Chapter 28 The Triumph of the Army
During the thousands of years of war between the high elves and the trolls, although they have killed important generals of the opponent many times, it is really rare to capture them alive.
With the hatred between the two sides during the troll war, most of the time, the trolls will be killed directly to vent their anger.
After the end of the troll war, although the high elves continued to have local wars with the trolls, they had not killed any important figures of the Amani trolls for more than a thousand years.
After all, the trolls are also familiar with this forest, even higher than the elves. When these tall and long-legged guys want to escape, it is difficult for the high elves to catch up.
On the way back to the Taquilin ranger station, Li Reza looked at the dejected Halaz who was locked in a cage and smiled with satisfaction.
"Charlemagne, your meritorious service in catching this guy will definitely be rewarded by His Majesty Anasterian. Have you thought about the reward you want?"
For her disciple who made such a great contribution when he first entered the battlefield, she is naturally honored as a mentor, although this victory is not without price...
Looking at the long scar on Charlemagne's right face, Li Reza sighed with distress.
and…
His second daughter, Cirvanas, also felt very guilty for Charlemagne's injury. After the war, she kept avoiding Charlemagne, and secretly looked at him with complicated expressions from time to time.
‘Hey... I don’t know if Aurelia will blame me for not taking good care of her lover when she comes back? '
At this time, Charlemagne's bold laughter interrupted Li Reza's thoughts that were gradually going astray.
"Haha, do you still need to talk about the mentor? Of course I want His Majesty the Sun King to bestow on me the artifact that I have always dreamed of - Thoridar Stars' Wrath!"
Charlemagne, who was riding forward slowly on Xunyu, looked energetic, and even the pure white chocobo under him seemed to sense the high emotions of his master, and proudly held his head up, pretending to be majestic.
Xunyu is more clever than ordinary chocobos because of his long life span. Charlemagne once doubted whether this guy would become a spirit...
"Hehe, is that really the case, but your contribution this time is also great enough, we haven't had such a big victory for at least a thousand years, but do you really not want power and money?"
"Your credit this time should be enough for you to enter the middle level as an official, and the money should be even more massive. Are you sure you have thought about the reward?"
Charlemagne nodded without hesitation to the tutor's question.
"Rights and money mean nothing to me. I have already made plans for my future, and being an official is obviously not in my plan!"
After all, there are still 16 years before the high elves will face their first major catastrophe. What's the use of being an official? A middle-level official is still a second-hand knife transferred by the army. It is not to be played to death by those old fritters in officialdom Weird thing.
As for money, no one would think it too much, but Charlemagne, who is pressed for time, still chooses to improve his strength as his first choice, and the family left him a lot of money. The family is just him and his younger brother Lor'themar, even if they only It's not enough to go in and out for a long time.
"Since you have already made a decision, your meritorious service should be enough to be given to Thoridar this time. After that? Are you planning to join the traveler of the Farstrider?"
"Well, but before that, I still want to continue to enrich myself. First of all, I need to stabilize my realm. I still don't understand a lot about high-level things. I hope my instructor can clarify my doubts."
"No problem, come to me after the king's summons is over, and you can celebrate with everyone during this time."
It is a tradition handed down by the high elves to celebrate victoriously. At this time, due to the notification from the scouts, the military town of Taquilin has already prepared a grand celebration ceremony.
Lianda also had a happy smile on her face at this time. The results of this visit to gilding were completely beyond her expectations. Not only did she capture an important leader of the troll alive, but she also felt her own strength during the battle with the sorcerer. Bottlenecks are also gradually loosening.
Eager to go back to Silvermoon City to try to break through, she immediately bid farewell to Li Reza.
"General Windrunner, after returning to Tarquilin, I will send back to Silvermoon City to inform His Majesty the Sun King of this good news, so I won't celebrate with you, please forgive me."
Of course Li Reza knew about Lianda's responsibilities, so she nodded and agreed indifferently.
"It doesn't matter, Your Royal Highness should go if you have business to do. Your Majesty hopes to hear the good news as soon as possible."
Lianda saluted gracefully to express her gratitude, "Thank you General for your understanding. My mages and priests will choose whether to stay in Takulin to participate in the celebration according to their own wishes, and please ask the General to take care of them."
"No problem, leave it to me."
While the two leaders were talking, the young people here also chatted together.
After the baptism of war, the original young masters Sean Dawnwalker and Lanas Flameblade have obviously matured a lot. Sean no longer calls you a ranger after he has personally experienced a real war and faced trolls. For mud legs.
Originally living in an ivory tower, he truly realized the importance and hardships of these rangers when he went out to be gilded this time. Since he fought with Charlemagne many times, the relationship between the two has become much better .
One of the men's four major irons is to carry a gun together. This time, Sean's highlight performance at the critical moment changed Charlemagne's dislike for him, and Charlemagne's avenging his wounds and breaking through the battle also made Sean feel bad for him. Look at it differently.
The two had made an appointment to go back to Taquilin together to get drunk, but Lanas was more reserved and said that he would go back to Silvermoon City with Chief Lianda to report the situation.
The leader of the priest, Liadrin, also decided to stay to participate in the celebration ceremony. This female man who can put down the staff, take off the priest's robe, pick up the hammer and put on the plate armor is obviously not the kind of awkward big man. Miss.
Because of their similar personalities, she quickly became friends with Cirvanas during this war, and her friend's recent mental state also made her a little worried.
She always felt that the eyes of Cirvanas looking at Charlemagne seemed to be not just pure guilt, but... also mixed with very complicated emotions.
As the large army finally entered the Tarquilin, Charlemagne, who was chatting and joking with Sean, immediately saw his younger brother Lor'themar and the two little guys from the Windrunner's family anxiously waiting by the roadside.
As the commander of the army, the instructor still has important matters to deal with. After greeting Li Reza and the others, Charlemagne led Xunyu and Cirvanas to the front of the three of them.
"Aqiang, Vereesa and Lilas, we have returned in triumph!"
