The torches were on, and in the evening in Finks Village, the villagers basically stayed at home obediently, so the scouts in Nolan Village moved smoothly—not long after, 70% of the village’s houses appeared A lot of figures had apparently been notified. Rody looked intently and found Luge holding a torch. He was about to walk over, but stopped abruptly.
He squinted his eyes, looked forward with some doubts, and swallowed his saliva involuntarily.
Right in front of Luge, a young man was saying something with a serious face. The opponent was more than half a head taller than Luge, but his upper body was strong but not bloated. The sword was on the right, which proved that he was left-handed. Wearing a second lieutenant badge on his chest, he is obviously the leader of the scouts in Finks Village.
At this moment, he frowned, as if he didn't want to believe the contents of the parchment in Luge's hand in front of him, he shook his head and waved his hands frequently, his expression a little ugly.
"I remember...Second Lieutenant Sodin doesn't seem to know how to write?"
Ruger's expression changed at the young man's words.
"We don't have more time to talk nonsense. If the villagers are not allowed to evacuate today, tomorrow a squadron of orcs will bloodbath this place into ruins. Would you like to see this scene?!"
Luge is not stupid, he actually understands that the forged letter from Second Lieutenant Sodin in his hand is not very convincing, so he can only bluff and bluff to let the other party make a decision-to be honest, he has no strategy in his heart for the orcs to gather troops to attack a Worthy Village expressed doubts, but thinking of Rody's serious face when he spoke, he finally chose to believe it, but the stupid big man in front of him seemed to see the flaw.
It's really troublesome.
Luge was a little anxious and wanted to say something, but just when he saw that Rody had walked out of the manor, the young leader came to them with a strange expression, as if he had seen something unbelievable, and stared at him with a frown. Looking at the second scout lieutenant of Finks Village in front of him, he finally asked a question hesitantly—
"Soderol?"
The big man turned his head, frowned and looked at the guy with a strange expression in front of him. Although he didn't understand why the other party looked at him like that, he still nodded and replied, "It's me, we met before?"
More than just seen.
After getting an affirmative answer, Rody was shocked—but what followed immediately was a little sad.
In the game world before his rebirth, there were countless well-known heroes in "Cracked Earth", and Soderol was one of the most dazzling heroes.
He used to be the supreme commander of the rebel army, and one of the few powerful existences whose strength broke through the advanced professional level of 60, and he was also a legendary general with a victory rate of more than 90% on the battlefield!
But the countless dazzling halos gradually faded after his despicable assassination. The rebel army lost a general, and was betrayed by "friendly troops" repeatedly, and finally defeated.
Luo Di is a witness to the entire history, and even witnessed the whole process of this general from his emergence to his fall. But he never imagined that the once legendary figure, at this moment, was actually close to his own status. Just a scout captain in a frontier town
If he hadn't really been reborn from that era, I'm afraid Rody himself wouldn't have believed it.
"I—I've heard of your name. Let me introduce myself. I'm Rody, the scout captain of Nolan Village...Second Lieutenant Sodin was injured during the battle with the orcs and couldn't come here in person, so let's hurry up Come to report this information." He casually made up a lie, but after thinking about it, he added: "In the past three days, we have killed more than 30 orcs and raided a camp. This information was obtained by accident, because There's an orc who speaks blingar."
Luo Di remembered the analysis and various introduction articles on the former legion commander on the forum, and knew that he was careful, so he quickly listed the evidence and reasons, in order to block all doubts in a short time, and strive to get the other party to cooperate as soon as possible own actions.
"Kill more than thirty orcs...?"
Soderol raised his eyebrows. Anyone who heard the news that the scouts could do this would be shocked, but obviously he did not give up his vigilance at this time, and it could even be said that his calmness was a bit outrageous.
"Seven casualties, heavy losses, but fortunately the orcs suffered even worse losses." Rody thought for a while, and immediately took out the real grass sandpaper in his hand with the moment of the enemy's attack written on it, and handed it to Sodero without hesitation. Erdao: "This was found from that orc."
Does Soderol know these words
Perhaps even the scouts in the entire Funks village would not know that Rody's ability to recognize orc characters was first popularized by Soderol's order, and Soderol himself was the first military general who could recognize orc characters —Rody has reason to believe that even if Sodlor will not be as powerful and wise as he remembers now, he must have his own way to judge some clues.
"letter?"
Suo Deluoer took it, the first thing was not to recognize the words, but to rub the papyrus against the firelight—squinting his eyes for a few seconds, then staring at the words and comparing them with each other, a minute later, this The scout frowned slightly, but his face became more tense...
Raising his hand, he handed the letter back to Roddy, and asked directly, "I believe your words, what do I need to do now?"
The scene was silent for a moment, Luge opened his mouth wide, not hiding his shock, because they all knew that the text of the letter was written in the orc language... and to them, the orc language is completely a bible!
Now the other party only took a few glances and completely believed Rody's words, let alone his ability to judge orc characters, but even this courage is unprecedented.
It really was that evil guy.
While Rody was overjoyed, he was also filled with admiration—although Soderol in front of him was only a young second lieutenant. But under such circumstances, he can still calmly analyze and make decisions, which is really...
The corner of his mouth twitched a little. Rody didn't want to have a bad relationship with this kind of guy. Later generations himself participated in several foreign wars organized by the other party. He had a deep understanding of the iron blood and strength of this general.
At this moment, Suo Deluoer decided to cooperate, and Rody did not pretend to refuse anything. He looked at the team that was about to enter the village in the distance, and arranged clearly: "The orcs will attack tomorrow, so our actions must be Be quick—and meet no resistance!"
"Rug—"
Ruger, who was named, immediately stood at attention, and the sound of his heels hitting was extremely crisp.
"Let the team members continue to assist the villagers to leave, don't take extra things, and there must be no one left here before midnight."
"yes!"
He immediately turned around and trotted away, and then only Rody and Soderol were left face to face—looking at the young man in front of him who he could only look up to, but now he was only a second lieutenant, Rody hesitated for half a second and then solemnly After giving the military salute, he immediately said, "I'm going to persuade Steward Hall and Miss Sally, but I don't expect to succeed. So if there is any dispute, try to keep your people from coming over."
Soderol squinted his eyes. He lowered his head and stared at the scout whom he had met for the first time. He seemed to be considering and weighing something. Finally, he nodded silently, returned the military salute, and turned towards his subordinates.
"call."
Roddy breathed a sigh of relief.
Even though Soderol doesn't have the decisive temperament of a general like he did in the future, but Luo Di finds that he can't seem to get rid of the "past" completely. Or the impact of that "future" that has become blurred.
Looking back, in the dim light, the housekeeper Hall was furious at several servants who looked terrified, because he finally discovered the movement of the villagers collectively packing their bags. He was sweating profusely, but he couldn't stop the Duke's daughter, Miss Sally, from riding a horse to the front.
"Hello, Butler Hall."
Sally, the duke's daughter, came to Hall and dismounted gracefully. Although the duke's daughter was young, she was very imposing when she came to meet her. In the light of the torch, she saluted politely. When she raised her head, her eyes flickered slightly. She seemed a little surprised and curious, and asked softly: "Finks Village Do you want to migrate collectively today?"
Her tone was just a simple question, but it sounded like a question to the butler, which made his back sweat suddenly, and he stammered: "Miss Sally, I... this... the villagers seem to be— them…"
Hall couldn't speak a complete sentence for a long time, but at this moment, a voice he absolutely didn't want to hear sounded in his ears—
"Rody, the captain of Nolan Village's second scout team, wishes to report a piece of news to the respected Miss Sally."
Village, scout, captain. These three words are destined to be spoken by people who are so humble that they are no different from ordinary people. In the view of Hall, the housekeeper of Funks Village, this unknown snack queen simply treats himself as air...
He was already in a depressed mood after encountering unlucky things one after another, but he was interrupted again at this time, and immediately turned his head angrily and shouted——
"Who are you? What qualifications do you have to stand here and speak?! When did the scouts from Nolan Village need to report the situation here?"
"You are Passover! I will definitely punish you with the most severe law!"
Butler Hall didn't know that being so angry was tantamount to leaving Sally aside who was supposed to speak. It's just that when he yelled at Rody fiercely, he never thought...Rody's gaze was never directed at him from the beginning to the end, but stared straight at the duke's daughter who had just dismounted.
This was the first time that Luo Di saw the daughter of the old Duke who had died in history. In his imagination, this girl should look innocent, maybe a little naughty, or calm and quiet. Looking at it now, the other party's face in the firelight was indeed beautiful, and his figure was slender, but the inexplicable "winning" aura made him slightly frown.
It seems... there is a premonition that something is not right.
"Butler Hall, I think I still have the right to decide whether I should listen to the scout's report, right?"
Sally noticed Rody's gaze, and she didn't seem to think that the scout was being rude, but simply interrupted Butler Hall's chattering words.
This time, Hall was like a duck that had been hit hard with a stick, his mouth was slightly open, and he froze in place with a surprised expression.
The young duke's daughter is well-known for her politeness and gentle personality, but at this moment, the butler never thought that there was a trace of coldness in the words that sounded in his ears that made him shudder.
Sally, whose face was cold for a moment, ignored Hall and turned her gaze to Roddy—the slightly raised corners of her mouth disappeared, leaving only seriousness.
"So...Captain Roddy, do you have any news to report?"
