However, the mournful wailing of the double-headed lava dragon below quickly brought Elaine back to her senses. The double-headed lava dragon's battle regardless of consumption suffered bad results. Both its magic power and physical strength came to an end. Taking turns to attack, he was covered in blood and fell down shaking.
"They're coming again."
"Eileen, how do you think Miss Fia will deal with so many monsters?"
Suddenly, Friede asked softly.
Elaine frowned her non-existent eyebrows, her eyes were only filled with the monster running towards the city wall again, Fried's calm attitude made her feel anxious.
"How do I know, I think she is just too young and arrogant, and she doesn't know what a hundred thousand monsters are!"
"But she is the one chosen by Mrs. Witch, and the expression on her face when she leaves is not aimless. I have a hunch that she is about to succeed—whether to replace Thanatos to obtain the ownership of King Yan's followers, or to use other methods how to manipulate monsters?"
Friede's assumption stunned Elaine, who was burning with anxiety. Friede was right. If you don't want to destroy these hundreds of thousands of monsters, but try to get King Yan Ownership of followers can also protect the city of Bourne. She never thought that there was such a solution.
She asked in a difficult tone.
"What do you think?"
"I don't know..." Fried frowned and lowered her head, biting her lips lightly, "but if Miss Fia is really successful, no matter what Miss Fia herself says, she must be the one to be guided, and I will follow her .”
"She hasn't brought you any benefits yet. Only when she actually brings you to the front of the stage can I believe that the guided ones can change the Witch Palace."
"But isn't what we are doing now just an opportunity to stand in front of the stage? When will the witches swarm to help humans defend the city? After this time, even if people don't immediately send us smiling faces, the world's evaluation of us will be different." will turn around."
"We are just buying time for Her Excellency Fia. You are thinking too much. She didn't mean to let you defend the city to gain fame for you, but without us, the city wall cannot be defended. Those sea urchins are coming again, don't stand Nonsense here!"
The enchanted blade appeared in Elaine's hand, and she re-entered the fighting state, but Friede was still stubbornly arguing with Elaine.
"The fact is that the darkborn who attacked you and the core is dead! I asked from the escaped witch that the darkborn and his subordinates were so difficult that they almost wiped out your group. It was the guide who helped you escape. Come out, this is enough to show that Miss Fei Ya's strength is far above ours, and it may not even be an ordinary seventh rank!"
"But what does it have to do with letting us buy her time? Does she not need our help to defend the city, and she can clean up the monsters here by herself, and go to the desert to get back the command of the monster army? Open What a joke! These are hundreds of thousands of monsters, not ordinary tens of thousands, sober up, only Miracle Witch can do all of this!"
laugh--
The moment Elaine's voice fell, the distant night sky lit up without warning.
what is that?
There was no need for verbal communication. Elaine and Friede had this question in their hearts at the same time. They both looked in the direction of the flashing light, which was the hinterland of the desert and the place where Fia disappeared.
The light piercing the night sky was not just for a moment. When the light sphere on the earth expanded and spread at an extremely fast speed, a pillar of white light like a pillar of creation shot straight into the sky. At this moment, even the moon was eclipsed, and the earth seemed to be A second sun appeared.The strong flashes illuminated the sand dunes and the grass and trees on the ground together, and Elaine and the two could even clearly see the blood of the monsters flowing around them and the shadows formed by the battlements on the city wall.
Immediately afterwards, an extremely intense burning pain swept across Friede's eyeballs in an instant, and Friede closed his eyes subconsciously, but after only a moment passed, Fried stubbornly looked at the light source again, at the desert near the explosion point, because There, a shock wave sweeping across the entire land along the horizon is roaring towards Bourne City with stormy wind and yellow sand.
Under the blazing light, the tsunami formed by the sand was so clear and shocking that even Elaine, who had the sixth rank, felt insignificant and even fearful in front of the shock wave that covered the sky and the sun.Regardless of trees or man-made objects, everything that stands in front of the shock wave is bent and destroyed at the moment of contact. Even the mighty monsters in the distance are swallowed by the shock wave in the blink of an eye.
Then, the shock wave came in front of the two of them.
The sky, which was so bright just now, suddenly darkened.
The tumbling dust in front of her eyes brought Yi Lian back to her senses.
"Come here, Friede!—"Thick Soil Barrier"!"
One layer at first, and then two layers in succession as if worried. Hiding behind the earth shield the size of a house, Elaine and Friede tensed their bodies. They could clearly hear the sand and rubble colliding like shrapnel. The sound on the earth shield, there is no roar of monsters around, because the sound of monsters has been covered by violent shock waves.
Fortunately, although the shock wave is majestic, it no longer has much power. The sixth-level "Thick Soil Barrier" is intact. Friede and Elaine have not been affected by the slightest bit, while the other witches on the wall, As early as the first time he saw the shock wave, he jumped off the city wall to avoid it.
In the next second, a thunderous boom sounded, but the sound was not as fleeting as the thunder, but a continuous, continuous roar. The ground kept trembling, as if it would crack in the next second, and the air The shock even touched the skin, and the heart was terrified, as if the end was coming, everywhere was darkness that could not be seen, full of wind whistling and thunder.
grunt.
It wasn't the roar of a monster, but the sound of Fried swallowing.
Friede can be sure that they are at least tens of kilometers away from the blazing beam of light with supreme majesty. However, at such a long distance, they are still affected. It is hard to imagine how tragic the center of the explosion will be.
What is this?
Not only Friede, but everyone in this sandstorm had only one thought in their hearts, and some even hid in a corner, praying that the wrath of the gods would pass quickly.
However, Friede is different from ordinary people—not only Friede, but also Elaine. They faintly feel the origin of this "divine punishment", and when they think of that possibility, their hearts tremble uncontrollably .
Fried turned her head to look at Elaine. She didn't have the restraint of a mature woman at all. She opened her mouth wide and her expression was full of disbelief. She tried to say something, but she lost her ability to speak for a while, and she opened her mouth suspiciously after a long time.
"This is... magic?"
"Is there any other possibility besides magic?"
Elaine has no body and cannot swallow her saliva like Friede, but she is also too shocked to be able to control herself. Her sensibility believes that this is the result of being guided, but her rationality keeps emphasizing that this is not a human being at all—no It's just that humans, elves, vampires, astral beasts, and even giant dragons cannot create such terrifying magic. No, this can't be called magic at all, but a complete disaster. No matter where it happens, it is enough to change the situation of the entire region. environment.
This is not a guided person, but the guide itself!Such a grand destruction even the Witch of Hope has never done!
Elaine really wanted to say to Friede, "You are looking for the wrong person, this is not a guided person at all!", but she didn't know how to say it, and she didn't have the courage to say it. After seeing such terrifying magic, who would Dare to fight against this elf?Elaine couldn't imagine why Balor dared to oppose the guided ones, where did these dark descendants have the courage!
For a moment, a thought surged in Elaine's mind.
The future direction of the Witch Hall is already clear.
I was completely wrong, but Friede was completely on the right path. Regardless of whether the elf princess was being guided or not, as long as she approved, it was absolutely right to follow her.
With great difficulty, Elaine spoke slowly.
"If this is really the masterpiece of the guide... Please forgive me, Friede, I take back my previous contempt for the guide. She does have the ability to go to the desert after eliminating the monsters here. She is indeed doing it for yours. Considering my prestige, I am short-sighted and ignorant of current affairs...Compared to us, those who are guided are the real witches..."
"No, Elaine, it's the first time I've seen this magic too..." For some reason, Fried looked at Elaine without joy, but with an extremely complicated expression of confusion about the future. "I'm beginning to wonder what kind of method the Witch of Hope wants to bring us hope... I hope that the Witch has no selfish intentions, you know what I want to say, right?"
Maybe it's the whole world that Hope Witch wants to change.
Coincidentally, this idea came to the minds of Friede and Elaine.
And just when this idea appeared, a crisp voice that the two wanted to hear but didn't want to hear reached their ears.
"Fried, Elaine, what are you talking about? Where are the others?"
Suspended in the air with six-petal wings of light, her long black hair tied into a shawl and double ponytails flutters in the wind. Although there are burnt marks on the edge of the elegant and complicated black dress, it can still highlight the beauty of its owner. The slender waist and the budding chest that outlines the tender curves.
Doubt hangs on the face of the elf princess Allure.
"Are you all right?"
Undamaged, not even out of breath? !
Friede and Elaine looked at each other, then hurriedly answered with downcast eyebrows as if they were afraid of incurring Tianwei if they answered too slowly.
"It's, it's okay. There may be some monsters under the city wall. I will deal with them with Elaine immediately."
"You don't have much magic power, so let me do it. I didn't expect the shock wave to spread so far, and the power was clearly controlled. Fortunately, there were not many people on the city wall, and it didn't take much effort."
Didn't spend much effort...meaning, before getting here, he saved someone by the way?
Fried swallowed again.
"Miss Fei Ya... are you okay? You did that just now?!"
"No problem. It's just that the edge of the skirt is burnt a little. It's not too late to go back and talk about the details. This place is already safe, that's all."
No fatigue could be seen in her expression, and under the shocked gazes of Friede and Elaine, Fiya gently waved her hand and flew straight to the bottom of the city wall.
Chapter 52 Baron Xar's Gratitude
"What does the baron mean... I hope that I can speak well to my father, so that my father will allow the Baron of Kesa to be merged into Silval?"
"I don't mean to order Her Royal Highness the Elder Princess, but I feel that as you, as long as you nod your head, Her Majesty the Elf King will definitely not object. As long as Your Highness the Elder Princess can guarantee that my fief is merged into Silval, it will still be under my jurisdiction. I guarantee that the Baron of Keza will pay ten times the tax paid to the Kingdom of Alfred every year, please."
Lowering his head deeply, Baron Keza asked very sincerely.
It was the morning of the third day after the defense battle, and Baron Keza was visiting Fia.
The reason why he didn't come to Fia on the second day after the end was because Baron Keza was busy all day yesterday.Thousands of monster corpses piled up in the outskirts and needed manpower to deal with them. It was also necessary to figure out which monsters were killed by witches and which were killed by soldiers. In addition, a large number of exiled nobles came to Baron Keza in person and asked what happened to the explosion. Who did it made Baron Keza so busy that Baron Keza himself didn't have time to investigate who caused the explosion, which caused Baron Keza to find Fia now—he only learned about the explosion from the witch yesterday morning Fia did it.
Baron Keza should not have slept much these two days, and there are quite heavy dark circles on his eyes. Fia, who was quietly observing Baron Keza, withdrew her gaze. Unlike when meeting with Thanatos, Baron Keza did not wear that suit today. Arabian-style clothing, but a style similar to the dress on Fia, with complicated and gorgeous decorations.
This dress is to show the sincerity of joining Silival. Fia can probably guess what Baron Keza is thinking. She picked up the hot tea on the table and waved to Anastasia beside her, signaling that Anastasia does not have to wait Standing next to him, he smiled and said to Baron Keza.
"Why does the baron think so? Father has his own ideas, so I can't interfere at will."
Here, I promised to let Baron Kesa join Hillival. If something happened to Baron Keza later, the responsibility would fall on me, and I didn't want to add trouble.
Baron Keza's expression froze, but he quickly explained with a look of sudden understanding.
"Her Royal Highness may think the number 'ten times' is too exaggerated, and think I'm joking, but there is no false element in my words. The Alfred Kingdom's understanding of the Kesa Land is still 70 years before the arrival of King Yan. At that time, the Keza Land was indeed poor and backward, and it was a barren land, but there was no kingdom inspection in the past 70 years. My grandfather and father worked hard for two generations. It’s just a conservative figure, if there is a good year, I promise to pay twelve times the current tax.”
No, no, it's not the question of ten times and twelve times, it's because I don't want to care about it at all. Now just one Renee's organization and the Witch Hall—now renamed the Witch Temple, is enough for me to have a headache, let alone adding another one .
Helping Baron Kesa to join Silviar is indeed a great achievement for expanding the territory of the Elven Empire, and Baron Keza will definitely join the faction represented by himself, the eldest princess, by default afterwards, but all this is too troublesome and he doesn't need it.
As for why Baron Keza found himself at this busy and desperation moment, besides originally wanting to merge into the elf collar, the rest is that he already knew that the shocking explosion a few days ago was made by himself. With someone with terrifying energy as your backing, no matter what happens, you can sleep peacefully.
Playing with the teacup in her hand, Fia thought about ways to politely reject Baron Kesa.
Liti, who was sitting next to Fia, took the opportunity to quietly raise her hand, her expression and behavior did not appear to be escaping as usual, but completely in line with the setting of "a kind and petite little princess", she said weakly.
"That... I have a suggestion."
Baron Keza, who had found his savior, quickly took up the conversation.
"Princess Leti, please tell me."
"Father gave Count Reinhardt the task of investigating the value of the Barony of Keza, and Earl Reinhardt gave the task to Vice Captain Renee... In other words, the Royal Father just wanted to know the value of the Barony of Keza. Whether it is valuable or not, it doesn’t matter who investigates it. In that case, if it’s Miss Anna or I report the important and valuable matters of the Baron of Kesa to the royal father, the baron’s fief can also be added to Silval.”
"Uh, this..."
Baron Kesa hesitated, joining Hillival, it is very important to choose the right person to follow, he must choose carefully.He originally planned to ignore 21, get rid of the kingdom first, let himself have a strong umbrella, and then join which faction he thinks has potential, but now the most powerful and potential faction is in front of him , even if he squeezed his head, he had to add it through the relationship of Fia, so that it would be convenient for him to hang out in the palace of Silval in the future.
After all, as long as he said that he joined Heliwal through the eldest princess, the nobles who originally belonged to the eldest princess and tried to curry favor with the eldest princess would acquiesce that they were recognized by the eldest princess, and then shelter and cling to themselves.The eldest princess will not only become the future king, but also have unimaginable strength. With such a big protective umbrella, it will do no harm to the future.
On the contrary, if someone named Prince Xia Yin enters the palace, the situation will be very different. Although the nobles of Prince Xia Yin's faction will protect themselves, correspondingly, the nobles of the eldest princess faction will keep vigilance against themselves, and when the time comes It is undoubtedly more difficult to join.
As for the option of simply assimilating into Prince Xia Yin's faction, no one with a brighter mind would think so.In the view of Baron Kesa, the faction of Prince Xia Yin is already a crumbling rotten tree that will collapse at any time.
As for the choice given by Liti, it looks good, but it is actually disturbing. Baron Keza doesn’t know whether this maid named Anastasia belongs to the eldest princess’s faction or Princess Liti’s faction. Wrong, there will be endless troubles in the future.
As if guessing what Baron Keza was thinking, Liti put her index finger on her chin and said innocently.
"Sister Anna is my sister's personal maid, and I am also my sister's most beloved sister~"
Although the face-changing speed was astonishingly fast, Baron Keza didn't care so much about the matter now. He who was still hesitating a moment ago immediately put his hands on the table and bowed his head deeply.
"If possible, I implore Princess Liti to help convey the news, and I will definitely thank you in the future!"
"Yes...you can."
With an extremely delicate tone, Liti's eyes were timid, her little hands were nervously clasped together, and she agreed like a child.
This guy can act better than a robot.
Fiya was stunned in her heart.Liti agreed, so it was hard for her to say anything else. Baron Keza was considered a good lord except for the problem of style, but in this way, the future risk fell on Liti, and she couldn't understand what Liti was thinking.
"Grateful!"
What happened after that was dizzying.
First of all, in order to increase the success rate, Baron Keza gave a general account of the tax situation of the territory in the past five years, followed by various sources of income, population size, number of soldiers and magic singers in the territory, and even the surrounding countries’ taxation on Keza. Baron Keza explained everything in detail about the attitude of the Baron of Keza and the nobles who had a close relationship with Baron Keza.
Then, of course, once the baron of Kesa declares to join Silval, the consequences that Silval may face.
In the best case, Silviar only needs to pay the Alfred Kingdom a land fee, which is equivalent to buying the Barony of Kesa from the Alfred Kingdom, and the matter will come to an end. The most important thing is that the Kingdom of Alfredg will hold high the banner of human beings, and unite with the Holy Kingdom of Milkandis in the north and the emerging empire in the west to besiege the elves. All aspects will be very bad.
Although the national power of the Alfred Kingdom is weaker than that of the Elven Empire, and the Holy Kingdom of Milkandis in the north was also beaten to death by the Elven Empire, but after all, everyone is not a roundworm in the heart of Alfred King, and no one can predict the final result. What, Baron Kesa can only pray that in the heart of the Alfred Kingdom, his territory is still a barren land. After all, once it loses its importance, the possibility of direct war from the Alfred Kingdom will be greatly reduced. The Elven King nodded is also more likely.
Having said that, once the Baron of Kesa is merged into the elf land, no matter what the actions of the Alfred Kingdom, Silval will definitely send troops to guard it. While Baron Keza is protected by the elves, his own power will also It was weakened, but Baron Keza had no objection to this, and even suggested to Fia that all the soldiers should be used as the city defense army to manage the city's security, and all the military power should be handed over to the elves.
In the opinion of Baron Kesa, he can't be the opponent of Silviar anyway with all his strength, it is better to hand over the mess early, and save the intrigue and expense, and more importantly, the group of Damocles The exiled nobles hanging over his head like a sword will definitely be driven away by the elves, which will serve multiple purposes.
It is worth mentioning that Baron Keza quickly talked about the handover of the territory, and his tone seemed to give up the territory on the spot, but Anastasia stopped at the right time. The Elf King hadn't nodded yet. Now Talking about the handover of the territory is an act of usurpation, which will bring rumors to Fia.
The embarrassed Baron Keza had no choice but to lead the topic to Fia, and asked Fia to confirm whether the explosion was caused by Fia. After receiving an affirmative answer, he first denounced the exiled nobles and those Seeing the adventurer who ran away in distress, he thanked Feiya with full body language. Not only did he let the servants come in to give the rich gift he had prepared in advance, but he also expressed his snot and tears to Feiya on behalf of all Kesa citizens. Ya thanked, if Fiya hadn't realized that the situation was not good and used "Mind Manipulation" to support Baron Keza in time, Baron Keza would have kneeled down in front of Feiya with his knees limp.
The expression of gratitude made Fia wonder if it was to show her loyalty, or if she was really grateful for saving his territory from the hands of monsters. In short, Baron Keza was extremely humble throughout the whole process, without the slightest aristocratic airs.
"Thank you again, Your Royal Highness. Everyone in Bern City will remember this kindness." After Fia expressed her intention to leave the hotel and go elsewhere, Baron Kesa stood up and bowed deeply to Fia. Bow, "It's a pity that the treasure in Kesa's collar is sad for your eyes, and you can't come up with anything that can represent your heart. I am deeply ashamed."
"Master Baron, we can set up a memorial day like Lord Thanatos, and thank Her Royal Highness the princess for saving her life."
The adjutant of Baron Kesa, who came in with his servants, suggested that this adjutant might also be the lover of Baron Kesa, not to mention the plump figure, and the eyes that occasionally look at Baron Kesa are full of love. Of course, her figure is still far away. Far less than Anastasia.
"Oh! Let's do it!" Baron Kesa clasped his hands together, "My little baronial land has welcomed Lord Thanatos and His Royal Highness Princess Princess at the same time. If my father's spirit in heaven knew, he would definitely Hold a ceremony to thank the Lady White Night for your grace!"
No, no... holding grand festivals continuously will affect the lives of normal people, right?And it's fine to celebrate Thanatos, even the identity of "Dofelia" should be included.
Fia slightly imagined the people kneeling by the river and throwing bread into the water shouting "Your Highness Dophelia!" What kind of public execution is this.
She hastily said with a serious expression.
