Chapter 658 Good News

Yulong City.

This is the darkest moment before dawn, and the deep night covers the entire city.

Because of strict curfew measures, there were only sporadic flames on the walls of the vast city, shining on the guard soldiers patrolling back and forth.

The news of the victory of the Loire Valley has not been returned, and Yulong City is still at the highest level of alert at this time.

But in this quiet moment, even the most loyal soldiers will inevitably feel a fight in their eyes.

It was quiet around, with only the rustling sound of the night wind blowing through the treetops.

The commander of the Imperial Guard, Knight Pamela, strolled on the top of the city. Even though he saw the passing soldiers taking a nap, he did not step forward to scold him.

Since the fall of the Western Region, the Imperial Guards of the Dragon City have been in a state of high tension, and are always worried about when the orc army will suddenly reach the city. After such a long time, even the iron man can't stand it.

Therefore, the Knight Pamela turned a blind eye to some of the soldiers' inconsistencies in lazy behavior.

In fact, sometimes he wanted a large army of orcs to come immediately. Even if he died on the spot, it would be better than the constant torture in panic and anxiety.

Suddenly, the Knight Pamela stopped.

The servant next to him stepped forward and asked:

"Sir, what's wrong?"

The Knight Pamela didn't speak, but just looked at the western night sky with vigilance.

The attendant also quickly turned his head, but could only see a darkness...

Just as I was wondering, a little noise came from the darkness, breaking the tranquility of the night.

The Knight Pamela's eyes narrowed and immediately ordered:

"Blow the trumpet!"

Woo--

The low military horn sounded suddenly at the top of the city, which immediately made the imperial guards on the night boil.

Countless guard soldiers who woke up from their sleep, even before they could get dressed, hurriedly picked up their weapons and rushed to the city tower.

Each of them has only one thought left in their minds-

Could it be that the orcs have been killed?

Knight Pamela stood at the city with deep eyes, looking at the western night sky.

As time went by, he was able to accurately judge that it was the rapid sound of horse hooves.

The soldiers of the Imperial Guards on the city wall were on high alert, and the troops in the city also began to dispatch large-scale deployments and began to deploy defenses according to the plan that had been practiced countless times.

At this time, Yulong City was like a bowstring that had been tense for a long time, and a slight slight movement triggered a violent reaction.

Dada dada--

The sound of horse hooves became clearer and clearer. In the heavy night, a team of shadowy cavalry finally appeared.

They rode their war horses excitedly, yelling loudly while galloping.

Knight Pamela looked at it intently and finally saw clearly that it was a human cavalry, not an orc.

However, he did not relax his vigilance, but just wanted to hear clearly what the other party was yelling.

It was not until the cavalry rushed under the tall walls of Yulong City that their roars were heard clearly.

"We won!"

"The Orc Emperor is dead!"

"We defeated the Orcs in the Loire Valley!"

...

All kinds of messy expressions were passed to the city, and the Knight Pamela repeated in disbelief:

"They said, we won?"

Perhaps this good news came too suddenly, and the soldiers of the Imperial Guards on the top of the city were also stunned.

At this time, when he heard the commander's question, he didn't dare to answer for a moment.

The Knight Pamela finally woke up and immediately ordered the soldiers to open the city gate.

As the city gate opened, the news of victory spread like a spring breeze to every corner of Yulong City.

The imperial capital, which had been silent for a long time, seemed to have regained its vitality in an instant.

Even though it was still late at night, countless figures suddenly appeared on the streets. They were constantly asking the people around them to verify the authenticity of the news, as if they were afraid that it was just a dream.

By the time the first ray of sunshine of dawn shines on the streets of Yulong City, it has become a sea of ​​joy.

The nobles, knights, soldiers, civilians, people they know and do not know are all hugging each other enthusiastically, venting their long-depressed fears and sharing the joy of this moment.

When the Minister of Military Affairs Marquis Crick heard the sound of the war trumpets at the city, he thought that the orc army had attacked the city under Yulong. He was so scared that he didn't even wear armor. He ran to the city in pajamas until he ran into the commander of the Imperial Guard Knight Pamela halfway through the way, and he learned about the victory.

Then the old marquis, who was over 60, rushed to the Phoenix Palace at the speed of the wind. The speed was so fast that the Knight Pamela was stunned.

When the Knight Pamela came to Phoenix Palace through the joyful crowd, it was already blown away by the news of victory.

The attendants and the palace maids ran around like headless flies.

Knight Pamela also saw Prince Harrison not wearing any shoes, so he ran by the hall's corridor, and didn't know where he was going.

However, he did not pursue Prince Harrison, because the one who actually presided over the overall situation of Yulong City at this time was the Imperial Prime Minister Baron Heidegger, who entered the palace to report to the Prime Minister.

Entering the Hall of Political Affairs, Knight Pamela saw Baron Heidegger who had obviously not slept all night. Before he could finish his salute, the Prime Minister rushed to the front and asked anxiously:

"Where is the battle report? What about the battle report?"

The messenger who followed the Knight Pamela into the palace quickly submitted the battle report.

Baron Heidegger snatched it and looked carefully.

When he saw the battle report that the Imperial coalition won a great victory in the Loire Valley, wiped out the War Song Legion, and beheaded the Orc Emperor Saruman, Baron Heidegger was excited to pull his beard off.

Then he walked out and shouted excitedly as he walked:

"Where is His Highness Harrison? Go and find His Highness quickly and ask him to officially announce this great good news to the people of Yulong City on behalf of His Majesty!"

However, after Prince Harrison received the news, he immediately rushed out of the bedroom and ran to the side hall where Marquis Garcia was located.

"Uncle! Uncle! We won! Your strategy is correct! We can indeed defeat the orcs in the Loire Valley!"

Marquis Garcia was wearing clothes. After hearing Prince Harrison's excited cheers, he just turned around and smiled, as if he was not too surprised by this.

Seeing this, Prince Harrison said in confusion:

"Uncle, why don't you seem to be too happy?"

Before the Marquis of Garcia could speak, he saw another group of people coming to the door.

Prime Minister Baron Heidegger said to Prince Harrison panting:

"Your Highness, please prepare as soon as possible. We will announce this good news to the people of Yulong City in the central square later!"

"Oh OK!" Prince Harrison certainly would not refuse.

He went to grab the Marquis of Garcia's hand and invited:

"Uncle, please accompany me. I will correct your name and let the people of the empire know that this victory will be thanks to your plan!"

The Marquis of Garcia shook his head and said, "Sorry, Your Highness, I have other things to do, so I can't accompany you."

"What else do you have?" Prince Harrison asked in confusion.

Marquis Garcia meticulously buttoned the shirt and said lightly:

"I'm going to go to the Cathedral of Holy Light."
