The Eighteen Clans were just beginning to prepare for an attack, and Finks had already rushed back to the Crown Fortress with the news. Lydia immediately summoned Nick, the young man, and Mira for a military meeting.

The proprietress sat in the corner with a worried face, and everyone could see that she was still very frightened in the face of the huge challenge of the eighteen tribes.

"I heard that you were once a saint of the desert?" Maya brought a pot of milk tea, "I've heard about your sacrifice to assassinate the Ironbeard Pirate, it's really admirable." ”

The proprietress lifted the lower part of the mask slightly and took a sip of milk tea. Seeing the corners of her mouth, there was a wry smile, "It's just that an incompetent woman can think of a stupid solution, if it weren't for that person, I would have been a corpse." ”

Maya shook her head, "I've heard Finks say that Master Buxiao was originally a mysterious person who lived in seclusion. If it weren't for your sacrifice that moved him, he wouldn't have come out to lead the Red Pavilion. ”

The proprietress sighed, "His original idea was just to find a place to settle us down in the Scarlet Leaf Forest. Then he could go back and live in seclusion. ”

Maya was a little surprised, "So in his philosophy, the city we're in now is just 'settled'?" ”

The proprietress looked at Lydia who was setting up the sand table, her eyes were full of appreciation and pity, "His thoughts are not easy to understand, and since I met Lydia, no one can understand his blueprint." Many times we just have to follow along, and even have to go against our own judgment. ”

"Oh," Maya smiled slightly, "like you're going to fight the Eighteen Tribes now?" ”

The proprietress nodded, "Hamid has gathered eighteen tribes, and the momentum is huge, I'm really a little worried. ”

Maya had a confident expression and said, "Hamid is just a guy who swaggers and deceives under the banner of the emperor, and there are no people under him who can be used. It's okay to scare people, but it's still far from fighting. ”

The proprietress smiled dumbly, "Girl, you know very little about the eighteen tribes, although the number of tribes is not large, but all of them are fierce warriors: Dennis, Nabino, and Heru are all fierce generals among the leaders; Morip and Msta are highly skilled and popular, and they are not easy to deal with. ”

Maya pulled out a page from her bosom, "Although the eighteen tribes sound like a lot, there are a few tribes whose population has withered. The wolf king Loxia and the desert ghost Ramesus have both been defeated, and the twin hammer Ryan has been killed. There are only ten people left who deserve attention. ”

The proprietress looked at it, and it turned out to be a detailed list. Needless to say, this was naturally quietly recorded by Maya during a previous military meeting.

Maya whispered, "Jamie is cowardly and greedy, Heru is a bully, Cabal thinks of himself as high, and Dennis is uninhibited, these people can't be a force at all; And although Morip and Mta are serious, they are not valued by Issam. The so-called alliance can be broken by blowing a bomb. ”

The proprietress didn't expect the little girl in front of her to understand such a subtle strategy, and she was speechless at once.

"Then it's settled." Lydia's voice suddenly came, interrupting the proprietress in her train of thought. I saw that many ravines had been drawn on the sand table at some point, and many wooden sticks had been inserted.

Lydia smiled triumphantly, "Who said they could only attack, it's time for us to change this time." ”

.

The scorching sun spread over the camp of the eighteen tribes. The drums of the front camp sounded, and then in response, the reverberating war drums also came from the middle and rear camps.

Amid the rumbling drums, the leader of the Isam League stood on a high platform and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, the time for battle has come. ”

His voice resounded through the clear sky, as if arousing everyone's inner fighting spirit. The leaders stood on either side with a look of excitement and determination to be ready for battle.

The Isam leader's hand was raised, signaling that the drumming had stopped, and the surroundings fell silent. The silence seemed to make the atmosphere even more tense, and everyone gathered their energy, waiting for the next word from the alliance leader.

"Now, it's time to show our fangs!" Issam's voice was full of power. The sound of the horn sounded appropriately, as if to set off his identity and power.

It's just that......

Issam raised his hand again, but the sound of the horn did not stop. This made him a little annoyed, and just as he was about to call out the soldier in charge of the drum and scold him, he heard a herald rush over in a rage, "Report, it's not good! ”

"What's there to panic about?" Issam was angry, grabbed a scimitar in his hand and wanted to kill people. Unexpectedly, the herald shouted loudly: "The army of the Red Pavilion has come here!" ”

"What?" It's as if he has been punched head-on. He was still thinking about sending troops to attack the Red Pavilion, but he didn't expect that the opposite side had already hit the door?

Seeing that Issam was stammering, Jamie snickered a few times below, and Shi Shiran stood up and shouted: "Since they are here, which leader is willing to fight out?" ”

He said it so beautifully.

You must know that he has just received the title of pioneer, and it stands to reason that he and Nabino should be the first to fight. Obviously, he knew that the danger of facing the enemy was extremely high, so this voice was equivalent to throwing out a difficult task.

The other party came suddenly, and he didn't know what the situation was, and the other clan leaders were silent. Only Dennis, who had always been unruly, stood up with a long-handled axe, "It's just a war, what's so scary, I'll go and see the situation." ”

So saying, he put on his leather armor, mounted an alpaca, and rushed out of the tribe's camp with eight hundred men and horses. As soon as he set up a formation and wanted to confront him, he was taken aback by the appearance of the opposite side.

The Red Pavilion was all in full battle, and Lydia stood majestically in front of the formation on a landed bird with a spear in hand, and Nick, the young man, and Mira beside her were also fully armed. The morale of the generals was high, the soldiers were in high spirits, the armor was like fish scales, and the swords, guns, swords and halberds shone in the sun.

Dennis didn't expect the military appearance on the other side to be so neat, and he was already a little timid in his heart. I had no choice but to blow out the cowhide just now, so I had no choice but to go out with an alpaca and an axe, and call the main general on the opposite side to answer.

Lydia came out with a spear in her hand and asked, "Are you Isam?" ”

She didn't know the people of the eighteen tribes, so Buxiao once made a list for her, which detailed the characteristics, habitual weapons, and personality traits of each leader. Among them, there are exactly two people who use axes.

One is Dennis and the other is Issam.

"Won't you, 'princess', stay in the castle and take a nap and come here to die?" Dennis scoffed, "You deserve to fight the Issam Leader too?" ”

Lydia smiled, "You're not Isam, then go back, I'm not interested in a rookie like you." ”

Perhaps this was not a mockery from Lydia's mouth, but when Dennis, who was conceited and arrogant, he immediately became furious, and rushed towards Lydia with an axe.

"Having said it, I'm not interested in rookies." Lydia shook her spear head, and in an instant, a ball of spear appeared, and it was hula and covered Dennis's face.

Dennis's long-handled axe spins like a windmill, "Your tricks are useless to me!" ”

With that, he broke the shadow of the spear with an axe, picked up the axe and slashed at Lydia's head.

"Yes." Lydia looked unaware, and turned the chocobo with a smirk. Just when Dennis thought she was going to turn around and run away, she didn't expect her gun to spin out of thin air and slam into Dennis's left rib.

This pole is loud and powerful. Dennis didn't dare to underestimate the enemy, so he had to hold up his axe with both hands to block.

Syllable!

Lydia's blow hit the axe handle, but it made Dennis's hands tingle, and she almost swept him off the alpaca.

"Awesome." Dennis adjusted his stance and was about to rush forward and fight Lydia again. Suddenly, I felt that the alpaca under my crotch was motionless, and when I looked closely, I realized that the alpaca had been stupid by the attack just now.

Dennis kicked it twice, trying to wake it up, but he didn't expect the alpaca to fall to the ground with a pop of limbs, but it knocked Dennis to his head.

Lydia sat on the chocobo and couldn't help but laugh, "You rookie, how can you ride such a mount?" ”

Dennis got up from the desert with a disgraced face and snorted, "This brute has been hungry for a few days lately, and it just happened to make you a bargain." ”

"Since you think I picked up the bargain......" Lydia suddenly got up and rolled down from the chocobo, "Then I'll come down and play with you for a while." ”

Dennis looked at the woman in front of him in surprise and clenched his hands on the tomahawk. With a loud shout, he rushed forward quickly, and struck with an axe like a violent wind.

After Lydia shot the spear in her hand and easily parried Dennis's attack, her body was already in the air, and in an instant, she stabbed Dennis's head with five moves.

"Another trick?" Dennis calmly swung a barrier with his tomahawk, as if trying to block Lydia's attack. But he never expected that Lydia's fifth move would change into a sixth move.

The spear struck, and the target was not Dennis's head and limbs, but the center of the circle where he spun his tomahawk.

With a crisp sound, Dennis only felt that something had hit his wrist, and then the long-handled battle axe in his hand had already flown out of his hand and landed far away.

Dennis was stunned and tried to draw his knife, only to see that the tip of Lydia's spear was already at his throat.

"Surrender." Lydia's voice was calm and calm, as if she had already known the outcome of the battle.

Dennis gritted his teeth and eventually raised his hands.

"Behold, the traitor!" Jamie's voice suddenly came from the military formation.

Witnessing Dennis's surrender, Jamie found another opportunity to encroach on other tribes and screamed excitedly, "Rush up, kill that woman, kill that traitor!" ”

In this world, if the belligerents follow the rules of knightly combat, the loser may not die. But if you deliberately break the rules like Jamie, usually the loser is killed immediately.

Dennis stared at Jamie with wide eyes, and before he could speak, the horde of the clan had already rushed out.

Unfortunately, they didn't rush a few steps, Nick waved the command flag behind him, and several crossbow carts poked their heads out of the Red Pavilion Army. With Nick's order, thousands of arrows suddenly shot out in the Red Pavilion army, and as soon as those tribal armies rushed out, they were so frightened that they immediately retracted.

Lydia held the chocobo in one hand and held her spear against Dennis, "Let's go, go to my place for a drink." ”
