The city of Seville.
The black knight demigod "Sword of Decay" Livagul, who is stationed here, is comparing the intelligence sent back by the undead on the front line with the intelligence sent back by the secret informant.
Since Selivia borders the Badajoz Forest to the west, even though the half-elves have never set foot in the outside world in the past hundred years and have always maintained a neutral attitude towards the war between humans and the undead, Livagur still placed spies in the caravans heading to the dense forest area.
As a result, just recently, the spy finally brought back a confidential message:
Recently in the half-elf tribe, the tribe's distrust of the undead has been growing day by day. There is even a radical force within the tribe that advocates that the half-elves should intervene in the Peninsula War and assist humans in expelling the undead.
This force has already established contact with the Kingdom of Aragon in the east. The Bull Mercenary Group recently sent a mercenary team to the Badajoz forest to negotiate and communicate with the radical forces.
The mercenary team planned to start from Valencia, take the southern route to bypass the La Mancha Plateau, then cross the Andalusia region, and finally enter the Badajoz jungle from the direction of Seville.
The details of this confidential information were so detailed that even the mercenary team's route and departure time were clearly stated. Livagul couldn't help but feel as if the mastermind behind the scenes had deliberately leaked it to him in order to use him to kill this mercenary team.
However, the internal strife in the human world has been going on for a long time. The most famous story in history is the story of Charlemagne and the Paladin Roland:
At that time, the Undead Army was fighting the army of the Frankish Empire on this continent, and then the spies planted on the opposite side obtained the so-called confidential intelligence, saying when and where the Paladin Roland would pass by, how many people he brought with him, etc. The details were incredibly detailed, as if they were leaked by the top leaders of the empire themselves.
The result was just as recorded in history. The army of undead ambushed the paladin Roland according to the intelligence, and eventually besieged and killed him, and then Charlemagne arrived late.
Livagul, who adhered to the chivalrous ideals of his lifetime, disdained this despicable method of killing someone with a borrowed knife, but after all, he was an undead first and a knight second, so he could not just let the mercenary team go.
Anyway, according to the intelligence route, the other party must pass through the Selvia area where he was stationed, so Livagur dispatched a large number of undead troops to conduct large-scale search and patrol in a net-casting posture.
Finally, we caught up with the target mercenary team today.
However, a few minutes later, the news fed back from the front line surprised Livagur.
There were a total of 9 mercenaries on the opposite side, all of whom were transcendents who had reached the law level. The undead army on the front line could not withstand their forced breakthrough at all.
It was no wonder that the humans had deliberately revealed the information to him. If so many high-level extraordinary people were killed inside without any clear reason, it would be difficult for anyone to completely cover it up.
So Livagul went out personally, leading the Black Knight Guard to chase after them.
On the banks of the Guadalquivir River, the Blue Sword killed another wave of undead troops.
The reason for choosing a strong attack instead of continuing to hide is, on the one hand, because there are too many undead troops searching here, and on the other hand, because this place is not far from the Badajoz forest area.
