"Hey, what's going on? What happened outside?" The Queen's guards asked inside the shelter gate and received no feedback or response from the Royal Banner Guards. They looked at Her Majesty the Queen, and none of them knew what was going on.
The Queen of Midgard also tried to shout out and ask a few questions, but no one answered them. After waiting for a while, someone anxiously suggested: "Your Majesty, would you like to open the door and see what is happening outside?"
This proposal was immediately opposed by others: "No. What if this is a trap and the enemy is waiting outside for us to open the door ourselves?"
"But if we are trapped here, they will come in sooner or later."
The air was very quiet for a moment, and each other's anxious breathing could be heard.
The Queen thought about it for a long time, and was about to ask someone to open the door, and she might as well die, when she heard another sound coming from outside.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, open the door. It's me."
The queen recognized the voice of the commander of the Second Guards of the Royal Banner, and without hesitation, immediately asked someone to open the door.
The magic seal on the door of the shelter was lifted, and the stone door slowly opened, and the commander of the Wang Banner Guards was seen standing at the door covered in blood.
The commander of the Royal Banner Guards briefly knelt down to salute and then stood up and said, "Your Majesty, someone is here to help us."
The queen was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Who is it? Who is it? Is it the reinforcements from the Storm Country? Or is it from the Rhine Country?"
The guard commander shook his head: "None of them. They didn't say anything. They only said that they would identify themselves only when they see His Majesty. But I saw the armor and attire they wore, they are our sergeants from Midgart."
"Your Majesty, be careful of fraud." The guards reminded me kindly.
The Queen waved her hand to stop her: "Who will come to deceive me at this time? Take me to see them."
The place we went to was not far away, just on the right side of the palace, dozens of meters away from the shelter. It was obvious that the Royal Banner Guards had just repelled a group of enemies here, leaving several corpses on the ground.
After the Queen of Midgard arrived, she immediately saw dozens of unfamiliar new faces in the Royal Banner Army, and most of them were men. The commander of the Royal Banner Guard said to these strangers: "This is His Majesty the King."
These dozens of people immediately gave the Queen a Midgard salute, but did not perform the half-kneeling salute of an officer before a monarch. The Queen no longer cared about this at this time, and only asked: "Are you our soldiers? Which province are you in?"
of?"
One of them, a big man with a bronze sledgehammer on his shoulders, said: "Your Majesty, we are Midgardians, but your subjects."
"Oh!?" The queen was a little surprised, but also heard some displeasure in this man's tone: "Then you are...?"
The big man said: "Your Majesty, have you forgotten that during the time of your ancestors and fathers, there were many heroes and loyal ministers who were expelled from the country for various reasons?"
The Queen's expression couldn't help but change: "You are..."
The big man said with a serious face: "We are the descendants of those who were expelled. Some of these people's ancestors still leave their names and portraits on the wall of heroes below!"
The Queen of Midgard was shocked: "It's...it's you!"
Since the founding of Midgard, there have been years of war, and every time power changes, in order to prevent some people with great military exploits and political dissent from threatening the power of the royal family, these people will always be accused, exiled, or deported.
, it was not until the Rang family came to power that such things became less common.
Such things are common in any country and any royal family. But the queen did not expect that at this time, when the country was on the verge of destruction, their descendants would appear here.
"My name is Cthulhu." After the big man announced himself, he also announced the name of his expelled grandfather. The others also followed suit and announced their names and ancestors one by one.
The queen was very uncomfortable. After hearing their identities, the surrounding guards secretly became very vigilant, fearing that these people would do something radical. The queen calmed down, tried to be more calm, and asked: "You guys
Why are they all here together? Are they here because of the war here?"
Cthulhu said: "Your Majesty, we have been paying attention to the war situation here since the pirates on the west coast invaded Midgard. Although we are in different countries and regions, after contacting each other, we all decided to come back to Midgard together.
Ghat. Although your Majesty’s ancestors betrayed our ancestors, we always remember that we are Midgardians, and the blood of our fathers’ sins has been shed on this land.”
"It's so rude of you to speak to His Majesty like this!" one of the guards yelled angrily.
Before the Queen could stop the people around her, she heard one of these people say: "You are Her Majesty the Queen while the country is still there. If the country is gone, you are nothing."
This was even more rude and even humiliating, but the Queen endured the displeasure in her heart and said: "You are right, without the country, I am nothing. So, are you here to help me?"
"Help you? That's right. We just don't want to see the land that our ancestors built with their lives be destroyed in the hands of a group of bandits!" These people obviously still carry the resentment of their ancestors, but caring about the country is the driving force for them to come here.
"I understand." The queen took a deep breath and asked, "How did you get in? How many people are there? Aren't you surrounded by enemies below?"
Cthulhu said: "We came in during the day disguised as refugees. What you can see now is all of us."
The Wang Banner Guards said worriedly: "You guys can't stop the enemy's army at all."
Cthulhu looked at the Queen's expression: "Your Majesty, are you disappointed? But there are only so many of us. If you think we are useless, then we can leave immediately."
"No, no, no." Although the queen was disappointed, she immediately said: "I am very touched that you can come. I can't explain the old grudges in the past clearly, but..."
Cthulhu interrupted her and said: "Your Majesty, now is not the time to say these words. There are enemies down below rushing to come up and perform meritorious deeds. Don't look at the fact that we only have forty-seven people here, but we still have some skills. Wait for us
Defeat this group of people and escort you away!"
"Escort me away?" Just as the queen was about to say something, these people had already rushed down to fight with the enemy. The people from the Wang Banner Guards also followed immediately.
