"Poof!"

This is the sound of a catapult firing.

Several bundles of cluster bombs with fuses lit were thrown out, smashing into the city gate with precision, blasting the soldiers there into the sky.

This powerful explosive bomb is a weapon that bundles many small explosives and throws them together, which is somewhat similar to the common submunitions in warfare; When it hits near the city gate, it doesn't explode immediately, and the special rope breaks under the strong impact, and the explosives will be scattered around, and the killing area is quite amazing.

"Oh my god!"

Merlin only felt unsteady on his feet, and sat down on the ground from the tremor that came from afar.

The Imperial cavalry charged very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, they approached where everyone was, and Natsu immediately summoned the bone dragon Atasha when he noticed that something was wrong, and gathered everyone under its bare wings.

"Sir, an undead dragon has been found ahead, and there are some people of unknown origin, may I ask if you want to attack them?"

The scouts in the army, who were in charge of observing the battlefield, noticed the anomaly and shouted to the man standing in front of the phalanx.

"Dragons?"

"Give me the binoculars."

The commander of the siege was none other than Elio, who frowned and took the binoculars and looked in the direction of the bone dragon.

"Oops."

Because Xia's long silver hair was very eye-catching, he immediately realized who these people who suddenly appeared on the battlefield were, and quickly turned his head and ordered:

"Pass my order - all the soldiers try to avoid the skulldragon, don't attack the other side, and all go around!"

"Toot ——————!!"

The horn sounded on behalf of the warning, and the signalmen standing on the high place raised their flags.

Some of the charging cavalrymen had already approached the bone dragon, and they did not rashly attack the behemoth, but they were still wary of it. Two squads of cavalry spontaneously surrounded it, hundreds of spears aimed at its jagged body.

"Commander Elion's order, don't attack these people, all bypass!"

The liaison officer in the team shouted.

"Leave this dragon alone, keep rushing forward from both sides!"

The encirclement of the two cavalry teams spread out at once, and they split into two groups and rushed towards the city gate.

Saw the actions of friendly forces. The infantry phalanx behind also bypassed the area, and the armor of some people rubbed against the body of the bone dragon and made a loud noise.

"Oh my God, I finally got my life back."

Ready for a bloody battle, Abner threw his shield to the ground and gasped for air.

Although their team was protected by the bone dragon, the number of people was too different from the army in front of them; You must know that these are the regular troops of the Harlem Empire, all of them are the elite of the elite, and no one dares to say that they can retreat from the chaos with just a few dozen people.

"Sister, there are Imperial people on both sides."

Catwoman looked at the battlefield in disgust: "Let's leave these villains alone, let's go quickly." ”

"Captain. Aren't we allies with Commander Elio? Do you want to help them. ”

Merlin, who got up from the ground, dusted off the dirt on his body, and said a serious way.

"You're wrong."

Xia commanded the bone dragon to lie on the ground, asked the team members to climb on its back one by one, and said to Merlin without looking back:

"Our allies are the entire empire...... It's not Elio alone, it's not appropriate to take action on either side without permission; Moreover, the city of Leom did not provoke us, and the other side did not send us a plea for help, which would not only not be grateful, but resentful. ”

In fact, she didn't tell the real reason.

After a series of investigations by the artifact Lori.。 Now she has a clear grasp of the ins and outs of the civil strife in the empire, and even the little princess disappeared mysteriously. The news that Tasia was overbroken and fell ill in bed did not hide from her.

The loyalty of the Imperial soldiers is still very high, and as soon as Princess Tasia appeared, the people in the city of Leom and part of the army, instigated by the internal response that had been arranged, immediately rioted, besieging the government mansion and forcing the guards to hand over the little princess Dolinda.

But Dolinda was long gone in the dungeon. The high-level leaders, led by Regel and General Fei Li, were very clever and immediately opened the entire political institutions and let the angry people go in and look for themselves, but naturally no one could be found.

Then those who had been bribed by the aristocracy and the famous took the opportunity to fight back and began to trumpet royal conspiracy theories. There is also the eldest princess who is actually still in the original continent, and this is probably just an impostor found by Elio and others, and asked Tasia to enter the city to check and confirm her identity.

- How could Tasia be stupid enough to send another hostage herself? The talisman of the royal family can only save lives, but it cannot stop the insults of others; It is only possible to freely mobilize its power to reach the god-level powerhouse, so the two sides cannot reach a consensus at all, and in the end, it becomes an inevitable outcome to meet each other on the battlefield.

"Atasha, fly."

After everyone got on the dragon's back, she patted the bone dragon on the head:

"Don't fly too high, just get out of the battlefield as soon as possible."

The bone dragon spewed out dark dragon breath, and its body floated up from the center of the battlefield, and was about to fly to the side, when suddenly its head was vigilantly facing the east.

Over there, a silver-white orb appeared in the sky, and in the orb was a man dressed as a magician.

"Her Royal Highness Princess, please wait!"

The voice was somewhat familiar, and Natsu looked over there and saw that the magician was the new Grand Sage Duragar.

"Duragal, the princess of your empire is not far away, don't use that kind of misleading title anymore."

She kindly reminded the other party to arrive.

"Ha, it's okay, Princess Tasia is full of praise for you, she has already regarded you as her own sister, and she will never be unhappy when I say so."

The great sage still spoke as frivolously as before:

"Beautiful and touching silver-haired Highness, Elio and I have a request......"

"Want us to help fight? But it seems that no one else needs to interfere in this situation. ”

Xia, who was sitting on top of the bone dragon's head, gestured to the endless army below:

"Your forces can be said to have an absolute advantage, and you have large siege equipment behind you, and you don't need the help of others at all, you can completely capture Reom in half a day."

"That being said, we need a whole city, and we don't want to hurt too many innocent soldiers and civilians."

Duragar was clearly recalling the rhetoric that had been taught to him beforehand:

"I know that Princess Xia, you have the softest heart. He is also the kindest hearted; I can't bear to see the blood and the killing in front of me, I don't know if you can ......"

He lowered his voice and said something to Natsu.

……

"There is a dragon ————!!"

On top of the walls of Reom, soldiers screamed as they desperately threw stones and burning oil drums.

A large shadow swept through the air, descending into the city with a dense stream of bows and arrows and magic.

"Rush down!"

As soon as the pitch-black bone dragon landed, the daring soldiers who were clinging to all corners of the dragon's body jumped down from it. Kill towards the town hall.

"-Stop them!"

Regel and the others have always attached great importance to their own safety, and have gathered a large number of guards around the government office, these guards are elites who have been trained in various regions of the New World, and their combat experience and strength should not be underestimated.

“LV42，LV45…… Hey, the one at the back actually has LV50. ”

The silver-haired princess hidden in the jaw of the bone dragon quietly launched a stealth and slipped out, looking at the data bar that the black-clothed little Lori called up for herself.

"Master, we shouldn't have accepted this commission, I always feel that the people of the empire are not well-intentioned."

The little Lori in black said with a worried face:

"Although your rank is much higher than these people. The defense level has also been increased with a shield, but this is the enemy's base camp after all......"

"Stephanie, your understanding of the concept of offensive and defensive levels is still a little worse."

Natsu used the Nightmare Shadow to move into the shadows, where he lurked quietly, waiting for the bone dragon striding towards the town hall to become the target of the enemy's fire, and then took advantage of the chaos to find the entrance to the tunnel that Duragal had spoken, opened the secret door and slipped inside.

"As long as you are 1 stage higher than the opponent, it will be difficult to hit. damage reduction and various advantage bonuses; Besides, I now have this shield. ”

She shook the small blackened shield on her hand.

"Black Dragonscale Shield."

Defense Level +2

30% reduction in damage from humans

Shield Intrinsic Attribute: Defense Amplification Effect ......

A series of data shows that the shield is unusual, and it is an item solemnly given to her by Commander Elio before she arrives.

Although others can't see the system data. But testing can make up for this perception, just one defense level +2 has already made this shield the best of the best, not to mention some other additional attributes.

"Amulet, open!"

Natsu whispered the incantation in the empty tunnel.

A glimmer of light appeared on her body, slightly conspicuous in the darkness, but soon disappeared into her clothes.

"Tasia deserves to be the princess of the most powerful country in the continent. It's a good thing as soon as it comes out. ”

She looked at her arm with satisfaction, poked her finger at it, and began to move deeper into the tunnel.

The function of this light is similar to that of the school uniform.,It has the function of being like a protective shield.。 But the gift from the princess of the empire, the effect is naturally not the same.

"It's not a golden light. This is probably only for ordinary people, but it is also for ordinary people...... Enough is enough. ”

She slipped out of the tunnels and into a damp dungeon.

"This seems to be a place for criminals."

Looking at the loose shackles in the metal fence of the dungeon, as well as some sanitary ware and rice bowls scattered on the ground, Xia didn't stay in this empty dungeon for long, and walked all the way up.

"Wow, master, that's a lot of metal ore!"

The little Lori in black touched the east and looked west, and from time to time drilled into the wall and the closed door, and found a lot of rare ores in a door, and shouted in surprise.

"What kind of ore is this?"

Xia unceremoniously split the door lock with a sword, raised his foot and kicked the door open and walked in, picked up a beautiful stone glowing with purple light, looked at it, and handed it to the little Lori in black:

"These ores have been ground and processed, and the volume is not large, so take them all away!"

Since the other party asked him to help, it was also appropriate to get a little benefit, not to mention that there are so many ores here, no one can suspect that she is a petite girl.

Speaking of which. In addition to rubbing oil openly, this is the first time that someone has become complacent because he has become a girl.

“LV63”。

Glancing at his rank, Xia Anxin walked out.

Compared with the guards outside, the advantages of 2-3 basic offensive and defensive levels, sophisticated equipment, powerful talisman treasures and rich combat experience all made her full of confidence. There is no need for the artifact Lori to explore the path in front of her little by little before she dares to act.

"Someone's coming in!"

As soon as she got out of the dungeon gate, the patrolling guards spotted her and blew their whistles and rushed towards her.

"It's been a long time since I've been in a head-on battle with humans, and I've been fighting monsters all the time."

The silver-haired girl turned her arm, her eyes full of war:

"-I'm going to use you to practice your hands today!"

She put her sword back into her back and lunged at the guards with her shield.

"Peng!" "Peng!" "Peng!"

With three muffled noises in a row, the three guards were directly slapped into the sky by her shield and fell heavily to the ground.

"Stephanie, don't take the ore just yet. Raised the Shield Warrior class to LV30 and let me play a little. ”

Xia transmitted to the little Lori in black.

Anyway, this time her mission is just a feint, and the real goal is for Elio and Duragal to complete it personally.

So what's so bad about having fun here?

"It's a female spy, catch her and interrogate her!"

When they saw Natsu's appearance clearly, which did not hide his face, the guards' eyes widened.

These are the itchy ones who waited outside when the female soldiers humiliated the little princess Dolinda, but in the end they didn't really eat her; Suddenly saw the amazing beauty of the silver-haired girl in front of him, how could these hungry ghosts in color let go?

"Smack!"

Natsu slapped her shield one of the guards' faces.

After the shield left. The man's eyes rolled upward, and his two front teeth slowly fell out. The whole body fell backwards, and he was knocked unconscious by this blow.

"What a female spy!"

The other guards were a little more careful, and instead of ramming them up one by one, they slowly surrounded her, and little by little they moved closer to the middle.

"Butterfly Shield Strike!"

Xia Na would give them a chance to get close, and directly released a new skill that they had just learned. The shield in his hand drew an afterimage, like a fluttering butterfly fluttering on the guards' long-handled weapons, swinging them all away.

"Fall for me!"

Then came a vicious leg sweep, and the ankle wrapped in black silk slammed into the guard's iron boots, and the metal boots actually showed a pit. Probably because he hated the other party's obscene eyes looking at him, Xia used a lot of strength this time, and the joints in the boots of the first person who were swept were directly dislocated, and he fell to the ground screaming loudly.

"Wait, wait!"

The guards watched with horror as the silver-haired girl approached them, and then their eyes suddenly went dark, and they didn't know anything.

"It's boring."

Natsu clapped her hands, removed the soles of her shoes from the face of the last guard, and turned her head to look in the direction of the Leum immigration office.

With the artifact Lori's pervasive exploration, it was easy to find the hiding place of Regel and the others, who were now hiding in what seemed to be a small space and had poor facilities, but it was actually the most sturdy building in the entire city.

"I hope Elio and Duragal can catch each other's leaders as soon as possible and bring the situation under control."

Not everyone is as reluctant to kill as she is, and in the fierce battles inside and outside the city, people fall every moment, and more than one life is lost every second.

Being able to end this civil war as soon as possible is also one of the reasons why she is willing to accept the other party's conditions.

At this time, in the immigration office, Regel was sitting in his position trembling.

"You can't mess around!"

He looked at Duragar, who was flying in the air, and said:

"I am a descendant of twelve nobles appointed by His Majesty the Emperors......"

"Did you think about this when you imprisoned Her Royal Highness Princess Dolinda?"

Elio's handsome face showed anger:

"Originally, my sword was supposed to pierce your chest here, but the Lord's order was to capture you alive, so you'd better sit there and stay still, lest I accidentally kill you!"

"I don't move!"

Regier exclaimed, with trembling legs:

"I must not move......"

Acting terrified, his hand quietly pressed the button under the seat. (To be continued......)
