Chapter 426 I guessed that
Davian thought for a moment and planned to get through to Masno's side to collect the information and see if all the ratmen who had fled to the north had disappeared.
After a while, the magic frequency resonated, and Masno's magnetic low voice came from the magic stone, "What happened?" "Did the
mice leading to Slanwupeck disappear?" "
In fact, I just We killed some rats, but the number was smaller than expected."
Davian frowned, it made no sense that there were rats around Slanwupek, but not on the road to Itaza.
"We haven't encountered a single mouse here. I feel like something might be going on."
The other side of the Sorcerer's Stone paused for a moment, seeming to consider how to handle this matter.
"Sven and Rogier are on standby now. They are prepared to handle emergencies. I will ask them to take the dragon to your location." Although Masnot didn't want to use the privileges of the champion warrior, But if something unexpected happens, it’s best to get a layer of insurance.
"Well, I need some manpower to take charge of reconnaissance operations." Davian nodded imperceptibly, hung up the magic communication, and sighed under Augsger's puzzled eyes.
The second-ranking magic swordsman asked curiously, "Don't you still want to see the dragon troops joining?"
Davian, who was walking alongside him, said that was not the case, "That's not true, every dragon is Caledor. The most important force is that with the addition of two giant dragons, both military morale and actions will be much more stable." "It's
just a pity that I don't have a dragon partner, so I'm still running on the ground on horseback." Davian shrugged, The relaxed tone was full of helplessness. Originally, after the Battle of Fennoir Plains, there were still a few dragons that had not found their companions. However, he and the prince ran away to the old world, and when they came back, they found that only Ingersos and the Star Dragon were left. .
Davian was so angry when he thought about that old naughty boy who stole so many things from him.
Although Ogusge wanted to say that if there were no dragons, there would still be gryphons, but after thinking about it, Caledor did not have a gryphon knight. Maybe even if he found a precious gryphon to give him, he would be full of disdain. of rejection.
"Well, it seems you have to wait a little longer. I'm also curious about what it's like for a magic swordsman to have a dragon partner." "It
may take a long time." Davian sighed, and the dragon fell asleep Waking up is not an easy thing, and occasionally one or two will be swarmed by dragon princes after they wake up.
My position determines that I cannot stay in Caledor all the time. When I return to Ulthuan, I will probably go to Saffre as an important figure in the exchanges between the two countries. I can only wait for the legendary dragon horn to be brought back from the Eight Peaks Mountain to think about this. thing.
However, from the perspective of Belegar, whom I had seen before in the Great Holy War, this matter is probably a bit suspenseful.
"Let's not talk about the dragon thing, why do you think the rat man is in this situation?" Davian asked Augsig. He still has basic respect for this famous magic swordsman, otherwise he would not You can safely let him lead a detachment.
"It's hard to say, but based on my guess, if all the Skaven have not disappeared in the north, there must be an important goal. The most likely possibility is to stop Slanwupek's coalition forces and launch a surprise attack on Itaza." Ogg Si Ge expressed an idea, but he might think that this idea was a bit unrealistic, and continued to explain, "But the possible success can only be said to be minimal. The defense lines around the Sky City have blocked most of the area. If you want to Let a large army arrive at Itaza without anyone noticing, unless they fall from the sky." From the sky?
Davian noticed these words, and suddenly an impossible possibility appeared in his heart. He unfolded the map stuffed in the armor, pointed at Itaza's position and said, "The City in the Sky stopped Pestilen." , Tyrion's navy stopped most of the rat fleet coming to Lustria from the old world, but is there a possibility that these rat men bypassed our two lines of defense and came from Sotek's Ridge? Enter Itaza from the west."
"But if that's the case, why did the rat people disappear on the way between Sky City and Itaza? They should be used as cannon fodder to stop us." Augsger raised a doubt , this is a bit unreasonable no matter how you think about it. If you want to attack Itaza by surprise, you must block the roads in the three directions of Sky City, Mist City, and Moon City. Otherwise, if you don’t break through it in a short time, it will be just a useless effort. .
"But if the Ratman's goal is not to break through Itaza, but to get something from it, or send something in, as long as this goal is achieved, it doesn't matter how many people die?" Cold sweat began to appear on Davian's forehead. They were all on the front lines preparing for a decisive battle, but they found out that their home had been stolen. Why fight? The lizardmen could just wait until they were finished.
"Plague!"
The two of them said what they were thinking of in unison. The reason for the gradual decline of the lizard people was that the incubation pools were contaminated and abandoned. Itaza must have the largest and most important incubation pool of the lizard people. If there are only one or two The Plague Monk successfully entered it, allowing his plot to succeed, and the war may have been in vain.
"Prepare a rush march and ask the dragon lord to send follow-up troops to Itaza, no." Davian immediately rejected the order. If it is as expected, the rat people plan to launch a surprise attack on Itaza, then they will definitely be on the front line. Preparing for a decisive battle, Sky City does not lack combat effectiveness, but it cannot be dispatched at will, otherwise the war situation will be reversed.
Davian chose an idea that he had never thought of, and used the ancient holy plaque he had obtained in Hesiota to contact the Caledor personnel in the City of the Sun. "I am
Davian. You guys go to Maz immediately." Lord Damudi, I have something important to tell him."
"Yes."
After a while, a somewhat acknowledging voice entered Davian's mind, "Elf cub, what's the matter?"
"The rat may be interested in Yi. Taza is launching a surprise attack, and I need your help."
Huh?
Master Ma was stunned in his mind. This matter did not seem to appear in the astrological predictions. Out of consideration for the importance of Itaza, he still asked Davian patiently, "Elf cub, your basis."
"There is not a single rat from the Sky City to Itaza. Although we don't know the specific situation at Seti Post, I think they must have detected the movement of some rats." Davian planned to use Master Ma. As a source of intelligence speculation, Seti Outpost was a lizardman stronghold west of Sotek's Ridge. Caledor had no contact with it and had to ask Master Ma to find out if there were any traces of rats there.
After a while, Master Ma's deep voice entered Davian's mind again, "Elven cub, continue your business. If necessary, I will arrive at Itaza." After finishing speaking, Master Ma hung up unilaterally, leaving
only Davian was ordered to think about how to deal with this matter alone. He must tell the prince the news and let him prepare for a decisive battle in advance.
