Chapter 44: Clues

"Arnold, who are they?"

He tightened his throat, tilted his head slightly, and whispered to Nuo behind him.

Nou squinted, carefully distinguishing the costumes of the two teams by the dim moonlight, and had a preliminary guess in his heart.

When he was about to talk back to Ti, the two menacing teams did not directly start a cannon battle, but took the lead in exchanging ideas.

"Hmph, don't you raunchy and self-righteous swordsmen even have no education, and we dare to grab our territory?!"

To No's right, a tall, uninhibited, rugged man roared angrily, turning the world upside down in the calm night, startling a swarm of insects that inhabited the forest.

Hearing this undisguised arrogant provocation, the thin man who led the way on the other side was furious, and his eyebrows were raised: "It's really interesting, you primitive people have also learned to write crepe, who will occupy the territory first, don't you brainless people not know?" ”

The thin man sneered, and taunted back with the same mercilessness.

As soon as the thin man's words came out, the rugged man and his teammates behind him suddenly couldn't stand, raised their heads and let out a long roar, lifted the giant axe in their hands and rushed straight over.

"I really take myself seriously, a vaudeville who can only play with a sword, suffer death!!"

The team led by the rugged man was obviously very hot-tempered, burning like a barrel of dynamite, ignoring the black lights and the special situation of the day, and the war should be started without the slightest ink.

Countering violence with violence, this is the stripe pursued by the tribe of heroes.

"It's worthy of a tribe of heroes, although I look down on their unreasonable and barbaric style, but straightforward people are always easier to deal with than those yin and yang people."

Nou muttered a few times, and the sound was caught in Ty's ears.

Ti opened her cherry mouth slightly in surprise: "Is this the rumored tribe of heroes with unique violent characteristics, it really matches their habits." ”

Nuo smiled slightly: "That's right, I have read in the report of the investigation of the major armed organizations, the people of the hero tribe are all Slavs, brave and warlike by nature, and they are angry at all, no matter who provokes them, it will end in a battle, and the one who has the biggest problem with the hero tribe is the wanderer."

The Drifters are the fourth largest armed group, and their members have a preference for swordsmanship, forming a unique group, and it is worth mentioning that most of the members of the Swordsmen are retired knights who are dissatisfied with the status quo in the Papal States and leave the army to form an armed group to fight against the Holy See. ”

Ti nodded and said, "I also know that many knights will choose to leave the army because they can't stand the rotten system and bureaucracy and become rebels in the Papal States, and some of them will either join the Knights of Dusk or join the Drifters.

It's just that......

Since both organizations have knights as the main components, why not merge into one and become a much larger force? ”

Ti was a little puzzled, doing so could obviously increase his strength, but he still chose to divide into two forces, even if both forces in the armed alliance participated.

Noh looked at the battlefield that had begun, and the Slavs of the Heroic Tribe had swung their great axes and slashed at the swordsmen who were short and thin to them in front of them.

But the beastly Slavs were so clumsy that they were easily dodged by the nimble swordsmen, and then swung their swords behind them in flashy moves, and the scene was once very dazzling.

The Slavs, though straightforward, knew that their attacks were a bit slow, and these swordsmen were cunning, never confronting them head-on, but despicably sneaking up from the flanks and from behind.

The way of the battlefield lies in trickery.

The ghostly attacks of the Assassins were effective, and many of the hulking Slavs were wounded by their swords.

Although they have rough skin and thick flesh, they have always allowed their wounds to return to the west sooner or later.

In the face of restraint in the way of attack, the stupid big man had no choice, and the rugged man in the lead covered his left arm, which was flowing bright red, and was unwilling to let the other Slavs who were also injured leave the place to heal.

The battle came and went quickly, and it was over in a few minutes.

Nuo and Ti hid in the shadows and watched the whole process quietly, although the battle was not small, but fortunately the scope of the battle did not affect them, so in the end they were not discovered.

Noh looked at it, beckoning Ti to quietly walk around the area, walking deeper from other directions.

On the way, Nou spoke his judgment.

"Perhaps these swordsmen did not possess true chivalry, and they may have tried to join the Knights of Dusk, but they were seen through by Captain Herman's eyes, and in the end they had to settle for the Rogue Wanderers.

Perhaps it was the treacherous ways of these swordsmen that made the strong men of the hero tribe feel unhappy, which was very different from their straightforward philosophy, so the conflict between the two sides continued to intensify, and finally evolved into a situation where they were about to fight when they met. ”

Ty was well aware of this, and she had had the experience of dissociating herself from and even living with the knights, who made her feel close to them, because the knights of the Dusk Knights were inherently indistinguishable from the loyal knights she had come into contact with in the army.

But having just watched the Wanderers' swordsmen fight the Slavs, she couldn't tell from any aspect that they had been knights.

Perhaps, as Nou said, these swordsmen never really integrated chivalry into the depths of their hearts, so as soon as they arrived in the outside world, their true nature was revealed.

It is worth mentioning that the reputation of the drifters among the major armed organizations is not very good, and there are not a lot of burning, killing and looting.

On the contrary, it is the Hero Tribe, which seems to be the first to provoke the battle, but in the eyes of the outside world, the Hero Tribe never does anything that threatens the common people, and often distributes the prey they capture to the hungry poor, worthy of the word "hero".

Violence is at the heart of the Slavs, but there is goodness hidden in their hearts.

"Hmph, these swordsmen are really disgraceful to the knights."

Ti couldn't help but scold angrily, she also had a lot of respect for knights in her heart, otherwise she wouldn't have easily chosen to believe them when she saw Anna's team for the first time, and it was the retro knight armor that gave her the reason to choose to believe.

Nuo shook his head helplessly, real knights are not casual and can be done, the core members of the Dusk Knights, that is, those knights with chivalry, are actually not many in number, only two or three hundred, and more are recruited supernumerary personnel.

After all, with two or three hundred people, no matter how capable of fighting and well-equipped, they could not compete with the crowd tactics of tens of thousands of others, and how could they be called the third largest armed organization and become a backbone of the armed alliance.

Although the Knights of Dusk take the route of elite soldiers, focusing on cultivating those real knights, they also conduct selection and assessment for the supernumerary personnel who joined later, hoping to select more talents from them to strengthen the vitality.

"Don't worry about them, let's do a reconnaissance mission first, otherwise the other knight squad waiting for news on the periphery should also be in a hurry."

Note said that taking care of the task at hand was the most important task for them at the moment.

Ty shook his head, leaving all his flying thoughts behind.

The two cautiously continued to probe into the depths.

Due to the huge movement of the battle just now, many insects, snakes, birds and beasts in the nearby forest were awakened, and the two of them needed to observe whether there was an accident that hit others, and they also had to take into account the poisonous insect attack on the ground.

This forest on the outskirts of the city is also untouched and is in a relatively pristine state.

After groping for nearly half an hour, Noh spotted the wind and grass in a small clearing in front of him.

He hurriedly gestured to Ty, who was also bent forward, and the two quickly stopped, found a tree thick enough to hug each other, and hid.

Nuo gestured to Ti with his eyes, and the two of them had a clear heart, and Ti quickly came to his senses.

Right next to the two of them, there was also a small team of only two or three people observing.

The team seemed to have been here for a long time, keeping their attention on the area not far away, not noticing Noodle's arrival.

If it weren't for Nuo's astuteness and strong enough perception, it would have been difficult for him to find these few people who were hidden in the night.

Following the direction of the trio's observations, No's perspective was locked to the northeast.

It was a few figures that were easy to ignore and fall asleep if they didn't pay attention, they seemed to wrap themselves in hatred, and their whole bodies were shrouded in darkness, but none of them snored.

Figures are secondary, and the cart they lean on is important!

Noh and Ti glanced at each other, and felt that it was not simple.

There must be something strange about something that can be stared at by a group of people for so long.

At this moment, the figure woke up at the same time like a puppet, and a faint shadow swayed.
