Chapter 582 (2/2)
”Alas... All parties are in a hurry. It is estimated that they will not be able to support us.”
”It is expected that the number of enemy troops will expand in three months, and finally reach the peak of about 600000. Even if we increase the recruitment and do our best, we can only gather about 200000 soldiers after three months.”
”We have to rely on the dangerous terrain and the city walls to defend.” That's how an experienced officer analyzed it.
”Now it's time to ask the alchemists Association in the county to reinforce the city defense and build the sentry towers along the way.”
”It's our job.” The alchemist with glasses pushed down his glasses. Although the overall standard of the alchemists in nideshire is still far behind that of ruhrner, they are still experienced in the construction of stonework and civil engineering.

Along the way, there are more than 1200 Knights of honor and more than 1200 noble family emblems, which are only a small part of the welcoming team. Behind these two knights of honor, there are 8000 elite Royal Knights who are more than 4 in the extraordinary sequence. They wore silver armor, red and green roses on their chests, and held halberds to isolate the crowd behind them.
With a slight magic wind blowing, the wine red and green rose petals from the air, slowly fell on the long carpet in the center, let the crowd around give out bursts of screams and cheers.

The leader of the team was a knight in gorgeous gold armour and a golden red cape. At the moment, he was not wearing a helmet. His head was a little dull with golden hair, his face had many wrinkles, and his beard was gray.
This seemingly old man with sharp eyes is the Duke of Griffin today. This time, at the invitation of the emperor, he brought his son and daughter to the capital.
According to many people's conjectures, the royal family today may marry the sarius family, the Duke of Griffins. That is to say, a prince will marry the daughter of the sarius family, and the eldest son of the sarius family, jerane, will also marry an imperial princess.
In order to maintain the close relationship between the royal family and the sarius family, and to act as a heavy ballast in the alternation of power, the stability of the Empire was maintained.
For a moment, the situation gathered and the momentum was very strong. The object of public discussion in the imperial capital also changed from the future White Queen to the family of the Griffin Duke.

Wearing silver and gold rimmed armor and riding a high horse behind his father, he raised his right hand and waved it slowly in response to the excited and burning eyes of the one on the street.
Countless noble girls show their gorgeous and bright dresses, which are in full bloom like flowers. They scream and cry, just to attract the eyes of the eldest son of the Griffin, as if the love story in the poem is going to be staged on themselves.
In the face of such a landscape, for the sake of image, jeran had to keep smiling on his face, but unconsciously drifted to the scene in memory, the dark haired girl standing quietly in the slanting light.
Even if you were born in the top of the Empire, there are moments in your life that you can't help
