Chapter 425: Kurma

Several more prisoners were then interrogated, and the answers were all the same.

The sun god only appears at night in the castle of the hill of Chilima, and does enlighten the devout believers to break through to the transcendent.

Except for the shrewd-looking fellow, no one saw the true face of the sun god.

Although he didn't get much information that Fat Tang cared about, he knew a lot about the situation of the army stationed here in the Sun God Kingdom.

After figuring out the enemy's situation, Shui Zhao and other wild boar knights couldn't help but be secretly discouraged, their destination was indeed in the valley ahead, but at this time it was occupied by the army of the Sun God Kingdom, and they had already built a camp, and if they wanted to enter the ruins, they had to break through their camp first.

Although today's victory killed nearly a thousand people on the other side, the ruins that Jacques said were still occupied by the armies of the Sun God Kingdom. The big reason for winning today was that the battlefield chosen by the other side was not conducive to the deployment of their large army of infantry, and they did not know how to fight the boar knights armed with muskets, so they suffered a big loss.

But if the two sides fight again, Jacques believes that as long as the commander of the Sun God Kingdom is not a fool, he will definitely not suffer such a big loss again.

And at this time, for the Borians of the Sun God Kingdom, the best choice is to hold the stronghold.

The boar knights are strong in the field assault, and if they can't hold on to the wall, the boar knights, who only have more than 100 people, will not be able to attack the camp at all.

Shui Zhao hated and patted his leg armor, "I would have brought a few artillery pieces with me if I knew that I would have destroyed their camp!"

Jacques thought to himself, this kind of afterthought, there is no point at all, if you bring artillery, the travel speed will be much slower, and you can only take the official road with hardened roads, I don't know when I can get here.

Shui Zhao is unreliable, this woman really dares to lead the team to storm the camp of the Polyans according to her violent temper.

No, she had already begun to inquire about the structure of the wall, and when she heard that the wooden fence was only more than five meters high, her eyes were sparkling and her face was happy. Could it be that she plans to build a ramp and rush straight in?

"Jacques, you said before that the inside of the ruins is a dimensional space? Is it that if we rush in, the people outside will have nothing to do with us?"

Hey, silly girl, think about the servant army, even if the boar knights can rush in, the servant army will not be needed?

Jacques really couldn't complain, so he simply said: "I'll go and investigate the situation in the evening, I don't know if the ruins have been opened." ”

The boar riders chose to camp on the top of the slope on the side of the valley, guarding the entrance and exit of the valley on the one hand, and observing the situation in the valley from a high vantage point.

The source energy technique of the alien beast and wild boar finally came in handy at this time, and these natural beasts planted a circle of two-person tall thorns around it, protecting the camp formed by the field tent in the middle.

Below is a funnel-shaped valley, with a small mouth and a big belly, and the camp established by the Sun God Kingdom can be faintly seen in the dense forest.

The camp was made of local materials, with tall logs tied into a wall, and several corner towers were built in the middle, and standing on the corner towers, you can see the situation in the valley.

Jacques guessed that the commander of the Sun God Kingdom should also be looking at the hills miles away from the corner tower at this time, and he could probably guess Jacques's purpose at this time.

The boar riders weren't "passing adventurers", they were definitely here for the ruins.

......

As the sun sets, Jacques and Lily sneak out of the station with Fat Orange, sneak down the hillside, sneak into the forest, and approach the camp of the Sun God's kingdom.

Approaching the other camp, Jacques and Lily stopped, jumped into the canopy and hid in it, leaving Fat Orange alone to explore the way.

Fat Orange's hidden specialty is very suitable for sneaking in, and after a while, he slipped into the camp, not delaying anywhere else, and ran directly to the only area in the camp that could shield his mental power from probing.

Just like the land of Thunder's inheritance, this Beastmaster Ruins is also covered by a formation, so that ordinary people can't feel anything special even if they pass by the entrance of the dimensional space, let alone enter it.

Only during the special period preset by the person who set up the formation, will the formation reveal some gaps, allowing people outside to "take advantage of it".

However, there is an obvious flaw in the formation here, if you use mental power to perceive, you can find that there is a space that is "occluded", which is like a light in the dark night for the omniscient who scans the surroundings with mental power, and it is impossible not to pay attention to this "blank space" after the covering.

It's like telling all knowers that there's something special here, come and see.

Arriving at the "special place", Fat Tangerine saw several boulders piled up in the clearing, three of which were arranged in a seemingly random triangle.

The shape is exactly the same as Paul described, and it seems that this is it.

Fat Tangerine walked to the middle of the three boulders, felt the surrounding situation, there was no change, if it weren't for the fact that the surroundings couldn't be explored with mental power because of the influence of the formation, Fat Tangerine thought he was in the wrong place.

Well, the ruins haven't been opened yet.

The trio returned to their camp disappointed and began planning their plans again.

Most of the soldiers of the Sun God Kingdom had not slept well that night, and the fierce boar knights had settled down on the hillside not far away, ready to threaten the humble camp in the valley at any time.

No one would think that the fence made of logs would be able to stop those strange beasts and wild boars, let alone how to deal with them in a panic if the other party really attacked at night.

Therefore, the cautious commander of the Sun God Kingdom arranged for half of the troops to be fully armed for the night, and only half of the people were allowed to sleep, but even those who were allowed to rest did not sleep soundly, and most of them fell asleep with spears in their arms.

The next morning, however, something incomprehensible happened to the Borians, and the enemy on the hillside had put away their tents, knocked down the thorns that had been planted improvly, and were intending to leave.

It wasn't until the boar knights left that the commanders of the Sun God Kingdom breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly ordered their men to go to yesterday's battlefield to inspect it.

When they arrived at the battlefield of yesterday's battle, there were only two dozen weary Polyians struggling to dig pits to bury the bodies of the dead.

The captives wept with joy when they saw their own people! They were really afraid, and yesterday the vicious fellows threatened them to dig a pit and throw them in if they could not bury the bodies by today. Standby station

......

However, not all captives were digging pits to bury their bodies.

A shrewd fellow was riding a bantam and leading the way in front of a group of wild boars in battle armor.

Never in the past 20 years of Culmar's life has he been so hopeful as he is today.

As long as he takes the boar riders behind him to the cave he stumbled upon, he will be rewarded with a thousand silver coins, and by the way, the bantam he is riding will also belong to him.

Although the other captured companions saw him being taken away by these strange people riding wild boars, and knew that he was serving the strange people.

So what? After getting the money, the world is big, and where can't you go?

Kurmar had long wanted to try his luck in the East, where it was said that there were countless good things, and the adventurers from the Western Sahara Empire who occasionally appeared to trade with their village were always able to pull up all sorts of novelties.

The clock that was set up in the chief's house, the stained glass bowl in which the priest held the holy water, and only when the guests came, the grandmother was willing to put a few pieces of tea to boil the water.

Only a palm-sized car can run around the ground after turning the mechanism, playing music as it runs. It's said to be just a model, and a real guy hundreds of times bigger than it can pull hundreds of people on the ground and gallop faster than the fastest horse!

By the way, those guys from the Western Sahara Empire have silk clothes that are smoother than the skin of a sixteen-year-old girl, and the prettiest girl in the village was tricked by an abominable adventurer with a silk horse five years ago!

Although Kurma had never used silver coins, he had heard from his people who had been to the cities of the Western Satarians that one silver coin could buy many, many things, so a thousand silver coins!

Kormar used to be the pride of the whole village, and two years ago, when he was eighteen years old, he was chosen by a messenger sent by the sun god to take him to the holy mountain to participate in the awakening ceremony, and was lucky enough to be enlightened by the sun god and became an awakened one.

He also had a secret that he didn't tell the young man who led the boar knight.

That was him, Kurma, who had been one of the messengers of the sun god.

Although he only did it for a short year, he was driven out of the Holy Mountain because of the failure of the godfather's struggle, and was expelled to this remote area to guard this worthless valley.

The young man showed an unusual interest in the sun god and the sacred mountain, which made him even more afraid to divulge his experience.

So at this time, he regretted it very much, and in a hurry, he revealed the information that the sun god was a woman to the young man, and now he is really stupid in retrospect, how can outsiders know whether the sun god is a man or a woman, fortunately, the young man does not believe it, and has not yet found this loophole to get to the bottom of it.

Now Kurmar was silently praying that when he reached the cave, the boar riders would keep their promise and let him go.

The cave was only half a day's walk from the valley where Kurma had been stationed, and the entrance was small and inconspicuous. If it weren't for the heavy rain during the patrol that day and hid in the cave to avoid the rain, Kurma would not have found that there was a cave in this cave, not only the internal space is huge, but there is also an underground river flowing through it. The young man asked him to find a valley where the team could hold it, and he immediately remembered this cave, which was no better than a valley!

After arriving at the cave, Jacques and Fat Tangerine went in to inspect it and were very satisfied, so they let the Boar Knight and his servants enter the cave with their mounts and supplies.

This cave hidden at the foot of the mountain, although the entrance of the cave can only be entered by three horses in parallel, but after walking through a downhill passage, the space inside suddenly opens up, and there is an inner cave of more than 3,000 square meters, which can barely accommodate their entire team.

There is also a waterhole in the deepest part of the cave, which is living water, which is supposed to be connected to the underground river.

As long as there is enough food and the lighting problem is solved, they can stay here for a while and wait for the ruins to open before heading to the valley.

Jacques, of course, gave Kurma a thousand silver coins as agreed, not money tickets, but a small bag of silver coins, which made the shrewd fellow happy like a child of two hundred pounds.

But Kurma soon became unhappy, and Jacques did not allow him to leave, and Kulmar could not leave until Jacques and the others evacuated from the cave.

Kurma had no choice but to accept it, but fortunately he was not locked up, but was allowed to move freely in the cave, and was able to eat with the servants of the Boar Knights every day.

Over the next few days, the shrewd Culmar noticed that the young man named Jacques would leave the cave every night, knowing that Jacques was the leader of the knights and did not need to participate in the routine patrols, and he was very curious about what Jacques was doing when he came out of the cave.

Not only is Kurma curious about Jacques, but Jacques is also very interested in this dark-skinned and big-eyed guy, especially the guy who likes to giggle very much, showing two rows of snow-white teeth, which are set off by the black face extremely dazzling.

So as soon as he had the chance, Jacques called Kurmar and asked him about the customs and history of the Bolias.

"So only the transcendent can marry four wives?" Jacques was a little surprised, he thought that every Bolian man could take four wives.

The two sat by the waterhole and chatted.

"Of course, only extraordinary people can marry four wives, otherwise how can there be so many women, there are more than 200 men in our village, and there are probably a few more women than men. Kurmar explained. "Are you married, then?"

Jacques seemed to stab Kurmar in the sore spot, making the whole slender young man very cramped, and his hands around his legs put his face into his knees, in fact, in the dim light, he felt that the face that was about to burn was not really red at all, let alone his black face could hide the shy face.

"I ...... I haven't yet!"

"Why aren't you married? Didn't you say you've been a transcendent for two years? Haven't you been married at sixteen? What have you been doing all these years?" Jacques said incredulous.

"I ...... I...... is working hard to cultivate, not in a hurry to get married......" Kurma is dying.

"It's not like you like a girl, and people can't marry you, so you're just waiting? Oh, maybe you want to become a plastic power and then propose? Your custom is to propose, right? It won't be a marriage robbery. Jacobala asked a lot of questions.

Kurma nodded and replied crampedly: "Actually, I was hopeful at first, but then I ...... I was sent here, probably, she is married to someone else by now. ”

"Oh, what kind of girl, what makes you so infatuated?" asked Jacques, grinning, "how is it better than your sun god?

Kurma still respects the sun god very much, and subconsciously replied: "Naturally, the sun god is more beautiful! How can Jaya compare with the sun god......

With that, Kurma covered her mouth.
