Katie stared silently at the mess under her eyes. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

This is a tribal site of the totem tribe, and the reason why it is called the ruins is because after the previous attack led by the man in the hat, this area has been abandoned into a lifeless scorched earth.

At the entrance of the village, two totems painted with strange beasts are soaked in almost black bloodstains, and the colorful tattooed corpses of the totem people can be seen everywhere, and the doors and windows of the simple houses made of mud are wide open, as if they have been broken into by fierce beasts and wolves. Katie had seen too many of these brutal war scenes since entering the forest, and she didn't show much disgust, just staring at the men in the hats who gathered the team with strange eyes.

"Have you changed sex?" As the man in the hat passed by, she finally couldn't help but ask.

The purpose of the empire's opening up is to expel the alien race and take the rare treasures looted by the alien race for his own use, but what the man in the hat has done in the past two days is completely contrary. He led the team all the way, almost wiping out all the alien forces that stood in his way with the speed of the wind and falling leaves, as if he were clearing the barricades that stood in the way.

"This seat was ordered to speed up the march, that's all." The man in the hat replied meticulously.

Katie frowned slightly, the hatsman was telling the truth, the speed of the march in this wasteland was completely faster than any previous wasteland, and the Templars led by Katie were the pioneers, but now she fell behind the rear flank of the large army, and it took a lot of effort to catch up.

"If you want to speed up your march, simply ignore these alien villages along the way, so that you can meet the large army faster." Katie looked at the man in the hat seriously, "Mei Niang, what do you think?" ”

"I'm afraid it won't be as you wish, Your Highness." The man in the hat held back the anger that surged into his heart because he was called a nickname, and said bluntly word by word, "The military god said, it is good for His Highness to stay outside the canyon, and the rest of the things will naturally be handled." ”

"Stupid mortal, why did he order me?"

Katie's gaze wandered over the man in the hat, as if to say can you stop me?

The man in the hat didn't say anything more, he just stepped out of the way and let a few strange soldiers wearing masks and helmets behind him stand up. Before Katie could show a sneering gaze, she saw the soldiers take off their helmets one after another, and the first one was none other than Lance, who had white hair and a solemn face.

Katie froze in place.

"Archbishop Reims, I'll leave it to you here, for the sake of Her Highness Katie's safety, you should persuade her more." The man in the hat smiled and patted the archbishop's shoulder, he was basically in a state of being suppressed by Katie all the way, and it was rare to see Katie deflated.

Ignoring the two men who stood there like stakes, the man in the hat galloped away with the cavalry team.

……

The night is deep, a thin hooked moon hangs on the top of the mountains, and the warm moonlight quietly soaks into a quiet dreamland.

Lying on the bed, Bob Wardoor stared at the dark sky through the window, and the old chieftain, who couldn't sleep, finally sat up from the bed in his animal skin pajamas. He picked up the pen and paper on the desk and sat down, pausing to write the letter he had been thinking about for a long time.

The Daredevil don't need to light up at night, so the room is unusually quiet except for the sound of a pen slashing.

The guards who kept vigil were all drowsy, only the general who was guarding the door noticed the movement in the house, and this old servant, who had served the Zhanmen family for more than 20 years, knocked lightly on the door, and after receiving a response, entered the house and closed the door.

"My friend."

The old chief patted the bed behind him and motioned for someone to sit down, and the general who was given the name of the battle gate just shook his head, he glanced at the unfinished letters neatly placed on the table, and sighed, "You are writing to the young master again, obviously the young master Greg will never reply." ”

"I don't blame that kid, after all, he left the clan at such a young age, and I don't know how much he has suffered over the years, and his personality will inevitably be indifferent." Bob pretended not to care and smiled, looking at the battle gate and shaking his head, he saw the chief's hard work all these years, after all, the war gate tribe is only a weak small tribe in the entire clan, and Bob sometimes makes choices that are just helpless.

"How's the battle going ahead?" Bending down to write a few more lines, Bob carefully folded the letter and stuffed it into a nearby oiled paper bag.

"Judging by the speed of the Terrans' marches in the past, I'm afraid they haven't reached the canyon between the two mountains yet." Zhanmen mentioned in passing, "The first line of defense has not been broken, and there is no news from the Totem Clan, so it will be more than ten days before the imperial army breaks through the canyon of the first line of defense." ”

"That's fine, send someone to deliver the letter to the boy and send it quickly." Bob handed the letter wrapped in oiled paper to the battle gate, who nodded slightly and was about to retreat out the door.

At this moment, a low trumpet sounded in the mountains and wilderness.

Zhanmen and Bob's faces became surprisingly solemn, and before the two night demons could move, they saw a night guard running into the chief's room, and opened his mouth in a panic and said, "People...... Terran Army...... Hit in. ”

Zhanmen and the old chief looked at each other, almost suspecting that something was wrong with their ears.

"What a joke! What about the first line of defense? How did they get through the Grand Canyon? Why is there no news from the totem tribe? Zhan Men asked three times in a row, fully expressing the shock in his heart.

"I ...... I don't know anything. The guard was nervous and could barely speak.

Zhanmen snorted coldly and left the guards, turned back to the old chief and bowed: "I'm going to gather the army, please rest assured, it is estimated that it is a fish that has slipped through the net without knowing how to pass through the defense line, and it should not be much of a threat...... The nearby totem tribe will not sit idly by, and the rescuers should already be on their way. ”

The atmosphere in the room was as quiet as death.

Zhanmen bowed and didn't move, he thought that Bob would agree immediately, but he didn't expect that after waiting for a long time, Bob just exhaled loudly.

"No need." The old chief shook his head again and again, he raised his head and smiled bitterly at the battle gate, "I wronged you to be a messenger, you go first, try to copy the path during the escape, remember to send this letter to that kid." ”

"Chief?" The battle gate was shaken, and he wanted to say something, but Bob immediately waved his hand to stop him.

"Time is running out, don't you understand?" The old chief looked him straight in the eye.

"The totem clan has defected."

Zhanmen was speechless, this question had been lingering in his mind for a long time, and when he heard that the chief also said the same, he finally confirmed what he thought.

"You go directly to Black Rock with the letter, and you don't need to bring other tokens, remember to remind the Great Chief about the Totem Clan. Also, try your best to keep that kid Greg, and I don't blame you if there's really nothing you can do. ”

The old man waved his sleeves and motioned for his old friend to run away. Zhanmen's eyes were already soaked with tears, and he knew that he couldn't take the old chief away, so he could only get up helplessly.

He took one last look at the old man's calm face, turned and strode away.

In the air, the strange-looking Yin General Hehe smiled and carried a half-human-high gunpowder cylinder, and under the guidance of his subordinates, he found the palace of the chief of the Battle Gate at a glance.

Piles of cluster bombs rained down from the sky, razing the otherwise ornate palace to the ground. In the pile of burning ruins and broken tiles, the old chief's half-animal skin pajamas could be faintly seen, emitting a scorching smell in the firelight. (To be continued.) )
