"I have to stand up and stop this war. This is a responsibility that I cannot shirk as the princess of the kingdom."
Ten years ago, a large-scale war broke out between humans and orcs. It was a battle like a meat grinder. The alliance of major city-states in the Monty Kingdom suffered a tragic victory at the cost of losing nearly 400,000 knights.
Then the weapons were collected, the military defense lines were redrawn, and the orcs were driven into the desert.
The current peace is hard-won. If the two races fight again, the continent of Azeroth will once again become a bloody slaughterhouse.
"Oriental, I need your help now." Liya turned her attention to Chen Feng, and she could only place all her hopes on him at the moment.
"What do you want me to do? Just ask." Chen Feng asked.
"You immediately set off for Petersburg, inform Lord Gladstone of Carroll's plot, and ask him to send the knights to stop the war." Leah frowned, and suddenly she had an idea and put on the purple robe she was wearing on her chest.
He took off the crystal necklace and said, "Take this, they will believe what you say."
"I will take you away together, and then you can tell the city lord yourself." Chen Feng took the necklace, but he did not intend to leave Liya alone in the lair.
Orcs have always been cruel and bloodthirsty, and they will do terrible things at random.
"I am now the target of the orcs' special surveillance. Take me with you. The target is too big and it will be difficult for you to escape."
"Princess Leia, you have to understand that the orcs don't know how to show mercy. What's more, they are currently confronting the Kingdom Knights, and they are very likely to use you as a shield."
"You don't have to worry about this. I am still a princess no matter what. I have the support of the entire Monty Kingdom behind me. The orcs dare not touch me easily." Leah curled her lips and said: "Easterners, if you are really worried about my safety
, then hurry up and bring reinforcements from Petersburg."
"Well, keep this for self-defense, although it may be useless."
Chen Feng loaded the four remaining bullets into the same magazine, loaded the bullets, and threw the gun to Leah along the gap in the cage.
"Is Lord Gladstone trustworthy? What if he is also a confidant of Carroll?"
This kind of thing must be clarified in advance, otherwise Chen Feng will be like a meat bun beating a dog and falling into a trap.
"He is trustworthy. I guarantee with my life that he is a very respectable elder." Leah nodded firmly, her eyes full of trust and admiration.
After formulating a plan to seek help, Chen Feng then had to consider how to escape from the prison?
The orc's cave was deep and dark, surrounded by hard stone walls, but the weak moonlight still filtered in through the hole behind him.
"This wall should be connected to the outside world." Chen Feng pulled at it twice, and the sand and gravel fell loose. It was not as indestructible as imagined.
So he used his hands to dig out a small hole at the bottom of the stone wall and stuffed the gun that had pulled the fuse into it.
With a violent explosion, the entire stone wall collapsed, making it vulnerable to the enemy.
"Princess Leia, wait for me, I will come back to save you." Chen Feng jumped out of the cage and fled hurriedly outside the lair with the help of the cover of the night and the jungle.
The orcs who were left guarding the cave woke up from their sleep after hearing the noise, and rushed over in a daze to find out the cause.
"Who will save me? I can't breathe." Leah put her hands on her chest and lay on the ground shaking her legs.
"Quick, go and call the witch. If something happens to her, we will all be executed by the leader."
After being teased by Leah, the orcs really ignored Chen Feng.
The focus of all the orcs and wizards is on Leah, a spy sent by humans. Compared with the noble princess, her presence is so low that no one would notice even if he disappeared.
After Chen Feng climbed out of the orc's lair, he went straight to Mitchell's defense line.
It's a long way to get to Petersburg, and you'll have to go all the way to Petersburg with just two legs, so you have to steal some transportation first.
There were more than a dozen war horses tied to the outer station of the Black Gold Knights, and Chen Feng had some twisted thoughts about them.
He first collected a large amount of thatch and dry firewood in the woods and piled them into several hills, and then lit them one by one with a lighter. The burning flames illuminated the night sky and soon attracted the attention of the knights.
When the sentry went to check, Chen Feng sneaked around behind, untied all the reins of the horses, lit the manes on the horses' tails, and made them run in all directions in panic.
And he, hiding among the panicked horses, headed towards Petersburg under the cover of the hazy night.
The sky gradually brightened, and the outline of the main city of Petersburg appeared in front of Chen Feng.
Different from the dilapidated scene of the small town of Leka, Petersburg is lined with high-rise buildings and has thick walls. It is surrounded by a moat dozens of meters wide and has three suspension bridges for human access. It looks like a main city.
"As expected of a big castle, it just feels different."
Chen Feng was about to ride into the city, but was blocked by the guard at the door.
"Dismount, please show me your knight's badge?" The guard stopped Chen Feng and asked sternly.
The war horse under Chen Feng's crotch was wearing black and gold armor. It was obviously a war horse belonging to the Carroll clan. However, the owner of the horse was wearing strange decorations, which naturally attracted the attention of the guards.
In the Kingdom of Monty, only knights who have been awarded the honor are eligible to own this kind of exclusive war horse.
"Knight Pattern Yao? What is that?" Chen Feng was confused and didn't know what was going on.
"Arrest him first, and then torture him severely." Several guards subdued Chen Feng decisively and pushed him to the ground. "We suspect that you are a spy from another country. Please cooperate with the investigation."
"What's going on?"
General Dika, who happened to be on patrol, saw this scene and came over to ask the reason.
"General Dika, this weird guy rode into the city on a war horse of the Carol clan, but he doesn't even know what Knight Wenyao is? We thought it was strange, so we arrested him and planned to torture him for interrogation."
"No need for trial, just put him on death row."
Dika had great contempt for the Carroll family. If he met their knights in the territory of Petersburg, he would kill them whenever possible and never leave them alive.
"I was sent by Princess Leia to ask for help from Petersburg. Please let me see Lord Gladstone."
"Please, before you make this up, can you find some reliable evidence? Princess Leia has never left the palace. Even if she left, she is protected by the most elite Golden Knights. How could she send you to Petersburg for help?
Also, the knights of the Carroll family always choose to take a detour when passing through Petersburg. Who dares to ride a war horse into the city with such arrogance like you? You must be tired of living."
Dika grabbed Chen Feng's head, and the amethyst necklace hanging around his neck caught his attention, "This necklace is good, I accepted it, and I don't accept it for nothing. I will send someone to give it to you before the execution."
A full meal.”
Several guards roughly tied up Chen Feng and forced him into the water prison.
"Why am I so miserable?" Chen Feng stood in the smelly dirty water, speechless.
There were several rotting corpses floating around, with rats lying on them gnawing on the flesh.
