The light breeze of the morning was rather cold, and the morning light was red like blood.
Blackstone Fortress is busy again.
After yesterday's battle, nearly four thousand elite Blackstone warriors were killed here. In addition to the blood and corpses on the ground, there were also many abandoned armor and weapons. The former mine slaves who witnessed what happened yesterday did not hesitate to pull the armor and weapons from the corpses of their enemies to equip themselves. Then, they took all the valuable ones and filled a dozen horse carriages.
Although most of the freed slaves were not in good condition due to the long agony, their spirits were raised since the Saint King of Chambord descended from the sky and saved them. With renewed hope, they gathered in formation under the leadership of Lampard. The people of the Azeroth Continent valued and emphasized strength and strength, so most men knew how to ride horses and use weapons. Currently, the men were riding war horses stolen from the stables, and the women and children were riding chariots for protection purposes. With weapons pulled out and a ton of murderous spirits, this army seemed a little domineering.
The two groups took separate paths. The three warriors led by Lampard saluted Fei then departed.
For a moment, farewells and prayers echoed in the cold field in the citadel during Autumn.
At this moment, the skinny little boy Modric helped elder Zolasc walk up to Fei.
After saluting Fei as one of his subjects, the elder knelt to the ground, "Your Majesty, please allow me to join your expeditionary force. This Sun Burning Mountain Range was remote, desolate, covered in mist, and dangerous. There are forest areas and steep mountains. If the expedition did not have a guide, it was very easy to get lost there. I was brought here and became a slave when I was twenty-six years old. I have lived here for twenty-one years now, and I know every little road, mine pit, and road and beast in these mountains. I promise that with my help, the Chambord army can think of the Burning Sun Mountains in the least amount of time. ”
"But your body ...." As a high-level idiot when it came to directions, Fei knew the stray struggle. That was why after he heard that his eyes were shining. What the old Zolasc said was reasonable; Fei did need a guide when leading an army through this mountain range that he did not know about. But the elder in front of him was still recovering from his injuries and torment. Although the potion from Diablo World helped him to recover, his body was still in a state of exhaustion. Long-term military travel will only make it worse.
"Don't worry about me, Your Majesty. My old bones are still hard .... ”This elder is very tough. With her white hair fluttering in the wind, she left Modric's help and raised a black stone about a hundred pounds beside him with an arm. He said with a boasting tone, "Your Majesty, look. This old man could still lift a huge rock. Please let this old Zolasc contribute to the rebellion of Chambord when I can still walk...... ”Zolasc became emotional and shouted,“ For more than twenty years, , I've been waiting for this day too long! ”
Fei was touched by the spirit and courage of the elder.
"OK, if this is the case .. Oleg, bring the Roaring Flame Beast here and give it to our experienced guide …"
When he said that, Fei looked at Modric who was looking at him and smiled, Little “Si, come and ride with Uncle Zolasc. You have to take care of him on the road! "
"Ah time? Thank you, Your Majesty…. Hail Your Majesty! ”
Little Modric almost jumped into the air due to the excitement. He wanted to ask the king to let him join the army, but he did not expect the king to say it first. The scene of Fei smiling and reaching out to him under the sun that Modric saw when he had just woken up from fainting was etched into the soul of this thin blonde boy. Being able to follow the king around was the best news he had heard in a long time.
Warden Oleg quickly came up with the powerful Roaring Flame Beast.
After several generations of cultivation, this level 4 Demon Beast became obedient and docile. However, the calmer nature did cause the strength of a level 4 Demon Beast to drop as well. That was why they were destroyed by strong men in heavy knight armor. But after being fed some 【Hulk Herb】 mixed into their diet, they had signs of atavism, such as how the fat Oleg showed signs of a second youth. The carrying and filling abilities of these ferocious beasts had increased dramatically, and the fiery red flame energy surged around their hooves, just like the wild Roaring Fire Beast. The fangs in their mouths grow and become sharp, and their wild nature returns. Although they became fierce and aggressive again, they were obedient to their master.
Little Modric became excited and ran to the beast to gain control.
However, this Roaring Flame Beast suddenly became aggressive when it saw a stranger approaching it. It raised its red front nails and almost stomped forcefully. The big black dog suddenly opened his eyes and barked furiously. A funny scene occurred, as if it was a big boss giving a lesson to his henchmen, this Roaring Flame Beast took back its nails in embarrassment. The only thing is it won't let Modric and Zolasc get close to it.
Fei was a little embarrassed as well.
He did not expect this ferocious beast to not give him a "face". When he wanted to return to Druid Mode and talk to this "little man", a beautiful figure walked by. The slender fingers, like fingers lightly patted the head of this Roaring Flame Beast and he smiled as he gestured towards the old Modric and Zolasc. Something surprising happened. The ferocious Roaring Flame Beast walked up to the two people and kneeled obediently.
"Angela, how did you do it?"
As the troops began to move outside the Blackstone Fortress, Fei asked with a smile on his face. He rode Blacky's back with his fiancee in his arms. With a light body scent on his nose, the cold autumn wind no longer felt bad.
"I don't really know. "Angela frowned when she heard Fei's question:" I felt they could understand me; they were kind, funny, like a little baby ..
That's the same answer.
Fei smiled. He hypothesizes that Angela has an unknown power that will make all animals feel intimate towards her for mysterious reasons. When the soldiers tried to train the Roaring Flame Beast and the warhorse before, his abilities were used to a great degree. No matter how ferocious or aggressive the animal was, it would become calm and cute in front of this girl and her pure smile.
However, it is clear that Angela herself has yet to discover where those abilities came from.
As the two of them spoke, the team had already marched out of the Blackstone Fortress from the back gate.
"I cannot leave this fortress to the Blackstone Kingdom and its king who is like a demon king!"
After everyone came out, Fei used his Barbary power and caused some of the defensive walls and buildings in the fortress to collapse to the ground. The fortress that was carefully built and maintained by several generations of kings turned into an empty land. If the Blackstone Kingdom wanted to restore its glory, they would need to spend at least three years to repair this fortress.
……
For the next day, the expedition march was very smooth.
The deeper the troops went into the Burning Sun Mountains, the more dangerous it became. Strange terrain and cliffs were everywhere. Hundreds of years old trees block the sun, making it difficult for the sun to shine on the ground. As the day passed, the visibility had already begun to dim. When night fell, a huge white fog appeared, and its visibility was extremely poor. Rocks and trees were everywhere on the side of the road, and a thick layer of dried leaves and moss with a slight foul smell filled the road. Without any obvious landmarks and reference points, it's really easy to get lost.
At this point, Fei was glad he had Zolasc, a GPS that didn't need a battery to function.
As the elder said, he actually knew every road in the mountains by heart. No matter if it was a clear path or a path that had been long abandoned, he knew where they were. Every time when it seemed like there was nowhere to go, he could show a way and save a lot of troops time and trouble.
The army found several mine holes owned by Blackstone on the way, and Fei would send the fatty Warden Oleg to smash the hole, kill the guards, and release the mine slaves.
Since my slaves from Chambord were gathered together by the Blackstone King, Fei did not need to send his people to take care of them and keep them back to Chambord. There were some people like old Zolasc who knew the way around the mountain. All the mine slaves could not wait to go home, so they knelt down to thank Fei and cheered as they disappeared into the fog with the comrades from the same kingdom.
After three hours of walking, the Burning Sun Mountains were already so dark that it was difficult to travel. Although the sun had yet to set, the large trees blocked the light.
“Your Majesty, I remember there is a lake that is not too far away. There is also a large area covered by small stones that are good for setting up camp. How about we just rest here tonight? ”Zolasc old riding Roaring Flame Beast and suggested.
"okay!" Fei nodded as he looked at Angela who was already asleep in his arms.
After about half an hour, a small, clear lake appeared. There was grass on the ground, but it was yellow and half-dry, like a beautiful carpet placed on the ground. Not too far away, there was a small forest made of huge stones. The terrain is not bad as the stones are flat and dry. It was a great place to set up camp.
In autumn, the view of the mountains and the lake is breathtaking.
However, Fei frowned.
There were already flames and lights around the lake, and there were many sounds made by humans. There were already people there, and there were many of them.
