Chapter 372: The life of the Red King fell into a great failure (5000)

Rand and the Red King Karin fought off the messenger of the Lord of Waves.

The Lord of Waves is the god worshipped by the Naga, but something seemed to have happened. After Rand obtained the altar of the Lord of Waves, he wanted to sacrifice himself but failed.

It is completely impossible to obtain the blessing through the sacrifice process, but the Naga tribe can summon sea giants through sacrifice, which makes Rand a little difficult to understand.

In the field, most of the people from the Kingdom of Bolen were running for their lives, not knowing what was going on.

Rand's soldiers had retreated very far and could not see clearly. They only knew that Lord Rand had repelled the powerful monster.

In the Earldom of the Moon Phase, only Lord Rand has such divine power.

Count Lander defeated the Iron Giant twice, who was as tall as a mountain, and made the Iron Giant's body into plate armor.

Earl Rand personally defeated a giant snake that meandered like a river. Now the bones of the giant snake are still coiled above the lord's hall. It is said that Lord Rand can still drive the skeleton of the giant snake.

And now, it is only natural for Earl Land to repel this sea monster.

The soldiers were excited, but not too surprised.

The person who saw it most clearly at the scene should be the leader of the Naga tribe.

The leader of the Naga tribe was called over by Rand for questioning, and then escaped with Rand's permission.

But she didn't get far.

She heard the roar and scream of the nine-headed sea serpent, and she couldn't help but look back.

Then she saw a scene that she would never forget.

The nine-headed sea serpent's huge neck, covered with bite marks, fell to the ground along with its head.

The nine-headed sea serpent continued to roar and move forward, and then another head was taken away by the red spear fired by the female human beside Rand.

Then, there is the back of the nine-headed sea serpent Hyde.

The messenger of the Lord of Waves, the Lord of the Deep Sea Palace, was so frightened that he left.

The female leader of the Naga tribe couldn't control her body and wanted to kneel down, as if she was kneeling before a god.

Now the leader of the Naga tribe feels very lucky, and feels that the Naga tribe is very lucky.

At the beginning, Earl Lander did not kill them all himself, but gave them the opportunity to work in exchange for shelter and food.

This is a gift! …

At the same time, in the noble banquet hall of the Kingdom of Bolun, toasts were made.

The intelligence department had already received news that most of the troops provided to Rand by the Frost Moon Kingdom were conscripts.

"Hahahaha." A noble from the Kingdom of Borun stood next to the Minister of Military Affairs and clinked glasses with him. "It seems that Earl Rand is not that popular in the Kingdom of Frost Moon."

All the nobles present knew what garbage the conscripts were.

Ten levies surrounding a knight with dung forks could potentially kill him.

But if a dozen knights formed a column and charged, then the three hundred conscripts would also flee in panic.

The nobles of the Kingdom of Bolen acknowledged that Rand was a noble who was good at military affairs.

And there might be some evil magic.

But do you want to use conscripted soldiers to compete with the most loyal and powerful knights of the Kingdom of Borun, or to resist the invincible fleet of the Kingdom of Borun?

Hahahaha, this is impossible!

At the scene, the king of the Kingdom of Bolun was drinking non-stop.

Now, he is finally going to redeem himself and reconquer the lost lands of the Kingdom of Bollen.

Now the King of the Kingdom of Bollen hopes that Earl Rand will escape more slowly. He can't wait to capture Rand and humiliate him.

However, if Earl Lander is willing to repent deeply and be loyal to him, that is not unacceptable.

After all, military talents like Earl Lander are rare.

In addition, the reason why Earl Rand was defeated by his army this time was only because the military support provided by the Frostmoon Kingdom to Rand was mostly conscripted soldiers, rather than Rand's own military mistakes.

Not a crime of war.

The only person present was the Minister of Military Affairs of the Kingdom of Bolen, whose smile was not very bright.

Indeed, it must have been a foolish decision for the Frostmoon Kingdom to give Rand a large number of conscripts.

But how good can their Kingdom of Bolun be?

The original strategy was for the knights on land to break through first, and then seize the opportunity to burn, kill, and loot, thus beating Earl Lander into a state of exhaustion.

Then let the fleet at sea land at Crescent Harbor and catch Rand off guard.

With the troops from both sides surrounding him, Earl Rand was trapped in a jar!

However, due to the existence of super strong people around Rand, the Knights had to allocate some strong people to stop him, so the action was slow.

Although it is not too slow, it is slow after all.

According to the calculations of the Minister of Military Affairs of the Kingdom of Bolen, in theory, it could still be faster than the speed at which the armies of most nobles could be assembled. However, this might not be the case when facing the powerful Earl Land.

However, the Minister of War still has some confidence in the Knights Templar.

They are all carefully selected experts, so they should be able to break through head-on.

As for the sea offensive.

The fleet assembled more slowly, but the fleet of the Kingdom of Bolen had always been very strong, and the Minister of War was still very confident.

"Alas~" The Minister of War sighed. He tried his best to do everything, but he was a little slow.

However, the problem of the speed of assembly is not something he can solve alone.

But overall, the Minister of War still believed that he could win.

After all, although the troops dispatched by the Kingdom of Borun this time were not particularly large in order to prevent it from becoming a national war, they were all elite! On the other side, they were all conscripted soldiers! Seeing the Minister of Military Affairs sigh, the King of the Kingdom of Borun immediately noticed it.

The King of the Kingdom of Bolen stroked his long beard with his rough big hands and walked in front of the Minister of Military Affairs.

"Why sigh? Aren't we sure to win?" The King of the Kingdom of Bolen raised his eyebrows and raised his glass to the Minister of Military Affairs.

The Minister of War took a glass of wine from the waiter and said, "Too slow."

The King of the Kingdom of Bolen frowned. He admitted that the Minister of Military Affairs was indeed a talented military officer.

Whenever the king encountered a military problem, he would consult the Minister of War.

The advice of the Minister of War always brings victory to the Kingdom of Bolen.

But there was one thing that the King of the Kingdom of Bolen did not like very much. The Minister of Military Affairs was not very willing to flatter him. He always had a deadpan face and looked worried.

Now it is a celebration banquet held in advance to celebrate the victory.

Look at the interlaced wine glasses, listen to the melodious music, everyone is full of confidence, only the Minister of War is sighing there, what a disappointment!

What makes the King of the Kingdom of Bolen most disgusted is that the Minister of Military Affairs’ worries have a certain chance of coming true.

But the king of the Kingdom of Bolun did not want to admit it.

After the King of the Kingdom of Bolen and the Minister of War clinked their glasses, they no longer paid any attention to the Minister of War who had spoiled his fun.

And at this moment.

The door to the banquet hall was pushed open.

The sunlight outside shines on the polished stone ground, reflecting irregular light.

It was dazzling in the eyes of the king and his ministers.

Everyone looked out the door.

It must be good news.

This is a knight with golden patterns on his armor.

The armor on his body was gorgeous, and his every move followed strict standards, with a dignified demeanor.

This is the court knight of the Kingdom of Bolen.

"The battle report is here?" The king of the Kingdom of Bolen looked at the court knight.

The court knight nodded, looked at the princes and nobles who were all staring at him, and suddenly felt a little timid.

He didn't dare to tell everyone the battle report he had just received.

Delivering good news is a lucrative job, and those who deliver good news will often be rewarded.

But delivering sad news is a tough job.

The person who summoned the message might even be remembered and anger might be taken out on him.

The court knight took a deep breath and said stumblingly, "We lost the battle."

"What?" The faces of the nobles present all changed.

Many of their relatives and friends had personally participated in the war. Defeat would mean not only the death of their relatives and friends, but also a death without dignity and honor.

"Be more specific!" The king dropped the wine glass in his hand, his eyes gleaming with ferocity.

How could it be possible that we were defeated?

How is this possible?

The court knight who sent the message took another deep breath.

Then he began to explain the battle report: "The knights on land were completely wiped out, no knights survived, and there is no news from the battle front on the seashore."

All the nobles present were struck by lightning.

"You said the entire army was wiped out?" The Minister of Military Affairs came over and said in disbelief.

He personally selected the members of the Knights Templar, all of whom were knights and nobles who valued honor and dignity.

How could such a knight group be completely wiped out?

Are they going to attack the city?

Otherwise, how could the entire army be wiped out?

These are knights, not infantry.

Want to surround and annihilate them, to surround a knight group of nearly a thousand people in the wilderness while they are galloping? Is this something that humans can do?

This shocked the Minister of War as much as he had heard before that Rand had used the wind to break through more than a dozen castles and directly captured a large tract of land as Rand's earldom.

Then a while passed.

Another court knight appeared at the banquet venue of the "Celebration Banquet".

The court knight looked at the nervous princes and nobles, as well as his colleagues beside him.

He wiped the non-existent sweat off his face and whispered, "The fleet, the fleet was also defeated, and only a few people escaped back."

Due to Hyde's appearance, some soldiers of the Kingdom of Bolen were rushed to an area relatively far away from Crescent Moon Port.

Therefore, some of the naval soldiers and nobles of the Kingdom of Borun escaped.

However, most of them became Rand's labor force or died in the ocean.

The expressions of everyone at the "celebration banquet" changed.

Either in disbelief or looking dejected.

Some people even started crying.

Some even resented the king who pushed for the war and the minister of war who came up with the strategy.

Despair filled the hearts of these nobles.

"No, it's impossible!" The king of the Kingdom of Bolen covered his chest and gasped violently.

By the time the Minister of Military Affairs of the Kingdom of Bolen looked over, the king had already fainted.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Damn it, herbalists, alchemists, priests!" the Minister of War roared loudly.

The king of the Kingdom of Bollen is not a particularly wise monarch, but he has a decent prestige and is willing to consider the overall situation.

The Minister of War did not like the king's ostentatious character, but the king absolutely could not fall down now.

This time, in order to avoid the war from expanding into a national war, not a large number of troops were dispatched.

Even if the entire army was wiped out, it would only be a temporary pain for the Kingdom of Borun.

The losses may indeed be considerable, but if we can stabilize the situation now, it will definitely not be a serious blow.

The premise is that the king cannot die.

Now that the second prince of the Kingdom of Borun has died in battle, the eldest prince is far from mature enough to rule the entire kingdom.

In the past, the eldest prince's abilities in all aspects had always been suppressed by the second prince, and he had become somewhat self-destructive, so that now his own prestige is not enough to convince the nobles in the country.

The domestic politics of the Kingdom of Borun is quite complicated. Otherwise, when the second prince Alex died in battle, the Kingdom of Borun would have immediately tried to take revenge instead of considering domestic and foreign political relations and waiting until now.

The nobles at the "Celebration Banquet" venue immediately began to surround the King of the Kingdom of Borun.

…

At this time, Rand was writing a victory report to the nobles in the country, the first of which was his staunch ally, the Earl of the Stag, and the thirteenth son of the Black and Brown Marquisate.

The thirteenth son of the Marquis of Black and Brown was the boy who asked him about the whereabouts of the Marquis of Black and Brown. Rand felt that he could start learning some political-related matters.

Then there is the Grand Duke of Thorn. This time, the domestic nobles were very perfunctory in their support for him, but the Grand Duke of Thorn was an exception. The troops provided by the Grand Duke of Thorn to Rand were all elite knights, and the infantry were also the family's high-quality infantry, equipped with armor and iron weapons.

Rand naturally kept this in mind and would never forget it.

Therefore, the information given to the above three people contains some insider details.

As for the rest, it was relatively brief. Rand only provided the most basic battle reports to other nobles in the country.

In short, Rand treated them differently.

After writing the victory report, Rand arranged the details of cleaning the battlefield, then got up and took the inspector and part-time bodyguard to check on Ms. Karin.

Ever since Ms. Karin got out of the carriage, she looked a little gloomy, as if her life had lost its meaning.

This made Rand very worried.

Rand brought Elsa to the door of Karin's room.

"Knock, knock, knock." Rand knocked on the door.

There was no sound.

Rand knocked again.

At this time, Karin's low voice came from the room: "Don't knock, there's no one."

"I'm worried about your health," Rand said. "Open the door."

"I'm fine, no need." Karin refused.

"You don't look very good," Rand said.

There was the rustling sound of someone putting on clothes in the room, and then Karin's door opened with heavy footsteps.

Rand entered Karin's room.

This is a temporary house, clean and tidy, but it also lacks the atmosphere of life.

Rand looked at Karin's golden and smooth hair, her pale face, and the look that seemed to want to escape from reality.

Apparently hiding in the carriage and committing suicide did not make Karin feel any less ashamed.

All we can say is that it only avoids the most direct prying eyes.

Her life as a saint is completely ruined!

Rand comforted him, "It's okay. Everyone has experienced this kind of thing. Relax, and it won't spread."

Karin still didn't react.

Rand sighed. Perhaps what happened before was too much of a blow to Karin.

But Karin sacrificed herself to save Crescent Harbor, and Rand had great respect for her.

In Rand's opinion, Karin is absolutely a qualified saint.

Possess strong willpower, excellent personality and firm bottom line.

Unfortunately, although the result was good for Crescent Moon Harbor, Karin still suffered too much mental trauma and is now somewhat autistic.

Moreover, Rand was not sure whether the use of power in the previous way would cause damage to Karin's body.

Rand felt obligated to examine Karin and try to come up with a treatment plan.

As for now.

Now Karin obviously hadn't had a proper breakfast and it was almost lunch time.

Rand signaled to Elsa to return the Flame of Purification to Karin.

This artifact pistol was thrown out before, pierced through the body of the nine-headed sea serpent, and fell into the sea. Rand has asked the Naga to help retrieve it.

Then Rand looked at the room, which had a small kitchen.

Rand took over his "sacred artifact" iron pot as the king of gourmet food from Elsa.

Rand looked at Karin and said, "Lend me a light."

The firewood under the stove in the small kitchen was lit.

Elsa helped with the blowing, and then Rand began to show off his cooking skills.

Beat an egg, added some salt, oil, and then some flour.

Then add some dried bacon.

The air-dried cured meat and egg pancake is ready.

Rand used a spatula to scoop up the omelet and then cut it into three sections.

Each person got one.

Then it was Rand's turn to encourage Elsa, the champion of the second Den Cooking Competition, to take action.

Elsa made a very simple grilled fish dish, but it had a very simple and natural feel and was very fragrant.

After taking the food out of the pot and placing it on the plate, Rand invited Karin to come over for dinner, like the owner of the house rather than a guest.

Karin felt it was embarrassing for her to just lean over and eat like that. She was obviously a little discouraged because of her previous embarrassing incident, but the food smelled so good.

After all, she hasn't eaten since last night.

She had consumed quite a lot of energy, so naturally she was a little hungry now.

In front of her were the two chef kings of the den, the food king Rand, and the champion Elsa. Although the ingredients were simple, the dishes they made were still very delicious.

Karin walked to the dining table in silence, picked up a fork, and took a piece of the omelet that was allocated to her.

The taste was just as good as expected.

Karin knew that Rand could cook. She heard that many of the drinks in the den tavern and the fried chicken sold in the restaurant area were developed by Rand.

But Karin had never tasted Rand's own cooking.

As for Elsa, when Karin and Elsa first met, Elsa was stealing things to practice her cooking skills.

Karin had tasted Elsa's dishes several times, and they were always delicious.

In this way, Rand, Karin, who can decide the life and death of countless people, and the legendary killer Elsa, had dinner in a very simple house.

Karin felt that her heart had indeed been healed to some extent, but she still didn't know how she should go out and face the rest of her life.

Although Rand was probably the only one who actually saw her committing suicide, several high-ranking officials in the hideout who were suspected to be Rand's lovers should have more or less known what she did in the carriage.

She especially didn't want to face Lysa.

She felt that her image had been destroyed.
