Chapter 52: Clues

The roar of artillery was like a signal of war, completely starting the battle between the two city-states.

So far, all plans have gone unexpectedly well, but Roy hasn't let his guard down.

He knew that Baron Cliff was not good at scheming, and it was reasonable that he would be restrained for a while, but this was without going head-to-head.

And if nothing else, what will be followed is a brutal head-to-head battle.

If there were one or two powerful Adepts in his castle, it would be a nuisance.

Considering that there are several Abilities near Kerry's Tavern, it wouldn't be surprising to have one or two Abilities in Castle Eagle.

The preparations he could do were almost done.

......

"What sound!" Cliff asked, hearing a muffled thunderous sound as he walked up the wall.

"Your Excellency, it seems to have come from the back of the team in Eternal Light City. A man with a pair of hammers on his back and his left eye could not be opened said respectfully.

Cliff was silent for a moment: "How's the effect of the stone?"

"It's not very good, they are too cunning, as soon as they saw us throwing flints, they all withdrew from the Ghost Leaf Forest, and the Ghost Leaf Forest was cut out of a path by them. ”

"Damn, it's really cunning, in that case, you take people out and kill them in a wave, I feel that they are a little weird, be careful. ”

Cliff grabbed his hair, which had already begun to show Mediterranean qualities, and explained.

"Yes! The subordinate will pluck the head of the Yongguang cub and give you a drink!" said One-Eye, exhaling and excitedly.

White Eagle Fort has long been arrogant in the nearby city-states, and they have always been robbing others of their share.

It was the first time he had been blocked at the door like this, and if he had led someone to rush out and kill them, he would have led them out.

After One-Eyed said goodbye, he quickly sorted out the team, and in a few moments, the gate of White Eagle Fort opened, and the drawbridge was slowly lowered.

Compared to the improvised village support team, the guards of White Eagle Fort are the real elite, looting around the perimeter all year round, and every soldier shows an excited expression.

Each of these thirty cavalry members was a warrior who survived with blood.

"Let's go!" One-Eyed was the first to take the lead, roaring, and rushed out of the city gate.

The soldiers behind him also shouted, followed behind them on horses, rushed across the suspension bridge, and headed straight for the Ghost Leaf Forest.

"Ready!" Taylor had been guarding against the cavalry of White Eagle Fort, and when he saw the city gate open, he gave the order as soon as he saw it.

A team of muskets of similar shapes, set up behind the horse rejection stakes, maintained the posture of training, and aimed ahead.

The cavalry of White Eagle Fort was very fast, and the Ghost Leaf Forest was not suitable for them to charge, but after Yongguang's soldiers cut down the trees, the original path was much wider, enough for five or six cavalry to move side by side.

"Hahaha...... What a bunch of idiots, cutting down trees for a day, and it turned out to be our advantage for easy sprints!" one-eyed laughed to boost morale.

The cavalry behind him suddenly let out a series of shouts.

"Fire!" Taylor ordered loudly, seeing that the distance was already close to about 100 meters.

"Bang bang bang!"

A series of gunshots came to mind, and then I saw that the originally imposing cavalry team seemed to crash into an invisible wall, and suddenly people turned on their backs.

"Second team!" Taylor's voice didn't give everyone time to think about it, and ordered again: "Fire!"

This time the air flow was agitated, and there was no sound, but the cavalry that did not hit in the first wave was covered by more than a dozen air guns firing continuously at the same time, and none of them rushed within ten meters.

One-Eye felt nothing but something shoot at the horse, and then he was thrown down, and he scrambled to his feet, rolling behind a tree.

Then One-Eye saw the cavalry behind him fall off their horses one after another without accident, and the lucky ones hid behind the trees like him, and the unlucky ones were directly hit by something, wailing on the ground.

"What is this!?"

He secretly showed a little, only to see that the other party was holding a black barrel, and some fires flashed, and someone would fall to the ground not far away.

Some didn't even make a sound, and then hit their own men.

"Bang!"

A bullet hit where he was hiding, sawdust flew up, and One-Eye hurriedly burrowed into the depths of the woods, and there was no thought of killing him alone.

"Alright, don't chase it!" Taylor saw a few bold people who wanted to chase them deep into the woods with muskets, and hurriedly stopped them.

"The first and second teams are on guard, and the third and fourth teams are going with me to clean up the battlefield, and maybe we can eat horse meat at night!" Taylor continued to order.

Hearing about eating meat, his body, which was still a little tired, suddenly regained his vitality and cheered to follow Taylor to clean up the battlefield.

One-eyed made a big circle to make sure that no one was chasing him, and then he swam across the moat, and returned to the White Eagle Castle with a somewhat disgraced face.

"Something happened. Cliff's tone was extremely flat, and he couldn't hear the joy or anger, but his sinking face let One-Eye know that he was probably done this time.

"Your Excellency...... Their weapon was strange, a long tube, but it spewed flames, and when it rang, something pierced the body, unlike bows and arrows, and they didn't see anything shoot out at all. ”

One-eyed fell to his knees, not daring to look up at all.

"Thirty brothers who followed me from birth to death, how many of them came back? How many did you kill, and what face did you come back?" Cliff's face sank again, and he slapped the table in a rage.

"My lord......" One-Eyed wanted to intercede again, but found that he had indeed made a big mistake this time, and finally put the hammer on the ground and took off his armor: "I am willing to be punished, but please take care of my wife and children." ”

Cliff spat out and kicked him: "Warriors should die on the battlefield, you bring me that locked up "turtle shell". ”

"Turtle shell?" One-Eye didn't react for a moment.

"The Adept!" Cliff lifted his collar, "It's getting late, you and the Black Axe, bring someone with you, rush me again, be careful this time!"

"Yes...... Yes, I'll go right away. ”

......

After leaving the group with a few guards and Pierre, Carey hurried to Giethoorn.

In less than half an hour, I saw a small village sitting by a small river in the distance.

"We try not to get into conflict with the villagers, and the first priority is to save people, you know?"

"Understood!"

"I felt the smell of the child, but there was another smell mixed in, and it was very strong. Pierre's brow furrowed deeply.

"What does it smell like?"

"The defector of the Star Spirit, the smell he left here is very strong, indicating that he has stayed for a very long time. Pierre explained.

"Such a coincidence?" said Carey.

He didn't know whether to be happy or worried, this dangerous person in Pierre's mouth should be a happy thing not to be in Yongguang, but now that he is here again, it is a headache.

"I'll take you to the lord's cousin first, keep your promise, and then I'll meet with the opportunity. ”

"Well, I wouldn't mind if I had to, and I wouldn't mind trying to catch him. ”

Carey's words surprised Pierre: "Thank you very much for your kindness, let's go!"
