022 Liguang is difficult to peace
Once the wanderers were dealt with, the team gathered again.
"So what now?" Flint asked, and the others looked at the king as well. The team was used to letting the king take the idea.
Wang asked Liguang: "I was interrupted just now, and you continue to talk about the attack on the village, and there is anyone else who escapes besides you?" ”
Liguang was silent for a few seconds, although Wang couldn't read the lizardman's expression, nor did he understand people's hearts, but he still felt a sad atmosphere from him.
Liguang: "I don't know. The enemy used a yellowish-green poisonous smoke, which had a pungent smell and caused tears and coughing when inhaled, making it difficult to breathe, and in severe cases, falling to the ground and spassing.
"And the enemy uses a kind of mask, completely unaffected by this poisonous smoke. I grabbed a mask to escape. ”
As he spoke, the lizardman took out his mask and handed it to the king.
Wang carefully examined the mask: "The tiny holes on this mask are a kind of adsorption device, which can absorb the inhaled poisonous smoke particles. When we do those stenching magic experiments in our Wizard's Tower, we cover our noses and mouths with something similar. ”
He raised his head and looked at Liguang: "What you said just now, do you mean that no one escaped?" ”
At this time, Marika spoke: "I did not visit the village of the lizardmen yesterday, and I don't know the population of their village, but I counted the unburied corpses in the village, there are four hundred and forty. ”
Liguang: "Two-thirds of the population. ”
Saying that, he couldn't support the weight of his body, and knelt on his left knee on the beach: "Fuck, although the monastic precepts require us to find peace of mind, but ......"
Elizabeth silently handed out a handkerchief: "Mourning." ”
The king asked Marika, "If you have time to see the corpses, you should also have time to look at the footprints around the village, right?" Where did the people who escaped go? ”
Marika: "That's the problem, when I arrived, the rainforest had already covered some of the traces, but I was sure that no lizardmen had escaped, all the lizardman footprints were surrounded by human footprints, and I think the survivors were escorted away." ”
Liguang stood up suddenly, turned around and walked away with a resolute attitude.
Wang: "Wait a minute! Why are you going? ”
"Still ask?" The lizardmen paused and looked back slightly, "Save my people." ”
Wang: "Have you forgotten that we are also going to that ruin?" You lead the way, and together we save your people. ”
Liguang turned around: "Then what are we waiting for?" ”
"Don't be impulsive," the king waved his hand, "we need to have a plan. First of all, although the surrendered loitering provided a lot of information, it was so shoddy that we needed to conduct further reconnaissance of the enemy's headquarters. ”
He turned his head to look at Marika, "Please, I need you to follow the trail left by the enemy, touch the remains of their entrenchment, and carefully find out the situation." ”
Marika counter-argued: "I'm not here, what if you're attacked?" ”
Wang: "We'll go to the burned lizardman village, my pet still sees smoke in the village, as long as we disguise it as if the village is still burning, the enemy won't think we'll spend the night there."
"We can also set up bonfires around the village and even light trees so that wildlife doesn't come closer.
"During this time, we can try to bury the people of Liguang."
Liguang's fingers were trembling, and he said continuously: "Thank you, thank you so much." ”
Wang: "You don't have to worry about the safety of your people, the enemy has captured them in preparation for their evil experiments, and they will not be slaughtered all at once." ”
Liguang just nodded.
Wang: "We'll wait tomorrow when the reconnaissance is complete, our spells are restored, and the most important thing is that our magic items are recharged, and then we will head to the enemy's lair." ”
Liguang stared at Wang, and blinked his pupils several times: "I now kind of understand why you are the leader of the squad." ”
Elizabeth said with some pride: "Look, when he says, 'I have a plan,' the death knell of the enemy begins to sound." We've been in danger a couple of times in a row, all of them. ”
Flint: "Great adventurers have nicknames, or yours would be 'The Bell Ringer'!" ”
Wang: "Sounds like a church worker. ”
Elizabeth: "Call the planners." ”
"No, no, that's too much." The dwarf retorted, "It's still the bell ringer who is more handsome." ”
Wang: "Alright! It doesn't matter what the nickname is, get ready and go to them tomorrow to settle the score. ”
**
An hour later, the team was standing in the middle of the ruined lizardman village.
Originally, the remaining houses had no open flames, just constant smoke, but in order to deceive the enemy, the Salvation Team lit the open flames again.
Of course, this fire was very skillfully lit, and it was carefully arranged by Wang, so the group of the Salvation Team stood in the middle of the village without coughing or feeling the heat.
Elizabeth looked around: "This is the village you came to yesterday. Strange, doesn't it mean that there are a lot of mutations in the lizardmen? ”
Wang: "It was the enemy's poisoning masterpiece, and the witch doctor put a special mold in the medicine that the witch doctor applied to the wounded, and as a result, when a lizardman was injured, the witch doctor gave him medicine, and the mold would proliferate in large numbers on the wound, forming long feathers that resembled bird feathers. ”
Elizabeth: "So everything was the Order's work from the beginning?" ”
"Yes, we're really up to the Order this time."
As he spoke, he took out the dimensional bag, took out the body of the seven-ring mage he had killed at the beginning from the dimensional bag, and began to search for it.
Elizabeth: "You can't forget this, do you?" ”
"I just want to bury my opponent, and we should have the respect we deserve for our enemies." The king said unashamedly, and at the same time raised the hand of the dead man.
"Oh, there's a ring." He said, immediately taking off the ring, "It's strange, this ring doesn't have magic aura, you can tell it's not a magic item at a glance." ”
Elizabeth looked closer and said, "There is writing on the inside of the ring." Written in the lingua franca 'Wahid and Lily', combined with the finger worn, this should be an engagement ring. ”
Wang: "So it's a wedding ring?" Why would two mages get engaged with a ring with no magical powers? ”
Elizabeth: "How can you be sure it's two mages?" ”
"That's what the captives said."
After saying this, the king threw the ring to Elizabeth: "Keep a memento." ”
Elizabeth: "Why am I keeping this as a souvenir?" Forget it, I'll take it. In the future, if you meet this person named Lily, you may be able to return the ring to her. ”
Xiaobai: "Then kill her and reunite the two of them in hell!" There's nothing better than that! ”
Elizabeth: "White! You don't want that! ”
"She's right," said the king, examining the dead mage, "and this Lily may be a core cadre of the Order, in which case either we will die at her hands or she will die at our hands." ”
At this time, Liguang, who was digging a pit to bury his compatriots, suddenly said: "Of course we killed them, although I don't know what kind of order this order is, and I have nothing to do with them before, but now I want to spend the rest of my life hunting down every member of the order." ”
Xiaobai asked, "How long do you have the rest of your life?" ”
Lizardman: "Five years is always there." ”
Xiaobai: "Then you should come with us, because you don't have time to waste." ”
Liguang was silent for a few seconds, and then replied, "Save my people first, and when we really wipe out the stronghold of the Order, I will go with you!" ”
