Chapter 291: Rescue, Conditions, Hydra's Fountain of Immortality

Even if there is a big wave in his heart at this time, Helok, who is well aware of the way of aristocratic politics and governance, does not dare to express the slightest strength or dissent. Because this will not only be related to his own life and death, but also affect the survival and extinction of the entire Senbo family.

"What is the current situation of the Senbo family? It's not easy for you to persevere so far. ”

Without letting the middle-aged man at his feet get up, Moriarty just asked condescendingly. As a superior, when to be a corporal and when to be dignified, you can't be confused and make mistakes, otherwise you will be laughed at and disgraced.

"Because my family's territory is remote, it was not affected by the first wave of attacks by the Demon Legion. The Lord also thought about bringing his family to the Rhineberg for shelter, but when he heard that the castle had fallen, he gave up on it. Fortunately, there is an ancestral fort in the Ardennes woodland, although it is not large, but the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and then it has been stuck in it and persisted to this day. With his head down, the mid-rank knight reported respectfully.

"It turned out to be the remnant of the ancestors."

Moriarty nodded knowingly. If it was really in the plains, and there was no city like Rheinberg to rely on, then the Senbo family would have been drowned into slag by the demonic frenzy a long time ago.

"What about the current situation?" Moriarty then asked.

"It's bad." Hayluke raised his head and looked at the superior with a look of hope: "After more than a year of hard fighting, although we have repeatedly repelled the attacks of the demons, the food and medicine have almost run out. Moreover, the soldiers who stayed behind were all wounded, and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced. It's hard to hold on any longer. ”

"The lonely city is not defended! Unless there is foreign aid or internal changes in the enemy, after a certain time limit, any high castle will collapse one day. On the other side of Moriarty, Huai nodded.

"That's what the lord said." Helok immediately nodded to the sixth-level warrior as well: "That's why the Lord made a desperate bet and sent me to risk breaking out to find reinforcements." Fortunately, today I really met the adult's extermination troops, and finally saw a glimmer of light in despair! My lord, please save the Senbo family! ”

As he spoke, the mid-rank knight leaned down directly and bowed his knees in front of Moriarty, which was the most humble gesture a mortal could make.

"How many demon legions are there surrounding your house? How strong is it? Moriarty thought for a moment. There was no direct reply. Instead, he continued to ask.

"There are about two hundred little demons, led by a few mid-level horned demons." Hyluke hurriedly replied, "Because our territory is relatively barren and the population is small, the demon has not paid much attention to us, but has been attacking us regularly. ”

"The Senbo family's past 'martial name' is just ordinary. There were only two mid-tier fighters, including Hyluk. "At this time. Hadro added.

"Yes." Moriarty nodded.

A private soldier of a lord's family. With the protection of two mid-level human warriors and the dangerous castle in the mountains and forests, there is really hope to persevere. Of course, this is also a relationship that the devil does not take seriously, as Hellock said. Otherwise, there will be a high-level demon at random. It's enough to push all of Senbo flat.

"What do you think?" Moriarty glanced at White and Hadro on the left and right, respectively.

"A few horned demons plus two hundred little demons are nothing. However, in the mountains and forests, the wolf cavalry is not very suitable. I want Guderian's Warhammer squad to play the vanguard, and with the Iron Fist Company of War and Bruno's point kills, it should be a complete victory. As if he had made up his mind, White smiled directly, and the demon army that had besieged the Senbo family for a year seemed to him to be nothing more than fish on the anvil.

"My lord, although the Senbo family is not big and its strength is limited, it is the noble branch of this county. Now, although my Rhineberg has a strong foundation and is indefatigable, it still lacks the embellishment and support of vassals. Therefore, if you can save Lord Senbo this time, it will also be very beneficial to the post-war political situation and your prestige. The old steward stood in another angle and told the lord Chen the pros and cons.

And hearing the speeches of White and Hadro one after another, the middle-level knights below were also surprised. In particular, the confident tone of the sixth-level one-armed warrior who understated and regarded the two hundred demons as if they were selling their heads suddenly gave Helok great confidence and hope.

"Knight of Hyluke." After a moment of silence, Moriarty finally spoke to the helper.

"Yes, my lord!" The mid-rank knight was stunned.

"I can send troops to rescue Lord Senbo, but I have the conditions."

"Your Excellency, please speak."

Hyluke's voice trembled, but she didn't know what harsh conditions the other party would offer. The most difficult thing to do is the claim for territory, which is the foundation of any Elasia noble. It's just that now the entire Senbo family is on the line, and there is really no room for bargaining, so you can only hope for the kindness of the superior.

"Hehe, don't worry, I don't want your family's land." As if seeing the horseman's apprehension at his feet, Moratiati smiled softly.

"Don't dare." Hyluke immediately shook his head repeatedly.

"My requirements are very simple, after rescuing the Senbo family: first, during the Anti-Demon War, the private soldiers of the Senbo family, including you and another middle-level soldier, must be reorganized, deployed, and commanded by me; Second, after the end of the war, Lord Senbo shall serve me as lord and become a vassal of my family; Third, as for the expenses of sending troops to rescue and entertaining the Senbo family afterwards, we can settle them uniformly, and the Senbo family will repay them in installments after the war, and the specific matters will be handled by Hadro. Saying this, Moriarty paused deliberately, as if giving the other party time to consider, before he said, "What do you think?" ”

"As for the second and third, I think Lord Senbo will agree. But the first oneβ€”" The mid-rank knight was a little reluctant to speak.

"Now that the whole of Erathia is fighting against the invasion of the demon legion, and the Senbo family will inevitably take refuge in the Rhineberg after being rescued, is there anything wrong with our full command of the battle against the demons?" Immediately, White let out a low snort, seemingly dissatisfied with Hyluke's hesitation.

"No, that's not what I meant." The middle-ranking knight immediately defended in a loud voice: "In a state of war, it is naturally reasonable for you to command the anti-demon battle in a unified manner, and my family will not have any objection to this." It's just that after the end of the war, the soldiers who originally belonged to the Senbo family ...

"You can rest assured that once the war against demons is over, if you want to return to the family's soldiers, we will never be in trouble. Of course, if anyone wants to stay, Lord Senbo can't make it difficult. Smiling, Moriarty said cheerfully.

"It's nature. If that's the case, I think the Lord will agree to your terms. As long as the soldiers were allowed to return to their families after the war, Hayluk didn't have much to worry about. After all, it is difficult to leave the homeland, and most of Senbo's private soldiers are from local peasant families, and most of them will still go home once the war is over.

"Then, tomorrow morning, I will send reinforcements to rescue the Sambo family. The specific action is commanded by you, White. Seeing that Hyluk no longer had any doubts about her righteousness, Moriarty decided.

"Thank you, sir!" The middle-level knight immediately bowed down heavily.

"Yes, Your Excellency!" White also made a loud promise. He has been staying in Rheinberg for a long time, and he is quite excited to get a chance to play outside this time.

"Hadro."

"Yes, my lord!" Hearing Moriarty's call, the old steward immediately bowed down.

"Tomorrow you will come with White. There are some words, some things, that it is better for you to give to the Lord. In addition, I would like to tell Lord Senbo about the current situation in Kent, so that it will be easier for everyone to communicate in the future. ”

"Yes, I understand." Hadro nodded knowingly.

"Knight Hyluk, you've worked hard, too. Hadro, you take him down for a while, take a shower, eat something, and move tomorrow morning. ”

"Thank you, sir!"

Immediately, the old steward left with the middle-ranking knight.

"White, to be on the safe side, tomorrow you take Zhukov and Chekov with you. With Naga in charge, even if you encounter a high-level demon, you won't suffer a big loss. After the two had left, Moriarty spoke to his followers again.

"Okay, then let Naga charge. Chekov had already complained to me a few times, saying that he had not been able to make a living by going out with the wolf cavalry to 'gather grain'. White laughed.

"Well, let's do it." Moriarty also smiled, and then slowly took out a potion from his sleeve and handed it to the other party.

"What is this?"

After taking the transparent test tube, I saw that most of it was a clear pink liquid, although it was transparent, it seemed to contain a little bit of indescribable bright spots. And between the tentacles, the test tube was actually a trace of warmth, like the temperature of blood.

As if suddenly he understood something, White suddenly looked up at Moriarty.

"This is the alchemy potion 'Hydra's Fountain of Immortality' concocted with the pearl of Hydra, and it was finally completed." Moriarty smiled at White: "Because the blood and saliva of the hydra monster are already highly poisonous, if you take its crystals directly, I am afraid that you will be poisoned alive, so you can only slowly reduce its toxicity through the guΓ² alchemy array." It's just that no matter how hard I try, the last bit of poison can't be removed. Although it seems that it should be not dangerous, it is really hard to say, I don't know if there will be any side effects. ”

"Drink this and you'll be able to grow your arms again!?"

Holding the potion in the palm of his hand, like holding a baby, White's voice trembled. As for residual toxicity or something, he didn't care about it at all.

"According to the records left in the alchemical texts, taking 'Hydra's Fountain of Immortality' can indeed regenerate people's severed limbs, and can even give the drinker a strong life resilience. So, even if you don't think about your arm, this potion is the perfect match for your 'Thorn Shield'. Moriarty nodded. (To be continued......)
