In the past more than half a month, many great events have happened in the land of Britain, which has made many small and large kingdoms and various lords who have been kings and hegemons of the Western Roman Empire since they withdrew their troops feel worried!
First of all, this world seems to be undergoing some very magical and subtle changes. Even the dullest kings or lords can vaguely feel it...Those fantasy species will only become less and less rare. The number of creatures suddenly and gradually increased for some unknown reason? Moreover, they invaded the surrounding areas of their territory from time to time, infringing on their villages and farmers, making them gradually tired of coping. Seeing that the kingdom and territory began to become panic-stricken, they almost began to feel bad that they could no longer resist. Feel.
They can never imagine that there are still so many monsters in this world...
Countless fantasy species, including ogres, harpies, elves, centaurs, dwarves, dryads, cyclops, vampires, even evil undead and demons, and other extremely rare monsters or foreign objects. , were all discovered one after another during this period... There were even horrifying rumors that some small territories were directly invaded and slaughtered by powerful monsters!
If it were the situation in the south of Britain, that would be fine. The frequency of fantasy species appearing here is still relatively low. After all, this is the inherent territory of humans and is relatively fully developed. The territories of various kingdoms and lords are also relatively low. It's very dense and there are relatively many soldiers, so basically I can barely cope with it.
However, the offshore beaches and shallow sea areas on the continental shelf have gradually been completely invaded by various powerful marine fantasy species or mythical sea monsters! Countries or cities with docks have discovered in embarrassment these days that their ships sailing on the sea no longer have the same safety guarantees! ! Even after many ships went to sea, there was no news again...
But if it's to the north, for example, in the north of the Second British Administrative Region divided during the Roman Empire, in the two small border towns of Luguandin and Corsdelin close to the south of the abandoned Hadrian's Wall, then Not good!
According to reliable information, there, together with the lords and most of the residents, were slaughtered and occupied by evil undead that appeared from nowhere... This news is probably true! Because the people in the Eborak Territory, not far from the northern border, are panicked. Many people simply fled south with their families, hoping to get further away from those evil monsters?
And of course it won’t be too peaceful in the south!
In addition to the beach areas on the southern coast that no one dares to go to anymore, there is enough evidence to show that a huge white dragon once appeared in the area east of Camelot!
At that time, it and a blue-robed knight riding a white griffin fought directly from the south-central part of Britain to the east, and finally disappeared into the depths of the sea...
However, this news was not actually the most explosive. It was quickly replaced by the latest news!
Because, what makes people all over Britain even more horrified is that it is said that the Queen of Camelot, Arturia Pendragon, personally killed the beast named 'Baby King Volti' Geng's evil white dragon! A few days ago, the other party brought the other party's huge head back to Camelot with the help of an equally huge red dragon, and then placed it directly at the northern gate of Camelot like a decoration. superior!
Its head is said to be very big, as big as the city gate of Camelot!
At that time, when the huge red dragon placed its huge white head on the city gate, it almost caused serious panic and trampling in Camelot! Camelot became calm again after knowing that there were soldiers behind to maintain order and said that the red dragon was the mount of Princess Artoria.
However, many people do not want to believe this news... Some people say that it is real, and they have seen the head of the white dragon with their own eyes! And some people say that it is false. No one can defeat the giant dragon, and it is impossible for anyone to control the red dragon, a miraculous creature in myths and legends!
Those stubborn people firmly believe that all those are just rumors...
However, anyone who has been to Camelot City, or has seen the white dragon and the griffon knight fighting and flying towards the east, will more or less believe this fact that people are not willing to accept.
But no matter what, one person's name is being spread and hotly discussed throughout Britain, that is: the knight of the red dragon, the brave dragon-slayer, the master of the sacred griffon, the king of the flame knights, and the lord of Camelot. , Artoria Pendragon, who is about to be officially crowned king!
In the name of the 'Holy Griffin Kingdom of Camelot', she officially sent invitations to all kings and lords throughout Britain asking them to attend her coronation ceremony, and prepared to convene a meeting of lords that was related to Britain's life and death.
The official letter of invitation was very strange. In the official parchment letter, sealed with fire paint, there was an exquisite engraved medallion consisting of a red dragon, a griffon, a crown, and crossed swords... Although, this The invitation letter seems to be very inconsistent with certain etiquette, but the threat contained in it is self-evident, and most kings and lords can understand it clearly!
Suddenly, the situation across Britain became turbulent again...
But regardless of their unwillingness, all the lords of the kingdoms and territories who received the invitation letter, no matter what the reason was, expressed to the female knights riding gryphons who came to deliver the letter that they were willing to go in person or send someone to do so. Representatives of sufficient status went to Camelot to observe ceremonies and attend meetings.
——————
"It's such a big head..."
"Look at its mouth and those teeth. If it were still alive, it would definitely be able to swallow us, including humans and horses, right?"
"Uncle Captain, look, is this white dragon head really the one we saw on the beach a few days ago? It was bitten to death by the red dragon?!"
In front of the gate of Camelot, Gareth and other people from Orkney County were gathering outside the gate of Camelot, looking up at the huge and ferocious head above the gate.
It is said that the head of this giant dragon has been here for several days, and considering the time they arrived here from the east coast of Britain, it must be the one they saw fighting and flying over the red dragon in the sky that day. That white dragon?
"Her Royal Highness Princess Gareth, please stop calling me Uncle Captain!"
"I don't have a ship now. As I said, from now on, I don't want to be a sailor anymore!"
In the past, going to sea was an exciting and adventurous job. He loved waves and sailing boats! But now, going to sea is a life-threatening job, and he has made up his mind to change careers or retire... On the big island in Orkney County, he has already bought a large manor, which is enough for him and his family. The family has no worries about food and clothing.
"As for the head of that unlucky guy above..."
"If you think about it carefully, what they said on the notice board and what we heard when we came all the way from the east are roughly consistent with what we have seen, so I can guarantee that this is definitely what we saw at that time There is no doubt about that white dragon!”
Like the rest of his team, the bearded captain, who was looking up at the huge ferocious head placed on top of the city gate like a decoration, shook his head with emotion and firmly determined that he would never go to sea again.
The giant dragons on the land have appeared, so aren't there more terrifying beings in the sea? Therefore, continuing to go to sea to be a captain or something is indeed a high-risk thing, so it is better not to suffer the consequences.
If you think about it seriously, this Camelot is really amazing!
Such a powerful white dragon could be killed at will... Moreover, it is said that the Queen of Camelot also has many griffins, those big ones flying in the sky... There is even one A giant red dragon? !
From this point of view, it is probably only a matter of time before that woman makes the Kingdom of Camelot the master of Britain again!
There are so many powerful fantasy creatures, who can be their opponent? !
Looking back now, Big Beard suddenly felt that the reason why Ms. Morgan, the powerful witch princess in Orkney County, asked Gawain to come to Camelot to experience, must have some foresight, right?
"Brother Gawain!"
"What's going on? What did the soldiers at the city gate say? Are they still not letting us enter the city?"
After waiting boredly for a while, when he saw his brother, who was negotiating with the city gate soldiers in the distance, riding his horse back here, Gareth quickly patted his horse in a strange way and asked.
She and Gahoris did not have war horses originally, but the original owners of these war horses died fighting the undead, so the extra war horses were given to each of them, so that she would not run off to fight with her brother. squeezed into a saddle.
"They said that their queen-to-be has already sent them a message, saying that they will let us wait here first, and the other party will come out to greet us in person soon."
Gawain didn't think there was anything wrong with this. After all, there were more than a hundred people here, as well as dozens of heavily armed knights. It was understandable that they wouldn't let anyone in casually.
"What message?"
Gareth was a little confused and didn't know what it was.
"I don't know... maybe it's some kind of magic device? It looks similar... Anyway, that's what they meant. Let's wait patiently."
Gawain shrugged his shoulders. He himself was not sure about what the soldiers at the city gate said. But since they all said that they had notified the master of Camelot and their aunt Arturia, then they should just wait here honestly.
That device must indeed be magic...
Originally, they could be received and arranged according to the treatment of the viewing groups sent to Camelot by various countries.
But when he went to negotiate, Gawain said that he was ordered to come to Camelot for other reasons. He did not know about the ceremony, and there was no invitation letter. In addition, he also said that he came to Camelot on his behalf. After his mother Morgan Le Fay Pendragon arrived here, the officials did not dare to make decisions without authorization. However, after playing with a very strange device, he was told: The queen will come out soon. Greet them personally.
It really is a giant dragon...
He shook his head and looked at the huge dragon head above the city gate. The huge sense of oppression, even if the opponent was dead, made Gawain feel very uncomfortable!
"magic?"
"But why did she come to greet us?"
Gareth didn't want to care about magic or anything, because she had already seen too much when she was in Orkney! Her mother, Morgan, is a terrifying and powerful witch! Therefore, what she is more concerned about now is: Why can't people like herself go in now, but others can?
"..."
"She came to pick us up because she is a relative of our family!"
Gawain looked at his sister angrily and shook his head and said, this guy forgot such important information?
"Huh? That's right, I almost couldn't remember it. She is our aunt!"
Gareth finally remembered that Artoria Pendragon, who was said to be only three years older than herself, was the sister of their mother Morgan? If you look at it this way, it is indeed reasonable for the other party to come to greet you and others in person.
"But...brother Gawain!"
"Look, we have already seen the white dragon, and it only has a pitiful big ugly head! But what about the red dragon, where is the big red dragon we saw a few days ago?"
"There are only those little griffons in the sky now, where is their red dragon?!"
From just now, Gareth has been paying attention. In the sky above the Camelot area, there are only some griffins in groups, making bursts of eagle calls and flying past from time to time... In addition, There is no trace of that huge dragon that is said to be able to defeat the white dragon!
A big red dragon or something like that. Where did the Camelot people hide it?
"You!"
Shaking his head, Gawain no longer cared about his troublesome sister. It would be nice to just stay there quietly like Gahoris.
Well, actually, after his brother saw the dragon's head, he was so frightened that he could not speak. He was also a little too timid. He was not a qualified knight.
'Ee'er~Ee'er~! '
'What a beautiful mare! Gao Wenqing, I’m attracted to it! '
However, before Gawain could explain more things to his brothers and sisters, the fairy horse under his crotch suddenly snorted loudly, and then kept moving its four hooves in place, trying to If it hadn't been restrained by Gawain's gorilla, it would have immediately rushed to kneel down and lick the beautiful mare.
"They're coming!"
"Greengret, from now on, you'd better stop talking nonsense!"
After reaching out and slapping the head of the brown-red fairy horse under his crotch to make it stop going into heat or talking nonsense, Gawain began to look into the distance attentively.
The sound of horseshoes hitting the stone slabs was heard. In the sound of the earthquake getting closer and closer, he saw the person they were waiting for:
On the straight and spacious stone road in the gate of Camelot City, a female knight with blond hair, blue dress and gorgeous silver armor was sitting astride a majestic white war horse, leading six people. The heavily armed knights in golden armor galloped out toward them outside the city gate.
Obviously, the woman in charge must be the queen of Camelot, and also their aunt!
'咴咴~! '
Soon, the female knight who rode up in front of Gawain and his group used her skillful riding skills to pull her horse slightly and stopped in front of this group of people from Orkney County. Then, after scanning all the people present with his sharp eyes, he quickly focused on Gawain.
"You must be Gawain, right?"
"I am Artoria Pendragon, welcome to my Camelot!"
Although she was very familiar with Gawain's nephew, who was wearing silver armor and a gold-blue cloak, and the two nieces and nephews next to him, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, she still pretended not to know them. He looked directly at Gawain, who was in charge, and asked in a pretentious manner.
The three brothers Gawain, Gahoris, and Gareth, plus dozens of knights and many unarmed followers. After seeing these people, Artoria finally breathed a sigh of relief!
These are all talents who come to your doorstep...
Especially Gawain!
Thinking back then, the other party had been with her through life and death, experienced almost all battles, big and small, was loyal to her, and finally died with her on the hill of the sword fence. He was the knight she could trust the most!
Therefore, when she heard that the city gate officer used the instant battle communication equipment that little Annie had made to send her a message and told her that they, the people from Orkney County, were here to defect to Camelot, she knew that she The first group of knights willing to be loyal to her finally appeared!
Moreover, she believed that it would not be long before her adopted father and adopted brothers would also think clearly about it, and then, after she was crowned in two days, more of those stubborn guys would surely also figure it out. Will you choose to join your own?
At that time, the Kingdom of Camelot will become like its previous life, able to rule the entire Britain!
Even this time, her country will definitely be stronger than in the last life! Because she is now the Queen of the Red Dragon - Artoria Pendragon!
She is the red dragon, she is the embodiment of Britain!
Moreover, after defeating and killing the white dragon, she directly gained almost all of the opponent's power! She is unparalleledly powerful now!
'Yes! '
'The white-skinned gorilla on my back is Gawain! May I ask, my dear Queen of Camelot, what is the name of this mare under you? What breed is it, and why have I never seen a white horse as beautiful as it? '
However, before Gawain and the others could speak, a certain brown-red elf horse that had been impatient for a long time hurried forward without hesitation, and then spoke to Artoria, who was in a daze. While standing there, he shamelessly approached the opponent's white horse, as if he wanted to rub the ears and temples of the beautiful and strong white horse and make out?
Unfortunately, it didn't have time to take advantage of the white horse. The other knight pulled the reins and made the white horse take two steps back to avoid its rude behavior.
"It's called Jieying, and it's a divine horse from Mianas..."
Da Mao, who was a little dazed, spoke subconsciously, and then she quickly came back to her senses.
"Wait! You're just a horse, how can you talk?!"
Arturia was really shocked, because, including her previous life, she had never heard that Gawain's brown-red horse was intelligent, and she never thought that a horse could be intelligent. speak English!
Although Britain is becoming more and more abnormal now, and she has seen all kinds of monsters and mythical creatures on the sand table, but... a horse that can talk is a bit too scary, if If it were a centaur, she probably wouldn't be so out of control.
'I am the fairy horse Greengret, and I am no ordinary horse! '
'Dear Queen Artoria, can you please lock me and your divine horse in the same stable at night? I, Greengret, am very honest and will never do anything bad! '
Yes, Greengret swore that he would never do anything bad. If he did, he would be a beast!
At that time, no matter how much they, humans, scold it, it will never defend it.
"..."
Arturia was still staring blankly at the talking stallion in front of her who seemed to be trying to get close to her, so much so that she had even forgotten the words she had just planned to talk to her nieces and nephews. .
"Feel sorry!"
"I'm really sorry... Aunt Artoria, please don't mind too much. This is the way my horse is. As you know, the world is getting more and more dangerous now, so I don't think too much about it. Restrain this fantasy-bred fairy horse.”
With some embarrassment, he pulled the reins hard and pulled Greengret farther away. Then Gawain, dumbfounded, apologized and smiled at the pretty girl riding the white horse opposite who seemed a little shocked.
That's right, the other person's appearance is very similar to that of his mother Morgan, who is getting younger and younger, or in other words, has never aged. They must be sisters.
"So that's it!"
Nodding, after hearing the other party's explanation, a certain idiot finally calmed down.
"It's just, Gawain, I advise you to castrate something like a war horse as soon as possible, otherwise it will be very fatal if it runs around on the battlefield!"
After frowning and staring at the brown war horse a few steps away, Artoria tentatively suggested.
Yes, it is generally better for knights to use female horses on the battlefield, because females not only have stronger endurance, but also are not easily frightened by the chaotic battlefield, and they will not be confused when they see other stallions or temptations. run! Therefore, except for excellent stallions that are kept for breeding, all other war horses must be castrated!
?♂
In this case, the temperament of the stallions after being gelded will not be too explosive, and there is no need to worry about them causing trouble on the battlefield, let alone worrying about them being disobedient or in heat like now?
"..."
Gawain didn't dare to talk because he was afraid of accidentally offending the old man under his crotch.
Yes, compared to others, war horses are companions or enslaved subordinates, but for him, Gawain, this fairy horse given to him by his mother Morgan is a big shot who cannot afford to offend easily. , he usually has to be careful to compliment and worship each other, and not to offend easily.
'You're such a vicious and evil bitch! '
'Don't I just want to live in a stable with your mare, but you dare to encourage Gawain the Gorilla to castrate me? Come down here and try to see if I can't kick you to death! ! '
The goblin Maglingret was obviously irritated. What he hated most in his life was that others wanted to capture him!
If it's something like losing another stallion and reducing its own competitors, then it doesn't matter, but is it happy to see the results? But... if anyone wants to capture it, then it will definitely let the other person taste the power of its fairy horse's hooves!
"..."
"snort!"
Arturia's face darkened, and she began to stare fiercely at the elf horse on her horse that could speak human language and seemed to have a high IQ.
Yes, she kind of resented that horse now, too.
"Stop! Greengret!"
"Auntie, please don't get along with it. It's actually just a stupid horse."
Now, Gawain didn't know what to do. They had just met, and the other party seemed to have a dispute with his horse. What should he do next?
'no! Let me go quickly, Gawain Gorilla, I will kick her to death! '
The goblin horse still struggled unrelentingly, but unfortunately, Gawain tightly held its reins to prevent it from getting up and causing trouble again.
"Hmph! It's better to gel a horse like this as soon as possible!"
"Otherwise, it won't obey the command! Gawain, a groom in the stables of my palace is very good at this kind of thing with war horses. If you are afraid that you can't subdue it, these flame knights behind me are very powerful. I can definitely knock it over to the ground and pin it down."
Squinting her eyes slightly, Arturia was really a little angry when she saw that a horse dared to act in front of her. Now, as long as Gawain nods in agreement, she has plenty of ways to fix him!
"..."
'Evil bitch! Come down, I, Greengret, will fight you to the death! '
The fairy horse raised its hooves and struggled even more fiercely. It seemed that it really wanted to rush over and kick some evil woman who threatened to take it away!
With no other choice, Gawain had no choice but to jump off the horse and drag the opponent with his powerful strength. He also asked several knights to come to help, working together to pull someone who was blinded by anger. The goblin horse pulled away.
"Hello!"
"Are you playing some interesting game? Are you... are you going to fight?!"
(??????)?? ?
At this time, a white griffon suddenly swooped down from the sky, and then the little girl in a red dress who was sitting on the riding gear drove the huge griffon step by step towards the crowd who seemed to be having a dispute. He walked over here and came directly between the two horses facing each other. The fairy horse was so frightened that he immediately shut up and shrank back.
'...'
Yes, now Greengret does not dare to speak up.
Because, it saw the huge white griffin, staring at it with bloodthirsty and ferocious eyes, making it tremble all over! Greengret knew that it was a special feeling when encountering a natural enemy. If it were to encounter the enemy in the wild, this big guy would definitely catch it and eat it, right?
"No!"
"We are just discussing the talking brown-red war horse. It does not obey the command. I am suggesting that Gao Wenqing leave it to my groom."
Seeing that this little guy who had been running out to play all day and not seen anyone for three days came out at the right time, Arturia explained angrily.
"deal with?"
"Since it doesn't obey, can't we just take it to the kitchen?"
"Although horse meat may not be very tasty, the iron-pan-fried horse meat made by your chef is still very good! This horse is good, and the meat on its body is very thick!"
(ˉ﹃ˉ)
Annie thought it was going to be a fight, but it turned out to be this little thing? It's just a disobedient horse. It's such a simple matter to kill it and eat its meat.
'...'
"..."
"..."
At this time, both Fairy Horse and the people in Orkney County were stunned... They didn't understand why this little girl was so cruel? He wanted to eat meat when he opened his mouth, but it was even more ruthless than Artoria's reasonable suggestion just now. What is the background of the other party?
"Eh? There's a new one here?!"
At this time, before anyone could say anything, in the distance, a group of knights who seemed to have been watching, rode towards the crowd.
"Hello!"
"I am Lancelot, the son of the King of France, the eighth lineage grandson of Jesus Christ, and also a knight. I am here to express my congratulations to Her Majesty the Dragon-Slaying Queen of the Kingdom of Camelot!"
At this time, a knight in charge, wearing only a breastplate, bowed politely to the somewhat surprised idiot on his horse.
"Ah! Welcome, Knight Lancelot!"
Of course Artoria knows him! It can be said that this guy is almost one of the most powerful and famous guys in the Knights of the Round Table! Of course, at the same time, it can almost be said that she was the culprit that caused the disintegration of her Knights of the Round Table in her previous life!
So, now she has a little weird feeling. Although she doesn't hate the other person, but... it's just weird anyway.
"It's really dangerous here in Britain. Our ship almost couldn't reach the shore. I can't imagine that there are such legendary fish-men on your coast!"
Seeing that the two parties now knew each other, Lancelot showed a sunny smile and started chatting.
"Yes!"
"Britain's coast is certainly not safe right now."
Gawain asked his elf to be taken away, and he nodded in agreement.
At that time, if their captain had not made a decisive decision and directly ordered the insect beach to land, I am afraid that all the people in Orkney County would have fed that sea monster, right?
"Hey! Are you the guy named Lancelot?!"
(,,??.??,,)? ?
At this time, Anne turned the white-haired griffon under her and moved towards the other person curiously, as if she wanted to see what the other person looked like.
"Uh, yes!"
Lancelot suddenly felt a little confused, because he looked at the other person's tone and realized that this little girl didn't seem to like him very much?
"Wow! So you are the bad guy who likes to seduce other people's wives?!"
After blinking, Annie suddenly exclaimed.
Although she didn't know how bad the guy who seduced other people's wives was, nor did she know how to seduce other people's wives, she had heard this matter from Ilia and the others. Yes, that Lancelot is a very, very bad guy!
But now, she has finally met a real person.
"!!"
"??"
"..."
Behind the little girl, the group of people who didn't know the truth looked over again in shock and confusion, and a certain idiot's face turned black, and he lowered his head deeply, almost trying to find a place. Got into the seam.
“Absolutely ridiculous!!”
"I, Lancelot, as an upright knight, have never had any disgraceful scandal with any lady!"
Hearing little Anne's innocent words, a certain knight almost stumbled out of the saddle!
"Little girl, please tell me right away, whose mouth you heard these words from? For my reputation, I must have the fairest duel with him!!"
Lancelot said bitterly and angrily.
He couldn't imagine that it was his first time in this land of Britain, how could he suddenly hear bad rumors about him coming from a little girl's mouth?
Moreover, this kind of wording is still so vicious and dishonorable?
In short, he felt that his self-esteem had been seriously injured, and he urgently needed to find the person who had spread such irresponsibility and engage in a life-and-death duel to restore his dignity! He wants to use the blood of the other party to wash away the vicious frame imposed on him!
You know, he, Lancelot, is still a young virgin... He is only eighteen years old, and has never been close to a woman, how come he suddenly likes him? A bad guy who seduces other people's wives? !
In any case, he will never admit this title that has been inexplicably placed on his head! And, in fact, there is no such thing at all, and there will be no such thing!
"Are you really not that bad?"
(..??_??..)?
"Absolutely not!"
…
"Really?"
(′???`)?
"I guarantee my honor as a knight! I, Lancelot, have never done anything to tarnish the honor of a knight, and I will never do anything in the future!"
As if he saw the suspicious eyes of those around him, Lancelot swore firmly. He must explain this matter clearly, otherwise, he will be destroyed!
"I'm just asking casually, what are you so nervous about?"
(???????)
Annie really just remembered what she heard when the group of little guys discussed the origin of a certain idiot, and then asked casually, as for whether the other person was a bad guy or not, she didn't care!
"..."
