Reggie did put too much energy into Sakason. Modeza, Tell, Salena, Charco... The most powerful intelligence agents around him were all surrounding one person. Reggie suspected this young man.
It was done deliberately to attract fire, and it was very successful.
A few days before he was imprisoned in the dungeon, Modesa even inquired about him. It was not until a group of werewolves rioted that Modesa temporarily forgot about Sakason.
Sakason still behaved well in the dungeon and was loved by everyone. Although he had not yet been formally sentenced, he had already taken the initiative to take on the hard labor. Even the jailers took more care of him. They left Sakason
A separate cell. Everyone knows the rules of the prison. A handsome young man like Sakason will be attacked sooner or later in a crowded cell. Rather than being abused by so many people, it is better to keep it to himself.
Tonight was a good day to start. Two jailers were ready, and the honest Sakason didn't seem to dare to resist. He just made a request to the jailer: "Please take me to the well and let me
Give yourself a scrub."
Come back after cleaning yourself. It seems that this is not the first time this young man has done this kind of thing.
The two jailers excitedly watched Sakason bathing at the well. The fog was very thick tonight, making it difficult to see clearly. They simply walked to the well and admired it carefully. Just as their throats became tight and their hearts beat faster.
At that moment, I suddenly felt that my mouth was full of water.
Where did so much water come from? After swallowing one mouthful after another, their cheeks were stretched into rubber balls, and there seemed to be an extra spring inside. The spring gushed out more and more rapidly, not just in their mouths, noses, and eyes.
water.
They couldn't breathe, their noses were bleeding from the water, but they couldn't even cough.
A few minutes later, the two jailers died of drowning by the well. Sakason calmly changed into the jailers' clothes and threw the two bodies into the well.
…
The night fog became thicker and thicker, and Natalie struggled to monitor the White Wolf King's camp from the air. In the past few days, he marched more than ten miles to Blackwater City every day, and now he was only 40 miles away from Blackwater City.
miles distance.
This distance is very sensitive. With the werewolf cavalry, forty miles is enough to launch a surprise attack. Natalie also received Reggie's order to directly bomb them if the White Wolf King continues to approach.
"The enemy camp is blocked by fog again," Tortosa said, "Please use more strength to completely blow away the damn fog!"
"It's not that easy. Human power cannot fight against nature," Natalie wiped her sweat. "And if the wind is too strong, we will be the first to suffer."
She tried her best to dispel part of the fog and continued to observe the enemy camp. After ten minutes, both Natalie and Tortosa noticed something abnormal.
"Is it too quiet?"
"A little bit."
"No one has come out of the tent for a long time."
"The bonfire is almost extinguished and no one is taking care of it."
"There are a few soldiers on patrol over there."
"It seems like they are just patrolling. It's been a few hours. Hasn't anyone replaced them?"
"Put down the ladder," Natalie said, "I want to get closer and take a closer look."
"You can't go!" Tortosa said, "What should we do if something happens to you? Let me go!"
"Let the soldiers step on the propeller to control this airship," Natalie stopped Tortosa and said, "The only person who can't go is you. If you have an accident, we will lose contact with the lord."
The soldiers lowered the ladder, and Natalie took the telescope and descended to the sky only more than a hundred feet away from the enemy camp. With the help of the telescope, she could clearly see every detail of the enemy camp.
A few minutes later, Natalie climbed up at a very fast speed and shouted to Tortosa: "This is an empty camp. There is nothing in it except sentries. The enemy has run away. Tell the lord, hurry!"
"
Reggie received Tortosa's call in one of the small castles on the third level of the castle. The enemy camp was empty. There was no doubt that the enemy army was heading towards Blackwater City. Reggie immediately ordered Natalie to pursue it.
, he also prepared to lead his soldiers to the city to meet the enemy.
But when he opened the door, he was shocked by the scene outside. No matter in his previous life or this life, Reggie had never seen such a thick fog. Even if the guard took a few steps forward, his figure would disappear in the fog.
inside.
"All the guards, gather around the Lord and stay within the sight of the Lord. What about you, idiot!" Modessa grabbed a guard who was just walking forward and kicked him hard. This strange battle started
The fog made Modesa very nervous. He said he felt murderous aura. Charka walking beside him also said he felt murderous aura. Salena also echoed: "There is indeed murderous aura. I smell it too."
What exactly is murderous aura? Reggie really couldn't imagine the smell of murderous aura. Salena said seriously: "That's the talent of an assassin. You can never learn it."
Everyone walked cautiously toward the city wall. Reggie suddenly stopped and said, "Do you know the way?"
The guards looked at each other in a tacit understanding, and then shook their heads at Reggie.
Reggie turned to look at Modesa, who wiped the sweat and fog from his face: "I didn't pay attention to the road and direction."
Reggie said angrily: "Then why are you walking around blindly?"
Reggie and his guards were not particularly familiar with Blackwater City. With visibility of less than five meters and no reference objects in front of them, they could easily get lost in the deep castle. But no one did.
Realizing this, we just walked forward according to our feelings, but everyone's feelings were still the same, so that after walking for more than half an hour, people didn't know where they were.
Reggie took out the compass Calaf made for him. He was used to having Abu to navigate. Reggie really didn't want to use such a primitive tool. Unfortunately, Abu was not with Reggie now.
This is so ridiculous, it feels like getting lost in your own backyard. Reggie took the compass and led everyone forward with difficulty until they reached the city wall. At this moment, they were facing an enemy attack.
This raid was fatal. The White Wolf King had taken too much advantage in the weather. Under such visibility, the accuracy of guns and artillery was entirely dependent on blindness. If the enemy troops were allowed to rush into the city and start hand-to-hand combat...
The anxious Reggie suddenly choked on a sip of water. This was really strange. He didn't drink the water, but a lot of water kept pouring into his mouth.
What happened? His nose and mouth were full of water! Reggie, who was good at swimming, immediately closed his nasal cavity. He wanted to spit out the water in his mouth, but when he opened his mouth, more water poured into his mouth.
Reggie held his breath with difficulty and looked around, but he saw that all the guards were showing signs of drowning. Even Modessa and Salena were squatting on the ground, holding their throats and struggling hard.
How is it possible? Drowned in the fog?
It seems that someone used witchcraft.
Reggie could hardly hold it in any longer, and his desire to breathe caused water to rush into his nasal cavity.
The surrounding fog thinned, and Reggie saw a familiar figure standing not far away.
It's Shakason, that's him. I didn't expect him to be a wizard!
Reggie used the last bit of his strength to pull out the musket. The pain of suffocation prevented him from aiming, but fortunately the opponent was very close. He was about to pull the trigger, but he didn't expect that the water flowing into his nose suddenly stopped. Reggie forced
He coughed and gasped, spitting out the water, and finally took in a breath of precious air.
What happened? Did Sakason let him go?
It wasn't that Sakason wanted to let Reggie go, but that he couldn't hold it in anymore. In the past minute, he suffered the same pain as Reggie.
