Chapter 1026
"Want me to go?!"
In the behind bars of Floating Void City, the shocked female warrior Alexandra almost fights I tried my best to suppress the consternation in my heart, and stared at Lu Sien in front of me:
"You, you are... are you trying to secretly let me go?"
The gray pupil was paused, and seemed to be surprised by the attitude of the other party. It was nodded a second later to indicate that it was the case.
So Alysandra said the second question that was almost nonsense, but wanted to ask in particular.
"Why?"
"Because I may not be able to fulfill my previous promise anymore." The reasons are complicated, but Lucien explained as simple as possible: "Master Loren …Because of certain things, I have made up my mind to no longer tolerate the Azores captives; as his guard, I must carry out all his orders."
"If you continue to stay here, the only fate It's just death."
The female elf shuddered when she heard the gray-eyed boy in front of her say these words so coldly.
After all, a glorious death in battle and being executed by the enemy without being able to resist are two completely different situations.
"But... let me go, isn't it also against your master's order?" The worried Alexandra still stared at Lucien's face, hoping to get an answer:
"What's more, this is the strongest fortress of your empire. What can I do to escape?"
These are two questions. Lu Sien decided to answer her first. one.
"The army led by your Majesty Xiong Yingwang is now on the glacier wasteland outside the fortress; just a few days ago, they had just wiped out the last reconnaissance team of the empire." Grey pupil The teenager said solemnly: "The emperor in the fortress is preparing to fight back with my master and another duke."
"So tonight the fortress will be messy, and it's your last chance to leave; of course , I’m not saying that you can run very easily, even if you are not found, there are trenches, stubs, pits outside the gate of the fortress...In short, there are countless traps."
"But at least I kept my promise-after getting the warrior's way, I will return you to freedom."
Alysandra's expression is slightly trembled.
Didn't expect …This human being, he actually kept his promise; she had been prepared that the other party would threaten and seduce her, and then she would rather die than prepare.
The opposite Lucian waited silently, but there was already a somewhat impatient expression on his face.
After a moment of hesitation, Alexandra still tried to lifts the head and asked quietly: "Then...how do you explain to your master?"
"Very Simple, I told him." Gray pupil replied casually.
"What, what?!"
Alysandra was completely shocked.
"Yes, I told him that this was all arranged by me-you were the bait that I released to attract the elven army in the glacier wasteland to the bait." Lu Sien shrugged. "So he agreed, because right now he and the emperor really need this information."
"so that's how it is..."
The surprised female elf expression suddenly furious. "So you don’t want to let me go, but you want to use me?! I..."
"It depends on what you think." Lu Sien interrupted her unceremoniously. :
"I will send two Fiend hunters to follow you; you can try to get rid of them, or kill them-although I don't think you can do the latter thing temporarily. "
"But this is an opportunity anyway, try or not, just do whatever you want...I have unlocked your shackles, and I will not close the door; to leave...Only tonight."
After speaking, the gray pupil turned his head and left, leaving the keys to the shackles and bars to the side.
Only Alexandra herself was left in the cell, staring blankly at the Duanjie Mountain towering into the clouds outside the iron windows, and the stars gleaming in the sky, free and easy.
Do you want...?
This is definitely a trap. They want to use themselves to find clues about the Eagle's army; but anyway, it is also an opportunity; after tonight, if they don’t leave, then they will not use them at all. value.
In that way... I'm dead.
Death...or there's no resistance, the fear that life and death are controlled by others, has plunged Alexandra into a huge contradiction.
But if you survive, it should be more beneficial to your Majesty Xiong Yingwang... right?
At this moment, the chief lieutenant of the supervisory court lit up, as if thinking of the key to the problem.
Yes, I have a lot of information about the imperial army—the enemy’s strength, the next deployment, the defense system of the fortress, and their private plans... These should be all for your Majesty Is very useful.
I didn’t want to run away for the life of Gou Quan, I wanted to be loyal to His Majesty Xiong Yingwang, and for the life and death of the Azores!
took a deep breath, trembling slightly, Alexandra struggled to stand up, busy picking up the cell key on the ground.
At this moment, Alexandra has no more fear in her heart; at this moment, there is only one thing left in her mind.
Find Your Majesty Xiong Yingwang, and let your Majesty know all the information you have collected, as well as the process and results of the Battle of Eboden!
…………………………
"Did you succeed?"
The quiet Floating Void City tower top, Dalton Kander stares at The gray-eyed boy who came up from the stairs asked blankly.
"One minute ago, she had just climbed over the city wall of the fortress of Duojieshan, now she is probably trying to get around those trenches and pits, right?"
Lu Sien replied: "I have sent four Fiend hunters to follow-two light and two dark, I won't be lost."
"What about the intelligence?"
"The information that should be revealed has been revealed. ——The layout of the fortress system, how many troops are there, and the next deployment, there is no problem."
"Tell her?"
"I said, but I only told her that there will be Two people follow."
"Will it be found?"
"If you cooperate well, no; if there is an accident, there are also remedies."
"Is it confirmed?"
"It has been checked twice, and all were executed according to the original plan.
Dalton slightly nodded, looking into the distance with a deep gaze The glacier wasteland immersed in the night, silently turned and walked down the stairs.
"Master Dalton! "
Looking at the other party about to leave, Lu Sien, who has been holding the words in his heart, couldn't help but call the other party, and asked with a tangled expression:
"Why can you guess , Alexandra will definitely leave? ! "
Dalton stopped, looked back silently, and glanced at Lucien:
"Because I know. "
This kind of unintelligible "answer" made the gray pupil's expression even more tangled.
"When there is a chance to live, no one wants to be Kill-even if they know it is a trap, in order to gain a glimmer of hope for survival, they will take the initiative to jump in. "
After meeting with Lut Infinite, Dalton · Kander's biggest change is that he is willing to patiently explain the reasons to others: "If we don’t explain to her, maybe she will hesitate ; But when we showdown, there are only two choices left for her. "
"Dead or live; she doesn't want to die, so she will definitely choose the latter. "
"But it doesn't make sense! "Lu Sien continued to ask: "I...I don't mean to say how brave she is, but she is really not afraid of death!" "
"Not afraid of death, and wanting to die or not wanting to die are two completely different concepts. "Dalton Kander shook his head: "What is the purpose of the Azorean elves starting this war?" "
"Uh...for the sake of life and death? "
It took a lot of effort before Lucien remembered this sentence in his mind.
"In other words, whether it is survival or death, in the Azores Spiritual eyes are also a very important thing-in this regard, they are no different from human beings. "Dalton whispered:
"So the common principle for humans is as common to the elves at this point; as long as there is still the possibility of continuing to live, as long as they have not lost their desire to survive, they will Recklessly make sure that you are alive. "
"The reason-since she knows this is a trap, what reason does she have to obey our ideas?" "
Lu Sien still doesn't understand.
"The reason? "
Dalton Kander's gaze narrowed, thinking about what he had thought of, his expression was a little dazed: "Lu Sien...human beings, no matter how you conceal your emotions, everything we do is very good." Nine are all made by desires and emotions generated by the body. "
"The rationality placed on it can actually make very limited changes; and its most frequent role is to provide a motivation or excuse for behavior. "
"So the reason for this thing is a means to deceive others or deceive oneself after the fact; as long as it is confirmed that a person's thoughts are still in line with a natural person's normal thinking, and he has not fallen into a state of mental disorder... "
"The reason...not important at all. "
After speaking, Dalton didn't care whether the gray pupil really understood, he turned and walked down the stairs; after a full minute, the contemplative Lu Sien came back to his senses, I’m busy to keep up.
In the "Castle Hall" of Floating Void City, the black hair wizard is also doing the final preparations before departure.
"Because your Majesty Connold Must be stationed at Duanjieshan Fortress, so I will be fully responsible for all the deployment of this war. "
Before the round table, Loren glanced around at all the generals and commanders around him: "If you have any needs or difficulties, please speak up now. "
At the other end of the round table, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.
The first person who spoke was Storm Castle count Ayton Glenwell.
"What is the purpose of this battle, is it just to establish a stable outpost and barracks near the Valley of Blood Skeletons? "
"Yes...nor. "Loren nodded: "We need to build two or three camps in the Valley of Blood Skeletons that can accommodate at least three thousand people and horses, and cooperate with Floating Void City to complete a large-scale reconnaissance to determine the location of the Azores Elf army. "
"Of course, this will definitely attract the enemy's attention, so we must be prepared to resist the enemy's siege; even when necessary, help the Dujieshan Fortress share part of the pressure to ensure the fortress Will not fall. "
"How many troops do we have?" "
This is what count Eckert is most concerned about in Crimson Blood Castle: "In addition to Byrne's five thousand troops, Floating Void City and Crimson Giant Dragon Grum, how much support can they get from the fortress?" "
"Emperor Connold will provide us with two thousand Legion soldiers, and the same goes for Grand Duchess Sarika Jonah, two thousand hussars. "Loren said solemnly:
"Of course, the price is the wizards and alchemists we brought. We must leave a considerable part to help the Brokenfield Mountain Fortress, continue to strengthen the defense, and provide logistics during the war. And medical support. "
Acte count slowly nodded and expressed no objection to this decision.
"In other words, the total number of troops deployed this time is nearly 10,000, of which 7,000 are all cavalry? "Lake Center City count Lanmalos frowned slightly: "And it's still in the Valley of Blood Skeletons, where no supplies are at all. In this case, wouldn't our logistics be very dangerous." "
"Floating Void City can reserve the amount of food and grass that the entire army can hold for a month or so. "Loren continued: "The Duanjieshan Fortress will form a 500-person squad, which will use sledges and carriages to carry supplies, and provide us with supplies once a day, at the time of each evening. "
Everyone's expressions were slightly startled, and then they understood that this is a trap, enticing the elves to attack the baggage.
If they succeed, they will mistakenly think that the camp is out of food;
If it fails... the army of Blood Skeleton Valley will be able to complete the previous mission and get information about Xiong Yingwang's army from the captives. It can be described as one move, two gains.
"Uh...I have one question. "Lu Sien, who just walked in, tentatively raised his right hand looked towards black hair wizard: "If I remember correctly, it takes a large number of wizards and dwarf craftsmen to cooperate to complete the operation of Floating Void City; the wizards Loan the fortress, how do we start Floating Void City? "
"This..."
"This is not a problem at all, okay? ! "
Before Loren finished speaking, Isaac already snatched and said: "I and Ai...Ain Rand are there, as long as there are seven or eight potatoes-I mean the wizard, it's enough. Not so many people! "
But the black hair wizard looked at him and shook the head.
"No, Isaac, you must stay in the fortress of Broken Boundary Mountain. "
"What? ! "
"This is Connaught's request, but...in fact, I think so too. Loren looked at Isaac calmly: "Because the fortress of Broken Boundary Mountain cannot be lost, I can be more assured if you stay." "
"But what can I do if I leave this ghost place? "Isaac didn't understand at all: "That bunch of potatoes... I mean an alchemist, and I don't even understand what I say; Boye's grandfather?" A little better than the female monkey is limited; the cavalry Captain of that fortress? If he can eat and drink, I doubt if he is a living person, and Emperor Connaught..."
"Lina Desalion's cousin! Loren stared at him: "In other words, it's your eldest cousin--and he gave you the title of Knight. Under pressure, Lena married your benefactor!" "
After ten seconds of silence, Isaac was finally discouraged: "Well, I get it — for Lena's face, I will try to help him defend the city." "
"Thank you. With a sigh, Loren glanced at the people present again:
"Then, I will arrange your tasks..."
