Chapter 1319： urgent (2/2)

"When the fire started, all contracts were cancelled."

Morak hesitated to accept the pendant that Camilla handed over. He recalled the ancient legend, the **** battle between the ancestors of the orcs and another ruling race on this land, and the forest guards in the red jade forest. The origin of the troops It is said that in the ancient times, it was not the orcs who dominated this land, but another more powerful race. It is said that that powerful race eventually declined and was overthrown and replaced by their original slaves. It is said that the last of them was driven into the forest. , In order to survive, willing to sign a thousand-year contract with the living world, to become an eternal guard of the dense forest, can not leave the army...

Foreigners who don’t know the truth and those who have little knowledge of the mountains and forests can’t distinguish the boundaries between legend and real history, and even invert some of the details in the legend, but the mountain warriors and champion warriors must be familiar with them while maintaining their personal courage. History, Morakot knows that there are evidences behind those ancient legends, and the "souls" guarding the red jade forest naturally exist.

Those souls have longed for freedom for a whole thousand years... but is it really good to release them now? What's more, at the cost of the entire red jade forest...

Noting the old orc’s hesitation, Camilla was not surprised. She just shook her head slightly and pointed her finger in the direction of the Gondor Wasteland: "Do you know where that is?"

Morak was a little unsure, so: "Of course I know, it's Gondor Wasteland."

"No, that will be our future if we continue to hesitate like this," Camilla said coldly, "Without the forest rangers, we can rebuild a new set of order, lose the red jade forest, we can plant Under the new forest, even if we lose the Red Jade City, we still have the opportunity to make a comeback, but if we just retreat and retreat like this and face an indecisive corps that vows to destroy us, then this land can remain There is only a piece of wasteland corroded by chaotic magic energy. Morakot, burn down the red jade forest, and burn the main force of the deformed body in it. Even if it is only temporary, we will delay the corruption of this land. A little bit, but just buy more time..."

She said there was a sudden pause for a few seconds, but quickly continued: "We are not alone, Morakot, our allies may really only need us to help them delay a day or two."

The hesitation in Morak’s eyes finally faded. He met Camilla’s gaze, and the war patterns around his face and neck seemed to float in the darkness with a **** gleam: "I understand, everything is as you wished. ."

Camilla nodded lightly, as if suddenly letting go of her burden, she couldn't help but exhale for a long time, and then looked to the north in the dark defense line: "I don't know what's going on in Mosswood...Do they know The situation on our side..."

"The Cecilians are more prepared for this war than we are. As long as their defenses remain standing, those monsters will not be able to attack the moss woods," Morak said. "But now we have lost contact with the northern region and sent them out. The whereabouts of several waves of messengers are also unknown, and even the communication with Helm City has been cut off. It is indeed difficult to pass the information over... I only hope that Wenna can make accurate and timely judgments."

"Wenna is a keen person, she should know what to do at this time," Camilla said. "What we have to do now is to persevere as much as possible."

Morakot nodded in the darkness, and gently twitched his nose. Riding on the cold mountain breeze in the winter night, the filthy breath became strong again.

…

In the southern part of the mossy woods, on the small triangular plain leading to the central area of ​​Ogure, the flag of the Cecil Empire is flying over a temporary camp, and well-equipped expeditionary soldiers are preparing vehicles and supplies for the communication in the south. The severed mountains and ridges.

But before the ground troops can set off, the most basic investigation work must be completed.

Accompanied by a low buzzing sound, two Dragoon fighters soared into the air from the back of the camp, breaking the tranquility of the sky in the ambiguous night, and flew over the mountain pass like two swift ghosts and flew towards the distant mountains and forests.

And in the command post on the ground, the Grand Duke of the West and one of the three major governors of the Empire stood facing the tactical table, listening to the creaking interference noise coming from the communication equipment. , And what was projected over the Mowang terminal was a picture that was seriously distorted to the point of being indistinguishable.

"We still can't reach the two hub stations set up in Ancestral Peak and Helm City. Those are the most powerful transceiver stations in Ogure." The technical sergeant in charge of the communication equipment shook his head, with a worried expression on his face. The ground said to the chief consul who was on the front line, "In addition, the few secondary forwarding stations closest to here do not have any feedback signals. Will they have already..."

"Don't scare yourself," Baldwin shook his head with a sullen expression. "Even if those monsters drive in unimpeded, it will take a lot of time for them to climb the border mountains east of Ogure, let alone attack now. Entering Helm is just interference. Keep calling. Once the interference diminishes, maybe we can receive the signal."

"Yes, sir."

Baldwin Franklin nodded, and then the guard's announcement came from the door of the barracks: "Ms. Wenna, the leader of the gray elves, is here."

Baldwin was taken aback for a moment and nodded immediately: "Please come in."

The door of the barracks was opened, and a lady who was petite as a child walked into the room. She saw the Grand Archon standing at the tactical table, with a somewhat stunned expression on her face.

"Grand Duke Baldwin... I didn't expect you to come in person."

"The situation is tight. Your Majesty ordered me to come and support me personally. I brought the mobile corps of Cecil's Western Military District," Baldwin nodded and said, "In addition, there is another support army and they will arrive soon."
