Soul echo

Chapter 730

When you look up, you can see that the top of the mountains in the distance has a winding Great Wall shaped like a crawling dragon.

Lilian raised her hand to wipe the sweat off her face, and exhaled a hot breath.

Finally arrived - the Great Wall!
This is her destination, the Great Wall frontier.

The tall city wall forcibly raised the mountain by more than ten meters. Such a height can basically prevent the enemy from overtaking, not to mention that there are sergeants patrolling back and forth on the city wall all the time.

They don't patrol with their legs, they use rail cars, so that's fine.It is enough to preserve the physical strength to the maximum extent, and the vehicle will also be loaded with many weapons and equipment. If you encounter an enemy, you can immediately go into battle.

Lilian had just arrived here, so she certainly couldn't have personally experienced these things. The reason why she was able to know these things was entirely because the person who led her was a chatterbox.

——On the periphery of the Great Wall frontier, there is a circle of city walls, but the circle of city walls is relatively low, just to prevent people from destroying the Great Wall from the inside.

To get close to the Great Wall, you need to pass through several passes, and those passes are without exception heavily guarded.

Even if they pass through the pass, they need to be led by a guide to approach the Great Wall. In addition, if anyone wants to approach the Great Wall, they will be attacked by the guards of the Great Wall. You can't kill by mistake.

"Haha, girl, the Great Wall is ahead, my brother can only take you here, you take this thing and report to them!"

Saying that, the soldier leading the way gave Lilian a badge, waved to her with a smile, and turned to leave.

Lilian also waved her hand, then pinched the badge and looked back at the Great Wall.

The towering and majestic Great Wall is located on top of the mountains, and there is a beacon tower every kilometer. The walls of the city are covered with ballistas, and the number of ballistas facing the south is less than that facing the north.

Lilian pulled the rein, causing the steed to turn its direction.

The mountains rise and fall, and so does the Great Wall.

There is a fortress between the two mountains ahead, guarding the mountain pass. At the same time, this is also one of the only two reporting points for people outside the army to participate in the war.

Non-soldiers like Lilian can only leave the Great Wall through these two reporting points.

Lilian saw the ballista on the wall of the fortress turn around quietly, but perhaps because of the badge she held in her hand, the ballista didn't fire, but was aimed at her.

With her skill, it was not difficult to escape from the ballista attack, and now she would not be frightened by a few ballistas.

However, just because Lilian can do it doesn't mean that the horse under her can.

Before approaching the fortress, Lilian, who had been staring closely at the front, felt short. She looked down in panic, and found that her horse was already kneeling on the ground, trembling.

Her gaze was slightly dull, and after a while, Lilian sighed, got off the horse, took away her equipment and water bag, then unfastened the saddle and bit for the horse, patted its neck, and let it go .

Lilian strode her legs towards the fortress, and when she was far away, the horse stood up tremblingly, turned and ran away.

hum!
Suddenly a black shadow caught up with the steed and smashed its body into pieces.

After hearing the voice, Lilian turned her head to look, her face showing astonishment.

Then she saw the broken body fragments wriggling, trying to splice back together, this scene made her scalp tingle.

She brought that horse from Jingzhou and stayed with her for a month, but what did she see now?
When did the horse get infected by the abyss?Why did it become like this?

Lilian took two deep breaths, calmed herself down, and looked at the black fortress in the distance with complicated emotions.

She continued to walk towards the fortress, but when she approached the fortress, she realized that the fortress itself was not black, and the original gray of the wall was mottled between the 'black', so where did the blackness come from?

After thinking for a while, Lilian got an answer that made her feel horrified—these blacks might have been flesh and blood.

Even though this is the south side of the fortress, facing the interior of Dongtu, but if her horse was infected after entering this area, it is conceivable that what happened here made the guards of the fortress Soldiers are so nervous.

The gate of the fortress was closed, and Lilian didn't know what to do, so she raised the badge in her hand and shook it towards the city wall of the fortress.

Not long after, a hanging basket slowly hung down.

Lilian came to the city wall in a hanging basket, and immediately saw a row of armored soldiers standing in front of her, holding swords and shields in their hands.

"People from the Western Regions?"

These soldiers were covered in armor, and Lilian couldn't tell the difference between them with the naked eye. The only exception was the squad leader with a tuft of red tassels tied on his pocket.

"No, I'm from the Westland." Lilian replied 'truthfully'.

"Western people?"

Although she couldn't see the captain's face, Lilian knew that the captain must be frowning at this moment.

"Aren't you a mage?"

Hearing this question, Lilian couldn't help but ask back: "Are mages the only people from Westland who come here?"

"If you are not a mage, why did you come?"

The two stared at each other, dumbfounded.

After a while, Lilian suddenly realized: "I know what you want to say, because there have always been people from the West Land here, but the people from the West Land who came here are all mages, right?"

"That's it." The captain nodded.

"I'm also half a native of the East!" Lilian said, patting her chest, "My teacher is Zhong Ye, and I'm his only personal disciple right now...By the way, do you know the name 'Zhong Ye'? "

"Boss, is he the author of our new textbook?" A soldier whispered in the captain's ear.

The little captain was moved, "The Zhong Ye you are talking about, is it the Zhong Ye who wrote "Tuna Fa" in the book?"

"Hmm! That's my teacher!" Lilian narrowed her eyes and smiled proudly, "He has been to Westland and became a legend in Westland. I am his disciple in Westland. Don't look at me like this. , I am an innate!"

Although there is no way to confirm Lilian's identity, but knowing that she may be the disciple of the author of their new textbook, the attitude of the soldiers eased a lot, at least their eyes on Lilian were no longer as sharp as sharp eyes. It gave her goosebumps.

"Then you came here to participate in the war?" The captain's tone was also milder.

Lilian nodded vigorously, "Of course it's for joining the war! Don't worry, the teacher knows that I'm here, and he agrees!"

Even the one and only personal disciple agreed to come to this bloody battlefield like a millstone?
All the soldiers were silent, and they didn't know what to say.

"Mr. Zhong... You are really a master!" The captain let out a sigh of emotion.

Then, he turned his head to look at a soldier, "Dashu, take this lady (note) down."

"Yes!"

The soldier put away his broadsword and beat his chest.

Led by the soldiers, Lilian took the elevator to the fortress.

The interior of the fortress is full of solemnity and strictness, the houses are like houses, every street is straight, every corner is a sharp right angle, just looking at it can give people a sense of seriousness.

Only soldiers patrolled the streets, no one else walked.

Even if they are also soldiers, the soldiers leading the way for Lilian will be questioned by other soldiers, let alone Lilian, who will definitely not be able to escape.

Although curious, Lilian didn't ask questions.

Even after entering the fortress, she temporarily turned off the live broadcast to prevent abyss believers from seeing these hidden things through her live broadcast.

——The earth also has abyss believers. After all, the abyss has invaded the earth before, and it is impossible to leave nothing behind.

Lilian didn't know this before, but after she knew it, she felt that she had an obligation to be careful not to let those potential abyss believers see any secrets.

"Girl, I can only take you here!"

When they arrived at the north gate of the fortress, the soldiers brought Lilian a horse. This horse was strong and had a bone spur growing on its forehead. It looked somewhat similar to an animal infected by the abyss.

When Lilian was a little dazed, the soldier handed her the reins, "Girl, please get on the horse, and then I will ask someone to open the side door for you. You go out through the side door, and then run straight to the north. It only takes an hour." , you can see another fortress, that is the real front line, please be careful."

Lilian took the reins, nodded seriously, and got on the horse.

The soldiers left, and she sat on the horse, looking at the side door ahead.

Although it is a side door, it is four or five meters high and extremely heavy. The whole thing is a copper plate and needs to be lifted with a winch.

She heard the sound of the mechanism turning inside the wall, and the iron chain kept sliding, and then, the door in front of her slowly rose.

The sun slanted towards the entrance hole a little bit, Lilian held the rein tightly, and softly shouted: "Drive!"

The steed immediately spread its limbs and galloped forward.

She left the fortress and walked towards the bloody battlefield!
