The higher-ups of the resistance army had a discussion about the escaped Lord Galantis.
"Our sneak attack was so fast, so how could Galantis escape the city so quickly?" Bai Xiaowen frowned and asserted after listening to the argument of several rebel leaders. "I think it's very likely that she's hiding, along with the elite guards around her."
"If this woman is hiding in a secluded area in the north palace, then when the Imperial Army counterattacks, she and her guards will become a problem for us, just like Aulen and the others," Grima said.
Everyone agreed. In this battle, if it were not for Ao Lan and the other resistance army spies providing information and destroying the capstan of the city gates, it would not have been so easy for the resistance army to take down North County City.
"We need to search the north palace. Even if we have to dig three feet into the ground, we need to find her." Grima concluded. "Plus, the north county has been ruled by the Empire for too long. Although most of the Vikings are still hot-blooded, we can't rule out the possibility that there are corrupt forces there. To be safe, the north county needs to undergo a bleeding operation to become healthier. "
This was a very artistic way of saying it, but what it actually meant was that they needed to clean up.
This was something that had to be done. Most of the existing nobles in the north county had vested interests under the rule of the Imperial Army. The arrival of the resistance army had violated their interests, so they would definitely hate the resistance army. Once the Imperial Army attacked, these nobles who were loyal to the Empire would be a hidden danger.
Especially since the resistance army only had 600 people brought by Grima. To defend the entire city, they were too weak and could not deal with the situation of being attacked from both inside and outside.
Due to this consideration, Bai Xiaowen did not express any objections. He only cautiously expressed that the 'operation' could not be expanded without limits. If they caused panic, it would not be beneficial for the resistance army to gain a foothold in the north county.
Under the guidance of Aulen and the other resistance army spies, a group of nobles who supported the rule of the Imperial Army was found. There was no trial, no review, and they were directly sentenced to death.
The Viking Army soldiers who contributed greatly led the Resistance Army to clean up the civilian area. The ethnic conflicts that had accumulated over time finally erupted, and this' bloody surgery 'inevitably started to escalate.
The people of the Empire living in the north county were naturally wiped out. In addition, the wood elves who looked similar to the High Elves and the brown tribe, whose skin color was obviously different from the Vikings, were also wiped out.
Under Bai Xiaowen's suggestion, Grima did not directly kill these people. Instead, he chased them out of the north county.
Sitting on the stairs of the north palace, Li Shuyi whispered to Bai Xiaowen, "Xiaowen, I realized that the resistance army is not good people." She and Bai Xiaowen were assigned the task of searching the North Palace.
.......... maybe their blueprint....................... the..................................... was.....................................
. Li Shuyi nodded in agreement.
. "From a moral point of view, I don't agree with this purge, but I can't deny the effect of this operation," Bai Xiaowen said. "Our hero's side mission, Surprise Attack on the north county, was completed after the purge."
Bai Xiaowen looked at the mission record as he spoke.
"The Northern resistance army has occupied more than 75% of the important areas in the north county."
"B-rank hero's side mission: Surprise Attack on the north county, completed. Please find the leader of the resistance army, the Usok, or Grima to submit the mission. "
Li Shuyi sighed. "Okay, it's a good thing to complete the mission. We can't care too much."
Bai Xiaowen smiled. "Let's not talk about this. Previously, in the court of justice, I killed Judge Hurd. I opened a golden treasure chest to refresh myself."
As for Judge Costello, although Bai Xiaowen took a hit, he didn't drop a treasure chest. This was because more than 95% of the damage was done by Kevin.
Chief Judge Hurd's kill score was B, and he gave Li Shuyi two chances to draw. Although Li Shuyi did not contribute to the kill, with Bai Xiaowen's permission, it was still within the rules of the Spiritual Realm to draw some loot cards for fun.
Of course, the two of them were in a permanent team. Even if the items were bound, they could trade with each other. Li Shuyi didn't contribute to the kill.
In the first draw, he got a "Badge of Justice", which could be exchanged for 1,000 achievement points.
In the second draw, Li Shuyi got a skill book.
[Law Punishing Skill Book: Teaches you the Law: Punishing Skill (Two Stars).]
Bai Xiaowen looked at the skill description of the Law: Punishing Skill. Compared to Feng Zi-ang's "Punishing Skill" in his memory database, this one also dealt holy damage. However, the basic damage was increased, and the bonus was increased from light damage to medium damage. Presumably, the bonus coefficient was also increased.
After all, it was an item from a high-level leader. Of course, it was extraordinary. According to Feng Zi-ang's description, his "Punishing Skill" was a lucky drop from a normal monster.
"Sir!"
Two resistance army soldiers came and saluted Bai Xiaowen. "Sir Dior, we didn't find the fake Lord Glendis in the North Palace. However, we found a secret passage!"
"A secret passage?" Bai Xiaowen frowned. "Take me there. Also, ask Sir Grima to come here. "
Not long after, in Glendis' cloakroom, which was the entrance to the secret passage, Grima led his men to meet Bai Xiaowen again.
As soon as they met, Grima said with a smile, "Brother Dior, you have made a great contribution to the capture of Northshire City!"
The Spiritual Realm's rules prompted:
"B-Rank Hero Side Mission: Surprise Attack on Northshire has been submitted. Mission completion rate: 91% (Excellent). "
"Your reputation in the Northern Resistance Army has greatly increased. Current reputation level: Reverence."
"Based on your contribution in the siege, you have received 7,100 achievement points."
Bai Xiaowen exchanged a few special items that could be exchanged for achievement points. There were four items in total:
The "Empire Silver Medal" from Alberta, the leader of the heavy knights, could be exchanged for 1,000 achievement points; the "Patrol Token" from Massa, the patrol captain, could be exchanged for 1,000 achievement points; the "City Guard Commander Token" from Nazir, the commander of the city guards, could be exchanged for 2,000 achievement points; and finally, the "Coat of Justice" from Chief Justice Hurd, could be exchanged for 1,000 achievement points.
Including the achievement points from the trade permits, Bai Xiaowen's team had accumulated a total of 13,300 achievement points.
"Show the achievement points exchange list."
Bai Xiaowen's words made Grima, who had just opened his mouth, enter the state of a human ATM machine.
Bai Xiaowen first exchanged for a bottle of Red Dragon Blood, which cost 10000 achievement points. Then, he spent another 3000 achievement points to exchange for a Gold-grade one-handed sword for Li Shuyi.
The standard Gold-grade equipment on the exchange list was very complete. The name was generally called "Resistance Commander's XX". For example, the one-handed sword that he exchanged for was called "Resistance Commander's Sword".
From the name, these equipment were very similar to the naming rules of equipment sets. Of course, there was a big difference.
The Resistance Commander's Sword had no special skills. The only highlight was its high attack power, which added 10 to 20 attack power, which was two or three points higher than the "Red Leaf Lord's Glorious Longsword"!
Compared to Li Shuyi's original off-hand weapon, the "Refined Rapier", which had a basic attack of 4 to 10, it had more than doubled.
When the clearance interface was strengthened again, Li Shuyi's dual-sword output ability would increase again.
"Xiaowen, there's no need to spend the achievement points in such a hurry, right?" Li Shuyi was of course very happy to get a new weapon, but she still looked at the big picture. "We still have nearly ten days to stay in the Aaron Plane World, and there will be many battles in the future … It's better to save the achievement points and exchange for more dragon blood. I think the value of dragon blood is higher. "
Bai Xiaowen exchanged for three more pieces of food, spending all of his remaining achievement points, and then said, "I'm not going to give you anything.
"No … This time, we were able to uncover the hero mission of the surprise attack on the North County, and we only earned more than 10,000 achievement points in five days. This kind of mission can't be triggered by the ability to curry favor. The right time, place, and people are indispensable … Next, our focus will shift to the elite challenge mission and investigate the sealed secrets of the North County Monastery. It's likely that we won't have time to do the faction mission of the Resistance Army. "
After a pause, Bai Xiaowen said again, "In addition, I have a bad assumption … If we have a head-on conflict with Kevin, our reputation in the Resistance Army is very likely to face an avalanche, and it will be too late to exchange for achievement points. After all, it's better to save up so many achievement points. "
The food that Bai Xiaowen exchanged for were three salted fish …
[Air-dried Salmon: Food. After eating, recover 2 HP per second for 30 seconds.]
The recovery rate of this food was very powerful, recovering a total of 60 HP. However, it wasn't instant recovery and took too long, which was a flaw.
After the exchange, Grima returned to normal and said,
"Dior, that b * tch Galantis should have escaped through this secret passage, right?"
Bai Xiaowen quickly got into character. "Looks like it. I just don't know where this secret passage leads to … "
Grima immediately ordered two Resistance Army soldiers to enter the secret passage to explore.
After a while, the two Resistance Army soldiers returned and reported that the secret passage had two exits. One was in the civilian area of the city, and the other was outside the city.
"What a cunning b * tch," Grima sighed.
Bai Xiaowen said, "Now that the city has been purged, we haven't found any trace of Galantis. She should have escaped outside the city. However, it's better to get rid of this secret passage. Otherwise, if the Imperial Army attacks and sneaks into the city through the secret passage, it will always be a hidden danger. "
Grima agreed. "I'll immediately send people to dig up soil and stones and completely seal the secret passage."
Bai Xiaowen had no doubts about the civil engineering ability of the Spiritual World's people. Just think about how he used bandits as human locomotives to transport supplies in the Cain Plane …
Bai Xiaowen thought for a moment and said, "Lord Grima, the Northshire City has been taken down. I shouldn't be needed in the city for the time being. I'm going to the Northshire Monastery to investigate the nuns. "
Grima slapped his thigh and said, "That's right, we can't let go of this monastery. I was just about to ask you to investigate it. Now that you're willing to take the initiative, it's best."
Logically speaking, the monastery was a neutral camp and didn't get involved in political struggles. However, there was a saying that where there were people, there would be conflicts. Where there were conflicts, there would be disputes.
The monastery believed in the Lord of Light, but what did the Vikings believe in? The God of War, Ista.
Religious differences had always been one of the important factors for wars in the Middle Ages. In the Aaron Plane, the Lord of Light that the Empire believed in and the God of War that the Vikings believed in were a hidden line in the struggle.
The Northshire Monastery and the Viking Resistance Army were natural opposites.
Bai Xiaowen demonstrated a textbook example of currying favor to Li Shuyi. After Grima said something, he took the opportunity to say, "Can you arrange a team of elites for me? I can directly flatten the monastery."
Grima looked troubled. "We only brought 600 people with us. We lost some brothers in the battle, and the remaining people defending the Northshire City are already very tight … Brother Dior, please understand. Compared to the Northshire Monastery, the Northshire City is more important. We can't afford to lose it."
Bai Xiaowen of course expressed his understanding.
Grima continued, "The Great Wizard Kevin can't provide support … His magic is very useful in defending the city."
Grima didn't know about the relationship between Bai Xiaowen and Kevin. He said this to block Bai Xiaowen's request in advance. Kevin's AoE spells, as well as his single point kill spells, were indeed a trump card in the defense of the city.
If Bai Xiaowen asked Kevin to accompany the investigation, Grima would feel embarrassed if he refused.
Bai Xiaowen frowned and said, "But the Great Wizard Kevin and I cooperate very well. If he doesn't go, Charlotte and I will be a little weak."
"I'm sorry, Dior, try to overcome it …" Grima sighed. "We're short on manpower … When you go to the monastery, you only need to secretly investigate the movements of the nuns and try to avoid fighting."
Bai Xiaowen hesitated and said, "Then … Can you ask Master Kevin to give me some Invisibility Potions and Mute Magic Scrolls?"
"This request is very reasonable. After all, you're investigating the monastery for the sake of the resistance army. However, the Invisibility Potions and Mute Magic Scrolls are the personal property of the Great Wizard Kevin. I can persuade him, but I can't guarantee that he'll be willing to give them to you. Unless you're willing to … transfer the spoils of war distributed to you after this battle to the Great Wizard Kevin, "Grima said.
The spoils of war referred to the gold, silver, and coins that were plundered after conquering Northshire, especially after conquering the Northern Palace. According to the rules of the resistance army, they would be distributed to the soldiers who had performed meritorious deeds.
Bai Xiaowen said happily, "Those gold, silver, and other valuables are of no value to me. For the sake of the liberation of the Vikings, I even gave up the comfortable life of Waldren. Why would I care about these worldly possessions? Sir Grima, please make it clear to the Great Wizard Kevin that everything is for the Northern Territory. Please ask him to make a small sacrifice! "
