There is another large river lying between the lumber mill and the plain. There is a shaky-looking suspension bridge on the river. There is also a simple camp near the suspension bridge. A few kingdom soldiers in rags are talking around a fire.
What, I was immediately confused. What is the relationship between these soldiers and the troops with the yellow military flag? Are they the advance team?
I carefully crossed the suspension bridge. When the soldiers guarding the bridge saw someone approaching on the bridge, they immediately stood up and surrounded me. A captain looked like he was pointing at me and yelled, "Who is here? What are you doing here?"
"
I was stunned and replied: "I'm from Hurricane City."
"What, are you sent by the king to rescue us?"
I thought for a while, this might be another mission, so I replied: "I am a newly promoted swordsman in the kingdom. Is there anything you can help me with?"
The soldier captain looked excited: "I thought the kingdom had forgotten us soldiers of the kingdom who fought bloody battles!"
The soldier captain continued: "We were originally the cavalry of the Kingdom's Flying Knights Corps. Three months ago, we received an order from the Kingdom to encircle and suppress the rebels on the Mustang Plain here - the Golden Knights. Two months have passed, and our people
The battles became less and less, and the kingdom stopped even sending supplies. Later I found out that the area near the logging mill that was originally the route had been eroded by the power of the undead, and all the troops who sent armaments were killed there and turned into undead.
The rebel Golden Knights here are very powerful. More than two months ago, they took advantage of the plains to overwhelm our army. Our army commander Del also lost his life in that tragic battle. From then on
We can only be trapped on this suspension bridge. Two months have passed and our supplies have been completely exhausted. If there are no more reinforcements, we will have no choice but to starve to death here."
When he said this, he stopped talking. He sat next to the bonfire and sighed for a while. Several other people walked towards a dilapidated military camp. It seemed that that was the stronghold of this remnant soldier, forming a stronghold with the Golden Knights waving their flags opposite.
The contrast is huge, even a blind person can see the previous battle situation.
Seeing that there was nothing to gain, I quickly sat next to the fire and said to the soldier captain: "Sir, the Golden Knights should also be the army of the kingdom. Why did they go to the plains and become rebels?"
The soldier captain sighed and said: "Yes, the Golden Knights Legion was originally the leader of the four major knight corps in the kingdom, and its leader Dak was one of the only sky knights in the kingdom. The matter started three years ago
, in that year, the little princesses of the kingdom, Misha and Dak, fell in love, but also in that year, the terrible plague of the undead came. Unfortunately, the princess was also infected with the plague, and the old king had no choice but to force the ministers to
It was decided to exile the princess to the plague cemetery and leave her to fend for herself."
"Duck will definitely not agree, right?" My interest was aroused. I didn't expect that the task I took had such an interesting background story. "Yueheng" is indeed a big deal!
The captain smiled bitterly: "Dak is a very stubborn person. His persistence is just like the loyalty of his knights to him. On the third day after the princess was sent to the plague cemetery, Dak led his elite troops to charge
He broke the necromancer's restriction and came to the ancient house. Unfortunately, he did not find Princess Misha. On the contrary, he angered the old king. For this reason, they fell out. Dark took his knights and left the royal team. The old king became angry.
, dispatched the Kingdom's second most powerful Flying Knights Legion to encircle and suppress Dark's Golden Knights. God knew that the Golden Knights could be so sharp. They completely defeated us in just three days. Dark has also completely embarked on such a journey.
A road of no return.”
I was secretly shocked that this matter was related to Princess Misha's mission. The reason why Captain Dark couldn't find Misha was probably because Misha's soul had been extracted.
"Young man, whether our group can return to Hurricane City alive depends on whether you can bring a message back for us." The soldier captain finally stated his request, and the task prompt also came: Are you willing to accept Luo's request?
Captain Jie’s instructions with a message?
I hesitated for a moment. It would be too simple if I only accepted the task of delivering the message. I only need to return to the city to complete the task. The reward for the task is also meager as you can imagine. If there is no follow-up task, I will lose a lot.
Got it!
Take risks! Only taking risks will bring great rewards!
After gently waving his hand to select "No", Captain Roger unexpectedly smiled meaningfully at this time: "Young man, do you think this matter is too simple?"
I nodded and said righteously: "As a swordsman of the kingdom, I have the courage to challenge Dark!"
Roger's face froze. It seemed that the program was already selecting the next tasks. Sure enough, within a few seconds, Roger continued: "Young man, this is not an easy thing. You must have the courage to sacrifice your life!"
Go and get something to prove yourself from Dark's army!"
