our family is gone

Chapter 332 Eagle Group Organization
In a small village in the empire, the villagers were gathered and huddled on the ground, trembling, and around them stood barbarian warriors who were dressed differently from them, and there were white wolves roaming around in a circle, no one dared to escape at all, because The model is the corpse that has been eaten by wolves and only the bones are left.

"Even the most cowardly gophers in the mountains would fight back, they'd just yell whatever we did."

"That's right, these Imperials are simply weaker than gophers."

"..."

Those barbarian warriors were chatting, and seemed to dislike these ordinary people for not resisting, which made them lose the fun of hunting.

You must know that the barbarians in the mountains are very tough regardless of men, women, or children. When they break through those tribes, everyone will take up arms and resist fiercely.

Their faces completely lost the depression they had just walked out of the mountains. After the war wolf led the massacre of several villages, they finally regained the confidence they used to wreak havoc on the mountains in these farmers who could only wield hoes.

It was even a little too much, completely forgetting that I was scattered by the cavalry at that time, and I was chased and hid in the mountains to escape.

It's just that the focus is not on them, but on the leader of this team, Zhan Lang.

At this time, the war wolf was sitting cross-legged on the ground, holding a wooden carving of a wolf's head in his hand. If Lance saw this thing, he would definitely recognize that it was similar to the one captured from the wolf head.

It's just that the one in Wolf Warrior's hand looks more primitive, and the wolf's head in it also seems to have a certain charm, as if it rushed out of the wood in the next second.

This is a prop with the power of the wolf god, and it is also a means for the wolf head tribe to accept the power of the wolf god from outsiders.

It is very difficult to find their own goals in such a large area of ​​​​the empire, so the wolf warrior must rely on the guidance of the wolf god.

After setting up the ceremony site, War Wolf placed the wolf head statue on it, and let out an inhuman howl with a solemn face, just like howling a wolf.

And the barbarian warriors in the surrounding area also changed in an instant, facing that side with serious expressions, even the wolves who had been walking around stopped and faced the center of the ceremony, as if something was attracting them .

"The ceremony begins!" Zhan Lang turned his head sharply, his eyes didn't look human at all at that moment, and he looked at those ordinary people like a wolf.

Stopping children from crying at night is not a joke, almost all the villagers were scared out of their wits by this sight.

But those barbarian warriors don't talk nonsense. They already knew what the ceremony required, and immediately grabbed a villager and dragged him to the ceremony, and knelt down facing the wolf's head.

And in the next second, he waved the knife coldly.

There was only a click, and the skinny head, which had been scratched by the wind and sun, fell and rolled, and the panic on his face hadn't even faded away, making him look extremely ferocious.

The blood splashed from the neck and splashed directly on the wolf head statue.

In just two or three seconds, the decapitated body lost all support and collapsed, leaving only a small trickle of blood flowing out.

This scene finally awakened the absent-minded villagers. They were so frightened that they howled in panic, mixed with various begging for mercy, making the scene extremely chaotic.

But how could these unarmed villagers be the elite opponents of the murderous barbarians? The scene was quickly brought under control, and they were pulled out and beheaded one by one, and the blood almost soaked the entire ceremony.

All the barbarian warriors were so bloody, their souls were all possessed by animal nature, and the strange features on their faces were not human-like, but rather like wolves.

What's even more weird is that countless blood was splashed on it, but there was no trace of blood on the wolf head statue that should be bloody.

The only strange thing in the whole scene was only the God-chosen wolf who could see the spirituality contained in the wolf's head continued to strengthen, turning into a slight black smoke lingering on it.

Human sacrifice, this is a very common ritual in the mountains. The tribe will use the life and blood of the enemy as a sacrifice to the spirit of the wilderness.

Every kill of the war wolf represents the increase in the power of the wolf god, which is why although the tribal priests are dissatisfied with his actions, it is difficult to object.

God's Choice shows that War Wolf is very favored by the Wolf God, and it also makes him the second person in the tribe who can communicate with the Wolf God except the priest.

Please use the human sacrifice ceremony to please the wolf god, and then the war wolf pursues the position of the blood of the wolf god.

The black smoke lingering on the statue began to shake, and then slowly drifted in one direction.

The war wolf who got the guidance also looked there, which is why he was sure to find the lost blood.

Along the way, he has gradually approached the target by relying on this trick, although the cost is to slaughter a few villages, which is nothing to barbarians like them.

The blood of the ritual material is inexhaustible, and he is bound to become a legend!
"Ow~"

A wolf howl in the distance instantly broke the fanatical sacrifice scene, and the war wolf also realized what was happening. Looking up, he saw a falcon hovering high in the sky.

Seeing this, he quickly got up and held up the wolf head statue, turned around and shouted at the warriors of the tribe.

"Let's go! Those guys are catching up and going into the wilderness."

Those barbarian warriors came back to their senses as if they had realized something. They were no longer arrogant at all, and even had a bit of fear.

Regardless of the messy and bloody scene, he quickly took the looted supplies and went into the wilderness.

Zhan Lang took one last look at the falcon in the sky, and turned to follow unwillingly.

It was the nobles who defeated them in Bastia that chased them down.

As soon as they came out of the mountains, they slaughtered wantonly, which naturally attracted the attention of the local aristocratic lord, and the news soon attracted the attention of the lord of Bastia, and an army came after them.

It's not that he doesn't have the courage to fight, it's just that the task has not been completed, and he needs to preserve his strength.

It was absolutely impossible for him to bear this tone before, but now he knows how to choose and hide, or this is the growth after experiencing so many things along the way.

If he was allowed to complete the task of bloodline promotion and go back, I'm afraid he could really lead the Fanglang tribe back to the top.

But now he needs to lead the team to escape the siege of the noble army...

Not long after Zhan Lang led his people away, a group of cavalry came to this village that was massacred like hell, and the thick blood filled the air with a smell of rust.

And the ground, which was just mud, also turned into red mud due to the penetration of blood, and countless bloody mud spots were splashed directly when the horse stepped on it.

This cavalry team only has about twenty people, but these people are well-equipped, all wearing full-body knight armor, even the horses are covered with armor, with bows and arrows, lances, and knight long swords hanging on their sides.

From these excellent equipment, it can be seen that these people are probably real knights. They have undergone rigorous training since they were young, and they have become knights step by step from knight retinues.

The cost of building such a cavalry unit is very high, especially now that the land is all divided, and it is no longer possible to support knights by dividing territories as before.

It is estimated that these knights have the title of knights but no actual knights' collars. They are completely dependent on the lords. I am afraid that only powerful territories can maintain them.

Of course, the combat power of these knights is very terrifying in this era, basically a small tank, no wonder the barbarian warriors led by the war wolf were directly dispersed.

"Damn! Let them run away again." Alvin couldn't help roaring when he saw the scene in front of him.

This sound made the BMW under his crotch feel his anger, and he couldn't help but step up to stabilize his figure.

Although ordinary people are not as distressing as the weeds on the side of the road to the nobles, they are also his weeds. How could they just sit back and watch them being mowed like this.

What was even more annoyed was that he still let those savages escape repeatedly after chasing him all the way, as if he was being tricked, no wonder he was so angry.

Alvin's knight armor is more refined than other styles. Needless to say, it can be seen that he is a real nobleman and the leader of this cavalry.

As one of the many children of the lord of Bastia, he is not the eldest son and is not eligible to inherit his father's territory, so he was raised as a knight from birth.

He has been taught by a famous teacher, and he is also striving to lead a cavalry team at a young age. It was the cavalry team led by him that defeated the war wolf.

It's just that the army can't move rashly, and at the same time, in order to facilitate the recovery, only a part of the elite was selected to chase those barbarians.

"Wow!"

A sharp cry sounded, and the falcon hovering in mid-air plunged into the nearby forest.

Alvin seemed to have a feeling and looked over there, only to see a strange team walking out of the forest on the side of the village.

Basically, the body is mostly decorated with feathers, and the dark green hood covers the head and face inside.

The bows and arrows in the hands of these people are not the shape of the empire, but a dark green short bow, and most of them are accompanied by falcons.

It is obvious that these people are not imperial people, but barbarians from the mountains.

And one of them is even more special, with a white bird head mask and more gorgeous feather decorations, and even has some kind of special power.

And the falcon that was circling in the sky just now was on the leader's shoulder, and its sharp eagle eyes seemed to have some kind of wisdom far beyond that of animals.

From the attire and equipment configuration, it can be clearly seen that these guys are not from the empire, but more like the barbarians from the mountains.

Alvin naturally knew who these people were.

Not all the mountain barbarians are hostile to the empire. There are quite a few tribes that have a good relationship with the empire.

The most special thing is that these guys, before the establishment of Bastia, the conflict between the two sides was very fierce, and the empire was often unbearable.

Because the barbarians can go down the mountain to plunder, rob money, food and people, and take anything as long as they can take it away.

However, the small-scale army of the empire couldn't beat them barbarians, and they hid in the mountains as soon as the army came.

And their family is just a baron's territory, but they were enfeoffed here, and their family is the one that loses every time they are looted.

Fortunately, the three generations of the family worked hard to develop gradually and steadily annexed the land. By the time his father's generation had pushed the territory to the Bastia Canyon.

Then, regardless of the cost, the fortress was built with great efforts. At this time, the mountain barbarians also realized that once the fortress was built, they would lose their way to enter the empire, so several powerful tribes jointly launched an attack here.

He didn't know the details of that battle. His parents were always vague about it, but it could be seen that they defeated the barbarian coalition forces, and the important city of Bastia in the northwest of the empire was built.

And his own family also relied on this fortress to prosper, and their strength increased greatly. Originally, the family's noble title was only a baron, but after this battle, they also became the Earl of Bastia, vaguely separatist.

This is the drawback of the aristocratic system. Once a certain aristocrat is too powerful, it will form a confrontation with the central government. Although Bastia did not make it clear, it is also secretly separatist.

On the other hand, those few large tribes went downhill directly because of the heavy losses in this battle, and among them was the Fanglang tribe.

What's interesting here is that one of these tribes, the Eagle Claw tribe, suffered heavy losses after the battle, but they made a decision that even Alvin found incredible.

He finished the fight the day before, and brought the entire Eagle Claw Tribe into service the next day. On the third day, he changed his name to the Eagle Group and joined Bastia.

And the even more outrageous earl even gave their leader the title of baron. Although there is no fiefdom, it is obvious what it means.

Alvin knew that his father's move was to appease the barbarians, and he did it for them. After all, dealing with the barbarians would be indispensable in the future, and there would always be barbarians who would come to work under his tenderness, thereby dividing them.

The behavior of the Eagle Claw tribe was looked down upon by the mountain barbarians, who regarded them as a disgrace to the mountains, but the Eagles standing behind the earl did not decline like those tribes, and lived a very prosperous life on the contrary.

He even helped the family do a lot of private work with the help of that special ability, and often made a lot of contributions as a reconnaissance unit to assist the army's operations.

This eagle group was sent by their father to help them track down those barbarians, otherwise how could they have found it with a team of cavalry.

"Is this how you lead the way?" Alvin raised his hand and raised his mask, revealing a youthful face, but the attitude towards those people was obviously resentful, but not hostile.

The attitude between the two shows that they are not hostile, and they are quite familiar with each other.

"Those idiots were frightened by the cavalry led by Lord Alvin before, so naturally they fled in embarrassment like dogs.

But we have already locked them, the distance is getting closer and they can't escape, and soon the adults will be able to take them down. "

The leader with the bird head mask did not show any abnormality, but used a flattering tone to appease Alvin.

But Alvin is not an idiot. Although he is not the eldest son, he is still a beneficiary of the aristocratic education system.

"Huh! It's best." Alvin raised his hand and took off the helmet's mask, and turned to look in the direction where the wolf was leaving. "Hurry up and follow."

"Yes, my lord." The leader of the Eagle Group withdrew his gaze from the bloody scene, and no one knew the expression under the mask.

It's just that the members of the Eagle Group who followed him made no secret of their desire for the scene, and only one figure wrapped in a green robe seemed a little special.

"Hurry up!" Alvin noticed the disgusted expressions on the faces under their reaction helmets, and shouted to drive them away.

I don't like them too much, because these guys have inherited the bad habits of the barbarians and committed many things in the territory. If they were not useful, they would have been cleared out long ago.

A hawk dog must have the consciousness of a hawk dog...
