Chapter 54: The Light of Justice in the Prairie (2)

Watching the group of Dragon City rush out of Canossa City, Sheriff Marin has been thinking about something, he has been thinking about what these little ghosts have said, and that confident look. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 One of the soldiers who followed him seemed to read his mind and asked, "Sir, are you worried about them?"

Marin replied, "Oh, maybe a little. ”

Someone next to me said, "Maybe you're not thinking about that, Chief Marin. ”

When Marin heard this, he felt that this voice was so familiar, and when he looked back, he saw Airy, the owner of Airy's Tavern, and asked, "Airy, why are you here?"

Airy replied, "I've come out to buy some ingredients, and when I pass by here, aren't those kids the same little ghosts that Ryan was mentoring?" haven't you heard yet, they are Ryan's Hidden Sons who have exposed the plot of Evil Sass and rescued the kidnapped Phantom Pet Master and many Phantom Beasts, which have been appreciated by Professor Ed Koronos and the Phantom Pet Master. ”

"Son of the Vault?" Marin asked, "Did Count Ryan say that?"

Airy replied: "Hehe, how could Ryan say such a thing? It's everyone's discussion, Chief Marlin, you know, Ryan never mentors anyone, let alone accepts apprentices, becomes an instructor, even Angel of the royal Phil family is full of confidence to join the team led by Ryan, what are their advantages, maybe not measured by strength, you also saw it just now, that is the light of justice with confidence." ”

"Really?" Marin came back to his senses and saw that Airy was already far away.

The group of Dragon City, who had rushed out of Canossa City, went straight to the Hidden Fog Swamp, and heard from passers-by and guard soldiers that many caravans and people had gone to the Hidden Fog Swamp. This road is the only way for the city of Canossa to do business in the towns of Kochi and Danadora.

Puss began to order everyone as captain, and although there was no specific explanation of who would be the captain, they all acquiesced in his leadership skills. Puth said: "Dragon City and I go first, Kuwen and Guise follow us closely, Enna and Angel go last, along the way, please Kuwen and Guise, you tell us about Calders, we want to have a preliminary understanding of it." ”

Everyone acted according to Puth's arrangement, and Kuwen first talked about the previous deployment of the kingdom: on the official roads on the major territories of the human kingdom's forces, in the past, there had always been a sentry post, and a sentry post was set up every five hundred meters in the Hidden Fog Swamp, with ten people stationed there, and every five people rotated to patrol the sentry post 250 meters before and after. This kind of official path would have been very safe, but since the major legions went their separate ways, the royal power of the kingdom has weakened, and they are unable to take care of this. Many sentry posts have been infested by demons, and even no sentry posts exist anymore.

Kuwen continued as he ran: "According to the intelligence, Caldes is a loyal minion of the Demon Dark Lord, it is a monster that grows in the Hidden Mist Swamp, has the appearance of a zerg, and has a pair of bat-like wings, it is a huge monster. It has a lot of power, so it is very destructive. According to the hands left behind by the deceased, Caldes used his wide wings to unleash powerful winds that destroyed everything, and few survived in front of him. Therefore, as soon as they heard its name, many people fled in all directions, and sometimes when they saw its powerful figure from a long distance, they hurried to flee for their lives. ”

"Is that all there is to it?" asked Pus.

Guise replied: "I have heard that Caldes only occasionally came out to do evil, so people who pass by there only occasionally see his terrible figure, but lately, Caldes has appeared frequently, and his harmful behavior is extremely violent. ”

Long Cheng asked, "Didn't the kingdom send warriors to exterminate this demon before that?"

Kuwen replied: "There are not enough guards in the kingdom, there are not enough guards in the major cities, and many human villages are remote and scattered, not to mention, many villages are protected by local villagers who organize militias on their own. Coupled with this thankless task and the absence of a bounty, there is simply no brave man willing to accept the commission, which is also a headache for Her Majesty and the Royal Guard. ”

Enna also asked, "Then can't the queen give an order to the warriors to attack and destroy Caldes?"

Angel replied, "Sister Enna, things are not as simple as we imagined. As we heard last time when we were barricaded and robbed in the Gobi Desert, now the only people in the kingdom who can directly obey Her Majesty's orders are the Royal Guards, and the other legions are almost all in their own way, ostensibly headed by the Queen, but in fact, they can completely disobey the Queen's orders, Her Majesty the Queen does not want to intensify the contradictions, for fear of causing a mutiny, so they can only maintain the status quo, and they can do nothing at all. ”

Kuwen took it over and said: "Yes, if it weren't for the threat of the demon race to the human kingdom, so they reluctantly gathered these legions to the outside world, it might have been in chaos long ago, and then it would not be a war between humans and demons, but a war between humans and humans for power." The Royal Guard is mainly responsible for the security of major cities, and it is also the only force to protect the imperial power, so it is simply unable to send troops to respond to emergencies outside the city. ”

"In recent years, everyone has been afraid of the strength of Count Lane and the Knights Templar. Various forces wanted to win over Count Lane and the Knights Templar, and because of this, Count Lane had disappeared for many years, and no one knew where he went, some said that he went to the Temple of the Holy Mountain. It is also said that when he rescued the Kingdom Legion in the Lost Heights, he fought alone and died in battle, until the night when Her Majesty was captured by the Demon Army, he mysteriously appeared. ”

"But aren't there many brave men in the kingdom?" asked Enna, "and aren't they willing to do anything for the safety of the kingdom?"

Kuwen said: "Any brave man has a legion or force to which they belong, and many legions or forces are unwilling to stand up and contradict powerful evil forces or hostile legions in order to preserve their own strength or protect themselves. For missions like this, some legions deliberately wait for the queen to offer a bounty so that they can get military expenses and expand their legions and power. ”

Puth was very upset when he heard this, and said, "Are these the brave men of our human kingdom?"

Long Cheng was also very angry, and said, "Now is not the time for us to think about those things, I think it will be resolved sometime, Master Ryan will not let that kind of war between humans break out." What we have to do now is to use the light of justice to give the monster the punishment it deserves. Destroy it and maintain the peace of this continent. ”

Angel nodded and said, "Well, do what is in front of you, I agree with Brother Longcheng's point of view." ”

Puth also said, "Alright, quick, we're going into the Hidden Fog Swamp, Mr. Kuwen, please remind us of the way forward." Kuwen agreed, and the six of them quickened their pace again.
