Chapter 222: Returning Home
Recently is a very sensitive time for Alpine Castle.
The inexplicable appearance of the undead has already brought a bit of a terrifying atmosphere to this land. And the mysterious disappearance of the ripper is even more secretive to everyone.
Of course, the follow-up personnel carefully searched the area around the iron mine, and of course found the spatial rift that was not hidden.
At that time, the centaurs who stayed behind in the high mountain fort were about to rush in without saying a word, and no one dared to stop them. After all, in the Alpine fort, there is an insurmountable gap of force between regular soldiers and civilians.
Except for Buckland.
The old man dragged his sluggish and old body in front of the spatial rift, and paused heavily on the crutches in his hand, "Stop!"
"Get out of the way, I won't say it a second time. The centaur rangers' eyes were all red, exuding a bitter and raging murderous aura, so that the surrounding people didn't even dare to breathe.
Buckland has a headache.
He had long known that the group of arrogant soldiers in Gaoshan Fort, once the lord himself was not there, it would be impossible for anyone to control it at all, but he never expected that this day would come so quickly. He thought that he was half buried in the earth, and that he would not have to bear this distress in his lifetime.
"If there's a problem over there that even Richard can't solve, can you pat yourself on your chest and weigh yourself?" he said bitterly.
But the centaur rangers didn't buy it at all, perfectly interpreting what it means to be simple-minded and well-limbed, waving their fists and roaring: "Then let's die together!"
Buckland is an old man in the end, and there is a way to deal with this kind of hot-blooded young man. His whole body suddenly sank down, and he said in the tone that hated iron and steel: "Death?
"Do you know what true maturity is? not to die for the sake of faith, but to struggle to live for the sake of faith, no matter how difficult it is. Because it's easy to die, and to live โ it's hard, it's hard. โ
"I beg everyone, be patient, dormant, and persevere, for I believe that Richard will return one day, and he will surely want to see the Alpine Fort in good order!"
The appropriate background, concise words, and sincere tone suddenly make the plain words have touching and profound power.
If the lord saw this scene, he would definitely be surprised that this old man, who had been wilting all day, actually had such a fierce time.
The centaurs had red eyes, but then put away their lawless appearance and continued to silently take on the duties on their shoulders - patrolling, guarding, training, encircling and suppressing the mummies that appeared every day, never stopping.
And just like that, day by day, week by week, month by month.
They remained faithful to their duties, and as the best warriors in the wilderness, no native was vulnerable to them. Even if there are only a few dozen people, it is enough to maintain the status of the overlord of the wilderness of Alpine Fort.
It's just that occasionally someone will say that their hearts are already cold, like ice under the cold wind.
In a trance, there seems to be an invisible undercurrent, surging under the calm water.
............
In the cold morning, the wilderness seemed to have not yet woken up from its slumber.
In the crack in the space that slowly rotated like water waves, suddenly a warrior with a heavy sword appeared out of thin air, jumped out suddenly, and landed on the ground with a harrier turning over.
Before he could gain a firm foothold, several huge earthy yellow spiders rushed in after him, looking very hideous and terrifying, and they didn't look like they were good. But in front of the swordsman, he didn't even count the soft-footed shrimp, and he easily counted all the accounts with one sword, showing extremely excellent martial arts and quality, and anyone who saw it had to applaud and shout hello.
Several centaurs and elven rangers guarding the spatial rift suddenly fell into a stupor when they saw this scene.
From any angle, the visitor was like, perhaps their esteemed lord, but at the moment he was disgraced, his hair was greasy and sticky to his forehead, and he looked like he hadn't taken a shower for a while.
"Miscalculation, miscalculation. Richard shook his head and sighed.
He overlooked a very important issue โ speed.
Chief Setos said that he would be prepared to fly continuously for at least half a month, and he took it for granted that after half a month of sitting in the hydrogen balloon, he would be able to stand in front of the Chaohu Lake passage and take a step out of the world.
However, Qiqiu can fly for half an hour at most in a day, and the rest of the time is a model of what to eat and what to do.
Therefore, the average speed of the hot air balloon is undoubtedly far from the previous estimate made by Chief Setos. At that time, everyone may have been too excited, and no one noticed the problem, but it was only after Richard set off that he suddenly woke up.
But the lord is such a face-saving person, if he wants everyone to admit that he miscalculated, it is more realistic to expect the sun to appear from the west in the morning.
So Richard decisively chose to bite the bill and move on.
The road stopped and stopped, and after more than two months, the lord finally found the passage of Chaohu Lake in the atlas.
Setos is right, there are many, many of the Titan Cult Clans hereโthe entire towering dark red stone mountain has been carved out of dense caves and passages, like an innumerable magnified ant tide, and countless Cult Cult Clans are shuttling back and forth in it like worker ants.
Mammoths, berserkers, and dryads - they may not have much intelligence, but their extremely strong bodies and bloodthirsty instincts can still bring good fighting power.
There was also a huge amber eyeball suspended directly above the top of the mountain, and as soon as Richard appeared in the field of vision sitting in a hydrogen balloon, this eyeball immediately turned slightly, locking its pupils firmly on Richard's body.
Obviously, this thing should be able to detect it somewhat, and nine times out of ten it is the creation of the Titan.
For a while, it's not so easy to get in. And if it drags on for a little longer, new variables may arise.
The journey home was not as smooth as originally thought. But in the face of such a dilemma, the lord just smiled lightly, showing calm and calm, without half a bit of fireworks.
He has the capital-
In the vast land that he has passed through for the past two months, there are countless sand spiders scattered everywhere, and every time Chiqiu transforms into flight, he will always fall into madness on the spot, chasing targets that can never be reached in the air, and he will not give up.
The sand spiders that had accumulated behind Richard's ass for two months were almost as large as words could describe. They are densely distributed, completely covering every inch of land as far as the eye can see!
The lord used to think that these ghost things were annoying, but now the more he looks at them, the more cute they become - after all, in this world, it is really rare for a thug who is willing to send his family out for free to help punch.
Richard commands Chiqiu to transform one last time and fly towards the Titan's cult minions. The gathered sand spiders suddenly flooded the entire stone mountain like a tsunami!
