Chapter 692: Carol Is Pregnant (Part 1)
Avalon Fortress, Michael Knights headquarters, command room.
After the third day of battle, Su Cheng, who was sitting in the command room, listened to today's casualty report just like he did the previous two days.
The person in charge of reporting casualties to Su Cheng today was not Willy, but Alyssa.
Because the mounds of Hiran's army were put into battle, the Michael Knights suffered more casualties today than the previous two days.
After listening to Alyssa's report, Su Cheng frowned.
"Is it a mound? It's really difficult to handle..."
After muttering like this, Su Cheng began to think about ways to counter the mound.
The only way Su Cheng could think of now was to use trebuchets and siege crossbows to focus fire on these mounds.
These mounds are made of mud and cannot withstand attacks from boulders and arrows.
But even if you use trebuchets and siege crossbows to focus fire on these mounds, the effect will not be very good.
Because the accuracy of trebuchets and siege crossbows is very poor, after shooting the boulders and arrows, where they can hit depends entirely on God's will.
And even if these mounds are knocked down, the Xilan Army can quickly build more mounds.
When Su Cheng was thinking about whether there was any more efficient way to counter the mound, Alyssa, who was standing next to Su Cheng and had been hesitant from the beginning, finally had a look of determination on her face. .
As if he had finally made up his mind, he said to Su Cheng:
"Su Cheng."
"Um?"
"Well... I think it's time for you to go home..."
Speaking of this, Alyssa paused.
Then he continued:
"I went home last night."
"Kylor didn't say anything, but Alan said she missed you."
"Also, Alan has some complaints against you, because you have been back to Avalon Fortress for so many days, and you haven't even gone home to see them. You have been staying at the Knights headquarters."
After listening to Alyssa's words, Su Cheng's breath suffocated and his whole movements stopped.
After a while, Su Cheng looked ashamed and whispered:
"It's indeed a bit excessive that I haven't gone home for so long..."
Su Cheng also knew that it was too much for him not to go home for so long.
After so many days since returning to the fortress, Su Cheng has not returned home once.
Due to the emergency of the war, Su Cheng stayed at the Knights' headquarters after returning to the fortress, organizing and commanding troops to face the enemy.
Because in order to avoid distracting Su Cheng, Kailuoer and Alan did not take the initiative to find Su Cheng.
It's been so long since he returned to the fortress that he hasn't seen his other wife and sister - to say that Su Cheng doesn't feel guilty,
That must be false.
After seeing Su Cheng's expression of shame, Alyssa immediately continued:
"Su Cheng, why don't you go home tonight? Going home for one night is not a big deal that will affect the situation of the war, right? Even if there is any emergency, our home is so close to the Knights headquarters, Willy and the others will not I can report back immediately.”
"……Oh well."
…
…
Su Cheng said hello to Willy and started home with Alyssa.
When walking home side by side, Su Cheng said to Alyssa:
"I have a gift for you and Carol."
"Really? What gift?"
"Keep it a secret for now. I'll give it to you two together when I get home and see Carol."
The gift Su Cheng mentioned was naturally the wedding gift that Jacob gave him - two exquisite women's necklaces.
And the men in black robes - the two magic rings that Liya gave him, which have the effect of nourishing the body and protecting the fetus.
In addition to the necklace given by Jacob and the ring given by Liya, Su Cheng himself also bought some expensive cosmetics for Kailuo Er and Alyssa in the imperial capital.
Of course, Su Cheng didn't forget to bring gifts to Alan and Deng Jiaer.
Seeing that Su Cheng was unwilling to reveal what gift he had prepared for them, Alyssa puffed up her cheeks in dissatisfaction.
At this moment, Alyssa seemed to remember something.
So he smiled meaningfully:
"Su Cheng, we also have a gift for you here. It's a very surprising gift."
"A gift? What gift?"
"Huh huh huh." Alyssa imitated Su Cheng's tone just now, "You'll know when you get home and see Carol."
"Don't imitate me!"
Su Cheng and Alyssa arrived at the door of their home while talking.
Su Cheng walked quickly to the door and knocked on the door.
Then, there was a rush of footsteps in the house, and a voice came from inside the door and said:
"who is it?"
"Hmph, guess who it is?"
Su Cheng wanted to give his sister a wake-up call.
In Su Cheng's imagination, after he said this, the door to his house would open wide, and Alan would shout "brother" with excitement and fly into his arms.
But reality is very different from imagination.
In response to Su Cheng, there was a "click" sound of the door being locked.
"Although our family looks big, we are not a family that spends money randomly, so there is no need to come to sell products to our family anymore. Please come back, Mr. Salesman."
"Open the door quickly! It's me! I'm your brother Su Cheng! Have you even forgotten my voice!"
Su Cheng said anxiously while knocking hard on the door.
As soon as Su Cheng finished speaking, the door was opened a crack.
A beautiful green eye looked at Su Cheng through the crack in the door.
Alan, who was looking at Su Cheng through the crack in the door, was full of dissatisfaction.
"... I don't have a brother."
"What are you talking about! Look carefully! Isn't the person standing in front of you your brother!"
Bang!
Alan closed the door tightly again, as if he was too lazy to care about Su Cheng anymore, and then locked it again.
"It's been so long since I returned to the fortress, and I haven't come home to see our people once. I'm not a brother."
"Gu..."
Su Cheng's expression immediately became weird and ugly as if he had eaten feces.
"That... The Holy Xilan Empire suddenly tore up the armistice agreement and sent troops to invade the south. When I returned to the fortress, the vanguard of the Xilan Army had already walked to a distance of only 20 miles from the fortress. The battle situation was very urgent, and I had to stay at the Knights' headquarters to coordinate the overall situation..."
"In short, I'm sorry! I know I was wrong! Are you upset because I didn't care about you? I know I was wrong! I will stay at home tonight and return to the headquarters tomorrow morning, so I will accompany you well tonight!"
Inside the door: "..."
Even Alyssa began to speak for Su Cheng at this time.
But no matter what Su Cheng and Alyssa said, there was still silence inside the door.
Seeing that Alan was reluctant to open the door, Su Cheng smiled bitterly.
——I can only use some tricks...
——If Alan's weakness is anything...
Su Cheng took out the new board game he bought for Alan in Pendragon.
"Alan! Look! This is the new board game I bought for you when I returned to Pendragon!"
"Brother, welcome home!"
Alan pushed the door open with a smile on his face and threw himself into Su Cheng's arms.
"You guy!"
Su Cheng pinched Alan's cheeks as he threw himself into his arms, both angry and amused
