Chapter 561: Bireg City (7)
Ryan nodded after listening to Alicena's words, he also knew that his group was large in number, and his appearance was completely unfamiliar, if there was no Solaufen as a guide, he was afraid that there would be more flaws left in this Birig City, but even so, it was Alicena, a specially trained spy, who exposed his whereabouts, of course, this was mainly because of bad luck, how could a spy who always pay attention to the details around him turn a blind eye to the appearance of such a large group of strangers as Ryan?
"Which family are you from in the dark elves, or which family do you belong to?" Ryan didn't dwell on these things, he was confident that there would not be much contact with the outside world along the way, even if it aroused the suspicion of others at some moments, this news might not be able to reach the central area so quickly, with Ryan's travel speed, unless they directly used the magic teleportation array, it was impossible to surpass them.
"Fiblanche, we are members of the Fiblanche family. Seventy years ago, the family was ordered to build a castle in the Netherworld, and after thirty years of conquest and the consumption of millions of slaves, we already have our own family castle in the Boren Abyss. Alicena replied without hesitation: "Twenty years ago, the family began to expand its power into other abysses, but it was strongly counterattacked by the Rakshasa and the Tiflins, so they switched to a more moderate method. ”
"It's a good idea, and if used correctly, it can be far more effective than a million troops. Ryan nodded in praise, and then suddenly asked, "Tell me the real reason why the central area is closed during this time, and don't lie to me with the excuse of assassination." ”
"Actually, I didn't lie to you, I just didn't tell you everything. Alicena had reached this point, so she didn't plan to hide anything anymore, she said: "I originally planned the assassination to cause panic here, and then I used my connections and the power I could control to promote the arrangement of this temporary closure of the central area. ”
"Just you?" Ryan glanced Alice up and down, not quite believing what she was saying.
Alicena seemed to have guessed Ryan's thoughts, she proudly straightened her neck, and said in a proud tone: "Don't underestimate me, although my fighting strength is not as good as an ordinary high-level warrior, but I am a night singer, if it is not to avoid attracting attention, I can't step into the legendary realm, otherwise even the most powerful legendary powerhouse can only sink in my appearance and voice." ”
"Night singer?" Ryan looked down and thought for a moment, but he didn't understand the characteristics of this profession at all, but Astarott, who was beside him, glanced at Alisna in surprise, and opened his mouth to explain Ryan's confusion: " You can see it as an extremely rare advancement of the Bard, similar to the Light Priest who specializes in healing recovery, except that the Light Priest is good at healing his companions, while the Night Singer is good at getting in the way of his opponents, and their bodies and voices are the deadliest weapons that can make their enemies willingly give up resistance and become vassals. This woman's strength is too weak to play a role in actual combat, but she is quite competent as a spy. ”
Alicena was surprised by Astarote's understanding of her profession, but she hated Astarote even more in her heart for belittling herself, in the seven years since she was ordered to lurk in Bigeg City, there are not many guests under Alicena's skirt, after all, in most cases, men will never forget what they can't get at all or are extremely difficult to get, and if they get it too smoothly, they won't cherish it, but those who are qualified to linger with Alicena overnight are all powerful figures in Bireg, and it can be said that Alicena has controlled the small half of Birig City from another aspect。
This achievement has made Alicena's family ecstatic, and not long ago, she handed over the family's latent power in the entire city of Bireg to manage her, so that she can build her own connections and secret power more quickly, so as to better serve the family, and now Astarott has completely negated Alicena's achievements with an understatement, as if she is still here because she is not very useful.
Of course, Alicena doesn't know Astarote's true identity, if she understands that the other party is a realm level powerhouse, then maybe Alicena will be ecstatic for Astarote's simple evaluation of herself, at least this Thor Demon's hateful demon general still agrees with her qualifications as a spy, if she belongs to the camp of the demon prince, with the support of just such a sentence, Alicena has infinite possibilities for development in the future.
After listening to Astarote's explanation, Ryan thought for a while and asked, "Fiblanche, have you heard of this family?"
Astarot shook his head slowly, and said, "How could I have heard such a humble name? Their family headquarters mostly coexists in the same city with dozens of other families, do you remember the name of the dog that lived with your cook's wife and her neighbor's cousin next door? ”
Astarote's words are a bit awkward, but they can very vividly describe the status of this Fibrand in the entire dark elf population, which makes Alicena very uncomfortable, but Ryan knows that Astarlot is already merciful, in fact, as long as you think about it, you can almost understand the situation of the Fibrand family, in the city where the family headquarters lives, it is a little untenable, and has to go to the plane of the Netherworld to obtain space for family development in the name of development, such a family really can't be put into Astarote's eyes。
Ryan did not despise her because the family behind Alicena was not famous, and the family that was able to go to another plane to fight and fight, just to obtain the future development space of the family, the patriarch who led them to make this decision must be a respectable figure, don't look at them now as if they are being exiled away from their homeland, but who can guarantee that this family will not return strongly after hundreds of thousands of years because of the birth of more strong people? So Ryan said: " That patriarch of yours is supposed to be a visionary, and maybe I'll get to see her in the future, but for now you can go ahead and tell me the whole plan. ”
Alicena was surprised to get such a brainless compliment from Ryan, she didn't have time to think about anything, and told her whole plan straightforwardly, several families of the dark elves united from several different stairs at the same time, and then besieged the city of Bireg from different directions, and now it is almost completely encircled, in fact, there is no need to encircle, as long as the army of the dark elves occupies the "stairs" leading to different abysses The inhabitants of Birrig City had no way to escape, after all, no matter how fast they were in the wilderness, they could not outrun the lizard-ridden Dark Elf light cavalry Bloody Marauders.
The siege of a giant city like Birig, if it is stormed from the outside, is afraid that it will cost more than three times the cost of the defenders under ten times the strength, and it will take six months to several years, which is not something that the commander of the Dark Elf Legion is willing to do, so lurkers like Alicena all launched a campaign, they want to disturb the internal stability of Bireg City as much as possible, so as to reduce the resistance of the outside legions to attack the city.
In addition, in order to prevent the important people of the city from fleeing and let the strong people from other places come to help, Alicena and the others also tried their best to completely shut down all the teleportation circles connected to the outside world, which made Alicena feel strange that the level and importance of this order were far above all other requirements, and its harsh wording even overwhelmed her, and the order used the coldest words to explain that as long as the teleportation circle could operate normally when the coalition forces outside attacked, Alicena and the others would suffer the most severe punishment for the dereliction of duty, no matter what kind of credit they made before or after, it would not be recognized。
As a last resort, Alicena used all the power at hand to create a series of meaningless assassinations, and then took the opportunity to launch some chambers of commerce under her influence to promote the blockade of the central area in the name of manhunting. When the entire area is closed and hunted because of the assassination, the situation of people coming and going will inevitably be affected, and people outside will not have the opportunity to come in and use the teleportation magic array here, even the people in the central area will reduce the chance of going out because it is not peaceful outside.
These methods are very effective, the legendary mage who was secretly awakened by Alicena was placed in the teleportation circle, responsible for the maintenance and operation of the magic array, has successfully found an opportunity to destroy the core parts of a number of teleportation magic arrays a day and a half ago, these large teleportation magic arrays are usually not used, usually only the Chamber of Commerce cross-dimensional transport personnel or materials will be used, after the central area was temporarily closed, the internal and external communication naturally delayed the fact that the teleportation magic array was destroyed.
This is also the reason why Alicena said that she wanted to drag Ryan and them, because the legendary mage who was responsible for the destruction at noon today was finally exposed, as long as someone who cares about it a little bit of the legendary mage's experience in the past few days will find that after he came to the Brimstone Bar for the first time in his life, a number of teleportation magic arrays were destroyed that night, which is indeed a big flaw, Alicena must figure out the intention of the strangers who suddenly appeared in Ryan, but unfortunately she did something that should not be done at all.
