Volume I: The Vanishing Land, Chapter 58
After Philoy led the people over the defense line of the Navias Mountains, they stepped into the Hot Wind Jungle, although the name is Jungle, but it is indeed a vast field and pasture, because it is located at the confluence of the Three Rivers, and there are Naviaas Mountains blocking the cold wind in the southwest, so the crops here are very lush, and it is like entering the jungle in it, this is the first harvest season after the ice breaking, they take the cover of dense crops, wandering in the hot wind jungle, Taylor also saw such a scene for the first time in the territory of Red, all he has seen has been a dull, withered image, I never thought that Red would have such a vibrant place.
Along the way, they did not meet Blatter, but found many birds and beasts, it seems that this is not a battlefield, but a farm, the crops in the field are waiting for the farmer to come to harvest, it is hard to imagine, almost every year of war, there can be a place of peace, just north of the mountain range at this time is still war, but here seems so peaceful and quiet.
"Filloi's elite captain?" After going around and following the mark, Taylor and the others met a group of people, and after exchanging codes, the other party came to confirm.
"It's me, you're it?" Philo saw a blue-black military uniform on the other side, which should be Bishop Is's direct personal guard, which she had never seen before.
"In Lower von Neuid, he is subordinate to the Guard, and his official rank is the commander of the thousand, and his subordinates are subordinate to the commander. As he spoke, he led his men to salute Philo.
"Time is running out, let's ignore these false courtesies for the time being, we brought the secret order of Bishop Is, we are limited to one day, find Blatter's quartermaster hoarding in Navias and the Stormy Jungle and destroy it, the time is very tight, tell me what you have found in the past two days?"
"Well, Commander Philoy, you see, this is the garrison near Navias that we have been exploring for the past two days, most of them are just border guards, and there are no high-ranking bratts here, presumably these places are not hoarding places. Von Noyd pulled out their map of the survey, and a group of people sat on the ground, pointing to the red dots they had marked on the map, all of which had already been explored.
"That's right, if it is a military supply area, Blatter will definitely concentrate strong forces to garrison, we came from the exit of the western front of Navias, and we didn't see too many Blat, presumably they should concentrate their heavy troops on the northern front, where the terrain is the most complicated and easy to defend. Philoy said, pointing to the northern areas on the map that they hadn't yet explored.
"You're right, we didn't meet too many Blats when we came out of the southern front, but there was a problem on the northern front, we tried to go north through the Hot Wind Jungle on the way to your arrival, but on the way we found Blatter's Flying Wing Legion, they were patrolling non-stop in the northern garrison and the northern line of the Hot Wind Jungle, if we rushed forward, so many of us would definitely be discovered by them, so we didn't continue to go deeper, so I think it is likely to be a place for military stockpiling, and the northern line of the Rinavias checkpoint is the closest, which is also conducive to supplies。 However, at the southeast passage, I also met Brett's people, who were supposed to come from the Plains of Paris. Von Noyd said.
"What are they doing?" asked Philoy.
"Nothing was done, just routine patrols, and except for a few brats who would enter and leave the plains of Paris, all other brats were forbidden to pass. After listening to von Noyd's words, Philoy stood up and looked out over the endless hot wind jungle.
"What do you think, Lord Taylor?" Philoy asked Taylor's opinion.
"The Blatter Flying Wing Legion, I have seen it in Brett before, but most of them are around the vicinity of the Sanctuary, and rarely appear in other places, and they are generally important targets for arch guards, and there will not be many of them, so I agree with His Excellency von Neuyd's idea, there must be something on the northern front, and it is very likely that it is a quartermaster hoard, but the Flying Wing Legion is a nuisance, they can look down on the ground from a high altitude, and if we have so many people going, they will definitely find out, so I think the fewer people who go to the northern front, the better. Taylor said, looking at the map.
"Lord Taylor, this is too dangerous!" von Noyd heard Taylor say this, and it was obvious that he wanted to go alone, so he strongly objected, but Philoy did not say anything, believing that Taylor must have done so for a purpose.
"Your Excellency von Neuid, don't be in a hurry, listen to me. Taylor said with a smile: "The fewer of us, the more convenient it is to move, and we don't want to fight with them, as long as we complete the task and destroy their food, grass and ordnance, it is more advantageous to have fewer people, I want to know if there are any sacrifices in your team?"
"Yes, I am. From behind them, a man in black and white robes walked out, and Taylor glanced at him, his body was huge, almost carved out of the same mold as Kule, could it be that Red's sacrifices were so strong?
"Do you sense the concentration of the aura of those Flying Wing Legions?" the sacrificial perception came in handy at this time.
"Yes, the Patrol Wing Blat's aura concentration is almost as good as the level 7 breath skill. "The Red Sacrifice returns.
"Level 7 skills, that means we can't evade their surveillance by moving, Flying Wing Blat, who can use level 7 breath skills, generally has a breath skill called Rushing Power, they can increase their speed to the limit in a very short time, even if the high-level breathers are not good at speed, they can't catch up with the Flying Wing Legion, so we have to have someone to draw their attention, Lord Philoy, there is a canyon here, is there a way to lure these Flying Wing Legions here?" On the map, Taylor saw a small ravine not far from the Blatter Wings on the North Line.
"It's too close to the Blatter station on the northern front, and even if you bring them here, they'll be back to the station very quickly. Filloi said.
"It doesn't matter, we just need to make sure that there are no wings in the air when we dive in, and as long as we get in, it's easy to do. Taylor said, as long as he wasn't in the sky, he had a way to get out of Blatter's eyes.
"Canyon ......" Filloy thought for a moment and then said to Taylor, "No problem, I can lure all the Flying Wing Legions away, what else do you need?" Filloy understood what Taylor meant.
"Well, I need a white breather, preferably with a level 8 breath skill, or a black breather with a level 9 breath skill. Taylor said to Philoy.
"That's easy, I'll just go with you with von Neuid. Filloe said, Taylor was a little surprised, von Noyd looked so young, he could already use the level 9 breath skill, he looked like he was only a year or two older than Taylor.
"No, there needs to be enough chips on the front to attract the Flying Wing Legion, otherwise they won't leave the station easily, so let's do a feint with the team, Lord Philoy, and Your Excellency von Neud and I will attack the Blatter station. Taylor said.
"Alright, do as you say. Filloi hesitated, but decided to trust Taylor's judgment.
So Taylor and von Noyd and two red breathers and a large army of soldiers approached the north of the hot wind jungle in two ways, and when they reached the border, Taylor could already see the flying wing Blatt patrolling in the distant sky, different from the Blatter on the ground, the body was even bigger, their arms were already connected to the wings, and the originally strong lower limbs had also degenerated into tail wings that could ensure the balance of the body because of long-term flight in the sky, Taylor observed the flying wing Blatt so closely, and he found that almost all of this Blat's breath was concentrated in the wings, so he could use the breath to amplify his wings and fly quickly。
As the sky grew darker, the hot wind jungle turned from tranquil to silent, except for the occasional howl of one or two wild beasts, and there was silence around them, as if they could hear everyone's heartbeat. The reason why he chose to attack at night was because Blatter's eyesight was the worst at night, even though the flying wing Blatter had a certain night vision, but the range of vision was not as good as that of the day, so after nightfall, Taylor saw that the original two flying wing Blatter reconnaissance for a team had now become four, and it was no longer a single route, but a circular reconnaissance around a fixed area.
As the night grew darker, Taylor and the others calmed down, fearing that the slightest movement would alert Bratt, when suddenly, they heard a loud explosion not far from the northern front station, and then saw a series of black shadows begin to move at high speed near Navias and the Hot Wind Jungle.
"Ready. Taylor whispered. As Taylor expected, the patrolling winged Blatt did not go to support immediately, and after a while, there were screams in the canyon marked on the map, and the Blatter above their heads in front of them began to retract continuously, and a fire broke out in the canyon, countless breath skills and screams continued to come, and finally these flying wings Blatt began to go to support, but they were all cautious, and the reason for the aura to increase their wings, shuttling back and forth between the canyon and the station, the speed was extremely fast, they were only a few positions away from the station, so that they only needed a moment to return to the defense station, but this moment was enough。
"Let's go!" Taylor gave an order, and the two red breathers who accompanied him instantly exerted bloodthirsty rapidity on Taylor and von Noyd, with Taylor's light magic circle and von Noyd's shadow step, almost a breath, Taylor and von Noyd had already come to the gate of the station, Taylor sensed that there were eight Blats at the door, so the breath sealing circle was instantly completed and thrown at the door, these Blatter could not feel the breath in the body and the outside world at that moment, with von Noyd's desolate breath, further reducing the perception of all the surrounding units, they rushed to the station and found a hidden place to hide。 The Blatter at the door only felt in a trance, and they shook their heads and looked around, but they didn't find any trace.
Soon, all the winged Blatts in the canyon returned, and the breath skills and shouts became less and less, and according to the plan, after Philoyi introduced the chased Blatt into the canyon, they disappeared, giving Blatter the illusion that they were just a scout force.
"This is indeed a place where Blatter is hoarding munitions. Taylor looked at thousands of granaries and countless weapons, not only that, but there were also some huge siege weapons, giant bows, chariots, breath cannons, etc., but the way these weapons were displayed and the quality categories looked less like Blatter could make and use, but more like a human army.
"What's going on?" von Neuid also noticed the abnormality, he had never seen them use these weapons after fighting Blatter for so long, Blatter believed in his own strength and disdained to use these weapons that didn't seem to have any momentum, so these must not be Blatter's things.
"Two, since you're here, don't hide, come to the Chinese army camp, just have a glass of wine together, how about it?" Suddenly, Taylor sensed the presence of an extremely powerful aura in the Blatter station, and then von Neuid and himself heard this passage ringing in their ears. In a short time, they were surrounded by Blatter, and the two of them were taken to the tent of the Chinese army.
The two of them were taken blindfolded to a large camp, and Taylor felt the smell of wine, which smelled like Brett's Mingluo, and the smell of barbecued meat, and the sound of singing and dancing, not at all like Blatter's station.
After taking off their blindfolds, Taylor and von Noyd were pierced by the bright light in front of them, and it took them a while to get used to it, and they saw that there were not only all kinds of food around, but also drumming, singing and dancing, and the people sitting in the hall were all in human form Blat, except for the human at the top, who were indulging in singing and drinking here, and they were so unhappy.
"Please, two. After Taylor and von Noyd were lifted, they were taken to a seat with a puzzled look on their faces, and the food and wine were placed in front of them. What is going on? Taylor and von Noyd looked at each other and muttered to themselves, who the hell is he? What is going on in front of you?
