Chapter 11: Calling for help
"I have to stand up and stop this war, it's my responsibility as a princess of the kingdom that I can't shirk. ”
Ten years ago, a large-scale war broke out between humans and orcs, and it was a meat grinder-like battle, and the alliance of major city-states of the Monty Kingdom won a crushing victory at the cost of nearly 400,000 knights.
Weapons were then collected, military defenses were redivided, and the orcs were expelled to the desert.
The current peace is not easy to come by, and if the two races fight again, the continent of Azesia will once again become a bloody slaughterhouse of slaughter.
"Oriental, I need your help now. Leah moved her gaze to Chen Feng, and she could only pin all her hopes on him at the moment.
"What do you want me to do? Chen Feng asked.
"Leave for Petersburg at once, inform the Lord of Gladstone of Carroll's plot, and ask him to send the Knights to stop the war. Leah frowned, and suddenly she had an idea and took off the amethyst necklace she was wearing on her chest, "Take this, they will believe what you say." ”
"I'll take you with me, and then you will tell the lord of the city yourself. Chen Feng took the necklace, but he didn't intend to leave Leah alone in the lair.
Orcs have always been fierce and bloodthirsty, and they will do terrible things.
"I'm the target of the orc clan's focus now, take me, the target is too big, it's hard for you to escape. ”
"Princess Leah, you have to understand that orcs don't know how to pity the jade, not to mention that they are facing off against the Kingdom Knights at the moment, and they are likely to use you as a shield. ”
"You don't have to worry about this, no matter how I say it, I'm a princess, and with the support of the entire Monty Kingdom behind me, the orcs don't dare to touch me easily. Leah pouted, "Oriental, if you are really worried about my safety, then hurry up and bring reinforcements from Petersburg." ”
"Well, take this for self-defense, though it might not be of much use. ”
Chen Feng loaded the remaining four bullets into the same magazine, loaded the bullets, and threw the gun to Leah along the gap in the cage.
"Is Lord Gladstone trustworthy, what if he's also Carroll's cronies?"
This kind of thing must be asked clearly in advance, otherwise Chen Feng will be a meat bun beating a dog and throwing himself into the net.
"Trustworthy, I pledge with my life, he is a very respectable elder. Leah nodded firmly, her eyes full of trust and adoration.
After making a plan for help, Chen Feng next had to think about how to escape from the cage?
The orc's cave was deep and dark, surrounded by hard stone walls, but the faint moonlight still spilled in through the hole behind them.
"This wall should be connected to the outside world. Chen Feng pulled it twice, and the sand and gravel were loose, not as indestructible as he imagined.
So he used his hands to dig a small hole in the bottom of the stone wall and stuffed the ** that pulled the fuse into it.
With a violent explosion, the entire stone wall collapsed, and it was vulnerable in front of **.
"Princess Leah, wait for me, and I'll come back to save you. Chen Feng jumped out of the cage, and with the help of the cover of the night and the jungle, he fled towards the outside of the lair.
The orcs who stayed in the cave woke up from their sleep when they heard the noise, and rushed over in a daze to check the reason.
"Who's going to save me? I'm almost out of breath. Leah pressed her hands to her chest and lay on the ground, shaking her legs.
"Quick, go and call the witch, if anything happens to her, we will all be put to death by the leader. ”
Being tossed by Leah like this, the orcs really ignored Chen Feng.
All the orcs and wizards focused on Leah, a spy sent by humans, and compared to Her Royal Highness the Princess, the presence was so low that no one noticed even if he disappeared.
After Chen Feng crawled out of the orc's lair, he went straight to the Mitchell defense line.
It's a long way to get to St. Petersburg, and you have to walk to the Year of the Monkey, so you have to steal a vehicle first.
There were more than a dozen war horses tethered to the outer garrison of the Black and Gold Knights, and Chen Feng had crooked thoughts about them.
He first collected a large amount of thatch and dry wood in the woods, piled them into several hills, and then lit them one by one with a lighter, and the burning flames, lighting up the night sky, soon attracted the attention of the Knights.
When the sentry went to check, Chen Feng secretly went to the back, untied all the reins of the war horse, and ignited the mane on the tail of the war horse, causing them to run in all directions in panic.
And he, hiding in the panicked herd of horses, under the cover of the hazy night, headed in the direction of Petersburg.
The sky gradually brightened, and the outline of the main city of Petersburg appeared in front of Chen Feng.
Unlike the dilapidated scene of Laika Town, Petersburg is surrounded by high-rise buildings with thick walls, surrounded by a moat dozens of meters wide, and there are three suspension bridges on top for human access to and out, just like the main city.
"It's a big castle, it just feels different. ”
Chen Feng was about to ride into the city on horseback, but was blocked by the guards at the gate.
"Dismount, please show your knight tattoo?" the guard stopped Chen Feng and asked sharply.
The war horse under Chen Feng's crotch was dressed in black and gold armor, which was obviously a military horse belonging to the Carol clan, but the owner of the horse was wearing strange decorations, which naturally attracted the attention of the guards.
In the territory of the Kingdom of Monty, only knights who have been awarded the Tattoo are eligible to own this exclusive warhorse.
"What is that?" Chen Feng's head was stunned, and he didn't know what to do.
"Arrest first, then torture. Several guards decisively subdued Chen Feng and pressed him to the ground, "We suspect that you are a spy from another country, please cooperate with the investigation." ”
"What's going on?"
General Deka, who happened to be on patrol, saw this scene and came over to inquire about the reason.
"General Deka, this strange fellow rode into the city on the horses of the Carols, but he didn't even know what the knight's tattoo was? ”
"There's no need to be tried, just go straight to death row. ”
For the Carols, Dika was quite contemptuous, and when he met their knights in the territory of Petersburg, he killed them as much as he could, and never left them alive.
"I was sent by Princess Leah to ask for help from Petersburg, so please let me see Lord Gladstone. ”
"Can you find some reliable basis before making it up? Princess Leah has never left the palace, and even if she did, she had the most elite Golden Knights to escort her, how could she send you to Petersburg for help?
Also, the knights of the Carol clan chose to take a detour through Petersburg, who would dare to ride a war horse into the city with such a swagger as you? ”
Dika grabbed Chen Feng's head, and the amethyst necklace hanging around his neck caught his attention, "This chain is good, I accepted it, and I won't accept your things in vain, I will send someone to bring you a full meal before the execution." ”
Several guards rudely tied up Chen Feng and forcibly stuffed him into a water prison.
"Why am I so miserable?" Chen Feng stood in the stinking dirty water, speechless to the extreme.
There were several rotting corpses floating beside him, and rats were lying on them eating flesh.
