Chapter 1498: The Cloud in Front of Lumina
At night, with a tent, three thousand men and horses looked at a great city - Lumina. In front of the tent, Fried, with a cold face of steel, held his sword in both hands, and looked gloomily at the lights of the city of Lumina.
"Marshal, we're sure of taking Lumina, you don't have to be nervous. β
Shark Sappho: Once a bandit who roamed the western part of the continent and killed people without blinking, a serrated war knife, the Shark once terrified the coastal kingdoms, but now it is a powerful force in the hands of the creation king, and has been transferred to Fried's command to obey orders.
Fried's cold eyes glanced at Sappho beside him, making him tremble inside. These eyes were not a pair of eyes that were nervous because of the heavy responsibility, and those cold and piercing eyes revealed fanaticism, hatred, and excitement. Sappho's Adam's apple rolled and he stood silently, and it was hard for him to imagine what kind of eyes they were.
A young woman arrived, and she handed a copy of the letter to Fried.
Marshall, the Hunter: A veteran member of the Genesis Throne, a former subordinate of the Armor, who was now transferred to Fried's command along with Armor Berwick. Yesterday, she had just turned thirty-one.
"Abzi's secret letter. Marshall said only so briefly.
Fried opened it and glanced at it, then folded the paper and held it in the palm of his hand, and crumpled it into powder: "Sue the demon thief Abz, find out the identity of the other party, and then report back to me." β
"But this matter ......," Marshall interrupted only halfway through.
Fried had no expression on his face, and said in an unquestionable tone: "The Holy Emperor has transferred you to my subordinates, and you will listen to my orders as soon as you are ready." I am the Generalissimo of the Vanguard, and everything is up to me from the moment I set sail!"
Marshall bowed his head and said, "Yes." β
Fried kept his eyes on the front and said, "I will report this matter to the Holy Emperor, you don't have to ask." β
"Yes, I'll send a message to Abzi. Marquin turned and walked away.
Abuz: A lone rogue roaming the deserts of the Sea of Death, often wearing a brown-colored hooded leather jacket that conceals his body, and a silver-black metal mask. As a young man, he joined the team of the desert thief god Ulmente, and was close friends with the blonde Shakhan, who spent several years alone in the desert after his death before being absorbed by the creation kingship. For the Holy Armor, a subordinate of Berwick. He is now under the command of Generalissimo Fried, 57 years old.
After Marshall left, Fried turned back into the tent and said to Sappho, "You're watching from the outside. One has a signal. Do what you are told. β
Sappho bowed his head and said, "Yes." Rest assured, we have been in business for many years, making it easy to change color here. β
Lumina. The capital of Adria, the city is built on a mountain, and below the mountain is a vast plain, with hundreds of thousands of houses on the mountain, and the tallest of them, the royal city, is built on the top of the mountain, protected by a powerful magical barrier. At this time, the majestic palace and royal city are brightly lit, and the joyful feasts and pleasant music play a peaceful and enjoyable world.
"Your Majesty, come on, today is your birthday, the old minister has to congratulate you, I have to toast you. β
The king was a graceful old man, very old but very young, and his few wrinkles and delicate skin showed his pampering, wealth and glory. In contrast to him was another old man who toasted him, who was dry and thin, bald, with only a ring of snow-white old hair. But don't look at this person is thin and old, but he is the most authoritative person in Adria, the king rarely takes care of government affairs after the age of fifty, unless it is a very strict national affairs, and the rest of the major affairs are all handed over to this thin old man, under his promotion and appointment, the country has been full of his henchmen, in this country he can be said to cover the sky with one hand.
This thin little old man's name was Andre, and at this time he finished drinking a glass of wine with the king, and he chattered and said, "Your Majesty, why didn't you see Princess Hefimie?"
The king, with the help of the attendants, greeted the guests who came to congratulate him lazily, and said to Andre: "Hehe, this little girl, I can't control her more and more, my father has a birthday today, and she was still criticizing government affairs before, and she said that she would come back after changing her clothes for a while." Alas~!, she should be half concerned about my father's affairs. β
"How can it, the princess still cares about your majesty, she is also afraid that your majesty will work too state affairs, so she wants to share her worries for your majesty. Andre took the wine glass and said with a smile, but his eyes rolled, revealing a hatred that was difficult for ordinary people to detect.
Hefami: The youngest princess of Edria. The king had a daughter at the age of fifty-five, and was very fond of her, but the princess had always been worried about her father's power since she became sensible, and she was very disgusted by Andrei's appointment of private individuals, and she was extremely opposed to Andrei's policy of offering money to pirates every year. It's just that her father trusts Andre very much, which makes her feel helpless. She had five older brothers and three older sisters, but she became Adria's future heir, and by the time she was sixteen years old, her father had put her in charge of the monarchy and handled the affairs of the state with Andrei, for more than four years.
While the king was happy, he also thought about some state affairs, and asked Andrei: "How are you handling the affairs of Baikal?"
Andrei said with a smile: "I am discussing the details with those pirates. Rest assured, pirates are only for money, and when they get the money, they will leave. β
The king frowned, and said displeasedly, "It's been so long, why hasn't it been done yet?" What if those murderous pirates start a fire and slaughter the inhabitants of Baikal and cause a disaster?"
"This ......" Andre showed a very embarrassed expression, and said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, you really can't blame me for this." Princess Hefimi has always opposed my policy of stabilizing the pirates first and then strengthening the army, and the terms of the deal with the pirates are stuck with the princess. β
The king was also helpless about this daughter, patted Andre's arm and said, "Okay, I'll tell Hefmi about this later." β
Andre bent down and said continuously: "Thank you, thank you." β
During the banquet, a small, slender man who looked like a girl came to the king's side. AndrΓ© hurriedly pulled her to introduce her to the king, "Your Majesty, this is Lady Donovan, she is the dwarven mage of the Thrasser. β
Donovan, the little demon mage: The Thrasser, a branch of the dwarves. This dwarf is known for its small and slender stature, not as athletic as the other branches, and more like a miniature version of the extinct elves. Donovan is now 46 years old, and her longer life span than a human makes her look younger. She is only 1.3 meters tall and is good at manipulating magic, so she is known as the Little Demon Mage. She joined the Creation Throne early on, was a subordinate of the Holy Armor, and now works under Fried.
