The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 161 A Great Opportunity Just Missed
William has to admit that Elastre is a very attractive woman. This doesn't just refer to whether she is beautiful or not, but her natural personality charm and temperament. If it wasn't for William's heart that had experienced various tempers in his previous life (It can also be said that it is now relatively easy to control the secretion of some hormones in the body), I am afraid that he will become its staunch supporter like a certain dark elf, and he will help count the money when he is sold.

If it is said that this kind of charm in Helen is shrewd and sees through people's hearts, then Alastriol is a natural superior, a legendary figure that people can't help but surround him.

Alustron is good at remembering different faces, names, voices, and traits, as well as remembering ten or more things at the same time.No matter how complicated and trivial things are, Alastriol can always handle them with ease, and maintains her usual calm, calm and elegant demeanor.

Although Ms. Hope showed a little humor at the beginning, she soon entered a certain "brainwashing" state exclusive to her.From ordinary people's point of view, the meeting with Madam Supreme was extremely honored and relaxed, but it brought William a great pear, and made him have an urge to turn around and run away.

"Mr. William, we should have dispatched more people to protect the child, but for some reason, this idea could not be carried out, so Hellen could only let the best swordsman in Shadow Valley, Skylark Al, It's Elm who lives in seclusion in Hills, but"

"Now we can only entrust her to you. You know, that is an extremely painful decision. You can use any method and any method to ensure that the child will not fall into the hands of evil. We will never add more Intervene, if... I mean, if, you are convinced that it is no longer possible to keep the child safe, then... then kill her. Compared with the tragic end of falling into the hands of those religious fanatics, death is better for the poor child It’s a relief to say it.” At this time, Ms. Elastre looked so sad, so sad, as if the greatest misfortune in the world was escaping from her mouth, full of contagion.

But William felt a coldness from the bottom of his heart. This girl is really not simple. She is indeed Hellen's sister. She talked so much in a long way, and she just wanted to let the Sa family take their lives to protect Xiao Milu. Na, Elm, you poor ghost, you really didn't die unjustly, but you made me miserable.Although he had already scolded some people to the eighteenth generation of his ancestors in his heart, on the surface William couldn't help nodding his head very cooperatively. He was so obedient that he almost shouted the slogan "Promise to the ****" at the top of his voice. .

As he was talking, Elastre finally realized that the kid in front of him was simply playing tricks on himself. How could William’s nature, as Yixiron said, be so talkative and without position? She was a little sullen. Said: "Okay, there is no need to continue acting. What Xillen said is indeed true, you are a difficult boy who does not get into it. I really don't know how Santilla persuaded you in the first place." In fact, Santilla La didn't ask for help at all, and the two "dogs and men" were willing to fight, and the other was willing to suffer. They just squeezed out all the allies, and almost monopolized the great fortune that the family has worked hard for generations.

William straightened his face again and said in a concentrated voice: "You don't have to say that such a big deal is useless. Since I have promised Elm, oh, it should be said that it is the promise of Lark, I will naturally do what I have to do. You should understand I basically understand everything. In short, enemies are all over the world, and there are almost no allies. The place to go is far away, and the journey is difficult. Although it is not a good job, I will try my best to complete it. If there is nothing else, Tomorrow I will leave here and hit the road."

Elastra said: "Wait, you have to know that long-distance adventures are not a simple matter. Have you ever thought about how to set off, which route to take, and what identity to cover up?"

Although he already had a general plan in mind, William still wanted to hear the advice of the city lord in front of him.He asked with interest: "Oh, do you have any good suggestions?"

Alaszhuo held back for a while, and said: "First of all, William, you have to understand that this work cannot be covered up. For those enemies, there are almost no secrets about the child. Because the ultimate advocates are the gods, they can learn everything through the souls of the dead. Therefore, it is not advisable and useless to hide your tracks, and you can only act openly."

William's face froze, and he smiled bitterly at himself: "To be honest, your statement is frustrating. It's not a wonderful thing to blatantly stand up as a target for others. You are dampening my enthusiasm and destroying my enthusiasm. self-confidence."

Alas Zhuo smiled confidently: "Listen to William, things are not as bad as you imagined. Our sisters and some allies will publicly declare their support for you. Although we can't provide much help, we will prepare a place for you The comfortable place in the city is still possible, and it can also guarantee that those neutral cities will not embarrass you on the surface, of course, secret plots, ambushes, assassinations, etc. are inevitable."

William rubbed his nose and said, "From your point of view, it seems that there are still some hostile cities that need to be careful."

Alaszhuo nodded and said: "Yes, there are two places, and they are the two most troublesome places, Locke Town and Dagger Falls, one is the last human city before entering the Ennook Desert, and the other is after leaving the desert. The first city, these two places are basically under the control of Zhentarim spies, so you have to be careful."

William couldn't help pulling his face into a wry smile and said, "Be careful, there's nothing wrong with it. Surrounded by the army, even I can't protect myself, let alone carry a few burdens. By the way, there is a question I have always wanted to ask you, your city How many troops are there, why can’t I find your barracks.”

Alaszhuo said proudly: "Five hundred knights who have received the most rigorous training, and a reserve team of 100 people, and there are about [-] other mages and spies. Even in the entire North This is also the most”

"Ahahaha! Hahaha——" William couldn't help laughing wildly when he heard the words, almost falling off his chair, laughing so hard that tears seemed to flow out.

Alaszhuo pretended to be unhappy and said: "What's so funny, what I said is the truth. As the largest city in the Northland, it is not surprising that there are so many troops. Don't you believe it?"
William barely stopped laughing wildly: "No, I believe it! I believe it [-]%! Hahaha——!"

Seeing that Ellas was really upset, he quickly explained: "Don't be angry, I'm not laughing at you, but at myself. Haha! It's really not fun to scare yourself. If I had known it earlier , Why was it so embarrassing a while ago. Hahaha!"

After laughing for a while, William stopped to make sure again: "Are you sure that there are only a few hundred troops in Silvermoon City?"

Alaszhuo said with a sullen face: "You are really inexplicable, not to mention in the Northland, even in the entire Sword Coast area, only Waterdeep City with a population of over [-] has more standing troops than Silvermoon City, but in terms of The elite level is far inferior. To be honest, you are a strange guy, what is it about these military affairs that makes you laugh?"

Is it funny?Of course it's funny.An army of hundreds of people, if it is an army armed with modern thermal weapons, William may feel a headache, but it is only a headache.But now the world he lives in is in the era of cold weapons, and he really doesn't pay attention to the small team of hundreds of people.

Of course, if he was facing the strongest elite in the past, such as the fallen soldiers of the Three Kingdoms, the Xuanjia iron cavalry in the early Tang Dynasty, or the Beiwei army of the Yue family in the Song Dynasty, William would definitely hide as far away as possible.However, William has seen the so-called regular knights of Silver Moon, they are just some well-trained ordinary fighters, and they are good at fighting with small groups within a small range.

What are martial artists who practice real martial arts? Martial artists who practice real martial arts are ancient generals, especially those who have cultivated to the level of dark energy and transformation energy. That is the so-called enemy of thousands of people, enemy of ten thousand people, riding a strong horse , wear heavy armor, draw a strong bow, hold a big gun and close the knife, it is common sense among millions of troops to break through the enemy, rush into the formation, slash the generals and seize the flag. With William's current talent and strength, it is definitely close to Lu Bu and Li Yuanba in ancient times. Even if there is a difference between the unparalleled generals, the gap is extremely limited. It is a breeze to deal with a group of small local army-style gangsters.

If this world didn't have all kinds of weird magic and divine arts, and the protagonist of the land is far from human beings, with thousands of strange races and innate abilities emerging one after another, William would definitely be able to walk sideways, of course, now he has to clamp it a little bit Tail.Although William didn't suffer too much from spells, the experience of being sexually harassed by two old women in Mirabar last time was enough for him to engrave in his heart for a lifetime.

William smiled and said, "At first, I thought you said how serious the mission was, and it scared me so much that I lacked confidence. But after hearing what you said about the military situation in the entire Northland, it made me feel much more at ease. .Hey, beautiful lady, how about a discussion, lend me a hundred knights, I will sweep all the way, and if anyone dares to block the way and feel uncomfortable, the Sajia will directly destroy the city and destroy the country, plus punishment Nine tribes."

At this time, William was really mad. He couldn't help thinking that if he had the opportunity, he would definitely form a small team. The number of people didn't need to be too many, just a hundred or so.William believes that after his own training, if the facts are true as Alastriol said, it is definitely not a joke to attack cities in the Northland and the Sword Coast. There are not many big strategies in the battles between small teams The most important thing is the cooperation of the team, the command of tactics, and the bravery of the general. In this regard, William definitely has a great advantage.

Eraszhuo curled his lips and said: "What a brazen guy, go ahead and dream! Still destroying the country? I don't want my loyal subordinates to die for no reason!"

William deliberately shook his head and sighed: "Oh! You just missed a great opportunity. When you regret it later, don't blame me for not giving you the opportunity."
