Chapter 357: Yes...... It's the big guy!
Our reinforcements?Lias looked at each other in surprise.
"Yes, the reinforcements that were supposed to come with us, you said that many of the troops sent from the imperial capital would walk separately, but we haven't seen them until the south, have you forgotten?" Lucia reminded.
The king's letter of dispatch was read by the two of them.
"How could it be forgotten. Lias said, or the things that have been bothering her all this time, this is also counted.
"Where have they been, why haven't they been here before. Lias said with some dissatisfaction that now that the matter of Sun-By-Day City had been half settled, they had fortunately come over after the flood waters had receded.
"I don't know yet, the news has already reached the Sun-Catching City Wizards Association, you can ask. Lucia only came to report the specific news, and she had to ask for the specific news separately.
Lias hurriedly stood up.
"Cam, let's go. Calling Wang Chu, who was in a daze, the three of them went towards the place of the headquarters.
The flood waters have receded quite a bit, and at this rate, the camp will be back in the city in two days, so since yesterday the command has asked everyone to pack their belongings so that they can go back at any time.
A few soldiers were still waiting behind the door, and when they saw Lias coming, they hurriedly saluted.
Now he and Lias are holding the title of heroes who save Sunrise City, and their prestige among the military and civilians is very high...... I saw the three of them coming over and hurriedly bowed in greeting.
"General Lias. ”
"Is Lord Theron here?" Lias nodded back.
"It's all there, and the ** master and the high priest are also in it. The two soldiers at the head said, hurriedly leading the way.
The headquarters is an old fortress built back then, which was used during the months of heavy rain, when it rained and the pursuit was just not to leak the rain, and simply covered the dilapidated parts of the walls with cloth paintings.
Now that they are about to move out, most of the canvas and maps have been removed, revealing that the dilapidated stone walls are still covered with moss and weeds, and mushrooms have grown in the water-permeable areas.
The sun has come out these two days, and wild mushrooms often grow in those dark corners.
"Oh, why didn't General Lias rest in the tent. Seeing Lias Theron walking in the door, she stepped forward to greet her with an excited expression.
Behind him were the beautiful priest and a magician.
There is nothing special to do these days, as long as you maintain discipline every day and pack your things, the generals from all over the place do not need to have meetings, and many people have already gone to other camps on the hill to gather the people over there.
"It's just so that you're here, and I'm going to gather all the camp leaders and make arrangements for my return to the city in the next few days, and you'll come and see how to arrange it for me......," Theron said frankly, like someone who humbly asked.
Of course, in Wang Chu's opinion, this is also his method of deliberately elevating Lias's status.
The city of the sun is his territory, and no one can command it as smoothly as he commands, so he should listen to all these words.
"Come, General Lias, I'm going to let some of them go and see what's going on on the other side of the river, and if it's confirmed that it's safe for two days before we're ready to go back to the city, what do you think?" he said, leading the three of them to the sand table on the table, and then pointing to the terrain above.
"You can arrange this matter, after all, you are the city lord here. Lias didn't listen to the previous hype, she came here for other purposes.
"I came here for something else, I heard that the Magicians Association has received news of reinforcements from the Imperial Capital. Lias asked.
"Oh...... Right. Yes, this is what we just received today, I thought you already knew, and because of the rain before, the letter eagle could not be released...... ** division, you report the news to the general. Theron had a look on his face as if he had suddenly remembered, and then instructed the magician behind him.
This is an old magician who has always been by Theron's side, he looks like he is in his sixties and seventies, and he is considered the oldest among the magicians he has seen, but because his ability is generally the subordinate of the archmage Antun who fought with him before, he became the personal magician of the Lord of Theron during the time when the other party was taken to the southern wilderness.
Watching the old mage touch the pocket in his robe.
frowned.
"I copied a copy before, why haven't I seen it...... They relied on magic props to send messages, so I'd better dictate them. The old magician looked a little wooden, making both Theron and Rias look frowning.
No wonder you want to become a subordinate of your juniors at such an old age.
"It was sent by the Imperial Archbishop Benedictas, saying that they would soon arrive in Sulma City, and that they would be able to reach the south in about three or four days after rectification, and that they had been staying in the northern city for a long time because they were blocked by the flood, but fortunately the rain had stopped in the past few days, and then they asked about what was happening here......" The old magician said one by one.
Wang Chu listened carefully for a long time before he roughly understood a little bit of the news.
The reinforcements that came after Lias were also hindered by the floods, so they stopped in other cities for a while.
These guys are really lazy, and they stop when they encounter the slightest thing.
But then again, when there was a flood in the first place, if it wasn't for the fish, people might have been delayed for a long time, not to mention that the water might have risen after the rain.
It was the people they came who made Wang Chu unexpected...... It turned out to be Archbishop Benedictas.
"What did you say, Archbishop Benedictas?" replied not only Lias, but also Theron.
"Why didn't you just say it earlier? Theron asked eagerly.
"Yes...... But I've already said it, I said that reinforcements from the imperial capital will arrive in a few days, and you said that reinforcements will definitely come, nothing wrong. The old magician modeled a tone similar to Theron's.
"The key point is not here, ** division. It's good that we knew it early. Theron breathed a sigh of relief and didn't blame the other party.
"Archbishop Benedictas, the body of the Holy Light, I didn't expect him to come in person this time. ”
Wang Chu looked at the intoxicated expressions of several people, especially the expression of the female pastor who was almost a fan girl.
Does that old guy have such a big reputation?
When I was in the imperial capital before, I had met once with the help of the crow's eyes that night, but that time it was in the cathedral, and the other party was talking to the paladin family who had a little holiday with Lias.
"We need to be ready for that. ”
"Well, it must be done. Theron replied in the affirmative.
Is that obscene old man with a high hat so famous, compared to the treatment he was not at all the same when he came.
"Is Archbishop Benedictas famous?" asked Lucia whispering, leaning closer to Lias.
Lias glared at her.
"He is the supreme priest of the Asta Empire, the embodiment of the Light. 2k reading network
