Chapter 48: Get the map
"From the first time I saw you, I felt a strong sense of justice from you! I will definitely find out about this matter! I can't let so many innocent villagers die!" Luo Lun puffed out his chest in awe.
"But when you see the Commander, you must keep what I have just told you a secret! Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll be used by him!" Loren knew about the blockade of the outpost, and it was Commander Shumillot who asked him to order.
If the Commander tells the story during their conversation with the Commander, his lies will be exposed.
It was good that Loren didn't emphasize it, but this emphasis aroused Bell's suspicions. Although he was young, he was not a fool after all, and the events of the past few days had made his mind grow rapidly, and his vigilance was heavier than before.
"Brother Loren, you can rest assured, we are not the kind of people who betray our friends! However, the two of us are completely unfamiliar with the environment here, and I am afraid that if we go out, we will lose our way. I wonder if Brother Loren can give me a detailed map of the geography?
Luo Lun frowned, "Detailed map, I don't know what kind of detail do you want, brother? The geographical map in the outpost is divided into two types, one is a combat readiness map, and the other is an administrative map." As the name suggests, the Combat Readiness Map records war routes, passes, material storage, personnel distribution, and strategic locations. ”
"As for the administrative map, it records the trade routes, the distribution of villages, the distribution of population, the characteristics of the landforms, and the distribution of facilities in the villages. Both maps can be used for two purposes, and of course the outpost will also duplicate the map, so that in the event of a war, whatever level of commander is there, they must try to ensure that they have a detailed map of the area in question. ”
Bell nodded, he just knew that there would be a map in the command post, but he didn't expect this map to be quite exquisite. What made him even more relieved was that there would be a copy of the map, and listening to Luo Lun's tone, it seemed that there were still many copies. It's bad to give Bell beauty at the moment!
"I think we'll use both of these maps, but if you're not too bothered, it's better to take us around!" Bell looked a little lost.
Luo Lun shook his head, "It's not that I don't want to take you out, it's just that the situation at the outpost is too dangerous, and I can't keep entering and exiting the order." Of course, we can come to the watchtower during the day and I'll show you the way, which is a lot more troublesome than a map. So I'd better help you get the map, I don't have permission to do anything about the map. Unless there is an emergency, the map must be obtained through the Outpost Commander. When you see him in a moment, tell him what you want, and I'll be there to help you!"
Luo Lun didn't want to take them out to inspect, it would still be easy to expose himself, and as for the map or something, although it was a confidential document, it was not immovable. If you can't give it, can't you borrow it?
With their own careful thoughts, Bell seemed to have passed another hurdle smoothly, and the balance of fate seemed to be completely tilted on his side. After thanking Adjutant Loren, it was not too early, and it was time to go to the command post to meet Commander Schumilott.
After Shumilott came out of the banquet hall, he smashed his head into the toilet in the command post, and after vomiting wildly, the whole person seemed to have lost his soul. After eating too much and then vomiting wildly, no one's stomach can withstand such a toss.
He went back to his bedroom and changed all the clothes that had been soiled into new ones, because of the influx of food, the stomach secreted a lot more stomach acid than before, but after vomiting almost all the food he ate, the stomach acid began to torment his stomach.
The nausea and acid reflux made the commander of the outpost scratch his heart and liver, drank a lot of water, and his condition improved slightly. Remembering that he had ordered the adjutant, Shumillot had to get up from the couch and take the command room with all his might.
As soon as he arrived at the command room, Adjutant Loren brought Bell and Anelsa here, and after a few simple greetings, Shumilott repeated the recent events at the outpost, but it was a little different from what Loren said.
It probably means that the empire is facing the threat of spies, and the outpost is now going all out to encircle and suppress the spies, coupled with the bandit attack on the quarantine site a few days ago, the entire outpost is relatively empty.
Now that the spies have blended into the crowd, the outposts have blocked the passes, but they are still unable to catch them. Because there are a lot of dense forests around the Vizko outpost, the outpost soldiers have very limited ability to deal with it. Therefore, the outpost is in urgent need of personnel who have martial arts and have some experience in Orion or can adapt to the pursuit of dense forests.
Shumilott hoped that Bell could provide him with some support in this regard, and as for An'esha, because of the emptiness of the outpost, there were many security risks in the city. In the case of the quarantine post, the outpost also needs a non-commissioned officer who is primarily responsible for security.
He felt that Anelsa was fully qualified for the job, because his body was really weak, and he felt nauseous and uncomfortable, and the commander Shumilott did not go into details. But he emphasized the importance of An Elsa staying at the outpost! Of course, in addition to his knowledge, Adjutant Luo Lun also knew this reason!
The reason why he didn't reveal this hobby of Schumilott to the two in advance on the watchtower was to stand up and be a good man after Schumilott proposed it.
Commander Shumilott had probably finished speaking all the things when he felt his eyes very dry and a sense of sleepiness came over him. He wanted to end the topic quickly, so he told the two of them directly, no matter what they wanted, they would just tell Adjutant Loren! Whether it was money or shelter, weapons or medicines, even if they wanted it with Adjutant Loren.
When he heard that Bell wanted to get a detailed map of the outpost, Shumilott hesitated for a moment, but there was nothing he could do about it. Unless you go back to sleep and get some rest.
In the end, the fatigue of spirit and ** overcame his ethics as a commander, and Bell and Anesa also successfully got the two maps!
How Shumilott got back to his bedroom from the command room, and what happened after that, no one cared. Carrying a sheepskin map, Bell wanted to fly out of the outpost immediately and go to various villages to find out if there were any more survivors.
Adjutant Loren was very lucky, Schumilyott was not in good shape, and he simply talked to Bell about the problem, and he went back. Bell had heard Shumilott's version, and it was not quite what he understood, and it was not what Loren said, and this Shumillot did not say any useful news.
At the moment, it is not known who the liar is, and there is no way for Bell and Anesa to communicate about it immediately. Loren offered to let the two stay at the outpost tonight, but Bell excused himself on the pretext that he had made an appointment with the inn to visit the springs.
Now that the map is in hand, what are you going to do here?!
Luo Ren's goal has basically been achieved, and he is not continuing to keep the two of them at the moment, after all, there may be some chaos if he stays here. It's also quite safe to stay in an inn!And he Loren has another idea, that is, tonight, while the commander is not in good shape, he may be able to obtain more conclusive evidence, or even forge!
When Bell and Annesha waved goodbye to him at the door of the inn, Loren finally stepped into the trap that had been laid for him!
