Chapter 15 Retreat
Chapter 15 retreat
"None of you can give orders here." Liuli said again, "If you have any objections to my order, please ask your generals or the greatest nobles to come out and confront me! Twelve hours later, if you do not start to withdraw your troops, I will sentence you to treason in the name of Kaochi founding emperor Xinluan and Pope Rucia, the wisdom gods! "
At this time, the military camp was surrounded by the army of the nobles of the vassal states, looking for the source of the sound. Several magicians had also arrived near the tent, guarding the uninvited guest who had never appeared.
"Sinluan? Rucia?" It was the voice just now, "I actually want to use the name of a dead person to suppress me? It's ridiculous! Who are you? If you don't show up obediently, don't blame me for being rude!"
Seeing that the soldiers around him seemed to have protected the owner of the voice relatively tightly, Liuli also roughly guessed the identity of the man who seemed to have just grown up.
"Do you want to come to the army to have military merits and qualifications?... Since you can come out of this military camp tent, it means you are the descendant of a great noble here who can speak..." Liuli's slow tone came to everyone's ears again. In the eyes of others, Liuli did not take the people around her seriously. "Can't you see what I look like from you? Then, let you see it clearly."
As Liuli's words fell, the entire military camp suddenly became as bright as the noon in summer.
"Ah! My eyes!"
The sudden strong light caused many soldiers to lose their vision for a short time.
When people's vision gradually recovered, they finally saw Liuli's figure.
A little girl in a gorgeous black dress was sitting on the top of the big tent with a smile. The hair accessories on her head were made of unknown substances (actually a mercury gift suit covered with a layer of dark materials). Plus her long silver-white hair seemed to be composed of black and white. If it weren't for her pair of eyes as bright as blue crystals, many people would probably think that the legendary demons would have appeared again.
Seeing Liuli appear, many people present left cold sweats. This petite "assassin" actually sat openly on the tent of the main general who was most closely defended by the entire military camp. If she wanted to kill anyone, I believe that she would not be noticed by anyone. What's more terrifying is that no one has ever seen any magic that can illuminate such a large area of the military camp in an instant.
"Don't worry about who she is! Attack!" He felt as if the noble child who had walked by the God of the Underworld immediately ordered the soldiers and magicians around him.
"It turns out that I am too young, so I can't hold back..." Liuli said, "After such a big situation, the real person in charge should be back soon."
"Attack! Magician! Why don't you attack magically! Also, haven't the archer arrived yet!"
At this time, a magician walked to the noble child and said something quietly.
"No need to whisper, I know what you are talking about." Liuli said, "I can't feel the existence of magic elements at all. I can't use magic anymore, right? You should be glad that you have enjoyed the same treatment as the Magic Emperor."
When the word "magic emperor" was heard, the crowd was in a stir, especially those advanced magicians. It seemed that they already knew a little about what happened in the war before the founding of the Kaochi Kingdom.
"Who are you?" asked the noble child with a stern expression on his face, "What's the purpose of coming here!"
"Who am I... This question is not yet time for you to know~ If you are lucky enough to inherit the family, you may be able to know my identity?" Liuli said with a smile, "As for my purpose... aren't your ears very good? At the beginning, I made it clear. Withdrew completely within twelve hours. If I don't obey, I will judge you on the charge of treason."
"Damn woman..." said the noble child, "Don't worry about the big tent! You all attack me! I don't believe that so many people can't catch such a little girl!"
This time, Liuli didn't reply, but just smiled and looked at the soldiers who were busy demolishing the big tent.
"You are hard to fly now! Sophie's spy!" The nobles casually charged Liuli.
However, when the tent collapsed, what surprised everyone was that Liuli still had a warm smile on her face and sat quietly "on the spot" - the place she had been staying in the air.
"It seems that the person in charge has finally arrived~" A little further away, some obviously more trained guard soldiers were following a middle-aged man.
"What the hell happened!" the middle-aged man asked loudly.
"Father!" The nobleman's tone was filled with joy, and he walked towards the middle-aged man.
After some explanation from the noble children, the middle-aged man also understood what was going on, and then came to the edge of the collapsed tent.
"Assassin, is it you? Little girl!" said the middle-aged man, "Life is precious. I advise you not to be enemies with the Kaoqi Kingdom. If you are willing to join me, I promise to enjoy endless wealth and glory."
"Is it tempting... Indeed, I haven't received a salary for a long time since Xin Luoan returned to the embrace of the God of the Underworld~" Liuli said with a smile, "But I don't believe that what you can give me will be better than the Kaaoqi royal family~"
"..." After a moment of silence, the middle-aged man said, "Little girl...who are you?"
"'assassin'." The word Liuli was not spoken in any language in this world, but was actually pronounced in English. Apart from the twelve heroes, the only people who know this word were Emperor Kaoqi of all generations and those nobles of the vassal states.
Every time this word appears, it means that a certain family may disappear completely overnight. And those families that were lucky enough to continue to exist will no longer dare to confront the Kaaochi royal family since then.
However, it has been almost a hundred years since Liuli appeared in the Kingdom of Kaochi as an "assassin". Maybe many people have forgotten the sword of Damocles that once hung high above everyone's heads.
"'assassin'..." The middle-aged man repeated once, as if he was recalling.
At this time, Nero suddenly ran out of the barrier.
"Babe, is it dawn..." Nero said in a daze, "Why do I feel like I've just slept for a while..."
Seeing Nero appear, the oldest magician was stunned and hurried to the middle-aged man.
"Master, I remembered that in the Widsk Magic Association, I saw relevant records...'assassin'..." Later, the magician whispered more and more, and even the nobles standing on the other side of the middle-aged man could not hear what the magician was saying.
"Nini, keep sleeping. I just need some light to do something."
"Oh... Then I'll continue to sleep... It's so sleepy..."
With the words of the old magician, the expression on the middle-aged man's face became more and more serious.
Finally, the middle-aged man nodded and walked a few steps towards Liuli alone.
"Please forgive me for being disrespectful just now." The middle-aged man thought of Liuli's grand noble ceremony and continued, "But, since you are the 'that one', why should we stop the Kaochi Kingdom from becoming stronger?"
"'Make the Kingdom of Kaochi stronger'... It's such a big hat." Liuli said, "But will this behavior really make Kaochi stronger? Don't ask me, ask yourself, do you really believe this statement?"
Hearing Liuli's rhetoric, the middle-aged man fell silent.
"I don't object to the expansion of territory." Liuli continued, "even if you can do better than the current Kaochi royal family, I will not stop you from becoming the new emperor. But obviously, all you can do is just a vassal state. So, retreat quickly, otherwise you should be very clear about the consequences of treason."
After hearing Liuli's words, the middle-aged man's expression changed several times. After a few minutes, he finally made up his mind.
"Okay, I understand." said the middle-aged man, "but, in this army, I do not have absolute control. There are a few nobles who do not accept my orders."
"But didn't those cowards appear?" Liuli said with a smile, "I know your purpose, but this is a reward for your obedience. However, if they are obedient, it's up to you to do so, it's up to you~Uncle."
"..." The middle-aged man was silent again, then turned around and ordered loudly, "Tell me my order and withdraw my troops! Those who do not listen to the order will be punished for treason!"
"Father! How can you listen to this little girl!" The tone of the noble children was full of incredible, "How long has the family prepared for this matter? How much money and hard work have been spent!"
"One day, you will understand, my son." A hint of depressedness was brought to the middle-aged man's tone, "The orders of some people must not be violated."
"But, father..."
"When you inherit my position, I will tell you everything I know... Now, it's not yet time you should know. So be obedient."
"Okay...father."
Finally, under Liuli's gaze, the vassal armies of the Kaoqi Kingdom slowly retreated.
"Huh~ This kind of thing is really troublesome~" When the army had disappeared from Liuli's vision, Liuli let out a long sigh, "I hope that after this time, the Kingdom of Kaoqi will be calm for a while."
