Entering the station of the Iron Cross Mercenary Group, Captain Andrea, who had already received the news and was waiting there, quickly came forward to greet him.
"Captain Ask, we meet again!" He laughed hahaha, and pulled Alfred out from behind everyone, "Alfred! Didn't you mean to join the Cang Qing Sword Mercenary Group?
Have we known each other for a long time? Why do you keep shrinking back and saying nothing?"
Alfred:???
In fact, not long after he first joined the Iron Cross Mercenary Group, he heard some members discussing the name Blue Sword, so he naturally went over and complained about those people.
As a result, rumors spread through the team at the speed of light, so much so that when Alfred later learned about Iron Cross's attitude towards the Cyan Sword, he felt so regretful that he almost wanted to chew his tongue out.
"Yeah, ah, haha." At this time, Andrea brought it up alone. Alfred still didn't understand. The leader wanted to help him make peace with the Cangqing Sword people and eliminate the old personal grudges.
blame.
However, he didn't want to get involved with people like Cang Qingjian again, so he could only pretend to be at a loss and hesitate.
"Yes, we have fought side by side with His Excellency Alfred in Innsbruck before." Aske replied.
"That's great, it turns out that we are all old friends!" Andrea laughed and invited everyone into the command room.
"Currently, the main problem we face in the southwest is: how to capture the Egnatia Fortress." After entering the command room, Andrea stopped being endlessly polite and looked directly at the tactical map.
Said, "This fortress was built inside a mountainous area. The enemy blew up the original highway bridge and then deployed a defense line along the mountain pass. If they try to attack it by force, they will suffer a lot of damage."
"Then send the sharp knife team." Ask said casually.
"We are still preparing for the Sharp Knife Team." Andrea smiled bitterly, "The problem is that according to the existing intelligence, there should be a demigod from the Seljuk Empire stationed opposite."
"It doesn't matter, we also have demigods." Asik waved his hand.
"Oh!" Andrea and Herman's eyes lit up.
In fact, this is what they are thinking about at this time. Although there are not few human demigods in this world, they are actually not too many. Basically, they are gathered in the major noble lord families and extraordinary sects.
The Iron Cross Mercenary Group does have a demigod, but he is stationed at the headquarters almost all year round. It is impossible to fight with other demigods for this kind of thing. If he accidentally falls, the Iron Cross Mercenary Group will not have a demigod.
Oh my god, both industry reputation and political leverage will quickly weaken in the future, and there is a risk of becoming a second-rate mercenary group.
However, if there are no demigods, no matter how many and powerful the remaining extraordinary beings are, the siege will be nothing more than competing with the demigods for spiritual consumption.
Now is the era of level caps. It is almost impossible to consume a demigod to death... Even if you have an infinite population to besiege him, there is a high probability that he will activate the conceptualization of his body when his spiritual energy is almost exhausted.
He ran away with the damage, and then came back to grind you to death when your spiritual energy has recovered enough.
Therefore, after confirming the news, almost all the large mercenary groups chose to stand still and went back to report to Olympia City to also send demigod-level combat forces.
In the past, due to the restrictions on the magic tide, the only demigod in Olympia City was the city lord Appirios. Now that the magic tide has been capped, even if Olympia has not had time to cultivate new demigods, at least the city lord himself should be invited to come over.
Keep it in check?
Otherwise, if everyone goes to attack a fortress where demigods are stationed, they will die!
Of course, the large mercenary group had concerns about this, and Appilios also had his own considerations. The two sides had never been able to reach an agreement before.
Now that the Cang Qing Sword mercenary group has finally arrived, it's time to ask a few rich or noble ladies in the team to call home and ask someone to come over and solve the problem.
For example, Princess, if you only need to call back, Emperor Otto will definitely pack up all the demigods from the Dragon Family and send them over!
Almost half a year has passed since the last demonic wave, and basic technological products have begun to circulate again. Andrea spent a lot of effort and got a simple satellite phone from a certain contact channel. It was the branch of the Templars.
They are used to communicate with each other.
Now as long as Eleanor calls back to call for help, the problem of how to capture the fortress guarded by demigods ahead can be easily solved.
"Need demigod support?" Eleanor took the satellite phone handed over by Andrea and said in surprise, "This kind of thing... don't bother the elders in my family."
"Your Highness." Andrea said fawningly, and Herman next to him also showed a serious look of sincerity, "It is well known that only demigods can fight against demigods. Since the city of Olympia is unwilling to send out the city lord, then naturally we can only recruit from other sources.
Channels to ask for help..."
The two men tried to persuade Eleanor with emotion and reason, and used long and endless arguments.
Eleanor tried to interrupt them many times but failed. In the end, she could not bear it and slammed her hand on the table, which frightened Andrea into silence immediately.
If she doesn't shut up, if the satellite phone in her hand is smashed, then Iron Cross will be really stupid.
"I mean." Eleanor finally got the chance to interrupt and sighed, "You don't need to find other seniors, I am a demigod."
Andrea:???
Herman:???
ha?
However, immediately after, Eleanor unfolded her own domain, and the domain filled with flames and warmth quickly expanded, dyeing the entire command room with golden and red colors.
Andrea:!!!
The two group leaders were first shocked, then in disbelief, then overjoyed, and finally "shocked my mother for a whole year."
I was shocked because I was frightened by the realm. I couldn't believe it because when we met last time, His Highness's bloodline was not yet mature, but this time he was already a demigod.
I was overjoyed that now I could attack the fortress in front of me. As for the shock... of course it was also because Her Royal Highness became a demigod.
Although it has not been stated explicitly to the outside world, almost all Frankish leaders already know that Emperor Otto will not be able to stay on the Iron Throne for long. The failure of the southern expedition to the Holy See has caused great damage to the emperor's prestige.
If this continues, it will only damage the political reputation of the Dragon family.
However, it is difficult to say who will inherit the Iron Throne (the Franks do not like female heirs very much), but it is absolutely certain that the princess who has mastered the Unyielding Holy Sword will inherit the Dragon family in the future. Even her younger brother Otto Jr.
After becoming the Emperor of the Holy Solomon Empire, he must only obey the orders of His Royal Highness, the eldest princess's biological sister.
If you think about the age of little Otto and the significance of Charlemagne's Holy Sword to the Franks, you can completely guess the next steps of the Otto family. The opportunity we are still waiting for now is nothing more than to see when His Highness will be promoted to
.
After crossing the threshold of demigods and acquiring the almost unsolvable life-saving skill of body conceptualization, the Unyielding Holy Sword can be activated as desired. Anyway, when the time comes, turn the body into concepts and immediately shield yourself from the pain caused by overdraft of will.
You no longer have to worry about entering a period of weakness after the Holy Sword ends.
Not to mention, there are probably no enemies in this world who dare to challenge the Frank demigod who wields the holy sword.
Therefore, the news that Eleanor has become a demigod is definitely not as simple as "the fortress in front can be beaten" for the Iron Cross Mercenary Group.
It is more likely that there will be drastic changes in the high-level political situation of the Holy Solomon Empire.
"Well, Your Highness Sophie." Andrea finally calmed down and asked cautiously, "Have you told your family members that you have been promoted to demigod?"
