Chapter 267: Return
Glancing deeply at the monster, as if trying to take him into his mind, he pushed Brynn back with a single sword, rolled over and leaped into the river, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
It's not that Sean doesn't want to take the opportunity to kill this champion knight who is full of malice towards the Eternal Night Commander to prevent future troubles.
It's just that the other abilities of the Thunder Golden Eagle are not enough to deal with the champion knight, and the only thunder with super lethality needs to build up momentum for a long time and fully mobilize the power of the spell to be unleashed, once the other party is prepared, it will be difficult to hurt the other party, after all, it is now on the river.
The champion knight wants to run, and it is very difficult to stop.
Sean gathered most of the thunder power, dispersed again, glanced at the messenger who had been completely out of trouble, and raised his figure again.
Looking down from the sky, on the river behind the envoy, dozens of crocodile warships were rushing in this direction, and there was no way to judge whether they were friends or foes.
Fortunately, it was not too far from the Danube, and before they could catch up, there was enough for the Emissary to enter the Danube.
When they got there, there were more merchant ships belonging to the Eternal Night.
In these days, even merchant ships will be equipped with quite good armed forces, otherwise those good citizens who are friendly with them may turn into thugs.
"Full speed ahead. Although the captain of the Emissary did not see the ship behind him, it did not prevent him from making the most correct judgment, and it was too late to kill all the crocodile soldiers who had fallen into the water, and it was his first task to escort Brann back to the Eternal Night Army in full speed again.
The Champion Knight Assassin had just fled, and Brann sat down on the deck, his face pale.
The captain of the Messenger, who had just finished his work, walked over quickly, helped him and said, "Chief of Staff, are you alright?"
"It's not a big deal, it's just a little overdepleted, just get some sleep. Brann explained as he took out a charging gem and absorbed the magic power in it, although his spirit could not be replenished, he was still a little sluggish, but at least he no longer looked like he would faint at any moment.
The pressure of playing against the champion knight is too much, and he has a lot of charge gems in his empty pocket, but he has no chance to draw strength to replenish it.
However, struggling in this desperate situation of life and death, the benefits are also huge, and the door to the pinnacle that has been closed to him has been quietly loosened, revealing a little gap.
It's no wonder that the legend that the Eternal Night Commander has been circulating that the tempering of life and death is a shortcut to the top, and it seems that it is not groundless.
Brann hadn't asked the champion knight to help him feed him before, and even his father Ben Hebrew had played himself when he reached the double peak, but the effect was not ideal, and he has not been able to understand it.
Now I finally found the reason, the fake is fake after all, no matter how real the simulation is, if the nerves are not tense, there is always something missing.
What's more, people are not cornered, and they never know how powerful they can burst out.
Looking back on the whole process now, he suspected that it was in a dream, let him do it again, he didn't know if he could do it, because at that moment, under the pressure of death, his spirit was forced to be highly concentrated, and some operations had exceeded his normal limit, and his body faintly had the illusion of falling apart, but there was a hearty feeling that could not be described in words.
"It's okay! it's okay!" the captain of the Emissary let out a long sigh of relief, feeling his feet a little weak.
Although he did not participate in the battle from beginning to end, controlling the ship and directing the battle was also a very energy-consuming thing, especially in the short seconds of driving the ship and hedging against the crocodile warship, the danger, the highly concentrated spirit and spirit, was not much worse than Brynn's alone against the injured champion knight.
In this encounter, which lasted no more than a quarter of an hour, it was not only Brann who gained something, but also the young captain, who had a unique experience in both personal training and maneuvering the battleship, and might have the opportunity to go to the next level.
"What are you doing?" asked Bryan curiously as he looked at the young captain who had pulled out his pen and paper and quickly wrote and drawn.
"Remember what I just learned. The young captain replied without raising his head.
Bryan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but pick his thumb and said, "Good habit." ”
The young captain quickly finished memorizing, carefully put away the pen and paper, shook his head with a smile, and said: " This habit is not developed by myself, but was forced out by Captain Woody, on the day of the establishment of the Angry Waves Navy, the commander of the regiment did not say anything, each captain sent a diary and a pen, asking us to record every day on the warship, including the soldiers' eating, drinking, and Lazar, after all, we crossed the river by feeling the stones, we have no experience, we need to accumulate a little bit, especially this kind of experience in frontal confrontation with the enemy, it can not be omitted, count it up, this is our first battle on the water, it is valuable first-hand information. ”
"They all say that Captain Woody is very good at training, and I was skeptical, but now I believe it. Bryan sighed heartily.
Being able to rise up from a hundred guard commanders all the way up to become the commander of a newly formed legion is not a fluke, but has his own uniqueness.
The young captain hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice and said, "Chief of Staff, was that Lord Lord just now?"
"It's best not to guess this kind of thing, when we should know, we will naturally know, and we shouldn't know, and if we know more, we will be taboo. Bryan admonished, "You just need to know that the other party is friend or foe, and give a gag order." ”
"Understood. The young captain nodded, "Chief of Staff, if there's nothing to do, I'll go around somewhere else." ”
"You get busy first, I'm fine. After seeing the other man leave, Brann sat on the floor, closed his eyes and recuperated, recovering his spirit while reminiscing about what he had just gained.
The surviving soldiers of the Eternal Night aboard the Emissary were also shocked and exchanged heads.
"What did you just give us out of? I think it's a bit like the legendary Sonset Eagle, but not like a physical body. ”
"I've seen similar figures passing by more than once in my territory, and I originally thought that the giant eagle of Sanset was not simple. ”
"I feel a strong magic power in it, don't you think this fluctuation is familiar?"
"Shut up, what you just saw, enforce the special secrecy regulations, and rot in my stomach. The boatswain of the Messenger limped over and said with a solemn expression, "If you don't leave any mouth alive, throw all the corpses into the river to feed the fish." ”
As for the matter of rescuing the wounded and collecting the remains of their companions, there was no need to order them at all, and naturally the medical soldiers accompanying the ship took care of it.
"Understood. Those Eternal Night Soldiers looked at each other with a pang in their hearts, and instantly understood the deeper meaning, this was obviously another secret weapon of the Eternal Night Commander.
Having said that, the Eternal Night Commander has never stopped investing in the Biological Anomaly Research Institute over the years, and even those huge war beasts have been equipped in many brother departments.
Not to mention the enchanted equipment, it hangs on the Quartermaster's Meritorious List, as long as you have enough merit and the minimum level of strength, you can have unique abilities exclusive to Warlocks.
The knight who sacrificed to cover Brann showed them the power of the enchanted equipment, which could withstand the blow of the champion knight.
With this kind of equipment, on the battlefield, it is like an extra life, which is very eye-catching.
Although they had just experienced the tragic loss of their comrades, the morale of these soldiers of the Eternal Night was even higher, and when they looked up at the dark clouds that swirled above them, their hearts were on fire, and with its escort, they had no worries about the rest of the road.
The Emissary had just left a few minutes before the crocodile warship that Sean saw from the sky arrived.
Standing at the bow of the ship was Weber Sarofo, one of the members of the Council of Great Elders.
Seeing the miserable scene after the fierce battle in the river, the elder of the crocodile clan, who was not easy to show his anger, stomped his foot angrily: "After all, it's still a step too late, Crane, this old bastard, actually did such a heartless thing for his own selfishness, he didn't save the crocodile clan, this is forcing us to a dead end." ”
Obviously, they received the news and came to stop the interception, but they were a little late in receiving the news and could not catch up in time.
"Patriarch, all of them have been searched, there is no wreck of the Emissary, only our crocodile clan's own ship, a total of seven, all of which belong to the Crane Grand Elder. The crocodile soldiers who went into the water to search for it soon came back to report.
"No wreckage of the Emissary?" Webber gasped, both delighted and surprised.
Happily, Crane's interception did not seem to be successful, and the relationship between the crocodile people and the Eternal Night Leader has not been forced into a corner, and there is still room for relaxation.
Shockingly, among the seven crocodile warships, a champion knight personally took action, but he didn't even take down one of the opponent's assault ships, how strong is the opponent's warship? Could it be that there is still a champion knight hidden on the warship?
If this is the case, the strength of the Eternal Night Army Leader is only afraid that it will be even more terrifying than they imagined.
"Patriarch, catch a live mouth. Soon another crocodile soldier replied.
"Quick, bring him here. Webb said hurriedly.
Soon, a crocodile soldier with a somewhat sluggish expression was brought in.
"Tell me, what just happened?" asked Webber hurriedly, now concerned not only about the situation of the Emissary, but also about what had happened.
"Monster! what a monster! Lightning!" the crocodile soldier said something incoherently, as if answering Webb's question, and as if he were muttering to himself.
"What the hell happened to this guy? The few words that popped out of the other party's mouth not only did not solve Weber's confusion, but made him even more confused, but he was not a witch doctor, so he really had no way to deal with this.
On the contrary, the crocodile soldier who escorted him up was a little overwhelmed, so he gave him four or five big slaps with his backhand, and said in a rough voice: "Speak well." ”
Because it happened too quickly, it was too late for Webb to stop it, but it was a little strange that this kind of brutal method actually took effect, and the crocodile soldier looked like he had just woken up from a dream, his eyes regained a little lucidity, and he described the whole process intermittently, so that Weber had a clearer understanding of the whole thing.
However, what the crocodile soldier repeatedly mentioned was the monster that fell from the sky with a storm and thunder, and seriously injured their patriarch Crane as soon as he struck, and overturned most of their warships with the storm.
It was clear that the monster had left a serious psychological shadow on him.
But what he said was a bit like a legend, and there was a smell of distortion from the inside out.
The most important thing is that when he was just fished out of the water, he still looked insane, and Webb didn't dare to give much trust to the words in his mouth.
However, he was not the only crocodile soldier who fell into the water, and soon other crocodile soldiers who had not fled far were fished up one after another.
The process they describe is not much different from what the first person said.
made Webb have to believe that what happened before was that the legend had become a reality, and the interception that was about to succeed was completely destroyed, and Klein, the strongest man in the crocodile tribe, was seriously injured and escaped.
At this moment, Weber was a little unable to describe his mood, and the monster that swirled the most in his mind was the monster they mentioned the most.
Not much smaller than a warship, it resembles an eagle, carries thunder and lightning on its body, can manipulate storms, and has a translucent body......
Putting all these conditions together, it's still a bit impossible to imagine what it looks like as a whole.
The more I know about the Eternal Night Leader, the more I can't see him clearly, and when I untie one veil, I find that there is another veil hidden behind him, and no one knows how many veils he hides, and which one is his true face.
Judging from the current situation, there is no need for them to chase down.
Out of caution, Weber still led his fleet and chased it all the way to the Danube, where he saw the messenger in the distance, and more than a dozen merchant ships from the Eternal Night Army had gathered around it.
These merchant ships are equipped with a different number of armed personnel accompanying the ships, relying on the sturdy size of the merchant ships, the combat effectiveness is quite good, and one or two crocodile warships may not be able to gnaw on them.
If Klein wants to move them again, he will have to use a large army, and there will be no way to do the secrecy work.
What's more, there is also a monster on the other side that is difficult to distinguish between real and fake.
Webb himself observed the sky above the Emissary, and sure enough, he found a small black dot that seemed to be circling back and forth around it, and the coldness in his heart became even more obvious.
Webber returned to the territory with a heavy heart, first ventilating to several other Grand Elders, discussing how to make up for it later.
Although the situation has not slipped to the point of no return, Klein's unauthorized actions still make them very passive, and who knows that the Eternal Night Army will not take advantage of the problem.
And Klein didn't know if he was worried about the accusations from the Council of Elders, after the incident, he never returned to the Council of Elders, but returned to his tribe without saying a word, including the soldiers of his tribe, and he didn't know what orders he received, all of them broke away from the council coalition and returned to their lair.
Although the Council of Elders got the news in advance, there was no way to stop it, and once it tore its face, there was no room for relaxation.
Thankfully, Klein has always had a bad temper and basically has no allies in the Council of Elders, and few people have followed suit for this kind of extreme thing.
Because to do so would mean severing one's relationship with the Council of Elders, isolating oneself, which ordinary people don't have the courage to do.
Just the transfer of this force, which is less than 20,000 combat strength, will not cause irreparable losses to their overall situation.
However, this makes the Crocodile's assistance to the Eternal Night Warlord more urgent.
