Original Vampire

"The Marquis is not here?"

"Yes."

"Where is he now?"

In the middle of the camp on the east side of Mirror Lake, in the largest and most luxurious camp, a man and a woman are talking.

If Colin were here, he would immediately recognize that the man who was kneeling on the ground was the Knight of the Saint Hild family who had issued an emergency call to Firefox Mercenaries.

The arrogant Knight at the beginning, but now he looks humbly.

"Master Marquis..." Facing the question of the woman in front of him, the Knight seemed a little hesitant.

"Knight Bulis, if this issue involves military orders, you don't need to talk about it." The woman did not embarrass Knight, and said softly.

This is a tall woman, wearing a slightly large white fox fur coat, a beautiful golden hair hanging from her shoulders and back, and her hair is flashing with light and shadow, as if she has Some kind of magic is so mediocre that people don't dare to look closely, but involuntarily involuntarily indulge in it.

A layer of translucent black veil covered her face, but the elegance and nobility that went deep into her bones could not be concealed.

She has an irresistible temperament in her every move.

This kind of arrogant temperament can only be possessed by the real nobles.

However, the mage hat on top of her head and a purple staff in her hand indicate that this is a mage.

This is a bit strange.

Because, in the human empire of this World, nobles and mages, although not dead enemies, are two incompatible creatures.

The reason is simple-the mages have no faith.

In the eyes of these sorcerers, only Arcane truth is the eternal pursuit.

And Spiritual God is just a powerful mortal who has mastered the truth of Arcane.

Therefore, in the eyes of the noble Knights who believe in Lord of Radiance, the group of wizards is a complete blasphemer, a heresy who should be burned to death on the stake.

However, in Glorious Empire where the nobles have absolute authority, although the mages are not welcome, they have not been persecuted too much.

The reason is also very simple-the mages are strong enough.

Of course, the non-believers mage is the same as the warrior profession, the ceiling of strength is the sixth rank, and there has never been a Sacred Domain mage.

However, it is somewhat different from the warrior.

Even if the mages cannot enter the Sacred Domain, they have a way to exert their strength above the Sacred Domain.

This method is forbidden spell.

Sufficient preparations, expensive casting materials, and extremely terrifying costs can allow the sixth rank mage to release a forbidden spell.

In the most intense period of the struggle between Glorious Church and the Mages Council, ten sixth rank wizards once joined forces to release the forbidden spell——【Starfall】.

This terrifying forbidden spell erased a city with a population of one million from the map!

Of course, the mages also paid a very heavy price for this forbidden spell.

Seven of the ten sixth rank mages died on the spot, and the remaining three also died in the next five years.

However, their sacrifice also gave the church and nobles a deep understanding of the terrifying of the mage, and eventually the two sides reached a certain degree of reconciliation.

However, the enmity left over from the millennium struggle cannot be easily resolved. With the irreconcilable contradictions in belief, nobles and mages are basically two forces that are strangers.

So, at the moment, this female mage, who can be treated respectfully by the Knights of Saint Hild family, and is suspected of being a great nobleman, seems particularly strange.

Knight Bulis saw that the female mage did not continue to question the whereabouts of Marquis Charles, and suddenly relaxed.

But after hesitating for a moment, he reminded again: "Miss Vera, you'd better stay away from this camp as soon as possible. It's...not safe..."

"Where on the battlefield It’s safe to say.” The female mage gave Knight a strange look, and said nonchalantly, “Since I’m here, I’m ready to fight.”

“No, you don’t understand. I mean." Knight Bulis increased his tone a little, "I mean, it's very dangerous here!"

The female mage only then changed her face, staring at her half-kneeling through the black veil. The former Knight asked, "Knight Bulis, what is the mission the Marquis gave you?"

——————————

"My The task is to patrol the camp on the west side and maintain order."

Knight Raymond said to Colin.

The two walked in the camp on the east side, which was much quieter and solemn than the chaotic camp on the west side.

However, it was a bit too quiet.

Colin frowns, watching the situation in the camp, his anxiety became more serious.

"Only patrolling and maintaining order? Didn't let you go to watch out around?"

"No." Raymond shook his head, obviously with the same doubts, "It's not just our squad , I haven't seen any cavalry squad spread out to serve as a sentry rider."

Colin's brow furrowed even tighter.

The importance of vision in war is self-evident.

But now, the camp stationed on the side of Mirror Lake has directly given up on the surrounding situation.

This is simply a tactical suicide!

Except for the possibility that Marquis Charles is an idiot commander, it can only show that the importance of this camp is very low.

Or, this is simply a bait!

"I am afraid that the main force of the army has long been out of the camp." Colin asked Raymond, looking at the overly quiet east camp.

"Yes, Young Master. These days there have been troops leaving the camp, but they have not been seen coming back."

"So, the main force of the regular army has left quietly, and now it is here. Only the mercenary group and civilians who were recruited by the emergency call-up order are left. Of course, there are also Knights like you who have lost their lord."

"Yes, our real mission is actually It's to watch the miscellaneous soldiers and prevent them from running around."

"Looking like this..." Colin said halfway, and saw a group of cavalry come out from the center of the camp.

The headed rider on the white horse turned out to be a woman.

Furthermore, Colin recognized the Knight immediately behind her at a glance, the one who issued the emergency call for Firefox Mercenaries.

This is a great character!

Colin, who had realized that he was in danger, immediately walked over.

Since Marquis Charles can't be found, then looking for this great character in front of you should also free him from the destiny of being a cannon fodder.

However, before Colin took a few steps, he was frightened by the harsh bugle sound.

"Woo--"

Colin turned his head suddenly and saw a group of flying birds startled in the woods in the north.

Later, amidst the tremors of the earth, a thin black and white line appeared on the horizon.

troll is here!

As if drops of water were dripping into the hot oil pan, the entire Mirror Lake camp immediately boiled.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

"Don't run around! Line up! Line up to meet the enemy!"

……

The shouts of the officers had no effect at all, and the group of mobs gathered in the camp on the west side were suddenly shocked and completely messed up.

This is the evil result of not riding a sentry. When the enemy attacks, there is not enough time to react.

In fact, even if there is enough reaction time, the group of soldiers in this camp who have been urgently called up is basically impossible to resist the regular army of troll.

Colin knows very well that the next slaughter must be one-sided!

So, he pointed to the woman who hurried eastward, and said solemnly to Raymond:

"Go, let's follow her!"
