Demon Lord

Chapter 23: Dark Assault (2)

In the dark environment, Old Gerson lit a torch, carefully escorting Sally towards the nearest Fortress of Conceton.

As a fortress at the border, Conceton is easy to defend and difficult to attack because of its tall walls. Even if there are thousands of orcs, he is not worried about any accidents. Just before coming to the village of Finkes, Old Gossen had actually sent a soldier to ventilate the letter, and asked the army to come out with the token. In other words, long before arriving at Finks Village, the Duke's daughter had decided to return to the Fortress of Conceton directly tonight.

But obviously, Sally didn't pin all her hopes on the fortress.

"I know there is a certain risk in doing this. If things are so irretrievable that the Fortress of Conceton is unable to provide me with asylum, we will immediately turn south and return to Hollier City."

I also only saw the undisguised spirit in her eyes when there were no outsiders in these four times.

Wu Shali is far from being a silly girl who takes a step at a time. She can even say that she is one of the few women in this era who have a sense of independent thinking. Flexible minded and knowledgeable, although she is a daughter, she can see that she has no loss of knowledge and ability.

The difference between Francis and Francis is that instead of choosing to be sharp, she hides in the sheath and is extremely restrained.

Old Gerson understood Sally's ability and nodded in agreement with her decision, but he still couldn't imagine that the Fortress of Conceton would be regarded as a threat by Sally. Wouldn't humans begin to kill each other for inexplicable reasons without the orc attack?

At first I remembered that Francis had shown respect and consistency to all people for more than a decade, and Old Gerson did not believe that this would become a reality.

The seven-man team marched in the dark, and their torches reflected their shadows. Perhaps they thought they had escaped from the village where the orcs were about to attack. They all relaxed their vigilance inside, and the atmosphere of the team was not tense. It can even be said to be somewhat relaxed.

Easy to hold.

But on the vast and dark plain, an undetectable shadow always followed silently in the distance.

Roddy has always kept a safe distance from the other party. The other party can't hear the horseshoes here, and it is impossible to detect that he has been followed so much. And Rordy, who was afraid that he would need to look for something, is looking at the bright and dazzling The torch sighed helplessly.

"A bunch of fools, isn't this waiting to target the enemy."

..

At the same time, the Fortress of Conceton.

"Sir! This is Miss Sally's request, you can't ignore it!"

In front of the gates of the Fortress of Conceton, the suspension bridge of the moat has just been stowed. This is the first time in several years that I have seen this fortress so actively suspend the suspension bridge that has not been pulled up for a long time. Bringing a strong sense of security to the soldiers guarded by the kingdom here, but at this time, the soldier who came for help chilled in his heart.

"Don't you understand what I said? If you can't get Miss Sally's autograph and tokens, I don't have the right to let the soldiers go out in the dark."

The rank of captain at the gate is not high, but the county magistrate is better off. Although the knight under Lord Kirk sits in the fortress, an ordinary soldier beside Sally wants to talk to the other in person. Not an easy task. But the soldier was extremely angry. He did hold Miss Sally's handwritten letter and token, but he was completely ignored by the other party!

"But."

士兵 The soldier looked back at the suspension bridge pulled up behind him. This meant that he was completely cut off from returning to the post.

"Nothing, but I think you lied about the military situation privately, trying to mobilize the army, according to military regulations ... This is a felony!"

As soon as the voice of the cricket fell, the two men rushed directly to the soldier and fell to the ground. Before he could explain it, he was stunned in the back of his head by a sword.

All this happened very suddenly. After seeing the other person fell to the ground, the captain's lips were pursed, and he seemed to be struggling, but he finally waved: "For this kind of **** posing as a soldier trying to cheat, see To one hanged one, do you understand? "

"Yes!"

The soldiers on both sides dragged each other away, and the atmosphere around them was extremely silent.

The Fortress of Conceton was supposed to be a beacon that gave people a sense of security in the dark night, but at this moment, it transformed into a beast that could choose to eat in the darkness. .

Uh ...

When midnight came, the villagers of Finks had left the village early, leaving an empty building, and at this time, a black team appeared quietly outside the village.

Their mounts were silent when running on the ground, far from the mighty momentum when the horses were galloping-fifteen orc wolf cavalry arrived on the grassy **** outside the village of Finks. According to common sense, the orcs who do not have good night vision will never choose to conduct so-called "reconnaissance" at this time, but it is obvious that today's mission is extraordinary-these wolf cavalry warriors with scimitars have a strong face and are all over their bodies. With a strong will to fight-because they are the backbone of the "Rohar's Hammer" clan, but also ... the witch doctor Sarota.

As the "real power" of Rohar's Hammer, the witch doctor Sarota has gradually gained awesome powers and abilities in recent years. Although his men are only the lowest ranks of scout infantry in these clans, The loyalty of these members to him is obvious to all.

At this moment, the wolf cavalry did not hesitate too much, rushed straight down the grass slope, and then entered the empty village.

"Master Zarota did not guess correctly."

Before they came, these orcs received instructions to "completely investigate the village" instead of "destroying the village" and were personally reminded by the witch doctor Sarota: if no village was found, report immediately.

At this time, the orc scouts had to sigh inwardly of Lord Sarrota's wisdom, and immediately turned the wolf's head and ran towards the other direction in the darkness.

Alas. .

Luo Di looked at the team that was slowing down in front of him, and gently pulled the reins, stopping his horses.

The speed of travel in the dark night is relatively slow, and at ten in the middle of the night, the team in the distance can't reach the fortress. And Roddy, who is monitoring alone, is a bit hungry, secretly rummaging through the food on the horse, trying to add some energy.

Chewing on the hard cheese dried, Rody re-examined the equipment he was carrying—two quills, horn bows, two scimitars, wearing leather and armour, which was considered fully loaded. In the past, because of his long-term solitary habit, he brought with him at least three days of rations. Touching his pocket, the voodoo dice are still inside, and after examining the character attributes, Roddy confirms that he has full health.

I looked up, and the team of Sally and others in the distance had completely stopped.

什么 What are they doing?

The Fortress of Conceton is in the field of vision, but because its outline cannot be seen at night, Roddy will not know ... Sally's team has already lost the message to the reported soldier and made a decision to stop.

Two hundred meters away, Old Gossen with a torch was looking dignified, and Sally was more helpless beside her. She took care of her platinum hair and sighed, "It looks like we can't return to Conce today. After a while, it became clear that to silence a fortress so that he would not even light a lamp, my dear brother apparently made his final decision. "

"Miss, I'll show someone-"

"Old Gerson, you understand that it is useless," Sally interrupted his words and waved unquestionably: "As originally planned, we immediately returned to Hollier City, and there was nothing he could do with his father. Make sure you continue to contain me. "

This may be the sorrow of the kingdom ’s aristocracy. Relatives, brothers and sisters have been entangled, tempted, and even barely concealed the intention of killing nakedness. Before the age of 20, she learned to survive in this invisible sword and light sword ... At this moment, Sally still has confidence in herself .

As early as two days ago, through the forces and channels that she had secretly cultivated, she knew exactly what this brother wanted to do. Acting and tempting in Wick Village, the touch of Finks Village was almost a touch, and almost everything was under the control and prediction of Sally-if the only accident and doubt was the Nolan Village's The scout captain ...

Sally is a little curious, how did that guy get the news?

But this doubt was suddenly interrupted by a question--

"what is that?!"

The soldier holding the torch couldn't see what the shadow in the distance was because the light source was near him. He just saw something vaguely passing by on the horizon in the distance.

Lao Gesen turned around and seemed to be aware of the strange atmosphere. He looked at the torches that were lit around him, and immediately found the problem, and ordered: "Stop the fire extinguisher!"

After ten seconds, the surroundings returned to darkness, and the team shrouded in silence. The guard was okay. The maid's expression was obviously frightened, and he looked around tremblingly.

"team leader--"

"Beep!"

Lao Gesen whispered, then discerned the subtle sound in the wind carefully, then his face changed suddenly.

"Damn ... Damn! It's a wolf rider! Retreat! Quickly retreat!"

The atmosphere of the team riding on the horse was tense, and everyone who tried to turn the horse's head tried to kick the belly of the horse, but because of too much force, the maid of the team fell on his back because of poor horsemanship!

But none of the soldiers dared to dismount and lift her up-they all knew what the old Gerson's warning just meant, wolf cavalry. This is definitely a nightmare for humans living on the border, not to mention the muffled sound of the wolf running in the distance at this moment has begun to become unabashed!

Sally wanted to dismount the horse and lift up the maid, but Gerson grabbed her arm, without a word, lashed her horse's buttocks, and shouted back: "Do not care! The protection lady breaks south!"

The team immediately rushed towards the Fortress of Conceton-at this moment, Gerson could only hope that the other party would retreat after seeing the human fortress, and whether the gate of the fortress would open, he did not hold too much. Great hope.

But he ran out more than a hundred meters on horseback, but he turned around and found an imminent problem: the speed of the wolf cavalry was too fast, and they ran all the way after the hillside rushed down, far more fierce than the horses just starting, and Sally Miss riding is not good ~ www.readwn.com ~ speed is a line slower than a few veterans. If you continue to maintain this speed, you will be overtaken by the wolf cavalry within half a minute-he knows the orcs' ability to throw nets. Once any cavalry is approached by them within ten meters, it is basically a dead word!

Alas, the veteran made his decision after a few seconds of silence.

He turned the horse's head to the side suddenly, and then shouted out loudly, "Everyone, draw a sword! Ready to meet the enemy!"

There are only four soldiers in total, and their thin figure is really less combative than the fifteen orc wolf cavalry rushed up not far behind. But at this time, Old Gerson didn't seem to hesitate much.

"Miss Sally, keep going, don't look back!"

After saying this, he led the young soldiers under his command to turn the team to the left, raised his sword, and rushed at the enemies who should not have appeared here.

Sally's eyes widened and she wanted to speak, but then she covered her mouth, and even bit her fingers so hard that she didn't yell out. Although young, she was smarter than ordinary people, but the words of bloodshed and sacrifice seemed to last forever. Only in those books, when everything really happened suddenly, Sally, who was not yet adolescent, accepted the soldiers' generous decision to die for themselves.

But the reason in her head told her that she must hold the reins in her hand and move on-only by living can she avenge these soldiers. Only by escaping her brother's traps and traps, these blood will not flow in vain!

Until then, Sally only faintly understood that ... the war never went away, and the fear that those veteran soldiers did not want to mention would always show its cruelty in the most sudden gesture.
