Chapter 226: Exploring the Ruins 1
Wolf's Tooth Fort has a geographical advantage, and with the Golem Guard, it is almost invincible, and it will not lose if it uses speed to fight like Chesterton did before, but if it cannot break the enemy for a period of time on the battlefield, it will lose.
The silver-level psionic knights basically represent the relatively high-end level of combat power in the war, and the leaders of some giant forces are almost all bigwigs above them, and they will hardly appear in such dangerous situations.
The few silver levels he encountered, Larry and Howard are all veterans, and their combat power is declining, unlike young people who are in the rising period, and their value has plummeted, even so, if they are not willing to fight to the death, they can retreat at any time and will not be forcibly asked to be in danger.
Both himself and Chesterton have their own reasons, so they regard the battlefield as a place of testing for their own training, otherwise they can find a big force as a guest and the like.
The gold-level words are really beautiful, maybe the Richard knight may be involved, but Ed didn't have a chance to learn more about it.
After the aftermath of the feast, the guests and guests dispersed, and Ed settled down for a moment to receive the host's hospitality, and the next day the two sides met to formally discuss the official topic of the war.
After the previous process of probing, both of them have a general understanding of each other's strength, Ed proved that he has the ability to drive away the Ingers as rumored, and the Grand Duke also told the Roland people that the Wolf's Tooth Castle is not easy to mess with, and any enemy who wants to break through will have to spend a lot of effort.
"My lord, what's the situation? Could it be that guy is asking for something excessive, and I really can't do anything about that four-armed monster?" Chesterton asked in a whisper when he saw Ed walking out, frowning as he stepped forward.
The boy waved his hand, motioning for the other party to go down with him before talking, just when he and Philip III were alone in the council chamber. The other party made a strange condition, as long as Ed could satisfy him, the Grand Duke would officially declare that he would break away from all relations with Ingill, return to Roland's arms, nominally emphasize his loyalty to King Charles, and support a lot of manpower and material resources to help restore the people's livelihood in the occupied area.
The other party listed a series of clauses. Each one taken out individually will be of great benefit to Roland, and if all the policies are really implemented, Ed is sure to bring Delia's goal closer by a big step.
However, the public request was very strange, and it did not implicate anyone else in the slightest, as long as Ed helped him do something, "Of course, I will not let you do anything to harm your interests, just participate in an expedition organized by me, led by the knight of Barlogo." The destination is a ruin located in my territory, and all of the above rules will be officially executed after the mission is over. ”
The Grand Duke said this, with a smile on his face without the slightest sign of harm, "Of course, you have to inform the king of your country about this matter, Ed, you can use our intelligence system to send the news back immediately, and then decide whether to participate or not after getting a reply from the rear, but please hurry up!"
Don't think about it. Ed knew the king would agree, no matter how difficult the mission was. He would also rather sacrifice himself to complete the country, and the person who the young man really wanted to hear was Di Liya, so the information sent was sent out in two parts.
While waiting for an answer, Ed was still treated with great dignity, and the whole castle treated him as a guest of honor, giving him the most attentive service at every turn. It made him uncomfortable.
Chesterton couldn't bear the loneliness and asked for a few more competitions, but the subject was changed from a golem to a real knight, and the other two brothers of Barlogo had appeared and fought against each other.
Eric, who is good at long-range attacks, didn't show anything unusual when he saw Ed, and seemed to be recovering well. But he wasn't as aggressive as before, and after a little probing with Chesterton, he readily admitted that he might not be an opponent, and that an archer like him was very dangerous to be approached by a berserker warrior without a coverer.
Ed is impressed with him now, it seems that he was taught a lesson by Shiryl last time, and the whole person has grown a lot, and it is inconvenient for him to do it as a distinguished guest, so he can only regretfully give up the opportunity to be ashamed.
Another knight with a huge shield, Olaf, was forced to enter the game after retreating a few times, and became the guy who fought the most with Chesterton, beating him The latter can let go and attack with all his might, without thinking too much about defense, although it is difficult to break through the opponent's tight turtle shell defense, but it is very enjoyable.
When the two were fighting, Ed pulled Barloggo to ask for more information about the expedition, which was a very famous ancient ruin in Burgundy, where many warriors had organized explorations, and there were mercenaries who were not afraid of death who had entered with dreams of getting rich overnight, but most of them had limited gains.
"In fact, the ruins that are really exposed to people's vision are only the first layer, and the passage down is blocked by boulders, and there is no way to enter, but after the Grand Duke took power, he was very interested in this place, and sent people to stay there for many years and dug a secret passage directly to the inner layer, our task is to collect the relevant information inside, not to hunt for treasure, as long as the valuable information is in hand, you can retreat, if you are lucky, you don't even have to fight, so Ed Knight, you can directly promise the Grand Duke!"
"So we're the first to enter?" Ed didn't think there was no danger in this situation.
Surprisingly, Barlogo denied his words, "No, I've been in once before, but not too deeply, and before us, there have been other people who have been invited in!" As if recalling the past, Barlogo's face became a little gloomy, and at this time, the two people who had fought in the field had decided the winner, and he took the opportunity to leave, obviously unwilling to talk about it.
Ed's heart was full of doubts, if it was really like what the other party said, this ruin should be very famous, and it was not difficult to find out about the relevant information, but no one in the castle could answer for him.
Chesterton was covered in sweat, and after meeting with Ed, he couldn't stop talking about his battle just now, looking very hearty, for Ed's question, he recalled for a long time, and only remembered limited information.
"If there is any famous relic in Burgundy, I only know of one place, the Throne of the Giant, which was famous when I was a child, and for some reason, it seems that someone found a huge weapon there, larger than the original great axe in my hand!" Chesterton gestured, the battle axe he was using had already broken and he was overwhelmed, and he swung it twice to depict the appearance of a giant weapon, and the debris flew directly in the air, and was quickly thrown aside by him.
