Chapter 123: Interlude
In the snowfield on the outskirts of the royal capital, outside the cave where Einstein left, a loud shout broke the silence of the night.
"Drink!"
Reinhardt swung the sword in his hand, not fighting, but practicing empty swinging.
"Drink!!"
With sword after sword, Reinhardt did not let up as if he were preparing for the next battle, and the truth is that Reinhardt was preparing for battle, against his former colleagues and comrades.
"Is that really going to draw them in?"
Eminem, who was warm and energetic on the side, was a little uneasy, and when Khiva and General Khiva's generals were preparing to fight with Khiva's warriors, not only did they think about it, but Eminem felt that even his own brain was very circulating, otherwise he would not agree to this kind of request, which was already considered crazy.
Reinhardt stopped waving, not caring about the image, and wiped the fine sweat from his forehead with his palm.
"Originally, it was planned that I would send the signal, but in consideration of the possible emergency, I took a precautionary measure and installed a manually triggered device here. β
Einstein gave up his influence on surveillance magic after he left, and when the magicians who had built the entire surveillance system were still feeling helpless because of the unexpected situation in their eyes, Reinhardt sent even worse bad news to the poor magicians.
'I will sabotage the king's plans, and you can see this as a rebellion, or you can send someone to suppress it.' These were Reinhardt's words, and then he used his injured privileges to destroy the entire magic as a group of magicians looked stunned.
"After all, you don't have to be so decisive at all, isn't that deliberately making our position worse?"
In fact, Eminem didn't seem to use an adjective like 'resolute', and if it weren't for Reinhardt's status, he would have said 'begging' and 'under-beating'.
"There's no room for manoeuvre between us now...... β
Eminem couldn't help but feel desolate, lamenting that he might not be able to return home alive.
The harsh reality can't help but make Eminem not lament. Even if he fought alongside the strongest warriors of the human race, he was not confident that he would be able to fight seven in and seven out of the Khiva army with just two people.
Reinhardt knew what Eminem was thinking, and he smiled generously at it. Eminem at least retains the courage to take on a country as an opponent, and just whining is much better than many talented young men Reinhardt has ever seen.
"Even if I don't say it that much, they will do it to the best of their ability, and the situation is so tense right now. β
Reinhardt hid his smile. Said seriously to Eminem.
"And what we need to face is not really the whole country, right now the king's plan is at a critical juncture, as long as the royal capital is not completely successful, no one dares to show the plan, and the royal capital is ...... Hehe. β
Speaking of the back, Reinhardt smiled happily.
Eminem knew what Reinhardt was laughing at, because Einstein was on the royal capital's side.
Seriously, Eminem had never seen a more powerful and feared opponent than Einstein in his life, and at the same time, there was no more reassuring ally than Einstein, even if he knew that the enemy was a demon. Eminem also had a hard time imagining Einstein losing.
Eminem lamented again.
"After all, what kind of conspiracy are you hatching here?"
This is basically a clear telling Reinhardt that he has a lot of complaints, and the problem that can be regarded as espionage shows Eminem's mood very appropriately.
Eminem originally just wanted to satirize Reinhardt and King Lilbourne, who were really good at finding death, but he didn't expect Reinhardt to answer Eminem's question after a little thought.
"I don't know if you noticed that it was only civilians who gathered in the stadium, and all the officials from their own countries and other countries were not there. β
Eminem was surprised and sat down honestly, listening to Reinhardt.
"All foreign guests of status were placed in a better venue. It was better located and was accompanied only by a few elected Khiva officials. The most important thing is that there is a hidden magic array there, and when it receives the signal, it will kill all the people inside. β
Perhaps he had decided to obstruct it, so Reinhardt's voice revealed a sad lightness, but Eminem was not at ease.
"Thisβthat's what ....... β
"If those dignitaries from various countries die all at once, it will undoubtedly cause a huge blow to the entire human world. At the same time, it will also cause a world-wide war. β
Reinhardt summed it up for Eminem.
"That's right, that's what King Lear intended. β
Eminem stammered, swallowed the sentence back into his stomach, and changed the subject.
"Why are you telling me this?"
Because Reinhardt was too open and honest, Eminem began to feel anxious for Reinhardt. This is already a secret that can determine the survival of a country, and it is impossible for Reinhardt, as a general, not to understand it.
Reinhardt winked at Eminem, the kind of action that should have been done to the opposite sex was a little more funny and playful for Reinhardt.
"If we fail, let's not say whether we can survive or not, and even if we survive, you don't need to publicize it, if we succeed, compared to a country, personal testimony is still not strong. β
Whether it is testimony or evidence, even if the facts happen in front of you, it is not enough to threaten a country, and the only thing that can really subvert a country is force, as long as there is no threat of force from other countries, even if King Lilburne says that he is a demon, it doesn't matter.
"Besides, as long as he can survive this catastrophe, Khiva also has his own means of self-preservation. β
"Okay....... β
It's really a sharp enough reason, Eminem can't find fault at all, but this completely loses the tragic sense of life and death of comrades-in-arms who believe in each other without reservation.
"Well, don't say so much, our guests have arrived. β
Lowering his voice, Reinhardt looked around with sharp eyes.
Knowing that it was discovered, the people around it were no longer hiding, and after a sparse sound, a total of more than fifty people stood out from the shadows.
Whether it's their tall physique or their adaptation to the environment, the group is clearly from Khiva, but not enough to be called an army, but there are a bit of too many contestants, and when you think about it, Eminem positions them as 'killers from Khiva'.
"Greetings, General Tolstoy. β
One of the killers stepped forward, looking like the leader.
"I have heard that you have betrayed the king and the country, but I think there must be some misunderstanding here, and if you can explain it, we will deal with it at our discretion. β
After all, Reinhardt is the strongest and admired hero in Khiva, even if you don't look at his status and only look at his merits, it is enough to be admired, so the killer leader is still like persuading Reinhardt to change his mind.
Reinhardt was very pleased with the kind words and persuasion of the killer leader, even after such a change, it still did not make the warriors of Shiva abandon their humanity and heart, but unfortunately the conflict of beliefs between the two sides has reached the point where they cannot back down.
"I also recently discovered that I am not as determined as I thought, I am not going to argue about who is right and who is wrong, it is an indisputable fact that I betrayed my royal family as a courtier, but even if it is disloyal to the lord, I will carry out my faith!"
With that, Reinhardt raised his sword in front of him and read it word by word.
"Secret Technique - . β
The magic patterns on his body were completely liberated, and the irascible magic frantically flowed into Reinhardt's body, his hair became hard and spread like a lion, his skin gradually turned red, his muscles bulged high, his body swelled up like a balloon that had been blown in, and even the armor on his body was deformed by the bulging muscles, falling to the ground one by one.
In the blink of an eye, the heroic general turned into a tall crimson demon, and the sharp sword seemed so small in his hand.
There was a fierce light in his eyes that he chose to devour, but Reinhardt's rationality was not affected.
"I am ashamed of my trust in the king and do not deserve the title of "King Sword", but Shiva's strongest power is not fake, so you can enjoy the martial arts of the heroes, rest assured, I will not kill you. β
Reinhardt slowly raised the long sword in his hand, as if he was deliberately revealing a flaw.
The leader of the killer did not dare to be careless in the face of the famous Reinhardt, he glanced at his subordinates, and everyone saw this flaw and surrounded and killed. (To be continued.) )
