1126. Retention
This row of pergolas was built by a wall behind the fortress gates, and the wounded knights sat silently in the pergola, with the occasional irrepressible cry of pain.
Many of the wounds have a faint black aura, and it is these negative effects that corrode into the wounds that cause continuous damage to the warriors, so that the water mages and life potions can only keep the wounds from continuing to deteriorate, and some healers have to scrape off the flesh with negative effects attached to the wounds, and then there are special construction knights to activate the 'prayer' aura and 'purification' aura in the pergola.
While resting against the wall, the spearman sat down beside Surdak, wiped the silver spear in his hand with a clean rag, and stretched out his hand to Surdak and said, "Hi, my name is Alec, Paladin, which fortress are you from?" Why haven't I seen you before? ”
Surdak took out the kettle, took a sip of water and said: "I am Surdak from Bena Province, I just entered the battlefield through the King Kong Gate half a month ago, and unfortunately I just teleported out of the portal and was separated from my companions. ”
"Didn't you come out of the portal of the Chaos Fortress in Sector 7?" Alec asked, surprised.
Surdak stretched out his hand, shrugged his shoulders a little helplessly, and said, "After stepping out of the portal, I found myself falling into a gap in a canyon in the Black Rock Mountain, and I walked in that mountain for half a month to find this place. ”
Alec was dumbfounded and said, "So you haven't reached the Chaos Fortress at all, and you haven't been assigned to the War Zone Commander over there...... Wouldn't it be so unlucky that so many people teleported away from you? ”
"Each of you was assigned here through the Chaos Fortress?" Surdak patted his forehead and asked with some uncertainty.
The warriors sitting on the side looked at Surdak, and everyone had a 'so you only know now' expression on their faces at the same time.
Apparently Surdak had gained the approval of the warriors from the battle just now, and next to him, a constructed knight with an injured arm struggled to take off his steel helmet and said to Surdak with a smile: "Look at you turn on the power aura, you should be a constructed knight, but your shield is awesome!" ”
Everyone sat down against the wall, waiting for the water magician to come and heal everyone.
Alec unfastened his constructed armor and said to Surdak, "Your luck is a bit bad, but congratulations on getting out of that dangerous area. ”
He lifted his linen shirt, revealing a half-foot-long horizontal wound in his ribs, with a black flame on it, and even the blood that flowed out of it was purple.
Alec took a deep breath, took out a bottle of pale green antidote from his arms, bit the cork with his mouth, pulled out the cork, and poured a trace of green potion on the wound, and suddenly the black devil qi steamed, and he screamed in pain.
The warriors on the side seemed to have long been accustomed to it.
Surdak reached out and grabbed Alec's wrist.
Alec was slightly stunned, and then handed the half bottle of potion in his hand to Surdak in relief, and said, "Surdak, you are also injured?" ”
"I've been here for a long time, and I've almost forgotten that magic potions are scarce in the empire, and as long as you have military merit here, you can exchange for enough magic potions......," Alec said with a slight bow.
"This antidote is not good for your wound healing, your wound is only corroded by demonic qi, but it is not poisoned!" Surdak took the bottle of antidote, re-cloned it with a cork, and threw it to Alec.
"I know, it's a pity that there are no purification potions in the logistics warehouse here, I'm just worried that there are other toxins in the wound, solve it in advance, and then wait for the treatment of the magicians, I tell you, in fact, they are not very professional, except for the use of hydrotherapy, they have no other skills!" Alec leaned against the wall and whispered to Surdak.
During the battle, his shoulders were scratched by the claws of the demon warriors, three on the left and right shoulders, and his linen shirt was stained with blood.
Surdak saw that some warriors were still holding the test tube vials of the secondary life potion in their hands, so he took the initiative to sit up from the wall, and under Alec's stunned eyes, a ball of holy light condensed in his palm and pressed it on his shoulder.
The black flame attached to his shoulder immediately turned into black smoke and drifted away, and Surdak expertly cleaned the wound on Alec's shoulder, took out a steel needle wearing white thread, and stitched Alec's wound together in three strokes and two strokes.
At this time, the warrior next to him immediately picked up two rolls of hemostatic bandages from the wooden frame and helped Surdak to bandage the wounds on Alec's shoulder and ribs.
"A medical officer sent from the Imperial Campbell Sanatorium?" A constructed knight crouched beside Surdak and asked enthusiastically.
"Well, I'm not, I'm just a second-turn knight who has been recruited by the Great Battlefield Pass." Surdak then treated the knight in the costume who had a long wound on his arm, and by this time he had become very skilled in stitching, at least the needles of the centipede patterns had become very neat.
Surdak's Holy Light dispels the black aura attached to the wound, making it incredibly easy to scrape off the carrion.
And Surdak also has good stitching skills, at first he only treated Alec and his team of constructed knights, and then spread to the entire constructed knights guarding the city gates, and finally he felt like he joined the medical rescue team, and with a water mage behind him, he began to treat the constructed knights of the entire fortress.
Even Aldous of the Dhahran Fortress. Commander Banks also heard from his men that there was a paladin in the fortress who had mastered the magic of holy light.
After a period of healing, Surdak discovered that the Holy Light Technique was undoubtedly the best way to dispel demonic energy, and in the process of healing, he also asked the Constructed Knights about the location of the Blue Bridge Fortress.
Hearing Surdak say that he came out of the Black Stone Ridge, these second-turn powerhouses were all surprised, and they didn't understand why such a strange incident occurred.
Every second-turn powerhouse who enters the Great Battlefield actually needs to report in the Chaos Fortress, and then they can go to the various fortresses of the Empire in the Seventh District according to the deployment of the headquarters.
However, in recent years, it seems that a convention has been formed: that is, the second-turn powerhouses often hug each other in the province.
This regional agglomeration has succeeded in avoiding internal contradictions caused by regional issues.
In this way, although the contradictions and conflicts between the two strong people in each region have been reduced, such a clear geographical division has deepened the estrangement between the provinces......
This time the Darlan Fortress has been brewing for more than half a year, the demon army continues to suppress the Darlan Fortress, and has captured a large area of territory outside the fortress, the commander of the Darlan Fortress, the Marquis of Aldous, has shrunk his forces across the board, and mobilized a large number of Constructed Knights from other alliance provinces, and finally waited for the opportunity for the Demon Army to prepare to attack the Darlan Fortress, and conducted such a large-scale battle outside the fortress.
The number of second-turn powerhouses participating in this battle alone reached nearly two thousand, and you must know that the Greene Empire only had more than 10,000 second-turn powerhouses in the entire seventh war zone.
……
Built against a hill to block the mouth of the gorge heading north, the fortress was a military fortress with no inhabitants, almost all of which were garrison quarters, and the top of the fortress was surrounded by high walls on all sides, and dozens of bed crossbows were placed at the head of the city.
All the rooms in the fortress of Dharan were already full, and even the inner courtyard of the fortress was full of tents.
Surdak also set up a tent in the inner courtyard, and it was a very comfortable single room, and he sat in the tent and munched on a piece of salamander neck meat, which was originally prepared for Gullitham, but unfortunately the ogre's luck was not too good......
Or maybe Surdak's luck wasn't too good, so the ogres didn't have anything to eat.
After the salamander was cooked by Aphrodite, most of it ran into Surdak's stomach, and although the food Aphrodite cooked did not taste very good, at least the food was cooked, according to Aphrodite: high-quality ingredients often only need the simplest way to cook......
Surdak silently sprinkled some salt on it, tore off a piece of meat and chewed it carefully.
A voice came from outside: "Which is the Grand Knight of Surdak?" Commander Aldous summons you. ”
Surdak hurriedly put down the salamander neck meat in his hand, lifted the curtain of the tent, and said to the outside: "Got it, I'll go over immediately." ”
The herald hurriedly bowed his head, then turned and walked in the other direction, having just won a great battle, and the fortress of Dharan had a lot to deal with.
Surdak took a sip of cold water with a bitter and refreshing function, sorted out the magic pattern structure on his body, and then walked out of the tent.
Along the way, people greeted him everywhere, and although Surdak didn't know most of them, he nodded politely.
They also saw Alec's comrades-in-arms, and when they saw that Surdak's body was full of scars, they kindly reminded him: "Grand Knight of Surdak, you can go to the blacksmith shop in the fortress to repair the armor of the demonic pattern, there are not only skilled blacksmiths there, but also inscriptionists who are good at repairing magic patterns......"
"And in the end, during the war, any maintenance and repair is completely free, and there are simply too many scars on your shield." A second-turn warrior kindly reminded.
"Is it okay for someone like me who doesn't have an official status?" Surdak asked casually.
"You just haven't registered your identity at the Chaos Fortress yet, and no one in the Fortress will refuse your reasonable request just because you've made such a big contribution to the Darlan Fortress......" the second-turn warrior gave Surdak a thumbs up.
Then a group of people walked over.
Surdak climbed the wooden staircase at the end of the corridor and came to the innermost door on the third floor, where the guards at the door only glanced at Surdak and said, "Grand Knight Surdak, Lord Commander is waiting for you inside!" ”
Both guards were also wearing demonic uniforms, and looking at the friendly smiles on their faces, it was clear that they both knew Surdak.
Surdak walked up and knocked on the door.
'Tuk Tuk'
"Come in......" a muffled voice came from the room.
Surdak pushed the door open and walked in, and saw Commander Aldous, dressed in a demonic uniform, sitting behind his desk and correcting papers, his hair gray, but he looked very energetic, his beard was neatly trimmed, and his hair was meticulously groomed.
Commander Aldous raised his head and stared sharply at Surdak.
Surdak had seen the commander of the Dharan Fortress from a distance before, and his body exuded the aura of a three-turn powerhouse.
"Commander Aldous, you're looking for me?" Surdak stepped forward and gave a military salute.
"Grand Knight of Surdak, I just got your information, participated in the defense of the city of Vorzhmara on the maca plane, the beast tide in the northern region of the Bailin plane, organized and led the war on the Ganbu plane, and won a great victory! With such an outstanding record, and still so young, you are a Bednar? ”
"Yes, my hometown is in the city of Hylanza, in the Talapakant region of Bena province." Surdak replied respectfully.
"Aren't all the swordsmen in Bena Province, how did you choose to take the path of a knight?" Commander Aldous asked.
Surdak touched his nose and said, "Actually, I originally served in the Heavy Infantry Regiment and was a shield soldier, but after retiring from the army, I joined the Hylanza Guard Battalion and became a guard battalion knight......
Commander Aldous continued: "A knight of your burly stature, I have only seen it in the Legion of the North Wind, and I have to say, you have done a good job in Darlan Fortress. ”
"You also see the situation in the fortress now, the fortress needs paladins like you, if you are willing to stay, I can write to the commander and ask him to keep you in the fortress of Darran."
Surdak also felt that he enjoyed fighting with these constructed knights, and the scene of the constructed knights charging was even more exciting than the constructed swordsmen of the Bena Province.
However, he hesitated for a moment, and still said according to the instructions of the Marquis of Luther: "Before I came to the battlefield, I was entrusted by an elder to visit Commander Adolphus in the Blue Bridge Fortress. ”
Commander Aldous pinched the corners of his eyes, his face showing an unconcealable disappointment, and then said, "Okay, I know, the only swordsmanship master in the seventh sector of the Great Battlefield, Adolphus, is the commander of the Blue Bridge Fortress, and he is also from the province of Bena. ”
"Now that you've made up your mind, I won't force you, no matter what, I still want to thank you for your contribution to the fortress of Darran."
"I'm afraid you're not familiar with the road here, you can take the carriage of the Chaos Fortress Material Logistics Department back to the fortress to register."
Surdakli stood and saluted Commander Aldous.
"Yes, Commander."
Commander Aldous did not stop Surdak from returning to the Chaos Fortress, but gave Surdak a war horse before leaving, and asked him to return north with the logistics convoy.
