Chapter 39: Intrigue and deception, recruiting troops(1/3)

To put it bluntly, there are two main difficulties facing the coalition forces at the moment.

One, lack of food.

Second, the combat power is insufficient.

However, both problems can be solved at the outpost, at least half of them.

Outside the mountains, there is a walled post built by the Holy Capital. Inside, an Archer who was captured by the Yangtze Knights—Touta Tawara—is imprisoned.

Touta Touta was a military commander in Japan during the Heian period. For some reason, he was accepted as a disciple by Xuanzang Sanzang, a monk from the Tang Dynasty.

He has a special EX-level banquet treasure - "Endless Rice Bag", which can produce a large amount of delicious rice.

Rescue him and half of the food problem will be solved.

Moreover, Tawara Tota himself has good fighting prowess, and is a first-class Archer that is not inferior to Arash and Tristan.

As long as he is rescued, he can also win over Master Tripitaka's servant who has a top spiritual foundation. It can be said that he kills three birds with one stone.

In addition, a beautiful female assassin is also imprisoned there.

Sure enough, when Ren mentioned the outpost occupied by the knights, Hassan the Cursed Wrist said in a somewhat excited tone:

"To be honest, everyone, one of our members, 'Quiet' Hassan, is being held at that outpost and is being tortured.

Due to her special constitution, she cannot commit suicide by taking poison. Although she is unlikely to confess under torture, the enemy also has people who are very good at torture──Iron Age Code!

It is said that he can make hippos beg for mercy under torture.

Once Jing Ming reveals the battle plan and arrangement... the consequences will be disastrous."

For a Servant, biting one's tongue and committing suicide is not an option.

The Assassin Order originally had a special poison designed to be used to commit suicide when captured by itself, but it was useless against Silent Hassan, so Curse Wrist's concerns were justified.

Most of the people resettled in East Village and West Village are non-combatant civilians.

The truly capable troops are hidden in various places in the mountains. Once their positions are exposed, they will be greeted by the Lion King's "Holy Judgment" attack.

The strike range of the Holy Judgment is comparable to that of an intercontinental missile, and its power is almost the same as that of a nuclear warhead. It has a strategic advantage that far exceeds that of ordinary treasures against cities or countries. This is the power of the gods.

Even Ren can't accurately intercept an intercontinental missile launched everywhere. At most, it can block the missiles that hit him.

"Then we must rescue 'Quiet' Hassan, otherwise, the goddess will eliminate them one by one without waiting for the army to gather!"

Da Vinci was still smiling, but his tone was quite serious.

It has the ability to target and blast at fixed points within the entire range of singularities, which is also one of the advantages of the Lion King.

The Pharaoh's great temple spared no effort in consuming magic power to maintain the defense of the external armor. Isn't it just to guard against the Lion King's "Holy Judgment" attack from a distance?

"It's okay to save people, but the enemy may think so too."

Arash suddenly interrupted, with a frown on his face, a look of solemnity and hesitation on his face.

"Everyone, I feel that the outpost is very strange. The future seems to be shrouded in a layer of fog. My clairvoyance has been seriously disturbed. Maybe it is a terrible trap!"

The big hero has A-level clairvoyance, which is the same as the Lion King.

Originally, he even glimpsed his own death, but he accepted it without fear... His perception cannot be ignored.

"Yes, when you mentioned that outpost, I had a frightening feeling, like an abyss swallowing life."

Fujimaru Ritsuka added in a deep voice.

His intuition told him that it was best not to go to that place.

His words caused everyone to fall silent for a moment, and they were all a little undecided.

"Ren, what do you think? It was you who proposed attacking that post. Don't tell me you didn't notice anything."

Da Vinci smiled and looked at Assassin who was as steady as an old dog beside him.

Guda and the school girl also subconsciously cast their sights over. Although they are not sure about the specific abilities, the people in Chaldea know that the soldier master has a very powerful magic eye.

At least it is at the gem level, and even the highest-ranking rainbow-level magic eye in the legend!

"How do I watch it? Of course I stand and watch it."

Ren rolled his eyes, and these teasing words made everyone's faces twitch slightly.

Da Vinci patted him hard on the shoulder: "We are talking about business, don't be careless!"

"Well, your feelings are all right. The Lion King may not engage in so many tricks and intrigues, but Morgan is different..."

Strictly speaking, the "Eye of Deception" is his most powerful and perverted Noble Phantasm. It not only has the function of EX level clairvoyance, but also some of Morgan's little moves cannot be hidden from him.

However, this is considered a conspiracy for him.

Ren drank a glass of white wine and his eyes became sharp:

"Now even if I try to break into the outpost alone, I will be dead end!"

What?!!

Everyone looked shocked.

Everyone knows more or less about Renn's strength.

He has defeated Nitocris and Tristan, can defeat Gawain three times, and even compete with the Lion King... to put it bluntly, if it were a one-on-one fight, he could defeat most of the people present.

However, he now said that if a person goes to the outpost alone, he will never return.

This is not an exaggeration. This is the probability deduced and analyzed by Renn using the "Eye of Breaking Delusion". If he goes to the post alone, there is a 73.61% probability of not coming back.

"Since there is a terrible trap there, of course we can't step on it foolishly, we can only give up silence."

Cursed Wrist Hassan sighed, and after weighing the pros and cons, he planned to reluctantly give up his companions.

There is nothing we can do about it. Even if we go together, if we lose a few servants, the consequences will be more serious than if the soldiers die.

"No, we have to go!"

Ren showed a wry smile and looked at the puzzled crowd and explained.

"If you don't go, Morgan will kill Touta Touta, use illusions or brainwashing and hypnosis magic to extract information from Quiet Hassan, and then the Lion King will use the Holy Inquisition to cleanse the ground...

Don’t be surprised, this is one of the possibilities in the future.”

The future is not static.

For example, his arrival changed the possibility of Arash and the Holy Judgment dying together. The great hero was also aware of this and mentioned it to him while hunting.

[Your arrival makes the future even more confusing...]

To a certain extent, it is very difficult to use conspiracies and tricks to harm Renn, and the probability of being detected is very high.

Of course, even EX clairvoyance has its limits and limitations.

C flash: Hahahaha... I am omniscient and omnipotent.

Ishtar: Woohoo...the Bull of Heaven is lost.

C flash: (●—●)

Ishtar: Woohoo... I am the goddess of waste.

Renn was no exception. He could not clearly observe the goddess in the Holy City, especially when she was using the Holy Spear.

That outpost didn't have as much interference as the Holy City, but Sister Wang was tantamount to "conspiracy" and forced him to choose one of the two.

If you don't save people, the decisive battle will be more difficult, and the probability of losing will increase. If you save people, you will now have to take huge risks.

The game between the two sides has begun!

"Then take action and save people."

Fujimaru Ritsuka said that he was extra calm and decisive at this critical moment.

"No, no, don't go. I'm going to rescue people. You can try to get some food during this time and then assemble the army.

As soon as I rescue people, I will launch a decisive battle!"

But Ren refused to go with the Chaldeans.

It's not that he doesn't want him to go, it's that he can't because Morgan is different from other enemies. She will focus on Guda.

He saw the possibility of many Gudas dying─that is, several Knights of the Round Table and Sister Wang wanted to kill him first at all costs.

Yes, you have to admit that Fujimaru Ritsuka is the biggest breakthrough.

It is obvious that Morgan has not been "intellectualized" and dares to go with her. Her strategy is to kill Gudong, even if it costs the lives of Gawain, Lancelot, and Xiao Mo, she will kill him!!

This witch is so ruthless and cunning that Ren gives her more headaches than the Lion King. At least the goddess is not so careless.

"..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka wanted to say something, but he held back.

Because his intuition told him that it was best not to go there. It seemed to be very unfriendly to him. The right choice was to listen to Assassin.

"But, senior, you are not..."

The school girl blinked her eyes, didn't you say that there is no return for a person?
To be continued...
