Chapter 344 Chapter 347 Sending away the old lord

The veteran returned in the middle of the night, crying when he saw his family. In addition to the time spent fighting in the Infinite Labyrinth before the closure of the city, they had not returned for more than 80 years, and their hearts were naturally filled with emotion. Although there are still important tasks, the veterans also need to express their inner emotions and relieve their psychological burden on the first night. The first thing in the morning of the second day, Lord Neil announced that he would hold a war situation meeting in the afternoon to discuss with them the attack on the Black Tower of Dreads.

As Weapons Master, Tormund Steelcast knew he had to attend this meeting. He would be Lord Neal's main advisor and staff, reviewing and reviewing various combat options. Tormund knew something was going to happen when he was notified of the meeting. He thinks these Old Partners will be a little too anxious, and now is not the best time. But on the other hand, the soldiers are very fast, and perhaps such a raid can best reduce the loss of Jiangu City.

Since it will definitely be opened, the problem is to let Dagon know. Tormund thought about it for a long time, he didn't even eat breakfast, and came to the courtyard alone. He grooms his bear lizard, Kuku, when he needs to think about something, which calms him down and relieves fatigue immensely. Kuku is also very well-behaved. Even if the comb in Tormund's hand stops moving, it will gently twist its body to actively rub on it, so that the eternal Knight can relatively enjoy the "combing" fun.

After thinking about it, Tormund decided to take Dagon with him. He rode on Kuku, ready to go to those Old Partners to talk about his thoughts. Just before he went out, the lord sent someone to summon him, saying that there was an important military situation that needed to be discussed and must be reported immediately.

"Dagon, come with me." Tormund made a quick decision. "Bring all your gear, you are my escort and staff today. Corona, you go to Dolton's house and tell them that Dagon and I are going to the Lord's Mansion. Sary Dolton should be at home, mainly to tell her."

"Sari the Axe, she's back?" Corona's eyes shone, and she said, "Okay, I'll go. I haven't seen her in years, and we used to wrestle together! Hey Tormund, Take this pancake with you. You didn't eat in the morning, fill up a few mouthfuls on the way. Dagon, take care of your dad!"

Dagon picked up the first hunting axe, nodded.

Heavy weapons like the first hunting axe cannot be brought into the lord's mansion. Even if the weapon master is accompanied, they can only be unloaded at the entrance of the inner court. Some obvious weapons could not be brought in either, so Dagon unloaded a two-handed hammer, an armor piercing mace, a short broadsword, five throwing knives, four throwing axes, and two bootlegs. Daggers, a set of slingshots and projectiles. When he took out the dwarf boy from behind, Dagon had an idea and said that this was a magic weapon, not a weapon.

"The magic weapon? Let me check."

There are three guards at the door, their Captain is chatting with Tormund, laughing and saying that Dagon really has Tormund's style, With so many weapons on the body, the next weapon Master is properly. Of course Tormund is proud, not for performance, but from the heart. He was also interested in the dwarf boy that Dagon took out, and after looking back and forth a few times, he said, "What is this? Look at the array here and the symbol of the sacred emblem of Ori." Dagon generously handed the dwarf guy over and said, "If it's a weapon, yes, it hurts to hit someone's head. Part of it is still pure gold. It's done, but it's all inside, to hold the array. If it's a weapon, the adamantine should also be outside and cutting edge."

"That makes sense. There's a mechanism here, What happens if you pull it?" The guard found the trigger to fire.

"It will trigger the mechanism inside and make the array activate. But if you flip it, you have to know the corresponding dive technique incantation, otherwise it's just a stick." Dagon was telling the truth, even if A Jiangu investigator stood in front of him, and he would be very calm.

"Okay. Dagon came back from outside, we've been locked down for so long, it's normal that we haven't seen the new rune artifact, so I just brought something new for the fief lord to see. Besides, I really want to It's useless to confiscate all the weapons, this is the future weapon Master, are you going to confiscate him?"

Dagon nodded and said, "It's not much use to tie me with ropes or chains, I can Get out with the dive technique..."

"Showing off here again!" Tormund tapped Dagon's leg with his crutches and said, "Be humble and don't go out for a spin and feel what's wrong with yourself. Like! Listen carefully and study hard for a while, and I won't let you speak, so just shut up!"

The guard returned the dwarf boy to Dagon and allowed him to enter with the magic weapon. The instrument is a sacred item, kept by the priest, and generally does not leave the body. Jiangu City is the hometown of the Aoli God, and it respects the magical instruments of Aoli belief, and it is not easy to confiscate or escort them.

With the shotgun on him, Dagon has a heart no matter what happens. He only had twenty rounds of cannonball due to the difficulty of making bullets, but when the time was right, that was twenty lives.

They came to the Situation Room. In addition to Lord Antoine and his four guards who followed closely, six craftsmen were making sand tables. Tormund glanced at it. From the outline of the terrain, it seemed to be the white sword edge in the north of Jiangu's territory and the terrain near Qiaoxi Town. There was a black lacquered minaret in the corner of the sand table, which must represent the black tower of Dinosaurs.

Antoine was stunned when he saw Dagon, then laughed. "Okay, you sneaked in again! Why, are there so many holes in the defense line of Jiangu City? You are so big and you can get in?"

"fief lord, hehe..." Dagon scratched Scratching his head, he simply used laughter to ease the embarrassment.

"Don't be so cautious, Jiangu City has been unblocked. Since we can send troops out to fight and win honor for the Jiangu clan and Jiangu City, we should allow people from this city to come in. Go through the main gate later, Does Dagon know?"

Dagon nods, then stands behind Tormund.

"Go and stand by the wall, listen well over there, and study hard." Tormund pointed to a place with his crutch, and then said to Antoine, "I'll bring him here and let him learn The ability of some weapon masters. This kid is very good, I am very optimistic about him."

"Well, I am also very optimistic about him, many people are very optimistic about him, thinking that he will be the next weapon master. "Antoine said with a smile:" But today's focus is not on him, but on the Black Tower of Fears. The king of election has issued a call for a great lord that can only be used once every 50 years, and Jiangu City needs to respond. A rough plan It was us who joined the Alliance Army and followed the elves to attack the Black Tower of Dreads. The elves are responsible for transporting them from the air."

"The Flying City?" Tormund asked, "How many flying cities did the elves go out of? How many troops are there on the elected king's side?"

"The elves have sent seven flying cities, and the number of troops on our side will not be less than one battle of Gamor City." Antoine said: "Dreads The black tower has always been a thorn in the side of the Jiangu tribe. It stands in the north and always poses a threat. The election king has to always send a large army to defend it. If it can be solved, then the infinite labyrinth can be supported.”

"Well, I understand the meaning of this, but what should I do? Is there a plan?"

Antoine shook his head and said: "The election king sent a team to convey the message, and they will Arrived tomorrow. Just in time for the wind hunters to come back, I need to hear their opinions too. But before I discuss everything, I have to talk to you first, you can tell me what you think. Be bold, you can say anything, I We need to have an idea of what's going on in the black tower of Dagon."

Dagon rolled the eyes: Co-authoring, you have no idea! Then dare to agree to the call for the election of the king?

Dagon no longer knows a thing or two about politics after being taught history at the elite Academy. The high lord summoning order can be used once every fifty years, and each time is for one year. During this year, each high lord will gather the maximum force to assist the election of the king in battle. If it is more than one year, then the election king can no longer let the lords send troops for free, either pay to hire, or exempt the tax burden of responding to the lord.

From a legal point of view, Jiangu City is still in a "closed city" state, so there are reasons to ignore this call. This will definitely be scolded and his face will be dull, but no one can say that Jiangu City has broken its promise and made a loss of honor, let alone accuse Jiangu City of rebelling. Dagon thought to himself: If he was the lord, he would definitely not participate in the battle at this time, it would be best to rest and recuperate. Compared with the coalition forces, Jiangu City's current strength is not much, and it doesn't matter much if they are less.

Tormund explained to Antoine the terrain around the Black Tower of Dreadnought by relying on the model of the sand table, and explained the situation. Dagon listened silently, and the words that appeared the most were: This information was XXX years ago, and no one knows what it has become now - except the elves.

Dagon heard it, Tormund was implying that this operation was actually all arranged by the elves, from intelligence to the offensive and retreat routes, including logistical supplies, all under the control of the elves. He also expressed his concern about the flying city. The Jiangu overwhelming majority cannot afford to fly, so no matter how prepared this operation is, it will be cutting off one's means of retreat, only victory and not defeat.

"fief lord, this time action, the elves must be the main force. They are familiar with the flying city and have empty knights, and the ground near the black tower of the fears does not allow the Jiangu army to launch at all. Therefore, this battle There is only one way to play: Elves use air power to completely overwhelm the enemy, gain absolute superiority, and be able to establish a solid perimeter for ground troops before they can be dispatched to log in and deploy. Failing that, the battle will be There will be nine deaths and still alive, and there is almost no chance of success."

"It's just that the probability is very small, so it's not impossible, and the Spirit King and the election king also know that this time the battle is very important and must be completed. In the battle of Yu Yi, there can be no mistakes. In fact, there is no certain success in the world. No matter how well-planned the previous plan, there is always the possibility of mistakes. You will not stop because of this, and neither will I.”

Antoine looked at the sand table curl one's lip in the black tower of Dreads, shook his head slightly, then straightened up and looked directly at Tormund. He said: "The Hunters of the Wind, the elite team of Igor Neil in the past, also made a great name in the Infinite Labyrinth. This time they came back, not just for the Black Tower of Dreads. They only guarded Iger. Interested in the place of sacrifice, black tower...it's not simple at all."

Antoine glanced at Dagon, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and a strange smile appeared. He then said to Tormund, "I've been informed that they are trying to overthrow me and make Dagon their lord. Tormund, is that the case?"
