Mercenaries Under the Sky

From the winter of January 25th, the empire enters the "Colorful Night"-the Royal Capital is full of lanterns all night, with the Royal Palace as the core, and the eight main roads of the Royal Capital are lit with bright red, orange, yellow, goose green, indigo, azure, The lights and candles of eight colors of light purple and pink powder, the end of the main road is the city wall, and the city wall also lights the same eight-color lanterns according to the gossip. In the white snow, infinite lights jumped.

Fifteen years ago, several magicians cast floats in the Caixiao night chat, and rose to a height of 400 meters overlooking the imperial capital. They were shocked by the beauty of snow night. From that night, every time before and after the Caixiao night, the imperial float The reels are all sold out, especially the reels made by high-level magicians above the magician can float in the air for about an hour, and can rise to 600 meters high. Such a reel is calculated by more than one hundred gold coins.

At 6:00 pm on January 29th of the 5th year of the magic calendar, when the last ray of light fell from Xishan, the eight gates, eight small and sixteen gates of the imperial capital simultaneously lit colorful lights.

"Tao-Dao-Dao, Dao, Dao, Dao ..."

A series of salutes instantly hit a point, 108 gates per city gate, 72 gates per small city gate, and more than 1,600 salutes beat the walls of the imperial city into daylight.

"Congratulations on the happy birthday of His Majesty the King!"

"Congratulations to His Majesty the King Long live without borders!"

"Congratulations to His Majesty the King forever!"

"Congratulations to His Majesty the King forever!"

At least one million people participated in the spontaneous and unanimous blessings of the people at each birthday color festival. The sound started from the east to the south and then to the west and finally to the north.

"Woo-oo-oo-" The sharp horn sounded on the square in front of the palace, and the voice of the people quickly disappeared. After ten horns, 30 imperial military officers shouted in the atrium of the palace: "Your Majesty's Edict Respectfully invite the representatives of the people to enter the palace. "95 representatives of the people from all provinces of the empire entered the palace.

"Your Majesty's decree, I respectfully invite the emperors to enter the palace."

"Your Majesty's decree, I respectfully invite the emissaries of the kingdoms to enter the palace."

"Your Majesty's decree, I respectfully invite representatives of the Magic Guild to enter the palace."

"Your Majesty's decree, I respectfully invite the imperial nobles into the palace."

The palace covers an area of ​​1,500 acres, of which the Great Council Hall covers an area of ​​5 acres. Only on the day of birthday, this hall is not empty. Hundreds of tables are neatly arranged in twelve vertical and fifty-eight horizontal lines, and behind each table are full of people.

At the forefront are the representatives of the people. This is the latest regulation after Redstone assumed the throne, with the supremacy of Li Min; followed by the envoys of various countries, then the civil martial arts ministers in Beijing, and then the head of the imperial nobles.

The Redstone Emperor was wearing an ocher yellow robe, a mountain helmet on top of his head, and he was sitting behind the case with a smile on his face: "Empires, friends, friends of all nations-" said the emperor, while raising his wine glass in his hand: "Wish Eminor's mainland is in good weather and Li Min is happy; I wish all empires, prosperity of the national games, and peace forever. "

More than 600 guests from all over the room raised their wine glasses at the same time: "I wish Your Majesty longevity and boundless happiness forever."

"Play music--" Musicians from the four provinces of the southern empire gently struck the silk bamboo in their hands.

The court attendants kept sending new dishes from both sides of the grand ballroom to the table, rainbow trout roe from the west coast of the mainland, deep sea octopus from the east coast of the mainland, fresh fruits from the south of the empire, flying birds from the north of the empire, from the north The bear paws of the Federation, as long as they can think of delicacies continue to be served from the kitchen. People ’s representatives kept presenting the local souvenirs to the Redstone Emperor through the internal servants. His Majesty the King passed gifts to the princes around him to visit and praised the richness of the products.

At the door, a person with the title of Captain of the Imperial Guard came in and whispered a few words to the inner attendant. The inner attendant hesitated a little, and then came to Marquis Chifeng Feng, general of Gyeonggi, and whispered. Chi Hanfeng frowned slightly, and got up and walked out. Daqingshan and Chi Aotian who attended the banquet as the children of Chimen behind him also slightly faintly heard "City South ... Fire ...", just wanted to stand Follow me out. Lord Marquis threw a word low: "Chi Aotian stays here ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ Don't move. Daqingshan come with me." The boy in black stood up.

Just outside the grand banqueting hall, there were three or four Guards officers outside the door. The first one was the guards squadron leader: "My Excellency, the Imperial South City has too many residents to participate in the celebration. Overturned, causing a fire. "

"Oh? Are there casualties?" Fear of what is coming, the reason Red Emperor was reluctant to hold large-scale celebrations, especially to hold birthdays, is to be afraid of these accidents. As a soldier in Gyeonggi, I also know this, Chi Hanfeng It is even bigger.

"It's not clear, we have gathered a sword battalion squad in the southern region to rescue the fire, and two other mobile squads to evacuate the residents. More than 20 clergy of the Holy See cooperate with us to save people." The captain's face was also full Worried.

"Oh ..." Chi Hanfeng said with a hint of relief. There were clerics who believed in the light to provide on-site ambulance. The number of residents' casualties would be reduced a lot. If it is to burn a few houses, it is not a big deal. The Empire has a special department. Responsible for the settlement of the victims.

"My Excellency, we are afraid that the fire will spread. Can we transfer two teams from other urban areas to help?" The Imperial Guard now has only six squadron captains and two squadron captains. Each squadron captain now bears the heavy responsibility of the previous captain. .

"Still transfer a team from the palace, and now the palace has the least things. There is only one squadron in charge, and 500 from the Xuanqing Land Dragon Mercenary Corps are drawn into the duty team."

"Yes, sir."

"Remember: I, the King, do not want any casualties among ordinary residents today. Make every effort to ensure the safety of the residents." As General Gyeonggi, he will definitely be discovered by a person with long-term absence from the seat. Affecting the banquet atmosphere, Chi Hanfeng hurriedly confessed two sentences and took Daqingshan back to the hall.
