Demon Lord

Soon, the team that lit the torches in the dark set off for Kig Town. Horses were moving quickly in the forest. In addition to the necessary weapons and food on everyone's body, the scouts carried one by one on their backs. Black baggage, the temple guards also took shovels and hoes, they silently followed the team, and soon disappeared in the forest.

As time passed, when the eastern sky gradually turned pale, a sweaty scout appeared outside the gate of Houlier City, who was even running on a war horse.

He loudly woke up the soldiers guarding the gate, handed over the token in his hand, and then quickly headed towards the duke's mansion after the city gate opened.

It didn't take long for the Duke of Luciferon's mansion to rush out of several soldiers riding fast horses to report the news. They scattered towards various places in the city, including the monastery, the armory and some noble mansions with close ties in the past.

A few minutes later, the knight Titus who walked out of the mansion whispered a few words to the Duke of Angmar, then flicked the rein and roared away...

Let your eyes turn to Kig Town—when the rays of the rising sun finally appeared in the sky, Rody and others had already stopped at the edge of the Silent Whispering Forest outside the town, and began to station.

Most of the people in this team actually didn't have a clear idea of ​​what to do next, and even Wellington, Soderol and others didn't understand what Rody's intentions were before they arrived at their destination—so many soldiers had no idea what to do next. It's all a bit uncertain, because Roddy's behavior seems to be reckless.

But when the team arrived here, Roddy's arrangement made Wellington feel relieved: the team took turns to adjust their status, half of the people rested, and half of them began to dig traps and clean up the traces in the area by the forest.

The packages carried by the scouts contained large fishing nets. The town of Paar was built next to the river, and there were many fishermen in the village. Therefore, Luo Di collected more than 40 fishing nets directly in the village before setting out this time. , and let his subordinates hang them on the trees at the edge of the forest according to a certain height and arrangement rules, and he pulled Nata, Akasha, Wellington, Sodlore and others to start a battle in the center of the camp. previous meeting.

...The plan is roughly like this. Whether it succeeds or not, we at least have enough leeway to maneuver around.

Rody touched the wrist armor on his arm and said, because of the attack of the chain hammer, the Frost Iron Bracer was deformed and its durability dropped a lot.

Nata, be careful. If there is a situation like what I said, throw away the cloak, it will hinder your actions, and remember the way I said to avoid it.

He emphasized it to Nata in elven language, and the wood elf nodded, her eyes still cold.

Rody wasn't surprised by her reaction, and turned to Wellington and Sodlore and said, No matter what you encounter during the charge, Akasha will support you from behind.

Also... we must protect Akasha.

He glanced at the pastor with his head slightly lowered beside him, saw how his mouth was pursed, and said with a frown, Don't be nervous, just forget the method I taught you.

Well...well, yes.

Akasha clenched the ring tightly, and stammered a reply—she wasn't really nervous, but felt that Rody always emphasized the order to protect her, which always made her feel a little strange...

This is the approximate plan. Everyone should eat more and try their best to recharge their spirits. Soderol and Knight Wellington will come with me later, and we will confirm some things.

Rody looked up at the newborn sun, and his gaze stayed for a moment in the town of Keig two kilometers away, then he shouted to Carter: Choose six people, pretend to be mercenaries, and follow me.

yes

Okay, that's all for orders, disband.

The pre-war preparations are up to now, and all the plans have been fully implemented. Although Roddy made a sudden decision, he did not rush forward to fight directly under such circumstances-this made Wellington, who was originally dissatisfied with Roddy, also convinced .

Create a home field advantage amidst the away field disadvantage, and maximize the benefits brought by the initiative in a short period of time. All these actions can fully prove that Luo Di is an excellent battlefield commander.

In an era when illiteracy is everywhere and reckless men are as numerous as dogs, one who can recognize all the characters in the code can be called a scholar, and when he sees that Luo Di consciously considers tactics at the level of strategy , Wellington has admitted that he has a talent no less than that of the Duke of Angmar.

Of course, this is about combat—as for other aspects, he still has reservations.

After the arrangement was over, Nata took a short bow and rushed to the edge of the forest not far away, hanging the spare quiver on the predetermined treetop. Akasha and a few mercenaries planted the cloaks with messy leaves and weeds. She occasionally looked at Rody who was leaving, pursed her lips, and then lowered her head.

The Templars tied the horses in the forest, and Ruger and Carter supervised the making of the traps—during this period of time, they were not simply practicing horseback tactics, how to adapt to all-terrain combat, and how to fight under the most disadvantaged conditions. Survival is the essence of what the scouts have to learn as special forces.

And Rody, Sodlore, and Wellington pulled up their hoods and led six scouts into Kig Town in the early morning, heading straight for the tavern area where the mercenaries often live...

At the same time, Telanka, who was reporting the news to Ansadin, knew nothing about the silent arrival of Rody and others.

The details of those two mercenaries have been found out. They are members of the Iron Horse Mercenary Group. The team entered the Silent Whispering Forest a month ago. Now only two people have returned. Presumably the others are dead, and they brought The herbal medicine quality identification is here…”

Viscount Telanca was dressed in gorgeous clothes, with a decorative saber hanging from his waist. He should have looked handsome and suave, but at this time his posture was more servant than servant. He knelt down on one knee , holding a few pieces of parchment with both hands respectfully.

Ansardin's dead face had been gloomy and frightening since last night. Hearing Tranka's words at this time, it was rare to relax a little. He reached out and picked up the parchment to look at it, and said in a low voice: Advanced swift...intermediate level Mana...excellent six-eyed flowers, and Lingyin mushrooms? This is an unexpected harvest—how about the potion?

Although Ansardin is a pharmacist, he does not need to make such materials by himself, because the level of the potion itself is not high, but he collects these potions for future plans, in other words, it is a strategic reserve .

Tranka lowered her head and continued to answer: A total of seven bottles of potions have been placed in the pharmacist's guild and stored in your special storage box, and the news I got said...the two mercenaries will bring them after a while. The quality of the new herbal medicine will not change, and they have said that they want to cooperate for a long time.

Bring them here tonight, dead or alive. Ansardin gave the order blankly, and then rolled up the parchment, Cooperation? Heh... I don't have that time.

Back off.

Yes, Lord Ansardin.

Viscount Telanca bent over and left without raising his head from the beginning to the end.

Ansardin put the parchment aside, and when he turned around, the ground under his feet was already occupied by a huge puppet core magic circle.

At this time, there were thirty or forty pieces of magic crystals densely packed on the table, and the puppet sculptures were even piled up on the ground into hills.

On another shelf, there are rows of potions specially prepared by Ansadin - including Extreme Mana Potion, Awakening Potion, Wisdom Flower Potion, Grave Moss Potion and so on. .

Holding the gray elderberry wand in his hand, Ansardin glanced at a corpse lying on the other side of the tomb before starting to cast the spell, and his eyelids trembled slightly.

Although he didn't want to restore Magda's body immediately, but after last night, he still kept a trace of caution in his heart... The thirteen puppets are powerful enough to wipe out the town, but even the gargoyles were wiped out by those guys. Definitely not some enemy's coincidence or luck.

However, he didn't believe how powerful the villages and towns of the Karen Kingdom could be. It was Wellington who did all this to death. He just wanted to be safe in his affairs, but he was not satisfied with the puppet army to be summoned next. He forced Tranka to prepare all the materials used to repair Magda's body, so he was relieved.

I'd like to see what a scout captain can do.

The magic wand was waved lightly, the light flickered, and the magic circle slowly began to build...

On the other side, the door of a tavern in Kig Town was knocked open, and the sleepy-eyed owner was asked a few questions by a few guys dressed as adventurers in front of him. After taking a silver coin calmly, he hurriedly carried it He pointed to the upstairs and said something, then quietly hid aside.

The nine people stepped in, their silent and oppressive aura was far more terrifying than those miscellaneous mercenaries, so that the bartenders and maids didn't even bother to greet them, so they stepped aside one after another.

There was a knock on the door of a bedroom on the second floor, and the fat man who opened the door muttering obscenities was taken aback. He rubbed his eyes vigorously, and then put on a respectful expression to welcome people in—the first three walked in. , the six soldiers behind turned around and guarded the door, holding the hilt of their swords, with cold expressions.

Luo...Master Luo Di, I didn't expect you to come so early, I, I—

Don't be so nervous, just simply report your results.

Henry's original drowsiness had long been frightened away. At this time, there were some bottles and jars in his room. The box containing silver coins was locked and stuffed under the bed, and there were a few pieces of parchment on the table, which read There are a few lines of writing, the handwriting is crooked, but it can barely be read.

My lord, those herbs were exchanged for a total of seven bottles of potions and seven hundred and thirty silver coins. Their value... Henry whispered everything he had done, and then waited for Roddy's reply with some anxiety—his eyes From time to time, he swept over the two tall men next to him. As a mercenary, he instinctively sensed that these two men were powerful, but because Rody didn't intend to introduce them, he didn't dare to ask.

Luo Di reached out and picked up the potions, but his eyes stayed on the top of the potions for a moment, and then he showed a look of surprise—but this expression was quickly covered up by him, and after a while, he stuffed all the potions into his package , nodded and said: Good job, this time the transaction amount is 10% more for you.

Henry's eyes widened. Before he could thank him, Rody saw the parchment again and asked, You wrote it?

Yes, I wrote it, my lord... I have learned some of it before.

Roddy nodded, his eyes stayed on Buffon who was still sitting on the bed in a daze for a moment, and then he said: I came here today mainly for some new tasks. You two listen now, and you must complete it before this afternoon. .”

A few minutes later, the depressing guards in the tavern changed their formation and escorted the three of Rody out of here. After they left, Henry and Buffon also settled the room money, copied the boxes and walked towards the other side of the town. go…

The atmosphere in Kieg Town is still calm, but at this moment the undercurrent...began to surge.
