Chapter Seventy-Eight: Night Attack on the Village
On the evening of the fourth day after the capture of Janora, outside the nameless village in the valley, a full two platoons of soldiers and a squad of battle mages directly under the regiment were ready for battle. Led not only by Huang Zheng and Ji Yijun, but also by Kalanda and Glade, against the mysterious puppeteers, the Chinese concentrated their most powerful forces in the Arano region.
They don't know if the puppeteer went to the village just to collect a bounty or was hired by them, so they had to stop him before they could leave. After receiving the information of Janora's confession, they traveled day and night, and it took them more than three days to get here, eliminating two groups of patrolling guards along the way.
The battle plan had already been filed several times before it came out, and now, according to the actual situation, Huang Zheng is ready to implement the No. 2 plan. He announced that the operation was about to begin, and that he would try to penetrate the enemy before the other side discovered that the patrolling soldiers were missing.
In the dim darkness of the night, four horses and seven people approached the entrance of the village.
The guard at the gate of the village, carrying an oil lamp in his hand, shone it in this direction, and found that the man who was riding on the horse was an acquaintance, Janora.
The guard warily drew his sword and asked Haruka, "Janora, why did you come back after just a few days of leaving?
Janora laughed, as if she had gained some bargain, and waved everyone to dismount. Three of them were armed guards, and three other girls were escorted by each of them.
"On the way, I came across a caravan of slaves, and I bought a few good goods in it. Steward Hall mentioned this to me, and when I had a female slave, I hurried back. As she spoke, Janora glanced lightly at the girls beside her.
One of the girls in front glared at him angrily.
In fact, there was nervousness in Janora's eyes, and the girl's angry eyes were too straightforward, and the warrior behind her was a bearded woman. However, these flaws were concealed by just the right amount of sky.
The guards approached Doris, who was playing the role of a slave girl, and tried to lift her chin with their hands. But Jia Nuo stretched his hand and grabbed him, "Brother, that little girl is very strong, she can bite, after all, she is the one in charge, in case of trouble, everyone is not good-looking." ”
"Hmph. The guards and merchants had always been well-watered and did not interfere with the river, but when they were stopped by Janora, he was not very strong, but he leaned forward with the oil lamp, bowed down and glanced at Doris's face, "Yo, it's good." No wonder you want to run back yourself. ”
He took a picture of the other two slave girls, both of whom were equally picturesque, and although their faces were dirty, they were certainly no worse than the previous one. With such a good look, there must be no advantage for him, "Janora, your luck is okay." You actually picked three of them. But did the steward say he needs a slave girl now?"
"Why not? He's not recruiting all sorts of skilled mages and warriors. You know, it's up to women to keep men. ”
The guards were suspicious, but he always refused to sell them to the beautiful slave girl in charge, so he waved his hand and let him go.
The group of seven men put the horses in the stables and led them up the hillside where the stewards lived.
Karanda, dressed as a guard, with a beard and a helmet, said: "Behave well, and then be obedient, you will save your life, and if everything goes well, it is not impossible for you to recover some business losses." ”
"Of course, of course. Janora replied attentively and carefully.
"Be professional, look ahead. It was Ji Yijun who said this, and because he could not reveal his identity as a Chinese, he specially wore a helmet with a brim and hid his eyes in the shadows.
On the other side, Mainno showed his face generously and walked in front, "There is another level ahead, and this level is estimated to be as easy to fool as the front." ”
"Glade, you strike first in a moment, and if you fail to control them, we'll break through. Kalanda said.
A slave girl in front of her smiled, clearly the appearance of Milda in the distant Black Mountain, but her hair color was not silver-white but dark gray. It's like the twin sisters of the book spirit girl. Originally, the magic incarnation of the book spirit could be male or female, but Glade and Milda each chose a psychological gender. But when necessary, they could have chosen to appear in another form, and now, her voice was as crisp as a real girl, "Don't worry, the magic of the Spirit Tower is not so easy to resist. ”
"If the assault begins, Crete takes care of Doris. Go to the rear. Kalanda added.
"Got it, I'll protect her. "Another slave girl was pretended to be Crete, and his face was already beautiful, as long as he covered his Adam's apple with clothes, he didn't need to dress up much, he could pretend to be a girl.
"Sister Kalanda, don't worry, I won't drag you down. Doris patted her waist, where there was an airsoft gun. As the backbone of the women's union, she was already trained in the military. Now with the powerful weapons of the Chinese, she has enough confidence in her heart. Doris spent a lot of effort with Kalanda in order to be able to participate in this operation, and in the end the reason she used to convince the other party was that she was the only one who was the real girl, and if the other party could observe closely, or use detection magic, she was the only one who could not show any flaws, and the more slaves they needed, the more guards they needed, and the more one she had, the reason they would have to go for another warrior. However, she herself is not sure what the real reason is, maybe to participate in the revenge for Rosa, or just to fight with Crete?
As they approached the level, everyone kept their mouths shut, except for Janora who was at the front. The guards outside the steward's quarters looked more elite and cautious than those at the door.
In the face of Janora's same rhetoric, the lead guard said, "You wait here, and I will report before I can let you in." ”
"Steward Hall said that I can go directly to him when I bring good goods. Janora said with some displeasure.
"I haven't heard anything like that. The guard said coldly, "Wait." ”
With that, the guards went to report. But Kalanda obviously wouldn't let him go like that, and she gave Glade a look. The girl stepped out of the crowd and said, "Wait a minute. ”
The sound of her voice drew all the guards to look at her. Even the leader of the guards glanced back at her.
"Look at what is in my eyes. With these words, a faint swirl of magic appeared in her eyes.
All the guards were attracted by the strange vortex, and then stood there, their faces showing very different expressions, some happy, some confused, some painful, some dazed.
Spirit Tower's Control Spell: Soul Vortex.
The two guards on the towers on the left and right saw that the situation was wrong and wanted to sound the alarm, but they were shot by Ji Yijun and Ma Renor at the same time. The sound of the airsoft guns was so quiet that they were all shot in the head and fell silently.
Kalanda looked left and right, as if he hadn't alarmed the people in the house above, pulled out the big sword behind his back, and said, "Let's go." ”
