Falco Empire, Imperial Capital of Otrencia, Royal Palace.

"Kochia, where is Kochia" Queen Camilla walked around like an angry beast, and beside her, trembling servants and maids stood.

They held the silver vessels in their hands, and the vessels and trays trembled as they trembled.

Camilla hadn't closed her eyes for more than seven days, her eyes were bloodshot and her whole body had become ghostly, and whenever she tried to lie down, the Crusaders would launch a fierce attack.

The ferocity of the offensive was enough to wake Camilla from her sleep and make it difficult to sleep.

Although the number of Crusaders is not large, their large number of magicians have been suppressing the royal magicians of Otrelensia to the death.

On the first day of the fierce attack, the Crusaders committed 30,000 soldiers to attack the city in a single day, and almost captured the east gate of the imperial capital, and the defenders of Otrentia were finally defeated by the famous imperial general Justine.

The city gate was almost lost on the first day, and this was not the most terrible thing, the most terrible thing was that when the cardinal began to chant the spell to perform the Great Resurrection, these warriors who had been killed rose from the ground again!

This scene almost broke the morale of the soldiers of the imperial capital on the spot!

The soldiers were so frightened that they could barely hold the weapons in their hands, they screamed, turned around and fled, and the defenders at the east gate of the imperial capital fled by two-thirds in the blink of an eye!

Even the famous imperial general Justin could not stop such a rout.

It wasn't until Camilla was ruthless and sent his most dependent personal guards to the battlefield that he drove the Crusaders out of the east gate and recaptured the city gate.

However, this nightmare has only just begun.

Camilla lost the guards of his personal guards, and some nobles with ulterior motives in the imperial capital suddenly attacked, tangled and bought off the captain of the palace that night, and attacked the palace with 200 private soldiers.

That night, Camilla, who had just fallen asleep, immediately woke up from her sleep, and without even understanding the situation, she was hastily taken from the palace by the few loyal guards and hid in the house of the cardinal.

Although these rebellious nobles occupied the palace and drove Camilla away, Justin, who arrived in time, quickly suppressed the rebellion with his troops.

Camilla returned to the palace in shock, looking at the red carpet soaked in heavy blood in a daze, and the palace full of blood made her breathless.

Her attention was drawn to a badly mutilated corpse, the most intimate maid by her side, only sixteen years old, beautiful as a flower, and very much favored by her.

However, because she did not take her with her in time when she fled, the maid was brutally murdered by traitors, and was raped and killed by more than 30 people overnight.

Camilla looked at the corpse of the maid who had been ravaged to the point of instability, and couldn't help but shiver, she knew that if she fell into the hands of the enemy, the end would be worse than that of this maid!

Her Camilla's glamorous name, Noah's continent is world-famous!

In this case, Camilla began to doubt everyone around her, and began to distrust every general and minister.

Especially when she recovered from her panic, she began to order a bloodbath of the nobles who rebelled in the imperial capital, and both the cardinal and Justin struggled to persuade Camilla, saying: "Now is the time for the whole of the imperial capital to unite as one, and we must not kill people anymore, otherwise it will only make us suspicious and hate each other internally." ”

Camilla sneered and said: "If these rebels are not given a bloody lesson, then more nobles will think that the royal family is weak and can be bullied, and they will jump up, brandish their knives, and cut off our heads in front of those crusader knights!"

In the face of Camilla's anger, the ministers reluctantly chose to remain silent, they looked at the fierce battle on the city wall with concern, and at the same time nervously guarded against the possible outbreak of rebellion in the city at any time.

Camilla is not good at governing the country, but she is talented in power and strategy, especially for dealing with such emergencies, her methods are fierce and ruthless, and she is more fierce than men.

After the rebellious nobles were slaughtered by her, a strict curfew was soon imposed in the city, and residents were not allowed to move around at will during the day, and private gatherings of more than five people could be locked up by the guards, and if there was resistance, they were even allowed to be killed on the spot.

At the same time, Camilla decreed that all citizens should be stripped of their legal right to assemble or gather in large public places.

These crazy acts did not calm Camila, on the contrary, she was on the verge of a breakdown mentally and physically due to her severe lack of sleep and security, and she knew that her decree would inevitably cause resentment and a new round of riots or rebellions.

But in order to save her life, Camilla had to do this, and at this time, she was completely alone, and she even suspected that everyone in the city was talking about herself, talking about this unwinnable war.

On the second day of the battle, the Crusaders launched an even more fierce attack, and the soldiers stormed the city walls at one point, but Justin mobilized the people of the imperial capital to repel the fierce attack of the Crusaders.

On the third day, the Crusaders were forced to stop attacking on a large scale due to heavy casualties, and instead let the magicians start an endless magical bombardment, and the war changed from a tragic siege hand-to-hand combat to a magical war between the two sides.

What is more terrifying than the siege war is that the magic released by the opponent's magician can attack any place in the city, and the royal magician in the imperial capital only has the power of defense, and there is no room for fighting back, and even occasionally leaks a few spells, causing a mess in the city.

The magical war makes the imperial capital of Otrensia more desperate day by day, and a large number of merchants with goods try to flee from the harbor.

Camilla, who had discovered this beforehand, immediately sent the guards to the harbor, seized the merchants who were trying to flee, cut off their heads for treason, and hung their heads in the square.

Although there were ministers in the imperial capital who wanted to warn Camilla not to treat the merchants so harshly, and only needed to close the port, but Camilla was already crazy at this time, where could she listen to the words of others? She not only killed these merchants who tried to flee, but also ordered the port to be closed, and even ordered the nobles of these chambers of commerce to hand over their private soldiers and subordinates, so that Justin could lead them to resist the attack of the crusaders.

This behavior made the merchants of the imperial capital indignant, but they did not dare to resist, and no one knew what even more crazy Camila would do.

On the fifth day of the war, I don't know where to start, and a question began to spread quickly in the city: What would happen if His Highness Angel was allowed to rule the country and the city?

As soon as this question is raised, everyone will follow this line of thought and think about it, and this thought will be out of control.

From the aristocratic ministers to the common people, they were all talking about this topic in secret, and almost all of them thought that if Angel had ruled the country, there would be no such thing in front of them.

When these words reached Camilla's ears, Camilla, who was already extremely sensitive, finally broke out, and she issued the harshest and most terrible series of decrees since the outbreak of the Imperial Capital Defense War.

During the war, no one in the imperial capital was allowed to talk about the rebellion, nor was it allowed to talk about the war in front of them, let alone Angel and Tang Jie.

As long as the offender is caught, he will be immediately sent to prison and beheaded.

The people of the city are allowed and encouraged to report and denounce, and the royal family will protect the safety of the whistleblower and severely punish those who are reported.

After this decree was promulgated, the imperial capital was in an uproar!

The entire imperial capital suddenly fell silent, and everyone was afraid, afraid that someone would report them.

But after a short silence, someone finally jumped out and reported a middle-class businessman named Henry, who said that Henry complained about the harsh rule of Queen Camilla all day long.

That night, Henry's family was all taken away and imprisoned, and the next day their heads hung in the square.

This is a terrible situation, who can have no enemies in this imperial capital, and who can have no opponents?

This kind of report stimulated everyone at once, and in order not to make themselves the target of the enemy's report, the people had to desperately report their enemies.

Within one day, the number of people reported by the imperial capital was as high as more than 50,000!

For a time, everyone in the imperial capital was in danger, and the morale of the soldiers in the city plummeted.

Seeing that this was not good, Camilla issued a decree on the third day to repeal what could be called the White Terror.

However, the repeal of this draconian decree did not make the people of Otrensia grateful, on the contrary, many people mourned at home their relatives and friends who died under the White Terror.

The revocation of the decree means that their grievances cannot be retaliated against by reporting this kind of harm to others and themselves, and if there is revenge, they cannot take revenge, and this kind of revenge naturally accumulates on Camilla's body.

On the tenth day of the war, the Crusaders began to attack again, this time with siege weapons such as well-fences, catapults, rammers, and arrow towers.

Stone after stone rained down on the cities of Alterencia, and the crusader magicians who had been attacking for seven days were rotated to rest.

Camilla had just fallen asleep when she was woken up by the sound of a meteorite falling to the ground, and she was like a person who had been carried on a blazing fire, suffering and trying to transfer it onto others.

"Kohia, bastard, where is the others, how can he be negligent when I put the guards in his hands?" Camila roared angrily, and her usual graceful and glamorous posture disappeared, replaced by a hysterical female madwoman.

In the face of Camilla's roar, none of the guards dared to speak, only the important minister Sonny on the side whispered: "My Highness, Kohia died in battle two days ago......"

Camila was stunned: "Kohia died in battle?"

Camila pulled her hair and screamed, "The brave and warlike Kohia will not die in battle!"

She was talking to herself and yelling, and after a while, as if she remembered something again, she squatted on the ground and cried whining: "Koshia, my brave and warlike Koshia, loyal and brave Kohia." ”

In Camilla's opinion, if Kohia hadn't escaped from the palace on the night of the nobles' rebellion, she would have died at the hands of the rebels that night, so the only person she trusted was Kohia.

Now, however, Kohia was also killed in battle.

After crying for a while, Camila stood up with a sad face: "I want to pray for Kohia, that his soul will ascend to heaven, you don't come to me, let me be alone." ”

When the ministers waiting outside the main hall heard this, they looked at each other one by one, and their hearts were cold: Kohia is your loyal servant, aren't we? He died for you, and you are like this, why didn't so many soldiers who died in the city see you shed a single tear?

Sonny looked at Camilla's departing figure, sighed heavily in her heart, and shook her head secretly: although Camilla is scheming, she is a woman after all, and she can't withstand the terrible pressure of such a tragic war when she grew up in the palace of intrigue. She is a woman, not an iron man.

Camilla has collapsed, the empire is now no longer able to rely on her, and if she is allowed to continue like this, the entire empire will become her burial object.

But...... Who can replace her?
