Chapter 258: World Tree (Part 3)



No wonder you didn't say a word about my assassination.

Xu Xianxian instantly understood what was going on, that is, the Seventh Princess was giving her a laissez-faire attitude, so no matter what she did under the other party's banner, this guy would be completely unaware of it.

Or...it doesn't matter?

Since the Seventh Princess didn't know about it, Xu Xianxian was too lazy to say it out loud.

"As expected of Her Royal Highness the Seventh Princess, such magnanimity is truly unmatched by those nobles."

The seventh princess put on a sweet smile on the surface and quickly flattered the other party, but in her heart she was plotting all kinds of conspiracies and tricks.

"It seems I need to think carefully about how to maximize this benefit by taking advantage of the power of others."

Although Ophelia is Bai Zhen'er's previous life, she has no psychological burden in using her. After all, in this era, living a better life is the primary goal.

Ophelia didn't know the knight's true thoughts. She just blinked and stood up: "Since you are ready, let's set off now."

"The World Tree is located in the southernmost part of the empire. Even with an airship, it would take two days to reach it from the imperial capital."

Fairies have faster means of transportation, such as directly opening a portal and transferring instantly.

But Ophelia is the deputy commander of the army this time, she can't go ahead alone, and if tens of thousands of fully armed fairy soldiers want to move through the portal... it requires multiple legendary creatures to cast spells together for a long time.

This is obviously a waste of resources. Unless encountering a powerful enemy of the same level, the empire will not use this authority.

"As you wish, my princess."

Xu Xianxian stood up from the sofa, slightly bent her petite body, and spoke with a solemn expression.

Half an hour later, 30,000 fairy soldiers gathered outside the imperial capital. Ophelia performed a prayer ceremony in front of the magic circle according to imperial etiquette, communicating with the magic network and the Fairy Mother as usual, hoping that this expedition would return victorious.

On the docking platform of the metal airship, Xu Xianxian stood next to Ophelia, watching the soldiers below board the airship in a mighty procession, with an expression that revealed some barely perceptible emotion.

"These soldiers are the elite of the empire. The weakest are at the seventh ring level, and there are even generals at the thirteenth ring level..."

She glanced at the middle-aged goblin standing next to the princess. He was wearing light gray armor and had a pair of eyes like a hawk, looking around at everything.

This is the lieutenant general of the Fairy Empire, the hereditary Earl Jevero. Over the past thousand years, he has participated in many cross-border wars and is very experienced, making him a veteran who has experienced many battles.

This time, Jervi was sent to Earth to participate in the war as the deputy of the Seventh Princess.

Jevero naturally noticed Xu Xianxian's secret observation, but a mere underage fairy knight was not worth his attention at all.

If this little goblin wasn't the princess's personal knight, he wouldn't even be qualified to stand next to him.

When fifty large airships took off, Jevero bowed to Ophelia and said, "Princess, please follow me aboard your exclusive warship."

For this interplanetary expedition, the Empire specially equipped Her Royal Highness the Princess with an exclusive warship named Ophelia. It is a shuttle-shaped warship that is one hundred meters long and is light silver in color. It is made of a whole meteorite from the multi-dimensional star realm, rather than a conventional assembly.

This is the top-level battleship of the Fairy Empire. It is extremely rare and is equivalent to a mobile wizard tower. Although its power is not as strong as the wizard tower, it is not far behind.

"OK."

Ophelia nodded and stretched out her white right hand, and Xu Xianxian quickly supported her.

In fact, she should not have been able to get this battleship, but it might be because of her father's love that he gave her such a precious life-saving amulet.

"I understand what my father meant. Even if the expedition fails, this warship can take me back to the empire... But in the empire, there are only princesses who died in battle, not princesses who escaped."

Although based on Ophelia's analysis of the Earth, she did not think that she and the coalition would be defeated, but if such a slim chance of an accident really happened, she would definitely fight to the end.

Pride and prejudice were merely the inherent vices of petty nobility. True royalty always made the most comprehensive plans.

The battleship is equipped with hundreds of soldiers, more than a hundred of whom are crew members responsible for driving the battleship, and the remaining three hundred are responsible for protecting Ophelia's safety.

Xu Xianxian held Ophelia's arm and walked out of the elevator together.

"Your Highness, welcome."

A dozen uniformed officers were waiting outside, with magical swords across their waists, bowing in salute gestures, their expressions extremely solemn and dignified.

Xu Xianxian originally wanted to joke with the princess to ease the atmosphere, but in this situation, it was difficult to say anything.

Because any living thing that stays in such an environment will understand...

The undercurrent of war is brewing.

"Hmm..." Ophelia walked towards the main cabin accompanied by the lieutenant general and the officers. As she walked, she asked the officer next to her, "When exactly will we arrive?"

"47 hours and 23 minutes later, Crystal Time."

The female officer said respectfully.

"I understand. Has the Council of Elders been contacted yet?" Ophelia nodded and continued, "I heard that Archdruid Gal is very dissatisfied with this expedition and has submitted an impeachment petition to the House of Lords."

Although the royal family dominates everything in the Fairy Empire, in reality, many of the decisions made are often impeached and rejected by the Council of Elders and the House of Lords.
