Somehow, Knight Gray seemed to have been blessed by the gods, allowing Fang Yuan to successfully search the antidote from Jamal's body.
However, while applying it internally and externally, one of his face had turned pitch black and his whole body had a low fever.
"Damn it Jamal!"
Gray was still in good spirits. Perhaps because of the physique of a fighter, the antidote took effect very quickly. Not long after, he cursed in anger: "If he is still alive, I will crush his head! I swear!" !”
"Uh-huh!"
Fang Yuan was in a good mood while drinking the broth.
Although this Whistling Territory has lost the villa and many internal documents, the warehouses and other items are still well preserved, and the stored materials are also very rich.
These are his wealth.
"not good!!!"
On the contrary, Gray, after being dizzy for a while, suddenly thought of something and almost jumped up: "The Baron is in danger! We must go to support immediately!"
Since Knight Frey has already prepared, and even an enclave under his jurisdiction has traps, the main force of the Baron is naturally even more pessimistic!
"I know this, but unfortunately, it has already happened!"
Fang Yuan made a regretful expression and handed over a piece of paper: "The news just came from the raven. The Baron suffered a disastrous defeat. Even Matus died in the battle!"
…
Time moves forward slightly.
Freyland, on a small plain.
Baron Shawshank led three knights and an army of nearly a thousand men. Master Heim covered his face and followed him with his head hidden.
This kind of lineup is just used to defeat a small jazz. It is simply a small test. No one will find it surprising.
Unfortunately, sometimes, the god of fate always likes to joke with mortals.
Baron Frey, who had received the information in advance, had already summoned all the strength under his command, obtained assistance from mysterious forces, and laid many traps.
At this time, more than 700 soldiers gathered on the plain.
This number and lineup has exceeded Baron Shawshank's expectations.
"Damn Hightower, even the family's private soldiers have been completely used by the opponent!" Baron Shawshank held the monocular telescope and looked at the military formation not far away, seeming a little hesitant: "Haim... Should we temporarily Retreat and wait for the other knights to join up, especially Rune, his ability will be very useful!"
After all, he was just a baron who grew up in a peaceful era. He was fine with making small fuss, but at such a fateful moment, he would inevitably worry about gains and losses.
"Absolutely not, Lord Baron!"
Although Heim is a mage, he also knows the absurdity: "If you don't talk about how to organize the retreat of these more than a thousand people and ensure that the enemy does not pursue them, even if you can successfully leave, you will be very passive in the future."
If a baron is scared away by a knight in despair, he will definitely become a big joke.
Even nobles would be ashamed of it.
In the joint meeting of nobles, sometimes even Grand Duke Stan's orders are not implemented.
After changing the direction of the wind, it is entirely possible to confuse right and wrong, and even be labeled as a traitor!
"At this point, we can only try our best to defeat the opponent!"
Heim said solemnly: "The opponent only has 700 people, we have 900, and there are reinforcements on the outside. This is our advantage! Even if there is a stalemate, when the knights on the outside sweep other strongholds, the opponent's camp will collapse ”
"Also... I can also cast spells to help your army!"
It has to be said that many of this mage's suggestions are not without purpose.
It's just that he overestimated the Baron's strength and underestimated Frey's power.
This comprehensive gap cannot be changed by a mere mage.
"attack!"
Just as the horns were blowing in the military formations on both sides, and the knights were urging their horses to prepare for the charge, Heim was also preparing the only large-scale spell he knew - the wind spell!
This technique can set off a gust of wind, blowing away sand and rocks. The most important thing is that the range is wide enough to cover the entire battlefield!
Once the attacker encounters a headwind, how embarrassing will it be to deal with the enemy's sword while being blinded by the wind and sand
Therefore, this is a spell that can change the outcome of a small war, and it was through this spell that Heim was able to be accepted as a court mage.
At this time, as he sang, the breeze surged around him, and the magic was about to take shape.
call out!
Suddenly, a holy light suddenly emerged from Baron Frey's camp and rushed straight into the strong wind.
"Counterspell? Priest!"
Haim's expression changed, he screamed, and fell directly from his horse.
In this world, only priests have the ability to interrupt other people's spells.
Of course, the most important thing is to interrupt advanced spells like Gust, and the level of the priest cannot be too low!
It is not surprising that Heim himself suffered backlash.
Once such a large-scale spell is forced to stop, how much damage will it cause? It didn't directly cause him to fall, it was already because his character was strong enough.
"Priest?!"
But when Baron Shawshank saw this scene, his hands and feet went cold for an instant.
High-level priests cannot be created by some random evil sect.
The only possibility is that there is a true god standing behind the other party! Even, perhaps, those genuine churches!
The next moment, with the blessing of the priest's magical light, the two armies collided fiercely.
There is no doubt that the baron's army fell into a rout.
"God made them brave! They became fearless! They became unafraid of death..."
Not far away, Daniel looked at this scene calmly, but there was no wave on his face.
His appearance means that in this war, the Death Church has stood on the opposite side of the official office.
In fact, not only the Church of Death, but as far as he knew, there were several other churches that had begun to contact Frey and other nobles who opposed the royal family.
When the Nott Kingdom's army arrives, all these relationships will come to light.
Grand Duke Stan seemed to be aware of it, so he took this action.
Unfortunately, he overestimated his own strength and the loyalty of his nobles.
At this time, with the defeat of the Baron's side, a large number of deaths occurred instantly, and many souls emerged.
"Praise you, my lord Hess, you rule the underworld, the destination of all souls!"
Seeing this scene, Bishop Daniel couldn't help but close his eyes and pray.
Suddenly, a world of nothingness opened up, accommodating the innocent souls.
This is the underworld, the resting place of the dead, and the location of Hess’s divine realm.
Even a true god's kingdom only occupies a small part of the underworld. There are still many secrets in the depths of the underworld, waiting for adventurers to explore.
…
When Fang Yuan got the news and rushed back to the Baron's castle, the situation had almost deteriorated beyond repair.
"grown ups!"
In the castle, mourning was everywhere, and rumors that Frey's army was about to attack were spreading everywhere, causing a commotion every time.
But what is most worrying is the body of Lord Baron.
Ever since his defeat on the battlefield and the loss of his heir, the Baron has been ill and has not been able to leave his bed until now.
But Fang Yuan was not an ordinary person after all. After the announcement, he was immediately received by Baron Shawshank.
"Run, Gray..."
Looking at the two knights, the baron smiled bitterly: "It's so good to see you..."
This time he suffered heavy losses. Even two of the knights who accompanied the army died, and his power suddenly fell into a low ebb.
"Sorry, Lord Baron..."
Gray knelt down on one knee: "We fell into the enemy's trap at Whistling Manor, and my men also lost more than forty people!"
"Enough bad news...ahem!"
Baron Shawshank seemed to want to get up, but this action exhausted all his strength and caused him to fall into a violent cough: "There is also the Council of Nobles... those bully and fearful people, at this time, they actually announced that I got a 'miserable life' , Frey fought back in self-defense, not guilty!”
"Lord Baron, please take care of yourself no matter what!"
Fang Yuan gave a few words of comfort, but when he saw that Baron Shawshank wanted to see him off, he immediately stood up and left.
In the bedroom, only Sir Gray and the Baron were left.
"Sir...has the situation reached this point?"
The Gray Knight was in a daze. Before, the situation was clearly good, how could it suddenly become like this
"In fact... it's even worse... Ahem... This operation was thwarted, and none of the goals expected by the Grand Duke were achieved... Ahem..."
Baron Shawshank coughed violently, and a large blush appeared on the handkerchief covering his mouth: "Even...several churches have completely fallen to the opposition. Even if our Archduke cannot withstand this pressure and compromises, it is still possible!"
"Once this happens, we will be very passive..."
The Gray Knights looked very ugly. Once this happens, they will most likely be thrown out as scapegoats.
"We must plan a counterattack, at least we can't fall into this sad situation!!" Knight Gray clenched his fists and suddenly looked at the Baron: "The matter of Master Matus..."
"I have decided to make Timo my heir!"
Baron Shawshank closed his eyes and half leaned on the bed: "Also, what do you think of Rune?"
"Very powerful... and also very good at governance!"
Gray thought of the Gars gang who had strict orders, and said sincerely: "Moreover, his strength seems to have improved again, and he is worthy of being the descendant of the Hand of Death."
"I mean… "
Baron Shawshank thought for a moment: "Tanya has grown up, but there is no suitable young man... They are a perfect match, aren't they?"
"I understand, I will choose the time to mention it to Lu En."
Gray Knight nodded.
At this time, they really need to unite all their forces, especially to win over this future quasi-legend!
