Release that Witch - Chapter 405
[Chapter 398 Doubt]
“That’s not necessarily true,” Agatha shook her head. “According to the experience of the second battle of divine will, if they want to investigate the situation of human towns, their actions should not be so random.”
“What do you mean?” the prince asked quickly.
“In order to bring the news back, such a reconnaissance usually consists of two to three teams, most of which are equipped with evil beast mounts, and they will not be too far apart, at least within the range of the spear-throwing madman.” She said slowly “In order to annihilate these teams, the federation often dispatches flying witches to go around the rear to intercept them, and dispatches double the number of Holy Blessed Warriors to arrest them from the front. At the end of the war, the size of the reconnaissance team is getting bigger and bigger, and there will even be psychological attacks. Horrors and flying devils. There’s no reason why now, they just send two unresponsive ordinary madmen to investigate, and their outfits are really… a bit shabby.”
“Do the devils think that Border Town has no They don’t need to spend a lot of effort to check, just send two people randomly?” Ashes said.
“It doesn’t make sense,” Agatha thought for a while, and finally denied it. “In the era of the Federation, no matter how small a town is, as long as it is on the border, there must be witches stationed there. It is impossible for the devil to understand these four hundred towns. The human world has changed over the past few years, so the investigation should still be carried out according to the arrangement during the second battle of divine will.”
“You mean…they didn’t deliberately investigate the town, but happened to happen?” Roland couldn’t help but I feel relieved.
“It’s very possible,” she frowned, as if she was thinking about something, “I’m afraid the devils don’t know that there are human towns here, they just explore the situation around their camp. The main enemies they may encounter are evil beasts, so Instead of carrying the power-gathering magic stone that cannot be used continuously, that is, throwing a spear, I chose the lightning stone, which is more convenient to attack.”
“Wait…” Roland was stunned, “You mean the devil’s camp?”
“Of course, otherwise How could they come here from thousands of miles away,” Agatha said logically, “Only after establishing a stronghold on the Fertile Plain, can the devil use it as a springboard to go to the wild land… Oh, I forgot that it should be called the Big Four now.” kingdom.”
Hell, that’s the big deal, okay?
The enemy took pictures of the base at the door of your house, how will you live in the future?
The prince stared and asked, “A camp like the one behind the snow-capped mountains?”
“Almost, during times of war, an outpost would have at least several mist storage towers to store the red mist, plus one or two hundred devils stationed there,” Agatha nodded. “However, considering that the red moon has not yet come, it is unlikely that they will build a new high tower fortress on the Fertile Plain, and the transportation of the red mist is also very inconvenient, so the scale of the camp should not be large.”
“What are you going to do?” Tilly looked at Roland worriedly.
“Find the camp first, if it really exists,” he paused, “then… get rid of it.”
“A decisive choice,” Ashes said with a raised corner of his mouth, “this is the decision a lord would make. Don’t worry , we will also help you.”
If Agatha’s judgment is correct, the devil will not be able to extend its tentacles to the entire Fertile Plain before the third battle of divine will begins.
So after pulling out the strongholds near the western border, at least a few years of peace can be exchanged, even if the other party wants to send troops to retaliate, they can’t do it.
Of course, this is not without risk. The other party will at least know that there are a group of humans stationed in the east of the Impassable Forest, and they have the ability to actively attack the devil.
However, if the camp is allowed to expand, it will only bring more trouble to itself.
After the disappearance of the first batch of investigators, they are likely to send more people, and the exposure of Border Town will happen sooner or later.
And as the stronghold gets bigger and bigger, there will only be more and more devils. After the evil month is over, it will be a bit of a waste to deal with the enemies who come and harass at any time. How to complete the planned spring offensive?
After Roland returned to the office, he immediately called Lightning and Maggie and explained the matter.
“Remember, you must not fight the devil without authorization this time. Return immediately after finding the camp. They may have flying beasts, so protecting your own safety is the top priority.”
“Yes!”
“Goo!”
He paused for a moment, then added, “If you can successfully find the target, the next week’s dessert will be ice cream bread.”
Maggie stretched her neck straight, “Leave it to us!”
…
Three days later, Roland got In the return of Lightning, in the wild land about 130 kilometers away from Border Town, a place suspected of being a devil’s camp was discovered.
After marking the approximate location on the map, he noticed that this location was just in front of the traveling route of the Mutual Aid Society, less than ten kilometers away from the place where the Mutual Aid Society encountered the devil.
“Why is it suspected?” He asked Lightning, “Did you see the black stone tower?” The
little girl shook her head with a strange expression, “I only saw a…wreckage.”
“What?
” The destroyed fence, and…the huge hole,” she rubbed her forehead, “is the same as what I saw when I found the ruins of Sister Agatha. I didn’t continue to track it down, I just wandered around in the wreckage of the camp Came back after two laps.”
Another burrow?
Roland was stunned. Could it be that there was also a huge reptile in this hole?
If it was the reptiles that devoured the ruins stone tower last time, what about this time… it also took away the devil camp?
Between the two things, did I miss any important information?
He shook his head, temporarily suppressing the doubts floating in his mind, “Besides that, did you find anything else?”
“No…the whole camp is empty, UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com I didn’t see it.”
“I didn’t find the shiny magic stone either!” Maggie added.
“I see,” Roland quickly made an arrangement after thinking for a moment. He looked at the little white-haired girl, “You take Nightingale and Soraya to this place first, draw all the scenes on the scene, and then take Nightingale and Sylvie, check to see if there is anything missing.”
“Why don’t you let Soraya and Sylvie go directly?” Lightning asked.
“In case of encountering a devil’s flying beast, Maggie can’t get rid of the other party.” Roland explained simply, “In this case, Nightingale can use the mist to cover the witch to escape the other party’s pursuit, and you can just speed up and leave in the air.”
…
Soraya’s “photo” was quickly placed in front of Roland.
Just as Lightning said, there was a big hole about five or six meters in diameter in the center of the crumbling fence, and the surrounding snow and mud were mixed together, as if it had been stirred by something.
Fragmented black stones were scattered aside, most of which were ground into the soil, and no doubt only a huge creature could cause such damage.
Sylvie’s discovery made him feel even more uneasy. The underground passage was heading towards the mountains along the snow mountain line, which was exactly in the same direction as the underground caves that appeared in the ruins of the hidden forest.
They all point to the same location.
