Chapter 1 The Gate of Desire Section 97 Rushing to the aid of Fog Rose Town
In Jinyun Mountain, Ayuqi, the king of Kaiyang, has always been lukewarm to Wuenqi, and he does not listen to his words, even if he returns to Jinyun Mountain, Wuenqi can probably only do nothing. Thinking of all the unhappiness in the Cloud Mountain, Wu Enqi didn't want to go back even more.
What's more, the alliance of the three clans of the demon clan has been divided by him, and the demon emperor Tak Eberon has a grudge against Nagrede, the king of the Void Phantom Demon, and it is naturally impossible for the Void Phantom Demon's warship to be dispatched. And the Fire Demon King Akleseyeh has already sided with the Demon Emperor, and they may not be able to go all out when they attack the Cloud Mountain. As for the Six-Winged Heavenly Demons, their combat power is vain, and they are not to be feared.
The courage of the boat people is not inferior to that of the demons, but the strict discipline, extraordinary skills and proficient tactics of the boat people far surpass the demons. In Wu Enqi's opinion, it was simply impossible for the three-clan alliance of the Six-Winged Heavenly Demon, the Void Phantom Demon, and the Flame Demon to capture Qiyun Mountain. However, thinking of his mother and sister, Unqi hesitated again, even if it was for them, he should go back and report his safety.
Unqi touched his empty pockets, he had spent a lot of money in the Demon City of Desire, but now he wanted to buy a boat and return home, but he was shy in his pocket. In the past, it seemed to be extremely easy to make money in the magic capital, but now it has become extremely difficult to return to Jinglan Harbor.
The next morning, Unch and Anne had a simple breakfast. Then Unqi left the sea cliff and went to the Adventurers' Guild to find Mr. Pandom, not to mention Unki's reputation in the magic capital, but in the remote Raiding Harbor, his reputation was still stuck at the moment when he defeated Siddle on the dueling table.
Unch met with Mr. Pandom, and he didn't feel that he had met someone he shouldn't have seen, and Mr. Pandom was still enthusiastic, but when Unch mentioned the purchase of the boat, Mr. Pandom shook his head. Mr. Pandom told Unchi that not to mention the long-distance flying ships, even small boats that could only be found in the near sea had recently been regulated, because these were extraordinary times.
Unch returned to the sea cliff disappointed and played with Anne. Dudu has grown a lot, it is three meters long, it is fierce enough to eat leopards and bite tigers to death, it is a monster with a low IQ, but it is very loyal.
Wu Enqi asked Anne if there were any other difficulties besides the fact that Qingyun Castle was taken away and could not be taken back for the time being. Anne thought about it, she really had a thing that she was quite embarrassed about recently, February 14 of this year was Miss Monica's wedding, and as Miss Monica's little best friend, Anne didn't have any gifts to offer.
Anne's remark reminded Unki, who was also invited to Miss Monica's wedding. A beautiful girl will marry a woman after all, and its irreversible trend is like the sun sinking in the west and the night falling. Unqi and Anne calculated the time, there were still ten days left before the wedding, although the time was not short, but the two of them were almost penniless, so they were at a loss.
Wu Enqi thought about it, the so-called gift is good when it arrives, and I believe that Miss Monica is not lacking in their meager gifts. Having made up their minds, Unki used the Silt Witchcraft to summon the crystal white crystal clay, and they planned to make a model of the Pearl Mountain from the crystal clay and give it to Miss Monica as a gift.
Pearl Mountain is located in the northwest of Xinglan Ancient Land, 19 peaks are adjacent to Xiongqi Mingxiu, there are nine valleys and seven gorges in the mountain, covering an area of about 800 miles, connecting the land arteries of Xinglan Ancient Land from east to west. The largest port at the southern foot of Pearl Mountain is Jinglan Port, and there are actually six small cities at the northern foothills, and Wumei Town is just a smaller mountain city deep into the mountains and forests. On the northeast side of Pearl Mountain is the territory of the Six-Winged Heavenly Demon, and on the southwest side of Pearl Mountain is the kingdom of the Titan Thunder Demon.
Unqi is keen on strategy, he is familiar with the terrain of Pearl Mountain, and with Unqi's memory, it didn't take long for a snow-white Pearl Mountain to be erected on top of the cliff. Then Unchi and Anne entered the time of meticulous carving. It can take a morning, a day, or a whole day to carve a mountain.
Unch was very attentive, and so was Anne, until the 8th of February, when the Horned Demon Tred and his wife Cecily returned from their union assignments, that the miniature Pearl Mountain was sculpted. The Treds are embarrassed to see Unki, who they hear that Unch and Anne are preparing wedding gifts for Miss Monica, but they look at each other.
Tred said: "Misty Rose Town has now been occupied by the Flame Demon, who knows if the original lord is still there, even if the lord's young lady wants to get married, it shouldn't be held in the Misty Rose Manor, you two don't prepare for it in vain?"
Anne was taken aback when she heard this, but Unqi scolded herself for being confused. The fat man Heduo had already told him that the Fifth Demon King, Fuma Bodi, planned to cede the area of Pearl Mountain to the Fire Demon, and the Dream Garden Tavern moved because of this, but Unqi ignored this matter.
Annie was a little worried, and Uenqi was even more worried, and the two of them immediately rode the Three-Pupiled Demon Wolf and left the Shocking Harbor to cross the mountains and mountains and rush to the direction of Fog Rose Town. There were many emigration demons in the mountains and forests, and Uenqi stopped them and asked them for news.
A demon merchant who moved from the southern foot of Pearl Mountain to Jinglan Harbor told Wu Enqi that an order suddenly came out of the Demon Capital to let the local lords at the southern foot of Pearl Mountain hand over their territories to the Yan Demon, and the lords of the five small towns obediently surrendered their territories because they were unable to fight against the Yan Demon occupation army. Bertrand Karfin, the lord of Misty Rose, is still fighting.
Unqi said: "I am familiar with the Misty Rose Manor, the defenses there are extremely strong, and the fire demons have not succeeded in trying to capture them. ”
The merchant said: "It should be so, but in order to prevent the local lord from disobeying his orders, Fuma Bodi transferred all the garrison knights of the six towns to the front line of Qiyun Mountain in advance, and there are at most a dozen old, weak, sick and disabled people left in the Fog Rose Manor, and they are afraid that they will not be able to stop the wolf-like fire demon." ”
Unqi scolded the ancestor of the Fifth Demon King, and he and Anne urged the demon wolf to continue on their way at a gallop. There is an outpost of the Thunder Demon Kingdom between the Titan Thunder Demon Kingdom and the Six-Winged Heavenly Demon Territory, and five holy crystals are charged for passing back and forth, Anne handed them the earrings she carried, and the two of them successfully entered the southern foot of Pearl Mountain.
When they finally arrived at the outskirts of Misty Rose Town, they saw the Flame Banner of the Flame Demon hanging on the bell tower of Misty Rose Castle. The town of Misty Rose and the Misty Rose Manor have long since fallen.
Galloping all the way, the two of them and the wolf were exhausted, but they didn't have time to rest before they rushed directly into the town of Fog Rose. In the square in the middle of the town hangs a bloody corpse that Unki recognizes, and it belonged to Bertrand Karfin, the six-winged demon.
Unki's face twitched, and he walked over with a calm face.
Anne grabbed him: "What are you going to do?"
Wu Enqi said, "I'll go and ask those fire demons, what happened?"
Anne said, "Brother, you're crazy! When did you become so uncalm?"
Unch nodded, he was not very calm.
Unch took a breath and steadied himself, and on the opposite side of the Misty Rose Town Square, the Adventurers' Guild still looked the same, and Unqi led Anne into the stride. In the Adventurers' Guild, Miss Betty, the daughter of Lord Bellman, the president of the Guild, was stamping her feet in a hurry, and when she saw Unqi and Anne, she immediately ran over and grabbed Unki's hand tightly, like a stumbling traveler on the edge of a cliff grasping a life-saving straw.
Miss Betty grabbed Unki's hand and said, "Boaster...... Hero, you know Miss Monica, don't you? ”
Unch cursed, you mean to call me a braggadocl bastard, but it's not the time to pursue her nickname.
Wu Enqi said: "I'm late, what's going on in Wumei Town, you tell me quickly." ”
Miss Betty said, "That's right, a few days ago, the Holy King strictly ordered the garrisons from all over the country to rush to the Holy Capital and sail along the White River to the Eighth Holy Domain. Lord Bertrand Karvin asked the Phoebus Knight to take the Star Knights to the Holy Capital. Then the Flame arrived, and Lord Bertrand Karfinn was furious, and he ordered Monica and I to send a message to the Knights of Phoebus, telling him to rush back with the Knights to the rescue. The two of us managed to catch up with ......."
Unch interrupted Miss Betty, "Needless to say, Phoebus must not have returned, and then?"
Miss Betty's eyes were red, and she said aggrievedly: "That's it, the two of us begged him all night, but he persuaded us to obey the order of the Fifth Holy King and hand over Misty Rose Town to the Yan Clan." Miss Monica had a fight with him, and she couldn't move the Star Knights, so the two of us had to come back and report. At that time, the Flame Knights of the Yan Clan were attacking the Fog Rose Manor, the outer city had fallen, and the Fog Rose Fortress was still holding on. I told Monica not to go in, but she didn't listen and rushed in on the Nightmaremon. ”
Unki's heart sank, and Monica and Bertrand Karfin were equally stubborn, charging into battle alone, with commendable courage and no strategy.
"What happened next?"
Miss Betty cried, "Later, they hung up the body of Lord Bertrand Karfin, and it was the same fate to say that they dared to resist. I didn't see Monica and hoped she was alive. ”
"When did this happen?"
Miss Betty said, "It's been three days, and this morning my father went into the fortress to negotiate with the Yan people in the hope of ransomesing Miss Monica, but he hasn't come back yet, and I'm going to die of fear. ”
Lord Bellman has also fallen into the hands of the Fire Demon, and his help at this time can be regarded as a righteous act. Wu Enqi frowned and said, "Are there any of those guards in the Misty Rose Manor?" ”
Miss Betty said, "Lord Naomi Breed, he has defected to the Yan Clan, and is still the captain of the garrison in the Misty Rose Manor. ”
Unki's face became even more ugly, and he took Anne with him to the gate of the Misty Rose Manor, outside which was guarded by a team of Firedemon soldiers, and the manor was still burning with a blazing blue fire. Unch told Anne to stay far away, and he walked over and reported the name of Lord Naomi Breed to the Firedemon Captain, claiming to be his distant relative, who had heard that the manor lacked guards, so he had come to defect.
Captain Firefiend was cautious, he didn't let Unch in, but sent a Firefiend reporter to call Lord Naomi Breed out.
Lord Naomi Breed saw Unch and recognized him.
Lord Naomi Breed shrugged his shoulders and said, "So you bastard, you came to me for Monica's little girl, didn't you?
