Chapter 59: Two Fortresses

Through the door of the bathroom, Tang Yi heard the conversation outside the door, it was unexpected good news, it turned out that because Scarlett had been shopping for things in the afternoon and didn't go to training, a student cadre specially came to inform her that this field combat confrontation of the knight major would be jointly practiced with the bow and crossbow major, and the departure time of the knight major was also postponed to the same as the bow and crossbow major.

Although there was an extra day, it was still not a lot of money for Tang Yi, and he had to set up fourteen delayed balloons at night, and due to the restrictive nature of the candles, he had to find some claustrophobic environment like the boiler room.

During the day, she had to learn as much as she could about the actual match from Scarlett, as well as all the personal information about Jones.

So in the next time, Tang Yi didn't make a joke with Scarlett again, except for tracing the 'hard' character of the foreign object talisman into the first golden stroke, he was thinking about things.

Tang Yi felt that this 'hard' foreign object rune might be able to be used this time, because the ability of this rune was to double the hardness of inanimate objects, and living creatures would turn into statues and harden for twenty-four hours, but as for where to use it, it depended on the situation.

The night before departure, Tang Yi did not return to Scarlett's bedroom after arranging the last delay balloon, although Scarlett's big bed was very comfortable to sleep on, he still ran to the northern outskirts of the city, wrapped in a plastic bag and tied himself to the branch of a large tree and slept for several hours.

After Scarlett's explanation, he already knew that when the students participating in the competition walked out of the school gate, the first 'march' of the competition had already begun.

Tang Yi rode on the branch of the tree, looking at the simple map that Scarlett had drawn for him, and at the same time looking up at the road out of the city from time to time.

After seeing the banner of a knight's specialty, he jumped off the branch and ran at a constant speed towards the mountain where the competition was being practiced, according to the map in his hand.

If it weren't for the joint practice of the knight profession and the bow and crossbow profession this time, Tang Yi would definitely not dare to run on the road, because even if he was not slow now, he would not be able to outrun the horse.

Tang Yi's current speed is about thirty kilometers per hour, so it takes ten hours to run to the territory of the competition drill, of course he can't run the whole distance in one go, running for an average of two hours, and having to rest for half an hour, so when he entered the range of the competition drill, it was already more than ten o'clock in the evening.

Still found a big tree to rest, tonight the knight major and bow and crossbow major students should rest halfway, so tomorrow he still has half a day to familiarize himself with the specific area of the knight professional confrontation drill in previous years.

As soon as the sky was slightly bright, Tang Yi had already woken up, first ate a little food from his backpack, and then headed towards the markers on the map.

In recent years, the confrontation of the military major of Guhes Academy has been based on defending fortresses and competing for resources, and Tang Yi speculates that this may be related to the future strategic intentions of the country's military.

However, the height of the country has nothing to do with him, he now has to find the two military fortresses on the map, and the various fake resource points built in the middle of his fortress.

Two hours later, Tang Yi hid in the grass outside a military fortress, which had walls and castles, and there were also many 'ballista' fortresses built on the city walls.

Scarlett told him that during the war, these forts were filled with 'steam ballistas', and the 'main boilers' of these 'ballistas' were in that castle.

However, the 'main boiler' and 'steam ballista' have long since been dismantled and moved, and these bunkers are filled with wooden models, but they are still used as 'steam ballistas' in the match.

The 'ballistas' were fake, but the sentries patrolling the walls were real, and they belonged to the security personnel of the Guchs Academy, who would come to the area before each match, inspect and inspect the various forts and some buildings, and wait for the instructors to enter the arena with the students before handing them over.

Therefore, Tang Yi can't enter the fortress, but even if he can get in, it doesn't make much sense, when the fortress is the base camp of the two sides, the defense and patrol will be more strict, if he wants to do something in the fortress, it will be almost like throwing himself into a net.

Now that he knew the location of this fortress, Tang Yi then began to advance towards the opposite side of this fortress.

Passing by a coal mine, an iron mine, two abandoned farms, two dilapidated villages, and an abandoned factory, a hundred miles away, Tang Yi saw another military fortress.

These fake resource points are quite interesting, coal and iron mines do have pits deep underground, and rail cars that transport ore.

There are many sacks filled with weeds on the farm, and the sacks have the words 'grain' written on them, and thousands of broken leather balls are placed in the overgrown fields, and the word 'pumpkin' can be faintly seen on some of the balls.

As for the village, it is even more interesting, there are plastic dummies everywhere, not to mention, it feels quite scary to walk in such a village.

The abandoned factory was even more well-equipped, with four large factories lined with rusty machinery, each with a note on it indicating the usefulness of the equipment.

When passing by each resource point, Tang Yi was very attentive, and even sketched a simple sketch with a pen and paper.

In this mountainous area of the competition, these two fortresses are the best practice areas, and in previous years, different specialties would stagger the time of use, but this year, due to the different projects of other professional exercises, coupled with the fact that the knight major and the bow and crossbow major had an informal joint drill, they completely occupied this place.

For Tang Yi, there are pros and cons to this matter, the advantage is that he doesn't have to follow the knight profession to run around, and the disadvantage is that it is not messy enough.

After scouting the various resource points, Tang Yi hid near the military fortress in the east, found a position that was both hidden and had a good line of sight, and began to trace the word 'speed' in his mind while waiting patiently.

Two hours later, the two teams holding the banners of the knight profession and the bow and crossbow profession came to the gate of the fortress together, Tang Yi immediately opened the monocular in his hand and carefully searched in the team of the bow and crossbow professional.

Today's Scarlett, wearing the crossbowman's special leather armor, the black close-fitting style sets off her plump figure even more attractive, but at this time her face is as ugly as it looks.

After taking a few deep breaths in a row and scanning the surrounding woods, Scarlett finally made up her mind helplessly, pinched her waist with both hands, bent her knees, and jumped up three times on the spot.
