"Clermont! Didn't we say that we would work together to revitalize the rebels and work together against the conservatives! What do you mean by this attitude!" Mary stood up and argued with Clermont in front of Field, an outsider. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Clermont, who had round eyes, tapped his head and sighed, "It's because I plan to work with you leaders who have lost their leader, that I have to remind you once again how untrustworthy mercenaries are, especially this guy, he's a sworn enemy of our rebels... If it weren't for the fact that he still had a use, I'd have thrown him to the villagers here right now and let them torture this guy to death!"
Mary exclaimed, "We are rebels, not butchers! If you really train the villagers in this way, what difference is it with these mercenaries with the blood of innocent civilians on their hands!?"
Feld didn't want to refute or argue with these people, but he still felt helpless in his heart about what Mary and Clermont had said, and he also felt sad about the prejudice on both sides.
Octavia stood between the two, "Okay, Mary, you should know who rescued you from the conservatives, lack of strength is the greatest incompetence, whether it is the new faction or the leader faction, it is impossible to overthrow the brutal rule of the principality by lip service, if you can really make the leader faction regroup, come and shout your reason with us!"
Lazrov grabbed Mary, who was still trying to argue, but Mary still didn't shut up, "I'm going to ask him where the leader of Lyon is! Lord Lyon is our common leader! Why don't you at all..."
Clermont interrupted her, "The Rebels are no longer the original Rebels, only the Leaders will think that Leon is the leader of the Rebels, that the old peasant who has nothing is your leader, and besides, most of the people sent by your Leader have fled to the Duchy of Dramain, you should know this better than me." ”
Clermont's words showed no mercy, and this time even Lazrov couldn't help but want to refute the other party. They began to quarrel loudly in front of Fidd, as if Fide did not exist at all, and directly spread out the factional disputes within the rebel army in front of them. Feld learned from the content of their quarrel, such as the fact that the new faction still has some prestigious leaders, and the leader faction is leaderless, and the leader of the Principality of Mageni is looking for Leon's whereabouts, for them, Leon is their spiritual leader.
"Clermont, the village chief here has something to look for you. A rebel with a longbow and one eye knocked on the door.
Clermont glared at Mary, then he turned and said, "This mercenary continues to be under the supervision of Octavia, if you two can't get any useful information from him, then find a way to find your leader from other sources, otherwise the people of your leader faction will be of no use to us new factions." Clermont's cold words made Octavia a little uncomfortable, and the latter immediately told Clermont to leave the place and go about the affairs of the village.
Lazrov also pulled Mary, who was still angry, away after Clermont left, and it was time for the two rebel cadres who had lost their subordinates and leaders to start thinking about the direction of the future, after all, it was impossible to ask a wooden-faced mercenary with the same question.
Only Octavia was left in the cabin, and the female rebel who gave people a cold feeling when she didn't speak whispered to Fidel: "Although you are a mercenary, according to our investigation of you, you are different from ordinary mercenaries, why is that?"
When Fei De heard the other party's question, he also heard his stomach screaming, "What is an ordinary mercenary." Fidel asked rhetorically.
"Ordinary mercenaries can become villains and robbers when they are not on mercenary missions, they are always for money, and nothing is more important than their own interests," Octavia picked up some dry twigs and threw them into the furnace, and the whole wooden house became dry. The mercenary union is the highest form of ordinary mercenaries, they no longer only covet the money in other people's wallets, they also treat the entire continent as a pigsty, each mercenary group occupies one side, and then takes the disputes there into their own hands, and treats those who cause disputes and are willing to pay as animals, and if necessary, they will also use their own methods to create disputes. ”
Fei De was deeply touched by the words of this female rebel, and he had long noticed the nature of the mercenary union. This union of nine mercenary groups may not have any great ideals, but they still have a lot of ideas about the current situation on the mainland. These mercenaries are no longer the same as ordinary mercenary groups, their goal is to make the strife and division of the continent never stop, if a country ends the chaos between the countries, then the swords in the hands of these mercenaries can only be used to plow land and cut trees, and those endless commissions will lose their source. These powerful mercenary groups just keep the entire continent in some balance, some kind of chaotic order, so that they can earn gold coins that can never be spent.
"If according to you, the potato mercenary group is indeed not an ordinary mercenary group. ”
Octavia snorted softly, "It's true that this is not an ordinary mercenary group, and an ordinary mercenary group will not be involved in the power struggle of the Papal States, nor will it help a new regime that has already fallen into the city. Even in the Principality of Mageni, you are the only mercenary group that has repeatedly troubled our rebels. ”
"What about the Rain Mercenary Regiment?"
"That mercenary group has nothing to do with us, their leader is a weirdo who has been staying in the capital, like a watchdog for the capital's nobility. ”
Fidel noticed that while he was chatting with Octavia, two imps were hiding in the corner of the window of the cabin, eavesdropping on his conversation with the rebel cadres. Feder suddenly thought of a possible way to get himself out!
"I've gotten along with Leon and some of the other members of your rebels, and each of them has experienced something special before becoming a member of the rebels, and a cadre like you must have suffered some changes, right?" Although Fed wanted to start with the female rebel in front of him, his clumsy language and organization skills really couldn't make people suspicious, and after saying this, Fed already felt that something was wrong.
Unexpectedly, the fierce female rebel didn't suspect the reason for Fidel's proximity at all, she was silent for a while, and then glanced at Fidel, "You are the first person to know about my past," Fide was stunned, "Everyone who joins the rebel army has their own reasons, and my reason is very simple, that is, to prove myself, I don't have to be weak in those regular armies wearing thick armor." Since he hadn't been recognized, Fidel immediately chose to listen quietly to Octavia's past.
Octavia was born into a family of lumberjacks, her mother was a weaver, and her father was the captain of a group of lumberjacks. She has been working with the group of lumberjacks since she was a child, so her less muscular arms are able to exert a lot of power, which has something to do with the fact that she has been wielding heavy objects since she was a child. Later, Octavia noticed that the axes that cut trees were not efficient at all, so she sharpened some of her own short knives, which were difficult to curl or crumble, and it worked wonders to cut trees, especially since the blades were very close to her arms, so that she could use the full power of her arms.
But a good lumberjack was not what Octavia's father expected of her, who had always wanted to give birth to a son and then enlist him in the regular army, so that he could escape the poverty of the workers and peasants.
Octavia was even asked by her father to dress up as a man in an attempt to blend in with the regular army selection. As a result, Octavia and her father were punished. Since then, Octavia has left her parents and lived on her own. Later, because a friend who joined the rebel army invited her, she also joined the rebel organization with few options, and constantly practiced her fighting skills in the life of the rebel army.
Her amazing talent in martial arts made this young and beautiful female rebel soon become a rebel leader, and her main job was to hunt down and kill former rebel members who defected to the rebel organization, and this division of labor also made her stronger.
"The regular army is a coward who hides behind armor, and I, I'm different," said Octavia, who had no armor on him, said lightly, "I'm a natural warrior and can pierce the hardest armor, I'm not a lumberjack or a peasant, and it only really makes sense to defeat stronger enemies." ”
Fei De looked at the pride in the other party's eyes, and it seemed that he was right to choose to start with this female rebel cadre first.
"In other words, you have not been oppressed by the ruling class?"
Octavia shook her head, "There is no need to question that the rule of the Duchy of Mageni is so brutal that everyone knows the need to overthrow their regime except for those who have no eyes and cannot see clearly. As a mercenary, it is understandable that you are working for the sake of money, although we rebels hate people like you, but you are fundamentally different from those rulers, and most of your subordinates are also from civilian backgrounds. ”
Octavia said that she admired Feide's strength, even if Feide was an enemy opponent, he was also a rare fighter. She had a good relationship with Thomas, another rebel cadre, but she didn't expect Thomas to die at the hands of Fed. Octavia hated Feld very much at the time, but it wasn't until later that Octavia realized that a weak man had no right to hate a strong man, and Thomas's death was that he was not strong enough.
"Even if you're using an enchanted weapon, I can defeat you again with my own twin knives. Octavia smiled confidently at the fire.
Really, Fidel thought to himself. Looking at this extremely competitive female rebel, Fei De already understood the weakness of the other party.
