Soul of Burning Steel

The sun was as bright as gold, shining on the icy stone path.

The three stood in the middle of the road in front of the tower, surrounded by soldiers and civilians. However, some smart people found that two of the two parties in the conversation were their immediate superiors, so after a while, the crowd dispersed, and everyone simply went back to do their own work.

Keeley's tone was not serious, it seemed that he was just asking. After all, a girl who looked like a teenage girl was not dangerous at all, and he didn't need to be on guard against it. At most, they were a little curious about what this little girl who had been following them wanted to do.

But it was clear that the other had a different opinion.

etc!

As a mage, even if he is old, Feng's perception and memory are still a level higher than that of a warrior like Kiri. He frowned, and his golden eyes shone with surprise: Silver level! Such a young Baiyin ...Sure enough, Keeley, take a closer look at the style of this dress!

Since she didn't intend to hide it, the silver-haired girl was not surprised that she was discovered.

But after hearing these words, not only Kiri, but even Yingying herself was taken aback for a moment. This Miss Shenji subconsciously turned to her side and looked at her clothes—white women's double-breasted military uniform. The dress is neither luxurious nor tacky, there is nothing strange about it, it is very ordinary.

But Keeley looked at it carefully, but he seemed to have found something. He nodded thoughtfully and said, You're right, I overlooked it... Yes, the design style is exactly the same.

(What the hell is going on with these two.)

Yingying frowned, a little confused about what the other party wanted to do. At first, it was just the masked soldier asking why he followed them. Why did the topic suddenly jump to clothing design?

Now she can't help but want to show her identity and prove that she is also loyal to the Moldavian lord—although it will be embarrassing to expose the fact that she got lost...

cough……

There was silence for a while, and then with a light cough, Feng walked in front of Ying. He bent down a little, looked straight at the silver-haired girl in front of him: Excuse me, what is your relationship with Mr. Amos?

Mr. Amos? You mean Van?

After subconsciously saying it, Ying immediately understood the reason for the clothing style discussed by the other party before - if Shenji's clothes were not deliberately changed, then after the magic power appeared, all the clothes that appeared were fixed styles, and the design style was very single. It can be said to be the same.

As long as you have been familiar with it for a long time, it is not difficult to find that the uniform on her body is the same style as the old magic machine of the previous generation.

really.

Although no formal answer was received, the result was the same. The white-haired mage nodded, he seemed very satisfied with his discerning ability: Whether it's Fan or the master's father's butler De, the design of the deacon uniform of the Moldavian family has never changed, even if it is changed to It’s the same with women’s clothing.”

The deacon family has followed the Radcliffe family for generations, and this generation is actually female. The half-elf warrior also understood the reason why Ying followed them: You should also come to see the young master, so let's go together.

This group of people seemed to have a slight misunderstanding of the existence of the God Machine.

Yingying sighed, but felt subtly relieved, she nodded and said softly, Okay.

—The conference hall, a few minutes later.

...The Kuroshio invasion, due to the appearance of the gold-ranked mammoth monster, caused more than a quarter of the city wall facing the Black Forest to collapse. Now it is being repaired urgently through the petrification spell of the elemental mage. After temporary statistics and The battlefield cleaning report shows that seven knights died in the line of duty, one hundred and thirty-one soldiers died in this battle, and nearly seven hundred were injured.

The white-haired mage had several scribbled reports in his hand, which he compiled when he sent Zorgen for treatment. Since the professional soldiers in the entire fortress were only in the early 2,000s, it was not difficult to count them, so although the reports There is no guarantee that the figures are completely correct, but the approximate numbers will not make a big difference.

Because when the city wall was breached, a few wild beasts broke into the interior of the fortress, causing some civilians to be injured. Fortunately, no one lost their lives.

Joshua was sitting on the bench in the meeting room. He stretched out his hand to take the reports Feng handed over, read them for a while, and then couldn't help but wondered: When I came here, I just saw the giant beast hitting the city wall, right? I don't know much about the previous situation, but just looking at the numbers, the loss this time seems not to be large, and it doesn't seem to match the tense situation before.

When he first saw the city wall collapse, he thought that at least a thousand people would die, so he fell directly, and then used strong techniques to kill the gold-ranked mammoth beast at the fastest speed. Otherwise, he could have Fighting for a period of time, finding out the weak points and killing them with one hit, I don't know how much easier it is than relying on pure brute force.

If we just look at the number of casualties, we only sacrificed so many people in the face of 50,000 wild beasts besieging the city, which is indeed not a big loss.

Keeley, who was standing aside, took the conversation at this time, and he shook his head. This half-elf warrior has been standing on the front line, understanding what's going on: Warcraft don't have many means of attacking the city, at most they can attack the city except for brute force. It’s the continuous wall climbing and piles of corpses, and most of our city walls and fortresses are protected by T-shaped structures. Facing this kind of opponent, theoretically, we should be at an absolute advantage.”

But in fact, even though we have an absolute advantage in defending the city, and even have hundreds of silver warriors to clean up the monsters that are climbing the city wall, we still lost all our troops under the crazy beast's attack without hesitation. The satellite fortress lost a lot of supplies and heavy equipment, and countless enchanted arrows and alchemy products were spent on the defense of the fortress... In addition, the opponent also has golden monsters. There are not many survivors left.

This was indeed not a lie. If Joshua hadn't arrived in time, the unstoppable mammoth could indeed destroy the entire fortress.

Fortunately, what humans are best at is using tools to create an advantage for themselves. Two thousand regular troops plus the usual militia training troops are completely enough if they are just defending the city. It is impossible for Nei to attack the city wall so quickly.

And when the giant mammoths attack, they don't care whether it's monsters or humans that are trampled into fleshy mud under their feet, so after a gap in the city wall, the number of beasts that dare to rush directly up is not many, and within a few seconds, Joe Xiuya descended from the sky, beheaded the golden beast, and then frightened the entire herd away.

From this point of view, it is indeed normal that the loss is not large, but as Keely said, the consumption of enchanted arrows and alchemy shells is indeed a large expenditure. Joshua is now starting to worry, Moldavia Is it possible to come up with this money.

And, in any case, many people died for it, and this would have been an avoidable loss.

This world, which looks like a game, is undoubtedly true. Death is death, and there is only one life.

However, it is probably because of this that I want to pursue something.

Thank you for your reports.

Putting away the scribbled report in his hand and handing it to Yingying standing behind him, Joshua thoughtfully said to the two, Although there are still some information that is not perfect, but now I can see that the two I'm very tired, so I won't say much, you will give me a formal document in a few days, Feng, and that's all for today.

Yes! My lord.

Before leaving, Feng seemed hesitant to speak, but finally spoke after Keely opened the door of the meeting room.

Maybe it's an illusion. The old mage said: Master, I remember feeling the breath of that thing that you took out from the body of the giant mammoth before.

Feng, are you sure?

Have you ever felt the breath of Haiyuan derivatives?

Hearing this sentence, Joshua, who was originally in deep thought, suddenly became serious. He even took out the silver egg-shaped object that was still curled up from his pocket, and handed it to the other party: Look at it, Recall carefully, where is the breath of this?

... White Dragon.

After receiving the silver egg transformed from the Haiyuan derivative, the white-haired mage sensed it with his spirit, and then said with incomparable certainty: A few months ago, I felt a similar fluctuation in the group of white dragons in the snowfield. .”

Recently, the plot is transitioning, and there will be a third update tonight, and I will soon enter the main topic of this volume...

If you think there is something wrong with this book, please don't hesitate to reply and tell me what is wrong.

By the way, I will explain how the protagonist became the leader of this battle group in the extra episode... In fact, he knows how to fight the boss, but he doesn't need to know the story behind the boss. After all, the game is different from this real alien Compared with NPCs, people communicate more with each other. There are still a small number of fanatics who like to have a deep understanding of the game's story setting and remember it clearly.
