Chapter 84 The Scout’s Shock North bank of Hope River, city of Brest.
The scout team riding on the flying dragon mounts looked a little confused when they looked at the light of fire on the other side of the river.
"What are those green-skinned orcs doing?"
"The sound that came just now seemed to be an explosion. Could it be that the magician of the empire took action?"
"Commander Rhodes strictly prohibits provoking the orc army. Those losers will never dare to take action without permission!"
"Something is wrong, I seem to smell the smell of barbecue..."
All the imperial scouts looked at each other, and then all looked at the scout captain at the front.
"Go and see what's going on!"
The scout captain said in a deep voice, and the scout team immediately got up and flew their flying dragons, eagerly flying towards the foothill city where the fire was.
After crossing the river, the smell of barbecue in the air suddenly became much stronger, and the flying dragon mounts under the scouts seemed a little restless.
It was obviously caused by smelling a certain smell.
"What's going on? Why didn't you see the orcs' aerial scouts?"
One of them quickly lowered the flying height and observed the outer perimeter of Foothill City in the distance, and found that there were no orc soldiers standing guard even on the city wall.
Something is very wrong!
A group of orc scouts wandered around the outer area for a while, but never found any orc soldiers. Finally, they boldly tried to move forward.
The first person to reach the restricted area on a flying dragon was the scout captain. He had never reached this place during the confrontation with the Orc Empire for more than a month.
After being on tenterhooks for a while and still not seeing any orc soldiers coming out, finally the entire scout team dared to do something bolder.
They controlled the flying dragon mounts and jumped up directly, rushing towards the sky above the foothill city!
And when they finally reached a height high enough to see the inside of Foothill City, all the imperial scouts who arrived here instantly lost their voices.
In addition to the raging fire, there were only corpses as far as the eye could see.
From the appearance, these corpses can still be seen as green-skinned orcs. They are stacked layer by layer, and there are tens of thousands of them at least! This scene caused all the scouts who saw it to temporarily lose the ability to speak. Their brains were in a state of shutdown, and they had no idea how to describe what they were seeing! The scout captain was the first to react. He quickly pulled up the flying dragon rider again and immediately rushed towards the orc army's garrison in the outer area of Foothill City.
He has something to prove! The many scouts behind him suddenly reacted, and they all hurriedly whipped the flying dragon and quickly followed the scout captain in front.
When they flew to the camp area where the orc army was stationed, most of them had already turned around and could even speak.
The camp where the orc army was stationed was also a scene of fire. The hundreds of thousands of troops were all swallowed up by the flames, and not even a single person alive could be seen! The scorching flames below showed no intention of stopping. The flying dragon mounts of the scout team all looked extremely painful and were irritated by the flames.
"Captain! Isn't this an illusion?"
A scout spoke with difficulty. He looked down at the fire scene below, which was like an abyss and purgatory. It was obvious that he had not yet recovered from the shock.
"There are still 45 orcs stationed in Foothill City! It's just gone!!"
"What kind of power can do all this?"
"It must be a god!"
"Yes, the power of the gods can do all this!" The scout team said one after another, but the scout captain who had been silent noticed a flying object in the distance with extremely vicious eyes.
"what is that?"
The scouts suddenly looked in the direction pointed by the captain, and saw several strange-shaped flying objects floating in the sky.
These things don't look like birds, but more like creatures like golems.
The flying objects seemed to have discovered them a long time ago, but they did not take the initiative to attack them. Instead, they skipped everyone very quickly and headed straight for the foothill city.
"That seems to be the product of some kind of devil!"
"Are there still puppet masters in the empire?"
"Isn't this a profession banned by Emperor Mavia? Those who are good at making these things were either exiled or executed..."
"Is it possible that the original group of puppet masters came back for revenge?"
Everyone looked at each other, and this bold guess made them feel a little creepy. After all, in order to deal with the puppet master, the empire basically painted it as scary as an abyss monster.
It's just that the focus of everyone's attention is still here. The entire foothill city and the camps where the orc army is stationed outside have suffered devastating blows.
They were certain that the hundreds of thousands of orc troops would be completely wiped out! The flying dragons below could no longer bear it anymore and roared to leave. If they were not well-trained, they would have been thrown off the dragon's back.
The scout captain pondered for a moment and immediately signaled everyone to return to Brest City immediately.
The matter here is so big, Brest City may have already known about it. They will send back the detailed information after they return, and then it will be up to the Brest empire leaders to decide what is the right path.
A group of imperial flying dragon scouts quickly returned in the direction of Brest City, while several drones they called "golems" had just returned from Foothill City.
In the outpost, the drone pilot immediately reported the news of the Flying Dragon Scout's return, and was told to return immediately.
Just now, these military drones code-named HZ-300 discovered the imperial scout team dozens of kilometers away.
The ammunition carried by its drones was enough to kill the entire scout team in an instant, but because the main mission was not annihilation, the drone formation in the end bypassed the scout team and went straight to Foothill City.
Their main task was to confirm the current situation of Foothill City, and they arrived belatedly more than half an hour after Liu Ye's bombing.
In the absence of satellites, daily patrols by drone formations have become the new normal.
"The scout team should bring back the current situation in Foothill City."
"With Foothill City as an example, some trouble should be avoided by then."
Shi Jian stood in front of the table and pointed to the river in the hologram in front of him: "This river is called the Hope River. With this river as the boundary, the entire Coman Empire is divided into north and south. It is almost the entire Coman Empire. The mother river.”
"According to the information obtained from Irina, the most powerful military force in the north should be the splinter force of the empire, named Adriano Rono... It's almost the same name, let's call it that for the time being. Duke Rono."
"There are about 35 Coman Empire troops stationed here, and the commander is a general under Duke Rono."
"Irina's idea is to avoid casualties as much as possible. She wants to go to Brest City in person and win as much support as possible from the soldiers in the city."
