Chapter 428: Intelligence
"Then let's see what kind of information you bring with you." Luga slowly sat down and looked at Arecio, and did not forget to joke, "Is there anything more incredible than this bastard of Jangkaro, I would like to hear about it." ”
"Oh yes, it should be worse than him." Arecio said, then collecting the parchment he was holding in his hand into his clothes. Then he took out a roll of parchment, spread it out on the table, this is a map of Britannia, pointed to the city of Linton in the province of Lower Britannia, and said to Luga: "According to the information given to me by my informant, the Saxon chief Kevin whom you drove away at that time. This is where Sain is entrenched. And, here he united the other Saxon tribes, including many Anglo tribes, and of course, many of the Celts remained on the sidelines, and it seemed that they intended to be the grass on the wall, and if we were strong, we would be able to win their support. It's just that now we are not very far away from the Saxons, not to mention Kevin. Sain also knows a lot of things, so to swear revenge, every step we take will not be easy. ”
"It's not that far away, but what does that mean?" Luga then asked Arecio.
"Of course!" Arecio nodded, then said solemnly to Luga, "Why did you kill the old man he left behind?" I've heard that you also eat their babies, right? Luga! ”
"Oh my God!" Luga held his head and said to Arecio, "Even you believe their nonsense. ”
"They all said so, as I had told me from the fishermen in the city of Lundinglum who had come out to fish. They're scared to death right now. Arecio shrugged his shoulders and said, "If you continue like this, it is likely that your enemies will not need to intervene, and the people who have recovered the land will drive you out." ”
"I know, I know!" Luga began to defend himself, "But what can I do, I left the order, and then went to negotiate with the nobles of Lundinglum, and when I came back, I found that the corpses had been piled up with the men of Jancarlo. They even gave confessions to the soldiers who had killed someone! Now it's good, the good reputation has taken them all, the support of the soldiers, and the murder is blamed on my head by them. ”
"Why did they do that?" Arecio said he couldn't understand.
"How do I know?" Lu Gareng snorted and continued: "When I came back, it was only an hour and a half, and they had already dealt with it in such a quick time, and it must be said that the Saxons did it first. ”
"It's not impossible." Arecio stroked his chin and said thoughtfully.
"Oh, that's not what Your Excellency is thinking about right now, beautiful man!" Luga got down to business and said to Arecio, "Say, you tear the subject away from me. ”
"Oh, I forgot that." Arecio tapped his head, then said, "I'm afraid this is a new people we've encountered. As he spoke, Arecio took out a roll of parchment from the package he was travelling with, unfolded it and showed it to Luga, and said, "Look, this. ”
Luga looked down and saw a picture of a tall and stout barbarian with teeth and claws, and a skull on his body.
"What is this?" Luga asked Arecio.
"The Nephilim." Arecio explained to Luga: "The name given to them by the believers in Christ is to describe this race. ”
"The Nephilim." Andrew said thoughtfully: "Isn't that a giant in the East?" I heard that they are monsters born from the combination of fallen angels and humans, and they appeared in oriental legends, but why did they appear here? ”
"That may be God's will." Arecio turned to look at Luga, and continued: "First the priest broke the killing ring, and then the Saxons appeared in the camp of the Nephilims, and the presence of too many unfavorable signs with us at the same time does not indicate that we must make a decision in this war, and it is likely that God is foreshadowing that we will not succeed in this battle." ”
"Oh, Arecio, why are you starting to retreat?" Even if Arecio was so eloquent, how could Luga, who insisted on atheism, be convinced? They are all human beings, but can they be called Nephilims if they are tall and ugly and frightening? How could this be convincing?
"So, do they know about Jiang Karo?" Luga suddenly thought of a brilliant solution, but now he had to ask Arecio if this information was absolutely accurate.
"I'm sure they don't know about it." Arecio replied very confidently, and it seemed that he had a lot of trust in the so-called informant.
"That's going to be easy." Luga smiled, and suddenly felt his whole body feel comfortable.
"Oh, Luga, do you have any good ideas?" Andrew, who was still puzzled on the side, couldn't help but ask him.
"Yes, yes my friend." Luga said to Andrew and Arecio, "I have come up with a great way to keep me in touch with the Ninth Legion. With that, he exchanged words with Arecio and Andrew.
"What?" Arecio was the first to raise his head and widen his eyes, "You're crazy, Luga, it's too dangerous for such an action. ”
"Yes, Luga!" Andrew also disagreed with Arecio, only to hear him continue: "We still don't know what is going on with the alliance of the Nephilim or even the Saxons, you act rashly like this, not to mention defeat, if you are defeated by them, if it is really as the myth says, the Nephilim are all demigods, how can we mortals be his opponents." ”
"I don't agree!" Arecio is straight to the point.
"Please, this is the only way we can consolidate the current Combined Legion!" Luga pleaded, "You don't know, because of my so-called bad reputation, the young people in the city are afraid to follow me, and there were only more than thirty soldiers recruited at that time, if there are no soldiers who can fight, we will lose sooner or later, and now is not the time for internal strife!" ”
"I agree with you, Luga!" Arecio nodded and said, "But if you think about it, such an action is too dangerous, although the Philphilimians only have this parchment portrait, but who can know what kind of strength they are." ”
"Ha, a good man can't stand up to a lot of people!" Luga smiled and said to the two of them, "Let's first find an opportunity to recover the other cities of Lower Britannia, take advantage of the current drop in temperature, and then prepare to talk to Kevin next year. Seon and Tiberius, the successful instigator of each other! ”
