Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

Chapter 373 The Situation in the Imperial Capital (2)

Orlando looked at this civilian dressed up and suddenly asked, "You are Donald? What happened to Sunrise City?"

Donald took a few breaths, adjusted his breathing, and said, "Master Luke, General Orlando, six days ago, Sun... Sunrise City was attacked by orcs, and the lord died on the spot. I was ordered to break through and leave. At that time, the orcs had already entered the dock area!"

"Ah!" This sudden news shocked both Luke and Orlando. Luke stood up with a sigh of relief, while Orlando took a deep breath, tried to keep himself calm, and then asked: "Orc The number of troops? Types of arms? Specific details, the more detailed the better!"

When asked about the situation at the time, Donald looked terrified. Even if six days have passed, the shock of the orc's rampant chariot still did not diminish. Donald trembled and recalled the scene at that time. .

The comrades around him were crushed by the fast-moving tank and turned into bloody mud. Even if they dodge the attack from the front, they could not escape the sharp blades on the side of the tank. The ears were those intercepted by the blades of the tank. The painful and wailing voices of his comrades-in-arms, splashes of blood in front of them.

A human warrior struggling to pounce on the orc chariot from a height, but his actions were in vain. Before the human warrior's body fell on the chariot, he was split by an orc on the chariot with a huge tomahawk. , The blood dyed the earth red, and then flowed into the blue sea, and the city of Sunrise was completely shrouded in blood red.

Donald ran desperately with several subordinates. Hundreds of orcs riding on wolves were chasing them behind. Although these orcs could not shoot arrows, they could throw spears more powerfully within tens of meters. He would definitely die, but he could be stabbed by a short spear, and even an ordinary round shield would not be able to stop it.

Perhaps the god of luck took care of Donald, he finally got rid of the chase of the orc wolf cavalry, but he was left alone.Donald traveled day and night and finally arrived at the imperial capital.

After listening to Donald’s narration, Orlando saluted him with a knightly salute and said: "Thank you for your hard work. Let’s take a rest now. I have all of you!" Donald felt relaxed and collapsed after hearing these words. Orlando hurriedly stepped forward to support him and found that Donald was asleep.

Orlando handed Donald to the two royal guards and motioned to them to help Donald to rest. Then Orlando found a map, frowning and calculating the route and time of the orcs. After all, the news from Donald was six days ago. Thing.

Luke sat in a chair beside him, looking at Orlando, but an idea suddenly appeared in his mind.Luke was taken aback by his thoughts, his body trembled a little, but then Luke controlled his every move and tried his best to behave as if nothing had happened, but in Luke's mind, it began to surround This idea made a simple plan.

Soon, Luke worked out a complete plan. He thought about the whole plan from beginning to end, and found that there was no big problem, and he could implement it immediately.Orlando didn't notice what Luke was thinking now. He faced the map carefully and calculated for a long time. There is not much time for his own side. If the orcs go south without taking a rest, they should have entered the area of ​​Fernando City at this moment. Within, measures must be taken.

Thinking of this, Orlando said decisively: "Luke, there is no time, you must act now!"

Luke also knows that the time is urgent, but he put on a look that has nothing to do with me, and said lightly: "I am just a deposed civilian now, but I don't have the guts to issue these orders, you can figure it out!"

Orlando sternly said: "Now is not the time to shirk responsibility, Luke, according to the laws of the Empire, if His Majesty the King is unable to handle state affairs for some special reason, then I, as the head of the Royal Knights and the highest military officer in the capital, have the right to order entry. In a state of emergency, let's get over the difficulties before you!"

Luke wanted these words from Orlando. He nodded and said, "I understand, I will fully support you!"

"Okay!" Orlando said nonchalantly: "Immediately summon officials above the chief of the empire and officers above the military commander level to gather in the Golden Chamber. An emergency meeting will be held an hour later to conduct wartime mobilization. Those who fail to get will be removed from office. Lu K, you are responsible for the notice of the official, I will inform the officer!"

"Well, most of the officials are in the Royal Chamber anyway, but you have to work a little harder."

Orlando nodded, with a serious expression on his face, opened the door and strode out.Luke smiled. Orlando's departure just allowed him to carry out the plan he had just envisaged. With the mind of those officials, Luke was more than 90% sure of his plan.

With a frustrated expression on his face, Ryan shook his head helplessly.He has been searching in the imperial capital for two full days, but it is a pity that Bart didn’t explain the location of the tailor’s shop in detail before. He only knew that it was in the commercial area, and there were at least 20 shops that fit Bart’s description. For a period of time, the imperial capital was in chaos, and many shops were not opened at all, which made Ryan exhausted his thoughts.

Farasi comforted and said, "Ryan, if it doesn't work, I will continue to come tomorrow. It's getting late now. It's better to go back long ago."

Ryan shook his head slightly and said, "Let's look for it again, there are still a few stores ahead."

Ellendor patted Ryan on the shoulder and said, "Well, let's stay with you. Bart is not just your friend."

"Ryan, if you want me to say, it's better to go back first." Flanner said suddenly: "With the strength of the four of us, it is too difficult to find someone in this city with hundreds of thousands of inhabitants. , I have a good way."

"Ah, do you have a way? Don't tell me earlier!" Ryan was overjoyed and grabbed Flanner's hand and shook it non-stop: "Say it, say it!"

Flanner said: "Personal power is very small, but the power of tens of thousands of people together is not the same. I remember Faras’ father is Chancellor of the Exchequer Luke, and the head of the Royal Knights is General Orlando, right? They all have a good relationship with you, so why not turn to them for help?"

"You said……"

"As long as they say a word, they can immediately use a lot of people to help us investigate. For example, find a young girl working in a tailor's shop, according to the management method of Freedom Paradise, these tailor's shops will have records, we only need to take After arriving at these records, arranging the number of people to come to each house to check carefully, and to find a similar girl and then go there in person. Isn’t it better than just burying your head in search?"

"That's right!" Faras clapped her hands and said, "That's it, Ryan, let's go back. I will find my father at night. He will definitely help with this. I have to pester him to agree."

Ryan looked at the excitement on Falash’s face, and there was a tenderness in his heart. Falash was no better than herself. She had already lost her strength when she was in Thor Fortress. She has not fully recovered her magic power yet, but even In this way, Falasi did not say anything, silently accompany him to find Bart's fiancée. What regrets can he get such a girl with for life?

Ryan suddenly stretched out his hand and held Farasi's small hand tightly. The latter blushed and said shyly, "I hate it, everyone is looking at us."

"What are you afraid of!" Flanner interrupted and said, "Alan, you block that side, I block this side, you two continue, don't worry, no one can see it!"

"I hate it!" Falas broke free of Ryan's hand, turned around shyly, and Ryan also smirked, not knowing what to say.Xiao Bai was turning around Flanner, shaking his tail, wondering why Ryan's face was flushed, but no one paid any attention to it.

There was a rush of people, and a large group of people squeezed over, and Allend lightly patted Ryan, who immediately awoke and pulled Farasi to the nearby shop.Elendo and Flanner followed closely, walked into the shop, avoiding the crowds.

Four people stood at the door of the shop and looked outside. They found that these people were wearing civilian costumes. Basically everyone carried a package on their back. And these people were male, female, old and young, and they looked like a family. A family escaped.

Ryan and Ellendor looked at each other and saw doubts in each other's eyes. Ryan was about to ask Flanner, but he heard a man say: "Hey, these people outside the city are hiding in. If this continues, even the central square will not fit."

The four people turned their heads together and saw a man about forty years old standing beside them with a worried look on his face.Ryan asked, "Excuse me, what's the matter with these people?" The man said, "I heard that the Thor Fortress in the north was breached, so the orcs will come here sooner or later. These people live on farms and ranches outside the city. Or the people of the manor, their master fled into the city, and they followed in."

"Ah, isn't the empire yet to mobilize in wartime? It should be deployed by the army at this time!" Falash is familiar with the law in this area, and asked, "Why is it so messy, what about the farm outside the city? Is it thrown to the orcs?"

"Huh! Mobilization during the war?" The man sneered and said, "The group of officials are arguing about who will be the king. They can't remember that there are millions of civilians outside the city, not to mention what food to consider. Anyway, the situation is critical, they can naturally use the teleportation magic circle to escape to Sea Breeze City. When they get there, they still live a leisurely life?"

"So it's like that, I understand." Ryan nodded and said, "May I ask you who?"

The man's face changed slightly, but after looking up and down Ryan and the others, he felt that Ryan and the others were not like spies, so they bluntly told each other: "My name is Larry, and I am the owner of this antique shop."
