"They're backing down."

Jutta sat across from Antitina with a bloody face, gasping and looking at the other - the noble daughter's fair face was only a few drops of blood, and her black eyes still had the horror of the previous battle, but she had forced herself to calm down now.

The girl nodded.

The silence technique was not as effective as they thought, they thought it was a panacea, but in the end they found that the effect was extremely limited. Because the battle was already at a fever pitch by the time the spell was cast—command and tactics were secondary—the cavemen were almost simply on the front foot, relying on the force of the onslaught to try to make a hole in the human defenses.

When this was discovered, the mercenaries almost missed the best opportunity, and if it weren't for Fern leading his men up at the most critical moment, with the help of a slight advantage, forcibly sweeping the opponent off the wall, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The most violent wave of attacks was repulsed.

The cavemen, who had suffered so much damage, finally realized that the casualties were unbearable, and they retreated, but the danger of the previous one left everyone in fear.

The battlefield was deserted, except for the heavy gasps of the mercenaries lying behind the wooden walls. No one counted the casualties, because it was unnecessary for the time being, and everyone knew that there was little hope if there was no miracle before the next attack was launched.

"They'll come up," Fern said, sitting on the other side, his whole body aching. However, he looked up at the moon in mid-air and said calmly, "The next attack will be before early morning at the latest, and it depends on when the second group of cavemen arrives." ”

"What are we going to do?" Clenthia asked.

Everyone fell silent.

Even the most determined Antitina, after experiencing the scene between life and death, no longer dares to say that she is 100% sure. It was only the first time she wondered if the lord would really die here if she didn't come again.

But on second thought, if it weren't for Brando, she might have died in that dark, cold and dilapidated house in Prague at any time. Thinking like this, the noble daughter calmed down again.

"Mercenaries act as they do their best and obey the fate of heaven," Fern grinned, "We have seen a lot of life and death." As for them to attack again, we will open the gates and break through separately, and whether we live or die depends on whether Lord Martha is willing to favor all of us present—"

Clenthia was slightly stunned, but there was a self-deprecating wry smile on her face. He shook his head and turned his head again, looked at the noble girl and said, "In this way, Miss Antitina, we have an explanation for your lordship, right?" ”

Antitina was stunned for a moment and nodded: "Thank you." ”

"No thanks." Juta interrupted her, "We're just willing to trust that guy once." But don't worry, even if he doesn't come, I won't leave you two behind. ”

Roman sat across from her, her hands on her knees, her dark brown eyes wide, and she said seriously, "Thank you, you are such a good person." But she smiled and replied, "But Brando will come, and he never says anything big—if he says he can do it, he will do it." ”

"You believe him, little girl." For the first time, Juta noticed the merchant lady.

"Actually," Antitina hesitated, "I'd like to believe the lord's words—"

"It seems that our lord is so charming that he can smeher two beautiful young ladies," a smile appeared on Fern's swarthy face, and he teased rarely, "If I had the ability, I would have died without regrets." ”

Hearing his words, Crenshia on the side snorted disdainfully. This silver-haired and handsome middle-aged man has always prided himself on being a mercenary in the mercenary world, and he couldn't help but think that if this unamorous guy also had this situation, then all the men in the world could go and die headbutt.

Antitina bowed her head slightly, and was silent about such vulgar ridicule with the shyness characteristic of Miss Daughter; Instead, Roman raised her little eyebrows and waved her hand vigorously with a red face: "Wrong, wrong, I didn't believe Brando for this reason."

"What's the reason for that?" Juta couldn't help but ask strangely.

This time even Antitina quietly joined the audience, even though she had followed Brando earlier. But the noblewoman's daughter knew that long before she met Brando, the merchant lady and many others had many stories with the young lord.

She had asked stories about the group's past, but at most it had been the story of the bronze dragon Leto. In fact, she wondered more than once what had happened before Fort Riden, at the very beginning of the invasion of Mardara.

The aristocratic girl had a woman's keen instinct that there must be more to it, but like Roman and Brando's origins, it was an unsolvable puzzle.

All she knew was that there was another woman in the group who was so important. From Brando's mouth, she knew that the girl's name was Freya, and that she was far away from their group at the moment—as for who she was, and what she was doing now, Brando had never said, and she didn't know where to start.

"You don't understand," Miss Merchant's mouth unconsciously showed a slightly smug and mysterious smile, her eyes sparkling: "When Brando escaped from Butch with me, I saw Brando's eyes, and I knew that Brando had become a real man—"

"Because my aunt often told me that a true man is willing to take responsibility for his promises, little Roman must find a man who is willing to protect her." Roman replied slowly, rubbing his hands.

"That's it?" Yuta was a little unbelievable.

Fern didn't say a word, but matched what the young lord had done with one by one. Only Clenthia shrugged disdainfully: "In all the regions I've been, I haven't seen that noble lord who can be called a man, in fact, if one of those guys can produce a seed, I'm going to give it a thumbs up-"

His words gained a lot of approval from the mercenaries around her, but Antitina didn't refute it, she just silently remembered Roman's mention of the word Butcher.

She looked up and was about to say something, but it was at this moment that a mercenary hurrying over from the other wooden wall interrupted the conversation of several people. The comer brings bad news:

"A few regiment commanders, there seems to be movement in the forest. The scout said that the cavemen seemed to be preparing to attack again. ”

Everyone was taken aback, so fast? The previously harmonious atmosphere suddenly disappeared without a trace, and the scene was silent, the mercenaries looked at each other, and a layer of dark clouds silently hung over the heads of everyone present.

Antitina had told them to wait for news of the young lord's victory, but now the clouds seemed to obscure the moonlight, and there was no trace of hope in the darkness.

At this moment, even the aristocratic daughter herself felt a little suffocated.

……

But in the valley, the battlefield changed beyond the expectations of all cavemen.

The metal foal leaped lightly over the center of the battlefield, and Akane was the first to jump off the horse when the silver hoof touched the ground. She landed lightly beside Tajib as she turned her head, her amber pupils reflecting the caveman turning around on the battlefield and lunging in that direction.

The angels summoned by Brando stopped the cavemen who rushed to the front, and those who dared to approach were stabbed to the ground with their swords.

Akane frowned, instinctively feeling that time was pressing. She immediately put the halberd in her hand back, and with a soft 'click' it rested on the neck of the caveman leader who was lying on the ground—

"Let them surrender."

"I ...... dead," Tajib replied in stammering Cruz, "and you too...... Can't live. ”

This guy's cunning was beyond the girl's expectations, she was slightly stunned and then snorted coldly, and replied pretending to be calm: "Don't forget to be smart, we have Pegasus," she let the blade of the gun stick a little tighter, "Give you another chance, let them stop attacking"

Tajib hesitated in his heart, of course he was afraid of death, but it was obviously not that simple, so he decided to take a gamble: "In that case, please arrange for me to meet with Lord Thea-"

Thea is the god of the earth in caveman mythology, and is rumored to be a giant lizard that lives on the elemental plane of the earth. However, among Amber, the player has long proven that it is nothing more than a mythical dragon-like creature, and has nothing to do with gods or anything.

"Don't think I won't dare to kill you" Akane was faintly angry in her heart, and couldn't help but kick it over, this kick was extremely heavy, almost kicking it to the ground and rolling several times.

But this kick confirmed Tajib's suspicion, and he was not afraid, but patted the dust on his body and got up for a long time and replied: "I think...... You can run away, but your companions who remain in the forest...... I'm afraid it's not necessarily safe, right? ”

"You-" Akane choked, she didn't expect the shrewd caveman to guess what they were thinking as soon as she opened her mouth, but of course she couldn't admit it, there was nothing she could do for a while.

"Which faction do you belong to?" Brando took over, and he looked at the other party condescendingly on his horse, "Toland City or Dragontongue City?" ”

His words had an immediate effect, and Tajib cautiously closed his mouth - although it had no eyes, the caveman subconsciously looked up at the young lord - if the expression on its face could be described, it must have been a look of fear of a poisonous snake.

The city of Xuland and the city of Dragontongue are not well-known in the underground of Jorgandegang, but they are the sworn enemies of the dungeon lord to whom Tajib once belonged. This shows that the young man is familiar with the underground world, and Tajib suddenly realizes that his superiority has disappeared, as if a vague sense of superiority has been drained from his body.

It had to re-examine the two humans it had looked down on in the past, and for the first time felt that the other was on an equal footing with itself. But where did the other party come from? Why are Xuland and Dragontongue City mentioned? What do they have to do with their lord's nemesis?

However, since it broke away from the underground world, it has nothing to do with the original lord, and in the underground world of Qiaogendigang, it is very common to change the court, and it can't think of any need for the other party to chase after it.
