Chapter Twenty-Six: Razor Ridge
The night is blurry, shrouded in starlight, and the fog that remains in this world forever surrounds every corner of the night, revealing a mysterious and unpredictable atmosphere.
A black night bird soaring with its wings spread, hovering in the dim glow. If you look down from its view, there is a vast wilderness of great and intricate towns.
Within the scope of the whole town, there are mountains, lakes, forests, fields, and countless high-rise buildings, iron and stone towers, densely packed with tens of thousands.
A large number of bright and dark lights are dotted for hundreds of miles, reflecting the prosperous atmosphere. Even at night, there are many figures busy shuttling back and forth.
Dozens of wide avenues wind their way out of the town and radiate into the area in all directions. Then at the end of the road, there are steel fortresses that rise into the sky.
Around the steel fortress, there are patches of undulating barracks. Outside these barracks, a large number of soldiers patrolled in formations, revealing an atmosphere of slaughter.
This huge town overlooking at night includes the surrounding mountains and forests, as well as the hills and cliffs, collectively known as "Razor Ridge", which is the base camp of the Wild Wolves in the Land of Three Ridges.
At this moment, in the center of the town, occupying a huge area, the complex of buildings is luxurious and grand, like a palace, in a spacious and luxurious hall.
A staggeringly expensive petal wine glass, studded with gold and silver reliefs and surrounded by colorless gemstones, was smashed to the ground and shattered.
The Baron of Bones, the most famous, prestigious, powerful, and grumpy man in the Land of the Three Ridges, stood beside his throne and glared angrily at Hussein, who was kneeling at the foot of the steps.
"You still have the face to come back?"
The voice of the Baron of Bones almost lifted the dome of the entire hall. A huge buzzing sound, swirling around every corner, was like a thunderbolt exploding.
He has an angular and broad-jawed face, long black hair combed back, pale yellow hairs on his cheeks, and cold lightning flashing in his eyes, looking like an awe-inspiring middle-aged nobleman.
But in fact, as everyone knows, Baron Bones is over sixty years old, and has been in charge of the entire Razor Ridge for forty years of glory, with 80,000 wolf people under his command.
Hussein knelt on one knee in silence with his head down, not daring to make the slightest defense, his face was pale, and sweat was already sliding down his forehead.
In Razor Ridge, no werewolf dares to face the wrath of the Baron of Bones. It's an irresistible pressure. Although the strength of the White Bone Baron is also "elite transcendental" on the surface, it is the transcendent of the extraordinary - the "original transcendent".
Primordial transcendental, the higher the level, the more terrifying the increase in strength. Because the original transcendent can control two to three Force attributes at the same time, he has an insurmountable advantage in skill play.
Although Hussein is also an elite and extraordinary, ten Husseins tied together are not the opponent of the White Bone Baron. It's a huge gap in strength, a huge difference in the nature of the Force.
And this is also why Hussein, who has always been brave and good at fighting, will retreat when facing Li Mo. Because the danger of fighting against the Primordial Transcendent was too great, and there were too many unpredictable factors, Hussein did not dare to gamble, so he could only flee in shame.
"Lord Baron, why does the Yuexi Mining Area have such a high defense power? Isn't it suspicious? According to intelligence, Sentinel Ridge and Treading Wind Ridge have joined forces, and the Yuexi Mining Area is not far from Sentinel Ridge. ”
A cold voice came from the shadows of the curtain behind the throne.
The voice is undoubtedly a woman, but it lacks the delicacy of a woman, with a clattery and hoarseness, showing another unique charm.
The entire razor ridge, and even the vast majority of the land of the Three Ridges, knew a name, a name hidden in the shadows behind the Baron of Bones - Hasting.
Hasting, the head of the three generals, is also the most trusted number one henchman of the White Bone Baron. In addition, he is also the chief pharmacist and chief staff officer of Razor Ridge.
No one had ever seen Hasting's true face, and some even speculated that she wasn't a wolf at all. There are even more vicious rumors that she is not a woman, but the companion of Baron Bones' alternative hobby.
In short, no matter how rumors and speculations are made by the outside world, Hastings will always stand behind the Bone Baron. As long as she says it, the Baron of Bones will pay attention to it.
Sure enough, after Hastings spoke, the anger of the White Bone Baron was slightly suppressed, and he slowly sat back on the throne, his eyes swept over Hussein, and he said in a deep voice: "You said that William and you were separated in the chaos?
Hussein said respectfully without changing his face: "Sure, Lord Baron." I believe it won't be long before William returns to Razor Ridge. ”
"As a loser, what is your advice?" said the Baron of Bones coldly.
Hussein bowed deeply and said in a deep voice: "I will gather more wolf warriors as soon as possible to set foot in the Yuexi mining area and wash away the shame on my body." ”
The white bone baron was expressionless, closed his eyes slightly, slowly opened them again, and said, "What do you think, Hasting." ”
The voice with a unique charm said again, "Lord Baron, my suggestion is to prioritize the battle of the Sweetwater Oasis. The addition of Sentinel Ridge adds to the variables of this battle. Baron Tyrone's ambition was enough to sustain him in his risky adventure. ”
"Although the centaurs have sent us strong enough reinforcements, the battle is still very anxious. And you're at the critical moment of promotion and can't play. Then Baron Tyrone will be desperate to keep the warriors of Razor Ridge out of the oasis. ”
Hastings said, pondering for a moment, and then said: "The output of the Yuexi mining area has been decreasing day by day, and the potential for exploration is not great. We are only giving up temporarily, and once the Battle of the Oasis is secured, General Hussein will be able to make a comeback and regain the lost ground. ”
The Baron of Bones squinted, looked at Hussein, and said slowly: "After William returns, you and him continue to the third fortress of the oasis to make meritorious contributions. ”
"Yes, honorable baron!" Hussein bowed deeply.
"If William hadn't come back to Razor Ridge. The Baron of Bones stood up, his burly and muscular figure seemed to cast a shadow over Hussein, "Then you will use your life and blood to fill the Moon Creek mining area and raze it to the ground, understand?"
Hussein's face was already in a cold sweat, and he hung his head in silence.
It took a long time for Hussein to come back to his senses.
The Baron of Bones is gone, and now is the critical moment for him to advance to the rank of "Epic Extraordinary". If it hadn't been for the fact that something had happened to Hussein and William, he would never have shown up.
A black robe as dark as black mist swirled in front of Hussein's eyes.
Hasting's whole body was shrouded in black robes, and her figure was thin, but there seemed to be a looming mystery that set her off, looking vague and unpredictable, sometimes tall, sometimes ordinary.
"Thank you for your help, I will repay you. Hussein stood up and nodded to Hasting.
"Without William's presence, your reward would not be worth mentioning to me. Hastings said lightly, not giving Hussein any face.
Hussein also seemed to be accustomed to her indifference and indifference, took a deep breath, and said in a low voice: "30,000 gold pounds, are you ready?"
"Out of the city, in the fortress to the south, my own soldiers have been arranged. Hastings threw out a key, "You arranged for your henchmen to pay the ransom, and you can't leave easily at the moment, so as not to arouse the suspicion of others." ”
"Good ......" Hussein took the key and was about to say something, but the Hastings in front of him had already drifted away, like a black light smoke, disappearing behind the curtain.
"Why are you so good to William? Is that rumor true?" Hussein secretly guessed in his heart, but he didn't dare to reveal it in the slightest.
Compared with the white bone baron's moodiness and outgoing temperament, Hasting's restrained and hidden coldness made Hussein feel even more depressed and uneasy.
"Ransom ......" Hussein's eyes showed an extremely hateful young man on the head of the city in the Yuexi mining area.
"One day this shame will be washed away with blood!"
Hussein, with a grim face, turned and left, hurrying to the fortress south of the city.
