The Amber Sword: Act 445 Eve of Destiny II
Cagliss awakened from the violent shock, subconsciously touched an one's own forehead, all blood, but he examined the one's own body carefully, but found that although there was no pain everywhere, there was no trauma.
He groaned and pushed away the crushed stone, only to find that the blood on his body was an already completely stiff corpse flowing down, lying face down on the crushed stone, it was a Knight wearing armour, the Ophelia family's emblem on the gray armor.
Cagliss was confused, but he still subconsciously checked whether the Knight was still alive. There was no doubt that the other party already was out of breath for a long a period of time. The fatal injury was a penetrating injury behind it, which directly tore the heart and lungs. .
He touched the rolled armor with his hands. If he was thinking about it, this could never be the wound caused by the explosion. This shows that someone artificially created the explosion and attacked the guards of the Count mansion.
Cagliss suddenly hit a sudden in his heart. His immediately thought of who these people were aiming for, Archduke of Lantolian, or His Highness Little Prince?
It's broken.
He is an accompanying military officer in this mission. As the mission arrived at Captain of White Lion Guards in Lantolian, it is his natural responsibility to protect the safety of His Highness Halutz. If something goes wrong with Little Prince in this attack, he will not only die and say goodbye to Lord Thane, but he will also be a Aouine's sinner.
Thinking of this, Cagliss was whole body broke out in cold sweat almost immediately. The pain on his body seemed to disappear instantly. He stood up from the ground, picked up the Knight sword, and walked outside the courtyard.
already is empty in the courtyard, and the Count mansion that collapsed half is still burning, and there are sounds of breaking things from time to time. There are dozens of Knight dead bodies scattered near and far. Cagliss could not help but took a sip of cold air, and re-evaluated the scale of the attack.
Suddenly he thought, and reached into his pocket with a ruby pin. The ruby above is actually a messenger crystal that can be used to communicate with each other within a certain distance. Pulling out the pin, Cagliss pressed his hand on the metal base of the ruby and the pin, but his brain was buzzing in confusion, and several attempts failed to stimulate the gem's effectiveness.
Just when he was anxious. At this moment a short cry came out:
"Mr. Cagliss!"
Cagliss Instant raises head.
I saw Halutz running with Mikaya in this direction: "Mr. Cagliss, you're fine."
"I should be right," Cagliss felt as if he had come alive again. He looked up and down the Aouine's future king, and then confirmed that the other party was indeed intact. Only long sighed in relief: "Where have you been, Your Highness Halutz?"
"Mikaya saved me." Halutz replied, introducing: "She is Mikaya, and the teacher knows her."
Actually, they only had one side with Mikaya in shallow water town last time, but Halutz knew that one's own Eldest Princess did not like to be mixed with people of unknown origin. When he introduced this, he was still slightly guilty.
But Cagliss didn't care, just a little surprised that one's own Lord Thane would know this little girl. He took a closer look at the latter and thought it was really a beauty embryo. But he said, "Thank you very much, this Mikaya is a small Young Lady."
In front of a stranger, Mikaya behaved very well. She raised her skirt and gave a generous gift to Cagliss.
"Mr. Cagliss, this is probably a premeditated attack." Halutz told him everything he had seen before.
Cagliss frowned. He had expected it, but when he heard that the attacker was Buga, he couldn't help but feel troublesome.
In general, Buga people are descendants of silver, which is the highest. Not to mention that they, as wizard, are natural strong men. Their empire on the sky is existence that is out of reach for mortals, of course at this time of the day. Including Cagliss, not many Aouinians know the fact that the sky empire already of Buga people was destroyed.
However, it is suffocating to fight against such a behemoth anyway.
But he was full of doubts. The relationship between Trentheim and Buga people has always been good. The Buga people also helped Lord Thane build a fleet, not to mention the relationship between Thurman and Aouine itself. could it be that is when Archduke of Lantolian offended Buga people. Retaliation?
But it also doesn't seem to explain why the other party was looking for Little Prince.
"What shall we do next, Mr. Cagliss?" Halutz asked.
Cagliss looked back in the direction of Count mansion, and collapsed most of the Count mansion's main entrance. The corpses of several Knight were faintly visible in the hall. It seems that Duke of Lantolian should leave first, and the attacker pursued in that direction. .
But what made him a little strange was why the other party was interested in Elara's newborn baby girl.
"If all this is true," he replied, "then Bernice may not be already. It is really not easy for us to escape from here. Your Excellency Halutz, you have a good idea If it is possible to contact Mr. Ike, they are indeed a feasible solution. Although they were attacked here, Lantolian people still have troops in Bernice ... "
He paused and couldn't help complaining: "Unfortunately I don't know where they went, nor do they know where Lasmeque Young Lady and her friends went, and of course the **** **** of Shita!"
"Mr. Cagliss, Mikaya, she may have a way," Halutz said suddenly.
"Huh?" Cagliss looked at that little girl.
The little girl nodded and replied milkily: "Sir, we can leave the Bernice from the sewer, I know there is a way to the shore of the doe lake in the forest of Aruba."
"Sewer?" Cagliss remembered that Aruba was a military fortress from Lantolian to Viero. There were complete sewers and defense facilities here, but it was at least a century ago. He couldn't help but be a little surprised: How do you know? "
Mikaya bowed her head and whispered, "That's my home."
"Oh my god," Cagliss couldn't help but sigh: "Poor boy, why didn't Lord Thane take you away? You are better at Trentheim than here."
"That's not to blame Mr Brando," Mikaya replied, "I don't want to, my father and mother are here, I don't want to leave them."
Cagliss shook his head, but Halutz looked at Mikaya suspiciously, always feeling that the latter did not tell the truth.
At least when did she meet the teacher again?
However, Cagliss still agreed to this proposal. They do n’t know how many attackers Bernice has, and the situation in the town is not clear. The best option is to leave this right and wrong place temporarily, especially for Halutz. There is no room for loss of identity.
But Halutz is still a little worried about Shita, Cagliss disagrees: "That guy hasn't been seen for a long time. God knows where it went."
"But ..."
"Nothing to do, Your Highness Halutz, Shita is a dragon no matter how hard it is, a timid dragon is hard to go wrong." Cagliss mentioned the word 'timid fear' in his tone. Full of sarcasm: "Lasmeque Young Lady they were not at the banquet. The impact should be small. Right now we should move to a safe place as soon as possible, and then contact them to prevent them from being involved in secondary risks because they are worried about us."
Halutz just nodded and agreed to the proposal.
...
Count of Violet was originally transformed by the barracks of the Bernice fortress. Although the building has been overthrown several times since the age of Iron Feather, many original designs have been preserved in the internal structure. In addition to defense considerations, it is also for the purpose of Used as a temporary shelter.
Today, obviously this kind of effect comes in handy. Although the surface has collapsed more than half, the area inside the Count mansion is still astonishingly large. The corridors and various corridors are winding around. If there are no familiar people leading the way, Otherwise it is easy to be among them get lost.
But for its original owner, naturally it is not an obstacle of existence. Ike quickly led his wife and daughter to a road in the mansion leading to the basement.
The light in the hallway was very dim. The doors of many rooms were wide open. The maids and attendants escaped cleanly at the beginning of the turmoil, but Ike did not know how many people could escape safely. It is unknown how many intruders are in the town of Bernice at this moment.
Patrol Cavalry and the town guards have not moved so far, which made his heart sink straight down. Outside the Count mansion is the night that Bernice should have been peaceful. But the night was not peaceful. The flashes of light that erupted from time to time, and the shouting and killing from far away, and the sorrow of despair, rendered this restless and oppressive night especially heavy.
He took one's own's wife Yula through the long corridor, and there were only two followers beside him. Fortunately, there was a nurse in the mansion who had not had time to escape, and now he is holding their daughter Elara.
Strange to say, in this atmosphere, the baby girl fell asleep, as if not affected by the surrounding environment. When Ike from time to time saw her daughter's quiet face, her heart was also much calmer.
He held his wife's hand tightly, feeling the warmth uploaded from the Yula hand, Yula and did not say a word, but all his feelings were already silent.
