Section 20

On 20 April, Vic escorted Ander and Leon back to Seka City secretly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In order to prevent people from fleeing, Gray, who had already received the news half a day earlier, had already ordered martial law in Seka City.

Now in the city of Seka, there is no one else except the soldiers and nobles who have been left behind.

Gray's martial law, obviously, was aimed at the nobles who stayed behind.

Gray ignored the discontent of the nobles, and he didn't need to.

In fact, Vic lied to Colonel Demps, and they didn't find out who the Southern nobles had leaked the information.

The intelligence officers of the Gray Guard have only found a goblin merchant named Rocco collecting military dispatch information in the south!

And, according to the information provided by the Earl of Lockton's business adviser, His Excellency Fair, and the Earl's business adviser to the Earl of Borg, the Honourable Manlun, combined with the intelligence of the Guard's own investigation...

Gray had reason to believe that the goblin, named Rocco, had goblins the information he wanted.

Moreover, this goblin merchant is also the goblin prince who joined the orc camp.

However, before Gray could find out what was going on, the goblin merchant was poisoned and died during a banquet.

The merchants of Seka City, who held the banquet, also mysteriously disappeared.

And it was the entire family that disappeared, they disappeared without a trace, as if there had never been such a person, no matter how the Gray guard patrolled, he couldn't find any information.

It all happened the day before the departure of Colonel Temple's army.

That night, Gray, at Lowa's suggestion, ordered martial law at the naval barracks in the city of Secca, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

At the same time, he also secretly blocked all information channels outside the city of Seka.

This is to prevent them from exchanging information!

Even after the departure of the navy, Gray ordered the blockade of all access to the sea!

All of this is thanks to the cooperation of Baron Arthur Aven, without the cooperation of the lord of Seca, who has a great reputation in Seka City, Gray would not have been able to block the news.

And Vic, as the person in charge of the incident in the security department, was also sent out under such circumstances.

Colonel Demps was right, this time, they were just bait, in order to lure out traitors in the southern interior!

Originally, according to Gray's plan, Vic suddenly appeared in front of Colonel Demps and his men when the war had just begun, and then 'identified' the leaker!

However, Vic miscalculated the power of the sea...

Fortunately, he is helped by the pirate Bart.

In response to Vic's sudden attack, Leon and Ender can only resist desperately.

Because, if the two of them are lucky enough, they can still control the naval power of the entire city of Seca, and then kill Vic.

When the time comes, what they want to say is a matter of their words.

But fortunately, Colonel Demps is not stupid, he has already laid out a plan when he first summons Balandal!

In the entire naval force, there are only a few people who can let their side enter the orc encirclement unsuspectingly.

So, it's not very difficult to target these people!

He then asked Major Barlandel to secretly strengthen the security within the navy, requiring him to suppress the rebellion in a timely manner whenever and wherever he could.

When the Colonel decided to stay behind, he even secretly handed over the command of the fleet to Major Barandal!

Of course, if Major Barandel has a little dissenting heart, Colonel Demps also has a backhand!

At the last minute, when Colonel Demps handed over the command sword to Lieutenant Colonel Kelly, it was not really a transfer of command, it was just a test.

If Lieutenant Colonel Kelly had been given command and had not proceeded as Demps had planned after leaving the room, he would have been stabbed to death by the swords of the soldiers behind him.

But before he could get out of the room, Ander and Leon jumped out first!

...

...

With the lessons of the last time, Gray took this interrogation and the safety of the prisoners very seriously, and he even sent his own personal guards to guard the dungeons of Seka City in the guise of ordinary soldiers.

At the same time, he arranged for his chief military adviser, Sir Loire, to be personally interrogated.

Gray, on the other hand, has more important things to deal with, and in the past few days, the battle reports from all over the world have given him a headache!

Although he received the news, Gray did not arrange for his troops to rush to the aid of Balan, because the fall of Balan City was doomed, and there was no need to send more soldiers to their deaths.

Gray personally wrote to Viscount Petdy Borg, telling him to stick to the Byan Territory and explain the stakes!

He had to buy enough time for the next war.

For this, it is worth making a certain sacrifice!

As for the battle reports from other parts of the human kingdom, Gray also receives many of them every day.

Now, the war has been going on for more than a month!

The entire continent of Alan is also in turmoil due to the war between humans and orcs.

Archduke Milak receives orders from King Laubert to personally travel to the elven kingdom of the Byron Forest, where they expect to be able to reach some kind of peace agreement with this ancient kingdom.

In fact, the elven kingdom of the Babylon Forest has no intention of joining this war.

The other civilizations attached to the elven kingdom have seen the cruelty of those wars launched by human beings, and they love natural peace, so they are naturally very resistant to war.

For humans and orcs, the elves of the elven kingdom generally do not have a good feeling.

It's all because of the war that humans and orcs waged a thousand years ago.

Elves live a long lifespan, many of them have a lifespan of more than a thousand years, and these people have witnessed the wars waged against them by humans and orcs, their atrocities, and the destruction of forests.

In fact, the elven king took the initiative to back down from that war, and the elves didn't want war, they were tired of it thousands of years ago!

So, they took the initiative to retreat to what is now the Bylen Forest.

And the wars that have been fought for hundreds of years were written by orcs and humans.

The Great War caused the Elven Kingdom to lose its dominance on the continent of Alan, but their rulers didn't care about it.

This may be the reason for the longevity of life.

The elves of the upper echelons of the elven kings have survived for at least tens of thousands, and some have even survived for more than 100,000 years.

Over the course of their almost endless years, they have even witnessed the entire process of human and orc migration from the earliest nomadic diaspora to the establishment of a king.

In these seemingly never-ending years, the elves have lost interest in everything, and they show an almost boring numbness to everything.

These elves have lost interest in such things as powerful kingdoms and hegemony thousands of years ago.

Continental hegemon?

They have ruled the continent of Ailan for thousands of years.

Think about it, if a person has been high for thousands of years, doesn't he feel lonely and boring?

But young elves don't think so, they don't like a lifeless atmosphere, they also love adventure!

This is also the main reason for the rebellion of some elves hundreds of years ago.

And the compromise and concession of the upper elves is not a sign of weakness!

The strength of the elven kingdom can completely change the entire battle situation now!

King Laubert and Archduke Milak naturally knew this.

Moreover, the appearance of elven rangers on the Hoko Islands terrified King Laubert, although many intellects indicate that these elves are not those elves in the Byren Forest.

They are more like a whole new race, and these elves also call themselves dark elves, alluding to the dark side of the elves.
