Chapter 49: Hors d'oeuvres

At a dock in the upper reaches of the Penuvillo River, Abner, Furth, and Gwen's extraordinary team hired to "protect" them had just stepped off the river steamer when they heard a dense burst of gunfire coming from the valley where the town of Lancel was located.

Of course, due to the distance, the ordinary people on the ship were unaware, except for Gwen, Lydia, Tran, Firth, and Abner, even a few members of Gwen's commando team with a keen sense were aware of it.

Lydia glanced at the team members who were on alert when they noticed the gunshot, and signaled to them not to be too obvious, if they scared the "employer" away, they would have no reason to stay, and it would be difficult to do it then.

Gwen acquiesced to Lydia's actions, but felt guilty that she had put the two in danger, so she approached Abner and her assistant, disguised as a professor and assistant, to protect them.

Gwen has been promoted to "Guardian" and holds the "Silver Sword" to her "defense" ability

Quite confident.

Seeing such a move, Furth's impression of her immediately became much better, and she said directly with the perception that Abner was "shielding" others:

"This Miss Gwen has a very good character, and it is no wonder that Hugh always complimented her when he came back from his first voyage to sea."

At this time, Firth already knew that she was actually hired by the newly promoted so-called "Dragoon Lieutenant General" on the sea, and she also explored the cave with Hugh and Abner, and together killed Anne of the "Dragon's Eye Python". Miss Gwen.

Speaking of which, Foirth had heard the other party's name from Hugh a lot, but it was the first time he had seen her in person.

"That's high...... Hugh's statement that he could only kick her knees when he fought with her seemed to be true...... In the mouth of Furth

Muttered.

Abner glanced at her and smiled, "Gwen is in the same sequence as yours, and this time it's your trip,

So I won't make a move until the critical moment in the future, it's all about you...... You'll have to work well with her."

"Will there be any occasions in the future where she and I need to go all out?" Furth immediately picked up the point of Abner's words.

"It's hard to say...... But the enemies that are left to you must be within the scope of what you can handle." As Abner spoke, he sensed the current position of Vicente and many other high-ranking witches.

"Okay...... I hope I can get enough feedback on this trip, otherwise I will feel a lot of loss when I encounter so much trouble!" Furth sighed.

Abner was close by, and she wasn't afraid of danger.

"Don't worry, I don't think it's going to be any less than what you've gained in the Hall of Honesty." Abner curled the corners of his mouth

Road.

He is also a former "traveler", and he is still sure of the progress of digestion.

Hearing this, Firth's strength seemed to be emptied all of a sudden, and the experience of "social death" made her not even want to say more, but just glanced at Abner angrily.

Abner didn't care, he pulled out a "historical projection" of his own, and let him arrive at the town of Lancel first.

At this time, the battle that took place at the mouth of the valley where the town of Lansel was located had entered its most intense period, and with the casualties, both sides were also red-eyed, and constantly poked their heads out of their bunkers to shoot.

Overall, however, because of the terrain and fortifications, the patrols of Lansel Town had the upper hand.

Although there are only about 30 people in this patrol, whether it is weapons, morale, or even military ability, it is above the chaotic army of more than 100 people, and it is a veritable elite.

In the trench outside the valley mouth, the middle-aged man known as the "regimental leader" once again raised his binoculars to observe the not-so-tall wall built outside the town of Lanssel, and his heart suddenly felt troubled.

"This section of the wall was built in such a way that it locked all the lines of attack, and in the words of Russell the Great, it was 'one man who defended a dangerous pass, and all men were helpless,...

... The leader of this town is not simple, maybe he was an officer!

"Even if I'm a Sequence 8 'provocateur', it's unlikely that I'll be able to destroy it with my abilities, but probably because of it

'Provocation, beaten into a sieve......"

Thinking of this, the middle-aged man was ruthless in his heart, and ordered the adjutant, "Use a secret weapon to destroy that section of the city wall."

"Yes!" The adjutant answered first, but instead of immediately carrying out the order, he asked with some hesitation, "

Commander, do you want to use it now? There's only two shots left for that thing."

"it, blow up that section of the wall to give full play to our numerical advantage." The middle-aged man gritted his teeth.

Abner Projection, who had quietly come to the battlefield, happened to hear this conversation, and just when he was a little curious about what the so-called secret weapon of this gang of rebels was, and whether he wanted to "see" it, he saw the adjutant carefully open a box, take out a long cylinder from it, and put it on his shoulder.

This...... This seems to be a single anti-armor weapon sold by Morning Star City to the Three Kingdoms of Lemburg...... They don't work well with the walls...... Abner complained in his heart, and then without hesitation, he used the authority of "wisdom" to make some moves on the ammunition in the barrel:

"Armor-piercing shells can only be used against armor, and walls are not armored, so armor-piercing shells are ineffective if they hit a wall."

It's nothing to sell weapons for military combat, but they must not be used against civilians right under your nose!

Although the townspeople in the town of Lancel are not serious civilians, they are no longer a military institution after losing the support of the Sauron family more than a hundred years ago.

With a "whoosh", a pointed cannonball shot out of the barrel, and it hit it in a "perfect" position

On the wall of the valley mouth, a brick collapsed......

"Didn't make a sound?!" The middle-aged man and the lieutenant cursed at the same time, "Shit!"

Just as they were about to shoot the last of their ammunition, their force came under heavy fire from behind.

The rebel army, which was already demoralized due to the setback of the attack, was now flanked again, and the enemies behind them seemed to be all "sharpshooters", and almost a dozen people were reimbursed in one shot.

Under this kind of blow, the already loosely disciplined chaotic army collapsed in an instant, and even the "Supervision Team" formed by the so-called "regiment commander" could not be suppressed.

Glancing at the rebels who had fled in all directions during the attack of Gwen's extraordinary squad, Abner turned back to look in the direction of the town, and thought to himself:

This rebellious army will be attracted to it, and I am afraid that it is also because the ruins of the "Blood Emperor" are about to be "opened...... After all, the "Red Priest" route symbolizes "blood and fire", and the rebellion to attack the city is probably just an "appetizer"!
