Chapter 758: Edward's Doubts

"Lord Duke! The griffon team had searched all the way to the town on the other side, but they hadn't found Lord Gervais! ”

"Have you searched the area near the road, and have you found any traces of battle on the road?"

Edward sat in the makeshift tent, listening to his subordinates' reports and asking questions in a deep voice.

"Lord Hui, my subordinates brought two squads with a total of twenty people to search, and they didn't find anything along the way!"

"Along the road, the subordinates and others within a radius of about thirty miles have all flown to the bottom and searched carefully, there is no figure of the city lord of Gervais, and there is no trace of any battle!"

The subordinate immediately replied in detail.

"Then you go down first!"

After hearing this, Edward silently dismissed the subordinate who had come to report.

"Yes, Lord Duke! Subordinates retire! ”

When the griffin knight left, the makeshift chamber fell silent.

At this time, in addition to Edward, there were four or five city lords sitting on both sides of the council tent, all of whom were the closest to Gervais in their alliance.

"Duke Johnson, were you sure Gervais was taking that route that day?"

Edward was silent for a moment, then looked at Johnson and Bruno before asking.

"Yes, at that time, we were separated from the city lord of Gervais at the predetermined intersection, and we also agreed with the city lord of Gervais that our support would arrive in a week at most! Let him not be in a hurry! ”

"Moreover, the progress of our siege this time is quite smooth, four days later, we sent men to support the city lord of Gervais, when we arrived at this shore, although the bridge has been destroyed, but we still sent dozens of aerial demonic beasts to the other side, but we did not find any trace of the city lord of Gervais!"

Johnson listened to Edward's words and was pretty sure there was nothing wrong with Gervais's course.

At that time, Gervais also told him the estimated travel time, although that road was only taken by Gervais alone, but the route was straight, so there was no need to worry about getting lost.

However, when their reinforcements arrived as promised, they found no trace of Gervais and his party.

To say that there was an accident, but they also sent a few aerial demonic beasts of themselves and others to search, and they did not find any traces of battle.

The battlefield of more than 500 people, even if it is cleaned up, there will be traces of blood, or traces of corpses being buried or burned.

After a tentative day of searching, and finding no trace of Gervais, they immediately reported the situation to Edward, who himself came with the griffin knights.

"And where else can he go? More than 500 people can't just disappear quietly! ”

Edward also felt a little tricky after hearing this, although Gervais's overall strength is not strong, his personal strength is not weak, and there is really no reason to disappear like this.

Gervais is the most potential of their allies, and he has a good relationship with Sky City, and now he suddenly disappeared and couldn't find anyone, which is a big change for them.

"Duke Edward, will the Lord of Gervais go ahead!"

At this time? Bruno, who had not spoken, looked at the map and spoke.

"Going ahead?"

Edward heard the frowning and looked at the map? He thought for a moment before he spoke, "Maybe it's possible." ”

If you think about it, this is the only possibility that is enough to explain, although it doesn't make sense? After all, haven't explored anything ahead? Gervais's chosen target is also the small city on the other side, so why should he go it alone?

But now you've searched all the way? None of Gervais was found, so there was only this explanation!

"Lord Duke? Urgent debriefing! ”

And at this time? Outside the tent, the sound of a soldier's report suddenly sounded.

"Come in!"

Edward spoke immediately.

"Lord Duke, I just got the news that the descendants of the divine servants of the God of War of Osqua have gathered 50,000 people to fight back, and they also have hundreds of flying demonic beasts!"

Soldiers outside the tent heard permission? Hurrying into the tent? Immediately half-kneeling on the ground and reporting to Edward.

"It's been assembled so soon!"

Edward's brow furrowed slightly when he heard the soldier's report.

The other Holy City City Lords were also in their hearts at this time, this Godfall Land was different from the outside, and the natives could be said to have taken advantage of the time and place, so they didn't have to worry about the consumption of fighting energy at all? Directly assembling an army of 50,000 is a formidable force.

If they don't hold this wave, then the next situation will be in trouble.

"Gervais's matter can only come first for the time being! Now all of you are leading your troops to assemble towards the city of Saint-Coaux! ”

Edward didn't hesitate now? He commanded to the city lords.

The god of war is the main god believed by the descendants of Edward's servants in this region.

In this Godfall, a large city represents a power of different descendants of the gods.

A few days ago, Edward and others were menacing? Directly defeated the servants of Osque, and their big city of Osqua was captured by Edward in a few days.

And the chief priest in this city led away a large number of divine servant guards? Originally, Edward was going to immediately gather his troops and continue the pursuit.

Unexpectedly, at this time, I got the news of Gervais's disappearance? He then rushed over with a team of griffons to check on the situation.

Now the servants of Osqua have gathered a lot of soldiers and horses? This is ready to fight back, and they must rush back.

And that Shengke City is the city where they currently occupy the front line, and when the time comes, more than a dozen holy cities will merge together and advance together according to the plan agreed at the beginning, exterminating or driving out the natives in this area.

"Yes, Duke Edward!"

When the other Holy City City Lords heard this, they didn't have any opinions, and immediately responded.

"Okay, let's disperse then!"

Edward nodded to the city lords.

Then, the city lords got up and walked out of the tent, while Johnson and Bruno hesitated.

"I'll leave a few griffon knights in charge of going ahead, you don't have to worry!"

Edward naturally won't ignore Gervais, but now that the war is tight, the overall situation is at stake, so he can only leave a few people to continue the search to see if he can find Gervais.

Hearing this, Johnson and Johnson didn't say anything more, nodded at Edward and quickly got out of the tent to gather troops and horses.

……

After a night of silence, Gervais got out of bed the next morning.

"Huh! It turned out that the waist is not sore, and the legs are not painful! ”

Gervais got up when he immediately noticed something strange about his body.

In the past, after using the strength enhancement fruit, I would fall into a three-day weakening period anyway, and although it was not as serious as the original few times, the side effects were definitely still there.

But when he got up today, he didn't feel any side effects and soreness, but felt that his whole body was in surprisingly good condition.

"Is it because of the Fountain of Life?"

Suddenly, Gervais remembered the scene of yesterday's visible healing of his scars, and thought of this possibility.
