Chapter 333: Cat Arson
In the middle of the day, the Tie Pear Flower Tavern is located in a bustling place, but it is extremely quiet, even if the business is poor, there are always one or two tables of diners. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
However, today's Tie Lihua Tavern, although the door is open, there is not a single ghost in the lobby on the first floor, and it seems to be in a miserable situation of closing down.
However, outside the Tie Lihua Tavern, under the huge sun, a column of sergeants towered, like stone sculptures, without speaking, without drinking or eating, one stop was a morning, with the scorching sun on his head, letting his sweat flow, his eyes were heavy, contemplating in all directions, and he was extremely vigilant.
Today, the Iron Pear Flower Tavern, no one is allowed to enter.
The rumbling horses' hooves pierced the hustle and bustle of the city, broke through the crowd of onlookers watching the good deeds, reined in the horse's whip, and originally wanted to ask, but as soon as he saw Commander Raul standing guard like a sentry, he was so frightened that he rolled off his horse, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.
"Public security income?" Raul overlooks down on the knight who has fallen from his horse.
"I've seen the lord of the commander," the knight paused, and said honestly: "There are people who report that someone in Tie Lihua has gathered to make trouble, but I didn't expect that the adult is here to do things, I don't know if the humble position can serve the adult?" β
The public security office, which is independent of the city defense army and different from the officials in the city center, belongs to the category of urban management, manages market order, maintains basic law and order, and there are more than one million people in the city of Para, but there are no such people.
The rumbling hooves were even larger and larger, ten times the size of the hooves of the police station, and even heavier, like a sledgehammer striking the ground, loud and heavy. Before the shadow appeared, the onlookers retreated in horror, giving way to a huge block, enough for ten war horses to go hand in hand, and even so, the timid kept climbing to the roof, afraid of being trampled.
"What do you get?" Raul's face sank, in the middle of the city, although there was no explicit prohibition on horseback riding, at this time, it was like the posture of the cavalry division charge, which had to be dealt with in that city.
The three hundred Praetorian Iron Lion suddenly wrinkled, and the hand holding the blade turned slightly white: Even if the Demon Beast Tide attacked, he couldn't take half a step back, and behind him, there were two adults.
At the end of the street, a steel cavalry turned out, heavy armor wrapped in Warcraft-level war horses, only a pair of eyes were exposed, looking from a distance, the cold light was shining, like a rolling torrent of steel, unstoppable, crushing everything.
Almost all certainly, such an iron cavalry is enough to collapse the Iron Pear Flower Tavern to the ground.
Three flags are waving in the wind: the shield flag of the Guards Legion, the turtle flag of the Xuanwu Legion, and the tiger flag of the White Tiger Legion. The three flags are tied together, going hand in hand.
Raul immediately relaxed, but, puzzled.
When the torrent of cavalry stopped, Raul stepped forward and greeted: "I have seen the three army commanders, but I hope you can tell me, what is the matter with the labor?" β
Captain of the Guards, Ux, is a heavy infantry armor with intricate craftsmanship and carved magic patterns, like a humanoid mecha. The heavy breath, immobile as a mountain, standing there, like a mountain pestle there, unshakable.
The commander of the Xuanwu Legion, Mors, wore ink-black steel plate armor, with amazing defensive power, standing on two legs, like two pillars, not moving in wind and rain, and not being defeated by thunder, just like their hoplites, becoming the mainstay of the battlefield.
The captain of the White Tiger Legion, Lesas, is dressed in a magic robe, born weak and weak, and his body is thin, and the two bodies together are not as good as Uks, just like a wicker with a weak eye, and it will fall down when the wind blows. However, no one dares to underestimate the winning and weak Lesas. The more emaciated the magician, the more terrifying the strength, this sentence is vividly reflected in the weak Lesas, it is hard to imagine that the momentum of the white-robed Lesas directly crushed the Xuanwu Legion Commander Mors, and faintly fought against the Guards Legion Captain Ux.
The three legion commanders came by order, but unfortunately they couldn't find the main owner, but when they saw Raul, they knew they were in the right place.
"Lord Marquis and Lord Pami are inside? We were ordered to come to the meeting. β
Raul was thundered on the spot: What meeting? There were only two drunken drunkards in the tavern. A little incredulous, he said, "However, Lord Marquis and Lord Pami are not ready for a meeting, this--"
Iron Pear Flower Tavern, on the second floor, a large amount of sunlight poured in through the window and fell on the two drunkards.
Ye Xiaofei's feet were on Pami's head, and he dragged Pami's boots as a chicken leg to gnaw, and when the sun fell on him, the two of them woke up in a daze, but, like a drunk person who wanted to drink water for the first time, the two guys grabbed the wine bottle next to him as water to drink, poured a large bottle, lay on the ground in a daze, and slept for another two hours, until the sun was in the middle of the day, and the rumbling horses' hooves could no longer let them rest in peace.
Ye Xiaofei lay on the ground, glared at Pami with his foot, and shouted in a dry voice: "Raul, you all come in." β
Pami suddenly fell into an evil spirit, and did it directly, as if he hadn't woken up yet, looked around blankly, shook Ye Xiaofei's feet away, leaned against the wall in a daze, and said, "Ye Xiaofei, what's the matter?" Who fell first last night? β
Ye Xiaofei only felt that his head was chapped, and he shouted in his throat, and his throat was cracked. There was still time to answer, and the same leaning against the wall, like two people in distress, looked at each other and smiled, and took a big breath of fresh air, trying to remember what happened last night, but, apparently, in vain, as rational as they were, when one with an army of thousands and one in charge of a city of millions of people, was also drunk: drunk only for the teeth.
Knock Knock - The footsteps are extremely subtle, as if they are afraid of disturbing anyone, tiptoeing.
The old man of the tavern brought two bowls of hot decanting soup, smiling like flowers, and said, "Two adults, this soup can be decanted, drink it while it is hot." β
Ye Xiaofei gulped it into his stomach, this food is like it, but there is no aristocratic style.
"Boss, I made such a mess of your place and smashed a lot of things, don't worry, I will accompany you."
"My lord, isn't this tormenting the old man? It's good for adults to have fun. I immediately asked someone to come up and clean up, but I didn't dare to come up just now for fear of disturbing the adults. β
Ye Xiaofei watched the old man walk down the stairs, took out two sets of clean coats from the ring, and said, "Pami, I forgot to tell you, when I came back yesterday, I had already told the commanders of the various legions that a military meeting would be held at noon today. Several corps commanders were found. β
Pami took the clothes, his face suddenly dropped, and said, "Hold a military meeting, you don't prepare, and you still drag me drunk?" I'm really convinced. β
After the two of them went downstairs, the people standing on the first floor were obviously more calm than expected, so that no one urged them.
"I've seen the Marquis, Lord Pami." ββββ"Masterββββ"
A minotaur warrior in heavy armor dashes in from the outside, knocking over several members of the Praetorian Iron Lion.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it's been a long time, Alista, they won't stop you, you're always so reckless. Raul, you go and prepare, I'm going to hold a military meeting here, you prepare. β
"Gollum--" Ye Xiaofei's stomach screamed uncontrollably, and said with a smile: "Look at all the dusty servants, it is estimated that you haven't come to eat yet, boss, serve." β
Pami didn't know how he sat next to Ye Xiaofei, shouldn't the military meeting be serious and confidential? How can it sound like a child playing from Ye Xiaofei's mouth? Bringing conference supplies over? Meeting at the restaurant where they were drunk last night? Well, what are you doing now? Have a party? Wine? Damn boss, put the bad stuff on the table again.
Although Ye Xiaofei pretended to be relaxed, he was not constrained by etiquette, and even acted casually.
However, when the three army commanders came in, the entire restaurant was depressed, as if a thousand catties of heavy burden were pressed on their shoulders, and they could not relax in the slightest.
Naturally, this delicious and hearty lunch gradually became boring, and even the rough-nerve Minotaur Alista did not dare to make a loud noise, and naturally, did not dare to touch the intoxicating bottle of wine.
Dehrim is a hurdle that no one can overcome.
Before the utensils were removed, the commander of the Guards Corps, Ux, stood up and arched his hand: "The situation is even more dangerous than we expected. β
The shopkeeper who cleaned up the dishes shook it, and under the piercing collision sound, a fine plate was smashed. Like Dehrim, irreparably broken.
The stagnant air scared the shopkeeper's feet weak, fell to his knees, and said, "My lord, spare my life." I didn't hear anything, I didn't mean to. β
"Let's go down," Ye Xiaofei waved his hand, and the shopkeeper was relieved and fled from the place. Ye Xiaofei looked at the leftovers in the seat, held his aching head with his hand, and was speechless for a long time: Dehrim, how could he be captured?
"Lord Marquis," Pami could only call in public, worriedly, "are you alright?" Do you want to postpone the meeting? β
"No," Ye Xiaofei's tone was firm, and he just sighed, looking weak.
On the other side, Raul had already set up the conference table next to him, which was very simple, eight tables were put together in two columns, covered with tablecloths, and formed a long conference table, and said in a low voice: "Lord Marquis, you can start the meeting at any time." β
The atmosphere was even more oppressive as he sat silently, the meeting that would decide the survival of the territory, and the last military force to emerge outside the kingdom of Rhodok. Since the fall of Dehrim, this frontier has become a matter of importance. and even decide the survival of the human race. However, this was a meeting held in desperation. No one dares to open their mouths easily, because when they say the truth, but every fact reveals only more disappointment and even despair.
The table was large enough to lay out a pan-continental map, and three or five officers were shuttling next to everyone, constantly marking various marks on the map: there were garrisons in fallen cities, areas and cities that sent out calls for help, there were regional hostile forces and their size, and even some bandits and mercenary groups who had fallen into the grass.
Very carefully, but, when the whole map is placed there, there is always despair.
Ye Xiaofei looked at a small city with a little surprise: 30,000 residents, orcs slaughtering the city. There are also medium-sized cities marked: 100,000 inhabitants, turned into undead (light). The most terrifying thing is that more than a dozen large cities with a population of hundreds of thousands have been killed and wounded.
From this map alone, it can be seen that this asymmetrical battlefield has tens of millions of human casualties.
The officers suppressed their fears, controlled their trembling hands, and tried to mark the data one by one: this was a God's slaughter of man, a genocidal massacre.
When the officers quietly retreated, the clothes of everyone present were already soaked with cold sweat, and they sat in their chairs in prostration, as silent as ever, and the air was as heavy as mercury, overwhelming everyone.
Ye Xiaofei bit his tongue, forced himself to calm down, stared at Pami suspiciously, and said, "Our territory does not have the ability to count such a perfect battlefield situation, as well as the loss of casualties, is this information reliable?" β
When the naked data is in front of us, no one wants to believe this despair.
"The data from the palace of Dehrim, as well as the military maps, I believe, are the most real side of this war, the side that we did not expect."
As soon as Pami's words fell, he fell into an even heavier and depressing atmosphere, accompanied by the sound of gasping cold air, even the minotaur Alista with rough skin like tree bark had to secretly wipe the cold sweat off his forehead, although he was a beast, but when so many deaths were in front of him, even if it was a human who had nothing to do with him. He was also terrified.
This is the sin of God. The merciful God kills ten, hundreds, and ten million times more terrifying than the devil.
Ye Xiaofei couldn't wait to tear the map in front of him to pieces, and then said that it was a lie to save his humble heart and his fighting spirit that was almost destroyed.
This desperate answer, no matter how powerful people look at it, will only despair, and even draw their swords to kill themselves to escape this terrible reality.
Ye Xiaofei could even feel his heart beating slower and slower, and he couldn't wait to stop his heartbeat immediately and end this terrifying nightmare.
Meow Meow Meow ββββββ
The purple electric cat didn't know where to run last night, jumping from the window edge on the second floor to the map, and the feet of the plum blossom print pressed purple footprints on the map from time to time.
Zizi --- Crackle ββββ
Purple electricity raged, the dry map burst into flames, and the orange flames danced quietly.
Meow Meow ββββ
The troubled purple electric cat escaped from the inn in a smoke, and in an instant only heard a cry that was getting farther and farther away, and finally disappeared without a trace.
Fire, small, small.
There were many people sitting at the table: Ye Xiaofei, Pami, Ux, Lesas, Morse, Alista.
This faint flame is reflected in everyone's eyes.
No one moved, no one even said a word to extinguish the fire, just watched quietly, knowing that the insignificant little flame was burning bigger and bigger, and in an instant, it swept the whole map, scorching, burning.
Ye Xiaofei stared intently: Despair, burn it!
Gone! When the flames swept through the sign of Deherim's city, everyone was deceiving themselves and breathed a sigh of relief, burning only a map marker, but everyone present was relieved, as if Deherim was still standing in the distance.
"Perhaps, we should change the conference table." Ye Xiaofei said lightly, and immediately ushered in a response, and everyone left the burning conference table one after another, so as not to set themselves on fire.
Not only did it change, but a few people immediately rearranged a new conference table next to it, but there was a map missing, and next to them, there was a conference table that was burning more and more. Luckily, the floor was covered with stone slabs, otherwise the madmen would have let the house burn down and say, to put it mildly, "Oh, let's change the boardroom."
The oppressive atmosphere seemed to be burned by a raging fire.
As soon as the fire went down, Ye Xiaofei's last drunkenness completely woke up, and said loudly: "You are the commanders of various legions, I want to hear your opinions." β
