Tomb Survival: Evolve from Skeleton

silence.

There was silence between heaven and earth, as if even war horses did not dare to neigh.

The cold winter wind made people's fingers stiff, and the blood in their blood vessels froze.

King Fritz felt the ice slag in the air follow his breath and poured into his lungs, so cold that no amount of fire seeped out from the cracks in his bones, the bad premonition came true, The last bit of hope sank slowly into the abyss.

"Say."

King Fritz's icy blue eyes fixed on the cavalryman.

"what happened?"

The cavalryman took off his helmet and slammed heavily on the snow. James didn't realize until then that he was actually still young. The taciturn knight along the way had a childish round face.

"Lord Lansman broke the first siege of the city, but the city wall was damaged and could no longer be defended. Lord Lansman is determined to intercept the second batch of troops of the Jesk rebel army..."

The young knight's voice was hoarse, as if his words were bloody, "Lord Lansman died in battle, the general swore to defend the city to the death, let us tell His Majesty—Dakori, he is about to recover!"

Lord Lansman died in battle, and Dakori recovered.

Like two boulders suddenly crashing into the calm lake, the army couldn't help but burst into exclamations.

Lord Lansman...

die.

King Fritz's Adam's apple rolled, he clenched his teeth and raised his head.

It was as if the tiredness of two days and one night of rapid march suddenly turned up, and the world in front of me seemed to suddenly turn black, and everything turned gray.

Tick.

The sound of blood dripping seemed to be heard again in the ear, and the soft, breathless breathing became extremely difficult in an instant.That drop of blood...

It was the blood of Lansman, the captain of the royal guard, and the blood of the person he relied on most.

What is surging in his heart?What is it that freezes him a little bit?
He used to have nothing, and when he returned to the Kingdom of Fritz, he shouldered the fate of a country and a family.But he finally had something.How much does he own?How much can he lose?Should he weep?Should he roar or growl?Who will teach him to roar Who will teach him to roar?

In his past years, everyone wanted him to die. He struggled to survive in the hatred and coldness of the world. He was no longer able to cry or be weak. Now who will tell him what to do when he is so sad? Let the tears flow down?
Too long a silence.

A cavalryman stepped out of the ranks and came to King Fritz's side.

He is the lieutenant of the royal cavalry and an old cavalryman who is familiar with Lansman, the captain of the royal guard.

When King Fritz decided to carry out military reforms and form a new royal family, Lansman, the captain of the royal guard, was still worried that the first princess Rubia Fritz was too young and inexperienced, so he appointed him as the The lieutenant general of this royal cavalry.

The deputy general walked to King Fritz, who was looking in the direction of the castle inside the royal army.

When he saw King Fritz for the first time, the lieutenant almost thought that King Fritz would whip his horse at any moment and rush to the place where Lansman, the captain of the royal guard, might be buried.

The knuckles of King Fritz's hand holding the whip turned cold and pale, and the whip was still not swung out in the end.

"His Majesty……"

The lieutenant spoke in a low voice. At that moment, he felt that what he saw in front of him was not the monarch of the Fritz Kingdom, but just an ordinary person who lost the last barrier.

What choice will the monarch who has lost his "iron wall" make?What choice should I make?

"withdraw!"

King Fritz lowered his head, his face was covered by the shadow of his armor, and the always proud and powerful monarch looked like a sad ordinary person at this moment.

But his voice was clearly King Fritz.

He is the most admired person of Lansman, the captain of the royal guard...

King Fritz too!

Anyone can cry, anyone can suffer, anyone can be desperately angry, but not King Fritz.

The army rioted.

The cavalry did not expect such an order from King Fritz.

Lansman, the captain of the royal guard, died in battle. Wouldn't King Fritz avenge Lansman?
"I said - withdraw!"

King Fritz growled like a young lion suddenly enraged.

"Withdraw to the pass inside the center line!"

The lieutenant looked silently at King Fritz who lowered his head.

He remembered that he once asked Lansman, the captain of the royal guard, why he had been guarding King Fritz for more than ten years.

At that time, Lansman, the captain of the royal guard, said, "Because he is the hope of the Fritz royal family, he will be a real emperor."

The lieutenant didn't understand at the time.

Now he understands.

Withdrawing troops now is what they really should do.

He knew Lansman, the captain of the Royal Guard too well, and he knew the concept of the royal cavalry commanded by Lansman, the captain of the Royal Guard.

But Lansman, the captain of the royal guard, died in battle.And the castle in the royal family's military fell, and it was meaningless for them to move forward.

The galloping vanguard cavalry did not carry any siege equipment. Not only could they not take the castle back from the enemy, they might even have to face a large number of undead and other enemy reinforcements that had arrived.

This is a battle that is likely to be lost for the long-running royal cavalry.

What the military situation ahead is, everything is unknown, and the soldiers are not in danger. This is what any general who commands the army must do.

Lansman, the captain of the royal guard, fell, which was a huge disaster for the entire Fritz Kingdom.At this time, they cannot afford a second catastrophic defeat, which will plunge the entire counter-insurgency war into a downturn.

and so--

They can only withdraw.

Withdrew to the inner fortress city closest to them now.Stand there and wait for the follow-up troops to arrive.

This is what they should really do.

The lieutenant took a deep breath, suppressing the sourness and sadness.He took one last look at King Fritz, turned his horse, and returned to the army.

King Fritz stood numbly in the ice and snow, watching the cavalry under his command, the forward turned into the rear, and the rear turned into the forward, and slowly left in the direction they came from in the snow.

King Fritz stood still and did not move.

Soon, King Fritz was the only one left on the snow slope.

He suddenly hissed and laughed.

No tears, no weeping, only hoarse, suppressed laughter.

Anger and sorrow surged through his veins, stirring the madness of the ancient Fritz royal family, his dead father, his dead uncle, all his dead ancestors...their will revived in him.

King Fritz raised his head in the north wind, looked at the vast sky, and squeezed out a voice through his teeth.There was so much blood in his voice, as if a terrible monster had been released from his heart, and now the bloodthirsty monster was making its roar.

The "iron wall" of the kingdom fell into the bloody mud and was replaced by a new bloody king.

"Look at—"

"I want the lion king's flag to fly across the mainland, the glory of the never-setting sun to last forever, and the surrender of all the people who pass by the golden carriage!"

He wants the long-cherished wish of Lansman, the captain of the Royal Guards, to come true!

Let the glory of the Fritz royal family revive on this land!
Those who killed Lansman, the captain of the royal guard, no matter who they are, he will cut off their heads, crush their sinful bones, and make their souls kneel in the grave forever!
