Chapter 141 Scattered Sand
Amidst the clanging sound, various weapons fell into a pool of blood.
The soldiers lined up silently behind Raven, all covered with fresh blood, and matched with the devil-like masks, it seemed like they were really a powerful army coming out of hell!
Manseni also dropped her hand crossbow. She looked up at Raven: "Come on."
These words made Raven stunned: "What?"< br>
"What are you pretending to be, little bee." Manseni opened her arms and puffed up her chest, closing her eyes at the same time: "I know what you want, hurry up, finish it quickly, and then get out!"
Lux cast a scrutinizing look at Raven.
Seeing that his bright image was about to collapse, Raven coughed heavily and quickly changed the subject: "...let's go in and talk."
Lux took two steps and came to Raven behind.
Manseni glanced at Raven suspiciously, and then at Lux behind him, feeling surprised and uncertain in her heart.
Will the little bee also change gender one day?
When he arrived at the living room, Raven sat down on the sofa wrapped in gold thread with ease and picked up a bottle of wine from the shelf next to him: "Oh, Tears of Angels, it tastes good."
Manseni was not in a good mood, not only because Raven had just killed many of her men, but more importantly, Raven was now sitting in the seat that should have been reserved for her father.
But Manseni had to admit that Raven's posture while sitting on the sofa was impeccable. He seemed casual, but his gestures were far more majestic than her father's.
She felt extremely strange for a moment.
Is this still the Raven she knew?
Pouring Lux and himself wine, Raven asked: "Where is your father?"
Manceni glanced at Raven: "...captured by Honduras. ”
The reason why there are so many people here today is because Mansani wants to kill the Split Tooth War Gang and save her father.
"You deserve it." Raven said.
"You...!" Manseni was aroused, but she didn't dare to explode.
Raven didn't care what she thought: "The undead army of the Order of the Hand of Death has entered the city."
Manseni had a sudden thought in her heart, and just as she was about to ask a question, she heard Raven Continued: "I need people from the Brotherhood of the Silver Hand Scatter out and collect information - how many and where are the Death Hand strongholds in the lower city, and where are the traces of undead activity in the city? "
After all, he is a scout, so he can't just go out and wander around. Do something serious.
“Rescue my father and I will promise you!” Manseni mustered up the courage.
"Do the work first." Raven said without any doubt: "If you do well enough, I will consider it."
Manseni's face darkened: "Raven, I know you are a baron now. But don’t forget that the Silver Hand Brotherhood is able to gain a foothold in Men’en City because of...”
“With the support of the Slater family,” Raven took over: “I know, but even if I am today. here If I destroy you, will the Slater family still come to cause trouble for me?"
Lei Wen took a sip of Angel Tears and said, "The three major gangsters in the Lower City are all dogs of the Slater family. Today, If you die, there will be someone more obedient tomorrow. "
"You don't think that your father is really a person just because he holds the title of 'knight'?"
Manseni's face was pale, and she looked at Raven with a trace of hatred, but she could not refute Raven's words.
"Recognize the reality." Raven said calmly: "Meng'en City has been destroyed, and the Lower City will soon fall. The Slater family themselves have too much time to take care of themselves, can they still take care of you?"< br>
“ If you want to live, do good things for me."
Taking a deep breath, Manseni clenched her fists: "Your will will be carried out."
"Baron!"
After saying that, he turned around and retreated.
Looking at the departing figure, Raven showed a smile on his face.
The gangster lady who used to be unattainable is now obeying her. This feeling...
Wonderful!
Lux glanced at her curiously, Raven adjusted his clothes and calmed down his expression.
There is no shortage of masters in handling corpses among the gangs. Soon the corpses in the square were taken away and the blood stains were cleaned up. Except for the faint smell of blood in the air, there was no trace of the battle.
Leiwen stood by the window, overlooking the square from a high position, and felt a sense of emotion in his heart.
When I was living in Men'en City, my wildest ambition was to become a small boss, in charge of more than a dozen people. I didn't have to go out and run around every day, and I could live a moist and dignified life just by earning achievements.
But now, he is standing in the study of the president of the Silver Hand Brotherhood, controlling the fate of the entire gang.
The former aloof president was no longer an ant that could be crushed to death in his eyes.
Things are unpredictable!
It was getting dark, and the members of the Silver Hand Brotherhood who had returned from all directions gathered the news into the hands of Manseni, who sorted it out and handed it to Raven.
After the report, she hurriedly left the study, as if she was afraid that Raven would do something to her.
Raven did not pay attention to her. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the information, he left Eric to protect Lux and returned to the Fourth Army's temporary camp with a group of soldiers. Camp.
The consequences of the city's destruction are beginning to show. Scattered cannon fodder skeletons have begun to appear on the streets. In some places, corpses can be seen lying on the roadside. When he returned to the city gate, Raven discovered that some of the subsequent supplies had been transported, the camp was beginning to take shape, and Raven also saw some soldiers of the Iron Legion.
Entering the Fourth Legion’s camp, Raven happened to catch the tail end of a military meeting.
The issue that everyone is discussing is when to continue to go deeper.
During the discussion, Raven learned that although Minsk led the team to the breach of the city, they were attacked by the Death Hand Order regardless of the cost. The Steel Brigade lost nearly two men in one battle. Hundreds of people, and Minsk himself was plotted by the Necromancer, and had to retreat to the inner city under the protection of his personal guards.
Some soldiers of the Iron Legion were separated from the main force and retreated here.
If the entrance cannot be blocked, the Death Hand's army will be able to pour in without any scruples. At that time, the camp here will no longer be safe, and they must retreat to the inner city and join the Slater family.
This is also unanimously agreed upon by all nobles.
But the problem is that Meng'en City has never been a fortress, but a fully functional city. The streets are dense and narrow, and the army cannot deploy. If you want to go to the inner city, street fighting is inevitable.
And street fighting is too dangerous. Even the fourth-level Minsk was seriously injured and his life or death was uncertain. How can they do better?
The nobles have their own opinions. A small number of people think that they should continue to gather together and advance inward together; most of them think that they should be broken into pieces. Everyone will lead their own armies. The goal is smaller and more capable. Save strength.
The party that supports breaking up into parts accounts for the majority - if the group moves forward, who can resist if the mortal bone dragon drops from the sky and sprays out a breath of dragon breath? Who can survive?
Therefore, even though Viscount John tried his best to maintain it, the newly formed Fourth Army still collapsed.
After everyone dispersed, Raven followed Viscount John to his tent.
Viscount John’s face showed fatigue and his eye sockets were sunken. As soon as he entered the tent, he sighed deeply: "Alas..."
"Legion Commander, this is for Worried about the situation?" Raven asked.
"Little guy, your mouth is really poisonous." Viscount John shook his head and chuckled: "The legion will be dispersed soon, and there will be no legion commander."
"Actually, if you really want to maintain the legion, There is a way." Raven said, holding the hilt of the sword at his waist.
Viscount John saw Raven's actions, paused slightly, and said: "Indeed, your method is indeed good. If I were twenty years younger, I might do this."
Lei The method mentioned in the article is to kill the chickens to scare the monkeys. Just pick the two who dance the most happily and have the lowest titles and kill them on the spot. Anyway, the righteousness of fighting against the hand of death is so great that no one can find fault.
Viscount John saw this, but he couldn't do that.
Killing people to establish prestige is good, but it also has endless consequences. If he were twenty years younger, he would still be able to suppress it, but now that he is old, his ambition to make contributions has long been extinguished, and he does not want to leave enemies for his descendants, especially life-and-death enemies. .
Leaven understood Viscount John’s thoughts and did not force it. He just handed over the information he had collected.
Viscount John took it, quickly scanned it and put it aside, and sighed with regret.
This information is indeed very detailed, which makes Viscount John recognize Raven's value even more.
With Raven, the scout captain who grew up in Munn City, it would be much easier if the Fourth Legion acted together, but now the people's hearts have dispersed.
Not only the Fourth Army, but in addition to the Second Army, the First and Third Army have also fallen apart.
The only hope comes from the inner city. If Minsk can come out healthy and join everyone, or if Count Tyrone comes forward, then it is possible to bring the scattered sand together.
At midnight that day, news did come from the inner city.
The content of the message is simple - no matter who can reach the inner city, they can gain the friendship of the Slater family.
The friendship of the Count family!
This was a temptation that the nobles could not refuse, and everyone's minds became active for a while.
Even the second legion, which was originally quite united, was directly thrown into disarray. After all, no one wanted to fall behind others.
That night, two nobles quietly sneaked out of the camp and headed towards the inner city.
The Slater family is simply drinking poison to quench their thirst.
But for Raven himself, this is good news.
After all, even the members of the Slater family would be hard-pressed to compare with him in terms of their familiarity with Men's City.
Farewell to Viscount John and Judra, Raven led the people to explore three roads leading to the inner city, but two of them had been blocked by undead creatures, and one was physically blocked. of destroyed.
Raven wasn't in a hurry about this, he couldn't find a way in, let alone other nobles!
That night, Raven rested at the headquarters of the Silver Hand Brotherhood.
In the next few days, people from the Silver Hand Brotherhood spread out in all directions, gradually suffering casualties, and the news they brought back became more and more explosive.
Undead creatures began to roam the streets and began to demolish houses and kill people in an organized manner. Some of the scattered nobles still remained in the camp. Anyone who tried to rush into the inner city would either return in confusion or never return. Come.
The Brotherhood of the Silver Hand even found the half-skinned head of a Viscount.
This afternoon, Raven was sitting in the study reading leisurely - I have to say that although the Silver Hand Brotherhood is a gang, they do have a large collection of books, many of which have illustrations.
Manseni started a routine report again. Most of the content was unremarkable, but the last sentence successfully caught Raven's attention:
"The Moon of Mercy Orphanage was Surrounded by undead troops."
