Chapter 22: The Flames of War Will Burn
Roger laughed, and Caroline stared at him in annoyance, her gaze sweeping back and forth between him and the river, the threat of which was self-evident. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Roger's ridicule stopped abruptly, and he said with a flattering face: "The old lady is so majestic, she made the enemies frightened without firing a shot, who can stop such a great deterrent?"
Caroline patted Roger's head with satisfaction and said, "Good~"
Roger looked like he was enjoying ......
"You're off~" Alice mended the knife.
Roger waved his hand like a duck: "Go, go, play, what are the children's nonsense." ”
"I feel warm~" said something inexplicably, and Alice fell silent again.
The mother beaver looked at the rapidly sprouting trunk and said approvingly, "It's really warmer, and I don't think you need those winter clothes anymore." ”
By the time Roger walked up to the tree, there were already flower bones growing, and as far as the eye could see, the snow and ice melted and everything recovered, and the trees all over the forest began to slowly turn green.
Roger rubbed his palm, which was no longer so numb, and said, "I hope that after the snow melts, there will be more food in the forest, and there will be less food." ”
"Let's go, when we find Aslan, delicious food is indispensable. The beaver began to rush forward again.
The words were divided into two ends, and Orgrim was blocked by the rushing river, so he had no choice but to prepare to make a detour, when a wild wolf under his command stepped forward to report: "Chief, the snake has just sent news, there is a little movement in the west. ”
Orgrim weighed it and said, "I'll take a few people over to have a look, and the rest will find a way to cross the river and continue tracking down the humans." ”
The wolf nodded and stepped back.
A short time later, the White Witch Queen's car also crossed the river and stopped on the riverbank. Obviously, the road after that is not suitable for sledding.
The long-bearded dwarf in the car led the way ahead of the queen, and the two made their way to the edge of the cliff of the waterfall.
The White Witch looked at the lush woods of the waterfall and the river that had completely melted, and her face was covered with frost.
"It's so hot in here. The dwarf looked around, trying to take off the thick coat he was wearing.
Hearing this, the White Witch Queen stared at him coldly and said nothing.
The dwarf swallowed nervously, and put on the half-stripped cotton suit again: "Uh, that, I'm going to check the sleigh now......"
The White Witch Queen continued to scan the surrounding scenery as if it were early summer, but this did not last long, and Orgrim had already returned with her younger brother: "Your Majesty, we have found this traitor, who is gathering your enemies in the Trembling Forest. ”
The White Witch Queen looked back, and a wolf beside Orgrim shook its head and threw the enemy in its mouth into the clearing in front of her.
It was a fox, the wolf's teeth piercing the skin of its spine, and a few wisps of blood dripping down its fiery red hair.
"Ah, it's a pleasure for you to visit. The White Witch Queen turned back to the fox: "It seems that you are really 'loyal and reliable', what made you choose to betray." ”
The fox lowered his head slightly, and said to himself, "Forgive me, Your Majesty......"
"Don't waste time on these flatteries. The White Witch Queen interrupted impatiently.
The fox raised his head and said proudly, "It may not be rude, but I'm not talking to you. ”
The White Witch Queen was full of evil, and the scepter in her hand was pointed at the fox like a sharp sword: "Where is Aslan?"
The fox didn't say a word, and stood there silently.
The White Witch Queen chuckled, "Actually, you've already said it. It's back, at the Ancient Stone Table. And you, not only exposed its return, but also exposed the recruitment of troops for it in the Trembling Forest. ”
With these scattered information, the white witch can guess things well, and I have to say that there are no fools who can sit on the throne after all.
After all, the fox's face changed, it knew that it had taken advantage of its tongue but it had leaked its mouth, and that being caught would let the white witch know that she was gathering an army, but it couldn't figure out how the witch knew where Aslan was.
The White Witch Queen looked at the fox with satisfaction, thinking there, there were three pieces of information in her words, two of which were exposed by the fox, mixed with a guess, which made the fox suspicious, thinking that she had revealed some other flaws. And thinking about it shows that Aslan is indeed near the Ancient Stone Table!
"I'm glad I still see the Honest Fox in you, before you die. After saying this, the white witch scepter stabbed the fox with the tip of the scepter in her hand, and the fox panicked and tried to jump up to dodge, but in vain.
Starting from the part that was stabbed by the witch's scepter, a stream of blue-black spread over the fox's body, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a blue-black fox ice sculpture.
The White Witch Queen turned to Orgrim: "Hurry up and gather my army." If this is a war that Aslan yearns for, then we make this war a reality. ”
After Orgrim took the order, the White Witch Queen stood silently, a butterfly flew by, she waved her scepter, the butterfly turned into an ice sculpture and fell to the grass, she looked at the butterfly coldly, turned and got into the sleigh.
"Your Majesty, where are we going now?" the dwarf asked, pulling the reins.
The White Witch Queen's tone was cold: "Return." ”
Back at the castle in the middle of the lake, countless strange species have gathered on the frozen surface of the lake.
The White Witch Queen got out of the car, and everyone saluted, and she motioned to everyone to get up in satisfaction.
A tall and sturdy black-haired minotaur stepped forward and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, the army has gathered more than 60,000 people, and it is estimated that it will be full of 200,000 people in two days. ”
This is not a small number, although the population of the Kingdom of Narnia is quite large, but there are not many races that can fight well, most of them are humanoids or carnivores, which are creatures at the top of the food chain.
The minotaur continued: "Among them there are two thousand giants, fifteen thousand minotaur warriors, ten thousand dwarves, twenty thousand orcs, and twenty thousand beasts. ”
The witch nodded with satisfaction: "Order, the leaders of each clan organize their subordinates, and when the warriors gather, they will immediately pull out, and the troops will press the contract grassland." ”
"Yes. ”
"Elf, lead five thousand men to establish an outpost at the junction of the Trembling Forest and the Grassland, and keep an eye on the movements of the Aslan army. And choose a suitable location for camping, I want the army to rest and recuperate as soon as it is in place. ”
"Yes, Her Royal Highness. ”
The White Witch Queen said goodbye and turned to enter the castle. Leaning alone on the chair in the study, she pulled out a delicate heart-shaped small box hanging around her neck, pushed open the lid, and a burst of elegant and beautiful music slowly came out of the box, and the witch rubbed the silver lid affectionately, and was silent for a long time.
