Amidst the wind and snow, the once majestic and towering Kuyleu Castle was now just a pile of ruins. The faint light projected from the sky made it even more difficult to recognize that this was once the headquarters of the Kuyleu Family. The world changed like clouds and dogs, and the flowers and flowing water between the various countries. Once they returned, only ruins, the vicissitudes of life, and countless corpses were left behind.
Laing dismounted from his horse, and the Knight King tidied up his sleeves. "The castle of Kuyleu is divided into three layers. The outer wall and the middle wall have collapsed. We can't repair the castle in a short time. In fact, I don't plan to do so at all."
"So this is our burial place? A broken castle in ruins? " Angelo shouted. The original World Eater was a little unhappy. "Do you think the Seed of Destruction will lose its fighting spirit when it sees the bones and tombstones here? You think too much. "
"No, the real secret comes from the inner castle." Laing sighed. "Let's talk about it when we go in."
"His Majesty is here! So is Sir Angelo! "
"Welcome, Your Majesty. Long live the king!"
"Long live the king!"
When the Old Guard saw Laing, they cheered and saluted collectively. The castle gate that had just been repaired lifted the heavy drawbridge. The Old Guard Commander, Bertrand, the Old Guard Deputy Commander, and the Grail Guard Raymond came out. "Your Majesty, you are here?"
"How is it?" Laing asked Bertrand naturally, "My Marshal? What happened to you? "
Bertrand's Starfire Rune Chain Armor, produced by the Wood Elf Val's Anvil, was stained with various kinds of lime.
"Your Majesty, when the marshal was trying to enter the inner castle, he encountered a gargoyle in the cave." Raymond smiled and said, "Our marshal shot the gargoyle's head with an arrow, but he was covered in dust."
"You still have to be careful." Laing patted Bertrand's arm and sighed, "I've already lost a marshal."
"His Excellency Bodrick's glorious sacrifice is a loss to all of Brittany." Bertrand's expression was also solemn, and Tal's Chosen One was a little sad. "I hope his sacrifice will not be in vain."
Inside the castle, dozens of cannons were being set up by the dwarven engineers in many strategic locations. The Old Guard and the Coldstream Guards of Muxilon had also joined in the construction work. After the king appeared, they worked especially hard. Several Old Guard veterans were moving several crates and a dozen carriages filled with supplies and many magical items.
"I don't understand these things, and I don't want to care." Anglo did not care and stretched his arms. The World Eater geno prototype walked into the forest outside. "It should be a while before the Seed of Destruction appears, right? I'm going to go hunting. When you are all ready and have a meeting, come and find me. You know where to find me. "
Laing rolled his eyes at Anglo, but Anglo turned around and left without any pressure. He entered the forest.
"Okay, let's see how it goes." Laing was talking to Bertrand when Red Dragon Duke Berchemund came out of the castle with a group of Holy Grail knights, the Red Dragon Brotherhood. Duke Berchemund, the First Marshal, saw Laing and quickly came forward. He first bowed and then immediately complained, "Your Majesty, can you control your female ministers?"
"Take care of them?" Leon's interest was piqued. The Knight King was amused. "What did they do again? Is it Veronica? Or is it Aurora? "
"Lady Veronica is smart, smart, and good with words." Berchemund spread his hands. The old duke laughed and said, "She told everyone that she was your first female minister. What she meant was what you meant. She asked us to cooperate. Then, she took a lot of people from me. First, she took the best room in the castle and announced that it was reserved for you. Then, she moved in. She ordered your Old Guard to spend their precious time decorating the room and putting up murals."
"That's normal. She is my first female minister." Sure enough, Laing doted on Veronica as usual. Sun King didn't seem to care. Veronica's power and arrogance were only authorized by Laing himself. Moreover, the chairwoman was a person with a strong sense of boundaries. She liked to show off her power, but she didn't like to play with it.
"For the past few days, she and Her Highness Morgiana have been busy making a potion in the castle. I've seen dozens of witches busily moving carts of precious herbs and rare materials into the castle. I don't understand these things." Berchemund smiled. The old duke was just complaining about what he saw out of habit. He really didn't understand. "Well, I hope she can bring us some help."
While they were talking, the Old Guard carried down a large bed from a carriage. The bed looked like it had been refurbished. It had a sturdy oak bed frame, a silver-plated bed, and a thick feather mattress. Veronica's disciple, Melissa, was wearing a fiery red robe and brown high-heeled boots. She shouted at the sergeants of Mu Xilong's Coldstream Guards, "Be careful! You guys, don't break this bed! This bed is the most precious thing of the chairwoman. His Majesty the Sun King and the chairwoman had their best first experience on this bed! If you break it, you'll be hanged on a tree by the chairwoman and His Majesty! "
"Ah!" Laing screamed and blushed. He thought to himself, "Why are you talking about this kind of thing? How did Veronica teach her disciples?! "
The group of Knights of the Holy Grail, Duke Berchemund, and the two commanders of the Old Guard all had strange expressions on their faces. They tried their best to hold back their laughter. Some covered their mouths, while others couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Berchemund, you're laughing very happily," Laing looked at the First Marshal who couldn't help but cover his mouth and said in a neutral tone.
"Your Majesty, please don't say that. Everyone in the Red Dragon family is an excellent knight. Everyone is very professional. Normally, we won't laugh unless we can't help it," Berchemund immediately said seriously.
"So you can't help it?" Laing complained.
"I can't help it, Your Majesty. I'm not laughing. I just feel like I've returned to my younger days. I have an innocent expression like a child," Berchemund argued. "Your Majesty, everyone has a childhood."
"Do you know why Veronica asked people to bring this big bed here?" Laing saw that the old Duke still couldn't help but laugh. The Knight King said calmly.
"Huh?" Berchemund was stunned. "Your Majesty, this is between you and her. Are you asking me?"
"Her meaning is very simple. If we can't survive this battle, even if she dies, she wants to die with me," Laing said softly as he looked at the big bed that was difficult to move.
Berchemund, Bertrand, and Raymond's expressions instantly became serious. The old Duke nodded. "This kind of woman is suitable to be your first female court official. Your Majesty, if only Lady Aurora and Lady Teresa could be as determined as Lady Veronica."
"What are Aurora and Teresa doing?" Laing asked. The group walked into the castle.
"They said that they want to build a large ice magic circle in the castle according to your instructions," Bertrand said. "They've taken a lot of people to do this, but in my opinion, most of the time they just enjoy camping in the wild. And Lady Aurora, her tone has always been unpleasant."
"Ice magic witches are not as passionate as Veronica, who is a fire and light magic witch." Laing shook his head. "Now that I'm here, let's get ready. This will be the most difficult battle I've ever faced since I was born."
The heavy inner castle gate was pushed open. The original ruins had been cleaned up and a lot of new furniture had been added. Not far from the gate, François and Kalad were sitting together and enjoying wine and barbecue. A few servants were roasting large eggplants with charcoal. The castle hall was bustling with people.
"François, Kalad, you two really know how to enjoy life," Laing said with a smile from afar.
"Ha, enjoy life. If it weren't for the upcoming threat, I would be spending the winter in Helenhilde, Your Majesty." The old father-in-law stroked his goatee and smiled. "Would you like to sit down and have a drink with us? Carcassonne's fresh lamb, Winford's wine, and my superior halfling chef's cooking. "
"I'd love to, but I have other things to do." Laing declined politely. "Maybe after I finish my inspection."
"Her Majesty didn't come with you?" Kalad knew that this battle would be very difficult. Everyone had learned from Laing and the Lady of the Lake who their enemy was. The Seed of Destruction and its army were made up of at least three great demons and thousands of Kora.
"Suria went to arrange for Devonshire." Laing nodded. "She'll come when she's done."
"Actually … forget it." François wanted to say something, but he shook his head. The old father-in-law sighed. "Devonshire is hiding? That's good. We all know how powerful you and Anglo are. If both of you are strong enemies, then it's best not to let Devonshire get involved. "
"I know. I'll count on you two for the next battle," Laing said softly.
"Of course. Even if it's for my grandson, as a grandfather, I will fight to the death." François raised his glass.
"It's my duty." Kalad did not say much, but he was determined.
After bidding farewell to Kalad and François, Laing wanted to continue upstairs. At the corner of the inner room, the Wood Elf Hero Aralos appeared with his personal guards, the Grey Coat Team. His green antler helmet shone on the wet ground and the wooden steps nearby. "Good morning, Your Majesty. Lord Aralos of the Tarsyn Forest has brought a decree from Queen Aleil of the Forest."
The Grey Coat Team stood straight and saluted. These proud and isolated wood elves could not help but show gratitude and admiration when they saw Laing. It was not just courtesy, but true respect. Morgul, who had troubled the wood elves for thousands of years, was killed by Laing. Amir's corruption was quickly fading.
"What news does Queen Aleil bring?" Laing could not hide the smile on his face when he saw Aralos. He spread out his hands and deliberately hugged Aralos.
Aralos awkwardly accepted Laing's "enthusiasm". For some reason, he always felt that Laing's eyes were full of ridicule, sympathy, and pity. But the Wood Elf hero could only bite the bullet and say, "Queen Aleil is seriously ill. Her power has been seriously damaged, so she can't fight in person. But Aisley and the Brittany are allies. I will represent Aisley and fight side by side with the knights."
"Well, with your help, it will be great for us. Thank you, Aralos." Laing patted Aralos on the shoulder again and said seriously, "The Seed of Destruction will not arrive so soon. During this time, you can prepare your army and compete with Bertrand in archery."
"The Green Arrow, shooting the ninth ring from four hundred meters away. I've heard of your name for a long time." Aralos raised his chin arrogantly at Bertrand.
"Lord of the Tarsyn Woodland, Queen Aleil's Chosen Champion, Your Excellency Aralos, I'm very honored …"
"BOOM!" There was an explosion and the sound of glass shattering from upstairs, interrupting the call.
"Hurry up and take a look, my Majesty Knight King." Aralos was speechless, "I've been here for a few hours, and the upstairs has exploded twice."
"Well, I'll go up and take a look."
It took more than ten seconds to run up the stairs. In the hall on the third floor of the castle, Veronica, who was dressed in red, was shouting angrily, "Bastard! Why is there a problem at this critical moment?! I know you're old. Just this once, just let me use it for the last time, okay? When I'm done, I'll let you retire! "
"Calm down, Veronica." Morgiana's voice came, "There's still a lot of time. Let's try again."
"Who are you going to let retire?" Laing's voice came from afar. Knight King emerged from the spiral stairs.
"Oh! Dear, you're here ~? Great, come and help me! "" Laing, you're finally here! Do you want me to make you something to eat? "
Veronica and Morgiana shouted one after the other. Seeing Laing appear, although the female president's face was still not looking good, she was much more relaxed as if she had found the key, and Morgiana was overjoyed. The Lake Goddess Witch saw that there was no one else present and quickly strode over.
Today, Veronica was wearing a red sleeved dress from Positano Rose Castle. The female president's dark brown hair was draped over her shoulders, and the low-cut dress firmly squeezed out two semicircles and a cleavage. The dress was only 15 centimeters above her knees. A pair of long legs wrapped in black velvet translucent crystal sparkling pantyhose took a step sideways, and a pair of black silk stockings stepped on a pair of polished black leather shoes. The sweet female president stood in the middle of three monoculars, adjusting them.
The Lake Goddess Witch Morgiana was wearing a Fontainebleau dress with a transparent tie and pleated dress. Unlike Veronica, Morgiana never dared to dress as boldly as Veronica except in private. Her full breasts were tightly covered by the dress, and the hem of the dress was about 10 centimeters below her knees. Only the white lace opaque pantyhose and nude fish-mouth high heels could be seen.
"What's going on? Veronica, who are you contacting with the monoculars? " Laing first hugged Morgiana, then asked Veronica, "Where are Aurora and Teresa?"
"The mother and daughter are now setting up a magic circle at the top of the Oracle Mountains." Morgiana answered first. The Lake Goddess Witch leaned on Laing and said, "As for Veronica, she's trying to communicate with the Great Wizard of the White Tower, Tegris. She's asking if there's a powerful spell that can deal with the Seed of Destruction."
"Laing, don't talk to Morgiana. Come and help me." Veronica impatiently controlled the chaotic magic wind, and the monoculars vibrated back and forth. Ossouin was shrouded in fog and the mocking laughter of demons. Laing could even see the powerful demon En Kali from time to time. The Knight King stepped forward and said, "Let me."
Veronica and Laing worked together and finally sorted out the chaotic magic wind.
A curtain opened, and in the light of the three monoculars, the projection of the Great Wizard Tegris appeared.
"Greetings, Lady Veronica, and the champion of the Chosen One, Laing Macado. In this dark and complicated era, where we have to look for any hope and abandon any disputes and hatred of the past, is there anything I can help you with?" Tegris's face was calm, and his eyes were pure.
Veronica told Tegris about the arrival of the Seed of Destruction, and the Great Wizard frowned. "If that's the case, then the Seed of Destruction is very, very ancient. Not only is it older than the entire elven race, it's even older than the Magic Toad."
"Is there any way to deal with this thing?" Veronica was not interested in what Tegris had to say. She only cared about how to deal with the Seed of Destruction.
"I have a great spell. It might be useful. Memorize it." Tegris told Veronica a very ancient great spell to seal light — the Light Protection Sealing Sword.
After spending five minutes, Tegris had Veronica memorize the spell. He said that he did not know much about it, and that was all he could help. But when Veronica was about to turn off the communication, Tegris asked her to wait.
"Laing," Tegris said. "Get ready."
"Ready?" Laing looked confused.
"Shaman King Malecis has been chosen by the Lord of the Phoenix, Asuyan. He is being guided by fate. The throne of Ossouin is waiting for its destined owner." Tegris said. "Please remember that you, Lilith, and I are on the same side. You must support the Shaman King's ascension, even if you don't like him."
"… I understand."
"The Final Moment has been going on for more than a year. Even if the situation is not too bad for us now, the Eternal Chosen One still has not made a move. This means that Chaos is still just testing our reaction." Tegris closed his eyes. "I predict that you will play the most important role. You are very likely to decide whether the world will go to destruction, continuation, or new life. You decide what to do. Please do not disappoint me, Lilith, the high elves, and all the mortals."
With that, Tegris turned off the communication.
Decide everything? Laing pinched his chin.
There was no need to think so much now. The most important thing now was … to survive!
While Laing was busy making preparations, a fast ship from Fort Marlin also landed in Bordero.
A group of First Guard Pike Cavalry and a carriage came down from the fast ship. This luxurious carriage was very strange. Along the way, as long as it was in a place where outsiders could see, the passengers in the carriage never said a word. The curtains were always tightly drawn, the windows were locked, and the door of the carriage was always closed. Except for the occasional Berliat who would say a few words to the window and deliver some food, the passengers never interacted with the outside world.
In this way, the winged cavalry escorted the carriage to the Khuilwu Tombs, their destination.
