This name is an ancient legend with far-reaching significance in the ancient legends of the Holy Britannia Empire.
That was in an ancient era that was far away from where the Holy Britannian Empire is now. The people living on the ancient island where the Holy Britannian Empire was born were fighting against the barbarian invasion from the north.
Build a city wall that spans the entire island and is hundreds of kilometers long.
It was named after the general who led its construction at that time - Hadrian's Wall.
With a name of such extraordinary significance, when the Holy Brittanian Empire once faced the crisis of being invaded, it decided to move its imperial capital to the American continent further away from the EU. A building was also named Hard.
Liang's fortress was also built on the coast facing the Atlantic Ocean as the imperial capital settled on the American continent.
Perhaps, when it was founded, the then Emperor of the Holy Brittanian Empire had some ideas.
But in today's era when the Holy Brittanian Empire has dominated the world, this fortress named after Hadrian seems to have lost its assigned mission.
Especially at a time when the flames of rebellion are burning the empire, this fortress that is supposed to protect the imperial capital has become the front line for the culprits who are about to tear the empire apart and launch the sword of rebellion against the imperial capital.
However,
Both sides knew that this fortress, once regarded as the last barrier of the Holy Britannia Empire, would inevitably be violently attacked by the other side.
"Buzz buzz!"
In the dense woods, there was a slight sound of a pulley running at high speed, and there was also a sound of branches being broken.
"Longlegs, keep your voice down!"
A scolding came from the communication channel. The new team members who had finally survived the cruel training of the cold death shrank their heads in fear.
"Got it! Sharp knife!"
A trace of dissatisfaction flashed in the eyes of the young man known as Long Legs, but he still obeyed obediently.
This is a detachment of the Royal Guards Knights that secretly left the imperial capital not long ago.
It is also the first detachment led by Qiligu Chubi, who has just become the first knight of the new Knights of the Round Table.
The members it leads are all elites selected from previous trainees by Qiligu, Fianna and Titania.
Whether in terms of training level or actual combat level, Qiligu and Fiana believed that these elites were already quasi-elite pilots close to the level of the Red Shoulders.
Therefore, Qiligu brought them out.
At the same time, in accordance with the usual course of action of the Red Shoulders, the first detachment he led was placed on the southwest side of Hadrian's Fortress, somewhere in a dense forest, waiting for the best opportunity to attack.
There is really nothing wrong with this arrangement.
But Qiligu seemed to have overlooked one factor.
A factor related to morale.
Lei Mingkai, who led the Royal Guards Knights, became the King of Knights.
As the chief instructor and deputy chief instructor of the Royal Guards Knights, Qiligu, Fianna, and Titania were directly promoted to the new round table that stood above the three armies of the empire as Lei Mingkai became the knight king.
The Cavaliers will divide the top three rankings.
The moment this major news, which was enough to change the structure of the empire's armed forces, came out, it also shocked the Royal Guards Knights, who had been subjected to the inhumane death training of Qiligu, Fianna and Titania, the three "devils" and "Death" instructors.
The members were very excited.
At that moment, even if Qiligu increased the difficulty by 30% on the basis of the original training, he could not offset the enthusiasm of these young knights whose morale was exploding.
Fortunately, this blazing blood did not cause these young knights who were overwhelmed by the blood to cause any trouble in the imperial capital. Qiligu was dragged to the battlefield that was about to become the Shura Hell.
"Perhaps, a few fewer people will die!"
At the end of the dense forest, Qiligu, dressed in camouflage uniform, put down the telescope in his hand and silently assessed in his mind the difficulties faced by the upcoming offensive operation.
"Qili Gu. This is Titania. Please answer when you receive it."
As the sunset gradually set, and the last ray of light was scattered in the dense forest, the communication from a hidden camp more than ten kilometers away was transmitted to Qiligu's earphones.
"Roger that! Please answer."
Qili Gu's words were as concise as ever, and they did not change at all because the other side of the communication was the woman with whom he had the closest relationship.
"Start confirming the combat time now."
Hearing Titania's voice, Qiligu raised his left hand, lowered his gaze, and looked at the mechanical watch tied to his wrist.
Looking at the second hand that seemed to move forward with the beating of his heart, an imperceptible emotion flashed through Qiligu's heart.
This was a gift given to him by Fianna and Titania on the graduation day of the first batch of trainees of the Royal Guards Knights.
Although Qiligu didn't see anything outstanding about this seemingly ordinary mechanical watch, he noticed that Fiana and Titania seemed to be planning something for a certain period of time.
"Ta, Ta, Ta..."
The unique frequency of the second hand driven by the gear made Qiligu's spirit gradually concentrate.
"Set time 1810. Start countdown!"
Titania's voice activated Qiligu's obedience instinct engraved deep in his genes, allowing him to adjust the time that was different from Titania's time in the blink of an eye, and waited for Titania's countdown.
.
"3!"
"2!"
"1!"
"set up!"
When Titania's voice fell, the second hand adjusted by Qiligu jumped again, beating together with the heartbeat that was more than ten kilometers away.
"The time is now 1810! Time synchronization, completed! Titania. The battle starts at 1915, are you ready?"
Qiligu put down his left hand and raised the telescope in his right hand again, carefully observing the fortress in the distance that had become the frontline of the rebellion.
"Everything is ready! It's just that I have a little trouble here."
Qili Gu was silent, but Titania knew that he was listening and waiting for what he said.
However, Titania is not the kind of woman who only yells and vomits bitterness, but a strong woman who is resolute and capable.
"Forget it! That's just a small problem! Just let those little guys see with their own eyes what the battlefield is like! It can be solved!"
"Well, see you later!"
"Well, see you later!"
The darkness of the night gradually fell.
The hunters hidden in the dense forest also quietly started to act as night fell.
Under the increasingly dark night, the lights inside Hadrian's Fortress became brighter and brighter. From its core area to the outer areas, the lights like the bright moon in the night illuminated the surroundings of Hadrian's Fortress, without any trace of anything that could be blocked by the enemy.
Take advantage of the shadows left behind.
On the towering city wall, a well-armed soldier wearing an infrared night vision device was patrolling back and forth at a frequency of three minutes, staring closely at the distance that the light could not illuminate - the patch of light.
If you don't come in, the forest will always be shrouded in darkness.
Those who sent these soldiers to monitor the outer dense forests at this unprecedented patrol rate have reason to believe that as long as any suspected target that can be captured by infrared night vision devices appears, it will be quickly responded to by the defenders in the blink of an eye.
It takes a lot of effort to get rid of it.
Perhaps, this is a bit exaggerated.
But for a man standing in the command center deep in the core area of the fortress, this was necessary.
"Sir, are you making a fuss out of a molehill?"
A wisp of fragrant wind came from behind with the coolness of night, and a charming and soft voice came immediately.
The man looked back, and when he showed the bird mask he was wearing in front of the visitor, he also shook his head.
"No. I don't think it's enough. Ma'am."
The woman called Madam swayed in her red skirt and waved her feather fan as she came to the side of the man in Asuka Mask.
"Not enough? I think you are a little cautious. The situation Her Royal Highness the Princess has put now may have made the little queen panic!"
"Prudent? Haha. Madam, you don't understand! What the significance of Hadrian's Fortress is to Her Majesty the Queen."
After a pause, the man in Asuka Mask laughed a few times.
"Although within the current empire, there are not many nobles who take this fortress seriously. However, the queen is back."
The lady in the red dress frowned slightly, wanting to refute the Asuka Mask man, but couldn't find any reason.
yes!
Even if Queen Euphemia doesn't come, the man who was awarded the title of Knight King will definitely come back.
This is the forward position for attacking the imperial capital, and it is also a trap to lure prey.
"boom!"
Suddenly, there was an earth-shattering roar in the sky.
The sound was so loud that it was like a bolt of thunder that destroyed everything in the world and erupted directly inside the fortress.
In fact, it can be known from the shaking screen and the roar that swept through the room that the fortress may have been attacked.
"Report the situation! Where did the attack come from?!!"
The Asuka Mask man's reaction was nothing short of unpleasant.
But the attack comes faster!
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!"
The moment a shrieking sound ripped through the sky, an earth-shaking shock wave swept through the command center where the masked man and the lady in skirts were.
It was so violent that the main screen responsible for monitoring the dynamic situation around the fortress was extinguished at one point.
During the violent shaking, the command center erupted into wails of pain. At the same time, many determined and fast-moving technicians tried their best to rescue the system that was temporarily shut down due to the attack.
As a result, the picture on the relit main screen horrified the masked man and the lady in the skirt.
In the shaky camera, the Lionheart Knights, who are well known to the people of the empire but rarely appear in the public eye in an organized manner, quickly rushed out of the dense forest shrouded in darkness, in an almost swaggering manner.
Pass the first cordon of Hadrian's Fortress.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Outside the screen, there were bursts of roaring artillery and the roar of anti-armor missiles taking off.
As soon as the Bird Mask Man heard this, he knew that this was the first wave of defensive battle launched by the defenders of Hadrian's Fortress.
However, although the defenders of Hadrian's Fortress moved quickly, the Lion-Hearted Knights who rushed through the first cordon did not notice the dense defensive firepower network.
"Long legs! Don't be so scared that you pee!"
Amidst bursts of flashing gunfire, the Lion-Hearted Knight with his right shoulder painted blood red crossed the ditches and fortifications like lightning, and laughed loudly with his sharp knife, teasing the young knight named Long Legs.
"Shut up! Sharp knife! As a knight, you must not be scared by these children! Moreover, the first knight has already rushed past the third line of defense!!!"
With long-legged eyes full of surprise and admiration, the commanding figure of the Lion-Hearted Knight, who was bright red all over and had a silver lion head on his shoulder, rushed through the heavy artillery fire and rushed under the city wall.
"Boom!"
Amidst the loud explosion, the bright red lion-hearted knight raised his fist and punched the city wall in front of him.
"Buzz!"
The armed punch hidden inside the Iron Fist was instantly activated, and with the powerful power erupted from the high-energy gunpowder inside, it seemed to be strong enough to withstand the swarm attack from the Sunderland, the original main model of the Britannia Empire.
The city wall was smashed into a huge crater that was deep enough to penetrate the city wall.
The city wall was torn apart in the blink of an eye, and the spider web of cracks that spread rapidly around the giant pit frightened the defenders who witnessed this scene.
