MTL - How To Wear a Goddess Statue-Chapter 138 meet
Northwest Frontier, Seton City.
In the city lord's mansion, a middle-aged man wearing a luxurious robe was sitting on the main seat. He was in a high position, but he was trembling and fidgeting.
At this time, the middle-aged man was listening to his subordinates reporting the military situation outside the city.
"Sir City Lord, the Sanur people have already climbed the hills opposite, their flags are lined up, I'm afraid they will attack soon!"
The soldier who conveyed the news lowered his head and reported, his tone was short, but there was still a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
As a border city, the city defense of Seton City is also very complete. Due to its natural terrain advantages, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and its location behind the city of Tigbia, I have never encountered it before. How many threats.
In order to prevent the Sanur from bypassing the Tigbia line of defense and raiding the city from the desolate mountainous areas, a lot of troops are still stationed here.
However, the Seton City defenders, who have not experienced much actual combat, are far from the frontier army in terms of combat capabilities.
Even the Tigbian garrison could not resist Sanur's savage army, what about them? Can they really resist the enemy and wait for reinforcements from the royal city or other cities?
The haze of war and death enveloped the army, and also surrounded the people who settled in the city.
At this time, they need a banner, a reassurance, and a superior who can stand up and inspire.
The soldier raised his head and looked up at the city lord anxiously.
He doesn't expect the city lord, who is a noble, to fight in person and defend against the enemy with the generals, but as long as the city lord is willing to stand on the city wall and give an impassioned speech, it can bring them great benefits inspired.
I ask you to stand up, I ask you to—
However, after the city lord heard the report, he turned his head to look at the staff behind him and asked anxiously: "They are about to call, what should I do, what should I do now? Can I surrender..."
The aide on the right shook his head: "Surrender is impossible. The Sanur are cruel by nature. It is said that they will sacrifice the heads and hearts of captives to the gods. Their culture does not allow the concept of prisoners of war to be spared."
The staff on the left suggested: "I suggested you wait and see the situation before, but now the Sanur army is about to invade the city, and the situation is critical. If you don't leave, it will be too late for the other side to surround the city."
Another aide said: "Yes, the city lord and the nobles here are noble, how can they take such a risk. In my opinion, let's evacuate!"
The officials at the scene echoed, some hesitated, and some officials questioned: "What are you talking about now? The officials and nobles are gone, what about Seton City?"
As soon as these words came out, they were immediately refuted by many.
"It's really strange that you say that, as if adults are not doing it right."
"The strength of Seton City can't be held at all, the Lord City Lord is going to ask for help from other cities in person!"
"Since you are so unhappy, then you should stay."
The city lord has already stood up, hurried to the backyard, and greeted the attendants to clean up. The soldiers who stayed in the hall looked at his back, and could vaguely hear a few conversations between the city lord and his staff.
"The road is not safe, I need military escorts!"
"Just bring a small team of elite soldiers, otherwise it will slow down."
Even these big men escaped.
Can they really hold Seton City?
The soldier knew that he should return to his comrades, and struggled to tell everyone the reaction of the city master and others - but his legs and feet were as heavy as lead.
This news will undoubtedly spread doubt and despair to all.
Not long after, the city lord reappeared with his wife, children and a few lovers, and hurried to the outside of the city lord's mansion.
Soon, they and other noble officials will escape from the hidden alleys of Seton City. As for the punishment for abandoning the city and fleeing, it will be a matter later, and the most important thing now is Just survive.
The soldier bowed his head dumbly, and he didn't know how long it took before he stumbled to his feet.
Get your colleagues ready...
At this moment, the movement outside the hall stopped abruptly, as if someone pressed the mute button, and all the chaos and noise could not be heard.
Instead, there are uniform, almost like footsteps made by the same person, but no one can stomp so loudly.
Such a mighty movement stopped outside the hall, revealing the vain and scattered steps mixed inside, still moving forward, one of which was a steady and powerful step that was particularly clear, as if it could hold people's feet. cochlea.
Following the direction of the sound, the soldier looked back and saw the owner of the footsteps.
Black hair, black boots.
The visitor is tall and straight, with a beautiful face, and the armor reflects a metallic luster under the sunlight, and it is cold and sharp.
And this kind of brilliance is also reflected in her eyes, and her eyes are as bright as gold.
The soldier's eyes just fixed on the pattern printed on the armor.
Everyone knows that it is the coat of arms of the Solan royal family. In today's Solancia, there are only two people who can use this decoration openly.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
The soldier muttered softly.
The visitor's gaze has swept over, his eyes are sharp and majestic, with a faint scrutiny, but soon she recognized the identity of the soldier and nodded lightly.
"Go back and tell them I'm here."
There are only two people who can use the royal coat of arms, one is His Highness Naimar, the concubine of the city of the Sun God, and the other is naturally in Aht, Her Majesty Eleuil, known as the ruling princess.
The soldier was stunned for two seconds, then suddenly gave a military salute: "Yes!"
At this moment, it doesn't matter whether the city lord stays or not, the nominal princess and the actual ruler come to sit in person, nothing can inspire people more than this.
But before running out of the hall, the soldier's gaze inevitably stayed behind the princess for a moment.
Lotus floated in mid-air, and her gaze fell on these people, then she retracted her gaze and looked at Eleuil again.
In order to increase the speed of the march, Eleuil and several generals led an elite cavalry to rush through day and night, and finally arrived at Seton City.
Of course, a group of people entered the city from the east gate away from the Sanur people. When the guards on the city wall saw the royal flag, they did not dare to ask people to interrogate and block them.
But someone looked flustered and seemed to want to go back to the city to report the news. Eleuil asked the guards to restrain him.
Eleuil: "…"
The princess led the army forward with an expressionless face, and before she could go far, she ran into a dozen low-key carriages head-on, and without any suspense, drove these nobles back to the city lord again government.
At the moment of the great enemy, the lord of a city flees without any resistance.
Its absurd and hateful level is no less than the DiSimon city lord who embezzled money in the earthquake disaster.
“There is no divine power of exotic spirits here, their thoughts and practices are entirely from the heart.”
The clear and quiet voice of the river goddess only rang in the ears of the princess.
Eleuil did not speak. In the closed and empty hall, even a whisper may be detected by people with excellent hearing, so Eleuil just raised the corners of her lips, indicating that she listened arrive.
In the eyes of the noble officials in the city, this tiny smile means that they will not be held accountable, which makes them relieved.
However, this self-comfort slowly disintegrates, and fear rises again.
Because from the time she stepped into the city lord's mansion, the princess never cast any eyes at them again.
Eleuil just sat down in the main hall of the hall, and quickly found the city defense map and topographic map of Seton City and the surrounding area from the paper on the table, along with some other material.
Eleuil expands the scroll and examines it quietly.
The atmosphere in the hall froze, and no one dared to make a sound to break the silence at this time.
Luodus tilted her head, her blue eyes were half-drooping, and her expression was complicated.
On the table in front of Eleuil, two ravens had stopped for some time.
One of them raised its head and stared silently at the princess' face, while the other looked down at the map with the princess, but there was no expression on the bird's face.
Luodus sighed quietly.
These two ravens, only she can see in this hall.
Finally, when the city lord and others became more and more afraid, and were almost scared to the limit by the princess's attitude of leaving it alone, Eleuil turned his eyes away from the picture scroll.
The deep golden eyes raised at the end of the eyes swept across the hall, and did not stop at the few people who were trying to escape, as if they were just unimportant ornaments.
Finally, she looked at the few people who were waiting. These were officials who did not flee with the city lord and wanted to stay in the city and resist with the army and the people.
"Where's the prison?"
Eleuil asked.
The official was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously replied: "Not far behind the City Lord's Mansion, it's..."
"Please take them there."
Does this mean that the guards will throw the nobles into prison?
Before the officials spoke, the city lord raised his voice in disbelief and shouted: "Ai-Your Majesty, you are joking, I am a royal marriage-in-law, the ruler of this noble family, You can't do this to me!"
"Yes."
"Of course it is! We didn't want to abandon the city and flee, just, just want to go out to seek reinforcements." The city owner seemed to see hope, swallowed his saliva and said, "You are willing to come from the royal city. That's great, don't worry, we'll help you mobilize the forces of Seton City—"
Eleuil interrupted.
"Right now, staying in jail and making no noise is the greatest contribution you can make."
Without the trial court or the royal court, although this sentence is scary and only the result of temporary disposal, it is like a real sentence when it comes out of Eleuil's mouth.
There are even nobles with weak legs and frightened eyes. The guards can ignore this and follow the order behind the officials to "place" these guys in the prison.
After that, Eleuil did not take a rest, and immediately rushed to the city gate, looked at the Sanur army stationed on the opposite hill, and discussed with the generals defending the city.
Eliuil did not have the time and space to be alone in the temporary shelter until the evening.
Surton City's architectural style is not exquisite, but the interior space of the house is quite large and very spacious.
Eleuil closed the door, walked to the window and let down the curtains, waiting for Rhodes to appear in the dim yellow light that filled the room.
The spirit version Luotas looked at the main gods around him and coughed lightly: "Ai Liu, that's it... My colleagues are here too."
So be prepared.
Eleuil raised her eyebrows slightly, then quickly understood what this sentence meant, her expression froze for a moment.
At the same time, the flames of the lamps and candles burning in the room swayed abnormally, and the shadows of the candles projected on the wall also swayed. Tall shadow.
Representing the main combat power of the Solan pantheon, the eight main gods gathered in the room of the world.
Eight gods, except Luodus, all had an inexplicable surprise and curiosity on their expressions.
Eleuil lowered her head and met the eyes of the two ravens that came over.
Eleuil: "…"
