"What do you want to say, Spriggan?" asked Woodworth.
"No, I just think you all are so strong. I can't sleep well just thinking about the hell that lasted until seventeen years ago." Spriggan smiled cunningly and didn't look like he was scared at all.
"Since Londinion wants to start a war, then we will fight with him." Woodworth disagreed. "Her Majesty the Queen has protected my fairy clan for two thousand years. We should—"
Aurora, however, showed a sad expression. "But this war has lasted for 2000 years. They've levied an existence tax on us and prepared that throne, but why can't they destroy Londinium in one fell swoop?"
"That's hard to say." said Mu Ruien, the patriarch of the Wing Clan.
"What do you mean?" Woodworth always felt that these three guys had something else to say.
"That God-King is a human who's been active in Britain since the time of the Fairy Calendar. He seemed to have been called a sage before?" Murrayne said. "I've looked it up, and there's a record of him there. The rumors circulating in Londinium also say the same thing."
"What does Murrayne mean?" Aurora asked.
"After so many years of fighting, Your Majesty has never considered negotiating peace with the Divine King. It's as if the war should just continue like this." Mu Ruien looked bored. "Furthermore, Your Majesty appeared at almost the same time as the Divine King. Before that, where was Your Majesty? He couldn't have just appeared out of nowhere, right?"
Aurora was immediately surprised and frantically advised, "Are you suspecting that His Majesty and the King of Londinium are old acquaintances? This idea is extremely disrespectful. Please stop, Murrayn."
"...It's just nice talk." Mu Ruien didn't care at all, instead he glanced at the faces of the three clan leaders.
They didn't know that a guest named Gao Yanskaya had come to the Wing Clan not long ago.
Mu Ruien was not quite sure where the other party came from, but she got along very well with him and they became good partners.
At the same time, Goyanskaya also told her that the God-King of Londinium had a past relationship with the Queen of Camelot.
This coincides in some ways with the historical data that Murrayen collected out of interest, as well as the subsequent conjectures.
"Watch your words and actions. The war is imminent, yet you are here slandering His Majesty..." Woodworth tried to rebuke the previous remarks.
However, the seeds of doubt will inevitably be planted uncontrollably.
Goblins do not hate war and blood, what they hate is the war that they cannot control and the blood they are forced to shed.
As the clouds of war loomed over Britain, the goblin clans began to have their own ideas.
Chapter 107: The Same Journey
Since the letter declaring war was delivered to Camelot, Camelot and the territories of various clans have begun intensive preparations for war.
Even though neither side believed that this peace, which could end at any time, would last long, Camelot's preparations for war were more hasty.
In just ten days, the Londinium army made it all the way across the River of Tears southeast of Camelot and headed straight for the city of Camelot.
"It's really strange. We've clearly marched all the way here, and there are troops from at least two places, Norwich and Oxford, who can attack us from behind, but there is no sign of a surprise attack."
Artoria Pendragon, riding on East Starion, read the news reported by the scouts and said to Shiomi who was sitting in the chariot.
"Such is the viciousness of the goblins." Shiomi was unsurprised. "Whatever the reason, the goblin clan intends to wait and see after the battle begins. Once both Londinium and Camelot have been depleted, they'll attack from behind and wipe out both sides."
In that case, both the God King and the Queen would disappear, and Britain would return to a state where there were only fairy clans and humans were raised by fairies.
After all, the nature of fairies determines that they will not truly submit to other fairies.
This is also one of the important reasons why goblins have been fighting continuously for the past tens of thousands of years.
"Do we need to abandon our original strategy of attacking Camelot from three sides and only attack the main gate, leaving troops to prevent sneak attacks from other directions?" said Artoria.
"No problem. Maintain the original strategy and feint an attack on the east and west gates. I will personally lead the central army as the main force to attack Camelot's main gate."
"I'm guessing Morgan has made a similar move, focusing their defense on the main gate. Should we avoid this?"
"No need." Xijian shook his head.
"All right……"
Altria was well aware of the difficulty of a siege, but Shiomi insisted on attacking from the main gate. He would be the force to break the city and be the first to enter the city.
That would undoubtedly be the greatest morale boost for the Londinium army, allowing them to see that the invincible God-King is still alive.
But Xi Jian smiled bitterly at this time: "I never thought that one day I would hear words like 'the tactical direction of attacking Camelot' from you."
"It does look very similar to the Chalk City, but that's not my country." Artoria shook her head. "You don't need to worry about it."
Hearing her say this, Shiomi nodded silently to express his understanding and gratitude.
"But it's really strange. Only seventeen years have passed, and these fairies are already restless and want to rebel against their queen?" Xi Jian frowned slightly, revealing a displeased expression. "They really are still a bunch of hopeless trash."
"Tianxi..." Altria wanted to say something, but she had nothing to say.
But fairies themselves are non-human beings, and only a few of them can get along with humans in a friendly manner.
In the past, when she built Camelot, she relied on her teacher Merlin to mobilize the goblins and humans to collaborate and complete that ideal city.
When the door leading to the inner side of the planet was completely closed, the remaining fairies returned to the inner sea of the planet without any nostalgia.
"Don't worry, I'm used to it. I'm just thinking about future strategies." Shiomi said, suddenly raising his hand to signal a halt to the advance. "These clans with double entendres will be punished accordingly."
Artoria understood what he meant, raised the holy spear in her hand and gave a loud order.
"All troops, stop marching!"
Following this order, the army stopped and took up alert in a well-trained manner, especially the front army where Shiomi was, which was ready for battle.
However, there was only one enemy standing in their way.
"This is really embarrassing. I never dreamed in my life that when I lead an army to war, the person standing in front of us would be my own master."
Xiomi sighed helplessly.
Scathach, holding a red spear, stood on the road that the army must take to reach Camelot.
"Wait a minute, Tianxi. Your master may not be——"
"I know, it's just a joke." Xijian nodded.
He stood up from the chariot, then leaped into the air and landed lightly in front of Scathach.
Seeing her beloved disciple's closed eyes and the ridiculous expression on her face, Scathach stood still, waiting for his next words.
"Are you here to kill me, Master?" Xi Jian asked with a smile, his expression filled with tender nostalgia. "In this war, will you choose to help Morgan?"
"No, I just came to see what my beloved disciple is doing." Scathach glanced at Artoria, who was fully armed on the warhorse. Even through the helmet, she could feel the other's determination.
Not as the Knight King, but as the Lion King, helping Shiomi fight this war.
"As Master sees it, to start a war against Camelot." Shiomi opened his arms.
"for what?"
"In order to maintain this Britain, the fairies do not need a gentle peace. Only endless bloodshed can make them understand fear and hide under the protection of the king to survive." Xijian said calmly.
Scathach raised her chin slightly: "Although I don't know why you hate the fairies of Britain so much, even the Lion King stands on your side out of his own will..."
"She chose to witness my path, and I couldn't refuse." Shiomi smiled gently.
"Witness... the path." Scathach sighed, "It seems that I originally came to Chaldea to see you in order to witness the path of my beloved disciple, relying on the help of others."
"A lot has happened. The path I'm taking now may not be what Master wants to see." Xi Jian lowered his hands, with no will to resist. "If Master thinks I'm a bad person and is blocking the army to kill me, can you please let me live for now? Once my work is done, I'll be at Master's disposal."
"Stupid." Scathach walked up to Ximen with a gun in hand. "Will your master show mercy just because you beg for mercy?"
"No, but I have to do this." Xijian still spread out his palms loosely. "After all, Master can't kill me, right?"
"Then your plea for mercy just now was just empty words?" Scathach looked helpless.
"...Even if I can't fulfill it, my idea is not false." Shiomi smiled calmly.
"Then I think I understand." Scathach raised her free left hand and knocked him on the head lightly. "Next time you do something like this, remember to call your master along."
"Master..."
"Don't forget, I'm not just your master." A gentle sadness appeared between Scathach's eyebrows.
"Master, are you going to leave Sakura and the others in Camelot and turn against us alone?" Xijian already understood Scathach's thoughts and couldn't help but ask teasingly.
Scathach turned around and looked towards the Chalk City at the end of the field:
"They're not that weak."
Chapter 108: War Begins
Over the past two thousand years, countless battles have taken place under the city of Camelot, and it has been captured by the army of the God-King three times, forcing Queen Morgan to lead her troops to withdraw from the city.
Every time Camelot fell, it was because the goblins in the city betrayed their masters for personal gain, but each time the result was the same.
So this time, Morgan ordered the main force in the city to go out of the city to meet the enemy, leaving only a few controllable guards to guard the city gate.
Once the main force is defeated, the city gates will be lowered immediately.
After all, whether the city gates are closed or not, Shiomi will not leave anyone alive.
However, having said that, the main force used to defend the main gate is not an army that can be easily defeated.
The goblin knight Lancelot, together with the goblin knight Gawain, led the main force to meet the enemy outside the city.
"That's... the fairy knight Gawain." Artoria looked at the formation outside the city from afar.
"In terms of sheer size, it's indeed very close to Gao Wenqing." Xijian smiled. "But be careful. Although she claims to be able to wield Galatine, that's not the sword she actually uses. The real part is her horn as a Noble Phantasm, not the true Holy Sword of the Sun. Be careful to distinguish."
"I understand." Artoria nodded. "So I will hold Lord Gawain here, and as for Lord Lancelot—"
"Of course, leave it to me." Scathach twirled the red spear in her hand. "I didn't expect to fight Lancelot again, but this time it's a little girl."
"That's not a little girl, that's the left hand of the Last Dragon, Albion. It has gained its own life and form."
"Oh? That's quite interesting."
Shiomi raised his hand and swung it forward, giving the order to attack Camelot.
Three-colored signal magic bullets were launched into the sky.
The two Londinian armies, which were divided into the east gate and the west gate, also launched an attack at this moment.
The Londinium army and the Camelot army collided with each other and started fighting.
Shiomi jumped off the carriage and walked towards the city gate on foot. The Camelot soldiers who tried to stop him were cut into pieces by invisible magic as soon as they got within three meters.
He walked through the battlefield at the main gate as if he was strolling in the garden.
Then, as expected, Melusin and Bagster noticed Shiomi and immediately rushed up with weapons in hand.
Melusin wants to ask Shiomi about his intentions, while Bagster wants to stop him.
What blocked their way were two guns of completely different styles.
"Zhu Qiang? The same as the God King... who exactly are you..." Meilushin was shocked.
"You actually recognize the gun in my hand. It seems that my beloved disciple also revealed the true form of the Red Gun in the past war." Scathach glanced at Melusin's weapon and took out a second gun without hesitation. "Let me see if you are worthy of the title of the strongest fairy knight."
"His Majesty the Divine King...Master?"
This fact alone almost made Melusin lose the will to fight, but she had to fight, after all, the murderous aura on Scathach was real.
Just to survive, we have to keep fighting.
Amidst the clash of swords and spears, Mirusin saw Shiomi slowly enter the main gate of Camelot.
"Is there still time to be distracted?" Scathach asked, "Do you really want to fight my beloved disciple?"
"...It's not like that..." Melsinger fired Scathach's gun.
She had once fought against Shiomi on the battlefield and recognized that Scathach's marksmanship was the same as Shiomi's.
the other side.
After Shiomi was satisfied that he could teach his master and Altria about the battlefield, he continued to walk slowly towards the city.
He could sense that Morgan's magic was in the direction of the palace.
However, he did not arrange for a clone to test him. It seemed that he was waiting for him in the palace while preparing to fight the enemy with all his strength.
Thinking of this, Shiomi decided to speed up his pace.
Then, sharp claws falling from the sky interrupted his progress.
"You are—" Shiomi was slightly surprised, "Reinecke's descendant. I remember his name was Woodworth?"
"That's right." Woodworth stood up from the big hole he had created.
"I thought all the clans were waiting and watching, but I didn't expect that some were not." Xijian smiled faintly.
"It is our mission to be loyal to the Queen. It is the other clans' problem if they have rebellious intentions. After this war is settled, I will deal with those guys." Woodworth raised his hand, his claws flashing with a sharp cold light.
