Chapter 9: a traitor

Chiba Castle. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

By the time Russell and the others brought the victims back safely, a large number of troops and adventurers had already been recruited from various federal cities.

The federation implements the joint politics of aristocratic cities, and the local autonomy is very large, and they all have their own city guards.

"In other words, the aliens are going to attack this place next?"

Russell finishes his mission and is chatting with Og. He was like a mirror in his heart, and he asked this question knowingly just to satisfy Og's desire to speak.

Yes, Ogy is a chatterbox. From the moment Russell saw him, he was pulled by him and talked endlessly, from astronomy and geography to lace gossip, the more he talked, the more he couldn't stop, the more he talked, the more he talked, the original image of a generous elder disappeared.

Now, Russell really wants him to get his touches back

"The aliens are already regrouping and consolidating their armies, and this is the target unsurprisingly."

Og's rational analysis, "Chiba Castle is located in an alluvial plain under the mountains, with mountains and woodlands to the west, and plains to the east. There is no doubt that this is a strategic location.

However, now that the Federation has realized the seriousness of the problem, the new Chief Consul is still very determined, and he has accelerated negotiations with the eastern kingdoms, preparing to focus on solving the crisis here first. Moreover, Chiba City is the most prosperous and developed city in the west, and many powerful people have their roots here, even if the Federation does not act, those big merchants and nobles will never watch their base camp be captured. ”

"Now, the alien races are getting looser and looser, and the forces we have gathered are getting stronger and stronger, and we have a good chance of winning!"

What Og said was exactly right, Russell's memory of the upcoming battle of Chiba Castle was probably like this, as a former academy professor, his knowledge reserve was still very solid.

"But there's another hidden danger."

He showed a puzzled expression, "The enemy is clear and I am secret, until now we don't know who the leader of the enemy is, who is behind the scenes, it is even more difficult to unite that group of alien races, ordinary people will definitely not be able to do it." ”

Russell, of course, knew who was stirring up the trouble behind his back.

It was an unthinkable creature—a son of the devil.

Unlike ogres, giants, and mind eaters, who are hybrids with demonic blood, the Demon Sons are truly purebred demon offspring, hatched from the demon's eggs left in Grantis, and without the demon's own hands, their incubation cycle became long, until this era was born. Although many of them became stillborns, the number was not the goal in the first place, which did not prevent them from being strong, and some of them were even the remnants of the Demon King, once they reached adulthood, at least they went up the golden rank.

It is undoubtedly terrible to be a demon who sneaks into a conspiracy, and they are born liars who are good at seducing, seducing, and playing with contracts. During the same period, Grantis broke out so many big events at the same time, it is difficult to say that there is no invisible hand behind it, and the demon plays this role.

"Is it possible that a demon?"

Russell asked tentatively. Augur was already a wiser man, and if he could think of it, someone else would think of it, at least it showed that Grantis still had people who could see through the fog.

“…”

Ogy opened his mouth, but he stopped talking, and he laughed, "You think too much, how can it be a demon, impossible!" ”

He didn't scoff, just looked at Russell for a while, and his words were a little dry, more like self-comforting.

Ogy didn't fully believe it, and he didn't disbelieve it. It's not inconceivable, and although Grantis hasn't had a demon for tens of thousands of years, it's very reasonable when you think about it. With no exception to the status of a large-scale alliance of aliens in the wild, who can control these evil and depraved creatures? Only more wicked and depraved demons can do it.

But Ogy didn't dare to believe it.

No wonder Augy couldn't believe it, his gaze was unlimited, but his mind was clamped, it was a shackle called fear. The first war of gods and demons is described in ancient epics as follows:

The heavens were torn open with a bottomless crack

The wings of darkness are wrapped in a dark green flame and descend into the world

The earth cracked

The ocean has fallen

Only blood and fire spread

In tens of thousands of years of legends, demons have become synonymous with evil, and people are afraid of them, so how can they be willing to take the initiative to think of them?

"There's a long way to go..."

Doctors can only heal people, not the country, Russell is not even a doctor, how to get rid of the fear in people's bones? Russell didn't know why he was here, he was never a dreamer, but he was a man with a sense of mission, and he believed that he didn't come here for no reason, at least he had to do something and leave some traces to live up to it.

"Why don't you speak, it's not like you."

"It's not because you're talking about something too heavy!"

"Hehe..."

-------------------

Only by being outnumbered do you need to defend the city.

This time, in the face of the fierce siege of the alien race, the federal army went directly out of the city to meet the enemy, and now, they have enough strength to face the enemy.

"Heavy cavalry, charge!"

The commander gave an order, and the earth-shattering horn sounded three times and stopped, and then sounded, and the heavy armored cavalry wearing black iron heavy armor and only showing their eyes was the first to crash into the enemy army.

Their horses are tall and strong, all of them are excellent breeds cultivated by mixing with demonic beasts, and the steel armor is high-quality and refined, once the cavalry of three thousand people rushes up, it is unstoppable, and the torrent of enemies is divided by them.

"Gordon Legion, array!"

In a group of twelve, six with shields and six with Ge, the Ge Shield Corps met the enemy, the shield soldiers covered the side of the Ge soldiers, and once someone was killed, they immediately reorganized the battle formation, they went back and forth in the enemy army, killing non-stop.

"Chiba light horsemen, flank harassment!"

The commander was passionate, and his hoarse voice became more and more passionate. The war drums sounded, and the heavy war song echoed in the air, which was the [inspiring] power of the 'war chant', and the military momentum reached its peak in an instant. Riding white horses and armed with scimitars, light cavalry rolled up billowing smoke and dust, and with the belief of defending their homeland, they charged the enemy from both flanks, constantly drawing the enemy to the flank.

"Fire Legion, fire cover!"

The Fire Legion was almost unscathed while defending the fortress, and mages were precious, placed at the rear of the battlefield and ordered to retreat once their mana ran out.

Under Lawrence's command, the mages raised their staffs and fired fireballs into the center of the enemy, using spells to build a wall of flames that separated the aliens from front to back, further dividing the enemy's army.

There is no way to retreat in front of you, and it is difficult for the troops in the rear to reinforce, and the time has come for adventurers to appear! They are not suitable for frontal large-scale combat, but they are suitable for such chaotic warfare!

Hot.

A bunch of firefighters, and he's an ice controller.

Russell stood in the Flame Legion array, his face full of beef cattle, and waves of heat slapped his face, even if he had [Frost Heart], it would be difficult to gather the ice elemental here.

"Stalker!"

The mage does not have much energy to perceive the outside world when he concentrates on casting spells, and the perception range will be greatly reduced, but Russell is not casting spells, and he quickly senses the enemy lurking in the shadows, sneaking closer.

Polar Ice Piercing!

The icicles scattered and broke ground, and the Stalkers flew out of the way, forcing them to reveal their bodies.

A group of lizardmen, goblins, and spider demons have all reached the silver level in strength.

The faces of the guardians of the mage legion on the side changed greatly, they didn't even notice this group of guys, if these stalkers were allowed to get close to the mages, the consequences were not something they could bear.
