Start a Core Pod

  Chapter 462 Choice

  After listening to Black Swan's report, Kriolev didn't speak for a long time.

   "...Is this the message that man left for me?"

   "That's right, what he said is very clear. Whether to say it is his business, whether to pass it on is my business, and whether to listen to it is your business."

  Black Swan nodded slightly.

   "I see, you go down."

   Kriolev sighed for a long time, waved his hands, and the latter saluted, then turned and left. Kriolev turned his head and looked out of the camp, with a look of pain in his eyes.

  Escape... eh?

   As Herman's most prestigious general, Kriolev certainly understood that something was wrong with this country. After the death of the previous king, the dispute over the succession between Princess Sheila and Prince Barton has not stopped. He just kept silent at the time, but deep down, Kriolev hoped that Prince Barton could grow up and become a qualified king.

  But what he didn't expect was that Prince Barton, who couldn't bear the pressure, chose to join forces with the demons and attack Lisas, and was eventually defeated and killed.

   In this way, Princess Sheila became the emperor as a matter of course—became the puppet of those people.

  He still remembered that he had met two people before. At that time, they were both very cute children. But good luck tricks people, no one would have thought that it would eventually come to where it is today. Frankly speaking, Kriolev didn't know whether he should do this. He knew some inside stories about the royal family, and he also knew that the relationship between the Queen Mother Pamela and Prime Minister Steather was unclear, but as a warrior, He didn't think he should meddle in politics.

  In Kriolev's view, this is just a cross-border violation.

  But Duanmu Huai told him that he was just running away.

  Perhaps, that man is right. I have been ignoring this and obeying the council's orders like a puppet. I am afraid that I want to ignore this subconsciously. But...is this really okay?

   Isn’t this a betrayal of the former emperor’s expectations?

  Herman right now, does he have to experience destruction in the end?

   Once Kriolev thought that he should die with this old Herman as the last burial.

but now………

"Um?"

   Just when Kriolev was hesitating in his heart, he suddenly heard a loud noise from outside the tent, which made him frown involuntarily. And at this moment, his adjutant Karl also walked into the camp.

   "Report your lord, the second army is coming!"

"So fast?"

   Hearing the adjutant's report, Kriolev was somewhat surprised.

   "Who is leading the team? Is it General Aliteres?"

"no……"

"it's me."

  However, before Carl could finish his sentence, he saw a person striding into the tent. It was a short, fat man with blond hair and glasses, and he stared at Kriolev with a wicked smile on his face.

   "Hello, General Kriolev, Second Army Adjutant Kombat led the Second Army's reinforcements to report. Oh, by the way, here is the latest order from the council."

  The latest order from the council?

  Hearing this, Kriolev's expression became more serious. He stretched out his hand, took the letter from Kombat, opened it, read it carefully, and then fell silent.

"………grown ups?"

   Seemingly sensing some kind of ominous premonition from Kriolev's silence, Karl hurriedly asked, and at this moment, Kombat answered his question triumphantly.

   "According to the order of the council, I will be the commander-in-chief of this coalition force. Do you have any objections, General Kriolev?"

"What?!"

  Hearing this answer, Karl stared at Kombat dumbfounded, unable to imagine that the council would issue such an order.

   After all, Kombat is just an adjutant, not a general. In terms of positions, even if you want to change people, you can only choose from the generals of the Second Army and the Fifth Army. It is impossible for an adjutant of the Second Army to be the commander of the entire coalition army!

  But... logically speaking, it's different.

  Carl knew that Kryolev and the council had always been at odds with each other. They had failed several times in a row in the past few days. It was obvious that the council no longer trusted General Kryolev. Although Kombat is an adjutant, but judging by his arrogant appearance, one can imagine that this guy definitely made some kind of deal with the Council in private. Thinking about it carefully, after all, among the three legions, the first army, the second army and the fifth army The relationship between the general and the council is not very good. On the contrary, only the adjutant of the second army is regarded as a guy who likes to follow others and likes to exploit... If he is in trouble with the council, it is not completely impossible.

   "The Council is very dissatisfied with the results of the First Army."

   Sure enough, Kombat quickly became arrogant.

"The council asked us to capture the target alive at all costs, and your first army, with 40,000 people, couldn't even take down a mere Bonn fortress, which disappointed the council. Therefore, Prime Minister Steather ordered me to command the first army at the same time. And the second army, we must break through Bonn Fortress before the opponent's steel giant arrives!"

   Speaking of this, Kombat clenched his fists excitedly.

   "This time, I will personally direct!"

   To put it bluntly, Kombat is indeed qualified to despise Kriolev.

  It is true that the First Legion is the trump card division in Herman's country, but in terms of combat experience, the Second Legion, which has been fighting demons at the border all year round, is obviously richer. For the Second Army, as long as it can win, any means can be tolerated. This is also where Kombat looked down on Kriolev. He felt that this stubborn old man was too stubborn. In this era, chivalry and combat rules are no longer important, as long as he can win!

   Soon, the next morning, Kombat excitedly launched another attack on Fort Bonn.

   And this time, the one who made the move was...

   "It's time to show you how amazing Elsa is today!"

  Standing on the city wall, facing the army in front of her, the blond girl in luxurious aristocratic attire did not waver at all.

   "To be able to witness the magic of Ben Elsa with your own eyes, you don't know how many lifetimes it is a blessing—then, let's start!"

While speaking, Elsa reached out her hand and took out a crystal chessboard from her backpack, suspended in the air, and then her palm gently stroked over it, and the next moment, huge chess pieces suddenly fell from the sky , fell in front of Herman's army, as if it was a formation of chess pieces ready to go!

   "Come on, fantasy soldier!"

  Accompanied by Elsa's order, these soldier chess pieces, which were almost as high as the city wall and held long swords, rushed forward jumping forward, and launched an attack on the enemy in front of them!

   "This, what the **** is this?!"

  Seeing these strange chess pieces, Kombat was also taken aback, but soon he calmed down and quickly issued an order.

   "Quick, quick attack! Smash these pieces into pieces!"

   Following Kangbat's order, the soldiers of the Hermann Legion also drew their long swords and rushed towards the huge chess piece in front of them. For a moment, the two sides fought into a group, and saw the soldiers chess pieces raised their long swords high, and then swung them down vigorously, sweeping across the battlefield. Wherever they went, Herman's soldiers also flew up one after another, screaming and flying out. .

  However, when these Herman soldiers were about to attack, they found that their eyes were blurred, and then one by one chess pieces that seemed to be walking fortresses blocked in front of them.

   "Guard my soldiers, Fantasy Castle!"

   Taking another step forward, Elsa raised her hand.

   "Call the soldiers, Mystic Queen!"

   "————!"

Following Elsa's order, I saw a chess piece holding a scepter at the back raised the scepter in his hand, and then, fantasy soldier chess pieces fell from the sky and landed on the ground, and then they also took up their weapons , Attacking the enemy in front!

   "Don't stop, smash for me, smash these **** pieces!"

At this moment, Kombat was also furious, but fortunately, although these chess pieces were quite powerful, they were not many in number. After hundreds of sacrifices, Herman's army finally defeated most of the chess pieces .

"boom!"

  As the last chess piece fell to the ground, shattered and shattered, the obstacles in front of him seemed to have completely disappeared. Seeing this, Kangbat's eyes turned red, almost seeing the hope of victory.

   "Very good, give me a rush——!"

   "That's stupid."

  Looking at the Herman soldiers rushing over again, Elsa grinned.

   "This genius lady's strategy is perfect, you are no match at all, the ultimate king of the chessboard! Come here and win!"

   "Boom!!"

  Accompanied by Elsa's call, a king's chess piece that was even taller than Bonn Fortress and wearing a crown suddenly fell from the sky, directly blocking Herman's army. At the same time, behind it, dozens of soldiers and knight chess pieces also fell down and entered the battlefield again.

how come?

  Looking at the more chess pieces than before, Soldiers Herman and Kombat were all stunned. They never expected that the opponent's magic was so weird and terrifying! You must know that those chess pieces are not easy to deal with. Even the experienced Herman Second Army spent a lot of effort and losses to wipe out all the previous chess pieces.

  But now it seems... Was that just a prelude?

   "In this way, you will be a general!"

  Looking at the pale Herman soldier in front of her eyes, Elsa raised her hand triumphantly.

   "Get ready to accept the final fiasco! In front of this talented lady, you don't have the slightest chance of escaping!"
