Reuter Infinite Revelation:
After three years of long waiting, time and time of reconnaissance, rushing and monster hunting missions, I finally won the guard of Loren Turin, Duke of Byrne, and the captain of the wings of the sky (Devil Hunter Legion) Lusien Trust, leading a team alone to perform an important latent task.
The target, the Yunling Kingdom, the peak of the dwarf capital Yun.
After the unprecedented Battle of the Silver Helmet Mountain, which won the Duke of Byrne, the fall of the Dwarf Fortress was unprecedented in its impact on the Prestige of the Supreme King; the peace that had been managed to maintain was completely torn apart.
Every dwarf fortress has declared its independence, and even they claim to be the 'Supreme King of Yunling'; the continuous attack between each other, but due to the inconvenient transportation of the mountains, and the blocking of the passage between the fortresses, makes Large-scale battles are impossible; the form of war is basically limited to looting, destruction, and cursing across the sky.
Even with the support and assistance from Byrne, the dwarf supreme king (or "original" supreme king) fell precipitously in the event of a kingdom split, not only did the decree fail to reach the summit of the cloud, but even in the peak of the cloud, it was not very easy to use .
Faced with the direct influence of the empire, such a chaotic situation is that the "Mithril Trade" is completely cut off, and the Holy Cross Church can no longer receive one kilogram of mitre silver; The king exchanged a staggering amount of mitral silver ore, totaling about two to three times the annual "mitral silver trade."
Therefore, even if the Empire has any way to immediately end the dwarves' civil war, it is impossible to get any Mithril Ore compensation, because they really can't even take out a piece of ore.
In addition to the sudden fall of the Supreme King, another reason for this civil war involves the "by-product" of the Battle of Silver Helmets three years ago-Corrupt Demon.
The inside of the wings of the sky uses this name to refer to humanoid creatures eroded by the Holy Blood Potion-they have no pain, no desire, and even no sense, but they have extremely strong vitality. Most of them can only be cut off by the head. They stopped, and very few even had bones to move unless they were blown to ashes.
After the Battle of Silver Helmet, hundreds of thousands of Corrupt Demons entrenched in the fortress began to spread out, a small part wandered in the Great Green Sea, and most of them scattered among the mountains of the Yunling Kingdom.
These few monsters with strong combat power and vitality make the road between the fortresses extremely dangerous; in the case of internal divisions, the dwarves cannot completely eliminate them, and they can only separate their fortresses and split them. Further intensified.
But Captain Lussien, or the Duke of Loren Turin, believes that the cause of the long-term turmoil in the Yunling Kingdom is not only these, but the result of some forces deliberately pushing behind it.
The dwarf is a highly militarized race. Once it is unified and put into battle, it will be the most powerful war machine. Civil war and division will seriously weaken the strength of this war machine.
At present, the Supreme King is still confronting the rebels according to Shouyun Peak. With the corruption of the Demon and all the fortress passages blocked, it is expected that this confrontation will continue for a long time.
My task is to investigate the reasons why Yunfeng Peak has never been able to restore the dominance of the Yunling Kingdom, as well as the possible identity behind the scenes, to prepare for the Duke's next plan.
The night watchman who is always loyal to the empire;
Sincerely, Carl Colin.
………………………………
After writing the last word, Carl Colin carefully collected the charcoal and parchment, hesitated to repeatedly erase the words "preparing for the Duke's next plan", and then put it in the letter tube that he carried with him; again and again After confirming that he was correct, he took a sigh of relief and rubbed his eyes tiredly.
Similar things, he has done countless times in the past few years.
Three years ago, after his own night watchman who was mixed with Byrne was discovered, not only did Duke Loren Turin remove or imprison himself, but he tacitly acquiesced to report the status of the task and the night watchman after each task. progress;
Similarly, the head of the night watchman, Rut Infinite, who was aware of the problem, seemed to acquiesce in the fact that he never mentioned the facts he exposed, but instead assigned himself various tasks as always.
In the past three years, endless groups of heretics have kept the horrified Holy Cross Church busy; the
Ghoul Tide
that broke out in Lotel appeared to attack the town, and the ogres in the ancient wood forest changed again. Too restless
The Principality of Arles suffered the most fierce monster invasion in a century, the northern icefield werewolves went south on a large scale, slaughtered villages and even besieged the fortress; the Poi horses of the Great Green Sea were still clearing the rest of the "Centaur War" The debris, the ocean-going fleet of Eboden, is still unreported.
The turbulent situation allowed the Heavenly Dome and the Red Blood Castle to reach a certain degree of tacit agreement.
I can let your actions go, but I can't say anything; you have to stop when things go wrong, because I have to intervene.
In the past three years, this kind of "tacit understanding" between the two parties has solved an unknown event-a mutated monster tide, mixed with the heretic sect of the village, the eroded person suspected of being the apostle of the evil ... Countless.
But the "tacit agreement" is based on the premise of the current turmoil, and the contradiction between the two sides is still sharp; in addition to Byrne's rising popularity, they have almost stood in the camp of His Highness Brandon de Salion In the meantime, the imperial aristocrats in the Sackland supported Crown Prince Connaught without suspense.
No one knows how His Majesty Eckhart II considered it; but as he ages, contradictions intensify day by day; internal contradictions surpass external contradictions, but it is only a matter of time.
How long this "peace" of walking on the wire can last, Carl Colin is not clear, but at least he can still use his own way to make a little contribution to this peace.
Even if it is really just a little ...
"what to do?"
The moment the words behind him sounded, Carl Colin moved instinctively.
"Ding--!"
The crisp sound of the organ, that is the sound of the Xiu Jian popping out.
Turn around, raise your elbow, suppress, capture.
In one go.
"Boom--!"
Less than half a second later, the figure who had just approached from behind was pressed under him, Xiu Jian pressed his throat, and his face still maintained the expression half a second ago.
It wasn't until now that Carl Colin clearly saw the guy who was pressed under him; a young baby's face was full of panic, and he raised his hands subconsciously over his head.
Carl frowned slightly.
Martin, the chief of the third phase of the Wings of the Sky, was one of the first ten people to pass the trial of Master Dalton Kander and Captain Lussin, a complete recruit.
Today's Sky Wings are no longer a 100-member team with only 96 people at the beginning of its founding. It expanded its army twice in three years. After excluding the dead and missing, there are more than 300 people, almost the size of a flag regiment.
The guy in front of him is the newcomer to the second expansion-no longer a veteran who came back from the battlefield like himself, or a warrior with a certain wizard talent, but Dalton Kander was selected from the Turin Wizarding Academy. Talented apprentices.
The biggest "feature" of this group of recruits is that there is no consciousness of soldiers. I always feel that I can be a blockbuster when I am out of the box, I can't wait to prove myself, and then die like a firefly.
"I warned you more than once."
Staring coldly at the recruit who was pressed to the ground by himself, Carl Colin whispered: "Behind the neck is a dead corner, and it is also a place where the demon hunter is always on alert."
"Yes, I'm sorry!" Martin twitched his throat fiercely, glancing at the sharp edge of his neck with the corner of his gaze: "I must remember next time."
"If you forget, there is no next time."
With a sneer, Carl Colin retracted his sleeved sword; the long-sighing Martin slapped the dust off his body, and the excited smile on his face seemed to have forgotten the fact that he had almost died.
"Captain, what are we going to do next?"
Lurking in the grass, the excited and excited recruit could not help but ask.
Frowning, Carl Colin couldn't help sighing.
"See if the entrance there is there-according to the original plan, we should have sneaked into the Yunfeng Peak Fortress three days ago, waiting for the opportunity to investigate the real reason why the Dwarf Supreme King locked the gate." He said in a deep voice. :
"But now because the Corrupt Demon of Silver Helmet has spread to the vicinity of Yunding Peak, all entrances and passages are blocked. It is impossible to enter the fortress; the only choice is to wait and retreat."
Just when Carl Colin said the word "retreat", the recruits showed a somewhat reluctant look.
"So the next time, we have to rest in peace and wait for the opportunity." Carl Colin continued: "The supplies we bring can be maintained for four days, and if there is no change after four days, we will return the same way."
"The way back, just return without success?" The disappointed recruit said subconsciously.
"Not reconciled?"
"Of course I'm not willing!" Fist clenched his fists, and the recruit nodded heavily: "I have waited a long time since joining the team to this day; how can it be so gray, go back without doing anything ?!
"Then you should rejoice, and thank you for your unwillingness."
Carl Colin said coldly, and his enlightened eyes narrowed the instincts of the recruits: "Not every demon hunter is like you and can be lucky to spend his first mission."
"The vast majority haven't figured out who the enemy is, they have already gone to hell."
The air was quiet again.
The stunned recruits stared at the rune on the back of Karl Colin's neck-a sign that only the first veterans of the wings of the sky had.
The seniors of the recruits mentioned that the predecessor of the wings of the sky was the Duke Guard of Duke Loren formed by wounded veterans and knights during the Centaur War; after the war, only 400 guards left Ninety-six people became the first demon hunters.
They are also the strongest demon hunters to date, and are said to even have the strength to fight against monsters alone.
But now, the hero in mind, the idol, tells himself that he wants to "retreat" in vain ...
"So ... can't we just retreat?" The recruit asked cautiously, "then if something happens ..."
"If there is an accident ..." Carl Colin interrupted him coldly:
"Then we have to retreat even more-the behind-the-scenes hands that can lead to the long-term division of the dwarves, at least must be the ranks of heretic leaders, and even the level of the evil apostles ... that is not an enemy we can confront head-on."
"But ... haven't you beaten them three years ago?" The recruit retorted, his eyes glowing excitedly: "I still remember now, I remember the scene when you entered the Red Blood Castle gate that day-twenty thousand worship The Army of En captured the Silver Helmet and defeated Chakal, leaving the Centaur tribe unforgettable for a hundred years! "
"If you guys at the time can, why can't you now?"
"Because there aren't 20,000 Baine troops here." Carl glanced at him with a blank expression: "Because you and I are not Lord of Baine, Duke of Loren Turin."
He squinted his eyes, his eyes were fascinated, but what he saw in his trance was not the picture of the body of the evil spirit leaping away from the dragon's back as he jumped down from the dragon's back;
The corpses are all over the place, the chaotic battlefield with blood and water, and the omnipresent corrosion demon surrounded by all sides; Captain Lucien roars in rage, and the robes are shattered one by one;
and also……
There is also the scene of Chakal turning his surroundings into ruins and tentacles falling from less than ten steps away.
That's ... a scene that will never be forgotten in this life.
"Okay, you said enough." After stopping the recruits who still wanted to continue to question, Carl Colin got up and left: "Continue to monitor the movement of Cloud Summit, and report any abnormalities to me."
"Comply!" The reluctant recruit nodded reluctantly, almost writing the word "disappointment" on his face.
But this is not what Carl Colin needs to take into consideration-the civil war turmoil in the Kingdom of Yunling ~ EbookFREE.me ~ to a certain extent is conducive to maintaining the "tacit understanding" and peace between the Red Blood Fort and the Sky Vault. For him There is no better result than this.
Next, if everything goes well, if there is no trouble, just take this recruit who has nothing but impulse to spend four days, and ambush a few corrupt evils on the way back so that this kid can kill one by himself. , Even if the mission is completed-to detect the intelligence of the cloud peak, and train new recruits.
That's right, as long as everything goes well, if nothing goes wrong ...
"boom----!!!!"
Karl Colin, who had just turned around, hadn't gone far, and the violent explosion sound had come from the direction of the peak of the cloud, and the surging winds were coming.
A black smoke rose slowly over the distant mountains.
The two demon hunters were dumbfounded, staring at the blazing fire in disbelief.
Solid as a golden soup, the indestructible cloud peak, actually ...
Was it broken? !
