Chapter 9: Centurion Caught!

Huo Keai patted his head: "Yes, they take the mountain road, let's take the military road, we must have arrived first!" Brothers, hurry up and pack up and get ready to go! โ€

Kane met with the dwarven sniper and briefly explained the situation, and this time he finally succeeded in convincing the hero, and it seems that the shock of the mushroom cloud is still very effective. The dwarven sniper made a quick decision, mobilized 3,000 guards, personally led, and drove from the military road to a tower fortress on the lower road of the natural disaster! And the nearly forty adventurers naturally followed, gearing up one by one, ready to do a big job.

And just as the army was preparing, in the woods near the Guards Fortress, the space twisted, and then a blue oval portal appeared, and three people came out of it, the Persian cat in front, and the Shangguan carrying Ma Le in the back. The three watched from afar as the army packed up and walked out of view until they were completely out of sight, and the three finally breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of the woods......

At the same time, in the black dragon's lair, a dull breath came from under the rubble, and then with a bang, a pair of wings covering the sky and the sun were unfurled from the rocks, and they flapped twice, bringing out a huge body.

It was a fifty-meter-long super dragon, covered in black scales, a huge dragon head the size of a truck, two large curved horns on the top of its head, and a red sarcoma in the center of its forehead, which shone with a strange brilliance, and you could feel the unusually active magic fluctuations from a distance. The bloody mouth was even more terrifying, the curved fangs were more than half a meter long, and the roar with the smell of blood shimmered in the sunlight. And the thorns on the back, the thick limbs, the huge dragon claws, and the thick dragon tail all show the terrifying power and make people daunting.

Needless to say, this super dragon must be the owner of the black dragon's lair, the black dragon king with the heart of the dragon. Compared to him, those of the same kind who are only seven or eight meters long can indeed only be called "mayflies".

The mighty Black Dragon King roared a few times and looked down at the rubble on the ground. Longshan is originally a thin mountain, because many dragons live there, and there are many caves in the mountain, and the whole structure is very fragile. This miniature nuclear bomb directly broke and shattered the mountain, and many black mayflies that had no time to escape were crushed to death by the boulder, and even if they were not dead, most of them broke their wings and were unable to fly, so they could only lie in the rubble and scream.

Seeing his subjects dead and wounded, the Black Dragon King was furious, and he let out a long roar, summoning several black dragons that were still sound, and gurgling in his throat. When the black dragons heard this, they all looked in one direction, which was where the Persian cats were before. Because of the attraction of the salute, many black mayflies saw it, and it was here that a small thing shot out and blew up Longshan, and I remember that there were still a few humans there at that time.

The Black Dragon King vibrated his wings, and in a few ups and downs, he came to that high ground, checked it, and suddenly his nose moved, and he looked down to see the shirt that had been ripped off Ma Le's body, with the smell of herbs and sweat.

The Black Dragon King roared angrily a few times, and nearly a hundred black mayflies flew out of the ruins of Longshan, all of which were spared in this landslide, and they were not injured or only slightly injured, which did not affect flight and combat.

The Black Dragon King roared a few times, picked up the shirt with the tip of his fingernails, and threw it into the air, when several black mayflies flew over to catch it, sniffing the smell while scrambling, and threw it to the black mayflies behind after sniffing, and soon, nearly a hundred monsters remembered the unique smell.

The Black Dragon King let out another low roar, and nearly a hundred black mayflies scattered in all directions, starting to search for the special smell. Soon, a black mayfly smelled, and the source of the smell was a rag dropped by the Persian cat not far away, followed by the second and third rags were also found one after another, and the black dragon army flew in the direction of the cloth, with a fierce momentum, pointing directly at the fortress of the First Tower of the Guard!

"Stop, whoever!"

At an outpost in the fortress of the First Guard Tower, a team of Terran soldiers found three Persian cats, and the leader of the squad pointed at the Persian cat with the tip of his sword and shouted.

The adventurers' appearances are all human, and the guards on the side of the camp look like they don't have any sense of disobedience. But the natural disaster is a bit of a dazzle. Therefore, in the setting of the system, the appearance of the adventurers of the Cataclysm side has been slightly adjusted in the eyes of the plot characters, their skin is darker, their eyes are blood-red, and they look like the descendants of the Cataclysm.

At this time, the Persian cat and Shangguan had changed into a suit of armor of a natural disaster soldier, and Ma Le behind Shangguan was wearing a slightly mutilated set of centurion officer armor. In the eyes of the Terran soldiers, the three of them were the three wolf bรจi Scourge legionnaires.

"Don't do it! We surrender! The Persian cat first raised his hands to show that he had no weapons, and then pretended to be trembling and said: "We are here to surrender, those guys are crazy, they are going to find trouble with the black dragon, that is to send them to death." No, before we could get there, we were attacked by monsters, and our centurion was seriously injured. We don't want to be in the company of those madmen, and we're going to join the Guards......"

When the captain of the Terran soldiers heard this, he burst out laughing: "Ha, I have been a soldier for more than ten years, and I have heard of those who escaped from the battle, and I have never heard of those who plan to join the hostile forces, do you think that our Holy Guards Legion will contain cursed creatures like you?" Brothers, go on, kill them! As he spoke, he rushed up with his big sword, and the soldiers behind him were also violent, so frightened that the Persian cat and Shangguan Yunhong trembled, turned around and ran, throwing Ma Le on the ground and not caring about it.

Although Shangguan and the Persian cat are thin and small, their agility is not low, how can the two of them run and be chased by ordinary guards? In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the jungle.

"These two boys are not very daring, and they run quite fast!" One of the guards took a sip and scolded disdainfully.

"It's okay, it's all small fish!" The captain of the soldiers laughed and said, "They left this officer behind!" The credit for capturing a centurion alive is not small, go, bring him back! So saying, he commanded his soldiers to lift up their horses.

"Oh my God, Captain, is this guy really a victim of the natural disaster!" As soon as the soldier in charge of carrying it exerted his strength, he immediately complained: "How do I feel that this guy is heavier than an orc!" Is there lead in his bones? โ€

"Don't talk nonsense, you won't be tired by lifting someone, you don't like to go away, and you won't have your share in the reward when the time comes!" Hearing the captain's scolding, the soldier shrank his head, stopped complaining, and went to work honestly.

The centurion is a mid-level officer of the Scourge Legion, his name is just a title, not a strict management of a hundred people, and his military rank is about equivalent to that of a major in reality. And the squad leader of this Guards Regiment is at most the rank of a lieutenant, and when he catches such a big official, he is naturally extremely proud, and as soon as he returns to the fortress, he registers with the clerk to invite merit.

This clerk is not a mercenary goblin anymore, but a short and fat man in his forties. As soon as he saw Ma Le, he covered his nose: "This guy is the centurion you said?" Why is it such a strange smell? โ€

"Yes?" The soldiers fought all day on the battlefield, and their noses were numbed by the strong smell of blood after a bloody battle last night. In addition, this squad leader was so eager to take credit that he didn't even notice the strange smell on Ma Le's body: "It's probably a herb for healing injuries...... Leave that alone, make a note of it for me, and capture one of the Centurions alive! โ€

The clerk wrote it down lazily, and then asked the military doctor to see Ma Le's state, according to the custom of the ruins defense war, there are only three ways to deal with the prisoners who are caught, one is to torture the information, the second is to use it as a slave and hard labor, and the third is to kill it directly. However, if the prisoner is an officer with a certain status, then before disposal, he is generally hung on the fortress wall to show the public, on the one hand, to suppress the morale of the enemy army, and secondly, it is also a kind of commendation for the meritorious service.

The military doctor is generally a priest who knows how to treat magic, and the level is not low, and after the evaluation, it was concluded that the man was completely healthy, and even strong, but his spirit seemed to be very weak, and it was speculated that he had been mentally shocked and temporarily lost his ability to move.

"Then find a piece of wood and hang it on the wall!" The clerk said lazily, and then asked the team leader, "What did you just say your name was?" โ€

The team leader said excitedly: "My name is Jonah, I was just transferred from Rolling Stone Fortress last month, and now I am the team leader!" โ€

"It's not good to stay in the back, what are you doing in this place?" The registrar muttered as he wrote Jonah's name on a large wooden plaque with a thick brush.

"I'm fed up with a comfortable life, a real man should sweat and bleed on the battlefield, drive natural disasters out of the mainland, and pay his youth for the victory of the Guards Legion!"

The clerk smiled and glanced up at the squad leader named Jonah. At this time, Jonah had already taken off his helmet, revealing an unexpectedly immature face, he should be eighteen or nineteen years old, and it was the time to look forward to heroes and be energetic.

"Ambitious!" The short and fat clerk handed Jonah the written name tag: "Hang this around the neck of your captive, so that everyone will know that it is your credit!" Well done, boy, I hope you live to see the day the war ends! โ€

Jonah didn't pay any attention to what the clerk said, and ran away happily when he saw the brand.

The clerk looked at the young and energetic back and muttered, "Drive the natural disaster out of the mainland? Twenty years ago, I thought the same thing, but the reality is often cruel. Will this war really end? โ€

With that, he slowly got up and walked out of the table, revealing a prosthetic leg made of a wooden stick, and limped away.

"Even if it is a defeat, it is much better than this endless war......"

The limping Humpty Dumpty let out a helpless sigh.
