Alien Knights

Looking at the mighty team outside the gate of Froststone, Todd, who was standing on the gate, frowned and said nothing.

"According to your order, the Froststone army will evacuate the people in the occupied area back to the city before retreating. There are nearly 70,000 people in total, and this is the third batch. It is expected that the population will be completely relocated by the end of this month."

Evie, who was standing beside Todd, said so, and took out a list and submitted it: "Also, this is the loss list of the battle group."

Todd took the list and sighed helplessly while looking at it: "1100 soldiers lost, 19 cities lost... three chapter leaders died in battle, even Casper..."

Evie nodded and said: "The Kingdom of Ulster also lost 3,000 soldiers in this war, but those Connaught people have been maintaining their strength and watching from the sidelines, except for some casualties when they attacked the Rongka fortress. , the army establishment is still relatively complete."

Todd returned the list to Minnie: "Where is the coalition of Ulster and Connaught attacking now?"

Evie paused for a moment, then said, "They didn't continue marching..."

"Didn't continue marching?"

"They're fighting, fighting over the land that we gave up on."

Todd turned his head quite unexpectedly, looked at the Valkyrie beside him, and asked in disbelief: "Stop attacking? Fighting for land?! What do these people think?!"

"The two kingdoms of Ulster and Connaught are feuds in themselves. The reason why they joined forces this time is entirely because of the rise of Froststone City."

Evie shrugged towards Todd: "Facing the victory of this battle, unlike the commanders who participated in the battles of Ulster and Connaught, those nobles who hid in the rear couldn't see the cruelty of the war at all, They thought that the strength of Froststone City was nothing more than that. So, naturally, they focused on the land they had regained."

Todd couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this: "This result is really surprising."

"If you want me to say, they are a group of men without eggs! They fight like fleeing plague chickens, but they have energy when they quarrel." Evie's eyes showed contempt and disdain: "The Kingdom of Ulster claims Those lands originally belonged to them, so naturally they would not give up any of them; while the Connacht people, who had barely contributed throughout, said that they were able to drive us away, thanks to their army, and of course they would take half of the land they took back. "

Todd waved his hand helplessly: "Let them continue to argue, it won't do us any harm if this continues...By the way, how is Cu Chulainn doing now?"

"He has been said to have been seen returning to the Ulster capital, but after that there is no record of him appearing in public."

"Get as much information about him as possible, I always feel that he won't just keep silent like this..."

"Speaking of Cu Chulainn, I have something to ask you." Evie stared into Todd's eyes: "How long are you going to let that crow live?"

"crow?"

After thinking for a moment, Todd instantly understood who Evie was referring to: "What? What did Meredith do?"

"I don't like having people on top of me!"

Todd was taken aback, and blurted out: "Which aspect are you referring to?"

"Whether it's the location or the posture!" Evie showed rare shame and anger: "Whenever I lie on the bed and look up above my head, I always think that woman is there!"

Todd was a little helpless: "It's good intentions for Meredith to stay here, besides, she didn't say or do anything excessive."

"No excessive words or deeds?" Evie pursed her lips and said, "I saw her outside the door of the small building this morning. Guess what she said to me?"

"say what?"

"She told me that she had heard of the powerful fighting power of the Valkyrie, but what surprised her was that my performance on the bed did not quite match the name."

Evie's words baffled Todd: "What does she mean by that?"

Evie firmly grasped the handle of the sword hilt, speaking in an angry and urgent tone: "In the past, when I was with you, we could linger from the middle of the moon to the first sunrise of the sun. But since you turned into After the dragon body, I was always unable to continue within half an hour... So, this is not my problem at all! It must be that your body has changed!"

Todd put his hands on his forehead and laughed dumbly: "Evie, you should know that this is not a reason to blame Meredith, besides, this woman has helped me several times, although there are more or less inappropriate words , but there was no offense in the behavior, maybe her intention..."

"I know, Todd, I know my accusations seem absurd. But, aside from that, I really can't trust this woman in the raven's feathers. My gut tells me she's not what she seems. It's that simple... I've always wanted to ask, do you know her past? Do you know her true identity? Do you know the purpose behind her doing these things?"

Evie looked vigilant and continued: "When I was hunting, I encountered a similar situation. Those old, intelligent and ferocious beasts would even pretend to be domestic animals that had been raised by humans, in order to impress the hunters." Take it lightly."

Todd thought for a moment, then nodded lightly: "Meredith is indeed like a mystery to me. She never mentioned her past, and never showed any importance or hostility towards anything. In the words she talked with me, the only dialogue that showed strong emotions was just to persuade me to retain my human identity and not to be confused by power..."

Evie said decisively: "I'm sure, there must be something behind this woman, she must have some dark secrets..."

Todd looked at the several shamans waiting downstairs, and said to the Valkyrie beside him: "No matter what the purpose of Meredith is, the gun of death she brought this time can be said to help Please do me a great favor. Don’t draw any conclusions until there is no definite evidence, I will talk to her at the appropriate time and place..."

Walking down the tower, Todd came to the shamans and asked, "How are things going?"

Minnie, who stood at the head of the shaman team, replied respectfully: "Son of the gods, according to your oracle, we have completed the first phase of the construction of the pilgrimage site, but the greening and roads are only basically completed due to the haste. According to your instructions, the ashes of the war dead brought back from the front have all been placed in the temporary wooden sheds on the square of the pilgrimage place."

Todd nodded: "Very well, let's start preparing for the induction ceremony of the heroic spirits."

Minnie led all the shamans, bowed to Todd, and then walked towards the entrance of the temple.

Seeing their leaving figures, Todd sighed inaudibly: "Maybe these are nothing, but at least I can do something to comfort the souls of believers."
