Chapter Ninety-Eight: Keeping Friends with Demons

At the rebel base, Oster was surprised to hear that the so-called informant actually referred to Marisa, who was only 9 years old, no wonder he hadn't seen this fart since he returned to the headquarters.

Skar laughed and said, "Don't look at Marisa's young age, but she's a magical genius. She had used magic to change her appearance, and she had taken the intermediate exam of the Mage Federation anonymously, and she passed first place, and all kinds of spells and magic items could not defeat her. ”

Although Skar seemed to be very confident, Auster saw in his eyes obvious strength and worry;

Marissa is only an eight or nine-year-old child, but she has such a high consciousness and corresponding ability. When it comes to reconnaissance in towns, it is indeed advantageous because the target is small and not easy to be suspected.

But unexpectedly, Skal actually let a little girl engage in such a dangerous undercover work behind enemy lines. This is not some kind of playful spy trick, the slightest carelessness will end up in a catastrophe.

Oster was also worried, but then it occurred to him that Marissa and Skar were not related, and to be the head of the hall at a young age did need the ability to settle down. Moreover, what the rebels lacked the most was the talent of spellcasters. Intelligence is also a crucial game-breaking advantage in a series of battles.

As he spoke, the battle report came, and Skar entered the confidential room with Oster. Relying on the information sent by Marisa, the rebels knew the strength and movements of the officers and troops well, and Modias commanded the troops to cut off the communication channel between the fortress and the outside world, and repeatedly attacked the top-secret source energy delivery convoy of the corps, forcing Huntington to take the risk of dispatching the main force for a decisive battle;

In the face of the menacing enemy army, Modias continued to implement the movement tactics in a hurry, striding forward and retreating, regardless of the gains and losses of one city and one place, avoiding the enemy's edge, and then looking for opportunities to concentrate superior forces to divide and annihilate.

As the war rages on, Modias has sent a message saying that further accurate information and reinforcements of personnel, ammunition, horses, and harvesting puppets are needed, preferably as many as they want; He is ready to fight a big battle, annihilate the main force of the army in one fell swoop, and avenge Nanchuan's one arrow.

Oster felt that this dwarf was becoming more and more like a general, not only commanding battles, but also being unambiguous in terms of supplies. As he was talking to Skar, he received an encrypted letter from a magical messenger;

This is intelligence behind enemy lines disguised as civilian letters, with garbled runes imposed. After decoding it with the conversion array, Marisa's crooked handwriting slowly appeared on the letter, only two sentences;

"Those stupid people, they wanted to bring someone to arrest me yesterday, and I deceived them in three or two clicks, hahaha! Don't worry, I'll figure out how to get in in two days. ”

Oster gasped after reading it, looked at Skar, his face was also pale, and the two couldn't say a word for a long time. It can be seen that as Oster had judged, Skar was actually very worried about Marisa.

Oster grabbed Skar by the shoulder and said to him word for word, "Let her, right away, come back." "While intelligence is indeed crucial, a group of adults cannot be expected to risk one child.

Skar nodded palely, and hurriedly drafted a secret letter to Marissa to return immediately.

As a result, a day later, Marisa's reply came quickly, and the little girl actually did not agree to return. said that it is a critical period of the war, although he has no undercover identity, he has installed eavesdropping arrays and surveillance crystals everywhere in the city hall, and he can also reconnoiter around to obtain information on the movements of officials and soldiers.

Skar was busy mobilizing resources to support the front line, while Oster was tasked with repairing and improving the Harvest Golems. Neither of them had time to take care of it, and continued to send letters telling Marisa not to be willful, and to be careful.

A few days later, in a decisive battle, the rebels surrounded the Huntington, who was personally in command.

Due to the basic transparency of the information, Huntington, who led the most elite division of the corps, fell headlong into the ambush circle set up by the rebels. However, the well-trained officers and soldiers found that they were surrounded and resisted with all their might, igniting tanks and wagons to form a defensive line;

Each position has been repeatedly contested, and some have changed hands several times. After a day and a night of fierce fighting, with the support of the nearby masses carrying carts and leading the way, the rebel army had sufficient food and ammunition and acted quickly, and all the positions of the officers and troops were finally broken through.

In the early morning, it was foggy and visibility was poor. Modias, who climbed the hill to observe the battlefield, suddenly found that the number of prisoners and enemies killed did not match the intelligence, and there was a difference of thousands of people. Immediately organized troops to pursue all the way north, annihilated several enemy forces, and finally intercepted and annihilated the pro-army escorting Huntington himself in a hasty escape on the periphery of the crossroads.

When all the surrounding soldiers were killed, and the rebel soldiers pried open the hatch of the steam tank and were about to throw a grenade inside, a trembling cry for mercy came from inside, "Don't, don't throw, I surrender!" ”

A fat black man dressed as a man was dragged out of the cabin, and although he had deliberately changed his appearance with camouflage magic, his high-end cashmere boots and shirt emblazoned with the lion's head emblem revealed his status as a senior officer.

In addition, this person immediately took out the Mithril pocket watch and the high-grade magic crystal ring and tried to bribe the warrior, which was even more solid; He was tied up by the warriors and brought to Skar and Oster.

The captured Lieutenant General Huntington was not convinced by the movement tactics of the rebels who ran as soon as they hit and chased after them as soon as they retreated, and felt that if they faced the battle in a dignified manner, he would not be defeated. Asked to see the commander of the rebel army, and wanted to ask him which military school he graduated from.

Auster scoffed, this person had not seen him as upright as he claimed when he raided the Xichuan camp and slaughtered soldiers and civilians before. And this kind of scene is very familiar, as if a certain transport captain's subordinates had said similar things; He agreed to the other party's request.

When he saw that Modias was a dwarf, Huntington couldn't help but be amazed and muttered that an inferior race could have such intelligence.

Despite being captured, Huntington considered himself an aristocratic man, refusing to reveal any information about the fortress's command and defensive forces.

In the face of the interrogation of the rebel soldiers, he kept repeating a sentence; The news of his capture could be notified to the Sentinel Ridge Prefecture in exchange for a large amount of ransom, or in exchange for a considerable number of prisoners of war. These are all clearly marked in the nobility law and the precepts of the church, provided that their status as a nobility is not detrimental.

Oster walked into the interrogation room, heard it, and immediately retorted, "It's all fart, anyway, in exchange for ransom, wouldn't it be better to cut off one of your hands and one ear and send it back?" ”

Huntington's face turned pale, and he hurriedly said, "I am a great nobleman who has served the Holy Light for generations, and I have the Church's Light family emblem, and I am personally protected by the Northern Titans. If you dare to hurt me, the Light will immediately retribution. Aren't you afraid that you will be sent to the Twisted Void and spend the rest of your life with demons? ”

Hearing this, the rebel interrogators all looked at Oster. Oster laughed and waved for the others to go out first.

Then he closed the door and walked towards the terrified Huntington, laughing and rubbing his hands, and said, "I think I heard that someone is interested in demons. The contemptible is not talented, and it happens to have a little bit to do with the Burning Legion. Let's have a deep conversation, come on, heehehehehe......"

Half an hour later, when the warriors returned, they couldn't help but pinch their noses at the stench that came over their faces;

Remnants of dark magic roamed around the interrogation room, and the prisoners handcuffed to their chairs were clumped into a mud with a large expanse of incontinence beneath them.

Oster, whose face was covered with anti-odor magic, paced back and forth. Huntington's eyes were straight, his gaze was glazed, his tongue hung out, and his snot and tears soaked the high-end shirt on his chest.

Oster asked, and he answered. From the defense of the fortress, the distribution of firepower points, to the composition of the personnel and weapons and equipment of each part of the defenders, the names and resumes of officers, and the communication command command, all questions are answered. The interrogators ignored the stench, quickly sat down, and recorded all the information one by one.

After a friendly interrogation by Oster, an important piece of information was obtained: Huntington had indeed been bribed.

More than half a year ago, a mysterious person who claimed to be a big man in the Mage Federation paid a staggering sum of money to hire them to help suppress the Montenegrin rebels. This man even had the Royal Insignia of Stormwind, which gave Huntington the chance to be promoted to Admiral. Coupled with the endorsement of Ernest the mayor of Black Mountain, Huntington, who had been depressed for a long time, had to be convinced.
