Cross didn't know why they ran away, and he figured that his shout wasn't particularly scary. And Nia beside him also looked puzzled.

At this time, Link flew back.

"Do you have any orders, Lord Cross?"

"Link, I want you to help me get a message to Watson. ”

"No problem, Your Excellency, please speak. ”

"Stay on standby and don't attack without permission.

Unless I give the order. ”

"I see, what is your order?"

"You have been surrounded by me, and this is the order, and when I say this, it is the time to attack, including you. Link. ”

After hearing this, Link couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh, "Hahaha, Your Excellency Cross's order is too domineering. ”

Nia realized the deep purpose of this order, to lower the morale of the enemy army.

"Let's go. Cross said to Link.

"Yes. ”

After Link flew away, Cross looked ahead with a serious expression, "Nia." ”

The sudden call made Nia react for a few seconds, "Yes, Lord Cross. ”

"Have you ever heard of the Phantom Shooter?"

"Hmm. ”

"When I was in Blackwater, I came across. ”

Nia didn't speak, just clenched her fists, and she thought to herself that it would be nice if she could be by Cross's side at that time.

Cross continued, "It was a female elf, she was so strong that my human senses couldn't catch her movements, but luckily I escaped her killing and killed her. ”

"There must be a Phantom Shooter among the enemies this time, right?" Nia's reaction was quick, and she immediately knew what Cross really meant by this.

"That's right, your perception is much stronger than mine, and you have to try to catch such an enemy as much as possible, this invisible enemy is our greatest threat. ”

"Hmm!" Nya nodded vigorously. She secretly swore that this time she would never be a bystander like the Dragon Castle again, and she would share the worries of Lord Cross.

......

In the enemy's formation, the scouts rushed to report.

"Lord Charlie, it's Silver-Eyed Cross!"

Looking at a few panicked scouts, Charlie was unhappy, his troops were strictly disciplined, how could he tolerate such startled soldiers, which also led to him not hearing the scout's report clearly at all.

"What are you talking about!?" asked Charlie solemnly.

The few people who were already panicked were scolded by Charlie like this, and they became even more panicked, and they even slurred to speak, "Yes...... It's ......"

"What the hell have you found!"

The three human scouts were so frightened that they fell to their knees.

Fortunately, the release of emotions also made them finally able to speak clearly, "Your Excellency Charlie, Silver-Eyed Cross, the person who is in that city is Silver-Eyed Cross......"

Charlie was taken aback, and Sam, the deputy commander beside him, was also extremely surprised, he didn't quite believe the scout's information, "Your Excellency Charlie, we only received the news from the Flying Crow from the Commander-in-Chief in the early hours of this morning, why did we meet this Silver-Eyed Cross now? I think the information is wrong." ”

After hearing this, Charlie stroked his beard and nodded, "You're right, Sam, I still need to investigate again, and I need to find out the enemy before I can do it." ”

"The general is wise. Sam praised.

Then Charlie turned to the three humans in front of him, "How many troops are there in that city ceremonies?"

The three of them looked at each other, they didn't get close to the city fortress at all, how could they know the number of soldiers in the city fortress.

"You don't even know this!" Charlie's tone became stern again.

One of them was so frightened that he blurted out, "Two!"

Everyone around was shocked again!

Surprised, Charlie kicked away one of the scouts closest to him, "Get out!"

The three men walked away in a gloomy manner.

It is clear that he is quite unhappy with this investigation.

Only two people?

Charlie would never believe that if there were only two people on the other side, then why would the defenders of Blackwater send a boulder to send a distress signal.

Definitely more than two people!

Charlie came to the judgment at this time, the enemy is quite cunning, they may only let the scouts see two soldiers, while the rest of the soldiers are hiding in the city, the purpose is to paralyze our carelessness, when our carelessness attacked, they took the opportunity to kill, so that our side was defeated in a panic.

Charlie won't fall for this!

However, he decided to do another reconnaissance, and this time he couldn't find nothing like the last time.

"Do any of you want to go to the Stronghold ahead to investigate?"

"Your Excellency Charlie, I can go. ”

Charlie saw that it was a male elf with a longbow on his back.

"Can you be alone?"

"Your Excellency, rest assured, I am a Phantom Shooter. ”

"It turned out to be the Phantom Shooter sent by the Commander-in-Chief to assist us, but as you heard just now, there is likely to be Silver-Eyed Cross in that stronghold. Do you still dare to go?"

Of course, Charlie hopes that this phantom shooter can go to investigate, and it is naturally best to detect the news, but even if he is dead, Charlie thinks it is good.

Charlie knew very well that the Phantom Shooter arranged by the commander-in-chief Sephiroth was ostensibly to assist in the battle, but in fact it was the eyeliner of Sephiroth's supervisor Charlie's army, and Charlie just took this opportunity to get rid of this eyeliner.

"Your Excellency, Blackwater Town has asked us for help, so naturally we have to go to the rescue, and of course, reconnaissance is also essential.

If we find out that the opponent is Silver-Eyed Cross, then we can only withdraw at the behest of Lord Sephiroth.

Therefore, this reconnaissance must be carried out, and I am the only one in your unit who is capable of such a task. ”

Charlie and Sam were very uncomfortable with the Phantom Shooter's words, and their dissatisfaction and disgust with Sephiroth rose to another level, and they cursed in their hearts at the same time: Sephiroth, this bastard! It's just a child who hasn't grown up yet, and he dares to send someone to spy on me, and besides, this bastard who spies on me completely looks down on my troops! One day, I will make you lose everything you have now!

However, Charlie and Sam did not dare to say this on the surface.

Charlie agreed to the Phantom Shooter's request for scouting, and another idea came to his mind.

......

The phantom shooter looked at the sky, then at the surroundings, changed into a coat, and after changing into an overcoat, the phantom shooter disappeared in an instant.

The Phantom Shooter set off, his purpose was clear, all he had to do was scout.

It's a pity that he met Cross and Nia.

The Phantom Shooter arrives near the Stronghold and finds Cross and Nia on the top of the city, and he also sees Cross's Silver Eye.

He was preparing to retreat......
