Chapter 346: Ancient Castle Strategy (3)

Leaving corpses behind, Ulster's army fled in a frenzy while chanting 'Thor's apparitions'.

Todd laughed and walked down the city wall, looking at the group of bloodied and cheering warriors in front of the gate square, walking into the crowd with joy and greeting everyone cordially.

looked at the soldiers in front of them who were covered with red light and didn't even have time to wipe the blood stains off their faces. Todd opened the soul space, turned into a tyrant, found all the clan leaders and army commanders in the Golden Palace, and asked them, "How is the battle going in the city?"

In this splendid palace, the excited people are talking loudly.

"The enemy is like a group of pigs in a slaughterhouse, just trying to flee in all directions, and we haven't even met a decent resistance!"

"A big win!"

"Our tribe has captured the harbor guard battalion and controlled all the ships in the harbor. ”

"The Redbranch Gladiators defeated the defenders of the city and cut off the head of an earl. ”

Listening to the people's discussions, Todd nodded with satisfaction and began to arrange the tasks for the next stage: "The patriarchs of all the tribes obey the order, in the name of the gods, I command you to release and collect all the slaves in the city, break the shackles on them, empty the wealth of the city, and capture the citizens of the city. After completing these tasks, all retreat to the port area and begin boarding as soon as possible. ”

"Red Branch Gladiators, I command you to guard the gates, and if any enemy forces inside the city try to retake the gates, defeat them!

Todd shifted his gaze to the Valkyrie beside him: "Evie, you stay, I'll have a task for you later." ”

Todd, who had sent the clan chiefs and army commanders out of the spirit world and regained his human form, sighed softly at the main hall.

The Valkyrie looked at him, did not speak, and waited quietly for the other to speak.

"Evie, I need you and your sisters to lead the Knights of the North Island to maintain order in the city......"

Evie frowned slightly: "Maintain...... Order?"

Todd leaned his back against the throne, his face dejected: "When the barbarian tribes liberate their people, those slaves who have been oppressed and brutalized for generations are bound to use a hundred times more cruel means to take revenge on their former masters. ”

Evie was a little curious: "Is there anything wrong with this?"

Todd glanced at her and said softly, "The name Ulster, in the near future, will sooner or later disappear from the land of the North. This means that it won't be long before I return to this land. At that time, I will no longer be a marauder, but a conqueror. So, I don't want this current victory to build too much hatred among the Ulsters. ”

Evie pondered for a moment, and understood the meaning of Todd's words: "So, what kind of yardstick should I use to measure my behavior? Moreover, you must know that there are tens of thousands of slaves who are about to be emancipated in the Ancient City, and the Knights of the North Island only have three hundred......"

Todd hesitated for a long time, but finally gave a difficult answer: "Keep the killing and atrocities in the mansions of the nobles, and try not to spread to the common people." I will lend you all nine griffons, for your use. ”

After dealing with the affairs of the soul space, ride Todd of Henry the Griffon, come to the cliff north of the city, and fly to the entrance of a hidden cave.

A group of mysterious troops wearing gray robes and embroidered "umbrellas" on their shoulders waited at the entrance of the cave early, and saw griffins descending from the sky, and knelt on the ground one after another.

Todd rolled over the griffin and asked the crowd on the ground, "Are you volunteers from the Xenomorph Society?"

The leader, an old man with a gray beard and blind eyes, stood up and said respectfully, "For the sake of the continuation and well-being of the alien race, at the call of Lord Rachel, we are all members of the Xenomorph Society of the Twilight Kingdom......"

Todd looked around at the crowd and asked, "What's going on inside?"

"According to the route pointed out by that Fergal, our men have found the underground passage and are now clearing the enemy forces inside. ”

Todd looked down at him, "How many of you are coming, how many of you are here, how many enemy troops are there, are there any losses in this operation?"

"The Xenomorph Association in the North has sent a total of ninety-six people. The old man's voice did not fluctuate in the slightest: "So far in this operation, about a hundred enemies have appeared, and we have killed twelve of our companions. ”

Todd's tone was a little regretful: "Did you sacrifice twelve people......"

The old man glanced at Todd quickly, and added, "If it weren't for the equipment and explosives from Twilight City, I'm afraid more than half of the people would have died this time." ”

While the two were talking, an xenomorph covered in stone armor came out of the cave and said to the leader, "The enemies in the passage have been cleared. ”

The xenomorph old man nodded, raised his hand, and motioned for Todd to follow.

The group made their way through a damp underground tunnel, bypassing countless traps and traps, and finally came to two heavy stone doors.

Watching the leader arrange the patterns on the stone door in order, he grabbed an iron wheel axle next to the door with his hand, and turned it several times before the stone door slowly opened.

Todd's curiosity, which had not been bothered for a long time, was faintly flareing up again. He became more and more interested in what was hidden behind the door.

Walking into a large underground hall, the faint sound of air movement could be heard, and the corpses of fallen Ulsters could be seen everywhere on the ground.

Some of them were burned to death, some were cut off with sharp weapons, and there is no doubt that they were the result of the battle of these alien troops.

Walking forward a few dozen meters, Todd's vision suddenly widened, and Todd came to a steep mountain path with a huge naturally formed sinkhole in front of him, and a narrow pit mouth tens of meters wide above his head.

The dazzling sunlight shone down from the mouth of the pit and into the sinkhole, but it could not dispel the darkness in the sinkhole.

Todd came to the edge of the stone platform of the trail, crouched down and looked down, and below him was a bottomless abyss, as if a huge black mouth would swallow everything at any moment.

Todd straightened up and said with emotion: "I didn't expect that there would be such a huge pit under the ancient city. ”

"To be precise, this was once an active volcano. Furgar's voice suddenly rang out, causing everyone to look back.

Fugal, who was escorted by two xenomorphs, smiled bitterly and said to Todd: "Lord Boyle, I am willing to share all the secrets I know with you, so that you still refuse to believe me?"

Todd smiled and motioned for the xenomorph soldier to let go of the guy, "Tell me, I'd like to hear about this place." ”

Breaking free, Fugar twisted his sore wrist, nodded slightly, and said, "Before I introduce, allow me to show you something. ”

After obtaining Todd's permission, Fergar lay on the ground and motioned for everyone to be quiet and never make a sound. Then he picked up a grape-sized stone from the ground and carefully threw it into the abyss.

The sound of stones colliding with the mountain wall kept echoing in the sinkhole.

After waiting for tens of seconds, the echo of the stone disappeared.

After another half or so minutes, just when Todd thought Fergal was playing tricks on him, suddenly, a deafening roar of the beast resounded throughout the sinkhole.
