Chapter 23 Sabre-rattling

"There's something wrong up front. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info" In the team of dragon awakeners behind Elaine's people, Long Qiqi looked at the suddenly tense situation in front of her, and frowned slightly, "There is no reason for the situation, I know that Cassadine, although he is not very popular in the military department, but he is an imperial major after all, and with him, there will be no problem." ā€

These days, due to Elaine's disguise of her appearance, Long Qiqi has not been able to recognize the hostess of Earth Street, only Cassadine.

Li, who was on the side, hugged her arms and said softly: "Vasily has gone to the front to see the situation, wait for him to come back and see what to say." ā€

"Yes. ā€

It didn't take long to see Vasily coming back in a hurry, with a very complicated expression on his face, some surprised, some puzzled, and a little annoyed and indignant.

"What's wrong?" asked Long Qiqi urgently.

Rei also stared at Vasily closely, she knew Vasily better than Long Qiqi, and knew that such an expression on this man's face meant that the situation was really not very good.

"How can I say it......" Vasily took a breath and sorted out his thoughts before he said slowly, "First of all, it turns out that the person who saved us this time was Master Cole of Earth Street. ā€

Li didn't react when she heard this, but Long Qiqi let out a low sigh in surprise, as the granddaughter of General Long, she had naturally heard the name of Master Cole of Earth Street.

In the simplest terms, Master Cole's position in the South was no less than that of the most senior colonels in the military department, and he belonged to the most powerful people below the generals.

These days, Elaine and Cole have consciously kept a low profile, basically not in contact with the Dragon Awakeners, and all conductors have Cassadine and Green Eyes to do it for them, so that Long Qiqi doesn't know the identities of the two.

"If it's Master Cole, it won't be a problem. Long Qiqi looked at Vasily, and then raised his eyes to the Rulin archers on the city wall, "Under normal circumstances, when Master Cole is in person, the person in charge of this kind of war zone will open the city gate to greet him." Although Master Cole has always been reluctant to accept the military rank conferred by the military department, he has the title of honorary officer, and has no real power as a school officer, but he enjoys all the treatment of colonel. ā€

Vasily smiled bitterly, "I don't know how powerful this Kohl master is. The problem now is that the general of the defending army said that the condition of Earth Street is not very good, and he is being investigated by the military department, so he is very distrustful of Master Cole of Earth Street. Sending archers is also because of this. ā€

Long Qiqi and Li glanced at each other, and they were both silent.

Vasily's words were quite tactful, using only the word "distrust", but if it was just distrust, where was the use of such saber-rattling?

And, Earth Street is being investigated? What's going on? What happened to the Empire during the days when his group was trapped in the North?

You must know that the status of Earth Street in the south has been looming above the forest clan, especially after Elaine's return.

The military department investigates Earth Street, and Long Qiqi can imagine how much turmoil this is.

"So, what is the reason?" Long Qiqi asked dryly, "What is the reason why Earth Street is being investigated by the military department, and it is at such a critical juncture when the second war between the North and the South begins?"

"The claim I heard was: because Earth Street was suspected of helping the imperial suspect Caesar to commit treason......" Vasily said.

Before he could finish his words, he heard Long Qiqi scream.

Vasily and Lido looked at Long Qiqi strangely, and along the way, the young girl showed strength and calmness that did not match her age.

In my impression, Long Qiqi has never been so out of shape.

Long Qiqi now feels that her brain is very confused, the suspect Caesar treason, the suspect Caesar treason, this statement echoes in her ears over and over again.

Caesar and General Lan had a complete falling out, and then were rescued by Russell, when Long Qiqi and others were trapped in the north, so Long Qiqi didn't know anything about it.

Long Qiqi subconsciously turned her head, wanting to look at the boy who had helped the team many times along the way, and see what he had to say.

But at this time, Long Qiqi realized that the young man who had been standing silently with him and Li, who still didn't know his name, had disappeared at some point.

......

......

Outside the gates of the war zone.

Many archers drew their bows and arrows and aimed their arrows at Elaine, Cole, Cassadine, and Green-Eyes under the walls of the war zone, and as soon as the sergeant's raised palm fell, all the archers would fire their arrows together.

You can see the material and style of the archer's warbow, which is the latest style that combines the traditional warbow of the empire and the longbow of the forest clan, combining power and range.

The arrows on the bowstring are not unrecognizable, and the material is relatively ordinary, but if you look closely, you will see that there is a faint green color on the arrow.

These are all deadly poisoned arrows quenched with poison!

"Do you understand what you're doing now?" Cassadine's face turned pale, and he stared at the sergeant on the city wall, his fingers flicking slightly.

He is already on the verge of breaking out, although as an imperial major, he has been suppressed a lot on weekdays, but it is the first time that he has been pointed at by his own people with arrows like this.

If according to Cassadine's own temperament, he might just rush up without saying a word, no matter how many poisoned arrows he has, a sergeant dares to do this to himself, then let him understand what is the difference between high and low ranks!

The green eyes gripped Cassadine's hand tightly, allowing Cassadine to retain the last calmness in his heart.

Master Cole on the side didn't say anything, and secretly asked Elaine for instructions with his eyes, but seeing Elaine's face was also a little confused and a little shocked, he bit his lip and didn't speak.

Cole sighed, knowing that he couldn't do it if he didn't speak, the old man raised his eyes to look at the young sergeant, and said slowly: "Earth Street has always been headed by the military department, young man, is there any misunderstanding in the middle." ā€

The sergeant sneered: "There is no misunderstanding, do you want me to show you the investigation order? You still have eight seconds." ā€

No matter how good Kohl's temper was, he couldn't stand such a blunt and domineering attitude, so he lowered his voice and said: "Young man, it's better to stay on the front line in everything, what about the person in charge of your war zone? Let him come out to see me." ā€

The sergeant said lightly: "The person in charge will come later, I don't need you to say this, but I can guarantee that if you don't make it clear before the person in charge comes, you won't have a chance later." It's harder for my family to speak than I am. You have four seconds left. ā€

Cassadine broke away from the green-eyed hand at this time, and said with a wild laugh: "Very good, very good, I haven't seen such an arrogant imp as you for a long time! We ****** worked hard to go deep into the battle dynasty to rescue the captured dragon awakens in our country, and this is how we will be treated after we come back?!"

The corner of the sergeant's mouth curled, and he sneered and said, "If you are not mistaken, there are not only wind and thunder mages in this team, but there are also two battle mages, right?"

As he spoke, his gaze swept to the captured Barbara and the Mastiff, "How do I know that you are not in collusion with the battle mages to come and conquer this war zone?" )
