Chapter 403 (1/2)

Masefield was worried that something might happen outside, but now she is being held with a collar that limits magic and vindictiveness around her neck.

Mesfield, who was reduced to an ordinary person, seemed to be unable to do anything, so he could only do it in a hurry.

At this moment, Hopton, the captain of the Knights of Thorns squadron, stumbled in from outside, still stained with blood, and seemed to have suffered some injuries.

Now that the fairy in the lake has turned into a water monster and occupies the palace, the entire empire is about to become a piece of war.

Hopton felt that the Queen was now unscrupulous, so many people had not evacuated, and directly summoned that kind of monster, not knowing how many people were buried in the water.

However, Hopton still had a conscience. He remembered that Masefield had saved himself. In order to repay this kindness, he deliberately broke into the imperial prison and wanted to rescue the imprisoned first knight.

”Master Masefield!”

”Hopton!? Why are you here?!” Messfield asked suspiciously.

”Master Masefield, there is no time to explain, let's run away!” Hopton raised the sword and cut the chain.

”What happened outside?! Why are you so alarmed!?” Masefield came out of the cage.

”Your Majesty, she summoned an unknown water monster with invincible strength. Although she repelled Duke Rose's army, the entire emperor capital was also in crisis. It was about to sink underground and was sunk by the flood.”

”What!?” Masefield's eyes widened, his face full of horror, an over-frightened reaction.

Unknown powerful water monster?

Could it be the legendary...

Fairy in the lake!

(((? Д?)))

Chapter 44: Mobilization

The news that the Rose Legion was defeated by the fairies in the lake has all been known.

The result of this crusade can be described as unexpected, I thought it would be a complete victory.

But it turned out that the Rose Army failed miserably. The army of 50,000 people had nearly 30,000 casualties!

Only 20,000 soldiers managed to escape, and the rest were either drowned or torn to pieces by the fairies in the lake!

The strong and powerful Qiangwei family was directly injured in this crusade, and its vitality was greatly injured, and it was difficult to organize a second wave of attacks.

As long as there is that huge snake-shaped water monster entrenched in the palace, no matter how many times it will be fruitless.

After all, the power of the fairy in the lake is extremely terrifying, faintly surpassing the peak of the holy rank, it is already difficult to rely on the human sea tactics to pile up.

Unless it is particularly well equipped, there may be a chance to equip 1,000 ultra-high-power magic guided guns.

But the super high-power magic gun is expensive to make, even an empire, I am afraid it is difficult to have more than 10!

A big family like the Qiangwei family, even if they dig out the family, they seem to be unable to buy one.

But ordinary magic cannons can afford it, just like the one that Captain Dennis sank to the bottom of the sea.

At this time, in the temporary headquarters built with tents, the senior officials of the Rose Legion and the Duke gathered together to discuss the next thing.

Merlin was also invited over to listen, sitting quietly in the corner, watching the situation in front of her.

Although Merlin didn't know what Duke Qiangwei meant to let himself listen in, she faintly felt that there would be some trouble calling her door.

This group of officials no longer had the same scenery they had at the beginning, and they were all embarrassed as they fled.

”My lord, what shall we do now?” a subordinate asked.

”What else can I do? Of course, I shouldn't stay here for a long time. We should evacuate quickly. When the Kingdom Army returns, we don't even have a chance to resist.” Another subordinate proposed to retreat. The equipment was destroyed by the goblin in the lake.

Duke Qiangwei kept his face black and did not speak. Although the situation in front of him was the best choice to retreat, he would be regarded as an enemy of the empire even if he returned to Wales. After all, the power was still in the hands of the fake queen.

”Everyone can see the strength of that water monster? It's not something we can defeat at all. We lose a lot with a wave of our hand. No matter how many people are organized, they will go up and die. Why don't we retreat to Wales and seek outside the empire With the help of strength, the opportunity to counterattack is not without.” A subordinate analyzed rationally and agreed with the proposal to withdraw.

”Yeah, if it wasn't for that weird water monster, we would have rushed into the palace long ago. I really didn't expect the royal family to have such a powerful hole card in private. We are not prepared enough to defeat the fake queen.” The elderly subordinate turned to ask Duke Rose, ”My lord, I don’t know what you mean...”

Duke Qiangwei's face was calm, and he seemed to be in a bad mood. The bad situation made him a little helpless.

”The meeting ends first, let me think about it.”

Duke Qiangwei was silent for a long time, and gave a reconsideration reply, feeling that he would strive for some external force.

Upon hearing this, the subordinates got up and left the tent, their expressions a little depressed.

Merlin was a little afraid of trouble, and got up, planning to leave quietly, not wanting to be involved in deeper chaos.

However, Duke Qiangwei took the lead, ”My Excellency Merlin wait a minute, can we sit down and talk?”
