Chapter 113: The Beat of the Drums
After 22 days of tossing on the sea, the fleet was finally able to see the outline of the land in the distance from the bow of the ship. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The people cheered when they heard that they were about to arrive at their destination, after all, it was not a pleasant day to be bumpy at sea.
Especially with the lack of food and water, the journey can be called exceptionally difficult.
Thankfully, they managed to get through it thanks to their concerted efforts under the leadership of the young governor.
The oncoming sea breeze was mixed with a slight smell of sea, and seagulls skimmed over the surface of the sea and flew onto the masts of the ships.
The young governor looked out over the dense forest, and the Blackfire Castle was hidden in the depths of the forest.
"We will be ashore in two days. He said softly, a little relieved.
"You don't seem to be as excited as you think. Jason wondered.
Seeing the long-lost land, his expression was a little complicated.
He had been away from the continent for ten years.
This time he returns, he must glorify the name of "Iron Armor" on the entire continent!
"I'm also a duke and governor, how can I do it if I can't hold my breath? Lin Ye frowned.
According to his initial calculations, it will take about half a year to a year, due to the uneven distribution of benefits.
The conflict between Blackfire Castle and the five major tribes is bound to break out.
And he did prepare for it.
But these are all based on the premise that he is still in charge of the Black Fire Castle.
If the news of his disappearance leaks out, there is no guarantee that the five major tribes will not take this opportunity to attack.
And at that time, the position of the gray wolf tribe and the black dog tribe will be very embarrassing.
There is no guarantee that they will not choose to sit idly by for their own benefit.
As a result, the two fronts he originally built became empty talk.
Blackfire Castle is like a high-speed machine, without his axis, although it can still function.
But after a certain point, it will collapse.
Maybe he was originally fueling the Black Fire Castle, and his departure was just to knock the Black Fire Castle back to its original form.
"At first, I only packaged you as a nobleman for the sake of planning, but I didn't expect you to be a real duke, what a surprise. Jason smiled.
He was a whole head taller than the young governor.
And compared to Lin Ye's small arms and legs and his sturdy physique, it is simply the difference between bean sprouts and a javelin.
He stood there like a flag.
His feet were nailed to the deck.
Let the landslide and tsunami, the sky and the earth crack, and it can't shake it in the slightest!
"This world is always full of all kinds of accidents, but I, the duke, are actually similar to the village chief, you, are the village sheriff. Lin Ye joked half-jokingly as if he were self-deprecating.
The population of Blackfire Castle is only a little more than 600 people, and the lack of population has always been a problem for him.
This trip to sea was beyond his plans.
However, he also brought 16 boats and more than 3,000 people back.
As the saying goes, if you lose your horse, you don't know if it's a blessing.
But is it really a blessing in disguise?
Or is the disaster far from over?
"What are your plans for the affair with Miss Yuffie, and will you make up the wedding when you return to the territory?" asked Jason suddenly.
It doesn't matter what their purpose is beforehand.
After all, Lin Ye is the heir designated by the governor of Dupont.
He is the recognized governor of the people of Undercurrent, and the husband of Miss Yuffie.
It's just that because of the sudden appearance of the Bolton family, the wedding was canceled and the ceremony was not successfully completed.
During his time at sea, he was asked this question several times.
Lin Yedu had already arrived at the Black Fire Castle, and it would not be too late to discuss it as an excuse to shirk it.
Now that the Black Fire Castle is in front of him, Jason has put this matter on the agenda again, which is a headache for Lin Ye.
"Well...... I really haven't figured it out. He smiled bitterly.
Jason was the one who planned the wedding, and he had nothing to hide from Jason in this matter.
Although his real body is a young man in his twenties, he has no experience in falling in love, let alone getting married.
Besides, he's only 14 years old in this world.
Getting married at this age is really difficult for him to accept.
"I just wanted to remind you, you should have guessed that Miss Yuffie represents the noble surname of the previous dynasty, and you are the Duke of the Empire, if you combine with Miss Yuffe, you will face a very embarrassing situation, you must think carefully. Jason kindly reminded him.
The Lionheart Empire and the Aries Dynasty are completely opposites.
If he marries Yuffie, the Blackfire family is bound to go to the opposite side of the empire.
Although the Lionheart Emperor is old and faint, he is no longer as brave as he used to be.
But the Lionheart Empire's military power was still at its peak.
Among the many forces in the Miracle Continent, it is still second to none.
Fighting against the Empire is definitely a very dangerous choice!
"But the others have followed me here, and I can't drive them out, can I? Alas, I can only take one step at a time, and I can drag it out as long as I can. Lin Ye sighed, he really lacked the experience to deal with this kind of thing.
can only use the procrastination trick to the end.
Jason gave him a sympathetic look.
Petrels skim across the sea and slide into the sky.
Land.
It's already close at hand!
――――
Dussel kicked the messenger out of the city gate, marking the final breakdown of negotiations between the two sides.
1000 strong orc soldiers surrounded the castle.
The patriarchs of the five major tribes stood at the forefront of the army, lined up.
"It's really a group of human beings who can't help themselves, and they don't even cherish the last chance to live, after the city is broken today, they must be killed cleanly!" the ironback patriarch spat out.
Although the five major tribes are led by the three-pronged tail, and the three-pronged tail is the leader.
But in terms of the combat effectiveness of the army, the Blood Wolf Tribe can be called the first in the Heishui River region.
They are close relatives of the Gray Wolf tribe, and Ironback is related to Luff Grey and even cousins.
However, the status of the two is clearly not the same.
Ironback spat and shouted outside the city, so not majestic.
But Luffy Grey was packing up his things in the city, ready to run away through the back door with the tribe's son.
"Ironback, you're wrong, if you kill them, who's going to make wine for us?" In my opinion, it's good to kill only the old and the young, and as for the young ones, go and make wine, and work for us, women......" The green ghost laughed.
It's a notoriously old color embryo among orcs.
Any female creature that falls into its hands will hardly end well.
"Or you're right, our sons of the Blood Wolf Tribe take the lead, pass the order, and prepare to attack!"
Its gaze was fixed on the city.
The archers on the tower were already ready.
Dussel held the iron sword in his hand, staring at the iron back from a distance.
He snorted coldly, waved his hand, and said, "Lift out the ivory horn and war drum." ”
Four soldiers carried their horns up the tower, and the drums of war were already in place.
"Beat the drums, meet the enemy!"
