Chapter 467: No Way Out
"Count Alice! Long time no see!"
After meeting Alice, the second Prince Chat temporarily ignored the little Viscount Gervis.
At this moment, he felt indescribably proud, thinking back to how he had sacrificed his pride to pursue Alice for two whole years, but in the end, he couldn't even touch her hand, making him a laughing stock in the royal capital and even the entire Principality of Zeon.
But today he finally got to hold his head high. Alice had become the fish on the chopping board, and he could eat her to his heart's content.
"I don't want to see you!"
Alice had a cold face and didn't give any face to the second prince Chat.
Alice already hated the Second Prince, and now that he had joined forces with the church, she hated him even more.
"Haha! Alice, you still think you are the earl's daughter? In my eyes, you are just an ungrateful bitch now!"
The smile on Prince Chat's face immediately disappeared, and a gloomy look appeared on his face.
Since this woman is so ungrateful, Second Prince Chat will not use a gentle tactic, but will use force directly. He wants to make this woman beg for mercy and wail under him!
"Who is the bitch scolding?"
Seeing Alice being humiliated, Gervis couldn't sit still, and immediately stood up and asked Chat.
"The bitch is scolding Ellie..."
Hearing the question raised by Gervis, the second prince Chat answered it without thinking, but when he was halfway through, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, and immediately stopped talking, then looked at Gervis with an angry face.
"Little reptile, you are looking for death!"
"Haha! Bitch, come over here and bite me if you have the guts!"
In his previous life, a trap that even elementary school students would not fall for caused Chat to embarrass himself in front of two nobles of the duchy, which made Gervis find it quite interesting.
He also knew the situation today, which was already a desperate situation.
Gervis would never choose to join the church and the second prince, because if he fell into the hands of the church, they would definitely try every means to dig out the secrets about him.
In addition, there is the grudge between Alice and the second prince. If she really surrenders, Alice will definitely not be better off.
In this case, Gervis had no choice but to let go of all his concerns.
If he were to live his life again, he would take control of his own destiny and never be manipulated by anyone else.
"Haha, little reptile, you are Alice's husband, right? Very good! I won't let you die so easily!"
Second Prince Chat suddenly thought of Gervis's identity. His original anger gradually disappeared. He said something to Gervis with disdain, and then turned his attention to other nobles.
Chat was not an idiot. He knew that there were plenty of opportunities to deal with Gervis and Alice. What he needed to do now was to disintegrate the Principality of Zeon's team.
"I'll give you one last minute. If you still haven't made a choice, then you'll be buried with my father!"
Chat issued a final ultimatum to everyone!
When the nobles of the Principality of Zeon heard Chat's final ultimatum, many of them became restless.
Soon, two counts came out from the Principality of Jean's team again.
Since then, half of the original eight earls of the Principality of Zeon have been gone, and many of their vassals have also left the army of the Principality of Zeon and followed their lords to join the church.
Only a very small number of vassal nobles took the God of Glory as their own belief and were not prepared to join the church.
Soon, Chat's team of only a thousand people swelled to more than four thousand people.
Tap tap!
As the saying goes, misfortunes never come alone. At this moment, the sound of horse hooves was heard again from behind Gervis and others. They were the rangers who were sent out to investigate the situation.
The ranger quickly came to King Lawrence and reported to him: "Your Majesty, the army of the Principality of Xis and the Holy Knights of the Church are less than ten miles away from us!"
This news instantly changed the faces of all the nobles present, and everyone began to get impatient. Although they did not choose to surrender to the church and Chat, it did not mean that they were not afraid of death.
Everyone looked at King Lawrence, waiting for his orders. If they didn't leave now, it would be too late.
…
"Hayden, you will take these vassals of mine to the city of Borel you mentioned. I will be responsible for covering your retreat!"
King Lawrence knew that he could not delay any longer, and immediately spoke to Hayden, who had remained silent.
At this time, not counting the earls and other people who had just defected, there were eight golden knights of the church and five magicians beside Chat. If there was no one to cover their retreat, they would not be able to gain distance even if they evacuated.
"Your Majesty, you are seriously injured! Why don't you go first and I will be in charge of the rearguard!"
The Lord of the North stood up. If Lawrence wanted to attack again, he could only consume his vitality to gain temporary combat power. However, if he really did so, Lawrence would surely die.
After so many years of being king and subject, the Lord of the North certainly does not want to see such a thing happen.
“No need! Gust, you have fought for me for so many years, but now you are facing a desperate situation because of my second son. Let me be the last one to leave!”
Lawrence immediately shook his head and rejected the Lord of the North's proposal with an unquestionable attitude.
Lawrence had said so much, and although the Lord of the North wanted to say something several times, he could only sigh deeply in the end.
Afterwards, several earls began to send people to convey orders to the rear troops.
The first groups that needed to be evacuated were the elite soldiers and the teams of minor vassals.
The earls would need to continue blocking the way here for a few minutes. Only after the soldiers had run a sufficient distance would it be the turn of the earls to evacuate.
And when everyone has evacuated, only King Lawrence will be responsible for stopping several golden knights and magicians of the church.
Of course, even if King Lawrence sacrificed his vitality to cover the retreat, he could only hold out for a short while at most.
…
"Do you still want to leave now?"
The actions of the two duchies naturally could not be concealed from Chat and others. Seeing that the army behind Gervis and others began to withdraw quickly to the west, Chat sneered and looked at Lawrence and a group of earls with a playful look in his eyes.
"Do you really think that we have been out of the city for so long just to persuade you to surrender? Haha! I just want to see your desperate expressions with my own eyes!"
"Kill! Kill all those despicable humans!"
"Kill! Kill all those filthy humans!"
When the Second Prince Chater finished speaking, five or six thousand orcs appeared in the west of the City of Glory!
This group of five or six thousand orcs, constantly lured by hundreds of cavalrymen, was rushing towards the troops of the two duchies.
In an instant, the entire retreating team became chaotic, and the teams that had originally headed west retreated one after another.
If there were a human army of five or six thousand ahead, they would have broken out to the west without hesitation, but there were orcs there, and even the most elite soldiers would have been terrified at the sight of such a large number of orcs.
"I just gave you a chance, but you didn't know how to cherish it. Then you all should die!"
The second prince of Chat had a crazy look on his face, and showed a cruel expression to Gervis and others.
…
Now that the last way of survival was cut off, everyone calmed down instead.
"Since we can't escape, let's fight them! We must make them die with us!"
"Okay! Then let them be buried with me! Your Majesty, I will kill the second prince later! Please don't blame me!"
"Of course I will personally take care of this unfilial second son! Gust, go and kill the magician who just plotted against us!"
"Haha! Okay, then I'll go kill the magician!"
Amidst heroic laughter, everyone drew their swords, ready for the final fight!
Sorry! I was stuck, wrote and deleted, and finally posted it now!
