Thirteen: The Girl Under the Moon, Incomparably Graceful

Da da……

The rapid sound of horseshoes came from the south, and the gentle wind blew on the face, making people squint their eyes comfortably. The Kalia Fortress was magnifying in Tang En’s eyes. After passing the narrowest land bridge, there was a male in front of him. city.

It was a typical western-style castle, with three walls climbing up the mountain, with huge towers and majestic gates, almost with the words “impregnable as gold” written on its face.

call on

Two war horses walked up to the gate, their hooves raised high, and the Allen Knight, who had changed into casual clothes, asked with a smile, “This is the first time you have come to the city, how do you feel?”

Tang En didn’t speak, looked at the city in front of him, then turned his horse’s head to look at the narrow land bridge behind him, and squeezed out a few words: “Indestructible, the land bridge cannot allow large troops to pass through, and there is no shelter in the open field in front of the city. Covered by all kinds of long-range firepower, surrounded by cliffs, if you attack from the front, you will inevitably be strewn with corpses.”

“It seems that you know how to defend the city.” Allen showed appreciation, and summed up the characteristics of Kalia’s fortress in just one sentence.

“I’ve read some theories in books before, but I don’t think they are true.” Tang En shook his head modestly. In fact, Wei Ming’s experience is not practical at the borderline.

There are no cannons here, but humanoid nuclear weapons.

The two got off their horses and handed over their horses to the guards at the gate of the city. These guards were thin and had long necks. They looked a little deformed. When they spoke, they would unconsciously drooling, which made Tang En take a second look.

“Son of Platinum, Kalia’s ally.” Allen explained casually, then went up and patted an old man on the shoulder, almost hitting him into the ground, “Abus, last night was quite lively.”

“Take it easy, this old man is about to fall apart.” Holding the pyroxene staff, the Platinum Son dodged back and said worriedly, “Du Juan didn’t capture the manor, so he won’t trouble the village. ”

The knight also showed some concern, but he couldn’t do anything about it. After all, Kalia’s forces were compressed in the northwest corner of Lienia, and there was no way for large troops to get out.

———————xxx———————

“Don’t worry, His Highness will find a way. If you really don’t worry, you can take someone back to Baijin Village to have a look.”

He could only comfort him, and dragged Tang En, who was eavesdropping, into the city.

Hasn’t even Platinum Village been destroyed yet? Fortunately, I came early, otherwise the ruins would be too boring.

Tang En glanced at the city tower covered with the huge Kalia Royal Family Banner, but he couldn’t see a few guards. He went through the deep city gate hole again, and a mist of white mist lingered in front of him.

It’s strange, it’s bright daylight behind, but the city is so gloomy, in front of it is a huge garden, surrounded by flowers and trees, and some pyroxene crystals can be seen, and a flat stone road extends forward, with exquisite sculptures on both sides.

The flowers, trees, sculptures, and fountains are really the royal city of Kalia. If the white fog dissipates, it should be quite magnificent.

“Don’t run around, it’s still very dangerous here.” Allen said in front, and Tang En stopped walking as soon as he finished speaking.

The corners of his eyes twitched, and he saw two huge palms crawling down from the wall, those thin fingers were as swift as spider legs, and the grayish white skin was covered with abscesses, which made people go mad at just one look.

Seeing these palm monsters crawling in front of him, stopping one meter away, stretching out human thigh-thin fingers to caress the body surface, like a pet dog sniffing something.

Grass!

Tang En, who was covered with goosebumps, almost drew his sword, but fortunately, these palm monsters fled quickly after touching them a few times, climbed to the wall and curled up into a ball, continuing to wait for their prey.

“These fingerworms are cute.”

When the knight’s laughter came, Tang En rolled his eyes. This intrusive thing is so cute.

Going on silently all the way, the Kalia Fortress is as complicated as I remember, and with the thick fog, it is easy to get lost in it. Once you go the wrong way, those finger worms buried in the soil will jump out hold you high.

“Are you curious that the fortified city is so strong but you still have to bleed and die outside?” Allen certainly wouldn’t get lost, and took Tang En up the traffic wall and headed all the way to the inner city.

“I’m not curious.” Tang En looked outside the wall, thinking that he would deploy a team of crossbowmen here to shoot the enemies in the garden below into hedgehogs.

“Why?”

“Because it’s hopeless to be trapped in an isolated city. This fortress can’t support too many soldiers. Rather than being trapped in the city and starving to death, it’s better to fight bravely.” Tang En licked his lips and said eloquently:

“Most of Kalia’s supplies come from Lake Lienia, and the open space under the city can be transformed into a field. Such a Kalia army supporting thousands of people is completely enough, and a strong city defense is never as reliable as courage. Wait until the day of the cage city For a long time, people cannibalize each other, and loyalty is not worth mentioning in the face of despair.”

The knight turned his head and blinked: “You are more sober than me, I only think that the morale will be affected from the remnant army to the defeated army.”

“I read it all from books.” Tang En nodded with a smile. Isn’t he from a defeated army?

The two of them got on the escalator and lifted up with the sound of gears turning. Only then did they enter the inner city area. Afterwards, Dunn passed the solid city wall, a large hall, an exquisite garden, and hundreds of stone stairs. Those with poor physical fitness will be exhausted halfway.

“This city is too big.” Tang En stood on the stone steps and looked back. He could see most of Lienia. He didn’t know what the cuckoo was thinking. Breaking this city would be a big mistake. possible tasks.

He walked from the afternoon to the rising of the full moon, which was still some distance away from Ninny’s magic tower.

“Keep going, we’re almost there.” Allen also wiped the sweat off his brow, and led Tang En up to the second step. A troll was sitting cross-legged on the ground in front of him.

It wore a weird helmet made up of countless lenses, and was flipping through a huge book in its hand, as if sensing someone approaching, it closed the book firmly.

“Master Yiji, by the order of His Highness, bring Tang En Wright to have an audience.”

“Well, I’ve heard.” Iggy’s voice was not as tyrannical as ordinary trolls, but revealed a unique wisdom. He bent down, put his head in front of Tang En, and nodded after looking at it for a long time:

“That’s right, it’s true that you don’t panic when you change, and your spirit sinks like the sea, you are indeed a talent.”

“Lord Iggy is too proud.” Tang En replied neither humble nor overbearing. He knew that this person was Kalia’s military advisor, even if the stick behind his back could smash the cuckoo knight into a meat paste.

Yiji nodded again, but did not give up the doorway behind him. Allen was a little puzzled, so he heard the mountain demon ask:

“I want to ask you something. The Cuckoo Knights obviously still have the strength to launch an attack, so why did they withdraw to the camp and stick to it?”

Is this an exam?

Tang En raised his eyebrows. He hates riddlers, and as a grasshopper on a rope, he doesn’t have to hold back too much, so he thought for a while before answering:

“Lienia has the Academy of Magic, the Cuckoo Legion, and the Kalia royal family. This balance…”

“Wait, the Cuckoo Legion is the group of rebellious loyal dogs of the Magic Academy.”

Tang En showed sarcasm on his face. Of course, he couldn’t say that he knew the inside story. He just put it another way: “If it is a loyal dog, the Magic Academy will not stand idly by since the war started. If a magician participated last night, we will not be able to defend it no matter what. Live, it proves that both of them are wary of each other.”

Of course Iggy knew the reason, so she nodded: “Okay, you continue.”

“The three forces have formed a balance. After learning that there is no hope of capturing the city, Du Juan will continue to attack unless he has a problem with his brain. Instead, they now need a superficially strong Kalia, so that the Magic Academy will not dare to close the gate, because Du Juan There is no way to get in, but we have plenty of ways.”

Tang En talked eloquently, holding Kou to be self-respecting. Of course, this ‘Kou’ cannot be too weak.

The battle of a small estate changed like a butterfly flapping its wingsMany things, such as the premise of the closure of the Academy of Magic, that both Kalia and Dujuan would be hurt, can be detached and let the two sides play out of their minds.

“So there is a Kalia who has the ability to fight back, but the Magic Academy dare not abandon Dujuan. Now that the border is raging, the Dujuan Army can find a job anywhere, and those magicians have nowhere to go. If Kali Ya regained the lost ground, why should they block our recast soldiers!”

“Well said!” Iggy clapped her hands and smashed the two huge boulders with an astonishing momentum. It’s hard to say whether this situation is good or bad, but this judgment—

“Brave and resourceful, you are much better than that idiot Biarian.”

“Hey, why do you involve me?” The knight raised his hand in protest, he didn’t understand half of it.

Iggy ignored him and continued: “Strength can be improved through exercise. Kalia has no shortage of powerful fighters, but judgment and wisdom need to be gained from experience. I have read your information, and I can only say ‘genius’. Something is always there.”

Tang En didn’t say a word. He really showed his sharpness, but a man acted frankly. Why pretend to be weak, and really treat others as fools?

“Go in, Your Highness Ninny is waiting for you.” Iggy slowly got up and let out the doorway behind him, but Tang En was stunned for a moment, thinking that it was still some distance away from the magic tower.

He straightened his messy armor, stepped in first, passed through the doorway, and suddenly saw a shallow pool in front of him, surrounded by a circle of high-backed chairs, and the radiance of the full moon cast in the pool water, reflecting another round the moon.

The surface of the pool is like a mirror, the bright moon is quiet, and the radiance that shines fills a girl’s body. She sits on a high-backed chair facing the doorway, lowers her head slightly and cannot see her face clearly, and looks very peaceful and mysterious.

This scene was reflected in Tang En’s eyes, which made his whole heart quiet, and this beautiful picture was deeply engraved in his mind.

The girl under the moon is unparalleled.
