Journey to the Wizarding World

Chapter 50 Betrayal
In the room filled with the smell of medicine, several castle doctors ran back and forth.

A comatose man was lying on the hospital bed. His burly body was covered with bandages, and he was motionless. Only the slightly heaving chest proved that he was still alive. Enzo stood quietly by the side, looking at the hospital bed and frowning slightly.

Enzo could hardly believe he was still alive when rangers on patrol brought the badly wounded O'Quinn back from the forest.

His left eye was completely necrotic, scars of all sizes spread all over his body, and a sword wound on his chest almost hurt his heart. Even with the tenacious vitality of the great knight, it is still a miracle that O'Quinn survived.

"How long will it take for father to wake up?" Enzo said quietly, and asked the doctor in the room.

"I'm afraid I can't be sure about this." The head doctor replied cautiously.

After being brought back to Kaiyuan by the rangers, the doctors in the castle worked tirelessly for two days and nights to treat O'Quinn, and finally brought him back to the arms of death, but no one knew when he would wake up .

Enzo didn't speak any more, but frowned deeper.

"Do your best to treat my father. If he wakes up, please notify me in time." After a while, he sighed slightly, gave instructions to the chief physician, and turned to leave the room.

As soon as Enzo walked out of the room, he saw a figure walking towards him.

"Any more news, Clarence."

It was Clarence who came. After these days of cultivation, his injuries have basically healed, and after taking the potion prepared by Enzo, his fighting spirit also showed signs of recovery.

"Yes, master." Clarence said solemnly, "The scouts just sent back the news that three hours ago, the Sky Knight Philip led the Black Crow City army to attack Iron Horn City, and now it has occupied it."

"Did Iron Horn City really fall?" Enzo murmured, his expression didn't change much, and he was already mentally prepared for the fall of Iron Horn City.

After Philip defeated Kaiyuan's coalition forces, Black Crow City had been destroyed by flames. He needed a main city as his base, so Iron Horn City, which was the closest and without the guards of great knights, was naturally the best choice.

"Then what should we do next?" Clarence asked after hesitating for a moment.

"Order the towns to strengthen their defenses, and recall all the patrolling rangers." Enzo thought with his eyes, and said slowly, "Philip just took down Iron Horn City, so he shouldn't make any big moves recently, just be careful."

It had long been expected that the Black Crow City army would attack Iron Horn City, so Enzo had already prepared himself.

A day before, he had sent a letter to Iron Horn City, ordering the defenders to burn the food and grass in the city on the spot. Even if Philip took Iron Horn City, what he got was just an empty shell.

Without enough reserves of military rations, Philip would not be able to start another war in the short term.

This will not only ensure the safety of the Golden City and Giant Wolf City, but also allow Kaiyuan City to have a period of recuperation.

"Okay! I'll pass on your order now." Clarence nodded slightly, hammered his chest with his fist, and turned to leave.

Seeing Clarence walking away, Enzo also turned and returned to the room.

"After the Black Crow Army captured Iron Horn City, it will take at least a month to recuperate." Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Enzo pondered, "After this period is over, Philip will definitely start another war, and before that , I must have the strength to fight against it!"

"Sky Knight? Let's see how strong you are!" Enzo was eager to try.

The current situation on the ice field is very clear. After the pattern of the coexistence of five cities was broken, Black Crow City and Kaiyuan City fought in separate divisions. It is completely impossible for the two to coexist until today. Perhaps after the next war, victory The winner will become the only ruler of the cold plain.

"For the next time, just improve your strength as much as possible." Enzo closed his eyes and gradually entered a state of meditation.

Before I knew it, another two days had passed.

During this period of time, the castle doctors tried their best, but they still couldn't wake up the unconscious O'Quinn. Enzo could only meditate to accumulate magic power, while spending energy to maintain the order of Kaiyuan City.

In the evening of this day, Enzo had just finished his daily meditation and was about to have dinner.

Suddenly there was a hasty knock on the door, and Enzo couldn't help frowning slightly. He just raised his head when he saw the door was pushed open, and Clarence walked in with an ugly expression.

"What's the matter? Clarence." Enzo asked a little strangely.

"The Giant Wolf City has fallen, Master Enzo." Clarence's face was gloomy, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he broke the bad news.

"The Giant Wolf City was breached? How is this possible!?" Enzo was a little surprised, and said in amazement, "The Black Crow City army did it? Philip just captured Iron Horn City two days ago, how could there be enough food and grass to start another war?" ?”

"It's the Golden City!" Clarence gritted his teeth and said with a sullen face, "The Golden City provided Philip with enough rations to help the Black Crow City army capture the Giant Wolf City. Now Lord Tyrone has withdrawn with the remnants of the army. Kayeon."

"Golden City?" Enzo's face suddenly became ugly.

"Yes, master!" Clarence said in a solemn voice, "The scouts just sent back news that the young lord of the Golden City, Rocassie, was assassinated last night, and his uncle Rodrik succeeded him as the city lord. The superior then cleaned Roblei's lineage, swore allegiance to Black Crow City, and provided Philip with a large amount of military rations."

"Rocaxi was assassinated?" Enzo frowned.

"Yes, the news has been confirmed." Clarence paused, and then said, "It should be Rodri's hand. Maybe this guy became betrayed after Lord O'Quinn's defeat, and he had long been with Black Crow City. Secret collusion."

"What's the situation in Giant Wolf City?" Enzo thought for a moment, then asked again.

"After Philip broke through the gate of the Giant Wolf City, Lord Tyron knew that he was powerless to resist the army of Black Crow City, so he ordered the retreat in time." Clarence said, "The loss of the army is not serious, and after Philip took the Giant Wolf City, he also No further pursuit."

"It's okay." Enzo sighed, his eyes thinking slightly.

The fall of Giant Wolf City broke Kaiyuan City's recuperation plan, and the betrayal of Golden City made matters worse. In just a few days, Kaiyuan City, which had almost conquered the cold plain, now had only one base camp left.

"By the way, is Harris of the Golden City dead?" Enzo suddenly remembered an old friend.

"No, he's still alive." Clarence shook his head and said, "Due to the strangeness of Rocassie's death, Rodri didn't get everyone's support after he came to power. It is said that the Golden City is currently divided into two factions. As Roblei's loyal party, Harris took control of the city guards of the Golden City in time after Rocassie's death, and fought against Rodriguez!"

"Moreover, Harris also sent a message that he hopes that Kaiyuan City will escort Miss Luo Lisi back to the Golden City to preside over the overall situation, because according to the tradition of the Golden Family, only Luo Lisi with the orthodox bloodline is the legal heir of the Golden City!"

"Oh? Is that so?" Enzo's eyes flickered, and he murmured, "It seems that I need to go to the Golden City."
