Chapter 418 The Road to Revenge

Although the Eternal Sleepers are a disgusting cult group, the spiritual network they have built is really amazing to Gawain. It is hard for him to imagine that when the overall development level of this world is still in the Middle Ages, How did a group of cultists come up with the idea of ​​building such a network of minds, and to build a virtual world in the network of minds - not even just the network of minds, there are so many things in this world that are inconceivable to Gawain, it is in The bottom layer maintains the backwardness and darkness of the Middle Ages, while the top layer is advanced like a near-future world on Earth. Two diametrically opposed and contradictory situations appear in one world at the same time, even though it is known that the unique magic technology caused this situation. The law of development and the aftermath of the magic tide hundreds of years ago, Gawain still couldn't help but be amazed from time to time.

Just like now, he saw Patty who had not seen him for a long time in the spiritual network. Two people who were hundreds of kilometers apart could talk face-to-face in the spiritual network, but in fact, in the real world outside, most ordinary people may Never hear anything new happening in the city next door.

As long as he thinks of this, Gawain is unbearable - the extraordinary people in this world may have become accustomed to enjoying the convenience of magic technology while appreciating the struggles of the low-level commoners and poor people, but the more he is exposed to these, the more Can't accept these.

Fortunately, the key step of magic net communication technology has been taken.

When these emotions emerged in Gawain's heart, Patty, who was resting beside the flower bed, finally saw "Uncle Selcy" not far away - the little girl was sitting alone today, and she didn't run around. Go, this is really unusual-she stood up from the bench and waved her arms vigorously at Gawain: "Uncle! Uncle! I'm here!"

Gawain had already confirmed that Selena Gerfen was not around, so when he heard Patty greet him, he greeted him with a smile. He glanced curiously beside the little girl: "Are you alone today?"

"Sister Serena seems to be sick these days and hasn't come," the little girl pouted and seemed a little unhappy, "You too, uncle, haven't shown up for several days..."

"Uncle is usually very busy." Gawain smiled and pressed the little girl's hair, but there was a trace of doubt in his heart: Selena Geerfen "sick"? Are you really sick? Or is there a big project for the Eternal Sleeper? Or something else happened?

Of course, little Patty couldn't answer these questions, and Gawain was just a little confused, and then he put it aside for the time being and chatted with Patty.

Then, without any surprise, he heard the current news about Glenn——

"Mom went out with a lot of knights," Patty said unhappily, "The people in the castle said there was a war outside, but they all thought I was a child and didn't want to tell me more... Only the maid sister told me that my mother will definitely come back..."

"certainly,

You have to believe the maid, and your mother will definitely come home. "Gao Wen smiled and said, stroking the little girl's hair.

Of course he knew where Lady Ropeney Grant was going.

The baroness should have gathered up the remnants of the nobles who had been scattered in the northern region and was leading them to the rock fortress on the border of the Holy Spirit Plain. She was accompanied by the loyal guards she had cultivated in the past ten years, as well as dozens of well-trained guards. A well-armed soldier of Cecil, she is on her own path of revenge, and she goes on, unafraid of any pain or suffering.

The hatred accumulated in ten years of forbearance is not so easy to release. For Gao Wen, the shelling on the gravel ridge was the beginning of the recovery of the southern border, and for Lady Ropeney Glenn, it was the beginning of revenge. To be honest, Gao Wen Du never thought that the seemingly weak and powerless lady would actually do this step - even he was startled when she sent a secret report that she would continue to send those nobles to death.

But he knew that he had better let Ropeni do it. In this matter, no one could do better and do more diligently than her.

All he had to do was do what he had promised—destroy the last noble resistance when the time was right, and protect Glenn and her daughter in the process.

He looked at the little Patty who was sitting beside him with his feet dangling, and asked casually, "Are you afraid that mother is not at home?"

"Don't be afraid," Patty raised her neck with a proud face, "I'm very courageous! And there are maids and sisters to accompany at night... and the new maids and guards in the castle recently, they will also give me Tell a story."

"The new maids and guards." Gawain casually said, calming down a little.

Those so-called "maids and guards" entered Glen Castle through the channel of Lady Ropeni before the war. They were well-trained steel ranger soldiers and MI operatives. To protect her castle and daughter while away from the territory—on the other hand, to monitor the situation in Glenland.

Gawain trusted Countess Ropeni very much. He believed that even if it was for revenge, the Countess would not betray the covenant he made with her, but he could not trust the loyalty of other people in the noble territory of this era - especially In Grantland, a place with a precedent for rebellion, Ropeney Grant herself apparently agreed.

No one can guarantee how long the interior of the Glenland will remain stable if the Countess leaves the territory and is "unaccounted for". As far as Gawain's information is concerned, it is possible to find information on Carroll, Peipo, Consco, etc. In the region, after the news of the fiasco of the noble coalition had spread, chaos had already appeared within a week, and he couldn't let this situation happen to Glenn.

Looking at the little girl Patty in front of him, Gawain was a little lost in thought.

At this time, Ropeney Glenn should have arrived or is about to arrive at the Rock Fortress. According to the previously agreed timetable, it was time for him to send his manpower to "receive" the Glenland - after all, if Cecil's army was victorious after a great victory But deliberately ignoring Glenn is easy to arouse suspicion.

...

Traveling in the wild and boundless wilderness, eating the worst food, wearing tattered clothes, not only to be entangled with the mud and gravel in the wilderness, but also always ready to fight those wandering wild wolves and brown bears... ...the past ten days have been a nightmare for Carroll and his companions.

Not to mention the shadows of the Cecilians in this nightmare, and of those terrible, whistling, terrifying magic that could set off a devastating explosion at any moment—though they were in the second half of the nightmare. It doesn't appear much anymore, but whenever he thinks of everything he experienced on the gravel ridge and the escape route, Viscount Carroll still can't help feeling chills all over his body.

But fortunately, any nightmare will have a time to wake up, and the long night will eventually usher in the sunrise.

After more than ten days of escaping, the only remaining noble army—probably the last glorious bloodline in the land of the southern border (at least the people in the team thought so) finally reached the end of their escape journey.

On the northern frontier, the mighty fortress that stood on the border of the Plains of the Holy Spirit finally appeared before them.

When the lofty city wall of the rock fortress appeared in the field of vision, Viscount Carroll almost burst into tears. The wind blew on his dry and gray face due to many days of hard travel and lack of maintenance. But at this moment, Mr. Viscount can completely tolerate and ignore the pain. He immediately waved his arms and said loudly to Viscount Consco, beside him: "Look! Rock Fortress! We are finally here! We are safe!"

"Thanks to the gods for your protection..." Viscount Consco also said excitedly, not forgetting to take a look at the admirable lady with great determination who led the team not far away, "Thanks to Lady Ropeni...she It really saved us all!"

Viscount Mary Oran couldn't help but glance in the direction of Ropeney Glenn. After seeing the slender figure riding on the horse, the face of the Viscount whose territory and Glenland were only separated by a small river appeared on the face. A moment of sophistication.

This is really a determined lady...a determined mind indeed.

But his complex look at this moment was fleeting, and the reassurance of safely arriving at the rock fortress prevailed at this moment.

The commander of the Rock Fortress, Sir Maryland, who was directly loyal to the royal family, stood on the high city wall, watching all the changes around the fortress with a vigilant look.

The recent news from the north and south of the fortress has made this high-ranking knight lord extremely worried. He has heard about the great changes that have taken place in the royal family-although he has only heard some inaccurate news, but it seems that a Great changes are about to loom over this kingdom, but the more worrying thing is in the south: south of the rock fortress, the Cecil family that has been silent for a hundred years, they are finally no longer silent.

The business trip from the south to the north brought shocking news, and the news came one after another. First, it was said that more than forty nobles in the southern border suddenly united to conquer Duke Cecil, and then it didn’t take long for 70,000 to come directly. The news that the allied army of people's nobles was wiped out by Cecil's Great Magician Corps - I don't know where this "Great Magical Corps" came from.

Sir Maryland couldn't believe it when he received the news, just kidding, a coalition of 70,000 people! How many people are there in Cecil?

That's 70,000 people, 70,000 people led by noble lords and knights! Even if it is 70,000 pigs, it is impossible for the Cecils to catch them so quickly, right? !

But what happened after this was deeply disturbing, and even made Sir Maryland believe that what the merchants from the South were saying was true - since then, all correspondence with the noble families of the South has been completely interrupted.

The nobles in the remote areas may not have contact with the rock fortress for a few months, but even the Carroll family outside a hill to the south has also lost contact, which is not very good.

Sir Maryland walked a little irritably on the city wall, thinking whether he should send a team of knights to the south to check the situation-or send a team of messengers to the south to see the situation in the name of visiting Carroll Land, but it was just before Just when these thoughts came to him, a personal soldier suddenly ran up from the side.

"General! Under the fortress...a large group of people came under the fortress!"

Sir Maryland was accustomed to letting soldiers call himself a general on any occasion. This was a habit he developed after taking charge of the fortress. Looking at the slightly flustered personal soldier in front of him, the general's face was slightly unhappy: "Frightened. What—a crowd of what?"

"Looks like beggars - but they call themselves the nobles of the South!"

Sir Maryland's expression froze.

He seemed to have no need to send knights and messengers to the south.
