Chapter 527: Talks
Queen Catherine appeared to be in her thirties, but according to the bard, she was married to King Roland of Erathia in her twenties, and fought with her husband for Erathia. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 It has been at least twenty or thirty years since the rise of Erathia, and one can infer that Queen Catherine is forty or fifty years old.
And according to rumors, this queen is not just a vase, she and her husband are very famous generals, strong in force, good at conquest, two of the most famous of the many heroes of Erathia, and the object of respect and worship of the people of Erathia.
At this time when Negan's army was overwhelmed, the queen came all the way from the capital of Erathia to personally command the battle for the southern gateway of Erathia, which also showed that the queen was definitely not as simple as it seemed.
Her abundant reading gave her a very forward-looking vision, and from the moment she saw Edward, Catherine wanted to take this figure more powerful than the Holy Angel under Erathia's command. But when she heard that Edward was the king of the newly rising small kingdom in the South, Catherine changed her mind.
Now that the home continent is full of crises and wars, all races are showing signs of rising, and even large countries like Erathia are in danger of toppling. Among the countries of all races, the dungeon nation of Negan and the undead nation of Dea are the most aggressive. Most of the former's cities are located underground, where the environment is not loved by above-ground creatures, so they have no worries. The latter, on the other hand, is known for its large number of armies and the growing number of wars.
If Erathia is to continue to prosper, it must unite all the forces it can to defend against the impending invasion. Roland and Catherine did the same, and the human kingdom of Erathia and the elven kingdom of Eli have good relations, and recently signed an offensive and defensive alliance to defend against the invasion of evil forces. Negan is the culprit of the migration of the Elven Kingdom, and the reappearance of Negan's army this time has also been supported by the Elves of Eeri, and the elven reinforcements will soon arrive in Bright Moon City to participate in the war.
As for His Majesty the Holy Ondore, Catherine also attached great importance to it. The power of the small southern nation was not taken by Catherine, and any large city in Erathia had an army far more powerful than the southern city, but this Edward himself was valued by Catherine.
Years of war have taught Catherine that Negan's Air Force, made up of Hippogriffs, Poison Lion Scorpions, and top-class Black Dragons, has always been a nightmare for other nations' militaries. And the person in front of him can easily chisel through them alone, and his force is no longer in the realm of an ordinary person.
If Edward had said he was a god himself, Catherine would most likely have believed it.
The luncheon was a pleasant one, and Catherine welcomed Edward's visit to Erathia.
"Your Majesty Edward wants to bring all the borderlands of the South into the territory of Divine Ondore?" Catherine gracefully raised her glass and touched Edward from afar, "If Your Majesty Edward can help us through this difficult time, I swear that we will help Divine Ondore in any way we can." ”
"For those borderlands, we were able to figure it out on our own. Edward shook his head and said, "The real threat to our Divine Ondore comes from the Southern Barbarian Empire Krurod. Not long ago, an ogre named Jebac came to attack my Southside City with a small army, and after being defeated, he fled, and I think that Croulrod will invade the south sooner or later to pull out the nail of Southside. ”
"You want us to help you fend off Krurod," Catherine said with a frown, "Krurod was our enemy before, but it hasn't been a long time since they were in civil strife. If we send troops on our own, it is likely that we will set up an enemy again. ”
"Your Highness thinks that after the civil strife is over, the barbarian kingdom of Krurod will not invade Erathia at all?" Edward laughed, "Your Highness should know more about barbarians than I do, so I won't say more." ”
"This is a question that I need to discuss with Roland when I return to the capital. Catherine frowned slightly and thought for a moment, then sighed, "But I'm afraid there's nothing we can do." Now that we don't have to use Erathia before, Roland and I have so much to think about that we can't be as willful as we used to be. ”
Catherine spoke softly, and that tone sounded like homely to anyone's ears, and it made people feel very good.
But Edward was not disturbed by her innate intimacy, and curled the corners of his mouth and said, "That's fine, I'm here to inquire about Erathia's position." Your country only needs to be in the event of a war between us and Krurod and not take sides. ”
Catherine finally showed a look of surprise, and she looked at Edward in disbelief.
How dare a small country with only one city speak out against a vast barbarian empire, and disdain to have the support of its neighbors, but where it fears that its neighboring powers will take advantage of the fire?
Even Catherine, who had seen many high-eyed and low-handed people, thought that the king of the Holy Ondore in front of her was a little whimsical at this time.
Catherine couldn't help but laugh out loud, and then realized that she was a little rude, and hurriedly raised her glass again to apologize: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty Edward, I was rude." You can rest assured that we in Erathia would not have troubled Krurod and would not have helped them in turn. ”
"And, as a reward for your battle, I, Erathia, can enter into an alliance with Holy Ondore. ”
"Agreements don't have to be. Edward refused, "Our holy Ondore does not believe in your gods, and the agreement to swear to the true god is not binding on us. ”
As he spoke, Edward took a hand, and in Catherine's vigilant and surprised gaze, released a holy light mark, put it on the long table of the luncheon, and said: "This is my mark, Her Highness Catherine only needs to ask the magician to input mana into this mark, and you will be able to contact me, once there is a battle between Erathia and Negan's army, please notify me in time, and I will lead my troops to attack Negan's army from the south." ”
"My troops are still waiting for me in the south, and I will take my leave. ”
After Edward finished speaking, he saluted Catherine, activated the teleportation spell with one hand, and disappeared into the banquet hall.
"What an arrogant fellow, how dare the king of a small country do such a thing to his mother!" a heavily armed knight behind Catherine burst into a female voice, and she took off her covered helmet to reveal a pretty face and long wavy blond-brown hair, and exclaimed angrily, "I don't see what he is capable of except his own bravery." ”
"Don't underestimate this man, Sidis. Catherine stroked the knight's somewhat messy hair and said, "This is not a figure that can be measured by common sense. In his arrogant tone, I felt an extraordinary sense of confidence, maybe he has a backing that we don't know?" )
