Chapter 18 Blowing Wind and Flying Snow
A series of earnest eyes looked at him.
Shizuru thought about last night's tragedy again, the children's cries for help, the women's screams, and the pirates' shouts.
At this moment, he woke up a little.
All the while, he seemed too indecisive.
During his lifetime, his father taught him to love his people and treat others with courtesy.
But he forgot that his father once said that it is impossible to be the king of a country without iron-blooded means.
yes!
Because of this, Shizukuro never thought of taking charge of the army, and the military power was basically controlled by Minister Zuo.
Maybe, everything that happened today was more or less related to him being an unqualified king.
However, now that he has recognized himself, Shizukuro has no intention of escaping.
At this moment, he finally had a hint of imperial domineering in his body.
"Keen, you first lead the troops to the north gate to support Iv."
"Bangka, protect Fina."
"I... will organize the people to start a counterattack!"
The country is in crisis and Rehaku is powerful, so Shizuku can only rely on the power of the people.
And his appearance may change the situation.
Facing this emperor who suddenly became somewhat unfamiliar, a flash of excitement flashed across Cohen's eyes.
Tingsong obeyed unconditionally.
Fina opened her mouth, seeming to be dissatisfied with her father's arrangements for her, but in the end she just gave a small 'en'.
…
After wandering around the complex terrain of the palace for a long time, Luo Di and Aiko finally came to a simply decorated room.
"According to what Princess Fina said, the mechanism seems to be on the back of a painting!"
There were more than a dozen paintings hanging on the wall. When Luo Di opened the fifth one, he felt a slight bulge.
He pressed lightly, and there was a 'click' sound...
Aiko's exclamation came from behind.
"Brother Luo Di, look here!"
Luo Di turned around and saw a secret passage in the center of the house.
"Then it should be inside!"
The corners of his mouth raised slightly. After all, the treasure house was right in front of him. Could he be in a bad mood?
Then, the two walked in one after the other.
Stretching forward is a passage more than ten meters long, but there are luminous pearls on the surrounding walls, so the passage will not appear dim.
After turning a corner, Luo Di finally saw a dark door.
Luo Di inserted the key, and with a click, the lock opened.
The door was so thick that he didn't push it open at first. It wasn't until he used 50% of his strength that he slowly pushed the door open.
What comes into view is a yew counter with two tachi placed on top.
One scabbard is white, the other is greener.
"Is this the blowing wind and flying snow?"
Pulling out one of them, the hand was heavy, with a hint of coolness. The blade was all white, and the blade was in the shape of a small T-shape.
The other one is lighter in hand, giving people a sharp feeling, and the blade is also a small T-shaped blade.
Luo Di nodded with satisfaction and threw it to Aiko.
"Kole, here you go!"
Both knives were very good, but Luo Di had no interest in them.
In comparison, Death's Scythe is the most suitable for him.
The Death Scythe has the ability to grow. The more people it kills, the more amazing the evil energy on it will be, and its power will become stronger and stronger.
What's more, it can also increase the user's strength.
Aiko took the two knives and was a little happy. After all, this was the first gift Luo Di gave her.
but……
"Brother Luo Di, there are two of them. Don't you want one?"
Luo Di shook his head.
"You know, I have better weapons!"
Aiko nodded and hung two knives on his waist.
Although she is a one-sword type, she can use two swords.
Finally, Luo Di searched the treasure house and packed a bag of gold before preparing to leave.
Now that they're all here, he won't just take two knives.
"Okay, it's time to go check out the battle and harvest some more!"
"It would be great if there are still people with fruit abilities!"
…
Time flies.
The sun gradually rose, but the dazzling sunlight could not dispel the haze in Duzi Saint Valan.
Lehaku led his troops to the north gate.
The crusade led by Iv is also ready.
Without any shouting, the battle between the two sides was about to break out.
"shot!"
After Iv gave an order, the crusade lurking in the dark opened fire instantly.
"fire!"
And Rehaku came straight to the point without any moral ethics.
The cannon is used as a shotgun, and the shot is suppressed by fire.
Bang bang bang——
Under the bombardment of more than a dozen cannons, there were bursts of painful wails from the expeditionary army.
Thirty or forty crusaders were hit by artillery shells, and the violent explosions left them covered with wounds, and several even died on the spot.
War is so cruel.
And in the next few minutes, hundreds more people died.
Most of them were on the side of the conquering army.
"How dare you, the untouchables, resist me?"
Rehaku laughed, but it was covered up by the huge sound of gunfire.
Iv looked at the one-sided situation on the field, and he, who had always been calm, became a little desperate.
The gap is really too big.
What made him even more sad and angry was the tragic deaths of those crusaders.
Some of them were people he knew well.
"Okay, Alf, trust His Majesty the King!"
Alf turned around.
The person who spoke was none other than his old partner, Chad.
"Well, hold on!"
Aif shook his head and forced himself to cheer up. He raised the gun in his hand and shot a lead bullet, which instantly pierced a soldier's throat.

"The shooting skills are still as good as before!"
Chad raised his gun and shot a soldier with one shot.
The two encouraged each other, persisted and waited.
The battle at the north gate became more and more intense.
The number of troops in the expeditionary army was almost halved.
At this moment, the ground suddenly began to shake.
It was footsteps!
Many footsteps!
Fok turned his head first, and a stream of sand and dust came into his eyes.
People, many people!
They attacked from the rear of the army, countless.
However, they basically had no equipment.
Fok saw that the leading few people were holding only simple wooden sticks in their hands.
"Damn untouchables, you all want to die, right? Go ahead and kill them!"
Rehaku also noticed the movement behind.
Turning around, he saw a group of civilians who united as if to resist him.
He was immediately enraged.
The soldiers in the rear heard the instructions, some opened fire, and the other drew their swords to meet them.
The scene became more and more chaotic for a while.
"Damn it, where are Fina and Shizuku?"
Looking back at the north gate, Rehaku became more and more annoyed, because he had not seen the escaped Princess Fina and King Shizuku until now.
He could not be at ease as a king without killing them completely.
Let's talk about the other side.
With Shizuku's appearance, the formation of the expeditionary army was also smooth.
"Cohen should have fought with Rehaku, it's time for me to set off!"
During this period, he summoned nearly 10,000 people, and it was time to set off.
There should be reinforcements later, and Princess Fina is also helping to form the expeditionary army.
"Let's go!"
"Yes!"
At the command, tens of thousands of people shouted in unison, and their voices revealed determination.
