cannot be explained can only be attributed to miracles or the blessings of God.

Helen glanced at Ayuya without a trace, and then faced the fat general with a polite attitude:

"I'm tired of Earl Charles personally reporting it, so what should I do next?"

As the queen, ask the earl for instructions.

In addition to seeking advice, this act also has the meaning of respect.

The Earl pulled the belt of his trousers, the smile on his face was undiminished, and he held his head high and said, "I have sent someone to clean up the battlefield, and I will report it later." As for Verga's team, they withdrew too quickly to catch up. However, rest assured, Her Royal Highness. They have left a lot of heavy grain and grass, and it is estimated that they will not come again in the short term. Haha, this victory is the same as picking it up for nothing. ”

Helen smiled in response, her expression stretched, and the stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.

The Count saw Ayuya in the tent and sighed, "Who is this?"

"Ah......" Helen came back to her senses and smiled a little awkwardly, "It's my distant relative." ”

"Well, I didn't say Her Majesty had relatives before......"

Speaking of this, Earl Charles knew that he was out of shape and bowed lightly: "I'm sorry, I was abrupt." ”

The Count was serious. ”

"I went to urge them to carry away the collected baggage as soon as possible and return to the Rhine as soon as possible. ”

"Trouble the Earl. ”

"Your Majesty is polite, this is what I have to do. ”

He peeked at Ayuya a few more times, lifted the curtain and left.

......

The assault on Verga ended in a crushing failure.

Leaving part of the garrison in Storm Valley, the rest followed Helen's large force back to the Rhine.

During this period, I never saw Tamamo in front of it, so I don't know where I went.

Prince Philip suffered huge losses in this battle, and he was resentful.

He had a nobleman in Monterey who secretly cooperated, so he added to the description of the situation.

On the afternoon of Empress Helen's return to the Rhine, rumors spread that she was a witch.

At the beginning, through the big-mouthed maid in the palace, it was rumored that she had a strange magic coat.

This kind of bad thing in Chen Ke's old valley many years ago has been turned over by people with ulterior motives.

Coupled with the rumors that the queen poisoned Princess Maria, all kinds of things before and after constitute the conclusive 'evidence'.

Before the evening celebration began, the wind in the city became faintly wrong.

Those nobles who were grassy began to contact in private, secretly fanning the flames.

Conservatives, who are in a neutral position, are also hesitant in this turmoil.

Letting a witch rule Monte is a precedent that has never been seen before.

Helen?? Teresa has no idea what is going on in the dark, and is busy preparing for the celebration feast.

Soon, it was getting dark.

The sky is cloudless, and the moonlight is long.

On the brick roof tiles, a slender black shadow flashed quickly......
