Chapter 22 Reminder

Wu Qiu couldn't help frowning tightly as he listened to the beautiful singing echoing in the city. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

He stood on top of the city walls, keeping an eye on the city's every move.

“...... What did he want to do? Letting that princess sing will only make the soldiers restless......"

He noticed the nervous faces of some of the soldiers in the city, who had survived the "Song of Despair" and knew the meaning behind the beautiful sound.

“...... Hey, you said this is not ......"

"Why did 'The Swan Singer' come here, why did she sing in this place, could it be ......?"

"Idiot, silence, do you really want to get into trouble? Don't forget that one is His Majesty's concubine, and he is also a powerful person of the strategic level, and this is not something that we soldiers and pawns can talk about!"

Wu Qiu's sensitive sense of hearing could hear some soldiers whispering in a low voice, and they had an irrepressible fear of the "swan song girl" Naretia.

Listening to the song that seems to be like a heavenly sound, you will have endless despair, and then the song of death that self-termination, that absurd but realistic situation, the survivors can not forget.

"Isn't this a demoralization blow? It's clear that the decisive battle is just around the corner......

Wu Qiu didn't know why their rulers did this, and their majesty didn't say anything, so he sent his princess to this frontline city.

Although Naretta only appeared on the battlefield a few times during the Battle of Bellabet, her "swan song" reputation is deeply imprinted on every survivor who has listened to the "Song of Despair".

This legend, which is of a negative nature, is widely circulated among the common people, and even more so in the military.

This is not a false rumor made out of nothing, but a fact with substantial evidence, so when the soldiers here hear the voice that they can't forget even if they want to, they will inevitably lose their temper.

"Or is this actually some kind of scheme?"

Wu Qiu would not think that this was a willful act of their Majesty for a while, because he could clearly feel that in this loud singing, there was a faint flow of magic power.

He looked down at the outside of the city, and if that one had any plans, it was probably the group of people who were leaving now.

It was a group of about sixty people, some old and some young, all in rags, each with some slight injuries on their bodies, and the same tired look on their faces.

They were the officials in charge of the affairs of the Kingdom of Glen Lotton in the city, as well as their relatives, and after the city was breached, they became prisoners waiting to be released in the future.

But today, Naretta brought Lin Yuan's order to release the prisoners and send them to the capital of the Kingdom of Glen Loton.

"No matter how you look at it, it's boring......"

Wu Qiu didn't believe that His Majesty would be so kind-hearted and unconditionally release the captured prisoners, usually such people would only die a dead end, either be executed on a later day, or disappear into the underground prison of the Cursed Cannon Fortress Arkham.

"Is the swan song for them to hear? But what's the use of it? Let them go back to the capital and kill themselves in front of the public? If you just want to hit each other, it's too ordinary, right?"

In fact, Wu Qiu already had a way to attack the capital of the Glen Loton Kingdom, as long as he and Buckfere joined forces to break the defensive magic array of the opponent's capital, although there was a certain degree of difficulty, it could still be achieved.

However, they were ordered to stay still until a new order came down.

Then a week passed like this, the reinforcements of the Glen Loton Kingdom continued to arrive, the total strength of the other party has reached 150,000, and the number of mages is close to 50,000, although there is not one more strategic level mage, but such a force undoubtedly enhances the momentum of the other party and weakens the morale of the Kaos Empire.

The capital of the Glen Loton Kingdom was already impregnable, and at this time, Wu Qiu was not sure if he could destroy the opponent's defense, and the combined defensive power of 50,000 mages was enough to temporarily resist the attacks of several strategic-level mages.

If it weren't for their unfathomable majesty, who unleashed a strange magic spell and raised a magical forest on the border of the three kingdoms, making it impossible for anyone to pass through and break through, then they would have to face directly the peacekeepers from the Spell Council, more soldiers, and even several strategic magisters.

Wu Qiu had asked his friend what their majesty was waiting for, even at the cost of wasting the best opportunity to attack, and Buckferi didn't know what plan was being prepared above, so he could only make the most preliminary guesses.

"Perhaps, Your Majesty wants to wipe out the combat power of the three kingdoms in one go. ”

Wu Qiu and Buckfere felt that things might not be so simple, but they couldn't speculate on anything without knowing more details.

The army led by Wu Qiu and the others was an emergency group of 30,000 recruits, and it was just a joke to make them fight against five times their own strength, and it was absolutely impossible to win.

Moreover, the battle has always been won by forcibly breaking through with the strength of the two of them, destroying the enemy's central command system, otherwise with a force of 30,000 people, it is impossible to take down half of the land of a country, even if the Kingdom of Glen Lotton is a weak country.

In this situation of complete superiority, their 30,000 soldiers also lost nearly 5,000 people and wounded more than 7,000 people, and the disadvantage of insufficient training was fully revealed.

Fortunately, the Kaos Empire will be replenished from time to time with new troops, otherwise the troops they lead can be retreated now.

The demobilization team outside the city farther and farther away, the singing echoing in the city gradually stopped, and the soldiers who seemed nervous also exhaled the depression in their chests and relaxed.

Wu Qiu pondered for a while, thinking that it was better to ask clearly, he didn't know what the plan was, it was difficult for him to plan the next action, so he walked down the city wall and went to where Naretia was.

In the center of the city, in the open square in front of the Governor's Castle, now heavily guarded on the perimeter, became an area closed to civilians.

In the center of the square, a newly built black obelisk was erected, and in order to protect the ten-meter-high ornament, the place was forbidden to idle people to enter and exit.

Wu Qiu glanced at the obelisk with a gloomy face.

He doesn't like this thing.

Ordinary civilians would think that this obelisk was an ornament built by the Kaos Empire in order to show off its power and declare its sovereignty, but Wu Qiu clearly knew that this thing was not so simple.

It's a magic prop.

This is a magic item that connects to the half-dimensional fantasy realm and can influence the thoughts of city dwellers at all times.

To put it simply, it's a magic item used for brainwashing.

It is impossible for the residents of the cities of this country to be captured by force, they will definitely secretly plot conspiracies, so based on the above reasons, Lin Yuan prepared this magic prop.

All the cities in the captured area have either built this structure or are in the process of preparing it.

As long as the obelisk still stands on the ground for a day, the inhabitants inside will be affected by the spirit and will not have a heart of resistance.

The existence of the obelisk will cause irreversible mental changes over time, and no matter how crazy the patriot is, his sense of belonging to the kingdom of Glen Loton will disappear completely, and he will become aware of the rule of the Kaos Empire.

Lin Yuan called the plan "Operation Patriot."

Although Wu Qiu didn't like to forcibly reverse other people's thinking like this, he was powerless to oppose it when he thought of his own situation.

He clearly knew that he had been completely controlled by Lin Yuan, and his mind and thoughts had changed to a certain extent, but he wouldn't care about these things anymore.

That's the price of gaining power.

Wu Qiu shook his head, put aside the troubles of inaction in his heart, and found Naretia by the fountain in the square.

Dressed in a long black dress, Narettia sat on the edge of the fountain, her hands caressing the rippling water.

Sensing approaching, Naretia turned her head away with a flat expression.

"Your Royal Highness, it's rude. ”

Wu Qiubi bowed respectfully and bent over, doing enough etiquette, the identities of the two are very different, even the strength is not comparable to the other party, and it is a public occasion, he must do everything well.

Even if no one will chew the base of his tongue, superficial etiquette is still necessary.

And he didn't have to face others when he bent over, he knew very well how hideous and terrifying his appearance was to outsiders.

After devouring the red reincarnated egg, he became a fire demon, and his human body also changed to a certain extent, his height increased by more than ten centimeters, and the muscles all over his body increased.

Wu Qiu didn't feel inferior to his current appearance, but he knew how others would feel when they saw it, so if he could cover it up, he wouldn't mind doing it.

"General Wu Qiu, the question in your heart, Your Majesty has already told me. ”

Hearing the other party's words, Wu Qiu's body shook slightly.

"Despair is contagious, and despair is a chain. ”

Narretia's faint voice rang out.

"There are some things you don't need to know, you just need to understand that in a few days or so, there will be unstoppable unrest in the capital of the kingdom, and then it will be a good opportunity for you to attack. ”

There was a pause in her voice.

"The next words are not an order from Your Majesty, but a reminder from me to you. ”

Wu Qiu couldn't help but raise his head.

Naretia closed her eyes and sighed softly.

"On that day, you must not enter the confines of the capital, listen, you can only fight outside the city, absolutely, absolutely, do not step into the gates......"

All kinds of thoughts popped up in Wu Qiu's heart, and just as he wanted to ask one more question, Naretia's figure gradually disappeared in front of his eyes.

Wu Qiu, who stood in a daze in the uninhabited square, unable to know anything clearly, left with a sigh after a long time.
