Chapter 285: The Hinder (49/103)

As he spoke, Alan seemed to have thought of something, and a lewd smile gradually appeared on his face.

Simon didn't like this kind of bad taste, he frowned and glared at Allen, and said angrily: "You can save it, I think you have taken a fancy to the tailor, be careful that I go back to Lybor City and tell your wife about this matter, or I will tell Lord Eugen first, and then let Lord Eugen tell it for you." ”

Alan was actually just talking about a joke, but when he heard Simon say this at this moment, he was stunned for a second, and hurriedly said: "Don't, Brother Simon, you can't do this, if you say it, Lord Eugen will pick my skin." ”

"Hmph, it's good to know." Simon smiled with a threatening meaning, then waved his hand and said, "If you have this time, you should go down and study the terrain around Vienna more, I always feel that the task that Lord Eugen will give us next will not be too easy." ”

When it came to business, Alan became serious, thought about it, stopped pestering Simon, agreed, and walked to the side and studied it carefully with the map.

Time passed, and the sunset finally sank completely below the horizon, and the sky was very clear tonight, with no clouds to obstruct it, but there was no moon in the sky, only stars hanging overhead.

Eugen simply lay down on a flat rock, put his arms under his neck, and crossed his legs to watch the night view.

In his memory, he had never seen such a bright and beautiful night sky, and in this era, the artificially created smoke screen did not obscure the sky, and there were no superfluous neon lights dangling in the corners of his eyes.

Night is night, stars are stars, and on this small hill of the Holy Roman Empire, as anywhere else, you can look up and see a view that reaches to the depths of your heart.

Listening to the insects around him and looking at the starry sky, Eugen's mood gradually calmed down.

In his heart, he was not completely sure that he would be able to resolve the crisis in Vienna.

Although he already has a plan at the moment, this so-called 'plan' is a helpless act that is forcibly forced out under all kinds of helpless conditions.

It was a plan rather than a gamble, a psychological gamble between Eugen and the Prussian army commander, and it was impossible to predict who would win or lose.

To put it bluntly, Eugen can only pretend that he is a tiger as much as possible, but he can't become a real tiger, in case the enemy is strong-hearted, even if he risks the annihilation of the whole army, he will storm Vienna, in that case, Eugen will not have any chance.

If there was no way to scare off the Prussian army, the crisis in Vienna could not be lifted, and once Vienna could not hold out, the situation would be completely reversed.

It is certain that His Majesty the Emperor Charles VI will be in danger at the first time, either he will die directly 'accidentally' in the middle of the war, or the Hohenzollerns will take some measures to destroy Charles VI's sanity once again and make him a real 'fool'.

In either case, it was a worst-case scenario for Eugen, with the Habsburgs falling, his lips and teeth cold, and his end not far off.

Eugen didn't like gambling, he hated things that were out of his control, especially those he cared about.

The cold mountain wind blew, and the trees around the hill swayed, making a rattling sound of clashing branches, and an owl crouched on the branches, as if it were glued to it.

Its large head rotates around like a detector, up to 180 degrees, to see what is happening around it.

The grey short-haired rat weaved through the gaps where the rocks intersected with the grass and trees, its big bearded nose sniffing around, and it smelled the smell of food, right in front of the crowd of campfires and tents.

It hadn't eaten a good meal for a whole winter, and the temptation of food overshadowed everything, and the short-haired mouse swept through the grass and swiftly shuttled from grass to tree, rushing towards the place where there was food.

As soon as the mouse moved, the owl immediately spread its wide wings, like an impenetrable net towards the short-haired mouse, being targeted by such an efficient hunter, the short-haired mouse had no possibility of escaping at all, and in the next second, it would become a good meal for the owl.

At this moment, a pair of bare feet suddenly landed nearby, the owl was frightened, flapped its wings and flew into the air, and the short-haired mouse quickly fled back to the stone crevice beside it, and it was saved.

The owner of the big feet did not pay any attention to this, and continued to stride forward, stepping barefoot on the ground like a civet cat, and barely making any sound.

The owners of the feet were covered in black robes, their faces were hidden in the shadows, and they walked silently through the trees, even if they were running, they could control themselves not to make any unnecessary noises, and not to leave any traces of passing.

The black **** is embroidered with six dark red balls, and on the top ball, there is a reverse cross mark.

The Faceless Beings of the Shadow Order, from the moment they left the Po River Line, they always followed Eugen's side, neither near nor far away, they were not noticed at all as if they did not exist, and only appeared when Eugen summoned them, like shadows hidden in the darkness.

Eugen felt a little cold after lying down for a long time, so he sat up from the rock and wanted to move, and casually threw the glass fragment in his hand into the grass.

The shards of glass were originally finger-sized balls containing some unknown liquid, and when the Faceless One handed them to him, he had said that if they crushed them, they would get the word and send someone to help.

Eugen, a modern person, does not understand the principle of this strange method of communication, but guesses that the sphere should be some kind of pheromone, and the corresponding animal will have some strange behavior after feeling this pheromone.

Eugen is not a scientist, he is only useful, and he does not want to explore the truth here, but it also gives him a warning that in this age of ignorance, sometimes there will be some wisdom that he cannot understand.

"Your Excellency, please command."

Eugen stood up, and as soon as he stretched, he was startled by the words of this phrase beside him.

Turning around and frowning and taking a closer look, Eugen saw that there was indeed a man standing in front of him, a black cloth robe, with a six-ball mark on his back, and there was no doubt that this was the Faceless One he had summoned.

"So fast." Eugen muttered softly, and without asking anything, he said directly: "Well, this time, there is indeed a very important task to be entrusted to you. ”
