Heroes of the Invincible Knight

   Chapter 481 King and Secret Order

   "Moriel, how are you, do you think Dragon Breath has a chance?"

In the past few days, Richard, either with Duke Ross, or with Moriel and Natalis by himself, has inspected the overall defense of Dragon's Breath, and has a deeper understanding of the defense of Dragon's Breath. Judging from Li Cha's fairly good military literacy, the line of defense is very complete, but it still can't stop the attack of the orcs.

However, when it comes to the ability to lead troops, if Li Cha does not cheat, he can only be considered qualified. To be able to achieve this level is already considered to be Li Cha’s talent and intelligence, while Moriel can be regarded as a real military expert, so Li Cha can be regarded as qualified. After Chazai made his own judgment, he wanted to hear Morril's conclusion again.

   It's just that the always arrogant Moriel didn't have any way to keep the Dragon's Breath, just shook her head and said:

   "You can only try to delay it. This dragon's breath pass is unstoppable. When things can't be done, I hope the adults will withdraw decisively."

"Um"

   "Unfortunately, if the Western Frontier Army were stronger, they would still have the strength to fight."

   "The Western Frontier Army is really good."

"Just in terms of combat literacy and will to fight, this army is no worse than Erathia's Royal Guard Corps, and it is more well-trained than any army in the dungeon, but unfortunately their personal strength is common. On par with the cavemen."

Moriel's evaluation of the Western Frontier Army can be said to be very high, but it can also be said to be very low. Comparing the Western Frontier Army with Erathia's Royal Guard Corps is definitely an affirmation of the Western Frontier Army. The Imperial Guard Corps is not the kind of soldiers who stand guard in the capital.

   It was the ace army that Catherine personally formed after the Erathia crisis. Catherine personally led the expedition to the mainland, and forced the Erathia Building to collapse. It was definitely the army that all the forces on the Erathia continent were talking about.

Moriel said that the tactical literacy and fighting will of the Western Frontier Army are not weaker than those of Erathia's Royal Guard Corps, which is naturally a great affirmation of the Western Frontier Army, but the fighting literacy and fighting will alone cannot fully represent the combat effectiveness and individual strength. The strength of the army will also greatly affect the combat effectiveness of the army.

  Although the fighting literacy and fighting will of the Western Frontier Army are not weaker than Erathia's ace corps, its combat effectiveness is different from Erathia's guard corps.

Erathia's Guard Corps was based on a large number of spearmen, halberdiers and marksmen, with backbones such as swordsmen and crusades. There was an independent champion knight regiment, and even the angel regiment was mixed. And the great knights in the Western Army are rare, and their individual strength is too poor.

The combat strength of the ordinary soldiers of the Western Border Army is similar to that of the cavemen in the dungeon. The cavemen are basically the weakest first-order soldiers in the world of Heroes and Invincible. They are a bit unqualified to say that they are cannon fodder. , cavemen even sometimes become backup rations for other high-level creatures.

  In the case that the individual combat strength is not much different from that of the cavemen, no matter how strong the Western Frontier Army has the combat quality and fighting will, it is impossible to match the Guards of Erathia.

   "What do you think is the optimal solution?"

"If I were to command, the Dragon's Breath Pass would definitely have to be defended, but it couldn't be defended. The Western Frontier Army was mostly cavalry. It would be too wasteful to put them on the city wall to fight attrition. After the orcs break through the buffer zone of the defense line, we will find an opportunity to make a surprise attack. After we succeed, we will leave, and we will not care about the defense of Longxi Pass. Behind us is the Central Plain, and hundreds of thousands of cavalry are scattered on the Great Plain to flow and fight. It's definitely more trouble for the orcs than in this Dragon's Breath."

   "This is to make Duke Ross give up the Dragon's Breath."

   "Dragon's Breath Pass could not have been kept."

  …

   "Lord Richard, Duke Ross asked you to rush back to the council hall in the main city immediately."

   Just as Richard and Moriel continued to discuss the defense of the Dragon's Breath Pass, a messenger came to Richard and respectfully conveyed Duke Ross' order to Richard.

   "Huh? Do you know what happened?"

   Seeing the messengers rushing to recall him back to the main city's council hall, Richard was a little puzzled. He had just left and he had no plans for a military meeting today. Why was Ross in such a hurry to call him back? Did something happen?

   "It seems that the messenger from the capital has arrived. I need you to come along with me to read out some orders."

   "The messenger of the royal capital?"

  …

   "Your Excellency Richard has arrived."

  After the messenger announced the news, he returned to the main city without further delay. At this time, there were several horses parked by the door of the council hall.

   The messenger who came from the capital this time was not pretentious at all. In order to be in a hurry, he didn't even ride in a carriage, and he rode along with a few entourage.

  Richard didn't think much, and walked into the council hall with Moriel and Natalis. The surrounding guards respectfully gave way, and even Moriel and Natalis were very familiar with the guards.

They were also in awe of the two beautiful ladies who followed Li Cha at any time. After all, there were many defeated soldiers who came back, and many of them had seen the strength of Moriel and Natalis. After a long time, the news became a little better. Everyone knows that the two female generals who follow Li Cha at any time are strong enough to fight the dragon alone.

   "Your Excellency Richard is finally here. Let me introduce to you. This is the messenger from the capital, Lord Popodia."

   There were not many people in the council room. Most of the people inside Richard were familiar with him. Except for Duke Ross and several senior generals, there was only one unfamiliar face.

A tall, beardless man was standing beside Duke Ross. Although he was wearing a strong warrior outfit, he still couldn't hide his feminine temperament. The weathered generals are particularly conspicuous in comparison.

Li Cha could see the identity of the other party almost at a glance. The messenger of the order was an internal official in the palace. If ordinary nobles and officials saw this kind of internal official, they would probably be a little pleased, but when it came to Duke Ross and Richard After this level, these internal officials are just ordinary messengers in their eyes, and the kingdom's valet and the like are of little significance to them.

  Li Cha just nodded as a greeting.

   "Lord Richard is young and promising, and at such a young age he has become a big hero in the hearts of the people of the kingdom..."

   This internal official named Popodia did not dare to be dissatisfied with Richard's casual attitude, but took the initiative to chat with Richard, which was completely different from the attitude of indifference when facing other nobles all the way.

   Obviously this internal official is also a smart person, and he sees the gap between his own status and that of Richard very clearly.

   After a few perfunctory sentences, Richard did not want to waste time listening to people touting himself, but took the initiative to ask:

   "I don't know what will the messenger brought to the Dragon's Breath Pass with His Majesty Ren?"

  Pobodia took out a piece of high-quality kraft paper, which was covered with words. Although Li Cha was far away, he could see that it seemed to be an order for a reward.

"Lord Richard, Your Majesty thinks that you and the Duke of Ross have made great achievements, and decided to promote you, the Duke of Ross, and Lord Thor to the title of the king. After entering the palace, you can ride horses, you don't have to hand in weapons, and you don't have to stand up during court meetings. , I have also prepared a place for you in the hall."

The surrounding generals all showed surprised expressions. The highest title of the kingdom is the duke, and the prince is really unheard of. Even at the beginning of the founding of the country, the hero is only the duke at most. In a sense, the prince is That is, on an equal footing with the king, where would the Golden Dragon Kingdom be easily awarded.

On the other side, Duke Ross had a tangled look on his face. He didn't know why the king wanted to improve his title. If he could, he didn't want it. With his status, the so-called prince and duke was just a false name. It's just that, without any substantial benefit, carrying the burden of a famous scenic spot will only make him more stressed.

   But when Li Cha heard it, my dear, isn't this just a copy of the sword walking to the palace, not following the court, and not worshipping the name? I am afraid that no one who has this treatment in ancient and modern times has a good death.

   But Li Cha was not worried about this at all, and what made him even more concerned was the prompt sound that suddenly came from his consciousness.

   "You have been recognized by Cloud City..."

  When Richard got the kraft paper that canonized him as the king, the recognition of Cloud City also followed.

  Li Cha found the construction page in his consciousness, and the cloud city construction option, which had been gray, turned green. Without any hesitation, Li Cha directly chose to build the cloud city.

   Cloud City is no different than other buildings. This biological lair that can produce top-level troops angels is not on the ground, but in the air.

At this time, the sky of Miracle City in the Northland, which is thousands of miles away, suddenly changed, and large white clouds converged over the megalithic fort at the core of the city. There seemed to be a dragon absorbing water above the megalithic fort, which gathered the surrounding white clouds and smashed them into pieces. Slowly spread out, and then a golden palace appeared above the clouds, and a dwelling of the gods appeared in the sky above the city of miracles.

Unlike in the game, the cloud city in the game seems to occupy a small area of ​​the screen, which is inconspicuous, but in reality the area of ​​the cloud city is close to the size of a boulder castle, even if it is hung a few hundred meters high. The sky is also very conspicuous.

The vision in the air has long caught the attention of the residents in the City of Miracles. Many people noticed the scene in mid-air when the clouds changed. At this time, when they saw a palace appearing out of thin air, they were shocked. son.

"what is that?"

   "Look, there is a palace above the clouds?"

   "Is it an illusion? I heard from the merchants from the south that they occasionally saw cities appearing out of thin air at sea, and when they approached, they found that there was nothing there."

   In addition to amazement and speculation, some people also tried to explain the existence of Cloud City from a reasonable perspective.

   And the pot in the city lord's mansion also exploded at this time. A group of people stood on the open space of the castle, looking up at the mid-air cloud city at a 90-degree angle. The leader was Viscount Sot.

   "There really is a palace on it!"

   "Big Brother! There won't be any problems with this palace, do you want to enter a state of combat readiness?"

   After observing for a while, no other anomalies were found, but the sudden appearance of a palace in the air was the biggest anomaly, enough to make everyone alert.

It's just that Viscount Sutter lowered his head~www.readwn.com~ but found something different. In the surprised crowd, some people seemed a little out of place. Calm down, they didn't even have the slightest curiosity about the palace that suddenly appeared in the air.

   "Knight Zebble, do you know what that is in the sky?"

   Viscount Sot did not issue an order for combat readiness for the time being, but asked Zebble tentatively.

   Unexpectedly, Zebble calmly said a bunch of words that he didn't quite understand.

   "It's Cloud City. In the future, our city will also have an army of angels. Lord Richard's subordinates have become stronger and stronger."

  Well, don't be on guard. Although most of them didn't understand, Viscount Sauter still understood the last sentence. These are all things that his precious son made.

After    had a bottom line in his heart, Viscount Sauter turned around and ordered:

   "It's not a big deal, it's all done by that kid Richard. Send someone to Miracle City to maintain order, don't let some ulterior motives take the opportunity to disrupt the order."

"yes, Sir!"

  …
