Section 165 Freithead's Guests (I)

On the spacious dance floor, men and women dance in pairs to melodious music, like a pair of butterflies that are at once in harmony.

At the edge of the dance floor, in the resting seats, Solomon sat with Agatha, opposite them some well-dressed Saxon ladies or aristocratic ladies.

"Hehe, Mr. Solomon, did Ansbach really have a giant spider, and the largest one is said to be bigger than a house?"

"This must be fake, someone is lying, trying to cover up Theresia's defeat, right?"

"What nonsense? This is what Prince Rett said to His Majesty himself, and my brother is His Majesty's attendant. ”

"Mr. Solomon, tell us quickly, whether this is true or false, didn't you come back with Prince Leitt?"

Solomon sat serenely in his chair, patiently and meticulously dealing with the women, who were as big as thousands of ducks.

He and Agatha were now guests of the Duchy of Saxony, and after escaping from Ansbach, partly because he wanted to continue to see more of the continent, and partly because Agatha was reluctant to return immediately, they agreed to Prince Reiter's invitation to escort him back to the capital, Freheit.

It's been more than a week since I've been back here, but I haven't been received by His Majesty Feuerbach, the Duchy's Sovereign, but I've attended Freit's balls and socialisings again and again.

Their current status is a bit embarrassing, and they can only be regarded as guests of Prince Reiter, but they can also get a certain amount of courtesy by virtue of this, because many people know that His Royal Highness Reiter has only returned from Ansbach.

And His Highness was able to return safely from Ansbach, and it is said that the man and woman in front of him helped a lot.

And, although they are aliens. But this pair of men and women have an amazing talent for language. The one had a cold look in his eyes all day. The woman who thaws only in front of Solomon can be understood, I heard that she came to Liguria some time before Mr. Solomon, and that her accent is not pure, of course, this is relative to the people of Freit.

But the other Monsieur Solomon was even more linguistically incredible, as if he were a Ligurian, nay, a Saxon, no. He's a guy who grew up in Freit.

Although the ladies and ladies are picky about Agatha's accent, it cannot be said that there is no reason for this, even the Saxons, in their eyes, Fleheit is noble, and Ansbach is the country, and Agatha has learned the Ligurian language because she has been active in the area of Ansbach before, so she has learned the taste of Liguria.

But Mr. Solomon's pure Flaeheitic Ligurian accent, and his gentle and mellow voice, fascinated the women by his voice alone.

Just like they are doing now. I didn't dance, or I finished the dance. will find an opportunity to talk to this alien guest.

On the one hand, it is true that they are all curious about the recent destruction of Ansbach and want to know the details from Solomon, and on the other hand, to these women and young ladies who are in a dream, Mr. Solomon's voice is like an aphrodisiac.

Even if he knew that his female companions didn't seem to welcome them, it didn't stop them from asking.

Solomon has been answering the questions of these curious babies for the past few days, and at the same time getting the follow-up information about Ansbach from their mouths.

After they left, Theresia, and the adjutant Max, who had gone to the rescue with a small number of men without hesitation, were killed, and the entire Knights of the Rising Dragons were wiped out except for the last squadron who escaped with Solomon and escorted Reiter.

However, the Holy Lana Empire was not considered a victor, as it did not actually occupy Ansbach.

The dying counterattack of Theresia and Max made Ludwig, the leader of the empire, accompany him to the funeral.

Although the remaining lieutenants of the Thunder Fire Knights took over the command, they could not restrain the withdrawal of the three major mercenary groups, and they could not work together to deal with the Ghost-Eyed Spider King.

However, the Ghost-Eyed Spider King did not let them go, and took the initiative to attack them, wanting to kill them or expel them from Ansbach.

In the process, the leader of the vaulting mercenary group was surrounded by spiders, and was finally killed by the Ghost-Eyed Spider King, who hatched a particularly strong ghost-eyed spider from his dead corpse.

Yes, the Imperial army almost escaped from Ansbach on the corpse of a spider, making the siege a joke in the end.

But fortunately, the main force of the ghost-eyed spiders has always been attracted by the imperial army, and only a small number of spiders dragged people in the city, so that a large number of citizens have a chance to escape, so that they will not all become raw materials for spider hatching.

However, Solomon's prediction did not come true, and although the inhabitants of Ansbach were not hatched into spiders, the army victims still provided plenty of hatching opportunities for the Devil-Eyed Spider King, and with the death of Garudwig, the Imperial Army not only failed to destroy the Ghost-Eye Spider King, but was also driven out of the army.

The existence of the Ghost Eye Spider King quickly became a formidable threat, turning Ansbach into its territory, and it was expected that it would soon be around it to expand the spiders' range.

In view of this possibility, the Knights of Thunder and the Knights of the Two-Headed Dragon fought against each other, and the two knights joined forces to encircle and suppress Ansbach, striving to destroy the Ghost-Eyed Spider King before it caused a catastrophe.

According to the colorful descriptions of the noblewomen of Freit, after the two knights launched an attack and attracted the spider swarm in the city to start a fierce battle, Black Flash Ozwald and the two-headed dragon Ferdinand broke into the lair of the Ghost Eye Spider King in the city, which was the original General's Mansion, and killed the Ghost Eye Spider King, and then cooperated with the army to clear the spider swarm that had lost its command, and wiped out most of the ghost eye spiders.

However, Ansbach had been destroyed, and according to the soldiers who stayed inside, it had become a ghost domain, full of huge cobwebs, and corpses with broken bodies and empty cavities, which were the fate of the hatching of spider eggs.

Ansbach became like this, and none of the residents who had fled earlier dared to go back.

The two Knights had agreed not to occupy it. In addition, the living inhabitants of the city are empty. It became a dead realm. I don't know how many years it will take for someone to dare to go back, or if someone will rebuild a settlement in another nearby part and develop it into a city.

The impact of this war was far-reaching, opening a new chapter in the changing situation on the mainland.

Although the wars between several countries have not stopped in the past hundred years, there is always a difference between fierce and relatively calm.

In the last 20 years or so, it can be said that it has been relatively peaceful, and although there are still battles from time to time, relatively few have used the regular army as the main force. A lot of the time it is a mercenary group hired to enter enemy territory to harass them, and if the enemy is unable to expel them, the war situation will be further expanded.

And the other party's response is often the same, it is also to hire a mercenary group that can be matched to expel or counterattack, and it is not easy to dispatch regular troops, which is also a huge impetus for the development of the Ligurian mercenary group.

However, the battle brought about the destruction of Ansbach, and in the days following the war, other nations began to act because of the Battle of Ansbach. The Duchy of Saxony lost the second-ranked Knights, and its strength was greatly reduced. They all had to spend a lot of money to invite the silver hand, the second in the mercenary group, to help them defend in order to make up for the combat power; the Holy Lana Empire's losses were smaller, but the rice that was eroded was not small, the Thunder Fire Knights were half crippled, even the head of the regiment Ludwig was killed in battle, and the strength plummeted in a short period of time, and the mercenary group that had always cooperated happily also suffered heavy losses, and the vaulting mercenary group was estimated to be disbanded, and the blood smoke mercenary group of Gao Rudas also suffered amazing losses.

Seeing this, of course, other countries will also launch tentative attacks, the Kingdom of Fenrir took the opportunity to sneak attack the border of the Holy Lana Empire, defeated the Thunder Knights, and drove straight in, forcing the Black Flash to move; the Kingdom of Glaar also attacked the Duchy of Saxony, leaving the Two-Headed Dragon Knights exhausted; the Republic of Esdania was still waiting and seeing, but the island kingdom of Myrad took advantage of the sea to land, captured Rothfriet, and took the initiative to provoke a war.

In this short period of time, the situation on the continent has changed, and a series of wars have broken out, which has far-reaching consequences, and the Majesty of Feuerbach has not had time to summon Solomon after his arrival in Freheit, and it cannot be said that there is no objective reason.

After the dance, the men who returned to their seats also walked to Solomon's place, but they were not interested in Solomon.

Just as the ladies here subconsciously disliked Agatha, these nobles also looked at Solomon unpleasantly.

They were interested in Agatha, who politely came over and invited her to dance to the next dance, only to be coldly rejected.

One by one, the men came with enthusiasm, and then they were taken away by the cold refusal, looking at their gray appearance, the ladies and ladies were certainly happy and relieved, but the hostility towards Agatha could not help but add a little more, and they had vaguely heard of it, and it seemed that Prince Rett had some interest in this woman.

However, when the poor prince returned, he did not appear again except for the first comeback ball that Freihead gave him, and it is said that he was grounded by His Majesty Feuerbach.

Oh, by the way, at that ball, Prince Rett was the only man other than Solomon who successfully invited Agatha to dance, and the legend of His Highness's interest in this woman also began on that day, and Agatha's enmity began on that day.

Agatha was only half-leaning on Solomon's side, their hands clasped tightly.

It wasn't that she didn't feel the potential hostility, but she didn't bother to pay attention to the misunderstandings and jealousy of the noble ladies.

It would be ideal for her to stay with Solomon as she is now, although she knew it was impossible, and she would have to let go of her hand as soon as she returned to Asturias.

As for dancing with Prince Reiter, it doesn't mean much, just because Solomon and she may have to spend some time in Freheit, it is worth her to deal with Reiter politely, after all, this is the territory of the principality of Saxony, the aborigines.

The door to the ballroom was pushed open, and a man known to Solomon and Agatha, Prince Reiter's attendant, Tim, entered.

He quickly discovered the location of the two Solomons, and then, despite everyone's surprise, walked directly across the dance floor and approached.

"Mr. Solomon, Miss Agatha, Your Majesty and the Queen would like to see you now. (To be continued......)

PS: Thank you Boss Wang and Tianxingzhi.
