Chapter 66 The vicissitudes of the town
Chapter 66: The Vicissitudes of the Town
Perhaps, it was just a slight press of the Thunder Dragon's finger, perhaps it was just a whim of Thunder Dragon's heart when he was sad and angry, but what Tang Huaiser cannon brought to the Weitian Empire was endless panic! The southern border fortress of the Weitian Empire, a huge project that took 100,000 people in the Weitian Empire for five years, an iron barrel barrier that the Weitian Empire has always been proud of, and a military fortress that blocked the cavalry of the Southern Shenwu Empire for hundreds of years, turned into dust and rubble overnight!
The Weitian Empire was panicked inside, and the country was on guard at first level, and the destroyed fortress was even more on guard! Yesterday's scene was the end of the world in the eyes of the fortress soldiers. The fires all over the sky and the miserable wails of the comrades on duty by the city wall were deeply engraved in the hearts of every border soldier, lingering like the shadow of the devil, like a maggot on the tars. The alarm of the enemy attack resounded through the amplification of the magic crystal. All the soldiers in the fortress were ready to go, but what was greeted was-
A deserted wasteland outside the city gate!
Such a powerful bombardment flashed in a flash. Some soldiers who looked up by chance saw only the bright red in the sky before the explosion, but its destructive power was comparable to a forbidden spell!
Forbidden spells, this is a symbol of the top strength in a world where magic is rampant. It can be said that if an empire has a forbidden spell mage, then that country is equivalent to directly adding 100,000 elite soldiers. A forbidden spell mage can make a small country leap into the status of a big country in an instant!
The waves began to surging again on the Aishi Continent. All the news about this disaster in the Weitian Empire was blocked. People could only understand and find something from the ruins!
Everything happened so suddenly, but it disappeared so strangely! But something happened quietly among the major forces in the Aishi Continent.
The Ice and Snow Priests did not sleep all night, and a blank scroll was placed on the table in front of her. After a carpet-style search, they found nothing in the mountains where the Thunder Dragon disappeared. This result made the Ice and Snow Priests' speculation that the Thunder Dragon was about to escape by the attracting of the steel puppet was confirmed. In their hearts, they naturally would not think that the Thunder Dragon was driving the steel puppet away.
The iron puppet who can fly and forbidden curses is enough to bring uneasy risks to this already uneasy continent.
In the Weitian Empire, two teams quickly launched a secret search. One team investigated everyone near the fortress, and the other team secretly went to the mountains and wastelands in the south of the fortress to find the traces of the disappeared steel puppet!
Ning'an Town is a small town on a large wasteland between the Weitian Empire and the Shenwu Empire. In the era of war, the barren land between these battlefields became the habitat of some refugees. Due to the past of caravans, over time, some towns will appear in the middle of various countries. These towns are small, only dozens of families, large ones, and even cities are in the main circulation routes. These places have become resting places between caravans. Under the influence of unspoken rules, even bandits and army will not plunder these towns. These conditions make these towns a "paradise" for refugees, and the most prominent of them is the capital of freedom located at the junction of the four major countries! Here, even the emperors of the four major countries come in person, without any privileges.
It was dark, and as soon as the night came, the wind on the wasteland blew wildly.
The yellow sand is flying all over the sky, the strong wind is howling outside the town, and the wind lights hanging high on the wooden poles at the entrance of the town are constantly swaying in the strong wind, bringing a trace of light in the distance.
The wooden sign hanging on the wooden pole at the entrance of the town was constantly slapped the wooden pole under the strong wind, making a "crack" sound. In the flying yellow sand, a black figure gradually appeared outside the town, and a bleak feeling came out of thin air...
The harsh climate made the people in the town go to bed early. Only in a big mansion at the entrance of the town, there were still noisy voices coming from. This was the only inn in the town. The people in the caravan went to bed early, but how could the mercenaries escorting the caravan fall asleep so early, laughing, talking, shouting, and drinking constantly echoing over the town. Such noisy sounds not only do not seem noisy in the quiet town, but also add a kind of tranquility, loneliness, and distantness!
The dim light shone on the hall with a little warmth. The mercenaries were drinking and chatting in groups. The roaring wind outside formed a sharp contrast with the atmosphere inside the room.
After taking a sip of wine, a big man said to the people around him: "The Kru Fortress of the Weitian Empire has been destroyed. It seems that the Shenwu Empire has the opportunity to take advantage of it now! In my opinion, it will not take long before the two countries will fight. At that time, the soldiers will be in chaos, and it will not be very safe here. Once the war is fought, the business will be reduced by half immediately. I will be sad in the future!"
"I have heard of the destruction of the Kru Fortress. I heard that it was destroyed by a forbidden spell master. But I don't think it's possible for the two countries to fight each other! After all, the Shenwu Empire and the Weitian Empire are friendly countries now." A small mercenary next to him heard the big man's remarks and hurriedly squeezed his head and said.
"Impossible?! Humph!" The man sneered, "When the interests are in front of him, everything is possible! Once the Kru Fortress is destroyed, the southern part of the Weitian Empire will be empty immediately. If the Shenwu Empire does not seize such an opportunity, should we let the Weitian Empire repair the fortress before fighting!"
Seeing that everyone acquiesced to his words, the man took another sip of wine and then said, "Besides, do you know what those nobles are thinking about? A few decades ago, Kante and Buda in the south were also friendly countries! As a result, they were even more enemies than enemies in the fight. Anyway, the people who suffered from the war. If they won, they were popular and spicy. If they were defeated, they would still be prosperous and spicy!"
After hearing the big man's words, there was silence around him, and only the whistling wind outside the house continued. Obviously everyone knew that the big man was saying the truth.
"By the way, Lao Qi, tell us about the forbidden spell master. Do you know who it is? Isn't there no god mage on the continent now? Why did a forbidden spell master suddenly appear?" A young mercenary next to him asked curiously.
"That's it!..." Before the man finished speaking, the door in the inn was suddenly pushed open, and a strong wind blew in from outside the door, blew into the faces of the mercenaries, immediately bringing a breath of restlessness to the calm hall.
A man walked in slowly from outside the door and closed the opened door. Everyone's eyes were immediately attracted by the person in front of him.
A dress of ordinary gray-brown clothes revealed a young and clean face under the covered windshield! It was so-
