Magnolia Fort in the Magnolia Principality was heavily besieged by an overwhelming army.
Inside the main castle palace.
A knight trotted up to Vivian in panic and said in a trembling voice: "Your Royal Highness! Black Cloud Castle and Blackpool City have fallen one after another. Now... the enemy army has surrounded Magnolia Castle. We...
....."
The knight burst into tears at the end.
Vivian sat on her father's former throne, silent.
After a while, she turned her head and looked at Tim beside her, the talented knight she had personally recruited for her family.
"I'm really sorry. I may not be able to fulfill my promise. You can take the family's lion wings and escape for your life."
Vivian's bright eyes looked at Tim and said.
"Your Highness Princess! What about you?"
"Me?" Vivian smiled miserably, stood up, and looked outside the palace, "I am the princess of the Magnolia Principality and the daughter of Grand Duke Roland. Naturally, I have to fulfill my responsibilities as a princess!"
"I will live and die with the Yulan Principality!"
After hearing this, the corner of Tim's mouth twitched and he said slowly: "Since the princess won't leave, as the princess's knight, I have no reason to escape alone!"
"Tim, with your talent, you will definitely be able to become a sky knight. If you obtain the inheritance of the forbidden land, it is not impossible to become a blood knight in the future! Are you sure you want to bury your life here?"
"I'm sure!" Tim looked at Vivian with soft eyes, "This is the meaning of me standing here now!"
"Tim..."
Vivian's cold heart felt warm for the first time since her father's death.
I have to say, this feeling is really good!
With an indescribable emotion in her eyes, she looked at Tim and said softly: "If we can survive..."
Tim stretched out his finger, put it in front of her lips, and smiled: "Don't say stupid things, we will definitely survive!"
"Um."
...
Outside Magnolia Castle.
The Temple Knights besieged the entire castle, and not even a fly could escape.
As for the gap in the sky, under the guard of hundreds of sky knights from the Temple Knights Legion, it is the most difficult line of defense to break through.
Allen was riding on the back of a five-meter-tall earth demon lion, looking up at the towering city wall in front of him, his eyes narrowed slightly.
"Open the door and surrender! With my Lord's mercy, I can still preserve the last bloodline of your Magnolia family!"
On the city wall.
Princess Vivian walked out of a group of knights and looked down at Allen below.
She knew that it was this man who led the army to capture the entire Magnolia Principality. Now, it was finally the turn of the Magnolia Castle, the heart of the Magnolia Principality.
Allen!
She remembers the name!
My father was trying to attack the Light of Andaya and died at the hands of an unknown strong man from the enemy.
And Allen is the commander-in-chief of the enemy army.
According to the rules of Knight Continent, Allen must be stronger than that mysterious strong man!
In fact, Vivian is right to think so. As a third-level temple knight, Allen is indeed no weaker than Zheng Dong in the concentration stage.
It's just that now Zheng Dong has reached the foundation building stage, and has even broken through to the golden elixir in the prehistoric era. Compared with Allen, his strength is not at the same level.
"In the Magnolia family, there are only warriors who died in battle! There are no cowards who surrender!"
On the city wall, Vivian's voice was not loud but firm.
Hearing this, Allen knew that the negotiations had broken down.
With a wave of his hand, the Legion of Temple Knights, who had been looking forward to it for a long time, roared and rushed forward.
There is no suspense about the outcome of this war.
Zheng Dong's consciousness was always paying attention to the battlefield, and he didn't feel relieved until he saw the Temple Knights attacking the Magnolia Fort.
Three third-order temple knights, several hundred second-order temple knights, and fifteen thousand first-order temple knights.
It would be strange if such a terrifying force could not defeat the Magnolia Principality which had lost its bloodline knight.
Vivian stood on the city wall, looking at the brutal fighting below and around her, her eyes blurred by tears.
Finally, knowing that the situation was over, Vivian pulled out the dagger, closed her eyes and wiped it on her fair neck.
Unexpectedly, the hand holding the dagger was pinched by a pair of strong hands.
"Your Highness Princess, now is not the time to die!"
"Tim, you..."
Vivian looked at Tim in disbelief...
Less than half a day.
The Temple Knights not only captured Magnolia Castle, but also cleaned up the battlefield.
However, around the castle, you can often see broken walls and traces of reddish-brown blood, proving that a battle has just occurred here.
Inside the palace of the main castle of Yulan Fort.
On the high throne, a beautiful figure sat.
But this figure is not Vivian, but the bishop of the Temple of Truth, Elise.
As the Bishop of the Temple of Truth, Elise has less actual power than Allen, but her status is higher than that of Allen.
As the spokesperson of the gods in the human world, she sits on the throne, symbolizing that the Magnolia Principality has been conquered by the Temple of Truth.
Vivian was escorted in as a prisoner by two temple knights, one on the left and one on the right.
The weapons on her body had long been looted.
Of course, even if she was carrying a weapon, most of the people present were second-level extraordinary beings and above. She, a mere first-level extraordinary knight, would not be able to make waves at all.
Vivian did not look at Elise on the throne, but at Tim in the crowd, with a sarcastic look in her eyes.
"It turns out you are a traitor!"
"No, Your Highness Princess! That is not accurate," Tim nodded slightly, "Actually, I am a member of the Inquisition of the Temple of Truth."
After speaking, Tim looked at Vivian without changing his expression.
"That's it, that's it, haha..."
Vivian laughed crazily.
By the end of the laugh, she burst into tears.
No one interrupted her and watched her vent quietly.
From a noble princess to a subjugated slave and a prisoner, I am afraid that no one else would have done better than her.
After a long time, Vivian's laughter subsided.
"You won't kill me?"
Elise opened her red lips lightly and said softly: "Vivian, as long as you can cooperate with us, I am willing to forgive your crimes on behalf of my Lord."
"Forgive me for my crime? Yes! I am guilty," Vivian said with a sad smile, "Why do you want me to cooperate with you?"
"In the name of the Grand Duke, I issue an edict to the Yulan Principality to surrender to the Temple of Truth!"
"You want me to sell my ancestral territory?!"
Vivian squinted her eyes and looked at Elise.
"You can't call it a betrayal. After all, you should know that the Magnolia Principality is already under the actual control of the Temple of Truth."
"However, without my edict, you will not have the legal ownership of the Magnolia Principality. As long as the forbidden area interferes, you must withdraw from this territory!"
With that said, Vivian approached Elise step by step, "Unless you dare to resist the forbidden area!"
Hearing this, Elise frowned slightly.
This is also what worries them the most.
There is no such precedent in Knight Continent.
It’s just that in the past hundred years, the forbidden area has interfered less and less with the countries in the Knight Continent.
Otherwise, Gray Lubao did not dare to attack the Eagle Kingdom last time.
