The sun shone like gold, shining on the icy stone path.

The three of them stood in the middle of the road in front of the tower, surrounded by soldiers and civilians. However, some of the clever ones found out that two of the two sides of the conversation were their immediate bosses, so after a while, the crowd dispersed, and everyone simply went back to their jobs.

Keeley's tone was not serious, it seemed to be a simple inquiry, after all, a teenage girl was really not dangerous, and he didn't need to be wary. At most, they were a little curious about what the little girl who had been following them wanted to do.

But it is clear that the other one has a different opinion.

"Wait!"

As a mage, even if he is old, his perception and memory are still one level stronger than that of Keeley, a warrior, he frowned, and his golden pupils flashed with surprise: "Silver level!" Such a young silver ...... Sure enough, Keeley, take a closer look at the style of this dress! ”

Since she had no intention of hiding, the silver-haired girl was not surprised that she had been discovered.

But after hearing this, not only Keeley, but even Hotaru herself was stunned, and the Miss Shenji subconsciously turned sideways and looked at what she was wearing-a white women's double-breasted military dress, not luxurious, not tacky, not strange, very ordinary.

But after careful examination, Keeley seemed to have found something, and he nodded thoughtfully, "You're right, I ignored it...... Yes, the design is exactly the same. ”

(What the hell is going on with these two guys.) ）

Hotaru frowned, a little confused about what the other party was trying to do, at first, it was just the masked warrior asking why he was following them, why did the topic suddenly jump to clothing design?

She couldn't help but want to identify herself and prove that she was also loyal to the lord of Moldavia, though it would be embarrassing to be lost......

"Ahem......"

There was silence for a while, and then with a light cough, Feng walked up to Hotaru, he bent down slightly, and looked at the silver-haired girl in front of him: "Excuse me, what do you have to do with Mr. Amos?" ”

"Mr. Amos? Do you mean Van? ”

After subconsciously saying it, Hotaru immediately understood the reason for the style of clothes that the other party had discussed before - if the clothes of the god machine were not deliberately changed, then after the magic appeared, all the styles that appeared were fixed, and the design style was very simple, which could be said to be the same.

As long as she has seen it for a long time and is familiar enough, it is not difficult to find that the uniform on her body is the same style as the old god machine of the previous generation.

"Sure enough."

Although there was no official answer, the result was the same. The white-haired mage nodded, he seemed very satisfied with his ability to discriminate: "Whether it is Fan or the steward of the old father, the design of the deacon's uniform of the Moldavian family has never changed, even if it is changed into women's clothing. ”

"The family of deacons who have followed the Radcliffe family for generations, this generation is actually a woman." The half-elf warrior also understood the reason why Hotaru followed them: "You should also come to see the young master, so let's go together." ”

This group of people seems to have a subtle misunderstanding of the existence of the divine machine.

Hotaru sighed, but felt a subtle relief, she nodded and said softly, "Okay." ”

- Conference Hall, a few minutes later.

“…… The Kuroshio Tide invasion, which caused more than a quarter of the fortress's walls facing the Black Forest to collapse due to the appearance of gold-level mammoths, is now being urgently repaired through the petrification spell of the elemental mage. According to the provisional statistics and battlefield cleaning reports, seven knights were killed in this battle, one hundred and thirty-one soldiers were killed, and nearly seven hundred were wounded. ”

The white-haired mage had a few scribbled reports in his hand, which he had compiled when he sent Zorgan for treatment, and since the entire fortress had more than two thousand professional soldiers, it was not difficult to count, so although this report could not guarantee that the data was completely correct, the approximate number would not vary much.

"Because when the walls were breached, a few wild beasts broke into the fortress, causing some civilians to be injured, but luckily no one lost their lives."

Joshua sat on the bench in the conference room, he reached out and took the reports handed over by Feng, looked through them for a while, and then couldn't help but wonder: "When I arrived, I happened to see the giant beast hitting the city wall, and I didn't know much about the previous situation, but just looking at the numbers, the loss this time didn't seem to be large, and it didn't seem to match the tense situation before." ”

When he first saw the collapse of the city wall, he thought that at least a thousand people would die, so he fell directly, and then used strong methods to kill the gold-level mammoth beast at the fastest speed, otherwise, he could have fought for a while, found out the weakness and then killed with one blow, I don't know how much easier it is than relying on pure brute force like this.

"If we just look at the casualty figures, in the face of the siege of 50,000 wild beasts, we only sacrificed so many people, which is indeed a small loss."

Keeley, who was standing on the side, took over at this time, he shook his head, this half-elf warrior had been standing on the front line, and understood what the situation was: "Warcraft originally didn't have many siege methods, except for brute force, at most it was a steady stream of climbing walls and piling up corpses, and most of our walls and fortresses were protected by T-shaped structures, and in the face of this kind of opponent, it should theoretically be in an absolute advantage." ”

"But in fact, even if we have an absolute advantage in defending the city, and even have hundreds of silver warriors going back and forth to sweep up the monsters that are climbing the city walls, but under the crazy and sacrificial attacks of the beasts, we still lose all the satellite fortresses, a large number of supplies and heavy equipment, and countless enchanted arrows and alchemy products consumed during the fortress defense war...... In addition, the other party still has a golden demonic beast, if you hadn't arrived in time, young master, it is estimated that there would not be a few living people left in the entire fortress. ”

This is indeed not a lie, if Joshua had not arrived in time, then the unstopped mammoth beast would indeed be able to destroy the entire fortress.

Fortunately, what humans are best at is using tools to create an advantage for themselves, two thousand regular troops plus the militia training troops on weekdays, if they are just defending the city, it is completely enough, although there are many of 50,000 wild beasts, it is impossible to attack the city wall so quickly in a short time.

And when the mammoth beast impacted, it didn't care if it was the monster or the human being trampled under the feet, so after the gap appeared in the city wall, the number of beasts that dared to pounce directly was not many, and within a few seconds, Joshua fell from the sky, killed the golden monster, and then scared the entire beast herd.

In this way, it is indeed normal that the loss is not large, but as Keeley said, the consumption of enchanted arrows and alchemy shells is indeed a large expense, and Joshua is now starting to worry a little about whether Moldavia will be able to come up with this money.

And, in any case, many people died in the battle, and this would have been an avoidable loss.

This paradoxical world with the game is undoubtedly real, death is death, and there is only one life.

However, it is probably because of this that I want to pursue something.

"Thank you both for your report.

Putting away the scribbled report in his hand and handing it to Hotaru who was standing behind him, Qiao Shuya said to the two thoughtfully: "Although there is still some information that is not very perfect, but now I can see that the two of you are very tired, so I won't say much, Feng You will give me another official document in a few days, and this will be the end of today." ”

"Yes! My lord. ”

Before leaving, Feng looked a little speechless, but finally said it after Keeley opened the door to the conference room.

"Maybe it's a delusion." The old mage said, "Young Master, I remember where I felt the breath of that thing you took out of the mammoth beast's body before. ”

"Feng, are you sure?"

Have you ever felt the breath of an abyss token?

Hearing this, Joshua's expression, which was originally in deep thought, suddenly became serious, and he even took out the silver egg-shaped object that was still shrunk into a ball from his pocket and handed it to the other party: "You are looking, recall carefully, where is the breath of this?" ”

“…… White Dragon. ”

Taking the silver egg that the abyss token turned into, the white-haired mage sensed it with his spirit, and then said with great certainty: "A few months ago, I felt similar fluctuations in the group of white dragons in the snow field. ”
