Chapter 87 Confidence

The Eagle City is generally believed to be built by the wilderness sage Garunas a hundred years ago, and its structure is quite clever. Although the palace in the center of the city has been repaired several times, the overall construction concept of Garunas is retained. This palace is not only exquisite, but also has certain military defense capabilities. In theory, since it is difficult to use heavy siege weapons in the city, the palace only needs to rely on a small amount of internal troops to block the attack of the enemy.

However, no matter how strong the fortress is, it cannot stop the destruction of the traitor. When this "traitor" refers not to one or two people, but to nearly half of the defenders, the effect is even more obvious.

Essin was standing in the office of the court chief. At this time, he was fully armed, with Falysses and more than twenty other soldiers around him, while Scadra, who was standing opposite him, was only one, bare-handed and wearing a uniform. At Essin's feet, the bodies of three guard soldiers were lying. In this situation, even a stranger who accidentally entered the scene could quickly guess what had happened.

"Master Scadra." Essin smiled and looked at his former boss in front of him. Scadra was completely qualified as the chief of the palace, but he had no military experience. In this case, he miscommanded and did not gather enough manpower at the first time, so that Essin could easily occupy the gate of the palace. Of course, even if Scadra commanded well, things would not be delayed for a long time or three minutes at most, and the final result would not be different. "I'm sorry, but I can't do anything."

"You..." Scadra looked at the enemy in front of him. He was calmer than Essin expected. "Do you know what he was doing?"

"I know." Essin replied. Whether Scadra is calm or excited, he is an old man without combat effectiveness. "Okay, you guys, please be optimistic about our Lord Scadra. Don't let him die. There are many things that he needs to hand over. If he dies, we will have to spend a lot of effort. Come with me... go over there and tell them that other people who resist except the Queen will be killed without mercy!"

The battle is far from over. Not far away, there are still metal collisions of hand-to-hand combat, shouts and painful howls of the wounded. Scattered battles occur everywhere in the entire palace. Fierce battles occur between the soldiers of the Imperial Guards who are loyal to their duties and the rebels from time to time, and the dead are in a mess.

Ashurufat led the little girl to the gate quickly. He had seen more than one dead person on the road and more than one battle. Some of the dead and wounded were unarmed servants, while some of the dead and wounded were armed guard soldiers. This had exceeded the scope of "riots" and was a real coup. Moreover, if he was not wrong, things were no longer remedied. He knew a long time ago that although Scadra was the chief supervisor of the palace and was in theory fully responsible for the internal management of the palace, he was actually constrained by all aspects (of course, this is easy to understand), and had to make compromises in many personnel arrangements.

In this situation, most of the time being is the foreshadowing arranged by others. Even Ashu Rufate admitted that there is no better weapon than a traitor in attacking solid strongholds.

The palace is very large. In addition to the three hundred guard soldiers, there are hundreds of male servants and maids who are almost the same as the two. The total number of people can be over thousands. It is precisely because of this number of people that the houses in the palace are seriously insufficient. However, anyone knows that most of the palace are gardens, grasslands, pavilions and towers, and the number of real houses is simply not worth mentioning compared to the area of ​​the palace. Therefore, the number of rebels attacking the palace at this moment will not be less than a thousand. However, after they penetrated into the strange palace, they had to disperse. Coupled with the cover of night, Ashrufate could easily avoid the chaos and pass through the gaps.

Ashu Rufate knew very well that for the rebels, the value of the palace itself was very limited, and the real value was the little queen around him.

The little girl was rarely calm at this time. To be honest, this is probably due to the fact that she and Ash Rufate had watched many dangerous scenes together, which made her courage hone. She followed Ash Rufate quickly on the way without making any unnecessary sounds.

There are only three gates in front of the palace. Under normal circumstances, only one of them is opened. It is difficult to explain how the rebels rushed into the palace, but there is a high possibility that they opened the other two gates. If Scadra could organize resistance here, they should be able to defend the last gate with the favorable terrain.

Ashu Rufate stopped.

"What's wrong, Ashu Rufate?" The little girl stopped following him. She didn't cry or panic. As for a little girl of such an age, she was already very brave.

"No... they controlled the gate." Ashrufat said. He had night vision that was far more than mortals, so he could see clearly the opening of the gate in the distance. The gate was closed and there was no sound of fighting there... They had controlled the entrance and exit of the palace. If Scadra was not dead, he had already fallen into the hands of the rebels. No one was seen nearby, but fools could guess that the rebels had arranged enough personnel here to prevent anyone from escaping.

It is self-evident that if you can arrange such a careful arrangement, such abundant troops, and have enough traitors, who will launch this coup.

The fires in the distance soared into the sky, and all the fires were in the noble area. It is estimated that at least ten mansions were ignited. But this was ignited, and more people were attacked.

"We must leave, but we cannot leave through the gate." Ashu Rufate said. Although the little girl saw nothing, she did not object to Ashu Rufate's opinion at all, and turned around and left after him.

Ashu Rufate quickly advanced along the corner of a palace, and at the moment of turning, he bumped into a team of people wearing torches. The first person was Essin. Both sides recognized each other immediately.

"Ash Rufate!" Essim was still wearing the armor of the Queen's bodyguard, and everyone behind him was dressed as an imperial guard. His eyes stayed at Ash Rufate for a second, and immediately turned to the little girl next to Ash Rufate.

"It's you, Ah, Her Majesty the Queen... You're fine, you're fine... It's really good. Ashu Rufate, leave with us quickly." Essim said with an anxious expression.

Ash Rufate pulled the little girl behind him with his hand. The expression on his face clearly shows that he was not deceived by the other party at all. Essin shouldn't have appeared here. If he had nothing to do with this rebellion, he shouldn't have appeared here at all. His appearance itself means everything.

"Oh... it's really not easy to cheat." Essin sighed. "Okay, Ashu Rufate, I really don't want my colleagues to fight each other."

While talking, a group of people suddenly arrived behind him. Ashu Rufate recognized Falysis under the flames, and his figure was very eye-catching. Now, Ashu Rufate and the little girl were surrounded in this narrow corner. He stepped back step by step, and the other party did not push him tightly because they knew he had no choice but to retreat. There was a small house with a door open next to it, which could be seen from the size of the room. Ashu Rufate finally retreated into the house, stood at the door, blocking the little girl in the house. His long sword was already in his hand, and another group of people came from nowhere. The three teams had more than fifteen people, holding the torch high, and the steel weapons in their hands reflected the fire, firmly surrounding the prey.

A face Ash Rufate knew appeared next to Essim, an official named Cleo. The reason why Ess Rufate knew him was because Cleo was one of Scadra's deputy, and the two sides had contact with each other.

The two soldiers thought they had seized the gap and snatched it from both sides. They immediately paid the price for their recklessness. Ashu Rufat's long sword flew left and right, killing the two people instantly on the spot.

The rest of the people hesitated for a moment.

"Ashu Rufate, give up," said Essin. "To be honest, I admire you very much... Your loyalty is touching, but now you don't have any chance. I know you are a clever warrior, but even if you can kill so many of us, you can't change anything."

While talking, he secretly made a gesture to his subordinates around him. On the periphery of the circle of people, with the protection of his companions, several soldiers began to lift the strings of their crossbow arrows.

"Ashurufat, I admire your courage and know that you are a clever warrior. But you must know that the building will collapse and not a single tree can support it!" Cleo said loudly.

This sentence had a significant effect on Ash Rufate, because a smile appeared on his face, which made the frontline retreat half a step. He was laughing, not the kind of smile that was not a slight smile or a forced smile, but a relaxed smile full of contempt.

"It also needs to see how thick the wood is." Ashu Rufat chuckled and replied.

"Ashrufat, no matter how good you are, you will only kill us, at most." Essim continued. "To us, these are insignificant losses. Don't talk about this, even if you are really invincible, you can break through the gate with the power of one person and kill all the road blockers... and take the queen to escape to the streets. What's the point of you? You are an amazing warrior. As long as you surrender, I swear that the Duke will not treat you badly."

"As it... is it Duke Byron?" Ashu Rufat said with a smile. "I used to think that guy looked idiot-looking, and now I'm sure his mind is exactly in line with his face."

"What do you mean by this? Do you think you can fight against the power of Lord Duke? Don't say that you can't rush out now, even if you rush out, can you raise your troops and finally defeat Lord Duke?" Clio said. "Do you think you are the Wild Sage Garunas?"

"Garunas? How is he worthy of comparing with me?" Ashu Rufat replied with a sneer. "Of course I am not Garunas, my name is Ashu Rufat, I can do anything!"
