Chapter 856: Meeting
This is the Eastern Continent, which is the home of the Ming Empire, and the battle between the large-scale armored forces with the demons has made such an exaggerated movement, and the other party naturally has no reason not to know. The key question is, will they send people to contact this group of adventurers in the Western Continent? No, in fact, the Ming Empire estimates that it doesn't even know where the troops fighting against the demons belong to, even so, will the other party take the initiative to contact?
Alicia didn't care about any of this, her original plan was just to announce the existence of herself and the others to the Ming Empire, and at the same time show enough liliang and willingness to fight demons, so that they who are currently fighting hard have a bottom in their hearts. As for whether the other party will send someone to make contact - the current blonde girl is only the captain of a team of adventurers named "Thorn Rose", not the little queen of the strongest empire in the Western Continent, and similar troublesome but important things are thrown to Leonard, who is embarrassed and full of black lines.
At the beginning, the mercenary president also asked his subordinates to report to Alicia on many specific matters and ask for her opinions and instructions, but the little queen said that she really didn't care, and after arranging her friends, she played with Elijah and disappeared. When she finally found out where Alicia was from the mysterious masked man in the cloak (Yu Chimu), she was hinted that the blonde girl was doing something unsightly in the woods with her little friend, such as "beep-" and "beep-" and "beep-".
Although Leonard knew that the man in the cape was probably adding a lot of fuel to it, after all, it was too bad to fight in the woods with his male companion in broad daylight. But it still succeeded in dissuading him from going to Elicia. Eventually, Leonard had to start taking care of a lot of things with the help of some of the other mercenary leaders, and he neglected certain aspects as a result, resulting in Michelle's ultimate dark cuisine that was easy to avoid.
That being said. Leonard still arranged for Alicia and the others to be next to the tent in the center of the temporary camp, so that he could consult the little queen on some extremely important matters at any time.
Thanks to this, when a group of black-haired and yellow-skinned human soldiers with clothes and armor that were obviously very different from the style of the Western Continent walked into the adventurer's temporary camp, Alicia and the others, who were sitting around the open-air bonfire and enjoying the delicious food made by Asami herself, quickly found out.
Imrith didn't bother to wipe a small piece of butter from the corner of her mouth, leaned over to look at the group of people walking towards the command tent and asked in a low voice, "Now, sister." Are they from the Ming Empire?"
"Well, that's right. Alicia pulled out her handkerchief and carefully wiped the corners of her sister's mouth. finished pinching the tip of the little girl's nose, which made her can't help but pouted aggrievedly, "But." I didn't expect the other party to send someone to make contact so quickly, I thought they would continue to watch and observe for a few days. ”
Sitting opposite, Poison Island Tsuneko was not used to the daily undisciplined exercise of a blonde girl, she always remembered Elicia's status as the queen, so she suggested: "Queen Bixia." Shouldn't you go over and show your face?"
Alicia immediately shook her head decisively: "No. If I've asked about everything, what's the difference between me and actually secretly controlling the team? Adventurers respect me, but they don't like it. Besides, the alliance did not send a large-scale army, and all the civilians who came to the Eastern Continent were some volunteers, don't you think this statement will make the Ming Empire feel much more at ease? If a queen of the strongest empire in the Western Continent suddenly appears at this time, wouldn't it make the other party vigilant and create a barrier? So let's leave it to Leonard to deal with. ”
Wei Chi Mu, who was guarding the little queen's side, also suppressed the urge to meet with acquaintances when he heard this, and sat quietly in place.
Since the morning scouts reported that in the wilderness near Baoqing City, there was a fierce battle between the demon's armored unit and another armored unit of unknown origin. Lin Feiyun's heart has been hanging high and has not fallen. The fact that the demon was about to embark on a large-scale siege was so violently attacked by a noble angel that it was beaten on the spot was enough to make people stunned, because at that moment, everyone thought that the legendary Protoss had returned to Drowlivan to help humanity defend against the demon. So I was very excited for a while.
Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be the case. When the demon dispatched a large number of elites to stop it, the angel girl did not fly towards Baoqing City, but retreated in the other direction, and this direction was the location of the wilderness where the next two armored forces were fighting.
The Scout encounters a number of large, white-skinned humans in strange costumes near the wilderness, apparently on a scout mission as well. In the case that there is likely to be a demon not far away, the two sides have a tacit understanding that they did not have a conflict and chose to avoid it, but they have not had formal contact, so it is not clear who the other party belongs to.
But certainly not the Protoss, humans and birdmen are similar but there is still a clear difference. For example, chicken wings and chicken wings and chicken wings or something......
The troops in Baoqing City were under the command of Emperor Gongsun Yi, and Lin Feiyun was not very worried about this; the old general was more concerned about the unknown troops near the city, and if they were brought over to win them over who were also fighting against the demons in the unfavorable situation, it should be a great help. Therefore, although Gongsun Yi dissuaded that this might be a trap set by the demons, Lin Feiyun still insisted on sneaking over the demon battle line with a team of elites and came to the wilderness after the fierce battle.
The wreckage of the smashed iron crab made a deep impression on the old general.
The adventurers on guard on the perimeter soon spotted the group of men and horses coming in a bright way, and Leonard, who had been briefed, thought about it for a moment and ordered them to be invited into a makeshift camp. So the reunion between the Eastern and Western Continents after many years was completed by the president of the largest mercenary guild in the Western Continent and an old general in the Eastern Continent who was highly respected but had no military power.
Wei Chi Mu, who was sitting next to Alicia, naturally recognized Lin Feiyun at a glance, but the old general failed to recognize the proud protégé with his face covered. After the little queen decided not to show up. The meeting between the two was postponed because of this.
Leonard didn't have much talent, and he didn't have enough guts, and in the face of this kind of serious scene representing the contact between the Western Continent and the Eastern Continent, he only felt that his heart was beating the drums desperately. Cold sweat couldn't stop flowing down from behind. Despite this, he still did his best and invited Lin Feiyun to the tent and sat down.
So, first of all, introduce yourself. Leonard waited for Lin Feiyun to glance at the black tea brought by the attendant suspiciously, and then spoke, "My name is Leonard Mannes, and I am the president of the Sword and Glory Mercenary Guild of the Western Continent, and I am currently the commander of this army composed of adventurers. ”
"Mercenary, I know. What is an adventurer?" Lin Feiyun finally gave up and continued to study the glass of liquid, which looked a little strange in color, and looked up at the somewhat nervous man in front of him and asked.
"Oh, adventurers and mercenaries alike earn a living by taking commissions. However, they are freer and do not belong to any organizations. Leonard, who was suppressed by the old general's aura as soon as he came up, subconsciously explained seriously, "The adventurers are also willing to believe in my ability to command large army expeditions, which makes me the commander." So. Pls are you ......"
As he spoke, Leonard quietly gestured to the attendant who had not had time to leave after serving tea to him. Motioned for him to go and get Alicia to save the day. Commanding thousands of troops and horses on the bloody battlefield for many years and commanding a large group of unconscious loose alliances to form a group to fight the boss and explode equipment are completely two concepts, and the mercenary president who feels that he can't hold it at all hurriedly asks for a replacement, but he doesn't even want face.
Lin Feiyun naturally saw Leonard's small movements, but he didn't feel strange. Indeed, the people in this camp knew at a glance that they were not well-trained soldiers, as the man in front of them said, they were free and loose civilians with a certain amount of adventure experience and great strength, but to be able to mobilize so many civilians was already a more laborious thing than the mobilization of troops. It is impossible to do it without enough appeal.
Although the man in front of him is known as the leader of the largest mercenary guild in the Western Continent, his courage is really a bit crippled, and there is no problem in using adventure experience to serve as a command. Want to gather so many people at once...... He's not this piece of material yet. In other words, there must be a master hidden in the shadows in the back.
The old general did not answer, but squinted his eyes and nourished his spirits, no longer looking at Leonard, who was in a cold sweat, and quietly waited for the appearance of the main master.
In the face of Leonard's plea for help, Alicia also felt a trace of pain. She didn't expect that there was a very powerful character in that group, so that the mercenary president couldn't resist it at all.
"Hey, I can't help it. The blonde girl rubbed the silly hair on the top of her head and sighed, "I still want to try not to show up, but I didn't expect to appear so soon." Uncle Billy, look at the way you just looked at someone on the other side, the eyes lit up, it seems that you know each other, do you want to come?"
Wei Chimu shook his head lightly and replied, "No, it's not the time to meet him yet." However, Queen Bixia, the old general headed by Lin Feiyun, is the representative of the backbone of the Ming Empire, and is also my mentor and friend. Although his personality is blunt and proud, he is actually a very good talker. ”
No wonder Leonard can't hold it back. However, it stands to reason that this Lin Feiyun shouldn't be a very important person, so it really doesn't matter if he casually runs to the rear of the dangerous enemy army?
You're not qualified to speak of anyone else!
Alicia hooked her hand and motioned for Icarus to follow her, and then strode towards the command tent, leaving only a circle of stammering and speechless friends in the same place.
Lin Feiyun didn't wait long for the curtain of the big tent to be lifted, and when he was looking at the other party with serious eyes, the old general's eyes widened in astonishment: it turned out to be a beautiful and noble angel girl who came in, looking at the familiar silver armor and pink wings, it was clearly the angel who used the map cannon to grab experience in the morning, I mean saved the crisis in Baoqing City.
"Your Highness Icarus, you weishenme......" Before Leonard could figure out the situation, he was grabbed by the back collar by the pink angel, and threw him out gorgeously under the gaze of several representatives of the Eastern Continent with black lines, dragging the old man's mournful voice almost out of tune, "Ahhhhhhh——!!h
Therefore, this off-line angel who treats people as things when they meet is the main one who launched the many adventurers in the Western Continent this time? It's raining.
"Didn't I tell you many times Icarus, you can't just throw things around. Suddenly, a sweet girl's voice sounded like fluffy halva melted in her heart. "What if you hit the little Lori, what if you hit the little Lori, even if you don't hit someone, it's not good to hit the flowers and plants. ”
"Master, I think it's better to care about the person who was thrown out here. Icarus looked in the direction of the doorway and said indifferently with an expressionless face.
"Is this the line that the person who just threw the other party out at a speed of tens of meters per second should say!?" With a sharp complaint, the door curtain was gently lifted, and the owner of the voice immediately appeared in the sight of Lin Feiyun and his entourage, "Excuse me, everyone, I'm eating." Please don't mind?"
There is no doubt that the petite girl in front of her is definitely the most beautiful woman Lin Feiyun has ever seen in her life, and at the same time, she is also the most unreliable girl.
Looking at the half-eaten plate of food that Alicia was holding in her left hand and the delicate fork on her right hand. Lin Feiyun only felt that the corners of his eyes were twitching.
Amazing, embarrassed, speechless...... All kinds of emotions swept through the old general's heart like a tsunami, and he couldn't say a word for a long time with his mouth open. Instead, Alicia sat down on the throne and spoke first, "So, can I ask who you are?"
A little annoyed Lin Feiyun was about to frown and refute something, but he was stunned to find an indescribable and powerful pressure coming towards him. Just being casually glanced at by that beautiful blonde girl made the old general's body ooze a little cold sweat.
This girl. And the angel named Icarus next to her still calls her "master", who can enslave the noble angel, is it possible that she is a member of the Protoss!?
In a sense, the old general guessed correctly.
Carefully leaning on the chair, putting down the dinner plate, stilting Erlang's legs, half-clenching his fists to support his cheeks, and the aura that made the air in the entire tent freeze, Lin Feiyun took two deep breaths, tried to straighten his back, and said with a straight face: "I am the marshal of the Ming Empire in the Eastern Continent, called Lin Feiyun." Although he has retired, he has returned to the battlefield because of the situation. After discovering your existence, I came to pay a visit. ”
Unexpectedly, Alicia nodded in satisfaction when she saw this, and then withdrew her aura. Holding his previous somewhat casual posture, he said, "I see." I believe that you must have a lot of questions and doubts now, old general, but please be calm for a while. First of all. The current political landscape of the Western Continent is not a unified state, but a vast alliance. After the Alliance's forces successfully defeated the demon navy and landed on the continent of Teranmere, they set up a teleportation array to serve as a supply line for transporting troops and supplies, and your teleportation array happened to resonate with ours during the experiment. From the mouths of the captured high-ranking demons, we learned about the opponent's actions in the Eastern Continent, but the alliance's army was confronting the enemy, and it was impossible to pull away. So......"
Hearing this, Lin Feiyun naturally understood everything, nodded in a sudden realization and said: "That's the case, so it is the most feasible to use a lot of money to summon adventurers to go to the Eastern Continent through the teleportation array to interrupt the demon's battle." But I also know that the demons have some kind of spiritual magic that can control others, so how can you prove that you are indeed from the Western Continent and not slaves of the demons?
The blonde girl immediately sat up straight, stroked her hair, and said loudly, "I'm Alicia Harris, a beautiful girl adventurer who once ruined the good deeds of the demons many times when they tried to invade the Western Continent!"
Icarus pulled out a paper fan and slammed it on the girl's head as Lin Feiyun stared at him.
"It hurts, it hurts, and I don't know how to start. Alicia covered her head and pouted her lips with tears in her eyes, "I brought you here to serve as a façade, not for you to make a cameo appearance." ”
Was the powerful aura that seemed to dominate the world just now really emanating from the beautiful girl in front of her? Lin Feiyun, who was full of standard tribulation expressions, swung away the rolling heavenly thunder above his head, clenched his fists hard, and coughed, "I'm sorry, let's talk about business first, okay?"
"Ah, sorry, sorry, I got used to it by accident. Alicia smiled and scratched her head, saying, "Prove it, it's not easy, but I have a more practical way here." The Ming Empire should have taken in a lot of people who have been brainwashed by demons, and I'll tell you how to remove the brainwashing, won't you know if you go back and experiment?"
"You have developed a way to release the control!?" Lin Feiyun immediately became excited when he heard this, after all, this move of the demon has a considerable deterrent effect, if it can be lifted, then the situation will be completely different, "Please tell me!"
"Well, it's very simple, just find a cute girl and let her sing and dance in her underwear on stage in front of everyone!" (To be continued......)
