Vol 6 Chapter 213: Last option

"You madman ... you want to destroy the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain ?!"
really……
At the moment when Dracis's roar of rage echoed in the laboratory, Isaac rolled his eyes and immediately showed the expression "as I thought".
In the diary that Isaac Grantham wrote to himself many years later, he described his mood at the time as follows:
"For someone who has ideas and works hard, even if he is not a genius, he does not do great things-the most difficult and almost impossible to accomplish is not to get things done, because he is already mentally prepared. .
The most difficult thing is to explain to others what you are doing and why you are doing it.
You will find that you do not understand why the other party is asking this question. Even if you really try to figure it out, you will find it impossible for the other party to understand what you are explaining.
Letting one mouth explain the problem to two ears is simply the most terrible thing in the world ... because before you speak, the other person already has the "expected" answer in mind.
So the result is nothing more than two-the real one, and the one he wants to hear.
The latter is basically deceiving, and if you explain the problem seriously ... and not talking about whether he can accept it, if you accept it, his first reaction is mostly that you are fooling or deceiving him.
It's like the people who saw this diary except me at this moment, most of the time it is impossible to understand my mood and feelings at that time.
And if you can understand it, maybe it ’s because you have a similar experience, that is ... I said the answer of "what you want to hear" ... "
"I need an explanation--!"
Dracis's roar brought Isaac who rolled his eyes back to reality.
There was silence in the empty laboratory.
Facing the angry Dresis, Isaac was surprisingly calm, without any slight mocking or contempt in his eyes.
Instead, he was before marriage ... I am afraid that he has been sneering at the heads of the potatoes, and then made a very profound and "how to be genius" speech.
"Dresis ... that commander, what you want is not an explanation." Isaac raised his eyes, his voice was very small, but it was still enough for everyone present to hear:
"I'm wrong, as long as I obey your orders, the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain will definitely be able to keep it ... what you want to hear is this."
"You want me to say that the Boundary Mountain Fortress can be kept."
"you--?!"
Suddenly Dracis, instinctively clutching Isaac's collar, brought up this sloppy and thin wizard:
"Isaac Grantham, you, you ..." The voice of the deputy commander of the fortress trembled violently, desperately suppressing the flame-burning anger inside:
"You want to say that the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain ... can't hold it ?!"
"I didn't say that." Isaac, who did not resist, sighed and looked at him: "I just calculated it and came to the conclusion I needed."
"If you need our talents to guard the fortress, then this fortress is absolutely untenable; if you think you do n’t need us ... then why are you here, what are we doing and the survival of the fortress? what is the relationship?"
Dracis was frightened and angry. He gritted his teeth, his right hand clutching Isaac's collar still shaking.
"You ... this self-righteous wizard, who on earth gave you the privilege to make such a claim?"
"Say! Who gave you the power?"
"I gave it to him."
The slight voice interrupted Dressis's questioning without warning.
The deputy commander of the fortress, who had just been furious, suddenly froze like an electric shock and stood motionless.
The knights and wizards in the laboratory looked at each other in surprise, turning their eyes to the direction of the sound.
The expressionless Connor de Salion stood alone in front of the door and stood down.
"Your Majesty is here--!"
In a hurry of screams, officers and wizards kneeled down on one knee as Connold progressed, like a split wave.
The stunned Dracis turned back blankly, staring at the figure walking towards himself at a loss.
"Your Majesty, I don't know ..."
"If you don't know what to do, let's put our Sir Isaac down first." Connor, who was expressionless, glanced at the arrogant witches who were struggling like a lobster with red faces: "If you If you are going to strangle him, then ... "
"Ah! Me, I just didn't pay attention ..."
He hurriedly released Isaac, who was almost choking to death, and Dracis hurriedly lowered his head, his mouth tight.
After a moment of helpless confusion, the wizards and knights around finally summoned their courage and stepped forward.
"Ask what you want to ask." Looking at his expression of silence, Connold said quietly: "As the first commander of the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain, you are entitled to know all the secrets."
Dress, clenching her fists and daring not to look directly at Connold's eyes, said hardly: "Your Majesty, you just said that Isaac Grantham did what you did ... "
"Yes."
A faint sentence, but it was like a thunderbolt to Dresis!
"Accurately speaking, it should be acquiescence." Connor's eyes dropped, and he was always watching his expression: "I know what he is doing, and it hasn't stopped him."
"why?!"
This is the thing that Dresis least understands: "Did your Majesty think that the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain would definitely fall ?!"
"Don't you believe that under your rule, the empire ... can't even hold the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain ?!"
The unwilling questioning echoed in the laboratory, making the expressions of the people present a little shocked.
Connor, like the default, never spoke a word from beginning to end.
A minute later, Connor finally greeted Dressis's constant gaze.
"Ernst Dresis, and all of you." Connor said in a deep voice: "What is our mission?"
Everyone's expressions froze.
"Do you want to build a merit in the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain, kill the Azores, kill more Azores, or kill all the elves?" The emperor's supreme emperor, his fiery red eyes swept majestic:
"No, the reason we are here is that we have to hold here-because if we fail, the enemy will be able to drive in and destroy the foundations of the empire, and we ... will have no room to fight back!"
"So in the past five days, we have been fighting blood with the enemy at all costs, and we have always insisted, even if there is only a little hope, we will not give up-because if we give up, no one will help us pick it up!"
"We are not here to prove ourselves, not for glory, wealth and status; we are here because if we are not there, no one will replace us."
In the laboratory, Connor's voice became louder and louder. Fiery eyes stared at everyone who looked at him, or did not dare to look at his eyes:
"It is true that we will do our best to block the enemy from the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain; I would also like to believe that under the commander of Dracis, you can do your best to go Complete an impossible battle. "
"I believe you ... if you need to prove this, I don't mind standing side by side with you when the battle is fiercest-many of you have fought side by side with me, and you all know what I said is true. "
"But because of this, because everything we do is so important, and because we all know what happens if the enemy breaks through the fortress and heads south?"
"One million people in the imperial capital are counting on us. Thousands of people in Sakran are counting on us. Empires ... Thousands of ordinary people living on their own land are counting on our victory, but we The worst must be prepared! "
"If we die hard, who can appear under the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain at a critical moment?"
"If we repel the elves, the monsters launched another invasion?"
"If the enemy of Ebboden suddenly went north, repelled our reinforcements, struck the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain on both sides ... what should I do?"
"Everyone, we have too many concerns. We ... can't afford to lose, and we can't afford to lose once." Standing on the spot, Connor said loudly:
"Therefore ... Connold de Salleone begs you to bring me victory, if not ..."
"Then please make a determination to burn with Jiejie Mountain ..."
The voice echoed in the hall.
Dresis, still with her head down, trembles in her hands and feet, and looks hot.
Throughout the laboratory, almost everyone thought that the words of His Majesty Connold were taking the opportunity to invigorate the morale and rejuvenate the soldiers who had fought for five days and five nights, but ...
Only him ... only Dresis understood that this was not the case.
This is not Connor's style at all!
From the first day of his command, His Majesty was extremely disgusted with giving any speeches to the soldiers. He even more admired the prohibition of orders, so that every soldier could understand his mission and plan to be implemented as much as possible.
Connor is even more opposed to telling the soldiers from the beginning of the battle to make a determination to fight a deadly battle-the battle of the backwaters can indeed have the effect of a sorrow, but it will also make more soldiers who have little courage even more Decadent, no longer have the confidence to fight to live.
Therefore, it is not that His Majesty is encouraging morale, but that he is covering up his mistakes.
Cover him up ... Dress's mistake.
From the moment when he broke into the laboratory, His Majesty knew that he was not trying to find the cause of the problem, but to find a scapegoat and a person who could assume that he had failed to complete the mission and defend the Boundary Mountain in case of "in case". The fortress came here as a scapegoat!
For his own sake, His Majesty Connold had to be uncharacteristically publicizing this slogan of "decisive battle!"
………………………………
It wasn't until the complicated-looking Dressis took the knight officers out of the laboratory that Connor turned around and looked at Isaac, who was sitting next to him without saying a word:
"How is the progress?"
"Are you referring to the preparation of the Magic Circle, or when will this system work?"
Isaac shrugged his legs with sloppy hair and shrugged his shoulders. He asked casually, "If it is the previous one, it will take at least a week-I have no experience with this large magic array, and I can't find it. Experienced people, so they can only fumble for a little bit. "
"The only Corona with experience in this area ... forget it, the dead will not mention it; in short, it may take five or six days to complete the preparation, but ..."
"But if you just want to meet our expectations, you don't need to complete the entire magic circle."
Glancing at the complex patterns under his feet, Connold said coldly: "It's just ... causing an earthquake, destroying the fortified mountain fortress and then burying it under the collapsed mountain, making it impossible for the enemies in the north to pass this kind of thing, Is there no difficulty for Sir Isaac Grantham? "
"It's really easy to say, and the tone is not small."
Slowly stood up, holding Isaac's face on his shoulders with no difficulty: "But I like it!"
Connor narrowed his eyes.
"Isaac, you should understand that if you really get to that point, if the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain has to be sealed ... Lorren Turin is equivalent to cutting off his only back path."
"You do this like killing your friends with your own hands, and even leaving thousands of people on the ice sheet with nowhere to escape."
That's right ... If the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain is destroyed, even if the defenders in the fortress can have the time to evacuate, Loren Turin and the thousands of soldiers who are still in the Blood Skull Valley, there is really no way to leave this. A glacier wilderness!
"I know." Isaac nodded of course:
"It would be better to say that the guy specifically let me stay because he knew this; his task for me was to keep the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain anyway-since it is anyway, it should be reasonable not to take him into consideration. Is it something? "
"Of course ... as his senior, I trust his ability, but I also care about his life and death; after guarding the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain, I will leave here and go to the Blood Skull Valley to find him, don't you have any opinions?"
Connor nodded, and didn't ask too much nonsense like "how do you get there".
It turned out that the wizard had all been planned before leaving?
For the purpose of setting aside a complete plan for your own safety and security, in the worst case, you can ensure that the most basic plan is achieved-so cautious, so meticulous.
It is worthy of being the taken by his father ...
"Then ~ EbookFREE.me ~ everything pleases you, Sir Isaac." Connor whispered: "If necessary, I will try to notify you."
"Well, give it to me." With a yawn, Isaac waved at him:
"It's so late, let's go to rest quickly, big cousin."
Big cousin ...
Connold's expression twitched, and he walked silently toward the laboratory door.
"Woo !!!!!!

Without waiting for him to leave, a quick horn sounded; the pale Dresis hurried back from the outside:
"The Azore elves raided the fortress, please His Majesty, immediately go to the tower to evade-!"
