Chapter 862

Chapter 862

As the evening approached, Todd and the Red Wolf returned to the thatched cottage to settle down. Rogers saw that their faces were not very good-looking, and the red wolf's eyes were still fluttering, obviously frightened. Rogers was very curious about what happened to these two guys. Unfortunately, his Assyrian language was not good, so he closed his mouth and silently took the stolen food and clothes from the red wolf. Horned lizard larvae in the cage.

Commander Todd set a rule for the three-person squad: in the main Assyrian city, you can pretend to be dumb, but you must not use human lingua franca!

Human language itself will bring huge risks to the investigation team. Rogers is a good child who obeys the rules. Todd makes him pretend to be dumb, and he never speaks. In case he missed his mouth, Todd would not punish him, but the lives of the two Assyrian female slaves would not be saved.

Rogers, who was born as a mountain hunter, is not a bad guy, he just doesn't want others to die because of his mistakes.

Todd's heart is like a rock, except for his allegiance to the noble Randal to prove his nobleness, he has no principles. If two insignificant Assyrian female slaves need to kill, he will naturally kill each other. Before that, he didn’t have to think about how much the Assyrian slave girl could hear, and directly explained to Rogers in Assyrian language: “We just went to the temple pyramid in the upper city and saw a giant snake made of black smoke entrenched. On the temple’s platform, its size was at least twice the size of the swamp giant anaconda, and it swallowed that one’s messenger."

"...Without the messenger, we now meet It's in trouble."

Todd was angry and irritable. Imerson wizard acted without authorization. It’s hard to say whether he let the investigation squad be exposed, but the terrifying snake ate the Toucan messenger, and the contact between the investigation team and Lord Corps Head was broken, and the actions of the two sides could no longer cooperate with each other. .

Rogers is still imagining what a giant snake that is twice the size of the swamp giant anaconda looks like? The giant boa in the Lizard Swamp is 15 to 20 meters long, and the body is thicker than a bucket. The giant snake is twice as big as the swamp giant anaconda, which is a huge monster with a length of more than 30 meters and a thick water tank. If you hang it up, it will almost catch up to the height of Flatlake Town castle.

How could there be such a big snake?

Rogers didn't understand Assyrian, and ignored Todd's description of "black smoke", thinking that the two companions might be dazzled.

The Red Wolf was really frightened. The black smoky snake coiled around the upper platform of the Pagoda of Gold. It raised its head and swallowed black smoke like a monster in a nightmare, bringing his soul It's very stressful. The red wolf is always keen, and it is timid to put it badly. If it weren’t for the mythical three-headed lizard Portanos entrenched deep in his soul, the black smoky snake that suddenly appeared would be difficult for him to overcome. Heart hurt.

If the Red Wolf does not have the cultivation Portanos secret method, his strength will definitely not reach the level of the Silver Tier. Now instead of worrying about the Imerson wizard’s situation, he couldn’t help but said anxiously: “The'messenger' was killed, and that one must be uncomfortable...If something goes wrong over there, what shall we do?"

In fact, Todd could probably guess the details of the smoky giant snake. He has seen the black wolf and porcupine of the animal spirit Witch Doctor summon. Those supernatural creatures like ghosts are also made of black smoke. They can change form between the virtual and the real. Although it is difficult to deal with, but also not beaten to death, at least they Suffering enough damage will turn into black smoke and return to Witch Doctor's body.

However, compared to the power of the black smoky serpent, the black wolf and the porcupine are too small. Correspondingly, the Witch Doctor manipulating the black smoky snake must be a powerful sorcerer, perhaps the Queen Witch Doctor herself.

No matter who the Legendary Great Witch Doctor is, with him guarding the temple, Bertina is likely to be locked in the temple, and the difficulty for Randal's expedition to rescue Bertina has also risen linearly. Todd estimates that the horned lizards placed in the burial pit by Imerson alone are unlikely to defeat the black smoky serpent. It is almost the same for Philip II at the peak period, but it took Imerson more than two years to cultivate Philip II. At the time, the alienated violent bear in his hand was far less powerful than Philip II.

All in all, this is a very important piece of information. On his way back, Todd began to plan two things. One was to obtain more detailed information, including investigating the identity and abilities of the Legendary Witch Doctor, so that Lord Nelson and Mrs. Charlotte could find a way to transfer him out of the city. ; Second, the investigation squad must re-establish a communication channel with Lord Nelson as soon as possible, otherwise the intelligence will not be transmitted in time, and the intelligence investigation will be useless no matter how clear it is.

Todd bent down and stared at the older female slave and said, "Thatch, you can talk now."

The snake-eye female slave moved her lips and said in a weak voice: "I...I don't call it'thatch'."

"From now on, you'll call it'thatch'."

Todd straightened up and looked down at the snake's eye. The female slave, indifferently said: "Do you know that there is a giant snake ghost in the temple? Black smoke composes its body, and its eyes are like burning flames..." The female slave who had just been forcibly changed her name was shocked. After thinking about it seriously, he shook his head and said, "When King Mokmo was alive, I had never heard of the ghost of a giant snake in the temple." Of course, the snake-eye slave girl knew only a little bit. She can know this level of secrets, and Queen Witch Doctor's party members will not allow her to live until now.

Todd turned his head, glanced at the Assyrian girl next to him, and said: "Is she a daughter?"

The appearance of the two female slaves are similar. It is easy to see that they have blood relation. Todd didn't wait for the thatch to answer, grabbing the girl's thin wrist, and cutting one of her fingers with a sharp stone. The red blood beads came out, causing the horned lizard larvae in the cage to agitate.

In the eyes of thatch, the horned lizard larva is a strange horned frog. Its eyes are blood-red, and its skin is covered with scales, much like lizard skin, and there are two rows of sharp frogs in its mouth. The teeth kept scratching and biting the grass cage, trying to get out of it and suck the blood drops on the female slave's fingers. Although this strange horned frog is only as big as a human slap, its bloodthirsty madness makes the grass shudder.

Todd pinched the thatch daughter’s finger, squeezed two drops of blood to feed the horned lizard larvae, and then threw the cage into the corner. He handed a packet of dough and dried meat stolen by the red wolf to the Assyrian girl, and said: "From now on, I will call you a poison frog...your task is to feed a few drops of blood and ten insects every day. Little monster, then exchange food, water and clothes from me. You must remember that you must never let it out of the cage, and don’t feed it more insects and blood."

Nodded Assyrian girls, just He swallowed the food in his hands.

Todd no longer paid attention to her, and turned to Mao Cao and said: "We brought you some clothes back. You are going out the past few days to inquire about the giant snake in the temple. You everyday all You can come back to eat and sleep, but if you reveal our secrets, you can only go to All Souls for a poisonous frog."

These two snake-eyed female slaves can live to this day, and a strong desire to survive is inevitable. Indispensable. And they are familiar with the environment of the main city of Assyria, and they have some connections. The investigative squad wanders around the city like a headless fly, it is better to let the thatch go out to ask for information. Todd did not have a better way. Even if the snake-eyed female slaves would betray them, relying on the dangerous instincts of the Red Wolf and Rogers, they could escape in advance without worrying about being surrounded by the Assyrian nobles.

Todd didn't put all hope on the snake-eye slave girl. In the next few days, he and the red wolf often went out to collect information as much as possible. The tall Rogers stayed behind and was responsible for feeding the cubs of the horned lizards and maintaining their minimum feeding needs. It is hoped that this alienated creature that has received special care can attract the attention of the Imerson wizard, and reconnect with the investigation team through it.

The Snake Eye Slave Thatch will come back every day, but her task of investigating the Smoky Giant Snake has also not made much progress. Until the night of the fifth day, Rogers noticed that the snake-eye slave girl was sneaking up to their thatched hut with a malicious person.

He is a strong Assyrian man, about 30 years old, has passed the peak period of the Assyrian warrior, there is a circle of obvious fat on his stomach, but he is still healthy and should be compared Strict martial skill training. He was very cautious, and he refused to leave 20 meters away from the thatched hut, talking to the female slave thatched whispering.

They speak very softly, but the Red Wolf can hear clearly. It probably means that he refuses to enter the hut and wants the thatch to call out the people in the hut. He is only responsible for leading outsiders. , To meet people who want to meet them.

In front of the Assyrian men, thatch is only obedient and obedient. She walked into the hut in a nervous mood, and was about to explain to the three outsiders how she was being coerced. The Red Wolf caught the Assyrian man outside. He walked around the house first, did not give the other party any chance to react, and instantly subdued him, without even disturbing the snake-eyed slave girl.

The captive's face was painted with oil, and he couldn't see his original face, and his eyes were full of horror and despair. With a determination to sacrifice, he contacted the remnants of the suspected Snake Eye Guard for his master. If this is a trap set by a vicious queen, he would immediately kill himself with his fangs, but his chin was directly removed by the opponent, and he could not commit suicide. The opponent only pressed his back with one hand and pushed him towards Go ahead. No matter how hard he struggles or resists, it won't work. He is like a puppet, he can't even turn his head back, he can only walk into the narrow and dark hut step by step.

Todd coldly looked at the prisoner captured by the Red Wolf, took out a wooden sculpture and shook it in front of him, saying: "I don't want to know who you are, but you should know what I want to know. ...Tell me the answer, I will let you go, if you don't know, I will kill you immediately."

With a crisp sound of "ka-cha", the red wolf connected the captive's mandible. The Assyrian man moved his chin first, and said uncertainly, "You are from the Sinu family? Sinu...didn't he go out to hunt slaves and then disappeared?"

Todd condensed There was an angry look in his eyes, and fools could feel his murderous intention. The Assyrian man hurriedly said: "Don't do it, I am..."

Todd grabbed his neck and made the cervical vertebrae make an overwhelming noise, his eyes calmly said: "Just talk about me Interesting content...This is your last chance, do you understand?"

Red Wolf and Todd spent a long time in the Mercury Organization and received rigorous training from the old spy. They know well that time is the most precious thing in investigating the current situation of the squad. The prisoner’s identity, background, origin and purpose are not important, because there is no condition to verify these conditions. Todd only cared about the black smoky snake's intelligence. He planned to kill all the slave girls and the captives. No matter whether the captives revealed the intelligence or not, Todd eventually changed his mind.

The Assyrian male told Todd and the others that the black smoky snake in the temple is the Guardian Spirit of Queen Witch Doctor and is one of the four Guardian Spirits. The name of the snake spirit is "sausage", the name of the bear spirit is "sugar bowl", the name of the wolf spirit is "black bread", and the name of the eagle spirit is "roasted chicken legs".

Todd almost didn't control his expression at the time. The names of the four Guardian Spirits are weird and ridiculous. The key is the pronunciation of the vocabulary of the lingua franca.

There is no doubt that the four Guardian Spirits are not the Guardian Spirit of Queen Witch Doctor, but the Guardian Spirit of Bertina.

The captive did not know this, and mistakenly thought that the four Guardian Spirit belonged to Queen Harinadak. He also revealed that only Queen Witch Doctor can enter the main room of the temple. Without the Queen's permission, other Witch Doctors will be blocked by the four Guardian Spirits. The queen once hid her uncle Witch Doctor Tumen in the main room of the temple to prevent him from being besieged by other ancestor spirit Witch Doctor.

Assyrian men have repeatedly claimed to be the servants of the old king Mokmo, and are currently doing slave business in the slave bazaar. Todd refused to let him express his intentions at all, and drove him out along with the two snake-eyed female slaves.

After the slave dealer and the snake-eye slave girl left, Todd and the others immediately packed up, gave up the thatched hut, and moved to other footholds.

These days, through martial power and stolen materials, they have developed some outside eyes and ears among the Assyrian refugees, and they have also prepared several footholds.

Three people came to another thatched house. The Red Wolf took out food and copper bead currency to distribute it to the refugees living in it, and let them spend the night elsewhere. These people have no ability to steal things, and rely on the money provided by the red wolf to get a full meal. They knew that the Red Wolf was going to deal with the stolen goods, and they were happy to provide cover for the thief leader.

Todd did not choose to kill the snake-eye female slave and the slave dealer. This may cause some troubles, or it may bring unexpected opportunities. Reconnaissance squad transfer is necessary. Todd already has a plan in his mind. He is now anxious to pass Bertina's information to Nelson. Before getting in touch with Corps Head, they can only wait patiently.

After another two days, the eyes of the horned lizard larvae lit up with red light like flames, and they no longer hungry and thirsty in the face of Insect and fresh meat. Rogers immediately told Todd and the Red Wolf the good news. The three people waited so long, and the Imerson wizard finally noticed the abnormal condition of this alienated beast larva, and used wisdom to guide the witchcraft to descend his will on it.

After listening to Todd’s report, Imerson was silent for a moment, and said with emotion: "My Bell turned out to be a Legendary Witch Doctor? I gave her pet a severe beating. I was The headaches almost passed out...hehe, it’s my daughter."

"Your Excellency, Snake-Eyes Female Slave Thatch and two Assyrian men moved into the original cabin again. They obviously hoped. I can find it," Todd said.

Imerson controls the horned lizard larvae, makes a gu gu call, and asks: "What do you...what do you mean?"

Todd shook his head secretly and replaced it with Charlotte Mrs. Te can surely guess his plan, but facing a scholar wizard like Imerson, she has to explain a few more words, "I showed Sinu's token to the slave dealer, and Sinu and Tumen Witch Doctor went out together. In the end, only Tumen came back. Suppose Tumen told the Queen Witch Doctor that Sinu had taken refuge in us. Normally, the queen should send troops to attack our Eternal Youth Spring stronghold. This kind of thing did not happen, Tumen has a high probability He concealed our news. Moreover, we have not heard from Tumen these days. He is either dead or imprisoned. In short, he is now in a difficult situation."

"If Assyria next to thatch The warrior are not from Tumen. They are either the queen’s or some force loyal to the old king. They now know Sinu’s private soldiers, that is, the three of us have returned. The first thing that comes to mind is Sinu and escape. The Snake Eye Guardians have gathered."

"...Uh, that, can you make it simpler?"

Tao De pursed his lower lip and continued:" Assuming that the forces behind thatch belonged to the Old King, they misjudged that the Snake Eye Guards and Sinu’s private soldiers had assembled in secret, and they might have the courage to launch a rebellion."

"Oh, I understand what you mean. The horned lizard larvae turned its red eyes and chirped: "The other half of the probability, they are Queen Witch Doctor's people. I misunderstood that the remnants of the Snake Eye Guard gathered quietly and tried to catch you... They prepare in advance, so can you still cause confusion?"

Todd pulled the corner of his mouth, showing a cold smile, and said: "Your Excellency, this was originally a misjudgment, it is a kind of mistake. We are not the remnants of the Snake Eye Guard, and don’t care whether the old king’s people are dead or alive. As long as we assassinate a few Witch Doctors, the Witch Doctor queen’s people will misjudge the remnants of the Snake Eye Guard and the old king’s forces in the city to collude with each other. If they can’t catch us, they can only launch a great purge. Those Assyrian nobles who miss the old king can only fight back. This is our goal."

"I know this city is about to happen. What, I also know how to make it happen. Please pass my plan to Mrs. Charlotte and Pastor Dane, I am waiting for your reply." Tao De said sincerely.

After a short while, Imerson replied: "Mrs. Charlotte and Your Excellency Dane already know, and they support your plan. Madam wants you to do it, but pay attention to your own safety. The madam also said that we will gather our forces and pretend to attack Eternal Youth Spring in the settlement of Zero Wolf, and move the Queen Witch Doctor and her main force away from the city to create more opportunities for you... The time limit for witchcraft is approaching. God, let's get in touch again."

The red light in the eyes of the horned lizard larvae gradually dimmed, and the wizard's will left here. Todd couldn't help but squeezed his fist. Many years ago, Mercury planned a riot in the Stonetred City of the Dodo Kingdom. He got involved, unfortunately, as a pawn. The old spy Barol is the mastermind behind the scenes.

Nowadays, the situation in the main city of Assyria and Stonetred City are much the same, both of which are caused by internal strife due to the reform, and the conflict between the interest parties is close to the critical point of the conflict. Although those in power are beginning to redistribute benefits, the situation is developing in a positive direction. However, destruction is easier than construction.

Todd has suppressed his excitement and has made up his mind to trigger a riot in the main city of Assyria. If you miss this special period, it will be difficult to provoke conflicts between all parties.
