Chapter 535: Defection (2-in-1)
While Bai Xiaowen saluted, he also quietly threw out an insight at Same, suggesting that 70 psionic points had been deducted.
"This is a summoner who is biased towards the team support type...... Bai Xiaowen was more surprised in his heart that Samet's profession was actually a temple high priest. Although he didn't know what the "Temple of Karnak" meant, such a young man as Samet was actually a high priest, which was as intriguing as his status as a legion's leader.
"Lord Samet, this junior officer named Dio, disobeys my orders. "Zehu, the commander of the fourth phalanx, stepped forward, and the wicked sued first.
Samet looked at Bai Xiaowen: "Did you say you wanted to see me?
Zehu opened his mouth a little uneasily, but did not dare to speak.
"That's the case...... Bai Xiaowann first told about the discovery of the Hittite scouts, and then recounted the results, "I killed two and captured the other two alive. From their mouths, I learned an amazing news...... Therefore, it is necessary to report to the Legion Commander in person. ”
"What's the shocking news?" asked Same, frowning.
"This kind of secrecy is probably not suitable for explanation here. "Bai Xiaowen is still very confidential.
Samey nodded: "There is some truth. He looked up and said, "All the soldiers are two hundred steps back." ”
The crowd receded like a tidal wave, leaving behind a circular field with a radius of two hundred paces.
Bai Xiaowen looked at the group of big-shouldered and round-waisted guards beside Same.
"They are my most loyal guards and the shield of the kingdom, and there will be no security problems. You can say it now. Samet said.
Bai Xiaowen nodded slightly, and asked a question first: "Lord Same, may I ask if the Pharaoh is near Kadeshi City now." ”
Samet looked at Bai Xiaowen for a while before nodding: "Yes, there were two escaped Bedouin nomads who brought information about the main Hittite force before. At present, the main force of the Hittite army is far away in Harpa, hundreds of miles away, and the garrison of Kadeshi is weak. The pharaoh led the armies of Amun gods to cross the Oronte River first, and stationed in the south of the city of Kadie, planning to capture the city of Kadei first and take the lead in the war. ”
"Really?"
Bai Xiaowen squinted his eyes and said, "But in the confession of the Hittite scouts, it is said that the main force of the Hittite army has secretly moved to the east bank of the Oronte River, preparing to ambush the Pharaoh!"
Samet frowned, apparently gauging the veracity of this information. He quickly raised his head.
"This piece of information you gave is important. I have taken these two Hittite scouts with me, and I will interrogate them severely. Samet said.
Bai Xiaowen was a little surprised: "Lord Same, the current situation is that the pharaoh is facing a crisis, and he may be surrounded by the main force of the Hittites at any time...... I don't think there's any time to waste, and I should send someone across the river to Kadeshi as soon as possible to report this news to Pharaoh. The Ptah Legion should also immediately move in the direction of Kadeshi and prepare to participate in the battle. ”
Samet's eyes sharpened: "Remember who you are, Captain Dior. I am the decision-maker of this legion, and I will not send an unconfirmed piece of information to Pharaoh! After the whole army is assembled, according to Pharaoh's predetermined order, go north and target the city of Ugarit!"
With a flick of his cloak, Same's five colorful feathers flashed, like a proud rooster, and turned away. He also took the two Hittites captives.
......
Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi stood on the chariot, and the sound of creaking wooden wheels on the ground kept coming to their ears.
"You've made a meritorious achievement, why don't you have any hints? Li Shuyi said in the team channel.
Bai Xiaowen's brows furrowed, and he kept thinking about the problem. Hypotheses surged up in his super brain, and then combined with the existing information to make inferences, and then eliminated the hypotheses with low probabilities one by one.
"There is a problem with Same. Bai Xiaowen suddenly said.
Li Shuyi was taken aback: "Isn't he?" he is one of the four major army commanders, and what kind of high priest is he in a high position at such a young age......
"As an emperor and want to ascend to the immortal, what's so strange about this, don't underestimate people's greed," Bai Xiaowen said, "I originally wanted to get a mission to report from Sammet and smoothly enter the vision of Pharaoh Ramses...... However, Samet did not send even a single messenger, and still insisted on the original plan of marching...... This is very unlike the actions of a legionary commander who was faithful to Pharaoh. ”
"So what should we do?" asked Li Shuyi.
Bai Xiaowen thought for a while and said, "Since Samet doesn't give the task, we will do it alone." The information was fragments of my memories that I had telepathically read with a bewilderment charm, and two Hittite captives had died for it...... So the authenticity is completely reliable. One of the two living Hittites who were now taken away was still under the control of the Confusion Charm. ”
"As long as we can meet Pharaoh Ramses and warn him and get him out of danger, I guess the main quest will be almost complete. And the favorability accumulated from the pharaoh can be used for subsequent investigations into the Silent Tongue organization. ”
"Good. Li Shuyi's answer was short and forceful.
Bai Xiaowen pulled the reins, and the cart and war horse in the jogging let out a long neigh. Immediately afterwards, the horse turned to the left and broke away from the troops.
Following behind, the former driver who was demoted to infantry, Meru, saw this scene and couldn't help but scream: "Dio, what are you doing?"
Bai Xiaowen didn't answer this guy at all, and with the help of spiritual power, he drove the war horse to the dense forest on the left.
Meru shouted, "Someone, Law Enforcement Team, Commander, Dio is going to defect!" In fact, he didn't think that Bai Xiaowen was going to defect or anything, he just said it on purpose.
"Congratulations, that's right. Bai Xiaowen smiled and raised the Desert Eagle to Meru.
One shot hits the center of the eyebrows!
Vital Attack!Critical Hit!Piercing Effect!Killing Thirst Trigger!
Meru fell on his back.
This shot succeeded in deterring the other Egyptian soldiers, and no one dared to stop them.
Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi drove the chariot, suddenly turned back, and circled around Meru's corpse. Then, Bai Xiaowen pulled the reins again, and the chariot rushed west again, disappearing from everyone's field of vision.
......
The central phalanx of the Ptah Divine Legion, a giant flatbed carriage with an intricately carved decoration and a width of four or five meters, marched smoothly on this undulating road.
The flatbed carriage was pulled by four tall horses, and on top of it was a rather imposing throne, on which the legion's commander, the high priest of the temple of Karnak, Samat, sat lazily.
Beside the armrests of the throne knelt two handmaidens dressed in tulle, and around the throne there was a veil-like curtain. The throne chariot was surrounded by a group of wolf-like guards, driving the chariot around Samet.
A lanky white-robed man on a horse quickly approached the throne, and the surrounding guards quickly moved out of the way.
"Master, I'm back. The white-robed man said respectfully.
"Naihe, are those two damn nomads gone?" asked Samet.
"In obedience to the will of his master, he has sent them to Osiris. ”
"Hmph, that's good. Damn the Hittites, stupid Muvatalis, sent someone to spy on me!" Sammet snorted.
"Master, the Hittites and we are hostile after all, and it is normal to be suspicious. Naihe, the man in the white robe, said.
"Just spy on me. The point is, what kind of miscellaneous pieces did he send? He was actually killed by a soldier from Orion, and two were captured alive...... Fortunately, I personally intervened when I was on patrol in the army, otherwise it would have been troublesome. ”
"Now, the plans are still well underway, master. ”
Samet snorted, re-enthroned on the throne, and narrowed his eyes.
Suddenly, Zehu, the commander of the fourth phalanx, hurried over and shouted through Samet's personal guards: "Lord Samet!
"Let him come. Samet said with a frown.
The chariot of the Guards gave way of the way, and Zehu rode to the throne.
"What's wrong?" Samet asked lazily.
"My lord, the charioteer captain named Dior...... Defected with his deputy!" Zehu said hurriedly, "They took a chariot and killed an infantryman who tried to stop them...... By the time I got the news, it was too late. ”
Sammet jerked to his feet, his gold-carved glass slamming down.
"What does this daring Orion want to do?"
Naihe whispered, "Master, he may not have defected...... Instead, I went to Kadiesh!"
Samet muttered, "How dare he ......?"
"Not by common sense, but a soldier who dares to capture the enemy cavalry alone and beat up his colleagues is highly likely. He may have seen something and wanted to fight for a way out, and once the bet was right, he was likely to soar. ”
"Can't let him run away like this!" Samet said in an accentuated tone, "Naihe, I now order you to lead a phalanx and capture Dio. How sure are you that you will succeed?"
Naihe hurriedly said: "Master, there is no need to send an army to capture two fugitives, it is like hitting ants with a fist, but it is not as accurate and lethal as a finger." I recommend...... 'Zaryn' should have been sent over. ”
Samet nodded, "You have a point. Inform me at once, Zaron, you must cut that damn Dio off for me and bring him his head!"
After giving this order, Samet thought for a moment and gave the order again: "Give the order to the whole army, change the route of the march, and turn right to the east...... I'm going to the Sabu Tuna Ferry! I'm going to enter the Kadeshi battlefield!"
Naiher was surprised and said, "Master, this is not in line with our plan. ”
"I understand," said Samet, grimacing, "that this damn Dio has disrupted my plans. I had to be there in person, and I couldn't leave my fate to the stupid Hittites. ”
......
After Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi broke away from the Ptah army, they made a big circle, and then went all the way to the east.
"The Hittite scout I controlled is dead. Bai Xiaowen was suddenly shocked.
"Killed?"
"It should be. This confirms my belief even more, that there is something wrong with Same. In times of war, two enemy scouts, alive are more valuable than dead. Bai Xiaowen said.
"Hmm...... Death is death, leave that alone. Look at what's in the chest. Li Shuyi said.
"Hehe, I didn't expect to kill a monster with an ordinary template and drop the treasure chest. Bai Xiaowen held an ordinary treasure chest and said with a smile. Before, he turned around and walked around Meru, not to do any strange curse rituals, nor to demonstrate or whip the corpse, but to find that Meru had dropped the treasure chest, and turned around to pick it up.
Bai Xiaowen was not as free and easy as the three powerhouses who cut off the arm of the Flame Demon at the beginning, and the few drops of the Flame Demon's bone marrow that fell said don't want it...... Mosquito legs are also meat.
The treasure chest is invisible in the eyes of the spiritual figures, so the infantry can't understand the meaning of Bai Xiaowen's return.
Open the chest, which is graded E - there is only one chance to draw it, and there is a 2/3 chance of a bye.
Bai Xiaowen got 70 psionic points...... It's better than nothing. He casually clicked on a loot card.
The card was flipped, and the first thing he saw was that it was not blank, and Bai Xiaowen smiled.
Then, Bai Xiaowen got a hint: "You got the equipment: cowhide boots." ”
This is a blue suit bound to equipment, with average attributes, and neither of them can use it, but because it is a bundle, at least it can be sold for some money.
"It's off to a good start. Li Shuyi said with a smile. Pulling out the blue suit from the ordinary treasure chest, or tying the blue suit, no matter how you look at it, it is a small probability event, and the character explodes.
Bai Xiaowen, on the contrary, sighed: "It's over, it's a waste of character...... According to the law of conservation of character, this time the character broke out and overdrafted the luck, and I don't know how long it will take to save up to recover ......"
Li Shuyi glanced at Bai Xiaowen.
Either way, it's a good thing that it's shipped.
"How do I get to Kadi Rock City?" asked Li Shuyi.
"From the analysis of the world map, ancient Egypt is located in North Africa, and this time the pharaoh is conquering the Syrian region, so the general direction is to go northeast, which is correct. The Ptah Legion marched all the way north to attack Ugarit, as evidenced by this......"
