Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Alien Army Blockades Phoenix

"Hurry up and get out of here?" Lin Jue was stunned.

"Hurry up and get out of here, what does that mean?"

Lin Jue could probably guess that this sentence was what Agnes wanted to tell herself, after all, only she had the ability to control the starry sky who she had ever seen. But what does that mean, and what does she mean by 'here'?

Lin Jue noticed that she was talking about fleeing, not leaving, that is, time was very urgent, and at the same time it was also dangerous, and only in this case, I am afraid that the word escape could be used.

Does 'here' mean Phoenix? But where can you go? And the snow is blocked, the ice floes are drifting, how do you leave?

Perhaps, "here" refers to the Eastern Continent?

In Lin Jue's heart, a long-hidden sense of unease instantly surged into his heart.

"When I saw this string of words, the heavy snow had not yet sealed off the city, and the word escape was already used at that time. So, from that time on, the witch-sama had already noticed that something was wrong. ”

"She's so powerful, what could it be that she can use to escape from the danger of these two words?"

At this moment, a soldier rushed into the governor's office in a panic.

"Report to the Governor, our patrol has spotted a large alien army ten miles away from Phoenix, and their intentions are unknown, and they are advancing towards Phoenix. ”

"What?" Hearing this, Lin Jue almost jumped up from his chair. The people of Orlante are just hiding on the coast to develop, but they have not offended any alien races. Especially under such a heavy snowfall, it can't be a jungle goblin who comes here, right?

This soldier was sent by Bi Fang, he had already received this news a step earlier, and at this moment he was organizing an army to garrison the city wall.

Led by this soldier, everyone came to the vicinity of the city walls.

The city wall was only built in the past few days, and thanks to Lin Jue's ability to think of a way to fill wooden boxes with gravel and clay as bricks, Phoenix City was able to erect this five-meter-high city wall in two months. Thanks to this city wall, in the face of the sudden attack of the alien army, Phoenix City will not be without resistance.

Five meters, not too tall, but definitely not short either. Lin Jue stood in front of the city tower, looking at the blue torrent that was slowly advancing in the distance, his brows furrowed.

"It's a jungle elf. Bi Fang frowned and said.

When this army came to the front of Phoenix City, when Lin Jue saw the appearance of this group of jungle goblins, he showed a strange look.

"This is the Jungle Elf? This ...... Isn't it the legendary novice monster, the goblin? This thing is ugly like this, the whole body is blue like this, there is no beauty at all, and it is actually related to the elves?"

"These are the jungle elves, they attacked us last time. The hammer gritted his teeth next to him and introduced it to everyone.

The army was very chaotic, and in Bi Fang's words, it was a rabble. Now as long as he had a heavy cavalry of five hundred in his hand, he was confident that he could easily defeat this army.

"But we don't have heavy cavalry, not one, don't we?" Lin Jue shrugged helplessly. The 3,000 soldiers brought before were all infantry armed with smoothbore guns, with only a hundred horses, and could not play the role of charging at all.

Moreover, Lin Jue knows very well that he can't take them lightly. Let's not mention the large number of people on the other side, even if the queue is mixed, it is unsightly. But until now, they hadn't figured out what the magic that could freeze people into ice sculptures was.

Obviously, Bi Fang was also worried about this, although he dared to boast about Haikou and lead five hundred horsemen to charge into battle, let alone say that there was no, even if there were, he would not really rush out so recklessly, so it was just talking.

What's more, a witch as strong as Agnes has hinted at dangerous signals, how dare Lin Jue despise this army?

The jungle goblins stopped when they were still about three hundred meters away from the city wall, and it is estimated that they did not expect that the city established by humans would actually have a city wall.

"Report to the Governor, Commander, because the queue of the other party is too chaotic to determine the specific number, it can only be determined that the number of the other side is about 10,000. ”

Their ranks were very noisy, discussing with each other, and it felt like they were not here to attack, but to buy vegetables at the vegetable market. If it weren't for the strange magic that could freeze people, Lin Jue, who couldn't stand it for a long time, would have asked Bi Fang to take the army out to take the initiative to attack.

The two sides confronted each other like this, and two hours later, the Orlante Kingdom army was ready, and when they were waiting for the battle on the side of Phoenix City, Lin Jue was stunned to find that they had actually retreated?

However, it didn't seem to have retreated far, only about three miles, and the blue torrent that kept shaking could be seen in the distance from the city wall.

Bi Fang frowned slightly, and analyzed: "It is estimated that they didn't expect us to build a city wall here, maybe they just temporarily withdrew their troops and built siege equipment." ”

The cavalry that had just been sent out had returned, and the cavalry did not stop after entering the city, running all the way to the city tower, and reported to Lin Jue and Bi Fang: "Report to the governor, commander, the other party has troops stationed in all directions three miles outside the city, and we are surrounded." ”

"Bi Fang should be right. Lin Jue thought so in his heart.

Lin Jue waved his hand and said, "Then let them surround them first." Anyway, the supplies in Phoenix City are not transported by land, so they can surround them for as long as they like. ”

After finishing speaking, Lin Jue left here. After all, in the snowy weather, with the warmth measures of this world, he felt frozen all over his body after standing on the high wall for so long.

Since the jungle goblins are currently only besieging and not attacking, that is to say, they still have time to prepare. The only thing to guard against now is the strange freezing magic.

"It's just that Fenix has been gone for so long, why hasn't she come back yet?" Regarding this matter, Lin Jue became more and more worried day by day.

"Nothing will happen, right?" Lin Jue, who had just come up with this idea, shook his head violently: "How can something happen? A phoenix that at least has the strength of a great magician, just went to deliver a message, even if it really encounters any danger, can't it run away if it can't be defeated?"

Lin Jue tried to make herself forget about it, to find a way to forget Phoenix, and to forget this cute but naughty girl. He had faith in her, and he believed that no one could hurt her.

Briefly forgot the little phoenix who didn't know the news thousands of miles away, briefly forgot the 10,000 troops surrounded outside the city, the army was only temporarily besieging the city, he still had time, maybe he could come up with a solution, perhaps, only this wall can be defended, when the snow melts, the snow season is over, and the enemy can be directly sent to retreat?

But now, Lin Jue must speed up and start a task to build a steam engine.

Jiang Quan, Iron Hammer, and an official who was in charge of registering Brandon's immigrants were all summoned by Lin Jue. and Gloria's sister, Gerhia, was forcibly dragged away by Lin Jue. Since the two sisters came back from Dawn City, they have been tired of being together every day and haven't seen each other all day, Lin Jue feels that they are too idle, especially Gerhiya.

Because Lin Jue had entered Gloria's dream, he also had a certain understanding of Gerhia. An outstanding mechanical genius, a weapon maker, took over the family business at the age of thirteen and independently opened a workshop that became famous as the Gear Wizard Workshop. According to the analysis of these memories, Lin Jue even doubted, was she really not a dwarf in her previous life?

As for such a mechanical talent, Lin Jue naturally would not let her hide in Phoenix City, after all, development requires everyone to contribute their own strength, even if it is the deputy head of an A-level mercenary group that he can't manage.
