Lehat VII was meeting with Miotov, president of the Syatos Chamber of Commerce, to discuss the possibility of transporting refugees by sea for evacuation.

At this time, Pushkin walked in briskly from the outside, he did not report in advance, almost broke in, it is difficult to imagine that such an impolite thing could happen to an imperial prime minister.

At this moment, Miotov was keenly aware that something big might have happened.

Pushkin didn't even bother Miotov, who was still sitting on the other side, and handed a small note to Lehart VII, who looked surprised.

The president of the Ciatos Chamber of Commerce noticed the brown blood stains that had solidified on the small note.

His Majesty the Emperor opened it and only glanced at it, and his body shook and almost fell to the ground.

Pushkin stepped forward and grabbed Lehart VII and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, please pay your respects." ”

But in a short moment, Lehat VII seemed to have aged ten years again, and if Miotov felt like he was in the same room with a lion king, now he was only an ordinary old man in front of him.

Lehart VII didn't even have the courage to finish the little note in his hand.

Pushkin attached to the ears of His Majesty the Emperor, and Miotov could only hear a few words in tapto, "...... Only...... Survivor...... Two months later...... The royal capital ...... On the side of the church...... Temporarily...... No....... ”

After all, Lehart VII was the supreme ruler of the empire, and after a brief gaffe, he quickly regained his prestige, and the lion king straightened up again, looking around his territory, and everywhere he looked, everything surrendered.

It's just that His Majesty the Emperor's eyebrows were filled with deep sadness, "Count Miotov, if you are not in a hurry to leave, stay in New Telt for a while, the things we discussed before will remain unchanged, and I am afraid that there will be more places that need your Chamber of Commerce to help in the future." ”

Miotov saluted gracefully, "I am willing to serve Your Majesty." ”

............

The president of the Ciatos Chamber of Commerce had already had a premonition that something big was coming, but he still didn't expect this matter to be so serious.

Two months later, a small group originally located in the western border of the empire arrived in New Terte.

When Shami saw the familiar high wall, the eyes that had been dead finally regained some color, thinking of the more than 100 people who walked out of the city gate together half a year ago, and now he was the only one left, and he could no longer control his emotions, jumped off the horse, hugged the root of the wall and cried.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would have been hard to imagine that a big man would cry so sadly.

Mark, the leader of the squad and the sheriff of Cullen City, couldn't bear to look at Shami's current appearance.

Cullen was the closest imperial town to the two hamlets, and before entering the mountains, the condolence group had rested there for a night, and Mark had also followed the lord of the city to visit His Royal Highness the Third Prince and the Earl of Fergil, and it was at that time that he first met Chamie, when Xiao Hu looked in high spirits from the knights, and kept complaining that the dinner was not elaborate enough, and the dancers at the dinner were not beautiful enough, and shouted that Olkins had better not disappoint, but Mark did not expect to see the latter again after only twelve days.

It's just that when they meet again, Shami has completely changed into a different picture.

The knight stood beneath the city of Cullen in despair, covered in mud and blood, barely able to see the original color of his skin, and one of his calves bent at an incredible angle, God knows how he dragged such a body back.

When they first saw him, the guards in the city thought it was some kind of human monster and almost shot him with a bow and arrow, but in the end, Mark, who had a relationship, recognized him and hurriedly asked people to open the city gates.

And Hu walked from the knight to this place as if he had exhausted all his strength, and he only had time to spit out a spot from his mouth before falling to the ground.

At this time, the sheriff had already realized that something was wrong, Shami was Williams's henchman, regardless of his strength, but the relationship between the two was extremely close, and it stands to reason that it was almost impossible to separate.

And when Mark ordered his men and hurried to the place that Shami said, a cold air instantly rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and the cruelty of the vision was completely beyond his imagination.

Mark swore he had never seen such a terrible encounter in his life.

In front of a broken rope bridge, the corpses of people and monsters were almost piled up in that small area, and there was no reason to talk about the battle in the end, only the most primitive entanglement and biting remained, and the corpses were tightly packed together, whether it was the monster's or the knights of the First Royal Order, they could no longer distinguish each other.

At the center of the battlefield, His Royal Highness the Third Prince wields twin swords, the Lehhardt's signature blonde hair fluttering like a proud lion, he slashes the neck of a sheep's head crocodile, and the other sword cuts open the belly of a hellish porcupine, but his own heart is pierced through by a cunning shadow jackal's claw.

The latter is the best assassin in the Abyss, possessing extremely good explosive power and stealth skills.

However, the valuable knight's armor also helped Williams buy the last trace of time.

His Royal Highness the Third Prince did not retreat at the last moment of his life, but only poked one of the long swords out from under his armpit.

The two hit each other together almost at the same time.

The shadow jackal stabbed Williams through the heart, and the last sword of His Royal Highness the Third Prince also slit the throat of the former.

In the end, there was no winner.

............

Compared with what Mark saw with his own eyes, the story that Chamie told to Lehart VII and others that afternoon was undoubtedly much shorter, but it was still more thrilling.

Realizing that the more than 700 Imperial civilians in another village were likely to be in immediate danger, Williams immediately led eighty-six knights to rush there, and they almost arrived at the rope bridge with the group of monsters.

Neither side was prepared for each other, and the battle broke out without warning.

The knights have the advantage in numbers, but the monsters are undoubtedly higher in rank, and they are born with a low-level coercion, which is almost negligible for professionals, but it is very effective for animals such as horses.

After several knights were dragged off a cliff by frightened horses, or rushed straight into the monster pile, the knights of the First Royal Order had to abandon their horses and fight in the form of infantry, and the battle began to develop in the direction of the meat grinder.

Just when the situation was becoming more and more unfavorable for the human side, Count Virgil and his party, who were supposed to go to Orkens to deliver the news, miraculously appeared on the battlefield.

The Earl was armed with a silver Mithril war hammer, like a tiger descending the mountain, and the monsters were overturned by the hammer men in each passing place, and Virgil led the remaining eighteen knights to join Williams's men, and in order to prevent any monsters from running into the village behind, they simply destroyed the rope bridge and fought each other to the death in the open space at the head of the bridge.

Monsters from the abyss appear in the mountains with blood and death, and they are greeted by humanity's unparalleled courage.

In the end, except for Xia Mi, who was in a coma halfway, escaped death, including the six spies who were lost before, all 111 people of the condolence group were buried here.

And the small village behind them was unharmed.
