Mimilu finally achieved her goal and moved all the dim sum. Then she was in a place far away from the Mystery's camp, and she was happy to eat it. As Ashrufat had discovered, the half-beasts were only the size of a human teenager, but they ate much more than adults. Soon, Mimilu put all the snacks into her stomach, and then happily burped while stroking her bulging belly.

It's a delicious confectionery. Mimilu lay down in a comfortable place, intending to sleep beautifully.

"Oops! Mimilu has been tracking the mystery man for two days...... What if the enemy that the master said walked by at this time?" Mimilu suddenly thought of something, she raised her head, and muttered to herself with some trepidation.

No, not so coincidentally...... She comforted herself in her heart. Tomorrow at dawn we will immediately return to our observation posts! Oh, and we will expand the scope of our observations! lest the enemy pass quietly. When the time comes, the host will definitely praise Mimilu......

However, at this moment, in the mountainous area south of the "sentry" position of Mimilu, thousands of tents are scattered around a rare small flat land. Because the surrounding environment was so terrible, undulating, overgrown, and so many obstacles that could not be cleared, even Bayral could not allow the soldiers to set up camp. So now the whole camp is in a state of disorganization. It was almost midnight because of the long march today, but the soldiers were still preparing dinner.

A man in a cloak was walking across the messy camp toward the center flag. As he passed, the soldiers got out of the way, not daring to get in the way. The cloak on his body was clearly painted with magical marks, but it did not have any of the marks of the gods of the Star Field. This shows that he is not a priest of the church, but a "wild mage". He is the kind of person who does not belong to the church, but learns the mysteries of magic by chance. In other words, the kind of unscrupulous magician who can turn the other person into a mess of scum at any time. For this kind of guy, everyone shy away. According to folk legends, these wild mages are all followers of evil gods.

The number of wild mages is small, and most of them serve the nations as mercenaries. Compared to the proper priests of the Church, they are lacking in knowledge, but they are perfect in judgment and combat magic due to countless actual battles. It is precisely because of this that the commission of the wild mage is very expensive. This time, the Ryan people dispatched a large army, and in order to strengthen their magical combat power, in addition to the priests sent by the church, they naturally found a group of wild mages to work for them.

Beller was sitting on the ground, eating beans and corned beef with the other soldiers. Aside from his helmet and cape, he was almost indistinguishable from any other soldier. He was grinning and looking carefree, chatting with a couple of officers about some men's conversations. However, in the depths of his eyes, a trace of worry and uneasiness flashed from time to time.

"Your Excellency, General. "The Wild Mage came to Beller's side.

"Oh, our magician is here. Come, let's have some ...... together" Baylor immediately put away his playful expression, for he could see that the magician was not coming casually, but had something to report. "What's the matter?"

"General, our Fifth Spy has brought the latest news with the Teleportation Scroll. The magician replied. "The situation has been confirmed, and it is indeed a half-beast who is following him. The half-beast had been following him for two days, and not so long ago, he had confirmed the existence of the half-beast with his own eyes. ”

"Spy Five......" Bayral quickly called out to the tent. "Robin, bring me the map!"

This order was quickly executed. A few minutes later, Bayral quickly found the target on the map.

"Spy Five...... It should be here now...... The half-beast followed him for two days...... In other words, it is impossible for her to carry out reconnaissance missions in these two days......" Bayral estimated the distance and time on the map. "Suppose the half-beast immediately turns back and rushes away, and if she can keep going at the speed of running, then...... She's coming back......"

The next moment, he breathed a sigh of relief. No problem, he's already made his way through the danger zone, and if I'm not mistaken, he's already sneaking under the vampire's nose.

"Robin, your snack has done a great job!" Béral patted Robin on the back with a delightful look. The half-beast is indeed a very gluttonous creature, as recorded in the book, and is easily attracted by the dim sum, giving up her responsibility to keep watch.

Of course, at this moment, Robin has fully understood Bayrell's wild imagination and conception. "General, you are amazing!"

"Hehe, it's not a big deal. Of course, this was modesty, and Beller's face was full of the joy of victory. "Robin, have you seen any of those people in the Chamber of Commerce?

"Chamber of Commerce?" Robin was naturally disgusted by those who deal with money all day. It is also a deep-seated prejudice of the aristocracy in general. Few nobles were involved in business (buying shares was not the same as doing business), and the aristocracy thought that those merchants were greedy for money, greedy and shameless. As for those executives and the like, he has also been in contact. In Robin's impression, they all buried their noses in data and reports, lacking vitality and decay, "What's wrong with those guys?"

"In a sense, I'm pretty much the same as those guys. Bayral replied. "Actually, it's not that I'm so good, it's just that I know more than others. Rely on the abundant information at hand, deduce the possible development of the situation, and then devise a solution. That's it...... Actually, I envy another kind of people......"

"Another kind of person?" asked Robin curiously.

"Hmm. Some people don't need to set up reliable sources of information, they don't need to 'plan before they act', they don't need to read books all day to broaden their knowledge, and they don't need to practice their own spiritual cultivation...... They were able to achieve the conclusions that I had worked so hard to reach by instinct alone, and by mere intuition or even 'luck', they were able to find the truth from countless fogs, and from a thousand misguided paths the only path to victory. ”

"How is that possible!" Robin asked, surprised.

"That's it. Bayral replied. "That's the kind of people who exist. This world is really unfair. The conclusions that others have spent days and painstaking to come to are 'taken for granted' and guessed correctly...... Hehe, of course, luck doesn't last forever, and judgment always makes mistakes......" Beller laughed twice, obviously not wanting to continue the topic anymore.

"What do you say the vampires are doing now, my lord?" said an officer next to him, a knight captain. "Will he ......?"

"I'm sure he has other things to worry about. Bayral replied. "If you count the time, our Prince Leto's move should come into play. Either the envoy persuaded Damon, or rumors of Damon's fornication with the enemy were flying......"

The Ryan had sent a lot of spies into Sivania before, and it wasn't a problem to spread rumors of this magnitude. According to the information sent back by the spies, the vampires did not have very strong control over Sivania (of course, this was expected, and most of the vampires' energy must have been focused on organizing the undead legions to prepare for war), making it easy for the spies to sneak down and find information. The trouble lies with the undead legions, as the undead cannot be bribed at all. So the current situation is that the Ryan people know everything about the specifics of Sivania, but they don't know much about the internal situation of the undead legion.

Perhaps that's why vampires tolerate these espionage activities and don't turn a blind eye.

Béral was once again lost in thought. But the others, including Robin, were very knowledgeable and didn't disturb his train of thought. The special force in front of him is deep into the enemy's territory, and the life and death of the whole army depends on Bayor.

"Your Excellency, it's time for you to rest. Robin reminded. It's the middle of the night, and they still have a dozen days to go.

"Oh, Robin, help me get that information about Meno City. Bayrell said. A few minutes later, Beller began to flip through the document that had been read many times, in the afterglow of the campfire. Not to mention Baylor, even Robin has read it many times.

The noisy camp had fallen silent, and the other officers had quietly disappeared at some point. At the end, only Bayrell and Robin were left to stand by the campfire. Beller was still silently flipping the pages in the light of the fire, while Robin stood aside, waiting for his dispatch.

......

At the camp of the Great Army, which was ten days away from Bayral, it was now brightly lit. A long banquet had just ended, and the guests and hosts had broken up happily. Leto went out into the field with the help of a servant, trying to blow away the strength of the wine with the cold wind. Although he felt that his feet were floating and that he had to lean on the servant to keep his balance, he knew that his cool mind was not completely overwhelmed by alcohol.

The reason why the banquet is held today is because tomorrow the official march to West Vania will begin. It was a banquet to wish for victory. It was not only the high-ranking officers of the army who came here to celebrate, but also a group of nobles and bureaucrats from the royal capital. This is because as soon as Leto arrives, he reported to the king by "retaking the city of Mill from the vampires after a fierce battle".

The royal city was also quick to react, and a group of newly appointed officials (Bereur was no longer able to hold the position of "temporal governor" because of his military position) arrived with the king's reward papers. In this case, it is imperative to hold a banquet.

There may have been pedantic people who denounced the banquet as untimely, but Leto knew that the war was nothing more than a game. There was absolutely no chance of defeat for him. It would take the average person four or five days to reach West Vania by following the main road through the mountains from the entrance. Considering the sporadic blocking battles that are bound to take place on the road, it will not take more than ten days...... Even with the vampires' death-defying counterattack, there is a large-scale tug-of-war in the valley...... It won't take more than a month......

In other words, the war will be over in a month. In fact, according to estimates, after half a month, the elimination of the undead legion will no longer be the main task. At that point, the main mission will be to hunt down vampires......

Leto let out a smug laugh into the distance, but he immediately saw a clerical officer walking briskly towards him.

"Your Highness. The guard held a letter in his hand. "There's news from Sivania. ”

"Oh...... Hiccup......" Leto couldn't help but burp and let out a very strong smell of wine. The servants around him hurriedly held him firmly, lest he lose his balance and fall.

"What kind of news?" Leto didn't look through the letter, but asked the clerk directly. "The scum of the Successwood Clan have come to an agreement?"
