Chapter 21: The Death of Ippolita (11)

A heavy rain was coming, but the wind stopped.

In the desolate forest, in front of a huge old locust tree with a hollow heart, and at the feet of Berengar holding the Spear of Longinus, lies the young, blond Impolita.

"Berengar, if we go east for half a day, we will enter the territory of the Tianfang Empire."

Yinpolita rested her head on Berengar's lap, and a smile finally appeared on her tired face that had been wracked by months of fear.

"The Tianfang Empire is the most powerful country in the world. Berengar, as long as we get the help of the King of Kings, we will definitely be able to invade Constantiniya."

Berengar closed his eyes under the old locust tree and said nothing.

"Berengar, what's wrong with you? Are you sick?" Yin Bolita held Berengar's hand with concern, "Do you want me to treat you?"

Berengar shook his head and slowly opened his eyes.

"Princess……"

He called out softly, as if he wanted to say something. But as soon as the words reached his mouth, he stopped again.

"What's wrong? Berengar?" Impolita asked, "We finally escaped Scipio's pursuit. Why don't you seem very happy?"

"Princess...have you ever considered becoming a doctor?"

"Doctor? Am I not a doctor now?"

"I'm not talking about your intensive care. I'm talking about living a mediocre life as a doctor..."

"Do you want me to forget the death of my parents?" Yin Bolita shook her head, "It's impossible, Berengar, I will never let go of this hatred. I'm not the kind of person who can only bang my head against the wall when I'm angry.

This useless guy will sooner or later make the Scipio family pay in blood."

"However, the Tianfang Empire is our enemy and has been hostile to us for hundreds of years."

"Then we can just take this opportunity to reach peace, okay?" Yin Bolita said, "Father, he is a little arrogant, so he was cut off from the Tianfang Empire's aid. But I won't. If the Tianfang Empire can let me become Augu

Star, then there will be long-term peace between the two countries, and the people of the Seven Hills Empire will no longer be harassed by war."

The wind picked up again, making the old locust tree above Berengar's head rustle.

Berengar sighed and put a small bag into Yin Polita's hand. Yin Polita squeezed the bag and looked at Berengar with some confusion: "What is this?"

"A few gold coins. When I passed through the previous town, I sold my medal to get it. Unfortunately, it's not a lot."

"Why did you give me the purse?" Impolita asked, "Can't you keep it yourself, Berengar?"

"After entering the Tianfang Empire, we might get separated." Berengar said, "Princess, you must bring some coins of your own."

"Get separated? Berengar, are you leaving me?" Impolita sat up nervously, "No! Berengar, my parents have been killed by Scipio. I can rely on you now."

It’s just you!”

Huge raindrops fell from the sky. Berengar took off his coat and covered Yinpolita.

"Don't think too much. Princess, I'll make a bonfire and you can sleep peacefully. When you wake up, the rain will stop. Everything will be fine."

A bolt of lightning fell from the sky, illuminating the entire forest pale.

--lightning

The bolt of lightning pierced the Constantinian sky, illuminating the armored knight on the hill.

"The Praetorian Guards! Arrive at the battlefield!"

Thunder rolled and horses' hooves rumbled. Under the knight's order, the imperial guards of the Seven Hills Empire swept down from the top of the mountain, tearing apart the Alemanni coalition's front line with a devastating blow.

Yinpolita sold herself into slavery and endured humiliation for more than ten years. The opportunity for revenge she gained was shattered by the knight.

She fell to the ground, looking up at his brows, his eyes, the bridge of his nose, his mouth...and his Spear of Longinus just like she did ten years ago.

"Leave no scraps behind!"

Under the pale white thunder and lightning, the war horse under his crotch raised its front hooves. And with his cold and ruthless eyes, he mercilessly stabbed the Longinus from his hand.

——Yin Bolita woke up from her sleep.

For ordinary people, such a nightmare would make them open their eyes violently and even scream in terror.

But Yinpolita didn't. She had already developed the habit of waking up with her eyes closed, and this habit saved her life more than once.

She closed her eyes and used her consciousness to awaken her five senses: there was a soft touch on her back, indicating that she did not fall on the battlefield; the air was dull, so she must have been in a closed space; her body was shaking slightly up and down, not in a carriage,

She was on the ship; but there was no sound of hoofbeats—that is to say, she was lying in the cabin of some ship.

She moved her wrists and ankles without being noticed, without noticing the shackles of the iron rings or ropes. She was now in a free position.

After her consciousness was fully awakened, discomfort all over her body immediately surged up. Although she was struggling to survive under the protection of Apollo, the Black Death was undoubtedly destroying her body step by step.

For ordinary people, such pain would make them moan uncontrollably.

But neither did Yinpolita, because she heard two familiar voices coming from her ears:

"Your Majesty, I asked the soldiers of the Island Republic to find out. This woman is the deputy general in the military operation of the Island Republic. Since the commander is ill, she has actually been commanding the navy of the Island Republic."

Impolita was terrified - the King of Sweden had discovered her true identity.

"What about the execution of civilians? Does it have anything to do with her?"

"Yes." Amy replied, "I have already asked clearly. It was all her orders."

"Why doesn't this guy wake up? Amy, pour some cold water on her! See if she wakes up!"

A basin of cold water was poured on Yin Polita's head. Yin Polita endured it without making a sound.

"This bitch! Could it be that she died of illness like this? I still have something to ask her!"

The habit of not opening her eyes when she wakes up once again saved Yin Bolita's life. If she was found awake by Ella, she would probably be tortured severely and then sent to the guillotine. But as long as she continued to close her eyes - few people

Be interested in an unresponsive body.

Even if she was thrown into death row, even if she was thrown into the sea, even if her hands and feet were cut off, as long as Ella didn't order her to be killed on the spot, she would have a chance to survive!

"Forget it! Keep an eye on her and tell me as soon as you find her waking up!"

Yin Polita laughed at Ella's simplicity in her heart. This woman had been fooled by her again!

However, at this moment, Amy's voice came over:

"Your Majesty, don't leave in a hurry. I'll try again to see if I can wake her up..."

"Amy? What do you want to do?"

"Since splashing water can't wake her up, let's roast her with fire - she doesn't deserve sympathy anyway, right?"
