Chapter 136: A game within a game

"After the success of the metal rose prototype experiment, the Imperial City launched a national effort to produce thousands of metal roses in a short period of time. Not far ahead, you're trying to attack Hero Town, with a host of metal rose weapons hidden on the outskirts of the town, waiting for you to slip into your pocket. If you still decide to attack Hero Town, I suggest you take a detour to the east of the town and attack it from the east. The eastern defense line was the weakest, because the terrain was difficult and the Rose weapons were the least deployed there. ”

"Lady Enchantress, you said that the defense on the east side is weak and easy to attack, have you personally seen the deployment there?" Okazawa acted as a staff officer on the side and asked, "Did anyone over there know that you went there to watch the defense?" ”

Okazawa's question is quite sensitive, and when this question is answered, the jellyfish Enchantress's micro-expression will be one of the evidence that Akentero, who is good at mind reading, can distinguish between true and false information. It's a treacherous question that only a treacherous person can ask.

"If you don't believe me, you can try it from the direction you are now." Jellyfish Enchantress shouted at the somewhat arrogant Okazawa.

"Okazawa, don't be so suspicious." "The plan to attack Heroes' Town cannot be changed, and we don't have enough logistical supplies. If we hadn't taken this risk, we wouldn't have survived the assault on another town farther away. So I decided to attack Hero Town from the east by taking a detour to the east of the town at the suggestion of the Jellyfish Enchantress. ”

"Lord Arcantero, I propose that I first send a group of white-spotted sea snakes to sneak around Hero Town to explore the reality and make a specific plan, what do you think?" Okazawa said.

This proposal made Acantero feel justified. Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is the philosophy of war, and only when there is enough information can the battle situation be optimistic.

"Well, agree to your proposal, and you can summon the sea serpent to do this. I believe that the results of your reconnaissance are as the jellyfish enchantress said. ”

"Yes, I'll do it right away." Okazawa turned and left the conference room.

Feeling that the atmosphere of the meeting is over, the jellyfish Enchantress proposes to Akentero to take her daughters Lingji and Kiki.

"Of course." Without hesitation, Akentero agreed: "I'll take you to pick up the two girls myself, you are not familiar with the terrain and route of the fortress." ”

Acro led the jellyfish enchantress one after the other into the passage deep inside the fortress. Jellyfish Enchantress was a little worried, would Acantero believe all the information she provided? With what he knew about him, his reaction today was a bit unusual. Is he worrying too much, will he really let himself take away the two girls later? Do I need to watch out for him?

While walking, Acantero stopped in front of a door. Turning back to the enchantress, he said, "After this door and the corridor, turn left and you will go to their room, you can go and pick them up yourself, I will wait for you here." ”

Faced with the somewhat strange door and the surprisingly flat ground inside it, the Enchantress didn't raise much alarm. She strolled through the door, only to hear movement faintly beneath the flat ground. When she realizes that something is wrong, the floor under her feet suddenly collapses, and she falls into the deep trap below. He didn't even have time to scold Akentero for being a liar, so he was secretly imprisoned.

Linghime, a jellyfish who was waiting for her mother to return in her room, was suddenly taken aback. Seeing this, Kiki on the side asked:

"What's wrong! Lingji. ”

"Something happened to my mother!" Lingji became uneasy.

"How do you know?"

"When I was with my mother in the past, I used to make an appointment with each other, and when I suspected that something would happen and we were not together, I let each other's pets stay together. When something happens, let the fate pet act as a transit medium for synaesthesia connection. Now I know that my mother's lion's mane jellyfish is sticking out its thorns to pierce my lantern jellyfish, which is a signal for help. ”

Lingji was a little relieved and was about to turn around and go out, but was pulled by Kiki:

"Lingji, don't be impulsive. You have to make a plan first! ”

"My mother was trapped after going to see Akentero, it must have been Akentero's doing, shouldn't I ask him for an explanation?"

"Believe me, my Kenken mom has been trapped for so long, and I want to save people too. But Acantero can't fight hard against him, and there is no chance of winning by hard fighting. ”

"So what should I do?" The always brave jellyfish Lingji slipped a few tears from the corners of her eyes at this moment.

"In this way, we pretend not to know to numb their vigilance. Try to find out where Aunt Enchantress is kept, and then secretly rescue her. Avoid going head-to-head with Okazawa, our actual combat ability does not prevail. ”

"So what are we going to do after that?"

"I think we should go to Akandro to find your mother first, and that's ......." The two girls bit their ears and said something.

The two girls, creeping all the way to Arcantero's office, seemed to be playing hide-and-seek without moving, as they had ever been. When they reached the door of the office, the two approached the door and tried to hear the conversation inside. Sure enough, I heard the voice of the conversation between Akentero and Okazawa inside:

"Lord Arcantero, how did you know that the jellyfish was lying? Is it mind reading? ”

"Okazawa, to be honest, the information of the Enchantress may not be all false, but some of it is true and some of it is false. I just decided to imprison her first because I couldn't sense what was true and what was false. ”

"So, my lord, can you give me a lesson or two, what do you think of the information she has provided?"

"Well, okay. First of all, the information she provided can be divided into two parts, one is the role of the metal rose, and the other is the location of the weapon. It is quite possible that the first part of the intelligence is true, and the latter part is false. ”

"Gross! Why? Okazawa asked, puzzled.

"I can feel that some whales have indeed lost contact with me during this time, and as the Jellyfish Enchantress said, they have been captured alive by a small force in the Imperial City. And after catching it, I used some kind of instrument to block the brainwave communication ability of my pet zombie worms in the whale's body, so that I couldn't contact them. The experts in the Imperial City then studied the weaknesses of the zombie bugs and determined that a certain sound could kill the zombie bugs, and then designed a metal rose-shaped sound cannon that could emit that sound. I think this information is true, but it's actually ......."

"Actually, what?" Okazawa was curious.

"Actually, they were wrong. My pets I have trained and trained them, and if they are captured alive and cannot be contacted by me, they will kill themselves. So the experts in the Imperial City would have thought that the zombie bugs died because their weapons worked, but they weren't. Hahahaha......"

"I really admire you, my lord, the Imperial City military must not know that their rose array is a pile of useless broken copper! Hahahaha......"

After laughing for a while, Acantero continued:

"As for the intelligence part of the distribution of the metal roses, I am not sure whether it is true or false. But seeing the jellyfish Enchantress's intention to leave the fortress in a hurry made me suspicious. If the information is true, we will have a better chance of winning from the east. And if it is false information, it must be that she colluded with the troops of the imperial city to lay a trap there to lure us into being fooled, so we must immediately take the jellyfish demon queen hostage. At that time, the troops stationed there in the Imperial City will definitely have some scruples. ”

"Hey, you're such a genius military strategist." Okazawa sighed.

"Hmmm! Speaking of which, you've got to watch her for me, and don't let her run away. Acantero admonished.

"Don't worry, I've put her in the strongest cell on the lower wall, and it's a waste of strength with her waist knife. So, my lord, from which direction are you planning to attack Hero Town? ”

"I want to do it. If the information is true, it will be us who wins. And if the information is false, it will make the defenders stationed there extremely desperate in the face of their ineffective weapons, and it will be us who will win. Once won, the will to fight in Hero Town will be weakened, which will greatly benefit the morale of the Imperial City's army. ”

"Gao Ming, really smart." Okazawa replied, "So when are we going to turn around and prepare to attack Hero Town?" ”

"This problem has to wait for your sea snake to find out the terrain of the battlefield before making a plan, it is estimated that it will start fighting soon."

Kiki and Lingji hid outside the door and could hear clearly, and when they felt that the meeting was over, they quietly returned to their room to think about what to do.

In the room, Lingji looked at Kiki, who had been thinking about it, a little anxiously. Finally couldn't help but ask:

"Kiki, you usually have the most ideas. Are there any plans for now? ”

"Lingji, all we can do now is wait!"

"What, what's the idea? Who can wait? ”

"Lingji, it's not about waiting for outsiders to rescue. It's when the time comes. ”

"Why?"

"If we go directly to save your mother now, we will declare war on Akentero, but we can't fight him now. The end of the future will only be that no one can run. ”

"And what kind of timing are we waiting for?"

"The Nautilus Fortress shell is so tough that if you want to save more people, you have to find a way to break some doors or walls. My plan was very daring, which was to lure those huge whales into the fortress. ”

Lingji's eyes widened and asked, "Then what are you going to do?" ”

"Isn't Akentero going to attack Hero Town from the east? At that time, he will definitely lead the whale herd in battle, so that only Okazawa will be guarding the fortress. At this time, we tried to rescue your mother first, and after rescuing your mother, the three of us worked together to control Okazawa and the fortress. Finally, the most dangerous part is the counterattack of the whales led by Acantero. It is likely that the end will be to be knocked into the fortress again by Arcantero. ”

"It seems like a crazy plan, but what if Akentero isn't fooled?" Lingji had some concerns.

Kiki didn't answer right away, and what she was thinking in her heart wasn't fully told to Lingji, because she knew that the real test was coming. Perhaps there are some things that are more meaningful to do than those who practice and are admired after a second evolution.

"Lingji, Acantero has a complex background and strong strength. What we have to do next is going to be very dangerous, because we are ready to declare war on him, and there may be no foreign help. Are you scared? ”

"You're not afraid if you haven't completed the second evolution, what am I afraid of?"

"Okay, let's get some sleep now. Pretending not to know anything, paralyzing Akentero and Okazawa. You know, we're probably going to have a fight with Okazawa later. ”

……

A life-and-death battle is coming, and both girls can't sleep on the eve of the war.

The Nautilus Fortress was also protected by the night, slowly moving towards the east of Hero Town.
