5. Rose Gaze Chapter 223 Defeat
Carl and the others ran for two or three hours in a row before they turned into a mountain col, walked up the mountain path for a while, and arrived at a village where barbarians lived.
Only some old people in the village settled in tree hollows, and they lived daily by fishing and hunting. Seeing the Karl army coming, they were not afraid, and sat on the tree and asked loudly, "Are you from Ice Wolf Castle?" ”
After so many changes, Karl finally learned a little cautious and sent a small soldier to ask: "We are the warriors of Ice Wolf Castle, what is this place?" ”
Several old men in the treetops laughed, "The warriors of Ice Wolf Castle also dare to come here, remember, this place used to be the 'Korsun Tribe'." The Red Pavilion Divine Soldiers defeated the evil Elder here, and those guys are still being burned at the stake on the altar. ”
Karl was displeased and ordered arrows to be shot at them. Unexpectedly, although those old people were old, their bodies were very flexible, and they seemed to be more agile than monkeys when they shuttled back and forth in the treetops, and their bows and arrows could not shoot them at all.
"These kids want to see what they're really capable of." An old man flashed a steel fork from behind his back, raised his hand and shouted, "Neck!" ”
The neck of a soldier here was immediately pierced by a steel fork!
A few other old people laughed, "What kind of ability is such a thick neck?" Look at me: Eyes! ”
As he laughed, the steel fork flew in and stabbed another soldier to death on the spot.
Carl and the others had never seen such a strange way of fighting: the steel forks of those old men were like spearfish, and they came and went. In the blink of an eye, seven or eight soldiers had already been put to the ground by the steel forks, and Karl couldn't help but panic, and hurriedly turned around and left.
But as soon as he turned around, he felt a stinging pain in his back.
A steel fork shot through his back!
Amber was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to support him: "Carl, you can't die!" ”
Karl's lips curled, his breath was slight, and he seemed to want to say something, but suddenly there were bursts of military drums in the surrounding forest, and the large army of the Red Pavilion had already caught up, as if they had already regarded them as turtles in an urn.
Alan hurriedly ordered the Guards to surround Carl in the middle, and struggled to break through the encirclement, fighting out most of the Guards, and fighting his way out.
The pursuers of the Red Pavilion behind him shouted loudly: "The one who wears the crown is Carl, and there is a reward for catching it!" ”
Amber had a flash of inspiration, and quickly took Karl's crown and threw it to one of the guards, ordering him to lead thirty men to flee eastward. She and Alan continued to flee south with their men.
This simple trick saved Carl's life.
You must know that the soldiers of the Red Pavilion didn't recognize Carl at all, and suddenly saw dozens of people surrounding a guy wearing a crown, and immediately chased after him without thinking.
The guard with the crown on his head panicked, and in his haste escaped, he was stumbled by the stumbling horse in the forest. The soldiers of the Red Pavilion rushed up, and immediately tied up the guards, hung them on the barrel of their guns like prey, and carried them to Lydia's side to ask for merit.
Lydia was laughing and crying by them. It's clear: this guy is not only wearing the armor of the guard, but even the crown is worn backwards. Although Carl was not caught, Lydia gave some reward to comfort the lost soldiers.
……
At the same time, Alan and Amber ran wildly for another two hours before they broke out of the encirclement. Finally, there was no sound of chasing soldiers in the back, and I was relieved.
Looking at Carl's appearance again, although he was seriously injured and was already unconscious, fortunately he was strong and did not hurt fatally, Amber hurriedly ordered someone to bandage and treat him.
Alan counted the soldiers and horses, and the ice wolf warriors and private soldiers were all lost, and even the two hundred guards were only eighty left. Recalling the pride of taking 30,000 people into the Scarlet Leaf Forest with a high spirit, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.
At the moment, there are no soldiers, there are no generals, and Carl is unconscious, and the only way at the moment is to withdraw to the Snow Dance level as soon as possible.
.
In the cavern that Rose stared at, in the dark clouds, on the four high platforms, the Council of Four had learned of Karl's defeat.
"This is the 'Chosen One' you have chosen?" The arrogant voice sneered, "It's just that he didn't win the 'Refining Remnant Chapter', and only ninety or so of the 30,000 people went out, and I was embarrassed to say that he had evolved into a human being." ”
A cold voice sounded beside him: "Dina is right, if you hadn't stopped me, I would have only sent two hundred demonic beasts, and I would have taken the 'remnant' long ago." ”
"Chief Dinah, Chief Jane, please calm your anger." Under the high platform, a humble woman knelt on the ground, "The chief of my family seems to have something to say." ”
Dinah's arrogant voice became even more scathing, "Clara, if you even have to let your disciples do the work for you, it would be better for you to give up the position of the head of the 'Blood Moon Sect' to someone else." ”
"Really...... Am I a piece of shit...... I'm so useless...... I ......" came a trembling voice from the fourth platform.
"Dinah, what are you listening to her?" Jane said coldly, "Wendy, as is customary, you can do it for her." ”
Wendy knelt on the ground and nodded cautiously, "Our chief has already researched a new refining formula, and we can already approximate the effect of the 'refining remnant'. ”
"It seems that the fragments are not too important anymore?" Jane sneered, "It seems that we wasted a lot of resources on that guy named 'Carl'?" ”
"You know what." Gao Tai, who had not spoken all this time, shot back briefly.
Jane said disdainfully: "Helen, use Karl's move, but you are in charge, of course you will not admit your stupidity." ”
Helen said faintly, "This is the plan I made with Dinah, and letting him find the refining remnants is just a sweetness, and it doesn't matter at all. ”
Jane sighed and said the opposite: "Yes, then you are really a little clever ghost, what kind of big chess are you playing behind your back, you might as well talk about it." ”
Helen was so excited by her that she wanted to speak, but she heard Dinah scold: "You two, don't delay the plan. ”
Dinah's words were finalized, and Simple, Helen, Clara, and Wendy were all silent.
After a moment of silence, Dinah said firmly, "Remember, Rose gaze, will see the light of day again." ”
.
The town of Manniu is bustling with activity.
Hearing that Lydia's army had taken nearly 20,000 prisoners at once, the townsfolk could not sit still and came to the streets to welcome the army's triumphant return.
The celebration banquet was held for a day and a night, and people carnivaled and drank in the square, singing and dancing. It's just that whenever this kind of joy is always gone, there is no laughter.
"Joy is relaxation, and relaxation leads to accidents." After he finished speaking, he locked himself in the council hall, not knowing what he was deducing. Only occasionally I heard him say one word: "Rose gaze." ”
After much thought, Lydia finally decided to go to the quarry to meet her "rival in love".
When she arrived at Hei Ningxue's cell, she had just finished being whipped.
"Didn't you really come to see my jokes?" Hei Ningxue lay on the bed and wiped her tears.
Lydia shrugged, "I can't remember the days you were tortured. ”
Hei Ningxue rolled her eyes, "Your Royal Highness the Princess, what are you doing with your deignation to this dilapidated cell?" Could it be that he is here to check the injury? ”
"Inquire about the Rose Gaze." Lydia is also not good at detouring, "According to common sense, we have repelled Karl's army, and if we don't laugh, we should have a truce." But he seems to want to keep fighting......"
Hei Ningxue couldn't care about the pain on her body, and she was already jumping up like a carp. She grabbed Lydia's shoulders with both hands, her eyes full of adoration, "You defeated Karl's army?!" ”
"I guess so." Lydia pretended to be calm and said, "Twenty thousand prisoners were taken......
"He is indeed a god." Hei Ningxue cheered, "Great God, great! Wendy, can you see that? God is on our side! ”
She's not going crazy.
Lydia took a few steps back, intending to have the guards tie up the dancing creature.
Hei Ningxue jumped for a moment, the excitement in her brain finally ebbed, and the pain in her flesh once again overwhelmed everything. "Ah......h
"You...... You okay? Lydia asked cautiously.
Hei Ningxue looked at her miserably, "I'm sorry, I'm a little excited. What did you just say? ”
"Why don't you laugh and still want to fight." Lydia said, "You're smarter than I am, maybe you can tell me the answer." ”
Hei Ningxue said: "I actually told you, but you didn't pay attention to it, or you didn't care. ”
Lydia asked, "Really?" I'm sorry, but could you please open your mouth again? ”
Hei Ningxue said sadly, "Is the fierce princess threatening me, a weak prisoner who has no ability to resist, I am really a thin face." ”
"I'm ......," Lydia clenched her fists secretly, "you've got a lot of drama. ”
"Okay, okay, then I won't play with you." Hei Ningxue said solemnly, "I remember mentioning that Lady Isar was tortured and finally had to say the refining method of the 'Blood Moon Ritual'. ”
Lydia nodded, "Yes, since then, Tiandu has continued to use the 'Blood Moon Ritual' to refine the traverser into a demon race. I already know that. ”
Hei Ningxue slowed down her speech, "So what do you think Lady Isar is doing during the time when Lady Isar was captured and when the sky fell?" ”
Lydia thought for a moment, "Trying to rescue her?" ”
Hei Ningxue sneered: "The group of powerless people in the Tiandu Research Institute have no ability to rescue. ”
"That'...... Is it cooperating with the demons to do research? Lydia asked.
"There are always traitors whenever and wherever they are." Hei Ningxue said, "Most of the disciples were arrested and sent to the lowest level of the prison, where they were tortured all day long. One of her four best disciples, Clara, defected to the Demon Clan and helped complete the 'Blood Moon Ritual'. ”
Hei Ningxue quickly added: "But she pretended to rebel, and after gaining the trust of the Demon Lord, she released the other three disciples: Dinah, Jane, and Helen. The day before the crash, the four of them led a large number of researchers in escape boats to escape from Tiandu. ”
"That's pretty thrilling." Lydia patted her heart, "So how many of them are the heart of Rose Gaze?" ”
"Not bad." "Later, they founded the organization 'Rose Gaze'. They became the core of the leaders of the organization, also known as the 'Council of Four'. ”
"Oh~" Lydia made a voice of sudden realization, but soon she realized that she didn't realize anything: "Wait, you don't seem to tell me why you don't laugh and fight." ”
