399 coming to an end
The nights of the Graystone Village have always been quiet, but tonight was not that quiet. The noble coalition forces held up the torches and screamed, went up the hillside, and then rushed to the city wall. The once calm small mountain village now became flesh and blood. The guards of the Graystone Village in brown leather armor stood on the city wall and repelled waves of enemies. The battle lasted for about four hours, and then the noble coalition forces retreated in the moonlight.
No one could sleep in the entire Graystone Village. Aslan sat in the courtyard of his home, looking at the Milky Way in the night sky, not knowing what he was thinking. About seventy mercenaries stood at his door, waiting for his orders. Should they help the women in Graystone Village, or to sit and watch them encounter misfortune, Aslan was thinking about this issue.
No one came to disturb him because his judgment determined the future of nearly 200 villagers in Graystone Village.
In Pinhuaju, not far from them, the little guy looked at the wounded on the ground, and then listened to their "shenyin" voice, his face was gloomy and gloomy. The aristocrats' offensive was really beyond her expectations. If they had such ability before, why would they be afraid of the small country of Tachibana? As expected, people would not be willing to contribute without sufficient benefits.
As long as you break through the Graystone Village, you can get great benefits, and anyone can understand this. Frances naturally understood that she underestimated the nobles' pursuit of immediate interests, especially the city lord's mansion, and the teacher had a greater cooperation with them. At this critical moment, not only did it not stop the commotion of the nobles, but it also secretly fanned the fire and incited the nobles to attack the Graystone Village. What were they thinking? Do you really think that the teacher was dead?
The little guy didn't believe such rumors, but the situation in front of him was not optimistic. She thought secretly. Should she really use her subordinates of the Hillary clan? After a moment, she immediately gave up this idea. It's not the time. The teacher is a soul-thinking person. Once people know that he has an unclear relationship with the dark believers, it will have a very bad impact on his reputation. The little guy doesn't want to drag down the teacher because of his relationship.
"Miss. This time we died four people, seriously injured thirteen, and slightly injured more than twenty people." Balff wiped away the blood stains on his face, and he said slowly: "There are less than two-thirds of the soldiers we can continue to fight."
The little guy nodded and walked to the backyard. Now the backyard of Pinhuaju is a temporary shelter for the wounded. Then most of the mercenaries also retreated here to rest. She patrolled the backyard and then said to the wounded: "You should recuperate well. As long as you survive, you will have four gold coins. Of course, if you die, your family will get ten gold coins, but I hope you can survive. Although the money is less, as long as you live, you will hope. I think everyone understands this principle."
The mercenaries laughed knowingly, and their morale increased a lot. The little guy was relieved, but he was also a little disappointed. She still remembered that when the teacher used this method to boost morale, the effect was completely different. The fighting spirit of the mercenaries at that time could be described as fanaticism.
As expected, she is not the core figure of the soul of the Graystone Village. Frances sighed quietly in her heart, then walked into the house and went up to the fifth floor... She came to Anne's room, knocked on the door gently, and then walked in, and saw Anne sitting on the head of the bed, her long red hair and burning flames, while the dragon scales on her forehead were like the brightest and quiet green pond water in the forest. Such a contrast made people feel quite puzzled, but it also made people feel unusually harmonious.
"Is there anything wrong, our little lady!" Anne asked with a smile.
Anne is very strange about Frances, and she likes it, is afraid it, and is even more disgusted. The three different emotions are mixed together, which makes Anne very uncomfortable, so she rarely chats with Frances, but her relationship with Alice is quite good.
In fact, Frances's feelings for Anne are also very complicated. Based on the memories in her head, she learned that the so-called dragon clan was actually Hillary's work clan. They were the only pure entity race among Hillary clans. They were usually responsible for the construction, cultivation and transportation of energy crystals. They were the lowest race among Hillary clans.
But after coming to Earth, such a hard-working race actually rebelled. Although there are planet guardians in it, it is an indisputable fact that the workers betrayed it. And the most evil thing is that as creepy cold-blooded creatures, they have been given special abilities by planet guardians. Not only can they greatly increase their strength, but they can also be transformed into humans.
As a ‘human’ Frances is very repulsive of the Hillary tribe, but every night in the spiritual world, the strange energy ball constantly educates and misleads her, which makes her like Hillary tribe a little, so her current state is very strange, half of it is human, and the other half of her cognition is the thoughts and beliefs of the Hillary tribe.
It's like a person, his schizophrenia is divided into two parts. Fortunately, the other spirit grows very slowly. The little guy feels that no matter how strong the spiritual consciousness is, she can suppress it, because whenever she thinks of the teacher, her heart beats faster, and the strange Hillary state will inexplicably weaken for a while.
Most of Frances' consciousness thought Anne was good and a friend to be with, but at night, another consciousness would yell that Anne was a traitor and wanted to execute her and imprison her soul forever, so that her soul would be in pain in the burning of the energy crystal fire.
But now, the little guy thinks Annie is very good, very good: "Dragon Girl, I have something to ask you for my request."
"Is it a fight?" Anne asked.
"Yes!" The little guy walked into the room, walked to the window, pointed to a sea of fire at the foot of the mountain and said: "The enemy's attack was very fierce, beyond my expectations. The casualties of the guards are now greater than I thought. I originally planned to use you as a killer weapon, but now it seems that it will not work! You can go down later and assist the guards in defending the city wall together. Please trouble you."
"No trouble." Annie smiled sweetly and jumped off the building: "I've been a little impatient for a long time. Now it's the best thing to be able to move your body."
"Be careful of everything." The little guy said slowly: "You can't have any trouble. Otherwise, the teacher will blame me."
"Don't worry." Anne turned around and smiled slightly, then jumped out of the window. She didn't like to be with Frances. She always felt that there would be a strange pressure on her.
In the dark night, Balff returned to the city wall with a group of mercenaries. He carefully checked the conditions of each wall and checked whether the sentries in each place were standing guard seriously. He inspected twice, corrected some omissions, and was about to change into armor and prepare for the battle, a mercenary ran down from the direction of Pinhuaju.
The mercenary did not participate in the battle. He and two other mercenaries were responsible for guarding Fina.
"Old Captain Balff!" said the mercenary carefully: "Ms. Fina said that she wanted to see you, and there was something very important to say."
Balff originally wanted to say that he had disappeared, so he held Fina and pleaded with him, but he had no right to let Fina come out. But then he thought about it, Fina was not the kind of person who had no eyes. She must know that she could not do this. But she still came over. Maybe there was something important. After thinking about it for a while, he followed the mercenary to outside the small house where Fina lived.
Through the window, Balff saw Fina looking at her sadly. Fina was already pretty, and with the moonlight, she looked even more beautiful. Of course, she was incomparable to Ms. Bai Min and Ms. Bai Qianxin.
"What did you ask me to do?" asked Balff, "You know I don't have the right to let you out."
"I know! But I want to meet the little lady, and there is something very important to tell her." Fina begged: "It's really important, just tell me if you can tell me."
"You can ask someone to invite the little lady here directly." Balff said strangely.
"I tried it, but she refused to see me. When she heard it was my business, she didn't even want to listen." Fina sighed. After being under house arrest for so many days, she finally figured out that her life in Graystone Village was the happiest period of her life. She didn't have to worry about food and drink dew, she didn't have to worry about being attracted by those lustful people in power, and she didn't have to worry about hidden arrows anytime and anywhere.
What else is she dissatisfied with in this kind of life? It is many times better than in the mercenary union. If the Graystone Village collapsed, such a life would not be available again. She was reluctant to let her return to her original life: "Hisser Balff, I have figured it out now, really figured it out. When I confessed to the little lady a few days ago, I also hid some things... If you hand this over to the little lady, she might come to see me."
Fina handed out a round black lump from the window, and Balff put it in his heart for a few times, feeling a little heavy. He thought for a while and said, "Okay, because we have been together for a while, I will help you this time. Fina, now, it's hard to find a good life, and a good master is even harder to find. Think about it carefully and don't make mistakes."
Fina nodded with tears in her eyes.
Seeing that the other party heard his words in his heart, Balff took the black lump to find his little lady. He didn't think this thing was useful, but he didn't expect that the little guy was shocked when he saw it and asked him where he got the thing. Balff told the story, and the little guy hurried to Fina's room.
"Where did this thing come from? Who gave it to you? And, the person who gave it to you, how do you use it?" the little guy asked coldly with the iron black lumps, holding the iron black lumps.
An invisible murderous aura was released, and Fina unconsciously took two steps back. She felt that the girl in front of her, who was younger than her and less than her height at her chest, was like a powerful ancient giant beast. The momentum like an emperor made her whole body tremble.
A few days ago, the union contact person took it and stuffed it to me secretly. He said that whenever he had the chance, he would pull the iron ring on it and throw it into the castle. This iron lump will produce a coma gas that makes people fall asleep without hurting people's lives. But I thought about it for a long time. What kind of insult will a woman suffer if she loses resistance? I understand that I have seen it. I don't want all wives to suffer such suffering, because I am also a woman, so I thought about it and decided to take out this thing.
After listening to Fina's story, the little guy's face turned green... What kind of coma gas is pure nonsense. She had seen this thing, and the teacher took her to the back mountain to see it. It was extremely powerful, and one piece was enough to burst a deep pit in a place. If they were gathered in the living room for dinner, and throwing such a thing over, how many people could survive!
There are only two places in this thing, one is the back mountain, where the guards are extremely strict, and Anne is in charge of helping to guard it, so it is absolutely impossible to steal. The other place is the City Lord's Mansion... The teacher has been working on this thing for a long time, and most of it has been secretly sent to the City Lord's Mansion.
OK! OK! The little guy was so angry that he trembled all over. Even if there was a huge hatred between the nobles, he could not use assassination methods. This was an unwritten rule. The little guy had a powerful assassination power in his hands, but she deliberately did not use it, but she did not expect that the other party was still so vicious. He even took out this thing!
The little guy returned home angrily and summoned three men in black with his spiritual power. When he was about to order them to assassinate the city lord, he waved his hand dejectedly and asked the three men in black to leave.
Although the origin of this thing now should come from the City Lord's Mansion. This may not necessarily mean that the City Lord's Mansion deliberately lets this thing flow out. Maybe some materials were stolen from their warehouse. The most important thing is that this thing was handed over to Fina by the messenger of the Soul Thinker Association. The little guy doesn't think that the City Lord's Mansion has this ability. It can be said that the Soul Thinker Association does things for him.
There should be something strange about this.
But now there is a serious lack of information, and the little guy can't make an effective judgment. Of course, guessing is inevitable. She sat on the teacher's chair and held her chin to think. Since the teacher left the Graystone Village, this place has become her exclusive place. She missed the teacher very much. Only here can she feel the light of the teacher's breath and make her feel comforted.
She thought for a long time, and even though her mother Catherine came to the door, she could not see it for dozens of minutes.
When it was dawn, he didn't think of a reason. He didn't know how he was sleepy. When he was about to go to bed, he heard the sound of killing at the foot of the mountain shook the sky. It turned out that it was a noble coalition. Before dawn, it was the time when humans were sleeping and launched an attack.
Before the attack, the coalition troops slept beautifully for more than three hours, but the guards were on standby and alert. One side was full of energy, while the other side was groggy. After such a difference of one height and one low, the guards were actually beaten. Some soldiers of the noble coalition troops set up ladders and climbed up the city wall. If Anne hadn't helped and attacked the enemy, this attack might have been really attacked by the other side.
Balf came up to report the situation of the battle again. After hearing this, the little guy frowned and said, "It has been reduced by about one-third of the combat power? Then now, the soldiers we can use to defend should not even be one-third."
Balff nodded.
"The strategy of exhausted soldiers!" The little guy felt a little painful in his head. She didn't think that ordinary people could think of such a strategy. Those nobles had never seen war or participated in it. They could command an army of 100 people well. It would be good if they could not make trouble. With their ability, they would never think of such a strategy.
Then there is only one possibility. In Black Rock City, the family that is best at war is that. It doesn’t have to think about it. It is the city lord’s mansion.
Finally, can't help but take action? The little guy looked into the distance and snorted coldly. If he was an ordinary noble, the city wall built by the Graystone Village could last for a long time. However, if the people from the City Lord's Mansion took action, she really had no good idea. After all, the other party was an expert on the battlefield.
If the teacher is here, there will definitely be a solution, but the little guy knows that he does not have the ability in this regard. The knowledge and energy body in his head is good at dealing with various internal affairs and is also good at things at the political level, but he has never been to war, never once. In the past tens of thousands of years, the memories of hundreds of "predecessors" have never been to the battlefield.
"Continue to defend." The little guy thought for a while and said, "Let one-third of the people retreat behind the city wall for a while, and change a group of people every two hours."
She could only do this, but she also knew that this would not be effective. Now the noble coalition is the attacking party, and they hold the initiative on the battlefield. They rest when they want to rest, and when they want to attack, they have the final say. Passive response is OK once or twice, but if they are too much, they will be exhausted and then drag themselves down.
Sure enough, about three hours later, the coalition launched another attack. Although with the help of Anne, the guards were repelled again, but... the guards reduced several people. The little guy stood on the city wall. Looking at the noble coalition below, there was another army coming from afar, all of which were all miscellaneous, with colorful clothes and everything, but the problem was that there were at least three hundred people in this team.
That doesn't count. At this time, taking advantage of the morning light of the rising sun, the little guy saw a team appearing on the hill on the left. There was a large blue clan in front of him, with a big word "Chen" on it, fluttering in the wind.
Chen Guangde also joined the noble coalition. When the little guy saw this scene, his eyes turned red. Chen Guangde, a damn bastard, usually supplies snow salt in the Graystone Village to make money, and they also participated in the off-season harvesting of vegetables. This did not make them feel that they were a family, whether they were a teacher or his brother-in-law. They actually wanted to join outsiders and attack their own family. What's the use of such a relative?
In the castle, Huilian, who had been standing on the balcony, saw this scene, her whole body trembled. Not long after, she rolled her eyes and fainted. Fortunately, Catherine was also with her side at this time. Seeing this, she hurriedly carried Thirteen back to her room, pinched the Renzhong and massaged her temples. After a while, Huilian fell asleep.
As soon as she slept, she hugged the quilt and shrank into a ball, keeping tears. Catherine knew her mood, and didn't say anything, but just quietly accompanied her. The little guy kept cheering the guards on the city wall at the foot of the mountain, but the effect was minimal. The guards were also humans. They could see clearly that the situation in Graystone Village is now dangerous, and as their comrades decreased one by one, their morale was getting lower and lower.
Looking at the guards whose eyes began to become numb, the little guy knew that as long as the noble coalition attacked again, the wall would not be able to defend. But the more you feared, the more you would be! In less than three hours, the noble coalition launched another attack. This time more people climbed up the city wall, and the guards and Anne were covered in blood, but they gradually began to retreat.
Logically speaking, Anne's power is very strong... But the noble coalition was prepared, or it was the suggestion of a certain force. These nobles all equipped their troops with a certain number of anti-elemental arrows. As soon as Anne came out, she had just killed about six soldiers, and a large wave of anti-elemental arrows came towards her.
Although it is nothing to be shot by the anti-element arrow. After all, the arrow of the anti-element arrow is not sharp, but Annie also lost the elemental ability and special power that she is proud of. Without strength, she can only fight against the enemy with her own brute force.
But on the battlefield, great strength is not very useful. Five soldiers who climbed up the city wall swung their huge sword at Anne, almost sealing her front, back, left and right directions. She had to jump into the air to escape. With this, her role was greatly reduced.
The little guy was behind, watching the number of enemies on the city wall being driven down from above bit by bit, she knew that as long as the city wall was lost, she would have to use the last resort.
In the greystone village, Aslan sat in the yard for a night, and the dew wet his short hair. He listened to the roars outside and screams. I don’t know how long it took, but he finally made a decision. He slapped his thighs and stood up and shouted: “This time, our greystone village and the lord will die together… Let’s bet, we bet the lord will come back. Everyone is ready, we want to help the little lady defend the city wall.”
The little guy bit his pink lips and watched his own people fall down one by one on the city wall. When she was about to send an order to retreat, a sudden burst of rapid and chaotic footsteps came from behind. She looked back and found that the leader was Aslan. He took the lead, subtracted the little guy's side, ran up to the city wall, and cut a noble coalition soldier into two pieces. Then he raised his sword and shouted, and dozens of mercenaries behind him rushed forward and fought the noble coalition on the city wall back again.
"You have a little conscience!" The little guy looked at Aslan on the city wall and smiled slightly. It seemed that the teacher's kindness policy was not completely useless. At least someone would accept the teacher's kindness and die deliberately for him. Although it was a little late, it still came after all, and that's good.
After smiling slightly, the little guy became distressed again. After fighting with the enemy once, the more than 60 mercenaries brought by Aslan also reduced their number of troops. In addition, the number of guards in the Graystone Village is now less than 100 people... But at the foot of the mountain, there are a huge crowd of people.
When can I wait? The little guy licked his lips and didn't sleep all night. He didn't drink water. Now her lips and throat are so thirsty. But at this time, it was not the time to find water to drink. She returned to the city wall, smelled the strong smell of blood, and looked at the broken palms of her feet, and felt extremely uncomfortable.
Fina also rushed over from behind. The little guy asked him to go over and lifted Fina's house arrest. Because it was very simple, now there was insufficient staff, and Balff was also injured. He was attacked by a soldier and was stabbed in the back. Although he was not in danger of life, he also lost his combat ability. The little guy watched Balff being carried away. This competent butler kept shouting on the stretcher: "Let me go, I can still fight, I can still kill people!"
But he was already very troubled to get up, so how could he kill someone?
"Aslan, you will be the temporary battlefield commander now." The little guy handed over the command to Aslan without hesitation. Although he came to the court very late and obviously hesitated, at such a critical moment, when he came, he would not betray him again. People would make a choice. It would always take some time, and the little guy could understand.
On the hill opposite the Graystone Village, Zelonger sat on the stone without moving all night. He watched the noble coalition attack the city wall again and again and again, retreating again and again. Although he seemed to be the coalition forces who were fighting, he knew that every time the coalition forces attacked, their victory would come closer.
And the attack just now was about to attack the city wall of the Graystone Village, but hesitated for a while and then thought about what happened: "Aslan, are you still going to Chen Xiansong after all? I am quite conscientious. I admire you. After the incident, I will only kill you, not your family, and leave it for you."
Zelonger laughed. He accumulated good deeds and became virtues. As long as the noble coalition attacked once, the Graystone Village would probably be defeated. He was very happy and asked his personal guards to go back home to get him a can of fruit wine. About forty minutes later, he drank the fruit wine while looking into the distance. Not long after, Fold appeared in front of him. He shook the can and said, "No, Fold, your tired soldiers are good. You deserve to be a person who has been born and died for more than ten years and has learned some of his father's abilities."
"If Chen Xiansong is here, my plan will not be available." Folde laughed and said, "The person in charge of the command now should be Chen Xiansong's female student, the little girl who looks extremely charming and wants to carry her to the bed at a glance. Although she is very smart and has a correct approach, she is just right, and is not a real soul-thinker of war."
"Oh, how do you say this?" Zelonger asked.
"Her command lacks a kind of spiritual energy. It's too 'right'." Fold said: "The military tactics of the Zhendan Kingdom say that using righteousness and victory with strangeness is only used for 'harmony', and it must be established with equal strength. The strength between us is very different. A tired military strategy can make her fail, but if Chen Xiansong is there, I would not dare to use this strategy."
"Why?" Zelonger asked.
"Chen Xiansong is a genius, a real genius." Fold sighed: "Two years ago, with a Sun God servant, some old, weak, sick and disabled, he repelled the attack of Lihua Tshu, captured a young master, and then smashed the offensive of the Lihua Tshu's Wind Group. It seems that the most powerful one was the Sun God servant, Ms. Bai Min, but I know that even without Ms. Bai Min, Chen Xiansong could repel Lihua Tshu's army, at most, would be more loss."
"In both battles, he defeated the strong with the weak." Fold said in great disappointment: "I dare not use tired soldiers to fight such a war soul thinking person, and I don't even dare to take the initiative to attack. Instead, I have to send countless scouts to find out the surrounding situation clearly, and then the army will station in the city and guard it, and will never leave the city."
"When we meet soul-thinking people, we can only 'not fight' and not give them any chance."
Zelonger sighed: "I didn't expect you to have such a high opinion of him. If only he could use him for me, even if he couldn't use him for me, we can be good friends. Just like you and me, it's just that I'm not a friend who grew up, I dare not trust him at all. Besides, he is still alive and dead."
Folde didn't say anything. After a while, he said: "The coalition forces started attacking again. If nothing unexpected happens, this battle should be able to solve the problem. Zelonger, are you really not going to the scene? If Chen Xiansong's woman is insulted, I think he will go crazy."
"It's okay, we just need to ensure that his female student will not be insulted." Zelonger said: "It's time for you to act. We can keep his female student. Even if he knows that we are secretly adding fuel to the fire, he will definitely blame us afterwards, but he will never break up with us."
"I hope so!" Fold muttered. He was about to go down the mountain to gather his cavalry team, but suddenly he found a white figure appeared behind the coalition forces. This figure reflected the morning sunshine, forming a colorful rainbow line, which was extremely dazzling.
"What is this!" Folde felt bad.
Zelonger also stood up.
Then they saw the white figure turning into a silk thread and rushing into the noble positions behind the coalition forces.
If a little bit of water was dripped into the boiling oil pan... the whole oil pan became boiling. The nobles' positions were in panic, and as well, the vanguard troops in front began to get in chaos.
"She is either Bai Qianxin or Bai Min!" Fold's expression became extremely ugly: "Zelonger, we have taken the wrong bid. Chen Xiansong is not dead, so he must not die. Now you should think about what we should do later."
Zelonger turned around and left. As he walked, he said, "Kill the third and fourth chess piece and kill it immediately. In addition, Fold, you go to the Soul Thinker Association to see if Chen Xiansong has returned to the city. If he returns, come back to me directly. If he doesn't come back, go to the vice president and let him learn to speak."
Chapter completed!
