Not only Ryan, but even Allen Dou was quite surprised, because among the mercenaries who followed Adela, there were actually three members of the Six Arrows mercenary group, including Berry, Tedain and Daphne, who had adventured with them. Behind them, there are more than a dozen teenagers with the unique marks of the Six Arrows Mercenary Group. Their ages range from their 20s to their teens, and many of them have... Full of childishness, these people all looked at Ryan with expressions of reverence, envy, and excitement.
"Hello, Lord Lane..." Seeing that Lane recognized him, Berry took a step forward and said respectfully,
Bury's words made Ryan very unhappy. He waved his hand to stop Bury from continuing, and then said in a very unhappy tone: "Bury, we can be partners in life and death together. If you use this title again, Then I’m going to be angry.”
"That's right, we used to call each other how we call each other, and we still call each other what we call him now. You can call me Alan Duo, and just call him Ryan." Alan Duo also opened his mouth to speak.
"Um... Okay." Burry pondered for a moment, then changed his words and said: "Ryan, Alando, what a surprise. I heard your name before and thought it was the same person. I didn't expect it to be true. It’s you two who are interested. In fact, I already knew that you would become very strong, but this speed is just too fast.”
"Hahahaha, Burry, you are doing well. In just a few years, your mercenary group has expanded a lot. Well, yes, yes, they are all members with great potential." Ryan carefully said He looked at the new members behind Buri and commented casually: "These martial arts are very good... Hey, Bury, this is your student, his archery skills are almost catching up with yours... Ha, you guys must be Daphne's students, you probably already have the strength that Daphne had back then."
With the eyes of the legendary mage Lane, he could naturally see through the strength of these teenagers at a glance, so even if he just made a few casual comments, he was absolutely right. This made the teenagers and young people behind Berry even more excited. They had originally Having heard about that tomb adventure, they couldn't believe that their captain and several key members of the mercenary group were lucky enough to travel with a powerful legendary mage. Now on the battlefield, these people saw with their own eyes that Ryan used The forbidden curse destroyed all his enemies, and he treated himself and his party so kindly. It would be strange if he wasn't excited.
Seeing that Ryan was still looking the same as before, Berry felt a lot more at ease. In fact, what he just said was somewhat untrue. When he was hired by Liberty Paradise, Berry already knew that Ryan and Alando were with him. The two people who took the risk, and he accepted this mercenary mission with the intention of moving his mercenary group to Cassano and becoming a mercenary group headquartered in Iron Fist Castle.
Previously, because the Six Arrows mercenary group had been wandering around, their life was not particularly good. After all, their scale was still a bit small, and they were easily squeezed out by local mercenary groups in big cities like Seawind City and Free Paradise. , which has kept the mercenary group’s income at a level that makes it difficult to continue to expand.
Thanks to the magic scroll presented by Ryan, the newcomers brought by Berry from his hometown have grown up rapidly. Since the members of the entire mercenary group are from the same place, this also makes them very united. This has become a large-scale The minimum prerequisite for a mercenary group, and what Buri lacks is just an opportunity.
Therefore, when Free Paradise recruited mercenaries to fight, Burry simply took the opportunity of this mission to get close to Lane again, hoping to use Lane's help to gain a foothold in Iron Fist Castle so that his mercenary group could develop on a large scale. This also provided Bury with The poor folks in my hometown found a way to get ahead.
Since Bury did not come for money at all this time, when the mercenaries were dizzy and charged, Bury and the others stayed where they were. This also attracted the attention of the coalition commander Adela, who waited until the battle After it was over, Adela naturally wanted to praise these mercenaries for obeying the orders, and Berry and the others had the opportunity to meet Ryan after reporting their homes. Excluding the twenty or so people from the Six Arrows mercenary group, the remaining The more than eighty mercenaries belonging to several other mercenary groups actually had the same idea as Bury, and their wise choices prevented them from becoming the dead souls of this battle.
After chatting for a while, Ryan waited for the officer responsible for statistics of the results. This time, 17,000 Cassano coalition forces fought against more than 40,000 enemies, and finally won the final victory at the cost of more than 4,000 casualties. Although this number reached the coalition forces' A quarter of the total force, but the main part was the mercenary force hired by Free Paradise. In the end, only more than 100 of the 2,000 people were left. It was the 3,000-man army in Wangyue City that accounted for almost half of the casualties. They could face three An enemy who was twice as powerful as oneself persisted until Adela came to the rescue. It can be said that he has fulfilled his responsibility.
As for Senat's losses, it is not possible to provide detailed statistics in a short period of time, because the large mountain forest where Senat's army was stationed was completely turned into a sea of fire, and no one could enter at all. When Ryan's forbidden spell magic completely destroyed After the mountains and forests of the Senat Tibetan Army turned into ashes, the personnel responsible for this matter entered the restricted area on the still hot ground, and the most detailed figures were calculated, but it was already three days later. It's a matter of
In addition, according to the prisoners' accounts, in order to conceal his whereabouts this time, Senat did not concentrate his troops in places with sufficient water sources. Instead, he divided his troops into several parts and stationed them in several nearby deep mountains and forests. This is why Casa The reason why Nuo could never find any trace of Senat’s main force,
There were only a few creeks in the mountain forest where the battle broke out, which could barely provide drinking water for 20,000 warriors. Therefore, there were only 10,000 phalanx infantry and thousands of Clay light cavalry stationed here, and Kailimu and the others were stationed here. The original mission was to delay. According to the plan, they should continuously snipe Cassano's scout troops, causing information on this battlefield to be obscured, and then use their advantage in mobility to harass Cassano's main force, allowing Senat's army to mobilize and win over them. more time,
According to Senat's plan, with a large number of shadow wizards blocking Cassano's magic detection, and with the highly organic Clay light cavalry constantly killing Cassano's scouts, Senat's adventure The strategy of dividing the troops and concealing them is still very certain of success. This period of time will not only allow Senat's soldiers to recover their physical strength and eliminate the fatigue of marching, but also give the 300 shadow wizards more time to prepare more magic arrays. Against Ryan, after all, in terms of the number of troops, Senat has an absolute advantage. Their only enemies can be said to be Ryan and Alando who have reached the legendary realm, so all the arrangements for Senat's attack are centered around How to entangle Ryan and others, and even find ways to snipe them, is naturally different from ordinary battles, which is why this abnormal behavior of dividing troops and hiding occurs.
It's a pity that the powerful Clay light cavalry in the past ran into an iron plate. The Fengxing Archer used his strong defense to take a bite of the bait, and Roger and Letoz attacked from both sides, making Kaili Mu They had no choice but to retreat. If they were direct descendants of Senat, they might be ruthless and would rather fight to death than expose the whereabouts of the main force. However, the relationship between Kailimu and Senat was cooperation rather than subordination. Naturally, he would use Clay The interests of the tribe are paramount, so when Kailim chose to return to the camp and wait for reinforcements, the battle broke out in advance because of a chance encounter between the rangers dispatched by both sides.
When Cassano's main force arrived, Senat had no choice but to fight. He quickly arranged short-distance teleportation magic circles between various camps to summon the 300 shadow wizards together, allowing them to immediately cast spells to summon the powerful It is a magical creature in the legendary realm, and Senat himself came forward in person in the hope of delaying time, but unfortunately he failed.
When the battle broke out at the front, Senat's troops in the rear had to rush over from their base. Among them, 30,000 people were stationed so far away that when they arrived, they happened to run into it. The area covered by Ryan's "Star Burning" became a victim of this forbidden fire spell.
As for Senat, who successfully escaped under the protection of his cronies, he unexpectedly encountered his follow-up troops after hurriedly escaping into the Valo Mountains. As a result, this army that had not had time to join the battle immediately turned around and returned along the original road, and then After the battle, the defeated troops were gathered together, and Senat's 100,000 elites finally saved more than 40,000 people. It can be regarded as a great blessing among misfortunes.
Ryan took everyone back to the camp. After settling Berry and the others, he came to Alando's residence alone. As soon as he walked into Alando's tent, Ryan immediately smelled the strong smell of herbs, and Alan Duozheng was soaking in a large wooden barrel. The barrel was full of dark green juice, which made people look very uncomfortable.
Seeing Ryan looking for him, Allen pointed to the barrel under him and said, "You came just in time. Please, please, help heat up this concoction."
Ryan laughed dumbly. He raised his hand and put it on the barrel, slowly injecting the water element into it. Within a few breaths, the dark green juice in the barrel began to bubble with steaming water, and Alan Dou His face also became paler,
"What's going on?" It was also the first time for Ryan to see Allendo being so severely traumatized. He couldn't help but ask,
"The three Druid masters have all been turned into undead creatures." Even though Ryan had good concentration, he was still startled by Allendo's words, but he soon woke up and helped Ai again. Londo heated the soaked concoction, and then waited for Londo to continue,
"They probably lost the ability to transform, but they gained more terrifying dark power. Their bodies exuded the breath of death, and their weapons were full of corrosive curses." Alando squinted his eyes and recalled the previous battle. Experience, he said slowly: "But these are not enough to cause me to be hit so hard. The person who used some kind of skull-like magic to sneak attack me is the most terrifying."
"It looks like a skeleton. Could it be the evil skeleton explosion, the magic used by the demigod lich back then." Ryan cried out.
