Finally he found Eloline and Licaro in a restaurant. It was noon and the two were having lunch in the restaurant. Scullin wanted to greet them immediately, but he remembered what he had seen before, so he just watched quietly. Ai Luolin is worthy of being a dragon. She has a big appetite, so she chose this buffet restaurant. The crying restaurant owner in the future can already be foreseen, but Eloline and Licaro are not so drastic. They only go to each buffet restaurant once. So these restaurants won't go out of business because of Eloline. "Come on, open your mouth." Licaro raised the spoon. "what--" Eloline opened her mouth obediently and let Licaro put the food into her mouth. This kind of feeding happened frequently, and both Eloline and Licaro enjoyed it very much.
Scullin, who was observing secretly, felt something strange, but he couldn't tell whether this was normal or not. Is it normal for same-sex sisters to feed each other? So Scullin replaced the feeding scene of his sisters with that of himself and his older brother, and then tried to think about it. vomit! But, maybe it’s really that men and women are different. Scullin felt that if his eldest brother came to feed him, he would definitely chop the disgusting guy with his sword. Looking at the table full of food and Eloline's little mouth that never stopped eating, Scullin's expression gradually became surprised. Is this new sister of mine a dragon? How can humans have such a horrible appetite? Moreover, Eloline's belly was very flat, and the food seemed to have entered another dimension. Compared to Eloline, Licaro eats very slowly and looks much more elegant than her. Scullin's stomach also started to growl; he hadn't had lunch yet. So he walked into the restaurant and asked the owner to book a seat at the table next to the two of them. The two people who were concentrating on eating did not notice that the second brother had come until Likalo accidentally looked around and discovered his presence. "Second brother, are you eating here too?" "I just arrived." Scullin wiped his mouth with a napkin, then looked at Likalo: "How is the injury?" "It's completely healed." "Well, then I have nothing to worry about." Scullin was also used to Licaro's recovery ability.
Then he looked at Eloline again: "Sister, you have a big appetite." After hearing all this, Eloline lowered her head shyly: "Not bad, not bad." She just eats slightly more than humans. Scullin smiled and said to her: "If you have time, get to know your brother better. I like you very much." Likalo was a little wary of this. She warned Scullin: "Brother, don't attack Lin just because you have no blood relationship with her." "This……" Scullin was stunned. Is this how he looked in his sister's eyes? Even though he is over 30 years old and still unmarried, Eloline is still a minor. No matter how beastly he is, he would not harm Eloline. Besides, he didn't have that idea in the first place. "Sister, you are too worried. Your second brother is not that kind of person!" While explaining this to himself, Scullin also found it very interesting. My own sister cares so much about my new sister, it is definitely not an ordinary relationship. Thinking about their kiss before, Scullin felt that...they might be lovers. I just don’t know whether my father and mother know about it. Scullin had no intention of complaining to his parents. He just let everything take its course. Anyway, he could see that the relationship between his two sisters was really good. He also read the letter his father wrote to him, in which he was very stern in his instructions to treat his new sister like a family member. Even her father said so, which meant that Eloline had been fully recognized by her parents. As for Scullin…he actually acknowledged Eloline when Licaro was attacked. At that time, Eloline's feelings could not be disguised. Regardless of whether there was any other secret relationship between her and Licaro, her feelings for Licaro were real. Scullin was actually quite happy to have such a lovely sister. From the conversation with my sisters, I learned that they would leave the imperial city tomorrow and travel to other places. "It's a pity that your eldest brother is still stationed in another country, otherwise you could still meet him." Although the eldest brother will be transferred back to China soon, he will not be able to catch up with his younger sisters' travel schedule. "It doesn't matter, let's wait until big brother comes back." Licaro was also looking forward to her elder brother's return. Ever since the Empire defeated the Five-Nation Alliance that year, her elder brother had been staying in another country as an occupying force and had not returned for many years. Eloline had heard Licaro talk about her oldest brother, who seemed to be the most like him among Wilfen's children. Of course, the most similar refers to personality... In short, in Eloline's opinion, he might be a very difficult person to get along with.
Suddenly, Scullin remembered that he had something important to say today: "You have heard the news that the Empire is going to attack the Kingdom of Lombard, right?" "Ah." Lika Luo nodded, this matter was already known to everyone. "So when you travel next time, try to visit cities in the heart of the empire, and don't get too close to cities on the eastern border." After all, when the war breaks out, the border areas become the frontline areas. Although no one thought that the Empire would be pushed to the border by the Lombards, as the war progressed, there would definitely be a lot of spy infiltration and sabotage behind enemy lines in the border areas. All in all, it's not peaceful. "Don't worry, brother. I will protect me." "Oh? Lin, are you strong?" Scullin was a little interested because he couldn't see Eloline's overall strength. Maybe Eloline was hiding it by some means. "Nothing special. I'm just a magician." Eloline couldn't give an accurate answer. She couldn't say that her true form was a dragon, right? Now that she is in the imperial city, if she changes back to her original form, she will definitely be able to cause considerable damage while humans are unable to react. But it's not necessary. Under the magic of transformation, Eloline's physical fitness is still far superior to that of ordinary people, but there is some gap with the dragon itself. Scullin probably couldn't imagine that Eloline's petite body contained such great power. "If I have time, I really want to learn your strength." Scullin felt a little regretful, and said: "I will be very busy next time, so I don't have time to play with you." "It's okay, brother. Keep up the good work." Although Likalo acted as if she was very considerate of her second brother, she actually hoped that this light bulb second brother would leave as soon as possible. PS: There are 3 left. After the extra chapter is finished, how about I post a 4000-word chapter? This way it will be easier to write and you won’t find it short. Chapter 2 - Disaster 075 Attack Hindered In the center of the plain, near the river, there is a fortress of the Kingdom of Lombard. Due to its unique geographical location, this fortress is also a port, and many merchant ships travel along the river. The Empire chose this place as its first target of attack. As the horn sounded, the Imperial Expeditionary Force began to advance. After the invention and application of gunpowder, the empire invented a siege weapon that was more efficient than the catapult - the cannon. Of course, this early artillery was not very powerful. It fired ordinary iron shells and caused damage entirely through impact force. The Empire had also considered using magic technology to enhance the power of artillery shells, but due to manufacturing costs, no breakthrough has been made so far.
However, the power of this iron round bullet has completely surpassed the stones fired by the original catapult. The most important thing is that the artillery can be fired horizontally and can also cause damage in close combat. Moreover, compared with the trebuchet, the cannon had a higher rate of fire. The commanders trained by the Imperial Military Academy believed that in siege warfare, when ammunition was plentiful, they should try to launch long-range strikes to deplete the enemy's manpower before engaging in battle. This can also reduce casualties on their side. Therefore, when the Imperial Expeditionary Force's artillery bombarded the Lombard Fortress to pieces, the buglers blew the horn and the entire army began to attack. There was no need to use siege towers to climb the city walls or battering rams to destroy the city gates, because part of the fortress's walls had already collapsed in the previous bombardment. The empire's fortress would not be so fragile. It can only be said that the Kingdom of Lombard was not a strong country and its construction technology was not very good. The garrison in the Lombard Fortress suffered heavy casualties in the previous shelling. The siege commander originally thought that he would not encounter much resistance, but he did not expect that the subsequent developments would completely exceed his expectations. These Lombard soldiers showed unprecedented fighting spirit. They were not afraid of pain and fought desperately to kill the enemy even with broken hands and feet. What's worse, after being slashed by countless swords, he was still crawling forward, dragging his bloody body. A sense of fear spread among the imperial army. These enemies were like zombies summoned by necromancers, completely unaware of pain. Even the most well-trained army would collapse if the casualty ratio exceeded a certain number. However, none of these Lombard soldiers retreated. At this rate, they would fight to the last man. The imperial commander did not believe that the soldiers of the small country of Lombard would have such a strong fighting will. Moreover, the imperial invasion had not yet caused deep hatred, so there was no need for them to do so. The commander who noticed the abnormality wanted to order the attacking troops to retreat, but the Lombard soldiers kept chasing them, and the attacking troops were completely unable to escape from the battle. There was no choice but to continue fighting until the last defender was killed. After the battle, the Church of Light team that followed the army investigated the corpses and finally discovered that they had an evil aura and their minds were controlled. So the imperial expeditionary force stopped its advance, built camps and fortifications on the spot, and conveyed the news to the imperial city. When the news reached the imperial city, the entire imperial high-ranking officials were shocked. Could it be that all the people in the entire Lombard Kingdom were under control? If that were the case, the Empire's expedition would lose all its meaning. Without killing all the Lombards, it would be impossible to occupy the Lombard Kingdom. But if we kill all the Lombards and face a lot of empty cities, do we have to migrate the empire's population there? What's more, Emperor Saporta is not a fool. If the empire really massacres all the people of Lombardy, it will definitely be charged with crimes against humanity. War is war, and its purpose is to seize benefits. Killing all the people in a hostile country has never happened in history. Emperor Saporta does not want his name to be known to people across the continent in that way. At this moment, Pope Boyle, who received the news, came to the palace to meet Emperor Saporta and brought a proposal. Pope Boyle is the leader of the entire Church of Light and enjoys extremely high prestige within the church. The empire is now facing the problem of the cult in the Kingdom of Lombard, so the Pope naturally has a say. Although Pope Boyle has a head full of white hair, his steps are still steady and his spirit is very young. "Your Majesty, I propose to send the most elite members of the church to infiltrate the Kingdom of Lombard and directly decapitate the founder of the God of Hope Sect." "Oh? Do you know who founded that evil cult?" "Yes, her name is Miphia, and she was the daughter of a nobleman in the Kingdom of Lombard."
"So what is the source of her power? She should be human, right?" "Let me explain it to Your Majesty slowly, but before that, please read the information I have prepared." Pope Boyle handed the books prepared in advance to Emperor Saporta. This book bears the traces of time and reveals the vicissitudes of history. Emperor Sapota opened it very carefully, for he was afraid that the book would fall apart. The contents of the book were records from ten thousand years ago. Emperor Sapota was a little surprised because there are very few records of things before ten thousand years ago in current human history books. Emperor Sapota continued reading. The book recorded a terrible disaster - a disaster spread by the God of Disaster.
