Chapter 243: The Strange Riptide Castle

Riptide Castle, as the first capital of human beings in this world, its status among the human race naturally needs not be said. Majestic and magnificent is its characteristic, mottled vicissitudes are its history, no need to get close to look closely, even if you are far away, you can feel a thick and distant heritage through its outline.

Dozens of miles away in the Riptide Castle, two red dragons were soaring in the sky, one of the dragons had a chaise longue on top of its head, inlaid with gold and silver, jewels, and a human man with black hair and black eyes was sitting on a chaise longitude, with a strange expression on his face, as if he had encountered something that surprised him.

"This is Riptide Castle that has been overrun by the Shadow Council? It doesn't feel like it. ”

Leo scratched his face, and through the vision shared by the crows, he saw the general situation of Riptide Castle, a situation that surprised him.

At this time, the Riptide Fort was a scene of people coming and going, and the noise of people and horses was really lively.

People and cars?

Yes, that's right, Leo asked himself if he would think of other creatures as humans. The commoners were busy for their livelihoods, and the carriages of the nobles drove through the streets of the city from time to time, and the nasty cries of the coachmen provoked the anger of the commoners.

How can this scene look like it has been invaded by foreigners?

Leo's first reaction when he saw Riptide Castle was actually like this: someone had cast an illusion, but through the confirmation of Pelicion and Hectoz, this idea was dismissed.

Since it's not illusion magic, the prosperity of Riptide Castle is real? Or is it just a deliberate illusion?

With doubts in mind, Leo dispersed the five crows and took in the entire situation at Riptide Castle, and as expected, he quickly spotted the problem.

From the main entrance of Riptide Castle to the castle in the city center, there is really no problem with this part, but with the castle in the city center as the dividing line, the part of Riptide Fort that is forcibly separated from the outside world by a group of human soldiers is completely different. In this section, you can only see a group of mysterious and sneaky orcs in black cloaks, and some big fat men equipped with iron weapons and armor - ogres.

The ogre's iron equipment was clearly made by a human blacksmith, and this discovery made Leo frown, and he had a bad premonition.

Actually asked a human blacksmith to build equipment for the ogre, and the person in charge of Riptide Fort could never be on the side of the humans, because Leo clearly saw that compared to the ogre's newly built iron equipment, many human soldiers actually couldn't even make up a complete set of leather armor.

What happened to Riptide Castle, and how did it become what it is now? Also, what happened to Scarlett's silly girl?

Leo was observing the situation at Riptide Castle, and the next scene he saw directly shocked him.

A group of human soldiers escorted a group of ragged civilians into Fort Riptide, where ogres and orcs lived, and the unclothed civilians knew at a glance that life was very difficult, and that they were homeless people who had been implicated in the Battle of the Arathi Heights.

In Leo's mind, this is a group of desperate refugees who come to find a place to stay after learning about the situation at Riptide Castle. The external part of Riptide Fort is indeed very confusing, and if the news is spread by people with intentions, the people at the bottom who don't know what the situation is will be 100% fooled.

Seeing these refugees being taken to the quarantined inner city, Leo had a bad premonition in his heart.

Seeing the human refugees brought in, the orcs just looked twice and went about their business, but the ogres surrounded them with a speed that did not match their size at all, and the refugees trembled with fear as they looked at these heavily armed alien races with hideous faces.

Leo's heart tightened when the ogres surrounded him, these ogres wouldn't be going to ...... "There is food again." ”

A group of ogres laughed and dragged out the cowering refugees, who trembled and struggled, and the ogre's weapons smashed down...... "Damn! ”

Leo on Pelicion's head was furious, and he only heard a click, and the golden armrest of the chaise longue was broken by his agitation.

"Bastard, who the hell is in charge of Riptide Castle? I'm going to kill him. ”

His chest rose and fell violently, the magic power of the Legendary Realm powerhouse fluctuated, and Leo's face was gloomy and terrifying.

The principal of Riptide Castle clearly used the attracted human refugees as food rations for the ogres, and he created the illusion that Riptide Castle was back in the hands of humans, and deceived the unknown human refugees into entering Riptide Castle, which was simply sinister and hateful.

This trick is extremely insidious, and when it is learned that Fort Riptide is back in human hands, the vast majority of human refugees who have been displaced by the war will choose to go to Fort Riptide instead of the Valley of Refuge.

As a result, the Arathas coalition led by Prince Galen did not have enough troops to expand quickly, and the human refugees who entered Fort Riptide not only fattened the ogre army in the city, but also caused the number of Terrans in the Arathi Heights to be greatly reduced due to their large number of deaths, and the human control over the entire highlands was weakened, so that it was convenient for other forces to control the place.

This is to cut off the domination of mankind over the Arathi Heights, and to achieve the goal of taking this vast highland into their own hands.

To come up with such a sinister solution, it must be the guys from the Shadow Council.

Leo is very hot, not because the orcs of the Shadow Council are insidious and cunning, and the battles between races are intrigues and tricks, which is a common thing. The reason for his anger was the humans of Riptide Castle, the human soldiers who drove the refugees to the ogre, the human soldiers who watched the ogres eat the refugees who were also Terrans and did not respond, the human nobles who drove by in a carriage but turned a blind eye, these people seemed to him to be damned.

Closing his eyes, Leo couldn't bear to look at the refugees, there were still some children among the refugees, and he couldn't bear to see the end of these children. If Leo was close, he still had the possibility of rescuing these refugees, but he was still dozens of miles away, and it was too late for him to kill them.

No wonder Scarlett's stupid girl rushed to Riptide Castle, it must have been Prince Galen who got the news of Riptide Castle, and Scarlett couldn't bear it.

This stupid girl is still too idealistic, what use can she kill a paladin in the legendary realm alone? She couldn't save anyone but put herself in. If he could break through Riptide Castle, Prince Galen would have killed him with his army, and it would be her turn to take the risk?

"Pellision, Ektoz, what should I do?"

Leo lay back heavily, the weight of his entire body pressed on it, he knew very well that in addition to the above-mentioned purpose, the principal of Riptide Castle also had a purpose, which was to attract the strongest of the human race to throw themselves into the net.

Treating humans as food, slaughtering them to make food for ogres, and a group of humans fighting for tigers, helping aliens to harm their fellow races, can the strong human beings endure it? They are bound to enter Fort Riptide to save people, but they don't know that they are the ones behind the Riptide Castle incident.

"Wouldn't I be stupid to put myself in danger and drill into it knowing that it was a trap? They're all otherworldly, they're just a bunch of NPCs......"

I knew it was a trap, but my emotions kept telling Leo that you should try to break through, and that there were some things that could not be avoided no matter what.

"Am I really going to watch humans being treated as food for a foreign race and do nothing?"

Leo sighed faintly, the people of the other world are also human, and these terrans can get his sense of identity more than ogres and orcs.

Knowing that it was a trap and breaking through, this was definitely something that only a fool did, but Leo found that no matter how much he restrained him, he just had an urge to be stupid.

"If you don't do anything, I really can't do it."

In many cases, the saddest thing for people is their own level.

"Silly is stupid, Riptide Castle I am imperative, Pelicion, find a place where no one is there and let me go."

Once he made up his mind, even if Riptide Fort was a tiger's den in Longtan, Leo would break into it, but he didn't crash into it like a stunned head, with the ability of the Shadow Council, Leo would definitely be covered in blood if he hit it now.

He can't save today's group of refugees, and now there is still a whole day before the next day when the ogre eats people, and he plans to enter Rapids Fort first to see what is going on.

It is very difficult for the strong to enter Riptide Castle silently, and the Shadow Council definitely has a way to determine the strength of everyone who enters Riptide Castle, unless you use a special method to hide yourself, otherwise you will be detected as soon as you get close. This problem may be difficult for others, but it can't pose much trouble to Leo, who has the ability to escape.

The ability to escape after killing Olena allows Leo to hide himself well, making him look no different from ordinary people, and the only features of his black hair and black eyes that reveal his identity are hidden by him - using the simple makeup technique he learned at MI7, he turns his hair blonde, and then approves a black cloak that has been deliberately tattered, and it is difficult for anyone to associate him with the legendary Warlock Leo, who has been in the limelight lately.

At least not the human guards guarding the gates of Riptide.

Mixed in with the rush of refugees towards Riptide Castle, Leo easily blends in, entering a city that was once the pride of humanity but is now being used against the Terrans by alien controls.

Although the refugees will be taken by the guards to a certain place after entering Fort Riptide, how can the ability of these guards be able to look down on Leo who wants to escape?

The guards of the strength of the mid-level warriors were simply ornaments in front of the legendary powerhouses who were bent on getting rid of them, and at a turning intersection, Leo quietly disappeared into the darkness, not even aware of the guards who were actually escorting the refugees in the name of protection.

Now, it's just a matter of getting dark.
