Chapter 497: Still?

"Wait...... That's what you were given the order from above?"

Inside the tent, Benjamin took a deep breath and couldn't help but ask.

This was his reaction to the general in front of him.

This morning, they set out with the king from the town of Kerr, and they arrived at the nearest camp that afternoon. They still managed to infiltrate the tent by digging tunnels, but fortunately, this time the general they encountered was not as unreasonable as Lester.

In fact, after the king came forward, the general quickly recognized the king's identity.

"Sure enough, I felt that something was wrong with the order from Glori. Now that I finally see Your Majesty, it is really a dereliction of duty on my subordinates that has reduced Your Majesty to such a point. ”

It didn't take much for the general to seem to recognize the man, get down on one knee, and say so.

The king immediately felt very comfortable.

"Well, for the sake of your early awakening, I will forgive you for the time being, get up. At last a general admitted him, and of course he had to lay out the king's score, and said slowly.

The general nodded respectfully and stood up.

Benjamin noticed another message in the general's words.

"Grory's side...... What orders have you been given?" he asked.

The general replied: "The previous performance was normal. It's just yesterday that Ikor has already come in. As soon as I finished writing my petition, a letter came from Glory's side, asking me to ...... Be sure to stand still. ”

As he spoke, he waved his fist, as if he was very unwilling.

When Benjamin heard this, he couldn't help but be a little stunned, so he had an opening conversation.

"Wait...... That's what you were given the order from above?"

Ikor's people have already hit the doorstep, and even if the church does not fight back, it even deliberately issued an official document to ask the generals in the territory to stand still and not make any resistance to Ikor's attack.

What are they thinking?

Don't forget, Ikor has a fundamentally hostile attitude towards the Church. The previous coup d'Γ©tat in Regina was also set by the queen and swept away the chess pieces of the church. If Ikorl had been brought in, the church would never have good fruit to eat.

So...... Is the church brewing something big?

Benjamin couldn't help but think deeply.

"yes, hold still. The general looked dissatisfied, "The enemy has bullied you, and you still want to stand still here? At least, the Majesty I knew before was not such a person." ”

The king was a little flustered, and chimed in, "Of course!"

The general immediately asked, "So, Your Majesty has agreed to send troops to me?"

The king nodded: "Send troops as soon as possible, the sooner the better!

The general was very excited and said, "Then Your Majesty, can you get us food for the soldiers?"

"Ah...... Rations...... This ......"

Suddenly, the king withered a little again.

The general continued: "We don't have a lot of rations in stock, and we basically supply them from the city of Stella in the north. If we were to send troops, we would have to get the support of a few granaries to the west. Your Majesty, can you make them obey your orders?"

"This ...... The ...... "The king was so distracted that he couldn't say anything."

The general could only show some disappointment.

Benjamin couldn't help but shake his head after watching all this from the sidelines.

Sending troops to fight is a complicated matter. Just like the army of Rest, although it will be under their command in a few days, if the king wants to command it, he must solve the problem of military rations and hand over all kinds of military affairs.

Benjamin didn't know how to fight either, but ...... It's common sense, okay!

However, looking at the appearance of the king, you can see that he has not given much thought to this aspect of the problem.

Brain pain.

Never mind...... He still had to think about what the church was planning, the affairs of the army made the king and the general slowly headaches.

At this moment, suddenly, a report came from outside the camp.

"General! Glori's messenger is here again!"

...... Oh?

Benjamin came back to his senses and his heart moved.

At that moment, the general's expression was also a little subtle. He first looked at the king, and then looked out and said, "Yes, please wait a moment, Mr. messenger, and I will go out to meet him at once." ”

After speaking, he turned his head and whispered to Benjamin and the others: "Your Majesty, please wait a moment, I will send him away and come back." ”

The king nodded: "You go." ”

So the general turned and left the tent, leaving Benjamin and the king standing in the tent.

The two looked at each other.

"Glory's emissary......" the king looked a little uneasy, "Could it be that Bishop Cameron found out that we are here and sent someone to arrest me?"

"Your Majesty is too worried, and he should just convey the new order to the general. Benjamin shrugged his shoulders and said, "Besides, even if it's for Your Majesty, with me here, what is Your Majesty afraid of?"

In his view, the most critical issue is the church's plan.

First, he asked the generals in the country to hold his troops still, and then turned around and sent envoys over...... What kind of medicine is being sold in this gourd? The Queen's army mixed with mages has come in, why can the bishop be so calm?

Benjamin was a little puzzled.

At this moment, he desperately hoped that Miles could investigate the inside story and use the sound transmission wood to tell him. It's a pity that at the moment the wood chips are still very quiet, like a single dog's mobile phone, and there is no new news except 10086.

"Hey, that...... The messenger from Gloria seemed to be a priest. The system suddenly reminded him.

Benjamin was stunned.

He also unfolded the water elemental perception method and sensed outward. Probably not far from the tent, he sensed the general and an envoy dressed in official clothes, who were talking something, and their expressions were not very pleasant.

And the messenger ...... As the system says, Benjamin sensed several crosses from his clothes.

Most of them are life-saving crosses, but there is one cross in the style that is different from the others.

Benjamin felt a little familiar.

I don't know if it's an illusion, that cross...... It's a bit similar to the silver cross that King Freedon had on his forehead to control life and death?

Suddenly, a not-so-good premonition came to my heart.

And outside the tent, at this moment, the conversation between the general and the "messenger" seemed to have come to an end. I saw that the general shook his head impatiently, made a gesture of sending off the guest, and turned around to leave, as if he didn't want to say anything more to the other party.

The soldiers on the side also stepped forward, ready to send the people away.

However, surrounded by several soldiers, the "messenger" had no intention of leaving, but stared at the general from behind, his eyes were a little intimidating.

His right hand crept into his pocket and grasped the special cross.
