Chapter 360 Innocence Being Protected
Chapter 360 Innocence Being Protected
"I understand what you mean."
Marquez nodded.
He had seen the determination of the old Duke.
No matter what, the Buwen Territory cannot be given away. This is not only the hard work of the old Duke, but also the hard work of the ancestors of the entire Buwen family.
But the Champion Knight-level Winter King is still an insurmountable difficulty.
There is no champion knight in the entire Mayton Kingdom.
The strongest King Meton has died of illness.
Now who can stop Howard who is fighting against others?
"Sir, we have to consider the threat of King Winter, even if he did not bring his army, but..."
"I understand everything you said." The Duke of Bristol took a deep breath: "Leave the Winter King to me and Duke Corvert. Your task is to kill Howard as much as possible. As long as he dies, then Bu Only warm collars have the possibility to survive."
"But..." Marquez wanted to ask the old Duke how to deal with the Winter King, but looking at those firm eyes, he was unable to ask in the end.
The old Duke is just a sky knight.
Even if Duke Corvette is included, there are only two sky knights.
This is simply not enough to warm up the Winter King.
"Sir, when will we send out troops?" Marquez asked.
He decided not to worry about so many problems anymore. The Duke treated him like a son, and even recruited him as his son-in-law and entrusted him with his favorite little daughter.
The only thing he has to do now is to complete all the tasks assigned by the Duke.
"The sooner the better." The Duke of Bristol said: "If the troops of Winter City gather in King Mayton City, then we will have no chance of winning."
"Then I'll do it now." Marquez clenched a fist with one hand and bowed: "Don't worry, I have summoned the main force of Buwen Territory to the vicinity half a month ago. Before twelve noon, I'll show you the troops in good order gathered at the foot of Fort Bowen."
Marquez left.
The Duke of Bristol turned around and continued to stare at the bustling city on the mountain. He had seen the scenery here countless times, and he was familiar with the characteristics of each city. The gray city wall was the Turning Wood Town, and the square one was the Grizzly Bear. The city, and the tree-centered city with lots of green plants...
These are gifts given to him by his ancestors.
It is something that the Bouwin family will protect for generations to come.
"No matter how docile a dog is, it will still bite..."
murmured the Duke of Bristol.
Then, he turned back to the room and came to his desk.
The butler handed over paper and pen according to his instructions.
After pondering for a while, he began to write a letter.
The signatures were signed by Duke Corvette, who was on the same front with him, and two other dukes who wanted to sit back and watch the fight. There was also a letter sent to a general who was about to return from the Emerald Fortress.
Now he must unite all the forces he can.
Bouvenir is the closest to King Mayton City.
If he doesn't strike first, he will have to bear the brunt.
…
…
Marquez originally wanted to leave the castle directly.
But when passing by the castle garden, I met Shanni. The girl was wearing an elegant beige dress, and her long golden hair was combed into a twist on her head. Facing the morning sun, she was as beautiful as a girl dancing among the flowers. Dancing elves.
"Hey, Marquez!"
The girl had spotted her before the knight could speak first, waving her arms at him with a cheerful smile on her face.
"When did you come back? You didn't come to see me either? Why, are you planning to leave again?"
The girl who caught the knight's hand was very ruthless. She grabbed his arm and started interrogating him without giving Marquez a chance to speak.
"Sanny...you, don't you know yet?" Marquez asked tentatively, holding the girl hanging on her arm like a koala.
"What do you know?" Shanni looked up at her sweetheart.
"Do you know you didn't come to me when you returned to the castle? I understand, Marquez, you must have another woman outside, you heartless man!"
The girl turned around, broke away from the knight's arms, and pouted her pink mouth.
This combination of punches stunned Marquez. He quickly got off his horse and took the girl into his arms, explaining in a gentle voice:
"How is that possible? You know it, Shani, you are the only one in my heart... It's just that I'm busy with my affairs, and you will know it soon... because the war is coming!"
"War?" The girl turned her head and looked at the knight, her bright eyes full of innocence and curiosity. She asked: "What kind of war? Who would launch a war against the Bouwin family? Or my father..."
"No..." Marcus sighed.
The old Duke was wise and mighty, but he was fiercely protective of his two children. They were like flowers in a greenhouse, having never experienced any wind or rain.
This is especially obvious with the playboy young master.
Although Brian is already a half-step earth knight, his combat experience is almost as immature as that of a baby. Any great knight who has experienced life and death battles can fool this young master into applause.
"This war should be initiated by the old Duke. Our enemy is the current King of Merton, Howard Kelty, the Fourth of Merton. It's too late. Now I have to gather the army." Marquez told The girl explained.
He looked at Shanni's pretty face and couldn't help but reach out and rub it gently. Looking into her innocent and pure eyes, he suddenly understood the meaning of the old Duke's protection of Shanni and Brian.
For generations, the Buwen family has endured hellish trials in the blood and fire of war.
Even the old Duke's father often had conflicts with the surrounding lords.
Even the Duke himself has participated in several wars in the Emerald Fortress. They have experienced too much suffering. The old Duke does not want to pass on these sufferings to his children. This is one of the reasons why he must protect the Bulwen Territory. It has nothing to do with it. It's not about power, it's just about responsibility and the protection of their children.
"Is my father in danger? Are you in danger?" Shanni nervously hugged Marquez's cold arm armor.
Although she has never experienced a war, she has read many books and knows that wars kill people.
"There is no danger. Howard is just a clown. The army he has is less than half of the army you have. Moreover, those troops who stay in the capital have never seen blood. How can they be the opponent of our elite troops?"
Marquez touched Sunny's little head, with a relaxed smile on his face.
Since the Duke wanted to hide it from Sanny, then he would also help the Duke hide it.
No matter how it ends.
He will definitely try his best to help Shani open a future.
He, the old Duke and the soldiers under his command were the first to face all the cruelty and danger.
Shanni was relieved to hear that there was no danger. She believed every word of her father and lover unconditionally.
"Teach that Howard a lesson for me. Last year, he proposed marriage to his father and wanted me to marry him. When my father didn't agree, he became angry and threatened him, saying that sooner or later, he would give us a good look at the Bowen family!"
"Do not worry."
A cold glint flashed in Marquez's gray eyes: "I will let him know how unstoppable the heavy cavalry charge of the Buwen family is, and let him understand that the family of the late king Yize is not a rebel king who ascended to the throne by killing his brothers. It can be shaken easily."
"Yeah~ I believe you." Sunny smiled like a flower, and she hugged her knight again.
"When you and your father return in triumph, I will ask my father to marry me to you."
The girl made the most beautiful promise.
