Chapter 216: Bloodless Blades
On February 1, outside the city of Caiyun, the capital of the Caiyun Empire, the battle flags fluttered and fluttered in the sky, and the drums were bursting, approaching the army of the city, covering the sky and the wilderness, and the momentum was overwhelming.
Generally speaking, if the war is fought under the capital, it will definitely be won or lost. The current battle for the succession to the throne is no exception. The number of troops supporting Princess Alice has reached 150,000, and they have an absolute advantage, completely surrounding the entire capital.
And half of Empress Rosie's original capital guards have fled, leaving only more than 20,000 people, and no one dares to guarantee the loyalty of the remaining people, will they secretly support the princess to defect at any time. The only thing Empress Rosie can really trust is the 10,000 Knights Templar from the Holy See. As for the reinforcements, the Fit reinforcements from the southeast were ambushed in the Breeze Canyon, and were surrounded by the undead skeletons of the ancestors of the Caiyun Empire who died in the canyon a hundred years ago, and finally had to surrender, with more than 30,000 captured casualties, and the remaining less than 50,000 people were blocked south of the canyon by the skeleton legion with more than 100,000 numbers, unable to advance or retreat.
And the news that the hoplite legion of the Bright Moon Empire suddenly and silently retreated to its own territory made matters worse. In the end, Rofitte was still scared, and did not dare to openly tear her face completely with the god-level combination of Linya and Alice. Empress Rosie in Caiyun City is now truly embattled and isolated.
But it's still too early to storm the city. The construction of siege equipment was a big project, and the walls were full of houses, so it was not easy to clean up. Alice also didn't want to destroy too many people's homes and property, after all, these were the people and wealth of the Caiyun Empire, but the war was ruthless. Fortunately, a large number of soldiers escaped from the city every day and defected to Alice's camp, and the smaller Rosie's strength, the less damage the war caused.
The real trouble was the Templars. These religious knights did not owe allegiance to secular kings and monarchs. They owe allegiance only to God and to God's spokesman, the Holy See. These dead-eyed guys won't be deserters because of the huge disparity in strength, which is really a headache. But fortunately, Linya already has a way, which can also be said to be a pre-arranged plan.
On the morning of February 3, Alice sent Duke Darren to order the defenders to open the door, and she was to enter the city in the name of visiting her father. And the defenders conveyed the order of Queen Rosie, Princess Alice can enter the city, but she can only bring the guards, not the army, otherwise it will be an illegal rebellion. However, she seems to have ordered Princess Alice to be declared a traitor.
But the unexpected is what happened. Princess Alice actually agreed, and she brought only a hundred guards, came to the city gate, and personally asked for the door to be opened.
Rosie was so surprised that she almost fell from her throne, that girl is crazy. Rosie came to the castle tower and looked at Alice and her party in front of the city gate. My heart is beating a drum. She has such an advantage. What else do you want to risk doing?" "Empress Rosie suddenly had a fantasy of a miracle that could turn the tide of the situation.
The gates creaked open, and Alice entered them with her Praetorian Guards, and the soldiers guarding the city were puzzled. When Alice and her party reached the square, Rosie was about to order the army to rush up and catch them, when a huge and terrifying dragon groan suddenly came from the sky, and the black dragon fell from the sky like a meteor. As it approached the ground, it opened its bloody jaws and spewed black flame dragon breath at Alice and the others.
The crowd ducked to the side early, and the light dragon appeared just in time. Spraying light and flames to fight with the black dragon, dragon breath, flames, roaring, giant wings, two dragons staged a thrilling and wonderful dragon battle in the sky for the people of Caiyun City. Of course, this is all a pre-made plot.
"Dragonsummoner Rosie, Harris Eyler, I already know about your scheme!
The Templars' eyelids jumped at the hearing. Dragon Summoner?Light Dragon Summoner?
"Rosie, Harris, Eller, come to your senses! Your defeat is doomed! You are so arrogant to try to use your own dark power against the whole world of light!" Alice shouted.
Empress Rosie was stunned and at a loss. If she really had the power to summon the demon dragon, how could she be afraid of these little girls, but the black dragon did appear, and attacked Alice and the others when she was most likely to make a move. How can she defend herself now?
"Rosie Harris Eyler, Dragon Summoner, come out, I'm Linya Lantis Severa, Light Dragon Summoner, I'm going to challenge you!
Of course, Rosie couldn't have come out to fight, as a magician, she had just learned Linya's terrifying magical plunder a few days ago, and it was terrifying.
The commander's silence made the soldiers even more alarmed. The Templars, on the other hand, became increasingly suspicious. Wouldn't it be ridiculous to have them, the Knights of Light, fight for a dark apostle who summons a dragon?
The battle in the sky continues, and the battle between the black dragon and the light dragon is evenly matched, and it is extremely fierce. After provoking for a while, Linya finally let the coward Rosie go, and summoned the sword of light that was so radiant that it was impossible to look at it directly.
Linya spread her wings and flew up, skillfully flipped under the black dragon's fleshy wings, climbed its strong chest like a mountain, raised the sword of light in her hand, and stabbed it hard. The light faded, and it was completely submerged into the dark dragon's body.
Amid the exclamations of countless people, Erik Doya roared and fell from the sky, finally falling in the direction of the harbor. Some people may wonder why all these slain dragons end up in the water.
Finally become the princess of the dragon slayer!, Linya rode Olachiria back to the square triumphantly, her face as happy as a flower. "It's finally successful!" Linya, who was happily held in Alice's arms, couldn't help but sigh, "I finally killed the evil dragon and became a dragon slayer warrior, it's really not easy!"
But...... Suddenly, I felt a sense of loss...... Once you've killed the dragon, what's the next time you should play?
In the face of the dragon of holy light that fell again, the remaining defenders in Caiyun City finally collapsed. They don't have the courage to face this behemoth anymore. The Knights Templar also began an organized retreat from the city. Sometimes the last straw can crush a camel, let alone such a big dragon.
When Linya accompanied Alice and the group to Liuyun Castle, not only did they not receive any attacks, but the number of people increased dozens of times, and the soldiers in the original city joined the guard camp one after another. Now, the soldiers defending the city have begun to spontaneously search for Empress Rosie's cronies everywhere, ready to ask for credit.
"Long live the princess! long live the princess!" the soldiers shouted to express each other's identities and positions, and it was a fool to follow the queen at this time, so soon the cry swept through the castle. What had been a chaotic situation soon calmed down. Surprisingly, everyone thought it would be a bloody battle, but it ended with minimal losses, and Princess Alice won the war. And the credit goes to Linya and her dragons.
When Alice arrives at her father's hospital bed in the palace, the soldiers also happen to catch Queen Rosie, who is trying to escape. Together with the illegitimate son of Emperor Camino Comino, they were sent to Princess Alice to await her disposal.
Alice's eyes almost burst into flames. With a thud, he pulled out the sword at his waist. Linya hurriedly stepped forward and pressed her hand. He comforted him gently: "Sister Alice, do you remember what I told you last night? Alice stared at Rosie with burning eyes for a long time, then finally sighed and closed her eyes. "Lock her up. Albert. The task of investigating the evidence of her crimes against His Majesty the Emperor is entrusted to you. And inform the Estates-General that they are ready to try this woman for murder and treason!"
Now, that's all that's left for that last thing. Alice walked over to the bed and reached out to check the Camino Emperor's pulse. He's alive. Then her light magic began to rise along her arm. In the end, he was blocked by a powerful dark magic in his shoulder. Yes, he did fall into the dark abyss, where he suffered. The billowing magic from the Bright Star began to seep into Emperor Camino in a steady stream, driving away those dark magic little by little. It doesn't seem like you even need the water of life.
A day later, while Alice was having lunch with Linya, she got the news that the Camino Emperor had finally woken up. Alice hurriedly ran over and saw that he was drinking porridge under the service of the maid, and when he looked up and saw Alice, there was a strange look in his eyes.
Alice took the bowl of porridge from the maid and waved the others away. Linya also retreated with interest, leaving the room for the father and daughter.
Alice ...... You're back?" said Camino, with some confusion.
"Yes, I'm back. Alice pressed the excitement in her heart, sat down on the edge of the bed, and continued to spoon the porridge to his mouth.
Rosie...... She didn't embarrass you, did she?" said Camino, worried.
"Absolutely. ”
"Are you hurt, then?" said Emperor Camino worriedly.
Alice's heart was filled with infinite bitterness, the taste of tears. Why, is this family affection, it feels so far away. "She couldn't hurt me anymore, she was put in prison by me. You've been in a coma for six months, and these days, a lot has happened, but it's over, it's all over. ”
Emperor Camino was stunned. Then he bowed his head guiltily, "I'm sorry, Alice. It's all my fault. ”
"Needless to say. I'm coming back because I have a question I have to ask you. What role did you play in the murder of your mother and sister?" (to be continued......
PS: I'm sorry to inform you that "Angel Princess" will end in the next few days. It's a bit too sudden, so please forgive me. I felt like I couldn't write anymore, and the plot was just around the corner, so I decided to leave it at that. Lest I write it down again and break it again, then I will be even more sorry for everyone. Alas, it's a pity that I couldn't pick it up in the end...... I'm sorry for the book friends who have always supported me...... Please forgive me...... Since the return of this interrupt, the newly written chapters feel worse and worse, as some book friends say, the setting is better written than the main text, and the front is better written than the back...... This is indeed a fact, and now, the plot is erosive, and the words are more and more jerky, and I don't know what I'm writing anymore. I guess it's boring for everyone to watch. Alas, let's end it. Maybe it's still very reluctant, but I think it was the right decision. Finally, I would like to bow again and thank my dear book friends for being with me all the way. niu924214, Crocodile looking for the blind man, Hae Eun, Remnant Flower ↘, Alanis, Smallmi, Demon King Jili-sama, Yatian.
