Chapter Seventy-Two: Into the Mountain
In order not to make noise about his grandfather to sleep, Ma Long had to do it himself, handle it gently, half of the corpse was dozens of catties, and there were many fragments, in and out, it was really difficult for ordinary people not to make a sound!
You can't go all the way to find a knight to collect a corpse, and you can't say it!
After getting the body out of the tent, Malone called the patrolling guards and asked him to dispose of it.
Seeing the corpses on the ground, the guards were shocked that they had been mixed into the camp by the enemy!
Just as he was about to plead guilty and ask for punishment, Malone waved his hand, made a silent gesture, pointed to the inside of the tent, and signaled not to wake up others.
The guards nodded in surprise, whispered to their companions, and carried them out of the camp like corpses......
Ma Long didn't feel sleepy for a while, he had a strong recovery ability, he had a day's road during the day, and he was able to fully recover after a little rest at night.
Just walk around the camp, and although there is not much chance of enemies, there is no big mistake in being careful!
After a while, Jack, the camp leader, trotted over to Malone.
"Lord Lord, I should be damned, I actually ......"
Malone waved his hand to stop Jack's self-blame, and explained: "It's not your fault, the other party is a wizard, ordinary people really can't find out, I just took a look, the defense is very well arranged, and the soldiers are also vigilant, let me do it......"
Seeing that Jack was still in self-blame and couldn't come back to his senses for a while, Malone shook his head helplessly and ordered: "Okay, you go to rest, I'll just go around by myself!" ”
"I'll be with you!" Jack whispered.
Seeing his cautious appearance, Ma Long knew that he felt that he had made a mistake, and he was uneasy and did not dare to rest, so he let him follow.
After walking around the camp twice, there was really nothing out of the ordinary, and Malone asked Jack, "Are there any empty tents?" Let's go sit down. ”
Jack hurriedly said, "Yes, Lord Lord, come with me, go this way." ”
Malone nodded and followed, and after a while, the two came to a tent.
Jack opened the curtain and invited Malone in.
When Malone entered the tent, he saw a desk, which was used for office work, and the floor bunk in the back.
At this time, Jack also came in, and said with some embarrassment: "My lord, this is where I live, you will ...... it at once"
Marlon sat down on the only stool and ordered: "You can sit too, sleep for a while if you want to sleep, and tell me about the current situation if you don't want to sleep." ”
Jack sat on the bunk a little helplessly, and said, "I'd better tell you more about the situation, learn more, and it's safer to go up the mountain......"
"Hmmm"!
Malone nodded, waiting for him to continue.
“…… There are also two squads of soldiers on the mountain, both of whom were mountain people in the past, and they are familiar with the situation in the mountains, and the goblin sage Green is also ......"
Half the night passed in the small talk between the two, and the sky gradually brightened.
The firemen did not need to be called, they got up consciously to make breakfast, and the knights who had slept all night, and the priests got up separately.
While eating, Illya came to Marlon and asked, "The assassin came last night?" ”
Ma Long raised his head and said in surprise: "Did you hear that?" ”
Elijah shook her head, "I didn't, it was Knight Captain Louis who heard it, and the bishop asked me to come over and ask about the situation." ”
Ma Long nodded, and said that this was about the same, so he spoke: "There is indeed an assassin, a wizard, who used stealth to evade the guards and enter the camp. ”
"The wizard has made a move, so it seems that we have the right goal this time." Elijah said thoughtfully.
Malone agreed: "I think so too. ”
Illya asked with concern, "Are you alright?" ”
Ma Long shook his head and said, "No, the strength of that wizard is not strong." ”
"What kind of wizard is it?" Elijah wondered.
"You can be invisible, you can turn into sand......" Malone explained simply.
"How did you win if you could turn into sand?"
Malone shook his head and didn't speak.
Illya said angrily: "Hey, you are still being kept secret from me!" ”
Ma Long was helpless, "It's not a matter of secrecy, but I really don't know how to say it, and you can know when you see it!" ”
"Okay!" Elijah reluctantly agreed......
After eating, packing up the sacks, everyone set off again.
This time I went directly into the mountain, which was much more dangerous and difficult to resupply.
The personnel could only be reduced as much as possible, and all the soldiers under Ma Long's command remained at the bottom of the mountain, and only a few knights followed.
It was inconvenient for the war horse to go uphill, and he didn't bring a horse, and Ma Long filled his back pack early.
Marlon is now a level 6 paladin, and his backpack has six cubic meters, which is full of food and drink.
After cleaning up, the group entered the mountain under the leadership of Steck.
Whoever has the ability is on whom, in his previous life, Malone hated the layman commanding the insider, of course he wouldn't do it when it was his turn, and the familiar things were left to the familiar people to do.
Who else is more familiar with the mountains and forests than the mountain people?
Ma Longjue's letting Steck lead the team is just right!
The rest of the journey proved to be true, and Steck led the group to avoid several dangerous places.
The mountain road is difficult to walk, although there are preparations in advance, but everyone still suffers enough.
There was no road on the mountain at all, only the soldiers who had been sent out earlier to open the way had barely cut down the trees and vines, and they were able to pass people.
The knights in the team are okay and strong, and although the priests also exercise, there is a qualitative gap compared to the knights.
After two days, all the pastors were shaking their legs and feet, and they couldn't walk.
The archbishop ordered the knight to carry the priest on his back and continue on his way.
It seems that the closer he gets to the goal, the more eager his mood becomes!
Marlon carried Elija on his back and walked to the back of the line with one foot high and one foot low to prevent others from falling behind.
He has a superhuman physique, and he can be said to be the most out of all people here, and others are tired and out of breath, but he doesn't feel anything.
Even carrying the person he likes behind his back, there is still some joy in his heart.
Marlon was talking to Elijah as he walked.
The two chatted without a word.
"Why do you think the archbishop is in such a hurry? If you rush through like this, how much combat power will you have left? ”
"I'm afraid the wizard will run away", Illya replied on her back: "I used to find a wizard, as long as the temple moved slowly, it would run away.
If there is no gain from such a big action this time, people will laugh at it! ”
"If you go like this, what can you do when you meet a wizard, and if you go to meet the enemy with a tired body, can you win? If he is attacked again......" Malone was worried, but there was nothing he could do.
After all, most of the people in the team are not their own people.
On the fourth day of entering the mountain, a sudden heavy rain put an end to the archbishop's desire to reach his destination in one go......
Summer is already rainy, and it came suddenly!
Just now, the night sky was clear, the stars were bright, and in the blink of an eye, the dark clouds spread out, and the thunder rolled in.
The people were resting on the edge of a cliff and setting up their tents.
