Chapter 95: Encirclement and Suppression (1)
Under Morgan's tough attitude, Marcus snorted and didn't say anything more.
And Gleilint has nothing to say, firstly, his strength and qualifications are relatively shallow, and he really has no right to speak. Second, the "Oath of Justice" is indeed not suitable for him, compared to the "Oath of Justice" super restraint ability of necromantic creatures, he still thinks that the "paper man stand-in" that can save his life is more meaningful.
After a while, Mick called both Joan and Jon.
Seeing this, Morgan quickly explained his combat arrangement:
"We'll be working as a separate combat squad when the time comes, and I, Marcus, and Jon will be shooting from a distance with a steam rifle, and we'll be working together with certain spell abilities. And Glerint, you're in charge of clearing up the incoming enemies with Athena, well, the three of us will also assist you in the time. ”
"As for Joan and Mick, the two of you are mainly on guard against the enemy this time, and you can just make up for our omissions. Of course, it would be better if there was some assistance. ”
After all, it's just two sequence nines, and one of them is a soothsayer who is not good at frontal combat at all.
Later, Morgan distributed 50 purification bullets to each of the members, and asked Glerint to go to the arsenal to pick up a melee weapon, the "Greatsword of Fire". It is a broadsword with a blazing flame attached to its blade, and its blade has a constant extraordinary ability, the "Flame Possession" of the "Pyroman", but it is not made of extraordinary characteristics, as it has no negative effects and only 4 months of effectiveness.
Seeing the extraordinary ability of "Flame Possession", Glerint thought of the bronze "Arson Badge" he had received from Hessel. It also has most of the extraordinary abilities of the "arsonist", but its negative effect is particularly serious, that is, when using it, the user will feel an unbearable burning sensation at the same time, as if it is clinging to a red-hot soldering iron.
The most troublesome thing is that when Glerint tries to "record" the extraordinary abilities of the badge, this negative effect is also recorded.
Now that I think about it, the reason why Hessel was able to use it at that time should have been to attach a layer of "witch" "frost" to himself.
Since the item was not practical to him, Glerint had to put it away to see if he could use it for Shirley or trade it with others.
…………
At dawn, after getting ready for battle, the crowd rested for a few more hours, and finally waited for the army's action group. To Glerint's surprise, the leader of the team was actually his acquaintance, Audrey's second brother, and at the same time his own hair boy, Alfred.
Glancing at the other man's epaulettes, Glerint realized that he was already a lieutenant colonel.
Tsk, Alfred is amazing. You know, he is not like Gleilint, he has a knighthood bonus, he joined the special division MI9, and at the same time he swore an oath to the seal "2-47, the loyalty of the betrayer", and he has the title of major as soon as he comes. He entered the army "in white", and at most Count Hall provided him with some financial help.
At the same time, Alfred also spotted Gleilynt in the crowd, but he did not say hello abruptly, but said to Morgan quietly:
"Good morning, you must be Your Excellency Colonel Morgan."
"I'm Alfred."
"I'm sorry, I just got transferred to Verteck this year, so I don't know much about it."
Glerint noticed that he didn't introduce his last name. I don't know if it's arrogant or deliberately concealed.
Morgan smiled indifferently, without too much greeting, and after a brief chat, he immediately said:
"I've already explained the general information in the telegram, I don't know if you still have any doubts? If you have one, you can ask the member we found the enemy trail in, his name is Glerint. ”
He pointed to Glerint, indicating that this was the man who had spotted the enemy.
Alfred nodded calmly:
"Please prepare a quiet room for me."
Clever, Glerint's eyes lit up so that he could communicate with himself privately, but he didn't know if he belonged to Basel's trusted enough subordinates, and if he knew about Morgan's anomaly.
Morgan was slightly surprised, but he did what he wanted.
…………
In the quiet room, watching Glerint close the door of the room, Alfred raised his right arm, palmed forward, and chanted in a low voice in the ancient Hermetian language:
"Eavesdropping is forbidden here!"
"Judge"?
Or "Knights of Punishment"?
Glerint raised his eyebrows slightly, he remembered that Alfred was the "arbiter" in the original book, so he did not suspect that he was using magical items to achieve the "forbidden".
"Long time no see, Glerint."
"What are you wondering about?"
Finally seeing a childhood friend, Alfred was in a very good mood, and his cold face showed a little smile from the heart. He was slightly older than Glerint and used to play a lot with them as a child.
Glerint nodded, and returned the same smile:
"Nothing, Alfred. I'm just a little curious about your current sequence level. ”
"You know, I've been very interested in these supernatural powers in the past."
Although the one who is really familiar with Alfred is the original Viscount Glerint, but now he has inherited his identity, hasn't he inherited his identity? Of course, he inherited all his social relationships.
Alfred smiled lightly, with a look of reminiscence, and said:
"Yes, but I remember that you and Audrey, Murray, and Christine were reluctant to join MI9 and the three major churches? How did you change your mind now? ”
"Well, I'm Sequence Six now, 'Judge.'"
"Judge"!
Glelint shook his head, and then pretended to smile deeply:
"At that time, we were still young, and we didn't understand the truth that you get when you give. Always thinking that you can gain extraordinary abilities without performing tasks. Later, I realized that no matter which way we get extraordinary abilities, we always have to put in the time and effort to do so. ”
Hearing his emotion, Alfred nodded approvingly and said:
"That's true."
"Looks like you've really grown a lot."
……
After chatting a few words about the past, Alfred returned to business seriously:
"What's going on with you, I heard Admiral Basel say there's something wrong with Morgan? What is his attitude this time? ”
Admiral Basel seems to have trusted Alfred very much and did not hide the truth from him.
And when Glerint gave him a detailed introduction to the situation, he also fell into deep thought.
After a moment, he said calmly:
"I can't figure out his purpose."
"But anyway, let's be a little more vigilant."
"Your Excellency Admiral has sent me to supervise Morgan with you, and he knows my relationship with you. I'll be here for the rest of the year. ”
So that's it!
Indeed, he is a sequence eight, even if he has the "chain of secret laws", how can he fight Morgan? It turns out that Basel is also waiting for this reasonable opportunity to send someone over!
