Section 131 The soldiers are coming to the city
Annan, who was forced to abandon contact with the Snow Mountain Fortress, returned to Xingyue Bay for a moment, but the enemy's scouts were just as fast. After the white dragon carrying Annam fell into the square, the captain of the guard said that the traces of the scouts had been found in the forest.
"Gemma's Scout?"
Annan's black hair was blown to the back by the high winds, which caused the pedestrians around the square to shout Jack's name.
"Glacier Harbor has been quiet for a long time, they should be from the Loyal Knights."
"Did you catch the scouts?" Annan waved in response to the enthusiastic inhabitants as he walked towards the Lord's Palace.
"No, none of us can deal with them."
The development of Starmoon Bay is rather deformed - a town of nearly 10,000 people has a ten-meter wall that makes scouts exclaim, "What the is this?" There are no nobles and riches, no private soldiers, only 500 recruits who have not yet experienced combat and dozens of professional residents, but one blue dragon, twelve white dragons, and more than a hundred large elements make the scalp of epic professionals tingle. Suppose the intruders besiege Starmoon Bay, and the portal will make them suspicious.
"Then ignore them."
Deira and the elf rescued from the dungeon are just professionals, and may not be able to catch the scouts.
"Is the Cana family still going well?" Ingrid arrived.
Annan's mind flashed to their desire to eat their own fanaticism, and said normally: "Quite well, now only the Diatra family and the Barros family are left." β
"Let's talk about the Knights of Allegiance." Annan sat down on the sofa in the living room and asked Abby to prepare some drinks.
"They are the Knights stationed at the border."
Annan and Ingrid looked at Lilith standing on the stairs at the same time. "They obey only the kingdom, the royal family, and their knights of the Holy Grail."
"The Knight of the Grail is there too?" Annan asked.
"The Knights of the Holy Grail will only stay in the royal capital when they have no missions."
Ingrid looked at her, "How do you know?" β
"Everyone in the royal capital knows it." Lilith from the royal capital stepped down the steps. "Of the three major knights on the borders of the kingdom, the Loyal Knights are one of them."
"You're only telling us now......"
"Because you are on guard against me, and will not say anything to me." There was no complaint or dissatisfaction on Lilith's delicate cheeks, only rational talk: "I just learned that they are members of the Knights. β
Annan would have believed that Lilith had left her in the Lord's Mansion, but Ingrid was not so naΓ―ve and easily trusted someone she didn't know...... Or maybe Annan is the freak.
"How difficult is this Loyal Knights?"
"They're all elites."
Annan's shock at this moment was like a few silver coins suddenly swelling to dozens of gold coins after coming into contact with magic.
Ingrid also no longer maintains her calm and self-confidence: "The Knights of the Elite ...... How could there be such a knighthood? β
"Isn't that weird?" Lilith said, "They're knights stationed on the frontier. No one can command them except the King and the Knights of the Holy Grail. β
But now, such a knight order, one of the strongest warriors in the kingdom, is rushing to Starmoon Bay.
"Can we negotiate with them?" Annan asked.
"I don't know, but in the style of the Order...... They'll catch you first and then think about whether or not to listen to you. Lilith stood in front of the living room, "I suggest you'd better get out of here." They just want to grab you and don't embarrass your territory. β
"Nope."
Annan refused. Because of the imminent need to unite the twelve kings of the north, he could not flee like a mouse.
There are about one hundred and fifty large elementals in Starmoon Bay, with city walls and the support of Breeze City, which may not be able to compete with the Knights.
"Okay, but remember to take me with you when you leave. Also, there are a few books in the library. β
"A few hundred books isn't a small number......"
"I'm done with it." Lilith went back upstairs.
Annan looked at Ingrid: "Is this true?" β
"Well, she used to run to the library the other day."
Returning to the crisis of the Knights, Annan agreed to let Xingyue Bay enter a wartime state, and all the workers in the mines and forest farms were withdrawn, and only the farmland in the east remained unchanged. A team of soldiers was selected to form a guard to defend the lord's mansion, and Deella had an additional position as the captain of the guard in addition to the warden.
The biggest impact on Annan was that he couldn't run around anymore. Who knew that there were a few scouts mixed in Starmoon Bay. So in addition to running to the blue dragon's lair, the only way to tame the white dragon is to tame the white dragon with the boy.
For the next few days, Breeze City poured the walls layer by layer, day and night. Not to mention the Elite Knights, the Master Knights couldn't break through these ten-meter-high, two-meter-wide sturdy walls.
Annan thought that Breezy would keep the Knights out of the east, but Olmedo said they had bypassed Breeze.
It seems that the Loyal Knights know that Olmedo is on their side, and Annan will face the threat of the Knights "alone......
An elite guard with more than a dozen elites came to Starmoon Bay through the portal.
"That's not enough." Olmedo said.
"I know I'll move all the mercenary halls in Breeze City if necessary."
Annan told Olmedo not have to worry. He should be able to hold fast to Starmoon Bay, a knight that can easily trample on any city-state.
The white dragon rises into the air and tracks the Knights' position. When it returned, the boy looked frightened: "Peter has been found...... It says there is a terrible mage among the knights...... Almost couldn't come back. The Knights are almost there. β
"That should be the chief mage of the Knights, usually held by an epic mage." Ingrid said. She's been asking Lilith a lot about the Order these days.
"But how did they do it so quickly?" Annan was puzzled. It took them less than three days to get from Breeze City to Starmoon Bay......
"Because of the pathways you built."
Without the concrete road, they would have to spend a few more days.
Annan summoned everyone to the lord's palace, and a dispute ensued. He wanted to pit the large elementals against the Knights, but Ingrid, the captain of the Guard, and Francois and Fast on the new Primordial were all against him.
"You want your guards to never see blood?" Ingrid said.
"We need to go through the fight." said the captain of the guard.
"I know you want to protect everyone, but life never lets you choose between good and bad, it only gives you bad and bad." Francois said.
"A quiet life will not give birth to heroes, but blood and war will become epics." Fast said.
Annan had no choice but to agree to let the young recruits climb the walls.
Bell - bell - bell - bell -
The dust kicked up by the Knights floated at the end of the horizon. In the quiet dusk of Xingyue Bay, the clock tower echoed with the rapid sound of bells.
β¦β¦
"The way we came, this high wall...... How many bones of hard laborers were buried. β
The dark gold armor carved with the head of the lion looked at the rising city wall and whispered, "You are right, Annan Reeves is already a rebel king......"
The bearded man led the reins to the front, his sharp spear pointing at the figure on the wall:
"Surrender! Or destruction! β
