Chapter 298: The Remnant of Truth Appears (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
"Private soldiers?"
Wright's eyes widened when he heard the Elven Empress's report: "I didn't expect that Prince Michael would have such a hand.
Judging from the results of yesterday's interrogation, his son did not know about it.
Okay, this old boy, he even hid his own son.
If you want to say that he doesn't think carefully, the ghosts don't believe it. ”
"At the moment, the number of private soldiers is not too large, but they are all elite. Well-equipped, strong-willed, and strong, he can be called a dead soldier, and he has a strong ability to fight alone.
It is said that Prince Michael also hired a large number of mercenary regiments to go into the jungle to search for his son.
If this group of people enters the forest, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with. ”
The Elven Queen handed the information to Wright: "This is the news from the head of the front-line mercenary group. ”
"Dead, kill. These guys are diehards who can't fight the united front, and keeping them will only add to the burden.
In the case of mercenaries, let the mercenary group on the front line convey the news of the Elven Empire through the Mercenary Association.
The Elven Empire only wants to recover the homeland that was forcibly occupied by the First Empire, and has no intention of starting a war with the Terrans.
If they don't meddle in this matter, then they will reap the friendship of the elves.
If they choose to accept this mission, then they are enemies of the elves. On the battlefield, the sword has no eyes, and life and death are conceited. ”
The Elven Empress also agrees with Wright's decision, and as the leader of the Elven Race, she doesn't want to mess with the entire human race.
Because she knows very well, not to mention the Goddess of Light and the Divine Court. Even if the man in front of him is still there, it is impossible for the elves to defeat humans and return to the world overlord.
Living in peace is the best vision.
"That'...... What about the dead? ”
Wright smiled slightly: "Don't we have a baby captive?" Escort him up, I have a way to make his father, who is eager to save his son, obedient. ”
"Good! Go and bring the man up. ”
Wright turned to the side: "Lilith, call the succubus from last time." ”
Lilith didn't know what Wright was going to do, but she reached out and drew a circle, then reached into it with one hand and grabbed a high-ranking succubus with a terrified face.
"Big big! My lord! I'm ......"
The succubus was so frightened that his face was bloodless, and he couldn't say a whole sentence in a trembling voice.
"Afraid of what?"
Wright frowned: "After a while, you just need to control the target's mind and let him do what I say." ”
"Yes!"
After a while, Bender, who had been imprisoned for a day, was brought up. Before he could scold, he was controlled by a high-level succubus.
Wright snatched the notebook and pen from the elven princess's hand, and swiped and wrote something.
"Let this guy contact his dad with that magic item."
The succubus nodded again and again, and hurriedly controlled him to urge his magic channel. After a sizzling sound, the voice of a middle-aged man was heard.
"Bender, is that you?"
Seeing this, Wright turned the first page of the small cup, which read "Let him talk normally"
The succubus understood and manipulated Bender.
"It's me, Father!"
"What is your situation now? You okay? Where are you located? ”
As if he had anticipated it, Wright turned the second page and asked the succubus to control Bender to read it as written.
"Father, our ranks have been broken up. Those goddamn pointy-eared ears have set a trap in the middle of the jungle, just waiting for us to take the bait.
Fortunately, the guards around me fought bravely to save me from escaping. ”
"Then why didn't you come back since you escaped?"
Wright turned the third page, and the succubus continued to cooperate.
"Father, I am a blessing in disguise, and I will soon find the base camp of the enemy. As long as you can get rid of this place in one fell swoop, you can not only defeat the elven army, but also rescue other prisoners of war!
This is a once-in-a-lifetime fighter!
But I don't have enough troops right now, so I hope you'll send me some more. ”
Mikelser on the other side was very angry: "What nonsense, come back immediately!" That's an order! ”
"Father, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
"Shut up! Execute the command! ”
"But we're already deep in the forest, and even if we go back, we're likely to encounter other elves or traps on the way.
Why don't you send troops to support me again, and let me destroy their base camp in one fell swoop.
Otherwise, even if I go back now, the road will be more dangerous. ”
The magician fell silent, and finally the other seemed to compromise.
"Alright, I'll send a team of forests to join you. Where are you now? ”
Wright's finger slid across the map and ended up stopping at a place called Maple Valley. The succubus hurriedly gave a hint, and Bender said to the magician.
"My men and I are hiding in Maple Valley."
"Okay, you just stay here and don't move, everything will wait until the rescue force arrives!"
With a click, the wizard lost its response.
Everyone, look at me, I'll look at you, Emily muttered.
"Is this a believe? Isn't this general afraid of deception? Didn't he suspect that the man who spoke here was not his son? ”
Unexpectedly, Bende, who was half-asleep and half-awake, opened his mouth: "This magic guide can only be used by me, and it is soul-bound." ”
Emily was taken aback: "Why is he only saying it now?" Why didn't you ask yesterday! If this is ......"
In the middle of her words, Emily saw Wright looking at herself speechlessly.
"What's wrong? Am I wrong? ”
Wright looked like he hated iron but not steel: "Is he bound to the soul of this magic guide, you are a legendary powerhouse, can't you sense it?"
You can't feel it, can't I and your sister Lilith feel it?
Why didn't you ask? Because we've seen it.
It's like, we don't ask you what color your clothes are today.
I'm also a magician, so why do you ignore the most basic questions? Give me a penalty stand outside the classroom! ”
Emily's pretty face suddenly blushed: "That, that...... Even his son himself may have been mentally controlled! He's such a big general, don't you doubt it? ”
Wright snapped his fingers at the controlled Bender, "You, explain it to her." ”
"This magic guide of mine has a detection function. Illusions, mind control, hypnosis, body manipulation, and other means will be detected, and if found, a warning will be given.
Only the words of the user, that is, myself, who speak according to the will of my heart, can be transmitted. ”
Emily's eyes widened, "Can this be done?" ”
"Yes, that's why you need soul binding. Because it will, from the soul level. ”
"Then that, didn't all those words just now leak out? I see, Wright, you're specialized in delivering false information! ”
Wright covered his face: "I'll give you a hint...... Why did I ask Lilith to find a high-level succubus?
After all, it seems that this matter can be done by a low-level little succubus. ”
"Cause...... Because ......"
"Because, the methods of junior succubi are too common, and basically human mages can detect them. And the means of high-level succubi are those magic guides made by humans, which cannot be detected. ”
Wright stretched out his hand and pointed to the location of Maple Valley on the map: "As punishment, you will rush me to Maple Valley to set up defenses now."
This time it's not good to cover it directly with firepower, so you have to let these dead soldiers die quietly.
Can it be done? ”
"Of course that's fine!"
Emily agreed without hesitation, and she wanted to get out of this place as soon as possible.
What's more, she had just gained new powers, and she just wanted someone to give it a try.
Emily turned and left the elven war room, setting up a breeze and flying in the direction of her target.
Meanwhile, in the border cities of the First Empire, Prince Michael gathered his private army.
"Now, go to Maple Valley. Be sure to hide your whereabouts on the road, and don't startle the snake.
When you see that stinky boy from Bender, don't listen to any of his orders.
Remember, your mission is to bring him back to me safely! ”
"Yes! Master! ”
After arranging his personal soldiers, the prince turned to look at the two in the shadows.
"Two, please help me to get my unsuccessful son back. He is the foundation of the future of the empire, and he must not be lost. ”
Two magicians, a man and a woman, dressed in black robes, walked out, and the older male magician smiled slightly.
"Your Royal Highness, rest assured, we will definitely bring His Highness Bande back safely."
"Then it's hard work for the two of you! After the deed is done, there will be great thanks! ”
The two magicians nodded, and then left the border city gate with the private army, heading towards the depths of the dense forest.
This rescue force almost followed the route of the army led by Bender, and because the trap was destroyed in the early stage, it was relatively smooth in the early stage.
But in the second half, he was also infested by some magic plants.
However, as the intel shows, these privates are well-armed, have a higher overall combat level, and have two powerful mages to suppress the formation.
Although it was hard along the way, it was considered to have come to the periphery of Maple Valley.
However, what they didn't know was that from the moment they entered the dense forest, their every move was under the supervision of Wright and the others.
Because all of his armies had been captured, the battlefield transcription magicians that had been prepared were no longer working.
Wright left a few to keep under watch in the captive camp, and the rest basically flew in to monitor the private army.
There were even two occasions when the private troops went the wrong way, and it was Wright who deliberately set the trap and steered them on the right path.
In order to quietly send these people to the Western Heavens, Wright can be said to have taken great pains.
And during the observation, Wright could see at a glance that the two magician robes accompanying the army were embroidered with the logo of the Tower of Truth.
Although they cleverly confused the past with other patterns, Wright, who had dealt with the Tower of Truth so many times, still recognized it at a sight.
"This little bait really caught two big fish."
Wright connected to Emily's intercom magician: "Emily Emily, please reply when you hear me." ”
"Emily hears me, Wright, please."
"Among the ranks of the enemy are two remnants from the Tower of Truth. Grab the two of them for me, and we'll interrogate you about the details of the remnant of truth in the Empire. ”
"Is there a remnant of truth coming to the fore? Okay, well, I'll definitely catch them, you can rest assured. ”
After Emily cut off the connection, she quietly hibernated in the Maple Leaf Valley, waiting for the enemy to arrive.
Sure enough, after a while, a group of private soldiers quietly approached Maple Leaf Valley.
They were very cautious in their actions, and even outside the Maple Leaf Valley, they did not rush in.
Although these people are private soldiers, they are not fools.
The general who led the team was a confidant general entrusted by the prince. When he arrived, he sensed that something was wrong.
Since there are guards to protect His Highness Bande who has escaped, there should be a small army stationed here.
Although the pro-soldiers are a notch lower than the private soldiers. But these pro-soldiers are also the best under Michaelse.
In such a place deep into the war zone, even if there is a shortage of manpower and there is no secret sentry, how can there not even be a clear outpost?
And there were no signs of crowd activity around here, and the instincts of a professional soldier told him that it was suspicious.
"Let's go, keep going."
However, it is a pity that the two magicians accompanying him are not professional soldiers. They are arrogant by nature, and they don't bother to think about what they have or don't like the weak.
"yes, why don't you go in?"
"Two, something is wrong here, I'm afraid there is an ambush."
When the male magician heard this, he burst out laughing.
"Look at the way you look scared, what's wrong? It's just a bunch of elves, and it scares you.
Even if there is an ambush, we are not afraid.
Unless, it was the elf queen who came in person, and maybe it was a little troublesome. ”
"Yes...... But ......"
"Don't talk nonsense, our time is precious, we've wasted so much time on the road, we've all arrived at our destination, what are you doing?"
The male magician was very arrogant: "Do you know that our time is precious? I'm not interested in playing house games with your precious highness here.
Quickly picked people up, understand? ”
"But in case this is a trap laid by an elf, His Highness is not in it......"
"Then arrest the elves who are in ambush and ask about the whereabouts of your Highness. Isn't it like waiting here to see which tree will give you a highness? ”
Although the leader of the private army was unhappy, there was nothing he could do.
What's more, what the other party said is also right, even if he knows that this is a trap now, he can only test it head-on.
Otherwise, you won't be able to make a difference.
"All of them! Get ready for battle! Enter Maple Valley in a defensive formation! ”
At the urging of the two magicians, the private soldiers formed a battle formation and moved into the Maple Valley little by little.
However, after entering it, there was not even a single ghost in the huge valley.
As they looked around, the puddle in the valley began to splash.
Immediately afterwards, Emily, armed with flowing water, came out of it with a crowbar.
