Chapter 51 The Trial
According to the information she obtained, this forward base originally belonged to the Mensa family, and it has been in operation for more than ten years, with more than 500 resident soldiers, and it controls the surrounding area of dozens of kilometers, which is completely a small city, far larger than the small outpost left by the Akmund family to Richard. The difference can be seen in the appearance of the ingee, the 10-meter-high wall is not at all comparable to the four-meter wall.
If this scale continues to operate steadily, it will only take another ten years to be eligible to apply for an independent plane number from the Eternal Dragon Palace. If the leader is both resourceful and uses trickery to obtain a legal identity in the mainstream social system of the plane, the time required is even shorter. And numbered planes also mean stable plane channels, a larger amount of resource exchange, and high plane development profits. This is also one of the important reasons why Schumpeter is willing to spend blood.
But right in front of Sinclair's eyes, the base like a small city was quiet, the gates were half-open and half-closed, and there was no one at the head of the city, and it was eerily quiet. And the base is surrounded by forests, and there is not even a road to the rest of the world.
How could a city with more than 2,000 people living and more than 500 soldiers be stored alone in a barren mountain forest? Within a radius of several tens of kilometers, even if the basic supplies for agriculture were not considered, at least a dozen villages should be set up in terms of the strategic defense layout alone. She didn't think the Mensa family would make such a common-sense mistake.
Sinclair's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was already a strong sense of foreboding in his heart. With a wave of his hand, the leader of the Bear Knights personally led ten knights and a great mage into the base.
Half an hour later, the leader of the Bear Rider and the Grand Mage walked out of the base, both of them looking very ugly. Standing in front of Sinclair, they all didn't know how to speak.
Sinclair said coldly, "Say, what can't you say? Could it be that there are dead people inside? What's the big deal, anyway, it's the Mensa family who are dead." ”
The leader of the Bear Riders finally said, "My lord, there is no one in the base, no one. But everything is there, including armament, food, clothing, everything, but there is no one. ”
The great magician next to him also spoke, but it was unpleasant: "But everything can't be used, this base is full of remnants of the power of time, and it can't be cleared at all, and it can't even be lived." ”
"Where's the Time Lighthouse!?" Sinclair roared.
The leader of the Bear Knights and the Grand Mage looked at each other, and finally it was the leader of the knights who said, "It's extinguished......"
"It's already extinguished?!" Sinclair screamed, and the stirring sound waves echoed even across the base.
"Yes!" said the chief knight, stiffly.
Sinclair froze, thinking about something. For a moment everyone was silent, and only the sound of the wind could be heard in the forest.
"Hehe, hehehehe, hahaha!" Hinkrell suddenly laughed, and the more he laughed, the louder it became, and then it was almost startled by a mountain of birds!
Her crazy smile lasted for more than ten minutes before she gradually subsided, and her face flushed strangely, making her even more seductive.
Finally, she gasped and said, "So, we're actually on a whole new plane, and we can't go back! The Norland guys can't find us unless we can rekindle this beacon of time! Fucking good, finally get rid of those disgusting old guys who think they are! You guys, you need to make a decision now, are you going to go big with me?"
The leader of the Bear Knights and the two archmages looked at each other, and both expressed their willingness to continue to fight with Sinclair in this unfamiliar plane, and would be completely at her command.
Even if they don't want to, there is no way, there are always only two ways to conquer the plane, one is outright violent occupation, the invaders who take this path are the enemies of almost all creatures in the plane, and the other way is to infiltrate the mainstream social system of the plane, so that the indigenous alliance can be obtained, but the risk and difficulty of this path will not be much less than the first way, and even the level of the gods in this plane will be more hostile.
The knight leaders and magicians only know how to fight on the battlefield, and they are far inferior to Sinclair in terms of political strategy, and they have left Norland's follow-up support, even if this is really just a plane with eighteenth level as the strength limit, they can't support it for long. And in the end, with Sinclaire's character, if she refuses to be loyal, then she is likely to go on a killing spree immediately.
Sinclair smiled, his eyes swept over the faces of the three people, and then said, "You guys are smart!
The two archmages let go of the magic probe, only vaguely aware of it, but they couldn't tell what it was. And sensing time and space is not what the leader of the Bear Knights is good at, so he simply doesn't spend his energy.
Seeing that the three of them were confused, Sinclair smiled weirdly, spit out the tip of his bright red tongue and ** his lips very temptingly, and said: "The speed of time in this plane is only about one-eighth to one-tenth of that of Norland! In other words, this plane has been blessed with the divine grace of the dragon of eternity and time, and we can enjoy it as well! So when we lay down this plane and return to Norland, we will definitely be able to give those old guys an extremely deep impression!" I can't wait to try the taste of the old guys' hearts. ”
She patted the manticore on the neck, and the huge manticore immediately stood up and let out an earth-shattering roar!
"Come with me!Find a place to sleep tonight, preferably with young and beautiful men and women!" The manticore leaped past the heads of the many town bear knights and rushed down the hill first.
In the Grand Temple of the Duchy of White Rock, Esin was kneeling in a side hall, telling of the intruders that had taken place in the Barony of Forsa. The area of the side hall is not large, but there is a high platform on one side, and three elderly priests sit at the back of the high platform. Whether it was from the rich divine power fluctuations or the color of their clothes, they were all one order higher than Eshin. Judging from the layout of the side hall, Essien is more like he is on trial.
He was indeed on trial. The temple of the God of Courage was destroyed, the fragment of the "Bearer" that even the God of Courage held in high esteem was lost, the Templars and the Priesthood were all killed in battle, and any of the three charges were enough to give Essien a cup of poisoned wine.
However, Esin's voice was still sonorous and powerful, and after stating what had happened, he did not defend his crime, but earnestly asked the Grand Temple to immediately send a group of battle priests, as well as the main force of the Templar Knights, especially to dispatch all the high-ranking Templar Knights, and then borrow an elite mountain army from the Grand Duke of Baiyan, in an effort to wipe out all the invaders in one fell swoop.
