Chapter 604: The Story of Wolves Eating People
"Head Sam...... Captain Gunther ......"
A battlemage in light gray robes ran up the stairs of the city wall, panting and shouting. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
A few years ago, the airship mothership had been collected, the entire skeleton had been dismantled, the airbags were used to make more than 60 hot air balloons, and the sound transmission circle on the mothership that could communicate with each hot air balloon was kept intact and arranged in the communication room of the command station of the border defense post. Therefore, those hot air balloons sent out for reconnaissance can contact the border guard post at any time.
"Tell me, what's going on?" Sam looked unusually anxious.
“...... Falling Rock ...... The knights came from Falling Rock...... Divide the troops into two ways...... Marching in both eastern and western directions...... Their intentions are not yet known...... There is no sign of southward expansion for the time being...... Only sporadic knights are active within forty kilometers of the North Falling Cliffs......" said the messenger breathlessly, glancing at the letter in his hand with each sentence, and he wrote down all the information on this paper to prevent forgetting.
Sam couldn't wait for him to continue, and snatched the letter from his hand.
......
“...... Rockfall was in ruins, and all the outposts had been destroyed, as if there had been a fierce battle...... They carved a forty-kilometer-wide uninhabited strip near the North Fall Cliff, probably to hide their tracks...... "Sam reads out reconnaissance information year by year, occasionally annotating his own opinions, which is what Donner has always asked of him, a qualified commander to learn to read the enemy's intentions from intelligence.
"......" Donner was silent for a few seconds before he said in a deep voice, "Where do you think they're going?"
"Fog City and Cliff City ......," Sam replied without thinking.
Donner nodded, and then asked, "Why?"
"They're marching along the North Fall Cliffs......" Sam's tone was a little uncertain.
"I'm not asking you how you come to this conclusion, I'm saying why they went to Fog City and Cliff City. Donner said.
"Your Excellen......cy," Sam paused for a second on the other end of the sound transmission circle, "I think they may have attacked the empty garrison of Falling Rock, and now they are taking advantage of the fact that the Far North has not yet reacted, to surprise attack Fog City and Cliff City, and ......"
Donner frowned slightly, Sam's judgment was basically the same as his, and the reason why he wanted Sam to speak his mind was to corroborate his guess.
"And they're not trying to take Fog City and Cliff City, are they?" said Downer.
"Yes, my lord," Sam continued, "they don't need to occupy Fog City, once they seal the exits of the other cities in the north, they will be free to send their troops south." ”
"Hmm......" Donner nodded slightly, "Sam, act now, possess the hot air balloon, and destroy the exit of Falling Rock City at all costs!"
"Do you want to deal with those troops?" asked Sam.
"No, not yet. "Unless they show signs of going south." ”
"Yes, my lord, before noon, Falling Rock City will be history. Sam said categorically.
......
In the eastern part of the Aili Industrial Zone, Lisa's residence is all made of huge stones, and if Donner has been to the Chiga Mountains, he will definitely find that this rugged architectural style is in the same vein as the Dragon City of the Chiga Mountains.
At the edge of the stone complex, in a slightly dark stone room, a dwarf wise man sat cross-legged on the ground, his expression calm as usual. The stone door opened, and the harsh sunlight outside the house shone in, Cynthia tilted her head slightly, and then looked up at Donner standing in the doorway, with no blame or resentment on her face.
Donna glanced at the white-robed mage on the stone bench inside the door, and the latter got up and walked out. The attitude of these white-robed mages towards Donner had always been amazing, neither as respectful as they had ever been with Lisa, nor had they ever shown any hostility or contempt. At the end of the day, it's as if they see Donner as a figure who has nothing to do with them at all.
Donner sometimes wondered if these guys hadn't all been turned into walking dead by Sandru's psychic magic. However, this is not something he has time to care about right now.
Behind him, the stone door closed, Donner walked over to Cynthia and sat down, as if nothing had happened, and said lightly: "An army of knights has come up from Falling Rock, and it is huge. ”
It was only then that Cynthia had a look of shock and abruptness on her face.
"When?" she asked.
"Found it last night. Donner said.
"How big?" Cynthia's question hit the nail on the head.
"One hundred thousand...... Or more. ”
Cynthia stood up and said hurriedly, "Outside the city?" She still habitually thought of Ellie as a city, even though there were no walls at all.
"They didn't come here, they went to Fog City and Cliff City. Donner said.
"Spike, old thief!" Cynthia enraged. With only a few key pieces of information, she has been able to piece together the outline of the truth.
"Can the Sound Transmission Circle in Fog City still work?" Donner didn't care who was to blame, and now that the problem was solved, the key was to solve the problem.
Cynthia shook her head and gritted her teeth, "The Elders sealed the Sound Transmission Circle, and it's Spike...... He must have been planning for a long time. ”
Donner sighed and slowly got up.
"You can start praying now. His tone was flat, and the implication was to make Cynthia bless herself.
"Isn't there a sounding circle in Mist Town?" Cynthia said urgently.
"It's been ......removed a long time ago," Donner walked out the door, "and besides, Misty Town has never had a letter crow. ”
"Santan City!" Cynthia hadn't given up yet.
"From Santan City to Fog City, it will take a day to ride the fastest horse, and it will be too late. Donner shook his head: "You should know how fast the Knights march in a hurry. ”
With that, Donner had already pushed the door open and walked out.
Behind him, Cynthia sat down on the ground, this time, not as calm as before.
A few minutes later, Ceosés walked into the open stone chamber.
"I guessed countless possibilities, but I didn't expect it to be because of this. He said helplessly: "It's a pity, I was still looking forward to how many magical things will happen in this place......
"Spike...... Cynthia's clenched fists trembled slightly, "this fool who thinks he's smart. ”
Ceosis nodded thoughtfully, and said, "I heard a story about how a clever shepherd bought jackals to release when the northern steppes were flooded with hares, expecting these hungry beasts to help him get rid of the rabbits, and Spike may have heard this story. However, he probably didn't know the end of the story...... Wolves eat rabbits, prefer sheep, and eat people when they are hungry. ”
