In the camp of the Seatta army.

Sephiroth was leisurely sipping a fine wine.

At this time, Scout Esty came to report.

"Lord Sephiroth, Reinhardt has fled from the west. ”

Sephiroth put down his glass, "What about the warriors, did they also flee with Reinhardt?"

Reinhardt was the only one who fled, and the valiant warriors were not in the city, probably dead. ”

"What!?" Sephiroth immediately stood up.

The soldiers he spoke of were the four generals who had taken the "Stigmata" potion, and these people were Sephiroth's troubles.

When he got the news that the four were dead, he couldn't believe it.

He had seen one of them impaled through the body with a spear, but the man was still able to fight, and his strength was undiminished.

This is because even the body of a demon will become unresponsive after receiving such damage.

To make sure that the warriors were dead, Sephiroth took off his cloak and walked out of the tent.

At the same time, he called his four generals and went to the vicinity of the Holy Helmet City to investigate for himself.

"The battle in Helmet City this time was too fierce. ”

"That's right, we've never suffered such serious losses since we set out on the march. ”

"Those four generals in Reinhardt are simply not human. ”

Sheehan, one of the four generals, was not involved in the discussion of the other three, and he raised a question.

"Lord Sephiroth, Reinhardt has cost us so much, why should we let him go?"

Sephiroth, who was on his horse, didn't look at Sheehan at all, "To weaken Cross." ”

"If Reinhardt joins forces with Cross in Copperhill to the west, won't it strengthen the enemy's army? ”

Sephiroth didn't explain Sheehan's doubts, and he wasn't in the mood to explain that strategy right now.

In fact, Sephiroth's reason for doing so is simple.

Both Cross and Reinhardt have strong ambitions, neither of them will yield to anyone, they will only fight openly and secretly for the supremacy.

Sephiroth understands human desires all too well.

Moreover, he has arranged for Hal to infiltrate the town of Coppermountain, and Hal's presence can make Cross's fight against Reinhardt even more intense.

The Holy Helmet City was dead silent, blood dried up and condensed on the cold walls, and this city fortress was like hell.

Sephiroth and his men circled the rancid Helm City, and there were no more defenders above the walls.

Sephiroth gave the order, "Sheen, lead your troops into the city. ”

"Yes!" Sheen immediately turned his horse and galloped back to the barracks.

Sheehan knew what to do when he entered the city, and such a thing did not need to be told in detail by Sephiroth.

Sephiroth and the rest of the men returned to the barracks to discuss countermeasures for attacking the town of Copperhill.

However, just then, a man wearing a Seatta uniform suddenly broke into the tent.

After seeing the intruder, Sephiroth and the others all had a trace of surprise on their faces.

It was none other than Charlie, who was captured by Cross during the battle in Blackwater.

However, at this time, Charlie was neatly dressed in a military uniform and looked proud, not at all like a fleeing captive.

Sephiroth's subordinate was puzzled, "Charlie, you weren't ......"

"Sephiroth!" Charlie immediately interrupted the general, "the king wants you to lead your army back to the royal capital at once. ”

The general was about to refute, but was dissuaded by Sephiroth, "I'll leave at once." ”

Sephiroth was calm, he couldn't disobey King Seaada's orders now, he still had to wait.

Moreover, he already knew the ins and outs of the whole thing when he saw Charlie.

He secretly admired in his heart: Cross Crane, I didn't expect you to think about how to use this idiot when you were fighting Charlie.

You're really my rival!

Several of Sephiroth's generals were puzzled, now was the time to continue to expand the results of the battle, why they should withdraw their troops.

Although they were puzzled, they had always been completely obedient to Sephiroth's orders, so they didn't say anything more.

It's just that they hate Charlie's arrogant demeanor.

"I'll be waiting for you outside the barracks, Sephiroth. ”

After Charlie finished speaking, he walked out of the tent with his back hand.

Seeing this, several generals were really angry, and they held back their anger and said, "Your Excellency Sephiroth!"

"Don't say anything, go and call Sheehan, Esti, and Zade. ”

"Ahh

Sephiroth allocates some troops to Sheen and gives him the task of capturing the fortress of the north wind and the city of Wolfheart, as well as eliminating Cross.

Phantom shooters Esty and Zad will assist Sheehan.

As for the Holy Helm City, Sephiroth did not plan to divide his troops to stay behind, and he did not plan to clean up the corpses of the city.

Holy Helm City, leave it to the scavengers.

After explaining the matter, Sephiroth led his army south overnight.

At the same time, Sheehan also gathered troops. The total number of this team is more than five hundred.

"Let's go!" Sheehan ordered, and the team hurried in the direction of the Northwind Fortress.

......

Two days later, the town of Copper Mountain.

Cross woke up early in the morning, looking at the sky that had just brightened in the east, waiting for the crow to bring the latest information.

"Cross, you care too much about Sephiroth. I also know about the Silver-Eyed Demon King, in fact, he is not so scary. ”

Link said as he stretched over Cross's head.

Cross ignored Link.

Suddenly, a black dot appeared on the horizon, and immediately after, this black dot grew larger and larger.

It's a raven, a crow of Setty!

"Go, wake up Settie. ”

"Good ......" Link flew straight from outside the house to the third-story Setty's room, "Setty!"

Because of Cross's relationship, Setty's nerves have also been highly tense these days. The slightest movement can wake you up, let alone the shouting of a fairy like Link.

Saiti immediately sat up from the bed, "The crow has come back from the east?"

"Hmm. ”

Saiti rubbed her eyes, picked up her clothes and quickly went downstairs.

"I'm sorry, Lord Cross, I'm late. Saiti said as he got dressed, and just then, the crow had landed in front of Saiti.

Saiti first fed a piece of meat to the crow.

After the crow swallowed the fat girl's meat, he changed to communicate with Setty, and Cross was a little nervous on the side, and the naughty Link fell back on top of Cross's head.

The exchange was long, already more than a minute.

Cross had already figured out that the war in the east was complicated.

Finally, the crow flew away.

Cross wasn't in a hurry to ask Seti, he still had to wait for Seti to sort out his thoughts.
