Chapter 622: Infiltration

While Da Da Duck was passing the secret message in the air, Roddy, dressed in a simple gray robe, was sitting in front of the campfire in the camp, listening to the heroes of all walks of life around him brag. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"His sword is heavy, and my wrist is numb when I block it the second time, but this guy has no other advantage than great strength, and I step like this-hey! I made that guy lose his center of gravity on the spot, and I opened the scoop with an axe! ”

"Huh-"

"Tut-tut..."

An exclamation sounded, making the big man who told his story full of pride.

After two days of following Mirno's forces, Roddy's "Holy Army" was now at the edge of Bergen's territory - following the route planned by the "Pit Viper Cross", they would then make a slight detour to the north before attacking from the northeast corner of Ivota.

This was Mirno's line of attack on the city, saying that it would be so that he could collect enough food and take Evta's defenders by surprise. Of course, Roddy scoffed at this, because the day after he joined the team as a "down-and-out nobleman", he eavesdropped on the conversations of several key figures at night, and judged that the real target of the "Viper Cross" was actually the "Viper Kiss" scepter of the "Temple"!

At present, the "Pit Viper Cross" method is relatively hidden, and it has never said any offensive goals to the outside world, and even when recruiting this so-called "Holy Cult Army", it said that it was to attack Evta and be loyal to the Karen royal family.

However, in fact, the operation of the "Pit Viper Cross" was led by three strong men at the level of elders, each of whom was in charge of a troop, and each troop was restrained and managed by three to five bishops -- there were about 2,000 soldiers in the "Pit Viper Cross" banner, which belonged to the "loyal sect armed forces" displayed on the surface. At the same time, Roddy also learned from their conversation that there was an elite army hidden in the shadows... However, he did not know how many people were in this so-called "elite".

The remaining 7,000 people are all these "Holy Cult Army" where Luo Di is currently located. This force is composed entirely of hired knights and knights, and there are all kinds of people from all three sects and nine ranks. Although they were knights recruited by the "Viper Cross", Roddy found that when these bishops declared themselves to be "soldiers of the Holy Church" who fought for His Majesty Charles II.

The purpose of this propaganda is very simple, that is, to cover up the fact that the "Pit Viper Cross" is the main body of this team. This may sound naïve, but it is actually very effective in this age of underdeveloped communications—where will the knights who have been absorbed care of what the bishops say? They don't care who they are loyal to at all, only commissions.

During the two days of the march, no one came to proclaim the doctrine or preach the Scriptures, so that no one in this group thought that they were fighting for the "pit viper cross", and in their speech, everyone believed that their destination was Evta, and did not think of any other possibility at all.

"Hey, your name... Raphael, right? Come up and try your hand! Looking at you like that, you probably haven't been on the battlefield, so don't pee your pants when you really fight! ”

In this era, there is a shortage of entertainment programs, and a group of fiery mercenaries are naturally indispensable to all kinds of competitions. Luo Di has been low-key like a passerby for the past few days, but he really can't be out of contact with anyone, so at this moment, he can't avoid being pulled out by a few people in the camp to compete.

"Knight Zack, I can't compare to you, I'm okay with Parff."

Luo Di used a pseudonym, and waved his hand with some fear in his eyes at this time - this kind of praise naturally made the big man named Zach proud, but he didn't intend to let go of Luo Di, his big hand grabbed his arm and dragged it up: "Come, compare and compare, three moves, point to the end." ”

"I... Good. ”

Timidly and hesitantly agreeing, Roddy took out a short sword that had been taken from someone else, and made a clumsy gesture.

No one uses wooden swords here, as they would be joked as "children's toys". And after Roddy pretended to use too much force, he found that Zach did have two hits, and he easily blocked the two strong attacks and sank vigorously, so that Roddy couldn't even counterattack and was slapped away by the long sword in his hand-

"If you don't fight, you won't fight, Zack Knight, as soon as you come over like a mountain, I can't hide..."

Roddy waved his hand and begged for mercy, looking weak.

"Hahaha, you kid is too weak, if you go to the battlefield, it's better to pick up the omissions later."

"I think so too, I really don't think anyone can cut it..."

There was a burst of laughter around the campfire, and Roddy was almost at the bottom of their camp. And Zack, because of his tall stature and strong strength, has faintly become a leader-like figure. Similar situations have occurred in various camps, where there are people, there must be high and low, and Roddy has obviously been regarded as a marginal figure with little force value in the entire "Holy Cult Army".

Or rather... Cannon fodder.

After the competition, Roddy was a little embarrassed, and when he returned to sit down by the campfire, several knights next to him saw that his strength was so poor, and they spoke with a little contempt. In this regard, Luo Di still greeted him with a smile and looked submissive. But while talking and laughing, there was a little crying and movement in the distance, Luo Di raised his eyebrows, pretended not to understand and grabbed the hilt of the sword, and said nervously: "What's the matter?" Is it an enemy attack? ”

"Enemy attack? Hahaha..."

The knights around laughed, and Zach poured a sip of ale and sneered: "Looking at you like this, you are probably not even twenty years old, and it is normal to not understand." Hey, you kid hasn't been a woman yet, have you? If you really want to experience it, let's go to the village tomorrow to fish for a few and try them? ”

Where did Roddy not know what that sound was... Mirno's troops and the cultist army of the "Viper Cross" on the surface are strictly disciplined, but where is the group of guys of the "Holy Cult Army" to speak of? There are many people who kill, burn, and plunder in order to eat for a while.

The voices in the distance were simply the struggles of women who were bullied after the village was plundered by knights - no one here talked about the rules of knighthood, no one on top of them, and naturally they were happy to "enjoy" below. This situation does not only appear in miscellaneous armies, in fact, most armies will have similar situations after going out to fight, and no matter who the leader is, they basically turn a blind eye.

Even in the so-called "civilized era" in which Roddy once lived, there were still records of armies causing trouble, not to mention the dark and primitive kingdom of Karen at the moment.

Zach Knight is very good at talking, and from the current topic, he quickly talked about the woman he had been with, and the meat joke naturally attracted a group of audiences. Roddy was indifferent in his heart, but his face showed a look of hunger and curiosity, and he swallowed and spat from time to time, which made everyone laugh at his performance...

This is completely a junior brother who has never even been on the battlefield, if you talk about combat effectiveness, I am afraid that a few strong servants will be stronger than him.

Obviously, no one would have thought that this immature young man in front of him would have any connection with Evta.

And at this time, the depressed Count of Mirno will not know... His biggest enemy was no more than 800 meters away from him in a straight line. (To be continued.) )
