Chapter 105: Mountain Rain is Coming
Imperial Frontier, Esette Base Camp.
Dressed in gray mage robes, Shiloh walked briskly along the cobblestone riverbank, frowning at the tingling sensation that came from under his feet from time to time.
The Ganges River is the natural border that separates the Titan Empire from the Esit Empire, as well as the central and southern part of the Starfall Continent.
The width of the Ganges River is nearly six thousand meters, and in order not to reveal his identity, Shiloh chose to take a passenger boat to and fro, and it took nearly an hour to reach the opposite bank.
The banks of the river are covered with lush bushes, and many berries have fallen from the ground that have begun to rot. A dark forest unfolded before the magician's eyes, revealing an air of depression and ruin.
Although it was still afternoon, the sky was terribly overcast, and dark clouds were gradually gathering overhead from all directions.
"Boom~", a muffled thunder suddenly sounded in the dull sky, and suddenly an orange lightning pierced the sky, and the magician's mood began to be depressed.
The surrounding landscape began to be covered with a faint mist, signaling an impending storm.
Shiloh was now at the edge of the forest, a curvy path that stretched deep into the forest. Seeing this, he sighed, and gradually condensed the magic power like substance in his hand. A few seconds later, a dark blue magic staff took shape in his hand, and he thumped it into the ground and began to step into the forest.
Raindrops the size of beans began to fall from the sky, pounding the oppressive atmosphere of the land like a rapid drumbeat, and the muddy woodland made the march much more difficult.
Shiloh blessed himself with a small shield, and a green halo floated on the surface of his body, so that the mage's robes would not get wet from the rain. He looked down at his mud-stained boots with a helpless expression.
After a long time, the torrential rain continued to fall, and the raging winds caused the branches of the trees to be blown to the other side.
Shiloh walked briskly through the forest, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and a faint light not far away signaled that he was about to walk out of the forest.
——
The torrential rain was still pouring down on the earth, making a crackling splash on the fertile land in the center. At the end of the forest is the stronghold of the Essit Legion, located on a green plateau.
"Someone is approaching the barracks, go and report to Lord Victor!" a soldier in captain's attire shouted to several ordinary soldiers behind him.
"What?!" The surrounding soldiers immediately gathered at the gate of the camp and looked at the bushes outside the camp.
"Toby, why are you still stunned about this! Go and report to the General!" the captain roared impatiently.
When a young soldier heard this, he hurried towards the camp, while the rest of the group continued to look down at the gray figure who was walking towards the camp gate.
"This guy is so bold, he must be a spy sent by the Titans!" one soldier roared, but with a hint of horror in his tone.
"What should we do now?" several soldiers asked in unison.
The captain's eyes were very resolute, and he was the soldier who had saved Victor's life in a life-and-death situation.
The captain's bearded face was a little blue from the cold, and he squinted slightly at the uninvited guests in the distance, and his heart was struggling fiercely.
"Although General Victor has mentioned that there will be distinguished guests, he does not rule out the possibility that the visitor will not be good. "The captain is responsible for guarding the main gate of the camp, and he doesn't dare to be careless.
After a few seconds, he finally gritted his teeth and roared angrily: "No matter who he is, he is in a special period now, and no one is allowed to approach the camp without permission!"
As soon as the soldier next to him heard this, he immediately drew his bow and wound it, aiming at the gray figure below, ready for battle.
As soon as the words of "!! arrow" fell, there was a sound of bows and arrows breaking through the air.
The captain's roar reached Shiloh's ears, and he looked up,
Suddenly, he found that there were more than a dozen bows and arrows in the air, and they were galloping towards his position!
Shiloh smiled disdainfully and waved his right hand lightly—a miniature tornado of magical power flew into the air in an instant. As soon as the menacing bow and arrow hit the surface of the tornado, it was blown to pieces and fell into the dirt.
"How is it possible, there is no harm in the slightest?!" said the captain in surprise, the pouring rain blurred the scenery in the distance. However, the other side did not react with the screams of pain that the soldiers had expected. On the contrary, it was not affected by the attack at all, and still maintained its original speed until it walked towards the camp gate.
The soldiers then fired several more waves of bows and arrows, and the result was the same. "What the hell, is this guy really human?" a sharp-eyed soldier finally saw the strange scene - dozens of bows and arrows flew into the air, as if they were suddenly hit by an invisible force, which completely neutralized the power, and fell limply to the ground.
Shiloh had already walked to the gate of the camp at this moment and stopped, he frowned slightly, and released a sound amplification technique.
"Ahem. The mage's low cough startled the soldiers at the camp gate, and before he could speak, the rain eased unconsciously.
"Stop!!" Victor's red figure sprang through the rain, knowing that this was a big problem.
He finally invited Shiloh to the camp by using Owen as a hostage, who knew that because of his own negligence, this would happen!
"Damn it!" Victor couldn't calm down anymore and cursed loudly.
The soldier who was in full of anger was taken aback when he heard the general's voice, and immediately stopped what he was doing.
Victor walked briskly to the camp gate, looking extremely ugly. Because he knows that the Fisdal family has always had revenge, and if he has a grudge against Shiloh, I'm afraid that the future will not be easy!
He walked past the soldiers guarding the camp gate and walked straight to the camp gate.
Shiloh squinted slightly, looking at the majestic figure walking towards him, and he was very impressed by the dark red robe.
Victor strode over to the magician and stopped, then straightened up.
The rain had completely stopped, the air was filled with the freshness of the earth, and the things around were still shrouded in a dead silence, without the slightest vitality of life.
Esset's soldiers became overwhelmed for a moment, and the sudden appearance of the general made them dare not continue to act rashly, and they all put away their weapons and stood respectfully aside.
"Lord Shiloh, you're here. Victor bowed humbly to the other party and said, "Although I have been in the north for many years and know little about the Titan Empire, I have long admired the prestige of the Prime Minister, and today I am finally fortunate to be able to see it." ”
