Chapter 418: The Knight's Leader's Mentor (with Easter Eggs)

"Why, does His Majesty want to use a knife against me?" Antonio said coldly, looking coldly at the soldiers who surrounded him, and squinting his eyes gloomily, "I don't believe you have such guts. ”

"Captain, maybe you should believe that rabbits bite when they keep their nests!" said Rogge, smuffling a cigar and putting an arm on Antonio's shoulder.

"Hmph, Captain Antonio, although you are an envoy of His Majesty the Holy Emperor, this is not a reason for you to break into my palace with two heinous criminals to be rude to me!" said King Sarenchesky of Erus, shaking his long white beard, pointing at Antonio.

"His Majesty the King is really well-informed. Rogge glanced back at Locke, who was hiding at the back of the crowd, and the magician glared at him, and the meaning in his eyes was: Shut up, don't open a pot!

"Your Majesty, I don't need you to tell me who I am a companion with, everything I do is to carry out His Majesty's orders, the so-called wanted criminals you said are clear to His Majesty the Holy Emperor, he didn't stop it, what qualifications do you have to accuse me?" Antonio stared at the King coldly and said without flinching.

"Yes, you are a member of His Majesty the Holy Emperor, and I can't control you, but don't forget that Erus is my territory, and you have no right to dictate my ruling power!" said the enraged king with a menacing slap on the table.

"I'll give you two choices: either get out of my palace immediately, or I'll arrest you and your comrades and send them to the Holy Council to be handed over to His Majesty the Holy Emperor!"

Antonio stared at the king with a blue face, his two hands couldn't help but clench into fists, and Tali on the side hurriedly stepped forward to grab his arm when he saw this, and whispered in his ear: "Don't be like this, let's not have a fight with the royal family, let's go first, and talk about it later." ”

Antonio looked back at Tali's earnest expression, and in his eyes Tali saw an unbearable anger after being provoked, and she knew that if the other party was not the king, he might have rushed to teach people a good lesson.

"You remember, my departure today does not mean that I admit your words, the land of Erus is not your private property, it belongs to all the people of Erus, you better remember my words, we will see!" Antonio pointed to the king and gritted his teeth, turned and led the crowd out of the crowd and left the palace.

Antonio, who had left the palace, turned the street angrily, suddenly stopped and punched the wall on the side of the road viciously, lowering his head in annoyance and trembling with anger, Tali stepped forward and grabbed his trembling arm with both hands, and softly advised: "Don't do this, dissipate your anger." ”

"Tully, you don't know how I feel!" Antonio shook his head angrily, pinched his hands and looked around the empty streets, and said, "Urus is my homeland, here is my hometown, I joined the knights in Mosco City, everything here is my shadow!"

He spread his arms and looked at the dead silence of the streets, and said, "Look at them, look at the place now, it has become a ghost town, even the royal city, how many other towns have suffered terrible dooms? ”

At this, he looked down and sighed with a worried face, and Tali looked at him silently, it was the first time she had seen him so sad and concerned, she wanted to say something to comfort him, but she felt that no words were even more powerless at this time.

She couldn't help but open her arms and embrace him in her arms, snuggling her head on his shoulder, Antonio silently closed his eyes, feeling her tight embrace, and the past that had happened to him came to his mind one after another.

After a few moments, Antonio gently pushed Tully away, looked down at her concerned face, and said, "Thank you, I'm fine, but we have to do something to stop the king's indulgence." ”

"What are your plans?" Tali looked at him trustingly, a pair of blue crystal eyes revealing a hint of affection, as if to say: Whatever you want to do, I am willing to help you.

"I'm going to go to my mentor, General Grammy, who is already at home, and I need to talk to him about what to do to turn the country around. Antonio said to her confidently.

Tali nodded in agreement, she had heard many times from Antonio's mouth that he was good at selecting talents, and she also wanted to meet him, so Antonio told Rogge and the others who were standing not far away about his plan, and no one objected, and the group followed him to General Grammy's residence.

On the east side of Mosco City, along an avenue called Victory Street, Antonio and the others found the residence of General Grammy, a simple two-story building, in front of which looked as inconspicuous as an ordinary house.

Antonio stepped forward and knocked on the door, and after a few moments, a voice from inside asked, "Who is it?"

Antonio immediately reported his name, and the person inside replied, "Please wait a moment, I will report to the master." ”

Everyone waited outside the door for a while, and suddenly the door opened, and an old man with gray hair came out of the room, his keen gaze swept over everyone present, and finally landed on Antonio's face, showing a kind smile.

"Welcome, Antonio, it's a surprise to see you. The old general said happily.

"Teacher, I'm glad to see you again, it's nice to see you well. Antonio stepped forward and hugged the old general, and General Grammy smiled and patted him on the shoulder and asked, "You haven't been back to Erus for a long time, I'm afraid you're not just coming back to see me, right?"

"You're right, teacher," Antonio nodded sincerely, "I came here after tracking down a lost artifact, but what I didn't expect was to see such a sad sight when I returned to Erus this time, I had just met the king, and his performance disappointed me very much. ”

"Your Majesty has not thought about the government for a long time," General Grammy sighed softly, stroking his long beard, "This is also the reason why I stepped down early, and now the affairs of the country are controlled by a guy named Ivan, and the king obeys him, and does not take any other people's suggestions." ”

"What is the origin of this Ivan?" Antonio said with a frown.

"It's a long story, let's talk about it first. General Grammy said out of the way.

Antonio remembered that they were still standing at the door of the house, and he turned back to invite the others to his side, and introduced him to General Grammy, "This is Miss Tully, the priestess of the merfolk and the keeper of the Hallows, and this is Miss Catherine, a witch. ”

Both girls politely greeted General Grammy, and the general was not surprised by Tali's identity, and although the general did not like Catherine's status as a ranger at first hearing, he saw that she was well-dressed and polite, not like the kind of charlatan woman who was dissolute, but did not show coldness and arrogance towards her.

Antonio then invited Rogge and Locke to the general, but when the Grammy general's eyes fell on the faces of the two, his face suddenly became gloomy, and he turned to pull Antonio aside and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter with you?

"Teacher, they are ......" Before Antonio's words were finished, General Grammy had already interrupted him, and he said with a stern expression: "I know who they are, and with an identity like yours, you should not be in the company of such a person!"

"But Teacher, along the way to track down the Hallows, they have been able to save the day several times, and I know that they all have a disgraceful history, but that doesn't stop them from helping the Empire reclaim the Hallows from vampires and dark wizards. Antonio argued unflinchingly.

General Grammy lowered his head and pondered for a moment, shook his head stubbornly, and said, "No matter what you say, I don't allow such people to enter my house, you can choose to let them wait outside, or just take them away." ”

"Teacher......" Antonio looked at him in embarrassment, and was about to persuade him again, when Rogge stepped forward and said loudly: "Captain, in that case, I think we might as well be separated for the time being, and I, Catherine and Locke will go around Mosco City to find out about Elizabeth's whereabouts." ”

"As for the king's affairs, which are originally the internal affairs of the empire, we countrymen should not be involved, so leave it to you to deal with, and when we find out about Elizabeth's situation, we will come back to you. Rogge said as he looked at Locke and Catherine behind him.

Antonio was still a little hesitant when he heard him say this, but Rogge didn't wait for him to make a statement, beckoned Catherine and Locke to turn away, and Tali stepped forward to him when she saw this: "That's fine, let's go separately, we won't delay anything on both sides, let's go first." ”

Antonio had no choice but to follow General Grammy into the house with Tully, who invited them to sit down on the sofa in the living room and ask the butler to order refreshments to be prepared, while whispering a few words in the butler's ear, and the butler left.

"Have you ever been back to your hometown to see it this time in Erus?" asked General Grammy, looking back at Antonio.

"No, we're from Itali and haven't had time to go back yet. When Antonio heard him mention his hometown, the worry that had been suppressed in his heart came to him, and he asked, "Does the teacher have any news about my hometown?

"As far as I know, there have been a large number of deaths throughout the Orenburg Territory, and the local chief priest of the Holy Congregation has died in many people, and the situation has become uncontrollable, and not long ago many fleeing civilians came to the royal capital to seek refuge, but His Majesty did not allow them to enter. General Grammy said worriedly.

"Oh my God......" Antonio lowered his head sadly when he heard this, deeply worried about his parents in his hometown, he hesitated for a moment, turned back to Tali and said, "Tali, I want the lamp god to help me go back to my hometown, I know it's not the time, but I'm really worried about my father and mother." ”

"I understand, I'm going to call the lamp god out. Tali nodded understandingly, lowered her head and took out the magic lamp from her waist and was about to summon the lamp god, when General Grammy suddenly said, "Wait a minute, don't be impatient first, even if you rush back now, you may not be able to find your parents." ”

He got up from the couch and said to Antonio, "Actually, you are here just right, I have someone here from your hometown, and you can just ask about your parents." ”

After saying that, he turned back to the door of the living room and shouted, "Butler, invite someone in!"
