A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 121. Chapter 121
The azure blue sea is endless, and its end forms a line with the fiery red sky.
The huge battleship was sailing on the sea, and countless big oars were rowing neatly and powerfully on the sea, setting off white waves.
The huge fleet split across the sea, the mighty lion flag with red background and gold patterns was flying in the sea breeze, and the red sunset in the sky shrouded the battleships with a fiery red shimmer.
That was the royal fleet of Aaron Landis, their large and majestic bodies slowly sailing on the sea.
Considering the injuries of the two Aaron Landis princes, one hand injury could not hold the reins, one with arrow wound on the back easily split, not suitable for riding a horse, but riding a carriage was too slow, so I finally chose Take the battleship back to the city.
In this way, the victory is stable, easy to heal, and the speed of return will not be too slow.
After sending away the Elson female warrior’s fleet, Gallan and his party boarded the ship about noon and set off. It’s just that the fiery red light projected diagonally is still quite dazzling, and everyone’s faces are flushed.
Even Gallan’s long golden hair seemed to be dyed a little scarlet.
At this moment, he was holding the warm soup medicine sent by the doctor girl, looking at the dark liquid, smelling the indescribable weird smell…He had a bitter face and looked pitiful.
However, no matter how little he looks pitiful, no one will help him at this moment. He still has to drink.
Gallan held his breath, raised his head, and poured the ugly soup medicine into his throat in one breath.
After the filling, he ate several candied fruits one after another to get rid of the bitter taste in his mouth, which relieved his breath.
He couldn’t help thinking, how did Heimos manage to let him feed the medicine bit by bit and swallow it without changing his face.
Especially for people like Heimos who always hates bitterness…
do not know.
Gallan shook his head in confusion, gave up thinking, resignedly took another bowl of warm soup medicine, and continued to perform his duty of feeding Heimos.
The rooms of him and Huimos are naturally the upper cabins of the warship with the best view and the most luxurious facilities.
Since getting on the boat, Huimos has been quietly staying in the room without much movement all afternoon. Even Garland wandered around on the deck of the giant battleship he was riding with curiosity in the afternoon, and probably took a look.
Both sides of the deck are dominated by crossbowmen, which are rotated in the morning and evening, and a small catapult is placed at intervals, while a large number of soldiers in charge of close combat stay in a huge cabin inside the battleship, sailing. You must wear armor and be ordered at any time.
This is the main configuration of warships in this era.
After all, in this era without gunpowder cannons, naval battles are mainly based on collisions with each other’s hulls and then hand-to-hand combat.
What made Garlan most emotional was that when he stood on the deck and looked down on the side of the ship, he saw countless huge oars, densely packed, three rows from top to bottom, the number is estimated to be nearly a thousand.
When so many huge oars are rowing neatly in a row, it looks spectacular visually when layers of snow-white waves are set off.
Carrying the medicine into the cabin of Huimos, Garland saw Huimos sitting by the window of the room at a glance.
Below the window of the cabin is a row of wooden benches extending along the wall of the hull, painted snow white, the edges are smooth and round, and the base is also carved with delicate patterns.
Himos sat sideways, stepping on it with one foot casually, one arm on the bent knee, and the snow-white bandage-wrapped hand hanging diagonally.
He tilted his head, and the strong wind from the sea blew his black hair like the night sky messily, exposing his brown forehead. The fiery red sunset shining obliquely from the horizon of the sea reflected on his cheeks, making the brown cheek on one side dyed a little red, but letting the cheek on the other side sink into shadow.
The slender body of Huimos sat by the window in a casual posture, his eyes glowing red against the setting sun, looking out at the boundless sea.
Eyelashes are slightly drooping, thin lips are slightly pursed, sword eyebrows are lightly frowned, I don’t know what I’m thinking.
When he was alone, it seemed that there was an indescribable atmosphere over him. Even if he had a beautiful face like sunset, it still made people feel unwilling to get close.
The pupils, which were clearly crimson like flames, did not have the heat of fire, but were cold, like flames from hell.
I don’t know if it was his own illusion, Gallan always felt that he felt a dignified breath from Heimos at this moment.
Moreover, this kind of breath seemed to gradually increase as the king’s city approached.
As soon as Gallan entered the room, Heimos’s attention was drawn, and he turned his head to look this way.
When the pupils reflected in the figure of the young man, the golden-red eyes became angry, just like a stone sculpture came to life in an instant, with the aura of a living person.
Huimos fixedly watched Garland walk towards him with the medicine, watched Garland sit down beside him, and took a spoonful to his mouth.
The golden red eyes looked at the boy without blinking.
After a while, Huimos did not open his mouth obediently as usual, but suddenly turned his head to avoid the silver spoon that was brought to his mouth.
“Don’t drink.”
His voice was clearly uncomfortable.
Garlan who held the silver spoon for a long time: “…”
Is this… losing your temper?
Why?
Did you finally find that the behavior of feeding and drinking medicine spoon by spoon is actually very bitter and stupid?
Of course, Gallan would never be stupid enough to say the above sentence.
He thought for a while, first put the soup medicine on the side table.
After spending so many years with Huimos, he is very clear about the character of this guy. Whether it is a big black dog or a big black wolf to describe Huimos, he can only coax him with the hair.
And, to be honest, in his opinion, Huimos is actually quite good.
And now, the reason why Huimos lost his temper like a child, Gallan could probably guess it too.
He is insensitive to feelings, but it doesn’t mean he is stupid.
Huimos was sulking, it must be because of the sentence the little Queen Elson said before she left, that he must give birth to his child.
If Garland thought that Heymos liked him very incredible at first, but now, even he has to admit that Heymos is not just talking about it.
After all, Huimos is not the kind of person who would rush into the flames for others…
To be honest, Gallan was already a little panicked.
After all, he thought at first that even if Hiimos liked him, as long as he refused, it was obvious that Hiimos’ feelings for him could not be dismissed by a few words.
“Emma is just over a dozen years old, and all those words are childish. What is more true between you and a child?”
Gallan said helplessly.
“What the child says is the truth.”
Huimos said, “When she grows up, she will definitely come to you.”
Compared with adults who are accustomed to disguising themselves with lies, children are more attached to their own obsessions.
Because what the children say is what they really want from the heart.
He turned his head and stared at Garlan.
“Will you let her give birth to your baby?”
Gallan choked.
“I said you…”
Seeing Huimos’ serious eyes, he was a little bit dumbfounded for a while.
“Even if she is serious, but in my opinion, she is just a child, how could I have any strange thoughts about children? I am not a pervert.”
He sighed and said, “And…”
Moreover, when Xiao Wangnv grew up and came to look for him, he had already left the royal city and didn’t know where to go on his journey.
Maybe he even had a wife at that time.
Although it is common for a man in this world to have several lovers, he does not intend to do that kind of unscrupulous things. As long as he has a loved one, he will definitely treat her wholeheartedly.
“and?”
Huimos still stared at him, his eyes deep and sharp, as if searching his heart, to judge whether what he said was true or false.
I was thinking about leaving the royal city with all my heart. Naturally, I couldn’t tell it in front of Huimos.
Gallan thought for a moment, and said, “Moreover, she is not the type I like. Even if she grows up, I won’t be with her.”
Although Xiao Wang’s appearance is very cute, she will definitely be a big beauty when she grows up, but he remembers that Kaihuos said that Emma’s martial talent is not bad, and she must be a powerful Elson warrior in the future.
… He doesn’t want a girlfriend whose force is against the sky at all.
Probably what he said really came from the heart, and Huimos’s expression eased a little bit.
“You have to remember what you said.”
The golden-red eyes stared at Garlan unblinkingly, and there was a faintly heart-palpitating thing hidden in the eyes.
Huimos looked at Garlan deeply.
There was something indescribable in those eyes, which made Garlan’s throat a little tight for some reason.
“Gallan, don’t lie to me.”
He heard the man staring at him say.
“I will not allow you to deceive me.”
The deep voice seemed very soft, but every word in the words was extremely firm and powerful.
Every syllable spit out from Huimos’ mouth seemed to have a mighty force, and it was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.
Inexplicably, a sense of crisis emerged spontaneously.
The sixth sense is telling Gallan that the danger is looming.
But at this moment, he was watched by those golden red eyes, but he couldn’t move.
The man’s eyes were shocking to the extreme.
He felt like a prey being stared at by a terrifying beast with a powerfully aggressive gaze.
The man’s hand stretched over, and the fingers wrapped in the snow-white bandage stroked his cheek.
The low voice rang in his ears again.
“Remember, don’t let anyone touch you.”
The man stared at him and said.
“Don’t let anyone come closer to you than me.”
The motion of Himos’ fingertips stroking his cheek was extremely gentle, and the voice of his speech was also gentle.
However, there is something terrifying hidden in the sound of the calm voice.
Huimos said softly, “Otherwise, I can’t guarantee what I will do.”
Garlan’s heart beat violently.
The terrible thing hidden under the soft voice shocked him for a moment.
no.
he thinks.
It can’t go on like this.
The sixth sense in the dark was warning him.
Must escape.
It’s too late if you don’t run away.
If Gallan was just a little panicked about Heimos’s attitude before saying this, at this moment, he was already panicked.
He is indeed very grateful to Heimos who saved him, but that does not mean that he is willing to accept Heimos’ feelings in that respect.
Even if gender issues are aside, for this person, even though they have already settled their grievances in this life, it is still impossible for him to like this person.
After all, he had died in this man’s hands four times.
Death, even if only once, is unforgettable.
The boy lowered his eyes, and his fine eyelashes covered his eye sockets, making it difficult to see the look in his eyes at the moment.
He pursed his mouth.
At this moment, he made up his mind in his heart.
After returning to the King City, as soon as Brother King Camos returned, he would tell Brother King all his thoughts.
He must leave the palace and leave the city as soon as possible.
He had to stay away from Huimos, the sooner the better.
Before everything is out of control.
…………
After three days and three nights of sailing, the royal fleet arrived at the port of the royal city in the morning.
Because it was downwind when I came back, the speed should be slightly faster.
The lion flag with gold patterns on the red background fluttered in the wind, and the giant battleship slowly moved into the harbor and berthed in the dock.
The huge and heavy wooden ladder was tied up by the cable, and was slowly pulled out by the people on the shore dragged by the cable, and lay on the shore.
When Garlan walked down from the wooden ladder, he looked up and saw the crowd standing on the shore obviously waiting for them.
It seemed that it was someone who came to greet them, but Garlan looked at it and felt something was wrong, because the crowd made no sound.
A few noble ministers took the lead, and they stood on the shore with their guards, their faces looked rather serious.
“His Royal Highness, the situation is a bit wrong.”
Kehos’s low voice came from behind.
Immediately after the little fat man also whispered.
“Yeah, that’s not right, the faces of those old guys are ugly, as if they were stabbed several times.”
One hand stretched over and grabbed Garlan’s wrist.
Garlan turned his head subconsciously, and saw the face of Heimos beside him.
He was taken aback.
Because it was the first time he saw Heimos’ face so cold.
“Remember, wait no matter what happens, don’t do anything.”
When Hiemos said this, he let go of his hand and walked quickly, before he stepped ashore.
Garlan, who was behind, was still standing on the wooden ladder. Before he could react, he saw the crowd on the shore step aside, and a line of knights in fire-red armor came from the crowd.
The flaming red armor style and the lion badge printed on the knight’s shoulder armor made Garland startled.
Royal Knights.
The knights that belong to King Camos completely, all the knights in the group are deadly loyal to King Camos.
They will not show up in front of people easily.
When King Camos went out to fight, they were responsible for guarding the royal city and had great authority.
They are not afraid of anyone and are ruthless.
No matter who it is and how high its status is, as long as there is a possibility of harming the king’s power, they will remove it without mercy.
“Please forgive me for being rude, Prince Huimos.”
The leading knight commander bowed expressionlessly and saluted Huimos.
“You have taken away the soldier talisman sealed in the inner palace without permission from King Camos, and used the soldier talisman to mobilize the army without authorization. This behavior has greatly offended the kingship.”
He said in a voiceless voice.
“Now I am arresting you in the name of the Royal Knights Guard. Please do not resist, otherwise, I have the right to use force against you.”
The words of the knight commander stunned Garlan, who was still standing on the gangway.
Seeing that the royal knights wanted to take Huimos away, he subconsciously stretched out his hand and ran down.
“Wait–”
Before he could finish a word, Heimos, who had been leaving with the king’s knight quietly from the beginning to the present, suddenly turned his head back.
At that glance, he forced Garlan’s remaining words back.
[Wait no matter what happens, don’t do anything. 】
Garland stood there blankly, watching Heimos’s back disappear before his eyes.
His mind was blank at this moment.
Without the permission of King Camos, Huimos took away the soldier talisman and mobilized the army.
…This is why Heimos was able to lead his troops to the city of Tozes in four days? !
