Chapter 226: Cuenca, this soft-footed shrimp!
Forty kilometres beyond the Castle of the Night's Watch, the plains were once a beautiful landscape of birds singing and flowers and grass growing and kites flying, but now it was trampled by countless makeshift barracks, stables, and fortifications. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Countless warriors in metal armor walked around it, countless lights lit up in the camp, the moon hung proudly in the sky, and the stars around them all disappeared without a trace, leaving only it, looking mockingly at the humble world at their feet.
At the rear of the camp there was a barracks that was slightly larger than the others, and in this seemingly unremarkable room lived the supreme commander of all the troops here.
Kuruya? Wind pressure, the legendary Prince of Wind Pressure.
"Your Excellency, the Night Watch Castle is trying to gather all the forces in their hands, but it seems that only the Royal Knights are at the moment, and not even a single Night Watch Knights have seen it." Speaking of this, the adjutant in front of him suddenly showed a proud expression, "The subordinates are sure, they must be scared, a rabble like them cannot be our opponent at all." ”
Waving his hand at the adjutant in front of him, the old man Kuruya, who was dressed in military uniform, turned around, and said softly with his eyes like lightning: "Never underestimate our enemies, despising will make our judgment skewed, and wrong judgment will make us pay a heavy price." ”
"What the prince said is that his subordinates are talking too much."
"Go, send more scouts to keep an eye on them, and don't forget that I was once the commander of the Night Watch!" Old man Kurua raised his eyebrows, like a beast staring at its prey, and said softly, "Their upper echelons are a bunch of old foxes, and at such times, they hide more than they are revealed, which makes me more concerned." ”
"My subordinates understand!"
Watching the adjutant take the order, the Prince of Wind Pressure in the center of the room showed a sinister smile.
"Let's see...... In this hunt, who is the poor prey! ”
………………
"I ...... I say! Cuenca panted and followed Wen Wen as he tried to follow the latter's pace, "Can't we, can't we find a way to get around?" Oh my God, I feel like the distance from the sea to here is enough for me to run thirty laps around the deck that rides the waves! ”
"It's not that exaggerated at all, besides, you should also exercise well, eat and sleep on the ship every day, and you are not afraid of fatty liver!" "There's no track here, and when we're in the slums, we'll be able to catch the magic locomotive that goes straight to the Vigil Keep." ”
"Magical locomotives? Call...... Call...... When I came, when I came, they, their main mode of transportation, were still horse-drawn carriages! ”
Cuenca gasped more and more, and it was surprising that an admiral would be so tired from walking.
"How long has it been since you exercised, let alone demons like this, can you defeat the wild fish-man tribe?"
"Don't ...... Don't underestimate me, they all have to go to heaven with a torrent! When Cuenca finally couldn't walk anymore, he reached out and grabbed his gentle arm in front of him, and sat down on the big rock on the side of the road, "Let's ...... Let me rest! I've found that I'm really getting more and more disgusted with land. ”
Looking at Cuenca sitting on the side of the road like a fool, Gentle was also helpless, God knew that this terrible admiral who was like a natural disaster on the sea would instantly turn into a weak soft-footed shrimp on land.
"Okay, okay, hold on a little longer, we're going to get to the station soon." Gently raised his head and looked at the nearby slum ahead, the familiar scenery was almost indistinguishable from the memory, "As soon as we get to the station, we will be able to make our way to the Vigil Fort easily and happily." ”
"Alas...... I'm really sick in the brain, and I actually came to suffer this sin with you. ”
Cuenca shook his head, slapped his thigh helplessly, and his tall body stood up again, only to see him take a deep breath, and the whole person suddenly became high-spirited.
"Charge-!! Target, Magic Station!! ”
After shouting, the admiral of the dignified Iron Sail Navy rushed out like a fool, leaving only a cloud of dust and a dumbfounded gentleness in his place.
It took several seconds for him to react.
"Come back-!! You idiot, that's where we're going, not over there! ”
After a lot of hard work and countless detours, Wen Wen and Cuenca finally came to the coveted magic energy station, although the two of them are very strong, but in such a short period of time, they have traveled from the edge of the beach to this place on foot, even the two of them have a feeling of being unbearable, especially Cuenca, who is even more slumped on the chair next to the station at this moment, and is unwilling to move.
"It's finally here...... Then again, why do we have to run? ”
"Swain left from Old Man Kurua three days ago, and he can do a lot in three days." Wen Wen carefully read the notice posted on the side of the station, and whispered without looking back, "Maybe war has broken out by this time." ”
"What the hell are you talking about this Kurua?" Cuenca glanced around at the dark slums, "Your place is really desolate, it's only a few o'clock, and no one can see it, is there really a magic locomotive coming to such a broken place?" ”
"Old man Kurua is the purpose of our trip, his troops may be one of the most powerful forces in the Shadow Inheritance Nation right now, and he is about to start a war that will destroy people's lives and make them irreversible, we are going to stop him." After gently looking at the notice in front of him for a long time, he finally raised his head and looked at Cuenca behind him with a smile, "I can only say that your crow's mouth is really effective." ”
"Huh?"
"The notice here should be a big announcement: The Vigil Fort is under full martial law and is closed to traffic."
"What's that?"
Hearing this message from gentleness, Cuenca couldn't help but feel excited, and he hurriedly stood up and checked the notice posted on the wall on one side, what kind of joke, and ran from here to the Night Castle?
After reading it, our admiral is like an eggplant that has been crossed with bitter gourd, and the whole person is not good.
"Running from here?" Cuenca leaned against the wall, looking feebly at the railroad tracks looking into the distance, and muttered to himself, "Oh my God, you might as well let me die!" ”
At this moment, Wen Wen behind him suddenly whispered, "No...... Maybe we don't have to run over there. ”
Cuenca followed his voice and looked back, his eyes lit up.
