The sunset finally set below the horizon, and the bloody twilight was slowly covered by the deep night, and the time slowly passed, and the stars lit up one by one, reflecting the clear summer night sky higher and farther and more transparent. Although it was a moonless night, the five-colored starlight swayed down, but it contained every qiē on the earth in a layer of hazy silver starlight. The colors of heaven and earth seem to have receded in this twilight, leaving only a simple blue and a contrast of silver and white.

But the Camino at night is colorful.

Nestled on the western edge of the empire, this small city, which had been dormant for hundreds of years, is now immersed in a hustle and bustle like never before. Every street and alley, every group of buildings, every window, is lit with bright lights, and the excitement of wine, lamps, the impact of utensils and the laughter of people, blessings and noise converge, as if awakening the night wind, it panics through the streets and alleys, stirs the towering towers, hangs the flags of the unknown years, and reveals the patterns that have bloomed on the flags that have been renewed.

The only difference, or the flower, does not represent the golden jin of the empire, but the tulips that bloom on the lion eagle coat of arms.

This is the Camino, once the border of the Empire, the territory of present-day Tumenis, and the place where the regent of Tumenis will come to patrol in a few days.

On the high walls, the blazing flames of the braziers reflected the deserted road, and there was no longer the tension of three steps, one post, five steps, and one sentry—no one expressed dissatisfaction with this, because there was no enemy who could sneak past the loosely guarded wall at this time.

Outside the city walls, in the military camps that were connected together, the fires were shining, converging into a red that reflected half of the sky, even better than the lights in the city.

It was the army of Tumenes, a country where the armies of nearly half of the noble families gathered and surrounded the city. The tents of more than 30,000 troops stretched for three miles, almost equivalent to piling up another wall outside the city.

However, this qiē is not the end.

According to the original plan, there should be at least 50,000 troops gathered here, so such an uproar. It will inevitably last for more than five days.

Originally, for a city with a teleportation circle, the transfer of troops should be a trivial matter, but as long as you have a basic understanding of magic, you will understand the convenience of the so-called teleportation. After all, it's not all costless - every movement of the teleportation circle will cost the spells prepared by the mages, and the farther the teleportation, the more people there are, and the more it will cost. So despite the large number of mages in Tumenis, it was an unrealistic proposal to teleport everyone to this city, which was originally located thousands of miles away.

Plus the influence of Pandor's amulet. Now it has become more and more powerful, so in addition to the teleportation network that has been directly connected with the Camino No, the armies in other places want to gather, and most of them still rely on four or two legs, so the soldiers, horses, food, and grass, a thousand things plus hundreds of miles of roads, plus they are already in the empire. If the route is not familiar, it is naturally impossible to save, and the long march is long.

The process could even be called protracted – in fact, when the prince regent decided to travel to the newly occupied city. A large number of troops had already begun to move, but now, six days later, the goal of the march was only a little more than halfway accomplished.

It's just that even with such a long buffer time. It doesn't mean that a single qiē can go smoothly, it is still a hasty and troublesome mobilization operation - just to meet the small and medium-sized lords from various territories, and their troops. It caused a lot of commotion, these nobles with high and low titles, they were extremely self-conscious about their status, and everyone wanted to station their troops in the city as much as possible, so that they could express their loyalty to the future king and show their savings, and secondly, in case of danger, they would not be used as cannon fodder.

So, after three days of quarrelling, the final compromise and adjustment was to decide that only the nobles could enter the city without discrimination.

However, as a city near the border, the scale of the Camino naturally cannot be compared with the bustling city, although after the occupation, the military headquarters of Tumenis has been systematically reduced in population, the original die-hard imperial aristocracy was exterminated, and their laborers, craftsmen, and servants were relocated to the interior to live, at least half of the space in the city was vacated, but it was still difficult to accommodate so many powerful people.

Therefore, even the hospitality level of the nobles had to be lowered again and again, basically the guys below the viscount, that is, there was an eye-catching house, or a larger hotel to settle down, as for the down, there was not much difference from the commoners.

Of course, the reduction of the standard of living does not mean the decline in the quality of life, after all, for the nobles, the service of servants is the core of the nobles, and it is a matter of course.

Although seriously speaking, during the expedition, these nobles were restricted from carrying their servants, but there were still many people who secretly carried a lot of characters of unknown origin, anyway, according to the official statement, all the lords went out with the car, so how many peasants and soldiers were in the army, how many were servants, cooks or concubines, lovers, etc., it depended on their loyalty and courage.

And it turned out that the nobles of the Tumenis kingdom never lacked guts...... Time gradually advanced to the sixth day, and His Royal Highness the prince still seemed to have no sign of coming, just letting these nobles make trouble in this city, so today's Camino has become a city of nobles, a beach located on the front line of the two armies, flashy and gorgeous, singing and dancing!

In this sublimated scene, there may also be a bit of incompatible loneliness.

For example, Edward, dressed in a black robe, is standing on the gatehouse of the city wall of the Camino at this moment.

He had no roots in aristocratic circles, and although most of the people he knew were sensitive, they were even fewer in number, such as James of Strong, who was now a Strong, Willian, one of the heirs of the Earl of Ralphs, the Duke of Greenland and his sister, the Lord of the Sword, and reluctantly, it seemed that there was still that Daemon Long? Blackhawk, but none of these people seemed likely to come to spend time with him idle, even the Sword Saint was taken away by a family butler waiting there as soon as he entered the city, even if his face was extremely impatient. But she didn't seem to dare to disobey her brother's orders.

But it should be taken for granted,

Edward had no interest in the aristocratic gatherings of the dead, and had no intention of expanding his social circle among the nobility, and for a little time he would rather study in his own residence, or simply wander out like this for some business. Be prepared.

Or in the eyes of others, there is only a mage standing on the city wall, looking from afar, and a black robe deeply hides him in the dark shadow, making him show a kind of indifference that no one can approach, only when he raises his head slightly. Only then can you see a little silver glow flickering in the shadow of the hood.

In front of Edward, however, everything was different—the city, indulged in twilight and lights, was nothing more than a huge background, only ten feet in circumference, occupying half of his field of vision, with colorful and flickering colored lights. The light jumps. A large and tiny castle is outlined, and every fortress and wall is shaped into the same appearance as this Camino No.

Edward's gaze slowly flowed over the illusory shadow.

Through Guò's recent exploration, he has roughly mastered the ability to see this kind of vision, such as scaling the scale of the scenery in that piece of light and shadow. Or projected into the distance. For example, the general meaning of each light and shadow represents - the light and shade of light represent the strength of the storage zài, and the color corresponds to the magic items on their bodies, or a certain ability, or the magic faction mastered by the magician, or the field that the priest is good at, and it is also the general expression of the body of the warriors. Weakened and tenacious. It's all clear at a glance.

Buildings other than human beings are like hazy outlines, which are meaningless under this observation. Magically arranged traps, magic circles. It will all be clearly visible to the psychic mancer - he can even see the flow of the magic.

This means of observing the world is used by the gods, and it is naturally very powerful, and if it cannot be compared with Edward in terms of strength, then he can only analyze the nature of all the powers from the inside out...... With Edward's current strength, few seem to be able to escape this observation. As long as he wanted to, there was nothing in the whole city that could escape his surveillance.

But......

Even though the psychic sorcerer's gaze had taken in the whole city, he didn't find the slightest sign of the Vice-Mentor of Thomas—even the mages who were accustomed to being the head of the line did not show the slightest hint of conspiracy. It's normal for them to be busy or idle, and it's so normal for them to be a qiē.

Shaking his head, Edward leaped from the top of the city, his body flashing slightly in midair, and he was already on the roof of a house a few hundred feet away.

Directly in front of him is an ordinary-looking single-family house, in which a small building stands in the shade of greenery, and its gray appearance is made of limestone, which at a glance is almost no different from several contemporaneous houses around it.

Edward's eyes narrowed, and the silver in his eyes was like the starlight in the sky.

Although there was nothing unusual on the exterior of the mansion, in his eyes, in the depths of the mansion, there was a layer of unobservable glorious mist, which was misty and sealed the inside. He could only barely see that there were a few Cunzài with at least a high-level knight level on the outermost periphery, and two mages with good abilities.

Will it be a goal here?

Wait a minute, wait a minute-

The vision of the gods is not unlimited.

Its weaknesses were as obvious as its strengths—like Lisa and Daherne, for example, Edward couldn't judge their strength—he had tried, and the result was that at a glance, they were two dark clouds of purple-black. Nothing can be seen. And the powerful spell enchantments in the magic tower can also prevent his observation-

How much effort did it take to attack such a small city, which had been cut off from all back roads? It was naturally just a formality, in order to achieve this first victory. Naturally, it is

Correspondingly, the age group was slightly higher, with very few young knights in their early twenties, most of them approaching their thirties, and all of them received various war medals. The common denominator is that there are no glorious surnames, no great ancestors, and they all need to work hard by themselves. They are not in the same order, but they often meet to discuss problems, and they have an ordinary cohesion, and no one would doubt that once the war breaks out, these middle-level young officers can tacitly cooperate with each other and fight some beautiful small battles.

Edward shook his head, but then tossed the little thing aside. He came here just to fight soy sauce, whether the war is won or lost is none of his business, the kingdom will not be defeated if it loses one or two cities on this kind of frontier, victory is to kill thousands of cannon fodder, and the orc troops on the side of the empire will multiply faster, or it will take three years and five years. You can go on the offensive again.

They are short, gray-skinned humanoids with bat wings and snake tails, as well as horns on their heads and backs. Yellow eyes with pupils that zoom in and out freely like cats.

Yes, Kwasimo, this little thing that is proficient in invisibility, has an irresistible poison in its fingernails.

The little devil tried to struggle at first, but it was immediately in vain. Ironface pinched its wings. It's as effortless as a child holding a dragonfly, and the life and death of its prey can be decided at a glance – it's a familiar situation.

"Let go! let go!" it squeaked and screamed in a different language, "Pipsqueak is not a wanderer, Pipsqueak has a powerful master!

It falls at the foot of the mountain on a small plain, and two small rivers run around the city. The town is not big,

For Your Highness's sake,

In fact, Your Highness could have chosen a larger city to show our strength. For example, Ticton is the center of the territory of the Empire's miscellaneous marquises, and there are no more than 8,000 soldiers stationed there, which is just the right way to show our strength.

A young man's gaze was out of the city. He glanced at the gradually deeper wilderness, and his tone was a little dissatisfied: "We have an army of 47,000, of which 20,000 are elites from all over the world, isn't it a bit shabby to use a small city of 20,000 people as a joint force for the first battle?"

"Don't make a fuss, the generals naturally have their own considerations, not to mention, Ticton is not a good bone, you know, the attitude of the Imperial towards orcs is not so bad, the Ticton family is famous for being good at raising werewolves, attacking them, even if we can win, our losses will be heavy, and besides, Ticton is in the middle of nowhere, what effect can it do for our march? It is better to leave it to that Rudolph...... Well, stay for later and deal with it slowly. ”

Billy Bull, who commanded the battle, was an experienced veteran, and in just six days, the cities in all three directions of the city had been defeated, and a defense centered on the Camino was built, but only the small city northeast of the Camino, leading to the heart of the empire, was left.

This offensive should be an attitude, in order to boost the morale of the army on a large scale...... You must know that Tumenis has been at war with the empire for hundreds of years, although he has an absolute advantage in magic, in fact, he has more losses and fewer wins, and there are a large number of ** divisions, but several wars are caused by the invasion of the empire, and even this time is no exception, now, the whole war situation has changed again and again, and Tumenis finally grasped the opportunity to fight back, but before that, in addition to making the whole country unite and hate the enemy, it is natural to eliminate the kind of 'emperor** in the hearts of most nobles The team is fierce and difficult, except for the wonder of magic, it cannot be matched', and the future attack can be smooth.

"It's a bit unpleasant, it's a pity, the first war is this kind of boring war of annihilation. ”
