Heart of Empire Chapter 124: There is a dragon
The sudden disappearance of Dane's team really frightened Malone for a while. Enemies that disappear from sight are far more terrifying than enemies that can be locked in.
Especially when he also received news that there seemed to be a large number of mercenaries and fighters gathering in Morneau's lair, White Wolf Castle, and Morneo's power was abnormally mobilized. The sense of fear is even deeper.
He was afraid that Morno's troop mobilization and Dane's sudden disappearance were aimed at him. If he was not careful, his Malone Manor couldn't withstand the violent attack of Mornogardine's total of three or four thousand people!
So, he also hastily gathered the scattered troops in his oasis manor, and waited in full force, making a posture of guarding against death, for fear that he would really be attacked. He even sent several envoys to Cinderella in the north in a few days, fearing that if he couldn't stand it anymore, Governor Kangli would support him.
In this way, Ma Long guarded against death and feared for a week, but nothing happened to Mao.
And when he cautiously protruded his head out of the tortoise's shell a little suspiciously and began to remember, when he tried his best to figure out what happened, Morno and the three mercenaries The Eastern Expedition team formed by the regiment has been climbing mountains and mountains for three days in the Duanlongfeng mountain area in the southern section of the Central Mountain Range.
A week ago, the reason why Dane and his five hundred people disappeared was, of course, because he took advantage of the ranger team knocking out Malone's eyes, and quickly launched a quick march to White Wolf Fort. Assembled with the army.
When Dane led the team to arrive, the others had basically completed their assembly. Morno's army had already completed its mobilization, and at the same time, the other two regiments, Pure Sword and Smil, also arrived at White Wolf Castle one day earlier than Dane.
However, although Dane was the last one to arrive, when he arrived, it was General Morno who came out to greet him with several generals under him, which greatly gave him face. Although in this way, the head of the Smir mercenary group, the wild elf Jere, and several captains under Morno, became more dissatisfied with Dane, but Dane still dismissed it very much.
Dissatisfied? Drive me away if you have the ability!
Of course those guys have no such skills.
After the army that was going to join the Eastern Expedition this time basically completed the gathering of all members, they did not delay for a moment. Start to head north at the fastest speed.
Heading north, this direction makes many people wonder. Beast Blood Fortress is to the east, the hometown of orcs, and the Eastern Wasteland is also to the east. Going north? Isn't that going to run into the Central Mountain Range?
As if he knew the worries in people's minds, Morno held an impromptu meeting during a short rest at noon on the first day after the rapid march began. There was no discussion in this meeting. Morneau's original intention was to issue the goal of the march.
However, when people knew that the goal at this stage was to rush to Broken Dragon Peak, almost everyone was blown away.
The first one to jump out was Jieer. This guy who has always regarded keeping a low profile and not being the first bird as his first purpose in life couldn't help it at this time. He didn't even care about General Morno's face, and asked on the spot: "Go to Broken Dragon Peak? Are you planning to bypass the defense line of Beast Blood Castle from Broken Dragon Peak and turn into the Eastern Wasteland? Who came up with such a bad idea?"
Upon hearing this, Morno's face became a little ugly. Especially when he was not the only one who said that, but many people below were shocked by the goal Morno just said and complained, his face became even worse.
He did not speak, but looked at Dane.
As the leader of the entire army, Morno's every move will of course attract everyone's attention.
Therefore, when Morneau's obvious hints of eyes were revealed, Dane naturally became the target of public criticism.
The voices of doubt in the arena gradually quieted down, but this does not mean that the pressure Dane needs to face becomes less. On the contrary, when everyone looks at him with doubts and distrust Sometimes, the invisible pressure is greater than the verbal one.
Sighing softly in his heart, Dane took a step forward, puffed up his chest, and said, "I suggested it."
Everyone remained silent, but the doubts in their eyes became more serious.
Dane said: "I know that Broken Dragon Peak is an insurmountable moat in your eyes, and it is said that there are real dragons on that mountain. However, I hope you can believe I, I will definitely lead everyone over that mountain, reach the eastern wilderness with the fastest speed, the least loss, and the lowest risk, and go straight to the heart of the orcs!"
He said this sonorously and forcefully, but the people present were all veterans, and it was impossible for Dane to trust him because of what he said~IndoMTL.com~.
Let alone him, unless General Morno said such words himself, no one can make others obey him with just one word at this time.
After all, climbing that mountain is fatal.
Jere said: "Dane, maybe you don't know, but I want to remind you. I have been active on that mountain for a while, believe me, you don't want to know what's on the mountain."
Dane chuckled lightly and said, "I know, there really is a dragon on Broken Dragon Peak. It's an adult green dragon named Ignir. Moreover, it's not just alone. Under his control, he still has a whole dragon guard whose number will not be less than two hundred."
"Since you know, why bring us up there? Yes, we have more than 3,000 people. Maybe we can really kill the green dragon, but how many people do we have to die? That's what you said Safe and sound? The risk is the lowest?"
After hearing this, everyone was in an uproar. There are dragons in Broken Dragon Peak, this is always just a legend. No one had actually seen the green dragon that Dane was talking about, and no one had even seen the dragon guards. However, no one dared not believe Dane's words, especially after Jere confirmed it himself.
In everyone's consciousness, Jieer is a topography expert of the Dragon Peak generation, and he was born in that mountainous area just for this wild elf.
However, in the face of Jieer's questioning, Dane still did not panic. I just heard him say: "What if I have mastered a secret path that can safely pass through Duanlongfeng?"
