391. Half-sisters

A team of about 30 people cautiously roamed the edge of the northwest theater of operations between Dabion and Lane.

At this time, not far in front of this team, there was a light.

It was a small town.

Although Dabion and the Duchy of Lane are now at war, the towns that are affected and affected are generally towns that are closer to the main battlefield. Of course, important cities and towns that can play a role in supply and monitoring have all been transferred to the military management system, and a large amount of military investment and near-all-weather patrol and surveillance have also fully demonstrated the importance of these urban areas.

But like the town in front of you, it's obviously not that important.

From the direction of the town, someone quickly approached the team of thirty or so people.

The one who came was two horsemen.

One of them was a rupee, while the other was extremely burly, and the aura emanating from his body was very strong, obviously with the strength of a high-ranking silver.

This person is the deputy head of the Scarlet Knights, Thor.

The thirty or so people who came with him were all knights of the Scarlet Knights, and they were all carefully selected talents, and the strength of each one of them must be the top silver. Although none of them have a strong rank like Rena and Sean, they have also fought bloodily in countless battlefields, so even if their individual strength is slightly inferior to the adventurer's top-rank silver, if they join forces with a military formation, they can also deal with a low-level golden powerhouse.

However, if you really encounter a strong person, they will not be the first to make a move.

As the two approached, the group of thirty or so Scarlet Knights quickly stopped, and spread out in a circular formation, protecting the man in the center and the two riders who followed him in the middle. To be able to receive such focused care, their identity is naturally very important. And now there are only three people who can enjoy such treatment under Sean, and when Ruby appears here at this time, it is not difficult to guess the identity of this person.

Hela. Garcia.

Now one of the Big Three under Sean.

As for the two people around her, they were two strong men that Sean borrowed from Florence.

Nana. Rosie and Pepe. Rosie.

These two sisters are now the strength of the upper golden powerhouse, although they have not yet reached the peak, but with their twins' unique heart and tacit understanding, the strength they have exerted is not equal to one plus one is not simple. The combination of the two can at least contend head-on with three powerhouses who are also high-ranking gold, or a powerhouse at the pinnacle of high-ranking gold, even if it is a quasi-sanctuary powerhouse like the one he encountered in Nugus Manor before. The sisters had no problem trying to protect Hela from escaping.

"How?" When she saw Ruby coming, Hela asked.

"There's really no warning in the vicinity." Ruby said, "As the intel says, this is a town that is not taken seriously, and we can rest here." And according to intelligence. This time we had a secret meeting in the woods not far from the town. ”

Hela nodded.

The purpose of her trip is very simple, it is to prevent those vampires in the Principality of Lane from doing some crazy things because of Sean's jealousy. And in order to achieve this goal. She doesn't mind teaming up with certain people. Even betrayed some information to the other party, after all, now she has completely abandoned the surname of Nugus and restored the surname of Garcia, and if she wants the Garcia family to grow again, then she has to rely on Sean now.

Because Sean is the only one who trusts her.

So, in order to make the purpose of the trip smooth. Naturally, Hela didn't come unprepared, she had already made contact with her target, her sister, Angel. And the information she has at hand at hand is provided to her by Angel.

For their own sister. Although Hela doesn't know very well, but she won't be a stranger, after all, she has been fighting with her sister for a long time, and the so-called person who knows you best must be your enemy, so Hela is very clear about Anqi's temperament and many other details. In this way, when she saw the information sent by Angel, Hela knew that her sister was not hostile to her—at least not yet.

However, even so, Hela did not give up her cautious vigilance.

She looked at Rupee, then asked, "So Rupee, do you think it wouldn't be safe for us to stay in the town?" ”

Hela didn't know about Ruby at first, and it wasn't until Sean transferred him to his side to take charge of some intelligence work during this operation that Hela realized Ruby's special talent: if you talk about intelligence collection and analysis alone, no matter how high her approval of Sigley, she has to admit that Ruby is much more talented than Sigley, and many seemingly complex problems can always go straight to the core when it comes to his hands.

And the rupee's talent is much more than that.

He has a huge advantage in scouting, exploring, listening, and memory, and it can be said that Ruby has almost no obvious shortcomings except for his personal strength, which makes people feel that they can't look directly. Under any other circumstances, it would be impossible for a person like Ruby to be the commander of an intelligence department, but on Sean's side, he managed it smoothly, and managed the entire Void Realm in an orderly manner, and even according to Hela's own observations, I am afraid that no one in the entire Void Realm knows that Ruby is the weakest among them.

After these days of observation and contact, Hela has also reached a level of trust in the rupee's judgment.

At this time, Ruby didn't seem panicked at all when Hela asked this, he pondered for a moment, as if organizing the language in his head, before he spoke: "If a team of our size camps out in the wild, it is easy to attract the attention of the passing crowd, and it may even attract the investigation of the Dabion army. And according to my observations, there is no suitable place to sleep in the vicinity of this town, and if we insist on sleeping in the wilderness, we need to get more people to guard it, which is not good for our next operation. …… Therefore, I think it would be better for us to stay in the town. ”

Hear the words. Hela nodded slightly, but instead of speaking immediately, she turned her head to look at the burly man who was following Ruby.

Just as Sean borrowed twin sisters Nana and Pepe from Florence to protect Hela, Sean naturally let Thor, the deputy head of the Scarlet Knights, be responsible for protecting Rupee, which is also one of the most valuable assets.

Seeing Hela looking at him, the deputy head of the Scarlet Knights was also very honorable, and said directly: "Lord Hela, you don't have to look at me, I don't know anything about these things, I only know how to go into battle to kill the enemy." ”

In the face of such honest people. Hela really couldn't say anything, so she turned her head and consulted the two strong men, Nana and Pepe, for their opinions.

Although Hela has officially joined Sean's command, she still has a subconscious instinct for her respect for the strong, just like she did when she was in the Nugus family. But her approach is not annoying. So Nana and Pepe both responded very politely: they were the ones responsible for protecting Hela, and they would not interfere with any decisions Hela made.

So after a little muttering. Hela agrees to stay in the town.

The group did not make any more stops. Hurried towards the town.

The rest of the matter was naturally taken care of by Rupee.

As a thief guild on the Miracle Continent, Ruby is naturally no stranger to accommodation registration and other issues, and his methods are very sophisticated to deal with all the things, which makes Hela and the others really look like a mercenary group that often goes out.

Of course, it is not without trouble, that is, this town is a marginal town, and there are naturally not many residents here. The hotel is only a very small hotel, usually it is not a problem to cope with a dozen or so people, but at the moment more than 30 people are required to stay in the hotel, which makes it difficult for the owner of the hotel to arrive. Fortunately, the shrewd rupee didn't bother the boss in this regard. With a little money, he rented out the tenants to the left and opposite sides of the inn for a while, and then simply let Thor set it up.

In this way, a temporary defensive base was erected.

However, tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

When midnight came, Hela, Nana, Pepe, and Ruby secretly left the town - although the town was curfew, and the town's gates would be closed at midnight, but for Nana and Pepe, the two golden powerhouses, the town's walls could not stop them from entering and exiting. As for the only master in the town, a low-ranking silver master, he had already wisely chosen to go home and sleep after seeing the momentum exuded by this group of members of the Scarlet Knights.

With the strength of these people, if they really clashed with them, they were fully capable of slaughtering the entire town.

This is the sorrow of the weak.

The meeting place between Hella and Angel was in the woods about two or three hundred meters away from the town.

It's only a matter of minutes for Nana and Pepe.

But when the four of them arrived in the woods, there were already people waiting.

There weren't many people on the other side, only two, but the more this happened, the harder Hela's heart could be quiet.

Because she knew very well that since Angel dared to bring only one person to the meeting, then this person's strength was definitely not simple.

"Dear sister, I didn't expect that we could meet in this way in this environment." Seeing Hela's appearance, a woman emerges from the shadows of the woods.

Different from Hela's ordinariness, this woman's appearance is not only very gorgeous, but even her figure is shocking enough, even in this dark night environment, when the moonlight falls on her, you can clearly see her fair and smooth skin.

Such a woman is simply a deadly stunner.

Ruby's heart beat faster.

"Ahem."

Hela coughed lightly, and Ruby, who realized her gaffe, immediately took a few steps back and stood behind Nana and Pepe. However, taking advantage of the cover provided by the two of them, Ruby also glanced at his surroundings at this time, and at the same time began to listen carefully to determine whether there was any threat around him. However, the results showed that Angel did only bring one follower and did not bring any followers.

"Sister. Don't be so serious, it's scared of children. Angel let out a chuckle, and the laughter was like a bell.

"I'm not here to discuss this with you." Hela's brows furrowed slightly, she didn't like Angel's appearance now, in her impression that Angel was a very innocent person when she was not forced to become a victim of a political marriage, but since she became a victim, there was an unpleasant evil aura on her body, "The Nugus family has been completely destroyed." ”

"Yes. I know it. Hearing the demise of the Nugus family, Angel restrained her smile a little, and her voice became a little lower, but soon returned to her previous debauchery appearance, "I believe that I will soon be able to see my father's dead head." …… Sister. Would you be interested in enjoying it with me? I've even found an engraver to make a sake cup from my father's head. ”

Listen to Angel's words. Hela didn't say anything.

The Nugus family is indeed one of the largest families in the kingdom of Dabion. However, unlike giving outsiders a sense that everyone in this family is very scheming, the real members of the Nugus family know that there are very few normal people in this family. However, this can't blame the people of the Nugus family for being crazy, because every member of the Nugus family has grown up with countless conspiracies and traps throughout his life since he was sensible, and the slightest carelessness will be a doom. And before the dust settles, no one knows if there will be any variables in the road.

It's strange that people who grew up in such an environment are not crazy.

It's just that Angel has always been sheltered by her twin sister at the beginning. But when her twin sister ran away. Anqi, who was completely plunged into despair and darkness, was like a different person, truly bringing out the madness flowing in the blood of the Nugus family to the fullest.

And in terms of madness, Hela thinks she's no match for Angel.

"I heard that my sister has put a lot of effort into the demise of the Nugus family." Angel glanced at Hela, reached out and tapped her lips, and smiled, "My dear sister, for the sake of your contribution to this matter, tell me why you came to me." ”

"I need you to do me a favor." Hela didn't want to go around in circles with Angel at all, so she said straightforwardly, "I can sell you a piece of information, and if you use it well, then your gains will be very large." ”

"Oh?" Angel raised her eyebrows, "What information?" ”

"Commitment." Hela said in a deep voice.

This time, Angel didn't speak immediately, she just looked straight at Hela, as if to make sure Hela's seriousness. After the two sides looked at each other for a moment, Angel spoke, only this time her voice no longer had any charm, but a very serious tone: "I need to know what reward you want?" ”

"Stop that group of Dabiang mad dogs from the Northwest Theater from moving to the Southern Theater."

"Mad dog?" Angel raised her eyebrows, "I heard you right, my dear sister, you actually call the people of your motherland mad dogs?" Don't forget who you are! ”

"My identity?" Hela sneered, at this time she really showed the strong awe-inspiring momentum she had before, "My grandfather's family was too patriotic, so it was bitten to death by those mad dogs of Dabiang!" Such a country, how do you make me love? …… You like or say you love such a sick country, it has nothing to do with me, I'm Shaun now. Connery's followers, I only need to know that. ”

"Then I don't think we have anything to talk about." Angel sneered disdainfully, turned around and left.

It's just that at this time, Hela suddenly said lightly: "Now that the Nugus family is completely desperate, do you think that if I lend a hand now, can I save our common father?" ”

Angel paused suddenly, and when she turned her head to look at Hela, her face was already hideous.

But soon, her hideous face recovered, and instead showed a chuckle: "Oops, I was almost deceived by you, my sister." You want to express your disgust with the Nugus family and Dabiang's anger just now, and now you are going to save the Nugus family, hehe......"

"I do hate, even hate, the House of Nugus and our father, but so what?" Hela's voice remained as calm as ever, "I have broken away from the Nugus family, and I have broken away from the kingdom of Dabion. My current name is Hela. Garcia, is Lord Panda Lord Sean. Connery's follower, so my starting point for everything must be the lord I serve. …… Unlike you, I will prioritize the big picture without sacrificing or involving the interests of the bottom line principle. ”

Angel's face had become extremely difficult to look at.

"And most importantly, think about how I can leave after being almost under house arrest in Nugus Manor."

Angel's pupils shrank suddenly.

"So now, can we talk about our cooperation?"

"What if I still insist on refusing?"

This time, it was Hela's turn to shrink her pupils.

Because the strong man standing behind An Qi had completely burst out with the awe-inspiring momentum on his body at this time.

This is also a quasi-sanctuary-level powerhouse whose strength is no less than that of Ah Yaer!

……

On May 17, 1784, the Lane vanguard in the Northwest Battlefield suffered a rout that nearly wiped out its entire army.

In this national war between the Kingdom of Dabion and the Duchy of Lane. If the battlefield in the southern theater is the fuse of the whole field, and the southeast theater is the flank battlefield and buffer zone, then the main battlefield that can really determine the victory or defeat of the two countries is none other than the northwest theater.

It is precisely because of the importance of this theater that the two countries have invested almost all their forces here.

So far alone, the total number of troops invested by the two countries in the entire Northwest Theater has exceeded 1 million. Among them, the dominant side is the Kingdom of Dabiang: including the mercenary groups hired by the nobles of the Northwest Theater and the nobles from the royal capital and the rear of the Kingdom of Dabiang, there is a huge military advantage of more than sixty. On the other hand, the Duchy of Lane is only 400,000.

But in fact. In the previous war, it was the Duchy of Lane that had the upper hand.

If it weren't for the fact that the Kingdom of Dabiang had invested two Sacred Domain powerhouses on this battlefield and set up a defensive formation like a turtle shell in the Red Sand Plain, I am afraid that the army of the Principality of Ryan would have already broken through this defense line and directly captured the Garold Fortress. And once the fortress of Garold is captured, then the rear of the kingdom of Dabion will be completely exposed to the threat of the Duchy of Lane. It's like a naked woman who has been torn off the last piece of cloth.

Therefore, in the offensive and defensive battles on the Chisha Plain, the two countries fought extremely fiercely, and in the months since the war began, both sides have dropped more than 50,000 corpses on this battlefield, and as many as 100,000 soldiers have been wounded. Just hold the Chisha Plain. The Dabion Kingdom side has already felt a little struggling, and their only hope is that they hope that their own side in the southeast theater can win, otherwise once the southeast theater is taken by the Duchy of Lane, they will be attacked from the flank when they cut into the battlefield.

But no one thought that in such a desperate time, the Principality of Lane actually made a fatal mistake!

After a brief but fierce encounter, the vanguard they sent tried to lure the defenders of the Red Sands Plain into pursuit by deceit. If it was before, this method would definitely not have succeeded, but it turned out that because the battle situation in the Red Sand Plain was stalemate for too long, Moro VII directly ordered the replacement of the commander, and the new commander was a long-established general in the kingdom, and he was also a radical, so he did not hesitate to order the pursuit, and even mobilized several troops outside the main camp to encircle.

As a result, the vanguard army of the Principality of Lane was severely damaged by this battle, killing tens of thousands of enemies and capturing more than 30,000, which directly led to the rout of the front-line troops of the Principality of Lane, and pursued dozens of miles in one go, forcing the troops of the Principality of Lane in the northwest theater to retreat hundreds of miles.

After this battle, Dabion's army naturally also won a wider strategic depth, and its front line advanced directly one hundred and fifty miles. As a result, the rear of the Southern Theater, which was originally closely connected with the Northwest Theater, was completely exposed to the threat of Dabiang's army because of the rout of the Lane front.

On the strategic map, this rich brushstroke, which has been smeared with red watercolor, is like a stunner that exudes a deadly seductive aura, constantly teasing the Dabians who have been completely awakened by blood and fire and have the blood of war in their bodies. They knew very well that as long as they cut into the southern theater from this direction, they would be able to easily recapture a series of original territories that caused the root cause of this national war, including the Panda Territory, the Yederbi Territory, and the Dayi Territory, and even directly cut off Sean's retreat and fight against Cazes. Prince Hodgdy comes to the rescue.

Meanwhile.

On May 20, 1784, the commander-in-chief of the Southern Theater of Operations, Lord Panda, Sean Brown. Baron Connelly and the Kingdom of Dabion are located in the Southern Theater of Operations. The war between Prince Hodgdi, which really decided the future of the entire Southern Theater, also officially broke out on the White Ice Ridge.

On the flank battlefield that can almost be called the Battle of Dingding, the Crimson Knights led by Thaddeus have also officially entered the battlefield, and then began to charge towards the army under Sean's command on the far right of the battlefield...... (To be continued......)

PS: Yesterday's chapter name was written incorrectly, it was Devin. Söder. Saber, it's not Dane, because it's very troublesome to change the name of the chapter, so I'll just remind you here, everyone understands. …… Also, I saw someone say that I give a lot of pen and ink to the supporting roles? Well, after reading my articles for so long, I thought that everyone should know one of my habits, usually I spend more ink to describe the characters, and they are generally heavier.
