Chapter 195: Each has an abacus
The enemy of the enemy is not necessarily a friend, Arryn
"I originally gave you three days to find the barrier army that frequently attacked our convoys, but now that three days have passed, what answer did you give me? Instead of finding our target, just yesterday another convoy was attacked, a convoy of more than 500 escorts, and I asked what I want you for! Today they have the audacity to attack a convoy of 500 people, and tomorrow they may directly attack Canterlot with high morale, damn it! Do I need to hide in a dungeon to stop a possible attack, ah!!" Niesis slapped the throne angrily, shaking the few members of the Liberation Society below, and they didn't dare to squeak on the side, of course, not everyone looked frightened and afraid, there was a newly promoted underground warrior, glanced at the cowering appearance of his companions around him, with a look of disdain, thinking that the opportunity for promotion had come, he immediately coughed twice, and after attracting everyone's attention, he stood up with his head held high, " Ahem, my lord, in fact, my colleagues and I have not been without efforts in the past three days, we have a clue, according to the location of the transport and supply team they attacked before, we have delineated a general range, I firmly believe that as long as we carefully search this area, we will be able to find the traces of this enemy army, when the time comes..." Don't, Lord Hiss, Lord Hiss" The underground clan was stunned for a moment and just wanted to argue a few words, but the guards on both sides didn't give him a chance to explain at all, and dragged him away from the crowd and backwards, "Do you know why? I will kill him without letting him finish his words! because he is stupid!!" Niaisis suddenly raised his voice, causing the underground tribes of the Restoration Society to bow their heads suddenly. If he has a little brain, he will find that this attack will break the range he demarcated before, because this attack will take ten days to travel back and forth according to our calculations, which is not at all what this barrier clan can do by interspersing, but we can also be sure that this is the same group of gang of rampart clans sneak attack, hum, if according to the scope planned by the fool just now, almost the entire underground territory is their hideout, then what is the use of me searching, if I don't have a brain, then die!" After Niaisis finished speaking, he sat back on the throne, supporting his forehead with his hand, panting heavily, under the throne were rows of members of the Restoration Society who would cause earthquakes in the territory of the stomping jurisdiction, and at this time, they all lost their previous domineering, and they did not dare to look at the man on the throne with their heads down.
"Knock knock!" There was a dull knock on the door, and before Neais could respond, a guard ran in quickly, bringing a gust of wind and heading straight for Neais's throne, "My lord, there is urgent information!" The guard said in a panic with both hands in a fist, "Say it" Neais did not let go of the hand supporting his head, but waved his other hand at the guard below casually, but after waiting for a while, Niais couldn't help but raise his head a little angrily and looked at the guard, and the guard quickly bowed his head respectfully and whispered, " My lord, are you really talking about this?" said the guard, glancing vigilantly at the members of the Liberation Society. Neais frowned, and his heart chuckled, but he immediately understood and yelled at the members of the Liberation Society below: "Get out of here!" Mobilize all your forces, find this team, strengthen patrol posts, and add war taxes in your respective jurisdictions, and if you can't pay them, send them to the front line to be coolies or cannon fodder, and if there is no doubt, let me go!" Hearing Niais's words, there was a commotion among the members of the Restoration Society, and as soon as a few members wanted to say something, they were cleverly pulled their sleeves by their companions, and sighed with their eyes, and left in a hurry, as fast as a gust of wind. "Okay, now what news can you say?" Niais said to the guards who ran in as he looked at the empty council chamber, and found that none of his colleagues were well, but the guards who came to deliver the letter became nervous, and the sound of the guards swallowing saliva was clearly audible, and Niais couldn't help but have a ridiculous and ominous premonition, "Chazo is missing, and Master Pusifadia and his team are also missing. "What! you say it again" Niais's eyes glowed strangely in the chamber, and his reaction was even more intense than just now, and the guard bit his lip and muttered, "Aleksie, the former supreme leader of the inspection team of the Liberation Society, is missing, and the captain of your personal guard, Lord Pucifadia, and his team are also missing," the guard licked his dry lips, and repeated the news just now with some bitterness, and immediately lowered his head after speaking, not daring to look directly at the light in Niais's eyes," When did Xia Zuo disappear? I want detailed information, and what happened to Pucifadia, isn't he on the front line to supervise the war, I told him that unless there is something important, he will act on the front line on my behalf, and he should be under heavy protection. It only took a few seconds for Niesis to calm down, although there was still anger and confusion on his face, he still calmly suppressed the stunned corners of his mouth, and then said to the guards in a low voice, " According to the traces of the disappearance, Xia Zuo left less than 2 prayer hours, and the traces of the review team at the scene show that Xia Zuo does not look like he left by himself, but as if he was robbed, the supervising garrison has sent guards to track down, and sent a letter asking for help to the nearby Shadow Force, as for Lord Pucifadia, according to the last letter he left, they successfully set up an ambush near a low-level summoning gate and captured an important big man of the Barrier Clan, and found an underground ruin nearby by an accident and found some precious treasures that may change the battleBut for the sake of secrecy, Master Pusephadia did not say it explicitly, only that he would be extra careful and personally escort you with these things. The guard thought for a moment and told all the news he knew, and took out a letter from his chest, took two steps forward and handed it over, and then respectfully retreated. Niais didn't look at the letter, but put him in his breast pocket casually, and said to the guards who were respectful below, "You go and pass on my orders, the guards guarding Xia Zuo, from the garrison officer to the laborers who are only responsible for cleaning, are all arrested and interrogated, and strictly exclude suspicious people, there must be thieves among them, and secondly, I want to get the information about Pusiphadia first-hand, is there any evidence to prove that Fadia is still alive?" Well, no, my lord, in fact, on the contrary, the person in charge of the investigation suspected that Lord Pusifadia and his team had been killed, because when the search team followed the last mark left by Pusifadia, they found traces of battle in a hidden mountain valley, and some residents reported seeing a group of strange people passing by, by the way, my lord, I have one more thing here, I don't know whether to say it or not, because the news cannot be confirmed. The underground guard hesitated for a long time and then whispered, "Say, what other news do you have?" Niais raised his head suspiciously and looked at the guard, "The garrison officer of a small town in the northern district reported that there was a human mercenary who claimed to belong to the Terran battle sequence unit and said that they knew the whereabouts of the Barrier Clan unit, but they asked for 10,000 gold coins and allowed them to worship the dark god, and sent them to settle in Canterlot to ensure their safety, but the local garrison officer thought they were liars and did not deal with it. The guards lowered their voices very low, for fear that Neais would blame themselves for this news, and sure enough, this news made Neais stunned and immediately reacted and roared, "Idiot! Which garrison officer is this, remove him and his commander from me! In addition, immediately go and find out, where is this town? Mobilize forces to find this group of human mercenaries, no matter how much money is paid, we must recruit them, this may be the fastest way for us to find that team, quick!" The guard didn't expect Neais's reaction to be so great, he answered twice and turned around and ran, rushing out of the door to deliver the order, leaving Neais standing behind the chamber with his stomach heaving and his chest heaving, "What do you think?" It may be a trap, or it may just be a scammer trying to mix up some money, and of course there may really be someone who wants to renounce the faith, after all, no matter what god you believe in, as long as it is good for humans, you can giggle. Then a strange smile came in from the wall, and he answered the question, but Niesis only listened but said nothing, and sat back on the bright throne with a sigh.
Since yesterday from Agnes to find out the location of the summoning door, Luo Muye made an extremely bold plan, he planned to work with the coalition forces on the ground to carry out a raid on the summoning door in the underground territory, in order to ensure the implementation of the plan, he spared no expense to find the evil eye Bolun and asked to pass a piece of information to the ground barrier clan Genova, and this letter carrying the intelligence sharing and plan plan was also set up with an anti-leakage self-destruct device, no specific means can not be opened at all, the letter agreed to launch a joint all-out attack in half a month, by Luo Muye to attack the two nearby summoning doors, The Terran coalition on the ground strongly attacked the other 4 summoning gates, even if it was for a short time to open the defense line at the entrance to allow the underground clan to destroy the ground on a small scale, and the destruction list included the low-level summoning doors that had been destroyed before but were not completely damaged, if this battle could be successful, the alliance of the Terran and the Barrier Clan would achieve a major victory, and the end of the war would be drawn in advance, and Luo Muye was very sure that his allies would be very excited about this plan, and it was very likely that he would pass, of course, Luo Muye could not move these summoning doors in this gap, he knew that he must not act rashly to make the underground clan vigilant, and there was only one chance, but now that he has sufficient information, he will not wait, and he can take some direct or indirect actions with his troops to expand his strength and influence, and his first goal... He fixed his gaze on a circle drawn with a blue pen on the map.
The Xunchi tribe is the third largest tribe in the underground area of Mogadishu, with 4 towns, known as 8,000 tribal members, with 2,000 soldiers who can fight, the most important thing is that this tribe is rumored to be a branch of the Gamma Department in the whole territory of the underground tribe, ranking fifth, in recent years, relying on Niaisis, the tribe has developed very rapidly, occupying a large amount of territory and cultivating a lot of professional warriors, and the power is thriving, and there are nearly 100 members who serve within the Guanghui alone, but who would have thought that it is such a NiaisThe main source of economic income for this tribe is the two huge quarries in the jurisdiction, and the benefits are so good that they almost monopolize more than 50% of the stone supply of this land.
At the entrance of the town stands a huge sign with the majestic and burly supreme leader Saleh and the bright red slogan on it - wholeheartedly reclaiming the glory of the ancestors for the underground people, Frye ripped off the corner of his hood and glanced at the sign, "nonsense" he muttered disdainfully, "Shut up, talk less, you forgot where this place is?" Luo Muye, who was also under the black hood, reprimanded him sternly, and Fry smacked his lips in embarrassment, not daring to say more. Luo Muye came to negotiate this time, so he didn't bring all the troops out, but moved forward lightly and gathered a team of five people and went to the administrative center of the Xunchi Department alone, although he tried his best to go to the center of the Xunchi Department without being armed, but he couldn't resist everyone, for the sake of safety, he still left the large army in a hinterland not too far from the town, and made an appointment with the time and code, once the situation is not right, he will immediately actively carry out rescue operations to help them negotiate the personnel out of trouble, this town is no different from other underground towns but a little different, the reason is that this town is richer as the centerThe good news is that Luo Muye's party did not attract much attention here, and there are many people who hide themselves in wide clothes or cover their faces, and no one will stop these five passers-by with black hoods, but if it is a human and a barrier clan that occasionally appears on the street, the result will be different, there will always be some underground clan guards around them inexplicably, or simply the underground clan wearing green robes and the armbands of the Restoration Society will indifferently lead them to a sparsely populated place, I don't know where it will end up, all of this Luo Muye and his party saw it in their eyes and silently quickened their pace, looking for a place with a secret mark, "There, that's where we are going." Suddenly, Luo Muye's eyes lit up, pointing to a house on the corner of the street that was engraved with an inconspicuous black eye symbol and said, the group walked over quickly, this is a small shop that sells stones, the name is also very common is called Fortune Stone, Luo Muye glanced from the outside in, there are not many customers in the store, only a few people in twos and threes, the waiter is bored and stunned the coins in his hand, several people glanced at each other, Luo Muye took a breath and took a step forward, stood at the door of the stone shop, and then suddenly turned sideways and stepped in, and the waiter who was expected to come forward to receive saw Luo Muye's behavior, and then walked over with a smile on his face and bowed slightly: "Hello distinguished guest, what do you need?" "Stone Rough!" Luo Muye said as low as possible in his voice, making it difficult to distinguish the authenticity of the voice, and the waiter still kept smiling, "Oh? Then what kind of stone rough do you need, we recommend the stones from Pahalil and Charu Ore Fields to you." The waiter raised a hand and calmly introduced, "No, I want the stone from the Omsen quarry." Luo Muye replied calmly according to the information he had received before, "Oh, but the Omsen Quarry has dried up. The waiter tilted his head and said apologetically, "No, the quarry will never run out, and besides, the veins of Omson are only nearly depleted, not completely. Luo Muye nodded and said seriously, the waiter's eyes lit up and looked Luo Muye and his party up and down, and then nodded or smiled: "It seems that a few people are knowledgeable, but the things you want are more special, so please come with me, sit in the living room, I will go and ask the owner of this shop, and he will entertain you." With that, he made a gesture of please and led the group to the second floor of the stone shop.
Luo Muye: They didn't sit in the living room on the second floor for long, the door opened, and the waiter just now didn't walk in, but a trembling, looking like an old man of the underground clan who was about to die, nodded apologetically at the five people in the living room and stepped in, " Hello everyone, my name is Salim, and I am Saleh's younger brother, and since you know our secret code and connection, you must be your own people who know us well, but I have some doubts, because I don't remember when our tribe told such a top-secret news to the aliens, or if they have always been fighting against the Restoration Society everywhere, which can be called mortal enemies. "Do you know who we are?" Luo Muye asked in confusion, "Of course, if your guess is correct, you should be the leader of the most sought-after and highest-bounty infiltrated force in the underground realm. The old man smiled, pulled the chair in front of him and sat down without paying attention. "You..." Fry on the side just wanted to get up and make trouble, and wanted to kill but was pressed down by Luo Muye, Tie Qing sat back with a blue face, Luo Muye shook his head at Frye and said softly, "This, it's not unexpected, he shouldn't be hostile, otherwise we would have been surrounded by enemies when we were talking here." "Ha, look at the young man, that's why you're not the leader, he's a man who understands, okay, please take off your hood, let us be honest with each other, do you have anything to talk about when you find our Xunchi, if you're going to let us fight back and help you destroy our compatriots, then don't open your mouth." The old man sneered at Fry, then boredly took out a pipe from under the cane he was carrying, smacked it aggressively, looked at them with a puzzled expression, and added, "Well, people are old and lazy, but fortunately, there is a tobacco in your human world to relieve the fatigue." Luo Muye squinted his eyes and looked the old man up and down, and then said softly: "Although we are not friends, at least we are not enemies, right? You have your own position, we also have ours, why not find our common interests, ignore those differences, with your wisdom must be able to see?" Luo Muye complimented the old man at the right time, making the old man's face a little ruddy, he casually knocked his pipe on the table and touched his chin and said playfully" There is a word in your human dictionary that says, if I remember correctly, "Seeking common ground while reserving differences?" "Yes, your wisdom is as deep as the starry sky. The other elf immediately answered and praised, but the old man waved his hand unappreciatively, "But you are an elf! "Equipment, supplies, clearing the alien of hidden forces to expand power, and my friendship. It wasn't until this moment that Luo Muye regained his hideousness, lowered his body and said with a sneer. "Ha, do you think too highly of yourself, why should I care about your friendship, let's not talk about this, you have looted the equipment and materials, and it should basically come from my compatriots, is it too shameless for me to use what belongs to my compatriots to expand myself? The old man said unceremoniously. "That's before you don't understand our strength, you have some concerns, when the benefits are big enough, the risk can be taken, now I am very confident that even in the face of the encirclement and suppression of your underground clan, I have 50% certainty to get out of trouble, and after I go out, I will start to retaliate without any scruples, presumably you will also have a headache, if you destroy more, you will be abolished, presumably your lord will not be able to find a second guy who can use a large-scale magic shield to protect you." Luo Muye still didn't let go, and said with a tough attitude, the old man didn't speak, he just stared at Luo Muye's eyes, and after a long while, he loosened his eyelids and suddenly said, I need to prove that you and your team have enough strength, otherwise I refuse to cooperate with you, fortunately we don't have to discuss how to prove our strength, because I have a task in my hand, if you complete it, as long as it is not too demanding, or it damages the fundamental interests of our Xun Chi Department, I can give you relaxation or in our jurisdiction, or within our ability to give the director. "Is this a trial?" Luo Muye narrowed his eyes, "Sort of, the strong talk about cooperation, the weak talk about dependence, the task is there to pick you up!" The old man waved his hand and said indifferently, "How can I make sure that you have enough weight to make the next cooperation?? And what if we complete this task and have a second task, we can't live in the task endlessly." Luo Muye snapped his fingers and said, "The existence of the big clan naturally has its own reputation, as for the right to make decisions, hehe, the young man is enough with my name, I am his younger brother, if he is unfortunately killed, I am the one in power, of course, the relationship between our brothers is very harmonious, now do you consider solving this task?" sneered twice, the old man's eyes suddenly became fierce, it was Luo Muye's turn not to speak, he supported his chin with one hand and thought about it, and then tapped his head as a tacit approval, "Smack" With a crisp sound, the old man directly broke his crutches and pulled out a crumpled note from it and handed it to Luo Muye, "Very good, this is the location of your mission, you have to help us kill someone, and you must see the result within three days, and after success, it will be handed over here, as for how the target died, the way to prove it is that there is a birthmark on the right neck of this target, just cut it off and give it to me after killing." The old man's voice came, Luo Muye took the note, glanced at the unfamiliar address on it, and looked at the old man suspiciously, "Who is the target?" The old man said softly, "Who?" At this time, not only Luo Muye was shocked, but also the other barrier clans who came with him were shocked, "Hey, yes, you heard it right, Saleh II, my brother's son, one of the most beloved sons, I need you to kill him, this is what I and my brother mean." "Why? Wait, I suspect it's a trap now. Luo Muye showed distrustful eyes, and his hand couldn't help touching his waist, the old man didn't move but shook his head with a wry smile and explained, "Polka? Saleh II, one of my brother's most beloved sons, unfortunately he was captured by the people of the Liberation Society, suspecting that he has something to do with harboring Su, I think since you can find here, you must have the ability to know the relationship between us and Su, although Saleh II does not know Su's whereabouts, but he knows the relationship between the clan and Su, he is now captured without explaining because he firmly believes that we will rescue him, but after a long time, no one knows whether he can withstand the interrogation of the Liberation Society, so for the sake of the clan, the information he has cannot be said, only death is the best seal, even if he was once the pillar of the clan, for the sake of the clan.....My brother and I insisted that anyone could be sacrificed. Salim said faintly, a little sad to tell the cruel truth, "I understand, I'm a little scared now, I really don't know if it's good or bad to cooperate with you, we took this task, remember your promise, now give me the information you know about the mission, give me the details, and we will reply to you in three days." Luo Muye was indifferent, and put the note into his chest pocket and looked at the old man named Salim. Then came the whispering of two people exchanging tasks.
A day later, Luo Muye and his team appeared on a barren underground river beach to the west of Xunchi's department, and a few kilometers in front of them was a hidden town where the target of this trip was imprisoned, "Let's act, pay attention to concealment, clear the guard posts little by little, and try not to make a big movement when the operators protect themselves." Luo Muye looked at the rows of black-clothed soldiers who were selected and nodded and ordered, and then the silent crowd began to slowly surround the town along the river beach like ghosts, and it was Luo Muye who only showed his eyes at the front.
A few minutes later
The underground warrior in front of him covered his throat helplessly and fell on the black rock, his throat made a low sound of breaking the air because of the friction of the air, and the convulsions from time to time proved the last struggle of life before parting, "Rest in peace" Luo Muye squatted down and covered the eyes of the underground warrior, looked at the underground warrior in bright armor, shook his head, gently flipped his corpse and took out a ring buckle with many keys from his body, "How many waves is this?" He whispered to the men leaning behind him, "The third wave, my lord!" Frye replied in a low voice, "Keep going, there should be a few more places where we can get close to the target target, and then this is the key to lock the guards at all times, so that the brethren are ready, and the next defense will have nothing to drill into, and we must break through." Luo Muye nodded, and after whispering, he touched forward alone...
