Cthulhu descends

"What happened to the barracks?"

Zeenard said: "I don't know, the soldier came to tell me. I will tell you as soon as possible."

"Well, let's go and have a look."

Li Xie strode out of the study before entering the garden, but seeing black smoke rising from the western sky, he was startled: "Zen, fly!"

Li Xie tore off the clothes on his upper body, spread the wings of the blade, and immediately rose from the ground, rushing into the air, followed by Zeenard.

In the air, the view is wide, and at a glance, the place three miles outside the west gate of Chrysanthemum City is burning into the sky, and the black smoke piles up into the sky like foam, that is the location of the barracks!

"Is the barracks on fire?"

Li Xie flew quickly, and soon landed near the barracks with Zeenard. Seeing that the barracks was so hot that it could accommodate 10 people, it might burn down.

Kano and a dozen or so soldiers knelt in front of the barracks, some beating their chests, some crying out.With such a fire, few soldiers in the barracks would be able to escape.

Two more people flew from the sky, one was Fan Di with golden light; Searle, and the other was Jack with golden wings on his back after he was armored with Jin Ling Zhanji; Rothschild.

Jack was full of anger. As soon as he landed, before saluting Li Xie, he immediately roared: "Kano, what's going on!"

Kano turned around and saw that it was Li Xie, Jack and others. With tears on his face, he threw himself in front of Li Xie and knelt heavily: "My lord, Kano is guilty! Kano should die! The barracks are gone! More than 2 people The brother is inside, but he didn't come out! My lord! Kano should die!"

A dozen or so soldiers kneeling outside also rushed over and knelt on the ground, crying sadly one by one. They were not happy for their own escape, but mourned for the soldiers who were buried in the sea of ​​fire.

Li Xie's face was as gloomy as black smoke, and he said coldly: "What's going on? Tell me!"

Kano choked up and said, "Kano led the soldiers to practice in the school field, and suddenly felt a strong wave of magic, and immediately saw the flames rushing towards the sky. The fire fell from the sky and came from all around, and it was impossible to extinguish it. More than 2 soldiers , Only a dozen of us escaped. My lord, it must be a magician! It must be a ninth-level natural magician who attacked our barracks!"

"Ninth-level magician? Who is it?!" Li Xie's words squeezed through his teeth, showing how angry he was at the moment.

The barracks that had just been built, with more than 2 soldiers, were all burned down in one fire. How could he not be angry?

Kano shook his head: "My lord, Kano didn't even see who was attacking us."

Jack said coldly: "My lord, the Cheetah Legion in Sunflower City has three ninth-level natural magicians."

"Very good, very good!" Li Xie's eyes were extremely cold: "Burn my barracks and kill my soldiers! If I, Li Xie, don't drive out your Pan Sen family, I won't be called Li Xie, Jack!"

"Yes, my lord!"

"Tell me, why the ninth-level magician can easily burn our barracks, and we don't know at all! Tell me, how do you become the commander-in-chief of the evil army!"

Li Xie's roar shocked Jack to his knees: "My lord, I am guilty!"

Li Xie stared at Jack: "Whether you are guilty or not, it is not up to you, nor to me, but to the more than 2 soldiers who died! What I want to know now is why our barracks will It was burned, why we don’t know at all! You can burn the barracks today, but can you burn the city lord’s mansion tomorrow! Tell me! Why!”

Jack gritted his teeth and replied: "My lord, our barracks have just been established, and there is no emergency protection mechanism. Our soldiers are too weak to survive in the face of ninth-level fire magic. Our eyeliner has just been arranged, and it has not yet operated yet. , whoever sneaked in, we don't know. We lack magicians in our army, so we can't put out fires or resist magic immediately. And... it's the fault of the lower officials! If the lower officials are in the barracks, there is no way they will burn down the barracks , please forgive me, my lord."

"No! Your Excellency!" Kano knelt beside Jack, "It's not the commander's fault, it's Kano! Kano failed to rescue the brothers! The commander-in-chief is busy, he can't be in the barracks all the time!"

"Get up." Li Xie sighed, knowing that everything he had just established was just like a newborn baby, fragile.If someone with a heart takes a little action, it will be the situation today. "I know that I can't blame you for this. My tone was a bit too much just now. I'm sorry."

"My lord, I know you're not feeling well, and I'm not feeling well either." Jack said with cold eyes.

Not feeling well?It must be uncomfortable!

Lao Tzu's barracks, Lao Tzu's soldiers!

The Pantheons!You wait!

Li Xie buried his anger in his heart, and patted Jack on the shoulder: "You are the commander-in-chief of the evil army, no matter when, don't blame yourself for the crime, but think about how to avenge your brothers in the army , Thinking about how to make the brothers in the army live better. The barracks are gone, rebuild! Soldiers are dead, recruit again! Do a good job of appeasement. In addition, what do you think of this enemy?"

"Kill!" Kano said angrily, "Even if it is the Cheetah Legion, my lord! Kano, please be the vanguard, even if he dies in battle, he must be killed!"

Li Xie glared at him: "You know how to kill! You must take revenge. But what we should think about is not to let our revenge go deeper. We have no ability to take revenge now, so we can only bear it! Protect what we have, Don't lose more, and if you have strength in the future, you can get back your capital with interest! Jack, he declared to the outside world that the barracks were in trouble."

"Yes, my lord! Your subordinate knows how to do it."

"Well, Kano left behind to arrange for people to put out the fire. Zayn, work harder, search the whole city, there are high-level magicians, catch me alive. Jack, Fan Di, you two come back home with me."

When they came to the meeting hall of the City Lord's Mansion, the three of them sat down first and second. Li Xie squinted his eyes and said coldly: "It seems that the Pan Sen family knows His Majesty's intention to arrange me as the City Lord of Chrysanthemum City. Hmph, take advantage of my new army and give me One knife! It’s forbearance, how can I bear it? I can’t beat them in a frontal battle, but, hehe! Tell me, how many people can you kill me when the two of you, plus Zeen, go to their barracks? The premise is , you can all come back safely."

Jack shook his head and said, "My lord, the Cheetah Legion is different from us. Sunflower City has been in operation for a long time, and they can know when a master enters the city. Even if we sneak into the barracks, we can't get close to the barracks. All mature barracks must be seen at a glance from a mile away. , there are soldiers standing guard at any time, and you must be aware of any disturbance, regardless of whether it is in the sky or on the ground, if you trespass into the barracks, you will be killed, and with the strength of the three of us, we can only shout outside the barracks."

"What the hell, the frontal attack is not enough, and there is no way to sneak attack, so we have nothing to do with them?" Li Xie was very upset.

Jack sneered and said, "Although the Cheetah Legion is a regular army of the dynasty, it is actually the private soldiers of the Pan Sen family. The generals in the army are all members of the Pan Sen family. If they can kill all the generals, the [-] Cheetah Legion in Sunflower City will be defeated."

"Hey, I've thought about this a long time ago. For example, in Chrysanthemum City, if you die and I die, the group of soldiers will disperse. The same is true for the Cheetah Army. It is impossible for soldiers to spontaneously avenge their generals. The problem is that , how to kill all their generals."

Fan Di Sel said: "And we can't let them tip off the news, otherwise, our Chrysanthemum City will be in danger!"

"Well, destroying the Cheetah Army in Sunflower City is always a way. If you have time, think about how to wipe out their generals. Sooner or later we will find a way or seize the opportunity. Also, Jack, the priority now is Keep an eye out, we must never let what happened today happen again, and we must always be aware of the situation in Sun Flower City, so that we may have a chance!"

A servant came over, Li Xie said: "Master, there are soldiers asking to see Lord Rothschild."

"Tell him to come in." Watching the servants go out, Li Xie thought that he should recruit more servants. In the huge city lord's mansion, only a few servants are in charge of the small living area, and sometimes they can't even find anyone to send messages.

The soldiers quickly entered the meeting hall, and after meeting them one by one, they said: "A group of soldiers and horses were found ten miles outside the east gate, about 1000 people. Judging by the flags, they should be members of the Cheetah Legion. They are still advancing. Sir, please decide. "

"Damn it!" Li Xie slapped the armrest angrily: "They want to attack our Chrysanthemum City with 1000 people? Jack, Fan Di! Take people immediately, I don't want to see one of the 1000 people alive!"

"My lord, calm down." Jack said hastily: "It is impossible for them to directly attack Chrysanthemum City, it may be another matter, and, before we are sure, we cannot confront the Cheetah Legion head-on. They are the regular army of the dynasty, and your lord's legion belongs to Once the private army starts a frontal battle, they can directly say that we are rebelling, and immediately send troops to encircle and suppress them. Chrysanthemum City is too far away from the imperial capital, and we are afraid that we will be wiped out by then, and the imperial capital will know."

Li Xie twitched his eyebrows and said in surprise: "You mean, they only need an excuse to attack us? Then they just come up with an excuse, isn't our Chrysanthemum City very dangerous?"

"This..." Do you think that everyone is like you, killing people regardless of the consequences when they are strong enough?Dare to kill even in the court?Jack said angrily: "Don't worry, my lord, Chrysanthemum City must have your Majesty's eyeliner, and Sunflower City also has them. Unless there is an irrefutable excuse, such as us fighting them for no reason, otherwise, they will not aggressively attack Chrysanthemum City. Because once they do so Do it, the Cheetah Army has no convincing excuses, and the situation they are facing will either be punished by His Majesty, or they will have to rebel immediately."

"Well, that's okay!" Li Xie asked again: "Then what if they come to provoke us?"

Jack smiled bitterly: "If you can bear it, you can bear it. As long as they don't attack directly for no reason, we will count it as a rebellion if we send troops to them. After all, they are nominally the regular army of the dynasty."

"Hey, why does it feel like I'm being restrained everywhere, when will I be able to vent my anger!" Li Xie laughed rather self-deprecatingly, stood up and said, "Come on, let's go to the east gate to have a look, I'm afraid they are here to provoke!"
