Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Lord's Daughter
Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Tide of Beasts
Far away, a huge black city rises from the ground, and you can see that outside the city are yak and elk farms one after another. But judging from the size of the city www.biquge.info I am afraid that there are at least 50,000 or more residents in it.
Of course, this kind of city is nothing in the empire, and a random county town is much stronger than it. But in wolf crying, it's different. Looking at the huge city from afar, Elise's face naturally became proud and proud, and began to talk eloquently:
"Although in the whole Wolf Cry, the Eastern Territory is nothing, but in the eastern part of the Wolf Cry, the Eastern Territory is the tenth ranked city, and it is the natural barrier in the eastern part of the Wind Helmet City!"
"The eastern barrier?" Zuo Zhen was a little puzzled, isn't the easternmost wolf crying in the east, and further east is the depths of the withered soil, it is said that it is a forbidden area of life, and no one can live there. Naturally, there are no enemies.
Wait a minute... Beast tide!
"Yes! Every twenty years, there is a small beast riot in the land of wolf crying, and at that time, not only do such docile animals as yaks and elks become extremely irritable, and there is no way to raise them. There are also countless terrifying beasts and even demons that have sprung up from various places, and it is nothing short of a disaster! ”
Obviously, anyone who has reached a certain age has some memory of this kind of thing, and when Moshar heard the word beast tide, he couldn't help but think of the events of fifteen years ago. There was a bit of fear on his face, and he took Elise's words, and his voice was a little deep:
"Yes! Fifteen years ago, the little beast tide almost broke through the Eastern Territory, and I don't know how many people died to survive that year! That year, the other forces in the Eastern Territory were basically killed and wounded! ”
"The other forces of the Eastern Territory have not held it!" Zuo Zhen began to take the matter of the beast tide to heart, fortunately, there are still five years, otherwise I really don't know what to do!
"Don't say it's the eastern territory, if you encounter a once-in-a-century big beast tide, then it's called a real hell on earth, at that time, the wolf cried east, except for the three major cities, no one could defend it!" The meaningful mockery on Moshal's face was unaware of the fact that he was mocking the cruel world.
The atmosphere on the field suddenly became depressing, and Elise hurriedly spoke to ease up:
"But we don't have to worry! Anyway, the small beast tide only came five years later, and the big beast tide just appeared thirty-five years ago. We won't live that day! ”
"Did the last Great Beast Tide destroy a city that is even more powerful than the current three major cities?" Left glanced at Celia without a trace and asked.
"How do you know!" Elise glanced at the left mark suspiciously, this kind of secret should be unknown to the left mark. Immediately, Elise looked at the people around Zuo Zhen, all of them were extraordinary. It must have been some of the nobles of that city who had fled to them, and thinking of this, Elise did not mention the subject again, but nodded and continued:
"Yes, that beast tide was indeed a bit abnormal, too many powerful demons gathered in Wintercastle City, and wiped the most powerful city in the east of Wolf Cry directly off the map."
While speaking, several people had already come to the outside of the city wall of the Eastern Territory, and when a group of soldiers saw Elise, they immediately bowed respectfully and saluted, and shouted in unison:
"I've seen Miss Elise!"
Elise looked at Zuo Zhen and the others behind her, and said casually:
"This is my friend, the battalion commander of the severed limb camp!"
This sentence actually has a deep meaning, in the Eastern Territory, there is an unspoken rule for people from other camps to enter the city. It's the people in the weak camps who want to give some gifts to let them in.
Don't look at these soldiers who are only guarding the city, but as the captain of the city, there are forty or fifty people under him, and the leader of a small force like Xiangzuo Tracesolde is only two or three hundred people, one is the lord's personal soldiers, and the other is the village soldiers, can this be the same?
"Yes! Subordinates understood! A drop of sweat oozed from the captain's forehead, and he nodded hurriedly.
"The battalion commander of the severed limb camp, the friends made by the little sister are really getting more and more upscale!"
When Zuo Zhen and the others were just about to enter the city, a voice full of mockery came, and when they turned their heads, they saw more than fifty people riding tall war horses coming over, led by a tall plump woman with a ruddy face and a little mean and cold.
The gap between the more than 50 war horses and the more than 50 people on foot on Zuo is obviously not ordinary!
"I've seen Miss Lesis, I've seen Lord Drow!" The soldier who was still nodding and bowing just now actually knelt down with a thud and saluted extremely respectfully.
"Lesis, what kind of friends I make is not your turn?"
"Get up!" Les Illis said lightly to the soldier, as if she had not heard Elise's words, and when the soldier stood up tremblingly, Les Lith said to Iris in the tone of an elder teaching a junior:
"Elise, you're sixteen years old now, you're an adult, why are you still so ignorant of the rules. Friend,Oh,I don't care what kind of friends you make.,But... Don't lose your father's face! After saying that, Leslie grimaced, turned her head and said to Drow:
"Drow, let's go!"
Lesis Shi Shiran shook the saddle rope and rode towards the city, without looking at Zuo Zhen and the others the whole time.
Zhuoer glanced at Zuo Zhen and the others with interest, and looked at Zuo Zhen very uncomfortably with that kind of high-minded gaze.
When he saw Celia, Drow's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, but he quickly hid it, but when he passed by Elise, Drow pretended to be a good old man and said to Elise in an admonishing tone:
"Elise, your sister is also for your good, although the tone is heavier, but you don't want to take it to heart."
Elise looked at Drow coldly and didn't say a word.
Drow apparently expected this to be the case, and didn't say anything, driving away with Lesis.
After Celis and the others walked away, Elise said to Zuo Zhen and the others apologetically:
"Mr. Zuo Zhen, please don't take it to heart. You don't know the location of the station yet, do you, come with me. By the way, the Chamber of Commerce in Wind Helmet City will hold a trade fair with you at the meeting, and you will be able to get rid of these things in your hands at that time! ”
There are also some doorways here at the post station, and you need to collect some things. With Elise leading the way, you can naturally save a lot of trouble.
"Thank you, Miss Elise!" For Elise's help, Zuo Zhen could only silently take it to heart.
As for the conflict between Elise and Lesis, it is actually very simple. The lord has two daughters but no sons, so the lord of the East has to choose between Elise and Lesis.
Lesis has been strong and greedy since she was a child, and she wants the best in everything, and she didn't have anything before Elise was born. But as soon as Elise was born, the lord preferred Elise more. So Lesilise has been compared to Elise in everything since she was a child.
In addition to these, the most important thing is the battle for the lord's position. They also know about the beast tide, who wants to die in the beast tide, so Relis wants to deal with Elise and cultivate her wings.
And Drow is the strongest foreign aid that Lesis has ever found.
Zhuoer himself is a third-level warrior, and the second largest force among the more than 20 forces in the Eastern Territory, with a population of 30,000 and 3,000 soldiers.
For Lesis's embrace, he naturally would not refuse. Isn't Leslie becoming a lord the same as becoming a lord himself?
As for why she didn't look for the one with the first strength, because Lady Martha, who was the first in strength, was a woman, and secondly, Lady Martha was the one the lord had to get rid of, so she didn't look for this foreign help.
As for why you want to get rid of Martha?
Quite simply, Martha is too strong, that's all!
In addition to building a city, it has a population of 50,000. 5,000 soldiers, and that's just the strength on the surface!
The lord ordered Moshal's to make more contact with Elise, in a sense, in order to give Elise a little hole card to protect herself.
"Urgent, urgent! Malu Fortress is attacked by unknown creatures, Malu Fortress is attacked by unknown creatures! I ask for support, I ask for support! ”
This voice stunned the people who were entering the city, and turned their heads to look at a fast horse coming outside the city, and immediately a man covered in wounds shouted anxiously.
Elise's face suddenly changed, and she shouted at the soldiers who were a little stunned on the side:
"Don't go and inform your father quickly, if Maru's silver mine fails, I'll see how you can take it!"
"Yes, yes!" The captain turned around and walked away, running quickly towards the Lord's Mansion.
Elise muttered to herself anxiously:
"Uncle Maru is a third-level warrior, and there are still a full two thousand garrisons there, even if Martha goes, he can easily hold it, how can he ask for help!"
