"With the suspicions you have, and tonight's events, it's hard not to doubt them. I hope you will cooperate with you. ”
Faced with the appearance of the general who was not smiling, Ning Yue instinctively clenched his fists, glanced at the five soldiers around him who were obviously ill-intentioned, and finally, suddenly smiled jokingly.
"Do you think you can control me with these few people? Even if I can't play sixty percent of my strength at my peak now, it will not be difficult to deal with you. ”
The other party also smiled and replied: "If you dare to fight back now, then the crime will be confirmed." Think about this. ”
Ning Yue snorted: "Crime? What are you going to convict me of? ”
"Spying on intelligence, and even assassinating high-ranking generals of our army. Such suspicions are legitimately present at impermissible times and in regions. Once you get your hands on it, ......"
Before he could finish speaking, the general's eyes changed suddenly. Because, Ning Yue really made a move.
Boom!
With a kick and a kick, Ning Yue easily kicked a soldier over, stretched out his left hand and then pressed the wooden table on the side suddenly, and once again took up his body, shook in the void, and dodged the oblique slash of a person behind him very casually. The moment he landed, he slammed a backhand punch and hit the opponent's lower abdomen.
In an instant, the man's face twitched, and he fell to his knees with a pop, screaming incessantly.
"You kid!"
The general was suddenly furious, and his sword was drawn in response, and what he saw in his eyes was the figure of Ning Yue giving up the remaining soldiers and attacking him directly.
With a stroke of cold light, the cold instantly stopped, and under the silver rainbow, another bright green sword light was even more dazzling and conspicuous, and the darkness was like a ghostly flame.
A translucent condensed sword blade that appeared out of thin air grazed the underside of the general's sword, and the tip of the sword was directly pressed against his slightly jerking throat. The end of the blade was attached under the sleeve of Ning Yue's right hand.
Victory or defeat, but it will be known in an instant.
"Ning Yue, what do you want to do! Kill me, you can't get out of this two wolf pass alive, think clearly. The general gritted his teeth and snorted, and was restrained in one move, in addition to shock, there was also shame.
"Don't worry, I have no interest in your life. Just trying to tell you something. If I really want to assassinate any of the generals in this pass, I don't need to go around the bush. ”
When the words fell, Ning Yue withdrew the condensing light sword blade, and with a tremor of his wrist, the blade dissipated into the void. He sat back in his chair and winked at the somewhat bewildered doctor.
The doctor looked at the general in front of him suspiciously, and after receiving affirmation, he began to help Ning Yue deal with the wounds on his body again.
"You're doing it for yourself. I can't cure you, but there are a lot of people who are better than you at the border of the Northern Regions, so don't be too crazy. ”
Leaving these words, the general waved his hand and hurriedly left with several of his subordinates. Of course, he also took away the severed hand that Ning Yue handed him just now.
Ning Yue didn't reply to him, not with disdain, but after he sat down again, a thought flashed through his mind, a key point that he had been ignoring.
The Eclipse Yin who was killed by him tonight was not all the way to Gagu, and it was likely that he was in league with the other demon force that released the mutated demonic beast this time. In that case, if you really want to break through the city pass, with the concealment ability of the eclipse yin, quietly assassinate a few key generals before you start, you can undoubtedly break through the city pass more easily.
However, instead of doing that, he chose to attack Ning Yue.
"It seems that in his opinion, I need to be killed in time more than those high-ranking generals at the border gates? No, he shouldn't know my identity, otherwise, according to the past lessons of the demon race, how dare he use one person to deal with me...... Lessons from the past...... The mutant monster had encountered it before, and at that time I was still thinking that it was the enemy of the past who had reappeared. That's right, their purpose is not to break through the city pass at all! ”
Thinking of this, Ning Yue couldn't help laughing. There may be troubles, but at least, with Gacchus' friend ordering the withdrawal of the army in the near future, the army of the other force should not linger long. Relying only on those nomadic tribes, their experiments of releasing demonic beasts to hunt and kill could not be carried out.
……
"What, are you saying that within three days, the demon army that rushed to the aid of those nomadic tribes outside the gate will retreat? Is the message reliable? ”
Looking at Ning Yue, who suddenly disturbed his rest in front of him, General Lu had a puzzled face, but he couldn't ignore the other party's serious eyes. So, he glanced at the guard beside him. Soon, only he and Ning Yue were left alone in the not spacious room.
Ning Yue casually pulled out a chair and sat down, shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's just my guess, but there is some basis." It's just that where the basis came from, I can't disclose. There are some things, if it were General Lu, you should be able to see it, right? ”
General Lu smiled helplessly: "Why can I see it? I've heard about the aftermath of last night, when you negotiated with you, but you let the captives go in front of everyone on the castle tower. And tonight, when my adjutant came to report that you were going to see me, he mentioned it by the way, and you just made a mess again? ”
Ning Yue sighed: "No way, some of the ways I do things are not easy to explain to the soldiers who guard the border here all the year round. But I assure you, I'm definitely on the same side as you. And among the many generals who are now guarding the Two Wolf Pass, I think that only General Lu is still willing to believe me. ”
"Trust you? To be honest, I don't want to. It's just that last night, before leaving, Marshal North sent me a message, don't think too much about some things that may be beyond common sense in you, don't doubt them. Moreover, Alain trusts you a lot, so at the very least, I won't see you as an object of suspicion. But I can't change the minds of other soldiers. ”
"I don't need you to change, I just hope that I can do a favor. Help me bring a message to the supreme commander of these two wolf passes, if the demon army outside the pass retreats, the next action will be done according to what I say, and don't be suspicious of me anymore. ”
"What do you want to do next?"
"Save people. There was a caravan that brought all the children who were seized by the demons, and as a threat, they were forced to take thirty mutated demonic beasts into the Two Wolves Pass without telling the world. But now, Kannai is safe. They are also excusable, so I think we still need to help them get their children back. Of course, when there are slightly fewer enemies outside the gates. ”
……
On the third day, the demon army stationed outside the gate still had no movement of retreating.
Ning Yue still looked light, and sat in his place and drank tea slowly. Although there was no retreat outside the pass, no further offensive was launched. After that night, the border of the Northern Regions was much calmer for the time being. It's just that the soldiers guarding the town don't dare to relax at all, and they are still ready for battle.
"Ning Yue, are you too calm? Although General Zhao, the supreme commander of these two wolf passes, agreed to your bet, he didn't care about what would happen if you lost. However, you can't be afraid because of this. In the past few days, the two wolves have gossip about you. ”
On the other side of the table, Twilight Yinyin put down the empty teacup in her hand.
Ning Yue shook his head and smiled: "You also said it, it's just rumors, what do you care about?" In order to leak the news, General Zhao did not spread the news of my bet with him, but he also promised me that if the enemy really retreated, he would inform the whole army of this matter. At that time, there will be a lot less suspicion of me. Besides, I'm not in a hurry, what are you anxious about? ”
"Who said I was in a hurry? It's just a warning to you, don't look too casual and make people uncomfortable. Twilight snorted and got up to leave.
"Don't forget, it's you going to stand guard at the castle tower this afternoon. Even if someone may have objections to you, just bear with it and don't act impulsively. ”
Ning Yue also put down the teacup and sighed helplessly: "Why is there an objection? The other newcomers were led by a few veterans as guides, but every time I went out, I was staring at twice as much, for fear that I would make a little unexpected move. Here, it's really not for me. ”
Time passed quickly, and soon afternoon came.
Together with Chang Xuanxuan, Xiao Ao, and Shen Ding, they came to the top of the city tower, and Ning Yue looked at the vast wasteland in the distance, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart the vastness and vastness of heaven and earth.
It's just that the continuous black shadow in the distance is very eye-catching, and there is the camp of the demon army.
"At this distance, you shouldn't be able to reach the range of any weapon, right?"
Ning Yue pointed ahead, however, the more than ten soldiers on his side looked like they were ignoring him, and they didn't take his words to heart at all.
On the side, Shen Ding replied: "With the help of the wind, coupled with the condescending position, the effective range of the strong arm bow equipped by ordinary soldiers can reach three hundred meters. And large instruments such as the Flying Stone Fire and the Guanyun Crossbow can reach a distance of kilometers. So every time, those nomadic tribes would choose to camp two thousand meters away just in case. ”
Nodding, Ning Yue asked again: "In addition to the Flying Stone Fire and the Guanyun Crossbow, there should be other more terrifying heavy weapons in this pass, right?" ”
With obvious hesitation in his eyes, Shen Ding shook his head and said, "Maybe there is, but I haven't seen it either." After all, the northern part of the Snow Dragon Empire has been at war with the demon nomadic tribe for hundreds of years, and there should be some special means. It's just that it won't be used until the critical time of survival. ”
"Is the power of that terrifying weapon even fearful of yourself?"
Ning Yue understood, and soon, smiled slightly, and raised his finger forward.
"I guess I won't need it this year, right? You see, it seems that they are going to retreat? ”
"What?"
Shen Ding was startled, and rushed to the wall of the city tower with an arrow step, looking ahead from afar.
In his sight, on the camp that had shrunk into dense black spots, it was clear that a few wisps of smoke and dust were rising, and a large column of troops withdrew from it and rushed further north in the distance.
"So, retired from the army?"
The rest of the soldiers were also shocked, and at the same time hurriedly summoned the heralds and ordered them to inform the officers and soldiers of the various departments.
"It seems that what Gagu promised me, and what I guessed, were correct. Almost, it's time to move on to the next step. ”
The left fist was clenched tightly and raised to his chest, and Ning Yue's eyes were much more awe-inspiring.
"The people who threaten the lives of their loved ones and force them to give up their faith, your life, I will decide!"
