The cold wind blew across Claudia's face like a knife. (?[¡²>The middle part of the comfortable cloak on the back was tightly tied around the waist with a silk rope, but the back hem was still shaking under the high airflow. It was really hard to hold the reins tightly with both hands. The famous master always subconsciously looks at the ring on his left hand. Although the bronze flying dragon is notoriously stable among flying mounts, the special seats prepared by the players firmly fixed Claudia on the dragon. But Claudia, who was flying into the sky for the first time, was not at all worried, so the 'Four Winds Ring', which was already of little use at this level, became the last insurance in the heart of the true master. If it accidentally falls from a high altitude, the 'falling feather technique' that can be activated on this ring can also ensure its safety. Although it is only the first time for Claudia to ride this kind of aerial vehicle, both her riding skills and experience are very important. Very inadequate. But the bronze flying dragon has the same intelligence level as the bipedal dragon. Although it is comparable to the young white dragon, it cannot be completely called an intelligent creature, but even A-Gump can understand human speech. The difficulty of driving and the execution of instructions are actually much better than that of horses. This is one of the important reasons why Barrett is relieved to let Claudia come to investigate. "Damn it, I must change it next time!" Man, I don¡¯t want to suffer like this!" Claudia closed her lips tightly and kept roaring in her heart. Even though she prepared a special mask and goggles, the strong wind in the high altitude still prevented her from letting go. . At the same time, she also knew in her heart that Barrett definitely wanted to make her suffer like this. Claudia even suspected that the tall captain had such a plan since she proposed to exchange for the bronze flying dragon. The flying speed of the flying dragon is farther than the player itself, and without the restrictions of terrain and obstacles on the ground, the time it takes Claudia to get to Tallinn Castle from the moment she gets on the flying dragon is even less than the time it took the players before. Half of Claudia's scene changed from snowfield to forest and then back to snowfield. The only change was that a small dim block appeared in the snowfield. Claudia pulled the hand when she found the target. Then the smart flying dragon flapped its wings and began to circle and lower its height. Although Tallinn Castle in the snow and wind experienced two disastrous defeats, it seemed that such lessons still failed to fully arouse them. A sense of crisis. Well! The noble officers were somewhat aware that something was wrong, but due to the loose system they were unable to fully implement their will. Even though the soldiers on guard were still on patrol, they were still on patrol. The listless look could not be called intentional. So even if there was a black spot that appeared and disappeared in the sky, they barely raised their heads and did not see the sky from beginning to end. After experiencing the initial discomfort, Claudia continued to observe the flying dragon's gliding for a full hour, and then drove the mount on its way back until the flying dragon flapped its wings. Landing outside the grove, Claudia began to hurriedly untie the leather buckles on her body. It was these things that fixed it on the special seat to ensure that the flying dragon could maneuver in the air. , the driver will not fall off accidentally. Claudia, who successfully jumped off the flying dragon, patted her mount, and then the creature that was originally much larger than Claudia turned into an exquisite bronze statue in her hand. After putting this rare item in her bag, she started walking towards the camp in the forest. As a permitted user, Claudia successfully pushed open the well-hidden door. When Barrett saw the person coming, he immediately asked: "Has there been any change in our goal?" "Barrett, you bastard!" Claudia said this, even ignoring the snow on her body. , and pounced on Barrett with a distorted face. It¡¯s a pity that the size difference between the two sides is really too big. Claudia, whose shoulders were held down by Barrett, could not reach Barrett¡¯s body with her fists or feet. This made someone who was already in a bad mood become a little hysterical: "Hit me, no, give me a bite. Barrett, you bastard, did you know from the beginning that riding a flying dragon into the sky is so uncomfortable?" " Don't you think you can take a look at this special air work clothes? From its style and structure, you can understand that the job of riding a dragon is not a spring outing!" Barrett controlled the distance between Claudia and himself. , said it quite unnutritiously at this time. Obviously there is no sincerity. Rielli, who was on the side, also spoke up at this time: "Dia, your reaction is too much, isn't it? How do I remember that you seemed to have to take on this task whether you were alive or dead at the beginning?" "Huh? That's right. , I didn¡¯t know it would be so uncomfortable!¡± Claudius heard this.?Immediately lost the confidence to raise an army to investigate the crime. Dragon Knight is the dream of many players in the game. Even if it is a flying dragon, part of the dream has been fulfilled. After all, flying dragons are distant relatives of real dragons. Although this statue has been in hand for some time, Claudia has never found the opportunity to ride it to the sky to eat meat. So after finally getting such an opportunity, this lady couldn't wait. It's a pity that her first aerial experience was a complete nightmare. The corners of Barrett's mouth raised slightly: "Seeing that your interest was so high, I didn't have the nerve to ruin your good mood." "It's not embarrassing? Barrett, you did it on purpose! You definitely did it on purpose, right? !" Claudia, who finally calmed down, suddenly became hysterical again. "Barrett, please stop saying a few words! Stop irritating people." Rielle walked up to Barrett and gave him a hard elbow on the waist. Unfortunately, it hit Barrett. When the strong muscles hit it, it was like hitting a thick shield. Then the mage had to rub his elbows with a grimace, and then asked: "Dia, can you first tell me if there are any changes in the objects we monitor?" "I really haven't noticed any changes." Claudia shook her head and shook off the snow on her hat. "From the sky, the situation there is no different from what you described before. The only thing that has been discovered should be the piles of snow in the courtyard there." There are a lot of barrels and wooden boxes! But this was a blind spot during the previous observation, so it can¡¯t be considered a change.¡± ¡°After suffering such a blow, those Lucians were not on full alert. The plane is too wide!" Anvil on the side couldn't help but say after hearing this, "Are they just so sure that we won't go in?" Clematis looked at him with a slightly strange look. He looked at the anvil and said, "Go in? I really don't know why you have such an idea. This kind of situation cannot happen before the official declaration of war." Sending troops to attack official fortresses is something that can't be done on the Western Continent. Generally, no action will be taken until the declaration of war is submitted. Although reputation is something invisible and intangible, its impact is indeed real. On the one hand, it is due to the pressure of public opinion and the fear of affecting the attitude of neutral parties. What's more important is that once one of the parties breaks through the bottom line, the other party will not be condemned for carrying out similar revenge work. Just like 200 years ago, if the Kingdom of Lucia hadn't used the legendary magic to sneak attack first, the Kingdom of Norhan would not have dared to kill. Uprooted the "Tower Union" in two places. Therefore, the other party can be said to be confident in terms of its own safety. Although I was reminded to be careful. But the main purpose of the other party is to observe whether anyone has penetrated into Lucia from the nearby trade routes. Instead of worrying that someone will take the initiative to launch a siege in this cold weather. The Cruze Kingdom obviously cannot send any manpower, and the Nohan Kingdom will not ruin its reputation for this small place. As for the remaining forces near Lucia, they probably don't have the strength to carry out a surprise attack. "Are there supplies stacked up in the courtyard? It seems that either the underground space of that fortress is smaller, or it has stored more supplies before." Barrett touched his chin and nodded, "But hoarding There are so many things, even if this is not one of the main directions of attack, it must be an offensive route. I just don¡¯t know what tasks we will be assigned after the war starts?¡± ¡°No matter what task it is, Barrett, can¡¯t you pass it? Lead us to the final victory?" Clematis suddenly patted Barrett's horse. Barrett smiled awkwardly after hearing this: "Forget it! Anyway, according to the consistent tradition of the Bolum family, we will not be assigned any fatal tasks. When the time comes, we can completely adapt to the situation." With the original daily life The ground surveillance turned into aerial reconnaissance every few days, and the frequency of players transmitting intelligence to the Bolum leader decreased. However, due to different observation angles, some details that could not be discovered originally further improved the previous intelligence. Of course, Claudia, who suffered enough the first time, refused to perform this task again. After listening to Claudia's story, several women in the team also rejected the task one by one. Therefore, the work of 'high-altitude' investigation can only fall on a few men. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????The Tallinn Castle Fortress is like a stone that has been forgotten for thousands of years, never changing. Until Noodles discovered that the flag hanging at the head of the fortress had changed slightly. "Are you sure you added a new flag?" Barrett's calm tone made it difficult to feel his emotional fluctuations. But the more this happens, the more players know the seriousness of the problem. Barrett's characteristic is that he is usually very casual, but when it comes to an important matter, he seems very casual.Very serious. The halfling wanderer nodded: "That's right! There is an extra flag with vines and a giant-horned deer. As for other details, I can't see it clearly in the sky." "It seems that they are in the gaps in our investigation. "Are new troops stationed in that fortress?" Barrett then murmured, "Does the territory remind us to be careful about the new guys?" "Which family are the Giant-horned Deer and Vine? The family crest?" Rielle on the side also muttered and began to evaluate the knowledge. Barrett announced a proposal before the mage's work was completed: "In order to ensure the next safety, we must rearrange the vigil work. If we rely solely on the alarm system of the 'Mage's Secret Hall', we will still be alerted. Find the loophole. "The doors and windows of the Master's Secret Hall do have touch alarms, but that kind of alarm can still be bypassed in the eyes of some people. For example, the triggering condition of the alarm is limited by the body size. If it becomes smaller, it can definitely slip through the gap of the anvil on the chimney. At that time, whether poisoning or casting spells will threaten the lives of players. Another method is to block the transmission of alarms. Generally speaking, only a 'silence spell' can block the audible alarm. Although the remaining part of the psychic alarm is troublesome, it is not completely unsolvable at low levels. What's more, the other party doesn't need to act completely silently. It only needs 1 or 2 seconds for the players to wake up from their sleep at night. It is enough to determine the success or failure of the battle. So at this time, it becomes very important to restart the vigil system that was used when camping in the wild. The anvil nodded immediately after hearing this: "I have no objection." "I agree." The halfling rogue's answer was quite brief. Then Lalu also echoed: "No problem." As several men in the team who do not need sleep to ensure the casting of spells have made their decisions, the matter has been settled (although Claudia does not want to guarantee the casting of spells) sleep, but as a woman, no one will leave the burden in her hands if there are enough people on the night watch) "Oh! I found it, this is the flag of Blackpool, Duke of Southern Xinjiang of Lucia. But. The specific army under his command can only be identified from the details by seeing the actual object." At this time, Elli's eyes regained their clarity. Players who had the news immediately felt a sense of relief, because after knowing the general situation of the enemy, you have the opportunity to make arrangements calmly. If there is no news at all, then you can only be as lenient as possible to the enemy. "The Duke of Blackpool? It is said that their family's light cavalry is very good." Barrett paused here, "But this family has not been around for a long time, and its foundation is not strong enough. So its strength is only good. That¡¯s all.¡± (To be continued.) 8
