Davian Holy Grail War
Page 52
But they also felt that if they were to exploit those villages completely, it would be an unjust act that violated the code of chivalry.
But they don’t think about how they will maintain their equipment if they don’t do this, and how they will ensure their rations and the rations of their war horses?
Of course the king does not want to exploit the people, but if he does not do so, and if he does not work hard to strengthen his armaments, their army will simply be unable to resist the invasion of other countries.
The country will lose the power to protect its people, and this will be the worst outcome, and Altria does not want to see this.
But she must do this, even if she will be criticized by the people and knights as an exploiter, she must do it.
"Someone has to do these things, it can be me or you. Otherwise, their lives will not only be hard, they will even lose their lives.
Compared to losing their lives in the war, now they can at least blame you and live a hard life. This may be what is called - it is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. "
Davian spoke the hard truth, a reality they had both realized long ago.
They all agree that protecting the people of the country is more important than chivalry.
Chapter 121 Christmas
After the victory, the British army set out on their journey back to the island. When they returned to Camelot, it was almost New Year's Day. They spent the whole year fighting against the Roman army.
Davidian didn't think much of it. After all, his life alone was relatively simple. Apart from the war, he only had daily work to do.
Lancelot also cooperated with King Perinoah to repel the joint attack of the five kings. King Perinoah praised Lancelot's achievements in the envelope.
In the several wars with those kings, Lancelot was extremely brave and killed countless enemies. It can almost be said that he truly single-handedly overturned the balance of war and achieved rich results.
If he were not a knight of France, and a prince of Benwick, he should be greatly rewarded and kept in Britain.
King Perinoah's letter was full of such regret, and Artoria laughed at the message.
But because they have fought several more wars over there than here, they are still on their way back even now. But compared to Davian and the others, Lancelot and his party will return to Camelot later.
On Christmas Day, yes, these people on the British Isles still celebrate Christmas.
Davian was pushing a food cart with a roast chicken he had made himself, a range of other dishes, and two bottles of wine that Tristan had given him earlier.
He felt that this was a rare opportunity and now was the right time to open the two bottles of wine, so he went to the king's duty room.
But before he even walked in, he heard the king complaining:
"It's good to have a duty room, but isn't it a bit too luxurious? It's almost the same as the round table hall. I still like the simple style without complicated decorations..."
Merlin's voice followed: "Living a luxurious life is part of a king's job.
King Arthur, what's wrong with that? Eighty percent of Camelot was not built by you humans, but by goblins.
It’s not like we used the people’s hard-earned money to build such an exaggerated city.”
"My Lord, may I come in?"
He knocked gently on the door, and the king told him to come in. When Merlin and Altria saw Davian pushing the dining table, they were both a little surprised.
But then they remembered that today was Christmas, which was indeed a good day for such fine wine and delicious food.
Davian placed all the dishes he had prepared and the still steaming roast chicken on the table, then opened the bottle of wine and poured the king a full glass.
Then he poured a cup for Merlin as well, and finally it was his turn. At the same time, he also understood the king's dissatisfaction just now, this service room was really too luxurious.
Although the table was made of wood, the top was polished to a mirror-like shine. There were also many ingenious carvings on it, and it was obvious that it was very expensive.
And the surrounding walls and other decorative furniture in the room all looked like a service room that a real king should have.
Arturia took a sip of the wine and praised: "It's really good. It's hard to get such good wine in Britain. Where did you get it?"
"Tristan gave it to me. I don't know much about wine. To me, wine is just a drink. If you like it, that would be great."
David also tasted the wine, but of course he couldn't taste anything fancy. At best he just felt the sweetness of the wine.
"Ah, that's great. Tristan is indeed Tristan. He always manages to get these good things."
Merlin was drinking happily, while Davian drank silently and didn't want to pay attention to him. This guy, is he a little too proud of himself?
After drinking, Arturia brought up the previous topic again: "Merlin, aren't the people who built Camelot all human beings?"
"Of course not. Half of them are goblins pretending to be humans, and the other half are human goblins who know that the other party is a goblin but pretend not to know and continue to work."
Merlin had finally explained who was building Camelot. If it was entirely humans, they probably wouldn't have built the palace yet.
Davian put down his wine glass and asked: "But I heard that the good goblins have left the ground and gone to the goblin country. Aren't the only ones left on the island only the giants, evil goblins and monsters that hate humans?"
He himself killed the vampire succubus Bavanshi, and once encountered a black dog near Oxford and forced it back. As far as he could see so far, he had indeed never seen a goblin that could help humans.
"Yes, indeed. Although the fairies have fled to the inner side of the world, they can still enter and exit freely. But the door probably won't last much longer.
The giants hate humans because of prejudice. They cannot break free from the shackles of the flesh and cannot transform into spirits like fairies.
So I can’t go to the inner side of the world, and I can only stay on the ground like now, afraid of being expelled by humans and civilization, and I can only live in fear. "
Merlin's explanation made Davian and Altria understand the truth of the matter, but there was nothing they could do. The giants would threaten the survival of mankind, so they had to be defeated.
This is what the elite 1st Great Company does when they are not engaged in war. They will wander Britain looking for any inhuman creatures that may threaten human survival, and then drive them out and destroy them.
"What about dragons? Where are the dragons that protect Britain?" Arturia asked this question out of pure curiosity.
"The dragon has been hiding underground since the beginning of the Western calendar. It has been dormant for nearly 500 years. It is estimated that it has turned into stone by now, and will soon merge with the earth.
As for his soul, it has long gone to the inner side of the world, and the body left on the ground has become useless, and has turned into ore or oil. "
Davian blinked. He knew that oil and ores were made from the bones of living creatures. Just like the corpses of dinosaurs would become like that in the future, I didn't expect that the real giant dragons would be like this too.
"I see, Merlin is really well-informed." Altria praised him, but Davian immediately said,
"Altria, I advise you not to praise Merlin too much. This guy is the typical one who will start a business if he is given a little color. I think his butt is about to be lifted up to the sky after being praised by you so much."
After hearing what Davian said, Merlin laughed:
"You're really harsh on me. But I am your teacher after all, so I still have a lot to tell you about mysteries.
But compared to the mysterious things, the reality is more distressing. Another group of Saxons have crossed the sea, and their number is still more than the previous one. Who is stationed in the south now?"
Chapter 122 Star Anchor
"Bedivere and Tristan. Bedivere felt ashamed of being severely injured by Lucius in the previous battle with Rome. So he volunteered to be stationed in the south. I was really worried about him, so I asked Tristan to accompany him."
Davian felt helpless about Bedivere's strong sense of responsibility. It was not his fault that he was seriously injured by Lucius, but he felt ashamed of it.
Alas, I really hope Merlin can have this mentality, and work hard to bring new vitality to Britain.
Although Davian knew deep down that this was impossible, he still hoped so.
"Haha, don't think I'm a workaholic. I'm not someone who works day and night like Aguguiwen. That's too much, I can't learn that."
Merlin asked this question with a smile, and Davian and Altria looked at each other and could only smile bitterly.
“Teacher Merlin, I would be surprised if you could be like Aguwen. I even think that the sun may rise directly from the west from now on.
But unfortunately, even Lord Aguguiwen only said that he hoped I could keep you within my sight to prevent you from causing any trouble.
And now, considering my duty as king, I think what he said is correct."
Because of her trust in Aguiwen, Altria has always done so.
As a result, Camelot's work efficiency actually improved significantly.
Altria was confused for a moment, then she made up her mind to try her best to prevent Merlin from doing anything rash and causing trouble for others.
Hearing what Altria said, Merlin couldn't help but make a sad face and said:
"This is increasingly shocking to me. I never thought you would trust such a gloomy man who looks like a ghost!
But he does have a nice pair of eyes, and he's a little bit neurotic, like the kind of secretary who doesn't care about authority.
The best thing about the round table is that all the knights are weird, which makes people not feel bored at all. "
Davian glanced at Merlin, then stopped him and said:
"Merlin, don't make comments about Aggravin. He is different from you. He is a man who sincerely tries his best to keep Britain going.
Although he is alienated by other knights because he is not good at expressing emotions, he is very important to this country. "
He also heard that in the coalition with the King of Denmark, Agrawen was feared and alienated by other knights because he sent his soldiers to the battlefield without changing his expression.
But because he was able to escape unscathed no matter how strong the enemy was when he personally went to the battlefield, he was respected by the soldiers.
He also has a new nickname - Ageguiwen who doesn't know the pain.
But if there were not enough generals this time, Aguiwen, as the assistant officer, would not have been asked to go to the front line personally.
After defeating the Roman coalition, Davian returned to Camelot and immediately began to deal with government affairs that ordinary officials could not handle. When he saw the harvests in various places this year, Davian almost fainted.
Each year is worse than the last.
Because of this issue, there are more voices of dissatisfaction with King Arthur.
Wasn't King Arthur a glorious king? Wouldn't it be true that if one obeyed his words, the country would become rich?
Criticisms like these began to grow, and Davian was unable to suppress them.
If it weren't for the defeat of Rome and the recovery of a lot of supplies and wealth, David's headache now would be how to maintain the armaments and the lives of the people who had no harvest in the early new year.
Seeing Davian's distressed expression due to these thoughts, Artoria comforted him:
"I can't help being blamed. This year is another disaster year, and the benefits from the forest are constantly decreasing. We can't share the forest with foreigners, so we can only import crops from abroad. Then I will have to trouble Sir Lancelot again."
"That's not the problem. This island is already very barren. The British are becoming gloomy because they can't see the Tower of Glory."
Merlin suddenly said this, but this made the two people in front of him confused. Altria was confused about the Tower of Light, and Davian was confused about the land.
"Tower of Glory? Do you mean Lungominiad?"
When Arturia said this, Merlin seemed to suddenly remember something and explained: "Ah, so I haven't explained to you about the Holy Spear and the Holy Sword. So, let's start with the Holy Sword. Bar……"
Merlin told Altria the origin of the holy sword, its true purpose, and its tremendous power.
This sword is not used to protect humans, but to protect the world. Altria is also aware of this, and Merlin has also told her a little about this in his spare time.
“I know, the true power of this sword cannot be used in battles other than saving the world, right?
Not to mention the Sword of the Chosen, the power of the Sword of Promised Victory is simply too strong.
To turn the entire land into a scorched earth along with the alien races would be putting the cart before the horse."
Merlin nodded. "That's it. That's how the Starlight is to be used. If the day comes when you have to fight as a hero instead of a king, don't forget this.
If you swing the holy sword without thinking, it will definitely backfire. Although you are strong, you will be fine. But ordinary people like Davian will probably be turned into ashes. "
After hearing his words, Davian silently put down his chopsticks, stretched out his fist and said to Merlin:
"I'm really sorry that I'm just an ordinary person. How about I, an ordinary person, give you two punches? Also, although it is true that Altria's body is relatively strong.
But don’t think of his body as if it were made of iron or something else. If it were in peacetime, he could live an ordinary life like an ordinary person and be happy without suffering. ”
Arturia pulled his hand down and gently patted the back of his hand to tell him not to be angry. Merlin also realized that his words were slightly out of line, so he quickly made up for it:
"Excuse me, then the next thing is the holy spear. This is not to defeat foreign enemies, but to stabilize the planet... It should be said to be the anchor of the planet."
He first started to talk about the location of Fairyland, the changes in the rules of survival on the planet, and then the end of the Age of Gods. He also talked about why dragons and fairies took the initiative to give up the surface to humans like them, and finally talked about this holy spear. role.
"In short, humans are now the representatives of this planet. But that is just a thin layer of cloth that will peel off with a slight lift.
If there is a piece of cloth that may be blown away at any time, what would you do? You would definitely not leave it alone, but if you don't want it to fall off, you would sew it up.
The fabric of the world you humans inhabit, the anchor that holds it to this planet is the Holy Lance—the Lance that shines in the End, the pillar that protects the primates, the Holy Lance Rungomyniad.
Chapter 123 The future mentioned by Merlin
Davian and Altria couldn't help but roll their eyes after hearing these huge words, and could even be said to be dumbfounded.
There is no way around it because the holy spear has been in Altria's hands for a long time.
"Why, why do you want to give me such an incredible thing?" She couldn't help but ask.
"Because you are the King of Britain. Listen carefully, this island is very special. The mainland has long been a human world. After all, the land connects countless countries. Where there are many humans, the laws of physics can be rewritten more quickly."
Merlin said so, but in fact he was just interested. After he got the Holy Lance, he thought about it for a long time and finally came to the conclusion that Altria was the most suitable.
"But this island is different. It still retains the atmosphere and mystery of the Age of Gods. This is the characteristic of small island countries. The more isolated it is from the mainland, the more mysterious the land is likely to remain.
Britannia is a particularly important place, after all, it is the planet's navel. It is a sacred place like the heartland for those who live in mystery."
Davian listened to this and said nothing in the end.
