On the summit of an unnamed mountain, Viscount Emmett and the other two Guard Battalion commanders gathered to discuss the matter of informing the Wizard Scouting Regiment.

After leaving the town of Umezu, the knights of the guard battalion did not return to the city of Wozhmara, but plunged head-on into the jungle, walking west along the river valley for about half a day, completely throwing away the hellhounds of Umezu town, the mountains and forests here are not the soldiers of the hell dogs, and the farther away from the city of Worimara, even if there are scattered hellhounds in the surrounding area, the hellhounds encountered are less and less.

Along the way, you will also see a small village that has been slaughtered by the Hellhounds, and the entire village has been burned to the ground by the lava fire.

Due to the abundant materials carried in this operation, Viscount Emmett thought that the guard battalion could also contain the hellhounds here outside the town of Umezu and prevent the hellhounds in the town and the demon sons who grew up from taking the opportunity to migrate and hide, so they stationed in the middle of the unnamed peak less than 20 kilometers away from the town of Umezu, and sent more than 30 scout teams led by the knights to closely observe the movements of the hellhounds in the town of Umezu.

As three brilliant magic flares burst out in the dusk sky, they bloomed in brilliant colors.

The Earl of Collins of the Guard Battalion of Collis City of Pulis walked in front of Viscount Emmett, the Collins family is also a big nobleman in Pleos City, Earl of Collins' father, the Marquis of Collins Sr., served as an archon in Pleos City for twenty years, and after retiring from the position of consul, although the Collins family is not as glorious as in the past, the members of the Collins family are deeply rooted in various departments of Pleas City, far from being comparable to the Emmett family in Highlandsa City.

And Emmett is only a second-class viscount, two levels behind the Earl of Collins in the rank of lord.

Constantinople Commander Viscount Owen is one of the most prominent young members of the younger generation of the Owen family, the Owen family has ruled Constantinople for nearly two hundred years, and all departments of Constance have been controlled by the Owen family, although Viscount Owen is on the same level as Viscount Emmett in the lord rank, but the future development will be smooth.

It is said that no matter what the reconnaissance mission is, Viscount Emmett will not be able to stand in the position of the real commander, but it is precisely the city of Highlandsa that has completed the reconnaissance mission excellently, so the two commanders have been able to push Viscount Emmett to the position of the first commander despite public opinion.

Originally, after the mission was completed, according to the idea of the Earl of Collins, the three guard battalions would return to Vozhmara along the road they had traveled before, which would be the safest.

But the two young commanders Emmett and Owen have different opinions, Viscount Owen of Constantinople is more radical, he thinks that the three guard battalions should be combined to attack the town of Umezu immediately, and wipe out the sons of demons in the town in their infancy, but at the moment, these 1,500 knights, even if they are stuck in the valley mouth, resisting the attack of the hellhounds in Umezu town are a little unbearable, so the strategy of attacking Umezu town is obviously too aggressive.

In the end, it was Viscount Emmett who proposed that the knights of the guard battalion retreat to the outskirts of Umezu Town, and sent a large number of scout teams to closely reconnoiter around Umezu Town to prevent the Demon Sons of Umezu Town from secretly transferring, and also try to avoid fighting with Hellhounds, and maintain their combat strength and wait for Warzhmara City to send a Constructed Knights to clear out the Hellhounds in Umezu Town.

……

The Earl of Collins stood on a rock, looking at the rolling hills in the distance and the setting sun that was about to sink into the ridges, his gray beard a little messy by the spring and summer winds of the maca plane, and his eyes fell on the glade where the Pleos Guard Battalion was stationed, which had so far suffered the heaviest casualties of the three guard battalions.

The Earl of Collins fought at least hundreds of wars, large and small, in his lifetime.

Five years ago, the priests and battle priests of the Statue of Liberty Temple had not been withdrawn from the Grimm Empire, at that time, each war group would have a priest and two battle priests who were responsible for healing, and the knights at that time were not afraid of being injured at all, and the knights on the battlefield were brave and forward, but when hundreds of thousands of priests and battle priests withdrew from the Grimm Empire one after another, it was difficult to see the shadows of the priests on the battlefield.

From then on, wounds on the battlefield meant death, and the brave knights began to become fearful.

The knights of the guard battalion of the city of Pules were also issued a standard military repeater three years ago, and shooting the enemy with crossbow arrows can minimize their own casualties, at that time, the Earl of Collins was quite complacent about his own initiative, but in just three years, the knights who are used to picking up the standard military crossbow no longer know how to use spears and shields, and this time the reconnaissance mission of the Maca plane revealed fatal drawbacks.

After the melee ability of the knights of the guard battalion in the city of Pulas was greatly weakened, they were on the battlefield of the maca plane. Once the hellhound pounced on the military formation, the resistance and fighting will of the knights of the Plois Guard Battalion were also the worst, and the chaos in the military formation became a pot of porridge, which was also the root cause of the largest number of casualties in the Pluck City Guard Battalion.

A knight of the Guard Battalion of the city of Highlanza was now holding a silver long knife to treat the wounded knight of Prex.

From time to time, a cloud of holy light appeared in the knight's hand to attract the attention of Count Collins.

He remembered the battle priests in the temple at the beginning, they also wore armor and fought with the knights, but when they rested, they would put down their weapons and use the divine power in their bodies to heal the knights.

With the protection of the goddess, they seem to be tireless, busy like a war machine, and only when the sun rises, they need a brief moment of meditation and prayer to restore the divine power in their bodies.

The knight of the city of Hylanza was also constantly treating the wounded knight like a battle priest.

For a moment, the Earl of Collins's mind flew back to a few years ago, when he was still in the prime of life, and he did not know that he was tired from running from morning to night when he rode on his horse, but now he had only been away from the city of Warzhmara for a day and a night, and his whole body was like a broken fight, and he did not even dare to lie down, because he was afraid that he might not be able to get up after lying down.

The Earl of Collins jumped off the boulder and sat down against it.

Viscount Emmett came to his side and sat aside, squinting at the sunset.

"How come your guard battalion still has a combat officer?" Count Collins looked at Surdak's busy figure and asked Viscount Emmett curiously.

"You say the Surdak Knights, right?" Viscount Emmett didn't need to ask carefully to know who Count Collins was talking about, and immediately explained: "He is not a combat officer, he is just an ordinary soldier who has crawled out of the heavy infantry regiment, and now he has joined our Hylantha Guard Battalion and become a glorious guard battalion knight, but it is said that he has comprehended the divine magic element in his body, and he can cultivate magic and martial arts like a magic swordsman, but the divine magic element is just ......"

This is the explanation given by the Magic Guild, and with the endorsement of the Magic Guild, Emmett doesn't care whether this statement is credible or not, this is the standard answer.

However, Count Collins will not question the Magic Guild because of the face of a certain magician, he tugged at the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile: "I have only heard of awakening the perception of the four magical elements, but I have never heard that there are still people who can awaken the perception of the divine elements, your Hylantha guard battalion is really lucky, with such a knight in disguise, you don't know how many fewer people will die in this war!" ”

Then the Earl of Collins paused again, and then added with a smile: "Hehe, but you said that he was promoted all the way from the infantry regiment and finally became a knight of the guard battalion, so he is not a nobleman?" ”

Viscount Emmett was limited to Surdak on paper, and he didn't even know that there was a knight in the guard camp before he left the city of Highlandsa.

However, Viscount Emmett has done a good job of his homework lately, and he said to the Earl of Collins: "Well, he joined the 57th Heavy Infantry Regiment as a civilian, and during his military service in Warsaw, he was recruited by Mondstadt. Count Goss has recommended him to become a Reserve Knight and is currently studying at the Knight Academy of Highlandsa, but he has now been officially knighted by the Knights of Highlandsa. ”

Once you become an official knight with a title, then it means that you have a knight's domain, and this knight has basically been branded with some lord.

But how could the Earl of Collins care about this, he has seen a lot of this kind of thing, so he squinted at the sky and said, "What if...... I mean, if I want to pull him to settle in Pulach, how much resistance do you think there will be on the side of Hylanza? ”

Viscount Emmett didn't expect Surdak to be taken by Count Collins at a glance, but that wouldn't be too surprising.

After all, he is a knight with the power of holy light, Viscount Emmett laughed dryly twice, and said, "I don't know this, he is Thor. The red man in the eyes of Captain Aldington, you still have to think about how to say it to Thor! ”

The Earl of Collins frowned slightly and said, "You mean that hot-tempered kid from the Aldington family?" Looks like I'm going to have a lot of trouble digging this Surdak knight into the city of Pleos! ”

Seeing that Collins blatantly showed that he was going to poach people, Viscount Emmett smiled unceremoniously and said to Earl Collins: "It is impossible for us in the Haylantha Guard Battalion to give you this opportunity, Lord Collins. ”

"Hehe, then you have to watch people." Earl Collins said.

……

Of course, the knights of the guard battalion located on the mountainside would not know that the two commanders who were talking happily on the top of the mountain would actually quarrel over a knight in disguise.

Samira, the half-elf archer, was leaning against the edge of the tent, carefully disposing of the heads of the Hellhounds, and although she knew that they could not all be taken away, she still handled each one carefully, and was reluctant to discard each one.

The knight of the Haylanza Guard Battalion found that this half-elf archer was very fond of the glittering silver hammer in addition to the head of the hellhound, as long as she was willing to take out a little silver hammer, she could get some help from her, such as asking her to hunt a few delicious pheasants in the surrounding mountains and forests, she was familiar with the jungle here, she was more familiar with the game that lived here, and knew that the meat of the wild fowl was more tender.

Her archery skills are very accurate, and she rarely returns empty-handed as long as she shoots.

The main thing is that she can leave the battalion anytime and anywhere without being reprimanded by Captain Emmett.

This is due to the fact that in addition to being able to bring back wild game in the wild, she can also bring back some hemostatic herbs and local herbs, although they are not precious magical herbs, but they are of great help to the knights in the guard camp, so Viscount Emmett gave Samira the right to enter and leave the camp freely.

This half-elf archer rarely wanders around the camp, and as long as she is in the camp, she will definitely sit outside the Surdak knight's tent, and if she can't be found here, then she must have gone out to dig into the woods.

The Nanai warrior Andrew became Surdak's assistant, a native with big hands like a big fan has his own unique way of grafting and bandaging, and he is very meticulous and conscientious, these two new members of the Hylanza Guard Regiment, in just three days, actually integrated into this large group very well.

Andrew taught you how to collect the leaves of Artemisia grass, mash them and apply them to your face and arms, not only to avoid mosquito bites in the surrounding area, but also to blend in with the surrounding jungle, even if you sweat from the sweltering heat of the jungle, the green paint will not be washed away.

……

In fact, the three commanders did not wait long at the nameless peak.

Just before the sunset completely entered the mountain col, two black dots finally appeared in the air, as the two black dots slowly enlarged, two figures riding magic handles appeared in the sky, in the cautious and cautious about the surrounding affairs, the two magicians circled in the sky, and did not find any trace of hellhounds in the surrounding area, so they rode the magic handles and slowly landed in the glade.

The two young magicians walked down and asked the knights around them, "Which one is the commander of the guard battalion?" ”

Viscount Emmett, Earl Collins, and Viscount Owen walked down from the top of the hill at the same time and saw the two young magicians, and did not rush to tell the information, but checked the identities of the two magicians, and then talked about the information in the town of Mezin.

The magicians were also taken aback by the news that there were many young demon children in the town of Umezu, and immediately looked at each other, wanting to send this important information to the city of Warzmara immediately, but seeing that the three commanders had not finished explaining the matter, they had to listen quietly.

The two magicians didn't expect the guard battalion to take the initiative to take on the task of reconnaissance and surveillance here, so they naturally agreed to come down in a hurry.

Before leaving, the two magicians asked the guard battalion for help: the reason was that the magician of a reconnaissance group had been inexplicably missing in this mountain forest for about two days, and had not received any distress signal before his disappearance, and after the disappearance, the magician group sent people to search for him and did not get any clues, as if the magician had disappeared out of thin air.

However, since the guard battalion has a large number of scout squads scattered into the jungle around the area, there is a good chance that they will find clues to the missing magician......
