Chapter 3 [The Road to Escape]
In Rod's memory, this escape had lasted for several days, and these few days also subverted the noble image of the prince in his heart. www.biquge.info The pampered prince's life and the long journey of fugitive, I don't know where the next meal will be after eating one meal, and finally on this day the prince can't bear it.
Rod guessed that this might be the reason why he had completed the crossing, and that he would continue to finish the road that Rod had not finished anyway. At least until it's absolutely safe.
"Bazaar, see if any enemy forces are coming after you. Barnett Burt commanded.
"Yes, General!" replied a tall soldier at the back of the line.
"Look, you think you're clairvoyant. There is a dense forest as far as the eye can see, where can you see the trees?" Rod thought to himself.
But in the next second, the soldier named Bazaar told Rhodes what to think. After the bazaar stopped, he leaned down, put his ears on the ground, closed his eyes, and began to 'see' seriously.
The fleeing team also temporarily stopped to recover their strength because of the bazaar. It only took a few tens of minutes to cross from Bai Yutang to Rod's body, and Bai Yutang hurried to the point where he was a little tired, and he also affirmed the conjecture in his heart.
During the busy time of Bazaar, Rhodes did not sit idle, and began to investigate the condition of his body, at least he had to know whether he could still use spells and what level of spells he could use.
Because he knows that there is not even a little magic in this world, in the words of Rod, "war is fought by brute force, and survival can only depend on the weather." ”
If you can have immortal magic beyond mortals in this world, then this plug-in is better than anything else.
However, after trying several immortal arts, Rhodes knew that he had crossed over and did not bring even a little mana, which was an extremely bad result.
"Report to the general, there is a cavalry squad of about twenty men, coming in this direction, a distance of 2 kilometers, and it may be to us in ten minutes. Bazaar stood up and reported to Barnett.
"Northeast, Barron, forge footprints, keep up as soon as possible. Let's go southeast!" Barnett quickly made plans for his escape.
"Yes! ”
After hearing Barnett's plan, Bazaar's face changed significantly, and he reminded him regardless of the soldier's duty to obey the order: "General, if you go southwest, you will reach the territory of the orcs, that will be very dangerous." ”
"Do you think we'll be able to escape their knightly legion by continuing in this damn Aldington, or can you defeat the twenty-man cavalry squad in front of us and keep us safe for the time being?"
Barnett did not feel lost his identity because of Bazaar's confrontation, but patiently explained that Bazaar also bowed his head in shame because of these words, but the pace under his feet did not slow down, and he continued to flee aimlessly.
In Rod's heart, these people can't help but improve their status, it seems that God has not killed him, at least there is the brave and resourceful Barnett, Bazaar who has the ability to 'listen', and Barron who is good at 'disguise'.
Although I don't know what abilities the other three soldiers have, they must still have their own advantages to be favored by the 'treacherous and cunning' General Barnett. And the other two maids don't seem to have any special skills in Rod's memory, but they didn't add trouble to everyone along the way, but took care of His Royal Highness the 'dragging behind' prince, which is also excellent.
Less than ten minutes after the crowd left, Barron caught up, and judging by the confident expression on his face, he should have been quite confident in the disguise he had made.
Just as the confidence on Barron's face was, there were no cavalry to catch up along the way, and after crossing the forest, the group of eight came to a thicket.
"General, after this bush has passed, it has truly reached the territory of the orcs. ”
"Keep walking, walk past and find a place to settle down. There are no walls of Aldington in this place, and there must not be a beast tide, and there should not be many orcs. Barnett analyzed carefully.
"Yes, General!"
Beast tide. Three days after the full moon night, east of Aldington, there must have been an orc riot, corresponding to Christie's 'tsunami', the 'avalanche' of the Ice Kingdom, and Stephens's 'mountain collapse', which are called the 'four devastating disasters' of Roland Continent.
In the past three days, the originally relatively calm borders of the four countries will inevitably face a steady stream of army pressure, and these armies are like crazy, there is no organization and discipline at all, and they don't know what is in the middle of the Roland Continent that makes them yearn for it so much, and they go forward and press on the city tower one after another.
But after these three days, as if nothing had happened, they each returned to their bases, and when they retreated, they did not forget to bring the corpses of their compatriots, including the human corpses that they could easily carry, to clean up the battlefield.
Wiblen XIII had told Roland that it was as if they had mastered an energy that they could not control, and that it could be said that it would do more harm than good. In exchange for three days of sobriety, these three days of madness, although the power is enhanced, but the power of this madness is not used, and it may not be possible to let himself die at the hands of humans in a certain 'beast tide'.
It took them a full hour to cross the bushes, and the spiky bushes also added a lot of new wounds. After another half an hour, the group found a cave about two meters deep and settled down temporarily.
Barnett did not say a word to Rod from beginning to end, even if he asked His Royal Highness the Prince to be careful when he walked through the bushes and asked His Royal Highness if he needed to rest, these actions undoubtedly proved that the great general was only fulfilling the king's instructions.
If Rhodes had known that Barnett's order was only to protect himself and keep himself alive, he might have said to the general, "Your esteemed prince has ascended to heaven." I don't know if this fierce general will choose to kill himself because he is ashamed of the king.
Of course, even if Rod knew, he would not say that Rod respected these soldiers who went into battle to kill the enemy and defend their homeland.
For Barnett's indifference, Rhodes is also idle, not to mention that he still has to conserve his physical strength, this world is still too dangerous for him as the 'enemy of the people', and His Royal Highness the prince's body is too weak, I really don't know how lazy it is to make him tired and out of breath after running a few kilometers, thinking that when he was in Heavenly Court, he ran around Heavenly Court several times, but he was just a little short of breath.
Bella and Alice were carrying towels and water, and they did not become indifferent because Rhodes had lost his reputation as prince, and as I remembered, these two young girls in their early twenties always thought things through.
Taking Bella's towel and motioning for Alice to hand the kettle to General Barnett and the other five soldiers, Alice was quite shocked by this, but also complied with Rod's wishes and handed the kettle to General Barnett first.
