It can be said that Vera has tried his best to account for all possible situations. At least he would never have thought that an originally inconspicuous Vivian would actually bring back Ryan under the pseudonym Fabia. It was this accident. This situation caused Vera to lose everything and had to commit suicide with a knife.
Of course, Adela is not aware of these circumstances. She has now focused all her thoughts on the war situation. Thanks to the efforts of Vivian and the others, they finally occupied the gate of the civilian area a few seconds earlier than Adela's army. , of course, before they had time to close the door, Adela's front troops had already arrived, and a melee immediately began.
100 soldiers surrounded and killed 20 enemies. Both sides can be regarded as the elites of their respective families. In this case, the side with more people naturally has the absolute advantage, so Vivian and the others would have been at a disadvantage from the beginning. If not They barely used the gate to gain a slight terrain advantage, preventing Adela's men from fully deploying. I'm afraid this battle wouldn't last more than a few minutes.
Because the space at the gate was limited, most of Adela's vanguard troops were waiting outside the fence. The captain who led the team briefly observed the surrounding environment, and immediately whispered a few instructions in the ears of the soldiers beside him, and After receiving the order, the men quickly ran to the wooden fence next to the gate.
Soon, a rope as thick as a thumb was firmly tied to the fence. Then more than a dozen people grabbed the rope and dragged it outwards. The wooden fence could not hold on for long. Under the concerted efforts of the soldiers, it slowly It began to fall towards the outside, and Vivian was currently fighting desperately and had no time to care about it.
With a loud bang, a row of wooden fences was forcibly pulled down by the soldiers of Adela's vanguard. A passage that allowed several people to walk side by side also appeared in front of the Saranar family, and Vivian and the others were the only one they could rely on. The advantage disappeared immediately, and soon Vivian and her guards were surrounded by the enemy's superior force.
Seeing that Vivian was surrounded, Adela, who was watching the battle, restrained her sadness and loudly conveyed the order to stay at Vivian. At the same time, she also asked her second team to attack quickly and capture as many as possible. Even if this goal cannot be achieved in the up and down mountain passages of Iron Fist Castle, the opponent must be firmly blocked so that they cannot send troops to rescue Vivian.
After Adela's army entered the civilian area of Iron Fist Castle, the people who had previously dismissed it immediately panicked. They dragged their children and daughters and ran up the mountain crying and shouting, but it was obvious that they could not outrun them. As well-trained soldiers, Adela's soldiers mercilessly chopped down the civilians of the Emilio family who blocked their way forward.
After the massacre of civilians began, the entire civilian area became even more chaotic. Those civilians who had not evacuated before finally regretted it. Many people cried towards the mountains, hoping to be rescued, but now their lord Vivian has already Being surrounded by everyone, and the guards on the mountain were completely at a disadvantage in terms of military strength, how could they rashly go down the mountain to save people
Seeing that the defeat of the Emilio family has been determined, as long as Vivian is captured, the Iron Fist Castle will not be able to hold on for long without a leader. At that time, Adela can step on the enemy's corpse to seize the Iron Fist Castle and complete her brother's death. Vera's plan, but Adela had a strange premonition in her heart. She always felt that things would not go so smoothly, but Adela couldn't figure out what could go wrong.
"Boom." A loud noise attracted Adela's attention. The soldiers she sent to seize the up and down mountain passages of Iron Fist Castle were attacked by magic. The stumps and severed arms of the dozen soldiers who rushed at the front were destroyed by huge The impact was thrown into the air, and the rolling flames even created a city wall, preventing the remaining warriors from moving forward.
It took a full ten seconds for the wall of flames to slowly disappear, and another army of the Emilio family appeared at the foot of the opposite mountain. The leader of the army was recognized by Adela at a glance. It was the man named Fabia who was with Vivian yesterday.
"Kill." Several soldiers under Adela immediately rushed forward waving their weapons, but the man named Fabia just casually shot out a bolt of lightning, directly knocking a soldier to the ground. At this time, Adela finally understood Ryan's true identity, and she blurted out: "Magician."
"Magician." It was not only Adela who shouted this word, but also the female soldier beside her.
Adela turned her head sharply and said to the female soldier: "That magician, are you sure about it?"
Before the female soldier could speak, another male soldier beside her immediately spoke: "Miss Adela, you didn't say there was a magician when you hired us."
Adela looked up and down at the male soldier who was speaking with contempt, and said, "Why, you're scared."
"It's a joke, when have our Sword and Rose mercenary group ever been afraid?" The female soldier couldn't stand the excitement of Adela's words and shouted out,
"Nancy, the regiment leader made it very clear when we came out. If anything happens, the deputy regiment commander Moses will handle it." The male soldier who spoke earlier said in a scolding tone,
"Did I make a mistake?" Nancy, the female mercenary, said unconvinced: "Brother, why are you becoming less and less courageous?"
Yes, these mercenaries are the second largest mercenary group in Seawind City, the Sword and Rose Mercenary Group, and this female mercenary Nancy, her brother male mercenary Nigel, and their deputy The leader of the group, Moses, was the three people who watched Ryan and his party teach the Double Ax mercenary group at the "First Drink" bar in Seawind City.
Since Vera can afford the price, of course the Sword and Rose mercenary group on the seaside will take the trouble to come to Cassano Plain. Of course, their original mission is to protect Adela's safety. La's plan, but now there is a magician among the employer's opponents, and their employer seems to intend to let the Sword and Rose mercenary group solve it, which caused a dispute between Nancy and Nigel,
"Okay, let's stop saying a word." Moses, the deputy leader of the Sword and Rose Mercenary Group, said, "Don't let outsiders laugh."
After hearing the words of deputy leader Moses, Nancy and Nigel stopped arguing. Moses gently controlled the horse and stood side by side with Adela. Moses watched Ryan keep saying three words. Level 3 magic massacred Adela's men and said, "Level 3 magic is about the level of a junior or intermediate magician. It's a bit tricky."
"It's tricky, isn't it?" Adela heard clearly the meaning of Moses' words: "You make an offer."
"An intermediate magician is worth tens of thousands of gold coins." Moses watched Adela's warriors being slaughtered by Ryan, but he slowly asked for a price. Anyway, he was in a hurry now, so he could get the biggest price. Benefit,
Unexpectedly, Adela didn't counter-offer at all and said directly: "Deal."
Adela's reaction stunned Moses, but since he had called out the price and the other party agreed, he could not help but regret it, otherwise the credibility of the entire Sword and Rose Mercenary Group would also be affected.
Moses' face immediately changed his expression. He turned around and said to his team members: "I heard you all. 10,000 gold coins is the price of a level 7 monster. Why don't you hurry up and do it."
Nancy let out a cheer, clamped her legs hard, and the naked horse started running quickly, running directly in the direction of Ryan. Her brother didn't hold her back, so he had to quickly control his horse to follow. Go up,
The sound of horse hooves sounded, and the other four members of the Sword and Rose Mercenary Group followed. However, the route they took was an obvious roundabout, which vaguely cut off Ryan's retreat.
With the Sword and Rose mercenary group to deal with the magician Ryan, Adela focused her energy on Vivian. After all, even if a thousand Ryans died, it would not have much impact on the Iron Fist Castle, and if they were captured alive Vivian, you can use her as a puppet to completely annex the entire Emilio family.
Among the approximately 70,000 people of Emilion, there can be 20,000 strong slaves and no less than 5,000 young women. This is a huge wealth. As for the gold coins spent on hiring, maybe only a little It's more than enough to scrape these slaves.
"Ah." A guard next to Vivian moved slowly and was immediately stabbed by more than a dozen spears. Then his body was lifted into the air by these more than a dozen spears, and then he was thrown heavily to the ground.
Now there are only 4 guards left around Vivian, and each of them has wounds to some extent. Although they and their dead companions also struggled to kill a similar number of enemies, the absolute number of enemies is them. Several times. After such a war of attrition, Vivian and the others were in an even worse environment.
"Lord, please leave quickly, the family cannot live without you." A surviving guard whispered in Vivian's ear: "Kill towards the wooden house, then set it on fire and you can escape in the chaos."
Vivian nodded gently after hearing this. She was the only one here who was unscathed. This was not because Vivian was closely protected by her subordinates, but because the armor on her body was really good. Ordinary There is no effect at all when slashed with weapons. In a melee, the most fearful thing is not being stabbed to death by the enemy. If the difference in force between the two sides is so big, there will be no melee. For the disadvantaged party, the most fearful thing is What's more, he was accidentally attacked by a sneak attack, and his skills became too slow to dodge or block the next attack, so he was shot to death randomly.
Wearing that armor, Vivian was not afraid of being attacked at all. She even took the initiative to rush into the enemy crowd and wield her scimitar to harvest life, and then rushed out and returned to her own position. It was precisely because of her performance that she The guards of the Iron Fist Castle have gained great morale and have persisted until now.
