Rise In Calradia - Chapter 387

In some woods outside Amira, a man dressed in tatters who looked like a refugee staggered down a dilapidated path. Holding a cane made of broken branches in one hand and covering his stomach with the other, he looked no different from those hungry refugees.

But as he went deep into the woods, a wolf howl suddenly startled him, he took a big step, and his drowsy eyes suddenly flashed a little cold light, constantly looking at the surrounding environment. I don’t know when there was a sharp knife in the dry palm that was covering my stomach.

“You bastard…” the man muttered in a strange, barely audible accent, and the seemingly tattered cane wrapped in rags also revealed its original appearance, under the rags, in the tattered In the middle of the wooden stick, there is a slender dagger hidden. With a slight force, he can break the wooden stick and quickly pull out the dagger, penetrating the small gaps in the seemingly incomparably strong armor, with ease. Take people’s lives.

He stared at the nearby grass and trees. He knew that in this mountainous country in the west, after the earthquake, many wild beasts in the mountains and forests ran to places not far from the human settlements, while the forest rangers, lord hunters and patrols were busy with construction. If you are not careful, it will become the food of wild wolves and black bears.

He waited for the attack of the beast, and he did not dare to relax for a moment. Once the beast found one, its cunning relatives might have surrounded the whole area. He doesn’t know if he can win a whole pack of wolves, but the burden is on his shoulders, he must!

But he waited for a long time, but he didn’t find the trace of those wolves. Just when he was wondering, with a loud laugh, a figure suddenly jumped down from the canopy not far away. He was dressed in a mixture of white and green, and it was hard to be found above the snow-covered canopy.

“Sea buckthorn, you’re late.” The man helped the trunk to slide down from the tree, and the man known as sea buckthorn also put away his sharp knife. As spies and second-rate assassins, they hide their names and change their code names. Once the code name is called, they are either allies or enemies.

“Their interrogation is very tight, and your jokes are not funny. I have killed a wolf on the way.” Seabuckthorn was obviously very displeased with the joke. He lifted his tattered cloak and showed him that he was hanging on his belt. With a small wolf’s tail, it proves that what he said is true.

“Those people in the mountains are more cunning than you think.” The other party shook his head, his face very serious: “This is not a joke, that Feng Byron’s subordinates are hiding near those wild paths, and they will imitate the wolf howl to passersby. , and sometimes even bring tame wolves, they use it to test those passers-by, if the opposite direction shows your skills as you just did, there will be at least four crossbows shooting at you from different directions.”

“…Thank you, I now know they have another trick…” Seabuckthorn was silent for a while, then nodded.

“So, what did you find in that dilapidated castle this time?” Yes

Fang began to question him in Saland.

“I’ve written it all down.” Seabuckthorn replied, taking out a small paper package from the messy hair and handing it to him. “The useful things are in it, and I’ll tell you the rest, lest there be any writing on it.”

“Tell me, in the name of the Sultan, what have you discovered?”

“Now is not a good opportunity to invade.” Seabuckthorn stroked his hair slightly, making it look the same as before, lowering his voice and getting a little closer to the other party. “If it was a few days ago, it would have been a good time. Their troops were celebrating their victory. The banquet was from morning to night. Everyone was immersed in beer and women. We could easily destroy their fortifications and positions. But now …they have ended all the celebrations, I have seen over 5000 soldiers assembled and thousands of warhorses taken care of. Merchants and reserves have allowed them to amass enough even the Sultan’s army to last a month and they are still strengthening the city’s defenses. I have seen these with my own eyes. I went deep into their castle, and mixed with the guards to check their inventory, which is very full. And their fortifications are built very quickly. , Von Byron forced his people to give up repairing houses and stockpiling for winter, building fortifications day and night, which would discredit him, but it would also greatly hinder our offensive. With their current progress , it won’t be long before they finish the outer walls and fortify Fort Amira, which will put us under siege.”

Speaking of this, Seabuckthorn was suddenly silent for a while, and then raised his head: “Some bad rumors may be coming true. Count Dilinnad of Swadia is worried that the Sultan will plunder his land north, and he has persuaded him Many lords send troops to Byron, I have seen a lot of them recently. And he himself is also calling up an army. It is said that there are more than 3,000 people, including 500 strong horses. They will come to support and bring Byron’s. Those mercenaries, as well as the boatmen they paid for, may have 4,000 or even 5,000 supporters here, causing us to suffer huge losses and eventually return in vain. If the sultan wants to conquer the west If so, I am afraid the best time has passed. The punishment has passed, the mountain people have begun to prepare, and we must pay far more than we thought to win.”

“Really?” The other party took the paper package, but did not accept it directly, but stared at the eyes of the sea buckthorn, as if examining him.

“Of course, no lies.” Seabuckthorn said firmly.

“Okay, others have said the same, but I’m not at ease. Your loyalty has been praised by the Sultan many times. Since even you said the same… very good, I will repay it as soon as possible.” The other party nodded, Hide the paper bag and leave quickly.

Seabuckthorn watched the other side go all the way, lowered his head and walked on another road. Although the limelight was tight, he still had to go around the town of Sailun in the north. He wanted to check again to see if there was any defense in the north. loopholes.

He drove like this for half an hour before barely seeing the edge of the forest and the stream that ran through the forest. The sea buckthorn had been driving for a long time, and he was very tired, so he put on a broken tree and stayed by the stream to rest for a while, drink some water, and eat some dry food.

“Ugh-“

Suddenly, the sound of wolf howling sounded again, Seabuckthorn was startled, and subconsciously asked, “Who?!” But then, he began to annoy his carelessness. If the other party was really Byron’s subordinate, wouldn’t he be exposed? Did you get yourself.

But soon, a nimble figure suddenly passed through the woods in front of him, and then the thing stopped, staring at him.

Seabuckthorn stood up and saw the appearance of the other party clearly. It was a skinny Rhodok Timberwolf. If it was normal, this thing would never provoke him. But it can be seen that the wolf’s belly has been shriveled, and saliva is dripping between its teeth. This beast must have been hungry for several days. Plus, he has been disguised as a weak traveler on the way. Spell it out.

So he stood up, took off his cloak to reveal his strong body, and drew his sharp knife at the beast. This time, the wolf really hesitated and did not dare to rush forward. He stared at each other closely, not daring to give it the slightest chance.

Soon, the wolf dropped his head and left with his tail tucked. Obviously, it has no other companions nearby~www.mtlnovel.com~ He doesn’t have to worry about an ambush nearby. Seabuckthorn breathed a sigh of relief and was ready to leave here immediately.

But suddenly, a sound of breaking the air sounded, and Seabuckthorn felt something hit the back of his neck. Before he could turn around, two other stinging pains appeared on his body. Soon, he lost it. perception.

“It’s solved.”

A few seconds later, in the nearby canopy and behind the thick trees, several figures appeared. They were covered in rags covered with leaves and twigs, and the “wild wolf” also excitedly ran to One of them begged for food.

“Well done, boy.” The man rubbed the wolf’s head and put a piece of jerky into the mouth of his good fellow.

“What now?” a Salander-like figure asked the only female member of them.

“Nothing, dispose of the body, and then go back. Byron said, solve this, let go of that, what we want them to know has been taken away, these lame idiots thought they could be under our noses Make moves.” Kress snorted coldly, and put away the dead seabuckthorn’s weapon.
