Act 104 Tonigel and the Young Lord (Part 2)

However, after a series of discussions, Brando said that it was a good strategy for everyone to use the seemingly crazy practice of putting wizards on the front line.

Because the role of wizards is not only to send back information, but also to conceal, clear information and avoid pursuit, they are far superior to ordinary people.

But even so, Charles only supported doing this in the early stages of the war, because it might have a surprise effect, but once the opponent understood their methods, then the loss of every wizard would be unbearable.

Brando could only choose to accept this statement, he knew that Charles was not right, of course he was not wrong, but the time was wrong, the biggest magic wave in history was far from coming.

Then Brando glanced at the mercenary who had delivered the letter, took the letterhead, opened it, and looked at it; But his expression became solemn almost instantly, almost cloudy, and seemed to be even more ugly than the gray sky at this time.

Akane and the little princess of the silver elf in the back couldn't help but glance at each other with some concern when they saw the young man like this, they rarely saw Brando's solemn look, what happened?

"Your Excellency?" Medisa asked in a whisper.

Brando shook his head.

The message on the letter was simple, it only truthfully stated that a clan of mountain people had appeared in Pallas. It can be said that this letter will probably not attract attention if it is placed in the hands of any of Brando's subordinates at this moment.

The term hill people was already common in the territory of Jean Denel, and these natives were at war with Eruin, outsiders, almost all year round, and Sir Pallas did not deal with them for a year or two, but almost for most of his life.

If anyone else had seen the message, "I'd probably be glad that the old knight was in trouble again, but the letter meant something different to Brando's eyes."

"Looks like we're going to have to add a new list of enemies."

The young lord smiled helplessly, and handed the letterhead to Métisa, "But the little princess of the silver elf just glanced at it, and after she was stunned for a moment, she asked, "Mountain people? They are not the enemies of Count Denel, my lord, you said that the knights of Pallas have been fighting against them all year round, why should they join them in attacking us? ”

Métissa asked, puzzled.

The hill people were divided into many tribes, and the clan mentioned in the letter came from the eastern part of the Grajar Mountains, and they had always been nominally under the authority of Count Jean Denel, but the hill people had a strong sense of territory, and they rarely migrated to other regions on a large scale, "much less out of their Dominions"

"That?" Although Akane didn't understand military affairs, she could also hear the abnormality in Brando's tone.

"I don't think they're here for a slumber celebration, I don't know what Denel promised these diehards, but the mountain people are definitely coming for us."

"It's okay" Akane snorted softly: "It's the same for whoever comes, we will defeat them." ”

Brando only smiled when he heard this, he knew that the red-haired girl was just cheering herself up.

But Medisa was calmer: "Is it a big problem?" She asked.

Brando shook his head: "Of course it will increase the pressure on us" But it's hard to say how much, I believe that the old fox of Count Denel must have mobilized more than such a mountain clan."

He looked into the distance, the snow had turned the streets foggy, "It looks like I underestimated these people who have been fighting all day, beasts, ah! ”

Although Brando said it easily, he actually didn't know how many mountain people would enter Pallas, maybe the food supplies provided to these people would be a bottleneck, but Brando didn't know how much supplies could be mobilized in his territory, in what time.

But in any case, "Pallas's army, the mountain people, and the death of Madara."

The young man couldn't help but frown deeply.

"Are you going to inform Miss Antitina?" Medisa asked.

Brando shook his head, "Antitina stayed at the south gate, and the nobleman's daughter had to supervise the mercenaries to pay the workers," and the wages were settled in the copper crosses of the port, and each person was only a few coppers.

It's not a lot of money" is better than nothing, and it can be said that the symbolism is more significant. The nobleman's daughter intended to save the money, but this was part of Roman's overall revival plan, and the latter naturally could not agree.

In the end, Antitina was angry, so she simply dragged the guy together and left her on the construction site, thinking of this, Brando couldn't help but smile and shake her head even though she was in a heavy mood.

He thought of the way little Roman pretended not to know and wanted to get rid of it, but unfortunately in the end he was dragged back by the serious noble lady who instructed Flo to go back.

The young lady was different from him, even if the latter was pretending to be teary-eyed, she could be just as unmoved, although Antitina was probably Roman's best girlfriend besides Freya.

But in business, the noble lady doesn't know how to talk about it at all.

As long as the thought of the little guy who often gave him a headache and was helpless in front of Antitina with a sad face and a helpless face, Brando found it very interesting.

At the beginning, he was still glad that he was lucky to hide quickly, otherwise little Roman would definitely rely on him, although Antitina can do what she says to others, but there is nothing she can do with this young lord.

Thinking of this, he shook his head a little amusedly, and returned to the matter at hand. The young man patted the letterhead on his hand: "Actually, I want to know, who sent this information back?" ”

"What do you mean?"

"Ordinary people probably won't notice these mountain people, because they are too ordinary for this place, which means that what we think of, the person who sent the message back must have thought of it." There's something strange about Brando.

He knew this because he had knowledge and vision beyond this world, and in fact he wouldn't have been able to see anything from the letter if it weren't for something he had said to Charles during the casual conversation.

And in addition to him and Charles, everyone else is even more so~

So who is the person who sent this letter back to be sacred?

Brando was wondering, but for a moment he noticed that the messenger in front of him was looking at him, looking like he wanted to say something. The young man was slightly stunned and asked, "Is there anything else you need?" ”

"Yes, my lord......" The elemental made his face a little strange, and replied in a hesitant manner, "Just now, Lord Charles sent me another letter, saying that it was addressed to you, my lord. ”

"What happens when an envelope is posthumously issued?" Brando asked with a frown, wondering what the hell that guy was up to again.

"Do you want to see it, my lord?"

"Of course," Brando said angrily, since they all said it was for him, can you not read it? However, he stared at this elemental envoy with some confusion, and no matter how he looked at the other party's words, it seemed a little out of place.

"That," but the other party's face became even more strange, "My lord, can you turn back first?" ”

Back? Which one is this?

Before Brando could react, he saw the shadow of the gun flash from his side, and Akane had already stretched out the spear around the guy's neck.

"Take it out!" Akane said coldly.

The elemental envoy froze, or rather, he was visibly frightened and trembled, but with a bitter face he took out a strange creature from under his robes, one of his demons.

It only took one glance for Brando to recognize the strange creature, and so did everyone else, because it was just a duck.

Ducks as demons?

This time it wasn't just Brando, even Akane and Métisha were stunned.

One of these three is an experienced player, one is a princess of the Silver Elf Empire, and the other is a mercenary who has participated in many battles, most of them have dealt with all kinds of wizards, elementals, and even witches, but they have seen all kinds of strange people.

But I've never seen a wizard who uses a duck as a demon.

Brando stayed for a long time before he reacted and nodded: "Very good, very personal." "In his impression, there are more people who use all kinds of strange magic spells, and most of the elemental envoys should not use goblins to make demons?

"My lord," the elemental envoy said with a sad face, "It's none of my business, I didn't have a demon in the first place. This thing............ This thing was given ......to me by Lord Charles, and it was given to me that using ducks as demons can bring luck. ”

"It's really lucky," Brando shook his head at his eccentric servant, "What's your name?" ”

The first time he took a closer look at this guy, the other party was actually just a young man about the same age as him, and he was quite good-looking. But since I saw this guy take out a duck as a demon, I feel that the other party is happy about how he looks at it, if he was born in his time, he would not be a comedian.

He looked back at Akane and Métisa, who were fine, but Metissa was visibly amused.

"My lord, I used to be just an apprentice, and they all called me Porco Rosso."

"Red Groove"

"That's the name of a monster in my hometown"

Brando, he also remembered that kind of monster in his thirties, with a fierce temper, and rough skin, basically few people were willing to deal with that thing He looked at the duck on his right hand again, coughed, and said a little funny: "It's better to be like this, you will follow me in the future, it just so happens that I need an apprentice." ”

"Your Excellency, you need an apprentice?" The elemental envoy was stunned: "My lord, are you a wizard?" ”

"No" Brando shook his head: "I'm an elemental envoy, anyway, don't ask nonsense, you just follow me"

Elemental make?

The person was stunned again, and the elemental envoys could usually sense each other's existence, especially the high-level elemental envoys had an innate oppressive force for the low-level existence.

But he didn't feel that this young lord had such oppressive power in him, and there was only one possibility, that is, the other party's strength was weaker than his own, or it was about the same as him.

But this possibility made the apprentice not even dare to think about it, the other party was the legendary all-powerful lord, he had only seen this lord from afar a few times before, but he had heard the mysterious and powerful legends of the other party many times.

But isn't the other party a swordsman in the Golden Realm? How did it become an elemental again?

The more the young man who was nicknamed "Porco Rosso" thought about it, the more confused he became.

But Brando only waved at him, he did need an apprentice but not just an apprentice, but to prepare for another plan for him, which must now be on the agenda.

The appearance of the mountain people as enemies inexplicably made Brando feel urgent.

"That's it," he said, and glanced at the young man: "In the future, if you follow me, I will give you a name and call it Demon Duncan~"

"Demon Duncan?" The young man was stunned.
