Section 55 The flood swept in
At a quarter past five o'clock in the morning, when people were most sleepy, the rain suddenly became heavier, and except for the sound of the rain falling to the ground, the whole barracks seemed extremely quiet, and no one else could be found outside the tent except for the soldiers on patrol.

Gray, dressed in a bright knight's armor and neatly dressed, sat in front of the main desk of his main tent, holding a military history book in his hand, and the cold wind occasionally blew into the camp, making the burning pot fire sway back and forth.
Suddenly, the curtain of the tent was lifted, and a gust of cold wind poured into the tent, almost extinguishing the already not very vigorous pot fire, and Gray looked up to see that it was Thor!
"Why? Isn't that welcome? I'm so busy with your plans that I don't even have time to rest!" Thor smiled, shook the water stains on his leather armor, then picked up a few pieces of dry wood next to him, threw them into the fire, and suddenly looked up again and said, "That's right! This is not your plan, it is the arrangement of some nobleman, haha!"
Gray put down the book in his hand, he was not in the mood to read at all, he was just passing the time, he couldn't even remember what he had just read.
"What's the matter?
Seeing Thor, Gray's originally somewhat annoyed mood became a lot better, how to say that this guy should be half of Gray's friend.
"The embankment has been built by the time I leave, and if you count the time, you should gather enough water to open the floodgates by now!" Thor fiddled with the firewood in the iron basin, trying to make the fire burn more vigorously so that he could dry his wet clothes.
"Huh" A large stream of cold wind poured into the big tent at this time, but the door curtain was lifted again, the person who came was petite, and the well-fitting leather armor was worn on her body to look more heroic, and this perfect figure could completely make people ignore the hideous scars on the right side of the face.
After staying in the barracks arranged by Lunken for a while, Rena actually fell asleep, but it didn't take long for her to wake up from nightmares, and a series of recent events made this girl feel very stressed!
"Sir Grey, I'm very sorry!" a guard came in from behind, his head bowed to the side and apologized! The guard didn't know Rena's depth, but the one who could live in a tent alone was definitely higher than his own status, so he didn't dare to stop Rena.
Gray waved his hand, "Alright, you go down first!" The guard was relieved to hear this, and hurriedly bowed to leave.
As soon as Rena walked into the tent, she stared curiously at a magic wand that Thor had inserted in his waist, because a blue magic gem on this staff was flowing with a little light, and women could not refuse the temptation of the gem!
"Rena, this is Thor, the Earl's chief magic advisor!" Gray saw that Rena seemed to be very interested in Thor, so he took the initiative to introduce him, and then he turned to Thor and said, "This is Miss Rena, I think you should know!"
After Gray introduced the two, they saluted each other.
After that, the atmosphere in the big tent was a little awkward, and the three of them couldn't find a topic, but the three of them didn't necessarily have to talk about something, they all sat quietly, as if they were waiting for something.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and then a muddy soldier walked into the tent, "Sir Grey, the watchtower reports that something seems to be moving in the direction of the Ani River!"
Gray stood up as soon as he heard this, and the knight's armor on his body rattled, "Quick! Send scouts to scout along the road, remember! Be careful, don't rush!"
When Rena, who was sitting at the bottom, heard the news, her heart tightened and she was stunned on the spot.
"Miss Rena, come out with me!" Gray's shout brought Rena to her senses, but there was still a bit of confusion in her eyes.
It was still pitch black outside, and the rain didn't stop coming, and Gray walked steadily, leading Thor and Rena to a tower at the highest point in the camp.
It was still pitch black in the distance, and nothing could be seen, but with the occasional lightning and thunder, a huge streamer of light could indeed be seen flowing slowly on the side of the Aini River line, and it also made a dull sound.
It's a flood!
The dull sound of running water, and the magnificence of the faint waves of water under the occasional glow of thunder, any force that would turn to dust under this vast force of nature, suddenly felt as small as grit in the dirt beneath his feet.
Gray's left hand gripped the hilt of the saber at his waist in an instinctive awe.
Thor didn't care, maybe he had seen too much.
Rena's whole body suddenly went limp, and if Gray hadn't grabbed her arm, she would have fallen to the ground, her face pressed against the knight's armor on Gray's shoulder.
The cold breath on the knight's armor immediately woke up to Rena, and she quickly straightened up, her arm broke free of Gray's palm, glanced at Gray and Thor, and then turned away from the tower, walking step by step towards the tent where she had just rested.
From the beginning to the present, Rena has not said a word.
"This woman should be quite beautiful, the death of the few scars on her face is obvious, obviously not the damage caused by an ordinary weapon, but it can still be recovered, how about it? Do you want to restore her appearance?" Thor had a faint smile on his face.
Gray glanced at Thor lightly, and then told everything that happened to Rena like a story, the story was very short, it didn't take long to finish, and Thor never mentioned it again after hearing it.
On July 6, 1211 in the continental calendar, at about 5 o'clock in the morning, the Earl of Lockton and the Viscount of Donna fought a decisive battle on the Ini River, beginning with a fire and ending with a flood.
This battle is still quite well-known to the human kingdom on the Alan continent, after all, the two sides mobilized nearly 50,000 people to fight, as the victor, the name of Count Lockton spread among the upper class of the human kingdom for a while.
At the same time, as the deputy of the Earl of Lockton, Gray's position was finally consolidated in the Herion domain, after all, the nobles knew the process of this war best.
However, the heat of this war did not last long, and on July 20, the kingdom of men, King Laubert's deputy, the prime minister of the court, the hand of the king, Duke Ella, suddenly died.
This is a big deal, the Duke of Ella is full name Sheen Ella, his family has ruled the Hoko Islands for generations, and he himself is the mentor of Grand Duke Rick Mikla and King Laubert of the West, and his eldest daughter is the wife of Grand Duke Punk De Rooney, Lord of the South.
The sudden death of such a big man is really like an earthquake in the upper class of the human kingdom. Without this old man's mediation among various forces, it would be difficult for the various principalities of mankind to achieve peace with each other.
Even on the day of the death of the Grand Duke of Ella, the royal capital of Suke City was immediately put under martial law, and the funeral of the Grand Duke of Ella was even faster than anyone could react.
Just as the kingdom of humanity was grieving for the Grand Duke of Ella, their mortal enemies, the orc tribe, there was a war, no one remembers this war, but history will.
The new chief of the Silver Axe Clan, Shikan Silveraxe, waged a war against the Caged Lion Clan, and in just ten days, he completely defeated it, allowing his tribe to merge into the Silver Axe Clan.
Of course, the blitzkrieg of the Silver Axe tribe immediately caused dissatisfaction among the surrounding tribes, but then after the Silver Axe Chief distributed all the looted supplies, the tribes immediately shut up.
