The Original Vampire
Chapter 590: rise up
Winter City, Lion's Roar Fort.
The burning fireplace drives away the chill of early spring and fills the entire study with a warm atmosphere.
Vera leaned lazily on the sofa, flipping through an old parchment book in her hands, wearing a simple nightdress, her long snow-white legs stretched out from the slits of the skirt, It swayed gently in midair.
After a while, Wei Lai picked up the coffee cup on the table, only to find that the cup was empty at some point.
She pulled a thin wire next to the sofa, and could faintly hear the bell ringing.
Immediately, the maid's respectful voice sounded outside the door:
"Lord Duke, what do you need?"
"Pour me a cup of coffee."
"Okay, please wait."
Soon, the maid pushed the door with a tray and entered.
Vera buried her head in the parchment book in her hand, and did not pay attention to the maid who came in.
But the next second, she was startled by a bang.
When he looked up, he saw that the maid had fallen to the ground, and all the coffee was spilled on the expensive wool carpet.
"Molly? What's the matter with you?" Vera thought that the maid just accidentally fell, but after waiting for a while, she realized that it was not good when the other party did not respond to her question.
Vera immediately put down the parchment and walked up quickly.
I saw that the maid had passed out on the ground, her face was blue and her breathing was weak.
"Someone!" Vera hurriedly called out the door.
Amidst the rapid footsteps, a team of guards rushed over immediately.
"Lord Duke..."
As soon as the leading guard entered the door, he fell to the ground, just like Molly's reaction.
Vera was taken aback, and before she could regain her senses, she heard a few more falls.
The several guards who came in later all fell to the ground one by one, as if there was something in the room that made them lose consciousness...
"Don't come in yet!" Vera immediately stopped loudly, "There is a problem with this study!"
The guard outside the door stopped and shouted anxiously, "Lord Duke, please leave the study first!"
Vera stood still, but looked around, as if trying to find out what the problem was.
When the guards saw this, they were so anxious that they kept shouting and begging Vera to come out first.
"I'm fine." Vera replied, "I'm afraid this thing won't work for me..."
Speaking of which, Vera suddenly remembered that Colin had told herself that she is now an apostle of the favored one.
Poisonous?
Vera immediately realized that the air in the room might be poisonous!
That's why all the maids and guards who came in were poisoned and passed out, and she stayed in the room for so long, but she was still safe.
So, what is the source of the poison?
You must know that this is the core area of Lion Roar Castle. It is heavily guarded. How could someone poison this study?
unless…
Vera's eyes wandered, and she finally stopped at the oil painting of "Knight Slaughtering the White Wolf" hanging above the fireplace.
This was a gift to the Saint Hilde family when the troll emperor Okamoto visited last time. Of course Vera could understand the meaning implied by the painting, and also knew that this was a letter of nomination from Okamoto to the Saint Hilde family. , so it was specially hung in the study, a relatively private, but not absolutely secret place.
Just this painting...
Vera stared at the long sword in the knight's hand, and the blood dripping from the tip of the sword had leaked out of the painting...
—————
Outside the Troll King City, the low sound of horns echoed in the wind and snow, flags of various colors fluttered in the air, and dense troll soldiers gathered from all directions to form a mighty army formation.
At a glance, this army is afraid that there are more than 100,000 people.
But if you look closely, you will find that this is actually an army with only its appearance.
There are not many strong young trolls among the soldiers. Instead, there are more middle-aged trolls who are older or even disabled. They look like veterans who have been re-recruited after being discharged from the army. In addition, there are many others. There are no grown-up teenage trolls.
The equipment on their bodies is also quite shabby, and the styles of weapons are not uniform. At first glance, they are all pieced together. As for the armor, it is even worse. Except for some officers who can have leather armor, most ordinary soldiers don't mention leather armor. Well, even military uniforms may not be available.
Such an army with shabby equipment, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, is not bad, and even has an indomitable and majestic meaning.
The news that the paladin Prince Otto and the White Wolf Witch King Squinn went to the Holy Mountain to assassinate Colin Angele had spread throughout the Troll Empire at a very fast speed under the deliberate guidance of Okamoto.
A pinnacle of martial arts, a religious leader, the sacrifice of these two pivotal figures in the troll empire brought a great shock to the hearts of all trolls.
It also made them finally understand that their race has come to the most critical moment.
But it is also at such a critical moment that unprecedented unity has emerged within the troll empire.
woo-
The bugle sound changed to a loud tune, then came to an abrupt end.
The trolls suddenly quieted down and looked at the temporary high platform in front of them with bright eyes.
There was a stake on the high platform, and on it, the queen of the troll empire was tied—
Nora St Hilde.
She was only wearing a thin palace dress, and she was completely unconscious from the cold, but she still looked at her husband who was facing away from her with hatred.
"Sorry... Nora..."
Okamoto said softly, he didn't look back, maybe he didn't dare to face his wife's burning eyes.
"Okamoto, you can't succeed! The North will never succumb to trolls...ho-ho..."
Chi!
A silver light flashed.
Nora's throat was cut with blood.
Okamoto was holding a **** long sword, his body was shaking constantly, and he didn't know whether it was out of guilt or excitement.
Prince Abbas next to him gave Okamoto a surprised look, his lips moved, as if he wanted to say something.
In the original plan, they wanted to burn the Saint Hilde woman alive to strengthen their determination to invade the south. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com
But now, Okamoto actually killed this woman ahead of time - compared to burning alive, slitting her throat is too merciful.
"Ignite!" Okamoto roared and ordered.
puff!
The stake was lit, and the raging flames quickly covered Nora's body under the agitation of the cold wind.
Okamoto still didn't look back, but slowly swept the army gathered in front of him with firm and cold eyes.
"The warriors of the troll clan!
The paladin Prince Otto and the White Wolf Witch King Squinn have already prepared the ground for us with their lives. Now, it is our turn to use our lives to earn that glimmer of hope for the troll empire!
I can't guarantee that this expedition will be victorious, but I can guarantee that as long as there is a breath left, it will never stop going south! "
With a hoarse voice, Okamoto roared with all his strength:
"Let's go!"
