Chapter 319 Nata Wins
Nata clearly remembers the scene when Roddy and Camilla fought against each other—the bravery of the two colliding with a "head hammer" shocked her so much, and she still remembers it vividly.
Although Camilla was still subdued by Roddy in the end, this fighting style left a very deep impression on Nata... There are many similarities between "fighting style" and human "character". The tone when she took the initiative to strike up a conversation: Although she tried her best to lower her posture, Nata still felt the strength coming to her face.
"Seven hundred years ago, the high elves civilization was destroyed. Some of the remaining elves fled into the forest, and some of them merged into human society. Now they have become the so-called descendants of the wood elves and me... and in terms of blood, you should be closer to the original The high elves are right, so I'm curious why you're in the human team
Camilla took a few steps closer and stood on the edge of the balcony, whispering the secret history about the "High Elf". Nata had never heard of these contents, and they were obviously recorded by the "Holy Meeting".
However, Nata was not interested in picking on her—not because of the attitude or tone of the other party, but because... Roddy's "trust" in Camilla made Nata feel very upset, so much so that she didn't like her at all. I don't feel good about it.
Nata doesn't know if it's jealousy or other emotions, she only knows... she and Rody have gone through several trials of life and death to have the trust they have now, but the woman in front of her was raped by him after meeting Rody for the first time. Believe almost unconditionally...
She felt uncomfortable, so she was always hostile to Camilla.
"You are very loyal to Rody, has he ever helped you?" Camilla didn't realize that she was blacklisted by Nata, and she still asked herself: "Or...is there anything special about him that deserves your attention?" respectful reasons?
"He is my teacher."
Nata looked at her calmly, "I'm his student, it's as simple as that."
Camilla was choked by her words, her eyes widened, and she continued after a while: "Roddy is a human, and you are a wood elf, so we can be together?"
"High elves and humans can be together, why can't I?"
Nata has always been speaking Blinga, and she is not proficient in it, so she didn't realize the "pun" in this sentence.
Camilla's heart moved, and she suddenly asked: "So...you like Roddy?"
Nata's ears trembled slightly, and her neck was slightly stained with a layer of blush, but her expression remained unchanged. After a little hesitation, she changed the topic calmly, and said softly: "I'm afraid you don't know that you are unconscious. How did you come back?"
Nata's mind is not slow, and her words are almost directly against the general, making Camilla's expression stagnate.
Camilla wanted to nod her head to admit it, but then she tried her best not to make any movements. She understood that if she followed the other person's words, she would lose the initiative in the conversation.
So she immediately prepared to talk about something else, but Nata didn't give her this chance, and said bluntly: "Your topic is always related to Rody, why?"
She looked at Camilla, and said softly in calm and even words: "You want to use embarrassing topics to disrupt my thoughts, and then take the opportunity to talk to me? I'm afraid you will be disappointed. I have nothing to say."
Nata dropped these words coldly, and then turned and left without hesitation. She had no intention of waiting for Camilla's answer, but turned her head when she was approaching the stairs, and said softly, "Although Roddy trusts you, I hate you." .”
I am afraid that only Nata can say "hate others" so bluntly. Looking at Nata's leaving back, Camilla couldn't help but feel an unspeakable sense of frustration, which was also mixed with a little anger—why is this wood elf smelly and hard? Not even a little bit of face?
"Hmph... Those who have a crush on the master will have no good results."
Camilla cursed angrily. She really wanted to get some information about Rody's past from Nata. After all, she didn't know what Rody had done before, but Nata was not only "oily and salty." "Enter" blocked everything, but it also made Camilla feel a little uncomfortable and embarrassed-she really wanted to know how she came back...
Apparently, instead of taking advantage of Nata, Camilla was severely "fucked".
There is no sword, light or sword in the contest between women. More often, it is just a few seemingly innocuous chats - and the first "confrontation" between Nata and Camilla, the two descendants of high elves, lasted only a few minutes. Quietly ended.
This time, the wood elf Nata won.
While Elson was shrouded in the quiet night, on the other side of the Gondola Mountains, the atmosphere of the undead Tasman Empire at the moment... was getting more gloomy.
Although it was spring, the Gondola Mountains blocked the warm and humid air, making the weather in the royal city of "St. Karen" still dry and cold. At night, the temperature still tended to approach below zero.
On the ancient streets, soldiers patrolling like a pendulum walked silently across the suspension bridge. There were not many pedestrians on the streets, and the lonely atmosphere always shrouded the place, but it set off the lively "Odyssey Palace" in the center of the city virtually. .
It's just that this kind of "lively" is not a compliment, but it stems from the dispute between Augustine and the noble council.
Politically speaking, the Tasman Kingdom has a parliamentary system unlike any other. A powerful monarch has certain powers, but at the same time, he has to accept the constraints of a group of old guys in the parliament... Compared with the generally short-lived human kingdom, such a system is obviously more suitable for the immortal souls. Therefore, the Tasman Kingdom has been advancing steadily in such "checks and balances" for hundreds of years.
There will always be large and small conflicts between Augustine and the noble council in terms of ideology and strategic guidelines, and as a powerful and somewhat radical monarch, his struggle with the stubborn conservative old guy has almost become a fixed stage—— Ansardin and Magda sent Bellom to find the "charged spar", and his struggle with these old guys never stopped.
And this action of "finding the charged spar" can be regarded as the most intense collision between him and the council... If he succeeds, his right to speak will reach its peak, and since then he will have unprecedented power—so the council's The nobles collectively raised objections, but with the smooth progress of Bellom, Augustine almost always occupied an overwhelming advantage.
The letter sent by Bellom around the new year made the old guys in the parliament have a serious sense of crisis.
Breaking through the defense line like a bamboo shoot, he quickly completed several scheduled tasks. Bellom even easily killed the "Captain Roddy" who had shamed the kingdom. One thing after another was very satisfying, which made the undead in the country cheer and excited, and at the same time made the faces of the old guys in the parliament even more ugly.
Augustine thought that this operation would go on smoothly as before, but things turned out unexpectedly—just after that letter, Bellom suddenly disappeared and completely lost contact.
The three-month silence put Augustine in a disadvantageous situation again, and the sudden shattering of Bellom's "soul box" yesterday afternoon made this majesty completely disheartened. Everyone knows that Bellom Is he really dead? No matter what happened to him, the death of the team leader and no reply from the three hundred blood crows means that the plan has completely failed
Augustine's gamble...lost.
"sip"
The pale fist smashed on the solid and cold stone throne, and the dull sound echoed in the empty palace.
After three months of persistence, what they got in the end was Bellom's unexplained death and the ridicule of those old guys. No matter how deep Augustine's city was, the anger in his chest was a little unbearable at this time.
"what is going on?"
He growled uncontrollably, but his eyes were fixed on the "soul box" that originally contained Bello's soul fragments, but now it was shattered—unlike Ansardin, Augustine found that he couldn't extract Bello at all. mum's memory or anything
This remaining soul is pale and lifeless, as if dead like its owner...
This kind of situation has never happened before. With Augustine's advanced level of more than 60, he still can't find out the reason. Such a strange thing made him even feel that he lost this time inexplicably
He wanted to investigate, but he didn't know where Bellom died; he wanted to be held accountable, but he also knew that the entire army might have been wiped out.
Three hundred blood crows are not a small number, but now they can't be retrieved at all-this means a lot of loss to the entire Tasman.
The most important thing... is that the parliament directly blamed Augustine for the failure of this operation: because of his arbitrariness, the kingdom lost important strategic resources, and disrupted the situation of the Karen Kingdom.
Don't think that these words are just simple talk, the "Noble Council" believes that Augustine's recklessness has cost the entire country, so in the next period of time, the resources and power in Augustine's hands will inevitably decline significantly
Even though he was full of anger, but without the resources and power to organize revenge, Augustine could only choose to sit on his throne and remain silent. He endured, endured, and waited for the right time to take revenge.
The undead have been waiting for too long, Augustine doesn't mind waiting for a while, he wants to see the Karen Kingdom destroyed in his own hands, this is the goal he must achieve
"Patience... Patience... When the established plan is implemented, there is still time to clean up these humans."
He slowly opened his eyes, the cruelty in his eyes flashed away, and then his body straightened up, regaining his former calmness and composure.
He is Augustine, the greatest monarch of the undead from ancient times to the present, and even in the future.
April 13th, early morning.
Rody, who was standing on the balcony, looked at the huge city in front of him, and sighed in his heart the words "everything is unpredictable"...
He clearly remembered that a full year had passed since he woke up on the Nehemia prairie.
Under the thatched shed in Nolan Village, Rody asked the comrades around him the weird question "What day is it today", and the answer he got was "April 10th".
A year has passed, and Roddy has gone from being an inconspicuous scout on the border to the master of a huge city—although this city can only be counted as an empty city at present, in time, Elson will definitely become the leader of the entire Karen Kingdom. The brightest pearl.
Looking up, the dark Pasha'er Tower stands in the field of vision. The shadow of the tower leaves a long trace in the inner city. The city's orderly planning has no sense of clutter, and the smooth and clean roads are full of high elves. The style is completely different from the smallness and messiness of Houllier City.
Looking into the distance, Roddy could see the soldiers on the inner city ring road. Carter was leading the soldiers to shout slogans, and his neat footsteps drifted faintly in the morning wind.
"The order to prepare has been issued, and it is expected to depart at noon."
Soderol's voice appeared behind him, as rigorous as ever.
Rody didn't look back, but looked at the huge city in front of him, and suddenly asked a question that seemed irrelevant: "Soderol, what were you doing today, a year ago?"
