The Devil’s Cage Chapter 52: secret path
The carriage stopped after a dirt slope.
When Kieran jumped off the carriage with its own item, it was already the last moment that Dawn was about to pass, and the sky was bright immediately.
At the height of Lightning Fortress, even if it is not Divine Archer, you only need to have a sharp eye to see clearly far away.
Not to mention, most of the grassland intruder are Divine Archer.
As long as the leader’s general is not a fool, he knows how to use his advantage.
So, Kieran and Bosco are very careful.
"I can only send you here!"
"Wish you a safe return!"
Bosco rarely spoke in a serious tone.
"Uh!"
"Help me say goodbye to Mary, although I wanted to say it myself, but..."
Kieran shrugged and did not continue.
Before, Kieran wanted to say goodbye to Mary in person, but the girl’s expression made Kieran at a loss, and he was already in a carriage when he recovered.
It’s a shame not to speak in person.
But if someone tells, it’s the same.
That's what Kieran thinks.
But he did not anticipate Bosco's reaction.
"His Royal Highness, please speak for yourself...︽..."
"This farewell is really too heavy, please forgive me for not conveying it!"
Bosco finished boarding the carriage and left.
The Kieran raised an eyebrow as it looked at the carriage that blended into the darkness.
He knew what Bosco misunderstood, but he had no chance to explain.
He couldn't stop the Bosco who was leaving.
Because that would also expose him.
Shaking his head, Kieran left these trivial things overseas and began to concentrate on Lightning Fortress in the distance.
The secret path is located between the mountain walls on the left side of Lightning Fortress.
Although it is not high, it needs to climb some distance.
More importantly, you need to avoid the sight on Lightning Fortress at all times.
At night, it’s okay to say that it’s covered with darkness. Even if it’s dawn, even Kieran is not sure enough.
Therefore, Kieran is ready to act immediately.
It's just that when he looked at Lightning Fortress, his body was shocked.
He saw two Jinguan on both sides of the avenue!
The body of the defender of Lightning Fortress is piled up. Although the soil has not been tamped yet, it makes people shudder.
Kieran contacted unknown bodies.
But for the first time I saw the appearance of the corpse in Beijing.
After two or three seconds, he recovered.
"Show off merit, Intimidate enemy?"
Kieran whispered to himself.
Undoubtedly, the grassland intruder has been very successful.
Kieran is sure, with the residual morale of Warren Royal Capital Riverdale, if it is possible to come here, it will really become a morale-free, loose-hearted look.
Of course, this is just an almost impossible assumption.
But one of the original plans of Kieran has to be changed.
"Bloodthirsty? No!"
"Not just bloodthirsty, but..."
Kieran has generally swept over Beijing Guan, and the number of corpses is far more than the number he had passed before.
Where did the remaining bodies come from?
Part comes from the battle when the grassland intruder entered Lightning Fortress.
Another part...
Prisoners of war!
Although the road chosen at the time was a hidden trail, Kieran can still see the broken soldiers returning from Lightning Fortress from time to time from the car window.
The number reaches hundreds.
Compared with the number of people stationed in Lightning Fortress, this number is not too much.
Kieran guessed at the time that these soldiers should be captured.
So, he instinctively thought of creating chaos, releasing all captives, and causing trouble for the grassland intruder.
However, it seems that he still underestimated the determination of the grassland intruder.
Or.........
He overestimated the number of grasslands intruder.
Despite the lack of time, King James VIII gave a more detailed introduction to the prairie people.
With tribes as a collective, slavery prevails and slaves are used as currency. In some tribes, slaves are more valuable than gold.
The biggest source of slaves is war.
Simply put, prisoners of war generally act as slaves. Killing slaves who can represent money means destroying their own property.
When will your property be destroyed?
When you can’t really own these properties, it’s a last resort.
There are very few circumstances that can cause the intruder of the grasslands that occupied Lightning Fortress to have a last resort.
The number of people is the most likely.
"There are not enough people to guard the prisoners of war, so kill them all?"
Kieran acted quickly with heart's guess.
As for behaviors on prairie people?
He has no more comments.
After all, the grassland and Warren are the hostile parties, and it is not an exaggeration to use any method for the war between the two countries.
The prairie slaughtered the prisoners of war at this moment and made Jinguan deter Warren.
When Warren used to be formidable, He Zeng did not return tens of thousands of cattle and sheep.
This is itself a relationship of opposite and non-stop conversion, and only one of the two parties will completely stop before it will stop.
Kieran does not know when one of the two parties will be completely destroyed.
But he knows that his current position cannot make Warren perish.
At least, not now.
Oh!
Carrying a brand new backpack full of Warren style, Kieran made a leap and jumped to the left side of Lightning Fortress with a slight breaking sound.
As noted on the drawing, Kieran did not take much time to find the entrance.
Under a dead tree.
Pulling the dirt over, the secret path made of a rock appeared in front of you.
Kieran stood still on the side, and waited until the dirty air in secret path dissipated before slowly entering it.
Darkness does not prevent Kieran’s vision.
He can clearly see that the entire secret path movement is straight ahead, and when he reaches the end, he has a step up.
The steps are not the usual ones.
It’s more like a ladder made of stone, which needs people and feet to climb up.
The height is about twenty meters.
Kieran carrying backpack on his back, climbing with both hands, flexible like a monkey, quickly came to the top.
However, Kieran didn't immediately push the hidden door at the beginning to go out, but listened with his ears.
Although according to King James VIII, the end of secret path should be a warehouse that stores some military supplies item.
But that was many years ago.
It is difficult to ensure that the layout inside has not changed since times have passed.
Not to mention, after the prairie people occupied, who knew what the other party would do here.
Attentive listening for a few seconds~IndoMTL.com~ No sound is heard in the ear.
Kieran takes a deep breath and puts a palm on the dark door, pushing it hard.
Suddenly, a footstep came.
tà tà tà!
Stable and powerful, simultaneously appeared on the top of Kieran's head.
ps first even more~
This chapter is timed, because last night I couldn’t sleep, and the decadence just got up and coded...
Although trying to adjust the circadian clock, but after being disrupted again, I found that my heart was going to be black and white!
Good intentions... (to be continued.)
