Elite Mages’ Academy

The rebels have surrounded the capital city!

At the moment when he heard the news, Xiao Lin thought that Liang Taibai was joking with himself, but the other party's bloodshot pupils and the haggard and anxious face made him understand that today is not April Fool's Day, and it is not the time to make a joke.

Xiao Lin put on his clothes as quickly as possible, and then followed Liang Taibai into the palace in a hurry.

"During the day, it's not that the rebels are still a month away from us, and that there are also troops sent by the royal family to intercept them. How can they be here now?"

"We are also working hard to investigate, but now is not the time to consider these." Liang Taibai sighed.

"How many troops does the king have?" Xiao Lin guessed something from Liang Taibai's face.

"Three thousand people remain."

"Where are the rebels?"

"The details are not clear, but according to a rough estimate of the guards at the head of the city, the number is at least 20,000."

"Rely!" Xiao Lin couldn't help but explode. Even if defending the city is more advantageous than siege, the difference in the number of people is a little too big.

Liang Taibai strode forward, while continuing to say the worse news: "The 3,000 defending the city are basically old, weak, sick and disabled, because the main force was sent out by the king to intercept the rebels not long ago, and the ghost knows that group of idiots are on the way. What did they do? You know they just left a few days ago!" Even Liang Taibai, who is always gentle and elegant, couldn't help yelling out loud, despising the combat effectiveness of the principality’s army.

Xiao Lin stunned slightly, and fell silent thoughtfully.

A quarter of an hour later, the two had arrived directly at the palace. Although the king had imposed a curfew for a long time, under the privilege of the special pass of the Embassy of Dawning College, the road was unimpeded, let alone obstruction, and no one even dared to interrogate it.

In the magnificent palace, Xiao Lin saw the king of this principality. Although the previous **** list included almost all of the king's children, only the king himself was excluded.

Originally, according to the military plan, as a sincere negotiation with the rebels, this hapless king had just voted for his fame, and Xiao Lin had heard from Liang Taibai that many senior executives of the Shuguang Academy were not satisfied with this king, not only Because Qiangwei’s civil strife has caused a lot of extra troubles for Dawn Academy, and the relationship between Qiangwei and Dawning has not been very good over the years. Even when Dawning proposed to build more resurrection towers in Qiangwei’s territory in the past two years, he was actually accused by the king. The prevarication was also rejected.

Obviously, even without this incident, it would be difficult for Dawn Academy to tolerate this guy continuing to sit on the king’s throne, and this was the first time Xiao Lin saw this king who dared to oppose Dawn Academy after he came to the capital. Before the **** set off, they bypassed the king directly.

The king's sideburns were gray and his sparse beard looked very old, but in fact, Xiao Lin had long known from intelligence that this king was only in his forties. In formal occasions, he wears a crown on his head, but it is not very luxurious. Only eight rose-shaped red diamonds are inlaid on the crown.

Inside the palace is a huge round table. Ministers sit near the round table, while the king sits high on the front steps overlooking the crowd. Of course, as the ambassadors of the Shuguang Academy, Xiao Lin and Liang Taibai do not need to sit and be overlooked. On the seat, two additional stools were set up beside the throne, which was regarded as equal to the king.

After the civil strife intensified, the ministers of the royal capital ran and hid a lot. There are only seven or eight people in this palace. They are all waiting, but they are somewhat surprised by Xiao Lin’s arrival. , But for them, what they need is a representative of the Dawn Academy, as for who does not matter.

After Xiao Lin and Liang Taibai sat down, this temporary meeting officially began. First, a man armed with a general like a general stood up and reported the current situation.

"Shortly after nightfall, there was movement in the automatic guard tower at the East City Gate. Of course, the soldiers who were in charge of guarding the city thought that there was something wrong, so they went out to check, and then there was a brief conflict... I happened to be nearby at the time, and then I found something was wrong. , I turned on the searchlight funded by Dawn Academy, and found that a large army was approaching, and it had basically formed an encirclement..."

Liang Taibai immediately asked and asked a lot of information in detail, such as the number of enemies and their forces, including formation and equipment, etc. However, because of the rush, the general did not have much information. He was shocked and ran back immediately. Report this first and wait for the king's decision.

"It must be a rebel army, don't think about it!" Some people were a little dissatisfied with Liang Taibai's doubts, but they were not easy to express this emotion too explicit, so they turned to the king anxiously: "His Royal Highness, while the enemy is not yet Completely encircled, plus night cover, please immediately organize troops to carry out an assault!"

"Yeah! Please leave immediately! Only His Royal Highness can never be caught, otherwise our Qiangwei will have no future!"

"His Royal Highness, please leave immediately! Now the king has almost no defensive strength. As long as we break out and join the army dispatched two days ago, we still have a chance!"

Several ministers spoke earnestly, all persuading the king to immediately, and when they spoke, they would cast daring eyes at Liang Taibai. Of course, they also knew that Dawn Academy deliberately removed the king from the **** list and intended to let him The king died.

The king waved his hand slightly to signal the ministers to be quiet ~www.ltnovel.com~ and turned his head to look at Liang Taibai's side, and asked slowly: "I don't know what suggestions and opinions the two have?"

The king's old face was very calm, and he didn't panic at all because of the siege. He didn't know whether he was pretending to be calm, or he knew that he had become an abandoned son of Dawning Academy and had no escape, so he abandoned himself.

Xiao Lin speculated to himself, but no matter what the reason, he absolutely did not have any good impression of the king who met for the first time. This has nothing to do with Dawn Academy, this Principality, and the hungry poor in the Principality. It doesn't matter, just because the man sitting on the throne is Ibea's biological grandfather!

Although Ibea’s cute little Lolita’s words are true and false, making it difficult to identify, but in terms of her life experience, Ibea has basically no lies. Xiao Lin also learned from this. It was confirmed in various quiet investigations.

Ibea is indeed a mixed race of humans and vampires. Her biological mother is the eldest princess of the Duchy of Rose, who is the daughter of the king in front of him, so Ibea is naturally his granddaughter.

But Ibea’s childhood was very miserable. The San Carlo family bloodline in her body made her destined to go with the danger. His father was hunted to death because of this, and the Rose Royal family never recognized her. Existed, even forcibly expelling the princess from the palace. After the princess lost too much blood and died after giving birth to Ibea, Ibea lived with his uncle, the old man. (To be continued.) Ps: Book friends, I am the cabbage of the end.
