Shaman from Afar

The long silence.

The roaring cold wind and the flying snow suddenly stopped above the pit of the abyss-just like time is still.

Without falling or flying, the crystal snowflakes just stopped in the air. Gently reach out and touch, you can create a space without snowflakes in the air.

It's like erasing the writing on the blackboard.

The eagle king raised his corner of his mouth gracefully, as if he had forgotten the purpose of this trip. He was playing with the motionless snowflakes on the spot, feeling the cold touch melting in the palm of his hand.

After a long time, the aging voice sounded again.

"Then how can we be sure that when you have that opportunity, you will not choose to become the second" black cross "?"

The Eagle King chuckled and shook his head: "No, I can't-it's better to say that because I don't believe that I can refuse that temptation, I will be sure that the stranger will not refuse."

"what!"

The bitter and mean "Ender" Diabo sneered: "It's still an honest despicable person!"

"Desire and greed are our nature-as the ancestors of human and elven blood, shouldn't you be more clear?"

Taking a deep breath, the eagle king did not flinch: "Acknowledge your sins, face the ugly and despicable self, stand in the abyss and look up at the only light-this is the teaching you left to us, but remember it in your heart. "

Diabo's voice disappeared.

"As you said, even if we trust you, the result is only to create a second black cross!" Gewait, the upright "tyrant" Shen said:

"So why do we distrust strangers who already have the ability to defeat the Black Cross and end this disaster?"

"Because if you choose him, you are in the hands of a stranger."

The Eagle King seems to have expected this question for a long time, and whispered with a bit of sarcasm: "You ... let us face the reality, you ... It is no longer you who destroyed the dragon kingdom."

"That terrible war made you lose most of your power and became a scapegoat in the Black Cross plan-if there is no accident, even if the world is saved, your fate will not change. "

"Under the glory of the" savior "of the new world, the image of the" devil "exists on the edge of the world, maintaining its own existence with fear, showing the light and greatness, justice and fairness of the" savior "."

The eagle king said coldly: "Yes, in fact, you have long been desperate-so when the rest of the evil gods either fell, or gave up, or struggled to try to get rid of this world's fate, time and again against the Black Cross plan when……"

"You stand by and watch! You mechanically manipulate the poor ghosts desperate for fate to become your apostles and use their hands to maintain the value of the last little existence."

"Because you know that whether the Holy Cross or another savior changes the world, the ending will be no different for you-only for the Black Cross that intends to put this world in its palm, your existence is worthless!"

Suddenly raised his head, the eagle king's eyes flashed with excitement:

"But you still haven't given up--not the kind of decisive resistance to fate, but an attempt to use this kind of 'selling pity' to reduce your sense of presence; begging that in the eyes of the Black Cross, you still have a little Worth it! "

"Be realistic. It's not me who really needs help, but you!"

"And I have brought this last opportunity to you!"

"If ... you really intend to turn a blind eye, unless you really feel at ease to deliver the world you once struggled and finally survived to a stranger who has no dependence on her, no emotion or even care ..."

The eagle king said coldly: "So then."

"As part of this world, I will fight to the last moment for the future in my heart!"

Deadly.

With a sneer, the eagle king staring at him looked at the evil gods "hidden" around him, waiting for their final reply.

"As the leader of the Azores, you showed your courage."

In a sad tone, the "unbelievers" whispered in a very difficult tone: "But it also proves that one thing is that we believe in your consequences, just creating a second black cross."

"Yes, so ... I don't need you to trust me." The Eagle King raised his head with a deep voice in his chest: "I just need you to lend me strength-let me be your four common 'Apostles', That way ... my life and death will be held together by you! "

"Every thought, every thought, even the memories of the past, the fragments flashing in my mind ... will be presented in front of you without reservation; if I plan to betray you, the end will be that we will all die together! "

"Put all my life and death into my hands and let you decide-this is my sincerity!"

After finishing speaking, he raised his eyes: "How?"

"Did we ... meet the conditions ?!"

Did not respond to his voice.

Only the rest of the snowstorm screamed again above the abyss of the giant pit.

…………………………

"The army must be withdrawn immediately, and the whole army will retreat behind the wall of the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain.

Valley of Blood Skeleton, the hall of the Citadel of Floating City-almost after the dark-haired wizard spoke of the shock of the four seats, the legion commander sent by Dresis stepped forward and roared out with undoubted tone. :

"I have no intention to question the bravery of all of you here, but the fact is that we have less than 10,000 troops, and the enemy's strength is never lower than 100,000 every time the monster invades! Fighting against ten times the enemy at the bottom of such an open mountain pass, That's self-defeating! "

The counts of Byrne who were present frowned, expressing great disapproval of this "retreat without war", but at least did not stand up and clap the table, blaming it loudly.

The reason is also very simple, because the infantry commander sent by Connor to serve as "Duke's adjutant" is one of the few vowed knights in the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain, and his resume and experience are second only to the knight in command. Lord Naze.

There may be dissatisfaction with the church within the Sacrament Empire, but none of them dared to stand up and accuse the "Oath Knight" of deserters.

Loren actually agrees with the vowed knight's point of view-when an unexpected situation prevents the plan from proceeding, the decisive choice to retreat seems to be very "cowardly", but at least it can stop the loss to the maximum extent.

If there were no surprises, he would certainly do the same.

"Can you stop the invasion of the monster by staying at the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain?" Gerant, Earl of the Glorious Tower, interjected abruptly:

"Brandon, the 'sage of the sixth generation, and Charlotte, the queen of the mad dragon, the tenth generation, the commander of the two largest monsters invaded, they did not choose to stay on a fortress, but decisively went north. , Assemble the army and face the enemy of the empire, and win in one battle! "

"you……"

Before the oath was finished, the glorious Earl rushed forward and stood in front of him!

"I propose to invite the Duke to lead us to stay in the Valley of Blood Skeleton and send heralds to His Majesty Connold of the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain, as well as his home country for help-imitating His Majesty the High Emperor of all dynasties, to decide the victory or defeat with World War I!"

"Right now we occupy the upper part of the Valley of Blood Skeleton, standing high, with projecting weapons and protective walls to resist the messy monsters; and then the Bayern Knights and the Warriors of Poi form a wall-mounted charge, enough to smash any attack instantly!"

The Bayern knights who were present looked at each other, and their hot eyes looked at Loren very neatly-they were the first to stand alone, defend the enemy, and then destroy the enemy with an irresistible charge ...

It is a decisive battle method tailor-made for the Bayern.

But to their disappointment, the Duke did not immediately nod in agreement-on the contrary, today's Loren was surprisingly quiet, not shining brightly or undecided.

"Actor." The dark-haired wizard looked at the Earl of Fury, who bowed his head silently:

"What do you think?"

Earl of Eckert, who had just led the three thousand Byrne knights to the castle, looked at the map on the table and thought for a moment before raising his eyes.

"The key to defending or retreating is whether we are going to fight a few battles." Earl of the Fury said seriously: "From the current situation, I am afraid that the main force of the Azores elves is still in the west of the Blood Skull Valley-attacking our hussars The Icefield werewolf should have been expelled here by them. "

Everyone present nodded silently, very much in agreement with the analysis of the Earl of Fury.

"Then the next question is whether this sudden" invasion of monsters "has anything to do with the Azores-if not, I actually agree to evacuate the Blood Skeleton Valley as soon as possible and rely on the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain to stay dead . "

Speaking, Eckert glanced at the vow knight:

"The most important thing is that because the Azores must capture the fortress as soon as possible, they will inevitably conflict with the army of monsters going south; the empire can hit two enemies without a single soldier."

"We do n’t even have to worry about the Azores retreating, hiding in the ice field and waiting for the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain to be attacked by monsters-they travel long distances and are scarce; they dare to do this, and the only way out is to starve to death in the ice field Just die. "

Hearing this sentence, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became eager a lot, and even a lot of "malicious full" smiles appeared on the faces of the Bayern Knights.

"But ... if this monster invasion is related to them, the situation will be very different." Eckert replied:

"I have reviewed the materials and books of the ancient empire about the invasion of monsters, and made a trivial discovery-that is, any monster invasion that is so large that it needs the strength of the entire empire to resist, has never been spent on the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain."

"Either the sixth generation or the tenth generation, it is not the emperors who do n’t want to wait for work, but the broken boundary fortress on the open plains that ca n’t be supported in any other direction. The width of the battlefield is too narrow. If you want to defeat the monster, it will become The battle of attrition in digital stacking. "

"Beyond consumption, the empire can never compare with monsters and evil spirits!"

The atmosphere that was just eager for a few minutes suddenly turned cold.

Is this monster invasion related to the Azores? None of the people present had evidence, but in fact, anyone who is a little sane and understands thinking already knows.

It doesn't matter ... that's impossible.

If it doesn't matter, why would the eagle king of the Azores take the risk of dying, straddling the Arctic Ice Field in the winter season and attacking the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain from the north?

No need at all!

He has already captured the gray water bay of the westernmost fortress of the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain, and he can take the opportunity to go south and break into the imperial hinterland of East Sackland from the border of Eboden-East Sakland, which is currently in civil war, is definitely not the case An opponent of 40,000 Azores!

Then the purpose of the enemy is very clear.

Perhaps it was long anticipated, or it was simply that they colluded with the evil spirits, causing this invasion of monsters with no warning at all-to break through the Fortress of Mountain Boundary, to invade East Saklan from north to south, sweep Poi, and finally with other The two Azoreian elf troops together besieged the imperial capital of Golovin.

Now it seems that this possibility is not only possible, but also very great!

"What about the other people ... do you have any other opinions?" Loren whispered, turning his gaze to the always silent Earl of Glenfort, Fort Storm.

"I don't think ... must give up the plan to control the Valley of Blood Skeleton."

Grenville, who noticed Loren's attention, smiled and said: "Since the enemy wants us to hide behind the fortress, then it would be the best choice not to let them be satisfied."

"Furthermore, I think it should be requested to send reinforcements to His Highness Brandon of East Sackland, Boe and Byrne, and even Arles, and ask them to send reinforcements as soon as possible to reinforce the Boundary Mountain Fortress."

"Whether it is to defeat the Azores under the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain first, or after blocking the invasion of the monster, the Bain army goes south and the Warriors of the Boundary Mountain to attack the elf warriors. Our current strength is far from enough to hold this at the same time. But neither area can be easily let go. "

With that said, Glenwell looked seriously at the dark-haired wizard: "Please ask the Duke to lead us and fight against the evil spirits of the North in the Valley of Blood Skeletons!"

His words were full of decisiveness ~ www.readwn.com ~ A very dignified atmosphere filled the hall as if it were substance, and even Eckert, Earl of the Fury Castle, could not help but frown slightly, his expression complex.

This is no longer a gambling-to meet the army of tens of thousands or even 100,000 with the elite of less than 10,000, unless you have absolute confidence and grasp, a full and detailed plan, otherwise ...

Just die.

Eckert firmly believes that Loren Turin is not the kind of person who is passionate about death; he may take risks, and may try to solve a war with the least cost, but he will never be unprepared. , Especially if you do n’t need to put yourself in danger.

and so……

"Everyone, I have decided." The dark-haired wizard spoke slowly, and said in a decisive tone:

"We are in the Valley of Blood, confront them, and ..."

"Destroy them!"
