Chapter 408: Intelligence
Deep in the mountains, in the caves.
From the black crystal, a faint male voice came through.
Young, confident, and even with a touch of arrogance...... But I have to admit that this arrogance does match his current strength.
"Viscount Luo Ming, the Viscount of Meiquan, is the leader of the armed self-protection alliance that includes several barons, can mobilize more than 1,000 troops for expeditions at most, dare to advance in field formations, and is very good at digging fortifications for defense......?
The old man with a childish face watched a young girl copy this information, and although the girl was very serious about it, the old man's face was still full of disdain.
If Luo Ming was here, he would first be surprised by this voice, and then he would show a solemn look because of this information.
Although there is no mention of the level of specific technical parameters, such as the rate of fire and accuracy of the artillery...... But it should not be underestimated.
To do this, he must have deliberately collected Luo Ming's intelligence, and the focus was on his military capabilities, and the people who collected intelligence had bad intentions.
Although the Four Winds Organization has just set up a shelf and is basically not capable of working, it is not easy to do this job of collecting intelligence.
It is impossible to do this by simply collecting rumors - although there are vague and incomplete points, none of them contradict the facts, that is, there is no false information in them.
However, the two people who heard this information showed disdainful expressions.
"Ordinary soldiers, jokes, please tell you something serious. β
The old man said in a very impatient tone, "How many knights does he have? Does he have priests and mages? What is his own strength? What is his faith?"
The man on the other side of the black crystal seemed to be surprised by his tone, and after being stunned for a while, he continued to speak: "Since you think so, then I naturally know everything......
Then, he also gave out the information on this.
β...... So, that's it. May your gloves always be bright. β
Although the last voice sounded like it was about to stop talking, the old man didn't care.
"Hmph, slew the bishop in the siege? He said in a tone that was half fearless, half fearful.
The fear was against the "little poisonous snake" who spoke before, but the attitude towards Luo Ming seemed fearless.
"What should I do?" the girl asked, looking up.
"It doesn't matter, if it's just one person, there are many ways to deal with him. Traps, stratagems...... Our advantage in the shadows is enormous," the haze on his face was swept away, and the old man smiled kindly, and was about to stroke the girl's head.
"Uh......h Don't do that. The girl quickly turned her head away, and pouted, "Grandpa, your gloves haven't been deodorized today, although I don't hate red, but I don't want to have a stink on my head after the experiment." β
As she spoke, she also subconsciously bit her gloves - they were also bright red like the old man's gloves, as if they were soaked in blood, but these gloves exuded an abnormal fragrance, as if they had been deliberately washed with excessive laundry detergent, although there was no such high-end product in this world now.
"Haha, grandpa will definitely pay attention next time. The old man laughed.
It looked like it was just a warm conversation between a pair of granddaughters β except for the smell of the old man's gloves.
Anyone who has been on the battlefield, treated the wounded, or worked in the butcher industry will never mistake this smell.
Blood is mixed with fat, and other strange body tissues and fluids and left for a period of time, giving off a rancid smell.
The sanity of any normal person should tremble when they come into contact with this kind of breath, and even a medical practitioner who often dissects will only smell this kind of smell when he completely messes up the dissection and forgets to dispose of the waste.
But the old man didn't feel the stench at all, and even the girl only frowned slightly when she smelled it.
The two discussed countermeasures for a while, and in the end, they seemed to reach a consensus.
"Then I'll cooperate with Grandpa's plan...... Ah, that's good, grandpa, you just have to move your mouth, but Xiaopei has to work hard. β
The girl who called herself "Xiao Pei" lay on the table and let out a lazy exclamation: "In this case, I will accept two-thirds of the extra pigs, no opinion, right?"
The old man nodded and said, "No problem." But don't play too much, even His Royal Highness the Great Mentor will definitely not like a sacrifice with blurred flesh and blood, and even the viscera can't be distinguished. β
"This is mutually exclusive, and the Great Instructor teaches us to face up to the facts and not to add too much subjective emotion to the judgment of the situation......" The girl fought back without hesitation.
"May the Great Guru guide us and let our gloves shine brightly forever. β
As he spoke, the two of them solemnly recited at the same time.
There was a passionate longing and admiration in that voice, and it sounded almost like it was full of positive energy, and in terms of common sense, it was very inconsistent with those blood-stained gloves, but there was an inexplicable sense of harmony.
At the same timeβ
The power of the black crystal in his hand was exhausted, and it gradually turned gray, and the young man exerted a little force on the seemingly slender arm, so that the crystal was completely wiped out, as if he was pinching a piece of cheese.
After moving his fingers twice, the young man sighed, held up the black tea, and drank it all.
"What a headache, my words...... That old ghost won't be completely unlistened, will he? The Bishop's unlucky ghost has already been planted, and if you put yourself in it, I'll be in a quandary. β
Obviously, the black tea had just been brewed, and it was a thick churning mist, and when it was splashed on a person's face, it could directly let the other party heal it...... But he drank it all in one gulp, without any remark.
Feeling a current of heat begin to spread from his chest, he narrowed his eyes.
"Luo Ming...... Although I can't hope that old man will fail for my purposes, personally, I want to see you work miracles again, so I guess it confirms one of my conjectures. β
Speaking in a slightly troubled tone, the young man clenched his fists.
"But if I can't use it all the time, I'll see each other one day...... Good luck. β
