PS: Sorry for being late, but the Obien Expedition storyline is almost over. Next, I will write a little bit of the storyline that everyone will like. Just look forward to it.
Tzeentch's Chosen Champion, Tzeentch, tried to escape the moment Nakayi appeared.
But Veronica kept a close eye on his existence. The female council leader looked at Tzeentch's Chosen Champion, her originally sweet face and shining almond-shaped eyes were only filled with hatred and resentment.
It was Zainaik who destroyed the Garland Council, it was Zainaik who killed Margarita, it was all because of this guy!
It was all because of him!
"Don't even think about leaving!" Veronica stood on the light magic sword, her sharp voice full of curses. An Amintoc Net instantly blocked Zainaik's path.
But this was not worth mentioning to Zainaik. Tzeentch's Chosen Champion's two hands immediately took out a small booklet and a quill pen. Demon blood swirled in the ink bottle, and the quill pen dipped in ink quickly analyzed and copied the spell structure of Veronica's Amintoc King on the booklet.
"Clang!" When he wrote the last stroke, Zainaik groaned as the light net wrapped around him. Veronica's unique magic that carried Laing's psionic power made a strong acid sizzling sound on Zainaik's body. A net-like corrosion scar appeared on the surface of Zainaik's body.
Zainaik sneered and continued writing.
Veronica saw that Zainaik was bound by the light net and thought that the spell was a success. She continued to chant another spell, and a large Flame Blast was already condensed in front of Veronica. In fact, Veronica's strongest spell was the Ten Thousand Flames that Tegris taught her. But after several hours of battle, Veronica's magic was basically exhausted. Flame Blast was now the only powerful spell she could release.
Xanaik saw the opportunity. He seized the moment when Veronica gathered all her magic power and aimed her Pyroblast at him. Without hesitation, he used Tzeentch's Viper Sword to cut open his own chest!
The boiling blue blood splattered on the surface of the net, weakening the power of the Amintoc Net. Zainaik tore apart the parchment in a spurt of energy and activated his power. The net of light was deconstructed and torn apart. Zainaik fled towards the north and stood in the mountains of the Beast Mountain Range.
Tzeentch, the Chosen One champion, had a wealth of battle experience. He knew that he could not escape by force. He had to trick Veronica out of her remaining magic.
Veronica witnessed this scene with her own eyes. The female council leader immediately dispersed her Flame Burst and temporarily switched to Fireball. A large Fireball also swept across the sky above the Beast Mountain Range. When the Fireball flew halfway, a destructive Magic Arrow flew over and shattered Veronica's Fireball. The Mana of the two sides collided head-on.
After all, the chairwoman was still too young. She easily used up the rest of her magic power. After a head-on clash, flames and white light spurted out from several parts of Veronica's body. She could not control the magic wind anymore and almost fainted. She was holding on with her willpower.
"Chancellor!" The sorceresses and witches hurriedly supported the chancellor.
Zainaik stood proudly in the air and sneered. "It seems that you won't be able to get your revenge today. But no matter. Soon, the Chosen One will lead his army to the south. When that time comes, we will have a chance to meet again."
"… I will kill you with my own hands to appease the dead of the Garland Council and Chancellor Margarita!" Veronica roared angrily. She now looked like a hysterical madwoman. Garland witches had the ability to resist Zainaik's unique power, but in terms of raw power, Veronica was still far from Zainaik's level.
"I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of enchanted equipment I can make with your skull." Zainaik glanced at Veronica and then disappeared into the depths of the Beast Mountain Range. He did not dare to stay any longer. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that Sun Wang Laing and his Dark Elf maid were severely injured, Zainaik would not have dared to provoke Veronica like this.
Seeing Zainaik disappear into the horizon, Veronica could not hold on any longer and fainted.
When Veronica woke up again, it was already a long time later.
When she opened her eyes, she found herself lying on a camp bed covered by a fine woolen blanket.
It was Veronica's own tent. It was a typical magical tent, custom-made from the White Tower of Horus in Ossuan. It cost Veronica two thousand crowns. Of course, Leon was footing the bill.
From the outside, the tent looked like a small 4 × 4 tent, but in reality, the space inside was 35-40 square meters. It had everything from a study room to a guest room to a bedroom and even a bathroom. The magic tent was labeled as "Supervised Camp of the Second Archmage of the White Tower of Hoss, Belannar the Wise". The space magic of the tent could last for 150 years.
She knew that she had probably slept for a long time, but she still felt sleepy. She wanted to get up, but her limbs were sore and she had no strength at all. Veronica knew that this was the result of excessive use of magic power. She cried out, "Ouch!"
"Chancellor!" A light witch walked in from outside. She had shoulder-length hair like Veronica's and wore a thin summer white robe with a cape. "Chancellor, you're awake?"
Her name was Melissa, and she was one of Veronica's direct disciples. Ever since Katherine became the Marquess of Karad, Veronica had promoted a few outstanding witches from the official witches to become her direct disciples. However, after Leon acquiesced to the possibility that his daughter, Xi 'er Trovic, would inherit the Sorceress Assembly in the future, Veronica's position in the council was no longer as stable. The direct disciples were also competing fiercely. After all, there were only so many resources.
After all, Xi 'er Trovic was growing up. Who knew when the chancellor would be' retired '?
Seeing that it was Melissa who came in, Veronica looked under her disciple's skirt without batting an eyelid. She noticed that Melissa was wearing a pair of white pointy high heels that were 5cm tall. Furthermore, from the slight bulge in her ankles, Veronica determined that she was also wearing a pair of skinny colored stockings. This made the female chairman heave a sigh of relief.
It seemed that the war was over, so Veronica asked, "How long have I been asleep?"
"You've been asleep for a total of thirty-six hours, tutor." Melissa tidied her skirt and sat in front of the bed. She closed her legs and said, "It's now the third day since you've fainted."
"How's the situation?" Just as Veronica was about to ask again, there was a sudden burst of cheers outside. "What's wrong? What happened outside? "
"We won, we won, tutor!" Melissa excitedly clenched her fists. "We've breached Konquata Tower. Tutor, there's a captive ceremony outside!"
"A captive ceremony?" Veronica's eyes suddenly lit up. The chancellor immediately wanted to get up, but in the end, she cried out again. Her limbs were too sore and she couldn't move. "Damn it, I …"
"Toot ~ Toot ~ Toot ~ Toot ~" Outside the tent, a majestic bugle horn sounded one after another.
"Quickly help me up! Melissa, I have to participate in the captive ceremony! "Veronica hurriedly said," Go and take out my dress! "
"Yes, tutor, which one do you want?" The disciple didn't hesitate. She had followed Veronica for many years, and knew that the Sorceress Assembly was currently an organization that was completely dependent on the Knight King Kingdom. Therefore, as the chief minister of the Sun Wang Laing, Veronica naturally had to participate in the captive ceremony. Firstly, it would increase and expand her own influence, and secondly, it would continue to prove that she was indispensable.
"Give me that set of classical embroidered dress. The stockings should be the gray velvet crystal suspender stockings from the box below. The shoes should be the pair of suede blue pointed high heels." Veronica panted and said.
Melissa opened Veronica's wardrobe and somewhat enviously took out everything. The tutor and disciple took a few minutes to change Veronica's clothes, and then Veronica was helped out of her tent.
Outside the tent, the sound of gongs and drums could be heard.
After the fall of Konquata City, the knights and soldiers frantically looted all the wealth in the city, including all kinds of rare magic ores, iron ores, silver ores, gold ores that were mined by the Obien barbarians, and many of the wealth that the barbarians plundered from other places. There were also various kinds of gold statues and magic weapons that were left behind in Konquata by the ancient sages and the Truth Sayers. Many people even found the ancient sages' gold coins that were made by the Truth Sayers thousands of years ago. There were all kinds of patterns on it, such as the feathered god, the demon toad, the giant lizard, and some people even saw the head of the demigod Nakayi on it.
Hundreds of magic scrolls were excavated from the underground secret chamber of Konquata City. Of course, these things were offered to the Lake Goddess. The Goddess smiled at every knight or soldier who offered a magic scroll, and then arranged for the Lake Goddess' prophets to give back various kinds of holy objects and blessings of the same value. Among them, someone even found a magic scroll of the ancient sage's great spell "Potec's Great Disintegration". The Goddess was very happy. She gave the knight a full set of Yserama silver plate armor and an ancient elven rune longsword that was soaked in the water of the Lake Goddess. She also gave the knight a powerful blessing.
When Veronica came out of the tent, she saw Berliat was trying three people, surrounded by a large circle of knights and soldiers.
Of the three people, one looked like a commoner of the Empire, one was a Brittany serf soldier, and the last was a royal knight. They were also tied up and were being tried.
The impartial Berliat read the decree from the Sun Wang Laing and the Lake Goddess. Behind him stood a Lake Goddess prophet and a Grail knight. Berliat held a scroll of parchment in his hand and shouted coldly, "Now, let us put these three people on trial for disrupting military discipline and breaking the law!"
"Oh, oh, oh, oh!" Many of the knights and squires in the crowd shouted together, and the soldiers also clapped their hands.
"First, citizen of Newland of the Empire, Hans Mesuth Frick!" Berliat roared. "This person is guilty of the most heinous crimes. He deserted during the battle. His Majesty is magnanimous and did not pursue the matter. However, this person's character does not change. He took advantage of the chaos on the battlefield and tried to steal cattle from the camp. After he was discovered, he even used a weapon to harm his comrades. This is an unforgivable crime. I sentence him to death.
"Death penalty! Death penalty! Death penalty! "The surrounding people all shouted in response.
Veronica frowned when she saw this scene, but she did not say anything. In the Old World, stealing cattle was a serious crime punishable by beheading. It was the same in the Knight King Kingdom, the Empire, and the southern countries. This was because cattle were an important labor force. Many farmers who did not have able-bodied men in their families might have to rely on a single cattle to survive.
Deserting, stealing cattle, and harming his comrades. It was reasonable to sentence him to death by beheading.
Before the militiaman died, he still shouted, "No, you have no right to judge me. I am a citizen of the Empire. You have no right to judge me. I want to hire a litigator. I want to go to the Empire's circuit court!"
"This is the Sun King's court martial, sir." Berliat sneered. "Or do you think that the treaty between the Brittany and Emperor Karl does not count?"
Several Kislöw winged cavalry did not say a word. Under the lead of Berliat's deputy, Xie Lieping, they took the man away. The executioner raised his knife and the bleeding head fell into the bamboo basket.
"Second, Thomas Martin, soldier from Muxilon!" Berliat then pronounced the sentence. "This person stole and robbed the spoils of his comrades. He hid them and took them for himself. He is sentenced to fifty lashes."
A bare-chested Ugor went up and waved his whip. The soldier's flesh was lacerated, and he went into shock on the spot before being dragged away.
"Third, Didier Koppa, Knight of the Kingdom. After the war, he drank, got into fights, and spoke arrogantly." Berliat continued the sentence. "The Lady's orders! Knights who break the law are punished the same as serfs. In consideration of his bravery in battle and military merits, Mr. Koppa is sentenced to thirty lashes. "
Upon hearing that the Lady of the Lake had an oracle, the knights, squires, free soldiers, and serfs all prayed in a low voice, reciting the holy name of the Lady of the Lake.
A Knight of the Holy Grail went up to personally execute the punishment. He was even more ruthless than Ugor's men. Mr. Didier Koppa was beaten until he screamed in pain. There were more than twenty lashes on his back, and his flesh was even rolled up.
No one had anything to say about this punishment. Drinking and fighting was a much lighter crime than stealing. In the end, the Knight of the Kingdom, who had made military merits, was sentenced to thirty lashes.
The freedmen and serf soldiers even felt a sense of satisfaction in their hearts, and even the sun became brighter.
"His Majesty the Sun King and the Lady asked me to tell everyone that before the law, everyone is equal. No one can escape the punishment of the law!" Berliat coldly announced Laing's speech. Everyone nodded. Seeing that there were no more prisoners to be judged, everyone lost interest and dispersed.
Berliat noticed the appearance of Veronica. In fact, Ugor's men were not very willing to have too much contact with Laing's chief female minister. First, to avoid arousing suspicion. Second, he really had nothing to say to these witches. Therefore, he just said, "Your Excellency, the captive offering ceremony is about to begin. Please take your seat as soon as possible."
"Okay." Veronica nodded with the help of her disciples.
Ten minutes later, the horn sounded again. The solemn and majestic sound of the horn spread throughout the camp, until it reached the mountains and swamps of Obien.
The thundering sound of hooves sounded. Thousands of barbarian captives were tied up and sent into the camp.
In the camp, the soldiers were lined up in rows on both sides of the camp. The solemn old guards held their heads high and raised the weapons in their hands. The Knights of the Holy Grail were lined up in a row under the high platform. The marshals, knights, nobles, and generals sat on the high platform. The flags of the Breton Lion, the flags of the Nymphs of the Lake, and the flags of Leon's irises book were shining brightly under the sun in Obien.
The Sun King, Ryan Macado, and the Lake Fairy, Lilith, were sitting on the main seats. The beautiful goddess was wearing a river fog flower Iris butterfly-cream dress paired with a pair of thin white unicorn velvet pantyhose that sparkled in the night sky. Lilith had a smile on her face and didn't say a word. She just sat there with her chest out, maintaining her dignity and sacredness.
Laing was sitting on the armchair. The Knight King wore a golden laurel crown on his head. His platinum cloak fluttered in the wind. Behind him, the deputy marshal of the Old Guard, Raymond, held up his family's flag, while the other flag bearer, Armand, held up the Lake Fairy flag of the first Knight King.
"The King of Obien, the barbarian warlord, the patriarch of the Gwensen family, the hero of the Valinaheim, Harold Gwensen, has been captured by us Brittany!" Callahan stepped out of the formation proudly and shouted to everyone, "Everyone, tell me, how should we deal with these barbarians who believe in Chaos?"
"Purify! Purify! Purify! "
"Execute, execute, execute!"
The sound of a tsunami came from all directions and reached the sky above the Beast Mountain.
All the barbarian captives, including the King of Obien, would be executed wave after wave until they were all beheaded as a gift to Serpent God Sotigo as a blood sacrifice.
Since then, the Second Obien Expedition had come to an end. At the cost of 13000 casualties (including the casualties of the Empire's Newland soldiers), the knights defeated 80000 Obien barbarians and 70000 Chaos soldiers who came as reinforcements.
The Brittany had reason to be proud of their great achievement. This was the first time in the history of mankind that they had won a military miracle despite being attacked from two sides and being at an absolute disadvantage!
It was an incomparably glorious epic victory!
After the prisoner offering ceremony in July 2520 of the Empire's calendar, the name of the Sun King was more glorious and dazzling than ever. A flawless sky-blue diamond found in the depths of the Konqua Tower would be added to his crown, symbolizing his invincible achievements and achievements.
From this day onwards, the Knight King Laing Macado, who was known as the greatest Knight King in the history of the Knight King, had a new and resounding title: "Conqueror of Obien".
But the prisoner offering ceremony was not over yet.
An uninvited guest came to the ceremony.
"Sun King, you owe me a favor."
