Chapter 101: Colonel Shelton
After figuring out the ins and outs of the harpy's night attack on Dun Lun, Areley had the rock monsters transport them back to the camp for temporary imprisonment, and then brought in miner goblins to repair the houses of the city's residents.
In the makeshift office of the windmill, Kara is dressed in rain and dew, reporting the results of the search for the banshee's lair:
"The harpy's lair has indeed been destroyed, more than twenty standard long swords are inserted in front of the cave, and a large amount of fishy egg whites and yolks are flowing on the ground, the scene is quite miserable, and the possibility of bitter meat is basically ruled out. ”
Charlene, who had changed into formal clothes, then pushed the door in, handed over a list that had just been counted, and said with a gloomy expression:
"The Harpy's invasion killed sixty-seven people, forty of whom were children. ”
"Give the families of each victim five thousand soles for the funeral expenses, after all, it is our dereliction of duty. ”
The black-haired knight shook his head, put away the death list, stood up and walked to the side window inlaid with transparent glass, looked at the bright sky outside, and said with some heaviness:
"Only sixty-seven people died this time because we all happened to be here, and there will never be only one such thing, if we don't get to grips with a regular army as soon as possible, more people will die next time. ”
“......”
Bruno and Carla glanced at each other, both standing in silence with their hands down.
"At the same time, the fact that the Celts were able to incite rebellion on our turf is also related to our recent negligence. I think they'll incite the rest of the monsters to rebel if they have the chance. ”
After reflecting on himself for a while, Yalei suddenly looked nervous, walked to the newly hung map on the wall, and said in a hurry:
"If I were them, I would choose salamanders and poison ivy mushrooms to instigate, among them. Poison ivy, which we humans have been fighting for, must be the main target. ”
"Shall we inform them in advance to get ready?" Bruno looked up suddenly, looking at him with some eagerness.
"No, you and I have another mission. ”
The black-haired knight waved his hand and looked at Charlene:
"Honey, take those three fools and inform the lizards and poison ivy as fast as you can. Remember, the water lizard must be co-opted, and the poison ivy mushroom will do what it can. ”
"Got it. ”
The green-haired girl was suddenly touched by this title, and in order to avoid the ambiguous gaze of the other two, she hurriedly dodged out and closed the compound door heavily.
"What are we doing?" asked Kara, rubbing her shoulders and looking confused.
"Of course, it's to settle accounts with the garrison on Hadrian's Wall. ”
Yalei put on his uniform jacket and stared at the ruins outside the window, a hint of cruelty appeared on his face:
"Standard sword. Eagle wing badges, regular army uniforms, and so many Celts crossing the Great Wall, if these bastards are okay, I'll sacrifice Mr. Casper with my own head!"
......
Hadrian's Wall was built on a steep slope raised between ridges, and at the end of the land along the rolling hills, every fifty yards there was a strong beacon.
The Cold Weapon Age was once a nightmare for the Celts. As the rune's spell continues to escalate, its effects are not so obvious. But it still serves as the de facto dividing line between the two countries.
In front of Hadrian's Wall is Anthony's Wall, which was once part of the Rosevians' war front against the Highlands, but is now in a semi-abandoned state as the strategic center of the empire moves eastward.
In a gray-and-white building in the military camp at the back of the Great Wall, there were intermittent sounds of laughter and play, and the two guards outside the door were staring straight ahead. A deaf and accustomed attitude.
In the luxurious command room, the floor was covered with a thick Achaemeni cashmere blanket, burning the strong-smelling expensive spices, and on the front wall of the opposite door, a large Celtic map was pasted.
Colonel Shelton, who was once the head of the Celtic Military District. Lying on a flexible snow-white thigh, with half-closed eyes, he was talking to his little highland lover.
On the white coffee table next to the bed, dates, sweet oranges, grilled meats and cheeses are arranged, and the rich scent of black tea fills the air.
"Thirsty, thirsty. ”
The man glanced at his little lover, tapped his finger at his throat, and said lazily:
"Something to drink. ”
"Yes, sir. ”
The Celtic girl's voice was gentle and lovely, and she picked up the silver-plated teapot at hand, took a sip of warm black tea, and then put her lips to the other's lips, and crossed over with Kazu.
"Uh-huh!"
Sheldon burped pleasantly, raised his hand to pick up a date from the fruit bowl on the side, threw it into his mouth, and wiped it on his lover's plump chest.
"Oh no!"
Adjutant Jace's impatient voice came from outside the door, and he slammed open the closed compound door, and shouted at the knight officer, who was still lying on the soft couch enjoying the maiden's service:
"That airborne hairy boy is here!"
"What?"
He opened his eyes suddenly, quickly sat up from the soft couch, and reprimanded coldly: "What are you panicking about, it's just a stunned young man of good luck, just say that I have something to do today and can't receive it." ”
"Do you still need to tell me, I've already said it, but it doesn't work, he's leading people to break into the barracks now, and our people can't stop it at all!"
"Hurry up and prepare!"
"How many people did he bring?" asked Sheldon, grimacing.
"Not counting him, he brought three people!" Seeing the sneer on his face, the adjutant hurriedly said, "But they are all fourth-order natural calamity knights!"
"Don't panic, that guy is just an empty shell governor, and I don't have a handle in his hands. Sheldon put on his clothes, shoes and socks under the costume of a Celtic maiden, straightened his collar with both hands, and sneered:
"But it's okay, let me go out and meet this so-called Imperial Eagle. ”
"No need. ”
With this cold sound, a gust of wind suddenly rolled up in the room, and the figures of Yalei, Bruno, Kara, and Sizz appeared in the luxurious command room in an instant.
He looked around silently, and suddenly chuckled, "Your Excellency, this is how you have always been stationed on the Great Wall?"
"Humph!"
Sheldon turned his head disdainfully, put his hands behind his back, and said proudly: "For twelve years, I have been guarding the Great Wall like this, and I have never had an accident, so I don't need you to point fingers. ”
"Really?"
The black-haired knight paced to the coffee table, picked up a date, and turned to look at the other party:
"What happened to the Celtic terrorists who attacked Glamorgan at night not long ago, and what happened yesterday when the people of the Highland Kingdom pretended to be the regular army of Rosevia and attacked the harpy's lair?"
"That's your problem. ”
The officer raised his chin with his back to him, and said with a blank face:
"My duty is to garrison the Great Wall, what does the security of the Celtic region have to do with me, the highland barbarians may be the Celts who invade from the coast by boat, this is your dereliction of duty. ”
"You're right, I'm derelict in my duties. ”
Yalei swept the dates in his hand, moved his gaze to the Celtic girl in the corner, and said calmly: "But you, who hide a Celtic woman in the command room, can't be convincing when you say such a thing. ”
"Celtic woman?"
The other party sneered, turned to look at his lover, twisted his neck and said, "She is a prisoner I captured, and I am interrogating this woman with some key information, what's wrong with this?"
"So...... Can you hand over this captive to me?" asked Are, turning his gaze into his eyes, pointing to the terrified-looking Celtic girl.
"No need, I've already searched for all the information on this woman, and now ...... It's useless!"
As he spoke, Sheldon raised the index finger of his right hand like lightning, and a trace of cyan fighting spirit instantly shuttled out, aiming directly at the lover who was still warm with him just now.
Smack!
A date smashed on the Celtic girl's cheek, knocking her into tears, and she was unprepared and fell on the carpet by the impact, narrowly avoiding the fatal blow.
Bang!
The cyan fighting aura pierced through the wall, cutting through a black, steaming hole.
"How so...... Deception ......"
The girl stared blankly at the eyelets beside her, and after realizing that it was her lover who wanted to kill her, she suddenly held her head with both hands, and broke down into two lines of tears.
"Your Excellency, do you want to execute the captives, or kill the people?" either way, you have to ask me if you allow it, right?"
The black-haired knight slowly withdrew his right hand that threw the dates, and glanced at the trio, motioning for them to pay attention to the movements around them.
Bruno, Kara, and Seez nodded at the same time, and silently dispersed, encircling Sheldon and his lieutenant.
"Lord Governor, Lord Sheldon, calm down! You must be calm! Everyone is a courtier of His Majesty the Emperor, there is no need for infighting, it will only make others see the jokes,"
Jace was completely panicked now, he didn't expect the atmosphere to become so tense as soon as the two met.
"This is the garrison of the Great Wall, not the Celtic Governor's Palace, and everything is up to me. Although Sheldon couldn't kill people, his expression was still calm, and his tone was still the same arrogant attitude.
"You're not anymore. ”
Yalei shook his head, silently clenched his fists, and his pupils locked on his figure:
"From now on, the garrison officer of Hadrian's Wall shall be Colonel Scheez, Lord Shelton, and I remove you from all posts for dereliction of duty. Now you have two choices, tie it up and follow me, or ...... Seriously injured come with me. ”
"Hahahaha!"
The officer let out a long laugh as if he had heard a joke, looked directly into the other party's eyes, and said with a straight face: "A mere Scourge knight is also worthy of serving as the commander of the Great Wall garrison......?
