Three hundred and seventeen chapters after the war (1)
Lucya's sudden betrayal made the city guards attack from both sides. After several hours of fierce battle, the already exhausted city guards finally couldn't stand it under such a blow, and the built front completely collapsed. The soldiers fled in scattered. Minaishir barely escaped from the battlefield under the escort of some personal guards.
Although the main general escaped and his formation was disbanded, the Loren family had been deeply rooted in Kenst for thousands of years, and a considerable number of soldiers in the city lord guards were still loyal to this great family. They gathered together and continued the battle that was doomed to fail, even if they sacrificed their lives.
The clearance work was not very smooth. Faced with the completely dispersed City Lord Guard, the mercenary group of Moonlight, Oak, Wind Words, and Lizards were fighting street battles. The only advantage was that the other party did not have any systematic command and they all fought on their own. Even so, it was almost late at night when the clearance ended, and many City Lord Guard soldiers took off their armor and turned into civilians, hiding in the corner of the city, waiting for the opportunity to take revenge. This is another unstable factor. In addition, there is also a huge hidden danger.
"Mineshill was not found?" Phyllis sat on the sofa, his face a little unfair.
It can be imagined that when Philis and Danica replace the Loren family's rule over Kenster, it will definitely attract dissatisfaction from all parties, because Philis just hopes to win this trial, and all policies formulated in the future will be based on this point. She does not care whether Kenster will prosper, let alone take care of all interests. At that time, the nobles, merchants and civilians who oppose Minaihill will miss the previous Loren family, and it is very likely to cause a rebellion. It is estimated that
It would take several times to completely consolidate their rule over the city. If Minaihill is caught, or at least killed, then these rebels have no leader, causing at most some damage and causing some trouble, which is not worth worrying. But if Minaihill secretly commands, those rebels will have a condensed core, which may really be turned over by him. When he thinks that he is having a fierce confrontation with Carl, a ghostly Minaihill appears behind him, Phyllis feels a headache.
Fililler, who stood in front of Philis, lowered his head, and didn't know what to say. When the front of the city guard began to collapse, Filille specifically ordered that the most important thing in the pursuit operation was Minaihill, and this key figure must be found. As a result, she led the team for several hours, but she couldn't find it. Until twelve o'clock in the evening, the mercenaries of the mercenary group were so tired that they couldn't walk anymore, so Fililler had to withdraw and came back to report to Philis.
Seeing Filiser's appearance, Phyllis took a few deep breaths and suppressed her temper. It's useless to be angry now, and she also knew that the city had belonged to the Loren family before, and Minaiheir had quite a few supporters in the inner city. If he really wanted to escape, there were ways, and even many nobles were willing to provide him with shelter. In this case, it was indeed not easy for them, such as "outsiders" to catch Minaiheir.
At this time, Aishi walked in and said something in Danica's ear. Danica nodded and said to Phyllis: "I'll go out."
"Oh, OK." Phyllis responded. This is a service point for the Aixue Chamber of Commerce. The villa of the Aixue Chamber of Commerce branch was burned and they couldn't live there for a while. So they chose this place as their destination. Danica is the owner of the place, and she said this out of politeness.
...
In the suburbs southeast of Kenster, Minaihere was fleeing in a hurry. He was now wearing dirty and worn-out clothes of the poor, and deliberately smeared some mud on his face, trying to dress up as a civilian who avoided military disasters. However, his expression was panicked and looked like a frightened bird, which was really eye-catching. Fortunately, there were no people in the suburbs at this time. Minaihere looked as frightened as a dog, extremely embarrassed. But indeed, he had already lost his home, and the Loren family had built and maintained a home for thousands of years. After that battle, Kenhere had changed hands.
While stumbled forward, Minaisheil looked back from time to time. The loyal guards who protected him had been killed by the druid. Now he was the only one left. With his understanding of the complex terrain of the diaspora, he finally got rid of the terrible leopard for the time being, but who knew when she would catch up? As a defeated general, Minaisheil had completely lost the courage to resist. He just wanted to run away and run to a safer place, cry for the Loren family and Kenst.
I don't know that I have been running for several hours, and the war was too intense during the day, and Minaisheil had no energy to replenish all day. Now he felt his limbs were stiff and sore, and his lungs were like a broken bellow box. Every breathing would bring severe pain, and his whole body was almost unable to hold on. What's even more terrifying is that the weakness of his body and the mental blows caused his consciousness to blur. For example, now, Minaisheil didn't know when he fell to the ground, and there was a gorgeously dressed noble lady standing in front of him, holding his face and kissing her gently on her mouth.
"What a poor child." The woman said lovingly.
"You...who are you?" Minaihil asked randomly, his eyes confused and unconscious.
"Me?" the woman chuckled and said, "I am Corice, Corice Gard, a lonely noble lady. Would you like to be my guardian knight?"
In Minaishire's eyes, the woman's smile was so thrilling and beautiful. Seeing this smile, the weakness and pain in her body seemed to be about to disappear. He subconsciously wanted to nod, but at the last moment, he said: "No!"
Curris asked in confusion: "Why?"
Minaihill looked back at Kenster, who was shrouded in the night and said, "I still want revenge!"
"Who are you going to avenge yourself?"
Who should we avenge ourselves? This is indeed a question. Who caused the tragedy of the Loren family? It is not just Phyllis, Carl, Lucia and others. Yes, it is not just them. The real culprit is the powerful forces behind them. Relying on their own strength, they do not take the dignity and life of others seriously at all. Shouldn’t such evil forces be destroyed?
Minaishir said viciously: "I want to avenge the whole human race!"
(Note: Human race, elves, beast races and dwarves are collectively called humans, and the general wisdom race also means the same.)
Curris laughed again, smiling so brightly and happily, she said, "That would be better. I also have to deal with the four major races. Are you willing to complete this great cause with me?"
"Really?" Minaishire's eyes lit up. After all, it was a pity to refuse such a beautiful woman. He nodded quickly and said, "I do."
"Okay." Cures helped Minaisil to sit up and whispered in his ear, "Now, be my Death Knight!" As he said that, he pierced Minaisil's heart with the sword that appeared in his hand at some time.
After being fatally injured, Minaishir widened his eyes and finally woke up. He looked down at the sword inserted in his chest, opened his mouth, but said nothing and fell to the ground.
Minaishire's eyes fell into darkness. He felt his soul floating in the endless darkness and slowly began to collapse. Is he going to die? Yes, I'm going to die...
No! I can't just die like this! I still want to take revenge, avenge the human race, the elves, the beasts and the dwarves. I want them to pay the price for the viciousness committed today! Minaishir's soul roared, and actually made his consciousness slowly wake up. When he opened his eyes again, he saw Coris standing in front of him with a smile on his face, and a message appeared in his mind.
Minaishire's face looked very bad. He knew now that he had fallen into this woman's trick, but the sword that penetrated his chest and pierced his heart whispered in his soul, telling him what to do now.
Minaishir struggled in his heart, pulled the sword out of his heart, knelt in front of Corice on one knee, and said, "Master."
Cures smiled and said, "Very good. The long sword in your hand is called Bingfrost. It is the proof of your loyalty to me. You will become the leader of the Death Knight Legion of the Curse Cult, leading the army of death to flatten the entire world!"
This declaration made Minaishire's bad mood relieve, as long as he could take revenge, what's the harm even if he sold his soul to this woman? One day, he would burn the entire Katic continent.
Curris ordered to die once, and Minaishire, who was resurrected as a Death Knight, went back first before saying, "Don't you come down yet? When will you see?"
Danica jumped from a tree next to her and said, "I haven't figured it out yet. You're just trying to get a Death Knight at such a big price?"
"Mineshill is different." Curris said briefly.
"Is it different? Why didn't I see it?" Danica said dismissively. Although Minaishire can also be called a rare genius, there are several such people in the entire continent. Why should Curis be obsessed with him?
Curris smiled and said, "This has nothing to do with you, isn't it?" Although Curris' tone was gentle, his words were thorny.
After being sarcastic by Curis, Danica's face did not change much. She nodded and said, "Yes, this has nothing to do with me. I just hope to get my own reward. I have put a lot of effort into getting a favorite guardian knight."
Thinking of paying Danica, Curis felt a little distressed, and his previous joy was diluted a lot. Although he was reluctant, Curis still took out a small box, gritted his teeth and threw it to Danica.
Danica opened and looked at it. There were three translucent crystals inside. These were soul crystals, imprisoning the souls of an angel, a demon and a human magician. After checking and confirming that, Danica smiled and said, "Okay, the transaction was completed."
Curris asked, "After that, how did you know that I have these three soul crystals on my hand?"
Danica put away the box and said with a smile: "This is the reward given by Lord Vikhamund in public. You will know after a little inquiry." After that, she blinked at Curis mischievously.
Curis took a few deep breaths and resisted the urge to tear the woman apart on the spot. These three soul crystals were indeed given by Vikhamund in public, but this so-called "in public" was just the highest level of the core of the Curse Sect. What made Curis feel most frightened was that she was sure that these people were loyal to her and none of them had anything to do with the Spiritual Academy. But obviously, Danica's infiltration into the Curse Sect is far more serious than she thought. She originally thought that the suppressed and deadly psychic academy was constantly expanding its influence in the Curse Sect. Who was it? Who quietly leaked the news to Danica? In recent days, Curis has been thinking about this issue and has begun to investigate.
Looking at the obviously stiff expression of Corres, Danica smiled happily. Of course, she did not have that much energy to penetrate the highest core of the Curse Sect. After all, she had not returned to the Curse Sect for more than ten years, and the psychic academy faction led by Hayte could only barely protect herself. But what does this matter? It is always good to scare Corres. She probably would never have thought that she had received this news from Vikhamund. After all, she was the only magician who could communicate directly with the Demon of the Abyss.
...
Minaihill's defeat announced that the war had come to an end for the time being. Although the war lasted only two days, the huge destructive power still caused Kenst to fall into devastation. Thousands of houses burned in the war in the two days were better, and ordinary civilians, including some small merchants, and the little nobles were displaced and homeless. According to Elizabeth's statistics, the two days of the war brought more than 30,000 disaster victims.
