Chapter 179: Pierce Them!
readx;? The prince also died quietly, and no one knew the news. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Because his corpse turned into a puddle of black water after the assassin left, disappearing between heaven and earth.
This is not a good thing, the earl and the prince, the two people of the south, died together, and in this way, the power vacuum of the south will reach an unprecedented height.
At that time, chaos, seizure of power, bloody struggle, etc., I am afraid that they will only be sprinkled with water.
What I am most afraid of is that when the whole southern territory is in turmoil, and a large number of attention has attracted the attention of the royal capital of the Akia Empire, will it fall for the conspiracy of the Dark Church.
This is the best opportunity for some forces that are secretly stirring!
At this time, the castle of Akmund was besieged, and the remaining family guards were barely able to maintain the castle with its strong walls and powerful magical barriers. But the surrounding area was already occupied by the enemy, and there was an encirclement like iron barrels on all sides, and the people in the castle were almost desperate.
In the early battle, Akmund's house, which was caught off guard, was attacked. The outposts and strongholds around the castle had been uprooted by the overwhelmingly superior coalition forces, and now the outside was scorched. If it weren't for a veteran who fired a flare before he died, it is estimated that Akmund Castle would have fallen by now, and the count's family in the castle would have been reduced to slavery.
In the middle of the castle, in the count's residence, this is the hall used by the count's family to discuss matters, and here are all the remaining high-ranking officials of the count's family.
They had gathered here to discuss a countermeasure, and they were all absolutely loyal to the Akmund family, because no matter how much they calculated, they could not have calculated that Count Akmund would die by this time today, so they did not buy one or two people to do the internal response.
By the way, although the Akmund family has many enemies, if the earl has a designated heir before his death, there is no reason for these people to come and take advantage of the fire. The problem is that Count Akmund is in high spirits and feels very young. Not only did he not have children, but he didn't even have a younger brother. In this way, if there is no legal successor, someone must appoint one to inherit. It's just that the earl didn't specify it before he died, so this gave the enemy the opportunity to take advantage of the fire to rob. If the Akmund family can be wiped out in this gap, then the title of Count will be vacant.
"Madame, let us take you out!" said a knight in the hall as he bent down to the graceful lady in front of him.
Although the lady's eyes were full of sadness, she still maintained complete rationality and composure on the surface. This is a habit that has been cultivated in aristocratic life for a long time, and she knows that at this time, if she is the supreme leader first, the people below will naturally be in chaos.
Therefore, she can't run away.
Once she escaped, the Akmund family would never survive again.
"No!" Madame sternly refused the knight's request.
"Why!" the knight was unwilling, "Madam, as long as we work together, we will definitely be able to escort you out! Although there are many enemies outside, they are just a school of miscellaneous fish, and we can penetrate no matter how we fight!"
Indeed, although the number of enemies besieging the castle outside is unusual, but it is only a large number, and compared to the elite knights who remain in the castle, there is actually not much comparison. It would have been crushed by one-on-one, but now the enemy is besieging the castle with an army of nearly thirty to one, and once the barrier disappears, it will definitely be breached.
When the time comes, there will be no survivors here.
"I can't go, there's my family here. ”
"But!" the knight was still unwilling.
"Nothing but. Madame waved her right hand and motioned for the knight to leave. "I will definitely stay here until the last moment! I will not give up on my family, my friends, my dear subordinates, and my family. ”
She opened her mind: "I am with you!"
"Defend Akmund to the death!" the knights in the hall knelt down on one knee and swore their allegiance to the Lady.
After boosting everyone's morale, Madame turned and left. As soon as he arrived backstage, the butler immediately stepped forward to help the lady up.
Fortunately, there was the butler's support, otherwise just now, Mrs. suddenly weakened her feet and almost fell to the ground.
As a young countess. Before today, her life was definitely very envious, jealous and hateful. But today, it seems that all the pleasures of the previous time have also been turned into retribution and returned. When the Earl went out today, she didn't feel right, they all said that women's intuition was accurate, and no one expected it to be like this!
Neither the elite troops brought out nor the Count himself returned, but it was the coalition of large and small forces in the city that returned!
Fortunately, they have their own evil intentions in their hearts, and they have always refused to let their troops do their best in the battle, otherwise, I am afraid that no matter how strong the barrier of this castle is, it will not be able to withstand the enemy's concentrated fire attack once or twice.
They are afraid that a counterattack from inside the castle will cost them dearly, which will affect the share of the forces they represent when it comes to the final cut of the cake.
At this critical moment, outside the besieged castle, Lopez and his party finally hurried here.
Lopez stood still, feeling out of breath from the long run, sweat the size of a bean falling down his cheeks. They ran almost twenty kilometers in less than ten minutes. At such a distance, even the sixth-order paladin Ramijes was already tired of being a dog. Not to mention Lopez, a weak chicken in every sense of the word.
"I'm going, and it's finally here. Lopez leaned against the trees, gasping for air.
"Looks like things aren't going well," Ramijes said distressedly.
Yes, indeed, even if they came to help. But the scene in front of me is really scary.
That's as many people as Ilonier had ever seen before
Lopez glanced at it, then swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "How can we get in like this, there are too many people." ”
"Hmm," Anne thought for a moment, "yes, that's fine." ”
"Huh, how?"
"I'll cast a spell to silence them all, and then we'll rush together and knock them through! ”
"Yes. The crowd agreed. To be continued.
