"It's me, keep your voice down, don't alert the guards outside!"
Fang Piao reminded him in a low voice.
He glanced in the corner of the wall in the direction of the guards, and after seeing the two guards returning, they stood there motionless.
He withdrew his gaze, adjusted the camera with his hand, and switched his field of view back to the cellar. Fang Pulmon saw that everyone in Lufu's Shield was waiting for his next words, and then he said: "Don't worry, I will find a way to rescue you, but in
Before that, I have to find out how many people were arrested in total?"
The leading swordsman named ZXC was smiling bitterly at this moment. This scene seemed familiar, but he would rather not have this kind of 'fate': "That's troublesome boss, our people have basically been arrested, Xiaopang and us
They were detained in different places. On the way here, I also saw your iron guards, and Mr. Luo Yu and Miss Jita were also captured, but they are not here..."
Fang Yu pondered for a moment after hearing this. There was one more Luo Hao on the list, but he felt that this was not the girl's intention to hide it. After all, Luo Hao was not a key figure. Maybe she let it slip, or maybe she didn't know.
How many people have been arrested and brought here?
However, this reminded him that if Luo Hao also fell into the hands of the mystic, Miss Nightingale, the box and Parker, who he originally thought might not be really safe, fortunately he asked more.
The silver clockwork fairy suspended motionless in the darkness once again asked with a subtle buzzing sound: "Haven't you seen everyone? By the way, how did the mystics come to this place, and what exactly is here?
What place is it? Do you still remember what you saw when you arrived here?"
ZXC replied: "We boarded a ship on the way here. I, the Iron Guard among you, and another teammate were imprisoned in a cabin. The lower cabin had no portholes. The mystic confiscated us.
All personal belongings on us prevent us from knowing the exact time. However, your people told us that the ship sailed on the empty sea for roughly six hours, and then we arrived at this place - the dust storm had already blown, and I could only vaguely
It was recognized that the three of us had entered a fortress, and when we entered the city gate, we met Mr. Luo Yu, and Miss Jita was also there."
Fang Yu thought that he had indeed taken the air route. He asked about the appearance of the ZXC ship and learned that it was an airship. The speed of an airship was not as fast as that of a wing-type airship, and it could only travel on the open sea in six hours.
The voyage is more than ninety kilometers, and considering that there is a headwind heading north and we have to plunge into the dust storm area, we have to make another discount.
On the map, Bein and Tansnir are exactly seventy kilometers apart.
In addition, Bein, which is a military zone, happens to be a fortress-type city, which is also consistent with ZXC's description.
However, the mystics actually confiscated other people's personal belongings. Why did he still keep those things on his body? Is it because he was unconscious, so the mystics didn't feel the need to search too carefully? Thinking of this, he asked again: "
ZXC, did you see anyone else before boarding the ship and could you tell me what happened?"
ZXC shook his head slightly.
Then he described the situation at that time. They were looking for someone separately, and then they were attacked by the mystics who suddenly appeared. But the mystics at least treated them differently. They killed the smugglers, the guards and
Blind followers, but he captured them alive, blindfolded them, and escorted them away from that place.
He didn't see anyone else during this process, but he roughly guessed by intuition that they were going back, because the place where they boarded the ship should be the long trestle where they came from. When they arrived at that place
, the airship was already parked there waiting for them.
"But when they removed the gauze from our eyes, I saw the corpses of the previous guards," ZXC whispered: "At that time, the sailors on the ship were grabbing the hands and feet of the corpse of one of the great swordsmen.
Throwing him off the deck, the strange thing is, how come those people are on the ship?"
Fang Yu couldn't help but be startled when he remembered the few guards who had missed them.
If the mystic attacked those guards, there was no need to bring their bodies to the deck.
And the other party should not easily board a strange ship. In fact, under such circumstances, if they see a ship of unknown origin docking at the port, they should go back and report it.
ZXC continued: "...So I suspect that the guards may know the people on the ship, but in this case, it means that the mystics are related to the smugglers."
In Clockwork Goblin, Fang Plover asked with a synthesized tone: "So you think the mystic is killing people and silencing them?"
But ZXC shook his head: "But in Aitaria, there is such a thing as murder and silence. That's not just one or two people."
He seemed a little hesitant and said: "But if you don't think so, I really can't understand why the mystics attack us."
In fact, there is, Fang Plover thought.
However, there are still some doubts.
For example, why do the mystics want to silence the blind followers? Have they discovered that Her Royal Highness is investigating these blind followers?
So what the mystics are really worried about is what kind of information these people will leak after falling into the hands of Her Highness the Princess? Will they be exposed behind the scenes?
But Fang Yu has not forgotten that the orders of the mystics come from the Star and Moon Council. If they are really related to these blind followers, is the same for the Star and Moon Council? If this is true, then the hands of the blind followers
It's a bit too far. The Council of Stars and Moon is in Kaolin, the northern border of Ithurian, but the blind followers are not Dragon Worshipers.
And how do the mystics plan to deal with the Chosen Ones who intervened? Kill them? But ordinary methods have no effect on the Chosen Ones. Even if they lose the Starlight, they will just return to the Star Gate. The Mystics
You shouldn't be confused about what 'Stargate Port' is.
Or are they planning to imprison them here forever? But this is not an option, the news will leak out sooner or later, and the sandstorm will not continue endlessly.
For a moment, Fang Yu couldn't understand what these mystics wanted to do.
However, he also roughly grasped the information he wanted.
So after a moment of silence, he said: "I already have a plan on how to rescue you, but I still need to confirm some details and the whereabouts of other people. So you may have to wait a little while, I will get this thing out first.
Stay in this place, and if you need to contact me in any case, just tap the shell three times."
"no problem?"
ZXC nodded in agreement.
Fang Yu coughed slightly and said a little embarrassedly: "Remember to be gentle, this thing is very expensive."
ZXC looked at him with a strange look - through the clockwork fairy's eyes.
"By the way," Fang Plover hurriedly avoided the topic: "There is one more thing I may need your help with."
"Please say."
"There is a secret room under this cellar. Try to find its location. There is a wine called 'Desert Blood' stored in it. If you can, help me find it before I come back."
ZXC was stunned: "Wine?"
"I took on a small task about it before."
ZXC nodded again, thinking that the other party was indeed different from them. Under such circumstances, they still had the leisure and elegance to explore the hidden mission. The place where they were imprisoned was actually an underground wine cellar that had been abandoned for a long time, and there were no
Although there is a lock on the outside of the prison facilities, you can still move freely inside the cellar.
Fang Plover then planned to leave.
But before leaving, he suddenly remembered something and asked with some curiosity: "By the way, how did you keep track of time when you were sailing on the sea? Because it wasn't that the mystics took your time in the first place.
Have all personal belongings been confiscated?"
Mentioning this matter, ZXC also sighed a little.
"Your people came up with a way to break open a wooden cup filled with water to make a simple water leak, and then counted the time of each drip by silently counting the heartbeats. A normal person's heartbeat is about ninety times.
Every minute, of course the timing error will be very large, but it is only about half an hour, which is better than having no concept of time at all.
...In this way, the three of us took turns monitoring, and we roughly arrived at this time, so I would say between six and seven hours."
Fang Yu couldn't help but be surprised after hearing this. Indeed, this rough calculation of time was of great help - there is only one city, Bein, within a hundred miles of Tansnir's voyage. If the three of them had fallen asleep with their heads covered as soon as they boarded the ship,
, then he has a big head now.
After all, if a city with the characteristics of a fortress expands to within the twenty-four or even thirty-six-hour flight range of Tansnir, there will really be more than just Bein.
I didn't expect that fat guy Luo Hao to have this trick.
He then pulled up his goggles and glanced at the two guards not far away. Seeing that they were still unaware of what was happening below the cellar, he turned around and left with confidence.
Next, under the guidance of Miss Tata and, of course, Lady Fang Nini, Fang Plover found out one by one the locations of the other two underground prisons where 'prisoners' were held. Naturally, these places were also guarded by guards, but the guards
The strength cannot be said to be rigorous, so Fang Plover repeated his old trick and slipped the clockwork fairy in.
Inside he finally found Luo Hao, Wu Xiaopang, and of course the priestess and others. But just as he expected, Luo Yu was not imprisoned in this place. And from Wu Xiaopang, he also learned that
Another news, the box was also captured and was probably locked up with Luo Yu.
After finding the others, Fang Yu was still not in a hurry to release everyone. He still asked everyone to calm down for a while - although if he really wanted to do this, it was not impossible - a few ordinary guards,
Still can't stop him.
However, this 'prison riot-style' rescue method of finding one place, rescuing one, and then leading others to rescue the remaining people was obviously not favored by him. He had planned it early on, and if he wanted to create
Chaos, you can do this, but in a situation where the strength of the enemy and ourselves is very different, this is obviously not a good idea.
The best course of action at the moment is to launch a sudden attack before everyone reacts, and rescue as many people as possible in the shortest possible time - and then evacuate as quickly as possible according to the pre-planned route.
Of course, the ideal situation is that no one notices it from the beginning to the end. That would be even better.
However, I understand that this is unlikely.
After finding the others, Fang Plover released the clockwork goblin and began to confirm the general terrain and distribution of guard troops in the outer area.
Due to the use of non-attribute magic power, he has an almost natural advantage under the surveillance spells of the mystics, and he can unscrupulously display his expertise as a combat craftsman - and the mystics probably never imagined that there would be anyone in this world who could.
Use multi-colored or colorless magic.
Probably out of confidence in his own magic, there were not many troops in the outer area of the fortress in such harsh weather. Of course, there would still be guards guarding the intersections and entrances and exits of various passages, but overall the defense was very good.
Weak, Fang Plover roughly estimated through Clockwork Fairy's observation that the number of guards in this area would not exceed thirty.
And they are all of average level.
In other words, it is the level of an ordinary soldier in his early tenth level.
When facing the enemy head-on, they can roughly compete with the people of Rufu's Shield, but in front of the Seven Seas Brigade, they are basically useless.
After investigating this point, Fang Yu was not impatient. Instead, he went into a room, stole a notebook, and began to survey and map a simple topographic map through his own clockwork fairy. His experience in this aspect
Although the craftsmanship is not as good as that of 'professionals' like Parker and Alyssa, it is better than the Clockwork Fairy's vision. The directions of each passage appear more 'intuitive', so there will not be much error in drawing them.
On the topographic map, the locations of the three dungeons were roughly distributed in a Z-shaped pattern, and the place where he was originally imprisoned was almost in the center. Fang Plover also paid special attention to the north of this area, where the city wall was
There is a fortress that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If their actions are discovered in advance and lead to an attack, they can retreat to that place and defend it for a period of time.
The fortress is connected to the outside of the castle. If there is no way to retreat, you can also take refuge in the sandstorm. Although it is dangerous outside, you can choose to resurrect in the wild temple after death, which is at least much better than staying in this place.
.
While Fang Piao sneaked through the fortress, he carefully planned every detail of his rescue plan. Although seriously speaking, this was an unprecedented experience for him as the 'captain', but he didn't
After eating pork, I have always seen pigs running away.
He has read and seen so many classic battle cases. Experience and lessons can always be applied mechanically, right?
Even after investigating the outer area, Fang Plover was not busy rescuing people, but continued to go deeper into the inner court.
There is an arch at the junction of the inner courtyard and the outer area. There are patrolling soldiers there, but the guarding is not strict either. Fang Pulver can roughly guess why. The castle is divided into three areas. The inner area where the local military commanders and their families live.
The central area of the city should be the most heavily defended area.
The inner courtyard should be the guest room area where the mystics live. Compared with the strength of the mystics, the strength of the guards outside is really not worth mentioning. Asking them to protect the former is basically unnecessary. And the mystics still have
It is understandable that he is a knight guarding the temple, so his defense is tight on the outside and tight on the inside.
However, this gave Fang Pliance an opportunity to take advantage of.
"Miss Tata," he asked in a low voice after sneaking through the courtyard there: "Is my equipment you found earlier in a certain room here?"
Tata nodded slightly.
"Take me to that place." Fang Yu said immediately.
The goblin lady looked at him and nodded gently.
The appearance of the inner courtyard is quite different from the outside. If the dusty fortress outside looks like a chilling military zone, there is some atmosphere of life here. Occasionally, you can still see the corridors and courtyards.
There are some trees on both sides of the open-air corridor, but at the moment they are all covered by the yellow sand in the sky.
The wind and sand also made it easier for him to infiltrate. Several times, Fang Plover passed by the patrolling guards without the other party realizing the presence of outsiders.
However, the ability of the combat craftsman is also greatly restricted here, but the clockwork fairy cannot be released in the open air at all. Even if it is released, the remote control will be greatly interfered with. Fang Plover has to be careful, almost
Progressing inch by inch, I have avoided being noticed by others.
Whenever he saw mystics and palace guards, for the sake of safety, he would not approach them and would only take detours to places with fewer people.
After walking around for a few times, Fang Plover roughly discovered that this place seemed to be loosely defended, but in fact it was much tighter than outside.
He only circled in some peripheral areas to avoid the risk of being discovered.
However, a few times, he still forcibly released the clockwork goblin, roughly identified several suspicious locations, and recorded them in his notebook. There were seven or eight places in total. If it were a box, Luo Yu and the others would be imprisoned here.
If it's an area, it should be at the locations he marked.
After getting the general information, Fang Yu continued to move towards the destination under the leadership of Miss Goblin.
The mystics probably guarded Luo Yu and others closely, but they obviously didn't care that much about their equipment. The last place Tata took him to looked like a warehouse, and there was no one guarding that place.
——It's just a lock on the door.
Seeing the lock, Fang Yu was about to ask Miss Tata how she got in before.
Nini had already jumped off his head, using her hands and feet to climb up the nearly vertical door with vigorous movements, and came to the lock. She stretched out a small paw in the keyhole.
I took it out, and then with a click, the lock opened.
Fang Yu looked at this scene dumbfounded——
No, isn't Nini's abilities inherited from the dark dragon? Would Nicol Bolas be able to do this?
But Tata sighed, and the ghostly voice told him:
"Parker taught her."
"Very good." Fang Yu thought to himself, that Papalar man is dead.
He stretched out his hand and was about to open the lock, but at this moment, two voices of conversation came from not far away.
