Chapter 351: Gawain's preparations for war

Views:

When the fire in Longwind Fortress was on fire, Gawain was about to end the connection with the satellite.

Although he couldn't see clearly, he could confirm that the border negotiations had ended. Judging from the failure of the two groups to fight, even if the negotiations were not successful, at least they did not turn into a national war. Therefore, after the king returned to Changfeng Fortress, Gao Wen Ready to end focus on that area for now.

Then, the flames rose up.

It was a fire that started inside the fortress, and there was no sign of any external attack from the satellite images. The fire spread in the western part of the fortress, but it never spread beyond the western part. It looked menacing, but it seemed to be The result of human control.

problem occurs.

Gao Wen immediately made a judgment, and then tried his best to adjust the focal length of the satellite lens, but no matter how much he adjusted, due to the aging of the satellite lens itself and the blockage of smoke and flames, he couldn't see clearly what was going on down there. It is certain that tonight, something earth-shaking will happen.

Without hesitation, he called Hetty who was still asleep, and summoned Byron and Knight Philip who were about to rest.

Seeing Gawain's serious and gloomy expression, Hetty was taken aback. She abruptly stopped wanting to yawn, and looked at Gawain curiously: "Ancestor, you summoned us so late. What happened?"

Gao Wen was stunned for a moment. It seemed difficult to explain the source of the news to others, but after a short hesitation, he decisively said: "There is a situation in Changfeng Fortress, and I suspect that Francis II is in danger and fatal. Danger."

"What?!" Byron was so taken aback that his jaw almost clicked. The middle-aged knight's eyes widened. "Lord, your news is reliable... No, how did you know this news?!"

This place is thousands of miles away from Changfeng Fortress, and it is impossible for the situation there to reach Cecil Byron so quickly, but he heard it clearly. Gawain said that Francis II was "in" danger, and his tone seemed to be He just saw something with his own eyes!

"Special news channel," Gawain glanced at Byron with his expression unchanged, and decided to use the most unreasonable logic of "I am your ancestor so I know everything" to ignore this detail, "In short, we have to do Good preparations for the death of the king and even preparations for the death of Prince Edmund."

This astonishing turn of events left the three people in front of Gawain stunned. Knight Philip put his hands on his chest subconsciously and recited the name of the God of War: "Kyle, the God of War...what's going to happen tonight..."

"If the king dies on the eastern border... Anzu will definitely face a war," Hetty began to deduce quickly, "The key now is the relationship between all this and the Typhon people..."

Before Hetty finished speaking, the window of the study was suddenly pushed open by a pair of invisible hands, and a gust of cold night wind swept into the room. Amber's figure jumped lightly from the window sill in front of Gawain. She was panting violently. Out of breath, he obviously rushed all the way back at the fastest speed.

In fact, in order to rush all the way back to the Lord's Mansion from the southernmost point of the Rebellious Fortress, she squeezed her shadow power to the limit for the first time in her life. I ran almost a day and a half in less time!

Amber obviously didn't expect that there would be Hetty and others in Gawain's study, and she swallowed back the information that she was about to shout out, but after noticing Gawain's serious and questioning expression, she still put The words came out: "The king is dead! Prince Edmund killed his father!"

It was Byron who was shocked by Gawain's source just now, and now it was finally Gawain's turn to shock other people's sources. He looked at the half-elf in amazement: "How do you know?"

Is it possible that there is a geosynchronous orbit satellite hanging behind this shame of all things

Amber gasped for a few breaths, managed to catch her breath, but when she spoke, she suddenly struggled with what to say about this matter. One of the kingslayers was brought back to the southern border from the border of the kingdom, and then Solderin and Till beat him to death in a daze... Any one of these things taken alone would seem like a joke Yes, but it all happened!

Finally, she finally sorted out her language: "We found an ancient space rift in the shadow experiment field. The rift is located on the side of the shadow world. I went to check the situation and got through the rift to the Changfeng Fortress. Then I saw the king was killed by an old man. Killed, that Prince Edmund was watching, obviously an accomplice and then I was discovered and had to evacuate quickly, but I didn't expect the old man to follow, but Solderin was in the shadow experiment field Prepared for it, so the old man was shot four times by Soldering's Iron Rangers, and now he is tied into a ball by Tyr... "

"What is this..." Gawain stared at baba's amber dumbfounded, and then quickly realized, "Wait a minute, you said you brought someone here? And caught him alive?!"

"Yes! That's why I'm here to tell you to hurry over and see what's going on!" Amber slapped her head, "You'd better hurry up, that old man is tied up by Tyre, but Tyre's posture is a bit scary, I'm afraid that that sea The caterpillars ate the old man!"

Gao Wen really wanted to bb aloud what a mess this night was, but in order to maintain his image as an old ancestor, he had no choice but to suppress all the complaints in his bronchus, and nodded with a serious face: "I'll go there right away." .”

Then he turned his head to look at Hetty and the others: "Hetty, you go to sort out the list of wartime status immediately, I will try to come back before noon tomorrow, and before that, you call the heads of business, agriculture, and industry in the territory to prepare for an emergency meeting .Byron, Philip, the first regiment of the Combat Corps has entered the highest level of combat readiness, and is ready to upgrade to the state of war at any time. In addition, Philip, you will go to Kant tomorrow and send an order to Knight Walder Peric to order the Second Corps to strengthen its defenses. , especially pay attention to whether there is any change in the aristocratic territory in the northern region, and if so, report it as soon as possible."

The northern part of Kant Territory is Carroll Territory, the main gateway to the Holy Spirit Plain, and it can also be regarded as a buffer zone between the hinterland of the kingdom and the southern border. According to the fire situation inside Changfeng Fortress and the information brought by Amber, Gawain believes that this I am afraid that it is an appalling court struggle, and its danger may even surpass that of the civil strife in the foggy moon. All the nobles in the kingdom will probably be caught in a mess. Although he believed that the southern border, which had been on the edge of the kingdom for a long time, might not be involved in this turmoil soon, he still had to find a way to guard against the threat from the Holy Spirit Plain.

Of course, another reason is that he wants to let the Second Corps, which is not yet stable, have something to do, so as to prevent those knights who have just pledged their allegiance and the former Kant soldiers who have just started training in Cecil's military system from causing problems when the situation changes.

Seeing that Gawain was about to get up and leave, Hetty couldn't help asking: "Do you need to find something for Rebecca? She is Cecil after all..."

Rebecca is currently the only heir of the Cecil family. Although she is neither good at internal affairs nor military, Hetty's traditional aristocratic thinking still makes her feel that Rebecca should also participate in these matters.

Gao Wen took a deep look at Heidi: "Let Rebecca take a good rest, and go to the Institute of Magic Technology tomorrow as usual, and continue to develop vehicle chassis or printing machines. The things she has done are as important as preparing for a war."

Then he added: "Hetty, times have changed, and a person's responsibilities should be determined by ability, not blood."

After putting down these words, Gao Wen and Amber left the Lord's Mansion together.

In the shadow experiment field, Solderin and his soldiers were guarding around the water pool, while the sea monster Tyr still maintained a terrifying and refreshing "sea monster" form, controlling Clement's actions with a large number of tentacles.

But in fact, even if she didn't bind the hapless guy with the tentacles, the latter would hardly have the strength to resist or escape.

The power of the four explosive shots is no joke. After the forced life extension effect of echinoderm and life conversion ended, the unprecedented weakness almost killed Clement directly. If Tyr hadn't found his "prey" in time Slowly dying, Clement would probably be a corpse by this time.

"Let me tell you, don't die," Tire kept patting Clement's face with a tentacle, waking up the tranced enemy again and again. Miss Siren's tone was full of Worried, "If you die in my hands, I will never have to count on those 'biscuits' collected by Gao Wen..."

Apparently, the Siren lady still hasn't given up on killing the corpse of the "God of Nature" in Gawain's hand...

With a strange expression, Solderin watched Tire hang the prisoner with just the right healing technique time and time again, and used his tentacles to interact with the prisoner in a weird way, and couldn't help asking: "You really don't think you Can this form itself scare people to death?"

Tyre looked down at his scale-covered upper torso and the hideous tentacles on his lower body, with a mask on his face: "I don't think our sisters over there will do this..."

Solderin muttered helplessly: "...what kind of aesthetics do you sea monsters have..."

"Whoever can change more looks is the most beautiful," Tyre replied naturally, "Anyway, everyone can change shape, and the usual appearance is to grow randomly..."

Gao Wen arrived at such a strange situation.

The first time he entered the shadow experiment field, he saw Tyre, who occupied the entire water pool, with a huge body and a strange shape, and Tyre's twisting and twisting tentacles that were bigger than octopuses.

His first reaction was whether he wanted to live a san hek...

"You'd better not stare at her tentacles," Amber, who was following Gao Wen, reminded loudly, "The patterns in those tentacles are very evil, as long as you stare at them, your mind will be affected immediately, and then You become a very positive, cheerful and energetic person for at least two hours... ”

Gao Wen: "???"

What a mess!
