"Woo--!――――――――!!!"

Remy stood outside the door, walking back and forth, his hands clenched into fists, the green tendons on his shoulders like sinuous snakes, and his agitated face never left the door for a moment.

The sound of Marcia's painful gnashing of teeth kept coming from behind the door, and even just listening to the sound could tell how terrible the torture he was going through, making a tough guy of the Knights, such a struggle!

On the bench outside the door, sat Raymond, Landzel, and Terenus, all with different faces, but all with worried expressions, Terenus constantly clutching the stubble on his chin, his eyes shaking back and forth.

"Bang Bang ............" The sound of iron boots sounded back and forth on the stone floor, impatient and irregular, making people feel upset when they heard it, like a thousand flies flying back and forth.

"Papapa-pa-pa............pa

"Oh my God, for the sake of the Radiant Cross, stop and sit there for me!Knight Remy!" Landzel finally couldn't help it and scolded loudly, "Do you know how annoying this is?!mm?!"

"I'm sorry...... But............" Remy said crampedly, his neck cramped, and his expression was cautious, but his eyes kept looking towards the door: "Marcia...... He ......"

"He can't die!" Landzel said helplessly, "sit there quietly, you can't do anything like this!"

"............" Remy, who was aggrieved, sat quietly on the bench, looked at the door without saying a word, his hands trembled and his fingers interlocked, praying for Marcia.

"Okay, somebody's going to say something!" Landzer waved his hand: "Anything, let's say something!"

"What do you say?" Terenus's eyes widened, and his expression was exaggerated to the extreme: "Twenty thousand! Twenty thousand orcs! What is there to say?!"

"Although I knew that there would be this day, but ......" Raymond smiled bitterly, patted his thigh hard, and stood up: "I still didn't expect it!"

"The enemy is not coming for us. Landzel analyzed in a deep voice: "Their target is the dwarves! They want to attack the Black Rock Basin!"

"If you can convince those damn dwarves, then go ahead!" Terenus yelled angrily, "Maybe they'll send reinforcements?!"

"But that's the point!" Landzel stressed, "The enemy's target is Singar, the gateway to the Black Rock Basin! They must take the city before the army of Singar is brought back, or they will have to fight the dwarves head-on!"

"Silent mobilization, their goal is to surprise the new gal!

"What do you want to say?" said Raymond, turning his head and looking at Landzel.

"First of all, we don't have a lot of time. Landzel looked at the two: "Secondly, the enemy is the same!

"We'll have to hold them back, and then have people go to the dwarves for backup!" Landzel nodded decisively, his tone becoming more and more affirmative: "They will definitely understand by then!"

"And after that, after the sacrifice of countless brothers? I can't stay here anymore. Terenus asked.

“............ I will decide later. Landzel said in a deep voice: "Whoever is still alive is responsible for deciding!"

"Bang!"

The door was pushed open, and a gloomy man in a leather apron walked out, his face and hands covered in blood.

"Doctor!" Remy was the first to rush forward, grabbed the man's hand, and looked at him impatiently, with a trance: "He...... I mean Marcia...... How's he doing?"

"The javelin's head was stuck in the ribs, the wound ruptured and it took such a long way to go, and the head of the gun is probably not very clean. The man had bad news after another, and Remy gradually fell into despair.

However, he probably intended to scare him, and soon his face became relaxed again, and he shrugged his shoulders tiredly: "Oh, but well, the catastrophe will not die!"

"Hah...... Ha...... hahahaha............!!!!ha

"Well done, sir. Terenus walked over and shook the man's hand, "Can I tell me your name?"

"Fatis, a subordinate of the Knights of the Dawn, originally belonged to the first column, but now it is the third column because...... I'm left in the first column. Fatis smiled and shook Terenus twice: "My father is a butcher, so I learned to use both hands when I was a child!"

"Very well, from today onwards, you will be the chief doctor of Tulga!" As if joking, and as if he was making a very serious appointment, Terenus smiled and said: "You can take care of a few people yourself, there is no salary but there is broth to drink, this room is your clinic!"

"Yes!" Fatis straightened up, hammered his chest, and strode out of the room to find the other doctors.

"What's next?" asked Landzel.

"Gather all the soldiers, have them assemble in the castle, and send a signal to Salion and have their knights take charge!" Tyrenus seemed to be ten years old all of a sudden, "We're going to do what we have to do." ”

"This would greatly detrimental the castle's defenses. Raymond disagreed, and glanced at Terenus, "And, it doesn't seem necessary. ”

"No, it's necessary. Terenus leaned heavily on the door and leaned on his head: "We deserve to die, but there is no reason for someone else to bury us with us!"

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Heavy footsteps, spears erected, soldiers lined up on the playground with solemn faces, and fully armed gathered here.

The knights donned their cloaks of dawn, solemnly as if they were holding a major ceremony, and lined up on the left and right with their bright knightly swords, making way for an aisle in the middle.

They didn't say a word, but they were confused and uneasy, not knowing what they were about to face, let alone whether there was any hope for their future.

"Soldiers—all in position―――――― "Will stood at the head of the queue, giving orders loudly, and shouted a loud and hurried slogan with a resolute face: "Salute!"

"Long live the Empire - Long live the !!! Empire - Long live the !!! Empire - !!"

Terenus walked out neatly dressed, and behind him was Raymond, who was also solemn and solemn, standing on the high platform, looking at the audience with a blank face.

"Soldiers, brethren, you are the best, the best warriors, you are still standing on the land of the Empire, defending this land of ours, and there is no doubt about your loyalty, glory, and courage, and no one can put any stain on you!" said Terenus in a deep voice, "So, I think you should also have the right to know the news, and then use your own hearts to decide what you should do!"

"A mob! an army of savage and ferocious orcs, outnumbered, bloodthirsty and merciless!

"They have twenty thousand terrible beasts. Terenus said this in a very calm tone, looking around at all the eyes that looked at him: "And we, apparently, do not have a liliang comparable to it. ”

"Even if we get carried away in the most heroic and fearless bloody battle with them, even if we bring out our most powerful liliang! we can still win the chance, it is still very small! We can only set off an inconspicuous wave in the endless army of orcs, and then be swallowed up quickly and silently!"

"What should we do?" Terenus paused, looking at the soldiers and knights in the audience with a natural expression, "So, I think the choice should be left to you." ”

"You have fulfilled all your responsibilities, and the destruction of the empire has nothing to do with you! You have fought bravely, but bravery does not mean that you are dead, no one has the right or the noble slogan to make you do something that is certain to die! Therefore, you can choose your next path and destiny!"

"We have sent a signal to the defenders of Saleon, the knights who have come to meet them will arrive soon, you can leave this place before the orc army arrives! to the north and start your new life! Everything starts from the beginning!" the old knight smiled, it was the smile of the elder looking at his junior, warm that it made people feel like a spring breeze: "Forget this painful and sad past, start from the beginning!"

Or...... Stay with me, an old man who should have been on his way a long time ago, in this castle with nothing, and let us watch the destruction of this empire together! Dying in battle is your only reward!"

"Those who want to stay, go back to their posts on their own. If you're ready to leave, you can go pack your things. The person who answered should arrive shortly. ”

Terenus didn't say anything more, laughed twice, turned around and put his arm on Raymond's shoulder, and the two staggered out of the playground.

Confused, surprised, frightened, difficult............ All kinds of emotions struggled in the minds of these soldiers and knights, constantly looking at their comrades next to them, hoping to get some help, but they were also as helpless as themselves!

The soldiers, who have always regarded obedience to the command as the supreme order, have been their own commanders for the first time in their lives, and they have made such a difficult choice!

Do you start anew, or end your life with a bang?

Is it life, or glory?!

....................................

"How's it going?"

In the hall of the castle, Landzel leaned against the table and asked Terenus who had just walked in, and although he knew that this old friend must be very tired now, he couldn't help but want to know.

"I've given them a choice, now it's up to them!" Tyrenus smiled bitterly, sat down in his chair tiredly, and took the flask and poured himself a glass, the cold liquid making him feel a little comfortable.

"Report!"

Will walked in suddenly, thumping his chest with his left hand behind his back and right hand, and then stood behind Raymond.

"Tell me, how many people are willing to stay?" asked Raymond, "Adjutant Will!"

"Do you want to read it?"

"Say, we don't have anything to be afraid of anyway!" Terenus looked indifferent, and took the opportunity to make a joke that was not very funny: "Of course, if there are not even a hundred people, then there is no need to read it!"

"Far more than that!" Will raised his eyebrows: "Although it's not zuihou's data yet, it should be about the same, just report the situation from the captains of each team, the first column is 500 people, the number of people who apply for retirement is 99, the second column is 500 people, and the number of people who apply for retirement is 78............"

"The number of people applying for retirement in the fifth column is 60. The Knights retired from 221 people, knights ...... Not a single one!The number of active servants in Tulga is 2,546 infantrymen, 776 knights, and 318 knights of the dawn!" Will finished speaking, and immediately stood up straight: "The report is complete!"

".................." Landzel's eyes widened, barely knowing what he was going to say.

"What the hell did you say, you old dog, so that these lads would like to die at once?!" Landzel almost cried out, his expression of astonishment amused.

"Because...... The flag hasn't fallen yet!" Terenus smiled, poured a glass of wine from the pot for each of them, and slammed it on the table with a "bang-" expression, his fanatical expression overflowing: "Let's toast! Celebrate, celebrate that this four-hundred-year-old empire will come to an end in our hands!"

(First of all, thank you for the support and reward of Solomon's Key (why is the name so long) children's shoes, the second volume is coming to an end, I hope you will continue to work hard!

zuihou, in response to the "Split God Cang" children's shoes, Handel's name does not have the slightest Roman style, and can only arrange a certain Harlingoth or Talboya for you as much as possible,

The most obvious feature of male Roman names is that the end sound is the end of the s, a few are a, and the female ones are mostly y or a, and the names are mostly repeated. So be careful when choosing a name, this kind of thing is too embarrassing)
