Chapter 238: Waiting for the Rabbit?
According to Jace, the contestants of the Order side have been poor in recent years, and Martin is already the best performer.
So it was a matter of course that Martin was targeted.
"Put me in a corner where no one can save me first, no matter how well I perform, I shouldn't be able to catch up with the crucial battle. Moreover, in order to kill me, the biggest variable, a grand welcome ceremony is indispensable......" Thinking of this, the corners of Martin's mouth curled into a confident smile.
Looking at the long coastline a little blankly, Valrhona was a little stunned, the seaside here is full of cliffs, and she must find a way to go down from the forty-meter steep cliff to reach the rocky seaside: "How do we go next?
Martin pointed to the west, "About five miles to the west, there will be a seaside city, where we will spend the night." Of course, there may be a lot of guests who come to visit us in the middle of the night. If you don't want to be attacked, leaving me is the wisest thing to do. ”
Valrhona shook her head and let her blonde hair, which was brighter than the desert, spread out: "No, the more you give me more choices, the more willing I am to follow you." ”
"Oh?"
"Maybe it's a gut feeling, I think you're the future of our Wood Elves. ”
That's a bit exaggerated!
Martin didn't refute, just take it one step at a time.
Down-to-earth, instead of walking on the light, deep and shallow sand, the foot is much faster. Martin had another thing in mind:
This time, he gave up the mode of quick victory, of course, for treasure hunting (looking for the goddess), on the other hand, it was not the chaos camp that was dragging time.
Through the bloody competition, Chaos has killed many talents on the side of the order in advance. Most of the rest are the elites who have been preserved at a great cost by the deification of order.
Before the game, Martin had confirmed that among the fifty people, there were at least five knight captains and three generals, all of whom were mainstay-level existences in their respective camps.
If they're all hung up...... No, even if they weren't there, it would be convenient for the Chaos faction to launch an onslaught.
But the bait given by Chaos is the goddess of the lake.
It seems that I need to finish this competition as soon as possible.
Martin made up his mind in secret while looking at the huge three-dimensional map in his mental world with considerable distress.
The southern desert is so big, if you use it alone, the daylily will be cold in minutes. To walk through this desert mixed with desert areas, apart from the pegasus and griffons that no one has seen for a thousand years, the best means of transportation in this era is camels.
Or a bantam horse who is good at walking in the desert.
But at the moment when the southern city-states are completely destroyed, where to find camels or horses?
I'm afraid they all gave tooth sacrifices to the rat people?
Martin's head is big.
Another hour of walking. Compared to the aimless desert, except for the bad scenery of sand and sand, the scenery of sand on one side and the sea on the other side cheered up Valrhona's little girl.
It's a pity that all her spirit has been wiped out with the tragic mirror image in front of her.
"This ...... This is what you call the ruined city-state of Tyrell, the city of Bagonant?" the elven princess covered her mouth.
As far as the eye can see, there are golden ball-shaped vaults with pointed points that are very characteristic of the south. It's a pity that all the roofs have been turned into wreckage, scattered on a huge collapsed hillside.
It can be seen that this was supposed to be a city built on a cliff. In fact, most of the humans in this world like to build cities in this way. By building a tall wall on the land side, you can save a lot of money and defend a city with fewer troops.
Unfortunately, none of the founders of the city had considered black powder.
Now the rat-man buried a huge amount of black powder directly in the foundation of the city, and a big explosion blew up the foundation. As a result, these cities, which have stood on this land for less than two or three hundred years, are like castles of sand on the beach that have been washed away by huge waves, crumbling on the spot.
Without the city walls, tens of thousands of rat men swarmed in, easily slaughtering all the survivors who were lucky enough not to fall to death on the spot, crushed to death, or stabbed to death by debris.
The gatehouse that entered the town had collapsed, and the street in front of me had collapsed in half, and a three-story house was lying diagonally in the middle of the street, its deformed wooden frame still supporting the house in its approximate shape.
With tears in her eyes, the little princess covered her mouth and nose and kept scanning her gaze over the dried corpses hanging from the eaves of the street in the street.
Judging by the traces of the corpses, most of these people have been dead for more than a week. Overgrown by scavengers and other scavengers, all that remains are charred bones and jagged marks. Vultures rarely tear human bones and are estimated to be the work of the rat people.
But now there is not a single soldier from the Chaos faction in the entire city.
"What about the enemy?" the little princess tugged at Martin's arm, a little frightened.
"It's all going to set traps. Martin gestured blandly to the newly built altar on the side of the street. The altar was quite terrifying, and the entire altar was completely paved with corpses on a three-meter by three-meter platform. There was a lollipop-like shelf on the platform.
However, the circle on this shelf is a circle divided by golden spikes in eight equal parts, and the center of the metal circle is a large black skull relief.
"That's ......," the little princess's voice trembled.
Martin shrugged: "It's the altar of the Blood God of Fear." The meaning of the Chaos Maniac was like, 'We've built the altar, and the sacrifice is you.'" 'Let's go!'
Martin nonchalantly told a horrible truth that made Valrhona almost blow up: "Trap?
Martin pouted, "It's late, and we're more likely to be besieged in the wilderness." ”
Although what Martin said was the truth, Valrhona did recall the tragic death of her companion not long ago, but Martin was so indifferent, but it gave Valrhona confidence.
"Well, I'll leave it to you. ”
"Okay, you go there and wait for me, I'll walk around. I'll be back before nightfall. Martin pointed to a lighthouse in the center of the city. It stood abruptly on a cliff that had not yet collapsed, and it looked very strange with dilapidated houses collapsing and sliding down the slope everywhere.
Admittedly, it was the most conspicuous place in this ruined city. Whatever happened there, it could be seen anywhere in town.
"Okay. ”
Martin shook for two hours before finally going up to the lighthouse. Valrhona almost pounced and hugged Martin hard.
"Why is it so late, I...... I'm scared to death. ”
Martin smiled, and even through the armor, he could feel the trembling of the girl's delicate body.
