Chapter 1299 (1/2)
The capital of the Principality of rumbel is expanded from a village located at the foot of the historic rumbel castle.
After hundreds of years of continuous operation, this small village has gradually become particularly prosperous in the restoration and expansion again and again. In this expansion, the mountain road leading to rumbel castle has changed from a road originally located in the suburbs to a road that can only go up the mountain from rumbel city.
Over the years, the city of rumbel has become a symbol of honor for the whole principality of rumbel.
There are no beggars or poor people here. Basically, people who are willing to work can get enough food and clothing. Of course, the living standard and cost of this city are not low, and it can even be said that it is more expensive than ordinary cities.
But today, the whole city seems very quiet.
Except for some patrol soldiers wearing heavy armor, there were no residents and tourists walking in the streets in the whole Wangdu. Almost all of them hid in their hotels and homes. Only when those windows happened to face a residential house with a significantly more guarded street, someone quietly opened a gap behind the window and secretly observed the outside scenery.
Not long after, when the sun gradually rose to noon, the newly-built transporters in Wangdu finally emitted a bright light.
A young woman in a velvet fur robe is walking out of the transmission array.
At this time, several guards who had been waiting for a long time immediately greeted him, knelt respectfully on one knee and saluted him: ”welcome Miss Cecilia.”
These guards are the soldiers of Cecilia's guards.
The earliest soldiers of Cecilia's guards were basically renbel people. They were the people who left the Principality of renbel with Clov and then went to the trade capital to collect Cecilia's information. However, after taking refuge in Cecilia with a series of changes, these people gradually became an extremely terrible elite division, but the price was that the soldiers originally born in the Principality of rumbel were decreasing.
Until today.
Although the full size of Cecilia's guards can reach 50000, they are actually rumbelle people, but there are only about 100 people left.
At the moment, it was these rumbelles who came to meet Cecilia - even if they were middle and high-level leaders in Cecilia's guards, they still cried with joy when they were able to return to their hometown.
Therefore, they are welcoming the real and only Archduke of the Principality of rumbel, which is also the most glorious place in their hearts.
”Where are the people?” Cecilia asked, in a very soft voice, but very gentle.
”Waiting for you at rumbel castle.” A guard answered.
”Rumbel... Ancient castle...” Cecilia murmured, and her eyes couldn't help looking at the castle that could vaguely see the outline even standing near the transmission array in the city center, ”it's been... Seventeen years.”
This ancient castle carries Cecilia's whole childhood memories.
From the time she could remember when she was three years old, until she was sent to the Magic School of Maggie Empire at the age of eight, she lived in the castle. She was familiar with everything in the castle: brick by brick, flower by grass, the layout of each house and the plants planted in the courtyard. Even if she had never come back here since she was 12, all the memories buried in her mind emerged when she just saw the castle on the top of the mountain hundreds of meters above sea level.
Seventeen years.
After hearing the news of her parents' death at the age of 12 and being forced to abscond, Cecilia had not set foot in her hometown for 17 years.
Until today.
Tears rolled out of Cecilia's eyes.
”Miss Cecilia, please get in the car.” A guard, very clever, took out the carriage already waiting to stand by, and then invited Cecilia to get on the bus.
Cecilia nodded slightly, got on the carriage, and then, escorted by a whole team of more than 50 Cecilia Guard officers, began to drive towards rumbel castle. Until the carriage gradually disappeared at the end of the street, those hiding in folk houses and hotels finally opened the door and came out, and their eyes also looked at the end of the street.
The look of many people is very complicated.
From the moment the city of rumbel opened its door and surrendered, the residents knew that their principality of rumbel had been defeated again.
The last time they were defeated was hundreds of years ago, when they became vassals of the Maggie empire. From then on, they always looked inferior in front of the people of the Maggie empire. This time, although the reason for the war was the war of revenge, and the former Duke and daughter of rumbel who had been persecuted in the past came back for revenge, she brought strength that did not belong to the Principality of rumbel - in the eyes of rumbel people, the void empire was a group of invaders.
Who will have a good face for the invaders?
Countless people are beginning to worry about their future destiny.
