Chapter 178: Prologue to the Decisive Battle (I)

Walking through the corridors of the castle, Shilinya could hear the screams of the sick everywhere, and although the soldiers who had been injured in the war had been treated, the pain on their bodies was constantly shaking their determination.

Along the way, Shilinya looked out of the window as the damage caused by the war was slowly being repaired. And because of the addition of reinforcements and the victory of the defensive war, the originally low morale was high, and if it wasn't for witnessing the retreat of the undead army, Shilinya would have thought that they were celebrating the total annihilation of the enemy. This is a good thing, and Shilinya doesn't want to complain about anything, because the current situation makes her feel at ease and sweep away the haze of many days.

But she wasn't in the mood to watch what was happening in front of her, and she didn't have time to participate in their revelry. She had an even more important task to deal with, she had to tell Christina everything she had seen in her dreams, the strange and disgusting woman she was the only one who could find a way to deal with Islevi. Shilinya hopes that her information will allow her to heal Kayla better.

Moreover, since Christina's sect appeared, Gilly, who had become a vegetative being, was also transferred to the hands of some of their professionals, and Shilinya hoped that the other party could find a breakthrough from Gilly.

"Ms. Shilinya, let's toast to victory. As Shilinya was hurrying forward, the owner of a bold voice stopped Shilinya.

Standing in front of Shilinya was an aristocratic young man of her age, dressed in the gorgeous plate armor that nobles liked, and there was still fresh but unclean blood on the plate, and the heavy smell of blood poured into Shilinya's nostrils without concealment.

This is a warrior who fought hard last night, Shilinya did not refuse the other party's kindness, after all, everyone is a comrade-in-arms who has fought side by side, and she is embarrassed to refuse in the face of the other party's invitation.

"Thank you, a toast to victory!" Shilinya drank it all after the other party put the wine in front of her, and before she knew it, Shilinya had come to the restaurant of the castle, and all the people sitting here were looking at Shilinya's body at this time, which made Shilinya feel very uncomfortable.

When the drink fell completely into her mouth, Shilinya realized that something was wrong. Since the young man in front of him spoke, the noisy voices present were silent, and they all looked at the two people present with meaningful eyes.

"In Lower Valois and King of Burgundy, Philip Capet. It was a great pleasure to meet Ms. Shilinya. The young man in front of Shilinya gracefully stroked his chest and bowed.

"It is a pleasure to meet you, Your Majesty. Shilinya was not panicked in the face of the turning point, she was mentally prepared to deal with these reinforcements with ulterior motives. He replied with a dignified salute, "Your Majesty, I beg your pardon, I still have important work to do, and we will meet next time if we can." ”

Shilinya thinks that as long as the other party has a little basic cultivation, she will agree to her request. But she felt that things were not as simple as she imagined.

Because just after breakfast, Alicia cautiously told Shilinya to pay attention to the young and arrogant king, and the uninvited middle-aged king. Alicia refers to the two kings as arrogant lions and cold vipers, and she warns Shilinya to be careful when dealing with them.

"I have some things to discuss with Ms. Shilinya. Shilinya's fears eventually happened, and Philip ignored Shilinya's words, placing his wine glass on the table and glancing at his men who were eating in the dining room.

"I don't know, Your Majesty, what's the matter?" Shilinya kept smiling, she saw some of the surrounding diners watching the two people interacting in place, as if they were very concerned about what was going on, and some walked out of the door of the restaurant, but Shilinya could still vaguely see the figures of these people who walked out.

Stand guard! Shilinya immediately judged what these people were doing when they were going out, and what was it that made them so nervous?

"I wonder what Lady Shilinya thinks of the Puppet Emperor and his men?" Philip slashed straight at the point, his tone mixed with anticipation and hostility, and he was ready to decide what his next attitude would be based on Shilinya's answer.

It turned out to be a topic of civil war. Although Shilinya had been prepared, she didn't expect that the other party would come to her to discuss this issue. Now anyone with a discerning eye can see that she is just an insignificant but noble person, what is she looking for herself?

She didn't answer the question right away, she observed her surroundings, Philip and his men were armed, and they didn't put their weapons down during the meal, and they seemed ready to go to war here. Are they afraid that the soldiers of the north will secretly attack them?

"He was an emperor, and his warriors showed devotion to the gods on the battlefield. Shilinya replied with polite words, and she observed the mood changes of the young man in front of her.

However, she was disappointed to find that the other party had always maintained this seemingly friendly but ready to turn his face at any time.

"I see. It was a pleasure to be able to speak with Ms. Shilinya. He nodded slightly, and expressed his gratitude with a stiff smile, "Then I won't bother Ms. Shilinya." ”

Philip politely moved out of the way and motioned for Shilinya to leave.

"Goodbye. ”

"Goodbye. ”

After the courtesy greeting, Shilinya immediately left the place, and she was very anxious about the delay here, and she had to speed up and make up for the delay.

(⊙o⊙) Oh...... Excuse me. As soon as Shilinya increased her speed, she collided with an oncoming piece of armor, but luckily it didn't hit the edges and corners of the armor, otherwise she would have hung up her color in this way.

"It's okay, Ms. Shilinya should be careful when she walks. The voice of the owner of the armor was mature and gentle, but Shilinya didn't care about this, she hurriedly responded and left quickly, she didn't want to waste any time with this unknown man who suddenly broke in, it was more important to meet Christina now.

Carl watched this reckless girl run away, and he couldn't help but think of his niece, Queen Occitania, who was the same age and reckless, and presumably the other party was also a worry for his parents.

Remembering the worrying presence, Karl had to do ideological work for Philip, a relative of the kings of both countries, or their southern army would soon become the number one public enemy of the lords of Maurice and the surrounding region.

"King of Lorraine, don't you know what you're looking for me?" Philip didn't look back at Carl as he appeared in the dining room, his tone cold and hostile.

However, compared to Philip's less lethal hostility, the hostility shown by some of the nobles present was very dangerous, and Karl could even see that some of the nobles had put their hands on their weapons at their waists. Flames erupted from their eyes, eager to burn Karl to the ground, and their bruised hands were desperate to crush Karl to ashes.

Philip didn't have to look back, he knew who these guys who reacted violently, they were Burgundian nobles, and they were just a little bit closer to becoming Karl's vassals.

"Let's talk about last night......" Karl ignored the hostility of the Burgundian nobles, and as long as they were sane, they would not act rashly.

——————————————————————

The lights are insufficient, and the fire flickers. The wails of the patients are faint and faint, and here it is more the sound of the patients' gentle breathing.

Thorn -

The neighing of whetstones and swords adds to the discord in the monotonous wails of the sick, and the uninformed might think that this will be transformed from a hospital ward into a slaughterhouse.

The medical staff of the Church of Astania who came and went automatically ignored the girl who was sharpening her knives in the medical field, knowing the identity of the other party and turning a blind eye to her inappropriate behavior. Medical personnel and combatants are not affiliated with each other, and they will follow the principle of non-disturbance with each other, except for this young girl.

The knight girl tried to restore the sharpness of the weapon that had been dulled by the battle with the undead last night, but the spirit of the girl was not focused on the blade. Her eyes stared at her own appearance reflected on the sword, and her thoughts slowly drifted into the distance, and when she touched Lady Alicia's body last night, she had many associations, and these associations filled her vague and blank memories like never before, and she thought about who she was, where she came from, where she was going, and so on.

Boom~

Suddenly, there was a sound of flame-outs behind her, and she looked back in confusion to see Christina pull the sword she used for light out of the fire, and the room that had lost the sword as a light fell into a hazy darkness.

"What are you going to do?" the girl was puzzled.

"Go out and run some errands, and if I don't come back, I'll take care of it for you." "Christina is floating on her feet and in poor spirits. The body swaying weakly from side to side seemed to fall to the ground at any moment.

"What's wrong with you?

"It's okay!" Christina pushed the girl who stepped forward to support her, and she shook her body and dragged the flame-extinguishing sword in her hand slowly towards the door.

"......" The matter was extraordinary, and the girl immediately picked up the weapon that had been put on the ground and followed.
