Barrett, who was ready in front of the masonry building, did not immediately attack, but waited for the search personnel in the opposite alleyway to be in place. 【】

Suddenly, the crystal on a silver pin hanging from Barrett's chest began to glow, and Barrett, who knew that the encirclement was complete, only left one sentence: "Follow me!" ”

A knife slashed at the door of the house - after previous reconnaissance, the captors already knew the general structure of the building. According to the original concept, the dark black teak door was to be made of a small portable battering ram

It's just the impact.

But with Barrett's humanoid bulldozer, it's all a little easier. The wooden door in front of me was just an intimate contact. Barrett completely blasted open the wooden door that had been sealed from the inside.

At the moment when the door collapsed, Barrett kicked his leg and rushed into the house, followed by the members of the guard who followed him. At the same time, a dense noise rang out from up and down the room.

Stepping into it, Barrett ignored the darkness and made a beeline for the least loud but lightest attic with his ability to hear and distinguish sounds with enough blindness to provide a blinding effect.

At the same time, out the back door of the house, the leader of the other team skillfully instructed his teammates to throw the crockpot in front of one of the most moving doors.

In a short period of time, a large area of grease covered the floor in front of the door with a thick layer. Soon the humanoids rushed out from behind the door and rolled to the ground, covered in a layer of sticky grease.

It can be seen that this is not the first time that these captors have done such things. The subsequent flying nets and lassoes became effective tools to further restrict the opponent's movements.

But just when these suspicious elements were about to be wiped out, a dazzling spark ruined all this. Fireballs falling from the sky instantly engulfed those who fell to the ground. The heat wave that followed consumed a large area of grease, igniting everything around it, and the fierce flames enveloped all the targets outside the room.

"Hell, are they going to kill them?" Outside the door, the arrest captain who thought he could already see the promotion and fortune let out such an angry roar.

Fire is something that the vast majority of necromancers hate. Because of the corpse that has been treated with flames, the difficulty of casting spells on it will increase exponentially. It's clear that one of the building's higher-ups is trying to break his wrist to protect himself.

The ignition had already flown out of the window on the second floor, and then disappeared into the darkness of the night and the long fog.

It's a pity that the guy's self-righteous stealth means don't work at all in Barrett's eyes: 'I didn't expect this operation to clean up the small trash fish to bring out a big shark.' ’

Barrett, who thought of this, chased after him without saying a word. All that remained was the chaotic shouts left outside the house: "Hurry up and save people!" How many can survive is a few. These are important prisoners. ”

It can be said that this arrest activity ended somewhat in a hurry, thanks to the correct response of the high-level of the target elements. Fortunately, after the efforts of the team members, the fire that was ignited here did not cause harm to the city.

But it didn't mean the end, with a 'click, click' sound jumping up and down on the rooftops of Barrett's buildings in Poitou. Although his steps were light and contrasted greatly with his size and equipment, it didn't stop him from moving like a big horse monkey - even then, Barrett still hadn't revealed the secret of his ability to fly.

Soon the fleeing man in black spotted Barrett in hot pursuit, only to see that he turned around with a sticky cobweb large enough to envelop elephants and rhinos, but unfortunately this thing landed on Barrett and luckily triggered the effect of the 'flash' spell. Falling onto the roof behind him, he entangled the chicks in a nest and couldn't move.

"Whoosh" was followed by Barrett's counterattack, and the counterweight throwing axe thrown with this charge was amazingly powerful. It tore through the air and made a 'whirring' sound, forcing the casters in front of it to roll over and dodge - not daring to use their protective spells to connect hard.

The two chased and fled on the rooftops of the city, and the commotion immediately attracted a large number of city guards - more importantly, Barrett was clearly intent on driving him to the nearest small square in the bureau. After the buildings in front of him disappeared and he didn't have time to change course, the caster had to race against Barrett for speed again.

At this moment, the city guards stationed near the observation immediately surrounded them. In the face of such a front and rear encirclement, I saw that the man in black waved his hand, and in the blink of an eye, many black otherworldly tentacles grew under the feet of the city guards who surrounded him. These creatures, like swarms of octopus, wrapped their feet around the soldiers' feet and struck them hard.

Seeing this scene, Barrett guessed without malice why the other party would prepare this kind of spell for no reason - could it be because of physical problems that he chose to use spells to relieve his psychological desires?

'Acceleration', 'White Fang Tactics', 'Shrinking the Ground', and 'Divine Speed' had raised his speed to the highest Barrett had lost his form, and could only see a figure flash past the target in an instant.

Then came the sound of "crackling" like fried beans—it was the wail of the talisman spell beside the man in black. In the blink of an eye, the light blue and lilac protective aura continued to dissipate from its surface.

Immediately after that, Barrett, who had finally figured it out, swept away the counterweight ball at the end of the handle of the 'Broken Peak' knife, and the metal ball that was not light hit the back of the man in black's head like this. This blow seemed to be the other party's last sign up, and a very conspicuous crack appeared in the pendant of the golden necklace on the chest of the man in black.

"Bang!" The sound of falling to the ground was quite slight, and it seemed that the man in black had no weight like his petite body. Unfortunately, even though the caster had fallen, the black tentacles that were still making trouble for the soldiers did not disappear.

After the soldiers fled the tentacle area in disarray, they quickly applied some sort of elaborate chain of gloves to the target's gloves, taking off the target's pair that would have been easy to cast - locking the already slender fingers and wrists to prevent the creature from making any spellcasting gestures.

Then there was a black leather strap that was tightly wrapped around the guy's mouth. As long as the opponent has a mouth, this belt can be embedded in it, blocking the preparation sound that the opponent needs when casting the spell.

Finally, a metal crown full of thorns was embedded in the top of his head, causing him to wake up with severe pain that prevented him from concentrating on building a spell model.

Of course, there is one thing that cannot be forgotten, which is to take his most important treasure, the spell book, away from him. After being searched inside and out, the delicate young woman with her official face was stripped naked in the street—and the soldiers were inevitably on the ground in the process.

In another part of the city, the flying fiery serpents flowed beneath the night sky, their lightweight spears skillfully wielding in the hands of four gunmen. In front of the pikeman were two shield swordsmen and two other heavy swordsmen. Two on the left and right, who seemed to be protecting the pikemen.

But in reality, this is not the case. the long-handled blades that the pikemen wielded; Tell yourself about the enemies in front of you, dressed in light armor and armed with sharp knives and short blades; What is an inch long and an inch strong.

With this advantage in attack distance, he does not seek to kill or injure the enemy, but only to make it impossible for the enemy to move normally and swing as he wants. The heavy swordsman in front of the pikemen took advantage of the situation and suppressed the opponent's arrogance in an instant. The shield swordsman is carrying out the work of picking up and filling in the gaps, serving as a guard and support.

Crossbowmen and archers, who followed this melee class, did not shoot as dense a rain of arrows as they did on the battlefield. They are now focused on aiming, looking for all threatening or high-value targets for targeted killing, and doing their part for the smooth progress of the entire team.

At various intersections outside the city, cavalry teams composed of followers of the knights patrolled repeatedly to prevent the targets inside from scattering and escaping. The multi-ball rope around their waist is an effective tool to slow down or even deter the movement of others.

This kind of object is actually similar to a tripwire, but it is made by tying several ropes with heavy objects together, and when swinging, it can be thrown by inertia, and can wrap around the body and limbs of the prey. Of course, if you are hit by a whirling weight, it will also cause quite serious injuries.

From time to time, a light cavalry can be seen wielding one of the multi-ball trapping ropes to throw, while the other grabs the center of the rope to throw, and then gallops up towards the target that was hit.

———————— make up tomorrow————————

The horses neighed, the voices of the people were loud, and a team of men and horses stepped into the gates of Poitou.

Except for the dozens of cavalrymen who surrounded them, all the soldiers sat on the open caravan. This is not only to save physical strength, but also to speed up the march when the road conditions are good, after all, two legs are always inferior to four legs in such a thing as rushing.

It was also a way for dragoons to work in tandem with regular infantry, often in response to reinforcements between towns, and perhaps for some time-critical but not demanding tactical diversion.

The only constraint is the terrain and road requirements, and it can be said that this way of marching is extremely easy for the enemy to grasp the route. Therefore, when to use it on the battlefield and how to use it is a matter that greatly tests the judgment and command skills of the commander.

However, in this kind of large-scale transshipment similar to that of post-war retreats, it is indeed a quick and effective method as long as it is in a relatively safe area. However, the cost of investment and maintenance required for such a march is greater than that of an ordinary infantry march. Therefore, quite a few territories did not choose such a way, and only a few wealthy lords would make such an arrangement. In a way, this is also a big feature!

Of course, the special caravans in the middle of this team, each of their parts was unusually heavy, and it was obviously specially reinforced. If someone pays attention, it is possible that rare metal parts are still used in some parts, which shows the maker's intentions.

If it weren't for this reinforcement, how could the caravan originally designed to run merchants withstand the many tosses on the battlefield without dropping the chain. Of course, this reinforcement inevitably brought about an increase in the weight of the body, and the caravan, which originally only needed two horses to carry the normal trade route, became required to be dragged by four horses under this transformation.

Of course, such carriages were not only loaded with soldiers who shed their blood, but also carried the task of transporting ordnance, tents, bedding, and food and grass. In a sense, they were also a baggage team in the army—the soldiers sat shoulder to shoulder on the benches on either side of the wagon, and the supplies needed were in the center of the wagon.

However, a team of more than 3oo people can cause such a big noise when entering the city, and the most important thing is the eager eyes of the military families who have been waiting on both sides of the road to reunite with their loved ones.

Qiao Ji also put down his affairs today, and made a special trip to wait for the city gate to welcome these returning warriors. Although for them, the waving arms of their loved ones and the faces of tears of excitement are far more precious than the statements of those in power like Georgie. But what should be done is to be done after all, which not only shows that the lord attaches great importance to the expeditionary force, but also gives people an image of being close to the people by standing with the military families.

Isn't this how people's hearts and prestige are accumulated little by little and gradually cultivated? The time is not to be followed, the geography is predestined, only this person can be grasped. Even if the people's will is unpredictable, there is a certain law after all, and the accumulation day after day will eventually be the day when the quantity becomes qualitative.

After seeing each other in such a face-to-face manner, the soldiers did not disband on the spot and go home to reunite. They also need to go to a camp outside the city to do their last job before returning home - psychological counseling by the priest and the last part of the income they earn as mercenaries during this time. The previous part had already been given to their families by the generous lord of Georgie, which was beneficial for most of the soldiers to ease the pressure on their families after their long journey.
