Parallel Army - The Sound of the Turning Tide Chapter 21: When the Wedding Is in Progress
Falgeni thought that Ronan might move at night, so he planned to go to the coast to see before going to bed. He told Shiz that the elves would also go with him in the future, and she would not feel at ease being alone.
Fageni and Hitz walked to the beach one after another, and then saw a mermaid with a red tail sitting on a reef in the distance in the sea, looking at the moon, ignoring the crispy figure that was only covered by a seaweed and two shells.
The chest, the snow-white skin bathed in the moonlight and the golden wavy hair are as beautiful as the bubbles of disillusionment.
As if aware of the two people's gaze, the mermaid jumped into the water with a splash.
"It's a mermaid, where's the sea tribe?" Hitz looked at her with envy.
"Ahem, um." Fageni looked around, then walked on the coast to see if there were any abnormal signs. However, how could he find anything so easily.
There was nothing else to gain after that, and the two of them didn't do anything to suit the atmosphere, so they went back to sleep. When they entered the city the next day, they learned that they had missed the wedding, and finally met Alexander at the hotel...
And Chester woke Alexander up before dawn at five o'clock and told her that two of the four nobles of the Bakator Kingdom had arrived in Copenhagen from the Eye Islands.
"Ah?" Alexander turned over and quickly packed his equipment. "Have Fagni and the others come back?"
Chester told Alexander what he had seen. The Duke's Palace must have prepared everything last night, so the steam battleship arrived early for the wedding, so the compressed part of the wedding schedule was resumed.
First, from the Duke's Palace, the escorts and honor guards from both sides took Princess Baini, who had used the transformation spell, to the church of the Goddess of the Dawn. After receiving the bishop's blessing, she then returned to the Duke's Palace to hold the second half of the wedding ceremony.
In other words, we must now go outside the Duke's Palace in case of emergency. Fageni and Heath will not mention it for the time being. Alexander no longer has time to wait for them to come back. "Well... let's go there first, if Ronan wants to do it.
If anything, it's now." Alexander ran outside. "It's best that nothing happens to Fageni and Xizi."
Just in case, the Nagas have been on duty all night, and the spacious streets, which are usually clean and empty of pedestrians, are already overcrowded.
Countless citizens of Copenhagen were blocked by a human wall of human soldiers, leaving a gap for the honor guard to advance.
The mermaid maids participating in the honor guard also activated rings made by Phantom Bei that can generate illusions and scrolls of levitation. Just in case, each Naga was also issued one.
In the final stage of preparation, the captain of the Naga Guard found Kanas. "I have been informed by humans that there may be special creatures attacking on the way back from the human church. If this happens, you will
Bring a few brothers to the rear, and the wedding must not be interrupted."
"News from humans? They just let us be attacked? Are there special creatures that will attack us? Do you know what they are?" Kanas asked.
"Using the wedding itself as a bait to catch all the people you plan to deal with, isn't it very in line with human cunning? Of course the wedding will go ahead as scheduled, after all, they will not give up the deal with the sea tribe. That creature is called unclean by them
I don't know much about this kind of creature, but it won't be very powerful. You can rest assured about that. I have this for you." The captain of the guard handed over a bracelet.
"Ha, give up the honor that comes to you, you weak and scaleless one." Kanas' hand with sharp claws struck the fine gold handle, and he hugged his shoulders and let out a scornful laugh.
"This bracelet made of stone can effectively fight those things called unclean creatures. If there are a group of them, it might be very troublesome," the captain said.
"I can indeed feel a warm breath. I think it will come in handy." The incantation on the Kanas scabbard kept blinking and fading as the magic power circulated.
Not long after, Princess Bai Ni had put on a human white wedding dress and came to the avenue outside the Duke's Palace. Apart from anything else, in terms of clothing, humans are more creative than the sea people, even if you look at it with a critical eye.
, this white gauze dress can bring out the beauty of Princess Bai Ni.
Now, Princess Baini's temperament has reached an extreme level and can attract the eyes of anyone of the opposite sex. This is already some kind of supernatural power.
When Alexander arrived, she didn't have a good seat and could only watch from the outermost edge. Fortunately, Alexander's height prevented her from standing on tiptoes to see.
The princess's beauty was unparalleled. Kanas stood at his post, scanning the guests with falcon-like eyes, wary of all suspicious factors, but it had to be said that the frequency with which he looked around the princess was even considered wary.
Too high.
After Alexander took a look at the situation at the scene, he immediately began to scan the crowd of onlookers, targeting suspicious individuals.
After the whole team set off, Kanas, who was at the end of the escort, naturally saw Alexander, who was a head taller than the others, constantly scanning his eyes outside the crowd.
After seeing Kanas, Alexander waved his hand gently as a greeting, and then continued to scan the crowd while moving in the direction of the team.
Kanas glanced at the human female mercenary he had seen before with a scrutinizing gaze, and nodded slightly as a response, thinking about the purpose of this powerful warrior.
The honor guard at the front activated a water attribute spell, and the entire street was shrouded in a layer of extremely light water mist. However, this water mist did not wet clothes or remove foundation at all. It only gave people a cool feeling and strengthened the illusion.
Some details that cannot be concealed.
As the water mist unfolded, Kanas let out a satisfying groan, and his already huge body became faintly larger.
Alexander looked at the water mist and wondered if his lightning arrows would be more lethal in this environment.
In addition, there are many performances that are not fancy at all, but can very well reflect the commonalities between the two cultures. People follow the team and watch outside the crowd of human soldiers.
In addition to the crowd, Alexander also paid attention to the interior of surrounding buildings and high places to avoid snipers.
Just when he was about to enter the Church of the Goddess of Dawn, Alexander suddenly felt sore in his eyes. He saw a man emerging from a shop across the street. Alexander clearly remembered his appearance. It was Bishop Ronan.
"Be careful! There is an assassin!" Alexander was in a good position and could not easily injure the onlookers. Her reckless backhand was to shoot an arrow at Ronan's foot.
Alexander's shouts and sudden attack frightened the people around him. The arrow passed through Ronan and was forced to turn by a bursting bubble, almost completely penetrating the wooden partition of the building nearby. The crowd and soldiers began to commotion.
"Is it an illusion?" Alexander stayed still and continued to glance around. Ronan must have made follow-up moves.
Some human soldiers passed through the frightened crowd, crowded in the direction of Alexander and shouted for her to put down her weapons. But the team was still moving forward steadily, not interrupted by this sudden accident. The wall of soldiers on the street
There was no movement at all, so the crowd dispersed without any impact on the team.
Because he was on the outside, if Alexander turned around and ran away, the soldiers would definitely not be able to catch up.
"Tch." Alexander decided not to bother explaining to them for the time being. He ran further away and found a building with a wide view to climb up and take a look.
The team arrived at the church smoothly, and nothing happened after that. It was just an expected episode. Alexander also walked around in a circle to the church, found a wall, climbed up and squatted on the roof.
The location of Kanas is on the left side of the church door just after entering. There is Duke Lelen who has been standing here waiting for a long time, but Alexander can't see it here.
Duke Lelen's haggard look today was regained by the necessary makeup and general's attire to regain his original handsome face. Although the two nobles knew that he was trying to cheer up, they didn't say anything.
After the first half of the wedding ceremony held by the chief priest, Princess Baini accepted the archbishop's blessing with a happy face - the light of God's grace penetrated the colorful glass and hit Princess Baini in a soft way, exuding
A breath of life.
After the exclamations of believers and ordinary citizens outside the church who were lucky enough to witness this scene because of the good angle, the team began to return.
After Kanas saw that the princess had safely completed the first half of the wedding, his frown slowly relaxed due to the previous commotion. On the way back, he frowned and glanced at her with a look like "Where are your hair?"
Alexander was well hidden and prepared for the return trip.
When they were about to reach an intersection at the Duke's Palace, as the Naga Guard Captain said, some slate floor tiles suddenly shattered, and the rotting sea people and human zombies attacked from below towards the human wall composed of human soldiers, and the human wall was because of
There was a gap where soldiers had to draw their swords or raise their guns to fight.
"As expected." Kanas muttered in a low voice, unsheathed his weapon, held the battle line, and cleared these unclean creatures in an orderly manner according to the preset formation.
"Tsk, you're a bastard that attracts attention." Alexander, who had no means of group attack, gasped and landed steadily on the next roof. She frowned and looked away from the zombies, scanning around. Ronan must still be there.
There is a backup plan.
Former Bishop Ronan suddenly appeared again deep in an alley, leaving a meaningful smile on Alexander who was moving on the roof, and then ran away in the direction of the sea.
"Why is this lunatic smiling at me?" Alexander stared at this Ronan, lest he was also a fake. This time it didn't look like a body made of water, and the hem of the white priest's clothes was still stained with mud. So she was no longer hiding her body.
Shape and catch up at full speed.
On the other side, as Naga and the soldiers fought together, the zombie attack was quickly suppressed, and the princess and Duke Lailen also entered the Duke's Palace. The wedding was successfully completed.
