Cornelia was going to be executed?
Moreover, she was going to be tried and executed in the name of treason.
Lei Mingkai couldn't help but stare blankly at this news. He almost allowed Alissanda to charge above the pirate Gundam and deliver a vicious blow to its head.
When Pirate Gao Da raised his arm, the Beam Shield unfolded. In the next moment, he blocked the hammer in Alexander's hand and took the opportunity to slap it away.
"Uffi. It seems that the situation is a bit unexpected. "
Ray Mingkai said helplessly after glancing at Alexander, who didn't get up for a long time.
If there were other princes and princesses who would rebel against the Empire, Ray Mingkai might believe it. After all, Lu Luxiu and Schonazel were among them. But if it was Cornelia, Ray Mingkai couldn't believe that the second princess, who fought for the Britannia Empire and expanded its territory, would lead a rebellion against the Empire.
Otherwise, in the original timeline, Schonazel wouldn't have detained Cornelia, who was used by him but was loyal to the Empire, at the last moment when he revealed his trump card.
However..,
Ray Mingkai recognized the voice from the communication channel, and Euphemia recognized it even more.
After all, this voice had been revised not long ago. Even though it wasn't him.
However, listening to this voice, Ray Mingkai's doubts deepened.
Logically speaking..,
No..,
Should be according to the slogans shouted by the Sunderland during the battle just now, the owner of this voice should already be sitting on the throne at the peak of the Britannia Empire.
Why did this voice appear in Langlan's camp? What kind of shocking change happened in this world?
"Khai." Euphemia called out softly, and her eyes looked over as well.
Ray Mingkai looked at her and nodded.
"Let's go see him! If Her Highness Cornelia is really convicted of treason, then, Uffi, your initial worries will no longer exist. "
Lei Mingkai revealed a faint smile.
"At least, this is not bad news. Isn't it? "
Euphemia smiled reluctantly.
Although this may be the truth, the news that Cornelia was about to be executed made the third princess, who had been close to her since childhood, worried.
"Okay. The other party has also sent the coordinates. Then, we have to bring some gifts. "
As he spoke, Ray Mingkai's eyes fell on Alexander, who was still struggling to get up.
The communication channel closed.
The tense atmosphere that lingered above the command hall finally dissipated a little.
"Thank you for your assistance! Sir ZERO. "
While Leila heaved a sigh of relief, she also thanked the black-masked man who had spoken up for her.
"No. After all, I was rude first. Commander, you're welcome. Besides, I also have some things to talk to him about. "
The man in the black mask, who was called ZERO by Leila, looked back at the main screen that had returned to its original state.
"Is it about the matter in District 11?" Leila remembered that not long ago, she had seen the document marked as top secret on General Gene Smerass's desk.
"Oh?"
ZERO was a little surprised, but then he was relieved.
After all, the girl standing in front of him was valued by General Gene Smerass. Naturally, she could see some top secret documents that were not too important.
"I didn't expect Commander to know about the lion too! But I can't tell you about it now. Besides, I have some doubts myself. Why don't we wait until they come to White Wolf Fort and ask them again? "
ZERO's avoidance of the topic was not out of Leila's expectation. As far as she knew, the man in the black mask in front of her, named ZERO, brought all the civilians who were willing to follow the Black Knight Regiment from the Far East all the way to this land in the West with his courage and means that surpassed mortals.
Leila wasn't too clear about the hardships involved. But the only thing she knew was that the feat accomplished by the man in the black mask in front of her was no different from the epic recorded in mythical stories.
"Since the battle of the lion in Nine Regions, the relevant information has been spread to every corner of the world by people with intentions. Under such circumstances, it's not too surprising that I know some of the deeds, isn't it? " Isn't that right? "Leila's eyes shone with the light of wisdom.
Yes.
Originally, except for District 11 and the Britannia Empire, very few people knew about the details of the battle of Nine Regions. Under such circumstances, some pieces of news appeared on the networks of various countries without warning, and it was accompanied by a photo of a mighty and majestic steel lion confronting a monster that seemed to have walked out of a mythical story.
"Really? I see. It's my negligence. " ZERO nodded slightly and then said, "No matter what, we'll see the protagonist of that battle soon, so what we have to do now is to prepare to welcome the guests."
"Yes. I'll arrange it. As for the other matters, please wait for a while, Sir ZERO and your Black Knight Regiment. "
"Okay. There's still some distance from the Black Forest to the White Wolf Fort. I think there should be enough time for everyone to have a good rest. Then, I'll take my leave first. "
Both sides dispersed and rested for a while.
According to the prediction given by the system, the guests that Leila and the others were waiting for would take at least three hours, or even longer to arrive.
Leila was very clear about the current situation of Langlan Xi Country that was extremely lazy. Otherwise, Langlan Xi Country, which had gathered all its strength, would not be forced into such a predicament by the Britannia Empire.
Leila believed that even with the temporary pass ID given by the White Wolf Fort, their guests would probably be intercepted by several checkpoints and their identities would be checked.
However …
Before the third hour of the scheduled time, Leila, who was writing a report and describing the accident that happened in the command hall just now, was interrupted by an urgent phone call.
"It's me. What's the matter? "
Leila had just picked up the phone and said casually, then she got up as if she was possessed, rushed to the window, and looked at the north of the White Wolf Fort, in the direction of the Black Forest.
Over there,
Under the bright and beautiful sun,
Amidst the waves of sharp whistles,
Surrounded by the helicopters and fighter jets that filled the sky,
The steel body that Leila had only seen on the main screen of the command hall swept past the top of the forest like a gust of wind, flying quickly towards the White Wolf Fort.
"He actually arrived here within three hours? So fast! "Leila was shocked and immediately reacted, picking up the phone again.
"Anna, send an announcement to all the allies behind the guests. This is a guest that our WZERO Army specially invited. If there are any doubts, ask them to look for General Gene Smerass. "
After saying that, Leila put down the phone, was silent for a while, picked up the phone again, and quickly pressed a string of numbers.
"Du … du … du …"
After a few rings, a man's steady voice sounded.
"I'm Gene Smerass."
"General. I'm Leila Marukal. "Leila's eyes flashed, and she spoke quickly.
"Oh, Leila! How rare! Leila actually took the initiative to contact … "
Without waiting for the man on the other side of the phone to finish, Leila said first, "General. There's something I need your help with now. A lion has appeared. Right here at the White Wolf Fort. I need to give it free passage in Langlan Xi, is that okay? "
"Lion? What lion? "Gene Smerass was stunned.
But Leila had already hung up the communication.
A few seconds later, Gene's eyes suddenly widened, and he almost jumped up from his seat.
"Lion?! Lion?! The lion of the nine provinces!!! "
General Gene, who understood the meaning of the word lion, immediately walked out of the office and gave the order loudly.
"Inform everyone that I'm going to the White Wolf Fort where WZERO Army is located immediately, and ask the surrounding garrison troops to retreat 30 kilometers. This is an order! Execute it immediately! "
Leila did not know what kind of consequences Gene's order would cause.
The only thing she knew was that when the mysterious Mech appeared in front of her, the impact it gave her was so huge, so shocking.
Between the tall and forked V-shaped antenna, there was a ferocious skull. Under the skull, there was a pair of electronic eyes that flashed with cold light.
It was as if as long as one was stared at by this pair of electronic eyes, one would feel an uncontrollable chill rise from the bottom of one's feet to one's spine and then rush to one's brain.
Alexander.
This Knightmare, which was the main body of WZERO, was held in its hand like a weak baby, and looked like it was at the mercy of others.
Other than that, the rest of the mysterious body was covered by the cloak that exuded a mysterious aura, so no one could see what was inside clearly.
"Alexander. How miserable! "
Seeing the product of her hard work being played with by the mysterious body, Anna showed a pained expression.
After both Leila and WZERO's personnel arrived, the mysterious body slowly put Alexander aside and walked a few steps away. It half-knelt down and raised its hand to its chest.
"Ka, chi ~"
With a sound, the cockpit of the mysterious body opened.
The face of the pilot who piloted the mysterious body to kill Sunderland's enemies appeared in front of everyone.
When she saw Ray Mingkai was the first to leave the cockpit, WZERO slowly let out a sigh of relief.
"It's really him. Knight, Ray Mingkai! "
Immediately after, Ray Mingkai, who walked out of the cockpit, looked around and checked the condition of Leila, WZERO, and the others before returning to the cockpit and helping Euphemia out of the cockpit.
Leila and WZERO looked at each other and went forward to welcome the guests.
"I'm Leila Marucar. I'm the temporary commander of WZERO. Welcome to White Wolf Fort, distinguished guests! "
"Leila Marucar? Marucar? I've heard of this surname, but it disappeared from Britannia a long time ago. "
After standing still, Euphemia looked at Leila in surprise.
"Yes. My parents used to be nobles in Britannia. However, something happened to me when I was young, so I fled to Langlan West Kingdom. "Leila's expression changed slightly, but she still spoke of her background frankly.
"Is that so? I'm very sorry! "Euphemia showed a regretful expression and apologized for the offense she had unintentionally caused.
"No, this is already in the past." Leila shook her head, indicating that she did not care.
“ZERO。 Why are you here? This is different from the information I heard on the battlefield. " Compared to the harmonious conversation between the two girls, Ray Mingkai and WZERO were a little hostile.
"Information on the battlefield?"
A burst of laughter came from under the black mask.
"Hahaha! Let me guess! You must have heard the zealots chanting "All Hail Lilouch!!" All Hail Britannia!! ', right? Hmph. Undeniable. I'm really a person with a bad taste! "
"Me?"
Ray Mingkai sharply caught the word WZERO mentioned.
"Yes. It's me! The Lion's Knight! Are you interested in listening to my story? This is also the key to why the Second Princess of the Britannia Empire, Cornelia LI Britannia, was convicted of treason. "
“ZERO！ Are you serious? " Euphemia walked to Ray Mingkai's side and stared at the black mask. Her gaze seemed to want to penetrate the mask and look directly into WZERO's eyes.
"Of course! I'm serious! Come! Knight who returned from the sea of stars, and Your Highness, before you decide what to do next, why don't you listen to my story about the great changes that happened in this world after you left? "
