Chapter 130: Christopher's Plan (Ai)
Alfie, who was completely left aside, didn't understand what the hell these two were doing, obviously ignoring each other just now, and in the blink of an eye, they seemed to pity each other. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Is this the friendship between men in the legend? Alfie couldn't help but feel a chill when he thought of this.
The cacophony outside the hall soon faded away, and it was clear that Carmond had left with his troops. It seems that the combat preparations that Alfie saw outside just now were obviously for the sake of Camund's dispatch this time.
Christopher clapped his hands gently, and Skar, known as the "Calus Viper", appeared at the door of the hall.
"Skar, tell you to go down and follow the plan, and make sure everything is ready before Carmond returns from his army. Christopher commanded.
"Yes. Top dog. Skar saluted Christopher and exited the hall as if he hadn't seen Elphie.
Alfi didn't notice this, but looked down and thought: Send troops, send troops! Could it be that Kamund is leading troops to attack the Wall of Sighs? Alfie suddenly realized that this might be the beginning of the pictures of the battle he had seen under the influence of Milodi's potion, and this thought made his face change suddenly.
"What's wrong with you, why did your face become so ugly?" Christopher asked with a light cough again, knowing everything about Alfie's behavior, even though he had his back to Alfie.
"Is the leader of Carmond leading his troops to attack the Wall of Sighs?" Alfie asked, her voice trembling.
Hearing Alfie's question, Christopher turned around suddenly, and his violent movements caused another light cough.
"Tell me, what are you venturing to fly over the river for? The average bard doesn't have the heart and mood to pay attention to the Wall of Sighs. Christopher didn't answer Alfie's question, but asked as he stared into Alfie's eyes.
Truth be told, Alfie had seriously considered whether or not to take advantage of the opportunity to knock Christopher down, and he had learned the magic of an ice sword from Koco. If he condensed an ice sword, Alfie felt that he was very likely to knock down the guy who seemed to be coughing, but considering the heavily guarded Calus camp outside, Alfie had to temporarily dispel this unreliable idea.
Even if he could knock Christopher down, Alfie didn't think he had the strength to take him hostage.
Christopher saw that Alfie's face changed several times, his fist was quietly clenched and quietly released, and he raised his eyebrows with interest.
"Because I had a dream that the bands of thieves outside the Wall of Sighs broke through the Wall of Sighs and caused great harm to the civilians. Under the gaze of Christopher's ice-blue eyes, Alfie suddenly decided to tell the truth. As soon as the words came out, he realized that his state at this time was not much different from when he was in Catherine's charm technique.
'Shet!' Alfie blamed himself, and after knowing his true purpose, Christopher would definitely cut him. Unexpectedly, after listening to it, the other party fell into a deep thought, which made him feel uneasy.
"Dreams, did you know that your dreams came true two days ago?" asked Christopher, looking up suddenly.
"What? The Wall of Sighs has been breached, I didn't expect you to move so quickly!" Elfi exclaimed excitedly, now in a state of utter self-defeating mindset, and instead bursting out with more courage than usual.
"I guess you misunderstood something, and who said we broke the Wall of Sighs?" Christopher asked calmly, as if he had expected Alfie's performance.
"You are not the mastermind, but also the accomplices!!, otherwise what are you doing with such a strong camp of Calus?" Alfie angrily accused, in his opinion that it was absolutely ill-intentioned to build such a strong fortress here.
"I think you need to calm down. Christopher said softly, and Alfie was surprised to find that he couldn't move at all, and then cold water mixed with ice cubes appeared out of thin air, pouring him cold on his heart.
While the sudden ice water calmed Alfie completely, he was also stunned to find that Christopher in front of him was really extraordinary, and he actually imprisoned him quietly and cast a water magic, from this point of view, Christopher is at least a high-level magician.
'Careless again!' Alfie scolded secretly, being able to use the charm spell on him unknowingly, in fact, Christopher's identity as a magician had been exposed, and it was ridiculous that he wanted to hold him hostage just now. This realization made Alfie's heart die for a while.
"Looks like you've calmed down, and I think we can have a good talk. Seeing that the anger in Alfie's eyes was gradually canceled by a sad look, Christopher nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand lightly, untying Alfie.
Alfie sat weakly on the ground, judging from the lineup he had just seen, even in the face of the regular army of the Empire, Carmond and his men were probably not left behind, let alone in the face of unarmed civilians. It turns out that his strength is so weak that he can't do anything at all.
"First of all, I want to clarify that Kamond is not leading troops to attack the Wall of Sighs, but to sweep the depths of the Warcraft Forest. Christopher sat back in his high-backed chair and said slowly.
"Sweeping the depths of the Warcraft Forest?" you mean......" Alfie jerked his head up, the implication in Christopher's words was too obvious for him to believe his own reasoning.
"Sweeping the depths of the Warcraft Forest on the west bank of the Great River, do you understand?" Christopher hinted further, as if he was afraid that Alfie wouldn't understand.
"Could it be that the leader of the Carmond is targeting the lair of the thieves?" Alfie asked incredulously, but Christopher was clearly hinting at it.
"The boy doesn't look stupid. Christopher smiled slightly, confirming Alfie's guess.
The sudden news almost made Alfie faint with happiness, it turned out that he wanted to go to the lair of the thieves group to make trouble, but he didn't expect that Carmond was already ready to do it, and the gap in strength made Carmond do it more thoroughly than him, so he simply went directly to the nest of those thieves.
"Great! Now the thieves will have to come back to save their nest, and we're laying a pocket to catch them all!" Alfie jumped up from the ground excitedly.
Hearing Alfie's tactics, Christopher nodded approvingly, but he immediately poured another basin of cold water on him: "I think you underestimated the intelligence and ruthlessness of those outlaws. It's impossible to say how many thieves will go back to their nest, and if you're one of those thieves, what choice would you make if you knew that your nest was ended?"
Hearing Christopher's thoughtful question, Alfie pondered: 'If it were me, the best thing to do would be ......'
Alfie suddenly sweated profusely, and he suddenly felt that if the nest of those thieves was destroyed, I am afraid that the best option would be to completely abandon the nest and build a new nest in the fertile land of the empire, which would probably cause more damage to the empire.
"Looks like you get it. Christopher coughed lightly again, "That's why Carmond left two days late, in order to give the thieves the illusion that their nest is still alive, and to attract as many reinforcements as possible." ”
"Then the best thing to do is to surround them and not let them go, wait for all of them to get into their pockets, and then wipe them all out in one fell swoop!" Alfie said with blazing eyes.
"I just don't know how many 'clever people' in the thieves can see through this plan. Christopher suddenly lost faith in his elaborate plan, so "simple" that even a young bard could see through it, and I wonder how many cunning old foxes he could fool?
