Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The few knights in front turned out to be the squadron leader "Baron Rachels" of the 5th Legion Knight Squadron and his knights.  Reaches and the others belong to the 7th Regiment of the 5th Army of the Empire (Leaches is the captain). They have a squadron of knights (60 people, Reaches serves concurrently), a standard infantry team (450 people), and a chariot and horse team (logistics).  ) (150 people) were the latest group to come to "Vide" Fortress to change defenses. However, when they arrived yesterday, "Vide" Fortress had already been captured.  After setting up camp that day, Reichs immediately commanded the 7th Wing to conduct a wave of reconnaissance attacks.  However, what was disappointing was that they used nearly half of their men and horses, and they only managed to enter the gate, without even touching the edge of the fortress.  But this attack also allowed them to find out the identities of the occupiers of Wade Fortress: the "dead" possessed by demons.

    "What is the "Dead"? Does it have anything to do with Timon?" We were invited to enter the command tent of the 7th Wing's camp. Lilith, as the person with the highest title in the tent, couldn't wait to ask Rachel before she even sat down.  Si raised the question, and as the supreme commander of the 3rd Knights, I only care about the life and death of Stanton and the other three, so I spoke before Rachels.

    "Your Highness Lilith, please ask Captain Rachel to sit down before you speak. Oh, by the way, has Sir Captain seen the three knights of our 3rd Knights? They were detained in Vader Fortress before." I don't care.  Everyone present was surprised and ordered Lilith to shut up without even bothering to say the word "please".

    "Is one of the three people with black hair like the leader?" Rachel recalled carefully and immediately gave the answer.

    "When we attacked yesterday, a few guys slipped out from behind the fortress, and the soldiers of the infantry squadron responsible for reconnaissance detained them"

    "Where are they now?! Tell me!" I stood up from the chair with a bang, almost knocking down Lilith who was sitting next to me in the main seat.

    "Adelia!"

    "Here, sir!" A thin man sitting under Rachel immediately stood up.

    "Where are you holding the people you detained yesterday?"

    "Stop talking about that, that Adria, you take me there right away!" I didn't care to ask any more questions, and pulled Adria outside the tent.

    "By the way, Master Rachel, if you have anything, just tell Her Highness Lilith." I said loudly without looking back.

    "Is this the leader of your third knight order? Holy Knight Dibor?" Rachels murmured thoughtfully as he looked at the disappearing figure outside the tent.  Seeing how his jaw was about to drop, Asantean hurriedly kicked him under the table, and then nuzzled in the direction of Lilith, signaling Lord Rachels to pay attention to the fact that Her Royal Highness the Princess, who was about to go berserk, was still here.

    "Oh, I'm sorry, I was a little distracted. Your Highness, Princess, please calm down. I'm going to tell you about the "Dead One"." After receiving my prompt, Rachel quickly stood up and gave a salute to Her Royal Highness, until he saw Lilith's face softening.  Then he sat down carefully.

    I followed Adria through the neatly arranged tents, and finally saw three guys chatting with the soldiers behind the camp of the carriage team.

    "Stanton! Little Dennis, Garcilas! Did you guys forget the way home?" Looking at these lively guys, my heart that had been hanging for a few days finally fell to the ground.

    "Ah! Diboer!"

    "My lord, the leader!"

    "Lord Dibor!"

    Several guys jumped up happily when they saw me and rushed towards me, but I pushed them away pretending to be angry.

    "Where are the military expenses of the 3rd Army? Let me tell you, if this money is gone, I will let hundreds of brothers eat you alive!"

    "Here, there, there!" After hearing my words, several guys quickly took out their money bags from their bodies.  Stanton hid the money bag on his inner thigh and tied it twice tightly; Dennis Jr. tucked the money on his belly and put three jackets on it; Garcilas went even more outrageous and stuffed the money bag directly into his crotch.  , still hanging like this.  I looked at them all in ragged clothes and covered with scars but with faces full of joy. I couldn't bear it anymore. I rushed forward and held the three beggar-like guys firmly in my arms.  .  .  .  .  .  .  .

    There was no place to change in this camp, so I had to buy some clean clothes from the soldiers for the three of them to wear, and then led them into the command tent.  At this time, Lilith and Rachel had almost finished talking, but seeing me coming, Rachel still took the trouble to repeat it to us, and Stanton also told everyone about their experience in Vader Fortress.  once.

    "The dead" are monsters such as zombies that have died and are possessed by demons. When Stanton and the others were detained, the fortressThe soldiers are still good, and the one named "Aisfan" is still a human being.  "Esfan" originally did not belong to the 5th Army, and the Wade Fortress at that time was indeed garrisoned by the 2nd Regiment of which Viscount "Filkos" was the commander. The day before Stanton and the others passed the fortress, that  The man named "Esfan" brought a dozen of his men to the Vader Fortress. They claimed to be my people from the 3rd Knight Order and hoped to stay in the fortress for one night.  "Felkos" and I had met once, and they warmly entertained "Asfan" and his party immediately. However, in the middle of the night, they sneaked into the meeting hall, secretly assassinated the commander of "Felkos", and blamed Lai Ming.  When the time came, the four Stantons and the soldiers of the fortress learned that their commander had been killed, and they wanted to kill Stanton and the others immediately.  After the angry soldiers caught Stanton and the others, they threw them into the cell in the fortress without asking a question. Only Chicobol escaped during the process.  In the evening of that day, "Aisfan" and his party poisoned the soldiers' food. Before midnight, all the soldiers in the fortress were dead.  What "Aisfan" never expected was that they poisoned the soldiers who delivered meals to the three Stantons, but allowed Stanton and others to escape.

    At midnight, "Aisfan" and his party held a dark summoning ceremony. The demons who came to hell took over the bodies of the dead soldiers, turning the entire Vader Fortress into a dead city.  Three days later, the 7th Regiment of the 5th Army led by Reichs came here to change defenses. After finding that the fortress was occupied, they quickly conducted a reconnaissance attack, and the three Stantons took the opportunity to escape in the chaos.

    After finishing talking about the situation of the past few days, it was already night. We had a hasty dinner and immediately organized a meeting with the officers.  The first person to speak was Baron Reaches, commander of the 7th Wing. He mainly analyzed our combat power against the "Dead". He believed that it was impossible to win this long battle with our current strength.  The other officers and I all agreed, but Lilith refused. She felt that we must fight regardless of whether we can fight or not, because if the "dead" were allowed to grow or escape, the civilians of the empire would be greatly harmed.  hurt, indeed, we have to admit that her words also make sense.  We can't defeat them, because these "dead ones" cannot be killed with our current weapons; it won't work if we don't fight them.  Well, now, the meeting has just begun and everyone is in trouble.

    "I suggest calling in nearby armed forces to support us. No matter what, we still have to fight this battle." Infantry Captain Adria frowned, holding the cup with both hands and breathing in, as if he was cold.

    "Well, I think it's okay. It's not a big problem for Keketa to transfer 300 people. It's no problem for Ganglong to transfer another 300 people. Commander Diboer can also transfer 200 people from the Red Bay Guards. In this way, our total strength will be  That¡¯s about 1,500 people, which is still a certain advantage over the hundreds of ¡°dead people.¡±¡± Captain Rachels was very satisfied with this suggestion and tapped the map on the table from time to time.

    "1,500 people are of no use! Even 15,000 people will die! Without weapons that can kill the "dead", our attack can only be to increase the opponent's strength!" Deputy Knight Squadron of the 7th Regiment  The captain, Lord "Hydeman", slapped the table so hard that the cup in front of me knocked over.

    "Hydeman! Pay attention to your manners!" Reaches was now afraid that Lilith would show off her power, so he quickly reminded the barbarian Hydeman.

    "Dipor, ask Tetrick to get some of the Pope's holy water and sigils. When they arrive, you can attack." Monte, the masked man who had been silent, spoke thoughtfully.  As soon as his words came out, the command tent, which had been full of gunpowder just now, suddenly became quiet.

    "Who is this?" The little Montetier was sitting next to me, surrounded by a group of big men, so Rachel never noticed him.

    "Chief of Staff of the 3rd Knights, Lord Montetier." Lilith stood up and solemnly introduced the great god in her mind to everyone.  The handsome masked man sat carelessly and waved to the officers as a greeting.  However, seeing that he was a figure respected by the princess, no one among the officers dared to say anything.

    "Then let's do this. Master Diboer will send someone to inform His Majesty King Titrik, and Master Reaches will be responsible for dispatching reinforcements. Well, by the way, Diboer, how long will this take?" Lilith made the final decision,  But she couldn't determine the time yet.

    "About 10 days."

    "Okay! Everyone go down and prepare. In 10 days, we will attack!" Lilith punched the table hard and loudly gave the order.

    "Wow! Your Highness Lilith is so beautiful! So charming! Tsk tsk, you are indeed my Lord Stanton's goddess!" Old Stanton outside the tent lay on the shoulder of a guard and peeked at Lilith.  Excitedly giving a look to the stallion in heat.

    "Ouch!" A guard outside the account suddenly shouted.

    "Haha, isn't she beautiful? My friend. But your compliments are enoughexaggerated!  "Stanton didn't care at all, but he was very happy that his goddess was praised.

    "You are so beautiful! You stepped on my foot, Lord Knight!"
