Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Winter of Layton (II)

The next day, the traversers got up early in the morning, dug out the snow outside the warehouse, and buried half a snow deer that had been buried yesterday and was as frozen as a stone, roasted until it was six or seven minutes ripe, and then hurriedly ate it, and they set out on the journey again.

Coincidentally, the village they landed in this time happened to be in the game map, and compared to the game map, they could easily determine their location accurately, and the next thing to do was to reach the main road as soon as possible.

When you reach the main road, you will follow the main road in the direction of Thrace, and sooner or later you will be able to meet the Thracian army.

It's simple and unpretentious, and it works very well.

Two days later, they met the Thracian army.

Next to the ruins of a burning village.

Inside the village, the corpses lay on the ground, and the wounds on their bodies were almost fatal, and it could be seen that the slaughterer was very efficient and did not waste time at all.

There were six people, four men and two women, hanging from a tree at the entrance of the village. The four men were a middle-aged man, a half-grown teenager, and two young boys, both middle-aged women. All six of them were stripped naked, and their bodies were all messed up with scars cut by sharp blades, and they died horribly dead.

【Paradise City Keeper (Volibel): What's going on?Why did the Thracian army kill all the people in this village?Whoever they ruled?】

[Akinayama old driver (Harley): I don't know what they think, I just know that I'm very hot now, and I can't be angry if I don't cut a few people!]

[Poisoned Milk Harmony (Sudton): Don't worry, there is always a chance to fight, so let's observe again. It's a bit weird...... If they killed the whole village, why did they torture and kill those six people and hang them at the entrance of the village?

[Panda (Panda): To know why, just grab someone and ask if you can't!]

So they crept into the barracks next to the village and easily captured a soldier.

The number of this force is not large, and the total number is just over 200 points. Of course, there will not be any masters in this number of troops, they really come and go as they want, and they can easily come and go.

The soldier was still very strong at first, and when Volibel asked him, "Why do you want to kill the people of this village?", he said disdainfully, "Whoever dares to stop my Thracian army will all be crushed by eggs and stones, and you will be no exception."

So Harley found a stone and smashed his right hand with one stone.

Harley's temper was quite hot, and if it weren't for his companions, he would have rushed into the barracks and started a killing spree. If this guy cooperates honestly, he is still so arrogant when he is a prisoner, he naturally can't help but teach this bastard a lesson and teach the other party "why are flowers so red".

Because of the mouth covered, the soldier couldn't scream. I just widened my eyes in pain and trembled.

Panda looked at the cold-proof bracelet on his right wrist, couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and said to Serton, "Help him heal, save Harley from smashing his other hand." ”

As a healing monk, Thurton used a spell on the soldier, and his smashed hand was quickly restored to its original state.

"My mana is probably enough to use this spell more than ten times. Sulton was a little unhappy, "But don't let me waste my mana in a place like this!

She turned her head to look at the soldier: "You too, can't you cooperate?" Turning over and over again, smashing and smashing, curing and smashing, you don't bother, I'm annoying!"

In fact, she really told the truth, and there was no threat at all, but looking at the bloody stone on Harley's hand, and looking at the complaining look on her face, the soldier's will collapsed.

So he honestly explained everything.

The Thracian war against the kingdom of Layton is slightly different from the game's plot.

According to the "history" of the game, the kingdom of Leighton was not able to get any news in advance, and the Thracian army was devastated all the way, most of the towns and villages were in despair, and almost when the news reached Leighton City, the vanguard of the Thracian army arrived less than a day away from Leighton City.

But this time, for some reason, Layton got some news. Although the Thracian army still relied on the pre-arranged internal response and successfully took the most important passes, it encountered a lot of resistance along the way. Many nobles, knights, and even adventurers stood up against the Thracian army, causing them to suffer a lot of losses.

In this case, the commander of the Thracian army, His Majesty King Richard of Thrace, issued an order to "brutally strike at all resistance."

According to his orders, anyone who dared to resist the Thracian army was to be pursued, and not only themselves were to die, but also their families were to be brutally executed and shown to the public, and if it was a lord, the entire territory was to be slaughtered.

"Damn, do you give such orders?" Harley's eyes widened, "You carry out this kind of order too?"

"For the sake of Thracian greatness, a little killing is justified!" replied the soldier with confidence.

Without saying a word, Harley picked up a stone and smashed it on his head.

This time, even Sutton couldn't save him.

Volibel let go of his hand, and let the soldier's corpse fall to the ground, losing its vitality from its owner, and the cold bracelet gradually lost its effectiveness, and the corpse soon froze as hard as a stone—similar to the villagers they had killed not long ago.

"We should do something. Volibel said to the panda.

The panda nodded, looking at the others.

"Yes!" Harley smiled, "My forty-meter-long knife is waiting to be opened!"

"I want to object, but judging by the way you look, it's useless to object. Sutton sighed, "The minority obeys the majority, say, what are you going to do?"

Panda thought for a moment and said, "Although we can kill a lot of soldiers, just killing soldiers can't really solve the problem. The key to solving the problem is to eliminate the people who created it. ”

"You mean - let's kill King Richard?" Harley's eyes widened with excitement.

Assassinating a king is more exciting than a cannon on earth!

The panda smiled: "It's almost, anyway, there are so many people with the surname Thrace in this world, there is no more of him, and no less of him, isn't it?"

Volibel nodded: "Of course!"

"Then let's decide, take another prisoner, ask where the Thracian army is, and then set out to assassinate Richard. The panda said, "Be fast." After all, every day we delay could add one more village to be slaughtered, and one more family member of the resistance to be tortured and killed. ”

Everyone nodded, and soon, their figures disappeared into the almost non-stop wind and snow of the winter in the Leighton Kingdom.
