Abomination and the Legendary Dragon King

Chapter 445 The last straw that broke the camel's back

Queen Banyu Mushroom bent slightly, and said to the legendary cavalry commander.

Then the Mushroomman logistics troops left the forest under the doubtful eyes of the soldiers of the White River Principality.

"This is a perverted physique, and he was unmoved in the face of a charge by the legendary cavalry."

The legendary soldier captain staggered to his feet and pulled up his compatriots around him at the same time.

Although the Banyu mushroom and the rest of the mushrooms did not take the initiative to attack.

But a wave between them is also extremely powerful for these cavalry.

You know, these mushroom people were able to blow up a legendary undead with one punch when they had never received Alex's blessing in the Underdark.

And Alex's blessing is to make powerful things stronger, and make mediocre things extraordinary.

The mushroom people who have been blessed have also been growing up with Alex.

In terms of individual combat effectiveness alone, an adult mushroom man is definitely much stronger than an ordinary adult dragon blood orc.

If it weren't for the nature of these mushroom people who really don't like fighting, I'm afraid Alex would have an invincible army of mushrooms now.

Not long after the mushroom man left, a rogue in charge of intelligence handed over a piece of secret information to the old king with a look of fear on his face.

The army of the Principality of Baihe, which had a bad start, gathered its number and stationed outside the forest again.

In a spacious and warm tent with a burning brazier, the old king Rupert opened the secret letter in his hand.

It was normal at the beginning, maintaining the majesty of the king and the wisdom of the old man.

But not long after, the old king's hands began to tremble,
It suddenly staggered and fell backwards.

If it wasn't for the envoy beside him who quickly placed a chair under the king, the old king would have fallen to the ground.

"My dear king, what happened, would you mind sharing it with your courtiers?"

The attitude of the old king made the people around him nervous.

The guard who had followed the king all his life dared to ask a question.

The old king stared blankly at him, and then said in a hoarse voice after a while;
"The First Empire is defeated."

……

At night, the camp of the Baihe Principality fell into solemnity.

In the room serving as a temporary conference room, under the dim candlelight, everyone remained solemn.

"Is the accuracy of the news reliable?"

The old king said hoarsely.

"There is no problem with the source of the news. It has been confirmed by our rogues and the First Empire. There will definitely be no mistakes."

Beside him was a wandering legend who spoke hoarsely.

He was wearing a black robe, and he seemed to be one with the darkness in the dim light.

"So, what do we do now?"

Another person spoke up.

Those who can appear here are the confidantes of the old king, the ministers who held great power in the past.

However, when talking about themselves and their country's future, these people's voices are obviously hoarse.

"Surrender to them?"

"Or do you want to escape from the northern border now and become a businessman in the First Empire or the Holy Alliance of the West?"

The people around started discussing in a hurry, and the camp was full of panic.

"Report~"

Another guard made a panicked sound at the door.

"Any more bad news?"

The old king curled his lips, and at this point he had no idea what to do.

"Things are at their worst, and it's okay to get worse."

The old king thought so, but what happened next still exceeded his expectations.

It was his child who came in from outside the tent.

The only son and the heir to the throne of Duke Baihe - Roy.

However, compared with the gentle, sunny and handsome child in the old king's impression, the current prince's appearance is so embarrassing that he can't recognize him.

The prince's fair face was covered with silt, and there was even a stench of excrement.

The originally luxurious clothes were full of holes, and one of his shoes was lost.

The most surprising thing was the prince's demeanor, which had no trace of human vitality in it.

It's like a puppet after being captured by a necromancer.

When the prince walked in, the people around fell silent.

After seeing the king, the distraught prince who was like a puppet seems to have regained a little vitality.

He threw himself at his father's knees.

"What the hell happened, my boy?"

He wanted to open his mouth to tell about the suffering suffered in that city, but before he could speak, tears and crying had already occupied all his ability to express.

"What happened!? Why are you crying like a child?"

The old king said in a calm voice again.

Although the old king had already realized that something was wrong when he saw the prince for the first time.

But he still kept his attitude as solemn as possible.

Now that people are panicking, he must remain calm no matter what.

Every choice he makes will affect the fate of millions of people in his country.

He is old, but he has to use his frail body to face this great change that has not been seen for thousands of years.

"My father~ our home is gone."

"Those pirates, those pirates broke into our city, set houses on fire, burned my mother and my sister."

"They are so ferocious, like ghosts crawling out of hell, without reason at all"

"It's crazy Eve, that crazy pirate, my father, you must avenge your people, your wife and daughter!"

Roy said in a crying tone.

He has traveled a long way, even with a legendary guard by his side—Shield Maiden Cecil.

But under the siege of pirates, the attack of alien beasts and the intimidation of those unspeakable monsters hidden in the darkness, there have been many twists and turns along the way.

The world is changing, Tyrael is recovering, and the world is becoming more and more dangerous.

If it wasn't for the fact that Cecil was really strong, Roy would have become the rations of those monsters now.

But even so, the days of eating and sleeping in the open air, the long-distance raid without sleep, and the panic between life and death have completely plunged this prince who has never traveled far into a state of fear.

Without hesitation, he opened his mouth and shouted out everything that happened in the capital, in front of his father and his courtiers.

However, what Roy is doing now is the last straw that breaks the camel's back. After he finished speaking, the main camp fell into absolute silence.

There are not only the family members of the king in that city, but also the families of these courtiers.
