William glanced at Ed, "You're worried they'll run away?"

"Yes, Lord William. ”

"The three of them are from Blackwater, and they won't run away. ”

"But ......"

"Say no more. ”

"Yes......"

Seeing that the crowd was already quiet, William spread out the map on the table.

"I'll start with my thoughts.

First of all, we do not take the initiative to attack, we just blow the horn. Those who are not afraid of death will attack the northwest of Blackwater when they hear the horn, and the scavengers of Blackwater will be attracted to it.

At this time, we will land in Blackwater from the southeast and destroy the lone scavengers. Retake Blackwater in one fell swoop.

I will let the slaves be the vanguard, and you will lead the soldiers into battle.

Do you have any questions about this plan?"

The soldiers looked at each other.

"My lord, do we really need to attack in person?"

Hearing this, William laughed, "Hahaha, naïve! Do you really think that you can destroy so many scavengers with just those few children?"

Tonight, they will all die tragically in Blackwater.

And we're the ones in this fierce battle, and, no matter what, we're going to retake Blackwater.

Otherwise, Reinhardt's forces would not be able to be resupplied and they would be doomed.

Once they're done, we're done. ”

Speaking of this, William let out a long sigh, he knew that he had no way back now, but to follow Reinhardt and continue to move forward.

William retracted his thoughts and asked, "Do you guys have any other ideas?"

"My lord, if we blow the horn directly and don't carry out a long-range attack, I'm afraid those guys from Blackwater Town will die soon, in that case, won't their combat power be wasted?"

"Stupid, you know, even if we attract the scavengers, those people will die! And don't expect them to kill a few scavengers.

Rather than let them die in vain, let them contribute a little to our success in retaking Blackwater. ”

"Master William was really thoughtful. ”

"Since we have any opinions, we will start after sunset. ”

"Yes!"

"I wish you all a triumph. ”

......

Cross and the others had already arrived in the northwest of Blackwater Town at this time.

At Cross's behalf, Gawain and Lancelot stayed on the ship, while he and Nia went on a hunt.

"Nia, you are behind me to help me, come and help me if you find me in trouble, and don't do anything else. ”

"Good. But ......"

"Don't worry, I just want to test my strength, I'm not going to joke with my life. ”

"Got it, Mistress Cross. ”

For Cross, hunting scavengers is just to study the power of his own bloodline, he wants to know what kind of combat power it will be if he is full firepower, and he wants to know if full fire will bring about a backlash of bloodline.

With a sword on his left and right, Cross searched for the scavengers in Blackwater, and soon found a lone scavenger eating corpses.

He motioned for Nia to follow, and together they hid behind the wall, waiting for William's signal.

......

After sunset, the horn sounded, and Cross clenched his sword in both hands, and jumped so hard that he climbed directly over a wall more than two meters high, followed by a dash, and in less than a second, he came to the lone scavenger, and his sword fell.

With a scream, the scavenger had been cut in two, and bright red blood spurted out.

As soon as Nia peeked out from behind the wall, she found that the scavenger was dead, and that it had been split in two under a single blow.

If it weren't for her keen eyesight, she probably wouldn't have been able to capture Cross's slash at all.

She opened her mouth wide in surprise, unable to believe what she saw: how could a human have such strength and speed, is this the strength that Master Cross wants to test?

"Nia, burn corpses, including those of scavengers. ”

Cross's words brought Nia back to her senses, and she hurriedly replied, "Okay. ”

Then Cross began to search for the next scavenger.

He thought as he searched: It turns out that with all his strength to have such power, no wonder that necromancer was also killed by me in an instant. Then I'm going to try now how long I can last with full fire.

Thus, Cross really began to hunt the scavengers.

To his surprise, his whereabouts were discovered by the scavenger, and even more unexpectedly, the scavenger called for help without attacking.

It was as if it was the intuition of its beast telling it that the human in front of it was too terrifying.

A shrill roar immediately pierced the quiet night, and the battle in Blackwater was about to break out.

Cross didn't let the cry last long, and with a single slash, the scavenger was split in two.

......

On the other hand, William heard the roar of the scavenger and began to direct his team to land in Blackwater.

The difference is that their plan to hunt the scavengers did not go well.

They killed the first scavenger after 6 deaths, and luckily for the scavenger let out a last-minute scream for help.

"Burn the corpses!" William clenched his fists, he didn't know what the final loss would be, but he had already made up his mind to take Blackwater back to the death.

......

The battle continued on both sides, and there were clearly more scavengers on Cross's side, and they were stronger.

However, in front of Cross, who is full of firepower, these ferocious monsters are like rats.

Eventually, the scavengers began to flee in all directions.

And Cross was not in a hurry to catch up, because his weapon was damaged.

Ordinary iron swords slashed against the thick scale armor of the scavenger and didn't last long.

So, he could only throw away the original two long swords and pick up Nia's sword.

Unlike the ease on Cross's side, William's forces were besieged by two scavengers.

Under the fierce onslaught, nine more people had died, but the two scavengers had only suffered a few skin wounds.

"Damn it!"

William clenched his fists even tighter, he didn't want to lose in this place.

"Don't be afraid! Cowardice will only allow these monsters to seize their chances.

Stabilize the formation, the soldiers with shields block the monsters' attacks, and the soldiers with spears quickly stab them with spears!"

William's encouragement had little effect.

Suddenly, one of the slaves in the group dropped his shield and began to run away.

But he was too close to the scavenger.

The scavenger's claws stabbed the slave in the chest, then lifted it into the air and bit it in half before hitting the ground.
