Chapter 17: Abandonment of Assassination

Brian looked at the sky worriedly, just as he had dreamed two days earlier, no wind, no stars, a night with only black clouds. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

He was thinking about whether to kill Alik, and killing him didn't seem to have any other benefit than his own further approval from the church.

Let him live?

Let this incompetent archduke, who is afraid of death, temporarily gain some advantages and force the church to make some concessions, then Alik, who is carrying the pot on his back in the future, will inevitably lead the nobles and deal with the church.

This should be more appropriate, at least their own fiefdom, which will not attract too much attention from the pope.

Judging from Pemba's scouting, Alic still had a hand, and although he decided to send the Janissary Army to ambush the Lion Legion, he still left five hundred men behind to defend his quarters, the surroundings of a small living room. Since yesterday, the Grand Duke has been in that room without leaving an inch, only the closest housekeepers and concubines can enter, a person who cherishes life is cautious, Brian guessed, there is probably a secret passage inside, but he did not use his mental power to push the Eye of Scout into Alex's house, so that he will see the private life of the big fat man, Brian feels a little obscene.

Giving up the assassination made Brian relaxed, although he felt that he was 90% sure and wanted to test his combat power after enlightenment, but in the end he did not take the risk. Brian simply came to the city wall to watch the battle that was about to begin, and then personally led the Maple Leaf Guardian to retreat.

Senior's soul signal had been sent out, and all the undead were ready, and their first war on the main plane had begun, with the spider cavalry quietly rushing into the camp on the riverbank, while the hedgehog prince with a few skeletons began to cut down the piers of the ice bridge.

The fire was lit up, the screams shook the sky, the mercenaries defending the Kanna River were attacked by unknown enemies, the whole camp was in flames, when the sentries saw the appearance of the enemy, it was too late, the poisonous smoke was everywhere, they could only pinch their throats, and let out a few dry howls before dying, which was a warning to others, but it could not change the outcome of the destruction. Is it a nightmare for some skeletal, eight-legged monsters, carrying terrifying skeletons and zombies, to move quickly and orderly before disappearing into the darkness?

The Wild Lion Legion was already ready to go to the bank of the river, Sophie stared at the river tightly, of course he didn't believe that Brian was a god, he didn't believe that the river would suddenly freeze, even though the other bank was completely messed up, he still didn't believe that a miracle would happen.

A crystal clear frozen bridge full ten meters wide slowly floated on the water, General Sophie's eyes widened, the incredible thing was really in front of him, he almost didn't think about it, he issued the order to charge.

Sure enough, as Brian expected, Sophie couldn't hold back the excitement, even the ice bridge appeared, he subconsciously went to cash in on the bets of both sides, seven thousand people stepped on the extremely solid ice, rushed to the north gate, five minutes, Sophie moved forward with all his might, he thought that he could not be embarrassed in front of Brian.

Brian stood on the city wall and smiled knowingly, it seemed that Sophie had still been tricked, the Wild Lion Legion had already rushed towards the north gate, and they did not suddenly change their route.

"Signal, Fuller. ”

"Yes, sir. Fuller asked the herald to release the simplest of magic scrolls, and a white light shot up into the sky.

The Wild Lion Legion, who had already come to the city, found that the city gate was not open, Sophie was in a hurry, and suddenly saw the light in the sky, his heart sank suddenly, and he already understood that he had been fooled.

"Damn, Brian, you dare to lie to Lao Tzu!" Sophie roared, but he was a veteran after all, and he had encountered many dangers, so he immediately suppressed his anger and fear, and ordered his troops to retreat quickly. "Don't mess around, keep in formation, protect the magician squad, the crossbowmen prepare, everyone try to break through. ”

The killing shout shook the sky, taking advantage of the night to cover the nearby Sacred Heart City warriors, quickly surrounded the Wild Lion Legion like a tide, the arrows of both sides flew crosswise in the sky, and various group attack spells were also released one after another.

"We can go, Sophie will lose this battle, even if he is calm, after all, he has encountered an attack, the enemy is outnumbered, and the soldiers of the Wild Lion Legion do not have such a stable mentality. Seeing that the ranks of the Wild Lions were gradually becoming a little chaotic, Brian came to the conclusion that a hanging heart finally let go, and it seemed that the script was not executed according to the dream, but according to his original calculations.

The rope had already been prepared, and as soon as a bundle was put on the stack of arrows, the soldiers of the Maple Leaf Escort Regiment began to descend the rope, and they moved in order, in turn, according to the usual practice, the officers charged in front, retreated in the rear, and Brian stood by and waited patiently, he had to be the last to go down.

Two thousand people crossed the river, and Brian released the fire element to melt the ice bridge, while looking at the battle situation on the other bank, the killing shouts were still so intense, and Sacred Heart City also paid a very high price.

"Alas, these days, there are too many people dying. Brian let out a long sigh and used his soul to inform Senior, "The souls on the battlefield are all handed over to you, pay attention to concealment when collecting." ”

"No problem, Boss, how are the undead doing in this raid?" the Hedgehog Prince began to ask for credit.

"Good, better than I expected, very orderly, very abrupt and nothing went wrong. ”

"Then you should send me a medal and commend me. ”

"I'll go, do you have a place for your bones?"

"Then you have to think of a way, in short, I will also use meritorious service to inspire my minions to fight bravely. ”

"Well, when we're done dealing with the battlefield, I'm working on this. Brian saw that the ice bridge had not completely melted away, but there were already some soldiers who had broken through, risking being burned to death by the fire elemental, and had escaped, all of whom were relatively high-ranking soldiers.

The Maple Leaf Guardians were already arraying on the other side of the river, shooting these fish that slipped through the net, and Brian certainly couldn't let anyone escape and sue himself at the church.

There was actually a fifth-level warrior, wearing full-body armor and protecting his body with fighting spirit, blocking the shot of the crossbowman, he was covered in blood, almost crazy, and rushed towards the bow and crossbow camp with his sword. Brian was about to make a move, but he saw a "small" soldier come to the enemy, draw his thin sword, and in three turns, let the opponent fall to the ground.

"Lillian!" Brian was stunned, "you didn't go?"

"I didn't leave either. "Helois, disguised in oil paint, is also dressed in soldier's clothes.

"Fuller, tell me what's going on?" Brian knew that the two women could not hide among the soldiers without the cooperation of the regimental commander.

"I'm sorry my lord, but I support their decision, someone has to protect you. Fuller explained carefully. (To be continued.) )
