The Journey of the Rainbow Dragon
Chapter 546: Message from the Bingfeng Mountains
Encircled by the counter-encirclement and suppression campaign by the Centaur tribe, annihilation is the only outcome for the Wild Wolf mercenary group.
overnight
The news that the former Third Mercenary Regiment of Red Earth had been destroyed swept through the entire Red Earth Highlands with the evening breeze.
No one dared to provoke these big guys holding spears, bows and arrows and running on all fours.
The Centaur tribe, which was originally in a noisy camp due to the merger of many tribes, was completely integrated under the force of this battle, and its cohesion reached an unprecedented level.
Under the leadership of the only leader "Katz"
The original small tribe has gradually become the only super-large tribe of men and horses on the red earth highlands, and has even begun to build their own city!
Logically speaking
Knowing that a non-human intelligent race group of this size had appeared, the Red Legion should have sent troops to encircle and suppress them long ago.
However, Eugene Talloran, the commander of the Red Legion, seemed to be invisible to this group of people and allowed them to grow and develop.
He even explicitly prohibited the Red Legion from having any disputes with the centaurs, and allowed the centaurs to enter the Molten City openly to trade needed items, and they were treated in the same way as humans in the city.
This makes all forces somewhat puzzled.
Isn’t this putting horses at risk?
Many respected elderly people have visited the Red Legion for this matter, trying to persuade them to understand the seriousness of the matter.
But without exception, they were all turned away by Legion Commander Eugene.
Molten City
Red Legion garrison
The tall flame tower stands like a burning flagpole in the center of the entire camp.
This ancient building built seven hundred years ago is not only a spiritual symbol for the soldiers, but also a beacon in the camp, illuminating this vast land every night.
However, recently, there has always been some noise surrounding the Flame Tower.
In a corner of the camp, two soldiers wearing red light armor were whispering.
Suddenly, their conversation was interrupted by a shrill, angry cry from within the tower.
"You are playing with fire!"
An angry voice echoed in the tower:
"That group of people is already building their own city. If we don't solve them, the entire human race in Molten City will face a great threat!"
"Eugene! Eugene! Did you hear me or not!"
This shout seemed both urgent and helpless, as if a piece of advice that had been ignored for a long time was suddenly forced to be thrown out, but the listener still ignored it.
The commotion in the tower attracted the attention of the soldiers.
The two soldiers wearing red light armor quickly straightened their backs and quickly walked into the flame tower after receiving the order.
a moment later
One on each side, they carried an old man with a beard hanging down to his chest and gray hair out of the tower, and politely "asked him to leave" the camp.
Before leaving, the old man kept repeating words such as "Raising tigers will cause trouble" and "You will regret it".
If a well-informed person saw this old man’s face, he would definitely be unable to help but exclaim:
"The wise man Alta, who has disappeared for many years, appears in the Red Earth Highlands!"
Alta the Wise
In the past, the highly respected counselor of the Rose Kingdom, with his sharp tongue, once resolved a crisis in the war between the Rose Kingdom and the Frost Kingdom, and made great achievements for peace.
Although it was once glorious
But to the soldiers of the Red Legion, this old man was just another member of the "old man's group" who wanted to persuade their leader.
In the past few months, they could not count how many wise men and sages they had seen who were so confident and then returned disappointed.
Most of them didn't stay in the Flame Tower for long, and were eventually politely but firmly "invited" out by the group leader.
This became such a "routine operation" that some soldiers even began to enjoy it, betting in their spare time whether today's "wise men" could stay in the tower for a while longer.
Most of the soldiers sneered at the centaurs and horses that these wise men mentioned so earnestly.
"Just another stronger ant."
They discussed this in private.
The soldiers of the Red Legion have an almost fanatical trust in their legion commander.
They believe that no matter how powerful the centaurs are, the leader can always lead them to victory.
The Red Legion used to be almost invincible in the annual five-color legion competition, which made them confident in their combat effectiveness and even ignored the other four-color legions.
Just like the proud red dragon in the legend never puts other four-colored dragons in his eyes.
In the eyes of the soldiers of the Red Legion, any potential threat is nothing more than a paper tiger that will eventually be easily defeated by the Red Torrent.
However, what they don't know is.
At this moment, deep in the Flame Tower, the invincible legion commander in their hearts fell into another situation.
Sitting on a large iron chair, Eugene rubbed his brows with a helpless expression, trying to relieve his inner depression.
For this group of "little guys" who can't be beaten or scolded.
Eugene also felt deeply powerless when dealing with it.
These rude little guys are so rude when they spray, completely forgetting that they are also a 400-year-old man!
Would I not know about the threat from the centaurs?
The key is that there is a demigod dragon standing behind the opponent!
The worst thing is that he was forced to sign a master-servant contract by the other party.
To a certain extent, the centaurs and the Red Army are both dependents of the same master and are comrades-in-arms.
Although he wanted to tell everything frankly.
Thinking of the instructions given by the Dragon Lord before he left, Eugene could only rack his brains to maintain the current balance.
Anyway,
the day when everything is completely revealed is not far away.
Thinking of this, Eugene couldn't help but sigh.
He casually lit a brand new top-secret intelligence envelope.
The flames made a slight crackling sound as they devoured the paper.
In this brief firelight, you can vaguely see the content written on the letter, which is the information about the old king choosing Vivian as the next heir.
At the moment when the letter was completely burned.
"Bang!"
A dull collision came from the entrance of the Flame Tower.
Eugene frowned and his eyes instantly turned to the door.
"Captain! Captain! Captain!"
A hurried call came, and a scout in white leather armor rolled into the room in a mess.
His camouflage uniform was covered with gray-brown ice chips, which quickly melted under the high temperature of the Flame Tower, forming a large pool of water.
Eugene looked at the scene in front of him, shook his head slightly, and then began to scold:
"Lu Qi, didn't I tell you that you are not a soldier charging in front now, but an intern scout! You should be steady and careful in the future. Why are you still so clumsy!"
Although his words were reproachful, Eugene's actions were very gentle.
While pulling Lu Qi up from the ground, he patted the dust on his shoulders and asked with concern:
"I remember that you were transferred to the Bingfeng Mountains a few days ago to connect with the supply line of the Frost Legion?"
"What happened? Why are you so panicked?"
Hearing that the legion commander actually remembered his name and assignment, and even personally tidied up his appearance for him.
Scout Lu Qi's face flushed with excitement, and an indescribable emotion surged from the bottom of his heart, and the gratitude in his heart was hard to suppress.
But thinking of the urgent information he was going to convey, he tried to calm down his excitement and stammered:
"Regiment! Regiment! Commander, something bad has happened!"
"Ice! Ice! Ice!"
Eugene saw that he was trembling all over and had difficulty speaking, so he immediately reached out and patted Lu Qi's back, and scolded him with a teasing tone:
"Speak more clearly! You stutter and embarrass me!"
As Eugene patted, a gentle force passed through his palm into Lu Qi's body, instantly dispelling the coldness lurking in his body.
Eugene, who has lived for more than 400 years, knows very well.
Places like the Frozen Mountains are not places for people to stay!
Except for the Frost Legion composed of local natives stationed in the Frost Mountains all year round, and the Red Legion soldiers responsible for transporting supplies, almost no other adventurers dared to set foot in the harsh snowy mountains.
After all, the environment there is too harsh!
In the mountains covered with ice and snow all year round, there are countless mammoths, frost worms, white dragons, frost giants and other chilling creatures hidden, making this place more like a maze of death.
In addition to various ferocious polar creatures.
The extreme environment of more than minus 40 degrees all year round is the biggest killer in the entire frozen mountains!
Many soldiers of the Red Army will suffer from permanent frostbite within three years after arriving there.
It is not uncommon for soldiers to freeze to death because of carelessness.
It is for this reason that Eugene will implement the strategy of rotating the relevant docking personnel of the Red Army and the Frost Army every year.
And the scout Lu Qi was one of the members who was just sent to rotate with the veterans stationed in the Frost Mountains three months ago.
Eugene looked outside, then looked at Lu Qi with some doubts, and his tone was faintly worried:
"Tell me, why are you the only one back, where are the others?"
Lu Qi seemed to be awakened by this sentence, and the warmth in his body gradually restored his mind.
But when he saw Eugene's inquiring eyes, he couldn't help but feel a lump in his throat and choked up:
"All dead!"
"What!?"
Eugene's brows tightened, and a flash of uneasiness flashed through his heart.
He could feel that the despair contained in Lu Qi's words was not fake, and a bad premonition rose faintly in his heart.
On the other side
Lu Qi seemed to have his defenses pierced, and all his emotions at this moment were like a flood that broke through the dam.
His voice trembled with grief, and tears could not stop flowing down:
"In order to cover me out, my brothers all died under the claws of those damn white dragons..."
"White dragon?"
Eugene's brows were instantly locked, and his sturdy body slowly enveloped Lu Qi like a dark cloud, and he whispered:
"What happened? What happened to you, and where are the guys from the Frost Legion? Why didn't they come to support?"
A series of questions came out of Eugene's mouth calmly.
And Lu Qi looked even more painful after hearing these words, and the memories made him feel like he was falling into the abyss.
He suddenly hugged his head, his voice mixed with despair and fear:
"Crazy! They are all crazy!"
He took a step back tremblingly, as if trying to get rid of the nightmare in his heart:
"Boss! Those snow elves in the Frost Kingdom are all crazy!"
"They are crossing the border with the White Dragon Army and attacking us!"
"I saw with my own eyes that my brothers were torn off their armor by those beasts, chewed and swallowed alive, and their screams echoed in my ears! But I, I can't save them, I'm useless, I can only run, I..."
Hearing these words, Eugene's heart sank suddenly.
He grabbed the shoulders of Lu Qi, who was already going crazy, and tried to calm him down:
"Calm down! Don't let fear consume you!
"Tell me, why didn't the Frost Legion support you? And where is that guy Frost Moon? Why didn't I receive the warning signal?"
Hear the words
Lu Qi raised his head, the despair in his eyes almost overflowing,
"because."
He murmured in a hoarse voice:
"The Frost Legion has been completely wiped out!" (End of this chapter)
