After waking up from the violent concussion, Kaglisi subconsciously touched his forehead, which was full of blood. However, he carefully checked his body and found that although there was no pain in any part, No trauma.
He groaned, and pushed away the gravel that was pressing on him, only to realize that the blood on his body was flowing in from outside—a completely stiff corpse was lying face down on the gravel. The knight in armor, and the emblem of the Ophelia family on the gray armor.
Caglisi’s brain was in a mess, but he subconsciously checked whether the knight was still alive. There was no doubt that the other party had died of breath for a long time. The fatal injury was a penetrating injury on the back, which directly shred the heart and Lung lobe.
He touched the rolled armor with his hand, thinking in his heart, this could never be the wound caused by the explosion, which showed that someone artificially created the explosion and attacked the guards of the earl’s mansion.
There was a sudden shock in Caglisi's heart. He immediately thought of who the target of these people was, was it the Grand Duke Lantonilan, or the little prince
broken.
He is the accompanying military attache in this envoy, and as the captain of the White Lion Guard that arrived in Lantoniland with the envoy, it is his natural duty to protect the safety of His Royal Highness Haruze. If something happens to the little prince in this attack, not only will he die and see no goodbye, but he will also be a sinner of Eruin.
Thinking of this, Kaglisi broke out in a cold sweat almost immediately, and the pain on his body seemed to disappear instantly. He turned over and stood up from the ground, picked up the knight's sword, and walked out of the courtyard.
There was no one in the courtyard, and the half-collapsed Earl's mansion was still burning, making the sound of something breaking from time to time, and dozens of knights' corpses were scattered far and near. Caglisi couldn't help taking a breath when he saw this, and he had a new estimate of the scale of the attack in his heart.
He suddenly thought of something, and put his hand into his pocket, where there was a ruby pin. The ruby on it was actually a transmission crystal that could be used to contact each other within a certain distance. Turning out the pin, Kaglisi pressed his hand on the metal base of the ruby and the pin, but his brain was buzzing in confusion, and he tried several times but failed to stimulate the gem's effectiveness.
Just when he was a little anxious, an exclamation came not far away:
"Mr. Cagliice!"
Cagliice raised his head instantly.
I saw Haruze running towards this direction with Mikaya: "Mr. Cagliaris, you are fine."
"This should be right for me," Cagliice felt as if he had come back to life again. He looked up and down at the future king of Eruin, and then confirmed that the other party was indeed unscathed. He breathed a sigh of relief: "Where have you been, Your Highness Haruze?"
"Micaya saved me." Haruze replied, while introducing: "She is Micaya, and the teacher knows her."
In fact, the last time they met Mikaya in Shallow Water Town was only one-sided, but Haruze knew that his eldest princess did not like to mix with people of unknown origin. When he introduced this way, he was a little guilty.
But Kaglisi didn't care, he was only a little surprised that his lord would know this little girl. He took a closer look at the latter, and thought that she was really a beauty, but he said: "Thank you very much. , This little Miss Mikaya."
In front of the stranger, Mikaya behaved very well. She lifted her skirt and saluted Kaglisi generously.
"Mr. Cagliaris, this is probably a premeditated attack." Haruze told him what he had seen before.
Kaglisi frowned. He had expected it, but when he heard that the attacker was from Bugga, he couldn't help feeling tricky.
In the common people's impression, the Bujas are the descendants of silver, not to mention the wizards, they are natural powerhouses. Their empire in the sky is out of reach for mortals. Of course, at this time, not many Eruins, including Kaglisi, know the fact that the Buja’s sky empire has been destroyed. .
But in any case, it is a suffocating thing to compete with such a behemoth.
But he was full of doubts. The relationship between Tonigel and Buga has always been very good. The Buga also helped Lord Lord build a fleet, not to mention the relationship between Tulaman and Eruin itself. Could it be that when Grand Duke Lantonilan offended the Bugans and caused revenge
But this doesn't seem to explain why the other party is looking for the little prince.
"What shall we do next, Mr. Cagliice?" Haroze asked.
Cagliari looked back in the direction of the earl’s mansion. The main entrance of the collapsed earl’s mansion opened. The corpses of several knights were faintly visible in the hall. It seemed that the Duke of Lantoniland should have left first, and the attacker headed in that direction. Pursue the past.
But what made him a little strange was why the other party was interested in Elara—the newborn girl.
"If all this is true," he replied, "then Bernichell may not be safe anymore. It is indeed not an easy task for us to escape from here. Your Highness Haruze, yours Good idea. If they can contact Mr. Eco, they are indeed a feasible way. Although the place has been attacked, the Lantonilans still have an army in Bernicel..."
He stopped and couldn't help complaining: "Unfortunately, I don't know where they went, and I don't know where Miss Lesmeca and her friends have gone, and of course the damn bastard Star!"
"Mr. Caglisi, Mikaya may have a way." Haruze said suddenly.
"Huh?" Kaglisi looked at the little girl.
The little girl nodded, and replied with a grinning voice: "My lord, we can leave Bernicele through the sewer. I know there is a way to the Hind Lake in the Aruche Forest."
"Sewers?" Caglisi remembered that Aluche was once Lantonilan's military fortress to Vieiro. Complete sewers and defense facilities were built here, but that was at least a century ago. He couldn't help being a little surprised: "How did you know?"
Mikaya lowered her head and whispered, "That's my home."
"My God," Kaglisi couldn't help but sighed, "Poor boy, how come Lord Lord didn't take you away? It's better for you to be in Tonigel than here."
"That's not to blame Mr. Brando," Micaya replied, "I don't want to. My father and mother are here, and I don't want to leave them."
Kaglisi shook his head, but Haruze looked at Mikaya suspiciously, feeling that the latter was not telling the truth.
At least when did she meet the teacher again
But in any case, Kaglisi agreed to this proposal. They don’t know how many attackers Bernichell has, and the situation in the town is not clear. The best choice is to leave this place of right and wrong temporarily, especially It was Haruze's identity that could not tolerate any loss.
But Haruze was still a little worried about Star, but Kaglisi didn't take it seriously: "That guy disappeared early in the morning, and God knows where it went."
"But… "
"It's nothing, His Royal Highness Haruze, no matter how Stalta is a dragon, it's hard for a cowardly dragon to have any problems." Kaglisi mentioned the words'cowardly and fearful'. At that time, the tone was full of sarcasm: "Miss Lesmeca and the others were not at the banquet. The impact should be minimal. Now we should move to a safe place as soon as possible, and then contact them, lest they worry about us twice. Risk involved."
Haruze nodded and agreed to the proposal.
…
The Violet Earl’s Mansion was originally transformed from the barracks of the Bernicel Fortress. Although it has been overthrown and rebuilt since the years of Iron Feather, the internal structure still retains many original designs. In addition to defensive considerations, it is also In order to be used as a temporary shelter.
Obviously this kind of function came in handy today. Although it collapsed on the surface, the area inside the earl’s mansion is still surprisingly large. Corridors and various cloisters are winding around. It would be easy for someone who is familiar to lead the way. Get lost in it.
But for its original owner, this obstacle naturally did not exist, and Eco soon took his wife and daughter into a road leading to the basement in the mansion.
The light in the corridor looked very dim, and the doors of many rooms were wide open. The maids and attendants had escaped cleanly at the beginning of the turmoil, but Eco didn’t know how many people could escape safely, nor did he know. How many invaders are there in the town of Bernichell at this moment.
The patrol cavalry and the town guard have not moved so far, which made his heart sink straight. Outside the Earl’s mansion was Bernichell's supposedly peaceful night. But this night was not peaceful. The flashes from time to time in the night sky, the screams of killing from far away, and the howls of despair made this restless and depressing night particularly heavy.
He took his wife, Yura, through the long corridor, with only two entourages by his side. Fortunately, there was also a nurse in the mansion who had not had time to escape, now holding their daughter Elala.
It is strange to say that in such an atmosphere, the baby girl went to sleep soundly, as if not affected by the surrounding environment at all. When Eco looked back from time to time to see his daughter's quiet face, his heart was calmer.
He held his wife's hand tightly, feeling the warmth coming back from Yula's hand, Yula also said nothing, but all his feelings were already silent.
