A few days later, Christine received a letter asking for help from the Half-Elf Territory of Cantabria in the Iberian Kingdom. To be precise, this letter was written to Savannah.

The number of elven master-level professionals far exceeds that of dark elves. However, after the demonic disaster broke out, the elves sent out an expeditionary fleet, which must have several masters to protect it. The dark elves also hired several masters from other races in the Underdark. There was not much difference in numbers between the two sides.

What's more important is that the elves are the defenders, and more masters are needed to protect the many villages and towns on the elf island. This calculation is not enough.

A dark elf team attacked the Cantabrian half-elf territory. Under normal circumstances, this would not be a problem, but there was a master-level assassin in this team, which was something the Viscount of Cantabria could not deal with.

Every time a professional advances to a higher level, their physical fitness will improve overall. Taking the physics department as an example, the agility of a master-level warrior is no worse than that of a mid-level thief, and vice versa.

All professions will obtain a specialty at level 5, 10, and 15. Whether it is a general expertise or a special expertise depends on luck, but what is obtained at level 15 must be a special expertise. The only exception is the Arcanist, who gains one specialty upon taking up the job, one more than other professions.

Take "Intuitive Dodge", one of the special feats that master-level assassins can obtain, as an example. The lower-level physics system requires two-on-one to compete, the lower-level two-level requires four-on-one, and the lower-level three-level requires six-on-one, which is a difference of three. Above the level, quantity cannot make up for it.

Of course, the master level is not a legend after all, and the army can be dispatched to fight for casualties, but the problem is that even an assassin will not be stupid enough to fight you head-on. Even if they are surrounded in the end, you can't stop them if they want to leave. .

Only the master class can deal with the master class. In this case, the Viscount of Cantabria asked for help from the Elf Island, but the Elf had too much to take care of, so he had no choice but to ask for help from the Stewart leader. He hoped that Savannah could help because of the fact that he was also an Elf.

Kristine waited for Savannah to finish reading the letter asking for help, and then said, "How should I reply to the letter?"

Savannah asked, "Do you want me to go?"

"It doesn't matter. It doesn't make any difference to me whether I go or not."

"But it will do you good to help them."

"Ah."

"Then go ahead."

"it is good."

The conversation between the two has always been so simple and direct.

Now that I have decided to help the Viscount of Cantabria, it is no longer a matter of delay. I will reply to the letter on the same day and set off by boat on the same day. At the speed of a battleship, I will arrive in more than a day.

In Astillero Port, three three-masted heavy cruisers slowly docked on the trestle, and the Viscount of Cantabria led the nobles and officials to line up at the pier to greet them.

The first to disembark were the Guards Cavalry, followed by Christine and Savannah, and finally the maids led by Elena and the Fox Sisters, while the servants were busy transporting the carriage off the ship.

Viscount Cantabria took a few steps forward and saluted: "Good day, Earl Stewart, Your Excellency Savannah."

"Good afternoon, Viscount of Cantabria."

The Viscount of Cantabria is a half-elf, with the same height as an ordinary person, slightly thin, and very handsome. Although his ears are slightly more pointed than humans, they are far less slender than those of elves. Wearing viscount attire, he wears the family crest on his chest. In addition, he also wears a badge representing the status of a sixth-level mage.

"Earl Stewart, please allow me to introduce you to the entourage."

In addition to the people from the Cantabrian Territory, there were also some senior generals from the Elf reinforcements, whom Christine had already met when they passed by Dominaria Port.

The port dock was naturally not a place to talk, so the group arrived at the manor of the Viscount of Cantabria.

After listening to the briefing, Christine understood that there were only five dark elves in this attacking team, and their main target was the reinforcements on Elf Island, mainly attacking patrols. Because there were master-level assassins among them, things were done very covertly, and at first I thought the attackers were demons.

It wasn't until they happened to encounter a team of demons during an attack that the three parties fought in a melee before someone from the elf side ran away and brought the news back.

After being exposed, the dark elves stopped covering up and directly blocked everyone in the city of Astillero.

It's impossible to say that no one can get out of the city. After all, there are so many gates in such a big city that even five people can't take care of them. But those who leave the city have to look at their luck. If they are unlucky and are spotted by the dark elves, they will definitely die. Even if hundreds of thousands of troops leave the city, they can't prevent master-level assassins from sneaking in and killing people at night, unless they don't sleep at night.

Of course, because there was a high-level mage tower built in the city, the dark elves would not come in within the nine-kilometer scanning range, so the stalemate continued.

While drinking tea, Christine asked: "With all due respect, Viscount Cantabria, can you determine the location of this team of dark elves?"

Viscount Cantabria was stunned for a moment, with an embarrassed expression on his face: "This..."

There are only five people in this team of dark elves. If you hide in such a vast place outside the city, tens of thousands of people may not be able to find them. Besides, the opponent also has a master-level assassin who is proficient in stealth and stealth, making it even less likely to be discovered.

The Viscount of Cantabria did send soldiers out to search, but he didn't expect Christine and Savannah to arrive so quickly. They arrived the next day after receiving the request for help. As a result, there was no trace of the soldiers he sent out. turn up.

He asked someone to come over for help, and not only did they agree, but they arrived quickly. But you can't even find the enemy here. What a big deal.

When Christine saw this situation, she immediately understood that she had been careless and asked a question that embarrassed the other party. But I’ve asked all the questions, let’s see how the Viscount of Cantabria responds.

"Earl Stewart, this...I have sent soldiers to search...this..."

The Viscount of Cantabria didn't know how to answer. He couldn't wait until he found someone before asking for help. It would have been several days by then, and the dark elves had already run away. But when the reinforcements arrive, we really don’t know how long it will take to find someone.

Seeing that he had no good solution, Christine said: "Viscount Cantabria, if you are willing to pay an extra ten thousand gold coins, I can try to solve the problem of finding the enemy."

"No problem, it's all up to you."

Although ten thousand gold coins is a lot, it depends on where it is spent. Now is a demonic disaster, and demons can appear in the territory at any time. When the time comes, your army will be restrained by the dark elves in the city and cannot be rescued, and the losses will be more than that.

This dark elf master-level assassin is like a stick in the throat. If he is dealt with earlier, the Viscount of Cantabria will be able to relax.
