Chapter 121: Knights Report (Asking for Votes)
Eros Has Fallen! The Lich and the Lich Dragon save the world!? - World Gossip Entertainment Weekly.
"Eros wants to destroy Clark with the Temple. - Arcane Research Journal.
"Strongly condemn Clark's god-butcher! This is the omen of the end times! βThe Wizard's Daily.
Li Aili, who returned to the Emerald Valley to preside over the overall situation, received a stack of newspapers from the housekeeper early the next morning.
"Madam, I have classified them for you in advance according to their attitude towards this matter."
Conrad divided the newspaper into three stacks and placed them in front of Elle Lee.
"These are praises for what His Highness Albert has done."
"These are neutral on this, and only report on the fall of the temple."
"These Last ......"
The last stack of newspapers has the largest number.
Li Aili probably glanced at the headlines above, and they were all criticizing Clark's god-slaughtering behavior.
She counted the first stack of newspapers, about 20 or so, and public opinion was changing.
Before Albert wiped out the temple with the power of the Time Dragon, all the newspapers scolded Clark for threatening to slaughter the gods.
"Public opinion is changing, Conrad." Li Aili leaned back in the boss's chair, "Because they see that God wants to kill, and the undead are saving the world." β
Conrad stood quietly at his desk.
Rich experience has taught him that sometimes, the superior only needs a quiet listener.
"Perhaps, this will happen again in the future."
"Conrad, we need to have our own mouthpiece."
The old butler put one hand to his chin, "There are a lot of newspaper tycoons in hell, they are up there with their old professions, if you need someone in this area, Madame, maybe I can catch a few for you." β
Ellie Lee: "......"
She couldn't help but ask, "So, why are they in hell?" β
Conrad maintained the usual demeanor of a butler and smiled, "They are newspaper tycoons. β
Li Ailie was just about to complain about Conrad's 'black humor' when there was a soft knock on the door of the study.
Knock knock.
"Please come in." Li Aili said.
Joanna pushed open the door and said with a look of excitement: "Your Highness, the knights are here!" Edward took them to the barracks! β
"They are now in the barracks waiting for your reception, Your Highness!"
At first, Li Aili thought that some acquaintances from the Blue Onyx Knights had come over.
It wasn't until she walked out of the town hall in the inner city and went all the way to the planned military camp in the west of the city that she felt that something was wrong.
As she stepped out of the carriage, she saw two full knights standing in front of her.
The moment the 688 knights saw her, they hammered their breastplates in unison, "Your Highness, the Blue Onyx Knights are here, serving you!" β
The men chanted in unison, declaring their allegiance, their voices reverberating through the empty barracks.
Li Aili looked at the battle in front of her in amazement.
Earlier, Arthur had said that he would send men, and Li Elli thought he would send at most a knight order.
Unexpectedly, Arthur would send two of the most powerful knights.
After coming back to her senses, Li Aili discovered the problem behind this incident and looked solemn.
But on the surface, she greeted the knights with a smile and said, "Today is a dinner party to celebrate your arrival." β
With that, she called the leaders of the two knights, "Balk, George, come with me." β
At the same time, she said to Edward, "I'll leave it to you, Edward, and help everyone get acquainted with this place." β
Edward hammered the breastplate, "Yes!" Your Highness! β
The two knights turned over and mounted their black nightmare horses and followed Lee Ellie's carriage back to the town hall.
As soon as she entered the office and closed the door, Li Aili couldn't help but ask:
"You all come here, what about Arthur?"
The two knights glanced at each other, and they both smiled bitterly.
"Your Highness (Arthur), please don't worry."
"Yes, ma'am."
Li Aili propped her hands on the desk, and a pair of turquoise eyes looked back and forth between the two.
"I want to hear the truth."
Balk's mouth snapped into a straight line.
George hesitated for a moment and said, "It's true, madam, Your Highness may not really need us on your side." β
With a 'have you lived enough' expression, Balk looked at George in shock.
Li Aili's heart sank, knowing that there was something that she didn't know about in the royal capital.
Arthur never reported good news and not bad news.
Conrad's loyalty to him is etched in his bones.
It's not that the knights were unfaithful.
It's just that Conrad's loyalty is to perfectly carry out Arthur's every order.
But the knights will have their own thoughts.
For example, George in front of him.
"What happened to Wangcheng?" Li Elli asked.
George groaned, "His Highness Albert has assembled an army of the undead. β
"Your Highness has established a ...... in order to contend with it Demon Legion. β
On one side are the endless undead, and on the other side are the greedy demons who crawl out of the abyss.
The elite knights of the human race are caught in the middle, and it is indeed difficult to manage.
Thinking about this situation, Li Ailie's brows became tighter and tighter.
"Any other news?"
George looked at Balk.
Balk gritted his teeth and said in a heart-wrenching voice, "That lich is fighting for power with His Highness!" β
George looked at Li Ali, as if to see if she meant to meddle in the matter.
"Ma'am, with all due respect."
"I'm afraid that only you can persuade Your Highness in this matter." George said solemnly.
Li Ellie's expression was very complicated.
1,000 years ago, he did not see Albert die in the last battle of the Holy Dragon.
But she meets Victoria, who is going crazy.
The shapeshifter lived himself like a beloved.
In the memory, these people are all wonderful.
Balk said: "That lich resurrected one by one what the son of Prince Zhenguo!" Gan! Every time one survives, a part of the power will be torn from the hands of His Highness! β
Balk was really suffocated during this time, "Now the royal capital is about to become a 'happy hometown for the undead'!" β
In my memory, at the ball, Albert's five princes' sons were crowded.
Those few people seem to have fallen one after another before the war was in full swing.
Because Albert's reaction was very calm.
Therefore, Li Aili was not impressed by this matter.
George added a crucial sentence, "Madam, the crux of the matter is that these undead who are resurrected later do hate the living. β
"They even hate His Highness."
Hearing this, Li Aili raised her eyes sharply and looked at George, who spoke, "Who do you say they hate?" Arthur? β
George said, "Yes. β
"At one meeting, His Highness disagreed with them."
"One of them directly asked His Highness, 'Why didn't you die for your country?'"
Li Ellie's heart was on fire, "Which one?" β
"Which one said that?!"
She had been speaking kindly, and suddenly her voice was high-pitched, startling the two knight leaders.
"Henry Holy Dragon, the eldest son of a 'Silver Pillar'." Arthur pushed open the door and answered Lie's question.
Seeing her lover, Li Aili stood up and ran towards the tall man.
Like a bird attached to the forest, she plunged headlong into the forest.
The white hand gripped the fabric of the man's back.
The close embrace tells the thoughts of the separation during this time.
The butler quietly left with the two knight captains.
Make room for this loving young couple to talk to each other.
