The night rain was cold and ethereal, but the battle was in full swing.
Dargnan and the legendary mighty man stood on one side of the hill, overlooking the tragic battlefield.
As if in no hurry, the man did not immediately ask Dargnan about the war, but casually laughed and praised his detection methods by the way.
"But the carving insect skill made the seniors laugh. Dargnan breathed a sigh of relief and replied modestly, now it seems that the other party is not a difficult person to get along with.
"Military aircraft intelligence is a major plan of the country, how can it be regarded as a small skill of carving insects?" The middle-aged man shook his head before asking, "I don't know if you are interested in working under me?"
I have to say that an excellent young man will be favored by others anytime and anywhere. And Dargnan, apparently in disguised as an aspiring young man, has extraordinary expressiveness, first Allegri graciously accepted him as a student, and now this legendary powerhouse actually asked a question intentionally or unintentionally.
"Huh?" Dargnan was slightly stunned and muttered vaguely, which was considered to be a coping situation. The other party's attitude was not particularly serious, and he couldn't tell what the other party's intentions were, so he could only give this reaction. However, from the middle-aged man's words, he got a lot of information, first of all, the other party was obviously a high-ranking prince and high-ranking official. Moreover, from the words "military aircraft" and "subordinates", it is inferred that he is likely to be a general who commands the army.
It seems that it really is...... That's it. Dargnan secretly made a judgment in his heart, there are not many legendary professionals on the continent, and a list is enough to include them. However, there may be hidden masters, or people who have changed their original identity, and it is not easy to confirm it immediately. However, judging from the information I saw and heard just now, the identity of the other party has been revealed. Nine times out of ten, nothing will go wrong.
Thinking of this, he subconsciously looked at the long knife hanging obliquely from the man's waist, and his heart was faintly agitated. The "Ice Orchid Blade" he used, although it used the power of magic, should essentially be counted as a kind of sword technique. Now that he can see the most pinnacle swordsman in the mainland, he can be regarded as getting what he wants.
"In that case...... All right. Don't talk about that," the middle-aged man glanced at Dalgnan, a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes, before continuing, "You should have been here for a while, I wonder what the situation between the two sides of the battle is?"
"Senior, I have to carry out the commission, so I have crept all the way from the city," Dargnon came back to his senses. He cleared his throat and introduced in detail, "Due to the suddenness of the incident, the Marquis of Borriello was caught off guard, and he suffered very heavy casualties under the charge of the 'Flame Demon Knights', and could only rely on the fortifications to support ......."
"'Flame Demon Knights'......" The middle-aged man muttered and repeated, his eyes fixed on the knights who were still struggling to move forward in the battlefield, and said casually. "They're probably a variant of the Demon Warrior. The strength is really outstanding, but that's all. ”
"Yes, I guess so. Dargnan was stunned, but replied. I always felt that the other party seemed to have glanced at me just now, could it be that he just cast the "Ice Blue Blade" once. But after thinking about it, he still continued, "Due to the restrictions of the terrain and deer firewood, the two sides can only fight in this very small area, and the advantages of the Fire Demon Knight cannot be brought into play. Instead, the defenders gradually gained a foothold. ”
With his guidance, the middle-aged man glanced at the battlefield and nodded, "Indeed, the heavily armored knights can only be regarded as chicken ribs in this kind of battle, not to mention that they can't form a formation now...... However, Onisha probably won't be just this trick. ”
"What the senior said is extremely true," Dargnan slapped without a trace, since the identity of the other party had been determined, then he naturally knew that this was also one of the top commanders on the mainland, and his views on the troops did not need to be repeated, so he simply replied, "It seems that Onisha has already sent scouts to find other weak points in the manor's defense line, and just before the arrival of the senior, he has already divided his troops in two places and bypassed in a roundabout way——"
As soon as the words fell, a faint sound of rushing and killing suddenly sounded in the distance, and at the same time, a hazy firelight gradually lit up.
And so it was. The middle-aged man smiled, not at all worried.
"The line of defense should be broken through quickly," Dargnan speculated, "most of the Marquis de Borriello's army was drawn to the main gate, and the defense line was constructed, but the defense elsewhere was very weak, and, I don't know what the road was, I always felt that they were a little careless, but they just withstood the attack of the main gate, as if they were in control, and did not care about the other areas at all." ”
"That's because they know that reinforcements will arrive soon," the middle-aged man shook his head and snorted, "but Borriello is indeed an idiot, and he was beaten like this by a little girl." ”
"This ......," Dargnan hesitated for a moment, remembering how Borriello could be regarded as his employer, so he argued, "The Marquis of Borriello should have been caught off guard, otherwise he would not have been so in such a hurry." ”
"The army in his hands is several times more than that of Onisha, no matter how caught off guard, he won't be so embarrassed," the middle-aged man frowned, looked down at the battlefield and wondered, "In addition to the private army, doesn't he also control a part of Anfen's Praetorian Guard, isn't it in the manor?"
"I don't know much about this," Dargnan thought for a moment, and added, "but as far as I know, it doesn't seem to be, and that's why Onisha can only sit and wait, and can't pose any threat." ”
"What threat can't be posed?" the middle-aged man chuckled and pointed to his feet, "If Onisha is allowed to go on like this, I don't think the threat is small." ”
Dargnan stuck out his tongue in his heart and whispered, "However, it seems that the Praetorian Guard is not very far from this manor, so we should be able to come to the aid soon." ”
"Presumably, otherwise Borriello wouldn't be so sure. The middle-aged man thought for a moment and nodded approvingly.
"Seniors, if you want to ...... In that case, the junior will take his leave first?" Dargnan glanced at him, but decided to speak openly. The other side is obviously Borriello's reinforcements and should soon join the battlefield.
"Don't worry," the middle-aged man smiled and turned his head to look behind him, "I still have someone to wait." (To be continued......)
