When Reilly walked into the conference room, Arantir and Ryunosuke Woo were already waiting. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
In addition to them, there was a skeletal man in the conference room, his name was Modo, the second Ntagri powerhouse summoned by Reilly.
Mordo was a natural commander, and of all the people Reilly had ever met, only Cassius could match him.
"Tell us about the current situation. Reilly said as he looked at Arrantiel.
The necromancer nodded and said, "We have taken control of three thousand square kilometers of land and transformed it into a land of death, and recently new undead have begun to appear on this land. ”
Reilly smiled and said, "Looks like we're halfway there. ”
"The next thing to do is to drive the Norlanders and Daxoldas out of the Land of Twilight and let the glory of Asha shine across the plane. Arrantiel said with a serious face.
"However, we don't have the strength to take any of the Legion Fortresses right now. Modo pointed to the map on the table and said.
There are a total of twelve cities on this map, and Dia is in the middle of the four legion fortresses in Norland and the seven legion fortresses in Daxoldas, and can be attacked at any time, as well as anyone else.
"We don't necessarily have to defeat these two main planes outright. Reilly touched his chin and said, "For the Norlanders and Daxoldas, the Lands of Dusk have no value in themselves, and their purpose is to consume each other's war potential through the Peerless Battlefield. ”
"In that case, we can ally with one of them and work together to defeat the other. "Modo keenly grasps the crux of the matter.
"Now is not the time. Reilly shook his head and said, "Protect your existing territory and don't act rashly. When I return to the Land of Dusk, I will attack the Daxodas. ”
"Understood. Everyone nodded.
————————————————————
On this day, a long convoy was heading on the Eternal Plateau, and its destination was the Miracle Peak in the distance.
There were only a dozen trucks in the convoy, but there were more than twenty troop carriers accompanying it, which meant that the convoy was not only the light cavalry that the convoy usually equipped, but a mixed lineup of infantry and cavalry.
In the center of the convoy were two much more ornate light carriages, with passengers of distinct status, with the insignia of the Mensa family inlaid on their bodies, and a ring of decorations beside them, each with different ornaments. Those who are familiar with the heraldry of the nobility can tell at a glance that there is an archmage and a sanctuary sitting in the two carriages.
With thousands of elite warriors dispatched and two strong men in charge, the real cargo escorted by this convoy is about to come out: sacrifices!
Of course, the more than a dozen wagons could not have been filled with all sacrifices. In fact, this is a regular convoy from Mensa Territory, replenishing the Mensa family's floating islands and various industries on Faust, as well as transporting the harvest of the various private planes to Faust.
One of the most important benefits of the plane is sacrifices, followed by all kinds of rare resources, although there are some large-scale trading houses in other parts of the Holy Alliance, but Faust has the most complete categories, the highest level, and the most convenient trading, and for the floating island giants, Faust is equivalent to their common home field, these people not only want to maintain the prosperity of the miracle city, but also declare their power.
The size and frequency of the fleet is one of the important indicators of the strength of the giants, with the Mensa family having a convoy arriving in Faust every quarter, while the big giants like the Orleans family and the Wellingborough family have a convoy arriving in Faust every month, and the scale is much larger than Mensa's.
Of course, there are also alternatives among the wealthy families, and in the three years after Gordon entered the floating island, only two cargo teams arrived, and this matter was also rumored to be a momentary conversation.
The convoy soon approached the peak of miracles, and in the distance, a team of brightly clad royal knights could be seen instigating their horses under their crotches and swaying unhurriedly.
After the end of the First World War, the defenses of the Holy League's major places were strengthened, and all convoys entering Faust were inspected for identification. However, in the eyes of the Mensa family, who are members of the floating island giants, this is just a formality.
At this time, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and faint laughter, and where the smoke and dust rose, a group of young men and women rode horses, they chased and frolicked, showing their youthful vitality.
The young men are trying their best to show off their riding skills and martial arts, while the girls are as brilliant as mountain flowers.
The group of young men walked diagonally towards the convoy, and according to the trajectory and speed of their travel, they would pass diagonally not far in front of the convoy, but in doing so, it would definitely affect the convoy's progress.
A knight at the front of the convoy shouted, "This is the Mensa family's convoy, you should quickly change the route." ”
The knight's shouts were thunderous and rumbling, and the mounts of the boys and girls were frightened, and one by one rose to his feet, and almost threw the rider on his back.
At this moment, the aristocratic young people all exploded, and their favorite female companions were in front of them, and these young and vigorous men could not lose face no matter what.
Although this knight belongs to the Mensa family, his armor style is only the leader of the knight squad, that is, the Mensa family has always been arrogant and domineering, so that a knight who may not even be a formal officer in the army sequence is so arrogant.
This style of arrogance and arrogance, once there is, then the lower the level, the more obvious it is, if the Duke of Mensa has three points of arrogance, then when it comes to the bottom of the small boss, it becomes very arrogant. Of course, the knights of the Mensa family are all well-trained, and they are not arrogant even with long eyes.
At a glance, the clothes of this group of young men and women are just ordinary goods, although some of them can see the family crest, but none of them are prominent enough to be remembered, such a little nobleman, usually when he sees Mensa, even if it is a cargo team, should be polite to three points, and there will never be a situation of contention.
Today, however, the young men did not seem to intend to back down, and one of the young nobles exclaimed, "Is Mensa so remarkable, even a knight dares to speak like that! Why do you want us to give way, is the Eternal Plateau the domain of the Mensa family?"
As soon as someone started, the boys' tempers were violent, and immediately some people echoed and rebuked Mensa for his rudeness, and the group of young men and women gathered together, just blocking the way of the caravan to the peak of legend.
The knight's face turned blue with anger, and he shouted angrily: "Do you dare to stop Mensa's regular convoy, don't you know who is sitting in the carriage behind?"
I don't know who said in a loud voice: "I don't care who you sit on, no matter how powerful you are, it's not even a floating island that will be bombarded." ”
Speaking of which, we have to mention Richard.
Some time ago, Richard made the floating island of the Akmund family jump to the sixth layer through sacrifice, squeezing down the No. 6-6 floating island that originally belonged to the Joseph family, and even the No. 7-1 floating island with the Mensa family was also scolded.
But little talk has been about it lately, and the attention of the nobles has been turned to the stormy twilight land.
Philip the Great marched into the Land of the Rising Sun, slashing the brain-eater Maranos and washing away decades of humiliation from the Holy Alliance, and then fought a decisive battle with two super-powerhouses of Daxoldas, not only forcing them back, but also killing a legend who helped in the war.
Next, the nobles need to pay attention to the bloody battle in the capital where the sun never sets. Of course, they don't pay attention to the fighters below the legend, at most they look at the summary numbers on the first page of the battle report. Only the family that sent the strong to participate in the war at the last moment would care about the heavy content behind the battle report.
The nobles were most concerned about the undead mage who had risen to prominence, and the army of the undead that consisted entirely of the Sanctuary.
With so many topics to focus on, who cares about the Mensa family's ugly thing?
And today, these aristocratic youths have mercilessly uncovered the scars of the Mensa family.
