"Is Her Royal Highness the princess gone? ⌒，.23＋wx.”

Kevin sat in his chair and looked at the golden scroll on the table with great relief.

"I can't find anyone anymore, General, I should have left."

One of the Dark Guards said in the shadows:

"The soldiers guarding the gate didn't see anyone going out, and her movements were very secretive."

"Huh...... The kingdom already has a little princess Evelyn, is there another princess who aspires to be a thief? It's ridiculous. ”

Kevin picked up the golden scroll and flicked it in his hand:

"2,000,000 gold coins, Golden Warhammer Chamber of Commerce...... She was able to get such a large sum of money and gave it to me without hesitation.

He seems to be sighing:

"That old guy Sid still thinks she's a cold and heartless princess, unfit to sit on the throne, what a joke!"

At this time, his nose suddenly twitched, and he frowned:

"Why is it so humid, it's going to rain?"

He got up and went to the window, looking out with his hands behind his back.

At some point, there was a black cloud in the sky, completely obscuring the starlight overhead, and a gust of wind blew from the northwest, mixed with tiny rain stars, and kept crashing around.

Kevin's body seemed to be covered with an invisible film, and the raindrops avoided him one after another, and the strong wind didn't even blow a single hair of his hair.

A dazzling white light suddenly flashed not far to the west, and the black cloud was lifted into a corner, followed by a roar from the sky, and a heavy rain crackled down.

The white wolf, who had been resting in the house, suddenly pricked up his ears, got up from the ground, ran to the window, and looked up at the west.

"What's wrong, Bing Yin."

Kevin touched its head, which was almost up to his chest:

"Still thinking about the Goldwing? (A flying monster with golden wings and delicious flesh.) It's a pity that now we can't go up to the mountains to hunt. Otherwise, you can try to catch one. ”

He turned back to his chair, sat down on it, and asked:

"What's going on over there Bella, that eldest lady doesn't have a good temper, did those bastards break into her boudoir?"

"No, General."

The Dark Guard in the Shadows replied:

"Bella seemed tired and had been sleeping in her bedroom. We had already thoroughly inspected the house when we handed it over to her, and there were no tunnels or secret doors in the bedrooms, so the soldiers were only guarding the outside, not entering. ”

"Alva once suggested that I should build a team of female soldiers, but I vetoed it."

Kevin touched his stubble:

"Now it seems that there is a little bit of truth in this mention...... But who will lead them? I don't want to find a lucky kid past and build a legit post. Gong, his grandmother's, and Lao Tzu have never enjoyed this kind of treatment. ”

He slapped the golden scroll. To the Dark Guard:

"Remember to put this thing away for a while, and take it outside to exchange it for magic crystals or grain, and now the gold coins are becoming less and less valuable."

The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, the wind kept blowing over the streets, and in the lightning and thunder, rain curtains hung down from the eaves, and the originally dark night turned white. "Crackle!" "Crackle!" The rain lines were swept by the wind, like countless whips on the windows and walls. It's terrifying to hear.

The white wolf let out a low roar in his throat, and a fierce look shot from his eyes. Staring at the dark mountains to the west, the hair on his body stood on end.

"Ice Hide?"

Kevin rarely saw the white wolf behave like this, and he gently slammed the bottom of his boot on the ground.

This was the signal that he and the white wolf had used for more than ten years, and as soon as it heard this sound, it would immediately run to the old general's side, and then wait for it there.

But tonight I don't know why. The signal actually failed.

"Wooh...... Woo ......"

The white wolf's mouth was still making a threatening sound, but in the face of the torrential rain and the roaring thunder, the sound seemed a little weak.

"This guy, what kind of madness is he doing today."

Although this wolf has the blood of a monster, it is still a beast in his bones. Kevin didn't bother with it.

"Wild...... ? ”

The old general leaned back in his chair and whispered:

"I haven't experienced anything like this in years."

"Lord Kevin, what you want."

There was a knock at the door.

"Put it down, get out."

Kevin closed his eyes.

There was so much going on during this time, he needed to sort out the context.

As the minutes passed, the old general's heart suddenly sounded an alarm and he opened his eyes.

"Why is there so much water on the ground?"

He got up from his chair, the sound of clattering water under his feet.

The fort has been built for hundreds of years, and although it has been repaired and rebuilt several times during this time, most of the houses are still old, and many of the walls have cracks that allow the water to seep in.

"General, something is wrong."

The Dark Guard's voice was a little anxious:

"It's raining so much, the streets are full of water now, the sewers built the year before last are completely useless, the water is still rising, and if it continues like this, the whole inner city will be flooded in a few hours!"

"What the hell! When did Pampol have a flood? ”

Kevin scolded and kicked the table next to him.

"Pass my order, and tell all the inhabitants to take shelter outside with their necessities, and all go to the high ground east of the city!"

He took the sword off his waist, took out a heavy greatsword from the cupboard, and carried it behind his back.

"Bingyin, don't call out there, follow me."

He shouted at the white wolf, opened the door and walked out.

As soon as I walked into the street, there was a thunderclap overhead, and the rain shot down from the sky like an arrow, and the roofs, the streets, the trees, ...... There was a white mist of rain, but then it was blown away by the strong wind, and the torrential rain poured down so overwhelmingly that the water on the ground was knee-high.

"Go east! Go east—"

Soldiers screamed in the rain and knocked on the door from house to house, pulling out those who did not want to leave their homes and joining the rest of the evacuees.

"Kevin. What the hell are you doing? ”

Bella also appeared in the street with a group of people, covered in a silvery glow, and there was no rain at all, and the rest of them were all turned into chickens.

"Are you blind, Miss."

Kevin impatiently shouted to her:

"Look at the water in this city! Listen to the thunder in your ears, don't you know what's going on? Get out of here with your guards. I don't want your dad to cry and ask me for someone in the future! ”

Bella was about to say something, but the short-haired red-haired maid grabbed her arm, pulled her back, and then picked her up at the sound of her screams.

"Sabrina, you, how did you behave so rudely? Put me down. ”

Bella looked at the red-haired maid's face in surprise.

"Ahh

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly felt a hard pinch on her ass.

"Miss...... The surprise is yet to come. ”

The red-haired maid bowed her head and whispered in her ear:

"What you've done to me over the years, I'll do it all one by one. Please look forward to it. ”

"You...... What did you just say? ”

Bella felt a little hot in her body.

"There is a man who asks me to take good care of you, not to trouble her again, and to try to correct your vices; This man was my benefactor, so I agreed. ”

The red-haired maid hugged her, not knowing what movement she had made.

Bella's body spasmed, she covered her mouth tightly, her face turned red, and she obediently ran east in her arms.

"――――――Boom!!"

It was at this time. Suddenly there was a dull loud bang in the west.

"Lyric—"

A soldier on a horse in the water skewed uncontrollably, and the horses below him staggered rapidly. There was a frightened hiss.

"Titicaca......"

Behind him, an empty cart rattled and slid sideways, crashing into a tree on the side of the street.

"It's not thunder! Could it be an earthquake? ”

One of the soldiers next to Kevin shook his body a few times and shouted in disbelief.

Because of the violent shaking just now, many residents fell to the ground. Bedding and household utensils were scattered all over the floor.

Women and children cried in the rain, while men desperately protected their families and dragged them from the ground.

But many people had just stood up, and again there was a loud noise from the west, this time even more violently. Even some of the soldiers were unsteady on their feet and fell into the water.

"Heavy rain and earthquakes...... Now it's a problem. ”

The old general looked at the rain that had already reached his waist and whispered.

"Activate the Magic Prism!"

He turned to a magician and ordered.

Not long after, several bright lights emitted from the magic towers around the fortress, and a salvo of them hit a huge prism in the center of the city, converging into a pillar of azure light that shimmered with a little fluorescence, reflected in the rain.

The pillar of light slowly moved eastward under the spells of several magicians on duty, and after docking with a circular arch, a passage of light appeared above the street, and countless residents rushed towards the arch under the guidance of the soldiers.

After entering the archway, the people carefully stepped into the blue passageway, looking around and moving forward, their faces showing curiosity and amazement.

"Praise General Kevin!"

A man shouted with joy, followed by a loud sneeze.

There was no rain or tremors, only slightly moist air blowing from both ends of the passage, and they shivered.

"Don't talk, hurry up! There are still a lot of people waiting in the back. ”

The soldiers urged the first residents to enter the passage, telling them to quicken their pace.

"This is something used to escape during the war, and it costs hundreds of magic crystals to launch it once, but it was used up because of a heavy rain."

Kevin sighed as he looked at the pillar of blue light.

"Fortunately, our princess has left a lot of money, otherwise this month will be tense again."

Even though this was the case, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"What sound?"

A magician, barely flying in the air, turned his head to look at the mountain peaks to the west.

It is a long, tooth-souring sound that is suddenly high-pitched and sometimes low in the ear; It was like piercing a crack in a rock with sharp metal, and then cutting and rubbing against the hard surface, with a terrifying tearing sound in between. It makes people shudder to hear.

"What's going on?"

"At this time, there are still people mining rocks in the mountains?"

Only a few soldiers and General Kevin himself remained in the city, and the streets were untenable, and they were completely turned into a sea of people, and everyone climbed up to the rooftops on both sides, and all heard this strange noise.

Kevin stood in the rain and closed his eyes.

On his legs. The white wolf made a pounce stance, and looked at the top of the hill with bared teeth, as if there was a terrible enemy in sight, and it felt deep fear.

"Not good!"

Kevin closed his eyes and listened for a while, then suddenly opened his eyes and shouted:

"Retreat! Get out of here! Everyone, retreat! ”

He reached out and grabbed one of his own soldiers, threw him at the house across the street, and shouted at the magician and the soldiers:

"Mage help the soldiers who don't know how to fly over, throw away their armor and weapons, and hurry up to the other side!"

"Cangchang."

He drew his greatsword behind his back. A silvery-white glow suddenly appeared on his body.

"The general actually used fighting spirit?"

The soldiers who knew Kevin well looked at him in horror:

Since the battle ten years ago, no one has ever seen the old general show this appearance, not only took out the treasured love sword, but also burst out with the silver dragon fighting spirit that has not been used for many years, what happened?

"Want to disobey? Walk! ”

Kevin snapped.

The soldiers did not hesitate any longer, and the swimmers took off their armor and coats and jumped into the water, which was now fast, but there were no whirlpools or dangers. So these people quickly swam to the other side.

The flying magicians grabbed a few soldiers who couldn't swim and helped them fly. Soon, only the old general was left in this flooded neighborhood.

At this moment, an amazing scene appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

The cliff that had been standing on the west side of the fortress suddenly shuddered.

Then the top of the cliff began to slowly separate from the mountain and slide downward.

The sound of the boulder sliding down drowned out the roaring thunder, and the earth and gravel were crushed and scattered in the air by irresistible force, mixed with the torrential rain and smashed into the houses below, smashing countless buildings in an instant.

"Bang!"

Kevin swung his sword and slashed through a piece of rubble that flew above his head. Watching the mountain, which was the size of a third of a fortress, fall from the sky, he closed his eyes weakly.

The house under his feet was shattered by the mountain peaks that crashed into the city, and his body was swept away by the huge wave of air, and he crashed backwards into a tree and fell into the water.

"Whoa!"

The old general jumped out of the water with a great sword. Coughing violently, he came to a half-collapsed clock tower and stood there gasping for breath.

"General—!"

The soldiers watched from a distance worriedly, and it took a long time for them to realize what had just happened.

"Hey, look! What is that! ”

A soldier with a telescope shouted pointing to the mountainside.

Kevin also seemed to feel something strange, supporting his body with his big sword, slowly raising his head and looking towards the middle of the mountain.

A deep hole appeared out of thin air on the originally smooth and steep mountain, revealing a trace of black gas from the inside.

Unaffected by the rainstorm, the black gas diffused outwards as if it had no substance, and finally dispersed into the air.

As a gloomy aura penetrated into his mind, the old general's spirit became in a trance.

His soul seemed to come out of his body at this moment, and he staggered upward, and there seemed to be a suction force in the black hole, dragging him towards the hole.

He couldn't see anything, only felt himself speeding through the mountains, his body flying through countless rocks and dirt all the way to the depths of the cavern.

Then the drag slowed down and stopped in a dimly lit place.

"Sado......"

There was a whisper in my ears.

The sound seems to come from the front, and it seems to come from behind.

"Sado...... Sado...... Sado—"

The whisper grew louder, filled with resentment and hatred, coming at him from all directions.

Kevin desperately tried to open his eyes, but his eyelids were heavy, and he used his strong will to squeeze a slit open and look ahead.

A flickering black shadow appeared in his vision, and he couldn't see anything clearly in the darkness, but he could feel a creepy resentment in it.

Just as he was terrified, a huge spear suddenly rose from the shadows and pointed it at his eye.

"Oh, oh, oh, ――――――!!"

Kevin shuddered at the tip of the cold spear, and the soul that had floated out suddenly returned to his body, and he let out an irrepressible cry of horror in his throat.

"Black Calamity!!"

As if something had in mind, Kevin turned around abruptly and shouted at the people west of the city with all his strength:

"Withdraw! Evacuate! Evacuate everyone out of the fortress! Remember, it's everyone! (To be continued......)
