Chapter 208 Return to the temporary residence in the city
Assisting the fire burning around, Shaoko discovered a cavalry team of three thousand people, only hundreds of people here, only one of the three knights was present, and the other two were still missing. The knight who sent the signal sat on the monster with a pale face. Not only was the spear in his hand gone, but the thick armor on his body disappeared, and the upper body covered with scars was blown by the cold wind. However, the shrinking officer on the side was not too embarrassed, but the already dirty military uniform was even dirtier. However, there were many fewer Blizzard soldiers around him.
After seeing the mage appear, the vulgar officer tried hard to pull the corners of his mouth, trying to express his previous neurological state, but he was unable to do it. The knight nodded slightly to Shaoko and signaled him to wait aside.
Shaoke did not say much, but felt the place where the mages fought. After feeling that the mages left here, he removed the protective spells on his body, tightened his cloak and stood aside waiting for the others to return.
As time went by, scattered cavalrymen came to the assembly point one after another, and then a knight returned. The knight seemed to have not suffered any harm except for his difficult face. The one who followed him back was a cavalry of hundreds of people, and these cavalrymen were not injured either. This phenomenon relieved the knight who sent the signal on the side, and he felt that the situation of another knight should not be bad.
However, after the team waited for nearly half of the magic, Shaoke once again detected the situation around him. However, he no longer felt any existence with a lot of fighting spirit. This made the knight's face look very ugly. Because based on this situation, it was impossible for another knight to exist in this world.
"Leave here." The despicable officer who had been silent for a long time suddenly issued an order. However, this order made the two knights very resistant. They wanted to send the cavalry to search the woods. If the knight was injured, they could still rescue him. Faced with the strong demands of the two knights, the despicable officer finally promised this request. After this period of cultivation, the very uneasy cavalry had calmed down a lot.
Under the military command, the cavalry rushed into the woods on both sides and began a quick search. Fortunately, the fires had gradually gone out, so they did not cause much trouble to the search work. After nearly half of the magic search, the cavalry brought back some of the few seriously injured companions, and there was no other harvest. The other knight was not seen at all. According to the cavalry's guidance, except for seeing a large number of deep pits and burning traces of flames on the route of the knight's escape, there was no harvest at all.
The seriously injured cavalry were killed by their companions, because the drugs distributed by the military headquarters could not treat large-scale rupture of internal organs and the lack of such wounds on a large scale. In the face of the future, not only would they not be able to go to battle to kill the enemy, but they also lost the reality of being an ordinary person, the cavalry made this request readily.
The team was on the road once, but it was no longer as joy as it came. Instead, it hovered endlessly and heavily on everyone. Fortunately, the wounded people who could persevere did not delay the speed of the march for too long. Therefore, after two days of entry, everyone returned to the guarded city again.
Although some situations were learned from the merchants on the road, the current situation of the city still surprised Shaoke. The large section of the city wall disappeared, replaced by countless deep pits, and countless residents were busy in the snow, carrying away the dead bodies, or cleaning the roads. The situation in the city looked even worse. Large areas of houses disappeared, one by one, either frozen areas or areas smashed by huge stones. All of this surprised the mage and several other senior officials. They did not expect the city to be damaged so severely.
The soldiers patrolling around quickly reported to the Legion Commander that Shaoko and his team returned. Therefore, the Legion Commander quickly issued a notice to let Shaoko and several officers on the ground go to see him. The small castle disappeared. Only a dark deep hole was left on the ground. The temporary residence of the Legion Commander was on the side of the deep hole. There were some simple wooden houses built on the logs.
"Welcome to you back." The commander of the legion took a look at the missing one of the knights. His face looked even worse, but he quickly adjusted his state and began to ask in detail what happened on the road.
"Some top-level mages fight with the warriors to cause land consequences." A knight was straight and etiquette, and then answered the question of the Legion Commander with certainty. Then the Legion Commander asked some other questions. Shaoko and others answered them one by one.
After the Legion Commander's inquiry was over, when the knights were about to leave, Shaoko mentioned that a team encountered a very fast situation. "Legion Commander. While we were on our mission, a group of soldiers from the Russian Empire dressed up robbers and attacked us.
"After saying that, see the army
After listening to the explanation, Shaoke began to say in more detail about the attack. Finally, he mentioned that the Duke lord provided the land information.
After listening to Shaoke's explanation, the Legion Commander frowned tightly, and his thick hands kept swimming on the saber around his waist. He didn't close his eyes and thought about something, and finally said: "Well! Master Xueye, thank you for the news. After receiving your reward, please go back to the mage camp to rest for a while! I think you need a rest now." After saying that, he signaled the two knights and the serious and despicable officer to stay here, and scolded them when Shaoke turned around and left, because this news was missed by them who had been specially trained. This result disappointed the Legion Commander.
Shaoke didn't care much about what was happening behind him. According to the instructions of the Legion Commander, he quickly found the temporary garrison of the mages. On an empty flat ground, dozens of large houses were erected with large logs. The roofs were not only covered with a thick layer of soil, but also some turf was spread on it in detail by the builders to prevent the snow from melting and flowing into the house.
After asking a warrior who was repairing the gaps in such a simple house, Shaoko soon came to the area where female professions lived. What he was worried about did not happen. Although he did not see the female mage Roman and several other mages, he met a strange female mage who had just left the room. After questioning, the female mage told Shaoko everything she knew. It turned out that Roman mages and the others were not injured, and most of the mages were not injured at all. Only a mage camp in the north suffered serious damage. However, the mages were not injured at all. The main reason was that some second-level and third-level mages were killed by the aftermath of the battle.
After learning that the mages were working, Shaoke lived in a simple house just built under the leadership of a soldier. Fortunately, the firewood here was enough to burn, so although some gaps were not blocked by soil and animal skins, the house was still very warm with the support of a large amount of firewood. Not long after, there were tents brought by several soldiers and small tents that completely blocked the invasion of the cold wind after covering the wooden beds and fire pits.
Shaoko started to rest in this strange house, because not long after the sudden battle, the several large vortexes that had been hovering in his meditation space disappeared, which made him breathe temporarily. By asking the sixth-level mage, he learned that the low-level mages and warriors would not have this condition after taking the medicine, because the seventh-level mages had no ability to absorb the medicine effects. The special situation that happened to him had to make him wonder if it was because of the silver light in the meditation space that the medicine effects were fully exerted.
After taking the fourth-level medicines made, Shaoke began to sleep. He had not been sleeping like this for a long time. Therefore, after lying in bed, all his past alertness disappeared. Fortunately, it was a military camp here. If he had not encountered the battle of those top-level pros, he would not have been hurt. Even though the situation here seemed very bad, under the mobilization of the legion commander, the soldiers were still carrying out their work in an orderly manner.
It took half a day for Shaoke to wake up. The firewood in the fire pit was about to be extinguished. After enduring the soreness on his body and adding firewood, the mage began to move his body according to the previous exercise method to drive away the soreness on his body. Then after checking the sky outside, he returned to the room and started his homework. As for the work of helping the city rebuilding, it was not something he could do now.
After all, there are enough professionals here to do this kind of work.
After pulling off the white cloth covered on the writing table temporarily, Shaoke took the casting record and began to record what happened in the past few days. Finally, he tried to describe the fluctuations of the advanced spells he felt that day in Chinese to facilitate future reading and memory.
We have mentioned many times that most of the life of the mages is boring. Looking through magic books and memorizing spell structures, reciting spells and handprints, as well as meditation and other work, constitutes the daily life of the mages. However, Shaoke added the work of copying books this time. He wanted to copy enough copies of the book brought from the death garrison in one year to exchange with the sixth-level female mage as the fruit of medicine.
However, Shaoke also doubted whether the battle between the top-level mages would destroy the small city? Thinking of this, he quickly dispelled the very ridiculous idea. After all, based on the information he obtained, it is speculated that the small city has existed for tens of thousands of years. If such an existence can be destroyed, perhaps the empire would not have set up such a precious strategic location in the border areas tens of thousands of years ago.
