in the name of the queen

Chapter 154 Princess, it’s your turn to save the brave!

After all the remaining werewolves were dealt with and the corpses were cleaned up, Jace trotted all the way to Roland and Sif.

While jogging, he suddenly discovered a problem.

He knew that the Count was the Queen, but Her Majesty probably didn't want him to "know" that.

If the Queen were a Count, he should report to Roland.

If the Count were the Queen, he would have to report to Sif.

What should we do now?
In a flash, Jace figured it out.

Since Her Majesty is now an earl and deputy governor, she is younger than Roland.

What kind of game she plays with Roland is not something that he, a little light cavalry major, should worry about.

Just do your thing, Jess!
He stood up straight and saluted Roland, reported the results loudly, and then began to review.

Compared with the mean and shameless Minister of War and the brigade commander, the Governor is a better leader.

Although there are a lot of burdens, as long as the right price is offered, someone will naturally be willing to take over.

Although it was a bit too much for him to say this, as a cavalry captain who came to the rescue, it was appropriate to give him a kind reminder.

Alina walked out of the shadows, stopped Roland from lighting the lamp, and said softly:

"Miss Revenge, how is the situation?"

When he came out this time, Roland found that Sussex's national fortune was still on the rise, and there were talents everywhere. It was just that the gentlemen in the imperial capital lacked the eyes to spot talents, so they felt that no one was available.

Returning to the flagship, Roland looked up and saw that the lights in Bridges' command room were still on.

When Sif returns to the imperial capital, it will be time for the old guys to collectively burst into gold coins.

Roland thought to himself, isn't this nonsense?

Sighing softly, she said faintly: "You got it all right. Robert rallied the team under the banner of his father and acknowledged my identity, but he did not intend to hand over the leadership to me."

There would be no movement hiding here at this time, and there would be no one else besides Alina.

"Sorry, that didn't go well."

If these burdens die during the long journey, the rest will be all wealth.

He just thought it was too cruel and didn't want to crush Alina's dream with his own hands.

Roland took out his pocket watch, looked at it, and said with a smile: "It has only been less than eight minutes since the gunshot, and it only took such a short time from assembling the squadron on duty to setting off and rushing to the scene of the incident. You should have been sleeping in your armor. "

Facing Roland's praise, he said calmly:

"Take this money and buy a beer for the tired soldiers tonight."

She had to stop Roland from lighting the lamp, otherwise she would not be able to hide her ugly expression.

"My Lord Governor, I will return to the camp and hand over the prisoners to the Knights. After all, it is not safe here. Please also ask your Lord Governor and Lord Earl to return to the flagship as soon as possible."

Roland appreciated this attitude very much.

Although most of the more than 30,000 people are old, weak, women and children, there are also thousands of young and middle-aged people, as well as many administrative and technical talents. This is huge wealth and also Robert's bargaining chip.

Without his reminder, Roland didn't want to spend the night in the city.

He asked softly: "What else did he say?"

Just after returning to the room, Roland sensed someone behind the door.

This is Roland's evaluation of him.

"I'm not the only one, the whole squadron on duty is on standby because they are worried about an accident."

As long as these people are made good use of, the three overseas provinces plus the talented people from the mainland who are attracted by their reputation will be enough to form a new administrative system.

A very dedicated and excellent general.

Roland had already guessed this result, so he was naturally not surprised.

If there is a problem, he does not shirk responsibility and takes over the problem first. He is a responsible young man.

Obviously, the gunfire just now also woke him up.

Since you can ambush once, who can guarantee that the enemy will not plant a bomb and poison gas in the room?

Jace jumped slightly and took the purse with a smooth movement. Seeing that Count Sif did not speak, he quickly said goodbye to the two leaders.

The tip of Jace's nose was slightly sour.

Roland took out a small bag of gold coins from his arms and threw it over.

"He wants to meet you tonight, but he won't tell you what to talk about." Alina was obviously in a low mood.

"Very good, starting from today, your name will also be included in the performance appraisal. Today's timely dispatch will count as 10 performance points."

"It's not difficult to guess. He has leverage and is qualified to sell it at a better price."

Entering the city was just a formality to express his forgiveness for the Var City State's rude behavior of maliciously blocking the ship.

That's right, Lord Governor, you still understand us.

"Your Majesty the Governor, you were attacked nearby. I came late to rescue you. Please punish me, Your Majesty the Governor."

Alina grabbed Roland's sleeve suddenly, her voice trembling with grievance, "Roland, I'm sorry for you. I made everyone's trip in vain. You can punish me any way you want when I get back."

"What are you talking about? Who said it was a waste of time?"

Roland struck the match and lit the candle.

Under the slightly dim candlelight, looking at Alina's tear-stained eyes, Roland pointed to the seat opposite and said:
"I know you are sad, but don't be impatient and let me analyze it slowly."

Alina turned around and wiped away her tears with her sleeves, sat down suspiciously, and looked at Roland in disbelief.

Can this be reversed?

Roland gathered his thoughts for a while and asked softly: "Where did you and Robert meet?"

"I sent out a secret signal to meet him, and then we arranged to meet him in a hidden valley outside the camp."

Roland nodded and continued to ask: "Does anyone else know about your meeting?"

"Definitely not. He said that my identity is sensitive and cannot be exposed for the time being."

Roland clapped his hands happily, smiled and said, "That's great."

Alina looked at Roland in shock. Robert clearly wanted to exclude her from the core circle of exiles. Is this considered a good thing?
Roland smiled and said: "Robert has selfish motives, and they are very serious."

Alina is speechless, isn’t this nonsense.

Seeing Alina's somewhat confused eyes, Roland patiently helped her analyze.

"Tell me, who wants Robert to die the most now?"

"Jin Yuan Government." Although her mind was a little confused, Alina could not answer such a simple question incorrectly.

"Very good. Let me ask you again, is the werewolf the unique secret weapon of Jin Yuan?"

"I'm not sure if other countries have it, but our country is the only one that breeds and uses werewolves on a large scale."

"What would the rest of the homeless camp think if a werewolf killed Robert?"

Alina's eyes lit up, and she thought of Roland's plan.

Since Robert has selfish motives and hasn't told anyone else, just kill him.

The other leaders in the camp were far less ambitious and prestige than him. When the leader was killed by the Golden Kite people, people were panicking. Alina made a brilliant appearance, and the overall situation was certain.

Alina whispered softly: "I just saw you and Sif taking care of those werewolves. I believed you were fine, so I didn't show up. I didn't expect you to include their power."

Roland smiled and asked, "Can you lock my position?"

"If you put the tickets together, I can sense your approximate location. If you don't want me to know, then take them apart."

"That's not possible. I need Captain Alina's support at any time." Roland said half-jokingly, exposing the matter.

"Let's go and see Mr. Robert. He definitely wants to get a new quote from me and compare it with other forces."

Shrugging, Roland's eyes gradually turned cold.

"He is your father's most valued student, but he uses your father's political legacy for personal gain. If that's all, he doesn't even care about the life and death of these people."

"It's normal for people to have selfish motives, but it's despicable to use the blood of your companions for your own benefit. He deserves to die, and you don't have to have any psychological burden."

Alina said in a deep voice: "I understand, I will kill him with my own hands."

Everyone will experience ups and downs on their way to growth.

Robert's blood will make Alina more clearly aware of the indifference of the world.

His death will not be in vain.

Roland put on black clothes and walked with Alina towards the nameless valley where they had just met.

Alina went to meet Robert, and Roland was waiting here.

In this operation, he did not call Sif.

Sif is very tired tonight and has just gone to bed. Let her rest well. He could also feel that Alina probably didn't want to be helped by Sif when she was in such a mess.

She was once a proud daughter of heaven, and it was already very sad to be reduced to this. If she was "helped" by the equally young and outstanding Sif again, you can imagine the pain in her heart.

Roland doesn't understand girls, but he understands people's hearts.

The more troubled a person is, the more fragile their self-esteem is and need to be protected.

They are friends, so they naturally want to protect each other.

Just as his thoughts drifted to a few centuries ago, footsteps sounded.

Robert is here.

He wasn't the only one coming.

Judging from the footsteps, there are not many of them, they should be his trusted guards.

Alina and Robert walked into the valley together, leaving the four guards outside.

Alina, who was walking side by side with Robert, winked at Roland, hinting that there was someone outside the valley.

Roland said nothing, but gave her a knowing look.

He looked at Alina's father's most proud disciple with some curiosity.

Robert's lips are a little thin and his facial features are very delicate. He has a standard Golden Kite appearance. His best feature is his eyes.

The pupils were colorless, dark and somewhat hollow.

It seems that there is no emotion.

Robert smiled and extended his right hand to Roland.

"I have also heard about Mr. Roland's style of dealing with things. I don't dare to come to see you alone."

"Mr. Robert really thinks highly of me."

Roland stretched out his hand to shake Robert's hand, it was cold and the temperature was too low to be human.

He vaguely felt something was wrong, and while retracting his hand, he squeezed the white rose pendant that Sif gave him.

sloppy.

Alina has no idea what the real trump card of her father's good student is.

There is an irreconcilable conflict between them and Robert, and tonight is the best time to kill him.

Only by killing Robert tonight can we frame the case to the Golden Kite without any flaws, and we can even resonate with each other because both parties were attacked by werewolves.

Maybe Sif had gone to bed now, but there was no way, she was needed here.

Knight of the White Rose, come at the call of your friends.

There was no emotion in Robert's eyes when he smiled, and the cold chill made the already not warm winter night even colder.

Roland always had a feeling that maybe Robert was not human.

Since the Kingdom of Jin Yuan can conduct experiments on sea monsters, raise werewolves, and form cavalry with centaurs, it is also reasonable to have other non-human beings.

I just didn’t expect that Robert was hiding so deeply that even Alina didn’t know his details.

Non-my family, its heart must be different.

If he were a human being, he would feel somewhat guilty selling money to his fellow survivors who escaped side by side. It would be explained if Robert was not a human being.

Alina stood at the mouth of the valley while Roland and Robert began to negotiate.

While the negotiations were going on, Sif, who was performing a concert in her sleep, suddenly woke up.

The heart-shaped pendant that she refused to take off while sleeping suddenly became hot.

Roland squeezed her white rose pendant hard!
She felt a palpitation in her heart.

With Roland's character, he would never ask her for help unless he encountered an unsolvable problem.

Sif quickly put the armor on her body.

She didn't even have time to slowly put on the three layers of armor, but directly wrapped the cotton armor tightly, picked up the weapon and set off.

She felt a little regretful.

No wonder the troops on duty have to wear armor and rest.

It's really too late in an emergency.

Never sleep like this in a war zone again! Sif silently remembered this lesson.

She was flying in the open field, and the other pendant was like a firefly flickering in the night sky. Although it was weak, it guided her in the direction of running wildly.

Sif's breathing was not smooth as she was running, and her heartbeat was chaotic.

She blamed herself secretly.

Roland protected her so well that she was able to put on soft pajamas and have a good sleep tonight.

Is this a place for enjoyment?

of course not.

Roland would never criticize her harshly, nor would he make her ready to fight like the warrior on duty tonight.

Sif's eyes shone as brightly as stars.

Fortunately, Roland still remembered to squeeze the pendant to call for support.

She moved quickly and arrived near the valley in less than fifteen minutes.

In the darkness, her [Perception] was fully activated, observing the surroundings without rushing into the valley.

Soon, she saw several strong men guarding the entrance to the valley.

These people look like they are not easy to mess with, they have cold faces, and each of them is armed with a gun.

There was no movement in the valley, and it seemed that the battle was over.

Sif's heart was racing, but she tried to calm down.

If her guess was correct, Roland had been captured or pretended to surrender.

With Roland's character, he would definitely not suffer the immediate loss.

If he escaped, these people wouldn't just stand there at the mouth of the valley.

There is only one truth, Roland was captured.

The warrior is waiting for the princess to save him!

After deciding on the battle plan, Sif's heart calmed down a little.

Although she was anxious, she didn't rush forward.

She must kill these people silently and rush into the valley to save people.

If you move a little too slowly or startle the people inside, something will happen.

Fortunately, her current extraordinary profession is [Elven Princess]. Although it is not as suitable as the elves themselves, she still has many elven characteristics.

Such as nighttime invisibility.

Sif squinted her eyes and looked around, and found a small raccoon foraging for food at night.

"I'm sorry, little guy. Please be a bait. I'll try my best to keep you alive. If you unfortunately die, I will also promise to add more seasonings to make you taste better. There will be no waste."

She prayed silently and waved to the little raccoon. The little raccoon happily ran towards Sif, and was picked up by Sif and patted her head, showing an expression of enjoyment.

When approaching the entrance of the valley, Sif worked very hard to communicate with the little raccoon. Although she had learned how to communicate with small animals in the Dream Ruins, she had never tried it.

Fortunately, the little raccoon was very smart and understood Sif, and obediently walked towards the valley.

Taking advantage of the little raccoon's cover, Sif moved close to the bush cat.

"who?"

The four people guarding the entrance of the valley were startled at the same time, and soon discovered that it was a small nocturnal animal.

One of them was about to go over to check, but was stopped by the leader.

"Bode, don't waste your time, that's a forest raccoon."

The strong man known as Bode shook his head with regret.

"What a pity. Forest raccoons are very rare. The meat is said to be very fragrant."

Just as they were teasing each other, they suddenly felt a chill on their backs.

The four people quickly dispersed and turned around one after another, showing extremely high tactical literacy.

Unfortunately, they were unlucky and met Sif who was determined to kill.
