Chapter 986： return

Listening to the words of Lord Baldwin, Heidi nodded slightly.

The key to this disaster from the beginning was on the Typhons themselves, and the subsequent performance of the Typhons would undoubtedly affect the eventual direction of this event. If it is completely out of control, then the entire Typhon will inevitably become a contaminated area. At that time, regardless of whether Cecil is willing to be involved in a larger-scale war, the battle that should not be fought will continue. But if the Typhons control the situation...

Then the operable space is very large.

Thoughts were ups and downs in his heart, but Heidi couldn't help but sighed slightly: "Although the loss of control of every **** means a huge disaster... But obviously the **** of war is more difficult than the other gods."

"What I am most worried about now is that if the war continues, will the God of War have subsequent unknown changes," Duke Baldwin said in a deep voice, "He may gradually get rid of the madness as the war'returns to the right track'. Returning to the position of the righteous god, it is also possible that the state of madness is irreversible. This mad **** will become stronger and stronger as the war continues, and begin to influence more people affected by the war..."

"In the final analysis, we don’t know enough about the gods," Grand Duke Victoria said with a cold expression. "We are not sure whether the state of madness is reversible, nor can we be sure whether the **** of war can draw power during the war-we only know His power comes from the beliefs of mortals, but this absorption process... is not yet quantifiable at this stage, and we do not have a reliable means to collect Tifeng’s popular trends."

Heidi grumbled, rubbing her forehead lightly, and said: "Anyway, winning Winter Wolf Fort is the first step. The question now is how to take the second step."

Duke Baldwin said while thinking: "According to our previous plan, after occupying Winter Wolf Fort, we should immediately march towards the Fortress Line and Shadow Swamp, and control the assembly point of the Typhons in the north and the junction of the cross-border railway. Station, then relying on armored trains and mechanized troops to advance quickly, attack Aldernan in the shortest time-if Aldernan is difficult to capture, quickly occupy the transportation hub of Tarenkins and cut Tifeng’s grain production area And the industrial raw material transportation hub, trying to find a way to cause a wide range of food shortages and industrial shutdown..."

"The Typhonians should be grateful to Andessa Wendell, now this will not happen," Heidi shook her head, "Since it is now known that Typhon is not really declaring war, and they are fighting against this divine disaster internally, It is necessary to make adjustments to our advancement plan. Grand Archon Victoria, what is your opinion?"

"Let the First Army temporarily stop advancing eastward, build fortifications at Winter Wolf Fort, and at the same time find favorable terrains in the north and south of Winter Wolf Fort to set up strongholds, and block the entire area with long-range artillery positions-this blockade was maintained in the first stage. As long as this blockade is not lost, all Typhon’s actions will be passive,” Victoria said clearly in her opinion-her military experience in the three-man ruling group Obviously more abundant than the other two, "At the same time, further collect the internal intelligence of Typhon...

"As of now, our intelligence network in Typhon has been greatly affected by the situation there. For the sake of protecting intelligence personnel, many dark lines have been in a latent state recently. But if the situation there continues to be chaotic, the intelligence Instead, the activities of personnel will become safer...

"In addition, I think it is necessary to grasp the recent changes in Typhon through some other means, such as the line between the Highmountain Kingdom and the Silver Empire-they have a lot of exchanges with Typhon in the southern part of the mainland, maybe they are coming from there. The news of can corroborate the information provided by Andessa Wendell. Of course, our intelligence force there is relatively weak. Probably only the Silver Empire can provide some reliable information, but it is better than nothing... "

Victoria finished talking about her thoughts one by one, and then left the time to Hetty and the Duke of Baldwin. For the next period of time, the topics of the three archons revolved around the follow-up actions against Typhon.

When the discussion came to an end, Heidi finally had time to pick up the water glass on the table, and the Duke of Baldwin Franklin, who was opposite the communication channel, hesitated for a while and asked: "Heidi Archon, Your Majesty is there. ...Has no reply yet?"

Heidi was holding the water glass, her expression a little complicated for a while, she shook her head, her tone was a little worried: "There is still no news..."

"... Your Majesty will come back safely," Victoria still said in a cold voice, "He is a man who can play against the gods."

After talking a few more words, the two archons of Baldwin and Victoria and Heidi said goodbye, and turned off the Monet terminal one after the other. With the slight buzzing noise remaining after the device was turned off, it gradually subsided. Finally, only Heidi was left in the office-the room became very quiet for a while, and it was even quiet so that Heidi could hear her breathing.

Suddenly, she took a deep breath and rubbed her eyebrows vigorously. Then she hesitated to stretch her hand to the drawer beside her. After a while, she took out from the drawer a silvery white that was kept in a delicate small box. Small ring.

Heidi stared at the ring for two seconds before reaching out to try to rub its surface and inject magic power into it.

Just like when she tried yesterday, the Mithril Ring didn't respond, and this was her sixth attempt in the past 24 hours.

Heidi couldn't help rubbing her eyebrows again, and she took this opportunity to lower her head, as if to prevent anyone from seeing her irritability and anxiety at this moment-although there was no one else in this office except her.

In her hand is the Mithril Ring, an "emergency communication tool" left by Gawain before leaving. It is said that it uses the superb technology from Tarrond to maintain communication even when crossing the continent.

Talrond is far away from the human world by endless oceans and eternal storms, and the existing magic net communication is beyond reach, so Gao Wen left this thing to ensure that when the situation on the mainland changes dramatically and the empire is facing crisis Urgent contact.

But now there is no response to this thing-Heidi doesn't know where the problem is, whether it is his own operation, or the precision device is malfunctioning, or... it is even worse.

This upsets her, but no one can talk to her.

She threw the Mithril Ring back to the table, and the metal collided with the table top with a crisp sound. The ring bounced twice on the table, and then rolled to the side to stop.

And almost at the same time she threw the Mithril Ring back to the table, a magic net terminal that had just been shut down not long ago suddenly lit up, and there were rapid buzzing from the base of the machine, and the hologram above The projection showed the identification marks of the special line inside the North Winter Fortress—Hetty was taken aback and quickly connected to the communication, so the Duchess of Victoria, who had just been disconnected, appeared again in the holographic projection.

"Grand Archon Victoria?" Heidi looked at the projection in surprise, "What happened..."

"The Northport Hub Tower just received the identification signal from the northern waters," Victoria Wilde did not wait for Hetty to finish, and said in a cold voice and a little hastily, "It should be the two large magic nets carried by your Majesty. The terminal is sending a letter!"

Hearing this news, Heidi's first reaction was to glance at the Mithril Ring on the table just aside by him, and then stared at Victoria: "Are you sure? Did you get in touch? ?"

"The signal characteristics have been confirmed, and the magic net signal from the northern seas cannot be anything else, but the current signal is still very weak, it should be too far away, there is no way to establish communication, only short messages representing peace are sent and received. ," Victoria said, "but according to the current signal enhancement curve, you can barely communicate in about ten minutes."

"Please turn here for the first time!" Heidi said immediately.

"I'm already doing this."

Ten minutes...Heidi never thought that ten minutes could be so long. She was fidgeting, anxiously expecting that all emotions such as joy and confusion were mixed together. She wanted to get up and walk or tidy up her appearance, but she was worried about it. His behavior happened to be seen by the ancestors who might be able to connect at any time, so he had to force it down again, maintaining the usual dignified and calm posture behind the desk. She felt that she had waited in this state for almost forty thousand years, and she thought that the Duke of Victoria in the holographic projection of the magic net terminal next to it must be as difficult as her own-except that the ice and snow fair day was paralyzed. I'm used to it, I can't see it at this time...

Her thoughts had just begun to diverge, and suddenly there was a light and shadow above the magic net terminal on the other side of the desk that was used for the transfer - Heidi felt her breathing and heartbeat also beating - and then, In the severe interference and distortion, some vague shadows gradually appeared in the holographic projection, accompanied by bursts of noise full of noise.

Although it is still not clear, Heidi can be sure that it is indeed his ancestor! It is indeed the figure of Gawain Cecil.

The ancestor seemed to be talking, but she still couldn't hear clearly. After a while, she saw that the picture became slightly stable and clear, and there were intermittent voices in those noises, and the voices gradually became coherent. She heard her ancestors calling her name: "Hetty...interfering... Hear... can you hear me clearly now?"

"Okay, ancestor!" Heidi said immediately. She didn't notice that she had stood up. "There is still a little interference, but I can hear you clearly!"

With just these two sentences, she saw that the sound and picture presented by the Mowang terminal seemed a little clearer than before.

Obviously, the ancestors are quickly approaching the continent of Loren-Heidi can almost imagine the scene of the dragon flying through the air at full speed.

"I can finally hear your voice, too," Gawain's voice rang, "Very well, it seems that these two devices are not broken after some toss. Heidi, tell me about yours. By the current situation, has something happened to Loren Continent recently?"

"How did you know..." Heidi was surprised instinctively, but then she reacted. She didn't care how her ancestors learned of the drastic changes in the mainland situation, instead she said straightforwardly, "Ancestor, Tifeng Divine Disaster Deteriorating, part of the army lost control and attacked us-we and Typhon had entered a state of'war' when we had to fight back."

"Ah?!" Gawain was visibly stunned—even if there were a lot of interference ripples on the screen, Heidi could be sure that he saw the ancestor's shocked expression.

It can surprise the ancestors who are always majestic and reliable... Maybe you should feel proud?

Heidi smiled bitterly and laughed at himself, and then had to report the follow-up to Gao Wen: "...After the war broke out, we chose to advance the front to the east. General Philip led the First Army, with the assistance of the Dragoon troops, Already captured Winter Wolf Fort at dawn today-now our army has built forts and bunkers on the border of the Typhons."

"……what?!"

"In addition, the garrison of Winter Wolf Castle took the initiative to surrender under the leadership of its Supreme Commander Andersa Wendell. We ended the battle there more easily than expected..."

"……what!?"

After three consecutive "ah"s, Gao Wencai finally recovered a little from his consternation. His figure appeared clearer in the holographic projection, and the voice was more clearly transmitted to Hetty's ears: "Wait, what happened? After a major change, why didn't you contact me directly with the Mithril Ring?"

Heidi stunned, and subconsciously placed his gaze on the silver-white ring on the table, and then said: "I tried several times, haven't you received it?"

"Have you tried?" Gawain seemed more surprised than Hetty, "but I really don't have any reaction here..."

Heidi: "???"

Is there a problem with your operation? Or is this Tarrond creation, which claims to have extremely high technical content, really malfunctioned?

A new question popped up in her mind for a while, but before she could speak, Gawain’s voice had been heard again: "Anyway, let’s ignore the issue of the Mithril Ring. Let me talk about the current situation first-we Approaching the coastline of Beigang, you tell me as briefly and clearly as possible how much I have missed."

...

The cold wind roared and raged outside the protective barrier, and the endless ocean was swiftly passing under the dragon. At the end of the slightly undulating sea water, the outline of the mainland could already be seen.

Gawain stood in the center of Melita's broad spine and listened to Heidi's report in amazement.

"Just a long journey..." He couldn't help muttering to himself, "How could the whole world be turned upside down after coming back."

"Before I set off, I always felt that something was going to happen on this trip!" Amber kept BB beside him, "You don't believe my instincts, I told you that my instincts are accurate. I suspected this winter this winter a month ago. It’s not good, you think something happened, or else..."

Miss Half-elf’s BB sound is a headache. Gawain regrets that Melita doesn’t have a wall on her back at this time—he simply can’t photograph the noisy Amber on the wall.

"Merita," in the end, he forcibly ignored Amber's babble, turned his head and said loudly to the giant dragon head in front of him, "Hetty said that the Mithril Ring did not respond, what is going on?"

"I don't know! There has never been a similar situation before!" Melita's voice was obviously also a little nervous, and the surprise in her tone did not seem to be fake at all, "The Mithril Ring...that thing and Omega The system is directly connected, and all information is sent and received by Omega personally. Even if a certain ring is damaged or offline, the related damage report will be instantly transmitted to Tarrond and sent to the custodian of the ring and each level. Person in charge-I am the person in charge of your ring, but I have not received similar news at all."

Gawain frowned: "Omega made a mistake?"

"Omega never makes mistakes!" Melita's voice came from the front, her tone was very firm at first, but she soon hesitated, "At least... I have never seen anything like this since I was born... …"
