Chapter 107, Elena Romanoff
After completing the summoning and flying to a village full of old and weak women and children to borrow a set of clothes, it didn't take long for Langton and the others to find Mark and the others, who were far away from the battlefield and ready to hide in the mountains.
Mark breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Lanton, Carrie, and Tom were safe and sound.
"Gabby, what about that Hugh Blacklin?"
Langton: "Dead, I'm afraid he won't be able to die by some special means, and he will burn his body to ashes." ”
Hearing this, the middle-aged man who led the way looked stunned and couldn't believe it: "Really?"
Langton was very speechless: "What's the point of lying to you?"
"Take us to the Grand Duke Romanov. ”
"The recruits who went south this time are gone, and we have to find a way to make up for the numbers. ”
The suspicious middle-aged man hesitated again, still not believing Lanton, Mark, Carrie, and Tom, and did not agree to the request.
Seeing this, Mark was furious: "In order to send two letters, to see the Grand Duke Romanov, the real war has not yet begun, and we have lost two thousand people!"
"You won't even agree to that?"
"Are the Romanovs going to refuse the call for war?"
"If yes, tell me immediately!"
"Because I don't want to stay in this hellish place of the snowy mountains for a moment!"
Listening to Mark's angry words, the middle-aged man was still unmoved, afraid that the identities of Langton and the others were fake, and it was even possible that they were acting with Hugh Black Lin in order to deceive their trust, after all, this is not the first time this kind of thing has happened.
"I will send the letter to the Duke. ”
"You... Can wait in a village in front ......"
Mark sneered: "Forgive me for not being accompanied!"
Langton grabbed him, motioned not to be so angry and impulsive, and then said, "We can wait in the village ahead." ”
"But we'll only wait for you for three days. ”
"I hope you hurry. ”
"Otherwise, we will leave the snowy mountains in three days' time, and then report the matter to the Duchess Isabella and the Imperial Minister of War. ”
The middle-aged man nodded, wanting to lead the way for Langton, but was directly picked up by Nianli and flew back to the village he observed.
Seeing Langton and Carrie descending from the sky with people, the old and weak women and children in the village were not surprised.
Just looked at everyone lightly.
Finding the middle-aged figure, the middle-aged woman with a short spear was taken aback, and couldn't help but ask, "Why are you with them?"
The middle-aged man sighed: "I was discovered." ”
"You want to betray us?" the expressions of the old and weak women and children in the village became solemn.
Middle-aged: "No, I swore in the name of God the Father that I would not betray them, because I was discovered, and they were carrying letters from the Imperial Military Minister and the Northland Stuarts. ”
"I'm going to send a letter to the Duke......"
Hearing this, the middle-aged woman with the short spear glanced at everyone around her, and said to Langton and the others, "I will bring out the best food to entertain you." ”
"I hope you will stay here and wait in peace. ”
Is this meant to be left watched?
Langton didn't care: "Don't worry, we won't run around." ”
The dignified knight was actually treated like a thief, Mark was very unhappy about this, but Langton had no opinion, and he didn't have much to say.
After all, 2,000 recruits were wiped out, and as a commander, he should bear the greatest responsibility.
So contact the task of the Grand Duke of Romanov......
Try to get it done!
After receiving the villagers' arrangement, Langton lives in a wooden house in the center of the village, along with Carrie and Tom, as well as the newly arrived beauty.
"You should let me control the man. ”
"It saves a lot of money. ”
Even in the shabby clothes provided by the villagers, Ivy Pepper, a beautiful woman from Gotham, is still flamboyant and charming.
"Poison Ivy, this is not Gotham, and it's more dangerous than the world you once lived in. ”
"So don't wave it, okay?"
The new villain is the famous Poison Ivy Girl in the DC world, but not from the comics, nor from the Batman movie, but from the world of the Gotham TV series.
For her somewhat unscrupulous character, as well as the ability to get into trouble.
Even after completing the soul control, Langton still felt a headache.
From the world of the "Gotham" TV series, this poison ivy girl who should be weakened will control plants, not to mention, why is her body still full of venom?
And will confuse the mind?
Halfway through, she also delusionally wanted to control herself in turn!
Langton sighed and returned to the topic: "Your situation is considered to have a special bloodline. ”
"The talent for magic should be good, Tom can teach you meditation, magic, and witchcraft. ”
"With the practice of meditation, you can become a spellcaster. ”
"Spellcaster?" Ivy Pepper blinked her wide, bright eyes and looked at Langton in a charming expression.
Women will instinctively reject women who are more beautiful than themselves.
But Carrie's experience since she was a child is different from others, and she has an inexplicable affection for the beautiful and charming poison ivy girl, in addition to the more she looks at it, the more she feels eye-catching.
So he kindly explained: "It's a mage or wizard who has mastered magic and witchcraft." ”
"By becoming transcendent, we can live far beyond the lives of ordinary people. ”
"You can even stay young forever. ”
"Forever Youth?!"
Even if the body is mutated, the poison ivy woman does not dare to say that she will remain young forever, and the allure of this word to a woman is incomparable!
There is no woman who doesn't want to be more beautiful herself!
"Teach me!"
Hearing this, Tom, who has great strength and is immune to mind control, glanced at Langton expressionlessly, nodded slowly, and began to teach magic to the new Poison Ivy Girl, and Carrie also interjected from time to time.
Taking advantage of his free time, his strength reached a bottleneck, and Langton, who couldn't break through for the time being, started the idea of his real name on the page of the "Book of Summoning" again.
Loki, Ares, and Sauron are too strong.
Still God!
It's not easy to control them......
But mortals like Tywin, Dowling, Rams, Talia, Artemisia, Anne, and Tituba ......
Except that Anne had some trouble becoming a trainee priestess of the god of war.
Follow Lanton's mind and drive the power of the soul.
The control is successfully completed!
Now there are only the three supreme combat powers of the God of Cunning, the God of War and Maia, as well as the Priest of Death, the Black Warrior, and the Witch.
Just keep it all under control......
No matter what calculations they have had, what back-up arrangements they have made.
I don't have to be afraid!
So...
What's next?
Continuing to control?
Or watch memory learning?
The memories of Tywin, Rams, Artemisia, and Dowling can be put aside for a while, because there are no memories that can improve their own strength.
And Thalia will have world-class martial arts skills......
Witchcraft mastered by Anne and Tituba......
Which one should I choose first?
This world also forbids the BUG item of the Demon Badge, which completely restrains magic and witchcraft, and almost all the nobles and knights of the August Empire have it.
Let's look at the memories of high-level assassins first.
......
......
In a blink of an eye, three days passed.
Looking at Talia's memory, Langton has mastered most of the training methods of martial arts, but other people's memories belong to others after all, his body has not been trained, and his conscious reaction can keep up, but he still lacks accuracy and experience.
However, it's only a matter of time before you're able to master top-notch martial arts.
The middle-aged man who left the village to deliver the letter still did not return.
There was no news.
When the appointed time came, Langton didn't bother to wait any longer, and prepared to return to the Northland first, let the fleet transport logistics supplies, and then recruit mercenaries to report the situation.
"Adults, please stay!"
The representative of the old and weak women and children, the head of the village, the middle-aged woman with a short spear called out to Langton, who was about to leave.
"A message has been sent from the mountains that the Duke will be coming soon. ”
Langton frowned: "I said I would only wait for three days." ”
"Ahem. Mark: "Gabry, we're not in a hurry to meet at this point. ”
There were no young men in the village, few old people with them, most of them women, Mark and a dozen surviving soldiers lived in, and Langton could hear annoying cries every night.
Coupled with the scarcity of population in the Northland, there are not many women these days.
And you don't want to stay here for a moment?
Mark's face was smacked.
Langton shook his head: "We also have a mission on our side, if your duke can't come in the evening, forget it." ”
The middle-aged woman with a short spear: "The duke is really coming." ”
Soon after, a fire was lit on the top of the nearest hill to the north of the village, and the people of the Snowy Land used the smoke as a signal to warn and inform.
Very backward way, it may not be useful when it rains heavily.
But people are here after all.
Mark asked the soldiers to tidy up their appearance, and then walked to the north of the village to wait, facing a great nobleman, the grand duke who guarded the snowy land, Langton also had to give enough face.
Soldiers in leather armor and armed with special short spears clear the way.
Bronze and Silver Tier Combat Power Guard.
Several figures who looked like high-level nobles slowly came under the guidance of middle age.
"You're from the Northlands?"
"Hey, you're the infatuated Gabri?"
After a few glances at Mark, a snowy nobleman who often went to the Northlands and had visited Craig's Town, he noticed that Ranton looked familiar.
Regarding the name that was passed down from the original body, Langton smiled helplessly: "It's me, Gabriel Langton." ”
"I don't know what your Excellency is called?"
Ordinary people break through the limit, and although they will not improve their wisdom and make people become geniuses all of a sudden, they can enhance their memory, and it is normal for nobles to remember people they have heard and seen.
"I'm Pickman Doffield. ”
Mark also said: "It's Sir Doffield, I'm Mark Towne, and we used to be at Craig Manor... The banquet has ever seen. ”
"Oh, I remember you, the knight of the Craig family, right?" Pickman Doffield smiled and nodded, "I remembered when you mentioned that." ”
"It's hard for you to take a detour to deliver a letter in the snowy region. ”
"Don't be so polite, where the duty lies, there's nothing hard or hard. ”
"Let's go to the village and talk. ”
Seeing the acquaintance, it was basically certain that the identity was correct, and several other snowy nobles, as well as the surrounding soldiers, were relieved, not as tense as before, and Pickman also began to talk to Mark.
Chatting and returning to the village and sitting down.
Mark asked suspiciously, "Is the Grand Duke of Snowy Land very busy and doesn't have time to come?"
Hearing this, Pickman looked at the young man who had been silent behind them, and after receiving a nod of agreement, he sighed: "Our former Grand Duke died a year ago in order to protect everyone from retreating into the mountains. ”
Then he introduced the young man and said, "This is our Duchess Elena Romanov." ”
"The eldest daughter of the former Grand Duke. ”
"Mark Towne has seen the Honorable Grand Duchess. ”
He hurriedly saluted with his soldiers, and Langton, Tom, Carrie, and Ivy also saluted the Duke of Snowland, who was disguised as a man.
Yelena Romanov nodded and said, "I already understand your intentions, thank you very much for your notification. ”
"Even if the situation in the snowy region is bad, it will respond to the Empire's call to war. ”
"And I'll be going south with you in a few days. ”
The Duchess of Snow's indifferent tone did not have much emotional fluctuations, but with a meaning that could not be refused, her eyes were sharp and strong, and she had the extraordinary strength of the first silver rank, and she was able to recover Pickman and other nobles, proving that she was not an ordinary woman.
Even very smart!
Hearing this, Mark felt a little embarrassed: "Duchess Romanov, we have to escort the logistics supplies south. ”
"But... The 2,000 recruits under my command have perished......"
"I'm going back to the Northland to replenish my troops. ”
Yelena Romanov frowned and asked, "Isn't there a treacherous mist disaster in the Northland, and the population has plummeted to one in ten?"
"The Northland still has troops to replenish for you?"
Mark: "This... It was Gabry who recruited soldiers from the East. ”
Yelena looked at Langton and asked, "Infatuated Gabri, how many people do you have the ability to recruit for the Northlands?"
"Duchess, just call me Gabry. ”
Lan Dun smiled bitterly: "To be honest, I don't have much ability, and I can't recruit more soldiers for the Northland." ”
"You can only recruit mercenaries from the East. ”
"Recruiting mercenaries?" Yelena raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why are you going?"
Mark explained: "Gabry became a pioneer knight, and his soldiers were all navy, staying in the open sea to stabilize their territory, so they could not bring their troops back to answer the call, so they were willing to pay for the food and grass, logistics and training of recruits for the Northlanders. ”
"But the recruits are ...... because of my poor command"
Yelena looked at Langton curiously and asked, "So, you're quite rich?"
"The infatuated Gabrie is the second heir to the Lanton Chamber of Commerce, which is quite famous in the north of our empire. ”
Yelena asked thoughtfully, "I heard that you killed that traitor to Hugh Heilin?"
"Yes. Langton: "But the body has been burned, and I can't prove it." ”
"It's okay, I trust you. Yelena: "Although you only have the strength of the Black Iron Peak, I feel that your combat power is not weaker than that of the Bronze Rank Transcendent, and you even have the strength to kill me like the Silver Rank." ”
"Interested in coming to the snowy region?"
"I can give you a piece of territory. ”
Langton shook his head: "Thank you Duchess for your kindness, I have developed well in the open sea, and I have smashed my whole net worth." ”
"I'm not going to come inland anymore. ”
Mark said: "Gabbri's eldest brother, Chris, gave up the Chamber of Commerce and has become the guardian knight of Duchess Isabella, obtaining the baronial fief. ”。
"Oh, you have become the manager of the Chamber of Commerce, and you have taken a fancy to the interests of maritime trade in the open sea?" Ye Lina raised her eyebrows again: "I don't plan to go back to the mainland, but to make way for my eldest brother's career?"
...... To be continued......
