After the meeting, Skar found Oster and wanted to ask him for another favor.
According to the division of labor, Oster, as the chief technology officer, has to return to the military factory in the Montenegro Mountains to ensure the normal production and supply of weapons and ammunition, while continuing to research and maintain the harvest puppets. Skar hoped that he would stop by the Xishan base to straighten things out on the way;
According to the report, after the rebellion broke out in the Xishan stronghold, the remaining officers and soldiers relied on the terrain advantages of the camp to barely repel the invading enemies, but most of the outlying towns fell into the hands of the officers and soldiers. Because the rebellion started from the indigenous faction, during the subsequent purge of the traitors, the battalion clearly favored the outsiders, imprisoning and falsely killing many innocent indigenous faction officers and soldiers, which chilled the hearts of many local gang members and left the team one after another. Even defected from the government;
The county guards and the Landlords Returning Home Regiment were still on the outside, ready to attack again at any time. Faced with such a critical situation, only a person with high ability and prestige can unite the army and the people again and stabilize the situation in Xishan.
When Auster heard that his scalp was numb, it was not difficult to understand Skar's thoughts: now that the north and south have fallen, and the east and west are in danger at the same time, the main force of the rebel army can only rescue in one direction, and has no choice but to choose the Dongxiang stronghold, which is closer and faces greater pressure;
But this does not mean that the safety of Xishan is unimportant. This place is an important granary and source of troops for the rebels. It is also close to the Montenegro Mountains, where the rebels' trump cards, secret warehouses and military factories are hidden. Once it falls into the hands of the enemy and the transportation routes for engineering weapons and ammunition are interrupted, the main force of the rebel army and the troops fighting in other areas will soon face the dilemma of running out of ammunition and food.
Skaar has too many things to do, so he can only count on others to be the lovable deputy gang leader. But what he didn't know was how weak and useless this villainous saint in everyone's eyes actually was.
Sashu Golden Finger is still started in energy-saving mode and can only be turned on and tested. Under the aura of Dihua, the deputy leader of Austria, he is a level 0 loser who will die at a touch.
Oster knew very well that dealing with conflicts between foreigners and locals could not be said to be dangerous, it was simply a life-threatening mission; if he was not careful, he would end up like the former captain. Price is already a very capable person, but he has been slapped with a black gun. How can he do better?
Originally, he had already stayed away from the front line, and wanted to take advantage of the rebel army's momentum to gain some prestige before leaving. Now it seems that joining the rebel party from the beginning could not have been a good thing.
Oster said in embarrassment, "Well, it's okay for me to do scientific research, but I can't handle being a judge. I won't be able to handle it well."
Skar said, "Don't be modest. I saw it when I visited various places before. They only serve you alone. Don't worry, you won't be allowed to go alone this time. Case will help you." The guards will also escort you."
Skar even sent his most trusted housekeeper and personal bodyguards to him, which shows that he attaches great importance to this matter. With no other choice, Oster had no choice but to bite the bullet and set off.
Everyone rides together, and it will take two or three days to reach it at the fastest. On the way, Pullman asked strangely, "Why don't we use magic to teleport? Deputy Gang Leader Ao is here."
I have met this handsome young man Oster many times. He is very capable. He is Skar's bodyguard and he has a good relationship with Marissa. Speaking of Marissa, I haven’t seen this kid for a long time. The war is in chaos and I don’t know where she went.
Within the rebel army, everyone was convinced that Auster was a great mage and a great knight, and he knew all kinds of magical and forbidden spells. Auster replied distractedly, "Skill cooldown."
He was always thinking about what to do next. After thinking about it, I suddenly realized that in the past few months, I had unknowingly been involved in this world too deeply;
Who is he? A dignified time traveler and a high-level person from another world, the meaning and mission of his existence here is to show off and slap people in the face. It's a good thing now that we've started a revolution in such a fussy way, and if this continues, all the readers will run away.
It's better to find a chance to escape. Although I feel sorry for these rebel soldiers and Skaar who treated me well, he is not a savior. There are some things where benevolence and justice are enough.
Injustice and oppression are unavoidable in any world; the universe is huge, the planes are numerous, and the stars are endless, and this will be the case forever. If he really had the ability to change the world, how could Wu Lian in his previous life have ended up dying suddenly while working overtime.
Thinking of this, Oster began to think about how to escape. With his high IQ of 85, he quickly came up with great ideas;
"Ouch! I have a stomachache... You go first, I will catch up later."
As he spoke, he dismounted his horse and burrowed into the grass, holding his stomach. The escorts looked at each other. The order they received was to protect the deputy gang leader at all times, so no one left first.
Auster waited for a while and felt troubled when he saw that these soldiers would not abandon him. What should we do? Should we force them to go ahead? Isn't it too easy for them to be discovered?
After thinking about it, he planned to run away from the other side. However, just after taking two steps, Keith left the grass and rushed over; "Deputy gang leader, why have you been silent for so long? Have you encountered an assassin?" "No, no, nothing happened. Don't come over! I didn't pull up my pants. Woolen cloth."
Oster followed Case out of the grass dejectedly and climbed back on the horse. When his plan failed, he began to try various methods again.
So during the rest of the journey, Deputy Gang Leader Ao kept asking for ridiculous things, such as seeing the scenery, digging out bird eggs, digging grass roots, catching sparrows, inspecting leaves, etc., all in just one hour. Pulled three times. Most of the day passed, and the team only walked a little distance.
Although everyone was a little surprised, considering that in their eyes, the red-haired villain was a big shot who always behaved strangely, but always unexpectedly and far-sighted in the end, they didn't say anything.
However, Oster failed to escape smoothly in the end, and the problem lay with Keyes;
This person is Skar's confidant and one of the earliest gang members. Responsible for logistics and technology, he always does things in a strict manner. At best, he is cutting corners, and at worst, he is stubborn. This time, he was entrusted by the leader of the gang to protect Oster, and he tried his best with all his heart and soul;
Oster dug out bird eggs and squatted under the tree, watching the scenery and watching the scene. He dug grass roots and chased snakes around. He even followed up to observe when he went to the toilet. As soon as there was any disturbance or the deputy gang leader left for too long or too far away, he would order the cavalry to search around as if he were facing a formidable enemy. Auster couldn't find a chance to escape at all, and was very annoyed.
When he was about to enter the mountain road, Oster suddenly had a flash of inspiration, his mind opened up, and he came up with a really good idea;
Previous checks on the power of the Sa Shu showed that the charging progress had recovered somewhat in the past few months, and the remaining energy was enough to support the release of one or two intermediate spells.
His plan was to take advantage of a little bit of spellcasting ability and find opportunities to pretend to encounter an accident on the road, such as falling off a cliff, or being eaten by a wolf while camping in the middle of the night, to create the illusion that he was dead;
In fact, he used magic such as teleportation to escape. In this way, not only can he escape boldly, but he can also give everyone an explanation and prevent them from looking for him everywhere.
What a genius idea! Oster even admired himself. Thinking of this, he quickly speeded up and rode into the mountains with his whip. Seeing that the weird ceremony of the deputy gang leader was finally over, everyone quickly rode up to follow him.
After walking for another half day, we reached a cliff deep in the hills, where we saw birds flying in fright, dust and mist rising, and signs of a large number of people and horses.
Case immediately told the team to take cover. Observing with a telescope, I found that it was an official army guard, mixed with a large number of people who looked like bandits. They should be the landlords' returning regiment. Looking along the direction they were traveling, not far away from the smoke, there was a village built under the cliff.
Seeing that the opponent was heavily outnumbered and had not yet discovered them, Keyes ordered the escort to take a detour and take their bells off their horses, without making any contact. At present, their first priority is to escort Oster to the stronghold camp, and must not cause unnecessary complications and increase the danger.
But Auster refused and insisted on going straight. And without any explanation, he had already galloped away and ran a long way along the rugged mountain road in a flash.
The reason why he was so anxious was that after walking so far, he finally found that the terrain nearby was steep and he could implement the plan of falling off the cliff. And if things don't go well, you can still rely on the assistance of the army. In a chaotic situation, it's easier to pretend to be dead, so that the rebels won't notice anything unusual.
When he reached the corner of the mountain road, he saw that the convoy coming from behind was not far away, so Oster rode his horse to the edge of the cliff, pretended to be caught by a branch, screamed, turned over from his horse, and fell off the cliff;
The process was actually quite dangerous, reminding Auster of the time when he peed his pants on the spot during his first bungee jump in his previous life.
But fortunately this is a magical world, and spells are equivalent to the most convenient and reliable safety ropes and parachutes. Just by chanting a spell easily, you can grow wings out of thin air and land safely;
However - [Error, Slow Fall (Level 1) requires casting materials: light feathers. 】
Auster was dumbfounded. "I made a big mistake, why didn't I tell you earlier!"
It was too late for him to struggle desperately, and he fell straight down with the scream of "It's the sun - it's the dog -". End.
