Black Scepter Chapter 18: Heavy losses

>It seems that Morpheus who has watched all this does not know where he is at the moment-he can’t even feel his existence, Morpheus just saw a scene he once experienced-hunting in the forest day and night Surviving and reciting that "Confessions", Tang Jidi de sucked his **** with a cigarette bag...

Just before he could see his experience of the Hooke Town bandits, the surrounding scene suddenly changed-Morpheus quickly recognized that this was Sphinx’s memory... its performance in the arena , Followed the killing journey of Morpheus all the way until it suddenly got rid of the control of Morpheus briefly, and ran away in the darkness of Arantis...

Sphinx ran in the dark and came to the huge portal of Nayarantis, it seemed to be listening to something whispering—and here it even saw the giant who had got rid of the Morpheus control before. Snake Hydera... The two warcraft stared straight at the plane portal that had not yet shown its full form, and saw the scene of the abyss reflected when it was intermittently connected to the abyss plane.

But this intermittent link does not allow the two high-level Warcraft to pass through. They stood here for a long time, and finally heard another whispered call, the two Warcraft flew to the other side of the mountain... An inconspicuous gap was found in the endless darkness, and finally a vague figure in a black robe was seen.

A portal built in the stone room was opened, and Sphinx and Hydera were completely deterred by the figure’s strength and jumped into the portal uncontrollably...

Oncoming, the view of the abyss that never seemed to be dark came over.

Fear, enslavement, Sphinx and Hydera are like animals here, driven by that terrifying figure to fight countless hostile forces-there are blood races, there are abyss demons, and even dark black wings Fallen angel!

And the figure that has always enslaved Sphinx and Hydera finally appeared in a battle-Mandala, the "fear communicator" once called by Patriarch Brest, the real strength seems to be far Far from being as simple as the "monarchy", its existence is obviously the leader of one party, and the scene that makes Morpheus feel incomprehensible is that an angel he knows appears in the abyss plane!

In Sphinx's memory, Urie appeared on the abyss plane. [Just find the novel material]

But it was too late to see more, Morpheus felt that the scene in front of him suddenly began to disintegrate, and almost instantly, his eyes regained a darkness-after the vision was clear, he saw that she was holding energy. A scene of depleted crystal nuclei.

"It's over so soon?"

His brain was a bit unclear about the impact of the scenes he had just seen. His body had an inexplicable weakness, and the nearby Sphinx and Hydera were also insane.

However, in response to his question, Jeana did not answer slowly, until Morpheus looked up at her curiously, and the knight who had never spoken before said: "I just... saw you Memory."

Morpheus was stunned. What he wanted to say, but in the end he still didn’t say it. Seeing that Jeana was recalling something fascinating, he suddenly felt an inexplicable feeling--

After all, Morpheus inadvertently showed his completeness to another person, even though his so-called "" has nothing to say at all, but still has such a special meaning.

The atmosphere was suddenly embarrassing. Soul Na’s soul almost saw all the efforts made by Morpheus in her life and the precious memories guarded by her heart. However, when she looked at him now standing in front of her again, she felt as if she was in the world. .

"I think...I need a break."

Morpheus stepped out of the stone room with some embarrassment. He wanted to breathe some fresh air. He went straight to the circle of Arantis and went to the surface. He didn’t know that he had just walked out of this underground city and received his father Acar. Letter from the Duke.

After opening reading, he froze for a while.

Hiddink, Corvin, and Boozer may be killed. Lilith stuns the guards riding her guard and leads half of the squadron on the journey of searching. There is always the danger of encountering the enemy. For this reason, the Duke of Acar has already At least three brigades were dispatched to attack the enemy-occupied area overnight, but the consequences were simply unknown.

The Duke has made all his efforts, and even sent three Holy Grail knights to rescue, but the team that has passed the best rescue time can only find corpses or negotiate outside the enemy base camp-as for the other... The Duke can only rely on whether the "creed" controlled by Morpheus can provide more information to help. *

After thinking for a while, Morpheus hurried to Earl’s Court. He got a map of the continent from Hegel, and found an incumbent intelligence officer to contact Varian Konsa directly behind the "creed". Nas also requested to provide all the information about the border of Nale-he himself calculated the distance from here to the northern border of Byzantine and the time required by the scale...

Strategy and move.

This is the experience that Morpheus has learned after countless battles—anxiety is useless, how to maximize the use of resources at hand is the real thing to do, Hegel analyzed with his military knowledge The current war situation that Lampard is about to face, in short, is that the opponent cannot pose too many threats to the territory within about ten days.

This time is enough for Morpheus to ride Hydera and rush to Nale and return.

Suppressing the panic in his heart, he sat on Hegel’s seat steadily and placed a list, including the scroll of the spell to be prepared and the amount of food he carried, and finally chose Sunderland to follow I went there all the time-but before waiting for Morpheus to take the next step, Andalier, who had been staying in Earl's Court, came behind Morpheus and asked him to raise his head.

"There is something wrong with your soul."

Andariel’s eyes narrowed, but the little girl touched her, but she looked serious and abnormal. "Don’t you know how low-level mistakes you have made?"

Morpheus understands that because of the contract, his connection with Andalil’s soul made her aware of the fact that she used the Soul Circle, but where did the “low-level error” come from?

"Show your soul in front of others, how stupid is this thing?"

Andariel seems very excited. She was born in purgatory and she understands the terrible consequences of a person’s soul if exposed to others. Until now, she still has a lingering fear...because Morpheus stays longer in the circle , You will see what he should not see!

Morpheus was not bluffed by Andariel in a few words, he has no time to take care of these now, just got up and said: "Stupid? I think sometimes it is not good to be too smart."

After he finished, he walked towards the mage lab, ignoring Andariel who squeezed his fists—he didn’t even notice that the latter was wearing a weird robe today.

At the same time, he did not notice the faint breath of Andariel’s body...

Lilith rubbed her shoulders and ran her teeth on the wilderness.

When fighting with the head guard who guarded herself, she was almost broken by the opponent, but with her unequivocal martial arts, the knight managed to get rid of the "prison" of the Duke and lead her. The squadron and reserve team embarked on the road to find Hiddink.

Because the Duke didn’t let anyone know that she was "footed", no one raised any objections when the major ordered to send troops, but because of the eagerness of saving people, Lilith did not let the team carry a lot of supplies, she also Knowing that her behavior is tantamount to defiance of military orders, she should beheaded directly as the law is serious, but whenever she thinks of Hiddink and the noble cavalry regiment rushing towards the enemy, she really feels that she might as well follow them at that moment And rush to a huge number of enemies.

Is it impulsive?

Lilith understands that she is very impulsive, but she knows better that if she becomes bloodless with the cold armor, the whole life will be meaningless again.

It was too late, and the team could not find a trail at night. Lilith, who was forced to stop, looked at the map anxiously, biting her lips—had Hiddink and others already killed? Will they be executed on the spot or be taken as captives to the base camp of the country of Nare?

Although it has entered the spring, the cold wind at night still makes people cold. Lilith, who has frozen fingers, sits silently in front of the campfire and prays silently.

......

And a hundred miles away, the missing cavalry regiment is in a terrible situation at the moment.

The Cavalry Regiment divided into two teams to commit suicide charges suffered heavy losses. Hiddink knew that he might lose many brothers who fought together this time, and the final battle result also showed this-100 in the whole regiment Seventy people, forty members of the nobility, only twenty-seven survived after the battle and were captured.

Because they are well-equipped, 20 out of the 27 are nobles—and seven of the ordinary cavalry were directly executed on the spot by the enemies of Nale, saving 20 nobles because of serious injuries and cold. Three days later became seventeen people1.

More than 100 dead comrades lay on the plain forever, which is an unbearable and terrible loss, but Hiddink understands that if he doesn’t do this, even the team with Lilith will be engulfed, At that time, the number of casualties may have doubled up...

But is it worth it?

His left leg was crushed by the warhorse when he fell, and it was twisted aside at this moment, but the pain on it was always no match for the pain in his heart. Countless times, he endured the tears that had spread to his eyes. Those familiar faces will never appear again, and their death will only be a sacrifice that most civilians in the empire will not know about, and will die away silently in history.

Why did you come to the frontline?

Hidink sighed and even hoped to close his eyes and sleep directly~IndoMTL.com~ The broken ribs made a noise when breathing and twisting the body. He looked in the wooden prison cage. Looking around, not far away, the wound on Cowen's shoulder, which was pierced by the arrow, no longer bleeds. He noticed Hiddink's gaze, grinning reluctantly, and said nothing.

Not far away, Boozer was still panting, but the situation was clearly not optimistic. He was lying in another cage and fell into a coma, his forehead was hot, a crowd of people huddled in the cold wind, trying to keep With body temperature.

How long can it last?

Hiddink accurately recorded the course of the only remaining nobles after they were captured, but now it’s simply a wish to escape. Seventeen surviving nobles are all wounded, although the group of knights in Nalle It looks like he is going to use himself as a captive in exchange for ransom, but only giving cold brown bread and limited water every day, it is still a big question how long they can live.

Looking up, Hiddink couldn’t help but lament that war is really a huge vortex of hatred. Even though he has read countless works, he can hardly heal his inner hatred when he is faced with the trauma of war.
