It's Lori Hannah from the witch Defia.

Faced with the invitation from Lori Hannah, Tang Ning smiled.

Dancing with this girl, he preferred to agree to Raven Defia, who had already invited him.

"Sorry, I've already been invited. ”

Downing Stewart reached out and took Raven Defiah's hand and walked to the dance floor, deliberately looking for a less conspicuous place on the dance floor.

He is not very good at dancing, so he can only be at the mercy of Raven Defiah, and his unfamiliar movements have touched the people who are dancing on the side several times.

Raven Defia was excited, and she put her arms around the young king's neck, carefully admiring the face with only one eyebrow, a moment she had always dreamed of.

She didn't know that her dance partner was thinking about another woman.

His wife, Sonia Hero, the face has always been haunting his mind, and Downing's beating heart is absent-minded.

When he crawled out of the grave again and returned home, the house was empty, and he unilaterally believed that his wife must have died, and at that time he made this judgment because he did not know the existence of the refuge, and thought that almost everyone was dead, and no one was spared.

But now that she knows the existence of the Vault, maybe Sonia Helo was lucky enough to escape, and then she is now struggling to survive in a shelter with terrible living conditions.

This possibility could not be ruled out, so he refused to marry a new queen.

Unless one day he knows the exact news that Sonia Helo is dead.

And Lori Hannah, who had been rejected earlier, was looking at the man and woman on the dance floor with a frown.

"Sister Lori, it seems that he already has a sweetheart, let's find something else. ”

Elizabeth comforted her neglected companions, and her eyes were fixed on the young king, who was dancing lamely with the girl around her on the dance floor.

At this moment, her heart is also a little lost, but also a little excited.

Excitedly, the young king refused Lori Hannah's invitation, because she wanted to come over and invite her after noticing the young king in the crowd for the first time, but she didn't expect that after reminding Lori Hannah, Lori Hannah would invite the other party to dance.

Disappointed, after rejecting Lori Hannah, the young king agreed to another witch's invitation instead of waiting for her to invite.

Compared with Lori Hannah, Elizabeth is not so stubborn and wants to change her goal and temporarily drive away the loss in her heart.

Facing the reminder of her companion, Lori Hannah clenched her fists fiercely and said angrily: "I'm not interested, now ...... We leave. ”

Downing was relieved to notice Lori Hannah and Elizabeth leaving, and let go of Raven Defiah when his goal was achieved.

"I'm sorry, I'm a little tired, go back and rest first, you continue, I wish you found the object of your choice. ”

Hearing this, Raven Defia's expression flashed with pain, and she finally understood that His Majesty had promised her to dance not because she had a crush on her, but to avoid Lori Hannah and Elizabeth.

After coming back to his senses, he forced out a smile and nodded.

"I'm also going to leave, there is still some work to be done, and I will go back to work overtime. ”

Downing left the banquet hall with Raven Defia, and as the two left, some of the people in the banquet hall who noticed the king immediately exchanged ears.

"See, His Majesty has a sweetheart, and it shouldn't be long before our federal empire will have a queen. ”

"That witch, I remember, was the one who made the gates of the Federal Empire, and was almost killed, but fortunately she was still alive, otherwise there would be no queen in the future. ”

"In my heart, the witch is good-looking, and worthy of the position of queen. ”

From then on, this gossip began to spread throughout the Federal Empire, and everyone except the young king and the witch herself knew about it.

The members of the Federal Imperial Cabinet also heard some rumors, and Fran, as the Prime Minister of the Cabinet, immediately summoned all the cabinet members to hold a secret cabinet meeting, and then began to secretly plan some things.

......

A few days later, the night of the full moon came.

The battle plan officially began.

All the members of the guard, as well as some of the bailiffs, as well as the witches assigned to the various combat teams, began to enter the palace on the ground and stood by in their planned positions.

Before leaving, the Federal Empire held a simple pre-war ceremony.

After attending the ceremony, Downing also left the Federal Empire and entered the old palace on the ground.

But his actions were immediately opposed by almost all cabinet members.

"Your Majesty, leave the battle to Holman and Grant, you just need to wait here for the results, you are too important to the Federal Empire, if something goes wrong, the Federal Empire will collapse. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, Grant and I are able to complete the operational command mission, and there is no need for you to risk it. ”

Holman looked serious and unquestionable.

Downing went to join the battle, he had his own considerations, looked at the anxious cabinet members, and motioned for everyone to be quiet.

"Of course I believe that you can complete the combat mission, but I must participate in this battle, and the plan to fight the monsters is made by me, if I hide underground, the people who are not very optimistic about this battle will think that I sent the members of the guard to death, which will cause more pressure on public opinion. ”

As a person who came here in later generations, he knows very well how important the popular approval rating of the people is to govern a country, and if the public opinion falls to the bottom, it will be more deadly than those monsters.

After a pause, he went on to state his reasons for participating in the battle.

"I don't go to the fight, except for the popular pressure, the soldiers who are out there will think that I have no confidence in the plan themselves, they are sent to die, which will seriously affect the self-confidence of the soldiers, and then the morale of the troops, but if I am there, the situation is completely different. ”

When the soldiers left before, Tang Ning had specially observed, and many of the soldiers under their helmets had pale faces and worried expressions, and they did not have much confidence in this battle.

Morale is so important for a fight.

After convincing the crowd, Downing set off with Holman and Grant, as well as Fran, Master Merlin, and some supernatural power owners.

Seeing the king go in person, the people who had been criticizing it were immediately excited.

"Long live the king...... Long live the king......"

Step out of the Federal Empire, the sky outside is dark, and night is coming!

All the way to the palace, Tang Ning's arrival made the originally silent palace immediately lively.

The morale of the soldiers, who had been depressed, was immediately high.

"Look, His Majesty is here, and we will be able to win this war, otherwise His Majesty will never be here. ”

"That's right, brothers, take heart and trust His Majesty, for he has never made a mistake and will not be this time. “

Morale is high and everyone is infected.

Inside the palace, Downing stood on the high platform of the city wall where the old king had spoken to the people, gazing at the night sky, which was getting darker, and prayed inwardly.

"We must win!"

At this time, two figures appeared behind.

It's Lori Hannah and Elizabeth.

Lori Hannah looked at the young king's back and frowned.

"I thought you'd shrink back into the Federal Empire and wait for the outcome of this battle?"

Tang Ning turned around and smiled helplessly.

"Am I so unbearable in my heart? People will always change, and you need to keep pace with the times when you look at people. ”

Before the words fell, a guard wearing the second generation of obsidian armor walked over.

"Your Majesty, look. ”

......

The moon is high in the sky.

At night, some monsters began to appear on the streets, and the monsters let out a dull roar.

With the roar, monsters from all directions came out of nowhere and began to gather in a certain direction, near the entrance of the Federal Empire.

The number is also increasing.

Three ......

10 ......

Fifty ......

500 ......

1,000 ......

When the number reached about 1,000, the number of monsters that came out from all directions decreased, and the final number was fixed at about 1,300, gathering near the entrance of the Federation Empire, as if holding a rally.

The roars came and went.

Tang Ning's expression was serious, it seems that the number of monsters here is about that much!

Then he looked back at the guards.

"Tell Holman and Grant to start according to the previous battle plan. ”

The guards departed, and Downing looked at Lori Hannah and Elizabeth again.

"You stay here, it's dangerous down there. ”

Lori Hannah didn't think so, and she gave the young king a blank look.

"Coward, I've got to go and fight side by side with my sisters, you stay here. ”

Lori Hannah and Elizabeth left together.

Tang Ning shook his head helplessly, now is a large-scale battle, but it is not child's play, these witches do not listen to orders, and something will happen when the time comes.

Coming back to his senses, he reminded the guards.

"Let's go too, follow these two witches, and avoid any accidents to them. ”

The guards immediately stopped.

"Your Majesty, General Holman told us that we have to stay here with you. ”

Tang Ning pushed away the guards in front of him and walked straight down the steps to the outside of the palace, he had to be present in this battle, observing more details and weaknesses of the monsters.

......

Holman and Grant ordered, and the soldiers left the palace in a squad mode and began to maneuver quickly in the direction where the monsters gathered.

The Obsidian Warframe II has great mobility and is extremely fast.

Quickly moving near the city walls, most of the soldiers went directly to the walls of the city of Barbis.

At the same time, some of the commandos ventured to the crops near the entrance to the Federal Empire to ambush and watch the monster hordes not far away.

The leader of the assault team stood up after observing for a while and quickly pulled the trigger.

The muzzle of the M16 made of obsidian emits bright flames, and the enchanted obsidian bullets fly out, hitting the nearest monster.

Next Second......

"Boom"

The monster exploded in an instant, blown to pieces!, affecting several monsters on the side, and the monsters were overturned, letting out a roar of pain.

Obsidian itself is packed with great powers, and with the addition of enchantments, it can be more powerful than a grenade when it hits a target.

And the huge gunfire immediately attracted the monsters, and a large number of monsters rushed towards the commando team who had just shot like a torrent.

The members of the assault team immediately moved towards the wall where the guards had gathered.

It has to be said that the speed of the monster is really amazing, the commando members are running wildly, and the distance between the two is constantly shrinking.

300 m ......

200 m ......

100 m ......

50 m ......

By the time the distance reached fifty meters, the assault team had reached the bottom of the city walls.

The rope was lowered on the wall, and the commandos climbed along the rope.

At the same time, Holman gave the order to fight.

"Attack. ”

For a moment, the members of the guards lined up at the top of the city wall rained bullets wildly at the monster horde.

In the dark night, bullet trajectories were clearly visible, and raindrops flew into the hordes of monsters rushing towards the city walls.

Soon after, the monster exploded wildly, setting off wave after wave of shockwaves, and a large number of monsters flew with flesh and blood, screaming and piercing the night sky, which made people tremble.

At this moment, Downing, Lori Hannah, and Elizabeth were also standing on the thirty-meter-high city wall, watching this scene.

The battle had to be geographically advantageous, with the best position being the highest point of the city of Babis, and the ability to have a wide field of sight for up to 8,000 soldiers to shoot out.

The palace is undoubtedly the tallest, but the palace buildings are lined up one after another, with different heights, and the view is not very good, and there are only a few places suitable for shooting.

Therefore, the commanding heights in the battle plan were finally selected for the outer city walls!

Now it seems that the location is indeed perfect, with more than 2,000 soldiers capable of launching simultaneous attacks.

The number of monsters with more than a thousand is decreasing!

But the shooting speed of this firearm of M16 is not too fast, and the suppression power is insufficient, and the monster is strengthened and the speed is amazing because of the full moon night, so the distance between the monster and the city wall is constantly approaching.

At this moment, the front line of the monster was only 30 meters away from the city wall.

And the number of monsters is close to more than 800.

If this continues, the number of monsters under the city walls should be reduced to 600, and then the white-knuckle battle will begin, and the white-edged battle is the time to truly test the combat effectiveness of the second generation of the obsidian battle armor.

At that moment, a scream pierced the night.

The group of monsters that had been charging suddenly turned around and fled.

Seeing this scene, Holman didn't know where to run from and excitedly reported.

"Your Majesty, we won, ours really won, we repelled the monsters. ”

Lori Hannah and Elizabeth were also stunned, they didn't know about the second generation of the Obsidian Warframe before, because they didn't have an intuitive combat experience.

It was only after I saw the long-range attack power of this armor that I realized that this young king dared to take the initiative to attack monsters, not without a purpose, but with confidence.

Now the monster is really repelled.

The rest of the witches had the same idea, looking at the shocking scene in front of them.

The soldiers on the city walls cheered wildly, and now their morale was at its peak, and their fear of monsters was lost because of the situation in front of them.

"Your Majesty, we can take advantage of the victory and pursue and destroy all the monsters. ”

But Tang Ning had a different opinion! His eyes were deep, and he looked at the place where the scream came from in the distance.
