Chapter 304: The army loses its commander
Auguston and Carromen are in a standoff, and Hoftton is in a standoff with Simeone.
Higg miscalculated, he originally thought that the druids would definitely launch a crazy revenge on him, but he didn't expect that for more than three months, the druids had no action at all, and they had formed a confrontation between Korqin City and Donauton City.
It's autumn, the weather is no longer so hot, all the fortifications of the city walls have been completed, the training of recruits is nearing completion, and the expanded military workshop is on track......
But the lack of movement of the enemy made Higg very distressed, because without movement, there would be no flaws again. Occupy a small city by yourself, but the other party completely ignores it, and the long-term confrontation is very unfavorable to Hig's expeditionary force, because Horqin City and the surrounding villages and towns are not enough to support tens of thousands of troops and military workshops, and the taxes payable by Horqin City last year have basically been spent in just a few months, so the result of such a confrontation can only be consumed by the other party.
It was clear that the druids saw this clearly, and although the confrontation was more costly for the druids, as long as Higg's expeditionary force did not break through the defenses, the army would sooner or later be trapped in the city of Korqin.
"Since there is no war now, I think it is better to take advantage of this time to go and see which mineral deposit the dwarves have discovered!" In the room, Blue Fairy said to Higg, "What is the secret there that caused all the dwarves to die, I always feel that things are very strange!" ”
"That place is in the hinterland of the druids, more than eight hundred kilometers away, if something happens, it will be trouble!" Higg said, "If you want to go, I'll go, it's too dangerous for you to stay!" ”
"Didn't you say you wouldn't separate?" Lan Xian'er said, "The location indicated on the map is relatively rough, you don't know much about this ore itself, you can't find it without me going with you!" ”
"Why do you have to be in such a hurry?" Higg asked, curiously, "I've decided to destroy the druids, so I'll do it!" You've been waiting for hundreds of years, and you're going to wait a few more years? ”
"Well, there's nothing to hide from you!" Lan Xian'er said worriedly, "When I left the Valley of Flowers, the formation that maintained the Valley of Flowers had almost stopped functioning because there was no spiritual support, and it wouldn't be long before the Valley of Flowers would soon be exposed to Middle-earth!" If the Valley of Flowers is discovered, it will be quite dangerous, even if it is fortunate not to be discovered, the time dimension of the Valley of Flowers will completely collapse at that time, and the people of the Valley of Flowers will age rapidly! So, I had to take the risk! ”
"Time dimension?" Higg exclaimed.
"You forgot? You and Shante have been in the Valley of Flowers for more than two months, but more than three years have passed outside? Lan Xian'er said, "A Jiazi in the mountains, a thousand years in the world!" The formation of the Valley of Flowers can slow down the flow of time, one Jiazi is equivalent to a thousand years in Middle-earth, and the Valley of Flowers will soon reach the limit of one Jiazi, the formation will soon disappear, and the time dimension will collapse immediately! ”
Higg was even more surprised, and said: "I remember that in the mausoleum of the Divine Beast Enclosure, we were only in for a few hours, but a week had passed outside, that is, there was also a time warp in the Divine Beast Enclosure?" This is all something that happened in a different dimension, so if the Valley of Flowers still has spiritual power to maintain, it is actually a different dimension, that is, another world, unless you find the dimensional import and exit of this space, you can enter the Valley of Flowers, isn't it? ”
Lan Xian'er nodded and said with a smile: "The different dimension or different world we are talking about, in fact, what distinguishes us from us is not necessarily only the difference in space, and the time may not be the same. We always like to visualize our dimension intuitively in three dimensions, but we ignore the dimension of time. Even if the three-dimensional space of two dimensions coincides, if there is a huge difference in the time dimension, the two dimensions will not coincide! Just like the Valley of Flowers, it actually exists in Middle-earth in space, and it overlaps with a certain space in Middle-earth, but because it is in the time dimension, a Jiazi is equivalent to a thousand years in Middle-earth, so in fact, the Valley of Flowers and Middle-earth are actually not in the same dimension, and they need to be reached through a dimensional channel! And if the time dimension of the Valley of Flowers collapses, it will be assimilated by the time dimension of Middle-earth, and the different dimension of the Valley of Flowers will no longer exist! ”
Higg asked curiously, "What will be the consequences if the Valley of Flowers is assimilated by Middle-earth and the two dimensions merge?" ”
"Well, you'll find out sooner or later anyway!" Lan Xian'er said, "There is a passage to the dimensional gate leading to the cultivation civilization in the Valley of Flowers, but because of the loss of the spiritual energy to open the dimensional gate, the dimensional gate is temporarily closed!" Only by finding a large number of spiritual power stones can it be possible to activate the dimensional gate again! ”
Higg was taken aback and almost jumped up, "You're leaving the Valley of Flowers, leaving Middle-earth, and returning to the Xiuzhen Dimension?" ”
"How difficult it is to open the dimensional passage!" Lan Xian'er said, "Even when we first arrived at the dimension of Middle-earth, when the spirit power stones were still sufficient, we were not able to activate the dimensional gate again, and even if we find the spirit power stones now, we can only say that we have tried it!" ”
"I don't ask if you can activate the dimensional door and open the dimensional passage!" Xige stared at Lan Xian'er tightly and said angrily, "You said that you would not leave me, and you said just now that we would never be separated again, but in fact, in your heart, you have always used me, used me to help you, left the Middle-earth dimension, and returned to the world of cultivation, right?" ”
"Higg!" Blue Fairy lowered her head and didn't dare to look into Higg's eyes, and said, "Actually, my heart has been struggling......"
"Don't say any more...... Higg interrupted Lan Xian'er's words and said angrily, "I originally thought that the Valley of Flowers was my savior, and I would not hesitate to help you. But you treat me like a pawn and even let you deceive my feelings! When I have helped you to do all this, I have become your outcast and have been ruthlessly abandoned! Hehe, it's funny that for more than ten years, I have never forgotten to repay the kindness, but it was just a joke played by others! Even if I'm willing to be a pawn, why do I want you to play with my feelings? ”
"That's not the case, Higg!" Lan Xian'er hurriedly explained, "You calm down, listen to my explanation......"
Higg didn't listen, and in a fit of rage, he turned around and walked out of the room, slamming the door......
"How did it come to this, am I really too selfish?" In the room, only the tearful Blue Fairy was left, muttering to herself......
……
"Ma'am, where has Higg been these days?" At the military meeting, Lu Faxi asked Lan Xian'er, who had been in a trance all day, "Why haven't you seen anyone for a few days, and you haven't even attended a routine military meeting?" It's the autumn harvest season, and we should stock up on more food to deal with the druid's blockade, but the army is without a commander! ”
"I don't know!" Lan Xian'er said, "General Lu Faxi, you will act as an agent for all the affairs of the city defense of Horqin City first, and I will go and get him back!" ”
"What the hell is going on?" Maria smiled and said, "If the two of them quarrel and run away, won't they not come back for several days?" ”
"I don't know why that's happening!" Lan Xian'er said, "I originally thought that he would be angry after going out for a day or two, but I didn't expect that I was wrong again!" I thought, I know where he went, rest assured that I will get him back, the expeditionary force cannot live without him! ”
"Where the hell did he go?" Marissa asked, "This is the druid's domain, where can he go?" ”
"He's gone deep into the hinterland of the Druids, more than eight hundred kilometers from here!" "I can feel the unknown danger there, so I must get him back as soon as possible!" ”
Everyone was surprised, now the two armies are facing each other, although the expeditionary force is strong, but the heel is not stable, in this autumn harvest season, their own commander ran to the hinterland of the opponent's camp, if something happens, the entire expeditionary force will be in danger! If he is discovered by the enemy, he will definitely do his best and capture him.
"It's so capricious!" Lu Faxi said angrily, "The commander of the first army, how can he enter the enemy camp alone without saying a word!" Madame, I don't know what happened between you, but in any case, you must get it back as soon as possible, and I can't guarantee that if the enemy attacks, I will be able to hold on! ”
"General Lu Faxi, please don't make a noise about this matter first, otherwise the army's morale will be turbulent and irreparable!" Lan Xian'er knew that the stakes were high, so she had to say cautiously, "If within three months, we don't come back, please consider withdrawing the army to the Silent Forest according to the situation!" ”
"Three months?" Lufaxi was shocked and asked, "Didn't you say you knew where he went?" Why do you need three more months? ”
"Because that place is not easy!" Lan Xian'er said, "I can't guarantee that Higg will not risk anything, and when the time comes, maybe, even his life will not be saved!" ”
"What do you know? Can't you tell us? Lufasi asked anxiously.
Lan Xian'er smiled reluctantly: "I can only guess now, this matter should be related to Delongso's finding you, so you should know why I can't say it!" ”
Lufasi suddenly looked frightened, and then said angrily, "If you know, why did you let him take the risk?" ”
"He shouldn't know what's going on here!" Lan Xian'er said, "It doesn't matter how you blame me, but it's already here, and it's too late for us to say anything!" I'll leave it to you here, I'll go find him right away! ”
"You're alone?" Lufasi said, "The Druid's territory is full of jungles, and even if you don't encounter enemies, you will not be able to deal with the beasts of the mountains and forests!" I'll contact Thomas right away and ask him to come with you! ”
"No!" Lan Xian'er shook her head and said, "Don't make a noise about this matter, Thomas and Corincha are at each other's horns with Korqin City on the periphery, and without him, Korqin City's defense system will have huge flaws!" Don't worry, I'll be careful! ”
"I'll go with my wife!" Marissa said with a solemn face.
Lan Xian'er laughed miserably: "You can't go!" Your army of Pegasus has become the target of the druids' attention, and deep into the hinterland will expose us in the druids' territory, and Higg's location in turn! Besides, you are responsible for both the new barracks and the newly reformed prisoners, and if you leave suddenly, who will take over from you in charge of this new army? ”
"Don't fight, I'll go!" Mary got up and said, "I'm just an idler here, I'll go with the countess!" ”
"No, Your Highness the Princess......"
"There are no princesses in the army, only soldiers!" Mary said, "Don't say any more, it's settled, and we'll leave tomorrow morning!" ”
