The Witcher: Son of the Planes.

After Sophia arrived at the headquarters, she was quickly brought before Polit.

"You said you have something important to report?" Pollitt asked directly.

"Yes, Lord Pollitt, I am here on behalf of the Victoria Islands. The person in charge here, Wizard Colin, accepted a mission from Lord Grimman some time ago and sneaked into the territory of the Kingdom of Dia. We could not contact him until we finally contacted him on the battlefield during the day."

"Oh? Colin? Let me think, it's the captain of the Victoria Islands law enforcement team." Although Pollitt had never met Colin, he was familiar with the list of captains of each law enforcement team under the Grimaldi Islands Security Affairs Branch.

"Yes, sir. He is also the person in charge of the Victoria Islands this time. He was originally responsible for the infiltration of the Dia Kingdom together with Clark and Daley from the Islands Alliance. As a result, Wizard Clark was killed and Wizard Daley was captured. He was very passive and finally passed the first round of identification."

"I already know about Wizard Kraka, but I don't know about Wizard Daley being captured. Wizard Colin's information is crucial. Didn't he retreat from the battlefield?"

"No, sir. He hopes to continue lurking there. He asked me to come here this time to ask the command for the next task."

"I'll think about what to do next and then let you know. You go back first. Victoria Islands, right? I'll keep a record of your achievements."

Pollitt didn't want to tell the demon leader here about Colin's lurking there. He was still thinking about how to make better use of this situation, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure it out.

After arriving at Satus this time, it was obvious from his command that there was nothing new. It was really difficult for him to come up with any ideas. If this kind of battle was not too difficult, Griman would not have chosen him to be responsible for this section of the war.

"Call the wizard Interlite." If you can't figure it out, just find someone who is good at thinking, Polit told his subordinates.

Not long after, the Interlite wizard came to Polit's tent.

(Interlit is from the Griman Academy, a veteran second-level wizard. He followed Polit this time and is considered one of his staff assistants.)

"Master Pollitt, you're looking for me?"

"Well, the situation is like this..." In a few words, Pollitt explained the situation on Colin's side that Sophia had just reported, and expressed his general thoughts, hoping that the Intelite wizard could provide a good idea or thought.

"Well... in a large-scale war, Wizard Colin can't play much of a role even if he is on the other side. At most, he can understand the other side's personnel deployment. In fact, we don't care about the other side's personnel deployment at all. As long as we can contain the other side's high-level combat power, we can advance quickly. After all, the armies of slave creatures and demons are not afraid of losses."

"Well, go on." Pollitt listened to the Intelite wizard's analysis, which made some sense, so he let him continue.

"The Aesiriya plane is not small to begin with, and the war cannot be ended all at once. If we really want to take advantage of Wizard Colin's latent status, it would be best to let him perform meritorious deeds and improve his status and position there so that he can play a greater role."

"Achieve merit? Just kill as many enemies as possible on the battlefield. Isn't that easy? With his skills as a second-level wizard, if he kills as much as he wants, he will soon achieve merit, and great merit."

"Well, Lord Pollitt, it's not so easy to achieve merit. What's more, he is just an ordinary city guard. Killing so many people is not in line with his strength. This is not a merit, but an exposure..." The Interlite wizard was speechless.

Although knights are inferior to wizards in terms of mental power, it is a bit too much for a third-level sky knight like you to think so simply. What you just said is not in line with your identity as a commander at all.

"Oh, that's right. You have thought it through carefully. How about revealing some information to Colin and letting him report?" Pollitt had a new idea.

"Sir, I think your idea is good, but we can contact Wizard Colin first. Suppose our army is going to launch a sneak attack at a certain time, and then it is discovered by Colin on patrol. If we give a warning in time, will it be considered a meritorious service?"

"What kind of credit is this? It's too small." Pollitt hesitated.

"Sir, Wizard Colin is just an ordinary city guard now. He can't take on such great credit." Intelite was still patiently persuading Pollitt.

"Forget it. I'll just hand it over to you. We'll use the people from the Victoria Islands. You can contact that Sophia just now. I wonder how long it will take for him to improve his status. I'm too lazy to think about it." Pollitt finally gave up the idea of ​​thinking about it himself and handed the matter over to Interlite.

After Interlite left, he quickly arrived at the Victoria Islands Legion's base, found Sophia, Edith and others, and told Sophia and the others about Pollitt and his own ideas.

Soon, several people agreed on a "rough" plan. It was too late today. After the fighting was over tomorrow, the sneak attack plan would be implemented at night. If Colin, who happened to be on patrol, discovered it and prevented the sneak attack, Colin the wizard would definitely be credited with merit.

……

After a night passed, neither side had any intention of starting a war, but the war began early the next morning. The fighting on all sections of the battle lines on both sides was very fierce, and there was not much difference from the previous day, the only difference was that the wizard legion and the demon legion also dispatched some high-level combat forces.

These were all routine tests and consumption, but the situation was different for Colin downstream. William did not come today, but Edith ventured to the forefront of the battle line and told Colin about their plan with Interlite last night.

Colin understood what the command meant, and after pretending to fight for a while and randomly killing two or three slave creatures, the battle for the day ended again.

Although both sides had no plans for a night battle, the natives of the Acillia plane did not dare to relax and arranged patrol personnel to be on duty every night.

According to the duty arrangement, Colin's duty was scheduled for ten days later, but Edith had already told him the command's plan. When he was worried about how to conduct the patrol properly, a Cambrian city guard came to him.

"Colin, I have something to do in the evening. Can you patrol for me today?" the man said somewhat embarrassedly.

"This is not good. The Joint Command has given an order. We can't just replace people casually. It's still more than ten days before my turn." It was like a pillow hitting the wall, but Colin still pretended to be unhappy and said this.

"I've already made an agreement with the captain. You can take my place for one day, and I'll take your place when the time comes. I really have something to do today."

Although Colin wanted to agree, in order to avoid subsequent trouble, he continued to say awkwardly, "Why don't you ask the captain to talk to me in person? I really don't dare to replace you rashly. If something goes wrong, I can't afford it."

"Well, okay, let's make a deal. If the captain asks you, you must agree."

"No problem, as long as the captain says so, I will definitely agree."

The man quickly went to the captain for help. For some reason, the captain agreed to help. Seeing that Colin was willing to help, he also agreed.

After dinner, Colin followed the captain to start his night patrol mission.

The man who asked Colin to replace him, after dinner, "sneaked" out of the base with several other city guards, as if he had gone to a place to "gamble".
