The tide of monsters came so suddenly that the city was in chaos.
However, after the empress learned the news in advance, she ordered her Knights of Holy Light to build a defense line in the wide civilian area as quickly as possible. In just a dozen minutes, they used the warlocks' earth magic to build a seven-meter-high wall, which was enough to serve as a temporary defense barrier.
This is the powerful productivity of warlocks.
boom!
Outside the city, a mushroom cloud rose into the sky, accompanied by broken limbs and corpses.
"Very good. These clay bombs sent by His Majesty are really useful. They have successfully helped us resist three waves of monster invasions. It's rare that all of our members are still in full condition."
The red-haired woman nodded with satisfaction, flapped her huge wings and landed on the top of the city wall, holding the steel sword in both hands, her eyes sharp.
This creature is actually a mixed-race, with long red hair, a proud and dignified face, and red facial lines. She has a wild beauty that is different from that of humans.
The most eye-catching thing is the pair of huge red wings behind her.
The leader of the Knights of the Holy Light. Since she has no human name, people call her the Red Dragon.
A girl who can fly and breathe fire!
"Report to the captain, there are currently no monsters surviving outside the city."
Deputy Captain Beren carried the giant axe and exclaimed: "Thanks to your majesty's wisdom and advance preparations, otherwise even our Holy Light Knights might have suffered some casualties."
"Yes, these clay bombs can not only be thrown, but also buried underground."
The captains discussed among themselves: "It would be great if it could be used on the battlefield!"
"Not necessarily. If it's buried underground, I think it can only be used against these brainless monsters. If it's really on the battlefield, it will definitely be predicted by the enemy's psychic sorcerer."
Someone said: "But clay bombs can indeed save a lot of physical strength for warlocks, and can also make up for the fact that some assassin-type warlocks do not have the ability to kill in a large area."
"Who invented this thing? What a talent! Is it the Truth Society?"
"I think it was the Valerius family? I can't remember who it was exactly."
Someone shook his head.
Fran listened to her teammates' discussion and muttered, "Strange. Licinius said that this was just something he made by accident. How come there are so many of them? Could it be that the Valerius family has cracked the method of mixing clay bombs over the years? Has it achieved mass production? Isn't this plagiarism of Licinius's wisdom?"
She felt somewhat dissatisfied and was about to step forward with her sword in hand to argue with her teammates.
"Okay, shut up!"
The red dragon shouted: "Everyone assemble!"
The knights' expressions became stern, and they all lined up amid the clanking sounds of their armor.
They half-knelt on the ground with their hands on their chests.
"According to His Majesty's order, this front line will be temporarily guarded by the Third Garrison Army."
Red Dragon looked down at the message in the communication mirror with a solemn expression, and then ordered: "We will go to the inner city immediately to pick up the state's confidential personnel!"
"Yes, sir!"
The knights nodded.
Fran also half-knelt on the ground, with her right hand against her chest, and said suspiciously: "A confidential national official? Could it be that fat-headed Mond? No wonder, was it really him who provided the clay bomb?"
o
There was chaos in the city of Roma, but some people found a blessing in disguise.
"Uncle, I'm really going to be angry this time!"
Mond yelled, "I order you guys to take me to the military headquarters for refuge immediately! If you don't protect me well, if anything goes wrong in the negotiations with the Empire, you will be held responsible! I am the Minister of Foreign Affairs, how could I take refuge in a shabby place like the civilian area? Are you crazy?"
He held his stupid son's hand, with an arrogant and proud look on his face.
The officers in charge of the escort were too lazy to pay attention to him and shouted, "Go..."
"I advise you to be nicer! The military will soon come to wipe out these monsters. When that happens, neither you nor my damn nephew will have a good ending!"
Mond said arrogantly: "Oh, if I see His Majesty, you will die!"
The officers all had poker faces and didn't want to pay any attention to him.
Originally, they were going to go to the secret base of the Control Bureau to lock up the fat guy.
However, they unexpectedly encountered a tide of monsters along the way.
They could only passively evacuate to civilian areas.
Because several other areas have been occupied by monsters.
This group of monsters seemed to have been driven crazy. The purpose of their attack was not to plunder, but simply to kill. They were like a group of berserkers who had lost their minds. It was simply a disaster.
Just then, they encountered another huge crowd.
"Oh wow, how come this is such a coincidence?"
Li Xini was helped around the corner and saw the familiar bloated figure in front of him. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "We meet again, my uncle."
Noren supported him, his face expressionless like a killer.
"It's you! Licinius!"
Mond's face suddenly changed: "You are so lucky! You are still alive!"
"You seem disappointed."
Licinius shrugged.
"Why should I be disappointed? Although I don't know how you colluded with the Administration Bureau and accused me of a false crime, His Majesty and the military will soon come to take over this city."
Mond said: "Will you still have something good to eat when the time comes?"
His stupid son seemed to understand and felt that he had the advantage, and glared at him fiercely.
"Yeah?"
Licinius couldn't help laughing.
Lucimia frowned and whispered, "Hey, this is indeed a bit troublesome. Do you really have evidence that he is plotting something bad? What if the military or His Majesty asks for accountability?"
Once he was taken to the Control Bureau and tortured severely, there was no fear that he would not confess.
But the problem is that we have no evidence at the moment.
Licinius comforted him: "Don't worry..."
boom!
The wind is howling...
I saw a black shadow with huge wings on its back floating in the air. From the streets behind, I could hear sharp and rapid footsteps, the sound of armor rubbing against each other, and the sound of swords being unsheathed.
"Prioritize the protection of confidential national personnel!"
A loud shout was heard in the sky.
Lisda looked up at the sky and said in a deep voice: "Red Dragon! This is the Knights of Holy Light!"
Allen and the others looked relieved.
The Knights of Holy Light are His Majesty's personal guards and possess extremely powerful combat capabilities.
In the dark alley, knights in silver-white armor filed out one after another. Each of them exuded a powerful aura, which was the fighting spirit honed through countless trials and tribulations on the battlefield.
The swords shone coldly and the iron armor clanged.
"Hahaha! Here it comes!"
When Mond saw this group of people, he felt more familiar with them than seeing his own dead parents. He immediately jumped up and called out, "I'm here, come and save me! There's a group of unruly people here who want to rebel and murder important state officials! Quickly take them all down and teach them a lesson!"
At this moment, he felt like he had seen his savior.
From being full of vigor and ambition at the beginning when he arrived in Roma City, to being stunned by his nephew's three-axe attack.
Now, things have turned around and I finally turned things around!
Among the Holy Light Knights, Fran had a complicated expression. He saw the silver-haired boy in the crowd.
I also saw that damn fat uncle.
I felt very embarrassed for a moment.
Subjectively, she didn't want to protect the fat man.
However, His Majesty's orders are greater than heaven...
"Tsk, the villain is getting ahead."
Lucimia and the officers behind her looked a little unhappy.
This fat guy really got a chance to make a comeback.
But even so, Your Majesty can't do anything to them.
After all, the Administration is an institution independent of any national system.
Then we can say we caught the wrong person.
Mond showed an extremely proud expression, and he had already thought about how to deal with this group of people.
However…
"Someone wants to murder a key national security official?"
A fierce light flashed in the red dragon's eyes.
boom!
A strong wind blew in her face and she fell heavily to the ground.
Mond was knocked to the ground by the strong wind and rolled over.
The Red Dragon led his Holy Light Knights and walked straight past the fat man without even looking at him. He walked to the front of the crowd and asked, "Who is Mr. Valerius Licinius?"
"It's me." Licinius nodded.
After confirming their target, the captains of the Holy Light Knights immediately spread out like wings and looked around.
Protecting him secretly.
Fran was stunned in the crowd.
What's going on? Didn't we agree to protect state confidential personnel
"According to His Majesty's order, the Holy Light Knights will escort you into the camp."
The red dragon glanced at the young man and said, "And arrange for a priest to treat you."
Licinius shrugged: "Oh..."
Fran: “Eh hey hey?”
At the same time, Mond stood up with difficulty, supported by his stupid son: "Uncle, I..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw a burly figure standing in front of him, looking ferocious and ferocious.
"What did you say?"
Without saying anything, the knight put his spear to his head and asked coldly, "Who wants to murder Mr. Valerius Licinius? Explain the details clearly."
Chapter 58 Its name is, Truth (Part 3)
At this moment, people finally knew who the so-called confidential state personnel were.
Moreover, His Majesty has to order the Knights of Holy Light to come in person to support us!
This means that in the eyes of His Majesty, Licinius is far more important to the empire than a diplomatic ambassador, hence the obvious difference in treatment. The former is surrounded and protected by the Knights of Holy Light, while the latter is pointed at with a spear, like a porcupine waiting to be slaughtered.
"Wait a minute, did you guys make a mistake?"
Mond seemed to realize something, revealing a ridiculous expression. With a last tentative mentality, he shouted: "I am Valerius Mond! A member of the Valerius family, a noble among nobles, and a diplomatic ambassador! I am the real state confidential personnel!"
He roared, "Assholes! The ones who wanted to attack the country's confidential personnel were my damn nephew and the hateful woman he raised! They are the ones you should deal with!"
Knight: “…”
"You may have some misunderstanding about the state confidential personnel."
