"Jason Neuer, Captain of Tania's Third City Guard, is here to report!"
On January 1, 795 in the New Calendar, a still windy and snowy day, a few lightly dressed knights drove a carriage to a place called Kalon Pass on the border between the Principality and the City of Freedom: "
We...we have completed the assigned tasks! Please read the instructions, Mr. Speaker!"
"...You don't need to call me Mr. Speaker, we can just be casual."
Looking at the only remaining simple carriage that he got from nowhere, Pamir nodded with a heavy face: "Of course, the first thing I want to say is..."
"Thank you for your hard work, everyone."
In a serious and quiet atmosphere, he put down his hands behind his back, and then slowly performed a standard military etiquette as the surrounding entourage bent down. It seemed that he felt what was involved in this etiquette.
The meaning contained in it made several soldiers surrounding the carriage shed inexplicable tears. Only Jason, who was sitting in the carriage driver's seat, had no change in his original calm expression: "Sir, you don't have to be like this. You will only make people angry."
We are just more ashamed."
He jumped off the carriage and walked to the only cavalry under his command: "We... I and the few soldiers behind me are the only remaining cavalry members, although we knew it before we set off.
This trip is dangerous, but we can no longer bear any more..."
"I know I know."
Lowering his head deeply, Speaker Pamir waved around, and then walked to Jason's side among the gradually dispersing escort team: "What happened this time was beyond our expectations.
In addition, if it were not for various other reasons, our principality would have sent out corresponding troops to greet you."
"Everything is thanks to the special envoy." Jason stood there with a serious face, his tone and attitude were as serious and solemn as ever: "If it weren't for the efforts of the special envoy, these few of us... might have been buried in another country.
I can’t see the sun today either.”
"...I have read the reports you submitted before one by one, and I already have some understanding of the specific situation."
Finally talking about a special topic, Pamir's voice became deeper: "Although it may be different from the actual situation, but..."
"This mission of yours seems to have some twists and turns."
"Yes, Mr. Speaker." Jason's lowered head did not change at all: "A lot of things did happen during this period, and I didn't know the process for a period of time, so..."
"For specific details, you'd better ask the special envoy."
"...If that's the case, then..."
After looking into each other's dull eyes, Pamir took a deep breath, then waved his hand toward the interior of the fortress in the distance, and shouted to the people around him: "Then let the special envoy go in first!"
The simple carriage began to move again with the creaking sound of the wheel axle, slowly marching towards the interior of the fortress, and then disappeared amid the noise and the gathering of surrounding eyes, which was being guarded by soldiers.
In the heavy pass, Pamir, who put his hands on his back again, still stood motionless, seeming to be thinking about something insignificant. It wasn't until a fat man behind him pretended to cough twice that he stopped.
He turned his head in confusion: "In other words... Mo Shang Qingshan left early?"
"I hope he didn't run away." The fat man curled his lips slightly dissatisfied: "Otherwise... I can't spare that guy."
"According to the news that Jason passed before, he suddenly asked to leave a few days after the battle." Pamir said in a calm voice: "Although the specific reason is unclear, since he still arranged for the team to come back
...This shows that he has not given up on us yet."
"I have raised this concern when arranging this task for them before." Fatty replied with disdain: "No matter how capable he is, he is just an adventurer, although I personally do not discriminate against them.
Thoughts, but..."
"Once they choose to abandon us, we have no choice." The corner of his mouth grinned, and a sneer slowly appeared: "Just like the adventure group in the empire."
"...Adventurers are originally a group of neutral people. The grand scene like the previous battle in Tania cannot be regarded as a reason for them to have sworn allegiance to us."
Looking towards the distance of Kalon Pass, Pamir's voice became deeper: "And judging from the current situation, we don't need to consider this aspect yet - that guy and his companions are still
I have no intention of leaving the principality..."
"Or it's a sign." Fatty said something different for the other party: "That battle did bring a lot of vitality to our main city. Even the smallest shops were snapped up. But now, many large-scale stores have been snapped up.
Smaller adventure groups have begun to move towards the area occupied by the Restorationists."
"The leader and members of the Fool's Adventure Group are also rushing here." The fat man sighed at this point: "Plus that Mo Shang Qingshan who ran to who knows where...God knows what they want to do next.
What to do."
"Deliberately arranging an empty train to confuse everyone's attention... Don't worry, this should be part of their plan."
Listening to the sound of the train gradually reaching his ears, Pamir's voice also softened: "I have also met those little guys... I still trust their wisdom and character."
"Since what you said, there's nothing I can do about it." Fatty muttered to himself, "After all..."
"They are the people who saved us before."
The rumbling vibrations of the railway tracks came from far to near, and then resounded in the mountains behind Kalon Pass. Train carriages shining with magical light also gradually appeared in front of everyone as the sound approached. It seemed that they were used to it.
Seeing such a scene, the soldiers stationed near Kalon Pass then skillfully began the task of welcoming the train into the pass. Passengers who got off the train as the train stopped gradually appeared near the pass.
On a simple website: "Hey..."
"Sister, please walk slower."
Among the figures coming in and out, a young man carrying a huge package said breathlessly: "Can you... pay a little attention to my back? There are a lot of things there..."
"Why, you dare to question the authority of our leader?"
As a girl holding a red staff behind her covered her mouth and snickered, a swordsman in black wearing a tattered cloak replied with a cold face: "In our battlefield group, people like you will be kicked out.
Team.”
"Kick me! The labor force has killed as many people as you on the battlefield!" The shirtless young man immediately jumped up, showing signs of exhaustion: "Don't think that you are any big deal just because you have been around that place for a long time!
Labor and management have been in this group longer than you... Oops!"
"The evil young man from Jie City was our companion when we were in Green Stone Village. He came here much earlier than you!"
Withdrawing her hand from slapping the opponent's ugly helmet, the girl named Mengzhu turned around quickly, then wiped her nose while taking light steps: "If you have time to complain, you might as well seize it.
Time to hurry up! Spending so much money to take the train is already the greatest kindness to you!"
"Go quickly, go quickly."
She urged in her mouth, and her figure gradually disappeared to the south of Kalon Pass: "We have to get to the front line before dark..."
"That nasty uncle is still waiting for us somewhere!"
***************************
"...We'll wait for them here?"
"Well……"
"What? Didn't you agree on a good place?"
"She was talking about Fenghua Town, but... look at this appearance."
Time came to the evening of this day, when the sky in the free world darkened again, the figures belonging to Duan Qing and Xueling Huanbing gradually appeared on the top of the Lesser Andachel Mountains, moving towards the distant plains covered with ice and snow.
Looking out: "Even if you don't take this kind of weather into account, there are secret sentries guarding this area everywhere. If we go down the mountain easily...our previous series of efforts will probably be in vain."
"...Then why are you so anxious to go online?"
Exhaling a breath of white air with a slight dissatisfaction, the woman in a black cloak said angrily: "In order to make this journey, we almost ran into the patrol army of the Wings of Freedom..."
"What are you afraid of? They are all your army." Duan Qing waved his hand nonchalantly: "Even if we can't defeat them, we can still convince them with words..."
"My attitude has already been emphasized, and I don't want to repeat it a second time."
Staring at the other party fiercely, Xueling Huanbing said in a cold voice: "I don't want to have anything to do with them now, even if Free Flying comes."
"Okay, okay, you can do whatever you want." Duan Qing, who was lying on the snow, sighed helplessly, then turned his head secretly and muttered to himself: "Oh... after a long time, I will
I don’t know how many bosses I have in front of me now..."
"..."
"No, it's nothing."
Feeling the killing intent that was colder than the snow in winter, Duan Qing shrank his neck, then ignored the piercing eyes of the woman next to him, and looked into the distance at the top of the mountain with a haha: "That...
Let’s think about how to get over. Although there are so many sentries here, it is simply impossible to get down the mountain safely..."
"The defensive front of the Wings of Freedom should be based on the front of the Restorationists." Xueling Huanbing then analyzed in a low voice: "Our advantage comes from their rear, where they think they are safe..."
"As long as we don't cross the line easily, we won't be easily discovered, right?" Duan Qing also laughed: "The question is...how do we know where their front is?"
"According to the battle reports updated all the time on the forum, the two warring parties should be in a stalemate in the Ankaras Plain area." Xueling Huanbing showed a recalling expression: "As far as Kalon Pass in the north, and as far as the Emerald Forest in the south... After hearing the news, we rushed
There are already more players in this area than in the last war between the two countries."
"After all, with more convenient transportation, it is not a troublesome thing to find Xifeng County." Duan Qing replied with a chuckle: "The restorationists chose the mountainous area as their base, and they must have considered it long ago.
This is the factor."
"With the strength they have shown before, it shouldn't be difficult to control a few railways." Xue Ling Huanbing shook her head and replied: "I heard that at the beginning, the survivors of the ancient magic empire almost occupied
The entire Xifeng County..."
"Did they shrink their front?" Duan Qing raised his eyelids in surprise: "Such a strategic approach...did any player suggest it to them?"
"I heard it was Yan Dong's idea."
After a slight pause, Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was squatting beside Duan Qing, looked at the gradually darkening sky in the distance of the mountains: "Originally it was just a proposal to preserve combat strength, but since the incident in the City of Freedom..."
"This strategy has become a reality."
In the gradually sparse snowflakes, the two figures sitting together slowly disappeared on the top of the white mountain, and then in the afterimage of the snow splashed in a certain direction, flying to both sides, towards the distance at the foot of the mountain.
Running away, the beasts hiding around because of the snow were occasionally alarmed by the footsteps of the two people running past, and then fled their lair in panic amidst the screams of their respective swords, not caring about these.
Duan Qing, who made a move, then took the lead and jumped up, suddenly landing in a sparse bush.
"They are all novice village level monsters, so don't worry."
In the scene where the surrounding snow continued to fall, Duan Qing, who slapped his arm, whispered to himself, then looked at a corner in the dim forest, grinning and showing his own smile: "Even the current Emerald Land
Sen, there should be nothing that can threaten your existence..."
"It's always a good idea to be careful."
As if it had already been integrated into the white woods, the figure belonging to the dark language Ninglan then walked out of the shadows in that direction: "Things that can threaten our lives are never monsters in the free world."
"That makes sense." Duan Qing nodded approvingly: "So... you have investigated the situation around this place clearly?"
"Yes, sir."
With his hands folded in front of him, Anyu Ninglan replied in a calm voice: "And..."
"According to Ninglan's idea, we still have many opportunities now."
She tilted her head with a smile, and then gestured towards the distant snowy scene with her hands wearing white gloves. The looming figures were flashing back and forth in the depths of the snow in that area, and then each shouted to kill.
The sound gradually disappeared into the distance at the end of the field of vision.
