Chapter 875
Lucia didn't know exactly what the heads of state decided, all she could see was a large number of messengers galloping out of the fortress every day. Flash Dance.
The most immediate response was that there began to be a large-scale movement of troops in various places, and the search for Babylon seemed to have been handed over to some special forces, and most of the scouts that were originally used for the search were instead recalled by order.
The long hours of horseback riding were very physically demanding, and by the time the messenger finally crossed the border to a trading town on a major transportation route, he was basically in a state of extreme fatigue, and even began to show symptoms of dehydration.
Ignoring the horses, he slipped the reins into the hands of the tavern attendants, and the messenger lay down on the edge of the sink in the stables and drank bitterly.
It's been a week since that summit, and he has been running around non-stop for a week, just to complete the order given by the overlord as quickly as possible, not to mention that the horses have been replaced, and even the riders on the horses have almost not resisted.
At such times, I envied others who could use carrier pigeons to transmit messages, but what I wanted to convey was a military order that required the king's hand, and I had to travel long distances in person.
Because the messenger and the horse grab water to drink is a bit of a concern.
Rao is fatigue made the messenger feel a little dazed, and he couldn't help but blush, and just as he wanted to scold him, he saw a young man walk out of the crowd and come to his side.
Although the young man was dressed in simple clothes of coarse cloth, he was handsome and delicate, and he did not look at all like a country boy who was accustomed to doing farm work, especially the bright blonde hair, which at first glance looked completely different from the rough men around him.
"Excuse me, are you a messenger in the army?"
It seems that only young people have such a problem when they see the old military uniform on the messenger's body.
The Messenger began to think about the young man's intentions, but the young man's question itself was ignored by the Messenger, who seemed to him to be a young man from a wealthy family, otherwise he would not have asked so poorly.
Seeing the messenger nodding, the young man breathed a sigh of relief.
"Can you please tell me about the messenger, what happened to the front......? What the hell is the vision all about?"
Hearing the young man's question, the people around them fell silent, and they all looked at the messenger uneasily, expecting the messenger to give a reassuring answer.
The peasants may not have knowledge, but they are not stupid, they had laughed at the Holy See before the war, but the situation after the war frightened them, not only the refugees who fled one after another and the frequent mobilization of troops, but even brought the news that the country's big cities had been attacked one after another.
The already tense atmosphere has become more and more unstable after not being appeased by the authorities, and with the spread of rumors by some people who profit from it and fools who believe it is true, the matter has repeatedly fermented in public opinion, and now even such a border town is beginning to be chaotic.
People are thirsting for a comfort, even if it is just a messenger who says unfounded comfort, they are willing to believe it.
The Courier didn't have much wisdom to read the hearts of the group just by looking at their expressions, but he had been with the Overlord through the devastating battle, so he was in some ways in the same mood as the group, so he spoke to comfort him.
"Rest assured, our Majesty the King and the adults of the other countries are already dealing with this matter. ”
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding people let out exclamations. For them, the king is a great man, and so many great people get together and will definitely be able to solve the problem.
The Courier himself did not expect that such a sentence would reassure the people around him, perhaps because he was closer to the king and understood that the king was just an ordinary human even if he was wise, so he himself did not feel that the kings were so reliable at all, so he added.
"Secretly, I will tell you that this time our King has also invited very strong reinforcements, and there will be no problem. ”
The so-called strong reinforcements refer to the monsters that have been seen before, those monsters dressed in girls' skins. The Courier and his comrades saw with their own eyes that the monster tore through the enemy with the ease of a giant meat grinder, beating the terrible angelic soldiers to pieces.
His colleagues were afraid, they were afraid of these monsters of great power, and he was attracted by the absolute violence, not for that power, but for the unrivalled power, and willing to submit to it.
The crowd was really boiling this time, and it seemed to them that the kings had found a solution, and this time they were really at ease.
Only the young man in front of the messenger had a different expression on his face, and it was too complicated for the messenger to understand. He wanted to say something to the young man, but he saw the young man thank him and leave without looking back.
The messenger opened his mouth, but said nothing. He was not as idle as the young man, and after replenishing the water and food in the town, he had to rush to the nearby military camp to give the overlord's order, so he put the young man's affairs behind him and began to get busy with business.
After stepping out of the crowd, Gilgamesh quietly glanced back and let out a long sigh of relief when he saw that the officer hadn't paid attention to him.
Gilgamesh knew exactly who the reinforcements were referring to, and he didn't expect to hear from the monsters when he got here, so he almost couldn't hold back the expression on his face, but fortunately the officer didn't doubt him.
Relieved, Gilgamesh slowly walked out of town, carrying the daily necessities he had exchanged for his prey, the pouches of candy and silver-plated hairpins he had saved money to buy.
Daily necessities are used by everyone, sweets are bought for children, and hairpins are bought for nuns.
After leaving the town about five or six hundred meters, Gilgamesh saw the nun standing not far away waving to him, and looked at the nun's lively smile, Gilgamesh couldn't help but smile on his face.
"It's so hard for you. ”
The nun wanted to take the goods from Gilgamesh's hands, but Gilgamesh preemptively shoved the goods into the hands of Pompeii, who was next to the nun.
"Nothing hard work. ”
After this time together, Gilgamesh's relationship with these simple refugees has become more and more intimate, and it has become a companion and family member living together.
