Volume 1 Crime and Punishment Chapter 61 Farewell (1)

Royal Palace of Hurres.

Elizabeth Stephanie sat in a luxurious high-backed chair, Barnett reported to the Empress at the table the battle report of the first line, Barnett was no longer young, but his spine was still straight, and the countless badges on his chest were shining a little more in the afternoon sun at this moment, but no matter how many glorious honors the Generalissimo Corvo had received, he still had no way to face the non-stop pace of the funeral army, but in just two months, the Generalissimo's hair had turned half white.

Barnett put down the battle report in his hand and looked at Stephanie, Stephanie had not rested for three days and three nights, and his face full of vicissitudes of life could not help but rise a little unbearable, but now the situation in the empire has really reached the last moment, a month ago Shencheril announced that it was broken, and the officers and soldiers defending the city retreated to the Andorran defense line, Barnett gave a death order, no matter what method is used, the funeral army can no longer be allowed to move forward, countless Corvo non-commissioned officers launched the final battle to the death in Andorra, Corvo's dying battle really slowed down the funeral army, but with the death of senior officers at the general level, Andorra finally announced the break a week agoAt this moment, the burial army and Hurlis are just separated by a plain without any protection, and at this moment, in the eyes of the funeral army, Hurlis is like a fish on a chopping block, and there is no possibility of resistance.

Stephanie lowered her head and rubbed her eyebrows, Barnett hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, make plans early" Stephanie nodded slightly, without words, Barnett stood up, made a standard military salute, and then strode out, it is not difficult to see from the back of Barnett who turned to leave, the generalissimo of Corvo also knew that he was powerless, Barnett walked out of the resolution hall of the palace, and at this moment there was a faint sense of ruin in the palace, when Andorra announced the breakdown a week ago, the empress dismissed almost all the people in the palace, Barnett walked straight out of the main entrance of the palace, and the guards in front of the palace were still holding spears and standing straight on both sides of the main entrance。

Barnett looked forward, the whole Hurlis was in chaos, the streets were full of people packing up and fleeing, Barnett sighed deeply, his eyes were full of gloomy, the funeral army had surrounded the entire Hurlis in three ways, even if these people went out of the city, where could they run, even if they really escaped from the pursuit of the funeral army, but the country was destroyed, what was the point of running farther.

Suddenly, a deep voice sounded from behind Barnett, "General" Barnett turned his head, Alex was wearing a suit of armor, standing behind Barnett with a helmet in one hand, Alex gave a military salute, and said in a deep voice, "Report to the General, the Hurlis Janissary Guard and the garrison have been assembled" Barnett nodded slightly, and said a little hoarsely, "Let's go"

After Barnett walked out of the resolution hall, Stephanie let go of the hand that was rubbing her eyebrows, she stood up and looked back, behind the high-backed chair was a huge and wide floor-to-ceiling window, from the floor-to-ceiling window you could see the whole city of Hurles, in Stephanie's eyes, the crowd on the streets of the entire Hurlis was bustling towards the city gate with luggage, Stephanie smiled a little self-deprecatingly, her extremely elegant blonde hair was now scattered, and the queen's appearance was nothing when the country was at stake.

Stephanie turned her head, and above the main entrance of the Resolution Hall, there were three large photographs of Elizabeth I and Elizabeth II, and the last one showed a man in a rich suit, none other than Adams Angelo.

Stephanie stared at the last photo for a long time, after the death of her mother, she never saw her father, Adams, and at the time of the country's survival, Stephanie finally gave up the idea of seeing her father, Stephanie's eyes were sour, and two lines of tears finally flowed, this year's Stephanie is only twenty-one years old.

In addition to the two armies that went to surround the funeral army, the large camp was stationed ten miles outside the city of Herlis, the sky gradually darkened, and the funeral army was still brightly lit, countless soldiers dressed in black shuttled in the camp, carrying all kinds of weapons and equipment, preparing for the battle early tomorrow morning, the military discipline in the funeral army was extremely strict, at this moment the camp was the sound of scraping on the ground when the equipment was transported, but no one spoke, there was a huge tent in the middle of the funeral army camp, there was only an extremely long wooden table in the tent, and Ke Rui, who was dressed in white, was sitting on the main seat。

In the lower right corner of Curry sat Jarvis, who was originally a pillar of Corvo, and in the lower left corner of Jarvis sat Biban and Bigir, and in the lower left corner of Curry sat a man in black armor with an extremely majestic figure, and under the man sat a red-haired and bewitching woman, and the military commanders of the other vassal countries on the rest of the seats were in shock.

Beecheer completely restrained his arrogance in front of Curry at this moment, his eyes were closed, and his hands were placed on his laps in a regular manner, and it was not difficult for the man and the red-haired woman with strong bodies to see their identities, it was Arnold, who symbolized war in the Four Knights of Doom, and Lilith, who symbolized injustice, Arnold was nearly two meters tall, and behind him was carrying a huge black broadsword that was a few points taller than him, Arnold had a face like a knife and an axe, he put his arms on the table at the moment, and his eyes were full of desire for war, and in this war, the Corvo soldiers who were beheaded by him could at least have nearly a thousand。

Lilith sat next to Arnold, her figure was more slender, she was wearing this red tight armor that was the same as her red hair, Lilith's face was extremely seductive, but no matter which direction looked at her, it seemed that she would be the first to notice, Lilith's smile was as bewitching as her face, but anyone felt that there was no trace of warmth in her eyes, and looking at her was like being wrapped around the neck of a cold spitting snake, and the next moment she would be bitten off her throat.

After a long time in this big tent, no one spoke, Jarvis blinked his small eyes, turned to Curry, and said respectfully, "Your Excellency Curry, I don't know what you ordered to summon me and others late at night?"

As soon as Curry's voice fell, he sat down and responded to the harmony, all of which praised Curry's use of soldiers like a god, Igniz's greatness, etc., Curry waited for the harmony to gradually weaken and said, "Tomorrow morning will launch a general attack on Corvo, so from tomorrow onwards, you just have to wait in the camp" Curry's words were like throwing a huge stone on the calm water, and the generals of the vassal countries stood up suddenly, and at this moment, they didn't care about Curry's identity, and shouted, "Igniz is going to cross the river and tear down the bridge?" Even the always scheming Jarvis couldn't help but frown tightly, and you could tell from the clenched fists how nervous he was at the moment.

Curry raised his head slightly, but did not make a sound, Arnold suddenly slammed his fist on the table, the huge sound silenced everyone at the same time, Arnold's terrifying aura overflowed, as if it was tangible, driving the wind in the big tent, and the people who were blowing did not dare to say a word, the big tent suddenly became a deathly silence, Curry's state of mind still did not seem to be disturbed for half a minute, he raised his head and looked at everyone and said, "Igniz promised to give you no less than a penny" Curry waved his hand and said, "Lilith, send off"

When Lilith heard this, she stood up, giggled and said, "Everyone, please go back" When the generals of the vassal country met Lilith's bewitching eyes, a chill instantly went from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads, and everyone didn't dare to say a word more, and retreated quietly, they seemed to regain their breath the moment they went out, but everyone's backs were soaked in cold sweat.

There were only Arnold, Lilith, and Curry left in the big tent, Curry was still sitting on the main seat with his eyes lowered and didn't know what he was thinking, Arnold stood up without saying a word and walked out, and Lilith's eyes swirled around Curry, laughed a few more seductively, twisted his waist and walked out.

There was only one person left in the big tent, Ke Rui leaned back in his chair, looked up at the top of the big tent, the light in Ke Rui's eyes flickered and dimmed, as if he was struggling with something, but in the end it still became calm, how long has it been? Ke Rui himself can't remember clearly, everything in his childhood seems to have gradually blurred, and only the shadow of the huge red dragon is left in his heart, but he knows that there seems to be a very important person for him, and there is something that must be done, but who it is and what he wants to do, it is gradually no longer clear in his heart.

In the early morning, the sky was just dawning, there was no one in the camp assembled, the camp was quiet, in this silence, three hideous horses with a height of three meters carried the three people on horseback without hesitation on the plain, straight to Hurlis, three horses one black and one red on both sides, the white horse slightly forward half of the horse, Curry in the white horse stretched out his hands, and then behind the three horses rose a gray mist that covered the sky and the sun, the mist stretched out on both sides of the three horses, and then Curry put his hands together, symbolizing Igniz's gesture suddenly formed, and then in Curry's hands actually burst out of a very violent white lightThen, in the boundless mist, countless demons from hell rushed out of the mist, following the three of them forward!

Endless demons covered almost the entire plain, and hundreds of millions of demons opened their bloody mouths and roared wildly, like an endless black wave, and the deafening roar could even rupture the eardrums of ordinary people, rushing towards Hurlis.

Just under the walls of Hurlis, all the remaining troops of Corvo have been assembled, Barnett is dressed in battle clothes, standing at the front of the army, and Stephanie is standing high on the city wall, she is dressed in royal robes, her hair has been coiled into a bun, there is only one color left in her eyes, Stephanie looks into the distance, the boundless black wave has arrived in front of her, she raised a fist, just about to speak, suddenly a familiar voice came from behind her, "Fanny"

Stephanie jerked his head back, and Adams stood quietly above the city, still wearing the most ordinary white robes, while beside Adams, the Soul Master troops belonging to the Eye of Hurris stood on both sides like wings, Stephanie's eyes widened, and she muttered, "Father..."

Adams didn't say anything more, he stepped forward, stood side by side with Stephanie, and whispered "Your Majesty, I'm late" Stephanie's eyes were red, and tears were about to fall, Adams didn't look back, and said, "The Empress can't bow her head" Stephanie clenched her fists tightly, holding back her tears, she took a step forward, stood at the very edge of the city wall, raised a fist, and shouted with all her strength "For Corvo!"

Countless soldiers under the city walls raised a fist at the same time, exclaiming with all their strength, "For Corvo!" Barnett raised his sword and shouted, "Charge!"

After that, the last of Corvo's army never looked back, colliding with the boundless demon.
