Welcome, please remember the address of this site: , mobile phone reading, so that you can read the latest chapter of the novel "Sword of Dawn" at any time...

That magical brilliance is so bright that it looks like a giant pillar connecting the heaven and the earth in the sky that has gradually dimmed at dusk. As long as it is a creature with vision, it is impossible to see it. Soldiers are certainly less likely to ignore it.

An elite force quickly left the fortress and followed the direction of the magic radiance into the wilderness on the edge of Pompeii Territory. Before the radiance dissipated, they found the source of this unusual burst of magic.

A "stone statue" made of a mixture of rock and crystal stood upright in the wilderness, holding a long sword and facing east, and near the statue, the soldiers found a huge stone full of characters.

The news was quickly sent to the rock fortress, and the commander of the fortress, Sir Walder Perridge, arrived at the scene before it was completely dark. He had seen that young face in some documents.

"This stone statue... the Marquis of Berke Rollan?" Walder muttered in disbelief, "This..."

At first, he subconsciously thought that it was indeed a stone statue, but he soon became suspicious and had some terrible associations-he found that the stone statue was so vivid, even every strand of hair and every fold of clothes was slender. Now, a series of crystal clear, still shimmering crystals are inlaid on the surface of the stone statue, as if growing from the "skin" of the "stone statue", which looks frightening.

This reminded the old knight of some recent information from the north.

The writing on the boulder near the statue seemed to confirm his judgment.

After carefully looking at the nicks on the boulder, the reliable old knight immediately turned to his adjutant: "Knight Margarita, contact Archduke Gawain immediately!"

An emergency communication from the Rock Fortress interrupted a regular communication between Gawain and Daniel. After listening to the words of the Margarita Knight, Gawain, who was sitting in the study, took a slow breath.

The news from the deepest part of the northern polluted area... arrived in front of him in the most unexpected way.

Belk Lauren turned into a stone statue? What has he been through? How did he get to the rock fortress? Why did he have that transformation? All this was confusing, but vaguely, Gawain guessed some truth.

On the holographic projection next to the desk, the female knight with brown shawl hair is waiting for an order: "Sir, what should we do with... the situation here?"

Gawain glanced at the holographic projection—behind Margarita,

He saw the wilderness north of the rock fortress. A standing "stone statue" was quietly standing between the gravel and the weeds. It was illuminated by the brilliance of the surrounding magic spar lamps. In the crystal's face, Gawain vaguely remembered the last time he saw him.

"Check whether the 'stone statue' has residual contamination factors, which are characterized by mixed arcane energy and unstable life reactions - if not, bring him back," Gawain instructed, not forgetting to remind, "Ten thousand Be careful not to damage one bit."

Although he didn't know what Belk went through, he could guess something: a brave knight should not continue to be exposed to the wilderness.

After the communication was over, Gawain raised his head and looked at Amber standing beside him. The latter was still in a dazed state at this time, and muttered in a low voice, "The entire Eastern Legion... Is this really the end?"

Gawain shook his head gently: "I'm afraid it's not just the Eastern Legion that will end."

Then he activated the magic net communication terminal again and called the emergency line of the military district: "Philip, come to the lord's mansion."

The situation in some areas of the Jumu crossing has been clear, and the current situation of the Eastern Frontier Corps has been clarified. Although further information from Solderling is needed to supplement and corroborate, many things can already be started.

He didn't wait too long. Thirty minutes later, Betty's voice came from outside the study door: "Master! Knight Philip is here!!"

Philip, dressed as a knight, walked into the study. After he entered the room, he first gave Gawain a salute, but before he could speak, the magic net communication terminal next to Gawain's desk suddenly lit up again, and at the same time made a buzzing sound. beep.

"Wait a moment." Gawain waved to Philip, motioning for the other party to wait a moment, and then turned on the communication device - judging from the special logo that appeared in the air after the activation of the magic net terminal, this was an emergency with a very high priority. Communication, if it is not very important information, will not be received through this line.

The communication device was activated, and the holographic projection above the device soon condensed a clear image. Soldering wearing a golden wig appeared in the image with a serious face: "We have important progress here."

Gao Wen nodded: "Say."

"We have reached the edge of the polluted area and rescued a group of soldiers of the Royal Army who had retreated from the north," Solderling said quickly and clearly, "According to them, all the control of the Royal Army at the giant wood crossing The district has been polluted by the 'Curse of the Crystal Cluster', the Boulder City has fallen, Earl Thorin died in battle, and most of the kingdom's army was destroyed. Duchess Victoria Wilder and her mountain army were trapped in the north. The status quo is unknown. Breaking through the siege, the status quo is unknown, a large number of crystal cluster giants have assembled an army and are moving in the direction of San Sunil."

"The soldiers of the Royal Army who retreated from the north?" Gawain's heart moved, but he suddenly thought of another piece of information he had just received, a warning from Belk Lauren, "Check the blood of those people first... "

Although Soldrin didn't quite understand it, he executed the order immediately. Gawain got up and went to the map of Ansu next to him, marking and deducing on the map according to what Soldrin had just reported.

Soon, the high-level ranger returned to the holographic projection again. Fortunately, the soldiers of the Royal Army rescued by the Iron Rangers did not carry any signs of infection.

"Who are those soldiers leading? How did they get to the south of the polluted area?"

"A knight named Mitchell, he and the team he led were one of the teams that followed the main force to the northwest, but the entire breakout team was ambushed by the 'Crystal Cluster' near the Zishui River Valley, and the main force was cut. Mitchell and his team were also separated from the main force - they started to move south because there was no hope of breaking out further north."

"Ambushed by the Crystal Cluster Legion?"

"Yes, those cluster infected people... Although they seem to have turned into monsters, we found that they are still rational, but their thinking and cognition have been completely heterogeneous, and they regard normal living beings as enemies..."

Soldrin and his Iron Rangers really gathered a lot of vital intelligence.

In the next period of time, Gawain asked a lot about the North, about the "cluster infected", and about the situation in the polluted area. Soldrin also detailed and quickly made a lot of information he collected along the way. 's report.

Gradually, the situation of the originally foggy Holy Spirit Plain finally became clear. Gao Wen quickly assembled all the known information in his mind. On the satellite map overlooking Ansu, a large number of vague and unknown areas were obtained one by one. Fill and perfect.

Belk Lauren brought the information about the Eastern Control Zone and the Eastern Front Army, while Soldrin got the first-hand information of the Royal Army. All the information confirmed each other and filled it completely. The main pollution zone, the crystal cluster The distribution of "monsters" and their many characteristics, the possible hiding places and escape routes of the survivors...all summed up.

Gawain turned his head and looked at Philip who was standing in front of him with a solemn face - this young knight was waiting for an order.

"The 1st Combat Corps and its affiliated Mechanized Corps - strike immediately, target, the Plains of the Holy Spirit."

"Yes!"

After thinking for a while, Gawain continued: "This time, I will also go out."

"You're going on an expedition?" It wasn't Philip who widened his eyes first, but Amber standing beside Gawain, "You're not..."

The shame of the elf stopped halfway through the conversation, and at least restrained herself from saying "the result of the last expedition left a psychological shadow on the spot", but she stared at her. It was obvious that he had revealed exactly what he was thinking.

"The situation is different," Gawain could guess what Amber wanted to say, but this time he was not angry, just smiled indifferently, "In the current situation, only by ensuring the victory of the war as much as possible can we have a future and hope."

Then he paused and sighed slightly.

"This kingdom has turned into an unfinished mess after all - it's time for me, the guy who climbed out of the coffin, to clean up for them."

Ten minutes later, Philip left the lord's mansion. He was going to the military area, summoned his adjutants and staff, reorganized all the information, and worked out a more complete and practical advance plan before leaving the lord's mansion. Amber also left the lord's mansion. Going to arrange a series of affairs of the Military Intelligence Bureau to ensure that all matters such as wartime intelligence and rear public opinion run in an orderly manner, Gawain left his study and came to Tyre's room——

Miss Siren is not soaking in her favorite big pool at the moment, but is entrenched on the west side of the room, occupying a huge space circle after circle. When the door opened, she was shaking the tip of her tail slightly , humming an unknown song.

It's not a human sound. The tune of the ballad is mixed with a lot of ethereal echoes and harmonics like ocean waves. It sounds wonderful and mysterious, but it seems to have a richer frequency beyond what the human ear can recognize. , A complex range of sounds that only the people of the deep sea can hear.

Gawain came to discuss matters with this Kraken. He didn't expect that the other party was not only sleeping, but even singing - to be honest, it was really rare for her to do something that was in line with the racial identity of "Kraken", so much so that Gao Wen couldn't help but ask, "Do you still sing?"

"I'm a siren, is this our instinct?" Tyr poked the floor with the tip of his tail, expressing his dissatisfaction with Gawain's question in a "duo duo" voice, and then asked curiously, "By the way, do you have something to do with me? Look at your serious face... I'm afraid it's not a small matter."

Gao Wen nodded and said straight to the point: "I would like to learn more about the situation you mentioned last time about sensing the smell of 'food' in the northeast direction."

"Ah..." Tyre sighed softly, the meandering snake tail slid on the floor, and moved his body a little bit in front of Gawain, "It seems that it's really not a big deal..."

...

In the deepest part of the fortress of disobedience, beyond the boundary of the material world, and across the shadow world that mirrors the present world, next to the fortress of disobedience in the shadow world, a huge corpse is as silent as it has been for thousands of years.

The giant deer, which is as majestic as a hill, is quietly suspended between the broken floating island and the rubble. Countless twisted metal wreckage crisscrosses the space around the corpse. Around the giant deer, a layer of holy, powerful The light of the sense of feeling floats slightly as if it will never go out, and in a farther place, most of the ancient magic devices with a history of thousands of years inside and outside the rebel fortress have been extinguished, leaving only the faint glow of runes slowly flashing in the dark. , to accompany the body of Julu Amoen that has fallen for three thousand years.

This immutable silence seems to last forever.

But all of a sudden, something changed--

On the huge corpse, a shimmer of light slowly flowed, and the tightly closed eyes of Julu Amoen quietly opened a little.
