Chapter 139: The Mission
It broke free from the ice sheet, its cunning eyes warily watching Innelli no longer daring to attack easily.
And Ineri is naturally happy to stall.
Of course, Nasrezm was not so simply deterred, and it appeared behind Inniri out of thin air again, this time, it was some distance away from Inriri, so a bloodshot decapitating sword appeared in its hand, and it fell towards Inniri from a distance.
Sensing the strong wind, Inelli immediately triggered the effect of the magic talisman purchased at the rally, and easily dodged the sword.
Its expression was gloomy, and it once again unleashed the talent of space jumping to keep up.
This time, it no longer deliberately left a distance, and the moment its form was revealed, it was repelled by the golden aura that suddenly exploded.
Obviously he had been hit hard, but Nasrezm's expression became excited, "I see, it's this cross pendant." This is a good thing that a witch has researched, and it is much trickier than the holy silver of the church. ”
"But since it's a magic item, I'd like to see what you do when it runs out of magic?"
Inelli said coldly, "You can try." ”
Even Nasrezm is limited in the number of consecutive space jumps he can make in a short period of time.
Under normal circumstances, Innieri would not be able to hold up the upper limit of Nasrezm's spatial travel ability, and would be instantly killed by him.
But now it's different.
With the [Demon Resistance Talisman] in hand, Nasrezm could not pose a threat to her anytime soon.
In terms of speed alone, Nasrezm swung her sword not much faster than Innelli, and she had plenty of room to dodge.
And she didn't just have one amulet.
The [Demon Resistance] amulet that Lady Angelina had intended to give William as a gift was also in her possession.
It will take quite a while for Nasrezm to break through these two talismans.
And during this time, it was the best time for her to defeat the strong and kill this Nasrezm.
Nasrezm suddenly showed a grim smile after another failed attack, and its figure suddenly flashed, and then appeared behind Leon.
Although I don't know why the witch who should have been occupied by the storm spirit is not abnormal, it is the man who is unconscious.
But that doesn't stop it from playing such a game.
Sure enough, in the face of such an attack, Innelli had no choice but to be forced to return to help, although Leon also had the talisman of [Resist the Demon], but as long as it exceeded a certain range, the talisman would not take effect, and Nasrezm's performance just now proved that it had already discovered this loophole.
Keng——
Nasrezm's decapitating sword slammed Ineri into the air, her black hair growing in mid-air, and her legs and arms turned into fluffy werewolves.
"Despicable!"
Nasrezm laughed and said, "Hehe, the ridiculous emotions of being human, the so-called bonds, love, friendship, loyalty, are but a drag; ”
As he spoke, it reappeared behind Leon with a decapitating sword.
It won't kill Leon, nor will it kill Innelli, as it still needs to transform the two of them into demons and bring them back to the abyss.
The reason for this is nothing more than to force Inili to the point where she has to confront it head-on.
At the same time, in Livonia, the headquarters of the Knights of the Sword was stationed, a wooden castle that stood on the hillside.
The new Grand Master of the Order of the Sword and the Bohemian Branch of the Teutonic Order, Count Isca, sat on a mahogany seat.
Heavily armoured guards, armed with sticks and ceremonial battle axes, stood behind the Count of Iskar.
The high-ranking knights and nobles of the Order were divided into two rows, seated on the left and right sides below the Count of Isca.
The path vacated in the middle, the Lithuanian emissaries were announcing to him the will of the new Lithuanian coalition forces.
"Count Iska, my king has commanded you to leave the land of Lithuania with your soldiers and men immediately, and he will be merciful—>>
and forgive you your sins. ”
Count Iskar lazily said, "Submit to me, convert to God, and all the states of Lithuania will have peace." ”
A bloodstained glove was thrown in front of him.
The messenger looked around coldly and scolded, "Disgusting Bohèmes, you have colluded with the Germans, killed our king, humiliated our wives and daughters, burned our quiet and peaceful town, and now you have come to us to offer peace?"
The messenger straightened his chest and looked at the ugly-faced Count of Bohemia.
The Bohemians and Lithuanians are strictly of the same ethnicity, the former being the West Slavs and the latter mostly the East Slavs.
The Count of Iskar corrected lightly, "I am a Roman. ”
The deputy envoy laughed loudly in Greek, "Barbarians, dare to call themselves Romans?"
Only then did Count Iskar notice that the deputy envoy was not a Slav, but more like a Greek.
"Did the Byzantines also get involved in the affairs of Lithuania?"
The Byzantine Empire is a contemptuous name for Eastern Rome, and in fact the Eastern Roman Empire still retains the title of the Roman Empire, just as the Southern Song Dynasty and the Northern Song Dynasty are still called the Song Empire.
"Perhaps I am not worthy of the title of Roman, but neither are you, Greek. ”
"You have the blood of art and romance in your veins, but you have not inherited the iron blood and bravery of the Romans, and the last Roman, Belisarius, was blinded by your emperor and lived in the streets, and you are even more unworthy to call yourself a Roman. ”
The deputy envoy clenched his fists.
In fact, as a famous general who once fought in the east and west, even if he retired, the wealth obtained in the war was still enough to support him to live a prosperous old age.
Most of those encounters were deliberately portrayed by writers as tragic characters in their later years in order to highlight the drama.
But where did he explain this?
He said angrily: "The advantage of the tongue can never compare to the sharpness of the sword and gun on the battlefield." ”
Count Iskar laughed and mocked, "What, is this cowardly Greek going to ask the Varangians to help him?"
The deputy envoy's face suddenly turned red, and he was powerless to refute.
Today's Eastern Roman officials, the local division is serious, and the military region system is lax, which is not much better than that of the Southern Song Dynasty in the same period.
The only force that could be called a fighting force was a mercenary force composed entirely of Varangians who had migrated from northern Europe, and was cited as the guard of the Eastern Roman emperors.
This is a great irony for the Eastern Roman Empire, which has always boasted of Roman orthodoxy and the source of civilization.
The envoy stood up, he blocked the angry lieutenant, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "I have brought the will of my king, the Lithuanians are not afraid of swords and guns, and will remember blood feuds, since the Grand Master insists on not returning the land we occupy, we can only write our will with swords and bows." ”
"Let's go to war. ”
I doubt my ears a little.
He looked at Count Iskar, a middle-aged man with gray-blue eyes and a wrinkled face that looked a little premature, and his face was full of excitement and impatience.
Although it was necessary to use the forces of a mere count and a half-crippled Order of Swords to fight against the alliance of the entire Lithuanian nobility.
But he doesn't seem to feel like he's in a vulnerable position.
The envoy was surprised and asked, "Is this the answer you gave to my king?"
"Yes, we will have a sword in one hand and a cross in the other to educate you heretics. ”
The deputy envoy shouted, "Rude!"
The envoy stopped him, looked at the knights and nobles, and felt an irrepressible shock in his heart.
Almost all of them had fanaticism and belligerence in their eyes, and no one was afraid of war.
He realized that a war was inevitable, and that these fanatical believers would not easily withdraw from Lithuanian territory.
So, he wasted no more words, bowed perfunctorily, and hurried away.
