Lord Helanza

In the woods, twenty-five platoons, including the Knight who did not become a knight, gathered together, and four Great Captains, including Viscount Emmet, at the same time Looking surprised at the note in Surdak's hand.

For a while, the atmosphere in the woods was a little frozen.

The ordinary Knights around who were resting in the forest also felt what seemed to be happening here, and gathered from under the trees all around.

Whether it’s the Knight who stayed behind, or the Knight who won the “departure”, almost everyone looked towards Surdak with complicated eyes, so that the scene was a little quiet, and it was said in the woods. The rustle of the leaves blowing in the wind, and the occasional wailing of the hell dog in the distance, sounded a bit oozing.

There is no doubt that everyone hopes that Surdak Knight can join his camp.

For the headquarters of the guard camp responsible for containing some of the hell dogs in the small town, Surdak’s remaining role seems to be greater. After all, Surdak with Holy Light Power can make the injured Knight recover the battle as quickly as possible. Strength, the guard battalion is about to usher in a hard battle. This battle is doomed to be casualties. If Surdak can stay, the lives of many injured Knights will be guaranteed, and the fighting state will be greatly different.

For the reconnaissance squad, Surdak not only has a powerful primary level top-level magic-weave armor, but also a veteran with rich combat experience. It is the last guarantee for several members at critical times, so of course everyone I also hope that Surdak can stay in the reconnaissance squad.

But it is obvious that Surdak joining the investigation squad is definitely not as effective as staying.

"Great Captain, let Surdak Knight stay!" A Knight shouted out from the crowd.

Someone in the crowd took the lead to speak, and naturally someone echoed: "Yeah, yeah!"

But there are also many Knights who choose to be silent. Everyone is the fairest. If Surdak stays, those platoon chiefs who have won the'stay' draw will have to draw another round again. This is a bit embarrassing for them, but at this time they did not come forward. , Willing to participate in the investigation mission for Surdak.

So everyone focused on Viscount Emmet, who is the highest commander of the guard battalion and has a veto.

Viscount Emmet hesitated, he looked at Surdak and slowly said, "Surdak Knight, I want to know what you think."

Surdak looked all around At a glance, the Knights who were eagerly watching here stood all around.

Humility, honor, sacrifice, bravery, compassion, honesty, fairness, and spirit are the basic qualities that Knights need to possess. But nowadays, few Knights in the guard camp still insist on these things. At least when self-sacrifice is required, there are not many Knights who can stand up courageously. After all, only by living can you enjoy a luxurious life.

Surdak said firmly to Viscount Emmett: "Since the choice of Wheel of Fate, then I want to join the investigation squad."

Viscount Emmett heard Surdak say this. , Sighed in relief.

"Is this what you really think?" Viscount Emmet asked Surdak seriously.

Such a choice does avoid a lot of unnecessary troubles, but he needs to know if this is what Surdak thinks.

Surdak said again: "Yes, Viscount Emmett."

Viscount Emmett took a step forward, patted Surdak's shoulder with his hand very pleasedly, and gave Surdak a gratitude. Said: "Very good, I appreciate your courage and choice very much. If I have the opportunity to return to Helanza City together in the future, I hope to see you at the Manor Ball!" said Viscount Emmet. , Is a disguised affirmation of Surdak.

Surdak hurriedly said: "It's an honor, Lord Viscount."

Since it was Surdak's own choice, the other guard battalions, Knight, certainly wouldn't say anything more. .

At this moment, a light silhouette jumped in front of Viscount Emmett, and looked at Viscount Emmett with pale red eyes. Her long legs immediately attracted a lot of Knight. Her gaze, the forest bow and quiver behind her back also made her very eye-catching in the Knight team.

Viscount Emmet knows this half-elf archer guide, she is a newly recruited security team member of Surdak, she just led everyone to climb a steep mountain wall into this forest, so He decided to give Samira a chance to speak.

Viscount Emmet pursed his lips and stared at Samira.

"Viscount Emmet, I want to join the investigation squad." Samira said to Viscount Emmet.

As soon as Samira’s voice fell, a strong voice sounded at the right time: "I want to join the investigation squad too!"

The speaker is the native warrior Andrew, he He was trying hard to squeeze towards the center of the crowd from the outermost periphery. In order for everyone to notice him, he even raised one hand high, with thick bandages wrapped around his arm. In the eyes of every guard camp Knight, those bandages are actually so. The dazzling.

Viscount Emmet hesitated and wanted to refuse immediately, but he still decided to give them a chance, so he said: "Tell me about your reasons, if I can say a reason that I cannot refuse , I will consider agreeing to you!"

There is indeed a need for such a brave voice in the guard camp. Although Viscount Emmett will not agree, he also looks forward to the Knights under his staff who can stand up with their chests. However, Viscount Emmet was a little disappointed that apart from Samira and Andrew, no Knight had such courage.

At this time, Viscount Emmett could only sighed secretly in his heart, and then he looked towards Samira again.

Samira raised her white neck, pale red eyes with a kind of pride, or it can be said to be a kind of sarcasm.

She glanced at the surrounding Knights and said softly: "I am familiar with Meijin Town. I know the most remote road that can take everyone into the town quietly."

Her sweet voice always seems so incompatible with her cold appearance.

"You successfully convinced me, welcome to join, Archer, say your name." Viscount Emmet said.

Viscount Emmet was nodded to Samira to show his affirmation.

"Samira." The half-elf archer replied concisely.

"What about you? Warrior, what reason do you have?"

In order to show his fairness, Viscount Emmet asked the native warrior.

Although Andrew looks rough, but his mind is extremely delicate, he took a step forward and said loudly to Viscount Emmet: "This is the gathering place of our Nanai people. We originally lived in a small town. Most of them are my clansman. Our Nanai people have special symbols and marks. I want to go in and see if there are any survivors in the town, and maybe I can find some clues that others can't find."

Vs. Emmett’s heart secretly sighed: The two joined the Helanza guard battalion and got their approval yesterday. At that time, I still couldn’t understand Surdak’s choice. Usually the guard battalion Knight was branded with Helanza, but these two Obviously a resident of Vojmara City, it stands to reason that he is not eligible to join the guard battalion. But after all, it was Surdak who chose his own security squad member, and Karl came forward to intercede, and Viscount Emmet readily nodded agreed.

It seems that Surdak was really insightful yesterday, and I don’t know how correct his choice was.

Viscount Emmet took a serious look at Andrew again, and said to him: "Well, I can't refuse this reason, warrior, let me introduce myself to everyone."

"Nanai warrior Andrew, Surdak is my Captain."

Andrew didn't have any stage fright, and said to the surrounding Knights.

……

The commanders of the three guard battalions also need to study which guard battalion they choose as the battlefield to entertain the hell dogs outside the town.

At least this battlefield should be easy to defend and difficult to attack and easy to retreat. The main force should try their best to contain the hell dogs in the small town, so as to create more opportunities for the squad investigation, and also guard the Knights. Can be easily evacuated from the battlefield.

Of course, the guard camp can set up some traps and traps in the jungle in advance, and can also use the surrounding forest to enclose a battlefield.

This time the guard battalion came prepared, not only came with a lot of materials, but also brought many auxiliary tools. There are also some very professional hunters in the guard camp, who are very good at hunting in the jungle.

One thousand five hundred guard battalions, Knight impossible, have been hiding in this forest for too long, and it may not take long for the hell dogs to discover their whereabouts.

In order to avoid long nights and dreams, the squad must enter Meijin town at night, so the battlefield here must be determined before then, and the battlefield must be located in the vicinity of Meijin town. It must not be too far away, otherwise it will be small. The hell dogs near the town were unwilling to attack, so it would be embarrassing.

This time Samira’s proposal once again helped the three guard battalion commanders to make a decision.

That is the most advanced location of the intersection of two mountains. When the mountain is here, a trumpet-shaped battlefield is formed, but it is covered by a piece of jungle talk. If you just look outside, you can’t find it at all. The topography of the bell mouth.

Only a small amount of troops are needed to guard Taniguchi to stop the attack of the hell dog.

But this battlefield still needs to be set up. After all, those hell dogs can climb up the city wall with no difficulty even more than 20 meters high. So the guard battalions of the three cities gathered together at this time and began to arrange a large number of traps and wild beast clips on both sides of the battlefield, and even criss-crossed parasitic vines hanging from the top of the tree to weave a nearly 100-meter long The big net.

Before sunset, the guard battalion Knight finally got everything ready, and the Knights took a rest in the woodland.

At dinner, Andrew not only ate some batter-like marching rations, but also ate canned luncheon meat that was so fragrant.

……

As night falls, the hell dogs around Meijin Town gradually begin to calm down. They don’t seem to have adapted to the night of the plane of Maca, or the plane of Maca. The laws of the world during the night have the greatest impact on the hell dogs, so they prefer to hibernate at night.

A Knight squad quietly approached the town of Maca under the cover of the night. This is a team of ordinary Knights armed with standard military crossbows. They are well-trained and will continue after rushing out of the woods. Under the cover of the low bushes, continuously approach the hell dog group.

There are about thirty people in this Knight squad, headed by a platoon chief from Plush City.

The hell dogs guarding the entrance of Meijin Town are the densest. At this time, they are almost all lying on the ground with their eyes closed. Hell dogs are used to sticking one ear to the ground when they are resting. Their ears are very sensitive, and they can hear very subtle sounds in the distance. When this Knight squad stepped into the wasteland outside the small town of Meijin, hundreds of hell dogs opened their dark purple eyes at the same time.

The hell dogs have natural lava masks on their bodies. When their skin is scratched, they can even drip some hot lava. In dry places, hell dogs can even easily cause fires. , So at night, their bodies are like brightly colored targets. Even standing far away, you can see the flickering body of the Hell Hound.

Platoon looked at the hell dog in the distance and suddenly became brighter. He immediately stopped alertly and raised his hand to signal Knight, who was behind him, not to approach Meijin again. Thirty The name Knight was standing on the slope of the wasteland, and at the same time he held the standard continuous crossbow with his back in his hand, and aimed at the hell dog in the distance for a round of flat shots.

Dozens of crossbow arrows pierced the night sky, making a faint sound of breaking through the air.

The hell dog lying at the entrance of the town stood up vigilantly and looked out of the town vigilantly. Suddenly a rain of arrows came oncoming, and some hell dog near the periphery fell down with arrows. The hell dogs at the entrance of the town issued dull roars. Hundreds of hell dogs pounced on the wasteland outside the town. They roared continuously, and the hell dogs around the town responded.

The hell dog let out a hurried growl, platoon only saw countless lights suddenly appeared in the night, and those light spots were almost connected into one piece, like a Fire Insect flying all over the sky. .

"Withdraw!"

Platoon's opponent, Knight yelled, did not wait for the remaining two crossbow arrows in the arrow slot to shoot into the air, carrying the standard continuous crossbow and turned and looked. towards The road flies.

A group of Knights ran as hard as they could in the night, but the speed was still not as fast as the Hell Hounds. Seeing that the Hell Hounds who chased up from behind crossed the wasteland, chased behind the Knights, and rushed to the front. The paw of the hell dog suddenly tightened, a rope loop encircled its hind legs, and then the tight rope burst out a huge pulling force, and the hell dog was suspended in an instant. midair.

At the same time, almost two dozen hell dogs were hung up high by similar nooses, and the roar of the hell dogs was connected with the roar of the hell dogs on the edge of the woods.

More hell dogs around Meijin town rushed over here, and for a while, the wasteland was covered with flowing light.

A large number of hell dogs poured into the woods, and dozens of huge wooden rafts full of thorns fell from the top of the trees. Several hell dogs were shot underneath, and the hell dogs behind were blocked. Running to the sides, the Knights took the opportunity to continue to flee.

This woodland is full of various beast traps. From time to time, some hell dogs step on the beast traps, but these beast traps can deal with ordinary wild beasts, but don’t want to put the legs of the hell dogs. Clamped off, a beast weighing more than ten kilograms was caught on the leg, and the hell dog ran up and made a ding ding dong dong crashing sound.

Knight squad keeps appearing in the forest. They are responsible for activating the traps that have been set, and then quickly retreat along with the other Knights.

...

Surdak followed the Viscount Emmet quietly passing through the side of the hell dog group.

When some hell dogs passed by the investigating squad, they looked suspiciously at the location hidden by the investigating squad, but they couldn't see anything, so they followed the battallion with a sob.

Surdak, the over-numbered Helanza guard camp reconnaissance team, carefully bypassed the vicious dogs rushing out of the town and moved towards the town retrograde.
