"Put it away," Roy read through it and handed the account book to Mal'er, "This is our family's capital."
When she heard the words "our family", Mai Yaer's eyebrows lit up with joy. She glanced at Roy coquettishly, took the account book and put it in a box and locked it. Her face looked satisfied, just like a housekeeper.
Owner..
Roy smiled and shook his head.
The dark elves are a race that has both demonic evil and debauchery in their nature, as well as the freedom and arrogance of the elf nature. But Maliaer likes to be a little woman the most, being a money-mad housekeeper, which is really an alternative among the elves.
I don't know whether this is because she somehow arrived in the crisis-ridden Redemption Continent alone and has always been insecure, or whether she has been with him for a long time and was accidentally trained like this by herself. However, seeing her happy makes me happy too.
"By the way," Maliyar poured Roy a glass of water, "I heard that someone challenges you outside the academy every day. How about you? Have you beaten him?"
"No." Roy took a sip of water and rested his head on the back of the sofa to relax.
"Why don't you beat him?" Mal'er looked surprised. This is not like Roy's style. This guy was very domineering when he was in a desperate situation. Although other beasts have a strong sense of territory,
But he will not attack the strong ones passing by.
But Roy was different. With himself and the cave he lived in as the center, this guy was grabbing territory everywhere. From the mountain to the mountainside, and then from the mountainside to the foot of the mountain. Not satisfied that the entire mountain was his, he started to grab territory again.
He found a nearby jungle, a small lake and two valleys, driving away the monsters living there.
It's good if he doesn't offend others, let alone if others offend him.
As long as any blind monster dares to enter their territory, this guy and Oliver will definitely fight it. If you can beat it head-on, you will naturally be full of momentum. If you can't beat it, you will poison and set a trap. If you don't make the other party die, you will never die.
give up.
During the year and a half of living in a desperate situation, Roy conquered a territory larger than that of many beast kings. Even if the nearby monsters are chased by natural enemies and have no way out, they will never go too far. For them, provoking Roy is a big deal.
Yi's fate is much more terrible than meeting a natural enemy.
Unexpectedly, this time the other party came to bully him, but Roy didn't even beat him.
Although it is said that that guy is a just knight and a genius student of the Holy Martial Arts Hall, and his reputation is legendary in the streets and alleys. It seems that even ten Roys are no match for that guy. But Malya'er knows that strength is judged by fighting spirit. That's all.
Nonsense.
Since Roy's escape from Borabel, he has killed not one or two knights of justice. Even Ivan sparred with him and admitted that he might not win.
It's a fact that Roy's fighting spirit is not as good as his opponent's, but if you have to fight hard, how can a stupid bird trained in the Holy Martial Arts Hall be the opponent of Roy who has experienced many battles?
If Roy wanted to harm him, he would have a hundred ways to do it in the blink of an eye!
As soon as his mind changed, Ma Ya'er understood. He reached out angrily and pinched Roy's waist, saying sourly: "Dead man, you must be doing it for Alessia. Otherwise, I don't believe you would suffer this injustice."
Woolen cloth."
Roy grinned at the pinch and grabbed Mal'er's hand: "Half yes, half no."
"How do you say that?" Mai Ya'er asked with a red face.
Since the awakening of her racial bloodline, she is changing every day.
Her body curves are becoming more and more mature and perfect, and her movements and smiles are also charming. And the most obvious thing is that she finds that her body is becoming more and more sensitive.
This kind of sensitivity is only for Roy. When he is with other men, everything is normal, but as soon as he smells Roy's scent and is held by his hand, he feels itchy and weak.
When Roy wasn't paying attention, Ma Ya'er stuck out his sweet tongue and licked his lips gently.
Just like dried fish is to a greedy cat, just like bones are to a puppy. Roy's breath is full of delicious taste.
"This matter is not that simple," Roy looked at the candlelight dimly. His brows furrowed deeply, and a hint of black suddenly appeared on the edge of his blue eyes, and then it overlapped behind the pupils and disappeared.
"The Lanlis family has stood at the top of the pyramid of famous families in the mainland for two hundred years, surpassing the three major royal families. This status is definitely not achieved by just relying on arrogance," Roy said, "Their arrogance and tyranny are only on the outside, but on the inside
, but he is insidious, cunning and cautious. What he is best at is creating chaos and taking advantage of others."
"Just like this time, the guy named Kevin they sent to challenge me appears to be just a fair knight of the same age as me, but in fact, he has the pseudo-domain 'silence' against magicians."
"Silence?" Mai Ya'er said in confusion.
"Yes," Roy explained, "in his domain, magicians cannot sing. He has defeated several magicians with this."
As he said that, he frowned, "However, this is not the most cunning thing about the Langris family. What is most cunning about them is that they want to take the opportunity to stir up trouble and insert their hands into Saint Solan!"
Maliaer clasped Roy's hand.
Although she is not from this continent, she has heard rumors about the Golden Dragon Family countless times since she came here. She knows as well as everyone else what kind of huge monster it is.
"There are two protagonists in this conflict, one is me and the other is Scarlett," Roy sneered. "No matter what name the Golden Dragon Family is in, they can't avoid Scarlett. And as the royal family
Neither Scarlett nor her father Prince Anthony can truly show hostility to the royal family."
Mai Ya'er nodded. She had heard the discussions on the streets. Almost all Saint Solan people believed that the conflict between Roy and Scarlett was just a minor conflict between students. If Scarlett had not been a special status, I'm afraid even
The teachers are too lazy to care.
But this time, Anthony allowed the Langris people to intervene, which has aroused a lot of criticism. There are also many people who cursed.
As members of the royal family, the Anthony family has reached the limit of what they can do. If they want to do anything else, even if they are members of the royal family, they will attract the intervention of the top noble families in the empire.
"The people of Lanlith, what they want to do now is to force me to take action," Roy said. "If I lose, the reputation of the royal family will plummet, and the purpose of the people of Lanlith will be achieved. They can make the Holy Lady Temple and the Solan nobles understand
, choosing them is the right decision.
And if I win, I believe that they will naturally turn this matter into a conflict between the Lanlith family and the royal family. At that time, they will directly bypass Scarlett and become the protagonist of this conflict."
Speaking of this, Roy's young face showed a mature and playful smile.
"Think about it. If they lost face and killed me in total disregard of the rules. If they accused me of using dishonorable means to win, and then accused the royal family. If they failed the second-level housekeeper and Kevin, they could simply hide in Solan's body inexplicably.
Death, what will be the outcome..."
Roy said one layer, and the malt became a little colder.
Although she is a dark elf, in a land dominated by demons, it is normal for her to play tricks and conspiracies. However, after all, Mal'er is just a young lady who is not familiar with the world. How can she think about something so deeply?
Roy will think about it, Edward will think about it, and Mo Ya will think about it too.
Now we must fight to the death. This is the small conflict between Roy and Scarlett, and it is between these two people. Any other opportunities that may be given to the Lanlith people must be tightly closed!
While everyone focuses on the conflict itself, few see the future.
Making the matter bigger. Jumping from help to the front desk, making this conflict more variable, this is the hidden purpose of the Langris people. These cunning old foxes will slowly make the whole thing change, and will make one after another
An accidental connection formed their noose to Saint Solan!
Regardless of whether Roy loses or wins, all he needs to do is take action. When everyone sees the people in Lanres challenging according to the rules, they all think they will abide by the rules. In fact, the last thing they care about is the rules!
The people of Phillie are wolves, and the people of Lanlis are tigers.
When it comes to prey, wolves don't follow rules, so what rules does tigers follow? If it weren't for the convenient opportunity of directly joining the royal family and ruling this land, he would have shown his fangs long ago!
"So, you can't accept that guy's challenge?" Malyaer said sadly.
"It's not that it can't be done, it's that it can't be done now." Roy said, "The Phillies have just captured the western Dragon Gate defense line. Their troops have penetrated deep into the hinterland, and the whole country is shocked. The royal family is now at the center of the whirlpool. Your Majesty must defend Atlanta and avoid
When the Feili people invaded the plains of the imperial capital, they had to worry about the war situation in Lulian and balance the situation in the country..."
He shook his head and said: "This emperor is not easy to be. Now, what he needs most is time. At least before three new legions are formed, no one can force him to abdicate. After this period of time, the situation may be better
There has been a change.”
"Change? Is it possible..." Mai Ya'er said, "Everyone said that if the western dragon gate is lost, the south will definitely not be able to withstand it. No matter how you look at it, this battle will be lost."
"That's not necessarily the case," Roy said with a slight smile. "During the last battle in Meiding City, weren't we in danger, and didn't we win in the end? In wars, whoever has more people will not necessarily win.
Yes. We still have a chance."
"So you're delaying it now? After all, it's for Alessia's sake." Malyaer became jealous again and glanced at Roy. He thought to himself: "This guy can endure this for Alessia's sake."
I'm so angry. I don't know if it would be like this for me..."
"I said, this is only half of the reason." Roy shook his head.
Mai Ya'er asked: "What about the other half?"
"You can't avoid challenges. Sooner or later, you will have to fight," Roy said with an arc at the corner of his mouth: "I'm waiting for the opportunity. Either I don't fight, or if I fight, I will beat him severely and cripple him. Otherwise, how can I be worthy of the anger I have suffered these days!
"
Mai Ya'er covered her mouth and laughed.
The black-haired boy with his eyes rolling in front of her was the Roy she was familiar with who would never suffer a loss even in death.
.............................
.............................
After chatting with Maler for a while, Roy arrived at the conference room.
The conference room is on the third floor of the manor building. It was converted from a banquet hall. In addition to chairs, sofas and cabinets for files, the empty room is a huge cowhide map on the front wall. It is full of marks.
With various marks and arrows, the battlefield situation is clear at a glance.
"Archduke Adolf is still alive."
This was the first thing Kalenich said to Roy when he walked into the conference room.
After learning that Archduke Adolf was defeated and trapped, Kalenich immediately sent a scout team composed of five old falcons to explore the war zone.
Fano didn't know this news, and neither did the nobles. But if they couldn't find out, it didn't mean that Green Tower Manor couldn't find out.
The outcome of a war depends on many factors.
Army strength, logistics, morale, weather and terrain, etc. The most critical factor among them is the level of the commander.
The same army has completely different fates in the hands of mediocre generals and famous generals. The former will miss opportunities and make wrong judgments, and even bring the team into desperate situations under good circumstances. The latter can survive desperate situations and turn defeat into victory.
There are not many famous generals in Saint Solan. In terms of number, reputation and achievements, they are far inferior to those of the Philip Empire and the Pompeii Empire.
Especially Lulian now. When Adolf was defeated and trapped, and the Red Leaf Knights and the Twelfth Legion were both restrained by the enemy, the only thing left in the rear was an exhausted and incompetent Fano to support the overall situation.
Fano is a qualified general, but he is still far from a famous general.
When the nobles and the people could only place their only hope on Fano, expecting him to create miracles, no one could have imagined that two famous generals at the time were hiding in this small manor outside the city.
One is Kalenich, who has been a powerful figure in Longmen for twenty years and is known as the iron gate of Longmen.
The other one is a mass murderer who kills people across the border with a ruthless and cunning fighting style, Blood Fox Percy!
The combination of these two people is not only a dream in the Solan Empire, but also a luxury even in the Fei Lie Empire and the Pompeii Empire, which have many famous generals. Any one of them is absolutely qualified to replace them.
Anyone serves as Lulian's commander.
But now, they are just followers of Roy.
Under the command of Kalenich and Percy, the scout team did not go down from the nearest north, but went around to the east, and entered Wanshan County from the completely roadless mountainous area. And among the mountains in the southwest
, found Archduke Adolf.
Judging from the news brought back by the scouts, the situation of the Grand Duke is not optimistic.
After being attacked, the Chinese army collapsed. The soldiers who lost their leadership fled across the mountains and plains. They were overtaken by the organized Fei Lie army and cut down to the ground in groups.
The main force of the Chinese army of nearly 20,000 people, plus thousands of civilians transporting logistical equipment, only 14,000 people finally followed Archduke Adolf to break through the encirclement in a bloody battle. Although the main force of the Bavarian Knights and the Coast Mercenary Group were still there,
After losing almost all their baggage and food, the army was trapped in the mountains, and its morale was very low.
On the periphery, Philip's army of more than 40,000 people has occupied the towns and villages in the nearby area and blocked all roads. In particular, the figures of the Golden Knights and the old rival Snow Wolf Knights are everywhere.
Its powerful combat power not only repeatedly dashed the Grand Duke's hopes of breaking out, but also threatened the safety of the main force at all times.
Now, Fei Lie's army is mobilizing troops and cleaning up the surrounding areas to prepare for the final attack. There is not much time left for Lulian.
Roy stood in front of the map, listening to Kalenich and Percy analyze the situation in detail, feeling extremely heavy.
The defeat suffered by Archduke Adolf was too sudden and too unbelievable. You must know that before this, although the Fei Lie Empire's offensive was fierce, according to all aspects of the situation, the two sides were still roughly balanced.
.
Unexpectedly, there would be such a big gap between the Grand Duke's center army and the Twelve Legions on the right. But by chance, Fei Lie's army seized this gap, advanced quickly, and attacked from the flank.
Arrive at the Chinese army camp.
After that, Fei Lie's main force followed up at an incredibly fast speed. Wanshan County fell overnight, and the Red Leaf Knights on the left and the Twelfth Army on the right were also separated. The battle situation was completely ruined.
"Does this matter have anything to do with the Twelve Legions?" Roy was silent for a long time and asked the question he had been most worried about.
The Twelfth Army had just joined the Lulian war. Following the example of the Fifth Army, the entire Lulian had a distrustful attitude towards the border troops. But this time things happened particularly strangely, and people couldn't help but feel it.
Confuse.
"I can't tell." Kalenich and Percy looked at each other and shook their heads.
Roy put aside his worries for the time being and asked: "Judging from the current situation, do we still have a chance to rescue Archduke Adolf?"
"There is a chance," Percy said with a frown, "However, the troops required are very large. Look, young master..."
"This is Wanshan County, and this is Qingshui County," Percy pointed at several arrows on the map. "Not only did Fei Lie's army surround the main force of Archduke Adolf's central army, but they also opened pockets on the outside.
Put on a posture of surrounding the spot and calling for reinforcements..."
Roy looked at the map carefully. He found that just as Percy said, several red arrows blocked the main traffic road near Wanshan County. No matter which direction he attacked, he would be like breaking into a pack of wolves, and he would be attacked from both sides.
Percy tapped the arrow on the map: "These are the fangs of the Feili people. If they bite them, they can kill the reinforcements. If we want to rescue the Grand Duke, we must concentrate our forces into a force that they cannot bite."
An iron fist that cannot be swallowed..."
Percy said, shaking his head, "However, this is also the most unrealistic idea at the moment."
Roy nodded.
The troops of the Red Leaf Army and the Twelfth Army at the front were both pinned down by the enemy, while the forces at the rear were already stretched thin for defense, and it was impossible to form a force sufficient to compete head-on with Fei Lie's army.
But now, the main force of the empire led by Safin is far away in Atlan, on the northern border of Lulian, and there is only one Tomahawk Knights who went south at the beginning.
But unfortunately, this knighthood is a direct descendant of Donald. It is a complete daydream to hope that they will come to rescue Lulian.
Thinking of the Tomahawk Knights, Roy felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
The leader of the Knights, Grand Duke Renault, was none other than his mother Sarah's biological father and his grandfather. Among the generals of the Knights, three of them were his uncles.
But from an emotional point of view, his mother Sarah died tragically, and Donald and the Holy See were the biggest suspects. But instead of asking for justice for their mother, the Renault family remained silent and continued to work for Donald for the sake of glory and wealth...
This is the deepest secret in Roy's heart. Every time he thinks about it, he has mixed emotions.
"Is there any other way?" Roy quickly brought himself back to the problem at hand and asked.
Percy and Kalenich looked at each other and said: "We have discussed that there is no way to rescue Archduke Adolf. Although it will take a lot of risks, the success rate is extremely high. However, if you want to implement it perfectly,
If you don’t make mistakes, you can’t count on Fano.”
"Who do you expect?" Roy asked in surprise.
Kalenich raised his eyebrows, and Percy's eyes looked a little strange, as if Roy had asked a very stupid question.
In this city of Munich, who else has two famous generals and hundreds of elites?
