Chapter 249: Departure
The fierce battles in the courtyard of the royal palace soon attracted a large number of characters and soldiers. However, when they came to www.biquge.info the ruins, they could only see the broken body of the legendary mage Penny and the head of the Regent.
The frightened courtiers searched for a long time in the ruins, but found no trace of the old king and the little prince, but found Princess Lanya, who was trembling in the corner and couldn't even speak clearly.
That night, all the ministers were awakened from their slumber and gathered in the palace hall to begin a battle that lasted all night. They both acquiesced in the death of the old king and the little prince, and began to split into two factions, supporting Princess Lanya and her sister Thea to become queens of the kingdom of Oxley, respectively.
A frightened Lanya was held in her arms by the dignified and beautiful Xiya, who watched indifferently as the ministers were making a fuss.
Thea wanted to blame these people loudly, not looking for the king and prince, but fighting for power here. But she chose to be silent, and before that, she was just a quiet girl who didn't care about politics, and she didn't have any rights now.
The controversy continued into the morning, and none of the ministers reached a consensus.
Just when the ministers were a little exhausted, one of the guards hurried up and shouted back: Your Majesty has arrived!
Later, the old king and Prince Kenny, escorted by Duke Haydn, Lancelot, and Caron, entered the palace hall.
Looking at these ministers, who were in a sluggish spirit, with a sloppy image, and even scratches on their faces, the old king sighed, and then fainted to the ground.
The old king was soon rescued by the court priest, but he was already disheartened and immediately proclaimed the throne to Prince Kenny, with Duke Haydn as regent and Lancelot in charge.
As the kingdom of Ocas Ray moved from turmoil to a smooth change of power, Edward was sitting on the bed, letting Ania feed him, while Hayley leaned against the wall by the window, looking at Edward with a smile.
Penny's fireball was so powerful that Edward had great fire resistance and recovery abilities, but it took him several days to recover. At the same time, he again turned bald......
"How many times have I said it, Aniah, I'm healed now. Edward said helplessly.
"I've said it many times, don't risk your life, how do you do that?" Annia said with a pretty roll of her eyes, "In that case, you could have returned with Caron and Lancelot, why would you have to go and kill that crazy old woman?"
"What's wrong with that? What danger does this crazy woman pose? If I don't kill him, will I watch her kill all the people in the palace?" asked Edward, puzzled.
"You ......" Annia sighed, unable to argue. She certainly valued Edward's kindness, but sometimes she didn't want him to hurt herself for the sake of others. This ambivalence often makes her feel entangled.
"Hehe, this is my Edward. Hayley laughed, "What are we going to do next?" Okasley is about to enter a state of war, and this environment is not conducive to our adventure. ”
Edward sat up from the bed, his bare body back to his original state, allowing both women to spit at the same time.
"Let's get out of here with the people of Little Lake Fort. Edward said as he put on his clothes, "We can find a piece of no-man's land at the junction of the Orc Empire and the Okasley Kingdom to seek development. ”
"General Lancelot is my lifesaver after all, this kind of kindness cannot be repaid by helping him once or twice, if we are strong enough, I hope to be able to help him in due time. ”
"I agree. Annia agreed, "It's better for us to have a stable rear and not be swayed by any forces. When we are strong enough, we can intervene in the disputes of other forces in our plane. ”
"And, in fact, we don't have very high requirements for territory. Annia continued, "The Demon Hunter has most of the foundation, and we just need to find a suitable place to farm to provide food support for the Demon Hunter. ”
"As for the population, we can extradite from other planes. I'm sure a lot of people would be willing to live aboard the Witcher. ”
Edward and Hayley nodded in agreement. The appearance of the Demon Hunter has indeed given them great convenience, if it were not for the fact that the Void Ship made of metal could not grow food crops on a large scale, they would even be able to live there permanently, and provide assistance to all forces on the ground at any time.
The world of Thor is only a sub-plane in the cluster of native planes, and the technology here simply cannot create such a large flying machine, even if there is a threat from the sky, as long as the Demon Hunter does not show up, it will not be able to detect it.
With the Demon Hunter in possession, Edward and his companions do not need to remain in the kingdom of Oxray and be controlled by the kings and nobles here.
When Edward told Legolas and Millhouse about his intentions, the two men who longed for freedom and could not be inhibited agreed.
So, by the time Prince Kenny arrives at Fort Little Lake that night, accompanied by Lancelot and Caron, it has once again become an empty city. Lancelot searched all the corners of the castle and found only one letter left by Edward.
"I knew you wouldn't want to stay here. Lancelot looked at the sky with feeling, "Edward, I hope you still have my presence in your heart, I really want you to be my child." ”
"That guy is gone?" Karon spat viciously on the ground, "I also think of him as a brother, he actually became a deserter before the war, don't let me see him next time!"
"He didn't belong to us Okasray in the first place. "He has his own mission and aspirations, and we should not hinder him and bind him to this small country." ”
The old general raised the letter in his hand and said: "At least he has not forgotten us, he said that he will help us in the moment of crisis in Austria, and he needs to strengthen his space and time." ”
"General Lancelot, are we still a small country in Okasre?" asked Prince Kenny, if not King Kenny now, disappointed.
"Yes, it's small. Lancelot smiled reluctantly, and left Fort Little Lake with his troops.
In the sky, Edward stood on the command platform of the Demon Hunter, looking at the departing Lancelot with a magical image, his face also heavy. The old general, a loyal, kind, and upright old man, had seen his father's shadow in him more than once, and he would be more than willing to stay in Okasray if conditions permitted.
"Goodbye, my general. Edward muttered, "I think we'll see each other again." When the time comes, I will guarantee that no evil will erode your homeland!" )
