Chapter 268 Overwhelming Predicament

The memories from Golden Light City made Sophia feel a little bad, and the mysterious yellow-haired girl in front of her made Sophia even more annoyed.

The ability to pass through walls is her unique talent. No one can break her spell, not even Camilla above the stars.

She wanted to use Alice's head to calm her anger and give Charlemagne a warning. If he dared to bring such a magician to him again, he would be prepared to bring back a corpse.

Sophia walked to the wall calmly. She heard Alice reciting a spell in a low voice. Her voice was very vague. Sophia couldn't hear the content of the spell clearly, but Sophia didn't care about this. She cared about it.

It's about whether there are sharp enough knives in the castle.

In the blink of an eye, Sophia got into the wall.

Conrad took a breath and stepped forward to ask Alice: "What happened? Did you fail?"

Alice remained silent, and everyone looked at each other in silence for a long while. Charlemagne noticed something unusual.

"Sophie, can you hear me? Where are you?" He shouted several times at the wall, but did not hear any answer.

Charlemagne hurriedly ran to the next room, but still did not see Sophia. He immediately ran back to the meeting hall, pointed his sword at Alice and said: "Take back your witchcraft immediately!"

Alice raised her head and said: "I win, Your Majesty."

"I order you to take back your witchcraft immediately!" Charlemagne almost went crazy.

Alice withdrew her witchcraft, and Sophia came out of the wall, covered in mud, and fainted on the ground.

In the past minute, she was stuck in the wall, unable to speak, unable to move, and even lost her breath.

If Charlemagne had not stopped Alice in time, Sophia might have suffocated to death.

"Call the doctor here, quickly!" Charlemagne hugged Sophia tightly and called in her ear, "Sophie, my baby, my queen, my favorite angel, wake up.

, I beg you to wake up!"

Sophia slowly opened her eyes. Behind Charlemagne was a vase of blooming flowers and lush green leaves, which gave Sophia some illusions.

She saw a man with green hair.

"Lei...Ji..."

Sophia's stuttering was a little unclear. Charlemagne put his ear to her lips and asked softly: "What are you talking about, my angel?"

"I'm talking..." Sophia coughed a few times and slowly sat up. The change of perspective made her illusion disappear.

Just now, she thought she was about to realize her last wish in life.

Fortunately, her life did not end. Unfortunately, this wish did not come true.

After drinking some water and resting for a while, Sophia slowly recovered.

Seeing that Sophia was safe and sound, Charlemagne smiled.

He turned around, called the guards, and asked them to take Alice to the square, cut off her head, and present it to Sophia.

Sophia stopped the guard and turned to Charlemagne: "This is not the girl's fault. She has indeed been favored by the gods. Fulfill your promise. This is also my promise to her."

Charlemagne looked back at Alice, who was trembling and wet her skirt again.

"You are lucky, but you won't have such good luck next time. No matter who it is, if anyone dares to hurt Her Majesty the Queen, I will cut him into pieces," Charlemagne adjusted his tone and forced a smile.

He said, "Alice Windsor, I officially ennoble you as a lifelong baron of the Kingdom of Lane. After the war is over, I will allocate a territory to you."

Lifelong baron sounds very impressive, but in fact it is the lowest title in the Kingdom of Lane, lower than an ordinary baron.

In the Kingdom of Lane, titles are divided into two categories: hereditary and lifelong. The word "life" is added in front of the title, which means that the title has no hereditary rights, and Alice cannot pass the title and territory to her descendants.

But this is still an amazing achievement, even Bachelo has not received a knighthood.

Alice knelt on her knees and thanked Charlemagne profusely, but Charlemagne didn't bother to look at her. Looking at the weak Sophia, Charlemagne felt extremely distressed. He wanted to send Sophia back to the room, but she couldn't.

Sophia rejected his offer.

Everyone has experienced some things. As long as he is allowed into the room, something will happen, but Sophia does not intend to have anything happen to Charlemagne.

"I will ask the servant to clean the room. I will live next door to you. You can call me at any time." The infatuated Charlemagne still did not give up, but he was rejected again.

"Don't live next door to me, never."

"Why?" Charlemagne looked at Sophia awkwardly.

At least you have to show some mercy to the king. Sophia thought for a moment, then smiled playfully and said: "You look very charming today. I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself. Now is not the time. How about waiting until the war is over?"

"

Although he was disappointed, Charlemagne naturally had no objection to Sophia's idea.

After returning to the room, Sophia soaked in the bathtub for a long time and felt terrible from head to toe.

"I almost died, do you know?" She covered her face and murmured to herself holding back tears, "I was teased by a damn yellow-haired girl, do you know? I'm thinking of you, don't you miss me? I

Can I see you again..."



After learning that Han Maple Fortress had been raided, Chris showed off fiercely in front of Edwina: "Did you see it? This is wisdom, wisdom from the battlefield. I was sure that Sophia would come.

, she will definitely come, and now that she has indeed come, what else do you have to say!"

Wen Na did not dare to say a word, not only out of reason, but also out of admiration. She marveled at Chris's amazing foresight.

After pretending to have a hearty pussy, Chris had to face reality.

He was indeed right about what he said, but the result was not what he wanted. There were indeed loopholes in Hanfeng Fortress, and the loopholes were more obvious than he imagined.

The top priority was to repair the city gate quickly. Chris found the best craftsmen in Shattered Snow City, including Kalaf, Noros and the molten elf Hurley. Chris personally took them to Hanmaple Fortress.

He brought several boxes of bullets and a large amount of medicine, and took Imma with him.

With Hurley's help, Kalaf and Noros repaired the city gate in only half a day. The decision to take Irma was also very correct. There were many wounded in the fortress, including broken orc bones.

The broken bone tendons were bitten off by the leopard man, and his hand was like a piece of rotten flesh hanging from the wrist, showing signs of necrosis.

"Can you cure him?" Jiawen asked.

"I have to ask you. If you want him to stay here to fight, I'm sorry that I can't do anything. If I can bring him back to Broken Snow City, there may be a glimmer of hope."

"Stop saying those nice things," Broken Bones laughed, "This hand is finished. All you can do is chop it off."

Imma sighed and said: "If there is no other way, I will consider amputation, otherwise your entire arm will rot."

"What is amputation?" Broken Bones frowned, "You want to chop it off, do it now, I won't even blink."

"I mean when there is really no other way," Emma said, "Magic scholar Swindell has a magical tree called Wavetail. The roots of that tree are very tough and can replace your tendons."

"Roots?" Broken Bones laughed loudly, "Forget it, why did you lie to me? Give me a glass of ale and cut it off. It's that simple. What's wrong with that?"

"Whatever you want."

Imma didn't want to say any more, but Tie Shou said from the side: "Take him away, we don't need him here anymore."

Shattered Bones raised his head and said, "What do you mean?"

"Don't you understand?" Tie Shou said with an indifferent expression, "I can't leave a cripple in the army."

"Who are you calling a cripple?" Broken Bones stood up, gritting his fangs and looking at Iron Skull.

Iron Skull looked at Broken Bones with contempt: "You have been fighting for more than ten years. There are some things I don't want to repeat to you. Go away quickly and leave yourself some dignity."

Iron Skull turned around and walked away, Broken Bone looked at Jiawen with tears in his eyes: "Master Commander, has the First Army abandoned me?"

Jiawen shook his head and said: "Listen to me and return to Broken Snow City immediately for treatment. No matter whether your hand can be cured or not, you will always be a soldier of the First Army."

"I can still fight! Why abandon me!"

Broken Bones sat on the ground and howled loudly. Jarvan walked outside the door, looked at Iron Skull, and sighed: "You can convince Erwin, why don't you think of a better way to convince your subordinates?"

"This is already the best way," Iron Skull said with a smile, "He is different from Erwin, he can't understand everything."

Chris was not in the mood to pay attention to the friendship between men. He took Calaf on a tour of the fortress, and the thing he was most worried about happened.

There are still loopholes in the fortress. About three miles away from the sea, there is a section of the city wall that uses very poor construction methods.

"Did you see these gaps?" Khalaf took out a knife and dug out some fine sand in the gaps between the stones. "There shouldn't be such big gaps between these stones. The sand was filled in intentionally.

If the Byers attack this section of the city wall with their black powder, it will not take long for this section of the city wall to collapse."

It's the northern city wall again, and it's the craftsman's method.

According to Chris's speculation, when the fortress was originally built, the reason why such loopholes were left was to prevent the lords of the fortress from rebelling.

The southern city wall is almost flawless, but the northern city wall still has many loopholes. Chris wanted to stay in Hanmaple Fortress for a few more days, but bad news came from the navy again.

Doranor was attacked again, and this time he lost two battleships.

The White Tower Kingdom's fleet had transported the goods to Camel Island two days ago, but Reggie did not appear with the fleet.

"Damn Reggie, where have you been!" The anxious Chris cursed, only to find that Calaf and the surrounding soldiers were looking at him with terrifying eyes.

"You, you don't have to be like this," Chris quickly explained, "I just...miss him."
