There is a fresh smell everywhere in the Cassano Plain in the early morning. Although it is still winter, Cassano, which is like spring all year round, already has a vague breath of spring. Unlike the city of Fernando in the north, even here in Cassano It’s the coldest time of the year and it’s still lush and green, with no heavy snowfall at all.
A patrol team rode on a war horse and ran on the plain with a solemn expression. They already knew what happened last night. For ordinary soldiers like this, this kind of thing is definitely very angry. Someone actually assassinated them openly. The mistress, and she even escaped in a grand manner after the assassination. Is there anything more outrageous than this
"Captain, who did it?" On horseback, a young man no more than ten years old asked loudly,
"Hmph, Bannon, you are so stupid. Who else could it be? It must be the Senat who failed last time." A soldier with a big beard next to him said disapprovingly.
"Shut up, everyone. We are on duty, not chatting in the bar." The captain, who was running at the front of the entire cavalry team, turned back and glared at his subordinates fiercely, and said in a scolding tone: "Please pay attention, maybe we can still We will meet those accomplices of the attackers. As you are so careless now, if you disgrace our Cassano, I will deal with you first without being punished by Mr. Roger."
"Yes, captain." More than a dozen members of the patrol team shouted in unison. Although Cassano already has two horse farms, the only people in the army who can equip horses besides the three elite teams are scouts and patrol teams. , and other troops are absolutely very harsh in the selection of members, so every soldier who is lucky enough to join the patrol team has a sense of honor. The last thing they can tolerate is to be underestimated by others or fail in action.
"Hey, that's not right, captain, listen." Another team member cried out.
The captain of the patrol also noticed that something was wrong. Although he was riding on horseback, the vibrations coming from the ground were quite obvious. It was obvious that there was a huge army advancing in the distance, otherwise it would not have had such a strong effect. When he thought of this, the captain quickly grabbed the galloping horse. He jumped off before the horse could stand firmly, put his ears on the turf on the ground, and listened quietly.
The vibrations in the distance are becoming more and more obvious, and the intensity of the vibrations is getting stronger and stronger. If there are only a few hundred people, they cannot reach this level. Based on the experience of the captain, an army that can reach this level during a normal march , the number is at least more than 3,000, and this is definitely terrible news: without Cassano knowing anything, an army of thousands of people with unknown enemies and friends came to their hinterland. Obviously, the other party was not here for vacation.
"Bannon, you immediately go back with a few people to report the news." The captain called out the names of several young men without hesitation: "Immediately pass the news to Lord Roger, and then he will pass it on to Mother Arad. Sir, leave quickly."
"No, running away from battle is not our style..." Before Bannon could finish his sentence, the captain slapped him hard in the face. Bannon's two front teeth flew out, and the captain grabbed Bannon's On his chest, he cursed vulgarly: "Fuck you, you want us to be wiped out, and then Cassano is attacked by the enemy. This is an order, leave quickly."
Bannon and the others, whose names were called by the captain, had tears in their eyes. They looked at the captain and the others deeply and turned around and ran away without hesitation. The captain looked at the retreating figures of Bannon and the others and said softly: " 2 front teeth, hey, Bannon, don’t blame me, you are the youngest here, and you still have a lot of days to live.”
After the captain said this, he turned to his subordinates and said, "Let's go and see who is so bold."
"Yes, you actually dare to challenge our Cassano."
"Although we are small in number, we cannot lose the power of Cassano."
"It's a pity that I can't see my son anymore, but Lord Ryan will definitely take good care of their mother and son. It would be better if my son can learn magic from Lord Ryan when he grows up."
"Go to hell, your wife hasn't given birth yet, how do you know it's a boy?"
The captain looked at his men talking and laughing, as if they didn't care about life and death at all, so he yelled: "Let's go, let's hold them back. Brothers, I owe you today, and I probably won't be able to pay it back."
"Let's go." Everyone laughed in unison, followed their captain and rushed to the voice for help. When they climbed over a small hill, they immediately saw an unforgettable scene:
A metal demon statue that was five meters high strode towards them, and behind this demon statue, there were only three demon statues made of soil. Their weight was so heavy that As for every step he takes, the whole earth will tremble, as if thousands of people are moving forward quickly.
"Boss, it seems you are mistaken. Are there really thousands of people here?" The bearded guy stared blankly at Ryan sitting on the shoulders of the metal golem, and said to their captain,
"What the hell is this?" The captain's face turned slightly red. He was obviously ashamed that he had misunderstood the situation of the enemy. However, such a huge statue could actually walk on its own. Obviously, it was definitely not simple. Maybe the one sitting on its shoulders was This guy is the one running all this,
"Hey, stop quickly." The captain ran down the hill on horseback. He ran in the direction of the golem and shouted: "Do you know where this place is? How dare you lead these bulky guys around so arrogantly?" run."
Seeing someone running over to question, Elf Queen Freya, who was sitting on the shoulders of the golem, smiled at Ryan and said to the latter: "It looks like he is one of your men. Why can't I even recognize you?" You wouldn’t lie to me, right?”
Ryan, who was sitting on the other side, smiled awkwardly and explained: "It's normal not to know me. Do tens of thousands of elves know you?"
"Hehe, of course we all know each other." Fulia said with a smile: "To be honest, there is really no member of the Elf clan who doesn't know me, because they all grew up in Demon Moon City, and in their When they were young, I would baptize them, which is also the custom of our elves."
"Haha, the weather is really nice today, um, the air is so fresh..." Ryan's face turned slightly red and he started to change the topic, and Fulia had already known about Ryan's little character during the time she spent with him. As a small trick, he pursed his lips and smiled, and did not continue to delve into this topic. Instead, he said to Ryan: "Now that someone else is coming, you can deal with it. Anyway, this piece of jewelry on my body can give me permanent invisibility." , they can’t see me.”
Ryan nodded slightly and turned his attention to the captain of the patrol who was running towards him. He saw a hint of fear in his eyes. After all, a huge movable statue was something that people had never heard of, but this man wearing the captain's uniform Still bravely came forward, and kept using words to stop himself from moving forward, which made Ryan feel slightly proud.
"Hey, I'm talking about you, stop now." The captain clearly felt the uneasiness of the war horse. He gently stroked the war horse's neck and tried to comfort it as much as possible. At the same time, he took a deep breath to get rid of the fear in his heart. Make sure that every word you shout is quite smooth and does not give people the feeling that you are scared.
"Whose subordinate are you, Adela, Vivian, Adams, or Moses' Sheriff's Department?" Ryan flicked his fingers and gave the order to stop. He sat on the golem and asked condescendingly: "Bacon Our racecourse can actually equip the army with war horses, isn’t it said that it will take a few years?”
"Huh." The captain's face changed color slightly. He never expected that the other party was so familiar with Cassano's inside story, so he pulled out his sword without hesitation, pointed at Ryan and said, "Who are you? What’s the purpose of trying to find out about our Cassano?”
Seeing the captain pull out his long sword, the team members who were standing on the hill drew their weapons without hesitation. They urged their horses to run down. At this moment, the friendship and confrontation between the troops were all over the place. The love of their hometown Cassano made them abandon their fear of the unknown.
"Not bad, not bad." Ryan nodded with satisfaction. He was quite satisfied that his men could do this. However, none of the people in front of him knew who they were. Ryan also had a lot of affection for Adela and the others. There are some slanders, but they have forgotten that since the unification of Cassano, he has rarely appeared in front of the public, and there are even fewer people who can really see Ryan's appearance up close, and among the rumors about Cassano, there are no The incompetent Ryan has long been a myth, and the appearances of various legendary gods have been added to him. I really don’t know what kind of terrifying appearance Ryan would look like if he were painted according to the appearance described in those rumors.
The patrol captain saw Ryan talking to himself and did not take himself to heart at all. He was even more angry. He said loudly: "Maybe you are strong, but you should not despise us Cassano like this. Young man, than You are still far from our Lord, tell me quickly, what are your intentions for coming here?"
For such loyal subordinates, it was too late for Ryan to be happy, and how could he use force to make them surrender, so he rubbed his nose and prepared to reveal his identity to the other party, but when the two sides were in a stalemate, something suddenly appeared in the distance. There was a billowing smoke,
Ryan was facing the direction of Iron Fist Castle, so he saw the thick smoke rising immediately. The patrol captain who saw the thick smoke a little later laughed and said: "Young man, the news of your arrival has been It has been spread out, if you plan to do harm to our Cassano, you should first ask our Cassano’s three elite troops.”
Ryan shook his head in distress. He knew that when the fireworks that meant the enemy was coming rose, the entire Cassano would be in a state of combat readiness, and the three elite troops he had personally built would also be dispatched. It seemed that this was the case It was a big deal, but he was just too lazy to walk, so he summoned a demon to walk instead. Is there any need to do this
