Chapter 084: The Crow's Beak Is Also a Talent
Deep underground below minus 2,800 meters above sea level, Wen Dao decided to have a good chat with the wolf cavalry. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
A little earlier than that, at the top of the snow peak at an altitude of three thousand meters, in the "Frostwolf Castle" of the wolf cavalry stronghold, a careful mission report was underway. The reporter was two wolf cavalrymen who had recently been rescued from the Liansta dungeon, and the listeners were six wolf rider elders, including two rune priests and four bloodclaw masters.
“…… Something like this happened. ”
After listening carefully to Noyodin's mission report, the elders exchanged eye contact. Compared with the trivial matter of upgrading the equipment of the aborigines, the incident of Noyodin being captured and going to the Redstone Fortress to communicate with Wendao attracted their attention even more. After a moment of discussion, Grand Elder Moka asked questions on behalf of the Elder Body.
"Is the person you saw sure it's the envoy of the Dragon Palace?"
"He claims to be the representative of the lord, and he does have the crest of the virtuous dragon on his body. Noi replied cautiously.
"And, he's strong. Odin added.
"Strong?" Moka was intrigued by Odin's description. "What's the law?"
"That kind of power is not a skill or equipment, but a level that seems to be completely different from ours. Odin seemed to describe with some difficulty. "At that time, Noi and I used all our strength, using the Wolf Emblem and Ripping Claw, but he still easily held it down...... That feeling of being irresistible has never even been experienced when I was fighting with the elders. ”
“…… Hmph, astral species?"
A cold snort came from the Elders. "Astral Species" is another name used by the inhabitants of the Earth Realm to refer to those races who inhabit the Sea of Stars and have extraordinary talents, and although the meaning of the word is supposed to be neutral, it is usually spoken with strong envy and hatred.
"Has he earned the allegiance of the Lienstas?" asked a rune priest.
"He has great prestige among the Lensta, and the fortress is very respectful to him. Odin replied respectfully. "Including the landing craft that ambushed us, it seems that some kind of drastic change has taken place in the Kingdom of Lensta when we are not paying attention. He should have brought about these changes. ”
Odin replied to stir up the Elders again. Judging from all the indications, they could already conclude that Wen Dao, who had won the allegiance of the Liansta people, was undoubtedly the envoy of the Dragon Palace. The next question is, how do the wolf cavalry deal with such a situation?
"Ridiculous! What is the use of sending an envoy to us so many times in the past?"
"Is the Dragon Palace trying to regain control of Grumbell? ”
"Stupid words! We made a promise to the Northern Heavenly Dragon King, not the Dragon Queen. We have kept our promises, and that's enough. ”
"Wait, isn't this a good opportunity for us too? ”
"The question is whether the dragon envoy is trustworthy or not? I suggest that you refrain from acting rashly for the time being, pending the negotiation of the other party. ”
-- The reappearance of the envoy of the Dragon Palace after more than a century is undoubtedly a historical event of great significance for Gulambert. What role the wolf cavalry should play in such a historical event, the elders, you and I have a heated discussion. There were those who offered to cooperate with the Dragon Envoy, those who hoped to maintain the status quo, and those who complained about the long-term inaction of the Dragon Palace, and it took Elder Moka several quarters of an hour to unite his opinions.
“…… In other words, we are not obligated to accompany the Dragon Palace, so we can continue to guard this place for now, right?" Moka looked around at the elders, and seeing that no one raised any objections, he exhaled slightly. "Very well, let's wait and see what happens for now. ”
Moka moved his gaze to the two wolf cavalrymen in front of him and announced. "You can go down and rest. As for the gaffes of this mission, and the punishment for losing power armor, they will be announced tomorrow, so be prepared. ”
“…… Be. ”
Although Odin showed an expression that he wanted to say something, Noi had already bowed and retreated, so he had to keep his mouth shut for the time being.
Noi, who had left the conference room, walked briskly down the aisle of Frostwolf Castle, his face filled with anger.
"Cut! And those old men aren't going to do anything, so they're calling us in for a fart?"
Noi kicked the front locker and threw a tantrum. Odin, who was supposed to act as a pacifier at such a moment, was strangely silent behind the scenes. Noi, who felt that something was wrong, looked back and saw his partner staring at the corner of the void with a suspicious expression.
"Hey, what are you thinking?"
“…… I'm thinking about the cover of the fire when we finally parted. Odin spoke slowly.
At that time, the wolf cavalry who came to rescue them was strongly intercepted by Wen Dao, if it were not for the sudden fierce fire that disrupted the battle formation, I am afraid that the wolf cavalry would have to be left behind with men and boats. Odin had thought that the fire was coming from the rest of the wingboats, but upon inquiring afterwards it revealed that they didn't know anything about it - it was unlikely that the heavy fire of that level would have been placed on the landing craft's platform.
The unknown cover of fire was included in the report as a suspicious point, but compared to the event of the arrival of the dragon envoy on Gulambell, this subtle suspicion did not seem to attract the attention of the elders. Although Odin wanted to remind the elders to pay attention just now, he still didn't get a chance.
"I see, it's quite suspicious. Odin said something that made Noi frown and think. "After all, I've never had an artillery in my Fenris Wolf Rider, and since it's not the support of friendly forces, is it the Emperor's wrath?"
"I don't think it's the time to joke. Not responding to his friend's sense of humor, Odin emphasized. "It can be assumed that there is a third party between the Lensta and us. If this has something to do with the scout puppets that have been frequently appearing in the neighborhood recently, then the other party's motives for covering us are quite suspicious. ”
“…… What's the suspicious law?"
"Let's say, follow us and find Frostwolf Castle. ”
"Are you thinking too much?" Noi objected. "Besides, what if they can find Frostwolf Castle? this is the fortification where my Fenris Wolf Cavalry is stationed! Unless fleet-level troops are used, it is impossible to ......"
Noi's words stopped abruptly in the middle of the journey, and Odin next to him also showed a look of consternation. Only a low roar like thunder could be heard shaking the air, rolling from weak to strong, from far and near, and the entire Frostwolf Castle was shaken by the low roar. The alarmed wolf cavalry ran to the aisles or terraces, looking for the source of the roar.
Under the gaze of countless eyes, two meteorite-like objects crossed the sky, rushing straight towards the snowy peaks from the distant sky. The object seemed to be an obelisk wrapped in layers of armor, and the violent friction with the air caused its surface to burn violently, cutting through the sky and setting half the sky on fire!
"Assault Landing Module?!" Noi called out the object's name.
“…… Noi, for the first time, I discovered that you still have the talent for a crow's beak. Odin looked at his partner speechlessly.
"Is this time for jokes?!" Noi said angrily.
Under the watchful eye of Fenris's wolf riders, the two assault landing modules flew over Frostwolf Castle and landed on another snowy peak adjacent to Frostwolf Castle in a violent deceleration. The obelisk-shaped landing module was deployed within seconds of landing, and the Emperor's Hammer Heavy Tank, armed with large-caliber destruction cannons, opened with a rumbling roar.
Wen Dao, who was determined to talk to the wolf cavalry, took the elevator with Ma Qiuya to re-ascend to the snow peak.
The two-fold gravitational acceleration doubled the weight of the body, but before reaching the final deceleration stage, a sudden violent tremor swept through the elevator. Wen Dao and Ma Qiuya clung to the handrail to fix their bodies, and the two looked at each other, but the old madman shouted excitedly.
"Ahhh
