Transcendent Noble - Chapter 862

Towards evening, Todd and the red wolf returned to the thatched cottage. Rogers saw that their faces were not good-looking, and the red wolf’s eyes floated disorderly. He was obviously frightened. Rogers was curious about what the two guys met. Unfortunately, he could not speak Assyrian well. He had to close his mouth and silently take the stolen food and clothes from the red wolf, as well as a horned lizard cub in a cage.

Commander Todd made a rule for the three member team: in the main city of Assyria, you can pretend to be mute, but you must not use human tongues!

Human language itself will bring great risks to the investigation team. Rogers was a good boy who obeyed the rules. Todd asked him to act dumb. He never spoke. Todd would not punish him if he slipped his tongue, but the lives of the two Assyrian female slaves could not be saved.

Rogers, born as a mountain hunter, is not a good man. He just doesn’t want others to die because of his mistakes.

Todd’s heart was as iron as a stone. He had no principles except to be loyal to his highness Randall to prove his nobility. If two insignificant Assyrian female slaves need to be silenced, he will naturally kill each other. Before that, he didn’t have to consider how much the Assyrian female slaves could hear. He directly explained to Rogers in Assyrian: “we just went to the temple pyramid in the upper urban area and saw a giant snake composed of black smoke perched on the platform of the temple. Its body size was at least twice the size of the swamp giant, swallowing that ‘messenger’.”

“… without the messenger, we are in trouble now.”

Todd was angry and irritable. The wizard imosen acted without authorization. It’s hard to say whether he let the investigation team be exposed, but the terrible strange snake ate the beaked bird Messenger, and the connection between the investigation team and the commander of the army was broken. The actions of both sides can no longer cooperate with each other.

Rogers is still imagining what a giant snake twice as big as a swamp giant snake looks like? The giant lizard in the swamp is 15 to 20 meters long and thicker than a bucket. The giant snake is twice as big as the swamp giant, that is, a monster more than 30 meters long and as thick as a water tank. If you hang it up, it will almost catch up with the height of the castle in Pinghu Town.

How could there be such a big snake?

Rogers didn’t understand Assyrian, ignored Todd’s description of “black smoke”, and thought that the two companions might have been dazzled.

The red wolf was really frightened. The black smoke giant snake coiled around the upper platform of the gold tower. It raised its head and puffed the black smoke, as if it were a monster in a nightmare, which brought great pressure to his heart. The red wolf has a keen mind. If it’s not a myth that the three headed lizard poltanos is entrenched in his heart, the sudden black smoke giant snake will cause irreparable spiritual damage to him.

If the red wolf did not practice the boltanos secret method, his strength would certainly not reach the silver level. Now he has to worry about the situation of wizard imosen. He can’t help but say with worry: “the messenger must feel bad if he is killed… What shall we do if something goes wrong there?”

In fact, Todd can probably guess the details of the black smoke giant snake. He saw the black wolf and porcupine summoned by the animal spirit witch doctor with his own eyes. Those supernatural creatures like ghosts are also composed of black smoke. They can change their form between virtual and real. Although it is difficult to deal with, they are not invincible. At least if they bear enough damage, they will become black smoke and return to the witch doctor’s body.

However, compared with the power of the black smoke giant snake, the black wolf and porcupine are too small. Correspondingly, the witch doctor who manipulated the black smoke giant snake must be a powerful caster, perhaps the witch doctor queen herself.

No matter who the legendary witch doctor is, with him guarding the temple, bertina is likely to be locked up in the temple, and the difficulty of Randall’s expedition to rescue bertina has increased sharply. Todd estimated that the horned lizard placed in the burial pit by imosen alone was unlikely to defeat the black smoke giant snake. It would be similar to Philip II in his heyday, but imosen spent more than two years cultivating Philip II, and the alienated violent bear in his hand is far less powerful than Philip II.

In a word, this is very important information. On his way back, Todd began to plan two things. First, he had more detailed information, including investigating the identity and ability of the legendary witch doctor, and asked Lord Nelson and Mrs. Charlotte to find a way to transfer him out of the city; Second, the investigation team must re-establish a communication channel with Lord Nelson as soon as possible, otherwise the intelligence can not be transmitted in time, and it is useless to investigate the intelligence clearly.

Todd bent down, stared at the old slave and said, “thatch, you can talk now.”

The snake eyed slave’s lips moved and her voice said faintly, “I… I’m not called ‘Maocao’.”

“From now on, you’ll be called ‘Maocao’.”

Todd straightened up, looked down at the snake eyed female slave, and said faintly, “do you know there is a giant snake ghost in the temple? Black smoke forms its body, and its eyes are like a burning flame…”

The female slave who had just been forced to change her name was stunned for a moment. After careful reflection, she shook her head and said, “when King mokemo was alive, I never heard of the ghost of a giant snake in the temple.”

Of course, the snake eye slave knows limited things. She can know the secrets of this level, and the followers of the witch doctor queen will not allow her to live until now.

Todd looked sideways at the Assyrian girl next to him and said, “is she a daughter?”

The appearance of the two female slaves is similar. It is easy to see that they are related by blood. Todd didn’t wait for the grass to answer. He grabbed the girl’s thin wrist and cut one of her fingers with a sharp stone. The red blood beads came out, causing a stir in the horn lizard cub in the cage.

In the eyes of thatch, the horned lizard cub is a strange horned frog. Its eyes are red, and its skin surface is covered with scales, much like lizard skin. It also has two rows of sharp teeth in its mouth. It keeps scratching and biting the grass cage, trying to get out of it and suck the blood beads on the female slave’s fingers. Although the strange horned frog was only as big as a human palm, the terrible appearance of bloodthirsty madness made the grass shudder.

Todd pinched the finger of the thatched daughter, squeezed out two drops of blood to feed the horned lizard cub, and then threw the cage into the corner. He handed the package of bread and dried meat stolen by the red wolf to the Assyrian girl and said, “later, I’ll call you poison frog… Your task is to feed the little monster with a few drops of blood and ten insects every day, and then exchange it for food, water and clothes from me. Remember, never let it out of the cage, and don’t feed it more insects and blood.”

The Assyrian girl nodded and swallowed the food in her hand.

Tao de ignored her and said to Mao Cao, “we brought you some clothes. You’re going to go out to inquire about the giant snake in the temple these days. You can come back to eat and sleep every day, but if you reveal our secret, you can only go to Wanling for a poisonous frog.”

The two snake eyed female slaves can live to the present, and a strong desire for survival is essential. Moreover, they are familiar with the environment of the main city of Assyria and have some contacts. Because the investigation team is wandering around the city like a headless fly, it’s better to let Maocao go out to ask for information. Todd really has no better way. Even if the snake eye female slaves will betray them, with the dangerous intuition of the red wolf and Rogers, they can escape in advance without fear of being surrounded by the Assyrian aristocrats.

Todd didn’t put all his hope on the snake eyed female slave. In the next few days, he and the red wolf often went out to collect intelligence. The tall Rogers stayed at his foothold and was responsible for feeding the horned lizard cubs and maintaining their minimum feeding needs. He hoped that this alienated creature under special care could attract the attention of the imosen wizard and contact the investigation team again through it.

Snake eye female slave thatch comes back every day, but her task of investigating black smoke giant snake has also made little progress. Until the evening of the fifth day, Rogers noticed that the snake eyed slave was sneaking close to their thatched hut with a malicious man.

He was a strong Assyrian man, about 30 years old. He had passed the peak of Assyrian soldiers. There was a circle of obvious fat on his stomach, but he was still vigorous and should have received more strict martial arts training. He was very cautious. He refused to go any further 20 meters away from the thatched house and muttered something to the female slave thatched grass.

Their voice was very soft, but the red wolf heard it clearly. The general meaning was that he refused to enter the hut and wanted the thatch to call out the people in the hut. He was only responsible for guiding the outsiders to meet the people who wanted to see them.

Thatch is only obedient in front of Assyrian men. She enters the cabin with a nervous mood and is preparing to explain to three outsiders that she has been coerced. The red wolf caught the Assyrian man outside. He walked out of the house first, didn’t give the other party any chance to respond, subdued it in an instant, and didn’t disturb the snake eyed female slave.

The prisoner’s face was covered with oil paint, he couldn’t see his true face, and his eyes were full of horror and despair. With the determination of sacrifice, he contacted the remnants of the suspected snake eye guard for his master. If this was a trap set by the vicious queen, he would kill himself with his fangs at the first time, but his chin was directly removed by the other party, so he couldn’t commit suicide. Needless to say, the other party only pressed his back with one hand and pushed him forward. No matter how he struggled and resisted, it didn’t work. He was like a string puppet. He couldn’t even turn back. He had to walk into the narrow and dark cabin step by step.

Todd looked coldly at the captive captured by the red wolf, took out a wood carving, shook it in front of him and said, “I don’t want to know who you are, but you should know what I want to know… Tell me the answer, I’ll let you go. If you don’t know, I’ll kill you immediately.”

With a crisp “click”, the red wolf connected the prisoner’s mandible. The Assyrian man first moved his chin and said suspiciously, “are you from the sinu family? Sinu… Didn’t he go out to catch slaves and then disappeared?”

Todd’s condensed eyes showed a fierce look, and fools could feel his killing. The Assyrian man quickly said, “don’t do it, I am…”

Todd grabbed his neck and made the cervical bones make a heavy noise. His eyes said calmly, “only talk about what I’m interested in… This is your last chance, okay?”

Red wolf and Todd have been in mercury for a long time and received strict training from old spies. They are well aware of the current situation of the investigation team, and time is the most precious thing. The prisoner’s identity, background, origin and purpose are not important, because there is no condition to verify these situations. Todd only cares about the information of the black smoke giant snake. He planned to kill all the female slaves and prisoners, whether the prisoners disclosed the information or not, but Todd finally changed his mind.

The Assyrian male told Todd and others that the black smoke giant snake in the temple was the guardian spirit of the witch doctor queen and one of the four guardian spirits. The name of snake spirit is “sausage”, the name of bear spirit is “sugar pot”, the name of wolf spirit is “black bread”, and the name of Eagle spirit is “roast chicken leg”.

Todd almost couldn’t control his expression at that time. The names of the four guardians were strange and funny. The key was the vocabulary pronunciation of human common language.

There is no doubt that the four guardians are not the guardians of the witch doctor queen, but the guardians of bertina.

The prisoners did not know this and mistakenly thought that the four guardian spirits belonged to Queen harinadak. He also revealed that only the witch doctor queen can enter the main room of the temple. Without the Queen’s permission, other witch doctors will be blocked by the four guardian spirits. The queen once hid her great uncle Tumen witch doctor in the main room of the temple to prevent him from being besieged by other ancestors.

Assyrian men have repeatedly claimed that they are slaves of the old king mochmo. At present, they do slave trading in the slave market. Todd didn’t let him show his intention at all. He drove him out with the two snake eyed female slaves.

After the slave traders and snake eyed slaves left, Todd and others immediately packed up their things, gave up the thatched house and moved to other footholds.

These days, they have developed some external contacts among Assyrian refugees through force and stolen materials, and prepared several footholds.

The three men came to another hut. The red wolf took out food and copper bead money and distributed them to the refugees living in it and let them spend the night elsewhere. These people have no ability to steal. They can only eat a full meal with the property provided by the red wolf. They know that the red wolf will come to deal with the stolen goods, and are happy to provide cover for the thief leader.

Todd didn’t choose to kill the snake eye slave and the slave dealer, which may bring some trouble or unexpected opportunities. It is necessary for the investigation team to transfer the foothold. Todd has a plan in mind. Now he is eager to pass on bertina’s information to Nelson. They can only wait patiently until they get in touch with the commander of the army.

Two days later, the eyes of the horned lizard larvae lit up like a flame, and they were no longer hungry in the face of insects and fresh meat. Rogers immediately told Todd and the red wolf the good news. After waiting so long for the three people, wizard imosen finally noticed the abnormal situation of the alienated cub, showed his wisdom, guided the magic and descended his will on it.

After hearing Todd’s report, imosen was silent for a moment and said with emotion: “my bell has become a legendary witch doctor? I beat her pet hard. I had a headache and almost fainted… Hey, it’s my daughter.”

“Sir, the snake eyed female slave thatch and two Assyrian men live in the original hut again. They obviously want me to find it.” Said Todd.

Imosen manipulated the horned lizard cub, made a cooing sound and asked, “what do you mean?”

Todd shook his head secretly. Mrs. Charlotte would have guessed his plan, but in the face of scholars and wizards like Emerson, he had to explain a few more words, “I showed the slave trader the keepsake of sinau, and sinau went out with the great witch doctor of Tumen, and finally Tumen came back alone. Suppose Tumen told the witch doctor queen that sinau had taken refuge in us. Normally, the queen should send troops to attack our fountain of youth stronghold. This did not happen. Tumen probably hid our information. Moreover, I We haven’t heard from Tumen these days. He is either dead or imprisoned. In short, he is in a difficult situation. ”

“If the Assyrian warriors around Maocao are not from Tumen, they are either from the queen, or some force loyal to the old king. Now they know that sinu’s private soldiers, that is, the three of us, have returned. The first thing they think of is that sinu and the fleeing snake eye guard have gathered.”

“… well, can you make it simpler?”

Todd pursed his lower lip and continued: “assuming that the forces behind the thatch belong to the old king, they mistakenly judge that the snake eye guard and the private soldiers of the sinau family are gathering secretly, they may have the courage to launch a rebellion.”

“Oh, I see what you mean.” The horned lizard cub turned its red eyes and chirped, “the other half is that they are the people of the witch doctor queen. They misunderstood that the remnants of the snake eye guard quietly gathered and tried to catch you… They prepared in advance. Can you still cause chaos?”

Todd pulled the corners of his mouth with a cold smile and said: “Sir, this is a kind of misjudgment. We are not the remnants of the snake eye guard, and we don’t care whether the old king is dead or alive. As long as we assassinate several witch doctors, the witch doctor Queen’s people will misjudge the remnants of the snake eye guard and collude with the old King forces in the city. If they can’t catch us, they can only launch a great purge. The Assyrian nobles who miss the old king only Can fight back. That’s our goal. ”

“I know what’s going to happen in this city, and I know how to make it happen. Please convey my plan to Mrs. Charlotte and reverend Dane, and I’ll wait for your reply.” Tao de said sincerely.

After a short time, imosen responded: “Mrs. Charlotte and Lord Dane have known that they support your plan. Mrs. let you go, but pay attention to your own safety. Mrs. Dane also said that we will gather forces to feign the immortal spring in the zero wolf settlement, transfer the witch doctor queen and her main force out of the city, and create more opportunities for you… The time limit for witchcraft is approaching, and we will unite again in two days Department. ”

The red light in the eyes of the horned lizard cub gradually faded, and the wizard’s will left here. Todd could not help shaking his fist. Many years ago, mercury planned an exile riot in Dengshi city of Dodo kingdom. It was a pity that he participated in it as a chess piece. Old spy barrow is the mastermind behind the scenes.

Today, the situation of the main city of Assyria and Dengshi city is similar, both because of the internal strife caused by the reform, and the contradiction between the interested parties is close to the critical point of the conflict. Although those in power began to redistribute benefits, the situation is moving in a good direction. However, destruction is always easier than construction.

Todd restrained his excitement and was determined to trigger a riot in the main city of Assyria. If we miss this special period, it will be difficult to provoke conflicts among all parties later.
