Chapter 5: Unknown Situation

The next day, early morning.

It was still dark, so much so that the mist outside, and a loud noise awakened Enzo from his sleep.

Putting on his shirt, he got up and walked to the window. Enzo looked out of the castle. On the street between the two rows of trees, a large number of horse-drawn carriages escorting supplies appeared. There were many cavalry around, who seemed to be dressed as Kaiyuan City. People.

"Daisy!" Enzo shouted to the door.

"What's the matter, master." Daisy hurried over.

"What's going on outside? Why are those cavalry coming back?" Enzo asked.

"I heard from the footmen, it seems that the war is over." Daisy said softly, "O'Queen and Lord Tyron returned to the castle last night, and the cavalry followed his orders to plunder the war. The materials will be gradually returned to Kaiyuan City."

"It's over?" Enzo frowned slightly, with an ominous premonition rising in his heart, "How could the war be over if the Great Wolf City has not been breached?"

Giant Wolf City relies on towering walls, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if O'Queen personally takes action, it is difficult to break in a short period of time. According to the previous strategy, Kaiyuan City obviously intends to cut off the resource supply of Giant Wolf City first, and then siege. It is the safest way to make it self-defeating, but it takes at least one month.

The war hurriedly ended, and the army withdrew to Kaiyuan City. Obviously O'Queen had given up Great Wolf City.

"The battle situation has developed to such a degree, O'Queen is sure to win the Wolf City." Enzo thought in his heart, his eyes flickering, "but now he suddenly chooses, obviously as a last resort, combined with yesterday's adjustment of Tyronn. The secret order to go to the battlefield, all of this is probably related to what happened during the attack on Wolf's Tail City!"

"Father is there, I'm going to see him." Enzo raised his head and said solemnly.

"Okay, I'm going to report now." Daisy exited the room, but after a while, she brought back Paris.

"Where is father?" Enzo frowned slightly.

"Master Tyron and Master O'Queen are in the underground training ground." Pariste bowed and replied, "Last night, Master O'Queen told me after returning, that he and Master Tyron will retreat in the training room. No one should be disturbed. During this time, Kaiyuan City's affairs, large and small, are handled by you."

"I will handle it?" Enzo asked a little strangely, ": Did Xavier not come back?"

As for his son's abilities, O'Queen couldn't be more clear. He would not rest assured that he would hand over Kaiyuan City to Enzo. In the past, Kaiyuan City was generally managed by Xavier when he led the army to fight or encircle bandits. , That handsome young man not only has amazing talent, but also convincing ability.

"Master Xavier leads a part of the army and surrounds the city of Wolf." Paris leaned slightly, and then said, "Master O'Queen knows that you are not familiar with the management of Kaiyuan City, so he ordered me to assist until You can handle government affairs alone."

"That's it." Enzo was silent, his thoughts changed.

Ordering Xavier to continue to besiege Great Wolf City is obviously O'Queen's unwillingness to give up a handy victory. However, after the unsuccessful attack on Wolffur Town, he secretly transferred Tyronn, who was in Kaiyuan City, to the battlefield to meet him, and then returned to the castle. Even more directly shut himself into the training ground.

A series of abnormal actions made Enzo faintly disturbed.

"Could it be that he was injured on the battlefield?" Enzo calculated in his heart, his eyes flickering, "But who can wound O'Queen?"

In the entire icy plain, the former owner of Great Wolf City, "Conrad Ice Wolf", once had the title of the most powerful knight. However, in front of the battlefield, he was killed by O'Queen alone. Next, who can defeat or even seriously hurt O'Queen?

"How was his condition when you saw your father?" Enzo raised his head and asked solemnly.

"Although I only had a brief contact with Lord O'Queen for a while, I am pretty sure that the Lord was not injured." Pariste seemed to see Enzo's thoughts and said affirmatively, "Although I am only a knight, my perception ability is still possible. When I saw Lord O'Queen, his body was unscathed, his vitality was thick and stable, and even his vindictive spirit was full and overflowing, and he didn't look injured at all."

"Are you sure?" Enzo frowned.

"Very sure!" Pariste was categorical, and then said with a smile on his face, "I know what you think, but Lord O'Queen did not get hurt. On the contrary, according to my guess, the Lord hurriedly ended the war, it is very likely that it was another one. Kind of reason."

"Oh?" Enzo raised his eyebrows.

"I have followed Master O'Queen for about 20 years. When he was a knight, I took the post of retinue." Pariste raised his chest, with a slightly proud tone. "In the past twenty years, I have been fortunate enough to witness the Lord's On the journey, from the knight to the great knight, and then from the great knight to the lord of Kaiyuan City, especially when following the adults to encircle and suppress the bandits in recent years, I can deeply feel how terrifying the adult's strength seems to have reached a critical point."

"And this time the war ended in a hurry, probably because Lord O'Queen is about to break through the realm and become a great Sky Knight.

"Sky Knight?" Enzo's heart moved, feeling that Pariste's calculation was reasonable.

"Yes, Sky Knight!" Pariste's face was reddened, and his tone was frantic. "Master O'Queen has an extraordinary talent, and he can definitely do it with his abilities. As long as the adult becomes a sky knight, he will take the wolf city. Not to mention, even if you want to unify the five cities and become the king of the cold land, it is easy!" Enzo was silent, thinking in his heart.

"There is too little information to jump to conclusions." A moment later, Enzo shook his head. "Anyway, you will know after his father leaves the customs. Let's solve the remaining problems after the war."

"You are right." Paris leaned slightly, calming his emotions.

"First, count the casualties of this war, and then count the spoils."

Enzo thought slightly, and said solemnly.

"Yes, master."

Paris took the order and said, "I will prepare a summary of war information and report it to you before noon at the latest."

"Well, as soon as possible."

Paris bowed to salute and exited the room.
