Chapter 427: Sneak Attack from Back

"Mr. James, where are we going?"

Riding on the horse, Nadia carefully looked around, and then couldn't help frowning and asked. She had expected the half-elven ranger to take her to the Reeds, and if they were able to join the fight, they might be able to withstand the attacks of the nobles' privateers. But the other party did not do this, on the contrary, he took Nadia in the direction of the woods in a large circle, although Nadia was not very familiar with Khalkhaland, but also knew that this was definitely not a shortcut to the Reed Fort, and they were even far away from there.

"Why, don't you want to go back? Miss Nadia? ”

Hearing Nadia's inquiry, Jenn turned his head and smiled at her, and Nadia frowned at hearing Jenn's words.

"I'm not going back, Mr. James, and now that I'm here, I've made my choice. If you think I'm a liability, then I can leave. ”

"Of course not, Miss Nadia, excuse me for being rude, I'm just joking."

Hearing this, Jenn hurriedly raised his hands and showed an apologetic smile. Soon, though, his face became much more serious.

"However, I think Miss Nadia must think about getting out of here, after all, what I have to do next is very dangerous."

"Dangerous?"

Nadia's eyes widened in surprise at Jenn's answer, and Jenn nodded.

"That's right, Miss Nadia, now the noble privates of Dogante have launched an attack on Reedsburg, frankly. It's just the two of us, and even if we rush back, we don't have much chance of winning. Fort Reed was indeed able to withstand the attack of some of its soldiers. But it also limits what others can play. And to be honest, I don't think that under the attack of those noble private soldiers. Oldman: They were able to hold out for too long. After all, most of the people who fought with us were blacksmiths and peasants, and although they had been through a lot of battles before, siege warfare and defense warfare were completely different things. ”

Hearing this, Nadia nodded thoughtfully, she did know that there were few professional soldiers in the "Free Salvation Army", and the reason why most of them mocked them as mobs when they mentioned them was because of this, because almost all of the people who formed this army were civilians, and they didn't see a few soldiers at all. Otherwise, they wouldn't have called these people "mobs" but "rebels."

But............

"Sounds like Mr. James is familiar with these?"

"I once joined a mercenary in the Frozen Lands. I've experienced a lot of battles, and I still know a lot about these self-confessions. ”

As an actor, the most basic quality is the setting that should never be forgotten, and Jenn's acting skills that are enough to laugh at the Oscar are naturally perfect, and it is impossible for Nadia to see any flaws. In fact, Nadia didn't see any flaws, and so far, Nadia hadn't made any connections between the half-elf ranger in front of her and Jenn - maybe she couldn't have thought of it at all.

"But ......... in that case"

Nadia naturally didn't have much doubt about Jenn's words. She also knew that what the other party said made sense. But in that case, shouldn't they rush back to help? If those civilians can't support it, then it's only a matter of time before Fort Reed is breached, and then it's all over, isn't it? Could it be that this half-elf ranger saw through this? So planning to abandon his companions and run away? But if that's the case, he doesn't need to bring himself with him at all, does he?

"There were only two of us. Miss Nadia. ”

For this Miss Paladin, Jenn naturally had already figured out her temper. Just by seeing her face move, you could know what this rigid paladin was thinking.

"Even if we rush back. It won't help them much, and if the Reed Fort is surrounded, then it will be even more unlikely that we will break through the siege and enter the castle. Things will get worse by then........." Jenn spread his hands and made a helpless gesture. β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦ Of course, if we have the power to directly wipe out an army, then naturally there is no need to worry about this problem. ”

"Ah.........h

Hearing this, Nadia couldn't help but bow her head with a slight blush, and then she remembered that she was no longer the paladin favored by the gods. And after losing her divine favor, her strength is naturally not as strong as before. In fact, she was already a little powerless to deal with such a group of soldiers and mercenaries before, if she had changed before, she would not have to worry about anything at all, as long as she swung her long sword, she could completely destroy those evils. But now............... It's like a level 60 character has been cut off by half of the level, and when he goes down to the intermediate dungeon, he naturally can't crush all the way forward.

"But luckily, there are fewer people and there are fewer people, we have scouted before, and if it is correct, the base camp of those private soldiers is not far from here in the woods. If we're lucky, we'll be able to dodge each other's searches, and then we'll be behind them to give those nobles a big surprise. ”

As he spoke, Jenn smiled and gestured to Nadia. And until this time, Nadia seemed to understand what Jenn wanted to do, and she couldn't help but light up. I have to admit that this is indeed a good way, if those nobles find that their camp is wrong, then they are likely to retreat, after all, it is a cold winter, if they can burn the other party's food supplies, then they will definitely not be able to hold out for long. At that time, Fort Reed's predicament would naturally be lifted.

Of course, Nadia didn't know the story of Wei Wei saving Zhao, but she could figure out the truth as soon as she thought about it, and she couldn't help but have a little more trust when she looked at Jenn's gaze. I have to admit that if he really succeeds, this is really a pretty good choice.

"So, I'm ........."

"I'm still a little worried on my own, but with Miss Nadia by my side, I'm more sure. I think Miss Nadia can also see that I'm a ranger, and if it's okay for melee combat, I'm still insensitive to it, and if I'm surrounded by people, then I hope Miss Nadia can help me, I wonder if Miss Nadia is willing? ”

"Of course, there is no problem."

After hearing Jenn's words, Nadia also nodded immediately. She didn't know what she was supposed to do before, but now that she heard Jenn, she immediately understood why the other party would let her join in. Obviously, his mission is to protect this ranger so that he can sneak up on the opponent's camp more smoothly. After understanding this, Nadia immediately nodded in agreement. Nadia is no stranger to this kind of thing, as a paladin, she has also participated in the mission to eliminate bandits more than once, and they have done similar things at that time. And now it's the same, thinking of this, Nadia calmed down, she clenched the hilt of the sword at her waist, and nodded.

It didn't take too long to find the camp of those noble private soldiers - in fact, Jenn didn't need to look for it at all, Tilis with the Sky Scepter was almost a humanoid radar, and Jenn could immediately know the location of the other party as long as he communicated with her through psychic contact, but even so, he still pretended to take Nadia around the woods for half a circle, and only then did he "accidentally" find the location of the other party's camp on the edge.

The aristocratic privateers didn't seem to think of it as a war at all, and it stands to reason that the camp of the first army should occupy the upper reaches of the water source, surrounded by layers, and the simplest protective structures need to be built. But there was nothing here, except for those tents, only a few scattered patrolling soldiers. It doesn't look like a barracks at all, but more like a place for the nobles to go out huntingβ€”maybe they see it as a hunt, too.

However, even a hunted beast may bite the other person back.

Jenn lay in the snow, squinting his eyes at the camp in front of him, there were a total of six of the most luxurious tents in it, he had received information before, this time the other party sent five mages, it seems that five of those tents should belong to those mages. I just don't know how many mages are in the camp......... Thinking of this, Jenn closed his eyes and opened them again.

The Evil Eye activates.

In an instant, the world changed, and the flame of the soul immediately appeared in front of Jenn.

There weren't many people left in the camp, and judging by the strength of their souls, it was clear that none of them were Jenn's opponents. Jenn, however, quickly sensed a soul that burned like a flame and a soul that was as wild as a whirlwind. The masters of these two souls should be two mages, so it is already obvious that the previous battle nobles sent three mages to participate in the battle, and in addition to the black-robed mage who died at the hands of Jenn, the remaining two should be involved in the battle against Reed Fort. As for these two people here......... Don't know if it's because it's on the safe side? Or is it something else?

In addition to these two mages, Jenn also saw the members of the Chasseur team, and there were nearly a hundred people in the entire camp, which was not a small number for them.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, since they're here, the fate of this camp is already sealed.

Thinking of this, Jenn withdrew his gaze, and then he turned his head to look at Nadia not far away, and made a gesture.

The time for the offensive has arrived. (To be continued......)
