Chapter 447: Lip Fighting
In this part of the Emerald Mountains, there are no obvious boundary markers like the Sumara River, and the two territories of the viscount and the earldom are intertwined here, with only a few stone stakes nailed, stretching crookedly to the left and right, barely making out the boundary between the two territories. Usually for the hunters living in the nearby forests, the boundaries seem blurred in their minds, and the hunters can freely enter and leave different territories, as long as they don't go too deep.
Today, however, this blurred line has become clearer. Earl Oban's army camp was far from the border, leaving no chance for Daniel to take advantage of the situation. Therefore, the viscount's army also stopped when it was still four or five hundred meters away from the line. Oban looked up and saw that Daniel had not brought all the troops. Behind this powerful viscount were the red and silver knights, all dressed in scarlet cloaks, covered from head to toe in a thick armor. Even the harness of the war horse has an elegant pattern, which looks very gorgeous.
Those knights are Daniel's elite troops, and the Holy Unicorn is known even in Oban's territory. This heavy knight regiment only had fifty men, but their role was not much worse than that of a thousand-man infantry regiment. Daniel armed these knights to the teeth, and even a knight with naked combat strength and an average level of twelve levels, even if Oban had deep pockets, could not muster such warriors.
The sacred unicorns lined up behind Daniel in battle formations, each with a row of ten. There are five rows of men and horses, with bright armor and fluttering cloaks, which naturally give birth to a compelling momentum. Coupled with the two hundred cavalry and hundreds of infantry in the rear, a sophisticated thousand-level force was presented in the eyes of Oban.
There were also only a thousand descendants, but Oban knew that his team was not as good as Daniel's men. Those fifty unicorn knights alone were enough to cut through his defenses. The Earl couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if it wasn't for a talent like Allen this time, how could he force Daniel to move out the unicorn knights, and he couldn't help but feel two points in his heart.
On the other side, Daniel was also dressed in gorgeous and majestic armor. He raised his head and called out across the boundaries of the realm, "Count Oban." β
Daniel's voice was cold and arrogant, and Oban's face changed slightly when he heard it. He snorted lightly before nodding his head, "Viscount Daniel." β
"How did Count Oban come to such a remote place in my Emerald Mountains if he didn't stay in his own ark territory. Others don't know, and they think the Count is going to attack my territory. But I told them that the Count would never do that, did you say? Dear Earl. A contemptuous smile tugged at the corner of Daniel's mouth, and the meaning of his words was nothing more than that Count Oban would not attack the territory, but would not dare.
Oban couldn't hear it, he laughed and said, "Of course not, it's just that I suddenly had the intention of hunting, so I took everyone here to hunt." Viscount Daniel, it seems that I have frightened you a lot by this sudden move, otherwise how would I have had a chance to see your elite unicorn knight? β
The Earl's counterattack left Daniel speechless for a while. After a while, he laughed and said, "It's not autumn yet, and the beasts in the mountains are not fat. The Earl was also very interested, and left it to go elsewhere, but came all the way here, for fear that it would disappoint the Earl. β
"How can it be, hunting is important in the state of mind, and the prey is secondary. This kind of interest, Viscount Daniel probably does not have. β
Daniel's face sank, and Orban's words were an allusion to the fact that he was a villager who only knew how to chase his prey, but did not know how to enjoy the pleasure of hunting. Daniel only came to prominence ten years ago, and neither the individual nor the family has as much history as the Ridley family. Because of this, Daniel is only a powerful viscount until now, and he can't be promoted to earl.
As Orban said this, Daniel said coldly: "I really hope that your army is as good as your mouth, so I will be interested in asking for advice." β
Oban also lowered his face and said, "Viscount Daniel seems to have forgotten about it, not long ago, your talent just attacked my territory. Traditionally, I can take revenge on you legally. If Viscount Daniel is really interested, why don't we have a fight here? β
Immediately, except for the unicorn knight behind Daniel, whose face was as usual, the other soldiers' faces were a little unnatural. Although Orban's army was not as qualitatively as the Unicorn army, it was superior in quantity. Oban's descendants, plus two mercenary groups, now have nearly 3,000 men on the border. There is no danger here, and once a fight really starts, even if the unicorn can win, it will only be a miserable victory.
Even soldiers understand the simple truth, how can Daniel not understand. He gritted his steel teeth, and finally squeezed out a smile and said, "If Count Oban wants to take revenge, it is better to come to my unicorn castle." As for now, I don't think it disturbs the Earl's safari. β
He said to the soldiers behind him: "Since the earl is only here for a safari, and he is still in his own territory, we have no right to disturb others, go back to the fort!" β
Daniel gestured simply. Two points behind him. The viscount turned his horse's head, the unicorn knight followed, and the army was finally gone. Oban looked at Daniel's wolf-like back, somewhat proud, and laughed dryly twice. His staff member, Mr. Long, came to his side and said in a low voice: "This Viscount Daniel can bend and stretch, and he is not provoked by your words, he is really a character. β
"Because he still has room to maneuver, but one day, I'll push him to the point where he has no way out." The Earl's mind flashed with Allen's figure, and the young baron would be the key to this qiΔ.
On the way back, Daniel said to a confidant, "Go, sue SΓΉ Lefus." I ordered him to attack Sunset City, and as for how to fight, it was up to him to decide! β
The henchman immediately went to do it, broke away from the home team, and disappeared into the mountains and forests.
The viscount's order soon reached the ears of Lyforth, and the baron immediately became bitter. His Castle of Dawn was the closest to Sunset City, and it was only natural that Daniel would give him the task of attacking Sunset City. But the problem is that Ryfus's army is nowhere near as good as the unicorns, both in quality and quantity. What's more, he suffered a loss outside Storm City before, losing some men and horses, and now he hasn't replenished it.
At present, the army that Les Fus can mobilize is barely 800 people, not to mention the defeat of Sunset City, but I am afraid that it is too little to stuff the other party's teeth. As soon as Leffs thought about it, he summoned several other knights for help, but except for Olu, the other two knights excused themselves for various reasons, so angry that Leffs wanted to shoot them.
Of course, this could not be done, so after sending the two knights away, Ryfus said angrily: "These two fools, they think they can't threaten them if they are far away from Sunset City." If he can't fight off that Eren now, by the time he gets a foothold in Sunset City, his power will only grow stronger day by day. β
"Not all of us have a vision, but even if it's just the two of us, the combined army has nearly two thousand, which should be enough for a battle." Oulu was full of confidence, and he sneered: "I think this is a good opportunity, so that we can repay the shame of the past with our own hands." I'm out this time, Ryfuss, what do you say? β
Lyfus smiled bitterly: "This is none of your business, you have done your best, how can I have a reason to shrink." Well, I'll immediately mobilize the army and prepare for battle. β
"I'll go back now, and I can learn from you in three days at most."
"Looking forward to your arrival, friend. Let's have a good fight together! β
As the two knights joined forces and prepared to attack Sunset City with all their might, several adventurers entered the Ark Harbor at dusk. They were all covered with hoods, which obscured most of their faces, but the faint aura from their bodies made the officers defending the city reluctant to interrogate more. Especially the one who walked in front, and as he approached, the officer thought he was facing a ferocious beast.
Experience told him that for such a person, since the other party had paid the full tax according to the earl's regulations, there was no need to interrogate too much, and he was directly released.
The men went to a bar in the middle of the city and sat down in a quiet corner. After ordering some food and wine, the adventurers ate in silence. Soon after, the bar became more and more lively, and the more people there were, the more people naturally talked. Gradually, adventurers began to hear that the focus of discussion was the recent glorious deeds of the upstart Sir Richard who had made his way to take Sunset City.
At this moment, a guest passed by the adventurer's table and was suddenly caught. The man was surprisingly strong, and with his hands in his hand, the man collapsed on the chair. He was about to get angry, when suddenly a purse was thrown in front of him, and an adventurer asked in a deep voice, "Tell us about the new knight." β
The man weighed the weight of the money bag, and felt that it was not light. He accepted it quietly, but still asked, "What are you asking about that adult?" β
"We're looking for something to do, just to see which adult is worthy of our service."
When the man heard this, an expression of "I see" appeared on his face, and then he said with great interest: "If a few people want to join that adult, it is just right." He has now conquered Sunset City, and is preparing to make a big difference in the viscounty, and there are many opportunities. β
"What's that adult's name?"
"He's, like Sir Allen, yes, it's him!"
An adventurer jerked off his hat, revealing a hard-lined face, and he grinned, "Go on, I want to know more things." β
Carlo said, and began to wipe out the plate of fried steak in front of her. R1058
