Chapter 58 Rescue Jessica
Roger heard the conversation between General Carter and Richard on the top of the city clearly. He was full of envy at this time. This was the deterrent power of the Holy Land Magister. He was not afraid of facing tens of thousands of enemy troops, but a commander of the other party was respectful to the Holy Land Magister of the enemy country. He asked him to stop for three days and not be allowed to attack, so he had to accept it.
I don’t know when I will be able to cultivate to the Holy Realm! Roger was full of infinite expectations for the Holy Realm level.
After Carter returned to the city wall, he said calmly: "Okay, I finally have three days to fight for. Let's go! Let's go and see Jessica!"
***************************************************************
"Master Carter, how is Jessica's condition? Can it be cured?" Roger asked anxiously after Carter treated Jessica.
"The poison of the demon-repelling agent in her has spread. Both elements, water and wind, are easy to spread. She has these two elemental attributes at the same time, so the toxins in her body spread faster than ordinary people. I just barely suppressed the toxins in her body, but it is still far from being completely eradicated. I must take her back to Empet City for treatment immediately!" Carter said at this time and picked up Jessica.
"By the way, Roger, are you going to go back to Empe with me? My griffin can carry another person!" Carter asked with anticipation.
Roger looked around the people around him, smiled, and then said, "Master Carter, thank you for your kindness. But there are my family and brothers here. Although my power alone is not too great, I think it will be helpful for me to stay. Jessica will ask you!" After that, he saluted Carter respectfully.
"Okay! It seems that Jessica is not wrong! Only a man who truly values friendship will not leave his family and friends and run away at this time!" Carter couldn't help but show an expression of admiration on his face.
Roger and others escorted Carter to the square in front of the church with Jessica. After Carter put on the griffin back, he said to Roger: "Roger, come here!"
Roger was stunned for a moment, then hurried over.
Carter whispered into Roger's ear: "Boy, if this city really can't be defended, don't be foolish to live and die with the city. Stay with the green mountains and don't be afraid of burning firewood. If you die, I guess Jessica will not live alone." After that, he quietly handed Roger a magic scroll.
"This is a random teleportation scroll. After you inject magic power, you can activate it and teleport you to a place a hundred miles away from your location. I believe this distance has already left the enemy's encirclement."
"Master Carter, thank you!" Roger thanked from the bottom of his heart this time.
"Haha, Jessica is my favorite disciple. I treat her completely as my daughter. You are now half of my son-in-law, so you don't have to be polite to me, the old man. Boy! Be careful!" After that, Carter held Jessica with one hand and waved to everyone with the other.
"Master Carter, there will be a date later!" Roger watched the black spots in the sky slowly disappear. Then he said to everyone in the square: "Let's go to the Council Hall of the City Lord's Mansion to discuss what to do next. Master Carter has won us a three-day buffer period."
******************************************************************
In the meeting hall of the city lord's mansion, everyone was worried when they sat on chairs.
Roger looked around and saw that in addition to Adams, Singer, Hawking, and Kate, the deputy commander of the City Guards they met when they entered the city.
Kate took the lead and said, "Let me talk about the whole process and results of this operation first. Starting this afternoon, we will follow the previous arrangement of His Royal Highness Singer, led by Singer to raid the command post of the City Guards and seize the commander of the City Guards. From him, we learned from the list of officers who had decided to surrender in the City Guards. Then we will capture all the rebellious City Guards officers according to this list..."
Speaking of this, he gave John a thankful look: "With the assistance of Vice Commander John, we quickly stabilized the morale of the City Guards. We also found thirty sets of uniforms of the City Lord's House from the City Guards' equipment library."
"Then we followed the plan of His Royal Highness the Princess, and the elites of the twelve guards and eighteen guards, dressed up as personal soldiers of the City Lord's Mansion, and sneaked into the City Lord's Mansion. After His Royal Highness entered the City Lord's Mansion, we began to act and gradually disarmed the various posts of the City Lord's Mansion and replaced them with our own people. However, when we captured the alchemist of Is, we encountered trouble. Although his magic level was not high, the various poisons and gases he made poisoned more than a dozen of us. In the end, Captain Hawking sent the gas mask designed by Master Roger, and finally caught him. But this guy committed suicide by taking poison before we caught him... Otherwise, we could find a way to force the antidote in His Royal Highness to the Princess from him."
"Oh, what about this man's body?" Roger asked.
"Before the Isles army came, we were buried in the mass grave outside the city. We killed many of the personal soldiers of Rudendolf in this operation. These bodies were buried in the mass grave." Kate explained.
"What? Does Mr. Roger feel something is wrong?" he asked in confusion.
"I was wondering, why did this man commit suicide so easily... Forget it, let's not talk about this matter, let's talk about the current situation in the city." Roger was a little strange, but he quickly threw it behind his head. The most important thing in front of him was how to deal with the difficulties.
"At present, the City Guards have been cleaned up and all the Ludendorff's confidants have been arrested. However, in this way, almost all the grassroots officers of the City Guards have been replaced. So now the soldiers of the Guards temporarily act as grassroots officers. But since we have reimbursed the arrears of military pay to the City Guards, there has been no disturbance in the City Guards. However, due to poor training and never fighting a big battle, it may be difficult for them to defend the city." Kate said with a worried look on his face.
"But no matter how difficult it is, we must find a way to defend Hetante City! At least we have to drag it out for a while." Singer and Adams said in unison. They had learned from Carter that the situation Bisos is currently facing. If Hetante City is lost, the Issian army will penetrate south and lead the rear of Renos. After capturing Renos, Jepeng's army will drive straight in. It is estimated that even if Baisos does not fall, he will be labeled as a small principality.
"I also want to defend Hetante City, but how can the city guards, guards and garrisons mixed with poor morale with only five thousand equipment and training? How can the troops that are mixed with the city guards, guards and garrisons resist the attack of the 80,000 Is regular army?" Kate said after sighing.
