Before Zion's forces entered Arthas, Arthas was nervously and orderly trying to evacuate its inhabitants. However, apart from the city of Seresta, there are only a few small villages in the whole of Alsace, and the places where they can take refuge are actually the mountains and forests, and a few of them have entered the temple - like most other worlds, this is still the world of the church, the difference is that the gods of faith are different.

However, let alone the duke's son, even the duke himself did not dare to do anything to the temple, and it was best to take refuge. But unfortunately, a temple can't accommodate many people.

"Is it really necessary to let them take refuge? It's only 3,000 people, so why don't you let me fly over and destroy them? ”

Draiger looked at the inhabitants who had entered the woods in an orderly manner under the guidance of a few native Alsace soldiers, and was very puzzled. It stands to reason that Iskander, who gave this order, also has the strength to destroy those three thousand people, how could he give such an order?

"We can protect them, yes, but it's not a good thing that our subjects don't have a sense of crisis – it kills their creativity."

In this regard, Drager shook his head and said that he didn't understand: "It's really troublesome, do you human kings always think so much?" ”

Hearing this, Iskandar's face softened suddenly, and he scratched his cheek with his index finger and laughed embarrassedly: "Is it? This is a habit in my life, but it's not that I boast, among the kings, I think less of the kind, basically do whatever comes to mind. ”

"Sure enough, I didn't boast," Nero walked up and said, "But what you just said is a bit wrong, the enemy is not only three thousand, but also two dragons. ”

At this time, Lixia. Mao came out of the shadows, and it was she who probed the enemy's detailed information. It's not a coincidence. None of the people Wu Jian brought over were good at magic, and it was still up to her as an assassin to find out the news.

Although it doesn't matter if you don't know the enemy's intelligence for the lineup on Arthas's side, the kings are obviously planning to play a realistic battle.

"There are dragons? Isn't that just right? Let me see what the dragons of this world are capable of! ”

Draiger was very energetic, but he was held back by Iskander. It's rare to have fun, how can he give it to others?

"Forget it. It's not fun to blow it up in the first place. It's better to wait for the other party to send a dragon and you can play again, right, isn't this country very underestimating archers? Why don't you say it? ”

Iskandar looked at the Valhalla, who was sitting in the corner and quietly in front of a beautiful man.

"I don't care, isn't it normal to look down on archers? If you only know how to shoot arrows, you won't be able to cross many battlefields. ”

"Eh" Iskandar was dumbfounded: "Of course the archers have to cooperate with other troops." Who is like you who always brush alone? And, basically, you're always thinking about melee combat with other people. ”

"Heh, Iskandar, you're pretty good at using these modern words." Valhalla said sarcastically.

Iskandar didn't care, and grinned: "Because modern games and the like, it's quite interesting." ”

Ha

Artoria sighed. The inhabitants of Arthas were in a state of unease, and they were still joking with each other - although she knew that the inhabitants of Alsace would be fine, she was uncomfortable at the thought that those people were facing the fear of not seeing a future in sight.

At this time, Arubian walked up to her and said, "Although I don't know how to run the country, I think Iskander is right and that a proper sense of crisis is useful for them. ”

Artoria nodded. It is precisely because she knows this that she does not object to this opinion of Iskandar. But. The inhabitants of the area, who should have avoided this riot, suffered this time because of the careerist Duke of Tenardier, who had to teach the two dukes a lesson.

The retreat of the inhabitants of Alsace went smoothly, and under the management of the three kings (although Nero was simply in the fun), the order of Alsace was usually very good, and this time, apart from the inner uneasiness, it was basically like an evacuation drill.

Wait for Zion to lead his troops into the territory of Alsace. There was no trace of anyone in sight for a long time.

Located in the front row of the three thousand soldiers, Zion drove the wyvern majestically, but the wyvern was crawling on the ground, not to mention how aggrieved it was.

This was because Zion once flew into the sky across a wyvern, but the unexpected speed, the fierce wind, and the cold that almost cut his body apart made him completely dead. Since then. Zion only let the Wyvern go on foot.

Although he looks like a clown to the discerning eye, in this world where the dragon clan is a scarce top combat power, he is still so majestic, and the soldiers he leads are also imposing.

Behind the wyvern is an earth dragon with a body as large as a hill. The soldiers were intimidated by its size and boldness, and they kept a certain distance from the dragon in fear, but they had great confidence in the expedition. In addition to the fear of the dragon, they are probably thinking about how to vent in Alsace next.

I didn't expect it to be so difficult to get a wyvern to fly in the air. It feels too far from a horse. When you get home from this mission, practice again—Zion thought about it, and he remembered what had happened along the way.

Before coming here, Zion had only conquered the territory of two or three nobles, but they had not met any resistance. Everyone was afraid of the Tenardiye family, knowing what they were going to do, and not only did they not stop them, but they also offered a lot of things.

Although this made Zion's mood very happy, I am afraid that it could not satisfy him.

"After burning Alsace, it's not bad to go to the land of those guys on the way back and force them to sign an oath of belonging. It would be nice for them to hand over their wives and daughters as hostages, after all, there is still a battle ahead with the Duke of Gonlon. ”

At this time, Zion, who was more and more happy to think about it, heard the report brought by the returning scout, but the expression on his face gradually became unhappy. The news wasn't bad, but it wasn't at all what he expected, and it made his expression look hideous.

"You said the residents were almost gone?"

"Yes. Most people seem to have taken refuge in the nearby forests and mountains."

"What about the rest?"

"It's all gathered in the temple, where we can't make a move."

"Cut! will be clever."

Zion gritted his teeth, almost as if he was ignoring the temple and rushed straight in to implement the three-light strategy. As long as you don't leave a living mouth, don't you? Anyway, if you don't say it, no one will know when the time comes.

It's a pity that he only dares to think about it. Although this time I came as a general with troops. But he is not so bold, but he is still very afraid of death. He wasn't sure he could do it perfectly.

Seeing that he didn't respond for a long time, the adjutant asked, "What should I do?" Why don't you leave the city of Celesta behind and go to another village? ”

"No, it doesn't matter. We continue our march towards the Seresta. Hearing the mention of his subordinates, Zion shook his head: "We really can't make a move against the temple. But just destroy and burn something else. In this way, those lords will also give up hope and take the initiative to come out. ”

A cruel smile crossed Zion's face.

Apparently. Territory dwellers who come out on their own initiative will not end well.

At this time, another subordinate appeared in front of him with a report.

"A guest claiming to be an emissary of Ceresta asks to see Lord Zion."

"Messenger? What kind of people are they? ”

"There were two of them, both young men."

As soon as he heard this, Zion, who had lost interest, ruthlessly declared, "Kill it." Dump the corpse in the city. ”

In this way, the two who don't know where they came from became the first victims of the Alsace people.

However, neither Zion nor his army noticed. The two people they had killed jumped up as soon as they left, watching their figures slowly dissipate into the air.

In the city of Seresta. Iskandar smiled: "Hehe, don't you even want to talk?" It seems that the other party has no good intentions at all. Such. You're welcome! ”

Seresta said it was a city, but it didn't look like a city, and even the walls were not high or thick, and it looked like they were made of mud, and Zion's army easily broke through it.

In fact, the gates weren't even closed. And Zion only brought 300 of his personal guards (and two dragons by the way). The large army was left outside. After all, the first batch of people who went into the city to loot earned the most, so of course they had to bring their cronies.

"First surround the temple and make a shout that makes the people hiding inside physically and mentally exhausted. Anything else is your freedom to burn, destroy or plunder. Zion shouted to the eager soldiers, "Just don't kill too much." After all, they are all important commodities. Also, be polite to beautiful women (in fact, leave it to me). Violators will be punished with severe penalties. So. Let's go! ”

True, their purpose was not war, from the very beginning it was plunder. And it's hard for ordinary people to imagine being in the same country.

However, the Duke of Tenardier is also a person who intends to usurp the throne, and the country that does not obey him can be regarded as an enemy or even a hostile country. From this point of view, it may be understandable that he and his son are doing this, after all, they are weakening their opponents

The soldiers who had been given permission unleashed their bestial nature and carried out violence everywhere with recklessness. They stormed the houses of the residents, destroyed furniture, looted belongings and set fires everywhere.

Originally, there were also old people in this city who were inconvenient to move, but after all, this place was well governed, these old people were all arranged in the temple, and everyone else who could walk followed the large army to take refuge, so there was no untimely screaming except for the sound made by the soldiers. Although the loss of property is unavoidable, it will not be long before they have to pay it back.

"Humph! The city is so poor that it doesn't make much sense to destroy. ”

Along the way, Zion didn't see anything decent, not even the sorrow he longed for, which made him super dissatisfied.

At this time, when he left the avenue, he saw a mansion. Although it is not as good as his home, it is also luxurious for the city.

"Is that the home of Warrune? The dilapidated appearance makes it impossible to tell that it is a noble mansion. Forget it, just go in and have a look before you set the fire. ”

The corners of Zion's mouth went up, and he even left the two dragons on the side of the road for his subordinates to look after. He rode forward with five knights. Although there are fewer people, he is actually still confident in his skills. Coupled with the fact that there was no resistance all the way, he slackened

"He's coming, oh, you're just watching them wreak havoc?" Tanning asked, not knowing what to do.

"Just rebuild after that." Iskandar was unmoved, his eyes coldly looking at Zion through the window: "Perhaps, it would be a good idea to let him rebuild brick by brick with his own hands." What do you say? ”

"Well, add a lion behind him, if you move slowly, you will be eaten, who told him not to take advantage of the opportunity that Yu gave him?" Nero sat on the couch unmoved, she didn't even want to pay attention to Zion.

"Although you may say that you are villains, you must not mistreat the captives too much." Artoria said angrily, but she didn't disagree with Iskander's opinion.

"So, aren't you going to evacuate?"

The maid Tita looked at the crowd in a panic, but she couldn't figure out that these people were facing an army of three thousand (?). Can you still talk and laugh?

"Didn't you avoid it?" Nero asked without looking back.

"Because," Tita lowered her head slightly, then raised her head and said firmly, "I will wait here for the young master to return." ”

There aren't many reasons for that. She was just going to wait at home for her master's return—but she also had a black bow in her hand, which was the heirloom of the family.

"You're brave." Lixia patted Tita on the shoulder, looked out the window and said, "Guys, shouldn't we do it too?" You can't let this home be destroyed, right? ”

"Hehe, don't worry, didn't you notice that there was one person missing here?" Iskandar pointed to the top of his head and said, "I don't care, it seems that I still want to correct the name of the archers." ”

Then. Two arrows were nailed in front of Zion, who was riding his horse. One of the horses was frightened, and the two front hooves were raised high. However, Zion is also qualified as a knight. Immediately stabilized the beloved horse.

"Oh?"

As soon as he looked up, Zion saw an archer dressed in red standing on the roof of the mansion, pointing menacingly with his bow at the moment.

"Worun is not right, that waste is still being taken prisoner, is it the guard here? Trying to stop me with just a bow? It's funny you guys keep up! ”

Seeing that there was only one person on the other side, Zion immediately put on a mask and put on his shield. As soon as his feet clamped the horse's belly, he took the lead in rushing over.

"Stupid. It doesn't matter what you want about this house, but even I can't look at the wanton behavior of this city. ”

The Valhalla Palace shot the arrow in his hand, and seeing his action, Zion tugged at the corners of his mouth. The armor on his body was made of heavy gold. Not to mention arrows, even swords made by famous craftsmen can't cut them. Not to mention the shield in his hand that could cover the heads of warhorses and knights, and the arrows alone would not even leave scratches.

"Stupid—"

Boom!

As soon as he finished saying a word, Zion flew up in a strong force, and before he could understand it, he fell to the ground and rolled several times, and the shield in his hand flew into a patch of grass, and an arrow was firmly inserted into the shield. This is still because of the ordinary arrows projected by the Valhalla Palace, otherwise his whole person would have been pierced with a big hole.

Zion, who was just dizzy because of his armor, managed to hold up his body, but heard a few screams. Looking up, he saw that several of the soldiers he had brought with him were screaming and being nailed to the ground by arrows - limbs.

"W-What!?"

Those soldiers were also wearing armor, and they were pinned down by arrows that he looked down on? Afraid that he would be like this, Zion hurriedly got up to face the Valhalla, instinctively wanting to raise the shield, but found that it had flown to the side. I wanted to go over and pick it up, but I aimed at the person on the opposite side and already shot the second (?) Arrows - this is of course the Valhalla Palace deliberately let him see.

"Ahh!?h

Zion hurriedly covered his face with his hands, but he was a step too late, only to hear a "click~", his mask was shattered by a small half, and the other half flew out with the impact.

"Ahh

Zion's eyes widened, his mouth wide open in shock, and he made unconscious noises one by one.

After a long time, he felt a burst of heat coming from his face, and reached out to touch it. No, it doesn't feel right, why are his ears missing!?

After carefully confirming the feel, a sharp pain hit, he hurriedly let go of his hand, and when he looked at it, his hand was bright red.

He—He's hurt!?

Growing so big, except when he was a child wrestling and training, he had never been injured, and he could be injured in this remote countryside!?

A wave of anger hit his head, and Zion glared at Valhalla, but the cold light on him immediately made him fall into the snow.

The archer on the other side was no ordinary archer, not only did he roll off his horse with a single arrow, but even his armor was easily torn apart. In front of such an archer, he was no different from being naked.

However, it has never been heard of archers with such power.

This、This is

"Strange, monster~~~~"

At the sight of life-threatening arrows, Zion collapsed, leaving his back to Valhalla and stumbling back the way he came. (To be continued......)
