Chapter 11: Legendary

Eddard and the others had already been half a day's journey from the village at this time, and even if they set off in the starry night, it was unlikely that they would be faster than the Ingill troops.

When they came to the village, they saw in the distance that there was already a fire.

The three of them galloped along the grove towards the village burned by the Ingirs, and Ed and Andre searched their field of vision for possible enemies while keeping an eye on Deria's movements, lest she rush in regardless of a single move.

The night wind was not very strong tonight, and the fire had not yet fully spread, but the energy of destruction was also coming from the air, and the heat wave was coming closer, and several wooden houses at the main fire point creaked, and it was obvious that they were about to burn down.

Ed listened intently, but there was no human voice except for the crackling of wood burning in the flames.

"It seems that the other party didn't stay here for long, and should have left. ”

The other two also came to the same conclusion after observing, after the safety was temporarily guaranteed, Delia ran over alone without waiting for the actions of her companions, and it was possible to find a few survivors if she went to search and rescue earlier, and Ed and the two also rushed into the village to search for possible survivors of the disaster, although there was very little hope.

However, what shocked me was that the bodies of the fallen bodies were lying on the road, and the frightened faces of the deceased were reflected in the pool of blood under the firelight, and there was a dead silence everywhere except that the fire was still burning.

Ed broke into several houses in a row and didn't find any living people, and when he looked up, he found that Andre separated the two as soon as he entered the village, and ran directly to his own house, this guy still didn't worry about his relatives after all.

Suddenly there was a shout from Di Lia not far away, Ed had always had the intention to keep a short distance from her, and when he heard the sound, he rushed over as soon as possible, and entered the house where Di Lia was, only to see her face covered with ashes, she pointed to a man on the ground and said: "He is still alive, let's carry him out, the fire is about to burn." ”

Ed glanced at the inside of the house, and his heart couldn't help but tighten.

On the table lay a disorganized female corpse, with a large hole in her head, obviously not alive, this woman's face Ed did not look closely, vaguely recognized as a beautiful young woman in the village.

Looking at the lower half of the man's pants on the ground, hanging loosely, a large bag was smashed out of his head, but he was breathing evenly and looked like he was in a coma.

Ed put the other party on his shoulder with a copy of his hand, such a big man is not too difficult to carry, the body after the energy transformation of the engraving is already the limit of ordinary people, the peak of the black iron level, naturally extraordinary.

Ed took Delia out of the burning hut with his other hand, and said to her, "I'm watching this guy, you go on searching, be careful!"

Delia shook her head, "No, I have the power to protect myself, you should be careful!"

Saying that, she flashed the wooden staff in her hand, but this thing didn't look like a good weapon in hand-to-hand combat, Ed was not at ease, and persistently handed the dagger to her, and the girl saw that her companion insisted on taking it obediently, and without further delay, she turned around and ran to another house to search and rescue.

Ed carried the unconscious man and walked out of the village, finding several more rooms along the way, in which there were either a few corpses or people empty.

Suddenly, Ed threw down the person on his shoulders heavily, and unceremoniously tied the man tightly to a big tree with a rope, it seems that the other party's identity is suspicious, and it is very likely that he is the initiator of this qiē tragedy, and Ed naturally will not be polite to him.

After double-checking the tie-up, he turned back and went back to help.

As time went by, the fire gradually increased, and although the village was relatively wealthy, the farmers' houses were no larger than wooden deconstructed, and there were few real stone huts, so the fire burned quickly.

After a few moments, the trio had to abandon their search, and the fire was accompanied by thick smoke, and even when they covered their mouths and noses with a damp cloth, it was still very uncomfortable for them, and it was clear that there would be no survivors in the village.

Gathered again at the edge of the woods, some distance from the burning village, so there was no need to worry about the fire spreading, after some smoke and fire, the faces of the three were stained with black soot, and then sweat washed out the traces, everyone looked very wolf.

Deria's eyes were red and swollen, and she didn't know if it was because she was smoked or because she saw too many victims.

Ed hesitated and reached out and gently patted her shoulder for comfort.

Remembering something, Delia handed him back the blade she held tightly in her hand.

Ed didn't take the dagger that the other party returned, "You keep it first, I don't lack this thing, I remember that there is a stream at the end of the village, you go wash it first, and Andre and I will go over after interrogating this guy." ”

"No, there is no need to take care of me like this, I will judge him with you, and if it is really as we think, these are indeed the crimes he has committed, then he will have to pay the price. The girl looked fiercely at the man on the ground, and her firm tone was unquestionable.

Ed and Andre glanced at each other, and each saw the relief in each other's eyes, regardless of whether Delia was an ordinary shepherdesss before, but now her heart has been tempered and strengthened, and it is necessary to use the harshest means to deal with enemies, and too much mercy will only be self-defeating.

They don't want to kill the enemy on the battlefield and the girl around them still harbors unnecessary kindness, which will be a disaster for their companions.

At this moment, Ed and Andre are both very happy to witness the growth of their companions, at least proving that they chose to follow and help the girl before.

Deria was not carried away by hatred, the possible enemies in front of her certainly needed to be interrogated immediately, but the companions around her were more important than the enemies.

She turned to Andre and asked, "Are your family all right?"

Andrei nodded, he went back to check before, his house had already been empty, including some worthless but very commemorative gadgets were packed and taken away, it didn't look like the enemy had taken them captive, it should be that soon after the three of them left, his father took the whole family to Ovaré as planned.

"I also went to the council chamber to take a look, there was no one there, but the old knight's armor that you returned earlier, Eddard, is gone, and a lot of marching supplies have been lost, most likely by the Ingiers. ”

Although the old knight's armor was made of precious metals, it was a treasure-level, and Ed didn't think about it again after returning it, so he naturally didn't care much, and they were well supplied, and the prisoners in front of him were more worthy of care than those.

None of the three present had any practical experience with interrogation techniques. However, Ed remembers seeing the information provided by the engraving before, including military aspects.

He took a moment to search for it, and after finding it, he transferred it to his own mind, and with Andre, who had seen old Bandy execute many times, they played a few tricks to find out the man's true identity and behavior.

As inferred from the scene seen at the scene before, this man was not only a member of Ingier's troops, but also when he was looting the village, he had a brain on the spot, and slipped out despite the order of the troops to march quickly, trying to take the opportunity to commit violence against the woman, but was accidentally knocked unconscious by resistance, and then he was left in the village by his companions until he was found by Delia.

The interrogation process was undoubtedly brutal, confirming the identity of the other party, and Ed no longer showed mercy.

Due to the information contained in the engraving, Eddard showed a skill that surprised both Andre and Delia, how could he do anything, and he got the answer to the question so easily!

At the same time, Ed once again confirmed that after he fell into a state of violence, he had no mercy or sympathy for the enemy, and after inflicting the torture provided in a document, he found out a lot of information from the other party.

In the process, even Andrei looked away several times, but the uninterrupted, resounding screams of the tortured people through the real grove were still so piercing that they continued to ravage his nerves.

However, what is surprising is that Delia insisted on watching the whole torture process, although her face was worse than Andre's, but it was still worthy of admiration.

It wasn't until Ed felt that there was nothing left to ask about it, and with their consent, he pulled out Golmo and freed the captive.

"Thank you!" these were the last words of the poor man's words, but the guilty's regret and apology afterwards did not change anything, nor did it make Ed and the others have the idea of letting him go, and some sins must be paid for since they were committed.

"The battle of Tongguò captured an unrefined psionic regiment. "The mind is engraved with a hint.

The three of them silently came to the creek to freshen up and tidy up, and the gurgling stream moved away with ashes and blood.

The atmosphere was not very good, and after a lot of busyness, they did not rescue a single person after all, but only witnessed an atrocity committed by the Ingiers.

Andrei, who was still older in this situation, was the first to break the silence, he took out a simple map and spread it out, and said to the two of them.

"Now, according to my speculation, the city of Auvaré has indeed been attacked, but the strong defenses and reinforcements outside the city have prevented the Inghirs from taking it quickly, so they have sent the same force we saw before to attack the supply hub in the rear, which is the town of Murray. ”

With André's point, Ed and Deria saw a small dot on the map by the light of the distant fire, "And our village is just a small stone on the way. ”

With the swipe of the opponent's finger, you can see that the enemy's march route is exactly the small village where Ed and the others are.

"So the old knight only killed the vanguard of the other side before? This team we met was out day and night, obviously in a hurry and didn't want to expose itself, so they set fire to the village after slaughtering the villagers, but did not choose to camp here to rest. Ed thought and added.

"No, I guess what we caught is that this night raider isn't the main force to attack the supply hub, because this alone is probably not enough to shake the defenses of Murray Town, and lo and behold, I think their goal should be to sweep away another bigger stumbling block in their path, which is here, Fort Amera. After all, Andre is the son of the village chief, and he has seen the market in the big city-states, so he thinks deeper.

Ed and Deria followed Andre's gesture and saw a small pass on the map blocking the Ingil's path to Murray.

Ed looked at the map, and recalled the enemy's movements in the past two days against the information provided by the inscription, and after a little thought, he understood that indeed, if you want to take the supply hub and completely cut off the support of Ovarei City from the rear, you must let the army pass through the checkpoint, and from the map, other roads are not suitable for large-scale marches.

At this time, the military is actually inferior to the development of Ed's original world, but in general, it is still important to win by chance, and the Roland Kingdom uses Murray Town as a rear supply hub, and builds an Amera Fort here to protect against enemy attacks, so it must be difficult to cross this fortress, and other roads are either very dangerous or time-consuming, and it is difficult to cover them.

Sending troops to attack the rear supply is to win by surprise, and pulling out the fortress that blocks the way from the front is to coincide, unless there is a heavy invention of military force, otherwise no matter how powerful the general is, it is impossible to cross the enemy's defense line in one step, and he can fight wherever he wants, and the road must be taken step by step.

Looking at the map for a while, neither Ed nor Andre continued to speak, as if that was the case.

"Since this group of Ingirs has adopted the method of marching at night and resting during the day, they just don't want to be discovered in advance, and they will attack and take Fort Amera in one fell swoop, which gives us a chance, right? Delia also quickly completed the overall analysis and made a decision.

Ed and Andre looked at each other and smiled bitterly, after all, it was not enough, and Delia pushed out the part that the two did not say.

The girl failed to stop the Ingirs from slaughtering the village, but at this moment she saw the possibility of sabotaging the enemy's plan to sneak attack the level, and Ed and they had no reason to stop it, and it seemed that the three of them would soon be involved in a bigger crisis.

The decision was made to rush to Ameraburg, and without caring about dealing with the aftermath of the village's victims, they hurried to set off again.

After hastily eating breakfast before dawn, they began to hurry again in the warm morning sun, and in order to remind Ameraburg to defend in advance, they had to rush to the front of each other during the day, although the other party was cavalry, but did not dare to march with great fanfare during the day, so there was still a chance.

The first journey was near the village, and Ed and André could barely make out the way, but after leaving for a long time, they had to rely on the shepherdess Dilia to lead the way.

It stands to reason that this neighborhood will not be familiar to Delia, but she can always choose a path from the woods that is close and easy to walk, as if she were helped.

Ed noticed that the shepherd's staff in the girl's hand seemed to be magical, and every time he encountered a fork in the road, Deria prayed for a while, and was able to use the wooden staff in his hand to point out the right path, so he concentrated on activating his heart's ability to engrave discernment.

"Found a legendary item, a shepherd's cane, and a ??? stat"

Ed was shocked in his heart, he didn't expect that the seemingly inconspicuous cane was actually a legendary-level treasure, one level higher than the two rare-level weapons on his body, it seems that Delia, as the son of the plane, is indeed not simple!

This matter was silently hidden in his heart, and the young man's heart did not have the slightest desire to rise, the stronger the companion, the better it was for him, if he saw a good thing and wanted to find an excuse to grab it, what was the difference between it and a robber.

I don't know what kind of IMBA attributes are attached to the legendary treasures.,Is it also attached to a curse?

Curiosity is inevitable, Ed couldn't help but look at all his two rare-level treasures, the Rose Spear is more scary due to the curse attached to it, he wrapped it up with a cloth to reduce the number of uses, and recently he has been using it as a crutch when he is in a hurry, and the more he uses it, the more he uses it, the more he uses it, and when he is fine, he is also learning some skills of making swords through Guò Mind Engraving, sturdiness and sharpness are the most practical attributes, and that curse is not painful for him for the time being, and can be used as a main weapon.

Just after the first day, Delia learned her position and that of the enemy by some miraculous means, and she told them that they had outnumbered the Ingir by this time.

Andrei has been keeping an eye on the map, and according to Delia, there is still half of the way to Amera Fort at this time, so to be on the safe side, it's best not to stop at night, and hurry up and walk more to buy more time.

Ed and Deria quickly agreed to the decision, neither of them wanted to give up halfway, and Deria waved her cane, and before the sun set, she pointed the head of the cane at the two of them with the last rays of light, and whispered a spell that seemed to be immature.

Ed felt a hint of anticipation when he saw the legendary cane in the girl's hand begin to glow, and Andre was amazed.

Soon, the spell ended, and Deria successfully activated the mysterious power, spreading the light on the staff evenly over the three of them.

"This is the radiance of the gods, which can help us dispel fatigue and increase stamina, but I am not proficient, but fortunately I was released the first time. Delia patted her chest with her hand and said happily to her surprised companion.

"This, this is. Andrei was obviously taken aback, the world's knight-level spiritual power is the only well-known supernatural ability, magic and magic only appear in fairy tales, and they are rarely seen by ordinary people, and Andrei has been in Ovaret for a few years, and he has no chance to foresee it.

In fact, thousands of years ago, the inheritance of magic disappeared from the continent, and only the alien races invading from the north knew how to use it, and the magic was rarely used in public since the war of the gods six hundred years ago, and after the merger of the gods, it was often only seen by high-level people in the church.

In addition, there are some mercenaries on the continent who can use these strange skills, but there are not many, and these are naturally not something that Andre can know, and his identity is limited, and what he knows more than Ed and others is also limited.

Ed felt his body and found that he was indeed more agile, and his legs were no longer sore after a day of traveling.

"It's another mysterious power, how many surprises will there be in this world!"
