The man wearing a black knight's training uniform looked at the bonfires dotted in the dark forest under the rolling mountains from a distance. The Gray Wolf Mercenary Group seemed to be sleeping in a large cradle. There was silence from the direction of the camp, except for those coming from
The wind from the western sea sneaks into the night, causing the forest to respond to the rustling sound.
It looks like a sea wave.
It's like some monster is screaming far away in the forest, and the sound can be heard far away.
The tall monster used its huge bone claws to drag the bloody corpse of a female sentry out of the woods. If Brando could recognize it here, he would have seen this female hunter from the mountain people in the afternoon.
.But at this moment, it has turned into a lifeless corpse. The monster's empty chest made a clicking sound, and the orange flames in its eyes flashed. It was somewhat dissatisfied with the understatement of the knight in black. "
It’s not your turn to teach me a lesson, little one.”
The monster's voice was so dry and squeaky that it reminded people of clockwork that had been in disrepair for many years.
It straightened up and threw the body down casually. The dead mercenary fell into a bush like a rag doll, and the crackling sound of the branches breaking extended for thirty-four feet. However, it was far away from the gray wolf mercenary.
The regiment's camp is too far away, and it is difficult for this sound to reach such a long distance - especially on a windy night.
The knight in black still frowned and glanced at his companion——
He saw a group of ghostly blue, glowing translucent spiders screaming and swooping down from the tree crown...
…
There was a soft sound of "Paota".
Brando was startled for a moment, looking at the card that fell out of his pocket and lay flat on the ground under the lamp. The card had turned gray - it was the Sylph Spider, which had already entered the cemetery. But he immediately
It wasn't that I felt heartache, but I picked up the card, was stunned, and immediately raised my head and extinguished the oil lamp. The surroundings became pitch black, and the farthest light outside the tent was a hundred feet away.
So fast.
He felt a little off guard.
In the evening, the Gray Wolf Mercenary Group selected this camp in a mountain col that was sheltered from the wind. Brando suggested to 'Maned Wolf Macaro' that it is best for the two parties to be slightly further apart to avoid mutual interference.
Suspicion, although Macaro and Buga were slightly surprised, they readily agreed. Brando did not trust them, so they could not trust the young man's subordinates, so the two sides with their own agendas reached a consensus.
However, Macaro would never have expected that Brando would use this excuse to escape in the middle of the night.
The young man got out of the tent and shrank slightly as his skin came into contact with the cold air. Although the mountains of Chablis were immersed in scorching heat throughout the long day, the temperature dropped sharply in the canyon at night. Travelers were not prepared
If you use a tent or a sleeping bag, you will still catch the cold. Then he glanced left and right, and there were several shadowy figures in the distance that could not escape his perception - although Brando had not received professional training, he had an energy level of 3.7
For ordinary people, perception is equivalent to those who are gifted and can hear the sound of a needle hitting the ground a hundred meters away in a silent night.
He thought to himself that it seemed that Macaro was just suspicious of them and had no ill intentions towards their group.
After confirming that there was no one else nearby, he cautiously got out. The young man was now fully armed, wearing nail armor, carrying all necessary weapons and tools, and dragging a backpack with one hand, which contained the necessary water.
and food. Then he approached a tent not far away and patted the cloth. After about a few seconds, a curious voice came from inside:
"Brando?"
"Roman, why are you here!" Brando said with a black line on his face. He confirmed again and again that this was indeed Antitina's tent.
"What a surprise!" The businesswoman laughed softly in the tent, feeling a little proud.
"Surprise your size."
Brando turned back angrily and saw Antitina getting out of Roman's tent while pulling up her hair. She looked a little apologetic, but Brando knew that Roman would not care if he had any weird ideas.
What other people thought. He sighed and apologized to the noble lady: "Sorry to trouble you..."
Antitina was stunned.
A slight smile immediately appeared on the face of the noble daughter. She glanced at the tent behind Brando and said, "I can tell, Lord, you really like Miss Roman." She mouthed.
.
Brando nodded.
He followed the businessman's temperament not only because he felt kind to such a girl with an unrestrained temperament, but this kind of kindness may come from Brando's soul. On the other hand, Miss Roman was the first person he came to this world.
A close acquaintance, he has a special feeling for her.
What's more, this business lady is smart and free-spirited, so few people would dislike her.
Although Brando is only nineteen years old in this life, the two souls in his body determine that he is no longer the shy young man. He understands what he should pursue and what responsibilities he should bear. He opened the door
At the corner of the tent door, he saw the business lady looking at him with a charming smile.
"Ready?" he asked.
Roman and Antitina both nodded.
Brando raised his head, as if following his movements, more than a dozen figures emerged from the more than a dozen tents around him. They began to pack up their tents quietly without talking to each other,
Although these mercenaries were fully armed and their belts were hung with all kinds of metal weapons, they made no sound at all when they moved.
It was the first time for Antitina to see Brando's men 'summoned from cards', but a hint of wonder soon flashed through her bright eyes: What a group of well-trained mercenaries, he is
Where did you find these people?
The mercenaries of Lubis were able to leave a great reputation in the long river of history. Naturally, their fame is not in vain. The type of creatures summoned by the destiny card symbolizes a collection of concepts, that is to say, these twelve mercenaries
Soldiers are a group of 'heroic spirits' that best reflect the advantages of Lubis mercenaries. They are loyal, honorable, high morale, and disciplined. They are not afraid of death and pain like real creatures. They are probably the best that have ever appeared in this world.
Soldier.
Unfortunately, Brando thinks the number is still too small.
But even so, it was enough to make Antitina speechless. She quickly couldn't help but touch her cheek, and then looked at Brando, as if she was dreaming.
——It’s not like this noble daughter has never come into contact with mercenaries. Nobles will deal with these guys more or less because of their own industries. Of course, except for those ruffians and scum, most mercenaries have more or less some relationship with soldiers.
connect.
But that's all.
The best mercenary Antitina has ever seen is the Gray Wolf mercenary group that she has been getting along with these days. The team led by 'Maned Wolf' Macaro will naturally not be ordinary people, and can be compared with Bran
Comparing these twelve people in Duoshou, there is simply a huge difference. The inherent laxity of mercenaries cannot be seen in these people. They seem to have something that is difficult to see in mercenaries——
The girl frowned, she couldn't confirm what it was for a moment.
But then a flash of inspiration struck her, and she remembered the difference - pride and honor. She took a breath, few mercenaries who relied on fighting to make a living would always maintain a sacred honor for their profession.
The sense of honor was more akin to that of a knight. She couldn't help but glance at Brando again, and decided in her heart that these people were not mercenaries at all, but retainers brought by this young man from his family.
The more she thought about it, the more certain she became.
A young nobleman leaving his family to create his own world was like a plot described in a legendary story. So when she first heard Brando say this, she still had a little yearning.
——After all, everyone has a yearning for romance and adventure in their hearts. Even Antitina, who received the most orthodox education since she was a child, is no exception.
The story of assisting a young knight who started from scratch and eventually conquered a kingdom was an irresistible temptation for a girl of her age who had received such a level of education.
But now it seems that this lord is not completely starting from scratch——
She felt a little surprised as if she had discovered a little secret, but of course she was not frustrated by it. On the contrary, the noble daughter was relieved - she convinced herself that this at least meant that Brando was prepared and not that kind of person.
Acting blindly, only wanting to imitate the ancients, the stupid green knight is full of passion.
But Brando obviously didn't expect that his subordinates would have so many associations just by seeing a group of 'card soldiers' under him. Of course, if he knew what Antitina was thinking at the moment, he would definitely find a way to do it again.
Come a few more times, and you might be able to recruit a lot of extremely loyal retainers without any effort.
But he didn't have the heart to care about that at the moment.
He soon discovered that he had encountered a little trouble. Twelve Lubis mercenaries quickly packed up the camp here, but when they gathered together and were about to wait for the next order, Brando suddenly
He noticed two figures coming from a distance from the direction of the Gray Wolf Mercenary Group's camp. He immediately frowned and saw one of the two approaching figures clearly——
It was Reddy, a young man with white hair.
Brando immediately wondered if the other party had noticed the movement here, but he immediately suppressed this suspicion because the two people were obviously not walking towards them. He calculated the other party's route, and it should be
Passing between their camp and the Gray Wolf Mercenary Group's camp, he was slightly startled - these two guys want to go outside the camp?
