The soul flames of the five soul stones slowly ignited, and as a hazy figure appeared in the sound transmission crystal, even the pretentious black thorn ray showed a humble expression, and even saluted respectfully: "Under the 'Shadow Hurricane' Black Thorn Ray, listen to the 'Five-Step God of War' holy hadith." ”

Hearing such an awkward name, before Fan Xi could say anything disrespectful, Peggy had already covered his mouth and whispered: "The general is silent, that is the 'Five-Step God of War' Demon Night Shadow, one of the 'Seven Sages of Darkness'. ”

I didn't expect this Heather Fort to alarm the "Dark Seven Sages" to ask in person. Is there any secret hidden in this place?

A young voice came from the crystal, "Black Thorn Ray, you can't even take Heather Castle, it's unreasonable." ”

The black thorn ray was dripping with cold sweat, "I was incompetent under and despised my opponent." ”

The young voice seemed to be indifferent, "How can you be incompetent, you might as well tell me the truth: are those pirate leaders squeezing you out again?" ”

The black thorn ray is silent, and sometimes silence is the best answer.

The young voice said regretfully: "It's a pity, Ironbeard's death was unknown, and although his daughter Martiel, she was too young after all, and she was fooled by the first mate called Hailong. ”

The black thorn ray said cautiously: "The first mate of the sea dragon is steady, and he is currently guarding Chishuiwan. ”

"Hahaha." The young voice laughed and said, "Guarding Chishui Bay? The secret weapon hasn't been delivered there yet, and he needs to guard Chishui Bay? How many people did this waste bring over there? ”

The black thorn ray said, "Five thousand." ”

The young voice sneered: "Out of a total of more than 10,000 people, he took 5,000." How many defenders did you leave behind after you captured the 'Wanghai Cliff'? ”

The black thorn ray said: "A thousand." ”

The young voice "tsk" a few times, "You are going to occupy the oasis with four thousand men and attack the Heather Castle again?" ”

The black thorn ray said, "Do your best." ”

The young voice was silent for a moment, and then suddenly asked again, "Has Hei Yimeng already gone to the Crown Mausoleum?" ”

The black thorn ray said, "Yes. The 'Thousand-Faced Enchantress' was well handled, and she also left her disciples to cooperate with the Warlords. ”

Peggy and Fanxi thought that the black thorn ray would fall into the well at this time, but they didn't expect him to defend the "Thousand-Faced Enchantress" like this, and Fanxi quietly put back the stinky face he posed.

The young voice suddenly relaxed: "That's not bad, you might as well stick to the oasis." It won't be long before the desert heat wave arrives, and it will be too late for Martil to transport the secret weapon to Chishui Bay, and then bulldoze the heather. ”

The corners of the Black Thorn Ray's mouth showed a trace of imperceptible joy, and he still asked respectfully on his face, "I'm afraid of affecting the strategy of the Demon Lord." ”

"Why care what that guy thinks." The young voice was so arrogant, "He wasn't even sure what he would eat tomorrow, what strategy could he have." ”

In the echo of the black thorn ray, the soul flame gradually dimmed, and the crystal returned to a blank space.

.

The desert in the early morning is silent, and only when the cool morning breeze blows, there will be a slight rustling sound.

In the desert outside Heather, Nick practiced his swordsmanship alone. The long sword in his hand shimmered with vitality in the sunlight, and it seemed to remind him of the glory of being a great general.

He shook the blade of his sword and stabbed twelve times in a row. Immediately after that, the soul flame rose, and a blast of wind sword qi slashed straight out, and the boulder ten meters away was split in half with a bang.

"General Nick's 'glass slash' is really amazing." Axy walked slowly towards him with his cane.

Nick let out a long sigh of relief, "I haven't held a sword for a long time, and I'm already a lot rusty. ”

Aksai smiled: "The general is too modest, although he doesn't know swordsmanship, but I see that your sword is calm and ready to attack just now, and there is a hidden power of a thousand jun." It seems that the general has realized the essence of 'glass slashing'. ”

Nick couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "Sir is so wise that he can see it so thoroughly. ”

He thought for a moment, and suddenly asked again: "According to Mr. Na, how does this swordsmanship compare with the 'Princess of Gunfire'?" ”

Aksai coughed a few times, "Could it be that the general is worried about being her enemy?" ”

Nick nodded slightly.

Axei pondered for a moment and muttered: "The Wild Sand Empire is rotten to the roots, if you insist on serving it, I am afraid that you will become a fierce beast in the wildfire, a lonely boat in the stormy waves. ”

Nick's face was solemn.

Aksai looked at the hazy horizon between heaven and earth in the distance, and sighed: "The wisdom of the lord of the unsmiling lord is far beyond ordinary people, and the enemy is one step further, and he has already counted twenty steps behind; Princess Lydia is so strong in martial arts that even the demons are afraid of her. This kind of person is better not to be regarded as an opponent. ”

While the two were talking, a cloud of sand and dust suddenly rose in the distance. As far as the two of them could see, a mighty army was slowly approaching. Battle flags fluttered in the wind, soldiers carried their weapons, guarding the baggage in the middle in two columns, the sun shining brightly on their armor.

"Who is that?" As soon as Nick finished speaking, he felt like he had asked a stupid question.

He himself is the general of the Wild Sand Empire, so these people are not from the Demon Clan, not from the Wild Sand, and naturally they are the army of the Red Pavilion.

In front of the army were four majestic generals, one with antlers and a huge horned bow, one with an axe and hammer, and the other with an eight-handled steel fork.

Seeing them coming, a trumpet blew in the heather. Lydia led her retinue of twenty cavalry out of the city to meet her. The antler-tauched general raised his longbow, the whole army raised its arms and shouted, and the slogan of victory shook the whole desert, and circled over the heather for a long time.

Seeing such a military appearance, Nick and Axie were dumbfounded. It wasn't until Lydia brought the army into Heather that Nick came to his senses.

"Sir is right." Nick took a deep breath, "It's better not to be an opponent than a person like this. ”

.

A command room had been cleaned up in the heather, and a large table with a map was placed in the middle. Buxiao held a few nuts in his hand and moved quickly around the map.

The door gently pushed open a crack, and Lydia poked half of her head first: "Don't laugh, they're coming." ”

"Okay." Don't smile and put the nuts in your hand, "Sit." ”

Lydia opened the entire door, and a group of mermaids entered. The first to walk in were Young Man and Mira, followed by Fili and Danica.

Nick and Axy didn't expect that Buxiao would send Harold over to invite them, so they arrived in the end.

The young man first reported the current situation of the Greystone Fort: "The Greystone Fort has more than 20,000 displaced people and more than 30,000 mercenaries. ”

It's a bit surprising not to laugh: "So much? ”

The young man said with a smile, "In addition to the 'Golden Lion', there are twenty-five mercenary groups in Graystone Fort alone, and there are twenty-five thousand people in each regiment with only one thousand people. ”

Such a large number of troops frightened Nick and Axie a little, but then his words surprised them even more.

"At the request of the princess, we laid off about 20,000 people."

An army of 30,000 men is what a powerful war machine, and how many nations and lords dream of more soldiers. Lydia is going to lay off so many people, is she crazy?

Nick and Axy looked at Lydia in bewilderment.
