Chapter 457: Peaceful Settlement?
"General Ivor has arrived!"
With the herald's shout, the soldiers who had been waiting behind them all turned their eyes behind them, and after seeing the man on horseback, they consciously gave way to the front.
The soldiers on guard in front heard this shout, and although they still maintained their vigilance against Su Wen and the others, their expressions couldn't help but be a little excited.
The Supreme Commander of the operation is on the scene!
This is the best way to boost morale, especially if things haven't been settled yet.
"Tsk...... Did you find out now? Regina also looked back, and then arranged for people to make room for a place, and moved to the side herself.
General Ivor sat on horseback in full suit of light armor and stepped unsmilingly towards the gate of the Earl's Court, and behind him, in addition to the familiar adjutants, there was a young officer who had little impression of the soldiers.
This officer, naturally, is Wavansen, who is in a complicated mood.
General Ivor himself also had mixed feelings, although he had a straight face and was not angry, but his heart was very worried, even more worried than the night before the original expedition.
Because the princess Regina, who "stole" the military order, was right next to the gate in front of her.
Under the gaze of so many soldiers...... How can this scene be maintained?
Ivor's thoughts were fruitless, and the horse under his crotch had already carried him to the gate of the Earl's Court. The arrival of Ivor made the soldiers in front more cautious, and the second echelon that was originally on standby also stepped forward one after another to strengthen the vigilance against Su Wen and the four people.
"Report to the General! Mission accomplished!"
Rejana stepped forward a few steps, saluted a military salute, and then held something in both hands and presented it. It's that military order!
Mission?When did I give you the task??
The corners of General Ivor's mouth twitched, and he nodded slightly as he looked at Regina, whose expression was serious and not at all like a joke. The adjutant next to him understood, and immediately walked forward, picked up the military order, and handed it to Ivor.
All this is so normal for the surrounding soldiers, only the parties concerned can understand the "catty".
Regina and Ivor tacitly completed the handover of military orders. In each other's hearts, they all sighed at each other's "upper path".
General Ivor's current attitude was expected by Regana. Although he stole the military order, he completed the task of pursuit, and at the end, he also gave Ivor a face, and in a different direction, he gave this credit to Ivor.
With Ivor's shrewdness, it is impossible to expose Regiana's behavior in such a scene. What's more, Regina still has that layer of identity there!
Although Regana's performance surprised Ivor, he was a little relieved to think that this was the genius of the once famous king city.
By the time the two of them completed the handover of military orders, Wavansen had already seen the four so-called "fugitives" standing in the courtyard of the Earl's Court with a strange expression......
Sure enough, it's Su Wen!!
Therefore, Wavansen didn't care about anything else, and before Ivor took over the scene, he came to Ivor's side and whispered, "That's Su Wen...... I think there must be some misunderstanding in this......"
Although Wavansen wanted to go up and explain and calm down the situation, Wavansen still did not dare to act rashly under the condition of not knowing the current situation.
In his understanding, Su Wen was not a person who would cause such a big trouble, but the facts in front of him made his concept a little shaken.
And Regina, after Wavanson's whispering to Ivor ended, told Ivor the current situation in extremely concise and clear sentences.
"It's indeed a bit like Su Wen's style of acting......"
"So, Prince Wavansen. Do you have any suggestions now?"
Ivor asked a very clever question, and if it were a normal Wavanson, he might have to think carefully about the pros and cons before answering. However, when the target of the hunt was Su Wen, Wavansen almost didn't think about it, and replied: "Of course, the misunderstanding is cleared up first......
"Okay, then I'll leave it to you!"
...... Huh?
Wavansen was stunned on the spot, this decision of Ivor was not a little too arbitrary? But after a little thought, Wavansen also figured out the joints, so he didn't waste any more time, and after answering Ivor, he dismounted and walked forward.
"You guys go back a bit, and I'll solve the problem......"
Wavansen immediately asked the soldiers who were about to arrest the four to retreat, and he walked into the gate of the Earl's Court alone.
Since it was the order of the officers beside General Ivor, these soldiers also took a few steps back cooperatively, and no one asked why. Soldiers, and there is no need to ask why.
Some of the soldiers also recognized that this young officer was the Seventh Prince, Wavansen, who had performed extremely well in the past few months.
"Su Wen, look, it's Wavansen!" Ellie walked up to Su Wen, pointed to the door, and said.
"Hu ......" Seeing Wavansen's arrival, Su Wen breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably.
It can also be seen from the expression on Wavansen's face that he is also nervous, and the pressure from the soldiers will not make Su Wen do anything out of the ordinary.
Fortunately, Su Wen and the others had already expressed their intention to "surrender" before Wavansen arrived, that is, Su Wen and they didn't want the situation to expand.
So Wavansen deeply believes that all this is just a misunderstanding......
The next thing to do is to solve the misunderstanding.
"Hey, Wo......!"
Ellie dropped her luggage and waved to Wavanson.
It's just that the pronunciation of Wavanson's name has just spit out a syllable, when Mia, who catches up from behind, covers her mouth and drags her back.
Although the onlookers felt a little strange, they didn't think about it carefully.
Only a few people, like General Ivor, were convinced of the previous conjecture. Wavansen, sure enough, knew these people, so according to Wavansen, if the man in front of him was really the "Professor Su Wen" who was hot in the Imperial Academy and even attracted the attention of His Majesty the Emperor, then this morning's incident was probably really an oolong......
Rejana, on the other hand, smelled something unusual, walked quickly to Wavansen's side, and whispered without moving, "Do you know them?"
Facing his sister's question, Wavansen was stunned for a moment before he nodded, and then shouted to Su Wen: "There should be some misunderstanding here, you guys, come over first?"
Misunderstanding?
The squad leaders behind him began to feel a little uneasy, but Ivor still sent his lieutenants over in time to calm the emotions of these people.
Although Regina didn't say anything more, it could be seen from her fiery eyes that she seemed to be holding back a question, wanting to ask her brother after the matter was over.
It seems that things are moving towards a "peaceful settlement......
Settle peacefully......
Among the people present, only Vera, who was standing with the family of the Earl's Court, was becoming more and more uneasy.
This...... What's going on? It's gone?
Vera's eyebrows squeezed out a few deep wrinkles. Although I don't understand what the situation is, after that general came over, the arrest that was supposed to be carried out on those "ancient demon cultists" was canceled?
And looking at their appearance, it seems that they have known each other for a long time?
So, what's the situation when you make such a big move??
Fishing, drilling, or ...... Could it be that the Earl of Oswald set up a bureau dedicated to himself!?
No wonder! No wonder he didn't panic at all when negotiating with that man! He even asked himself if he had figured out how to explain it......
So, after it's over on their side, will they do it to themselves!
Vera pressed the uneasiness in her heart as she stepped back without attracting anyone's attention. The place where the family of the Earl's Court is housed is very close to the perimeter of the encirclement, so if you want to run out, there should be no problem...... I just don't know if the blockade of the intersection has been lifted......
When Vera gradually began to act, Su Wen and his party finally came into contact with the "military of Wangcheng" for the first time. Although it is said that the representative of the military is Su Wen's "old friend" Wavansen.
Wavansen and Su Wen looked at each other, and for a while, neither of them took the lead in speaking. Because without knowing the official characterization of the incident, if you greet Wavansen first, it is likely to cause trouble for Wavansen.
"Still, let's find a place and then explain...... Brother Su Wen. ”
In the end, Wavansen spoke first, holding back such a sentence.
"What did you say???Su Wen??"
Before Su Wen could react, Regina seemed to have heard some sensational news, her expression changed in surprise, and she glanced back and forth between her brother and Su Wen in disbelief.
Rejana's reaction made both of them stunned on the spot.
Su Wen saw Ruijana strangely, and he ...... I don't seem to know this person......
Putting Regina and Wavansen together, Su Wen realized that why Ellie and Mia thought Regina was a little familiar just now.
Because it seems that the looks of these two people are very similar! In other words, these two people are sisters and brothers!
And Vera, too, finally took advantage of this opportunity to make up her mind, forcibly maintain her composure, and turned around and left. In this case, if you use a runner, you will definitely attract the attention of those soldiers, and if you walk, you may be able to get mixed up......
Thankfully, the soldiers who were protecting their families didn't notice Vera's movements.
And when Su Wen and Wavanson looked at Regina strangely, trying to figure out why she reacted so much.
Suddenly, a beam of purple light rose up behind Su Wen's sky, soaring into the sky, dyeing the entire sky almost purple.
"Ouch, it's burning me!"
Ellie exclaimed, threw Yumi, who was on her shoulder, to the ground, and jumped to Su Wen's side, constantly afraid of hitting her shoulders and back.
The source point of the purple pillar of light is none other than Yumi, who has been unconscious!
All the soldiers, including Ivor and Regina, were startled by the pillar of light. They can clearly feel the powerful magic contained in this purple light!!
This kind of magic is the power of the demon hunter that has a great restraining effect on monsters!
That's why Ellie was burned by Yumi's pillar of light, and even the clothes made of outer armor burned a hole!
And the one who felt this purple pillar of light the most was Vera.
After feeling the magic that made her creep, it was almost an instinctive reaction! Vera ran away without even daring to turn her head back! Not to mention maintaining the grace and composure she had always had......
After running for dozens of meters, Vera turned her head slightly and confirmed the powerful magic behind her.
It's dangerous though...... But this magic doesn't seem to come at you......
Just as the soldiers were waiting for the order of their superiors in surprise, and even had the idea of retreating, Yumi, who was in the middle of the pillar of light, suddenly opened his eyes.
"!!! over there"
Yumi floated in the air with this purple light, and with a solemn expression, he pointed due east.
As Yumi pointed, everyone looked in that direction.
In the originally peaceful eastern rich area, a huge gray figure rose from the ground and spread out its four thick arms! A few seconds later, a terrifying and terrible roar shocked the hearts of the soldiers present!
Everyone, a little chilled.
But then, dozens of thin lines that shimmered with silver light also burst out from the ground in the distance, changing dozens of directions in the air, stabbing at the giant!
"Valkyrie Shireen!?" Rijana blurted out.
"What did you say??"
Su Wen suddenly looked at Ruijiana, and his eyes showed the same shock as Ruijana when she heard Su Wen's name!
