Magical Strategist
Chapter 3 The Edge of Crisis
Zhenlong stood up reluctantly and walked slowly towards Zhenye's room.
Maya works in the security department of Pachi City and is tasked with guarding the mysterious tower in the southeast.
The Mysterious Tower is a light energy array created by the orc shaman during the last human-animal war to teleport soldiers.
There are 4 light energy arrays in total, distributed in the southeast, northwest and four corners of the human continent. Because this kind of tower is not physical, it cannot be dismantled unless the shaman kills it himself. So it must be guarded for safety reasons.
In addition, Zhenye also has to monitor the situation in the western cemetery, where the undead ghouls are active. Ghouls generally do not harass humans. They abide by the contract between the undead and the human race. The ghouls are responsible for the undead. Corpses are transported locally, but it is not ruled out that individual ghouls may disturb human life. These monsters still have to be wary.
"You brat, we're fighting again!" The voice came from Maya's room. Then there was a sound of things being thrown. It is not difficult to imagine that a bloody "massacre" was taking place there.
Piro thought secretly, brother, don't blame me for not helping you. Can't you tidy up your clothes or wash your face before going in? Are you looking for death?
After a while, the door was gently opened. I saw Zhenye pointing at Zhenlong's nose and saying harshly: "Do you still dare to fight in the future?"
The real dragon shook his head vigorously, his face was burning with pain, and the two lines of nosebleeds were particularly eye-catching.
Seeing Zhenye changing a set of clothes and walking out of the room.
The tall figure, doll-like face, and red wavy hair make Ma Ye look more like a doll.
Zhenye stared at Piro with a strange expression and said, "Hey, why are you back?"
"Haha, yes, yes. I, I... why did I come back? I..." Piro became incoherent as soon as he saw Zhen Ye. In fact, he wanted to ask Zhenye if she would agree to the request in the letter.
Seeing that Piro was very embarrassed, Aude changed the topic and said: "Okay, okay, everyone is here, let's eat."
At this time they seemed to have overlooked someone.
The real dragon was huddled in the corner, seemingly thinking about something. Every time he was beaten by his sister, he would think of his dead mother.
Because every time Maya beats him, she will say the same thing: The last thing my mother wants to see is that her compatriots kill each other. When he was sad, he would also think of the Snow White Princess Lina in his heart, and how he wished Lina could be by his side to comfort him at this time. But the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Snow White deserves to be a prince, and someone with poor grades and average family conditions like him will definitely not have a chance. At this time, the real dragon has mixed feelings, and various pictures and ideas arise spontaneously.
"Dragon..." Zhenye came to Zhenlong and called his name gently. Lille knew that Maya was going to repeat what she had said more than a hundred times: "I know you have many unspeakable secrets, but you are never allowed to fight with others! The last thing my mother wants to see is compatriots fighting with each other. Kill each other. Let’s not let her worry, okay? You are a man, why are you still crying? It’s strange that you don’t laugh when Miss Lina sees it!”
Helpless, if you don't obey, if you dare to be a little more stubborn, fists and slaps will definitely be today's dinner. The real dragon nodded. He still couldn't figure out why his mother hated him for fighting with others. But there was a shadow deep in his heart - his mother's death was not accidental, because in addition to the burnt body, there were many stab wounds, which he saw with his own eyes. "Sister, I..."
"What's wrong?" Maya blinked her eyes.
"How did my mother die? Can you tell me?" Zhenlong longed to know the truth about his mother's death, but every time he asked, he would always get a sharp rebuke from his father.
"Shut up!" Odd suddenly said angrily.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
The real dragon lowered his head and knew that he had said the wrong thing again. Somehow, whenever his mother was mentioned, Odd, who had always been a mild-mannered man, would get angry.
Piro quickly relieved his anger, smiled and said, "What's wrong with everyone? We're eating, and the dishes are cold."
Odd snorted, his gentle eyes reflecting endless sadness and grief.
"Hey, scoundrel! Please don't write such disgusting things in the future, okay? If you want to write, just write something meaningful. Fortunately, you are still the top student in Bordeaux. Bah!" Maya looked at Piro and said.
"Huh?" Piro opened his mouth wide. Don't know what to say.
"Pillow, my son, seeing that you are in a daze, could it be that you have detected important information?" Odd, who has always been good at observing words and expressions, asked.
Piro put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked at Zhenlong's childish face. He seemed to have something to say but hesitated. He just took out three copper coins from his pocket and handed them to Zhenlong, saying: "Brother, help me. I’m busy, go buy a bottle of wine, okay?”
What kind of wine can be bought with three copper coins? Zhenlong was in a bad mood just after being beaten. He said angrily: "Why don't you go and grab it? You are still working for intelligence. The price of wine has already gone up. At least 6 coins. Take it." Here comes the money!”
Piro made a gloomy look, took out three more copper coins from his pocket and handed them over.
Zhenlong took the money and said without any intention of going out, "I said..."
"What's wrong!" Piro said angrily.
"I've worked so hard to run errands for you, why don't you give me some travel expenses? Unfortunately for you, you are still an official. You eat and drink for free every month and get so much salary. You don't even want to give a tip. If you don't give a tip, forget it. Why don't you ask for help with this attitude?" After speaking, he spread his hands and continued to ask for money.
"You...you're awesome!" Piro gritted his teeth. If he hadn't kept some gentlemanly manners in front of Zhenye, he would have swore a lot and took back "you fucking". He dug into his trouser pocket again, and this time he actually took out a silver coin and handed it over, "Take it! If you are bullied by others in the future, don't expect me to stand up for you again!" Piro said harshly.
The real dragon took the silver coin, and his face, which had been gloomy just now, immediately showed its joy when he saw it before and after. He thought that now that he had made a fortune, he would not have to worry about having no pocket money next week.
Obviously the real dragon didn't understand Piro's intention, because Piro never drank, so it was natural that he didn't know the price of wine.
Zhenye is a sensitive person. When she saw that Piro deliberately moved his brother away, she asked, "Why are you so mysterious? Tell me, what's the big deal that makes the famous "Soul Eater Piro" so nervous?"
"This news may be true. No matter what, the mayor must be notified as soon as possible. Oh, I want to say that in four days, the mysterious tower in Patch City will resonate. I can't say it because the real dragon is here, because I'm afraid this brat will control it. Don't shut up and run out to promote it." Pirro finally told the truth.
"What! What did you say??" Maya shouted in surprise, her expression changing 180 degrees.
"Yesterday, I accidentally followed two beast shamans when I was on a mission. Although I am not very proficient in beast language, I can still understand a few sentences. They said: Four days later at 8 o'clock in the morning, the prophet will personally command the North Tower. Resonance, the operation codename is "Dawn", the secret index is high-level secret, the number of people in the operation is about 300, all of them are beast soldiers carefully selected by the prophet." Piro explained.
"Breaking Dawn? Didn't you say the reason for the resonance?" Zhenye asked.
Piro shook his head and said, "No."
"How did you become an intelligence specialist? Why didn't you listen clearly? Then did you report this situation to your superiors, no, to the mayor?"
Piro shook his head violently again and said, "I rushed back so fast that I didn't even have time to drink. Do you think I have time to report?"
Zhenye stopped talking and just sat blankly on the chair...
Odd said with a gloomy face: "Oh God, this is a big deal. The Mysterious Tower has not resonated for hundreds of years! Besides, Zhenye has been watching every day and found nothing unusual. Could it be that you heard wrong?"
"Absolutely true!"
Zhenye continued: "But I don't understand why the orc lair is suddenly so interested in Patch City and sends troops all the way here. Besides, the Resonance Mystery Tower uses corpses to pave the way. I know the Mystery Tower better. Its upper limit of teleporting soldiers is 500. Using the Mystic Tower to teleport soldiers, each teleported person requires the blood of 1 people as a sacrifice. In other words, if 100 people are sent over, the Orcs will have to sacrifice people for no reason. What is this? why?"
Piro said, "I'm also wondering, God knows what the old fox, the prophet, is up to."
"Most of the young people in Pachi City have been recruited to fight on the front line. Besides, we are far away from the war, and the country will not send heavy troops to guard it. There are only 500 regular troops and 6 retired veterans left behind, plus your Security Department and Intelligence Department. There are hundreds of people. If the opponent is really 300 selected elite beast soldiers, we are afraid... God, please bless us." After saying that, Odd made a prayer.
Piro nodded in approval, and then said, "We can't discuss anything now. We'll talk about it after the report tomorrow. By the way, Dad, please be sure not to leak this matter to avoid causing panic."
"understood."
The three of them were silent for a while, no one spoke, each was thinking about their own thoughts. Seeing that the dishes on the table were no longer hot, Aude broke the silence and said, "It's strange, Long has been out buying wine for almost an hour, why hasn't he come back yet?"
"Don't worry, this brat will probably go to the Honghong Tavern to buy wine." Maya replied.
"Oh my god, isn't there a tavern next door to our house? Why come so far?" Aude was confused, because the Honghong tavern is in the west of the city, and it takes at least an hour to walk there.
"Because he said the wine next door is not fresh!" Maya said.
"What kind of knowledge is this? How can the wine be stale?" Odd became more and more confused as he listened.
Zhenye smiled and said: "Oh, dad, don't ask, you won't understand. Zhenlong is 15 years old and a man. Forget it, we don't have to wait for him, we can continue to eat Ours, whether he will come back tonight is still a question."
"Not coming back? Could it be that there are evening classes in the school again? But he is a day student, how can he not go home?" Ode is a conservative man, and his conservative ideas are far from satisfactory to the actual situation.
