Chapter 66: The Competition
"I see."
So what are you going to do now?
Eliza asked on the phone, "Why are you doing this?" ”
"I see, I want you to know my secret." Edith's tone was calm and firm.
"What's the secret?" Eliza asked, confused.
"The secret is love." Eliza replied.
"Is love really that important?"
Illya is worthy of the title of heroine, and after the initial panic, Illya has calmed down.
"Elster's prestige is extremely high, and he is well prepared in advance, and ordinary means are difficult to overcome, and the only way out at present is probably to rescue the emperor or ...... in the imprisoned palace Kill him directly. ”
The latter, Blair, is a bit more difficult. Because he did not directly say the word "knight", but borrowed a name from the British royal family - "Elster".
The name is famous in British history, and it is also associated with Elster.
This man was Ian, the queen of King George I of England.
Elster was a model knight and patron saint of the kingdom, and was revered by Blair, Elijah, and other young soldiers.
Even though he had defected now, the desire to kill his former idols still made the young soldiers a little hesitant.
And judging from the actual situation, killing talented and prestigious officials in the kingdom will have a considerable impact on the kingdom.
It is no exaggeration to say that half of the reason why the Sophian Kingdom and the Kaoqi Kingdom did not suffer a big loss is due to Elster.
Because Elster helped a lot in this war and won the victory for King Kaoqi.
In this war, the bravery and wisdom he showed were even more amazing.
Ehrster's reputation is unrivaled, and it's not an exaggeration to call him the patron saint of the kingdom.
Once the Patronus dies, the Kingdom of Sophion will completely lose the ability to compete with the Kingdom of Kaoqi, and will only allow it to wreak havoc on the one side. This is undoubtedly a fatal blow to the kingdom of Kaoqi.
And the contradictions within the Kaoqi kingdom are also likely to lead to the collapse of the entire country.
In this case, Ayrst, the son of King Kaoqi, decided to make a change. When many military officials and young officers learned of the change, they chose to ignore it and went straight to side with Elster.
After all, the kingdom led by Elster was clearly more in line with the interests of the soldiers than the cowardly old king.
“...... If it really develops like that, that's all it will be. ”
"What do you think?" Ian McEwan asked.
"I'm sure I'll make it."
"Are you a man of faith?"
"I don't think so!"
"Why do you say that?" Yi Dawei asked.
"Because I'm confident." Ishin Noise ratio, he replied with a smile.
Illya said calmly, her tone indifferent and firm.
Blair looked at her with a strange look and said, "I think you will at least hesitate to make a decision so quickly?" ”
Of all the young officers, Elijah probably yearns for Elster the most.
In her mind, Elster was a good soldier and a good commander.
However, Ian doesn't think so, she wants to know what exactly Elster wants to do, does he really want to be a good fighter?
"I don't want to!" She said.
As a result, Blair was initially worried that he would agree to such a plan.
"I'm full of yearning for Lord Elster, but I love this nation even more...... And I don't agree with what Master Elster is saying. ”
Elster was going to choose to defect, Illya might have guessed.
He believed that Elster's betrayal was caused by the decision of the old king. After the death of the old king, he began to think about how to intensify the arms race.
He believed that the military must have great military strength in order to achieve its goals.
Elster's purpose is to expand his armament and power, and at the same time he wants to make his country a powerful nation, so he hopes to build his country into a stronger country than himself, rather than building a strong military kingdom like his father.
But out of consideration for the common people, Lao Wang always refused.
Afterwards, Illya turned to Zhou Zhenghong and said: "Although I know that this request is a bit presumptuous, I still want to ask you... Please can you help us, please! ”
Illya hung her head deeply and asked Zhou Zhenghong.
"I wanted to do that." Zhou Zhenghong replied.
In any case, the old king was considered to be a help to himself.
"Okay, let's start here." So saying, Tempo took his assistants and soldiers to the king, and he wanted to gather them together to deal with the rebels.
But things are not as simple as they seem. He had to find a suitable place.
He is here to help counter the rebellion, and when it is time to leave, he will be more at ease.
Illya is very efficient and quickly makes contact with the anti-Elster forces.
The presiding officer of the meeting was General Sandro, the highest-ranking and most prestigious.
"This guy has basically mastered the power in the court, and there are at least six layers of people in the military supporting him, so it will be difficult to attack the emperor head-on......"
"This can only send an elite team to infiltrate the palace to save the king...... a senior military officer said.
There was an incident in the history of mankind when a king was kidnapped and imprisoned in his palace for three months.
During this time, he appealed to the king three times for rescue. But each time it was rejected.
In the end, I had to ask humans for help. Is there really no escape? This is a common perception in the minds of most people.
Because even if they could actively defeat Elster, it would definitely cause the kingdom to be greatly weakened.
Therefore, they must achieve the final victory in this war, or they will be defeated by their opponents, and this battle is fought between the kingdoms of Elster and Kaoqi.
Elster's army was already in crisis, with a serious decline in combat effectiveness, unable to withstand the enemy's attack.
And in this war, the kingdom of Kaoqi is one of the most important players, so this time they not only won the victory, but also did not cause too many casualties to the kingdom.
But General Sandro shook his head and said: "Sending an elite team to infiltrate the palace to save the king is a good way, but I'm afraid it will be very difficult to succeed." ”
"Why?"
"According to the information I have received, Elster has obtained the Fallen Wings out of nowhere and used this magic sword to defeat Klaus in a one-on-one duel!"
"What!"
"Fallen Wings?"
"Demon King Lucifer's sword?
"Why is this happening?"
The people at the scene obviously heard the name Fallen Wings, so this moment was particularly shocking.
