Margaret became surprised but excited, as a berserker, she couldn't sit still for an instant, it was difficult to hide the high momentum of the fighting spirit, her right hand subconsciously stretched out to the fishbone bayonet on the table, and her steady breathing accelerated slightly.

"Where did you get in?"

"Coming from the southeast side of the village! However, according to the report of the front-line guards, this group of estimated 100-man troops was led by two leaders, and it seems that it was not Fortes himself! ”

"Two? Could it be the two guys who demonstrated to the Celestial Snake Clan in the first place? By the way, what happened to the villagers? ”

"Evacuate for now! But...... Due to the suddenness of the other party, some villagers unfortunately died. ”

"yes......"

The sad retribution seems to have somewhat suppressed the fighting spirit in Margaret's heart, and the sad emotions exaggerate the feelings.

Gradually transformed into anger.

"Let's go!"

"Compliance...... Yes, sir! ”

Holding the fishbone bayonet tightly, the back of the sassy heroine quickly disappeared into the conference room.

The Fish-Man camp is similar to the Celestial Snake Clan, with the same living habits and a naturally similar environment. The camp, which should have been quiet and cool, is now littered with corpses, fires erupting, hot winds blowing the battlefield, and the burning sensation stimulates the sweat glands.

There were wails everywhere, and the soldiers of the fish-people were on par with the other party's coffin army. Whether it was the coffin army that was too proud, or the fish-man soldiers who were brave and good at fighting, the battle situation was unexpectedly deadlocked.

It's a bit of a stretch to say that there is a stalemate, but in fact, the Fish-People still have the upper hand.

"Cut me! The Medic then casts a buff spell! ”

The officers who had been cautiously advised to set up the battle were particularly heroic, and the silver-white broadsword in their hands was covered in blood and flesh, while still calmly giving instructions with the tide of battle.

Not far away, another officer displayed excellent magic.

"Brothers! Surround this guy, this guy is the leader, kill him to deter the enemy! ”

The figure that was also dyed red was soon surrounded by more than a dozen fish-man soldiers, and the lonely figure was pointed at multiple bayonets at the same time, and it was difficult to escape from this fish-man wall.

However, it is difficult to solve the officers with just a small siege.

With contemptuous eyes and a sneer, the officer looked around, smiled and inhaled—

- 'The Gospel of Satan'

In a trance, the fish-man soldiers seemed to hear some kind of whispering, whispering like a whisper, and they were speaking a language they had never heard before, their eyes became hollow, and their whole bodies lost strength, as if they had entered some kind of realm.

In reality, the soldiers have long been dismantled and shredded by lone officers.

"It's not worth mentioning at all."

The officer chuckled contemptuously.

"Are you done with it over there?"

The officer on the other end shouted, asking his fellow officers who had just broken the siege with ease.

"It's done, but the protagonist hasn't appeared yet? I guess it's an escape. ”

"Don't worry, I don't believe a leader would run away alone in defiance of the death of his companions, at least ......"

Before the words fell, the galloping figure suddenly fell rapidly from the sky to the ground, and the moment it landed, it caused a lot of vibration, and the surrounding sea of fire was dispersed by this impact, and therefore soared high, as if it was cheering for the debut.

The two officers were frightened by the uninvited guest, and the dust caused by the landing took away their sight, and the two accidentally inhaled lime, choking their throats and coughing with tears.

"Ahem, ahem! Who is it? ”

"It's me! Drink ——————! ”

The young woman's voice was accompanied by a thunderous howl, and she rushed towards one of the officers.

Appearing on the stage for less than a second, the mysterious woman quickly dodged behind the officer at an incredible speed, and then stretched out a slender jade hand, caressing the officer's back, and was infusing a certain breath.

By the time the officer wanted to resist, it was already too late-

- 'Fish Break. Fill gas to kill'

I felt that a large amount of gas was poured into my chest, and I couldn't take in any oxygen, and I felt a pain in my chest, as if tens of thousands of needles were piercing my alveoli, and the officer immediately coughed up several mouthfuls of blood in agony.

"Ah————! Ahem, ahem! ”

The sound of a painful cough caused concern among the officers on the other side—

"Are you alright!?"

"Before you care about others, you care about yourself!"

It was the voice of the strange woman who answered him.

Suddenly, he felt that the murderous aura that was approaching was coming towards him, and at this time the dust was about to fade, and the figure was turning from blurry to clear, and the officer held the silver-white broadsword tightly, squinting to get a glimpse of the enemy's face, but unexpectedly-

The swift figure showed an unimaginable speed, and before he could see his true face, the figure disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Where have you been!?"

The officer looked nervously around like a kitten in the direction of the moment.

Suddenly, a solid punch sensation exploded from the left abdomen, and the punch was so powerful that it directly shattered the coffin iron armor with multiple defensive magics attached. Not only that, but there was a faint "pop" sound on the left side, and the ribs were broken.

"Woo! Uh——————!h ”

The severe pain numbed his whole body, and the officer shouted in pain covered in cold sweat.

"Here!"

And not forgetting the mocking ridicule.

The two officers instantly lost their fighting spirit and squatted on the spot with no strength, and the figure finally appeared in front of the two of them obediently. It was a beautiful blonde woman, with a bright red robe flowing and a chilling fishbone bayonet at her waist, and her cold gaze judged the two officers.

"You are...... Margaret? ”

Unreasonable skills, one of the officers couldn't help but speculate.

"It's Miss Ben, you're Fords' men? It's so disappointing to me, the weak one doesn't look like the enemy who makes Darcis's guy look terrified, I ask you, what means did you use to make Darcis's old fellow so cowardly you? Could it be to summon monsters? ”

"Ford...... This? ”

The two officers were confused, but were unable to speak and ask questions because of the severe pain.

"I advise you not to act rashly, your lungs have been broken by me, and your ribs and meridians have been broken by me, and any random action will only make your injuries worse."

"By ...... What...... Why...... You weren't affected by 'neutralization'? ”

"Neutralization? Oh! Do you say that the barrier is broken? I am usually used to using magic to suppress my muscle strength, regulate the speed of my heartbeat, and control the flow of elements. ”

“…… I see, 'neutralization'...... is to suppress the current power, however...... Your power is ...... Deliberate compression, resulting in 'neutralization'...... Didn't ...... Hold all your ...... Power ......"

"It's incredible to understand, I didn't expect your heads to be unexpectedly bright."

What a shame, the low-end creatures who had been in their eyes a few minutes ago are now mocking their own intelligence with a condescending attitude, this scene can only be described as ridiculous.

Taunt to taunt, Margaret's gaze was drawn to the distant firelight—it seemed that she wasn't done yet.

"You just stay here and reflect first, and I'll deal with your accomplices first."

After speaking, he turned around and didn't take the other party in his eyes at all, but he was in the other party's arms.

- 'Poison Forest Thorn'!

Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, the officer endured the sharp pain in his lungs and took a big breath, quickly condensed the poisonous element in his mouth, and then quickly compressed the air pressure inside his mouth, and spit out dozens of poisonous needles with unmistakable accuracy - a solid hit for Margaret.

"Now is the time! Besiege this guy! ”

Another officer, too, endured a tingling pain in his abdomen and shouted to his fellow soldiers around the battlefield. The commander's call surrounded the battlefield like a swallow, and the soldiers heard it.

"Rush!"

There were more than thirty surviving soldiers, all of whom rushed towards the lone Margaret. Infested by the poisonous needle, Margaret's nerves are eaten by the toxin and are unable to react.

Suddenly became a turtle in an urn.

The two officers smiled triumphantly, and the blood from the corners of their mouths continued to gush out because of the big movements, forming a waterfall on the side of their mouths.

Unexpectedly, Margaret turned her head unhurriedly - and smiled at the two officers.

The smile suddenly stopped the two officers from laughing, and their eyes widened in horror.

By the time they realized it, it was already too late.

Margaret inhaled slightly, sucking hot air into her chest, boiling the muscles of her whole body—

- 'Eight Fish Knives'

I saw that the beautiful figure disappeared quickly like the wind again, and then, the sound of fresh chopping meat and the sound of iron armor falling came one after another, and there was no scream anymore, there was really only the sound of lying down silently.

The sword light and sword shadows swept across the field, and the soldiers died miserably, their bodies as weak as pieces of paper, scattered in the pool of blood, and the reflection of the pool of blood appeared for a moment—smiling, like the pleasure of death.

Until the last figure, it should be said that the pieces of meat were scattered to the ground, and it was long impossible to distinguish the original appearance of the soldiers.

The two officers couldn't do anything, they watched quietly, and they even looked a little distracted.

When Margaret stood back in front of the two officers, she did not execute them, nor curse them, but said something they did not expect—

"Thank you for your assistance, thanks to your shouts, I don't have to solve them one after another."

The taunt of breaking the defense, the hearts of the two officers have long been shattered.

July 19, 1927, 5:12 a.m., northwest of the Fish-Man tribe. 》

Simply cleaning up the mess, Margaret suppressed the unquenchable sorrow in her heart and inspected the progress of the clan's reconstruction. The threat came too suddenly, and it became so dilapidated.

After Margaret and many soldiers resisted, the enemy finally suffered and temporarily retreated. However, no one can guarantee that the other party will not sneak attack again, not to mention that the village is now ruined and morale is low.

At this time, Margaret did not have the tiredness of fighting all night on her face, only apology and guilt for her people.

As she made her rounds, her mind was filled with yesterday's enemies.

Last night's enemies were cautious in their strategic approach when wearing enchanted enchantments such as 'Bloodthirsty', 'Warrior's Protection', 'Warrior's Valor', 'Stone's Tenacity', 'Thief's Eye', and 'Tree of Wisdom'.

Not to mention that they had erected a 'neutralization' barrier around them beforehand, and they must have acted after careful consideration.

However, the behavior is different from what was imagined.

According to Darcis, the unknown enemy known as "Kurt" and "Siren". At that time, there was no magic ripple on their body at all, which proved that they were unprepared and rashly broke into the Celestial Snake Clan.

Without the help of other external forces, those two guys used their most real strength to suppress Darcy and the other clansmen, even if they did not use "space magic", in terms of numerical superiority, it was impossible to be easily subdued by the two.

In all cases, the feelings of the two leaders after the confrontation with the two leaders last night were very different from the feelings described by Darcis, and even exaggerated, so that they were completely different people in terms of physical feelings...... Finish?

But now, the only force that threatens to start expropriating this wetland is the guy who calls himself Fortes. It makes sense to speculate that those two guys last night might just be a lower class of slaves, not the people Darcis's said they were.

However, the huge difference in strength still makes me a little suspicious.

Suddenly, in the choking smoke ahead, a figure was approaching Margaret at the speed of a trot.

The "crackling" sound of stepping on the broken stone dust mixed with the grief of pain and sadness, Margaret was quickly attracted to the figure in front of her—it was her personal bodyguard, "Tyrfon".

Wearing the heavy and indestructible black dragon armor, it was no longer pitch black, but a large area of blood. I couldn't tell if it was the enemy's blood or our blood, but it could only be used to prove that Tyrfon's performance last night must have been quite heroic.

But now, his face is only tired, and the sorrow of sad retribution, and he is not excited after successfully repelling.

Margaret sensed Tirfin's grief in the distance. She stopped and waited for Tyrfon, who hurried to a position five steps away from Margaret, and stopped his panicked pace.

He fell to one knee and lowered his head—the fatigue of the night's battle made his body tremble quite badly.

"Report to your lordship...... There's something I have to report to you......"

"Don't procrastinate, just say it!"

Margaret urged so impatiently, the tension and worry on her face could not be hidden.

"Please don't get excited! It is...... Yesterday's sneak attack by the enemy...... The residences of the two elders collapsed due to the old building and could not withstand the huge attack, and the two elders unfortunately passed away due to impaired mobility. ”

“…… Really? ”

"Please mourn."

Only to respond coldly and with such a sad retribution, Margaret turned her back to Tyrfon. Tilfeng looked up in confusion, his tear-glittering pupils staring at Margaret's back.

"You...... How are you going to do it? ”

"At present, there is no time to hold a careful farewell ceremony for the deceased, so for the time being, the two elders will be buried together and buried in the same area with the other clansmen who died, and the ceremony will be discussed after the matter is dealt with."

Quickly clean up the grief of that moment, Margaret said calmly.

"Compliance...... Yes, sir. But how do you plan to take down Fortis and the like? ”

"What are you going to do...... In my opinion, Fortes is nothing more than a group of vicious people under his command, who only know how to deal with life as a means of dealing with it, but their strength is not as strong as expected, challenge me? It is undoubtedly a grasshopper shaking the tree. ”

The anger that could not be hidden in the meaning of the words burned with anger, and these words alone made Tierfeng's scalp tingle, not to mention the pair of beautiful eyes that turned his back on Tierfeng, which looked as terrifying as looking at the enemy who killed his father.

"You mean, you're going to go on a personal crusade?"

"To deal with them, there is no need to be specially prepared, and besides, the village is in a mess, so it is better to turn from offense to defense."

“…… But no soldier in the village would agree to such a thing as leaving you alone. ”

"For this reason, Tyrfeng, I hope you can conceal it, if there are soldiers in the village who want to find me, I can prevaricate them with a reason at will, any reason, this matter is only known to you, and there is no possibility of being exposed."

"What ...... the elders' deaths?"

"Hide it for now, you should be the only one who found out, right?"

"Lord Bao, and the two attendants around me know."

"Well, don't let the news leak out, let you secretly dispose of the corpses of the two elders, and then take the opportunity to mix them up in the pile of corpses of the villagers. Although this is a bit disrespectful to the elders, it is also to reassure the people. ”

“…… Compliance. ”

Tilfeng answered timidly.

"Yes. If it's okay, I'll go first. ”

Before leaving, Margaret seemed to remember something, but still did not turn to Tyrfeng, but in a calm tone, turned her back to Tyrfeng and said again:

"The two elders only regard me as their only child, and I hope you can convey to the old man that I have something to do now, and I apologize for not being able to worship you immediately."

"Where are you going now?"

“…… Celestial Serpent Camp. ”

Margaret, who was expressionless, said the answer in a slightly angry tone.

In fact, Tirfeng had long known that if it weren't for Darcis's indecisiveness, the three clans would definitely be able to repel each other, and it wouldn't be as miserable as it is today. But it is also because the patriarch is too tough, so the three clans have not been able to negotiate so far.

The only thing that is uncertain is that I don't know if the Celestial Serpent camp has also been attacked by Fortes, and if so, it will only be self-inflicted. If there were only the Fish-People, the patriarch would not have given up.

The back has been stained with the thick ink of revenge, which cannot be washed away, but only becomes more intense. Presumably that expression was also plagued by grief and anger? Matriarch Margaret, a seemingly irascible and belligerent leader, is actually just a straightforward girl.

Perhaps, the elders are reluctant to let the patriarch assume the position of elder, which is why? Tyrfeng guessed in his heart. Now, the two elders died tragically at the hands of the enemy, leaving behind only infinite speculation and remembrance.

Not only is Master Margaret's grandparents, but also parents in their hearts. Now, what is left of the adults?

- Only Margaret understood.

July 19, 1927, 1:35 a.m., in the chaotic space of Kurt

In the huge and quiet conference hall, the lonely but cold figure sat alone at the round table with six seats, and the empty seats contrasted with the contemplative appearance, looking extraordinarily quiet and leisurely.

Looking through the 'Eye of the Sky' - under the starry night lights, the fish-people and the coffin army are fighting.

That man was Fortes, who had just returned from the Celestial Serpent camp after negotiating.
