Volume 9: Outbreak Chapter 23: Backstab (3)

Thorin's little tricks didn't go unnoticed by Sassi, a somewhat crazy subordinate who was a good tool and had little to find fault with other than a few hobbies that people didn't really like. At least that's what Sassi thinks.

Therefore, Sassi has always held an attitude of not opposing or approving of the different "entertainment" of Sorin and others. Players like them have to face the choice between life and death almost every day, and if they don't have any more opportunities to relax, they will become really crazy in a few days, and then they will waste the rest of their lives in a hospital bed, relying on oxygen machines and infusion bottles to survive, just like those predecessors.

In fact, almost the entire Midil mercenary group is composed of people like Thorin, they are the peripheral organizations established by the third group of the Devouring Serpent, and there is a clear difference between them and the previous two groups.

The first ones to be formed were the Chasseurs, most of which were based on the armies of countries that had a relationship with the Eater of Bodies, and as such, were heavily influenced by governments, and only a small part of them belonged to the forces that the Eaters of Bodies fully controlled. Despite this, the Chasseur Regiment, which is mainly composed of soldiers, is still the most combat-effective peripheral organization in the hands of the Devouring Serpent.

The second group is the player corps formed in the name of the territory guard, at that time it was the time when the Devouring Snake opened up the territory on a large scale and established villages and towns, relying on the towns established in various parts of the continent, these player corps began to form quickly and took on the work of defending the territory. The number of these peripheral organizations is far smaller than that of the first batch, and the scale is also different, but they basically belong to the players cultivated by the Devouring Serpent itself, and there are very few guys of unknown origin.

As for the third group of peripheral organizations such as the Midier Mercenary Regiment, they are mainly composed of players who have defected to the Snake of Death, hoping to be protected by this mysterious organization. And the vast majority of these players can't get along in the original environment for various reasons, so they have to seek the shelter of the Devouring Snake, so there are basically few good people among these guys, everyone is full of bad deeds, and even some of them belong to the merciful Lord who dragged them out and shot them for half an hour.

For these players, the Eater of Bodies is completely controlled by fear and profit, and after selection, some of them have potential and worth cultivating, and form a peripheral organization such as the Midil Mercenary Regiment, which is responsible for handling some inconvenient things for the Eater Snake.

But Sassi is different! He was originally the captain of the guard of a small town, and he was appointed just a few months ago and became the leader of the Midil Mercenary Regiment, responsible for training and commanding this group of bad debentures.

There are more than 500 people in the entire Midir mercenary group, and the members are complex, including humans, orcs, werewolves, elves, and even dwarfs and goblins, which look like a world exposition at a glance, but Sassi has to admit that these guys may not be good people, but they can definitely be called ruthless. There is not a single one in the entire mercenary group who is afraid of death, and even many people still enjoy this feeling of wandering between life and death.

"Leave it alone, is it okay?" Mitien glanced at the room, and despite the disgusting sounds coming from inside, the female player didn't show anything out of the ordinary, as if such a scene was as normal to her as eating and drinking.

"It's okay, Thorin will take care of it! And I don't think that elf can keep his sanity after an hour of torture, and don't forget, he can't even go offline now! ”

Mitian shook the staff in his hand, "What if it fails?" ”

"Then Thorin will have to take on this responsibility!" Sassi replied nonchalantly, "While the intelligence of an unknown is unlikely to alert the natives, it does not hide Thorin's dereliction of duty. ”

"I can do it for you!" An abnormal flush appeared on Mitian's face, "I've wanted to try it for a long time, what happens if the mana output is suddenly interrupted in the middle of the teleportation!" ”

For this elf female player who was expelled for using her companion for magic experiments, Sassi didn't want to waste energy correcting the other party's dangerous thoughts, anyway, as long as it didn't get in the way of the mission, it didn't matter what these psychologically abnormal guys wanted to do. Even last week, this woman had just watched Thorin and the others play a female elf player to the point of madness.

"Is there any instruction from Your Excellency Zorene?" The wails from the room gradually became low, and it was clear that the elven player didn't even have the strength to shout, Sassi asked as she walked.

"Not yet, but I just got word from the courier that His Excellency the Death Knight's Order of the Blade will make a final teleportation at midnight today, and perhaps Lord Zorrin's instructions will arrive soon."

"Your hunch is accurate!" Sassi looked at Gabri, the deputy head of the regiment, who was running towards him, and motioned for Mitian to check the setup of the teleportation array again.

The deputy head of the regiment, Gabri, was a human knight, but there was no knightly appearance from his body, the man was naked, only a piece of heart armor was tied to his chest, and other than that, there was no armor. This, combined with the gouging out of his left eye, makes Gabrie look more like a pirate than a knight. Generally speaking, physical injuries such as a pierced eye or an ear cut off can be recovered after treatment, but Gabbri's case is somewhat unique. This man provoked the head of a guild, but the other party found him in reality, and then tortured him for several days, and gouged out one of Gabbri's eyes alive. As a result, Gabbri's character also developed an irreparable disability, making him what he is now.

"Commander, Your Excellency Zoreen has sent an order for us to prepare supplies immediately, and the Kasimov Mercenary Regiment and the Zanli Chasseur will be teleported to us soon."

"Did you tell me why?" Sassi walked briskly towards the center of the village not far away, where their temporary headquarters was located.

"The Kasimov Mercenary Regiment will take over our guards, and together with the Zarei Chasseurs, we will clear out several watchtowers on the side of the Monas Hills near the Moxi Valley."

"Looks like the final step of the plan is about to begin!" Sassi waited for this instruction for four days, he didn't want to stay in this place anymore to watch the play, only by making meritorious deeds, he had a chance to get rid of his current position, and always wiping the butts of this group of problem children really annoyed him to the extreme.

For a while, the entire Hall Village went from a deathly silence to a brightly lit crowd in an instant. Boxes of supplies that had been prepared for a long time were moved out of various houses by the players of the Midir mercenary group and stacked on the small square in the center of the village, and the enlarged teleportation array was also reactivated, and the rich white light unique to the teleportation array immediately reflected the entire small square clearly.

Soon, heavily armed figures appeared in the teleportation array, and then rushed out, lining up in the open space on the side of the small square. As long as these players from the Kasimov mercenary group gathered ten people, they immediately formed a team and ran towards the outside of the village, taking over the garrison of this area from the players of the Midir mercenary group.

The whole teleportation process lasted for half an hour, and in the last ten minutes, the players who appeared in the square through the teleportation array were the players of the Praise Chasseur, which was a hunting regiment composed entirely of human players, and at a glance, there were only two classes, that is, knights and priests!

"Hello, Captain Sassi! I'm Andy, the commander of the Salute Hunters, Andy Kavin! The last knight player to emerge from the teleportation array walked up to Sassi and said to Sassi, he was wearing a heavy full knight armor, and a helmet on his head that only showed a thin slit, and the entire armor was painted silver, which looked very dazzling in the light of the teleportation array.

The entire Zanli Chasseur was similarly equipped, with four hundred knight players wearing knightly armor similar to Andy's, and one hundred priest players wearing easy-to-move leather armor with a linen cloth cover, and holding a uniform style of short-handled staff and dagger in their hands.

"Your supplies are here!" Sasi pointed to the supply boxes stacked in the square, "A total of 1,400 bottles of primary holy water, 500 bottles of fire elixir, 500 fire elemental crystals, and 50 sets of Sadarin Kingdom's standard cavalry armor and corresponding banners and weapons. ”

Andy nodded: "We will set off in half an hour, divided into four small forces to operate, the target is the eleven outposts set up by the Kingdom of Sadalin in the Monas hills, this is the map." ”

Sasi took the map handed over by the other party, and the map made of magic paper carefully depicted the terrain of the small half of the Monas Hills, as well as the roads suitable for traffic, as well as the targeted outposts, which were distributed in all directions of the Monas Hills, maintaining a distance of at least tens to hundreds of kilometers from each other.

"Got it! We'll be on the move half an hour after you leave! ”

"The first target is here, here, and here!" Andy pointed to three outposts on the map, "These three outposts are the most important targets, one of them is responsible for stockpiling supplies for other outposts, and the other two are intermediate nodes for information transmission, as long as these three targets are killed, the remaining outposts are equivalent to losing ears and eyes, and it is much easier to deal with them!" ”

Obviously, the other party has made a lot of preparations for this mission, and this map alone is enough to prove it, you know, similar to this kind of troop deployment map is already considered a military secret, even if the Zanli Chaser Regiment itself is operating in the Sadarin Kingdom, it is impossible to easily obtain this kind of thing, the only explanation is that these chaspers completed the production of this map through field mapping.

"I have no opinion!" Leave the professional work to the professionals, and Sassi feels that he and his gang of troubled children are best at killing, so he decides to do it well, and as for the rest, leave it to Andy and his Zanli Hunters to do!

Andy is very happy with Sassy's reaction, and he is not willing to work with a very expressive pig teammate, sometimes a pig teammate is even more terrifying than a strong opponent.

The leader of the Praise Chasseur turned and raised his hand to the chaspers, and soon fifty knight players walked out, carrying the supplies in pairs, and began to distribute them.

"Let me ask you a digression, after this mission is completed, I'm afraid you won't be able to stay in the Sadarin Kingdom anymore, right? What's next? Anyway, there was still some time before departure, and Sassi asked casually.

Andy was silent for a moment.

"If it's inconvenient for you to say, I didn't ask, I was just curious, and I didn't mean anything else!"

"If the mission goes well, our identities will not be revealed, and there is a great possibility that the under-armed Sadalin Kingdom will put us in the border garrison to supplement the gap in the forces on the Monas hills." Andy finally answered Sassi's question, "If the mission doesn't go well, we will immediately disband the hunting regiment, break into pieces and lurk in the kingdom of Saddarin, waiting for an opportunity, we will not leave this kingdom until we receive new orders!" ”

Sassi had to admit that the other party was worthy of the elite power of the Devouring Snake, and this courage and execution alone was enough to throw off the Midil mercenary group for several streets, if he put the group of mercenary players under his command in the same situation, maybe they would fall apart immediately after disbanding the mercenary group, and run away to other kingdoms one by one in order to escape for their lives, where would they risk being wanted and stay in the Sadarin Kingdom.

For a moment, the scene fell silent, and the only sound in the square was the sound of the hunters handing out supplies.

After making sure everyone had received their standard share of supplies, Andy nodded to Sassi and summoned his mount, a military horse branded with the emblem of Sadarien's kingdom.

The entire Zanli Chasseur was divided into four units, each with a number of knights and priests who had changed into the armor and weapons of the Sadarin Kingdom border garrison provided by Sasi, and carried the corresponding flags in their hands.

"Alright, it's time for us to go!" Andy pulled the reins and said to Sassi, "I hope you're not late!" ”

According to the plan developed by Zolene Britz, the chasseurs of the Zanli Chasseurs would first disguise themselves as a communication team of three to five people, enter the outposts under the pretext of being attacked by werewolves, find out the number and strength of the soldiers in the outposts, and then send a signal to their companions who are wandering outside, and the chaspers who receive the signal will send the news to the Midir mercenary group, and the mercenary group will attack.

If the outpost is insufficient or weak, the mercenary group alone is enough to capture the target, and if the outpost has a large number of troops or strength, so that the mercenary group cannot capture it in a short time, the wandering hunters will join the battle as reinforcements from the outpost, and then take advantage of the opponent's unpreparedness to assist the mercenary group in capturing the outpost.

In order to guard against the werewolves of the Garibel Valley, the Kingdom of Sadarien built hundreds of outposts on the Monas Hills, each with hundreds of soldiers and as few as a dozen soldiers, and if nothing else, they would hardly be the opponents of these mercenaries and hunters.

And the mercenary group that is about to attack these outposts is not the only one Midir mercenary group, in fact, the Devouring Serpent has arranged a total of seventeen mercenary groups and nine hunting groups to launch an attack on sixty-three outposts tonight, which will eventually create a large area of intelligence on the Monas Hills.

At that time, it will be time for Yu Bin's undead legion to appear!
