Chapter Ninety-Seven: Blow Up Syracuse for Me
Let go of the others, and the condition of the cadre is to let Xia Han stay.
Standing at the top of the windswept city wall, Xia Han watched as the twenty human soldiers disappeared on the other side of the snowfield with remorse, and he did not blame them for leaving, because it was he who made this decision.
The cadre handed him a bottle of forbidden potion and let Xia Han drink it in person. The Marquis's actions became much more cautious, and he relied on potions to make Xia Han unable to cast spells for a certain period of time. The forbidden potion is the natural enemy of the mage, and the iron ring is useless against Xia Han, but it does.
Xia Han had now lost his sense of the elements, and there were no fireballs when he recited the spell. After all, the sixth-order mage is not strong, as long as the other party can afford to pay the money, there are many forbidden demon tools that can be used, of course, there is no way to deprive the spell for a long time.
[It was too wise to choose a mage in the first place. 】
When the departing figure could no longer be seen, Xia Han thought so, in fact, a large part of his power had nothing to do with mages, but fortunately it was forbidden potions - which allowed him to preserve other powers.
Of course, the people of this world must have forgotten the power he had.
"I didn't expect me to be worth more than a few thousand." Xia Han turned his head and looked at the Marquis of the Beast Clan beside him with a smile: "Can you tell me why?" ”
This was another reason why he chose to stay, and Xia Han was full of doubts about it. The cadre obviously didn't take the escaped humans seriously, and the term that came out of his mouth was 'hard labor' - the beasts did not wantonly slaughter the living people of the Qilin Continent, as long as they gave up the humans who resisted needlessly, they were used as slaves and hard laborers.
Xia Han didn't know what kind of life the people who fled to the Vermilion Bird Continent four years ago lived, but judging from the rumors, they were no happier than humans under the enslavement of the beast clan. This is a rather sad state of affairs, and the way in which different nations of mankind have dealt with it can be equated with alien races - how many nobles and commoners have left their homes with pain and hope for the future, but the result is not the same.
"Your value is not only the estimation of thousands of people" The cadre looked at Xia Han coldly, his eyes clearly flashed with killing intent, but the decision seemed to be inclined to protect Xia Han: "We will not kill you, this is an order from the prince, but I have no authority to tell you why." ”
There are eight layers of truth in the general's words, but he conceals two layers. The meaning of those two layers is that they will not kill Xia Han now, and it does not mean that they will not kill him in the future. However, even if he didn't say these words, Xia Han could know it. He wasn't in a hurry at all, because the rescuer mission shown in the picture book had been completed, which meant that Syracuse was about to fall.
What kind of fireworks will this be? 】
With a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, Xia Han slowly followed the cadre down the city wall.
Just a moment ago, in a frostleaf forest opposite the mage camp behind Syracuse, more than 3,000 human refugees pushed away the ice and walked out of the tunnel one after another.
The white tiger with the woman in his mouth found them. When the people heard that Xia Han and dozens of his companions were fighting alone to help them escape, weeping and remorse enveloped the entire Frostleaf Forest.
"Mother-in-law, how could my husband" "The captain is still over there!" "I should have snatched the guy's axe at the time"
No matter what they said, no one believed that the companions were still alive until the remaining twenty returned. As they walked into the woods, the crowd erupted in earth-shattering cheers and joy, and even the white tiger, who was lying on his stomach to replenish his spirits, was taken aback.
[Why isn't the boy here? 】
It thought like this, and the power in its body that did not belong to it was still swimming, which meant that Xia Han was still alive.
"Mother-in-law"
However, after the twenty people walked into the Frost Leaf Forest, there was no joy on their faces, only their eyes full of shame looked at the old woman, and then knelt on the ground: "We have lost our dignity as warriors, please punish us!" ”
In an army full of glory and mission, the way they left Syracuse was truly undignified.
"What's going on!" The old woman's face sank, but after hearing the whole thing, she just shook her head and sighed regretfully: "It's not your fault, it's the child's choice."
"The old man has never seen such an outstanding child." She lowered her head: "It's a pity, it's a pity"
[Just a pity?] 】
The white tiger was a little dissatisfied, how much effort it took its temporary owner to rescue these people, and he got a 'pity'. These two words can't even fill the scars on the noble body, and it almost died because it was also used as bait for these people!
"Is that good? It's just a pity," said the White Tiger in a low voice, "Why are you humans less loyal than us, but he is your king." ”
The entire forest fell silent for an instant.
"What did you say" the old woman's face turned pale: "What did you just say?" ”
"The king?" The white tiger looked at her suspiciously, didn't these humans know: "His name is Xia Han, I remember that it seems that your king succeeded to the throne four years ago"
The old woman's brain thundered, and she took a step back in distraction and embarrassment.
"You don't know me?" She finally remembered the beautiful face of the young man: at a point in a long time, when she first encountered the same beauty, it was also in this snow-white world.
She walked slowly on the snowy mountain looking for medicinal herbs, and suddenly shouted in a bell: "Hey, little girl over there!" ”
[Who calls the old body a little girl? She was annoyed by the young voice, but when she turned her head, she saw a blonde girl riding Suzuka with unparalleled beauty, and her towering ears represented the race, the long-lived elves.
"Little girl, I'm chasing someone." The girl smiled at her, like a blooming snow lotus: "Have you ever seen a girl with snow-white ears and a tail?" ”
It was that memory, that smile, that elf girl who fell in love with the king that the old woman served, and her face was exactly the same as that of the young man
"Confused" The old woman trembled her lips, and tears slid down her thin face: "Confused, how can the old body forget such an important thing, how can he live more and more confused!" ”
She turned around and glared around angrily: "The old man is old and confused, but why are you also confused!" She struck the ground with her cane and shouted tremblingly, "Quick, hurry up and save him, even if all of you are dead, you must get him out!" ”
Her angry tone shook the entire Frost Leaf Forest, and more than three thousand people knelt on the snow: "Mother-in-law, City Lord, please give a detailed order!" ”
How can they save Xia Han without weapons or even enough physical strength?
"Idiot!" The old woman trembled and pointed to the ground: "Go down, give me all down!" ”
"Destroy the city wall, collapse the barracks, blow up the Snow City and rescue Your Majesty, you won't, the old body will teach you how to do it!"
Few people know that Syracuse is the military base she used to blow up the old city and rebuild it when she was young
