The fortress was in turmoil. If Elizabeth hadn't eliminated most of the demihumans, it would have been a joke for the Holy Knights to invade with their meager manpower.
Even the Holy Knights in their heyday couldn't stop the demi-humans. Even though the demi-humans were backed by Jaldabaoth, they only helped demi-humans defeat a few strong men of the holy knights. The others were defeated by the demi-humans themselves.
.
Now it's the demihuman's turn to feel uncomfortable, because the Holy Knights are supported by Elizabeth, but Elizabeth doesn't care much about the life and death of the Holy Knights.
Originally, this plan was to deliberately consume the strength of the Holy Kingdom and the demi-humans, but now it is the demi-humans' turn to be unlucky.
Neia followed Princess Elizabeth and His Majesty the Sorcerer King as they walked slowly inside the fortress.
There were obviously other holy knights fighting with the remaining demihuman defenders in the city, but Princess Elizabeth, who was walking at the front, simply ignored the fighting situation around her.
He walked forward on his own without any intention of helping those paladins, and he didn't even look at them.
"Um... Your Majesty, I don't quite understand. How did you and Princess Elizabeth judge that there was no noteworthy combat power in the city?" Neia mustered up the courage to ask the question that had been lingering in her mind just now.
.
If it were her before, she would not take the initiative to ask any questions to such a distinguished person even if she had the courage to do so. This is probably because she has spent a lot of time with His Majesty and the Princess during this period!
"It's very simple. I'm already a bone dragon rider. If there is really a powerful character hidden in the city, he will definitely show up in this situation. I even waited for several minutes before attacking. Since there is nothing worth noting
In terms of combat power, those skull dragons are useless and can simply be used as ladders." Princess Elizabeth explained nonchalantly.
"Ah... did you summon those bone dragons just for testing?" Neia was shocked again. When she saw the bone dragon, she thought Princess Elizabeth would control the bone dragon to attack the city, but she didn't expect it was just
Used for testing purposes.
"Of course, you can just use the bone dragon to step in directly, but there should be many civilian prisoners in the city, so the damage caused by this would be too great. Besides... wouldn't it be quite troublesome for you to rebuild afterwards?"
Princess Elizabeth continued.
Indeed, if a huge undead creature like the Bone Dragon attacks the city, it will only take a few rounds for the entire fortress to be razed to the ground.
What will be captured by then will only be ruins, not a war fortress capable of both offense and defense. So what is the point of capturing this place?
I thought that Princess Elizabeth was unwilling to help more, but it seemed that she was being careless.
As expected of Princess Elizabeth!
"Your Highness, Princess, has thought so much for us, thank you very much." Neia looked at Princess Elizabeth with admiration and bowed her head in thanks.
The three of them continued to move forward, gradually leaving the main melee area. Then civilian corpses began to appear on the chaotic streets. Their deaths were extremely miserable.
Although there were also many corpses of various subhuman species mixed in, this strange phenomenon made Neia feel strange again.
The three of them were very eye-catching in the first place. Not to mention the tall Sorcerer King, Princess Elizabeth, who was dressed like a Holy Knight, walked along like a walk without bumping into the Shaoya soldiers.
.
However, when the demi-human soldiers saw them, they ran away as if they were ghosts and did not come to entangle them.
After a while, Neia saw a very uncomfortable situation. Not far ahead, in front of the central square position, there were some neatly arranged wooden boards.
However, on every wooden board, there is a person with his limbs nailed to the wooden board! It is obvious that this is the work of those bastard sub-humans.
The still living people were nailed to the wooden boards to use as shields to build a position, and there were many demi-humans hiding in the gaps between the wooden boards to observe.
"How to deal with that?" Princess Elizabeth stopped and asked.
"This..." Neia didn't know whether Princess Elizabeth was asking His Majesty the Sorcerer King or herself for advice, but Neia could sense from Princess Elizabeth's suddenly lowered tone that after seeing this scene, Princess Elizabeth
I'm angry.
Neia didn't know what to do. She could only look at the broad back of His Majesty the Sorcerer King, and she could only place her hopes on His Majesty the Sorcerer King.
If... Captain Remedios was also present, the previous incident of rescuing people would definitely happen again.
"Neia, if it were you, what would you do?" His Majesty the Sorcerer King instead threw the question to Neia, which was something Neia didn't expect at all.
"Me? Xiao... Xiao... I don't know." Neia was very flustered and gave a direct answer.
If it had been in the past, I would have made the same decision as Captain Remedios, thinking of ways to save people first!
But in this case, more people might die if the plane is delayed. Thinking of Neia, she naturally felt that she should fight.
How can we win without sacrifice or abandonment?
But who gives himself the right to sacrifice others?
If you were the one nailed to the board, would you be willing to be sacrificed?
"Huh? Are you still hesitating? I can understand your mood, after all, those people are citizens of your Holy Kingdom." The Sorcerer King said very calmly.
"Um... Your Majesty, if... I mean if, the people there are citizens of the Sorcerous Kingdom, what would you choose?" Neia didn't know what kind of evil she had been possessed by, so she just spoke unabashedly, and put herself to the test.
The question that was on her mind was spoken out, and as soon as she said it, Neia immediately regretted it.
"Haha! This kind of situation will never happen to my citizens under any circumstances, so I can't answer your question. I'm sorry!" The Sorcerer King didn't seem to take it seriously, but turned to look at Neia.
Said very kindly.
The Sorcerer King said this very confidently and domineeringly, and his tone was so matter-of-fact.
Neia thought for a moment, and it was indeed true. With the protection of His Majesty the Great Sorcerer King, who would dare to harm or kidnap the citizens of the Sorcerous Kingdom? Are they impatient?
I really envy the citizens of the Sorcerous Kingdom. They are so lucky to have such a great king protecting them.
How wonderful it would be if the Holy Kingdom could also receive the protection of His Majesty the Sorcerer King!
In front of the great Sorcerer King, demi-humans would never dare to touch a single hair of the Holy Kingdom.
Unfortunately, this is just my fantasy. The Holy Kingdom cannot surrender to the great Sorcerer King because His Majesty is an immortal.
Even if the Holy Kingdom is destroyed, the upper echelons of the Holy Kingdom will not surrender to His Majesty the Sorcerer King!
Fortunately, His Majesty the Sorcerer King is kind and willing to help the Holy Kingdom this time, otherwise the demise of the Holy Kingdom would only be a matter of time.
