Chapter 101: The World Is Quiet
Time passed day by day, on the fifth day, at night, a million skeletons went out again, digging the ground into dust, as the number of shovel sacks increased in the past few days, and dozens of urgently produced wheelbarrows were put into use, the skeletons dug faster and faster, and a large pit had been dug a kilometer away from the city wall.
On the city wall, Hopeless stood with another middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes, looking at the scene of the skeletons working under the city wall from a distance, and their eyes flashed with a slight arcane light, which was the effect of arcane magic, dark vision.
The flying dust made the gorgeously dressed middle-aged man fan his nose in disgust, and asked puzzledly: "Hopeless, have these skeletons only been digging for five days?"
"Yes, Master Leo, they've been digging all night, and they've been digging all the dirt under the cliff on the left, and they don't know what they're going to do. Hopless respectfully complied.
As the first successor to the Southern Duchy, Hopeless's position in the country is below one person and above ten thousand, but there are still several people who need his full respect, and Master Leo is one of them.
There are many people who can be called masters, such as magic masters, blacksmiths, and singing masters, but Leo is one of the more special masters, he is a master tactician.
More than ten years ago, he smashed open the door of the Grand Duke's Mansion with a long letter, in which he expounded the advantages and disadvantages of the Principality's northern strategy, and many points were pointed out in the heart of the Grand Duke.
Master Leo also lived up to his expectations, starting from actual cases, he analyzed many historical local conflicts and full-scale wars on the continent, analyzed their causes from a strategic perspective, analyzed their advantages and disadvantages from a tactical level, and put the principality into the environment at the time, and told how to make the principality absorb the maximum benefits.
It's the truth, and the sky is falling. He also often lamented that the mainland has been peaceful for hundreds of years, and a master tactician like him has long been useless. This is a master tactician who has never fought a war.
And he once analyzed that the defense of the southern grinding iron city was laborious and costly, and it was necessary to create local conflicts, and use this as an excuse to urge the alliance countries to increase allocation.
However, the other side of the conflict could not be found, and the plan could not be implemented.
Now that the steel bones are out of the mountain and the undead natural disaster has reappeared, this is no longer a local conflict, and it is likely to brew into a full-scale war that will affect the entire continent.
Hopeless invited Master Leo over as soon as possible, hoping that he could analyze the future direction of this conflict from a strategic perspective.
Leo arrived slowly, for it took him five days to arrive, for he refused to sit on the griffin, and when he arrived, he went up to the city wall overnight, and observed for a long time without any conclusion.
"The analysis of strategy and tactics needs to be based on known intelligence, and I don't even know the number, weapons, and means of these skeletons. Leo said.
Hopeless nodded, and continued to tell the information he had obtained: "There are about two million skeletons under the city walls, I sent griffons to scout the wasteland to Rose Town, there are traces of large-scale biological activity along the way, and the steel bone collar is still adding troops here, and the final number may reach tens of millions." ”
When he heard two million, Leo felt a little weak, and when he heard the ten million level, he subconsciously pressed it back, so as not to fall and make a fool of himself.
This press happened to press on the maid who came up with the kettle, and directly overturned the kettle, and the drink in the kettle was sprinkled on his luxurious clothes.
Leo slapped his backhand on the maid's body: "How do you do things?
The maid turned pale with fright, quickly knelt on the ground, and said in a panic: "I'm sorry master, I'm sorry master, I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it." ”
The kneeling posture outlines the maid's thrilling waistline.
Hopeless couldn't help but salute slightly when he saw it, quickly looked away, and sighed secretly in his heart.
This Master Leo is very knowledgeable and can speak well, but there is one thing that is very bad, he is too tyrannical, and he treats his subordinates with a slight disappointment. Now that the maid had spilled his favorite garment, he would certainly have been beaten badly, but it was a pity that he was so attractive.
However, Hopless was not going to say anything, the person was brought by Leo himself, even if he was killed, it was his own business, and Hopless would not go to provoke Leo's displeasure for a mere maid.
Sure enough, Leo was not satisfied after slapping him, beckoned to take the horsewhip from the guard's hand, and whipped it down forcefully, scolding while pumping: "I can't do any work at all, waste, I have raised you for so many years, and I will kill you if you lose my hands and feet." ”
Whether it's the tone or the posture, there is a look of annoyance.
As soon as the whip went down, a blood mark instantly overflowed under the maid's thin gauze clothes, but she didn't dare to move, and she didn't dare to cry because she knew that the more she struggled and cried, the heavier Leo's pervert would be, and more than one maid in the house had died at his hands.
Leo scolded and whipped at the same time, venting the pressure brought to him by those two numbers, two million, tens of millions, in the face of absolute numbers, strategy and tactics are all bullshit.
The movement on the city wall alarmed Luo Qiu, he looked up and asked, "What happened up there?"
Mobuck, who was on duty, floated up and said as he watched, "Your Majesty, it seems that someone is beating people there." ”
"What do you mean by beating someone?" Luo Qiu asked puzzled.
"It's as if a nobleman was whipping a maid. "Mobuck floated to a height of forty meters, a little higher than the city wall, and he could only see it clearly from a high vantage point.
"What the hell?" Luo Qiu asked a question mark: "Our soldiers are coming to the city, the army is besieging the city, and they are whipping the maids on such a serious occasion? What does this mean? Don't take us seriously? Or is it a provocation?"
"Provocation, this is definitely a provocation Your Majesty, we have worked hard for a few days to dig the soil, and they still have the leisure to beat people and play, obviously they don't take us seriously. Mobuck said indignantly.
"Bow on, Teddy, get me up. After Luo Qiu finished speaking, Teddy squatted down and walked with his hands in support.
Luo Qiu stepped on Teddy's palm, and with a fierce force, Luo Qiu flew straight into the air forty or fifty meters in the air.
The skeleton of an average person is only one-fifth of his body weight, and Luo Qiu's bones are metalized and a little heavier, about seventy catties, but under the power of the golden skull, it is not too easy to throw seventy catties of things forty or fifty meters.
Luo Qiu, who flew into the air, soon saw the nobleman wielding the whip, and as soon as he let go of his hand, the arrow was shot, and before he could rise to the top, the nobleman's shouting and scolding stopped abruptly, and the whole world was quiet.
