"Come here! Come here!" Dast shouted and ran into Anna's room. "Someone just came back to report that people from the Pirate Kingdom really appeared outside the city! There are about 8,000 people! And, but...
People from the Sa Khanate are also here! Azov City will soon be surrounded by them!"
Anna was eating a pie with a fork. After listening to Dust's words, she was shocked and inserted the fork into the stone table.
"Forget the Khazar Khanate, how did the Island Republic invite people from the Pirate Kingdom? If I hadn't been here, the Republic of Liguria would have died, right?"
"We'd better escape from the city right away!" Dast said, "I heard that the Pirate Kingdom is very powerful. Although they are pirates, they invaded the Seven Hills Empire a few years ago and kidnapped Baselisa of the Seven Hills Empire.
!”
"Ah, Sister Ella. She is usually silly, so I am not surprised at all that she would be captured by pirates. Even a maid next to her was kidnapped, which is a pity. I have a pretty good relationship with that maid.
"
Anna calmed down and tried to pull the fork out of the stone table. But the quality of the stone table didn't seem to be very good. When Anna pulled out the fork, a piece of the table board was pulled out. She stared unhappily.
The stunned Dast looked at him: "What are you looking at! Why don't you bring me another fork! I haven't finished eating this pie yet!"
"Do you still have the heart to eat pie?" Dast stamped his feet on the spot anxiously, "That's the pirate kingdom! If you, a princess, are kidnapped by them, you will end up miserable!"
Seeing that Dust had no intention of picking up the fork, Anna glared at him again, grabbed the remaining pie with her bare hands and stuffed it into her mouth.
"Whether you're miserable or not depends on what you look like." Anna said vaguely while chewing the pie. "If the pirate leader is very handsome, it's not impossible for me to follow him and become a female pirate."
"You said the same thing when the Khazar Khanate came! What's in your head?" Dust shouted, holding his head, "Isn't Artemis one of the three virgin goddesses of Olympus?
?Aren’t you against marriage between men and women? Aren’t you contemptuous of Aphrodite, the goddess of love? How did you get the protection of Artemis in this way?”
As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Dast felt something bad. Sure enough, Princess Anna stared at him with murderous intent.
"What do you know? Oppose marriage between men and women? Despise Aphrodite? It's because everyone says so, so almost no one can get the protection of Artemis!"
Anna grabbed the fork stuck in the stone slab and threw it at Daxter, while she let out a cry of grief and indignation:
"I understand Artemis so well! Why is she a virgin? It's because she is too powerful and no one dares to take her! Then we can only pretend to be against marriage between men and women and hate Aphrodite.
It’s over!”
The sound of rallying horns came from outside the city.
"So fast?" Dast suddenly jumped up and began to look for his armor and sword in the room.
"It's still the same old rule, I want to see what the leader on the other side looks like first!" Anna said, "Don't disturb me before I can see clearly!"
Rurik led his 3,000 men to the city of Azov. He did not even build a siege camp, but went to the city to provoke.
"People above, listen up! I am the Grand Duke of Novgorod, the famous Rurik! Under the protection of Thor!"
Rurik swung his sledgehammer in the air, causing lightning after lightning in the sky.
"Although we have no enmity, the city of Azov blocks my way to plunder the Caspian Sea! If you are wise, please exit the city and leave the city of Azov to me! If you want to challenge, come out of the city now! All of them
Gentlemen, please be more cheerful!"
Rurik's voice was very loud. But the bursts of thunder frightened the defenders of Azov City and they covered their ears tightly. They couldn't hear what Rurik was shouting at all.
"Why don't you dare to come out? Don't you even have the courage to go out of the city to fight?"
Rurik shouted while continuing to cause thunder and lightning above the city wall.
"What does this pirate want to do?" Dust shouted, covering his ears, "Isn't his throat tired when comparing his voice with his own thunder and lightning?"
"Wow...his beard is so ugly." Anna looked at Rurik who was fighting outside the city, showing an unprecedented look of disgust, "This is too rough, I got goosebumps just looking at his face.
, I don’t want to have anything to do with this guy even to death!”
Rurik shouted below for a long time. Seeing that no one on the city wall responded, he smashed the city wall with a sledgehammer. A huge bolt of lightning hit the gatehouse of the city wall, causing the entire gatehouse to burn.
"Hahaha! Come out quickly! Come out quickly!"
Rurik continued to dance with the hammer while laughing, so the gate towers and sentry towers of Azov City burst into flames. Unfortunately, the defenders who were directly hit by lightning were turned into charcoal in an instant.
Rurik also let lightning hit the city wall several times, leaving several large black marks on the city wall. The defenders on the city wall covered their heads and kicked them, and were temporarily defeated.
"Dast!" the mercenaries shouted, holding their heads, "kill this lunatic quickly! Otherwise, the entire city of Azov will be burned by him!"
Dast cast a glance at Anna asking for permission. When Anna nodded, he suddenly became energetic and shouted: "Everyone lie down and close your eyes! Otherwise, my bow of Apollo, the sun god, will break."
Your eyes!"
While he was talking, he had taken off the bow on his back and aimed an arrow at Rurik. Thunder was rolling in the sky, and his expression remained unchanged amidst the lightning and thunder, showing a heroic and arrogant air.
"Rurik! Although you are very powerful, you can only be a dead soul under the bow of my white knight! Take the arrow!"
——"Are you aiming in this direction to shoot the ants on the ground?"
Princess Anna's merciless criticism brought Das back to reality. He awkwardly moved his bow: "Is this so?"
Anna let out a "tsk" sound, stretched out a small hand from the side and grabbed Dust's bow string.
"Follow the movements of my hands - don't look at me! If anyone finds out that I did it, I will crush you and put it into the pie!"
Although Anna only had one hand holding the bowstring, Dast felt a strange force pulling his hand. He followed Anna's movements and adjusted the position of the bow. At a certain moment, he grabbed the arrow.
His hand suddenly felt relaxed, but the hand holding the bow seemed to be bent by the bow. At the same time, a faint light suddenly appeared at the tip of the arrow in his hand.
Dast has seen this scene many times. This is a sign that the arrow is protected by Artemis. Three Khans of the Khazar Khanate died under such arrows. The man who was grabbing the bow
Before his hand was bent completely by Anna, he hurriedly let go of the arrow. Then the arrow full of magic flew straight towards Rurik.
