Chapter 305: Procrastination
Early in the morning, as soon as the sky was bright, a group of black-clothed people were waiting in the stronghold outside the high post barrier, and the blue-robed mage left the high post barrier with someone pretending to be a caravan late last night.
The sky was getting brighter, and a group of scholars from the Mystical Archive were waiting in the small room next to the airship docking, and the blue-robed mage asked the scholars guarding the stronghold with an unhappy face, "Have you contacted the other side, why hasn't the airship come yet, isn't it usually early in the morning, it's all dawn this day, and not a single airship has come." ”
"Lord Grown, the airship set off last night, it stands to reason that it should have arrived early, but it has not been seen, I think maybe something is wrong on the way, after all, airship damage still happens from time to time."
"You hurry up and ask what the situation is under the contact", the blue-robed mage is also helpless, the Mystical Archive organization does have a communication device for mutual contact, similar to the size of a box, of course, there is also a signal transmitter for WeChat, but this transmitter can only send signals, not voice contact, limited by volume and production costs, the airship is not equipped with this kind of contact, only each stronghold has it.
……
"Boom~" The airship fell diagonally from the air and smashed into the ground, igniting a fire.
In the sky, a team of angels carefully checked the fish around the airship, and after confirming that nothing was missed, they left leisurely.
"Vice-captain, a total of three airships flying in the direction of the barrier were eliminated early this morning."
"Good job, continue to patrol, no matter from which direction, as long as the airships that break into our air defense circle are all killed, they must not be missed, there are sentry posts left around, and there are no stops left around those black-clothed people, and if there is any abnormal movement, report to me immediately", the Seraphic Angel Yaoyang looked in the direction of the stronghold of those black-clothed people, and wanted to run? If it weren't for the guards guarding the gate last night, you would have almost succeeded.
Yaoyang firmly believes in his heart that the statement about the artifact fragments is very likely to be correct, at that time, the ruins of the Dragon City were so sensational, and the rats of these secret archives were only dispatched six legends, but they quietly gathered almost twenty legends in this border town, if it weren't for the artifact fragments, it was not worth paying so much attention to it, but unfortunately, it was a little late when I got the news here, and I rushed over as the vanguard a day ago, and after confirming the accuracy of the news, I continued to send support from other places, I'm afraid it will take at least five days for reinforcements to arrive, and with my current four legendary teams, I can only find a way to stop them from escaping.
The blue-robed mage had a bad premonition in his heart, there were three airships that were supposed to come to pick up people today, starting from different strongholds, but now that the sun has risen early, I haven't seen the shadow of an airship, it seems that I was still late yesterday, it was definitely done by those hateful angels, I can't be wrong, I'm afraid that the airship has been more than lucky, what now? Walking the ground carriage?
The blue-robed mage shook his head secretly, the speed of the carriage was too slow compared to the air, and the high hill barrier to the north, just from the plains to the plateau, just wasting a lot of time around those mountains, how could the ground run compared to the angels flying in the air, now the worst situation is that those angels are waiting for reinforcements, they have found that we have infiltrated the territory of the Templar, and want to take advantage of the geographical advantage to kill all the enemies they have infiltrated.
The blue-robed mage secretly regretted that he should have left decisively when he caught the owl, who would have thought that such a secret stronghold would be discovered by those angels, no, there were no angels stationed near this barrier when they came, it was impossible to see it from the air, how did they find out?
Are they passing by? No, the Muhu area belongs to an area that has been developed for a long time, there are no valuable relics, and there are no valuable and rare resource veins, even the Nords have given up arguing with the Templars in the Muhu area early, this is the kind of barren area, how can an angel pass by here?
It's not easy to do, I don't know why the angel came here, there is no way to clearly choose the next countermeasures, what's worse is that this belongs to the area where the northern division and the western branch meet, plus it's barren, it's not a key area, and the construction of the information network is so-so, and it's basically impossible to get the exact information you want.
"President, what should I do next, continue to contact other bases to send airships over?"
The blue-robed mage looked at the sky silently, hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth, "No, let's bring supplies, and a liaison, and take a carriage to go, it's too dangerous to stay here, we have many legendary powerhouses, and we are not afraid of angels coming to attack, we have to leave here as soon as possible, after all, this place is too close to the city of the Holy Temple." ”
……
"Bad guy~ Bad guy, you give me some white bread to eat~" The girl owl looked at Lin Ze's turn to guard in the carriage, and Lin Ze also took two white bread for lunch, and immediately activated the communication necklace, "The stomach of this woman's black bread crumbs hurts, it hurts, it's like there is dregs stirring in the stomach~ Bad guy, just give me a little white bread crumbs~" After the girl's noise that day, the other people in black reported that the girl didn't eat small meat worms, which can be regarded as saving trouble, after all, the little meat worms have to send someone to dig them, Eventually, the maiden's food was replaced with black bread crumbs.
Lin Ze directly ignored a certain owl staring at him, and ate it to himself, he was not the only caretaker in the carriage, it would be bad if he was suspected of making good food for the girl, ignoring it was the best choice, the carriage had been on the road for three days, and it was like a snail every day for a short while, and from time to time there would be a large pit on the road ahead, and a large number of trees piled up together to block the road would be put down, anyway, the carriage would not go smoothly.
Suddenly, the carriage stopped again.
"Damn, this is the only way up the Plateau Mountains!" There was an angry scolding from outside the carriage, and it seemed that the angels had done something that made the scholars scold.
Through the car window, you can see that the road has been blocked by a large number of falling rocks, and on both sides of the road is an empty cliff and a straight cliff face that is difficult to climb.
"Don't rub it off, get off the carriage, use the levitation technique, go up a few people, pull the horses and the carriage up, there is a rope on the carriage", the blue-robed mage was no longer able to curse the birdmen who were blocking them, and now he felt more and more that time was pressing, after so many days, the team had just reached the entrance of the plateau, and it was obvious that the purpose of those birdmen slowing down their movements had been achieved.
Levitation is a spell that generates an upward thrust, and the heavier the object, the more energy it consumes to use the levitation technique, and it took about two more hours for the group to cross the obstacle and follow the road to the plateau, from here, they have left the territory of the Sanctuary and belong to the land of the Nords.
