This decision saved the lives of the knight and his companions, but no one was aware of it yet. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The Info knights are annoyed by their failures, and the mercenaries are ecstatic at the tenfold commission that is about to arrive. Yes, the situation is very good, I don't know why, the reinforcements on both sides have not moved, and they have already pressed the Clippers to the stairs, as long as they go down this staircase, they will attack Uxhall!

"Little ones, for ten times the bounty, kill me!"

"Oh!"

"MD, don't squeeze!"

", the bounty is our 'Zephyr Brigade'!"

"Think beautifully, give me death!"

"It's mine, it's mine, it's all mine!"

There was a slight confusion in the mercenary team at the front, but this only slightly affected the speed of the advance, after all, the enemy was just a mercenary who had no fighting spirit.

Suddenly, a silver light flashed at the staircase, and the mercenaries who rushed to the front with the clipper team who had no time to escape were cut into two pieces in an instant, and rows of blood springs rose to the sky, and the hot red liquid suddenly cooled the greed of the mercenaries, and when they woke up, they found that under the steps, it was no longer a panicked clipper team, but a neat queue, soldiers wearing heavy armor, holding swords in both hands, and the wide knight's giant helmet blocked their faces, no one could see what their expressions were now, but the mercenaries who were just roaring and charging in a hurry, their faces had become pale。

Quiet, for a long time, a trembling voice came from the mercenary team, "Big... The Great Sword Regiment?"

"I'm afraid of hair, there is only one step left in the stairs, rush!"

"Rush, my ten-fold commission!"

"My, my!"

The golden glow of the dinar once again blinded the mercenaries' greedy eyes, but it also boosted their morale. It's just that the head of the Great Sword Regiment's York just pursed his mouth covered by his helmet and only shouted one word, "Kill!"

The silver sword swung again, falling down one after another knife curtains, bringing up a puff of blood flowers, and cutting off heads one by one. The swordsmen of the Great Sword Regiment waved one step at a time, and where the silver light passed, death spread with the dispersion of blood.

It's just that the mercenaries are not willing to give up the wealth they are about to get, and they are still desperate to charge into the city. After being cut off countless heads, they finally found a flaw, and that was the rhythm of the swordsmen's swings. The weight of the big sword, the weight of the armor, this is not a burden that can be ignored casually, which means that it is impossible for the swordsmen to play a set of flowing attacks like wielding a long sword, or a half-sword in their hands, during which there must be a long buffer action, and the mercenaries seized this opportunity. After the swordsmen swung one piece, the mercenaries in the front row not only did not retreat, but took a few steps forward, swinging their weapons at the swordsmen with all their might. It's a pity that the famous Great Sword Regiment could not be defenseless against such an obvious flaw? At the moment when the mercenary's weapon was about to swing, several big swords suddenly stabbed out from the gap in the team, stabbing the mercenaries who thought they had caught the flaw. Some of the mercenaries were lucky enough to dodge the attack, but this dodge wasted precious time, and the big swords in the hands of the swordsmen in the front row had been raised again, ruthlessly slashing at the self-righteous mercenaries.

Blood can stir up the ferocity of the brave and scare the cowardly. Selfish mercenaries clearly fall into the latter category. After several fruitless attacks, the courage aroused by greed could no longer be maintained, and the last of their poor morale finally collapsed as their companions in front of them fell like wheat harvested. The mercenaries in the front began to push and shove, and fled backwards, while the companions in the middle did not want to fall into the ground, and resolutely refused to let go, and the soldiers in the back row did not know why, but still pushed forward, so the whole team was in chaos, with orders, shouts, and howls intertwined, and everyone fought separately and without organization. The mercenaries, who could still shoot a few arrows in the cold, were also coerced by this chaotic team, but the Great Sword Regiment was still steady and unchaotic, and carried out their cruel task step by step.

In the end, the mercenaries' battle line failed to reach the city of Uxhall, and they were pushed back by the ruthless sword curtain of the Great Sword Regiment, little by little, step by step, slowly but resolutely.

As the blood gradually spread, the morale of the mercenary group soon collapsed, the team began to accelerate and retreat, and the Great Sword Regiment finally climbed the city wall. Perhaps because they arrived in the open field, the mercenaries, who had been retreating, inexplicably gained courage, and under the roar of their respective commanders, a new team was gradually formed.

"Steady! They have less than two hundred men! Drown them!"

However, how could the Great Sword Regiment let them do what they wanted, and the swordsmen quickly dispersed, and at the same time rushed towards the line of mercenaries. The heavy sword was swung again, but, unlike the previous style, the screen continued to flash around the swordsman like flowing water, and those who invaded the sword encirclement, whether it was mercenaries or arrows, were all cut off. If you look down from the air, it is as if on the red city wall of Uxhall, shining silver flowers bloom, and bright red raindrops fall, adding a bewitching beauty to this neat flower bush.

In the end, in the bloody sun, the mercenaries who suffered heavy casualties were driven off the city by crying wolf.

In the end, Aisona still did not give the order for "Bloodblade" to attack the city, after all, it was almost dusk, and the soldiers who had been fighting for a day also needed to rest. As for the night attack, the princess looked at the towering walls in the setting sun and the still terrified soldiers in the camp, and finally abandoned the adventure.

In the tent of Her Royal Highness the Princess, the leaders of the various mercenary groups have already taken their seats, but, judging from their sad expressions, everyone's losses are not small.

Ai Sona lifted the curtain of the tent, sat down on the main seat of the conference table, and after scanning the head of the mercenary group present, she spoke, "You have worked hard in today's battle. ”

However, before she could say the next word, a mercenary leader suddenly stood up and said in a tone with a hint of complaint, "Lady Azona, we are all rough people, just say anything." Today's battle is fought, you know what the specific situation is, all the brothers are suffering heavy casualties, and the soldiers under him are also complaining, if you can't give an explanation as soon as possible, it is estimated that no one will want to fight again tomorrow. Tell us what you're going to do. ”

Aisona frowned and asked rhetorically, "Then what do you think should be done?"

"We're mercenaries, and to put it bluntly, we all love money. The regimental commander smiled and made a number, "If you are willing to give more than that, we will kick those lazy ass into the wall." The head of the regiment thought that he had eaten the princess's order.

Asona's men, Roden-Ross and the "Bloodfront" mercenaries are very strong, but they are still not enough compared to the walls of Uxhall and the defenders of the city, who have already suffered a lot of losses. Moreover, even if they were to take the city, Haraus and his men would not sit idly by, and after that, more Swadia soldiers would still flood the place. In short, if she wants to rule the land, Asona must rely on these mercenaries. Since the "fat sheep" has such an urgent request, then we can't complain about slaughtering it.

Seeing the mercenary leader's figures, Asona frowned and replied, "Captain, is your appetite too big? Besides, the contract doesn't say that the price will be increased in this case." ”

"Hey, this time, that time. The head of the regiment put on the face of a profiteer, "You see that we have died so many people, and our morale is so bad, who wants to continue to work without compensation, don't you say?"

"If I don't give it, what will you do?"

All the regimental commanders present smiled knowingly, but only the one who stood up said, "We, of course, we won't be fine, but we will probably see you at the top of the city tomorrow." After a hard day of fighting, I think the defenders of the city should be happy to strengthen their garrison. ”

"You're threatening me?"

"No, no, no, how can we threaten customers?" the head of the regiment put on that disgusting smile again, "I'm just stating a fact. So, how do you decide?"

Aisona frowned, waited for the regiment leader, and said word by word, "I don't like to cooperate with people who threaten me. ”

"Ah, that's a shame. The head of the regiment did not care at all, dusted off the hem of his clothes, bowed to himself as a gentleman, and said to the princess, "Then, Lady Azona, see you tomorrow." With that, he planned to go out. Seeing this, the other heads of the regiment stood up unhurriedly, followed him, and walked out unhurriedly, probably thinking that the princess was just bluffing, and that sooner or later they would be called back.

Just as the early commander was about to step out of the tent, the doorman suddenly blocked the way with a spear in his hand, and the guards in the tent drew their weapons one after another. The regiment commanders were shocked, and they also drew their weapons to aim at Ai Sona, and the face of the one who took the lead suddenly turned cold, and said in a deep voice, "Ms. Ai Sona, what do you mean by this?"

"Nothing interesting, Captain Thatch. It wasn't Aisona who spoke, but Clerk Roden-Roth, who had been standing silently behind Aisona, "Are you going to give up the mission?"

"Hmph, so what?"

"Then you are in breach of clause 4 of the penultimate clause of the contract, according to which you must return the deposit previously paid to you. ”

"Contract?" "Captain Thatch laughed as if he had heard some big joke, "Little girl, it seems that Uncle I want to teach you some principles of life, the contract is just a piece of waste paper." If we don't pay, what can you do?"

Before the words fell, a mercenary hurriedly ran into the tent, and was startled at first when he saw the tense appearance inside, but when he found that the two groups of people had no intention of fighting, he cautiously trotted to his captain's side, whispered a few words, and the captain's face immediately turned pale.

"The men of the 'Bloodfront' have surrounded our camp!"

"What?" The faces of the group leaders also turned white instantly, and the leader turned even more pale, turned his head to look at Aisona, and asked, "What do you want to do?"

"Fulfill the agreement. Aisona, who had been silent for a long time, said, "Pay the deposit, and I'll let you go." However, if you don't want to die, take the path out of Uxhall. ”

"You guys are robbing!"

"As if you weren't. ”

Captain Thatch gritted his teeth and was silent for a long time, but finally reluctantly reached out and took out a piece of paper from his bosom that had been carefully stowed away, and threw it to Ethina. This is an IOU stamped with a Roden-Roth stamp, and with this IOU, you can go to the branch of the Roden-Roth comptoir in any city to collect the corresponding amount, and this very convenient transaction voucher is very popular on the business road. However, not everyone can issue an IOU, and the IOU issued must be recognized by the merchants, first, it must have a large enough asset to ensure that it can afford to pay it back, and second, it must have a good enough reputation to ensure that it will be repaid, and Rawden-Ross happens to meet both of these points.

When the leader Thatch handed over his deposit, the others had no choice but to do so, even if they didn't want to, or they might not even be able to get out of the camp door. After the clerk threw all the IOUs into the campfire in front of them, the doorman put his spear back up. Before leaving, Captain Thatch slammed Asona and roared, "Remember, little bitch! If I see you in a brothel one day, I don't mind spending some copper on you for a few nights." ”

"You're not going to have this chance. Aisona still maintained this cold attitude.

The leaders also cursed and left, and Aisona glanced at the tent, only to see that there was still an old god sitting on the ground at the empty conference table, and he did not leave angrily or angrily as the others, but like a nobleman, his feet were crossed on the table, and he trimmed his nails gracefully.

Her Royal Highness the Princess was a little curious, and stepped forward and asked, "May I ask who you are?"

The regimental commander withdrew his legs and replied, "I am Ellene, the commander of the Arein Brigade, and it is a pleasure to fight alongside you, Your Highness the Princess. ”

Aisona looked at the young leader, but was surprised to find that this man was not ordinary. He looked stocky, had blond shawl hair, and judging by his pale green eyes and the crescent tomahawk on his back, he was a Virgian. At first glance, the armor on his body was dull and lackluster, as if it was normal, but when he looked closely, he realized that it was a delicate Vigia composite armor. However, his master probably thought carefully enough to let the blood and dust obscure the luster of this expensive armor.

Her Royal Highness the Princess couldn't help but glance at him, someone who can wear such good armor must be unusual. So, she asked, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Captain Elleon, may I ask you, why didn't you leave with them?"

Alleyne looked at the backs of the leaders outside the door as they gradually moved away, spat on them, and then said disdainfully, "Because they're all a bunch of fools." ”

"Oh?" said Asona, intrigued, "How?"

"Simple. Alleyne folded his arms and said confidently, "In this situation, the most anxious must be you, and you are still so calm, although it is a little unbelievable, but it means that you must have some tricks to quickly break through the walls of Uxhall, in this case, why do I have to give up this considerable commission?"

"That's true, you're smart. Asona gave a rare smile, "So, won't you tell your companions?"

"Companions, they?" said Alleyne chin in the direction the leaders had left, "Oh, they're not companions, they're partners at best." Besides, I care more about reputation than about commissions. And the epic title of 'Conqueror of Uxhall' naturally has fewer people and is more valuable. So, why should I tell them?"

"That's true," Isona smiled and nodded, "if they had worked together, the outer walls would have been taken down long ago." Okay, Captain Ellene, you go back and have a good rest first, it is estimated that the victory or defeat will be in these two days. ”

"As you wish, Your Highness the Princess. ”
