141-142 (b)

After complimenting each other for a while, Balwin II invited the three to sit down at the throne.

Due to the urgency of the current situation in Byzantium, the Latin king had no intention of greeting him more, and quickly asked directly: "I wonder why His Highness personally ventured to Byzantium?"

After looking at each other, Cleo looked at Oni and Elrens, thought for a moment and replied officially: "Bixia, please forgive me, I believe you also know that the capital of your country has been besieged by hundreds of thousands of Nicaea, and now it has become a lonely city, no matter how hard you try to resist desperately, it will only be a matter of time before the city is breached!"

Celestia said this harshly, but Balwin II could only nod silently.

After more than a year of arduous siege in the defense of the city, the army of the Latin Kingdom in the interior of Byzantium was reduced by tens of thousands of defeated soldiers, most of them wounded and demoralized, the war materials in the warehouses were depleted, and the mages were exhausted by continuous overdrafts of mana. Under these circumstances, even the strongest walls could not withstand the enemy, unless there was a sudden change in the external situation, otherwise the demise of the Latin kingdom would certainly be inevitable.

Seeing that the other party acquiesced to his words, Cleo continued: "Truth be told, the reason why we have ventured here this time is actually at the request of my mother, Olympias, and the Black Dragon King Dack Diss, hoping to rescue Bixia and the main members of your royal family, and several Grand Masters of the Knights Templar, from this besieged city!"

"You're going to save us from Byzantium?!"

The Latin king was taken aback, and looked at several important ministers beside him. Even in the most desperate situation, he had never thought of leaving the capital and running away, but when he suddenly heard the other party's proposal, Balwyn II did not know how to answer for a while, so he looked at a middle-aged man sitting next to him in magnificent armor, who was none other than Jacques de Molay, the head of the Knights Templar.

Since becoming the head of the Knights Templar, Morley has fought in all directions for many years, and has made countless feats for the Cult of Light, and his reputation has spread far and wide. Since the Balkan War began three years ago, he led the main force of the Knights Templar to support the Latin Kingdom, but he did not expect that the Emperor Alexander IV of the Olympian League had unparalleled combat talents, and the Pera army under his command was even more unstoppable, and soon defeated the Latin Kingdom and the Templar Order!

The Templars suffered heavy losses in a series of defeats, not only in addition to this, but also in the betrayal of their former allies. By now, the Latin kingdom, which was besieged internally and externally, was on the verge of extinction, and it was all supported by Molay's great prestige to prevent it from collapsing immediately. Therefore, King Balwin II relied on him so much that he had to consult the chief of the regiment before agreeing to carry it out

As a rank 12 knight, Mo Lai's strength is extremely strong, but after a long and hard battle, he has not only suffered many serious injuries, but his fighting spirit has been exhausted, and the magic items in the city have long been exhausted. Unable to recover his fighting spirit and injuries, he was not as good as before, but despite this, sitting next to the king, his eyes were still sharp and his expression was majestic, and his momentum did not diminish in the slightest.

At this time, seeing the consultant eyes of Balwin II, the chief of the regiment was silent for a moment and then asked, "Is there no other way but to escape?"

Cleo nodded, "I'm sorry, but in the current situation, this is the best way to go. I also understand that Bixia and Your Excellency find it difficult to accept the shame of fleeing and abandoning the capital, but please think about it, there is no other possibility for staying here than the destruction of the city. Do you want to see the Latin royal family and the Templar Morale Corps perish?, but on the contrary, if we can escape to the unoccupied mountains of your country, then Bixia will be able to contain the scattered armies to continue the resistance, and Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief will be able to rally the members of the Knights stationed in various parts of Shijie!

Morai sighed, he didn't understand the reason of the eldest princess? However, the prestige of the Knights Templar was established by the unyielding spirit of the successive commanders over the years in the face of a formidable enemy, and he could not break this tradition in any way! However, it would be a good idea to let the other generals of the Order and members of the royal family of the Latin Kingdom escape smoothly.

So the commander-in-chief thought for a moment and then asked: "The Nicaean army is well guarded, although you have successfully broken through the encirclement, but at the same time, you have already alarmed the enemy, and it is not so simple to rush out again." I wonder how you're prepared for this?"

"You can rest assured of this!" Elrens had already been in full swing in the clash just now, and immediately interjected: "If you want to clash head-on with the Nicaeans, maybe I am not the opponent of hundreds of thousands of troops, but if you want to rush out, they can't stop me! Besides, we are also prepared for this coming, in addition to me, there are two adult black dragons and an abyssal sea dragon to meet outside, we only need to take advantage of the chaos to break out of the encirclement, and we can leave here on the latest Imperial air battleship." You can hide for a while in the Thracian mountains in the north, and then look for an opportunity to go south and continue your resistance in the areas occupied by the Nicaeans!"

Hearing this, Balwin II finally couldn't help but ask: "Your Highness, since the Black Dragon King Bixia is willing to send you to rescue us, why don't you just send troops to fight? I believe that with the strong strength of Dragon Island, once you participate in the war, you will be able to completely change the situation of this war! Please tell Discalypse Bixia on my behalf that as long as he agrees to send troops to help, after the war is won, I will not only not share half of the territory of the Kingdom of Nicaea, but also be willing to cede all the territories of the Latin Kingdom except for the surrounding areas of Byzantium to Dragon Island." If he's not interested, I can consider anything else!"

When Elrens heard this, he couldn't help but feel very stunned. The conditions proposed by Balwyn II were not unattractive, but he also knew that under the eyes of the Holy See in Bright Heaven, Dragon Island would never venture into a large-scale war, but all the secrets contained could not be easily told to the Latin king.

So the evil dragon didn't bother to explain, and simply said casually: "I'm sorry, the old man is seriously ill and dying, and Dragon Island can't participate in the war!"
