Chapter 512 Green Wind City

"no way."

Jellal shook his head. He still had a headache looking at the map of Eli Hills in front of him.

What Aqil said at the meeting just now is indeed true, but he only slightly exaggerated the current shortage of supplies in the military camp.

As the minister in charge of the logistics of the Gordon Kingdom's army, Aqil, he has the most say in this regard. The other generals have no way to verify whether what he says is true.

Therefore, Jellal instructed Aqil to do this, but Aqil was a little worried that this would cause panic or even chaos in the entire army, so as not to cause chaos before the enemy took the bait.

"You also know the current situation in the kingdom. Although there is still some remaining power, it can no longer provide us with greater help here."

Jellal frowned slightly, his eyes remaining on the various documents in front of him.

"To be honest, if possible, I would rather go to the battlefield and fight like before, but"

Jellal shook his head slightly. As the commander of this army, he knew that his idea was really impossible.

Unless you are a legendary powerhouse, even a gold-level professional can hardly affect the outcome of the war between kingdoms.

Even if his strength is considered strong among gold-level professionals, it is far less effective than him sitting in the center to strengthen the soldiers' beliefs.

"Only now do I understand why my father asked me to stop my attack on the Carlo Kingdom."

"I really can't hold it any longer."

Jellal shook his head bitterly. Most people in the kingdom believed that he was the biggest contributor to all previous victories, but at that time he didn't have to think about other things at all and just focused on defeating the enemy.

It wasn't until he was arranged by the king to go to the Eli Hills that he truly realized that in addition to winning on the battlefield, there were more things that he needed to worry about in terms of winning wars and running the country.

Thinking about his father's earnest teachings before, but he never paid attention to them, Jellal now felt that it was not easy to rule a country.

I don’t know how my father’s thin body has been able to carry all this for so many years.

As the youngest child of King Gordon, Jellal is no longer a young man, but he has been obsessed with practicing with his teacher before, and did not really start to deal with these affairs until the war started.

The king loves him dearly, and the elder brothers also know the abilities of this little brother, and they have never competed with him for anything, not even for the throne of King of Gordon Kingdom.

This also made Jellal's life smooth sailing before. It wasn't until he faced the invasion of Archibald Kingdom and Paro Federation here in the Eli Hills that he really felt the difficulty.

"Your Highness, you have done your best."

Aqil looked at Jellal who looked tired and sighed.

During the fierce battle in the Eli Hills for more than half a year, Aqil witnessed with his own eyes that Jellal had matured from a high-spirited commander, and his prestige in the hearts of everyone was getting higher and higher.

Even this deliberate plan, although somewhat risky, was a last resort.

His Highness the Prince has tried his best to find a solution to the predicament before him, and Aqil also believes that the situation of Archibald Kingdom and Paro Federation is not much better. The only thing is to see who can persevere better.

"Do you think there will really be a traitor?"

After a moment of silence, Jellal asked Aqil.

"I don't know, and I haven't found any clues."

Aqil shook his head and then said:

"But this time, the Archibald Kingdom and the Paro Federation obviously got accurate information about their attack on our rear. Otherwise, our losses would not have been so heavy."

"Alas~"

Jellal sighed. Although he didn't want to believe it, Aqil, who was the minister of the kingdom, was right.

The possibility is quite high!

In short, this level of information may have been leaked by someone here just now.

It was precisely because of this that he acted in a play with Aqil just now.

On the one hand, I want to try to catch the possibility of a "traitor". After all, there is such important news as the Gordon Kingdom is about to withdraw. If there is a traitor, the Kingdom of Archibald and the Paro Federation must be informed.

On the other hand, by passing on such false information, he also wanted to try to see if he could lead the enemy into a trap that had been arranged in advance. He did not seek to directly win the war, but at least broke the current deadlock among the Gordon Kingdom's troops. .

"After you go back, tell Angus secretly and let him know about this plan."

Jellal thought for a while and said to Aqil.

"I understand, Your Highness."

Aqil was not surprised and bowed slightly and said.

If there is anyone in this army whom Prince Gerald trusts the most, it is Angus and Aqil.

Although Aqil has always been at odds with Angus, he has never doubted his loyalty.

As a close confidant of the old king, Angus has been leading the most elite army in the kingdom. Prince Gerald often asked Angus for advice.

Before, I was just worried that this guy would reveal his secret, so I didn't tell him. Now that the situation is like this, I will definitely not continue to hide it from him.

After all, Prince Jellal needs to sit in the center and cannot go into battle himself. Most things still need to be done by the legion commander.

"Let's do this for now. You will have to do the rest of the preparations, Aqil."

Jellal nodded slightly and continued to flip through the documents in front of him.

When he saw the report sent by the Lord of Green Wind City about the traces of the evil god believers in the city, his temples couldn't help but throbbed a few times.

Really, why are these damn guys here again?

Green Wind City,

At the intersection of the winding hills and plains, when the first ray of sunlight in the morning penetrates the clouds and gently sprinkles on Green Wind City, the densely packed city buildings seem to be awakened, flashing emerald colors.

This is not the effect of any special magic, but comes from a special stone produced in Green Wind City. This is the material that Green Wind City residents like to use to build roofs, and it is also the origin of the name of Green Wind City.

As a commercial city located on the edge of the Eli Hills, Green Wind City is naturally much larger than ordinary cities. However, because Green Wind City is not a border city, it has no solid walls and castles.

So when facing the invasion of the Archibald Kingdom and the Paro Federation, Prince Gerald did not choose to set up his base in Green Wind City, but chose to set up his base in the Eli Hills not far away.

Even so, the battlefield where the two sides fought was not far from Green Wind City. Green Wind City, which was originally prosperous and bustling with endless caravans, was now much more desolate.

But at the same time, because the war was approaching, more mercenary teams with different costumes appeared here.

In order to win the war, Prince Gerald not only recruited extraordinary professionals to join the Gordon Kingdom army, but also arranged for people to issue many war commissions and tasks to the mercenary guild in the name of the Gordon Kingdom, and the rewards were extremely generous.

Naturally, the attracted mercenaries all came to Green Wind City.

"Is this Green Wind City?"

Heimalou stood at the gate of the city, constantly gesturing at this magnificent city.

He was taking pictures with the built-in camera of the "Shenqi" game.

New map opened +1!

Blair on the side was not surprised. He was no longer surprised by some of Heimalou's weird behaviors.

In the process of crossing the Eli Hills to Green Wind City, many of the behaviors of this Heimalou brother were quite strange, and he was used to it.

For example, he slept so soundly that no matter how you called him, he couldn't be awakened, and even beating him didn't work. In the end, he suddenly woke up for no reason;

For example, he excitedly rushed up to the monster when he saw it, and didn't care whether he would be injured;

And in the face of Blair's questioning, Heimalou always acted as if it was natural, sometimes making Blair wonder if he was abnormal.

After being extremely carefully checked by the city guards and extorted a gold coin in the name of the city gate tax, Blair and Heimalou successfully entered the city.

At first, knowing that he had to pay a gold coin to get a small wooden sign representing his identity to enter the city, and it was only valid for seven days, Heimalou expressed considerable resistance.

Although he had just made a lot of money from Blair, for the thrifty Heimalou, such a waste was extremely shameful.

But when he saw those red-named guards with silver-level strength beat a traveling merchant in front of him, and took the man away and imprisoned him like a dead dog, Heimalou was still scared from the bottom of his heart.

He was not afraid of death, but his death rebirth point was in the Paro Federation, just like Benboerba and the others. If he died here, it would be a waste of time.

After entering the city, Blair said to Heimalou:

"Then let's separate here. Thanks to your help along the way."

"It's okay."

"You can find me if you have any questions!"

Heimalou nodded indifferently. The previous task had been completed, and Blair also gave him the reward.

In his eyes, Blair was no longer valuable. He said this just to be polite. What if he could get a task from Blair in the future?

After the two separated, Blair walked towards the market of Cuifeng City.

He had been to Cuifeng City when he traveled before, so he naturally knew the location of the market.

He brought a lot of things, which were all very scarce materials for the current Gordon Kingdom, so there was no need to worry about selling them.

However, because of the special nature of the storage ring, he planned to ask the price first, find a place to settle down, and then slowly sell them in batches.

In this way, he could get the greatest benefit without arousing suspicion from others.

The most dangerous time has come, so Blair naturally doesn't need this little time.

"I hope I can be luckier later!"

Blair shook his head and walked towards the east of the city.

On the other side, Heimalou was thinking about so many things.

First, he spent half a day to walk around Cuifeng City, and then unlocked some special achievements of Cuifeng City according to the strategy on the player forum, and then walked towards the direction of the Mercenary Guild.

Heimalou is a member of the scenery party among players. No matter where he goes, he must check in before doing other things.

"How strong must the production company of this "God of Revelation" game be? I haven't seen a similar place in so many cities."

"Could it be that they have to make a set of three-dimensional models for each city separately? That workload is too much, right?"

Heimalou said with emotion in his heart, which is also the reason why he likes the "God of Revelation" game.

He has never experienced such an exaggerated game world, it's like traveling in another world.

Not long after, Heimalou came to the Mercenary Guild in Cuifeng City according to the map, and walked in directly.

Unlike the deserted streets outside, the mercenary guild was bustling with activity.

The hall of the mercenary guild was bustling with people. Under the dim light, countless figures were swaying. The air was filled with a heavy smell of killing and blood, which was a unique sign of the approaching war.

What came into view were rows of rough wooden tables. The simple wooden wine glasses on the tables were filled with light yellow beer. The pure white foam flowed along the walls of the cups on the table. The wooden plates were filled with cut dark red ham and dark yellow cheese. It was simple but the best wine pairing for mercenaries.

The mercenaries sat together and drank beer in big gulps. The wine flowed down the corners of their mouths, wetting the damaged leather armor on their chests that had not been repaired yet. Their voices were rough and powerful. They talked about their application performance in completing the commissioned tasks, accompanied by exaggerated gestures, constantly emphasizing the thrilling battles they had experienced.

In the corner of the hall, the firelight reflected the faces of the mercenaries, who were boasting about their bravery with a smug smile.

One of them stood up suddenly, slapping the armor on his chest, making a "bang bang" sound, his voice was passionate and high-pitched:

"This time we received a commission, I killed ten soldiers of Archibald, it was a really exciting battle!"

The people around heard this, and someone laughed and said:

"Adair, your team only brought back ten left ears in total, you guys are probably taking all the credit for yourself."

Faced with other people's doubts, Adair's already drunken face became even redder, and he kept explaining something.

"The ones in our team are mine."

"My credit is the greatest!"

"What do you guys know."

The mercenaries around laughed and made a noise, and the atmosphere was extremely happy for a while.

And in this hustle and bustle, there were also some mercenaries sitting quietly aside, their eyes were deep and resolute, they exuded a real bloody smell, and they kept talking about something with their heads down.

Heimalou ignored the obviously drunken mercenaries. He glanced and saw a group of people wearing "unique" clothes gathered on one side of the tavern, so he quickly moved over.

"Hey, brother!"

Heimalou patted a man with a Mohawk in front of him and said with a smile:

"I just arrived. Are there any interesting tasks in Green Wind City recently?"

Mohawk turned around and looked at Heimalou, who was dressed in black, with a hint of understanding in his eyes.

"Hehe, to be honest, good brother, of course there is one!"

Mohawk waved his hand, and a task prompt appeared in front of Heimalou.
