Section 26 Trial

Light rain in the northern part of the Harrens Highlands spread like a virus throughout the Highlands within a few days, and there was a small village in the middle of the Highlands, east of the camp of the Ukalo Mountain Forest Garrison, at a dense forest intersection. Under a gloomy sky and a mist of water, the village's muddy paths are filled with heavily armed patrols.

If you look closely, these patrolmen are not ordinary soldiers, and almost all of them have different family crests on their left armour... That is, even the patrols of the troops stationed here are knights or young noble warriors!

In the north of the small square in the village, outside the only stone building, the giant bear battle banner hunted and flew in the rain, and more than a dozen knights under the cowhide awning next to it talked and laughed around the iron pot hanging on a bonfire.

The stone building was somewhat dark inside, and in the darkest corners, two plank beds were covered with hay. On the opposite side of the bed is an old blackened locker with a variety of wooden cutlery. In the middle of the room, a small pit made of small stones was paved with dry wood, and the crucibles on the iron shelves above were filled with wild vegetables mixed with the thick soup of the roasted meat, which was bubbling from the flames below.

Throughout the room, except for the iron-barred windows on the left and right walls, the campfire burning in the fire pit was the only source of light, and Pedy sat around a small stool next to the campfire, along with the army's Chief of Military Intelligence Danmen Greene and Adjutant Otwood Knight, chatting quietly over thick soup.

Today is the seventh day that Pedi and his knights left Fort Kavar, on November 4th. He was not in a hurry, because now that the battle of the Sister Territory had entered the stalemate stage, it would not be fruitful even if it was half a month.

Besides, with the current war situation, it shouldn't be Pedi who is in a hurry.

"Sir Parma-Nago, who is in charge of the new trade route, has some news..."The knight of Otwood has taken on the role of the chief secretary of Pedi since he didn't know when, he took the bowl and wanted to report directly, but halfway through the words, he put down the wooden bowl again, took out a thick piece of waterproof brown paper, and looked at it carefully before saying: "The trade volume of the new trade route has nearly tripled in the past half a month, and Sir Parma asked if the trade between the merchants and the mage tower would be relaxed. ”

"Just twice as much?" Pedi raised an eyebrow, he went to great lengths to provoke the war between Beenburg and Harensburg for a number of reasons, one of which was to cut off Balan's trade routes in order to increase the volume of trade from Sekka to the interior.

"Although businessmen seek profit, people are always wary of the unknown. Danmen-Green chuckled, "However, when they see enough profit, they will immediately gather uncontrollably towards Sekka like flies smelling carrion, and all we need is time." ”

Pedi drank the soup from the bowl in one gulp, and from his expression, it was clear that he was dissatisfied with the words of the military intelligence chief, or that he was not satisfied with the status quo, but at the same time, he knew that it would take time.

At this time, the Otwood knight next to him saw that Pedy was silent and opened his mouth to say something, but because of his identity, he finally chose to shut up.

"Do you have something to say?" Pedi noticed the adjutant's expression, "It's not a formal occasion now, you can say whatever you want." His tone was full of encouragement from a chief.

Otwood was silent for a moment before he said, "If you want to increase the trade volume of Balan Town, there is actually a more direct way. "We can send people to communicate directly with the goblins, the barbarians, and several large chambers of commerce in Sekka Town to sign relevant trade agreements. His words became clearer and clearer: "As long as these people agree, even if the trade of the northern trade routes of Kru is carried out as usual, it will not affect the trade of the town of Seka, because the final object of trade between the two towns is different." ”

The adjutant's words made Pedy's eyes brighter and brighter, and Danmen Green next to him began to look at the Oldwood Knights.

"You seem to have something to say?" asked Pedi.

The young knight avoided Pedi's gaze, looked down at the red-hot charcoal, and said, "Personally, I think it's best not to use the name of Kawalburg when communicating with these parties..."

"Well..."Pei Di was stunned, and the thoughts in his mind suddenly brightened, and he had already thought of what the adjutant was going to say next. But he encouraged Otwood: "You go on, say what you want to say." ”

Otwood was stunned for a moment, and said stubbornly under the gaze of Pedy and Danmen-Green: "The towns of Seka and Baran are the trade partners, and they are also the port market towns that undertake trade, so I think it is best to communicate with all parties and sign a trade agreement in the name of these two towns." He mustered up the courage to look at Pedi: "That way, if there is a problem with trade between the two towns, it will be easy for Kawar Fort to intervene." ”

"Oh, you're a genius. Danmen-Green couldn't help but sigh.

"It's really worth considering. Although Pei Di agreed with the adjutant's proposal in his heart, he did not reply immediately, he thought for a moment and ordered: "Consolidate your opinion into a formal document, and present it at a formal meeting in the inner hall after this war is over." ”

Although the solution is highly feasible, it is not urgent. First of all, neither the town of Seka nor the town of Balan has been restored after the end of the war last year, and even the town of Balan is still managed by the garrison corps.

"Yes, sir. Otwood's eyes lit up.

Pedi nodded, but looked up at the window above the wall opposite where he was, the rain outside was lapping against the window, and the howling cold wind carried fine raindrops that made the window damp. Between the cold wind whistling, Pei Di only felt an irritability spreading in his heart, and he subconsciously leaned back towards the bonfire and changed the topic, "Is there a battle report from the Sister Leader today?"

"No, Sir Sir Sheila Marne, unlike other generals, has nothing important and hardly reports. Danmen-Green replied, "In a way, that's the news, and the war in the Sixt Territory shouldn't have changed much. ”

"Is Bane-Lockton still in Fort Herien?" asked Pedy.

"Sir Sira's plan to assassinate Bane Lockton was so successful that Bane Lockton was so frightened that he didn't even dare to leave his quarters. Danmen Green said in a mocking tone, "However, after the situation of the Sister Command is stabilized, Bane Lockton is also preparing to preside over the battle at the front, and I estimate that he should be on his way in three days." ”

"Three days?" Peddy nodded and asked, "How was the contact with the people of the Twak Leader?"

"Duke Andy is already gathering his army, and their conditions have not changed, and they still want all the supplies hoarded in the Herion territory. Danmen Green answered this question carefully.

"Well," Pedi thought as he looked down, the feeling of irritability in his heart grew... Suddenly, this feeling of irritability made Pei Di feel a palpitation in his heart!

"Huh" In the strange gaze of the other two, Pei Di suddenly stood up at the same time as the Holy Force gathered in an instant, under the shocked expressions of Danmen-Green and Otwood, he grabbed a man's collar with one hand in one hand, and threw it towards the door.

"Bang!"

In the rain and pus, the door of the stone house protected by dozens of knights was smashed open, and Danmen-Green and Otwood only felt that their bodies suddenly lost their balance, and a sharp pain came after the people were already outside.

"Boom!" The faces of the surrounding knights just showed a look of surprise, and a louder noise was heard in the room,

The hay-paved roof was torn open by a tremendous force, and the terrifying elemental power roared and swept through the surrounding rain, and the flying hay and the collapsed stones of the house were squeezed by an unknown force and spread in all directions...

More than a dozen knights were instantly covered in flying stones!

The screams made the surrounding knights react, and Danmen-Green, who stood up, shouted regardless of the severe pain on his body, "Master Pedi is still inside. ”

"Knock!" Danmen-Green's voice had just landed, and at the same time as the muffled sound sounded, a figure covered in holy power flew out upside down with the collapsed stones,

It's Pedi!

He was shocked out by the sudden violent force in the room...

"Whoosh!whoosh!whoosh!" Three arrows that shone with cyan light and wind elemental energy instantly locked onto Pei Di, who was flying out upside down.

"It's a Demon Breaker Arrow!, protect your lord!" the voice of the Captain of the Guard, Bang Ge Pombo, rang out in the rain.

There was no need for Bange-Pombo to remind him, and almost at the same time as the arrow appeared, the knights closest to Pedi lifted their shields made of bamboo, ironwood, and stainless steel that were specially designed to deal with the Demon Breaker Arrows and jumped towards Pedi's side.

And at this moment, the arrows that moved extremely fast disappeared strangely the moment the knights jumped!

"Ding, ding, ding!" The three arrows almost disappeared before they reappeared around Pedi, and in the blink of an eye, they nailed to the wall of spiritual light that was like a substance around Pedi...

This is the most basic means of defense for paladins... Holy Shield!

However, the 'Holy Shield Technique', which claims to defend against everything, was shattered in an instant!

However, Pei Di was very calm in the retreat, he snorted lightly and coldly, and with a flip of his wrist, the silver-white war hammer in his hand flicked upward, and the three arrows were immediately shattered.

"Whoosh!whoosh!whoosh!" But just as Pedi unloaded, three arrows struck again... The same strange disappearance and strange appearance around Peidi!

"Zi!" At this critical moment, the golden holy power on Pei Di's body turned into a milky white, and a white transparent wall of light that could be clearly seen by the naked eye instantly formed.

"Ding, ding, ding!" At the same time as the crisp voice sounded, the three arrows were bounced open by the wall of light, and three beautiful arrow sparks danced in mid-air and fell to the ground weakly.

"Archers are on the high southwest slope!" At the moment when a voice sounded, several figures burst out with holy power, galloping towards the high northwest slope at the fastest speed. At the same time, the magic archers in the team jumped up high in the village and aimed at the northwest slope under the protection of the knights.

At this moment, Pedi steadied himself, and he did not pay attention to the archers who attacked him, because in front of him, where he had just been, in the midst of the hazy rain, a huge figure was gradually taking shape... That's an ice giant that's five meters tall!

The surrounding knights, including Pei Di's eyes, all revealed solemnity!

"Magician!" Banger Pombo shouted to the few magicians behind him as he gathered around the ruins of the house with his knights.

"We need sight!" the furious elemental power of the ruins made the mage's voice tremble.

"Useless waste," Bane-Pombo muttered under his breath, grabbing the knight's arm beside him and ordering, "those mages need babysitting, show me to a place with a good line of sight." ”

"I hate this order. The knight whispered a few words and winked at the people beside him.

At this moment, an icy chill came from the ruins...

Then there was a similar "click" sound of ice cracking, but I saw that all the rain around the ruins and so on twenty meters was frozen into white ice at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Besiege him!" As the strongest paladin present, Peidi did not stand behind the soldiers, he stepped on the ice on the ground, raised the war hammer in his hand above his head, and the whole person had already jumped towards the giant ice giant that was gradually forming on the ruins.

"Bang!" a dazzling golden light flashed, and a powerful hammer blow struck the ice giant's flank chest!

"Click!" the Ice Giant's left chest shattered as it seemed to be awakened by Pedi's blow. The countless magic runes on the ice of its body shone blue, and its huge left hand smashed down on Pedi who had just landed on the ground with a burst of sky-breaking sounds.

Pedi rolled directly to the left, and after dodging the attack of the ice giant, he got up and picked up the war hammer, which was a sweep, and the huge arm and the war hammer staggered, and the seemingly solid ice surface shattered in an instant.

Pei Di, who had won the blow, was about to take advantage of the victory to attack, but the chill of the soles of his feet suddenly invaded the bone marrow, so he hurriedly jumped behind him, and the ice spikes of the cold light were all over the position where Pei Di was standing just now.

As soon as Pedi stabilized his body, he turned into ice spikes like steel needles and moved straight towards Pedi in the blink of an eye, and the sound of "Boom" ice cubes rubbing against the iron weapon sounded, and it was the two reinforced paladins who blocked the attack with their shields.

On the opposite side of "Click" Peidi, the sound of ice cubes rubbing again came to everyone's ears, and the ice giant's shattered chest and left hand instantly healed after absorbing the rain that had fallen around him.

"Get out of the way!" Pedi snapped his eyes and jumped towards the roof of the house on his left.

"Puff puff" A peculiar sound of flesh being scraped made Pedy's eyelids jump wildly, and he saw that all the icy areas around the ice giant were covered with ice spikes.

"Ahh

"Don't rush forward!" Pedi landed directly in front of Bang Pampo with a jump, and he quickly ordered, "Except for the paladins and magic warriors, everyone else is out of the ice circle, you..."

"En!" Pei Di's heart sank, and he said secretly: Can you still lock the target?

"Do as I command!" After a sentence of words, Pei Di did not retreat, but advanced, and the holy power that had turned back to golden around his body turned milky white again between his charges.

"Bang!" With a loud bang like thunder in the sky, Pedi's 'tactical dash' directly shattered the ice giant's two hands that were attacking him, and the war hammer in his hand smashed directly into the cold chest that flashed with magic patterns.

While Peidi was shocked by the force of inertia and flew backwards a few steps, the ice giant was stopped by the tremendous force that stopped his charge.

Pei Di, who stabilized his body, felt the chill on the soles of his feet again, but this time he did not retreat, he raised the war hammer infused with holy power in his hand and smashed it directly on the ground..."Click" The ice under Pei Di's feet was smashed and cracked along with the entire ground, and Pei Di used the inertia of this blow to directly attack the ice giant, and the moment his feet landed, the war hammer slammed upward, and the huge left leg of the ice giant was all broken in an instant.

Just as Pedi wanted to continue attacking, the Ice Giant's right hand, which was gradually recovering, swept towards him, but Pedi did not stop attacking with the two-handed war hammer, only to see that the moment the war hammer in his hand landed on the Ice Giant's right leg, the opponent's right hand swept the wall of light around his body...

Between the ice shattering, Pedi flew out on his side.

"Pounce" Peidi, who was protected by the Holy Force, hit the wall of a private house, and the moment he landed, a flaming red fire flashed around the ice giant, and between a breath, the faint fire turned into a huge fire dragon,

The firelight opened its huge mouth and devoured the Ice Giant as Pedi got back on his feet!

The steaming steam covered the entire ice in a matter of seconds...

The magician has finally struck...

Getting a chance to breathe, Pedi began to breathe heavily, and the knights around him immediately consciously leaned over to guard against any possible assassins nearby.

"Whew!" Just as everyone was breathing a sigh of relief, a strange wind of hot and cold swept up, and the seemingly ferocious and abnormal fire dragon was extinguished in a moment like a candle in the wind...

Not only was the revealed Ice Giant undamaged, but even the legs and hands that had been shattered by Pedi just now were restored!

"Get out of the way. Pedi pushed away the knight who stood in his way, his face grim, the power of the warhammer in his hand regrouping.

"Step" step out, the holy power around him turned milky white again,

"Step" took another step, and the holy power gathered around him grew at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Step" The third step out, almost all of his area within five meters was shrouded in holy power... At this moment, the space around him seemed to be isolated, and even the fine rain could not beat in.

"Holy Power is omnipotent, she is all-encompassing, she can shelter anyone. "But she can be angry just as much, and her anger can crush everything... My mentor said that great power cannot be easily displayed because it will break the rules that already exist. ”

His voice like a self-muttering voice landed, and the area around him became milky white in the surrounding ten meters...

Farther afield, dazzling golden holy power covered the entire village!

At this moment, the holy power seemed to break through the dark clouds on the horizon,

At this moment, it is as if a goddess has descended into the world!

The ice giant ignored this, and it jumped straight at Pedi...

Pedi looked at the attacking ice giant's face with a hideous flash, raised his head and whispered, "The foreign body will finally be judged!"

I saw that a huge war hammer composed of holy power seemed to fall from the edge of the sky, and the dazzling golden light attracted everyone's eyes to look up...

That holy power even made some knights subconsciously kneel on one knee and pray.

The ice giant in mid-air shattered directly, and the moment the ice slag fell, it turned into a little rain and evaporated in the air.

At the same time, a few meters in front of Pedi, a swarthy pit with a diameter of at least five meters suddenly appeared... Yes, it just appeared so suddenly, as if it had always existed. There was no violent impact, and there was no vibration, so weird it appeared!

"I don't feel the fluctuations in elemental energy anymore!" a mage suddenly exclaimed.

Ten miles from the village, at the top of a giant tree in the jungle, an old man holding a lookout and holding a magic wand muttered, "Impossible... It is impossible for people to be so strong!"
