Chapter 280: The Last Man (I)

Diermod naturally saw the reinforcements that arrived in time, and while he was relieved, the knight couldn't help but return the humiliation he had just received, and he endured the pain and smiled: "Hahaha...... Your Excellency, it seems that the outcome of this battle has indeed been decided. But maybe it's a little different from what you expected, you lost those works and we won!"

As he spoke, even if he was as calm as him, he couldn't help but laugh loudly. Penny, who showed a warm and angry expression for the first time, put the knight in a good mood, and the already clear situation also made the knight relax.

Kel'thugad here was not in such a good mood, and he asked Penny a little anxiously: "Your Excellency, what should we do next?" Although we have brought a few people this time, if we make a move, these people will not be a problem. ”

After the initial irritation, Penny quickly regained his composure, and a nonchalant smile appeared on his face once more. After listening to Kel'thugad's words, Penny smiled noncommittally, and then gave the order directly: "Retreat, inform all our men, this battle is over." ”

"But it's not like we're out of the cracks. Kel'thugad said with confusion and anxiety.

In his opinion, with these elite red-robed magicians, as well as the two big killers of himself and the chief, although it was a bit difficult to deal with tens of thousands of soldiers, it was not without a chance of winning.

But in Penny's view, such a battle is meaningless: "I've been telling you that we're here mainly to test my new magic, and that the outcome of the war has nothing to do with us. While having me here. It can also win against the previous division, but it is too big at any time, and this time we are bringing only henchmen and elites, and I don't want them to be wasted in this kind of place. ”

As he spoke, he looked at the knight on horseback again, and said with some helplessness and appreciation: "Anyway, we can't help this knight, we can't tell the winner in a short time, and after being dragged by him, our losses will only get bigger and bigger, and the gains outweigh the losses." But that's okay too. Anyway, the main purpose of our experiment here has been achieved. Failure in other things is also failure. ”

"I see, I'm going to organize their retreat. Although somewhat reluctant, Kel'thugad carried out the chief's orders.

Wait for Krisugad to go away. Penny spoke again, "You're lucky this time." Knight. Next time if we still have a chance to meet. Then the battle between us would not have ended so simply. I'm looking forward to seeing how you do then, Knight. ”

"I can't ask for it!" said Diermod with a smile.

"Huh...... I hope you don't disappoint me. Penny chuckled, suddenly remembering something. He said to the knight, "Oh, yes. To the little priest named Kyleus, you also conveyed a word for me. ”

"Speak, please. "A knight of integrity will not stand in the way of such things.

"Just tell him that I, Penision, welcome him to the District at any time, and it doesn't matter if he joins the red robe or not. It's been a long time since I've seen such a gifted young man with the same taste as me, and he can come to me at any time if he is willing to learn magic from me. As he spoke, Penisian retreated with his red-robed men.

At this point, Diermod finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he dragged his tired body to his men, who had been reduced to a third of his men, and cleaned the battlefield with sadness, burying his comrades.

Silence and solidification filled the sky.

On the other side, here in Kyleus.

After hearing the Earl's relays of Gala's information, Kylelius was shocked and asked incredulously, "You mean, Gala told you that the president of the Cyprus branch of the Traveller's Church was also involved in this matter!"

It's no wonder that Kylelius was shocked that Shadows and Travelers, two churches that had always been in a fierce rivalry, had joined forces at this time. This is not good news for the Church of Order, which is in an unfriendly relationship with both churches.

Here we will first briefly introduce the class composition of the Elfman Church. The first is the headquarters of the church, commonly known as the 'General Meeting', which is the highest authority of the Traveler Church, responsible for managing subordinate organizations above the S level and the management of tasks at the same level.

Then there is the Great Diocesan Church, which is similar to the Union Diocesan of the Order Church, and then there are the branches of the kingdom or the imperial province and the republic state, which are equivalent to the dioceses under the jurisdiction of Mentor Julian.

The last is the branch at the city level of the kingdom, and the cadre of the Traveler Church who participated in this red-robed conspiracy is the branch president of the Cyprus region.

Although Kellius had guessed that there must be people involved in the Traveler's Church, he never expected such a high-level clergyman. The power of a branch president of a diocese to the clergy of the Traveler Church, who can mobilize mass mercenaries at any level, can be said to be very great.

But what made Kellius puzzled was that it was no good for Elfman to join forces with Dakor for anything. Compared to His Majesty, the Lord of Order, the two of them are the main competitors.

Soon, the Count answered Kylelius's question: "I heard Uncle Gala say that this branch leader has some tricks that the red robes have caught, so he helped the red robes in this matter, and as for what the specific handle, he doesn't know what the tricks are." ”

Hearing this, Kylelius breathed a sigh of relief, if the two churches joined forces, then the first to bear the brunt of the blow would be Julian, the white cardinal of the subdiocese, and the priest, who was full of respect and gratitude to him, naturally did not want this to happen.

"In other words, the branch president was secretly doing this behind the church's back, and the higher-ups of the Traveler Church didn't know about it?" asked Kylelius tentatively.

"I think so. The Count wasn't sure, but he believed what Gala had said before he died.

"Then the next thing we need to do is to trouble the branch president, even if we don't have evidence that he participated in the subversion of the government, but I think the charge of causing a riot should be not small for the mercenaries to be lax and undisciplined. Kylelius suggested angrily.

Almost all of the culprits behind the murder of Lycia have been confirmed, and Kyrlius who can take revenge has already taken revenge, and he can almost be regarded as the last one. Therefore, Kylelius's mood at this time was also a little complicated, and the joy and comfort that he should have after revenge were almost absent in his heart at this time. (To be continued......)
