1024

In the south of Saland, the Black Forest, although the name has the meaning of forest, but in fact this is not a densely wooded area, on the contrary, this is a desert area covered with loess, the most distributed is the countless mountain streams and ravines that have been washed out by the flowing water, but the water has dried up and disappeared, or left some turbid mudstone, as if it was cut through the ground by a huge nail plow, leaving a hideous scar more than ten meters deep,

There was almost no sign of vegetation on the bare land, only some low and yellow shrubs trembling in the howling wind, and when the night fell, the night wind blew, and there would be a black sand storm here.

From a distance, it looks like a layer of black dense forest shaking in the sky, in the legend of the Salander people, this is the place where the Mocha people used to imprison criminals, so the Salander Kingdom generally uses this place as a place of imprisonment for exiles, once exiled into this area, it is basically equivalent to a death sentence, and the prisoners will be ordered to be tied to the back of the wild horses lying on their stomachs, so that they can follow the wild horses into the hinterland of the Black Forest, and those who can survive, even if they survive, will get lost in this desert with almost no indication at all, and become the prey of wild beasts

This is a cursed area by the gods, so only those who have been abandoned by the gods can survive in this area of severe water scarcity, and some lost hunters once said that they found a special area in the depths of the desert, where there is no wind and sand, but a quiet and beautiful place, but when they lead the surveyors there, they often do not return, after a long time. It is also regarded as a fantasy legend by the Salander people, like a mirage seen in the desert,

In the faint cloud of dust, a group of hundreds of knights covered in hoods moved, wearing chain mail made of metal plates and a leather burqa on the outside, behind the knights. All of them were carrying a huge longbow, indicating that these knights were very rare archers.

With the sound of clashing cards, the knight walking at the front stopped. She casually lifted the hood on her head, revealing a dazzling red hair, a net made of hundreds of deep-sea pearls, covering the long red hair like a waterfall, which immediately made the long red hair exude a color like luster

The beauty of this woman is extremely special, and the incomparable charm that comes out of the table is full of a wild and wild nature that cannot be tamed. The long fiery red hair fluttered in the wind, floating behind him and curling unyieldingly. The big eyes flashed with a deep and sharp light that girls shouldn't have, like a sharp sword out of the sheath, ready to tear the opponent apart at any time.

The corners of her mouth are slightly upturned, as if she is always mocking someone, with a bit of girlish fox, but also mixed with the unique charm of a mature woman, and her dress is also quite similar to the style of the wandering wild knights on the mainland.

A dark purple jumpsuit with short culottes just enough to cover his thighs, two white and slender thighs, each tied with a sharkskin dagger that would never appear on the knight's body.

The slender waist that can definitely be called the proportion of the devil, tied with this rose-like red silk belt, is full of wild dress, but it reveals a fatal attraction that makes people unwilling to look away,

Wild, unrestrained, burning like a flame, if the sea goddess Hulun Feilin is able to ignite the flame of the sea, then she is the sand city storm that swept a qiฤ“ in the great desert,

Now. Where she stopped was a concave slope, and in front of the downhill the trees began to grow more and more, and there were only one or two lonely trees growing there, but now they were clustered in one place, and there was a small forest in front of it. This is a real wood, and every three or five steps there is a small tree, although the trunk is very slender, although the branches and leaves are sparse and not dense, but in this reckless desert, it is already a very gratifying sight. ...,

Being able to see patches of green is enough to make one feel like one has gone from hell to heaven. This is indeed paradise, a paradise in the middle of the desert. Further on, green grass began to grow on the ground, and sometimes clumps of shrubs emerged from the ground like arrows. These shrubs are of a very peculiar shape, with five or six leaves on top of their straight stems.

In the middle of the meadow there is a road that has been trampled out by people, although it is also loess, but because the water is locked in the soil, it is moist and moist and extremely fertile and moist, and the trees and grass constitute a simple but extremely beautiful scene, and everyone who has just walked into here from the desert will be shocked by this beautiful scenery.

No one can explain how this oasis in the desert came to be, the only thing that can be said is that this is the only life that the exiled prisoners found in this desperate situation.

Passing through the woods, in the middle of the meadow there was a city, although it was a bit far-fetched, at best it could be considered a large town, consisting of a thousand tents of different shapes, but it was quite lively, and the caravans and the refugees of Salander who had settled here transformed it into a noisy and lively bazaar

The Black Forest is located halfway between the northern and central regions of Zhizaland, and if you cross the mountains of Zhisaland from here, you can save at least a third of the time, and if it had not been proven, no one would have thought that there would be this oasis of life in the Black Forest, which is called unsurvivable, and this is the stronghold of the Black Forest lark, Umuto.

Bai Ling Suk rode into the range of his base camp with a high look, and when he saw his leader returning, the soldiers in charge of guarding the city gate hurriedly lowered the drawbridge, and when Bai Ling Suk entered the city hall, he happened to meet Su Yanis, the great elder of the tribe who was eager to come

"Lord Bailing, is this trip quite smooth?" Elder Suyanis asked with a concerned face, and there was a hint of incomprehensible solemnity in his tone,

Seeing that it was the beloved Great Elder, the Mamunuk knights who followed behind Bai Ling Suke stopped one after another, and naturally kept a distance from the two, no one would doubt the Great Elder, because the young patriarch Bai Ling Suke grew up completely under the protection of the Great Elder, and taking over the power of the clan was also a matter of the first 2 years, if the Great Elder had the intention to be unfavorable to the Young Patriarch, and now he is still standing here and is respected as the Patriarch, it is the Great Elder.

"It's okay, but it doesn't feel good to be rejected!"

The red-haired girl who stopped her feet said a little depressed, she went to Yueans this time completely in the name of buying food, and thought that she would be able to be received by the head of the Falcon Army. Who knows, but eats a closed door,

"I heard that the Falcon Army has issued a food ban, I don't know if it's true!" Great Elder Suyanis continued to ask with a solemn face and a concerned tone

"Yes, I saw that notice in the city," said the red-haired girl with a nonchalant face, "It's funny to say, what does the food ban have to do with us? What's more, the hoarding some time ago, we can support it for at least 3 years, and I don't believe that the Falcon Army will be able to blockade it for 3 years, so the Great Elder doesn't need to worry about it at all!"

Hearing Bailing Suke's words, the corner of Great Elder Suyanis smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "Young Patriarch, why are you still like this, you don't want to think about it. Since the Falcon Army has chosen to ban food, it must have planned the rest of the matter a long time ago, and the ban really has nothing to do with us. But for the other forces of Zhisaran, they are undoubtedly pushing to death!

The population of our Sukh tribe is only more than 20,000 people, even if it is fast, it can still support for a while, and the other forces have 400,000 people, especially the son of Salander, Jalandir, and there are 180,000 southerners in the city of Zhisaran below, and after the grain ban, they will either choose to rebel immediately, or they will choose to annex each other to plunder the grain. In the forces of Zhizalan, if there is anyone who has the most food and the weakest military strength, who else but us Sukhs! Even if they choose to rebel, they will choose to eat us first and get enough food before rebelling!"...,

"The Great Elder is too filtered. They want to eat us, but they must be able to find this place, if it is really unavoidable, my Sukh chasers are not vegetarians, in this desert, 3,000 chasers are enough to sweep away the 20,000 refugee army of the sons of Salander."

Su Ke Bailing replied with a firm face, judging the two of them from the charming and moving girl just now, at this time, she exuded a murderous aura all over her body, and she really had the style of a general who commanded a thousand armies.

"Really, what if several forces unite at the same time? Don't forget, the archers of the Sky Sect are the nemesis of our chasseurs, and the Tiger Mamouuk knights of a regiment under the command of Count Bernik, and the spear assaults of Ssafi are all elites who are not inferior to our desert chassers."

Great Elder Suyanis's voice paused, and the corners of his mouth sneered helplessly, "You may not know that just this morning, our chasseurs patrolling the edge of the desert discovered the armies of the four factions of Zhisalan City, Sky Sect, Bernick, and Ssafi, and it can be seen that they also know about the food ban, and have secretly united to prepare to swallow us in one fell swoop!"

"These bastards, have they forgotten who used to risk their lives to rush into the encirclement to save them when they were besieged by the Normans?Since it is the Falcon Army's food ban, why don't they go to the Falcon Army and slash the butcher's knife at their own people" Hearing this, Bai Lingsuke's beautiful face suddenly turned pale, and he cursed,

Even if she is stupid, she knows that at this moment, the appearance of a combined army of other 4 forces on the border means something to the Sukh tribe with only 20,000 people, for the sake of food, these guys who are driven to a dead end will definitely not hesitate to raise the butcher's knife against the entire Sukh tribe, anyway, in the hearts of most Salanders, the meaning of the Black Forest is no different from that of prisoners,

Exterminate the filthy Black Forest, these creatures who are riddled with sin and filth, are not worthy of such a noble title as the Salanders,

Such a slogan was once spread among the southerners, and at that time the Sukhs still thought that the Normans were ghosts, but as time went by, some signs became clearer and clearer, and it was the biggest force in Zhisalan that spread this sentence, the son of Salander, Arantir, and this incident also caused the companions who had cooperated at the beginning to turn their faces.

Strictly speaking, the Black Forest can be regarded as the indigenous people of the Zhisaland region, most of them are the descendants of the exiled criminals, and their style is fierce, before the Normans invaded, the Black Forest was already a force that the Salander officials wanted to deal with quickly. But because of the complex terrain and the inability to find the base camp of the Black Forest, it has been fruitless many times.

But with the end of the Hunting War and the gradual departure of the refugees after stabilizing in the south, the location of the secret base that had been preserved in the Black Forest for more than 200 years was also revealed. It's like a huge treasure exposed to everyone's prying eyes.

An oasis deep in the desert, in the eyes of several forces in Zhisaland, the Black Forest is a no-match. But it must be eliminated, because the wilderness where the Black Forest is located is the best way to the south, and opening up the Black Forest is tantamount to finding a way to other areas from the encirclement of the Falcon Army, whether it is military significance or the food embargo that needs to be broken urgently, the Black Forest is undoubtedly the first to bear the brunt.

"What should we do then? Are we just waiting for death?" Realizing that he had fallen into such a situation, Bai Lingsuke was also a little anxious.

"You come with me!" said Grand Elder Suyanis gestured to her, leading the way in front of a tent and gesturing to her mysteriously

"Are you letting me in?" Lark Suke hesitantly opened the curtain of the tent and quickly slipped inside,...,

Full of brilliance, the sight in front of him made Bai Lingsuke take a deep breath of cold air, and saw that in this extremely ordinary-looking tent. A crystal lamp like a seven-star arch moon illuminates the entire tent and shines on the canvas of the tent. The tiny, round, familiar pale white sheen, like the stars in the night sky, undoubtedly indicates that the tent is strung together with thousands of the finest Salander pearls of the same size.

"Does the young patriarch still like this gift?"

A woman in a long purple dress turned around from the opposite side and said to her with a pretty smile, "I have long heard that the young patriarch has a preference for deep-sea pearls since he was a child, and this time I came in a hurry, my master specially asked me to choose this thousand-bead tent that originally belonged to King Salander when he traveled, and he was only qualified to use it as a gift. I hope the young patriarch doesn't push back!"

This woman in a purple dress is not extremely beautiful, but she has a stunning temperament, and her eyes are not only charming and moving, but also a kind of sharpness like lightning, only people who have been in the top position for a long time. The eyes that are possible

"Who is your master?Why did he give me such a gift?" Bai Lingsuke looked at the purple woman in front of him who chuckled, revealing the color of a captivating city, because of nervousness, the biting white jade-like teeth left a bloody mark on his lips, and asked in a condensed voice,

As a girl who grew up in the wilderness, she had never seen the vastness of the sea, and she could only know in her father's description that her ancestors were lords from the southern seashores, with such an unattainable longing,

Bailing Suke is like a demon, and he falls in love with the deep-sea pearl that embodies all the essence of the sea.

But deep-sea pearls are an extremely expensive luxury even in Salander, ordinary ones are worth dozens of gold coins on the market, like these deep-sea pearls that decorate tents now, from their daytime can still emit such a bright brilliance, these are really one in a thousand fine products, at least more than 100 gold on the market,

Such a tent, from the main pillar to the tent curtains around it, there are at least a thousand such top-grade pearls, if converted into gold coins, it is a staggering number of 100,000,

That is the huge wealth that the entire Sukh clan has been able to accumulate in ten years, no wonder even the Great Elder did not hesitate to stand on the side of this mysterious woman, no one can face such interests and be unmoved, let alone a tribe like the Sukh clan that has been burdened with a hundred years of crimes

"It doesn't matter who my master is, what matters is that he can help you save the Sukhs!

"The value of this gift represents not only sincerity, but also respect for the entire Suke clan, my master said, I believe that the person who can give such a valuable gift should be able to be trusted by the young patriarch of Bailing Suke!"

It seemed that he felt that what the woman in the purple dress said made sense, and Bailing Suke's excited face finally calmed down a little,

"Say, what do you want us Suk to do?" Bailing Suke said confusedly, "I admit that what you said makes sense, it is indeed very unnecessary to deceive a small tribe like Suke with a heavy gift of 100,000 gold coins, but the person who can take out such a heavy gift with a chuckle, this is really not a few people in the whole Salander, your master is not afraid of revealing his identity if he does this?"

"Expose your identity?hehe, the young patriarch is too worried!" The woman in the purple dress chuckled lightly before stopping her trembling body and said, "My master has never thought of concealing his identity, because with his strength, what's the point of not exposing it, the reason why I value the young patriarch so much is because my master thinks that the Sukh clan is a heroic tribe, and he is not too involved in this whirlpool, so he doesn't need to be confused with those rebellions, and he can be trusted!"

"Rebellion!" Bai Lingsuke's eyes lit up suddenly, and she looked at the mysterious woman in purple dress in front of her with a calm gaze, and the person who could use this word had undoubtedly identified herself.

Bai Ling Suke stared at the woman in the purple skirt and said word by word, "You are from the Falcon Empire!"

"You are very smart, I am indeed from the Falcon Empire" The woman in the purple dress smiled disapprerovingly, sat down on the wool cushion bench in the tent, and said, "My name is Sokutus Deran, the thirteenth deacon of the Falcon Empire Business Alliance Headquarters!

"Okay, even if you're right" Although Bai Lingsuke didn't want to admit it, she had to agree with this, she took a deep breath, her face turned slightly pale, and she was silent for a while before asking

"Then who is the master in your mouth? The only person who can be called the master by a character like you is probably the Falcon Majesty of the Falcon Empire! How can he fall in love with a small tribe like us? For a person like him, it is not as easy to crush us as it is to crush an ant! So I don't understand, what does he mean?"

"My master is not a brutal man as the outside world has said, on the contrary, he does not want too much blood to be shed in the south of Salander!

Sokutus Delan's voice stopped, she stood up, looked at the sky outside the tent and said, " In fact, Your Majesty has long paid attention to your existence, your geographical location and identity background are very special, you are at the intersection of the central and southern regions, but you are burdened with the fate of always being sinners, for hundreds of years, you have been the object of the destruction of the Kingdom of Salander, but in the invasion of the Normanders, you still did not hesitate to choose to side with Salander, your loyalty makes Your Majesty feel admired, and similarly, your situation also makes Your Majesty feel sympathy, you are the heroes who save the Salanders, not the goal that they must get rid ofโ€

"I don't understand what you mean?" Bai Ling Suke's face changed, the situation in front of him was indeed a little dangerous, but Bai Ling Su Ke still didn't believe that the southerners he had helped at the beginning would point the finger at him

"We have received accurate information, in three days, the 50,000 allied troops of the other four forces will be overwhelming, and the only one who can save your Sukh clan is His Majesty the Falcon!"

Sokutus Delan turned around and said to Bai Lingsuke, who was still holding a hint of luck, "There are only two paths you can choose now, one is to join His Majesty and become the hero of the rebellion in one fell swoop, and the other is to fight 50,000 allied troops until the city is broken and the whole clan is killed!

Su Ke Bailing's face was ugly and he hesitated for a while, and asked, "If I choose to join, how will you save us?" (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to (.) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support is my biggest motivation. )
