September 24, afternoon.

In the parlor of the Duke's Palace, a large map of the city of Hollier was placed in the center of a long desk. The afternoon sun shines through the glass in the hall, but the room has no warmth due to the stagnant atmosphere.

The discussion of the three people at the table was intermittent, two voices were slightly old, and the other was too young. And if you tell the identity of these people, you feel that such a scene is really a bit inconsistent: one is the Duke of Angmar, the lord of Ivotah, and the other is the "Rosicrucian" Overarch Rubens... The last one was Roddy, the captain of the Nolan Village Scout.

"This kind of thing is really a bit unexpected, and if it were an ordinary assassin, I'm afraid I wouldn't be bothered, but since it's an act of revenge by the undead, I decided to ask Master Rubens to help me. ”

At this time, it was the Duke of Angmar who spoke, his gaze swept over the map in front of him, and then stopped on the overseer next to him, "I wonder what Lord Rubens thinks?"

"Fighting the undead is one of the teachings of the Rosicrucius, so we are happy to do it. ”

The Exgey's answer was clear, and he said this because the Rosicruche was a clear advocate of "purifying" the dead.

Angmar's "assistance in the battle" was in fact a political "friendship", that is, the friendly cooperation between the "Rousifron family" and the "Rosicrucian" -- for Rubens, it was not only a meritorious service within the sect, but also a sufficient propaganda role for the outside world, or an ambush war with great chances of victory, and he naturally had no reason to refuse such a good deed.

"We are in agreement, and the next thing is easy to do, and Roddy also told you about the general situation just now, so..."

Duke Angmar pointed to the huge city plan and whispered, "Without further ado, let's start talking about the plan now." ”

"How to identify them in the first place is a priority..."

"Combat should be limited to this..."

"Soldiers can be mobilized from everywhere, but..."

Looking at the map, the two old men frowned and thought about the possible plan, obviously at this time they only had the general framework of the plan in their minds, and the specific implementation still needed the coordination of the two forces. Although both of them are extremely courageous superiors, with first-class brains and abilities, in the face of an unknown number of enemies and unknown strengths, such a plan really seems to have no clue at all.

After talking to Rubens for a long time, Angmar then realized that Roddy, who was standing next to him, didn't seem to have any meaning to speak, and thought that the other party had some scruples, so he smiled and said, "By the way, Roddy can tell me your opinion." Our two old men may have limited vision, maybe you can give some good advice?"

His words were not entirely about taking care of the juniors, and he naturally had some expectations in his heart - but Angmar naturally didn't think that Roddy was silent for a long time, in fact, he was waiting for his words...

"I do have some opinions," Roddy paused, looking at the two old men as if to confirm again, "I'm just saying it's okay, right?"

Angmar and Rubens looked at each other, the two old men said that they had been saved by Roddy, and the connection was far from an ordinary relationship, and the duke immediately laughed: "What's so restrained about this?"

"That's good. ”

Roddy nodded, and... Reaching out and taking out more than a dozen pieces of parchment from his pocket, which had just been written at noon.

"This is the movement map of the personnel..."

"This is the way to confirm the enemy..."

"The speech on the 25th is an opportunity to ..."

"Lord Duke can hold a medal ceremony here, just on the morning of the 26th..."

"The city wall has secretly begun to make arrangements this evening, and it is said to the outside world that it is to prevent the infidels from making trouble again..."

"You must pay attention to the equipment problem, the opponent's strength may be very strong, so our advantage is..."

One thing after another began to be listed in an orderly manner by Roddy, and at first it sounded like it was just a problem that everyone could be aware of, and even ordinary people had a feeling of "I can think of it, it's not a big deal" after listening to it. But when he begins to explain the details step by step, to make assumptions and solutions to all possible scenarios, the kind of thinking that only modern people can have, is markedly different from the usual thinking of this era...

At first, the two old men listened to him talk about the things they had already knew, but gradually, their expressions began to become solemn.

Angmar and Rubens were supposed to be just "throwing bricks" at Roddy, after all, their wealth of experience and long tenure in high positions meant that in this era they were the "deciders" of the plan - that is, they did not intend for Roddy to "direct" or "plan" this in the first place.

But as Roddy explained his plan in depth, the two old men involuntarily moved their eyes to the map, one by one, the alternatives... Even down to the weapons that each soldier needed to carry, where they were, and the direction in which the enemy might retreat or break through - in short, when Roddy finished telling all this, the two old men found out...... With their self-proclaimed picky eyes, they can't find anything to add!

In the big picture, Luo Di doesn't think he has many advantages, but if it is this kind of local battle or copy type battle, Luo Di must have more experience than anyone else!

Be realistic, no empty talk, no unreliable assumptions, all plans are the right way, speaking of which Luo Di has at this time, to a certain extent, is in line with the "right way of war" in this era, so that the two knowledgeable old men have a much deeper view of him again.

This is the first time that Luo Di has shown his "talent" in front of them in addition to fighting, and such a detailed and specific explanation and planning really made the two old men speechless for a long time - first confused, curious, then suddenly, and finally sighed...

"Now it seems that my previous worries are a little unnecessary. ”

Duke Angmar exhaled slowly, but suddenly there was a mood of "joy to see the hunt", and he simply changed the topic and said: "Last time, I said that I would give you a baron, but I thought about it, and I think it seems more appropriate for you to stay by my side - Roddy, have you considered it..."

Such words already indicated that he wanted to cultivate Roddy, and Rubens couldn't help but quickly interrupt with a helpless expression: "Duke Angmar, it's not too late to talk about this kind of thing when it's over..."

But when he turned his head, he looked at Roddy and said, "Today I am going to return to the convent with Sister Sally, and in order to thank Captain Roddy for his contribution and help to the 'Rosiccross', I have a scroll there, which may be used as a thank you for saving your life..."

Listening to these words, Luo Di's face was polite and polite, but he finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: a message, a plan, in exchange for the trust of the two forces, this deal is worth it...

On the evening of September 24, a number of notices were posted in the city of Horlier to the effect that there were three things: the first was to announce that the "Rosia Cross" was going to give a speech in the city again on the 25th, and at the same time, various wanted notices were posted for the members of the "Pit Viper Cross".

The second event was when the Duke of Angmar announced that he was about to perform a ceremony to confer knighthood on the 26th.

The third is a supplementary note, that is, the Duke decided to open only the west gates during the day and close all the gates at night during the three days of the 24th, 25th, and 26th, and impose a curfew on the whole city.

As soon as this announcement was issued, groups of soldiers began to run over the normally peaceful city walls, carrying all sorts of ordnance in their hands, and even large machine crossbows, which had not been wound for a long time, were greased and assembled.

The soldiers prepared the fortifications with grim faces, the walls were lit up by torches, the gates were closed by the sun set, and then patrols began to patrol the main roads of the city, and when they stood on the west gate and looked down, all the nearby streets were visible.

When it was completely dark, a horse-drawn carriage passed down the street, and the wolf emblem on the outside of the ornate carriage represented the identity of the Roussiflon family, and if you looked closely, it was the scout Ruger who was sitting outside the carriage waving the horsewhip, and in the carriage were Roddy and Sodrore.

In the afternoon, he followed Rubens to the abbey, and it was not until dinner that Roddy and his two strongest men returned to the Duke's palace. Inside the carriage, Sodrore was chatting with Roddy on a ride.

"By the way, what kind of scroll did the Overseer give you today?"

"He said that it is a very precious thing, it seems to be able to improve people's strength in a short period of time or something, and he didn't explain what the specific effect is," Roddy casually took out a scroll with intricate patterns from his pocket and waved it, then changed the topic and asked, "By the way, have you been in contact with the Wellington Knight?"

"As you said, I've tried my swordsmanship with Knight Titus a few times," Sodrore sighed as he spoke, looking powerless, "the gap is too big, I feel like I can't learn anything, and I'm beaten like a dog..."

"Normal. ”

Roddy smiled and chatted with him for a few words, and then looked out the window, although there was no superfluous expression on his face, but there was a little excitement and excitement in his eyes that could not be concealed-

All the reason was on the scroll he had just taken out lightly: where Sodrolore couldn't see it, the purple words of [Moloqi's Blessing] were now displayed in front of Roddy...

He didn't expect that the reward given by Rubens would be so "rich"!

Obviously, Roddy underestimated the decisiveness of the Overarch's style of action and the wealth of the "Rosicrucian" - he knew the name "Moloch", the other party was the existence of the "Rosicrucian" who was almost at the peak of his divine attainments, and had broken through the advanced level of 60 in the war of 595, and was one of the few powerful magicians who was recognized by the world as a "demigod".

Within the sect, the highest-ranking pope wears a gold and white robe, followed by a cardinal in red, and "Molochi", although he does not hold an actual position, is the only clergyman who is qualified to wear a gold and red robe.

And at this time, the scroll in Luo Di's hand obviously came from the hands of this peerless powerhouse!
