Chapter 48

At noon, the black forest fortress, clear sky, although the streets are still cold, but there is no Blizzard to hinder people's action.

Soldiers were sorting out the materials needed for guarding the city near the city wall, while most of the civilians living in the city took advantage of this rare sunny day to start sorting out the surrounding streets. Several robed mages and magicians rode around on horseback. They watched whether the walls and towers were damaged or missing, recorded them one by one, and were ready to start using magic to repair them.

In all parts of the city, all the people who are still alive have their own jobs. They are calm and don't worry about their current situation. The confidence and customs cultivated by countless world wars have made these northerners used to their current situation.

It's the sixth day of the Kuroshio siege.

Outside the city, there is a dark purple fog in the black forest. No magic can detect the situation inside. Except for the occasional howl, no one can know what happened. Several silver Knights formed a group and went to the Fallen Fortress outside the city to search for supplies and equipment that could still be used.

In the city, in the center of the black forest fortress, there is a Gothic clock tower with a pointed top. It looks very old. The suction cups left by the cold leaf Parthenocissus are all over its four walls. Only the windows are spared because they are often cleaned.

As a matter of principle, this kind of clock tower is usually not guarded except for people coming in and out from time to time. But now, there are several robed mages coming in and out, all of them frowning and leaving with shame and worry.

Inside the bell tower, second floor.

A Silver Knight with an injured right hand was standing in front of a room. He looked solemnly at the gray wall in front of him and was silent.

Creak, the door of the room was opened, and another mage came out with a frown. Looking up, he saw the knight in front of the door, and then said with a bitter smile, "please... Elson."

And the middle-aged knight, who looked old and had gray hair, turned to look at the mage beside him and asked numbly, "why, failed again?"

"There's no way. The chaos magic has completely enveloped the surrounding mountains. As long as the communication wave spreads, it will be quickly polluted and rewritten. The array power here is too small to break through.

After a few words of conversation, he shook his head and left the clock tower, leaving the knight standing upright and motionless.

The sun moved slowly. The sun shone on him through the window beside the clock tower, probably because the weather was too cold. It was the noon sun, but it didn't feel any dryness and heat. On the contrary, some chill came to my heart.

The windows here used to be used by archers. The black forest fortress has not been broken, so it has never been used. However, according to the current situation, it may be the first time that this shooting opening, which was designed more than 200 years ago but has never been used, will be used.

"Alas..."

With a deep sigh, the gray haired Knight looked around the inside of the bell tower, which was no longer dark because of the sunshine. Elson touched his right hand, which was smashed and fractured, and showed a self mocking smile: "even if I die, I want to die in the front line... Guard the communication array, ha ha."

Unwilling to return, he clearly knew that in the room behind him was the communication array that could connect all the leaders in the north. Although it can't be compared with the super large array in St. Lawrence's Cathedral, which can connect the whole empire and even the outer world, it is also a very important protection object.

However, due to the unknown black purple fog, the magic of chaos covers the great AEAS mountains, and the communication array with insufficient power can not transmit the information.

The mages who come and go come to solve this problem. Unfortunately, no matter who they are, they are helpless. This is not something that technology can solve.

The gray knight was attacked by a flying silver Warcraft in the battle of guarding the city a few days ago. Although he quickly killed him with the cooperation of his comrades in arms, his right hand still suffered devastating damage.

In the fortress where there are not enough priests, this means that his combat effectiveness is greatly weakened. Otherwise, how can a silver knight be sent to guard this communication array which is obviously useless? He must be standing at the front of the wall to guard against the tide of wild animals that may attack again at any time. That's his duty.

"Fortunately, there are not many birds in the north. In six days, no matter how many flying Warcraft there are, they should be dead by now."

Following his own thinking, Elson said to himself: "yes, today is the sixth day. No matter how slow the reaction in the main city is, it should be found that it is wrong. However, the snow is so deep that it will take a few days for reinforcements to arrive. At that time, the fortress may have been broken... If the Lord flies alone, that's another matter."The golden class can fly freely. No matter they are mages, soldiers, warlocks, priests, they can get the protection of the earth and the sky because of their resonance with the energy, and get the ability to fly freely in the sky and the earth. This is something everyone knows.

If you fly all the way, it won't take long to get to the fortress from the main city, but it will take a lot of physical strength to recover in a few days, which is meaningless.

"What do you want so much for?" All of a sudden, he found that his thinking was getting more and more biased. The gray haired knight could not help but laugh. He shook his head and looked at his right hand. Although there were not many priests in the fortress, his medical strength was not bad. With the help of magic medicine and several ordinary doctors, he was able to recover as a silver warrior, A few days later, he had a certain combat effectiveness: "the big deal is to die in battle..."

Elson felt something blocked his throat. He turned his head and looked out of the window. The stone houses filled the center of the fortress like a small city, and the dense towers stood on the wall, Archers and heavy equipment like goblin guns are placed among them to provide the most powerful fire support.

This is a black forest fortress, a gray city, and the farthest point of civilization. Countless people with great ideals and beliefs come to this bitter and cold place, live next to animals and ice and snow, and guard the frontier of the human world.

It's also the place where he lived for 19 years, his wife, his children and his family,

The two people he loved most chose to live in the most dangerous frontier fortress with his soldier and gave up the comfortable life in the main city. However, in the face of such deep love, the gray haired knights could not guarantee their safety.

This is really

"Zizi... Zizi..."

The sudden noise interrupted Elson's emotion.

He turned his head and looked at the room behind him. He could not help but be a little stunned. Then he frowned and looked puzzled.

"Zizi... Zizi... Unicom..."

"No... isn't it?" Hearing the faint voices coming from the room, Elson said nothing. He immediately opened the door and walked quickly into it.

This is not a very spacious room. In the middle of the room, there is a stone platform like a round table. On the stone platform, there are dense silver blue and gold lines. They are made of crystal with a faint luster.

In the center of these lines, there is a small white plane like a mirror, which is composed of runes and rippling like water.

At this time, the long silent contact Dharma array began to flash with light, the plane was moving, the runes were rotating, and the sound was coming from it.

"... I am the Lord of... Z... Davia, Joshua... Z... Reeve."

All of a sudden, the noise was completely eliminated in an instant, and a majestic male voice sounded from the white mirror: "the 27th connection, target black forest fortress, can you hear my voice?"
