Wizard From Afar

In the early morning of 2nd day, the Holy Cross Church army, which occupied half of the camp, quickly completed the assembly; after the bell-like preaching of Knight Nazehong of the church was over, it was led by the Knights of the various churches. With the ruins of the sentry tower as the center, spread the investigation to the surroundings, looking for any areas that may leave traces.

Although many people complained about Brandon’s orders, they thought it was "His Royal Highness repels dissidents and lets non-confidant troops take risks." However, more church troops still implemented them faithfully. Mission, braved the violent snowstorm to march to the wasteland in the distance.

No matter how Brandon or Loren resents the stubbornness of the church, they have to admit that these "piety believers" are indeed very good soldiers, and they can even abandon everything just to dedicate their lives to the Holy Cross. Legion in the Jieshan Fortress, execute any command that seems almost mortal.

For them, everything in Human World is nothing but the Holy Cross’s test of themselves. Death is the real beginning of life. The more tragic and tragic sacrifices, the more they can prove their devotion to the Holy Cross. Piety.

Such thoughts and motivations are simply too pale and powerless to describe them as "fanatic".

For Loren, the only advantage of doing this is to keep the church's army away from Brandon's surroundings temporarily, and to prevent the church Knight Nazer from interfering with his actions.

And the self-discipline and piety of these fanatics can also allow them to perform search tasks without reservation and find clues for themselves; without worrying that they will be perfunctory or even cheating themselves and cloth Langdon.

At the same time, one hundred and fifty Legion soldiers in the ruins of the sentry tower also launched a search around, gradually clearing the broken walls left by the bloody battle, and at a certain night watchman Under his command, he carefully looked for any possible clues.

To the Legion soldiers, Edward claimed to "investigate the truth about the complete destruction of the sentry tower", but what he really was looking for was proof that Farnesis' guard Knight had been here.

No matter what he came to the north for, the guard Knight, who has the ability to slaughter the entire Hundred Men Squad, is too dangerous.

More importantly, Edward couldn't believe that Farnesis bishop might actually be alive!

He remembers very clearly that he personally pierced Farnesis's heart and head, and cut his throat. No matter how hard the fortune-telling is, he must die;

but the problem It is that all kinds of intelligence at the moment are proving that he is very likely not dead.

The traces of leaving with the guard Knight in Eboden; then the "mysterious person" who secretly protected Knight, the guard who was seriously injured, and even took him away, as well as the campfire where the ruins of the sentry tower were still cold ……

A bishop of Holy Cross Church, even more how is a fugitive bishop, will not affect the night watchman much; but the problem is that the other party has already discovered himself, and it is likely to be In the hands of the Lini family, they have the information before and after the heavy damage to the Eboden Night Watch!

Rut Infinite still doesn’t know anything about it, but once the Night Watch organization suffers a loss, Edward himself, plus Willa and Peter, the only remaining Egyptians Boden's night watchman will certainly not have any endings related to the word "good".

Route Infinite’s wicked name is based on numerous corpses!

……………………………………………………………………

The clearing of the ruins of the sentry tower, after the start of the search operation , Here became a place for temporary placement of corpses; busy guards began to clean up the traces of the surrounding battle, and all the bones that could be found were piled around the temporary wooden racks and open spaces.

This is an extremely difficult job.

Not only the lack of manpower and resources, the bones of the overwhelming majority have already been completely frozen in blizzards and severe cold. These bones were restored to their original state.

All they can do is to temporarily place these dead robes here, waiting for the winter to pass, and the reinforcements of the fortress can come and bring their cremated ashes back to the south.

The expressionless night watchman stood in the center of the open space, commanding and coordinating the surrounding soldiers with simple and powerful commands one after another, searching for a piece of corpse and not even a broken arrow. Pass; the entire search work is constantly underway in an orderly and tidy atmosphere.

The black hair wizard who stood behind him was slightly nodded, and I have to admit that Edward was able to become Captain Captain for a reason—such an efficiency could be replaced by impossible.

Eboden’s night watchman trio, Peter Fasa is the logistics and leader, Vera is the assassin and the vanguard, and the indifferent Edward is the best performer;

The character of doing his duty and trying not to cause trouble also allows him to have a high efficiency that ordinary people can't match.

"What's new?" Loren stood beside him, looking at the pile of cold bones indifferently.

The indifferent night watchman glanced at him with a meaningful look:

"Basically you guessed it."

"Basically?"

"Yes, as you said, the soldiers in the sentry tower did not expect an enemy attack at all. After a hastily confrontation, the gate was breached within a quarter of an hour; then they fell into Desperate, it was just a dying struggle from beginning to end. I think they probably knew this by themselves, so they didn’t send out Rangers."

"Because they know that even if they send out, there will be no ending. Any changes." Loren calmly opened the mouth and said: "For...some reason we may not know."

"As for why the fire beacon was not lit, it is probably because the day was extremely The severe snowstorm weather-the wounds of the corpses were frozen, which proved that the snowstorm must be so severe that night that the firewood was soaked; it was impossible to dry them in a panic."

Nodded, Edward continued to open the mouth and said: "Then...about the guardian Knight, we found a lot of clues in the inner fort of the guard tower."

"He stayed here for at least five years. Around the sky, and also tried to collect a lot of reserves; and you guessed it, definitely not one but two people, and they just left the day before us."

"Know that they are going Where is it?"

"I'm sorry, no." Edward shook his head: "Even if there were any traces, it would have been swallowed by a blizzard."

"Guard Knight and the mysterious person suspected of being'Farnesis' arrived at the fortress of Broken Boundary Mountain almost at the same time as us, and left before us and had been here-to be more precise, they almost always took us one step ahead of us."

"No, it's not like that." Loren gave Edward a meaningful look.

"What do you mean?"

"We can only prove that they have come, but we can't prove that they have left." Loren narrowed his eyes slightly: "No matter what they experienced What, the strength of this guard Knight has grown to a level that can be called terrifying."

"I fought him once in the warehouse in Forge Town. Although it was my carelessness at the time, he did. I walked quietly behind me, and even waited until the sword fell on my shoulder before I realized that I was being watched."

"When he was in Lothair, he absolutely did Less than this."

"About this...you may not know much about Church Knight." Edward frowned: "All true pious church Knights will make a vow, and these'vows' are themselves They have a powerful force that allows them to use the "Divine Vestige of the Holy Cross". The Chief Knight Lord Naze is one of them, and he even..."

"No, it's not that powerful— -Although the power of that'vow' is also amazing." Loren waved his hand: "This matter is put on hold, but you haven't answered my question."

"What's the problem?"

"You said...'Basically' I guessed it, what do you mean?"

Edward slowly turned around, nodded after making sure that no one around was looking at him. , Pointed to the pile of bones next to him: "Have you counted how many corpses are there?"

"What's wrong?"

"According to the fortress, at that time, There are at least nearly two hundred Legion soldiers, but we have only found them in their early 100s."

Loren's eyes froze, he knew what Edward was about to say.

Either the guards did not search well, or missed something; or...

This is not the real location where the search team first attacked!
