Chapter 475: Return, Return
Elliott's departure officially announced that the time was ripe for Xia Lan to plot to capture the vulture, and as it was close to noon, he quickly gathered his guards and rushed towards the Vulture station.
"My lord, is there anything urgent going on?" The bewildered guards said in confusion as they galloped towards the mountains and forests with Xia Lan's horse.
"Early in the morning, I met with Commander Elliot, who had arranged for me to carry out a confidential mission." Xia Lan said casually.
"Confidential mission?" The guards beside him said with wide eyes and stunned.
"It's a big deal, and I'll tell you in detail when the time comes."
Xia Lan didn't say much, and impatiently sent the guards away, and the guards who saw him like this suddenly stopped making a sound, and could only murmur in their hearts.
Quickly arrived at the mountain forest vulture station, the non-commissioned officers who were responsible for taking care of the vulture were enjoying lunch, no one expected Xia Lan's sudden arrival, and the station commander who had had several relationships with Xia Lan hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and asked the reason with a nervous expression.
"Morn, on the orders of Commander Elliot, I have come to select the vultures to carry out the camp on a mission!"
Xia Lan said the words of dealing with the guards again, and with his solemn and solemn appearance, he really gave people a sense of urgency.
"Lord Jabr, according to the military order issued by Commander Elliot, any act of riding a vulture out of the camp must have a permission signed by the commander himself, may I ask your lord, have you brought the commander's order?" The resident governor said calmly.
"Command book? Here you go! Now take us to pick the vultures! ”
Xia Lan took out a curly paper document from her arms and threw it to the other party.
The resident commander hurriedly took the order, carefully read the contents, and confirmed that the commander's signature and seal were correct. He finally relaxed.
"Lord Jabr. Please come with me. Morn put the order in order. He said respectfully to Xia Lan, and then beckoned to the corporal not far away: "All listen to the order, immediately start preparing the configuration of the vulture ride!" ”
Saddles, light armor, weapons.
Soon after Morn gave the order, the soldiers who acted neatly arranged all the equipment for riding the vultures one by one, and Xia Lan and his personal guards, a total of eleven people, boarded the vultures, and flew directly into the air and left without saying a word. Directions: Southwest deep mountains and dense forests!
And that's where Adelina and Winnie Anton are.
As for the order he gave to Morn, of course, it was carefully forged, and he had been studying the forgery for half a month, but fortunately, as an adjutant, he had a large number of documents signed by Elliott in his hand, handwriting imitation, seal private engraving, and all his efforts were for today.
As long as Elliot is not in the camp, he can ride the vultures with the help of forged documents, and the whole process of trying to capture the vultures seems simple, but in fact, it is a matter of courage and timing. If you are not careful, you will fail.
The only thing that worries him is that he will definitely not be able to escape the revelation of his identity and whereabouts afterwards. Right now, the "Radiant Sanctuary" is closely searching for their whereabouts in the Opole area, and once they learn of them, they will definitely launch a fierce pursuit, even if they have the vultures in their hands, can't the "Radiant Sanctuary" chase them from Elanison with the help of the vultures?
Looking back at the camp that gradually disappeared from view, a sneer appeared on Xia Lan's solemn face, hoping that the back hand he left in the camp would give the "Radiant Sanctuary" a great surprise.
……
……
The isolated mountain life for most of the month makes Adelina and Winnie's mental state a little depressed, and it is not pleasant to be afraid to hide and hide all the time, and sometimes they have to pay attention to the attack of wild beasts, snakes and insects at night, although they don't have to worry about food, but the mental level is extremely boring and empty, and the two who were originally not in harmony gradually communicate frequently, but they both know in their hearts that the superficial harmony is just an illusion, and once Xia Lan returns, this harmonious relationship will completely cease to exist.
"It's been twenty-four days, and I don't know how Xia Lan is doing in Opole."
Adelina sat on a green rock in front of the cave, counting the days of Charan's departure with her fingers, looking up at the blue sky and muttering to herself.
"Whatever the outcome, he'll definitely be back in a week anyway." Winnie, who was biting on the bread to satisfy her hunger, slurred her speech.
"It seems that Xia Lan must be in trouble, otherwise he would not have been in Opole for so long." Adelina said with a worried face.
"Rest assured, you have to believe in your man's ability, he has known him so far, and he has never missed anything that is inevitable......" Swallowing the last bite of dry and hard dough, Winnie picked up the bamboo cup filled with mountain spring water next to her and drank it in a big gulp, wiped the cake crumbs and water stains on the side of her mouth, her eyes fell on Winnie in the sun, perhaps, his only failure came from you.
It's a pity that he will eventually get back what he lost in you.
The summer breeze gently swept through the quiet and dense mountain forests, the sun poured through the branches and leaves to pour a little golden mottle, the melodious birdsong drifted in the pine waves, and the murmuring stream of the deep valley was like a wind chime in the mist, sucking the fresh air and the fragrance of flowers and plants, and unconsciously intoxicated.
Yawning lazily, sleepiness crept in, Winnie stretched, and was about to immerse herself in nature to enjoy a nap, but before she could make a move, Adrina next to her suddenly pulled her hand into the cave in an instant.
"I'm sorry, but I detected an unknown group of creatures approaching us in my perceptual alert." Adrina explained nervously leaning against the wall in the cave.
"Could it be that the Radiant Sanctuary has searched us?" Winnie said with a solemn face.
"Probably not, the aura of the Radiant Sanctuary is very unique, and I won't admit it." Adelina shook her head, her mind continuing to focus on perception, "It's a bit bad, those unknown creatures seem to be targeting us...... Hey, wait......"
At this time, Adelinea's eyes lit up, and she said with a look of surprise on her face: "Xia Lan! I've detected Xia Lan's breath! He's in the midst of the unknown creatures coming towards us! ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she pulled Winnie out of the cave again, raising her head and constantly searching for Xia Lan's traces!
"There! I saw him......"
Adrina looked around for a moment, and her keen eyes suddenly spotted the shadows that kept appearing in the sky.
"That's ...... Vultures?! ”
Winnie followed the prestige, and her round eyes couldn't help but be stunned after seeing the gradually clear black shadow in the air.
"Strange, why is Xia Lan following so many people around her?" Adelina muttered to herself.
"I'll find out when he comes down...... Is that a vulture? What a big bird......" Winnie still seemed to be in a state of shock.
Meanwhile.
"My lord! Where the hell are we going?! After following Xia Lan out of the camp for a while, one of the guards could no longer suppress the confusion in his heart and shouted at Xia Lan into the wind.
"The target is there!"
Hearing the voice, Xia Lan stretched out his hand and pointed to the lush mountain forest below.
“…… There's someone down there! Following Charan's direction, the sharp-eyed guards exclaimed, apparently spotting Adelina and Winnie.
"All of them come with me!"
Xia Lan commanded the guards around her as she began to land as she controlled the vultures.
In a moment, everyone settled safely in the relatively flat woodland not far in front of Adelina and the others.
"Charan...... You're ......."
Adelina and Winnie cautiously approached Charan as she disembarked from the vulture, and if it weren't for the familiar aura emanating from him, she wouldn't have recognized Charan's unfamiliar appearance now.
"Living up to expectations, I brought all the vultures with me."
Xia Lan patted the vultures beside her and smiled at her.
"My lord! Do you know them? ”
The guards beside him who were unknown saw that the mysterious girl in the mountains in front of them seemed to know Gabr, and they were all at a loss, especially Adelina was especially inexplicable about what he called.
"Yes, and ...... Your mission has been accomplished. ”
As soon as the words fell, countless pitch-black sword lights crisscrossed the surrounding guards in an instant, and the red blood was splashed on the branches and leaves of the green forest, and when Xia Lan finished collecting the sword, there were dead corpses lying on the ground.
"The situation has changed, now leave with me on a vulture."
There was no extra greeting, and Xia Lan immediately greeted Adrina and the others after changing back to her original appearance.
"Good...... Good! Adelina nodded hurriedly, and then she seemed to remember something, and her delicate little face flushed: "But...... I don't know how to ride a vulture yet! ”
"I ...... Me too. Winnie, who was behind Adelina, chimed in, staring at the fierce Vulture.
After simply telling the two of them how to ride the vulture, looking at the clumsy appearance of the two of them, especially Winnie's connection to the vulture, Xia Lan couldn't help but feel that he had miscalculated, and in the end he could only say that it was better for Winnie to ride a vulture with Adelinea.
With Adelinea's physical qualities and mastery of strength, she must have been able to quickly adapt to riding a vulture, in some ways, riding a vulture is no different from riding a horse, but the former is more dangerous, but no matter how dangerous it is, can it still hurt a strong person with a law?
As expected, half an hour had passed, and Adelina was already soaring through the air on a vulture, while Winnie was still in place.
"Without further ado! We're ready to go! ”
Seeing this, Xia Lan was impatient.
With helplessness and unwillingness, Winnie took Adelinena's vulture, looked at the vultures abandoned in the woodland with reluctance, and said, "What about these vultures?" Don't you want it? ”
"Of course, they will return to the embrace of the mountains and forests!"
If it weren't for the fear that killing them would cause hostility from the vultures riding underneath, Xia Lan would definitely choose to cut the grass and eradicate the roots! (To be continued......)
