Chapter 51: The War is Approaching

Chapter 51 War is approaching

Early morning, lakeside.

With a loud shout, Mai Ya'er leaped into the air, took two quick steps on a big tree, her graceful and soft body turned around among the falling leaves, held her sword in place, and shot towards Roy on the ground.

Roy smiled and looked at the oncoming sword light, standing still. It wasn't until the tip of Mai Yaer's shaking sword finally settled in front of his eyes that he swayed, avoided the long sword, and made a backhand hook.

He grabbed Ma Ya'er's wrist and used the momentum to throw her out.

"Big head, don't move!" Ma Ya'er somersaulted in the air and landed on a tree trunk as thick as a bowl.

For a moment, she saw the halo of light under her feet rotating rapidly, turning the rebounding force of the curved tree trunk into a stream of light, which shot straight from the soles of her feet to the tip of the sword, and her straight body was shot back like an arrow from the string.

"Then you're not allowed to move?" Roy waited until Mal'er's moves had become old and no longer changed, then he fell to the ground and kicked Mal'er with his feet.

"You've been fooled!" Mal'er snorted coldly, spun her body in the air, and the long sword changed from stabbing to slashing, and went straight to Roy's chest.

Seeing that Roy fell to the ground and was unable to escape, Malya'er's mouth curved up with a seductive and proud arc. Unexpectedly, Roy's face showed a familiar evil smile in his field of vision. Then he slapped his palm on the ground, and his body felt like rubbing.

The bamboo flew away from her side like a flying dragonfly. In the blink of an eye, it had changed positions.

Poof, Mai Ya'er couldn't hold back his momentum, and struck the ground with his sword. Then he felt a pain in his buttocks, and his whole body was trampled to the ground from the air.

Oliver, who was watching the battle on the sidelines, shrank and lay on the ground with a groan, covering his eyes with his paws.

"Big Head!" Ma Yaer, who was lying on the ground with a big word in his name, was so angry that his face was red. He stared at Roy, wishing he could rush up and fight this bastard.

"Maiyar, are you really a three-star armed knight?" Roy fell to the ground with a surprised and innocent look on his face.

"No! Roy, please tell me the truth." Malyaer jumped up, angry and suspicious, and said: "What are you training at the lake every day these days? How come your strength has grown so fast?"

"Don't you know the Dragon Slaying Technique?" Roy lied without batting an eyelid, looking as honest as possible.

"I don't believe it!" Mai Ya'er curled her lips.

Ever since she woke up that night fifteen days ago and saw Roy making a mess in the courtyard while practicing Kung Fu, she had strictly prohibited Big Head from practicing Kung Fu in the yard.

He told her that this small courtyard was her first warm little home after coming to Redemption Continent, and it was a precious treasure. For more than ten days, whether Roy was practicing outside or working in the mission hall, she did not follow him.

Instead of going, I stayed in the small courtyard, learning to cook and take care of flowers and plants.

Staying here is much more breathable than staying in the big-headed clothes!

But she didn't expect that in such a short time, Roy's fighting spirit would reach the eighth level, and his combat skills would improve even more rapidly, and he could actually play around with her, a three-star armed knight!

Is this okay? You must know that in a desperate situation, as long as the use of magic is stipulated, Miss Malt can bully the big head at will!

The psychological gap is huge!

"You must be hiding something from me!" Mal'er walked up to Roy, looked at him up and down, rolled her eyes, took his arm, and said in a tired voice: "Say it quickly!"

The air by the lake is clear and the scenery is picturesque.

Mai Ya'er was wearing a beautiful lace white silk top and tight swordsman pants. She was dripping with sweat from repeated sparring. The clothes stuck tightly to her bumpy body, outlining her graceful and seductive curves. This move

Holding hands, the pert and round breasts press on the arms, which makes people's blood pumping and making it difficult to control themselves.

Damn little goblin!

Roy was already in his prime of life. Being pressed softly against Mai Yaer's chest made Roy's heart beat faster, his mouth became dry, and he felt helpless.

Among the major races in the continent of Avalon, dark elves are known for their natural charm, cunning and dissolute character, and their uninhibited attitude toward men and women.

In the past, Roy thought this was just one of the slanderous rumors between the naturally hostile camps. But after more than a year of contact with Mal'er, he discovered that even though Mal'er was just a little girl among the elves, she had not accepted the coming-of-age ceremony from the dark elves.

The charm is awakened, but when she occasionally reveals a little bit of her true nature, it is enough to make people unable to bear it.

Men most like women to be dignified in front of others and seductive and debauched in front of themselves. The highest state of charm is not naked sensuality, but the amorous feelings revealed intentionally or unintentionally.

These things, Ma Ya'er is simply self-taught.

Especially over the past year or so, with the growth of age and familiarity with each other, the little girl's first form body has become more and more mature, and at the same time, this aspect has also become more and more serious. In the past, she occasionally teased herself, and she was quite a bit

Sorry, but now, this has simply become her favorite game.

Cowardly, holy, pure, charming, dignified, and dissolute. She knows how to dress up without a teacher. But she never changes from her original style, which always makes you think and be fascinated.

"Tell me, okay?" Ma Ya'er put her head on Roy's shoulder and breathed like orchid. Her beautiful eyes were so soft that they could drip water.

"Going to the mission hall!" Roy bit his tongue before forcing himself to wake up, break free from Malt's snake-like arms, and hurried away without saying a word.

"Hmph!" Mal'er snorted as she saw Roy running away. He looked down at his charming curves under the tight-fitting silk clothes, feeling proud and shy at the same time, and giggled.

After leaving home, along the lakeside path, and just passing through a small forest, Roy could already feel the breath of the four Red Leaf Knights.

"Brother Ivan, morning."

As usual, Roy stopped and walked towards a big tree in the forest.

"Morning, Roy." Ivan, wearing a black chainmail suit and a hooded knight's coat, came out from behind the big tree and said with a smile.

With the appearance of Ivan, the three heroes also appeared from different directions.

"Hi, Jim, Jackson." Roy greeted them respectively. With a pleasant and polite smile on his face: "Good morning."

Although they haven't talked much these days, Roy has formed a tacit understanding with several Red Leaf Knights.

When Roy returns to the lakeside courtyard, the four knights will stay outside the grove. When he enters the city, Ivan will follow him quietly, and the other three knights will respond to his orders.

Asked to be responsible for protecting Malt and Oliver.

Although Ivan and others, who are knights of the Carré family, protect Roy closely because their master Philip cannot disobey it. But for Roy, Philip is Philip and he is himself. He feels that he is not allowed to because

The other party is just a servant of Philip, and there is no slight or insult to them.

Grandpa William once said that knighthood is not only a profession, but also an attitude towards life and a noble spirit that cannot be trampled upon.

Humility, honesty, loyalty, bravery, justice, mercy, integrity, sacrifice, etiquette, freedom and glory are always what knights need to uphold.

No one is perfect, and no one can have all the virtues in one person.

However, persistence and abandonment are different.

A man should take the initiative to cultivate these qualities in himself. Even if he can only achieve some of them, even if he is just a civilian, he is worthy of trust and respect.

And those who discard these qualities like nothing, or even laugh at them, no matter how noble their status is and how powerful they are, people will still see despicability and ugliness under his gorgeous and majestic body.

Roy never considered himself a noble person.

However, he has his own bottom line and persistence.

"Good morning, Roy." The red leaf knights showed friendly smiles on their faces.

In the past ten days or so, they had only spoken to Roy on their hands. But every morning, there would inevitably be such a simple but pleasant conversation.

It was just a greeting, but it represented respect to the four knights of the Kalei family.

After getting along for more than ten days, even Jackson, the most unruly of the four, had to admit that although the things Roy did on weekdays and the elf that suddenly appeared next to him felt a bit mysterious and even weird. However,

, he likes this young man with a beautiful smile.

"Are you still going to the city today?" After greetings, Ivan, who had always been taciturn, asked Roy unexpectedly.

"Yeah," Roy was a little surprised, nodded and said, "Same as usual."

"Roy," Ivan said after hesitating, "I think you should be more careful. Meiding City is not very peaceful right now. If possible, I suggest you go to Munich City. We can arrange transportation for you."

"Oh? What happened?" Roy, who had been paying attention to the battle reports on the front line, felt his heart sink. In recent days, Fei Lie Rangers and scouts have appeared more and more frequently in the southern part of Meiding City.

"Yesterday, our scouts discovered the main force of the Feili people, a thousand-man battalion of the Fifth Army and two knight brigades under Archduke Adolf, and they had already fought with them. They were just 20 kilometers south." Ivan

road.

Roy was startled and asked: "How is the battle going?"

"Not very optimistic." Ivan shook his head and said, "It just temporarily delays the enemy."

"Didn't Mr. Philip detect this news a long time ago?" Roy asked puzzledly: "I thought Archduke Adolf would solve it in advance after receiving the information."

Ivan frowned and said: "The troops in Adolf's hands are already stretched to defend the entire Lulian. There are not many troops that can be mobilized in this direction. Moreover, he is also afraid of being diverted by the enemy. So he must wait until it is confirmed that the enemy's main force is in this position.

, will come here.”

"Two thousand-man battalions have arrived this morning, as well as hundreds of mercenaries and a squadron of the Bavarian Knights, stationed just outside Meding City." Jim on the side said: "When we came here in the morning, we saw

There are many more soldiers in the city. They are all under Archduke Adolf."

"Then it should be no problem. There is also the Fifth Army. This line is originally their defense zone." Roy breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's impossible to say." Jim curled his lips and said: "The commander of the Fifth Army is the third-level general Marquis Perry. He is good at fighting, but he has always been stubborn. Two months ago, he was ready to give up the United States.

In Dingcheng, the walls were fortified and the wilderness was cleared. The defense line was placed in the northeast of the Wenge Viscounty, saying that it was to lure the enemy deep into the city and lengthen the enemy's supply line.

Last time Lord Philip finally managed to find out the information about the Phillies. As a result, Archduke Adolf sent someone to ask him to shift the focus of defense to Meding City as soon as possible. He immediately refused. He replied that in order to defend Meding City, he would fight with the enemy.

There is no need to fight a war of attrition. I don’t know what will happen this time.”

"Logically speaking, since Archduke Adolf has sent troops, he must have discussed it with Pelli. Otherwise, sending such a small number of people would be a sure way to die." Ivan said to Jim: "But no one can do anything about the war.

I don’t know, but for safety reasons, it’s better to go to Mani City first.”

Roy scratched his head.

He wasn't too worried about the Feili people. After all, since Solan's army was prepared, it was impossible for the enemy to besiege the city just because they wanted to. There was still plenty of time.

Moreover, he still has something very important to do.

However, out of caution, he thought for a while and decided: "Brother Ivan, don't accompany me today. Help me take care of this place. I'll go to the city to do some things. We'll leave as soon as the things are done."

.Anyway, the first training camp starts in more than 20 days, so I have to prepare early."

Ivan thought for a while, nodded and said: "Well, you should be careful. We will wait for you here. Your elf girl will be left to us. As long as we are here, a hair of hers will be indispensable."

Roy thanked him, parted ways with Ivan and others, and walked quickly towards the city center.

As soon as he stepped onto the street, he found that, just as Jim said, there were many more soldiers on the street.

There were regular soldiers wearing standard armor and uniforms, mercenaries wearing various armors and costumes, and groups of knights and militiamen pushing and pulling oxcarts.

No matter what kind of clothes they wore, the coats of arms and numbers they wore or painted with paint clearly showed their identity - the Lulian Legion under Archduke Adolf.

In the continent of Avalon, the political and military systems of the three major empires are roughly the same.

The entire national system is like a huge pyramid. The top of the tower is naturally the royal family. This family owns all the land and power.

In addition to retaining these lands and powers, the royal family usually entrusts most of them to the lower nobles to gain the support of this class.

The big nobles who accept power and land will assume the obligation to serve the royal family. But at the same time, they will also distribute the land, power, and the obligations they need to bear to the smaller nobles.

Thus, the pyramid was formed.

Generally speaking, nobles need to be armed in order to protect their territories. However, in order to stabilize the imperial power, only the royal family can possess regular armies. Nobles at all levels can only maintain a limited number of private armed forces and summon the following small forces in time of war.

Nobles or knights with fiefdoms came to fight for themselves.

During non-war times, any nobleman privately gathering more than a thousand-man battalion would be regarded as treason.

However, the wisdom of nobles is infinite.

Since it is impossible to form a professional army in the territory, the nobles simply put their own force into mercenaries and knights.

Many knights and mercenary groups today are independent groups in name, but in fact they are private armed forces privately maintained by the great nobles.

In addition to setting up office branches in the city, they cannot own cities or land, and cannot gather in large groups. All activities must be within the rules set by the royal family. In addition to accepting some commissioned work, they also operate some industries from time to time.

You must obey the orders of the royal family or the knight's palace.

Although it seems that the great nobles spent a lot of money on the knights, they usually have little effect. But once a war breaks out, these knights and mercenary groups can immediately become the main force of the nobles' armed forces.

Just like Archduke Adolf's Bavarian Knights and Coastal Mercenaries, as soon as the war broke out, they immediately gathered under the Archduke's command and fought against the Phillies. The speed was countless times faster than the royal corps and knights.

.

Therefore, the composition of these Lurian legionnaires on the streets is very complex. They include the Munich City Guards directly under the Grand Duke, the Bavarian Knights and the Coast Mercenary Group, as well as nobles from more than 300 large and small noble territories in the Lulian Province.

And their private soldiers, and even paid mercenaries.

When these uniform signs, but all kinds of soldiers appeared on the streets of Meiding City, the whole city of Meiding suddenly became tense and busy.

On the way to the mission hall, Roy saw soldiers running back and forth along the way.

A large number of baggage vehicles were like running water. Some soldiers were gathering, while others were sitting on the roadside to rest, wiping their weapons and shields.

From time to time, there would be soldiers wearing white medical vests, carrying stretchers and driving horse-drawn carriages to transport the injured to the treatment center.

All the soldiers and knights under the command of Baron Smith, the lord of Meiding City, were also dispatched. Looking up, the originally empty city wall was already filled with soldiers on guard and civilians transporting supplies.

Walk, watch, and listen.

By the time he reached the city's central square, Roy had a deeper understanding of the current situation.

From the people who gathered in front of the bulletin board, on the roadside, and in the square, he knew that the Lulian Legion members were now stationed outside Meding City, cutting down trees and building camps. They were at odds with Meding City.

This was to prevent the enemy from laying siege to the city of Medin before the main force of the Fifth Army and Archduke Adolf arrived.

The fighting on the front line continues. The situation looks very bad. From time to time, wounded people are being sent down from the front line like a stream.

The troops originally stationed on the defensive line south of Meiding City are retreating while fighting. It is estimated that it will not be long before the war reaches Meiding City.

Now, Baron Smith has imposed martial law on the city. Only the city gates are allowed to go out, but no one is allowed to enter. At the same time, a recruitment order was issued to recruit the mercenaries in Meiding City to join the newly formed ragtag army. And there is news that the city is determined to defend to the death.

Archduke Adolf, who is on the front line of Meding City, is also on his way to Meding City.

Hurrying into the central square, Roy was about to cross the street to the mission hall when he suddenly heard an earth-shattering noise and roar.

Turning around, I saw hundreds of people gathered in front of the church in the dusty square, roaring and cursing in unison, and the crowd was furious.

church?

Roy's heart moved, and he turned subconsciously, following the tidal flow of people and squeezing into the crowd.
