Chapter 171: Gathering in the Royal Capital

The next day, fish belly white just appeared in the gray sky.

Xiwei had already put on his armor and hurried to the gate of Rhodes City accompanied by a group of maids.

The streets extending in all directions are filled with soldiers from Luo Ze. They are wearing armor, and the sound of "clang" echoes in the cool morning air.

At this moment, they were seizing the time to gather at the city gate.

Occasionally, soldiers noticed Xi Wei.

They will all stop and salute respectfully.

Then he ran faster.

If the gathering is not completed before the lord arrives at the city gate, he will be whipped.

It is worth mentioning that Xiwei is now followed by four maids.

Ever since he arranged for Roy to be the head maid yesterday, the fox-eared girl immediately put on a homemade maid outfit.

It has to be said that Roy is very ingenious. The lady's armor originally given to her was changed into a maid skirt style.

It looks quite similar to that.

More than 5,000 Rhode City prisoners of war have been dispersed and integrated into Xiwei's existing army.

They have said goodbye to their families in the dungeon and will do their best in the subsequent battles.

Counting the losses from the previous attack on Rhodes City.

Currently, the number of soldiers under Xiwei's command that can participate in the battle has reached more than 26,000.

Most of Count Most's army died during the siege, and only a few hundred knights survived.

By the time Xiwei arrived at the city gate, the soldiers had already assembled, but a group of players still looked like lazy sheep.

Xiwei curled his lips, would he be able to deal with the players? As he explained to the system, all the players soon received a temporary task:

【Ding--】

[Trigger temporary mission: emergency assembly]

[Mission goal: quickly gather at the designated location at the city gate]

[Task description: The Eagle Lord is very dissatisfied with your assembly speed. If you do not line up at the designated location within two minutes, something bad will happen]

[Task reward: Players who assemble within two minutes will receive equipment lottery tickets x 1,500 experience points. Players who have not assembled will be imprisoned in the dungeon and lose the opportunity to participate in the decisive battle in the royal capital]



"Fuck! I haven't put on my pants yet!"

"Quick, quick, quick, just two minutes, and you're still wearing shitty pants."

"Wait for me, brothers..."

Now the players didn't dare to be slow. They immediately rolled and crawled towards the city gate as if they had been beaten to death.

The experience point reward is nothing, but the lottery ticket is a good thing. Furthermore, they cannot accept losing the qualification to participate in subsequent missions.

This is how players behave.

As long as there is a large-scale task, they will immediately get serious.

Two minutes later, the players also came to their seats. Although none of them stood or sat down, at least they were behaved and no trouble was caused.

Under the gray sky, the dark cloud-like army was ready to go.

Xiwei looked around the entire army, fighting spirit poured into his mouth, and issued a majestic order:

"Northeast, urgent march!"

This time he no longer has the Wind Movement scroll.

If you want to reach the location designated by Calante within the specified time, a rapid march is unavoidable.

Now is the cool morning, which is also the best time to march quickly. Only when the scorching sun shines in the sky at noon can Xiwei slow down his marching speed.

It was only when he was about to mount his horse that he realized that Bai Yao and You Ye were standing aside, looking at him eagerly.

Because there are no more horses left...

Xiwei equipped the core forces under his command, such as Clemen, Roy and Loli, with dragon-blooded horses.

They run fast and have good endurance. The key is that they have thick skin and are not easily frightened.

Baine Bloodhoof and Saraken are unnecessary.

The former of them can run better than the dragon-blooded war horse, while the latter may not even have the life characteristic of endurance, and can only travel three to four meters with one step.

What should Bai Yao and You Ye do now?

Xiwei was a little confused.

You can't steal a war horse from one of your knights, right?

They didn't make a mistake.

The knights under Count Most had also tried their best in the previous battles...

The remaining horses in Rhodes City are not good either, they are short and small, and they run very slowly.

After some careful consideration.

Not because the above are all excuses.

Xiwei decided to carry two on his horse, and Roy also rode on his horse and carried one.

Xinghai doesn't need to be taken around, she is always held in the fish tank in Saraken's hand.

In order to avoid hurting Loli, Xiwei wrapped two layers of animal skin in front of his breastplate, and then helped Loli sit in front of him.

Youye activated his skills and turned into a black shadow that merged into Xiwei's shadow.

Roy next to him also helped Bai Yao behind him and sat firmly.

She looked at Loli sitting in Xiwei's arms with envy, regretting that she had gone to learn riding.

But she quickly suppressed this thought.

I think the purpose of learning riding was to help Xiwei take care of her worries. If she didn't know how to ride a horse at this time, Xiwei would be in a difficult situation.

Thinking of this, Roy's little jealousy towards Loli immediately disappeared.



Two days later, Cologne Empire, the outskirts of the royal capital.

A basin ten miles away from the Royal City of Dragon Fire City.

Under Xiwei's deliberate control, his army only arrived at the assembly point at noon on the third day.

The other lords have been waiting here for a long time.

If Xiwei doesn't come by the evening, it means that he will basically not be able to come, and Kalant will give up waiting.

Unlike other lords, he is full of energy and has a neat military appearance.

Xi Wei's subordinates looked a little embarrassed.

The armor was stained with blood and mud, and every soldier looked disgraced.

In fact, this was something he did deliberately.

The other lords tried every possible means to show the strength of their armies in front of the eldest prince, so after the war they would order the soldiers to clean the blood on their armor and tidy up their appearance, giving the eldest prince a feeling that they were fighting effortlessly.

But Xiwei is different. He just wants to hide himself. The more others despise him, the better. It is best to treat him as if he does not exist.

Not to mention that there was Loli sitting in front of him.

The bright and clean armor and the lord with his maid formed a sharp contrast with the waxy and gray-faced soldiers.

It also made the surrounding lords despise Xiwei to the extreme.

They didn't pity the soldiers under Xiwei's command, but felt that Xiwei was nothing more than that, just a straw bag who relied on the strength of his family.

Return the Empire Star, that’s it?

So what if there are more armies?

With such low morale, it was hard to say whether they could withstand a charge from the Royal Capital's Griffin Legion.

Kalant frowned as he looked at Sivi's dejected soldiers, and especially stayed for a long time on the maid sitting in Sivi's arms.

However, he didn't say much. There was no law in the empire that required lords not to bring women into battle, but generally such lords died relatively quickly.

To him, Xiwei was just a junior whom he had met once before. It seemed that he was already a Sky Knight at a young age, and he admired him quite a lot.

Now it seems like that, just like the dandy in the capital.

Kalant thought this in his mind, then flicked his whip and rode his horse to stand in front of Xi Wei.

He is tall and burly, giving people a condescending feeling even when looking at him head-on.

At this moment, his eyes were cold, adding a bit of suffocating pressure, and he asked in a cold voice:

"Where is Count Most?"

Xiwei pretended not to see the scornful or joking looks from the surrounding lords, but looked at Kalant with some fear, made a sad expression, and said in a trembling voice:

"Your Excellency Calant, Count Most is a true warrior. He led the charge and captured the city wall in the battle against Rhodes City."

"But..." Xiwei waited for a long time and finally squeezed out some tears. This was because his eyes were a little sore from being squeezed.

"However, Count Most was unaware for a moment and was unfortunately hit by a destructive magic cannon and died on the spot!"

"He is a hero!"
Chapter completed!
