Chapter 123: The Runaway Knight
"My lord, it's not good. β
As soon as Lin Xiu walked out of the secret realm, Alex rushed over.
"What's the matter?" Lin Xiu asked in an unhappy mood, not saying this not to Alix, but to anger that Wren had ruined his good deeds.
Thinking of this, Lin Xiu glared at Wren fiercely.
But now Wren has gotten into the eye of money, holding a silver ring, taking out a prop, and an old chrysanthemum blooming on his face.
"Our men have used the Eye of the Earth to discover that a knight who had followed Lord Milne had fled. Alex said.
"Ran away?" Lin Xiu glanced at Milne behind him, shook his head and said, "Run, run, it's not a big deal." β
"No, it's not like that, the knight had slept all night exploring the surroundings of the canyon before escaping. Alex said.
"Since it's my people who have a problem, I'm going to deal with it. Milne walked out with a gloomy face.
As smart as Milne, it naturally occurred to him that this was not a simple desertion incident.
This knight was simply a spy that Thor had placed in his ranks, in order to find out the exact location of the camp in the canyon and prepare for the dispatch of troops.
The only thing that pained him was why his father had been kind to these soldiers in the past, and why they chose to defect when Sharp needed them most.
"Forget it, I'll send someone. β
Lin Xiu shook his head: "The terrain of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range is complex, and there is fog that interferes with the line of sight, if you go to chase it, I'm afraid that people won't catch it, but you will lose yourself." β
Milne looked at Lin Xiu apologetically: "Then it's troublesome." β
Lin Xiu looked at Alex: "Who found the fleeing knight? β
"Yes, sir. β
Alex walked away quickly, Milne lowered his head and faced Lin Xiu, his face flushed: "Lord Lin Xiu, I'm sorry, we have caused you trouble." β
Lin Xiu motioned to Milne to raise his head: "There's nothing to be sorry for, any bird will have it when the forest is big, and this time it's Thor's conspiracy, you don't need to blame yourself." β
After this incident, Lin Xiu thought of Hammond's side, the loyal servants of the Hammond villagers naturally did not need to be suspicious, but those civilians who had newly joined Hammond still lacked loyalty to Hammond, and if they wanted to take charge of important positions, they had to pass the test of loyalty.
This matter can be mentioned to Li Yan when he returns to Hammond in the future.
Back at the mansion, Lin Xiu took out the "Imperial Sword Heart Sutra" and studied it.
The time slowly came to midnight.
Sawyer took people back and met Lin Xiu in the study.
"Didn't anyone catch up?" Lin Xiu saw Sawyer, who was full of decadence, and beckoned him to sit down.
Sawyer sat down on the stool and said angrily, "My lord, the speed at which that cavalry burst out is not at all what a knight should have. I think what happened to Milne was a faΓ§ade and what they really wanted was our Canyon Camp. β
Sawyer originally thought that Lin Xiu would be furious when he heard the news, but Lin Xiu didn't even raise his head, continued to stare at the "Imperial Sword Heart Sutra", and said lightly: "It's okay, although the canyon camp is hidden, after all, it is on the periphery of the mountain range, and it is only a matter of time before it is found." β
"My lord, why aren't you in a hurry? The other party is coming for us, and it may not be two days before a large army will kill us. Sawyer said anxiously.
"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, just right, we can set up ambushes along the way to snipe them, compared to fighting in the wilderness or cities, letting the enemy take the initiative to enter our main battlefield can greatly reduce our casualties. Lin Xiu slowly closed the page.
sighed slightly in his heart, cultivating immortals is really not an easy thing.
The Edgeworth Heart Sutra only records the cultivation methods that have reached the Jindan period, but it would take hundreds of years for this to happen.
This immortal cultivator is completely compared to the heavens, who lives longer!
"But we're not ready! our houses haven't been built yet, and the slaves haven't been converted into fighting power, and the only ones who can fight are us and our orc brothers. Sawyer said.
The previous battle had always been with monsters, but what Sawyer really wanted to say was that he and them weren't ready to kill.
Even if they took the Sharp wall, they only knocked the city guards unconscious, and did not kill the killers.
"How can there be any perfect preparation?" Lin Xiu got up and sighed: "Since ancient times, wars have always been filled with human lives, and if you want to not die, you can only make yourself stronger, stronger, stronger than everyone on the battlefield." β
"Only then can you live, and we can live. β
Sawyer lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head: "My lord, I understand, I will go to a few clan patriarchs to discuss countermeasures now." β
"Go ahead. β
After Sawyer left, Lin Xiu took off his light disguise and fell into a deep helplessness, as Sawyer said, they were not ready.
Although the props brought out of the secret realm are not strong, they are good things that can save their lives for low-level professionals who only have a first or second order.
In the long run, they have more and more good things on them, and it is not difficult to survive on the battlefield.
As for the Secret Realm of Trials, although the canyon camp has been built, it has been busy with housing construction during this time and has not yet been put into use.
The Trial Secret Realm is not like the Adventure Secret Realm, time is the same flow rate as the real world, and Lin Xiu does not plan to send people in until he settles down the rear.
At the end of the day, they're still short of time!
However, now that the battle had begun, Lin Xiu naturally would not sit idly by.
Put on your coat and walk out of the mansion.
Facing the frost and snow, Lin Xiu knocked on the door of the pharmacy.
The door was opened by a middle-aged woman: "My name is Melnatha, and I am happy to serve the adults." β
"No need to be polite, let me ask you how many potions suitable for combat do you have here now?" Lin Xiu said straight to the point.
Melnasha introduced Lin Xiu to the store.
"I have healing potions here, two silver wolves in a bottle. β
Melnasha placed a small red bottle on the table, Lin Xiu opened it and sniffed it, these brown powders were filled with a strong smell of medicine.
"This is a berserk potion, which can increase combat power by 50%, and costs 5 silver wolves"
"It can restore 30% of its physical strength at one time, and the physical strength potion costs 1 silver wolf. β
"There is also a magic potion that restores 30% of mana at once, and costs 1 silver wolf. β
"This is a bursting potion, which can be used as a hidden weapon at a critical moment, or it can be thrown directly into the enemy's pile, and the price is 10 silver wolves. β
"There is also this poison pill, as long as one is put into the enemy's drinking water, ordinary people will die violently, and the first-order professional will be weak, and if he is not treated in time, he will also lose his life. Priced at 1 Golden Dragon"
"And the Mad Demon Pill...... Blinding and scattering ...... Loose bones......"
Zero and zero, Melnasha took out more than ten kinds of pills, compared to the conventional healing pills, those pills that brought people into despair opened Lin Xiu's eyes.
Especially the poison pill, which calmed Lin Xiu's uneasy mood all of a sudden.
Even if the Tor sent people to invade, in the context of the Middle Ages, it was impossible to bring too much dry food, and when they saw the water source, they would definitely make a fire for cooking.
When the time comes, they only need to put the poison pill into the water source along the way, and they can easily defeat the invading enemy army.
