Lord of War

v4 Chapter 84 - . Alone action

  After Shaun and Ulamog separated, he set foot on the road to Tonys Fortress alone.

  The straight-line distance between Fort St. Drones and Fort Tonys is not too far. After all, they are two fortresses called “Lane’s Portal” that are horns to each other. But in fact, if the passage between the two fortresses does not take the military route, it will need to bypass several aristocratic territories, which will take about three months longer on the itinerary. Of course, this refers to the regular travel time. If a strong man like Xiao En rushes, it will naturally not take so long.

  While taking the military road, the distance between the two fortresses only needs to pass through an empty mountain tunnel, which can be reached within a month. This was originally for the purpose of facilitating the formation of rapid support to each other when the two fortresses were attacked. Therefore, this military road has always been subject to very strict military monitoring and will not be easily used by outsiders. In particular, the owners of these two fortresses belonged to more disciplined people, so it was even less likely that the guards would accept bribes and then let them go.

  Sean, of course, will not throw himself into the trap to walk this military channel.

  He knew very well that now the spies of the entire Kingdom of Lane were looking for him, and it was precisely because of his disappearance that many decisions of the Kingdom of Lane could not be made. If he suddenly appeared in the kingdom of Lane now, it would be a disadvantage for him. And he also knew that now Elizabeth and the Marquis of Floris could not stay in Tonys Fortress, but they should not be too far away from Tonys Fortress, but even so, I am afraid it is not one to find these two people. Simple things.

  Shaun reached out and patted in the air.

This action looks quite neurotic, but only Sean knows that he was patted on the body of Void Fang-this wolf-like guy is quite affectionate to Sean, compared to the one Ulamog summoned before. Chaos Snake and Lion is much better: the combination of lion and python is full of inexplicable hostility towards Sean. If it weren’t for the forced suppression by Ulamog, I am afraid that Sean would have been torn into Chaos Snake and Lion long ago. Fragmented.

  It was also at that time that Sean knew the true ability of Ulamog.

  Ulamo is just like the outfit that Sean has seen, he is a real magician type powerhouse. However, to say that he is a pure magician is also a bit biased. He is just not good at melee combat. Of course, this is compared with the super powers such as Kozilek and Alexis who specialize in melee combat. If it was just a legendary powerhouse of ordinary thirteenth and fourteenth ranks, Ulamog could still be suppressed.

  Of course, this refers to a one-to-one situation.

  If Ulamog is given ample preparation time, he alone can be equivalent to an extremely powerful and terrifying army. In the words of Alexis, once Ulama is fully prepared, even she will find it very tricky, so she will not confront Ulama who is ready, and once they really have to start a confrontation If so, she would never give Ulama any preparation time.

  Not to mention summoning the entire Chaos Legion, even the Seven Thrones would not let him summon it.

  The so-called Seven Kings of Thrones are the seven extremely powerful chaotic monsters captured by Ulamog’s will: such as chaotic snakes and lions, and fangs of nothingness. The weakest of these seven powerful monsters have the power of a legendary power-under normal circumstances, a magician who specializes in summoning magic can only have one or two legendary powers when he becomes a super power. Contract monsters, even after becoming a super powerhouse, the number of contracts will not exceed three, and even the geniuses among them will mostly only have five.

   In addition to the powerful monsters that are difficult to find, the separation of willpower and spirit is also a limiting reason.

  Ulamor is able to become a super strong on par with Kozilek, not without reason-his endless will is the most fundamental core, and it is also the source of his power to become a super strong. This is also the real reason why Ulamog can exceed the specifications with seven powerful monsters, while at the same time be able to summon an entire chaos army-and don’t forget, Ulamog is not the kind of weak magician itself.

  However, there are still weaknesses, at least he can’t fight head-on like Kozilek and Ulamog.

  The individual combat effectiveness of the Void Fang is not strong. Its real strength lies in hiding its traces, especially once it escapes into the area of ​​the non-material world, no one can perceive its aura. It is very suitable for surprise attacks and ambushes. Considering that Sean’s frontal combat ability is not weak, the only thing lacking is this hidden action ability, so Ulamog will leave the Void Fang to Sean.

  It’s just that even Sean, who has two hearts now, can’t stay in the Shadow Plane and Chaos Plane for a long time. One of these two planes has the property of corroding the mind and the other has the property of distorting the body. Once staying in it for a long time, it will be affected by the special abilities of the plane and be completely assimilated into alien creatures, especially Shaun. As the son of the plane of the miracle continent, the erosion of this kind of external force is even more obvious.

  In a day, he can probably only hide in one plane for two hours.

  So if the two planes alternate, they can only hide for four hours at most.

  Considering that the reason for hiding will only happen when his whereabouts are exposed, four hours is enough for Sean to move his position.

  In the next few days, Sean was basically on his way, except for necessary rest, he didn’t even enter any town.

  However, Sean did not find any signs of war in the small towns that he occasionally passed through. It seems that the entire Kingdom of Lane is still immersed in the atmosphere of a peaceful and prosperous age, and he does not know that the armies of the Kingdom of Lane and the Void Principality are in a state of confrontation. As for the civil strife that occurred in the Royal Family of Ryan, it was obvious that these people didn’t seem to be clear about it, which made Shaun a little unclear about the current situation of the Kingdom of Ryan.

  Sean knew that the basic information circulation in this world relied on the transmission of information from bards and merchants. Unless it was a nobleman, there would be special spy personnel. If it is in a relatively remote area and the merchants have not visited several times a year, then the news is blocked, but these cities close to the two major fortresses of the Kingdom of Line are all transit points of the supply route, and it is impossible for this to happen. condition.

  Unless these merchants are obviously unwilling to disclose anything, so Sean’s first reaction is that the upper layers of the Kingdom of Lane are deliberately controlling the transmission of these messages.

  But this kind of thing is not without benefits to these business people. After all, in non-war time, supplies generally maintain a relatively average expenditure level. These merchants who have received the news can take this opportunity to buy these wartime emergency supplies: such as food, wine, dried meat, etc. After a relatively difficult period of material poverty during wartime, these materials can be resold at high prices.

   “It seems that Ryan has really begun to fall.” Sitting in the tavern, Sean showed a disdainful sneer.

  A few years ago, when Ryan had not been upgraded and returned to his current state of the kingdom, the entire Principality was in a prosperous state. Even if a war broke out, the mood of the domestic people was very stable, and it could even be said to be agitated. At that time, there was no wartime chaos or escalation of materials. Although public opinion was also controlled to a certain extent, at least the whole The principality still exudes a kind of vitality.

   But now, what Shaun saw and heard along the way was completely filled with a decadent, decadent, and depraved aura.

  This kind of breath is very similar to the scene that Sean saw when he went to the underground world in his previous life.

  It is a false prosperity, and hidden despair and fear.

“Boy, what are you talking about?” A big guy who was a little drunk was unexpectedly sharp, “Ryan is much stronger now than before! What is depravity? Huh, a body as thin as you is. Can you afford a sword? People who don’t know anything dare to say these things here.”

  Sean smiled and did not speak.

  But this drunkard still seems to be a little reluctant.

   But soon, he was pulled away by his companion. The companion nodded to Sean politely, and said something, which seemed to be explaining something, but because the tavern was too noisy, he didn’t hear it clearly.

Shaun glanced at the atmosphere in the tavern. The residents here still maintain a high enthusiasm for life, especially many people are extremely excited about selling the food they have hoarded for a period of time for a good price. , And even encouraged other residents to hurriedly sell food and bacon before the caravan had left.

  Of course, it’s not someone who doesn’t doubt this, after all, it’s obviously something wrong to buy such a large amount of food suddenly. However, there are still some people who are skeptical about this. It is just that these people who have already sold things have begun to make up in order to show their intelligence circulation. Some people say that there are nobles who want to hold large banquets, or what they say. There is a carnival in the royal capital.

  The words made up by these ignorant people because of their ignorance almost perfectly compensated for the confusion that the entire Kingdom of Lane had faintly begun to produce.

Sean sighed, then raised his head and drank the ale in the glass, then walked to the bar, threw the glass heavily on the bar, and shouted to the boss who was standing behind wiping the glass: “Boss, Another glass of ale mixed with water!”

   “Nonsense!” the boss roared furiously, “My old Mike’s ale is never mixed with water!”

   “Haha.” Xiao En laughed, “Then come to the bar with a glass of wine in the water.”

The boss raised his brows, but his expression changed very quickly, and his face soon showed a smile: “Haha, kid, you said that well. Dwarves like to listen to this kind of thing, but I am not here. Dwarf Tavern.”

   murmured, and poured Sean a glass of new ale.

  And Sean also smiled and put down a few copper coins, raised his head and drank the ale in one breath, and then left the tavern.

  After stepping out of the tavern, Sean spit out what was in his mouth. It was a gray coin, which looked a bit like a silver coin.

  Black market admission ticket.

  In Shawn’s territory, the black market of Gray Shadows still exists today, and it is more prosperous than before. After all, Shawn is now backing him. And maybe, in the future, it will become an imperial emperor backing up. Who would dare to make trouble in the black market of Gray Shadow? And this time, Sean had made a lot of preparations for traveling alone, so he knew the location of several black markets in the Kingdom of Lane.

  This Belo Village is one of the entrances to the black market, but it is different from the general black market area. The black market here requires an admission ticket—that is, the coin in Sean’s hand. The way to get coins is to match the secret code with the old Mike in the tavern, which shows that someone else recommended Sean to come here. He belongs to a safe guest who has already verified his identity and can pass with confidence.

  Of course, if there is no one to monitor this, then Sean feels that the black market has long been wiped out.

  From the moment he stepped out of the tavern and spit out coins, Sean felt that at least five people were watching him.

  But he didn’t care much.

This Bello Village is one of the closest supply points to Tonys Fortress. Basically, whether you want to leave Tonys Fortress or enter Tonys Fortress, you will choose these transit stations for rest and refurbishment. The black market is just here. When the Marquis of Floris was in charge of the entire underground world of the Kingdom of Lane, this black market was one of his most important sources of income and one of his most important core bases.

  At this moment, Sean cannot guarantee whether this place is occupied by Black Hawk, but it is much better to get some information here than to search without a clue.

  Similarly, this also means that Sean is likely to expose his whereabouts. However, he has delayed enough time. Now Knok’s 2nd Infantry Corps has camped outside the Tonis Fortress, and Elsie’s Darkmoon Gun is also rushing here to assist, and then Hela temporarily mobilized arrangements. Two army of orcs and elves. As for Aldolf’s mobile infantry regiment, they rushed directly to the Principality of Garrod, and the follow-up units were the First Cavalry Regiment and the Scarlet Knights.

  It can be said that, unlike the peaceful situation inside the Senegal, the situation outside the Senegal has reached a state of complete war that is on the verge of breaking out.

  The only thing missing now is a fuse.

  The three of the Marquis of Floris, Elizabeth, and Frches are the fuse of the war between the Void Duchy and the Kingdom of Lane-the difference is that who finds each other first. (To be continued~^~)
