Three Philosophical Questions for Travelers

In the picture, a strong wind hit, and the black cloth on a car was blown away.Under the black cloth is a huge iron cage, where a beast with sharp horns and sharp claws is locked.

Yisruite stopped the screen, and immediately screamed out: "It's a monster!"

Fierce, the people of the Gulf who have suffered from fierce disasters all know how terrible this word is.In the Battle of Bear Mountain, everyone has also experienced the power of the fierce demon.Hyacinth stared at the ugly monster, a misshapen creature with eight legs and four hands.It is about three meters high, and the eight legs that support the body are as sharp as knives, and the four hands are octopus-like soft tentacles.It appears to have no face, just a fleshy torso.The torso was covered with thick blood vessels, and green pus flowed from the pipes.

Hyacinth felt disgusted looking at this thing, so she didn't want to find out where its face was.She turned her gaze to one side and said, "If these cages are full of fierce monsters, I think the Sea God Sect will be able to take down the Northern Guards."

Estherite nodded, and said: "It's hard to say, because... there are also types and levels of fierce monsters. I read a lot of books about fierce monsters in the academy. As far as I know, the two fierce monsters in the Battle of Bear Mountain Demons are considered high-level, especially the obsidian ogre, that thing is very powerful, and it is actually a fluke that we can defeat it. If it weren't for the dragon tendon bed crossbow hidden in Xiongshan City, we would have nothing to do with it."

"Indeed." Hyacinth nodded—but why does Xiongshan have a dragon tendon bed crossbow?Could it be that Bear Mountain was attacked by a dragon back then?

"As for the one on the screen, I've seen it in the illustrated book. It's not very powerful. It only needs ten human warriors who are not afraid of death to kill it."

Need ten fearless warriors?This is already very powerful, Hyacinth thought to himself.But after thinking about it, Isrit is the queen of orcs. To her, "ten human warriors who are not afraid of death" are probably nothing.She only needs to find three experienced orcs to defeat these people, right?

From this point of view, Yisruite really has the capital to look down on the ogre.

"The academy has some art of war that specializes in the tactics of fierce monsters, and I have read them all." Yisrit said, "I don't know the quantity and quality of the fierce monsters of the Sea God Cult, but I know that the fierce monsters that can be used to attack the city There are very few monsters. Most of these guys are tyrannical reptiles. They can't climb walls or swim. The northern guards have moats, and when they attack the city, fierce monsters don't mean much. And... many fierce monsters eat a lot Surprisingly, if they want to keep them active, they must not only feed them meat, but also feed them some herbs or precious metals. In short, ordinary people cannot afford to raise ogres. Once they are not full, ogres will gradually go dormant, and it is very difficult to wake them up again. It's troublesome. Therefore, the party using the ferocious demon must make a quick decision, they..." At this point, Estherite fell silent.

"What's wrong, sister?" Hyacinth listened eagerly.

"Do you think the northerners will stupidly go out of the city to meet the enemy?"

"What?" Hyacinth asked, "Why did you come out to meet the enemy? Is it not good to defend the city?"

"For honor." Isrit showed a subtle smile, "In other words, it is for military exploits and vanity. The northerners have been arrogant for a day or two. Now they have overwhelming strength on the surface. It will make them inflate. You see, the army in the Gulf is flanked by the Mid Valley in the south and the two guards in the north. If the two guards in the north choose to defend the city, the army in the Gulf will be swallowed up by the Duke of the Mid Valley alone. The military merits will also be monopolized."

Hyacinth said: "Why are they so sure that they can defeat the Sea God Alliance Army? Sister, you may not know that the Little Trident has defeated the northern Eagle Head City army several times in a row. The northerners must be afraid of him."

"He defeated Eagle Head City, not Double Acropolis, nor Taurus City, nor Wolf City or Wine City. The Northern Territory is not a whole. He is composed of three dukes, a king, a great knight commander and They are made up of a high priest. They use each other and despise each other. If Eagle Head City can’t do something, Double Apron City or Wolf City must try.” Isrit shook her head helplessly, “If this is the case, then But it's too stupid. Arrogance, arrogance is their original sin."

Hyacinth asked her: "Sister, where did you learn this knowledge? Do you know divination?"

"I have studied the spells of the academic school and the liberal school. The academic school is a world-oriented school. There is a lot of strategic knowledge here. And... what I said may not be right, I am just guessing." She sat on the stone bed I stood up and said, "When my child is full-fledged, I will also participate in this game."

"Sister, do you want to fight them too?"

"At least I want to take back Bear Mountain, and at least hang those two people on the city wall." She stared at the crystal ball, "But before that, I need more power, first I want...to unify the Great Swamp."

"What?" Hyacinth couldn't believe her ears. A woman could say such heroic words, which broke her cognition.

"There are more than a dozen tribes in the swamp who do not obey me. I will take them all under my command. Only in this way can I take my children to revenge."

The growth of the spirit of the Earth Mother——Israite greatly shocked Hyacinth, and she suddenly felt that she was stupid, stupid and lazy, and she was simply not as good as this elder sister.

Isrit said to her at this time: "Hyacinth, you stay here. I need a reliable person by my side."

At first Hyacinth wanted to stay, but now she said very firmly: "No, I will continue to go to the south." Soaking in hot springs will not make me grow, it will only turn me into a useless person, she thought to herself.

Islet asked in confusion, "What are you going to do in the south?"

"I want to find the real dragon!" she replied, "I have heard that young dragons have human beings as their mothers. I will find a young dragon and train it to be my mount."

Isrit smiled and said, "Then you don't need to go to the south, Hyacinth, there are dragons in the swamp."

"What? What did you say?"

"It's here." Yisrit pointed to her feet, she said with a smile,

"Who do you think set up the swamp maze? Could it be me?"

Chapter 7: King of Ten Acres

Chapter 7: King of Ten Acres

Victory was celebrated in Eagle Head City, and the sound of singing, dancing and laughter continued to be heard outside the castle.Seeing that the people in Haiwan had retreated, the nobles and nobles celebrated with their crowns and held up their wine glasses and said, "Little Trident is scared! Sharks can't climb Eagle Head City."

But the little king was not confused by this joy. He shut himself in the room and slept with his head covered day and night.Because he knew that in a few days he would not be able to sleep.

Just as he expected, today, military intelligence bulletins came like snowflakes.

The scouts and the city lords from all over the place wrote back, and the letter mentioned: The Allied Forces of the Sea God Sect at Antler Pass have approached the Northern Guards, and the Florus and Claus families have sent troops to the north.

This is as the king expected.He immediately drafted a letter, and he asked the two earls of the two Acropolis to stick to the city.Ask Earl Steka of the Eastern Guard to watch out for the small trident going south, and Earl Chester of the Western Guard to watch the Eastern Guard and provide reinforcements at any time.He repeatedly emphasized in the handbook: Don't take it lightly and go out of the city to meet the enemy.

But the little king was still worried about it.Because the Earl of the Eastern Acropolis is famous for his great achievements and vanity.If possible, the king would have wanted to replace him a long time ago, but he has inherited the East Acropolis hereditary and has not made any mistakes over the years, so the king has no reason to demote him.Besides, this man is a close confidant of the Bullland family.

The Duke of Bullland invested manpower and material resources in the East Acropolis and stationed troops all the year round, so as to restrict the Claus family and the Florus family in the south.In this case, the little king can't touch the East Acropolis.Because once the Eastern Acropolis is moved, the power of the two dukes will be out of balance. At this time, the Klaus family may have to change their minds.

Because of this, he has always kept this hidden danger.He knew: Even at this time, the Bullland family in the West Mountain and the Claus family in the plains could not share the same hatred.The two dukes have been at odds for years, and they've long wanted to break each other down.

Therefore, when Caide formulated his tactics, he not only had to consider the little trident, he also had to take into account the internal conflicts of the northern forces.As a result, things that were originally simple became very complicated.

Fuck it, the little king scolded in his heart, can't these bastards wait for the Gulf people to retreat before fighting?

After the little king finished writing the letter, he asked someone to send it with a carrier pigeon.However, the king can order the nobles to fight, but he cannot command the nobles to fight.He can only command his own blood relatives, such as the uncles and brothers of the Heworth family, such as the navy of Eaglehead Harbor, such as the property knights of Eaglehead City, such as his paladins... The people of the Three Dukes are the three For the duke, he can only say to the three dukes: "Please, my good duke, please go and fight the Gulf people." But he can't say: "You, march into the West Road, you, retreat and defend City, you, fortify the walls and clear the fields!"

If only everyone were as patriotic as Duke Icebear, he thought, but there would never be another Bean Lastall!It's a pity, but he can't die.

Bean's death is valuable, because of his death, the nobles of the Far North are now willing to assemble an army to help me defend against the enemy.Damn, this group of greedy bear cubs are really worthless.

The little king traced the map with a pen, the castle was still celebrating the victory, and the music kept playing.He couldn't help thinking: Why should I guard these fools?These people deceived me, looked down on me, and I still have to work for them?Am I fucking king?

Now the entire Northern Territory is looking forward to my death, everyone wants the Northern Territory to be broken, and then eat a big piece of meat by themselves.ha!No wonder my brother wanted to run away in the first place.

But things have to go on, the little king must guard Yingtou City, Tianhu Lake, and his ten-acre home.

He deduced the battle situation on the sand table, calculating the marching time of each army and the rhythm on the battlefield.He inferred: This war is estimated to last for several years. If the Gulf wins, it will take five years, and if the northerners want to win, it will take eight years.

Now the first battle is the battle of the northern guards.This battle is related to the balance of my South Central region. If we win this battle, we will be able to cut off the connection between the little trident and the descendants of the sea god, and then we will kill the little trident in a four-way siege.It would be best to be able to kill him, but it doesn't matter if you can't.When we marched our army into Antlers Pass, our enemies were the Reach and Stormhold...

But it would be bad if the battle was lost.The little trident will join forces with the descendants of the sea god. At this time, they will gain a firm foothold in Middle Earth, and their power will start to radiate all around.If he forms an alliance with other forces, such as Klaus, such as the southerners, then our pressure will be even greater.

At that time, bugs everywhere will be ready to move.Exlide was handed over to the Sand Scorpion to deal with it, and the barbarians in the extreme north were sent to die on the frontal battlefield.So who should Bullland in Xishan be handed over to?myself?I can only win him over, and in order to win him over, I have to make a bigger bargaining chip... No, I can't watch the Bulllands grow bigger.

All be damned!He overturned the table angrily, thinking to himself: Let the mass extinction come quickly!Go to hell!You greedy parasites!

At this moment, there was a sudden knocking sound outside.The king said, "I'm all right, let's get out!"

"No, Your Majesty!" His chief steward shouted outside, "A military situation is coming outside, it's good news!"

Good news so soon?The king could not believe his ears.At the same time, there was a burst of cheers from inside and outside the palace, which was the same as when the Little Trident retreated a few days ago.

The king frowned, he couldn't believe the sudden news.However, the cheers from outside made him have to believe it. "Come in!" he said.

The butler pushed the door open, and the old man looked happy. He said to the king, "It's the good news from Shield Axe City and Iron Gate City! Our two viscounts led their knights to defeat the little trident." He danced happily , "The lads from Harleen's family are amazing! They surrounded Little Trident from behind, cut off his foster care, and captured his soldiers."

"What the hell are you talking about?" The king was stunned.

"I say--"

"Give me the documents!" The king jumped up, "When did I have such a strong general under my command?"

The steward hastily handed the parchment to the king.Kaide picked it up and glanced at it, only to see it read: The coalition forces of Shield Axe City and Iron Gate City defeated the enemy bandits, captured 200 prisoners of war, one nobleman, killed 500 enemies, and defeated countless enemy bandits.The little trident was killed into the valley, throwing away his helmet and armor, in a state of embarrassment.

The king laughed and said, "Where did this letter come from?"

king of ten acres, two

king of ten acres, two

The steward said: "It was sent by a pigeon, with a stamp on it. And the mages also confirmed the magic brand, which was written by the Viscount himself."

"You mean it's true?"

"I don't know, but they all say it's true." The old butler never took responsibility for himself.

The little king scratched his head and said, "Who says it's true?"

"Nobles, mages, and servants and soldiers, everyone except you said it was true."

The king laughed angrily, and he said: "That is to say, for an urgent military report, first show it to the nobles, then show it to the mage, then show it to the servants and soldiers, and then show it to the poor. Finally, whores watch, beggars watch, thieves watch mercenaries, robbers watch slaves! After everyone has finished watching, it will be the turn of His Majesty the King, right?"

The butler took half a step back, lowered his head and said, "No, we wanted to bring it to you directly, but the messenger ran into the palace shouting the content of the good news, so everyone knew about it."

The king sneered, shook his head, and said, "Kill that messenger first, oh, don't let him die too comfortably. The charge is leaking military information, and he will be dealt with as espionage."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The steward saluted, and then he kept his head down, not daring to look into the king's eyes.

The king looked at the letter and said, "Whether it's true or not, it's not what you should read. I must be the first to read all information from now on, you know?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." The butler seemed unable to say anything else.

"That's right." Then the little king took the information and said, "Then talk about this stuff—this is fucking nonsense!" He threw the document away, "You pretend I don't know the Harleen family. Are you a kid? They are quite capable. They can race horses and dance swords, no problem. But can they beat the overlord across the bay? A overlord like Bugu Kahn can lose to two Maodu A child who is not full-grown? According to this, what are Hassan Heron and Duke Bean? Two useless dogs?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." The butler didn't dare to say anything else.

"Go away too!" said the king, "Fuck you all, the city is under martial law, and all celebrations will be stopped! Tell the nobles that I will give a mobilization speech before the war tonight, and ask them to come and participate."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The butler hurriedly withdrew.

"Wait a minute! You..." Call some concubines over!He almost yelled this, but he knew that now is not the time to have fun, "Forget it, let's go!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The old man left in a hurry.

The little king looked at the tables and chairs that had fallen on the ground and sighed. His Majesty the King lifted up the chairs and the table by himself, then laid out the sand table, mixed the ink, and spread the parchment paper... By the time all this was done, he was already tired. sweat.

"I'm a bullshit king," he said to himself.

Then he wrote back to the Harleen family.The king knew that this letter must be true. Although it was watery, "the enemy was defeated" was a fact.They must have won the Little Trident in a certain concept, and then exaggerated this fact to claim credit.After all, since the Gulflands and the Northern Territory went to war, the Northern Territory has never defeated the Little Trident head-on.Everyone wants this first achievement.

Don't these guys know how to be afraid?The king thought to himself, these idiots will not know the seriousness of the matter until Eagle Head City is broken!

Brother Harleen, at most they seized some food and captured some stragglers. How can this be called a great victory?

Is the little trident careless?

Or is this another conspiracy of the prime minister?

The king, who was thousands of miles away, didn't know what was going on on the battlefield. He didn't have clairvoyance—Exlide might have it, but the cultist never refused to admit it, let alone lend it to the king.

He can only rely on the sand table to imagine for himself.

If he bluffed, what was the point of bluffing?Is it to make us careless and arouse the arrogance of the nobility?

Cheers came from outside again, the little king smiled wryly, thinking: If this is the case, then he is too successful.

That night, the king made a very serious pre-war mobilization in the hall.He warned the people not to be fooled by the victory, and that the forces of Bakr Kahn were still strong.He also told the story of an ancient king who was defeated by underestimating his enemy.However, people just agreed with their mouths, but no one really cared about what he said.

My words won't work, the little king knows it well.Most of the northern warriors laughed at him behind his back for his cowardice and cowardice, while other nobles thought he was too pessimistic.No one heard it, and the atmosphere in the castle was still very relaxed.

And when the king declared martial law, the nobles were strongly dissatisfied.The two counts asked him why the city was under martial law when the enemy was repulsed?The little king could only use some innocuous official words to perfuse him.

In the end, the meeting broke up unhappy, and the king failed to make people aware of the seriousness of the problem, but instead aroused people's dissatisfaction.

What a bunch of stupid dogs, the king thought as he lay on his bed: I've had enough of them.

In the early hours of the morning, he was really sleepy, so he went back to the bedroom to rest.Of course, he didn't go back to Tianhu, but went to find the big bed in the palace.The little king hated this place, the big room, the big windows and the big bed.Lying alone on the bed, he thought to himself: I should invite all the princesses.

He likes to sleep on the small bed with the two concubines with the softest bodies, so that he can be tightly sandwiched between them, feeling that his body and mind are filled and full of security.

At this moment, he shook the bell and the concubines came back, but he was holding the bell, but he didn't shake it for a long time.

Sex will only make me more tired, he thought to himself, I must cherish the time to recharge my batteries, this is not the time for pleasure.

Finally he locked the bell in a drawer and swore not to touch it.

The next day, the little king woke up early, washed himself up, and after breakfast, he went to the study to do his work.However, he was stopped by the housekeeper on the way, and the old man said to him tremblingly: "Your Majesty, the messenger at the station has sent a good news."

"Oh?" The king glanced at him with one right eye. "Another good news? Has anyone read it this time?"

"No! I detained that guy as soon as he entered the city. I only knew it was a good news, and I brought it to you immediately." The old man handed the letter to the king.

"It's almost there."

The king took the good news and looked at it, and found that it was similar to the last one.This time, the person who "broke the little trident" was replaced by Bullland's nephew, saying that he destroyed the siege engine of the little trident, captured many laborers, and seized a batch of war horses.The king laughed: "Dare you dare to send you a birthday cake?"How could anyone be able to take a piece of meat out of the Overlord's mouth?
