While Commander Felix was recovering from his injuries, Suldak also began to lead a patrol team to patrol the mountains east of the Blue Bridge plane.
The patrol mission here is much more comfortable than staying in the warehouse of the fortress's logistics department counting boxes. Although there is no scenery in this mountain range, as long as you stand on the top of the mountain, you can look at the rolling mountains in the distance.
, it will make people feel open-minded...
Andrew ran at the front on his horse, and Samira chased behind him.
The two of them often compete in equestrian skills in this mountain.
Surdak has been practicing knight skills at Blue Bridge Fortress recently.
He plans to impress Commander Felix in a month's time.
The seventh area of the battlefield has entered a short truce period. Occasionally, demon scouts will enter the Green Empire defense area for reconnaissance, but they are much less than the previous days.
Next to Surdak's saddle hung two heads of demon warriors.
Samira discovered the hiding place of the two demon warriors between the rocks in a cliff. Then things became simple. There were seven people in the patrol team including Surdak, and they all blocked the rocks in the cliff.
exit, and then threw powerful fire scale bombs into it.
Although the fire scale bomb is not very powerful, the explosion will be very loud in the cracks of the rocks, accompanied by the falling of gravel, and some flames will be ignited.
These demon warriors didn't know the power of fire scale bullets, so they came out in embarrassment amidst the continuous explosions...
Andrew, Gulitem, Deans, and Musta were waiting outside. Demon warriors were wrapped in a light yellow light shield and rushed out from inside. They were intercepted directly. Generally speaking, these demon warriors
He rarely surrendered. After the battle lasted for a while, Andrew managed to kill a demon warrior with only minor injuries.
In addition, the demon warrior was slightly distracted and was blasted with a big hole in his chest by Gary Decker.
Not every patrol team has such good luck when going out. The only one who can have good luck continuously is the Surdak Patrol Team...
These two demon warrior heads are the team's trophies today. Deans and Musta are behind the team, responsible for detecting whether there are any enemies following the team.
The patrol team walked eastward for a while and came to the boundary between Blue Bridge Fortress and Moon Fortress. Andrew made some marks on the boundary monument with his own hands, and then walked back slowly.
Surdak rode a horse and walked in the middle of the team, and Garry Decker, who was wearing heavy magic pattern armor, rode alongside him.
This long-legged beauty wore a black iron mask. In the fierce battle just now, she blasted away the chest of the demon warrior with one shot.
Her double-barreled shotgun is indeed a magical weapon, and the steel pellets fired are extremely powerful.
Surdak saw with his own eyes that at the moment when the shotgun was fired, an orange magic pattern appeared at the firing pin of the shotgun, and then a trace of fire appeared in the magic pattern. All the explosive power was in the barrel of the gun, and the entire gun
The tube also shows orange and magic patterns.
The moment the tongue of fire spurted out from the muzzle of the gun, Gary Decker was so shocked that he fell backwards.
The demon warrior didn't expect that Gary Decker would be so close, so he hit him with a magic shotgun. Immediately, a dark bloody hole appeared in his chest.
The demon warrior knew that he was so seriously injured that it would be difficult for him to leave alive, so he wanted to rush forward and die together with Gary Decker.
The two-headed ogre Gulitem finally hit him on the head with a stick, smashing his skull on the spot so that it was beyond recognition. If the blow had been heavier, it is possible that the high-level sacrifice of Surdak would have been destroyed.
into the hands of Gulitem.
"So, old Heyman is a member of the black market organization on the battlefield of the Green Empire?" Surdak asked in surprise.
Regarding the news given by Gary Decker, Suldak still found it very credible.
Gary Decker flipped up his hair and said:
"Yes, their organization itself controls most of the magic materials on the black market. Many people buy those scarce magic materials from them, but they only sell materials obtained from demons, and there are also some rare ones.
Weird stuff."
"The core of this black market is membership, and it's not easy to get into them."
"Each member is a group of old guys who have lived on the battlefield for a long time. One thing they have in common is that they have served in the logistics department of various fortresses. In addition... they almost never leave the battlefield."
"They created this underground trading market. It is said that they wanted to order the chaotic underground trading here."
Gary Decker paused and asked Suldak:
"What...Captain, do you want to buy something?"
Surdak shook his head and said: "No... I just want to know something. The things I want to buy were already bought last time I went to Chaos Fortress."
Following his habit in the deserted land, Andrew found a few pieces of logs from nowhere, and actually nailed two wooden crosses to the boundary monument, then erected them behind the boundary monument, and removed the remaining useless demon warriors.
The head and body were hung on it.
The arms, torso, and ankles were all tied tightly with hemp rope.
After finishing these things, Andrew jumped on the horse and followed the patrol team back.
Musta followed behind. He had just helped Andrew tie the hemp rope.
At this time, I caught up with Andrew and reminded him: "Andrew, you will cause those demon scouts to hold grudges and take crazy revenge!"
The Nanai indigenous warrior said excitedly: "It's just the right time to come. I'm afraid they won't dare to come... You don't even know how long it's been since I was injured!"
"What you said... it's as if you were hoping to get hurt!" Musta blinked and said.
As a swordsman graduated from the academy, he was hailed as a swordsman genius by his family since childhood.
It has been a smooth journey to become a second-level swordsman, and he can be regarded as the leader of the younger generation in the family. He felt that Andrew was a little too arrogant, so he gave the arrogant Andrew a soft and unyielding sentence.
Unexpectedly, Andrew laughed loudly, not angry at all, and said very directly: "You are right, that's what I think. I think only when you are injured can you understand the battle again."
"..."
Musta was completely speechless now.
On the way back, the sky darkened little by little, and the dark clouds in the sky lingered all day long. On top of the mountains, I felt very close to the clouds, which made people feel extremely depressed.
Suldak asked Gary Decker:
"How much do you know about those intelligence dealers?"
Gary Decker pulled the reins of the war horse. He didn't expect Suldak to ask this, so he just said vaguely:
"The origins of these people are very complicated. These members come from various races, and they form a huge network on the battlefield. Some members not only have a background in the Green Empire, but they are also said to be from elves, dwarves, orcs, and lizards.
Members can also contact the opposing demon clan, so they have first-hand information."
Then she approached Surdak again, put her head to Surdak's ear, and said:
"I heard that they were involved in the battle a few days ago...but these are just rumors, and no one can confirm it."
…
A few days later, Gary Decker quietly reported to Suldak that the Imperial Construct Knights were besieged and killed by the demon army at the border of the defense zone. In the end, the responsibility fell on Commander Felix.
The above accusation was that Commander Felix's poor command led to the ruin of an elite second-level construct knights.
Once such a serious dereliction of duty incident is settled, Commander Felix can almost be sent to an imperial military court.
When Surdak heard the news, he felt inexplicably irritated. He felt that this matter was not as simple as it seemed. Now it seems that those who want Commander Felix to take the blame must think that he is behind the scenes.
This position is a bit of an eyesore.
In addition, as a battlefield commander, Commander Felix also has an unshirkable responsibility for this.
Suldak asked Old Heyman to learn about the situation. After all, Old Heyman's network of connections spanned twenty-seven imperial fortresses, so he should be very well-informed.
The light in the room was soft. Old Heyman was sitting at the counter, drinking black tea from a cup and preparing a plate of nuts for Suldak.
"Nothing will happen to him this time, it's just that someone is giving him some warnings." Old Heyman said to Suldak.
"Felix has been promoted to the third level for fifteen years. There is no doubt about his own ability, but he has as many advantages as disadvantages. He has justice, compassion, and humility, but he has done too much in some aspects. He is selfless and hates evil as much as he hates evil. Like
People like him... once they take something too seriously, they may get in the way of others."
"His ability allowed him to become the deputy leader of the Zakarum Knights, but his character was disliked by many nobles in the empire. The current situation is that more people hate him than love him, so
He will have a very difficult time."
"And... everyone who is willing to get close to him will be implicated."
Old Heyman asked Suldak: "Is this your first time coming to the battlefield?"
"Yeah!" Suldak nodded.
Old Heyman leaned close to Suldak's ear and whispered: "If you survive the past six months, you will have a long vacation. After this period of time, when you come back, if Felix can still continue to sit
You could have been in his position in time, so there is really no need to get too close to him now!"
Surdak said nothing.
Old Heiman sighed softly and took a sip of black tea.
"His remarks will hurt the interests of many people, so this time not only the people who hate him want to sink him, but those who have nothing to do with him are also unwilling to pull him up..." Old Heyman continued.
.
Then he patted Suldak on the shoulder and said: "I am getting older and my energy is not as good as before. I am going to bed... when you leave, lock the door."
