Chapter 7: Serving the Order
When I first arrived at the first gathering of the mercenary group, I saw that the head of Aidan, who was standing on the high platform, was already wearing equipment and was directing many mercenaries to divide the team.
"Is it really going to be launched?" Lista thought to herself, and then Captain Adan spoke
Adan "Schuked!" You lead your squad to the west of the ruins to intercept the fleeing werewolves. There is no problem. ”
"Nope"
Adan "Chebul! You are stationed at the entrance to the ruins, ready to support other squads. There is no problem. ”
"Nope"
Just between these two sentences, the hundred-dozen mercenaries have already lined up in order, although this has a lot to do with the usual training, but Lista still admires the courage and fruitfulness of Captain Aidan, if he wants to become a knight, this is probably a compulsory course.
"Huh? How come I've never trained," Lista asked, finding her suspicious points
Adan "Marley! Is Marley still coming?! ”
Marley: "Coming, coming, I've just arrived" Seeing that the helmet was tightly fitted, Marley hurried over.
Adam pointed at Marley and shouted, "The Knights of the Kingdom have entered the ruins with their troops. Marley, you and Fiona are the vanguard of the two teams in the search for the ruins of the North, and you must arrive before anyone else. If the werewolves regard the Knights as enemies...... And to fight the werewolves head-on, that's your fault. Just go! You'll have to get to the search site before anyone else! ”
Marley: "Yes!!!!! ”
Fiona "Yes!!! ”
With that, Marley and Fiona led the team and prepared to march towards the ruins of the north.
Marley: "Recruit, what are you doing, you're still watching the show, you forgot that you are my subordinate?" ”
"Huh?" Lista had indeed forgotten that when he first joined the mercenary group, Captain Ai Dan assigned himself to Marley, accompanied him with a smile, and immediately followed "here"
Marley: "Hey, recruit. Come here before you go. ”
Lista: "Huh? Regiment.... Captain"
Marley: "Be careful all the way. ... I'm sorry for what happened yesterday. Alas, I'm not like your predecessors either. I know you're strong and you should do well. Okay, let's go! ”
Although Lista thinks it's nothing, I have to say that Deputy Head Marley is really a straightforward character.
Marley's troops, numbering about sixty or seventy men, soon arrived at the training ground, and Marley instructed everyone to adjust their condition carefully. At this time, a huge figure appeared in front of everyone in the mercenary group, and Ma Li, who had his back to the huge figure, immediately drew his weapon and turned around to confront him, and was dumbfounded as soon as he turned around.
Lista was also dumbfounded, thinking that the strong man he had met in Kuhan before was already huge enough, but he didn't expect that this person's figure was even more exaggerated.
This giant, dark wheat-colored skin and bare upper body, is about nearly three meters tall, and even the width is as wide as three ordinary people, several wide belts make this giant carry a pillar with a totemic style, although the body is scary, but the facial features are very simple.
"Brothers, I heard that you are going to crusade against the wolf clan over there"
As soon as the giant spoke, the thick and mellow voice was neither fast nor slow, it was very honest, and it made everyone let down their guard, and Marley directly put away his weapon.
Marley "Well, what's the matter, Warrior"
"Hello brothers, my name is Karui, I am a giant clan from the center of the continent, and I have traveled in search of balance in the world."
Mercenary group "......."
Karui continued, "I found evil werewolves in a few surrounding villages, and they had already fled by the time I arrived, so let me join you..."
"Good" Marley, who understood the meaning, agreed directly before Karui finished speaking, and blamed Kalou's size for giving people a sense of security.
Karui "Thank you, brother"
People's first impressions are too important, so far, no one in Marley's decisive way of letting Karui enter the team temporarily feels inappropriate, and even many mercenaries are even more relieved to see Karui in the team.
"You, unconsciously, this.... The giant's weapon doesn't look like the weapon we deduced from the last time we saw the werewolf corpses here. Fiona was talking close to the Lista novel.
Lista also turned his head and whispered back "If this is the case, I don't think there is a problem at all"
"Go ahead, start now, go on alert"
Everyone in the mercenary group was ready for battle, and quickly approached the ruins in the north, at this time, Mari and Fiona were full of cold sweat, because there were werewolf corpses and traces of the knights' battles all the way here, it seemed that it was still a step too late, and the thought of returning to the mercenary group would definitely be scolded by Aidan, it was enough for Mari and Fiona to shudder.
Marley and Fiona looked at each other
Fiona "Begin to search, but not disperse"
Entering the interior of the northern ruins, the corpses of the knights had already begun to appear, but in this huge ruin, except for the corpses all over the ground, it was quiet and terrifying. From the corpses of the knights on the ground, it can be seen that the werewolves' methods are extremely cruel, and the dead knights' heads are either trampled on to pieces, or the knights' internal organs are exposed to the air, and even a few wolf corpses' hands, although broken, are still pulling the intestines of a knight. The sun was shining brightly, but after shining on the ruins in the north, the ruins looked particularly gloomy, and through the sun's radiation, the internal organs exposed on the road began to emit a foul and disgusting smell.
All the members of the mercenary group have been severely trained by Captain Aidan, but in the face of this kind of scene, there are also a few veterans who can't help but want to feel sick to their stomachs, but everyone tries to keep silent during the search. Beams at the top of the ruins and several large enclosures block out most of the sunlight, and wild leaves on the stone pillars absorb the water vapor evaporated by the sunlight, forming dew on the tips of the leaves
Bite... Boom... Bite... Boom...
The dew dripped down a pool of blood on the ground, making a sound that drained people's courage, and the further they went, the fewer werewolf corpses there were, but the more corpses there were, and several knights who kept their faces full of werewolf weapons, and the whole head could no longer see who it was.
Fiona, Marley, and Lista are all battle-hardened warriors, but seeing this scene, they really underestimated the cruelty of the werewolf from the bottom of their hearts, seeing that on a pillar that required the size of three people to be embraced, two knights were stripped of their clothes and armor, their intestines were pulled out by the werewolf, and they were tied to the pillar with the pulled intestines, and the white stone pillar behind them had been dyed blood, and it can be seen from the expressions of these two knights that this was not the only one who was killed to commit such atrocities, But...... While they were alive...... They were wounded to death.
The Giants are a peace-loving race, they are jealous and hateful, although Karui did not say a word when he saw this, but the thick green tendons on his head expressed his anger, and Fiona was so frightened that she hid her face and took a half step back, Marley and Listatsu began to worry about the strength of the werewolves, according to common sense, the strength of the Knights is much higher than that of the Mercenary Regiment, otherwise Marley would not have worried that the Knights would have robbed the mercenary regiment of its honor, but since they entered the ruins of the north, the dead personnel of the Knights along the way, The total number of mercenaries in the mercenary group has been exceeded.
But the most dangerous thing is always from the unknown, since you can't see the werewolf when you go so deep, is it all killed, what about Deyun? Or is it that the Knights are finished, then.. And where are werewolves hiding? These questions not only became questions, but also became the murderers who killed the morale of the mercenaries, everyone stepped over a corpse, slowly continued to move forward, and after turning over a few ruins, several mercenaries finally couldn't bear the pressure in their hearts and sat directly on the ground, and the Gailian in the middle was directly spread on the ground trembling, and Ma Li didn't blame them for seeing these people, after all, this kind of scene, a few people have seen it.
Marley walked up to them and said in a low voice, "Give you a mission, return immediately, inform Captain Adan of the situation here, and ask for support"
Several people were eager to return, and after receiving such a task, they ran to report to the ruins.
The mercenary group continued to move forward, and just after passing through a wall, a huge, dilapidated square with tens of meters of walls on both sides came into everyone's eyes, combined with the scene they saw before, around this square, except for the broken weapons and armor, there were no corpses everywhere, but, in the middle of this square, a figure knelt there.
"That's it.... Lord Deyun.... Lord Deyun is moving, she's still alive," one of the mercenaries exclaimed.
When several mercenaries saw that someone was still alive, they ran over without waiting for Marley to stop them.
Marley "Fool, this is a trap" For a veteran, he knows at a glance that this is a trap, the cruelty of the werewolf, it will not leave a living mouth, this square is really empty, and deliberately put the living in the most conspicuous place, and the high walls on both sides of the square really can't give people a sense of security.
By the time the mercenaries heard Marley's shout, they had already run to Deyun, it was too late, and with the sound of neat bowstrings, a rain of arrows shot from the high walls on both sides to the middle of the square.
"Huh!!"
Just as they were about to grieve, the giant Karui spun and threw the pillar on his back, the huge pillar swirling in the air, and when the rain of arrows was about to reach the heads of several mercenaries, the pillar also flew over their heads, intercepting all the arrows.
The rescued mercenaries immediately collapsed on the ground, then abandoned their weapons and quickly crawled back into the group.
"Thank you. Thank you, Warrior" Marley was still nervous just now, these were the brothers who got along with him day and night, and as the deputy head of the Kablaan mercenary group, his first goal was to ensure that every mercenary could complete the mission alive.
"Whew!!!!"
At this time, at the end of this square, the werewolves hiding behind the stone pillars saw that the sneak attack was fruitless, and howled, and all the werewolves stood up from behind the stone pillars, and the werewolves who were lying in ambush on the high walls on both sides also dropped their ropes and slid down.
Fiona: "This number has completely suppressed us"
"Hah" Marley roared, reminding the stunned crowd that "there is no turning back"
Marley "Afraid!! ”
"Not afraid !!!"
"Array !!!"
