"Your Majesty, don't continue to argue about this matter." Amy quietly pulled Ella's sleeve from behind, "You will be suspected."
"But...gu...okay."
Amy's original clothes have been torn and can no longer be worn, and now she only wears a piece of rag that she picked up. Considering Amy's figure, this outfit is a bit uncomfortable in a sense. Ella is still wearing her clothes.
The purple robe brought out from the palace. Although this dress is particularly conspicuous in the army, there is no other way. If not wearing this dress, Ella can only wear a rag like Amy - they are almost now
They had nothing. Although the red-bearded pirate had left behind his brother's armor, what they needed now was ordinary clothes more than heavy armor.
"Your Majesty, I heard that in the army, as long as you kill the soldiers on the opposite side on the battlefield, you can take off their clothes and equipment as trophies. Then we will have other clothes to wear."
"Gu...I will never point my sword at the heroic soldiers who defend the empire!"
"Your Majesty... I feel like it's very cold down there and the wind keeps blowing in!"
Amy grabbed the cloth on her body tightly, her cheeks were as red as if she was drunk. What happened last night seemed to have caused great trauma to her, and she began to talk nonsense:
"If Your Majesty is not willing to take action, I will go find the clothes myself! I will take off a hundred pieces of clothes, so that even if they are torn off a hundred times, there will be no problem!"
"Urgent report - urgent report -" a long and drawn-out voice came from the rear from far to near. The pirates along the way gave way one after another, and only a twelve or three-year-old child was seen rushing from the middle of the team.
Passing through, he ran all the way to the general's flag at the front of the team. His speed was completely comparable to an adult sprinting with all his strength. What was terrifying was that he chased all the way from Brusis at such a speed without showing any signs of any signs of failure.
exhausted.
Amy was startled a little and whispered to Ella;
"He is a person protected by Hermes. For such a young child, the level of protection has actually reached the 'natural' level."
Dan spit on the ground for some reason:
"This kid Gan, his body is not growing fast, but his speed is getting faster and faster."
After a while, Gan had already sent the message to the front of the team. After a brief silence, an urgent order was passed from the front of the team to everyone's ears:
"Everyone, run forward!"
"What kind of orders is that guy Bjorn giving out randomly? Do you want to tire me to death by running from here to the destination?" Dan cursed. Then, he lowered his head and asked to the earth in a low voice that seemed to come from the abyss.
He said: "Bjorn, what order did you receive and why are you so anxious?"
Soon, another completely different voice came out of Dan's mouth:
"Dan, Boss Hestein just sent a message that the troops stationed in the opponent's capital have begun to march towards Brusis. He wants us to capture the castle as quickly as possible and then go back to support him!"
Amy is going crazy:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's the protection of Hermes again! To be able to have such a conversation, his protection level is above 'natural'! Why are there so many high-level magicians in a group of pirates? Your Majesty
, wouldn’t one hundred pieces of clothing be enough? I...should I prepare a thousand pieces?”
Ella was not the only one who was crazy. Dan also held his head and wailed:
"Those cowards from the Seven Hills Empire actually charged over like this? It's over! Lord Hestein doesn't have enough men left, and the entire army will be annihilated!"
Only Ella was pleased with Berengar's heroic attack. If it weren't for the surrounding pirates staring at her, she would have almost applauded.
A castle appeared in front. It was a very simple castle. It did not give people a huge sense of oppression like the city walls described in the epics, but it had the most basic defensive function. There were about 10,000 remnant troops who had fled here gathered in the castle.
, in addition, there are some private soldiers of the owner of the castle itself. Although they are not elite troops, they make the castle like an eyesore nail stuck in front.
On the other side, the number of pirates was only 5,000.
"Hahahaha! Let these pirates be wiped out right here!"
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Don't say such things here!"
Fortunately, Ella and Amy were left far behind the team, and no one heard Ella's words.
"Hahahaha! Just let these pirates be wiped out here!"
——Above the city wall, there was a person who said the same thing as Ella. That was Mamelkus, the owner of this castle, and the current head of the Aemilius family who made Ella spend a year investigating the source of funds.
The head of the family. He is a short, fat man with red skin all over his body. There are not many senior generals in the defeated army, so the current head of the Aemilius family, who has not held a palace official position for several generations, "was ordered to become the general at a critical moment".
Command. Originally, as Mamelchus, he would never have the opportunity to command an army of ten thousand people in battle, so now he is so high-spirited and arrogant that he barely read a poem.
"Sir, we have twice the number of people on the opposite side. We should attack them. Should we let the soldiers go out of the city to attack?"
Mamelchus glared at his adjutant: "Go out to attack the city? Who will command? Can you command the troops of the 'Barbarian Alliance'?"
"But the people down there are just a bunch of pirates..."
"What pirates! I am a noble, hiding from a group of pirates and dare not go to war. Is it fair to spread this word? Call them the Heystein War Army! We defended the castle under the fierce attack of the Heystein War Army, just for the sake of the empire.
Rise and fall!”
"Okay, okay sir, how should we deal with these pirates... no, the Hestein War Army?"
"What should we do? Just defend the city. I don't believe this group of infantry can get wings and fly up the city wall! By the time they prepare their siege weapons, Lord Berengar will have already wiped out the enemy! Then we will cooperate
Berengar, attack from both front and back. At that time, I was the one who held back half of the Hestein war army. Fortune and fame are waiting for me in Constantiniya!"
The pirates formed a formation outside the range of bows and arrows. The general named Bjorn stood at the front of the line. He was a young man in his twenties, with red hair and red eyes, and his body was covered with armor.
Decorated with red ribbons and feathers, he looked like a burning fire. He stared at the city wall in front of him for a long time with his burning red pupils. Suddenly, he raised the ax in his hand high
It was raised above the head. At that moment, a sense of fear from the deepest, most natural and primitive part of human memory emerged from the hearts of everyone on the battlefield!
Mamelkus suddenly became a little slurred: "Elf... Elf-level Protector of Ares?"
"Ma, Lord Mamelkus, let's get down from the city wall quickly!"
…
…
Among the people at the scene, only Ella did not understand the situation. She looked left and right, and asked doubtfully: "Ella, why did the defenders on the city wall start to escape?"
"That's because they are afraid of falling to death if the city wall collapses! Your Majesty, please don't ask such common sense questions!"
"Huh? To destroy the city wall, doesn't it require the protection of Ares at the level of 'Elven King'?"
Amy squatted on the ground in fear, covered her ears and shouted:
"That refers to the Diosido wall of Constantiniya! Normal city walls are built to the standard that the Ares Guardian of the 'elf' level cannot be easily destroyed. In other words, as long as the 'elf' level
If the Protector of Ares strikes with all his strength, the city wall may be destroyed!"
