The Amber Sword

Chapter 262 Act 22 Expansion (III)

Little by little late, the sky's evening glow radiated through half the sky, and the wire-like rolled clouds burned like fire, from the bright gold color on the horizon to the blue purple on the top of the head and then gradually turned dark blue, to the easternmost side into a dull shadow.

Such clouds seemed to herald the following days of beautiful weather, so that nature calmed down, birds roared in the mountain forests, and the whole forest became much quieter at sunset.

Standing next to Brando, Shea's eyes reflected a faint twilight, and she looked in the direction of the Grahar Mountains - the Karanga Mountains stretching north around the ‘root' of the Baron Cold Cedar collar, and also the very easternmost edge of the blade in the Black Forest outside of Eruin's southern civilization. Legend has it that this mountain is the source of the land's wealth, with countless treasures buried beneath it, such as silver —— in just a few days, she has heard rumors about this huge silver vein, which, although only a small fraction of it is in Tonigal, is enough to make that grudin squander.

But this mountain, which seemed sacred and silent to the locals, now seemed like a huge beast hidden in her eyes, hiding an unknown secret under the shadow of the forest, even though the tall rock revealed a ray of gold in the reflection of the crown in the sun.

The sawmill in the forest is like a big spot in a golden red crown after autumn, and there don't seem to be many cavemen down the hill. This is not the case, however, as the inhabitants of Jorgendigan dug up the entire mountain body, and there could be large and small entrances to and exits from the tunnels in the cracks beneath those rocks.

To enter the valley, it is difficult to avoid passing through these areas, which are closely monitored by cavemen.

The red-haired girl turned back, hours had passed since Brando confirmed the plan, but they had done nothing but walk a few hundred feet along the valley - in fact, it was under her constant urging that the young lord reluctantly moved his position.

Stay here for a few hours so still, but Brando doesn't explain why, he often answers with a smile.

“This guy. ”

The red-haired girl had no reaction on her face, but turned around and gently kicked the root of the black loose plate, thinking that if the plan had been confirmed, what were you waiting for? I don't care what kind of 'snatch the king first’ is, I don't care if it's an assassination. In short, when are we going to wait...

She frowned and didn't like the feeling of wasting time.

She turns around and sees the underground caves in the forest below, one after the other, coming out of the surface, and this is the second one, and the first one she's seen has gone into the forest: “Are they going to rendezvous first, or are they going straight to the horseshoe sawmill? ”

There are thousands of cavemen in front of them. If they go straight to the horseshoe sawmill, I'm afraid in time, they'll be ahead of schedule. Can those mercenaries really support them through the middle of the night?

She's suspicious.

“I don't know." Brando replied concisely.

He really doesn't know. He's not a military genius. He just knows more about the habits of cavemen. He doesn't really know how to decide.

“So, Lord, the sun is about to set. Didn't you begin to say wait for the evening? ”

Brando was shocked: “Did I say something like this? ”

“Of course, you said then...”

“Oh," Brando interrupted her, "that's because you were tired of waiting, relaxing. ”

The red-haired girl stared at him with her amber eyes and could not bear to reveal her snow-white tiger teeth even if she had a better temper.

“I'm sorry.” Brando smiled.

Sy shuts up and turns around —— after all, Brando is a lord, she sees herself as a subordinate, and her subordinates certainly cannot question what the lord means. So while in doubt, you can only keep it in mind.

It's just that Brando mostly explains her thoughts to herself, and today it just seems a little unusual to her.

But Brando didn't want to, he couldn't. He smiled and sidelined Rochar's market in the space he had built, and at 6 o'clock wealth was channelled into all his resources, and his wealth had risen to 98 after three days of squandering that night.

But compared to what has already been consumed, this reply to the water truck salary still makes him uncomfortable with some convulsions.

“Are you going to go down to the dungeon to find each other's chiefs?” He thought about it and replied, “I'm afraid the caveman tunnels have dug up the mountain, and if we go in, we're not going to find each other next year. ”

“But we can't just wait.” Sy complained.

“Rest assured, this is just a small clan, with around 3,000 tribal chiefs often being witch doctors.” Brando replied, "To deal with the official wizard of mankind, he has to do it himself. ”

“How long will that take? ”

“Depends on how cautious they are.” Brando replied, "Not more than a short time after the moon rises. ”

“Can you keep the cavemen out for so long?” Sy couldn't help asking.

“I believe Antina,” Brando raised his head: “I've given her the solution, and the rest depends on whether the mercenaries are really willing to stand with us. But if not, they also have a way of protecting themselves - but in fact, it doesn't matter if they don't give up the horseshoe mill, and this little conflict has already been won in the afternoon battle. ”

“What do you mean? ”

“Watch.” Brando smiled a little: “I want more than just victory. ”

……

The moon soon ascended into the sky.

There seemed to be a silent smell in the air of the horseshoe logging yard under the night, but it was no more than an experienced mercenary, and Yuta had acutely smelled the unusual smell hidden in the wind as she patrolled the wooden walls.

The scourge of the cavemen may have arrived.

She raised her hand consciously under her eyebrows and inserted her fingers into the long red hair behind her right ear, brushing it in the direction of the gradually cooling wind under the night. Then his left hand whispered to the bottom, calling in some mercenaries to scout the forest.

But her actions clearly caught the attention of the rest of the camp, and Rose and Liquor Mercenary Corps leader Kronsia looked up at this side and turned back silently, carrying one hand to continue to silently monitor his men digging a ditch in the camp - not a trench, but a preparatory measure to prevent cavemen from raiding underground.

As for Vern, the bustling leader, he was equally silent and made a gesture to climb his own man on the wooden wall.

The mercenaries acted in an orderly and experienced manner, which relieved Antina, who was patrolling the camp. After a lap at the roundabout, Noble Gold walked up the wooden wall with his skirt, accompanied by two Wild Elf sisters.

She first looked at Utah standing under the moon.

“Find anything?” Antitina asked.

Utah turned around, not surprised to see that it was the lady, but didn't turn her head with a cold: “There's something in the forest, maybe a caveman, or some other beast, and I've let people see it. ”

“Caveman?” Antittina was a little surprised, but it didn't show: “So fast? ”

“Maybe.” The head of the female mercenary group stressed.

“So what happens?” The nobleman Kim took a gentle breath and calmed himself down and asked: “Does this mean that the cavemen are moving quickly, Captain Utah? And can you tell how fast they react? And coordination between the military?” Although she learned a lot about journalism, it took a while to follow Brando before she felt shallow on the paper, and in front of these skilled mercenaries, the mutual validation of experience and knowledge was often beneficial, so Antitina looked at Utah and asked in a vain manner.

Yuta also looked at her and for the first time found the little girl not so annoying. Although the younger age was a little more thoughtful, she saw more descendants of the so-called aristocracy and did not find it strange to accept them.

“Thousands of changes on the battlefield, very little definitive information,” the female mercenary leader shook her head, red hair swayed like a flame, “it could be the caveman who stayed behind to watch, or it could be the scourge that came back. If it was the former possibility that the combat skills of the other party were high, I would not be willing to get involved with such a guy more if possible; but the latter means that the overall response and coordination skills of the other party are superior, so the battle in the next few days is expected to be hard...”

And at least it says, "Yuta adds:" Reprisal ability to cross forests in such a short period of time and individual qualities are not ordinary. ”

“What kind do you think, Captain Utah? ”

“Experience tells me," replied the head of the female mercenary group, "I prefer the latter. ”

“Experience? ”

“Experience is important, Miss Antitina, especially when you are unsure of something, and experience is like a more reliable intuition than your knowledge -” Utah replied, licking her lips and looking forward, shocking a bird in the forest, indicating that the mercenaries have handled the cavemen and are expelling each other. She squinted her eyes: "It seems my guess is correct, and your lord is no ordinary man. ”

“Why?” Antitina turned around.

“When this time comes, it means that the big army is close," replied Utah, "but the time to attack is delayed, and the really intense battle lasts until the second half of the night, that little guy... Oh, sorry! Lord seems to know a lot about these underground guys. ”

“He knows more than that.” Antitina looked at the moon and replied in the shadows.

“Oh?” (to be continued, please go to www.qidian.com for more chapters, support authors, support authentic reading!)
