This voice attracted almost everyone’s attention. Everyone turned to look at the entrance of the hall.
The soldier at the entrance of the hall was also slightly stunned when he saw the scene in the hall.
He had never thought that he would be able to see such an odd scene in his life.
Countless imperial guards surrounded a weak-looking guy. In front of him was a stranger who was standing in the hall with an arrogant expression. Beside him was a huge sword.
Wait a minute, why does this huge sword look familiar?
Just as the soldier was in a daze, Harold said unhappily, “Don’t you have news to report? Why are you still standing there?”
Hearing King Harold’s words, the soldier finally reacted. He quickly bypassed the guards in front of him and came to the middle of the hall.
“Reporting to Your Majesty, I am here to pass on the news from the front line.
“The soldiers on the front line are in a very difficult situation. They can’t hold on much longer. Please send reinforcements, Your Majesty!”
Hearing this, Timus and Mike were slightly stunned. The soldiers on the front line could not hold on anymore?
How was that possible!
When they left, they had a huge advantage. Why could they not hold on anymore? And they needed reinforcements! What exactly happened?
Just as Timus and Mike were confused, Harold looked at the soldier in front of him and asked a crucial question.
“How is General Henry now?”
When King Harold asked this question, everyone looked at Timus.
Now was the time to verify whether what Timus had said was true or false.
The soldier hesitated for a moment before he lowered his head and spoke, “General Henry is dead.”
If everyone was only surprised when Timus said this before, now, they were truly shocked.
This guy in front of them was obviously a human soldier. It was absolutely impossible for him to lie. The authenticity of this news was very believable.
The great hero of the human race actually died on the battlefield. This was a great blow to the officials.
However, Harold was not too disappointed, because he still remembered that Timus had said something along the lines that Henry was a liar.
He looked at the soldier and asked again, “How did General Henry die?”
The soldier thought for a moment and said, “At that time, I actually didn’t see it very clearly, because I was a soldier standing in the back row.
“I only remember that a fireball flew over from the elf camp. This fireball hit General Henry, and then General Henry died.”
Hearing this, the entire hall suddenly fell silent.
Many officials looked at Timus in surprise.
A fireball killed General Henry?
Why did the development of the matter really seem to be in line with what this young man said?
Once again, he asked again just to confirm.
“Is it really just a fireball?”
“It’s really just a fireball…”
“General Henry just died?”
“Straight to death…”
“…”
Harold fell silent. Instead of immediately asking other questions, he was thinking about what Timus had said.
