Chapter 267 Returning
Taking a deep look at the monster, as if wanting to engrave him in his mind, he forced Bran back with a knife, turned over and jumped into the river, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
It's not that Xiao En didn't want to take the opportunity to kill this champion knight who was full of malice towards the leader of Yongye, so as to avoid future troubles.
It's just that the other abilities of the Thundering Golden Eagle are not strong enough to deal with the champion knight. The only super lethal thunderbolt needs a long time to accumulate momentum and fully mobilize the power of magic to display it. Once the opponent is prepared, it is difficult to hurt The other party, after all, is now on the river.
It is difficult to stop the champion knight if he wants to run.
Sean gathered most of the Thunder's power and dispersed it again. He glanced at the Messenger, which was completely out of trouble, and raised his figure again.
Looking down from a high altitude, on the river behind the Messenger, there are dozens of crocodile warships coming in this direction. It is impossible to judge whether they are enemies or friends.
Fortunately, it is not too far from the Donau River here, enough for the Envoy to enter the Donau River before they catch up.
When they got there, there were more merchant ships belonging to the Yong Ye Army Commander.
These days, even merchant ships will be equipped with quite good armed forces, otherwise those good people who deal with them peacefully may turn into thugs.
Go at full speed. Although the captain of the Messenger did not see the ship behind him, it did not prevent him from making the most correct judgment. Before he had time to kill all the soldiers of the drowning crocodile tribe, he sailed at full speed again and escorted Bran intact. Returning to Yongye's army leader is his top priority.
The Champion Knight Assassin had just escaped, and Bran fell down on the deck, his face pale.
The captain of the Messenger, who had just finished his work, walked over quickly, helped him up and said, Master Chief of Staff, are you alright?
It's nothing serious, it's just that the spirit is a bit exhausted, and it will be fine after a night of sleep. Bran explained while taking out a charged gem to absorb the magic power from it. Although there is no way to replenish the spirit, it is still a little Sluggish, but at least he no longer looked like he was about to faint anytime.
The pressure of confronting the champion knight is really too great. I have a lot of charging gems in my pocket, but I have no chance to draw power to replenish.
However, the benefits of struggling in this life-and-death situation are huge. The door to the peak road that has been closed to him has been quietly loosened, revealing a little gap.
No wonder the Yong Ye military leader has been spreading the legend that life and death training is a shortcut to the peak, and it seems that it is not groundless.
It's not that Brann didn't ask the champion knight to help him with his moves before, and even his father, Ben Hebrew, went off in person when he reached the double peak, but the effect was not satisfactory, and he has been puzzled.
Now I have finally found the reason. What is fake is always fake. No matter how real the simulation is, if the nerves are not tensed, there will always be something close to it.
What's more, people don't push themselves into desperation, and they never know how powerful they can unleash.
Looking back on the whole process now, it is almost suspected that he was in a dream. He did not know if he could do it all over again, because at that moment, under the pressure of death, his energy and energy were forced to concentrate, and some operations had already been completed. It exceeded his normal limit, and his body faintly felt like falling apart, but there was also a kind of heartiness that could not be described in words.
It's fine! It's fine! The captain of the Messenger let out a long sigh of relief, feeling his feet were a little weak.
Although he did not participate in the battle from the beginning to the end, it is also a very exhausting thing to control the ship and command the battle, especially the short tens of seconds of driving the ship against the crocodile warship, which is dangerous and highly concentrated His spirit was not much worse than that of Brann facing the injured champion knight alone.
In this encounter that lasted no more than a quarter of an hour, it was not only Brann who gained something. This young captain has unique experience in both personal cultivation and manipulating warships. Maybe there is a chance Take it to the next level.
What are you doing? Bran asked curiously, looking at the young captain who took out a pen and paper and scribbled quickly.
Remember the experience just now. The young captain replied without raising his head.
Bran was taken aback, and couldn't help but raised his thumb and said, It's a good habit.
The young captain quickly finished memorizing, carefully put away the pen and paper, smiled and shook his head and said: This habit is not formed by me, but was forced out by the head of Woody's army. Without saying anything, each captain sent a diary and a pen, asking us to record every day on the warship, including the soldiers' eating, drinking and lazing. After all, we crossed the river by feeling the stones and had no experience. It needs a little bit of accumulation, especially the experience of confronting the enemy head-on, which cannot be missed. Counting it in detail, this is our first battle on the water, and it is precious first-hand information.
It is said that Commander Woody is very good at training. I was skeptical at first, but now I believe it. Bran sighed sincerely.
It is not a fluke to be able to climb up from a hundred guards to become a leader of a newly established army, but to have his own uniqueness.
The young captain hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice and said, Master Chief of Staff, was that just now Lord Lord?
It's better not to make wild guesses about this kind of thing. When we should know, we will know it naturally. We shouldn't know it. If we know too much, it will be taboo. Bran warned, You just need to know, who is the other party? Friends are not enemies, so let’s issue a password.”
Understood. The young captain nodded, Master Chief of Staff, if there is nothing else, I will go to other places.
Go ahead, I'm fine. After watching the other party leave, Bran sat on the ground like this, closed his eyes and rested, recalling what he had just gained while recovering.
The surviving Yongye soldiers on the Messenger were also in shock and whispered to each other.
What just rescued us? I think it looks a bit like the legendary Sanset eagle, but it doesn't look like a physical body.
I've seen similar figures passing by more than once in the territory. I thought it was the giant Sansett eagle, but I didn't expect it to be so simple.
I feel a strong magical power in it, don't you think this kind of fluctuation is very familiar?
Shut up, everyone, what you saw just now, implement the special secrecy regulations, and rot in my stomach. The bosun of the Messenger limped over, and told each other with a solemn expression, No one will be left alive, the corpse Throw them all into the river to feed the fish.
As for the matter of rescuing the wounded and collecting the remains of the companions, there was no need to order them at all. Naturally, the medical soldiers on board took care of them.
Understood. The soldiers of Yongye shuddered in their hearts, glanced at each other, and instantly understood the deeper meaning. This was obviously another secret weapon of the Yongye army leader.
Having said that, the Yong Ye army leader has not stopped investing in the Institute of Biological Anomalies these years, and even those huge beasts have been equipped in many brother departments.
Not to mention enchanted equipment, it is clearly on the list of merits of the Ministry of Military Supplies. As long as you have enough merits and your strength reaches the minimum standard, you can have unique abilities exclusive to warlocks.
The knight who sacrificed himself to cover Brann showed them the power of the enchanted equipment, able to withstand the blow of the champion knight.
With this kind of equipment, on the battlefield, if one more life is waiting, it is very enviable.
Although they have just experienced the pain of losing their comrades in arms, the morale of these Yongye soldiers is even higher. Looking up at the dark cloud hovering above their heads, their hearts are full of fire. With its escort, they have no worries about the rest of the road .
Just a few minutes after the Messenger left, the crocodile warship that Sean saw from the sky arrived.
Standing at the bow of the ship was one of the members of the Council of Great Elders, Weber Sarov.
Seeing the miserable scene after the fierce battle in the river, this elder of the crocodile tribe who doesn't show his emotions easily stomped his feet angrily: After all, it's still a step too late, Klein, an old bastard, actually did it for his own selfishness. , to do such a frenzied thing, he is not saving the crocodile clan, he is driving us to a dead end.
Obviously, they had received the news and came to stop the interception, but they were a bit late in receiving the news and could not catch up in time.
Patriarch, we have searched everything. There is no wreckage of the Messenger, only our Crocodiles' own boats. There are seven ships in total, all of which belong to the Great Elders of Klein. The soldiers of the Crocodiles who went into the water to search came back soon to report .
There is no wreckage from the Messenger? Weber gasped, both pleased and surprised.
The good news is that Klein's interception seems to have been unsuccessful, and the relationship between the Crocodile Clan and the Yongye Army Leader has not been cornered, and there is still room for relaxation.
Surprisingly, one of the seven crocodile warships and a champion knight personally failed to take down one of the opponent's assault warships. How powerful is the opponent's warship? Could it be that there is still a champion knight hidden on the warship?
If this is the case, the strength of the Yong Ye army leader is probably even more terrifying than they imagined.
Patriarch, I caught a living. Soon another crocodile soldier reported back.
Quick, bring him here. Weber said hastily.
Soon, a crocodile soldier with a dull expression was brought over.
Tell me, what happened just now? Weber asked hastily. He is now not only concerned about the situation of the Messenger, but also about what happened.
Monster! What a big monster! Lightning! The crocodile soldier seemed to be answering Weber's question, or muttering to himself.
What happened to this guy? He's even scared out of his mind. The few words that popped out of the other party's mouth not only did not clear up Weber's confusion, but made him even more confused, but he is not a witch doctor. , there is really no way to do this.
On the contrary, the crocodile soldier who escorted him up couldn't stand it, so he slapped him four or five times with his backhand, and said in a rough voice, Speak well.
Because it happened so fast, it was too late for Weber to stop it, but it was a bit strange that this brutal method actually took effect. The crocodile soldier looked like he had just woken up from a dream, his eyes regained a bit of sobriety, intermittently The whole process was described, so that Weber had a clearer understanding of the whole thing.
However, what this crocodile soldier repeatedly mentioned was the monster that descended from the sky with a storm and lightning, seriously injured their patriarch Klein, and overturned most of their warships with the storm.
It was obvious that the monster had left a serious psychological shadow on him.
But the story he said was a bit like a legend, with a sense of distortion from the inside to the outside.
The most important thing is that when he was just fished out of the water, he still looked insane, and Weber didn't dare to give too much credit to what he said.
But he was not the only crocodile soldier who fell into the water, and soon other crocodile soldiers who hadn't escaped were caught one after another.
The process they describe is almost the same as the first person said.
Weber had to believe that what happened earlier was that the legend had become a reality, and the interception that was about to succeed was completely destroyed just like that. Klein, one of the strongest members of the crocodile tribe, was seriously injured and fled away.
At this moment, Weber was a little unable to describe his mood. The thing that hovered in his mind the most was the monster they mentioned the most.
Not much smaller than a warship, it looks exactly like an eagle, with lightning on its body, can control the storm, and its body is translucent...
Putting all these conditions together, I still can't imagine its overall appearance.
The more you know about the Yong Ye army leader, the more you can't see him clearly. When you unravel one veil, you find that there is another veil hidden behind him. No one knows how many layers of veils he hides, which one is He really is.
Judging from the current situation, there is no need for them to chase.
Out of caution, Weber still led his own fleet and chased all the way to the Donau River, only to see the figure of the Envoy from a distance, and a dozen merchant ships from the Yongye Army Commander had already gathered around it.
These merchant ships are equipped with varying numbers of armed personnel on board. Relying on the large size of the merchant ships, their combat effectiveness is quite good. One or two crocodile warships may not be able to move them.
If Klein wanted to move them again, he would have to use an army, and there was no way to keep secrets.
What's more, the opponent also has a monster that is difficult to distinguish between real and fake.
Weber observed the sky above the Messenger himself, and found a suspected black spot, circling around it, the coldness in his heart became more obvious.
Weber returned to the territory with a heavy heart, and first ventilated with the other elders to discuss the follow-up method of compensation.
Although the situation has not slipped to an irreversible level, Klein's unauthorized actions still made them very passive. Who knows if the leader of the Yongye army will use the problem to make use of it.
And Klein didn't know if he was worried about the accusations from the Council of Elders. After the incident, he never returned to the Council of Elders, but returned to his tribe without saying a word, including the soldiers of his tribe. He didn't know what he had received. Order, all broke away from the parliamentary coalition forces and returned to their lair.
Although the council of elders got the news in advance, there was no way to stop it. Once the face was torn apart, there would be no room for relaxation.
Fortunately, Klein has always had a bad temper, and basically has no allies in the Council of Elders. Few people follow suit in this kind of extreme thing.
Because once this is done, it means cutting off the relationship with the Council of Elders and isolating oneself. Most people don't have the courage.
Just mobilizing this force of less than 20,000 combat power will not cause irreparable damage to their overall situation.
But in this way, the Crocodile Clan's assistance to the Yong Ye Army Leader became more urgent.
