On the Seven Towers

"It seems you still don't understand the situation." Gerardo said, when Augusto interrupted him, "Either get out or die. Is this a difficult choice?"

Hearing these words, the knights of Green Forest City present suddenly changed their colors, but Angelo was calmer than before. He drew out his long sword, stretched the tip of the sword forward, and said: "Your Excellency Augusto, it's time for you to I have said what I have to say, and I have given what is due. But the soldiers of the Duke's family have their own dignity. If the Shadow Group really wants to push us to this point, we can only fight hard."

As soon as he finished speaking, the knights behind him all drew their weapons.

Augusto slowly drew out his sword, and he was ready to teach the man in front of him a profound lesson.

However, at this moment, there was a breath that made his heart move from the first carriage. It felt like a tiger meeting a lion. He gripped his sword tightly and stood still without making any further movements.

The door of the carriage was opened, and two people stepped out. One of them is a middle-aged man in his fifties, with a strong body and gray hair. He is wearing a magic armor and has a long sword hanging on his waist. He has a powerful look as he looks around. The person who followed him out of the car was a woman in her forties. She was not pretty, but looked a little old. She was not wearing armor, but was wearing a robe, and she was holding a particularly narrow long sword in her hand.

Augusto frowned when he saw these two people. It was obvious that the situation in front of him was beyond his expectation.

The middle-aged man who got out of the car took a few steps forward and said to Augusto from a distance: "Your Excellency Augusto, you are really impressive. These people under me all come from small families, but why don't they just fall for you?" Are you shocked? Look, everyone has their swords drawn out. Is this a fight between allies? "

"Duke Parsa, I didn't expect to see you here, is it really beyond my expectation?" Augusto lowered the sword in his hand and looked at the Duke of Green Forest City with squinted eyes.

"It seems that the Shadow Group is not as omniscient as some people claim?" Duke Parsa glanced at Gerardo, "Since it is not omniscient, it is reasonable for there to be some errors in the intelligence, right? "

"I don't know, why did the Duke appear here?" Augusto did not give him a chance to ridicule Gerardo.

"Amelia and I want to go out for a walk. The air in towns is always better than that in cities, isn't it?" Duke Parsa said.

"Master Amelia. I haven't seen you for a long time. I have always admired your swordsmanship. It seems that you have improved again." No matter how arrogant Augusto is, he must maintain enough respect for another master.

Amelia was obviously a taciturn person. She only nodded slightly and said nothing.

Augusto said: "I thought His Excellency the Duke should be in charge of the overall situation in Green Forest City now. I didn't expect you to be so leisurely. Aren't you afraid that the Chinese will take this opportunity to launch an attack?"

"Of course I know what the Chinese want to do. Let them slowly occupy Green Forest City. I am just the first one to leave, and many others will follow." Duke Parsa said.

When the Duke said these words, even Augusto was moved. He said subconsciously: "You are simply crazy. How could you give up such a big city to others like this? Green Forest City has a city defense barrier and a city defense army. You also have a master to assist you, and you even have several masters among your vassals, but you just gave up like this? "

"What is the level of the Chinese army and how powerful are their weapons? No one in the entire kingdom knows better than me. I have suffered enough defeats at their hands. If you think my decision is not smart enough, it only means that you Too stupid. You are not the first or the last person to look down on the Chinese. Only when you fail shamefully will you know that I am the only one who made the right choice."

Augusto shook his head and said: "This shouldn't be my concern. What I want has been said before. No matter you show up or not, the person the Nature Temple wants to arrest cannot be let go." of."

Duke Parsa said: "I have always been very direct. I don't need to fight hard against an enemy I can't win, otherwise I will only lose my ability to make a comeback. But I won't fight easily against an enemy who can give me a fight." It’s better to surrender and fight to the death than to let these guys who are similar to me crawl on my head to shit.”

"Do you really want to go against the Temple of Nature?" Augusto asked.

"Of course not. I went here this time to ask for help from Mr. Roland, the chief priest of the Royal Capital of the Temple of Nature. I have always been a believer in the God of Nature, and the Temple of Nature is my strongest support. Mr. Roland has no regard for my position and person. My character is very clear and I will not let others judge me.

I think you should accept the offering Angelo mentioned before with peace of mind. I will not stay in the area for a long time in the future, and there will not be many opportunities for the two of us to interact. "

Augusto did not answer, but looked at him coldly, as if considering the meaning of his words. The two parties were just deadlocked there.

Ackley and the others who were lying in ambush were extremely surprised when they saw the Duke's sudden appearance and heard what he said.

"I didn't expect the Duke of Greenwood City to have such a clear understanding of his own strength. I didn't expect that he, who is said to be extremely brave, would actually make the choice to retreat secretly." Ackley said, "If he doesn't leave, , what awaits him is inevitable defeat. "

"Anyway, this is still a cowardly act. If I want to retreat, I will definitely not be the first to leave, but choose to be the last one to leave." Anar said.

"Does that mean that if we capture the Duke of Greenwood City here, most of the battle in Greenwood City will be resolved?" Glade asked.

"That's right, so I think we have another target today." Ackley said, "However, the woman next to him should be on the same level as Augusto. I'm afraid that the strength is not enough for the three of us to deal with the Duke?"

"As long as they fight, it's fine, but they are still hesitating." Anar said.

"Then let me give them a push." ​​Clyde turned into an earring and flew out of the woods. He flew very low-key close to the ground, using obstacles to avoid the sight of those people, and sneaked behind a Greenwood City magic knight. He did not show his human form, and at a very fast speed, he released a fireball behind the knight. The fireball dragged the tail flame and smashed into the team of the Shadow Group that blocked the retreat without deviation.
