Assassin’s Chronicle

Chapter 394: Ambition

Views:

Whether it was the mercenaries under Ozguch and Simpera or Wendorf's men who were aware of the current tense situation and were mentally prepared for the worst, the riots in the southern part of Shuklan City lit the fuse, and the entire city A big fight broke out immediately, but this fight broke out quickly and ended even faster.

Susanna never joined the battle. In layman's terms, a peak powerhouse is already a strategic weapon. Its greater role is to form a deterrent at the strategic level. To evaluate the combat effectiveness of a peak powerhouse, you cannot judge how many people it can kill. The key to setting off is how scared you can be.

Susanna only made one turn in Shuklan City, which was exactly one full circle. Wherever she passed, the mercenaries under Ozguch and Simpera let out cheers like landslides and tsunamis. Their morale soared, and their combat effectiveness also increased significantly. The mercenaries in Shuklan City quickly lost their fighting spirit. When the news came that Wendorf had been killed, they laid down their weapons in droves and surrendered to the Grand Alliance.

The light knights and priests who were surprised and happy and rushed out to try to stop the conflict were also shocked. They had been waiting for this opportunity. If the mercenaries from the two sides fought, they could reap the benefits. It can take the opportunity to weaken the strength of the major alliance, and on the other hand, it can win over a group of desperate allies and completely open up the situation of the mercenary country. But the appearance of Susanna shattered their unrealistic dreams. In Shuklan City, no one can compete with Susanna, and there is no so-called balance. In the end, their only choice is to remain silent.

When Susanna fell next to An Fei, the shouts of killing in Shuklan City had gradually subsided. An Fei looked at the bright knights who were retreating in despair, turned to the person behind him and said: "Warner, you didn't cause other people's anger." Pay attention, right?"

"Sir, I've been hiding like a mouse all day long. How could anyone notice me?" Warner, who was wearing leather armor, said with a wry smile.

"Don't worry." An Fei said softly: "After a while, I will send away those light knights and priests, and then it will be up to you."

"Right now...I can't cope with large-scale battles." Warner hesitated, then hurriedly added: "But as long as I redeem more undead, the power of the Scroll of Redemption will be greater. If you give me a certain amount of time, I will ..." Halfway through his words, Warner saw An Fei's eyes and suddenly became alert, unable to say what he wanted to say.

"Don't worry." An Fei smiled: "I won't be jealous of your achievements."

"Sir, your mind is broader than the world." Warner said with a smile. As for whether he really believed An Fei's words, it's hard to say.

"I am always very generous to my friends." An Fei said lightly: "Pope William is already old. Those in the Holy See have prejudices against me. It can even be said that they may become my enemies. Rather than let them If you want to be the boss, why don't you help my friend go up."

"But...I'm only one person."

"Remember what I told you before. When Holy Spirit Robin was born, there was only one person." An Fei smiled.

Warner nodded slowly. Although his face was heavy, the excitement flashing in his eyes had revealed his true thoughts. His ambition had been ignited by An Fei long ago, and now he deliberately shirks it just to show his humility. Otherwise, how could he make demands of An Fei and try to stand alone!

An Fei seemed not to notice anything and changed the subject casually: "Warner. Why didn't you come to me before?"

"Sir, I had just received the Scroll of Salvation at that time. Apart from mastering the spells, I knew almost nothing." Warner said with a bitter smile: "These days, I really have nothing to do, and you are not allowed to go out to spread the teachings. So I had no choice but to study the Scroll of Redemption by myself. The Scroll of Redemption was full of divine and earthly characters, which I couldn’t understand at first. Later, I asked Mr. Ye for help and bought a textbook from a priest at a high price. After translating every text, I discovered the secret of the Scroll of Salvation.”

"Bibles and scriptures seem to be necessary for priests, right? Have you not had them before?"

"I don't know where I lost it when I was attacked last time."

"Warner, in the future...be more careful when doing things." An Fei said softly: "If you had understood the power of the Scroll of Redemption earlier, you would have been able to show off your skills in Moramachi Town. Why wait until now?"

"At that time..."

"At that time you were busy preaching to the dwarves." Ye continued with a smile.

Warner coughed dryly, rolled his eyes, and suddenly remembered an excellent reason: "Sir, I couldn't study the Scroll of Redemption at that time. Master Ye bought the academic book for me later, and I only understand the Scroll of Redemption now. The secret...maybe it’s fate.”

An Fei smiled and said nothing more. The situation in Shuklan City had stabilized during the conversation, and the operation of recruiting mercenaries in the city would no longer face any challenges. Just like a snowball, every time he supports a city and digests a batch of mercenaries, his strength will increase. Although it is a little difficult at the beginning because his strength is originally very limited, when thousands of mercenaries are gathered together, Apart from soldiers, nothing can stop him, not even the three super mercenary groups. As for Marino’s Brothers Alliance mercenary group, they are his allies.

Excluded by An Fei.

From this point of view, conquering the entire mercenary country was something that was just around the corner. An Fei felt a surge of pride in his chest, but in the current chaotic situation, An Fei was not the only one with ambitions.

In the Shansha Empire, under the Kurmarachon Pass, more than 200,000 troops formed a neat formation, quietly waiting for the city gate to open. More than 200,000 people gathered together, and no one moved or made any noise, which was in sharp contrast to the shouts and neighs of the people on the top of the city.

The city gate slowly opened, but after more than a hundred knights rushed out, the suspension bridge was pulled up by the soldiers at the head of the city. When they rushed to the military formation, the leading knight reined in his horse and shouted loudly: "General Sejialan , what do you mean?"

"General Quebel, can you open the city gate?" Sejialan in front of the military formation slowly took off his helmet, and a ball of long golden hair fell down like a wave. Although his tone and expression were very natural, Calm, but her eyes are more or less tired, giving people a sense of vicissitudes of life. Weirdly, her appearance also gives people a sense of flamboyant youth, which seems very contradictory when combined with that sense of vicissitudes of life. .

Seeing Se Jialan's appearance, the leading knight was obviously stunned. Se Jialan became famous for a short time, and this was the first time he saw Se Jialan in person. Although he knew that Se Jialan was an extremely beautiful woman, But the suffocating youth that hit him still made him lose his mind. First of all, he didn't expect that Se Jialan's beauty was still rumored. Secondly, he didn't expect that Se Jialan was so young. He couldn't imagine how such a little girl could make an army of more than 200,000 people obey her!

"General Sejialan, as far as I know, you should lead your army to the northeast to save the refugees who have been devastated by undead creatures, and should not appear here." The knight slowed down and said to such a Little girl, he really couldn't bear to speak in a harsh tone.

"General Quebel, what I want to save is a country, not refugees in a certain area. Open the city gate. This is my request." Sejialan said slowly.

Quibell looked dumbfounded. Such a little girl actually said she wanted to save a country? He had a nondescript feeling. What was needed to protect the country were warriors. A little girl should act like a spoiled child around her parents, or try to be a social butterfly at the dance. This was not the place she should be. Quebel thought for a moment and smiled: "General Sejialan, do you have any orders from His Majesty?"

"Not yet."

"Not yet? Then... come back after you get His Majesty's order."

"General Quebel, it will be too late by then." Sejialan showed a helpless smile, and the sense of vicissitudes she gave people was even stronger: "Beieri still doesn't know the whereabouts of our army. If By the time he reacts, everything will be meaningless."

"Beeri?" Quebel almost laughed out loud. As a military god of the generation, would Beeri care about the whereabouts of this little girl like you? What a joke!

"General Quebel, His Highness Kierik knows what I am doing. Do you think...can you please be accommodating?" Sejialan saw Quebel's contempt, but she did not refute anything, she just abandoned her fiancé. out.

Quebell's face became solemn. Kierik was the first in line to succeed, and the little girl he looked down upon would become the queen of the empire. This face was irrefutable, but the problem was... secretly mobilizing more than 200,000 troops. Ah, how to be accommodating? If something happens, His Majesty will never kill his daughter-in-law, then the blame will be borne by him, and some words should be discussed alone. A little girl is a little girl after all. She doesn’t even know how to choose an occasion. There are so many People listened and watched, and when they heard Kierik's name, they were subdued, and he looked a little embarrassed.

"It still doesn't work...I understand." Se Jialan sighed softly and threw away his helmet with his backhand. Just when Quebel showed a look of astonishment, a group of fighting spirit lit up on Se Jialan's body. It hit Quibell like lightning, with the knight's spear pointed at Quibell's chest.

"You're crazy!" Quebel shouted as he hurriedly took off his knight's spear. Before the two knight's spears clashed, the two people's eyes collided with each other. Quebel suddenly felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. What kind of eyes are they! There is something inexplicable burning in Sejialan's eyes and even in his sight. It is a crazy expression of the will of millions of people, just like the actual will can melt steel and melt his back. His majestic pass can even melt everything. Quebel suddenly understood that even if His Majesty stood in front of him, Se Jialan would rush over His Majesty's body without hesitation. Nothing could stop Se Jialan's steps.

With a bang, the knight's gun in Quebel's hand was shattered into pieces. The next moment, a blood hole the size of a bowl appeared on his chest. When his body flew into the air, he saw that Se Jialan's personal guards had spread out. There was a bloody charge, and the siege trumpet was sounded in the military formation.

At the moment of death, Quebel finally understood why Bai Jialan was able to conquer hundreds of thousands of troops, but he was unable to change anything.
