Chapter 2: Potter's Recommendations

Potter's mood began to go sour.

He is thirty-six years old this year, and he has been in this business for more than ten years.

From an ordinary cavalryman to a seasoned falcon, Potter has experienced six major battles under Mina's command. It encompasses almost every major battle that the Black Lightning Knights have experienced since their establishment.

Scouting is a high-risk job.

Potter lost count of the number of people around him. But fortunately, he survived.

Years of experience have made Potter the best falcon in the Black Lightning Knights' scout team, and the ruthless man everyone is most reluctant to provoke.

There was once a glorious knight who personally admitted that in a head-to-head match, Potter, who only had the strength of a fair four-star, was definitely not his opponent. However, wandering through the jungle and attacking, ten of them were no match for Potter.

"In the jungle, Potter is a ghost. He has at least a thousand ways to kill you. And you, you won't even have a chance to find him desperately. The Knight of Glory said.

Many people feel that the words of this glorious knight are inevitably exaggerated.

But only those who really know Potter know that this sentence doesn't even have a little water.

In this ten years of scouting career, Potter has encountered countless falcon masters. But every time, he was the winner. To date, more than a hundred scouts have died at his hands.

It's definitely a terrifying number.

The strangulation between scouts and scouts is far more brutal, bloody, and intriguing than the knights' fights. Double-cross each other.

Able to kill hundreds of scouts, even among the top falcons of the Philip Empire, Potter can occupy a line. And in the Black Lightning Knights, he is the trump card of aces!

This time, the ten scouts sent by Tielun were led by Potter.

In the previous battle, he and his Philip scouts completely suppressed the elven hunters who were obviously still novices. Forced out of the mountains.

But now, these elven rangers are back.

Moreover, in order to make up for the shortcomings under their combat effectiveness. This time. They also brought back a group of Solan Knights.

This gave Potter a bit of a headache.

If he only faced the elves alone, or those knights alone, Potter was not afraid.

The knights don't talk about it, they can only charge on horseback, and it is a disaster for them to go into the jungle. Whether it's taking advantage of traps. Or is the water poisoned. Or set up an ambush and sneak attack. Potter had enough to wipe them out.

Elves are known as natural hunters, but Potter doesn't find them difficult to deal with.

In his kill list. There are more than ten elven rangers. Three of them are still elven guards who have completed the transformation of butterflies.

Potter knows where his strengths lie.

Compared to the battle-hardened human scouts, those arrogant elves seemed too naΓ―ve and innocent. Their pride in speed and dexterity is worthless in the face of ruthlessness and cunning.

The last time he killed an Elven Hunter, Potter used an arrow soaked in the juice of a highly poisonous plant. And the last time, he pretended to be seriously injured and collapsed by the waterhole. When the innocent elf girl approached, she suddenly burst out and restrained her.

After that, he enjoyed three full days of ecstasy before he tortured and killed him.

However, when these elven scouts and knights are combined, they become very difficult to deal with.

Those elven hunters, centered on the Solan knights, formed a circle with a radius of no more than two hundred meters. As the Solan Knight marched, the circle continued to move north.

On several occasions, Potter's scouts tried to attack the elven rangers on the periphery.

However, as soon as they approached, the elves were like frightened rabbits, and they quickly approached the Solan Knight in the center. In such a situation, the Philip scouts had no chance at all.

They didn't want to go head-to-head with nineteen Solan Knights.

To be honest, this tactic of the Solan people is a very stupid method. They don't move fast, and are always passive to attack and sneak attack. If the opponent's strength and combat effectiveness are stronger, a few sneak attacks can break up their defenses, and then a strong attack can leave them all in this dense forest.

However, Potter only had ten scouts in his hands. The stupid method of the Solan people made him feel like a dog biting a hedgehog and couldn't get his mouth out.

Standing on a small hill, Potter carefully observed the Philip Scouts marching down the winding mountain path below.

Nineteen knights in black armor walked slowly.

They are clearly not well adapted to the rough mountain roads. The movements are heavy and stiff. The weeds and thorns on the side of the road bothered them. The long sword in his hand slashed indiscriminately, and after a few steps, his feet would slip.

However, a closer look reveals that the strength of these knights is not weak.

At the slightest alarm, they would stop and quickly form three defensive formations that echoed each other.

Each of them has the strength of a just knight. When they unleash the Ring, the ruggedness of the mountain road and the slippery mud will greatly reduce the effect on them.

A radius of fifty meters is their control area.

Although it is impossible for them to catch up with their scouts once they exceed this range, no one will want to bump into them and give it a try.

And on the periphery of the Solan Knights, there are at least close to thirty elven hunters.

These slender and agile elves like cheetahs are constantly moving at high speed, and their figures loom in the woods.

Suddenly they leapt up into the treetops, and then they burrow into the grass. Leap like flying, like walking on the ground. Their natural racial talent allowed them to form an impenetrable warning circle on the periphery of the Solan Knights. Not to mention the scouts under his command, even if it was himself, it was impossible to break through their blockade and approach those Solan knights in the center.

Seeing that the other party was getting closer and closer to him, the elven hunters on the periphery had already appeared within a hundred meters. Potter could only leave the hill in a frustrated manner, retreating further into the dense forest.

His task is to cover up the information and hide the whereabouts of the Tielun Brigade.

But if the Solan people just pushed all the way over, could it be that they were just watching with their hands and feet?

You must know that because the mountain road is rugged and difficult, the brigade led by Tie Lun did not go far. It will take more time for them to disappear from the sight of the Solans completely.

If they were allowed to push them so flat, they would probably find Tie Lun.

That would be a dereliction of duty on the part of the scout captain!

With a gloomy face, he walked under a magic eucalyptus tree. Potter paused. Two Philip scouts. Silently dodged out of the bushes and came to him.

"What do we do now, Lord Potter?" asked a tall scout.

"The few traps we just laid in front of us have been torn down by the Elven Hunters. The other had cold eyes like snakes. Scout with a long scar on his face. "It's hard to hide from the elves in this regard. ”

Potter frowned and asked, "What about the others?"

"Follow your instructions. They are scattered all around. However, everyone can only follow, and there is no way to get close," the Scar scout said, "Besides, the chick is hiding in the hollow of the tree, and it is already behind the Solans. I thought I could flank back and forth and catch two elves. Unexpectedly, more than a dozen knights came, and the sick chicken couldn't find a chance to do it. ”

"What about the Solan army?" Potter asked.

"It's been confirmed, except for these nineteen Solan knights here, the rest of the Solan army has entered the Warm Water Lake Castle," the tall scout snorted contemptuously, "My lord, I'm afraid you didn't expect that these guys actually went to the Double-Eye Well before, and they were so tired that they were choked." Now I went to the Warm Lake Castle to rest. ”

"I just looked at the coat of arms, among those Solan knights, ten of them are the chief knights of the Muni City Guard, and the other nine trainee knights are all young, if I guess correctly, they have the strength of a fair knight, and the swallowtail flag of the trainee knight is still tied to the cavalry gun, these people must be the students of the three major training camps. Potter said with a blank face.

The two scouts nodded, and the tall knight said, "The troops who entered the Warm Lake Castle also have some hairy boys, and there are several chicks among them. More than a hundred other cavalrymen, men of the XII Legion. ”

"The Twelve?" said Potter, pacing back and forth, "Then they must have come from Medin City!"

The more he thought about it, the more confident he became, and he said to himself: "I don't know how they guessed that we were going to attack the fjord, but they obviously didn't have time to stop us from taking the fjord. And in a hurry, they will not have many troops. If there were enough troops, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to compete with us in this way. ”

"On the other hand, if something really happened to the two lords, Nazi and Buzi, and it was indeed this army that attacked them, then their bodies must be very expensive and they will not be able to continue fighting. That said....... Potter high-fived his two men.

The tall scout and the scar scout said in unison, "We don't need to be afraid of them at all!"

Thinking of this, a sinister smile appeared on the faces of all three of them.

Because of the disappearance of the two teams of Naqi and Buzz, coupled with the disappearance of the griffin knight who explored Firefox Village and the griffon knight who was originally in charge of the Western Front, it made the night smell a trace of danger.

Under his order, Tie Lun's department, which had already arrived at the Warm Water Lake Castle, retreated in panic without even taking a picture of the other party's face.

Not to mention Tie Lun, who has always been fierce, even the knights in the team are also very uncomfortable.

And according to the current intelligence, no matter how powerful the mysterious Solan army is, they are now resting in the Warm Lake Castle. Since there were no pursuers behind him, he didn't have to work so hard to move north from the Bologni mines.

You know, among the roads in the northern mountains, the Bologni mine is the most rugged and difficult. Especially for knights who are only used to riding horses, it is simply a torture.

If there were no pursuers behind them, they would not need to hide and choose a different path that would be easier to travel through. It's so much easier, it's also much faster!

What's more, so far, whether it is Juye or Tie Lun, the judgment of the situation is more just the intuition of a general and the speculation of some signs.

And what happened to the two teams of Naqi and Buzz, what did the Solan troops behind them, and why genius generals like Naqi and Buz were also planted in their hands, it is all a mystery!

If you want to solve this mystery, the key is on this knight team behind you!

Don't look at Potter and his scouts who can't deal with these nineteen knights now, but if he reports the information to Tie Lun, Tie Lun can lead the army back and strike a blow!

Just catch these elven rangers and Solan knights, and they have ten thousand ways to pry each other's mouths open.

Only by understanding the details of the opponent can you advance and retreat freely.

This point, both for the night and for Tie Lun, is very important.

"Where's the civet?" said Potter to the tall scout.

The tall scout carefully removed a leather pouch from his body, opened it, and pulled out a brownish, palm-sized monster from it, and handed it to Potter.

The civet is a more difficult animal to capture and domesticate than the falcon. It is extremely fast and can climb mountains and mountains, climb trees and rivers. Because of its bitter flesh and a gland that secretes hallucinogenic sweat, the civet has few natural predators.

No animal wants to swallow this in its stomach, and that would make them worse than death.

And more importantly, the civet has a magical gift.

It is unusually sensitive to one type of incense stone. As long as it is the residue of the smell of incense stone, even after a day or two, or even after the rain, it can be smelled. And through this smell, within a radius of 20 kilometers, the bearer of the incense stone can be accurately found. Therefore, this second-order small demonic beast was trained by humans to be a messenger in the mountains and forests to convey information over a short distance.

Potter took out a piece of letterhead, wrote down what he knew and his judgment, stuffed it into a small bamboo tube, sealed it, and tied it to the civet dog. Got it out.

I saw the civet raise its nose on the ground and sniff it, and the yellow shadow flashed, and it had disappeared into the grass to the north.

"Alright," the corners of Potter's mouth curled into a sinister smile, and he turned his head to look south, and said coldly, "Now let's follow them, make a show along the way, and harass them." Wait until Lord Tielun comes back, and then serve them in a pot!"

After speaking, he took out the pigeon whistle, blew a note quickly, and immediately made a gesture to his two subordinates. The three of them scattered and disappeared into the vast mountains and forests.

However, none of them noticed that in the shadows of the dense forest thirty meters away from them, a young man was quietly watching them. In his ears, he wore an earbud that was exactly the same as theirs...... (To be continued......)
