Chapter 279 132. The Reverse King
“Wow! Wow, wow!”
Annan listened intently to the floating words, but a lot of the information was lost in the wind.
"Do you hear what he is saying clearly?"
Annan asked his solemn companion. When there was no response, he put his hands to his mouth: "I can't hear you!"
The knights in the distance were a little restless and suddenly dispersed.
"You made them angry." said Lilith, who also ran to the city wall.
"They will never charge against the city wall..."
After Annan finished speaking, the knights raised their war spears and charged towards Xingyue Bay.
The thunderous tremors startled a large number of birds, and they rushed towards the city wall with frightening momentum. The recruits knew that they were protected by the impregnable city wall, but they still trembled and could not hold their weapons.
At this moment, no one doubted that this knighthood could wash away a legend to death.
When the knights rushed to a distance of about 300 yards, the knights suddenly moved around to both sides.
"If they knew you didn't even have bows and arrows, how dare you get any closer."
Annan's face was slightly red. Because he was thinking about firearms and large elements, he gave up spending a long time training archers. But the wall prepared for the Skaven was indeed difficult for the knights to chew down.
The Knights regrouped and headed back the way they came.
"They gave up?" Annan asked doubtfully.
"No...that's the direction of the wheat field!" Ingrid hugged the note in her arms tightly: "Annan, we can let fifty large earth elements stop them."
"No, they are luring us out of the city." said the guard captain. "We do nothing."
Annan was not blind enough to think that he was more suitable to command than the captain of the personal guard. Suppressing his unbearability, he allowed thick smoke to rise from the farmland in the distance.
The citizens of Xingyue Bay also saw the rising black smoke. They were only angry at the Knights because of their good life and their trust in the lord.
The burning continues and merges into the lead cloud, dyeing the sunset red.
However, the wheat field burned for about one-fifth and then went out. The knights stopped setting fire after they did not leave the city. They retreated ten miles away from Xingyue Bay and cut down the forest to build a camp.
No one wants a night raid, and the knights who leave their horses are still elite warriors.
This stalemate is destined to last for a while: there is nothing Annan can do against the Knights, and there is nothing the Knights can do against Annan.
The captain of the personal guard transferred half of the elements to the city gate and left the other half on the city wall. Be wary of the knights and the scouts who had sneaked into Breeze City and opened the city gate together.
Twelve white dragons took turns hovering over Xingyue Bay, monitoring the movements of the Knights.
In the Lord's Mansion, Annan activated the talisman and summoned the angry Mr. Swaro.
Annan revealed the troubles in Xingyue Bay before he got angry: "The general leader of the Knights is an epic, and the chief mage is also an epic. I need your protection."
"I don't Time..."
"Help me, Mr. Swaro! I heard that your daughter has been hanging out with a group of nobles recently, and I am willing to help you get her back to the Mage Tower to study..."
< br>
At this time, Mr. Swaro looked up at the stairs:
"Are you here to assassinate Annan?"
...
Invisible shadows lingered in Xingyue Bay.
It surrounded the factory, browsed the library, visited the deserted tavern, marveled at the blue dragon in the lair, and got into the lord's mansion.
"A dark elf..." It glanced at Della in the shadow, not paying attention to the several compound eyes in the cobweb nest of the glass bottle staring at the void spirit body with hatred.
"The barrier is not placed in the lord's room... What secrets are hidden here?" It lingered in a guest room in a novel way, suppressing curiosity.
Magic fluctuations and conversations came from the living room. It floated to the living room again and saw an old acquaintance. "Are you here to assassinate Annan?"
"Shivaro, you actually helped a rebellious lord."
Words rang out from the deserted place.
"Rebellion? You knights are still stuck in your old ways..." Shivaro looked at the void arrogantly, as if looking at a familiar old friend: "What this boy said is true, Rat The human clan is heading north, and he has been reminding the royal capital... Do you want to take refuge with the rat people in arresting him? "
"... Are you telling the truth? "
"Do you think so? Who do I represent?"
"Lord Agarwal..." The spirit whispered a name, "I will convey your words to Galt."
Mr. Schwaro withdrew his gaze.
Annan then asked: "That chief mage?"
"You are lucky, boy." Swaro nodded lightly, "I will help you repel them. "
...
"The people here live and work in peace and contentment, the soldiers are not prepared for war at all, and the Mage Tower is also on the side of the King of the North, Shivaro and I, said Rat. The Ren clan is heading north... Galt, is there any misunderstanding? ”
"You have seen the King's secret order."
"Acting King." said the Chief Mage.
“We are the knights of the kingdom.” The head of the regiment, Galt, said coldly.
"Let me get this straight, Galt. This war is unnecessary. We, the Knights, have been embroiled in a ridiculous political conspiracy. Who knew the acting king wanted to kill him? The enemy, or the secret order written with his butt, maybe he is a rat man in disguise. We will sacrifice more than half of our people because of a wrong order?"
The words of the chief mage until We didn't get a response until early the next morning.
"Knights! Prepare to attack!"
The head of the regiment, Galt, summoned the knights under the disappointed eyes of the chief mage and came to the city wall.
"After I die, withdraw all the knights and interrogate the envoys from the royal capital." The chief mage suddenly heard Galt's whisper: "I am the head of the regiment, and I can only obey the king's orders. Someone is needed for this. Responsible for a war that should not exist."
After speaking, Galt stepped out and raised his spear: "For Montreal!"
"Loyalty!"
< br>
The powerful Knights launched a real attack.
"Prepare spells! Three, two, one, release!"
Earth spells and water spells began to fall. The blue dragon and the white dragon took off, and it and the white dragon wandering on the edge of the battlefield attracted the attention of most horse archers.
On the city wall, the magician in a cloak aimed at the head of the group, Galt, who rushed to the front, and shot out a hidden high-level arcane light.
Galt, who raised his stainless steel shield to resist the magic, seemed to be slow for a moment. In everyone's astonishment, the light penetrated his dark gold armor, and the manic magic power surged left and right in his chest, from It exploded behind him, splattering the knight behind him with blood all over his face.
"Master General!"
The sad cry echoed under the city wall. An epic warrior actually died like this. The next moment, the chief mage's suppressed roar rang out in the battlefield: "The commander of the regiment died in battle. All knights obey my order and leave the battlefield!"
The retreat of the knights was as sudden as the attack, leaving several knights behind. Ten corpses and their hatred.
"There will be lush weeds here next year." Annan's eyes drooped slightly, "All this is due to the stupidity of the royal family."
Ingrid was worried, but Annan let out a sigh of relief.
"Don't worry, I won't be a 'rebellious king'"
