Chapter 825 Enemies on a narrow road

More than a hundred miles away, under Gervais’ forced march, second day Dusk has arrived.

On the way he did not encounter any trace of the natives.

“The City of Holy Grace! It really is a good name!”

Seeing the city wall with a height of at least fifty meters and a width of nearly two miles, Gervais couldn’t help cracking his mouth. Showing the white teeth inside, he laughed happily.

When he set off, he only wanted to capture one or two small towns, and then he got up and developed slowly. How could things change so fast, the natives abandoned the city and could pick it up at will.

In addition to its large scale, the city of Holy Grace is also more than 50 meters wide with its supporting moat, which is much larger than the previous ones occupied by Gervais.

Apart from this, there is a big river that traverses at several hundred meters in the north and east. It is a city that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

And there was still a charred wooden bridge wreck on the river at this time. Needless to say, it must be a masterpiece after the indigenous people set fire to it.

“Come on, let’s go into the city and see!”

Gervais couldn’t wait to see what he had just ‘picked up’ in the city, so he waved his hand and took his men with him. moved towards the city gate.

When you come to the city, the city of Saint Grace is worthy of being a medium-sized city. The wide streets and exquisite buildings one after another are much better than the city of Saint Ann.

I rode the giant crocodile brother all the way to the temple. This temple is at least 70 to 80 meters high. Compared with the city of San An, it is not a little bit.

“father, you are now arranging someone to take over the whole city, we will rest here tonight!”

Gervais came to the temple, the only regret was to find all the Valuable objects and decorations have been taken away by the natives, even the stage decorations are the same.

So he casually sat on a back chair and gave a command to Gandalf.

“Okay, Gervais!”

Gandalf heard Gervais’ words, but was not disappointed because the temple was empty, and immediately moved towards the temple, shaking his beard. go.

Now, every city he occupies means that his younger son’s sphere of influence has expanded by one point.

And Gervais is strong, so the Gale family is also as the tide rises, the boat floats. In the eyes of old nobles like Gandalf, as long as there is land, it represents everything.

“I don’t know where Edward, Johnson and the others have advanced! It should be almost the same!”

After Gandalf left, Gervais couldn’t help but start to think.

In the past few days, he has penetrated four or five hundred miles, and it can be said that he has truly reached the hinterland of the indigenous people.

And Gervais speculates that there is not much room for the natives to retreat, and a real native city is likely to appear next, especially on the other side of the river.

At this time, he has also sent scouts to investigate. If it is as he expected, then this City of Holy Grace can become his base camp in the next battle.

As time passed, the sky gradually dimmed.

Gervais was sitting at the long table eating his meal when the guards who were standing outside walked in.

“Your Majesty, the scouts sent to investigate the situation ahead are back!”

“Well, let him in!”

Gervais put down his knife and fork , gave an order.

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

Soon, Captain Small, a scout sent to detect the enemy’s situation, came to the temple.

“How’s it going?”

Gervais asked in a deep voice.

“King Your Majesty, after crossing the river outside the city, there is a medium-sized city more than 20 miles away, which can accommodate at least about 200,000 residents. Less natives are active!”

Sure enough, the situation of this scout’s exploration verified Gervais’ idea. Although the natives have shrunk their defenses, they will definitely control strategic locations at several key points.

“We wanted to continue to observe the details of the enemy, but the natives in the city also discovered us, and immediately flew dozens of flying devil beasts from the city. For safety, we I immediately returned to Holy Grace City.”

After silently listening to the scout’s report, Gervais opened the mouth and said.

“You go down first!”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

As the guards back down, Gervais eats and thinks. .

The city of 200,000 people is already considered an upper-middle city in this land of gods.

That means that the other side of the river is the place where the natives are fighting, and if they encounter it, it must be a war.

“Since that’s the case, then I’ll be here waiting for Edward and the others!”

The next journey, with Gervais alone, may not be possible.

In the face of three or five thousand native soldiers, Gervais can still make a big fight. If the enemy has tens of thousands of troops, and it is still a siege, it will never be able to fight, and the casualties will be heavy.

Unless, Gervais is really willing to pay!

…

After waiting to meet Edward and the others in the city of Holy Grace, Gervais continued to enjoy dinner.

When Gervais finished dinner and was just about to get up to wash up in the back garden, Gandalf hurried in again.

“father, what’s the matter?”

Gervais rarely saw his cheap dad look so anxious, and hurriedly asked.

“Gervais, the scout who was in charge of guarding the west just came back and reported that a team was found ten miles west, with at least tens of thousands of people, and that team seems to be heading towards us! .

“A team of tens of thousands of people? Did the scout see the identity of the other party, was it an aboriginal? “

Gervais’ face turned serious immediately.

Now he’s on his own, and if it’s an aboriginal plan, it’s likely to let him fall in the sewer.

“The scout Captain said that the sky was a little dark, so he couldn’t tell the exact identity of the opposing team. He could only see that they were walking fast with torches, and it was estimated that they would arrive at Holy Grace City in 20 minutes! “

Gandalf continued to explain.

“Go, father, let’s go to the city wall!” ”

Gervais listened, it was naturally impossible to wash up, the army of unknown origin, they are now alone, no matter what they say, they must be strictly guarded.

Speaking, Gervais then Teng stood up from the soft chair and walked outside the temple with Gandalf.

While walking, Gervais instructed Ike behind him again.

“ Ike, let Long Yi and the others get ready, all come to the city wall and stand by! “

“Yes, Your Majesty!” ”

……

On the city wall of the City of Holy Grace, the sky was completely dark at this time, and the sky was full of stars. You can see the scenery two or three hundred meters away, but if you are farther away, it is gray.

At this time, the breeze blows, the cloak behind Gervais flutters slightly, and he stands motionless on the wall. Focused towards the West.

“Come on! “

Gervais suddenly said something to Gandalf next to him!

On the road between the trees two miles away, a flickering light suddenly appeared at the end of the darkness. The flames flickered.

As the first flames appeared, a little by little torch team emerged from behind like a long dragon-like.

“Ike, tell me to go down. ,ignition! “

Seeing the team on the road over there appear, Gervais immediately gave Ike a command.

“Yes, Your Majesty!” “

Ike complied immediately, and then ran across the city wall with orders.

“Your Majesty has orders, light a bonfire!” ”

Bang!Bang!Bang!

As Ike conveyed the order, one after another bonfire was instantly lit on the originally dark city wall.

And at the moment when the bonfire was lit on the city of Holy Grace, the marching team in the distance seemed to have discovered the situation here, and the marching team stopped immediately.

“Not aboriginal? Or just an unexpected team! ”

Gervais has been paying attention to the movement of the distant team during this period, and he has already made a judgment in his heart when he sees them pause.

If the other party deliberately planned to ambush him , then they must already know that they are in the city of Holy Grace, so there will be no surprises about the bonfire just lit.

And now the marching team has stopped, indicating that the other party is not interested in Gervais and the The appearance of others was also unexpected, and I was taken aback!

In this way, no matter whether the other party is aboriginal or not, Gervais can feel a lot more at ease, at least not in an ambush, and the difficulty factor is suddenly reduced

……

And Gervais’ guess is very accurate, the team two miles away did not expect someone to appear in the city of Holy Grace.

They are The team belonged to the Golden Shield family, and was sent by Batman to occupy the Holy Grace City.

The indigenous people shrunk their defenses in an all-round way, and it was not only Gervais who picked up the cheap ones, but other Holy City also picked up the cheap ones. .

And yesterday evening, the dragon bird squad of the Golden Shield family probed into the city of Holy Grace, when Gervais was still on the way.

For such a medium city, and Being on the edge of a big river with convenient transportation, the Golden Shield family will naturally not let it go.

So after capturing a small town fifty miles ahead this morning, they immediately dispatched a team of 10,000 people to prepare for the attack. If this city is taken over, who knows that this city of Holy Grace has an owner now.

“What’s the matter, didn’t the scout’s report in the morning say that there is no one in this City of Holy Grace? ”

The Golden Shield family has a total of three Red Banner Knight Great Commanders. Last time, because they were sent to hunt down Gervais, one of them was killed, that is, Keto who died outside the city of Saint Ann.

This time, Ralph, one of the three red flag Knights of the Golden Shield family, is in charge of leading the team.

Ralph stopped his mount at this time, moved towards Holy Grace City, and looked at the city with a bad expression.

p>

“Lakar Great Commander, the scout Squad checked it out again this morning, and there is really no trace of the natives. Could it be that these natives crossed the river and returned in the afternoon? “

Deputy Commander beside Rakar also frowned.

“It’s all to blame for that scumbag kid in Storm Wind City, if it weren’t for him, the dragon bird Knight of our Golden Shield family.” It won’t be all that’s left, but now let’s go on an errand for nothing! ”

These 10,000 Legions have a Great Commander and two Deputy Commanders, and the other Deputy Commander also echoed, and scolded Gervais by the way.

Because of the golden shield The number of Dragon Bird Knights in the family has been reduced by half, so many times now, the number of Dragon Bird Knights they can allocate is very limited.

For example, this time they came here, they didn’t even have a Dragon Bird allocated, because The Duke is preparing to forcibly cross the river, so after confirming that there are no natives here, he feels that there is no need to send the dragon bird Knight to serve as a scout.

But didn’t expect it to be only one afternoon, this city of Saint Grace is unexpectedly Another person appeared.

After scolding, the Deputy Commander looked towards Rakar and continued to open the mouth and said.

“Rakar Great Commander, now we are returning, Or…”

“Tell the team to move on, but I want to see how people come to this city of Holy Grace for no reason! “

Rakar made a decision after thinking for a moment.

Since he came to this Holy Grace City, he naturally wanted to see what was going on.

most important is that Batman explained before he set off that he would occupy the city of Holy Grace, and then cross the other side of the river tomorrow, and then turn back from the other side to help the main team force the crossing.

If I see it now Returning after a few torches would be a shame for him as a Great Commander.

As for the safety issue, Rakar is not worried, as long as he does not encounter the main force of the natives, he is confident to retreat safely with his men.

“Yes! Great Commander! “

Then, the Golden Shield family’s team continued to move towards Holy Grace City.

……

“Who are you?” “

Seven or eight minutes later, Raquel and the others had arrived a mile outside the city.

Raquel immediately sent a Deputy Commander to the edge of the moat to investigate the situation.

It’s already night, so neither side can identify each other’s identity through naked eyes.

The Deputy Commander of the Golden Shield family is also straightforward, knowing that the traces of himself and the others have already been traced. Exposed, there is nothing to hide at this time, so I opened my mouth and moved towards the city wall and shouted.

“Who are you again! “

Gervais looked at the people on the edge of the moat through the faint moonlight, and also asked rhetorically.

In fact, he already had a guess in his mind, since the people below are probably not natives, That must be the Golden Shield family or his allies.

After all, the immediate west of Gervais has always been the Golden Shield family and his allies.

“We belong to the Golden Shield family! ”

Deputy Commander was taken aback when he heard the rhetorical question on the city wall, and he also vaguely guessed that Gervais and the others were probably not natives.

Because if the natives saw them coming , the first sentence must be you shameless intruders, rather than asking who you are.

“en? The Golden Shield family? Really enemies on a narrow road! “

Gervais didn’t expect it to be such a coincidence.

“I am from Storm Wind City, and I have occupied this city of Holy Grace!” Your Golden Shield family can go back! “

At the moment, Gervais didn’t hide it, he opened the mouth and said coldly.

“What? Storm Wind City? Are you the bastards who kill God? “

Deputy Commander below was startled, and then blurted out.

“Fuck, courting death!” “

“The Spear of Hell!” ”

Gervais heard this man scolding him in front of him, how could he bear it, he immediately backhanded and released an intermediate level magic he just learned.

Tweet !

This Prison Spear belongs to intermediate level magic. It is a lance composed of Fire Elements. When the spell is finished, it moves towards the man with a whistling sound.

p>

“shameless! ”

The Deputy Commander’s words just subconsciously spoke just now. Who would have thought that the opponent would start attacking so decisively, and the first shot was intermediate level magic.

Although this spear of hell The bright red arc is particularly eye-catching in the dark night, but the speed is surprisingly fast, even if he immediately finds out, there is not much time for him to deal with it.

Seeing that the spear of hell is about to shoot in front of him, This Deputy Commander could only scolded secretly, and then directly rolled over from the demon wolf mount under him, and without hesitation came a donkey roll on the ground.

bang!

“roar!”

Next moment, the spear of hell shot directly on the demon wolf he was riding.

Only heard the sound of explosion accompanied by the demon Wolf’s tragic howl, the spear of hell penetrated the demon wolf’s body directly, and after a while, the demon wolf was silent.

“You shameless chops, wait for me! “

This Deputy Commander didn’t dare to stay any longer, immediately got up and moved towards the distance and ran away, and at the same time left a cruel word on the city wall!
