Chapter 14 It's a Big Loss
Actually, I'm just too lazy to walk slowly with you on the 11th.
Thor also seemed to see my impatience, and knew that he had just made me wait for a long time, and he did not dare to refuse me, so he nodded in agreement, and agreed to meet at Jerrys's camp.
After Thor nodded, I grabbed the horse's belly and rushed out quickly. It didn't take long to leave behind the mighty team behind him, which was like the emperor leaving the palace. Straight to Jerry's barracks.
It wasn't long before I was standing in front of Jeris, and he was very happy when he saw me, and he grabbed my hand and said, "Oh, brave sir, it's a pleasure to see you again so soon, what does he say, Your Excellency?" ”
Hey, hey, don't grab my hand as soon as we meet, okay? Where is this habit formed? Is this an advantage?
I smiled and said, "Don't worry, Your Excellency Adjutant Jeris, General Thor attaches great importance to this matter, and has come over in person after meeting the king, and is now on his way, he told me to come and report to you first." I believe that His Excellency the General will be here soon. ”
Then it depends on how long the 11th of the group of soldiers behind him will have to go!
I silently added the last sentence in my heart, but Jeris was very happy, and this time he took the initiative to let go of my hand and looked at the sky with a very admiring look: "I haven't seen His Excellency the General for a long time. I think that when I was in the military academy, the general was still my senior, but I didn't expect that after so many years, we all became soldiers of the empire. Although I am the adjutant general of His Excellency the General, everyone still admires the General. You don't imagine the might of the general at the beginning, it is precisely because of this that His Excellency the general has always guarded the first line of defense of the royal city, which is a chasm that no enemy dares to cross! ”
I'm going, are you sharing memories with me?
To be honest, I'm not interested in your memories, if possible, can you give me some light tasks for the sake of me working too hard? I would be very grateful!
Although I did not want to interrupt Jeris's fond memories, I spoke up: "Your Excellency, Adjutant General Jeris, the general has explained, if possible, please allow me to meet with you with the captives, and perhaps I can ask something." ”
There are two requirements for the character of [Pass with the General], if I can meet Babaya before Thor comes, then it will mean that I will be able to complete the task by going back and giving Thor an explanation. As for what to do with the captives in the end, that's Thor's and Jerry's business. I just want to get my experience and walk away. Maybe the newly opened map has already been browsed by everyone at this time. Alas, it's a big loss, it's a big loss!
Jereth nodded, and led me to a small tent, where Babaya was being held. It was almost as he had imagined, it was a large cage, and Babaya sat in it with chains in his hands, and there were bruises on his face, and at a glance he knew that the soldiers of Jeris had treated him well.
The next thing was very simple, I briefly asked Babaya a few questions, but Babaya just closed her eyes and leaned to the side without speaking, except for looking at me twice. No wonder he gets beaten, what an uncooperative guy.
Seeing that I didn't have anything to gain, Jeris shook his head helplessly, and then took me out with him. Next, just wait for Thor to come here. During this period, I also chatted with Jerrys, of course, I just wanted to see if I could learn about the current situation in the royal city through NPCs, but unfortunately, Jeris is stationed in the suburbs all the year round, and he rarely has time to return to the royal city, so I don't know a lot about the situation. But I can still feel from his words that the current situation in Wang Cheng is not good:
First, the king is old, but there is no heir, and many people are eyeing the throne;
Second, the king wants to consolidate the country's power by marrying other countries, and his daughter, Princess Angelina, is the candidate for marriage, and this time it is Princess Angelina who has received intimidation. That's why the king attaches so much importance to it this time;
Third, there are some countries around that are secretly making small moves, ready to fish in troubled waters, but the country does not have many generals to fight now, so they can only barely maintain the current situation, once something unexpected happens, it is very likely to break the current balance, and Thor is also a last resort to leave the royal city, which shows how important the kingdom attaches to this matter;
Fourthly, there is now a group of unknown people, they have strong magicians and strong berserkers and agile archers, much stronger than the soldiers of the Empire, and it has often happened lately that soldiers go out on patrol and never come back, and Jeris has personally visited the places where those soldiers disappeared for this matter, but nothing has been found. He reported this matter to Thor, and the reason why Thor came in person was for Babaya, and secondly, for this matter.
It's a very old-fashioned plot.,But when these are connected in series, you'll find that it's actually very complicated.,The so-called pulling a hair and moving the whole body.,That's what I'm talking about now.。 No wonder Thor wants to stay in the palace for so long, it turns out that the matter is already so serious. I don't know if this situation will affect the development of the main city system in the game in the future, I really don't know why the programmer wants to write such a paragraph, so he can't give a peaceful environment to fight monsters quietly, earn some silver coins and gold coins for some pocket money or something?
Finally, Jeris said to himself, "I really don't know why those people are intimidating Princess Angelina, are they trying to destroy the marriage?" So why not do something on the day of the princess's wedding, but do these painless things? It's weird! ”
When I heard it, I immediately felt strange. It stands to reason that this group of people has strength, manpower, and experience, so it can be said that they want people to have guns, and the leader can't be an idiot, how could they do such a thing? Could it be that it's really because the miso eats too much and is idle? Just want to find something to do for yourself? So why not volunteer? Pick up garbage to green the environment, help others and leave no name!
At this time, Thor finally appeared in our long wait, and there was a group of soldiers with a slightly haggard look behind him, but when they came here, everyone was immediately in good spirits, as if they had eaten chicken blood, I wondered, I was so tired that I was about to lie down, is it necessary to pretend in front of my own brothers?
Seeing me and Jeris standing at the front to greet me, Thor dismounted and said a few words to Jeris briefly, and then said to me, "Oh, I didn't expect Your Excellency to be so fast. It seems that your Excellency did not get any clues from the captives. It's a pity, I thought that with your help, I could solve this matter quickly, and it seems that I will have to trouble the magicians of the Empire. ”
I'm also very helpless about this matter, although Babaya was caught by me, but after all, it's an NPC, and I can't beat or scold, and this kind of thing is too troublesome, and I'm too lazy to do it. It's better to leave it to Thor, and they can do it themselves. Jeris had already called for someone to bring Babaya over to Thor, and the people below would take care of this handover, so the three of us walked directly into the command tent. Thor naturally sat on the main seat, with Jeris on the left and I on the right.
Thor looked at the latest report handed in by Jerrys, his brows furrowed more and more, and finally said helplessly: "None of them came back alive?" ”
Jerrys's face was also very bad, and he shook his head helplessly and didn't say anything. Thor looked at the few pieces of paper in his hand, looked up and said to me, "Your Excellency Brave Adventurer, although I would like to go and check the situation there for myself, but I am worried about the safety of the royal city, so I would like to ask Your Excellency Adventurer to help you once again and go to the place where these soldiers are missing to find out the reason." ”
Ding~ System Prompt: Congratulations on completing the [Pass with General] quest, gaining 2000 experience points, 10 silver coins, and 100 reputation points.
Ding~ System prompt: Do you accept the [View Reason] (unique) task?
Mission: Enter the interior of the Seren Mountains, find out why the Imperial soldiers are missing, and inform General Thor.
Damn, two requirements for another task? Thor, are you a little too much?
I looked at the task in front of me with a dark face, and I was very confused about whether to continue doing it. Originally, I was going to refuse, but after thinking about it carefully, forget it, since I found it myself, let's do it to the end. Everything must have a beginning and an end, so I took this task with some helplessness in my heart, secretly praying that it was best to just walk around the task.
Then I didn't bother to talk to them, as for the matter of Babaya, I just threw it to them, and I carried the Emperor's Sword and groped along the sheep intestine path I walked last time. This time I still only have a piece of rope with me, maybe sometime I can use it. Following the coordinates given by the system, I walked forward slowly, because I had the experience of the last time, so I knew that the surroundings seemed to be calm, but there were traps everywhere that I couldn't see, and I might accidentally step on it. The mission said that the soldiers had seen a suspicious person come in, but never went out. However, no bodies were found, which means that it is not certain that the missing soldiers were dead, perhaps captured. If you can find the nest of those suspicious people, you might find something. It's a pity that this vast mountain is hundreds of miles, where can I find it!
I was struggling, and suddenly, two people came up from the side, looking dressed as white people of the Empire, with the oldest muskets on their backs, and they looked like two hunters. But if you look closely, you will find that something is wrong, these two people are in a hurry, and they look panicked, staring nervously around, as if they will be discovered. Hunting is allowed in this country, why should these two people be so nervous? Could it be that these two guys came here from another country to poach?
Suddenly, the person walking in front lowered the brim of his hat and said to the person next to him, "How is it?" Did anyone come along? ”
