There were already sentinels in the Red Pavilion who had spotted the fleeing children, who were shouting in the tribal dialect, and the sentinels couldn't understand what they were saying. As a last resort, he had to call Dennis and Nabino to come over to understand the situation.

When the children saw the leader of their tribe, they burst into tears. They spoke of the sacrifice in trembling voices, their eyes filled with endless grief and incomprehension.

Dennis and Nabino listened to the children's stories, their eyes glinting with anger. Their hands clenched into fists, and their hearts were filled with hatred for Issam.

"Chief, didn't you say that the eighteen tribes would be family? Why did the Isam League leader do this? ”

Their simple questions hurt Dennis and Nabinow. Perhaps it was then that they truly understood the lies of the Isam Alliance. The so-called family is just a pawn on his road to power, which can be discarded at any time.

"Issam betrayed us......" Dennis tried to explain, but in the eyes of the children, only curiosity and ignorance remained in the eyes of such a complicated matter.

Nabino was silent for a moment, and finally said, "First ask the princess to arrange food and lodging for them." ”

In the dark of night, the children's little hands led their trusty leader and left one after another. Maybe in their dreams tonight, they will forget their fears and fears, or they may have a long-lost dream.

……

The next morning, Lydia listened to Dennis's report in detail in the camp. Her brow furrowed, and her eyes were full of anger and dissatisfaction. She had always known that Issam was a careerist, but she didn't expect him to be so ruthless that even the children of his own people could be held hostage.

When Dennis mentions that Hotaru was hacked to death by Isam's guards in order to save the children, Mira, who has always been her enemy, can't help but exclaim.

Mixed emotions flashed in her eyes, and finally she reverently patted her chest in the interests of her clan and sighed, "This is an honorable soul, and it is my honor to have such an opponent before. ”

Lydia's face turned pale. She's not an irritable person, but Issam's actions pretty much hit her bottom line. She angrily slammed her fist next to the sand table, "Originally, I wanted to surround without fighting and reduce the casualties on both sides." But now, I've changed my mind. ”

She glared at the lone wolf mountain on the sand table, "Within three days, we must attack this place!" ”

General Nick muttered, "The cave location of Lone Wolf Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the enemy occupies the favorable terrain. The Finks girl also found out that there are many open and hidden castles near the entrance of the cave, and if you attack it, I am afraid it will be more difficult. ”

Lydia was full of unwillingness. She thought for a moment and suddenly asked, "Do you want us to do the trick that the Bard team played before?" ”

Bard Squad?

Dennis and Nabino were confused, but General Nick laughed, "That's a good idea, I'll arrange for Maya to prepare." ”

……

In the evening, Lydia had just had dinner. Suddenly, the shrill sound of gongs and drums resounded through the desert, and many soldiers shouted: "Oh no, the house is on fire!" ”

Several tents that served as kitchens were on fire, and the soldiers rushed to put out the fire. In the thick smoke, the animals in the livestock pens fled one after another.

In the night, the samurai hiding in the cave saw the fire at the foot of the mountain, and they all leaned out to see the excitement. When they saw so many livestock running out, their eyes lit up at once.

There is indeed water and food in the cave, but it is all pickled food that has been stored for many years. They can't remember the last time they had eaten fresh meat, but they just thought that these animals running around the mountains were like walking steaks, which made people salivate.

"Come up, come up." The warriors prayed in whispers, hoping that the gods' favor would lure a few of the blind and brainless creatures up the hill for them to feast on.

As if hearing their call, there were really a few white alpacas stumbling towards the mountain road.

The samurai were so excited that someone brought two dry straw poles and stretched them out of the bunker with a "ou cluck, ou cluck" sound from their mouths, calling the alpacas.

The alpacas seemed to heed, staggering in the direction of the cave. Watching them get closer and closer, the hearts of the samurai were beating faster and faster, and someone had already taken out the rope, tied a noose, and was eager to try.

Sou!

The noose landed firmly on the alpaca's neck, causing suppressed cheers from the samurai in the cave.

The alpaca seemed to be sleepwalking, completely unaware that it was strapped around its neck, and still staggered along. As the rope tightened, the alpaca stubbornly continued to walk slowly.

"Hurry, hurry!" The samurai who pulled the rope spoke urgently, and the strength in his hands unconsciously amplified a little. Suddenly, he pulled hard, only to hear a "pop", and the alpaca's head suddenly fell off.

How did the alpaca's head fall off?

The samurai were stunned for a moment.

Also at a loss was Maya.

She had been hiding in camouflage, pretending to be an alpaca, but suddenly her eyes were black and bright, and her upper body was suddenly exposed to the hillside.

Just when she was still hesitating, Eggers, who was playing the hind leg behind her back, had already pulled out her double knives, "What are you still doing in a daze, come on!" ”

As he spoke, Eggers flew up and pounced.

"Rush through the Bunker!" Bard pulled off his disguise, drew his spear and shouted. The members of the squad jumped up one after another, and a group of "alpacas" instantly turned into a group of tigers, let out an earth-shattering cry, and charged towards the enemy.

"What?" Before the soldier who had taken the alpaca's head came to his senses, a sledgehammer was already flying towards him. There was a bang, and only a pool of bloody corpses was left on the stone wall.

The samurai in the cave hurriedly sounded the alarm, but the assault team had already rushed through the firing range of the dark castle. Nacian also led a few soldiers to pile lit alpaca dung and straw outside the shooting holes of each bunker.

While several of the bunkers were smoked to the ground, Lydia's camp was filled with drums and trumpets, and a large group of men and horses rushed out like a tide.

"Go and inform the leader of the Isam League...... "An officer shouted at the top of his voice when he saw a chocobo swoop in his face, and a spear was as fast as lightning and flew him away.

Seeing this, the three or five samurai flew over at the same time, but saw that the spear instantly shook out seventeen or eighteen afterimages. With a few pops, several bloody holes opened in the chests of those warriors, and they instantly turned into several cold corpses.

"Get in!" Lydia leaps down from the chocobo and leads the charge.

As soon as he entered the hole, he saw a row of arrows coming at him. Lydia picked up a ball of spear and knocked the arrow down, and with a backhand shot, the barrel of the gun instantly stretched three or four meters, and stabbed into the stomach of a shooter.

The other shooters were stunned and tried to aim at Lydia, only to find that she had rushed to the front and stabbed her with a single shot.

There was a thud, and the man's shoulder blades were pierced, blood gushed out, and the whole person was nailed directly to the stone wall.

The rest of the people were still trying to stretch their bows, but suddenly they heard Nabino scream: "Do you still want to die for that villain?!" ”

The roar was like a thunderclap on the ground, and it shook the heads of the warriors. Then Nabino held the flaming stick, glaring at them fiercely: "You are all self-proclaimed warriors, look at what Issam has done?" ”

The eyes of the samurai dimmed instantly.

Dennis jumped onto a stone and shouted, "As a samurai, fight with honor." Issam has made a big mistake by killing innocent people, and he is trying to kill children who are not as tall as wheels - are you going to fight for such a villain?! ”

The warriors in the cave hesitated, and they trembled and slowly took a few steps back.

Dennis sneered, "Let your alliance leader come out!" Let's see if he has the guts to face me! ”

"You want to face me?" There was a low laugh from the cave, and Issam, with a gloomy face, slowly walked out of the depths of the cave with a sword in hand.

His vicious eyes glared at Dennis and then at Nabino, and a cruel smile appeared on his lips: "You two bastards...... You can actually attack here...... Then let me show you the power of His Highness Hamid's ultimate weapon! ”

Behind him stood twelve men in black, each holding a black flag in their hands. As their banner waved, the soul runes on the flag gradually emitted a bewitching color.

"Oh no, it's the 'Dementor Flag'!" Lydia hurriedly ordered her soldiers to take up a defensive position.

Wolf howl.

The samurai in the cave gradually lost their minds, and they even rushed to let out a wolf howl, their eyes turned blood-red, and their eyes were full of primitive wildness and murderous intent.

They have been controlled by the Dementor Banner and have become "Mad Warriors"!

Issam sneered: "Come on! Tear those enemies to shreds! ”

In the face of the tide of opponents, the Red Pavilion army was undaunted and quickly assembled a defensive formation to resist their attack. Lydia looked at the standard-bearers behind Issam from afar, knowing that it was the source of the soul art that controlled the samurai, and shouted to the warriors beside her, "Shoot those guys!" ”

"There are too many enemies to target!" There were soldiers shouting reports.

"Wait for me in a moment!" Lydia screamed and jumped into the berserker's pile. The spear swept and slashed a mad samurai to the ground, followed by a single shot that flew another swoop.

Her spear was as nimble as a viper, wailing everywhere she went, blood splattered, and the enemy troops in front of her fell in patches like wheat seedlings harvested at harvest time, and blood stained large swaths of the land red.

"Is there a chance now?" Lydia asked aloud as she brandished her spear against the madmen.

"Yes."

Lydia's movements froze suddenly.

Because the voice of the answer was so cold, it was like a frozen palm pinching everyone's heart.
