Chapter 64: Dawn
Victor seemed to guess Ryan's thoughts, and he said disapprerovingly, "Now you understand why I hate dealing with these self-righteous guys, right? Actually, at the Royal Academy of Magic, there are more such eyeliners, so I don't usually stay there, but in my own magic tower."
Ryan nodded clearly, he was just an ordinary magician at that time, of course, he didn't understand Victor's situation, but now when he also reached this position, he naturally knew everything.
"Speaking of which, in fact, these guys are also very sad, they try to control everything, but they can't do anything at all, so they have to make some eyeliner to disgust you. Hahahaha!" After Victor laughed for a while, he looked up at the stars with his hands behind his back and said slowly: "Any legendary powerhouse is an existence that ordinary people need to look up to, you should know your strength very well now, right?
"I see. Ryan nodded slightly, in fact, this time in the battle of Mochizuki City, the reason why Cassano won in the end was that they had a legendary powerhouse, and Mochizuki City had no rival opponent, if they didn't want to lose a lot, they could only choose to give in rationally. If Catherine, who is a legendary powerhouse, had dealt with Ryan at that time, it would have been difficult to force Mochizuki City to submit just by relying on Adela and her army of more than 10,000 people.
Looking back now, it is natural to find that the original strategy had great shortcomings, but this cannot be said that the strategy was wrong, after all, in the entire battle planning stage, no one knows the real strength of the opponent, and can only be analyzed and inferred based on the existing intelligence, who knows that in fact, Catherine did not make a move at all in the entire battle of Mochizuki City, and the forces behind Catherine were even more hidden without a trace, and sat back and watched Mochizuki City give in to Lane.
If he had known that this was the end, why would Ryan take Cassano's army and go alone like Paradise of Freedom, not to mention that he would have dragged Freya and Reynolds to prevent the interference of the undead legion, and Victor would not have secretly made a scroll to give to Ryan. This scroll has the opposite effect of the space-time gate, it does not allow Ryan to escape, but provides Victor with a space-time marker, so that Victor can teleport to Ryan in the shortest possible time, so that he can face the challenge of the undead army side by side.
"Legendary powerhouse, this title is already very difficult to hear in our plane, because at the same time, this level of powerhouse is very rare, just like Drane and me, hehe. "When I was at my peak, it was the moment when Draeney was aging, so much so that we barely crossed paths and had to lick that loneliness alone," Victor said. Thankfully, you're a variable, and I'm lucky to have that didn't follow in Dranay's footsteps. ”
"Well, let's not talk about this nonsense for now, let's talk about the battle that is about to start. Victor soon realized that he was a little off-topic, he calmed down, changed the subject back and continued: "It is precisely because of the scarcity that almost everyone has forgotten how to use the power of a legendary powerhouse, fortunately Orlando himself is one of us, otherwise I estimate that in such a war, most of us can only stay in front of the supreme military commander as a strategic adviser or as a bodyguard." Well, if necessary, we may act as heralds to relay the most critical orders...... In short, it is impossible to arrange all the campaign subordinates around us as it is now. ”
"Ah, so...... Are we the protagonists of this war?" Ryan listened to Victor's words, and his blood boiled, and for a moment it seemed to be back in the time when he was in Thor's Fortress, and it was the thought of General Clarke, who died on the battlefield, that gave Ryan the opportunity to play his own light.
"Of course, the commander of the human side of this battle is also a legendary powerhouse, and of course it is impossible to make that kind of inexplicable mistake again. Over the next few days, Orlando will be done with the troops, and the battle will revolve around a few of us. When Victor said this, his tone suddenly changed slightly: "Speaking of which, Ryan, have you noticed it, as long as you are by your side, it seems that the strength has increased very quickly, in addition to yourself, Alundo's strength is almost about to step into the legendary realm, right? As for the current Great Magister realm of Faraz, it is all because of you." ”
"Yes...... Ryan scratched his head shyly and looked up at the starry sky, "Maybe it's just a coincidence?"
"Yes, I also hope it's a coincidence, otherwise if you guys really have some means to create legendary powerhouses in batches, then my old guy won't be able to get along in the imperial capital, hahahaha!" Victor laughed after speaking, and Ryan's heart was sudden, he didn't know whether Victor said it casually or pointed, but when he saw Victor's playful eyes, Ryan suddenly understood something, and laughed along.
The two legendary powerhouses stood on the moonlit prairie like this and laughed non-stop, and the guards who followed them from afar looked at me, I look at you, I don't know what is worth laughing about on such a night, or this is the biggest difference between the legendary powerhouse and ordinary people, right?
Unconsciously, time passed slowly, the eastern sky was already faintly white, and in about a few hours, the sun would rise above the ground, and a new day would come, and the main decisive battle between humans and orcs that would determine the future fate of the continent would begin.
――――――*――――――*―――――― "Ah!" After a lingering yawn, Balin shook his head in anguish, as if to dispel the sleepiness in his heart. As the captain of the team responsible for the security of the dock area of Sea Breeze City, Bahrain has been very unhappy recently, originally Sea Breeze City, as the largest port city in the Holy Alliance Empire, is also a hub port connecting the north and south shipping, and there are more than 1,000 ships entering and leaving the dock area every day, and Bahrain can naturally eat a lot of extra oil and water on it.
It's a pity that the days are not as good as day by day, when the sunrise city in the north fell, the shipping between the north and south of the mainland has shrunk by more than half, not only the captain of the security team in the dock area like Bahrain has no oil and water, but even the famous pirates who are rampant on the sea are hungry and have to do some other things to make a living, such as smuggling.
Because of the emergence of the separatist situation, the furs and other specialties in the north are becoming less and less in the south, and ordinary caravans simply do not have the courage to cross the imperial capital and the orc area to do these businesses, which provides a certain space for these pirates to smuggle. This is also the reason why Bahrain did not go lazy to sleep tonight, but had to hold on to the eyelids of non-stop fighting, because a few days ago the dark line greeted him, due to the current unstable situation in the mainland, several pirates who secretly colluded with Bahrain coincidentally hit the idea here, and they even smuggled at such a coincidental time, all on the same night.
Since several outlaws have the same plan, it means that the profits in this are quite considerable, and even Bahrain himself is a little tempted, planning to extort more benefits later. But the thought of those fierce outlaws made Bahrain timid. According to some gossip, the worst group among those guys is probably the original two-axe mercenary group, in this city, how strong the two-axe mercenary group is, Bahrain is very clear, but when they change to pirates, they can only condescend to the last seat, which is enough to explain something. Barin felt that he still had a few children, a dozen mistresses, and a lot of time to spend slowly, and those extra benefits, it was better not to be greedy.
"Head, look!" A follower in his early 20s beside Bahrain suddenly pointed to the vast sea and shouted excitedly, so frightened that Bahrain directly reached out and knocked heavily on his head a few times, and then said angrily: "You idiot, so loud, want to recruit everyone else?"
After scolding his subordinates who were doing things roughly, Bahrain turned his eyes in the direction of the sea, and sure enough, he clearly saw three clearly visible lights swinging up and down, which was the code that Bahrain and those pirates were better. As for the swing up and down, of course, it's because of the sea Lang.
"Why don't you hurry up and do something, a bunch of idiots! I take so much money to support you, and you are still so clumsy......" In Balin's scolding voice, the dozen or so subordinates he brought were immediately busy. Because he knew that there was pirate smuggling activities tonight, Bahrain naturally spent money to buy up and down, so they were the only ones in the dock area, and the security team in charge of patrolling Seabreeze City tonight would also miss the time when the goods were sold, in other words, under the offensive of money, Bahrain was not worried about someone interfering with his fortune.
Bahrain stood a few steps next to the bollards at the pier, while one of his attendants shook a torch in his hand to signal the ships outside the harbor to respond. It didn't take much effort, a shabby-looking sea ship slowly sailed into the harbor, and Bahrain knew at a glance that this ship belonged to Duke, the mad dog of the two-axe mercenary group, although it did not fly its own pirate battle flag, but the style of the sea ship could not be changed.
"Smack!" A heavy roll of cable was thrown to the dock, and Bahrain's men naturally picked up the rope and quickly wrapped it around the stump next to it. After the ship docked, a wet gangplank was pushed out, and a guy with his whole body shrouded in a cloak staggered from the seaboat and stepped on the gangplank towards the dock.
