Chapter 1026 (1/2)
”Shall I go?”
In the iron window of the floating city of horn castle, the shocked Female Elf Warrior Alexandra almost tried her best to restrain her inner amazement and stared at Lucien in front of her:
”You, you this is... This is to secretly release me?”
Grey pupil paused and seemed to be surprised by the other party's attitude. He nodded a second later.
So Alexandra said the second question she wanted to ask, which was almost nonsense.
”Why?”
”Because I may not be able to fulfill my previous commitments.” the reason is complex, but Lucian explained as simply as possible: ”Lord Loren... Because of something, he has made up his mind to no longer tolerate the capture of the Azores; as his escort, I must carry out all his orders.”
”If you stay here again, the only end is death.”
Hearing the grey pupil boy in front of him say this sentence so coldly, the Female Elf couldn't help shivering.
After all, a glorious death in battle is quite different from being executed by the enemy when there is no resistance.
”But... Let me go, isn't it against your master's order?” the uneasy Alexandra still stared at Lucian's face, hoping to get an answer:
”Besides, this is the strongest fortress of your empire. What can I do to escape?”
These were two questions, and Lucian decided to answer her first and then one.
”The army led by your Majesty the eagle king is now on the glacier wasteland outside the fortress; just a few days ago, they just wiped out the last investigation team of the Empire.” the grey pupil boy said in a deep voice: ”at present, the emperor in the fortress is preparing to go out of the city with my master and another Duke.”
”So tonight the fortress will be very chaotic, and it's your last chance to leave; of course, I'm not saying that you can run easily. Even if you're not found, there are trenches, horse stakes and pits outside the fortress gate... In short, there are countless traps.”
”But at least I kept my promise to set you free after I got the way of samurai.”
Alexandra's expression trembled slightly.
Unexpectedly... This human being, he really kept his promise; She had been prepared that the other party would threaten and lure, and then she would rather die than follow.
The opposite Lucian waited without saying a word, but his face showed a bit of impatience.
After a moment of hesitation, Alexandra raised her head tentatively and asked quietly, ”then... How should you explain to your master?”
”It's very simple, I told him.” the grey pupil replied lightly.
”What, what?!”
Alexandra was completely surprised.
”Yes, I told him it was all arranged by me - you were the bait I put out to attract the elf army in the glacier wasteland.” Lucian shrugged. ”So he agreed, because he and the emperor really need this information right now.”
”I see...”
The stunned Female Elf suddenly became angry: ”so you're not going to let me go, but to use me?! I...”
”Whether you use it depends on what you think.” Lucian interrupted her impolitely:
”I will send two demon hunters to follow you; you can try to get rid of them or kill them - although I don't think you can do the latter for the time being.”
”But in any case, this is an opportunity. Whether you try or not... I've untied your shackles, and I won't close the door; if you want to go... Only tonight.”
With that, the grey pupil turned and left, and the shackles and the key to the iron window were thrown aside.
Only Alexandra herself was left in the cell, staring blankly at the broken boundary mountain rising into the clouds outside the iron window, as well as the twinkling and free stars in the sky.
Do you want to?
This must be a trap. They want to use themselves to find clues about his Majesty's army; But it is an opportunity anyway; If you don't leave after tonight, you won't be of any use to them.
Then... You're dead.
Death... Or the fear that life and death are controlled by others without resistance makes Alexandra fall into a huge contradiction.
But if you survive, it should be more beneficial to your Majesty the eagle king... Right?
At this moment, the chief adjutant of the supervision court brightened up, as if he thought of the key to the problem.
Yes, I have a lot of information about the Imperial Army - the enemy's strength, the next deployment, the fortress's defense system, and their private plans... These should be very useful to your majesty.
I don't want to escape in order to save my life. I want to be loyal to his Majesty the eagle king and the great righteousness of the life and death of the Azores!
Taking a deep breath, Alexandra struggled to get up and hurriedly picked up the cell key on the ground.
At this moment, Alexandra had no more fear in her heart; At this moment, there was only one thing left in her mind.
Find your Majesty the eagle king and let your majesty know all the information you have collected, as well as the process and results of the battle of eboden!
…………………………
”Did you succeed?”
On the top of the quiet floating city tower, Dalton kand stared at the gray pupil boy who came up from under the stairs and asked expressionless.
”She had just climbed over the wall of duanjieshan fortress a minute ago, and now she is probably trying to get around those ditches and pits?”
Lucian opened his mouth and replied, ”I have sent four demon hunters to follow - two bright and two dark. I won't lose them.”
”What about intelligence?”
”What should be revealed has been revealed - there is no problem with the system layout of the fortress, the number of troops and the next deployment.”
”Told her?”
”Yes, but I only told her that two people would follow.”
”Will you be found?”
”If you cooperate well, you won't; if there is an accident, there are remedies.”
”Confirmed?”
”It has been checked twice, all in accordance with the original plan.
