Chapter 986 Return
Listening to Duke Baldwin's words, Heidi nodded slightly.
The key to this disaster from the very beginning was the Typhons themselves, and the subsequent performance of the Typhons will undoubtedly affect the final direction of this matter. If it goes out of control completely, then the whole of Typhon will inevitably become a polluted area. At that time, no matter whether Cecil is willing to be involved in a larger-scale war, this war that should not be fought will definitely continue. But if the Typhons are in control...
Then there is a lot of room for action.
Thoughts fluctuated in his heart, Heidi couldn't help but sigh softly: "Although every god's loss of control means a huge disaster... But obviously the god of war is more troublesome than other gods."
"What I'm most worried about now is, if the war continues, will the God of War undergo unknown subsequent changes," Duke Baldwin said solemnly, "He may gradually get rid of his madness as the war 'returns to the right track', Returning to the position of the righteous god, it is also possible that the state of madness is irreversible, this mad god will become stronger and stronger as the war continues, and will begin to affect more people affected by the war..."
"At the end of the day, we don't know enough about the gods," said Archduchess Victoria with a nonchalant expression. "We're not sure if the mad state is reversible, or if the god of war can draw strength in the course of war—we just know His power comes from the beliefs of mortals, but the process of absorbing it... can't be quantified at this stage, and we don't have a reliable means to collect people's ideological tendencies on Typhon."
Heidi snorted, and said while rubbing his forehead lightly: "Anyway, winning Winter Wolf Castle is the first step. The question now is how to take the second step."
Duke Baldwin said while thinking: "According to our previous plan, after occupying Winter Wolf Castle, we should immediately advance to the Winterhold defense line and the direction of Shadow Swamp, and control the assembly point of the Typhons in the north and the hub of the cross-border railway. Station, then rely on armored trains and mechanized troops to advance rapidly, and attack Aldenan in the shortest time. If Aldenan is difficult to capture, quickly occupy the traffic hub of Tarenkins and cut Typhon's grain production area. And industrial raw material transportation hubs, trying to find ways to trigger widespread food shortages and industrial shutdowns…”
"The people of Typhon should thank Andersa Wendell, now this will not happen," Hetty shook his head, "Since it is now known that Typhon did not really declare war, and they are fighting against this disaster internally, It is necessary to make adjustments to our promotion plan. Grand Consul Victoria, what is your opinion?"
"Let the First Army temporarily stop advancing eastward, build fortifications in Winter Wolf Fort, and at the same time find favorable terrain to set up strongholds in the north and south of Winter Wolf Fort, and block the entire area with long-range artillery positions - this blockade will be maintained in the first stage. As long as this blockade line is not lost, all actions on Typhon’s side will fall into a passive state,” Victoria explained her views in a clear and organized manner-in the three-member ruling group, her military experience Obviously richer than the other two,
"At the same time, further gathering intelligence inside Typhon...
"As of now, the intelligence network we set up in Typhon has been greatly affected by the situation over there. For the protection of intelligence personnel, many dark lines have been latent lately, but if the situation over there continues to be chaotic, the intelligence The activities of personnel will become safer...
"In addition, I think it is necessary to grasp the recent changes in the situation of Typhon through some other means, such as the line of the High Mountain Kingdom and the Silver Empire-they have a lot of communication with Typhon in the southern part of the mainland, maybe they have come from there. The information provided by Andersa Wendell can be used to corroborate the information provided by Andersa Wendell. Of course, our intelligence strength over there is relatively weak, probably only the Silver Empire can provide some reliable information, but it is better than nothing... "
Victoria finished speaking her thoughts one by one, and then left the time to Hetty and Duke Baldwin. For the next period of time, the topics of the three Grand Consuls revolved around the follow-up actions against Typhon.
After the discussion came to an end, Hetty finally had time to pick up the water glass on the table, and Duke Baldwin Franklin, who was on the opposite side of the communication channel, hesitated for a moment and asked, "Archon Hetty, Your Majesty is there. ...haven't heard back yet?"
Heidi was holding the water glass, her face was a little complicated for a while, she shook her head, and her tone was a little worried: "There is still no news..."
"...Your Majesty will return safely," Victoria said in a cold voice. "He is someone who can compete with the gods."
After a few more conversations, the two grand consuls, Bai Dewen and Victoria, said goodbye to Hetty, and closed the magic web terminals one after the other. With the slight humming that remained after the device was turned off, it gradually subsided. Heidi was finally alone in the office - the room became very quiet for a while, so quiet that Heidi could hear her breathing.
She suddenly took a deep breath, rubbed her eyebrows forcefully, and then hesitantly stretched her hand to the drawer beside her. After a while, she took out a silver-white, silver-white, small box from the inner layer of the drawer. small ring.
Hetty stared at the ring for two seconds before reaching out and trying to rub its surface and inject magic into its interior.
Just like when she tried it yesterday, the Mithril Ring was unresponsive, and this was her sixth attempt in the past 24 hours.
Heidi couldn't help rubbing her brows again. She took this opportunity to lower her head, as if to prevent anyone from seeing her irritability and anxiety at this moment - even though there was no one else in the office except her.
In her hand is the Ring of Mithril, the "emergency communication tool" left by Gawain before he left. It is said that it uses the superb technology from Tal Lund, which can maintain communication even across continents.
Tallond is far from the human world, separated by endless oceans and eternal storms, and the existing magic net communication cannot reach it, so Gawain left such a thing to ensure that when the situation on the mainland changes drastically and the empire faces a crisis, he can communicate with him. emergency contact.
But the thing didn't respond now—Hetty didn't know what was wrong, whether it was her own operation that was wrong, or that the precision device was malfunctioning, or... something worse.
It upset her, but there was no one to talk to.
She threw the mithril ring back on the table, the metal collided with the table and made a crisp sound, the ring bounced twice on the table, and then rolled aside and stopped.
And almost at the same time as she threw the Mithril Ring back on the table, a magic net terminal that had just been shut down a while ago suddenly lit up, and there was a rapid humming sound from the base of the machine, and the hologram above it. The projection showed the identification mark of the internal dedicated line of Fort Winter in the North - Hetty was stunned for a moment, and then quickly connected to the communication, so Duchess Victoria, who had just disconnected, appeared in the holographic projection again.
"Archon Victoria?" Hetty looked at the projection in surprise, "What happened..."
"The North Harbor Hub Tower has just received an identification signal from the sky above the northern sea," Victoria Wilder said in a cold and somewhat hasty voice before Hetty could finish, "It should be the two sets of large magic nets carried by His Majesty. The terminal is sending letters!"
Hearing the news, Hetty's first reaction was to glance in amazement at the Mithril Ring that he had just thrown aside on the table, and then stared at Victoria: "Are you sure? Are you in touch? ?"
"The signal characteristics have been confirmed, and the magic net signal from the northern sea area cannot be anything else, but the current signal is still very weak, it should be too far away, there is no way to establish communication, and only send and receive short messages representing safety. ," Victoria said, "but according to the current signal enhancement curve, you can barely communicate in about ten minutes."
"Please turn this way at the first time!" Heidi said immediately.
"I'm already doing that."
Ten minutes... Hetty never thought that ten minutes could be so long. She was restless, anxious, expecting joy and confusion, and all emotions were mixed together. She wanted to get up and walk or tidy up her appearance, but she was worried about it. His actions happened to be seen by the ancestors who might be connected at any time, so he had to forcibly suppress it again, maintaining his usual dignified and calm posture and sitting behind the desk. She felt that she had waited in this state for almost forty thousand years, and she thought that the Duchess Victoria in the holographic projection of the magic net terminal next to her must be as difficult to sit and stand as herself - but she was paralyzed on the ice and snow fair day. I'm used to it, I can't see it at this time...
Just as her thoughts began to diverge, a light and shadow suddenly jumped over the magic net terminal on the other side of the desk for transfer - Hetty felt her breathing and heartbeat also jumped - and then, In the severe interference and distortion, some indistinct shadows gradually emerged in the holographic projection, accompanied by bursts of noise-filled sounds.
Although it is still unclear, Heidi can be sure that it is indeed his ancestor! It was indeed Gawain Cecil.
The ancestor seemed to be speaking, but she couldn't hear it clearly. After a while, she saw that the picture became slightly stable and clear, and there were human voices intermittently in those noises, and the voices gradually became coherent. She heard her ancestor calling her name: "Hetty...interference... Can you hear... can you hear it now?"
"Okay, Ancestor!" Hetty said immediately, she didn't notice that she had stood up, "There is still a little disturbance, but I can hear it clearly!"
In just these two sentences, she saw that the sound and picture displayed by the magic net terminal seemed to be a little clearer than before.
Obviously, the ancestors were rapidly approaching the Loren continent - Hetty could almost imagine the sight of the dragon rushing through the air at full speed.
"I can finally hear your voice too," Gawain's voice rang out, "Very good, it seems that these two devices are not broken after some tossing. Hetty, tell me about your Let’s take a look at the current situation, has something happened to Loren Continent recently?”
"How did you know..." Heidi was initially surprised by instinct, but then she realized that she didn't care how the ancestors learned about the drastic changes in the situation on the mainland, but said bluntly, "Ancestor, Typhon disaster Deteriorating, parts of the army got out of control and attacked us - we and Typhon had entered a state of 'war' when we had to fight back."
"Ah?!" Gawain was obviously stunned for a moment - even if there were many interference ripples on the screen, Heidi could be sure that he saw the surprised expression of the ancestor.
To be able to surprise the always majestic and reliable ancestors like this... Maybe I should feel proud?
Hetty laughed at himself with a wry smile, and then had to report the follow-up situation to Gawain: "...After the outbreak of the war, we chose to advance the front to the east. General Philip led the First Army, with the assistance of the Dragoons, Winterwolf has been captured at dawn today—and now our troops have built batteries and bunkers along the Typhon frontier."
"……what?!"
"In addition, the defenders of Winter Wolf Castle, led by their supreme commander Andersa Wendell, voluntarily surrendered, and we ended the battle there more easily than expected..."
"……what!?"
After three "ah"s in a row, Gao Wencai finally recovered a little from his astonishment, his figure became clearer in the holographic projection, and his voice entered Hetty's ears more clearly: "Wait, what happened? It's a big accident, why didn't you use the Mithril Ring to contact me directly?"
Heidi froze for a moment, and subconsciously placed her gaze on the silver-white ring on the table, and then said, "I tried several times, but you haven't received it yet?"
"Have you tried it?" Gawain seemed even more surprised than Heidi, "but I really didn't have any reaction here..."
Hetty: "???"
Is there a problem with your own operation? Or is this Tallond creation that claims to be extremely high-tech really malfunctioning?
A new question popped up in her mind for a while, but before she could speak, Gawain's voice came again: "Anyway, let's ignore the problem of the Mithril Ring, tell me about the current situation - we I'm approaching the North Harbor coastline, and you tell me as briefly and clearly as possible, how much I've missed."
...
The cold wind roared and raged outside the protective barrier, and the endless ocean was swiftly passing under the giant dragon. At the end of the slightly undulating sea water, the outline of the continent could be vaguely seen.
Gawain stood in the middle of Melita's broad back and listened to Heidi's report in a stunned manner.
"Just a long trip..." He couldn't help muttering to himself, "The whole world will be turned upside down after returning."
"Before I set off, I always felt that this trip was going to happen!" Amber kept BB next to him, "You don't believe my intuition, I told you that my intuition is accurate, I suspected this winter a month ago. It's not good, you see, this really happened, or else..."
Miss Half-elf's BB sound was a headache. At this time, Gawain was extremely regretful that there was no wall on Melita's back - there was no way he could slap the noisy amber against the wall.
"Melita," in the end, he forcibly ignored Amber's muttering, turned his head and said loudly to the huge dragon head in front of him, "Just now Hetty said that the Mithril Ring didn't respond, what's going on?"
"I don't know either! Such a situation has never happened before!" Melita's voice was obviously a little nervous, and the surprise in her tone didn't seem to be fake at all, "The Ring of Mithril... that thing is related to Omega. The system is directly connected, and all information sending and receiving is done by Omega himself. Even if a ring is damaged or offline, the relevant damage report will be instantly transmitted to Tallond, and sent to the keeper of the ring and each level. Head - I'm the head of your ring, but I haven't heard anything like that at all."
Gawain frowned: "Omega made a mistake?"
"Omega never makes mistakes!" Melita's voice came from the front, her tone was firm at first, but she soon hesitated, "At least... I have never encountered such a thing since I was born... …”
