Masked Knight

Chapter 271: The consciousness of bait

Views:

Although he was angry in his heart, Roddy, who had experienced too many tests, forced himself to calm down. Reason told him that it would be useless to get angry now, so it was better to wait for the other party to finish what he said.

Thinking of this, Rody sat down again, looked at the chief magic master of Roland Continent calmly, and said in a deep voice: "Continue talking."

The wrinkles on Sith's face were like dried orange peels. A somewhat complicated look appeared in his eyes, and he slowly said: "In the history of Roland Continent, due to the ironwood resource problem, the kingdoms and dwarves of Roland Continent were once A war broke out among the clan... The king has already told you this."

"Yes." Rody nodded calmly.

"At the beginning of that war, the temple also secretly supported Roland's many kingdoms. It can even be said that the war was started by the temple. In the eyes of the temple, the dwarves are aliens anyway. Let such a It is absolutely impossible to rest assured that a foreign race controls the lifeblood resources of the Roland people. "

"Although the dwarves have some strength, they cannot resist the combined power of many kingdoms! Just when they were almost collapsed and defeated, a news came from the temple..." Sith's eyes suddenly fell on He stood on the ceiling and said expressionlessly: "The temple demands a ceasefire! A ceasefire immediately!"

"What's the reason?" Rody frowned.

"I don't know!" When Sis said this, the muscles on his face seemed to tremble, and he sighed: "No one knew it at the time, but later... Later, a long time later, we passed various channels. I just got a little bit of news... The dwarves seemed to have mastered something very important! And the temple was very afraid of that thing. At that time, the dwarves seemed to have issued a warning. If they were destroyed, they would find a way to get that thing... "

"Destroy?" Rody smiled bitterly.

"I really don't know about this." Sith sighed: "I don't know what the temple is afraid of. Is it that the dwarves will destroy that thing? Or take it out and use it? Or... Anyway, no one knows this. Yes. This is a big secret in the temple. We, the remnants of the Shaka Empire, have been working hard to regain the empire, so we have tried every means to find out this news. That's all." He paused and said slowly: "But one thing is absolutely unmistakable! That is that the temple is really afraid of that thing! Very afraid!"

"I understand, you launched a sneak attack on the dwarves. You don't really want to conquer the dwarves, but you want to get that thing!" Roddy's eyes were a little sarcastic.

"Yes." Sith sighed: "So we need you for this matter. After our army lands, we will fight all the way. If the fight reaches a critical moment, it is inevitable that the dwarves will come to defeat them. So, you, Luo Your Excellency Di, or rather His Excellency Duke Tulip, as a powerful person in the field, we are asking for your help..."

Roddy didn't wait for the other party to finish speaking this time, he stood up. He waved his hand and said calmly: "That's enough!"

He looked at Sith mockingly: "So, one of the reasons why this fleet is here is to attract the opponent's naval power, so that you can actually attack the army and land smoothly... The other reason is to send me here, you I feel that with my strength, even if I encounter the dwarf fleet, I will be able to land safely, and then help you secretly go to the dwarf territory to seize that thing. After all, it is much more convenient for one person to fight than an army. It’s much more secretive! Is that what you mean?”

The Sith nodded.

"Let's put it this way. These more than a hundred warships are used as bait first, and secondly to send me here... You are indeed very generous!"

"For the final result, it is acceptable to pay a small price." Sith sighed, "My mission is to sneak into the dwarf territory with you, under my guidance..."

Rody said calmly: "No need to say it!"

"What?" Sith changed color slightly.

"I said, you don't need to continue talking!" Roddy's expression was very cold: "No matter what you want to ask of me, I can tell you very clearly..." He stared into Sith's eyes, and then spoke slowly word by word. Said: "I refuse!"

"You..." Sis frowned: "Are you still angry about this matter? I believe you can understand..."

"Yes, I can understand." Rody said calmly: "As a commander of the army, I can understand this strategy of attacking the east and attacking the west, but my understanding does not mean that I can calmly accept your fooling me!"

Looking at the speechless Sith, Rody said coldly: "I only do things based on my own ideas. If you tell me the matter before this, I may agree to help you. But in this way ..." He suddenly smiled, but even a blind person could see that there was no joy in his smile: "I'm really angry!"

He turned around and walked out the door. When he reached the door, he suddenly said coldly: "Tell His Majesty the King that those who have fooled me have paid the price! But now because we are allies Maybe I won’t cause trouble with him right away! But it’s best not to try to use these similar methods on me again!”

Leaving the stunned Sith behind, Rody walked onto the deck, and the soldiers around him who saw him saluted him respectfully. Rody sighed in his heart: These poor guys don't know that they have been sold by the king!

The strong sea breeze at night blew on his face. Rody took a long breath and let out the depression in his heart. Then he shook his head gently, as if he wanted to shake out the mess in his mind.

What to do next

Rody looked at the tranquil sea in the distance - it seemed that the shadow of the mainland could be faintly seen in the distance. That must be the island country of the dwarves!

Rody pondered deeply.

If this fleet is a decoy, then the dwarf fleet must be nearby. The opponent will attack soon and eat this bait!

I wonder when the battle will start

Rody looked up at the sky... It should be before dawn!

If he were the commander-in-chief, he would also choose to attack at night.

Roddy wasn't worried about himself. With his own strength, even if the sea is vast, he will not be harmed at all... Thinking of this, he suddenly smiled bitterly... But there is another trouble in the cabin!

He subconsciously walked to his cabin. When I reached the door, I suddenly remembered that Nidis was still taking a bath.

Smiling helplessly, Rody suddenly felt that the entangled woman didn't seem so annoying anymore - at least she was much cuter than King Sauron.

As these complex thoughts were swirling in my mind, I suddenly heard the sailor on the lookout above my head suddenly yell: "Something's happening!"

There were two sailors on the lookout, one of whom looked nervously into the distance. The other one had already slipped down the mast, and most of them ran towards the cabin. Rody grabbed him and said, "What's going on?"

"A fleet is approaching! It's a dwarf warship!" The sailor panted nervously. He broke away from Rody's hand and ran inside.

"Here we come!" Rody raised his eyebrows and jumped up from the deck. Jumped to the lookout. Facing the frightened sailor who stared at him, Rody said calmly: "Where?"

"There!" the sailor reluctantly composed himself. Pointed in a direction.

Rody looked over intently. His eyesight was much stronger than that of ordinary people. Wherever he looked, there was a dark shadow of sails approaching from the right side of his fleet. The opponent is obviously moving very fast.

At this moment, the deck paper below was already full of people. The sailors and soldiers got the news and began to assemble. After the horn was blown, the sailor at the lookout above immediately took out a small torch from his arms, shook it slightly, and the torch immediately emitted a dazzling light!

The dazzling brightness of that little torch shocked even those who landed on the ground!

The strength of the Sauron Royal Navy is indeed extraordinary. After the torch on the flagship was lit, other surrounding ships immediately lit up with torches in response, and countless groups of lights flickered on the sea for a while. Even the stars in the sky seemed to dim.

Roddy, who already knew something about the Sauron Kingdom's navy, knew that the meaning of this torch was to order the entire fleet to be on alert.

It must be said that the Royal Navy of the Kingdom of Sauron did not respond quickly, but they still lagged behind.

Because this fleet still doesn’t know that it’s going to war with the dwarves! They are simply based on convention. Be alert when you see a large fleet approaching...

But the dwarves are already completely murderous and ready to fight!

The dwarves were the first to attack!

In the darkness, because the distance was too far, Rody was not able to see clearly what the dwarf's attack looked like. In fact, the most unlucky ones were the outermost ships of the Sauron Kingdom's fleet.

Only a faint roar was heard, and a huge spark suddenly appeared on a slightly smaller Sauron Kingdom warship in the distance, and then arrows flew over like locusts, and they were all rockets!

In just a few minutes, the warship turned into a huge fireball and burned - Rody didn't even understand what attack methods the dwarf warship used!

The outer battle has begun, and the calm on the sea has been broken. The only sounds that can be heard are whistling and explosions, as well as the screams of soldiers and sailors.

Rody felt clear in his heart that the Sauron Kingdom's fleet had already lost this battle!

Perhaps this is the awareness of being a bait.

The Sauron Kingdom's fleet scattered on the sea was immediately scattered!

The five-sailed warships of the dwarves were indeed powerful. Countless warships rushed towards Sauron's fleet. They immediately rushed into Sauron's fleet, crossed each other and started a dense attack. Although the Sauron fleet tried its best to resist, the surrounding warships burst into flames one by one!

The nearest five-sailed warship of the dwarves has reached the distance within Rody's sight!

The soldiers on the deck had already picked up their weapons, the artillerymen also started to fire back, and a large number of soldiers shouted the slogan "Protect His Majesty" and moved towards the king's cabin.

Rody frowned, kicked open the door to his cabin and rushed in.

Steam filled the room, and Nidis let out a scream. Rody vaguely saw a white figure and quickly squatted into the huge wooden barrel as fast as lightning.

"You... get out!" Nidis' voice was sharp, obviously a little frightened.

Rody said in a deep voice: "You haven't finished washing yet?"

"You...I told you to get out!" Nidis was furious, but in her busy schedule, she didn't forget to talk back to Rody: "Don't you know that girls take baths very slowly!"

Roddy picked up the ordinary officer's uniform on the shelf, threw it at Nidis, and shouted coldly: "You have finished washing now! Get dressed quickly!" Then he turned around.

Nidis heard the shouting outside and seemed to know something was wrong, so she quickly put on her clothes.

Only a huge roar was heard, and the entire hull shook violently several times. Nidis was caught off guard and rushed towards Rody with a stagger. Rody frowned and supported her.

Nidis looked nervous: "What's going on outside?"

"Get dressed first!" Rody gave her a cold look.

In the rush, the buttons on Nidis' chest were not yet fastened. She only wore a top all over her body - luckily the person who prepared the clothes thought it was for Roddy, and the size of the clothes they gave her was according to Roddy's body size. The large military uniform was put on Nidis, and the hem had already faded. It covers the area above the knees. Only the button on the chest exposed half of her snow-white chest.

Nidis' face turned red and she quickly buttoned up her clothes. But suddenly there was a scream from outside, and then the ship shook violently a few times again. Roddy could even hear a cracking sound coming from the spirit! !

"It's too late!" Rody said in a deep voice, "Follow me!"

He quickly pulled a blanket aside, not allowing Nidis to resist, wrapped her in it, took her hand and ran out of the door!

Outside the cabin, the deck was full of people! Countless archers are shooting arrows desperately! All he could hear was the swishing sound coming back and forth. Rody held Nidis in his arms with one hand, and casually deflected the arrows that occasionally shot at him with the other hand.
