Apocalyptic Dragonborn Lord

Chapter 254 Girl, she's gone
When Stannis returned to Qiwei Ni, the place had undergone earth-shaking changes from when he left.

For example, the entire castle has been transformed into a large barracks.

Although it is winter, the snow on the ground has already been trampled away by people coming and going, exposing the dark mud underneath. Most of the people here are new faces. Stannis neither knows them nor has they seen them before. The lord.

"Hey, that guy looks like a stunned blue knight at first glance, should we blackmail him?" Luo Cha, a veteran of the Black Dog Mercenary Corps, shouldered their battle captain, Croby, with great interest. looked at Stannis carefully.

Crobie, with a terrible scar on his face, has served in the Black Dog Regiment for ten years. Most of those who joined him earlier died in battle or fled, but he managed to get into a team of 20 people by luck and seniority. The captain of the battle team, the experience of fighting all the year round has long trained his eyes to see people. For example, the guy on the horse now is definitely not a "babe".

"Don't think about Rocha. Although that guy looks like a rookie, have you seen the two swords on his waist?"

"I see, what's the matter?" Luo Cha didn't know why.

"Which of those two swords didn't suck the blood of thousands of people? So I advise you to get rid of this idea as soon as possible, otherwise your head will be beheaded, and I won't collect the body for you."

"You are a fucking coward!" Although he said so, Rocha still admitted it, because he knew that there was nothing wrong with following this guy.

Carefully avoiding the big lump of disgusting excrement at the main entrance of the castle, Stannis finally returned to his castle. It seemed that his army and hired reinforcements had assembled. Fortunately, he was not in the territory, otherwise all the cumbersome The wrangling and diplomacy made him feel dizzy.

"Your Excellency, why did you leave the territory at such an important time, do you know that we have been looking for you for several days!"

As soon as he entered the castle hall, Bachelor Romon, who was standing next to the lord's seat, shouted angrily, while his granddaughter was standing behind grandpa and secretly waved her hand at him.

Stannis also stuck out his tongue at the little girl, but facing Maester Romond's angry eyes, Stannis still pretended to cough twice, pretending to be serious and said: "I have been looking for a way to destroy the seal of God these days. , because it happened suddenly, so I didn't have time to tell you."

Upon hearing that the lord left without saying goodbye with this important purpose in mind, Bachelor Romon frowned, "Then, Your Excellency, have you found the answer?"

Stannis proudly walked past him, kicked Robert off the earl's throne, sat down with a long sigh of relief, and replied, "Of course I found it. It turns out that only the dragon's roar that I brought with me can destroy God." print."

"That's great!" everyone in the hall cheered.

"Then when are we going to set off, my lord?" Korodov, who was fully armed, looked eager to try. After all, this was the first time he had personally participated in such a large-scale war, and his whole body became active.

Stannis wasn't in a hurry, and now with every day of delay, more people joined him, "As soon as the mage arrives, we will set off."

Bachelor Romon hurriedly approached him and whispered to him: "Vincent arrived at the castle yesterday, he is in the small dark room now, he is a little impatient to wait, and I have not disclosed to outsiders that he is working with us for fear of causing unnecessary panic.”

Stannis, who knew he had made a slip of the tongue, nodded quickly and said, "Of course, of course, I will go to see him after the war council convenes the war meeting."

Soon, the war hall in the castle was full of life. It had not seen so many people standing in it for a long time.

In addition to Stannis' subordinates, there are also various lords and their knights, the head and deputy head of the Black Dog Mercenary Corps, and Lieutenant Vladi, who is the commander of the Imperial Army this time. He should be called a captain now. , Stannis was very disappointed that that silly elder sister Sharaki didn't come.

As the host of the meeting, Barrow I motioned for silence, then nodded to Stannis, indicating that he could speak.

The young lord took a step forward. Before speaking, he actually looked around at the faces of the people in the hall. Some people here he knew, some people he had never seen before. Not long ago, he was even with some of them. People are facing each other with swords, but now they are standing here for the same purpose, which is to save mankind.

"Everyone, first of all, I would like to thank you for coming, and I will not say the polite words at the beginning. In short, you also know that the enemies we jointly attack this time are not human beings, so there is no spoils to seize."

The group of people from the Black Dog Group made annoyed noises.

"However, I can assure you that as long as you win this battle, your descendants and all descendants will be infinitely grateful to you, because you have fought bloody battles for their existence!"

Stannis left the war council after speaking briefly, without turning back aggressively, and the next step was for Korodov to deploy the battle plan, because this time it was a feint to buy time for Stannis to approach, so what kind of ambush was set up? There is no need to think about it, and they will attack unreservedly as soon as they come up, attracting the attention of the god seal, making it empty around it.

Most people have no objection to this, in fact they don't even know what they are facing, but as knights they still decide to fight hard for the ultimate glory.

After the meeting was over, the knights and mercenaries went back to make preparations. The departure date was set for the day after tomorrow. Stannis specially asked his two regiments to take a day off tomorrow so that they could go back and reunite with their relatives. Know how many people can return after this decisive battle.

And in order to prevent being raped, Stannis also asked Hillier to stay in his territory with Randall. If there is an emergency, they can resist it for a while.

After everything was settled, Stannis and Maester Romond went to meet Esente secretly in the small dark room.

"By the way." Walking on the road, Stannis finally remembered why he felt a sense of loss as soon as he returned to the castle.

"Where did Aya go?"

When the two stood at the door of the small black room, Stannis finally couldn't help asking.

Maester Romond opened the door, and then spoke in a voice that did not irritate him as much as possible.

"I'm sorry to inform you of this unfortunate news, Your Excellency, Miss Aya disappeared the day after you left."
