Act 28 Expansion(9)

"They retreated."

Yuta sat opposite Antitina with her face covered in blood. She gasped and looked at the other person - but the fair face of the noble daughter was only stained with a few drops of blood, and her black eyes still had the traces of the previous He was still frightened by the battle, but now he had forced himself to calm down.

The girl nodded.

The silence technique was not as effective as they thought. They thought it was a panacea, but in the end they found that the effect was extremely limited. Because the battle has already entered a fever pitch when the spell is cast - command and tactics have become secondary factors - the cavemen are almost simply rushing forward, relying on the impact force rushing up the wall to try to open a hole in the human defense line.

When they discovered this, the mercenaries almost missed the best opportunity. If Fern hadn't led his men to push forward at the most critical moment, using a weak advantage to force the opponent off the wall, the consequences would have been disastrous.

The most violent attack was repulsed.

The cavemen who suffered heavy losses finally realized that the casualties were unbearable, so they retreated, but the previous danger left everyone with lingering fears.

The battlefield became deserted, leaving only the heavy breathing of the mercenaries lying behind the wooden wall. No one was counting casualties because it was unnecessary at the moment, and everyone knew that if something miraculous didn't happen before the next attack was launched, there was little hope.

"They'll come back again," said Vern, sitting on the other side, his whole body aching. However, he looked up at the moon in the sky and said calmly: "The next attack will be before early morning at the latest. It depends on the arrival time of the second group of cavemen."

"What should we do?" Clenthia asked.

Everyone fell silent.

Even the most determined Antitina could no longer say she was 100% sure after experiencing the scene between life and death. It was just the first time she thought about whether she would really die here if the lord didn't come again.

But then I thought about it, if it weren't for Brando, she might have died in the dark and cold shabby room in Prague at any time. Thinking of this, the noble daughter calmed down again.

"When mercenaries act, they do their best and obey fate," Fern grinned. "We have seen a lot of life and death. As for when they attack again, we will open the door and break out separately. As for whether we live or die, it depends. Lord Martha, are you willing to take care of all of us here——"

Kerenthia was slightly startled, but a self-deprecating smile appeared on her face. He shook his head and looked back,

Looking at the noble girl, he said: "In this case, Miss Antitina, we have an explanation to your lord, right?"

Antitina was stunned and nodded: "Thank you everyone."

"No need to thank you." Yuta interrupted her: "We are only willing to believe that guy once. But don't worry, even if he doesn't come, I won't leave you two behind."

Roman was sitting opposite, with her hands on her knees, her dark brown eyes widened, and she said seriously: "Thank you, you are such a good person." But she smiled slightly and replied: "But Brando will definitely come. , he never talks big – if he says he can do it, then he can definitely do it.”

"You believe him, little girl." Jutta paid attention to this businesswoman for the first time.

"Actually," Antitina hesitated: "I am also willing to believe what the lord says -"

"It seems that our lord is so charming that he can charm two beautiful ladies." A smile appeared on Fern's dark face, and he joked in a rare way: "If I had this ability, I wouldn't be able to. It’s a death without regrets.”

After hearing his words, Kerenthia snorted disdainfully. This silver-haired and handsome middle-aged man has always regarded himself as a romantic in the mercenary world. He couldn't help but think that if this unattractive guy was in this situation, then all the men in the world would kill him.

Antitina lowered her head slightly, and remained silent in response to such vulgar ridicule with the shyness of a wealthy lady; but Roman raised her little eyebrows, blushed and waved her hands: "Wrong, wrong , I don’t believe Brando for this reason!”

"What's the reason?" Yuta couldn't help but asked strangely.

This time even Antitina calmly joined the audience, although she followed Brando earlier. But the noble daughter understood that long before she met Brando, the business lady and more others had had many stories with the young lord.

She had asked for stories about the past of this small group, but the most they could get was the story of Leto, the copper dragon. In fact, she wanted to know more than once what happened before Lidenburg, at the very beginning of Madara's invasion.

With a woman's keen intuition, this aristocratic girl felt that there must be more stories here, but just like the life experiences of Roman and Brando, everything is an unsolvable mystery.

All she knew was that there was another important woman in the group. From Brando's mouth, she knew that the girl was called Freya, and she was far away from their group at the moment. As for who she was and what she was doing now, Brando had never said anything, and she didn't know where to start. Asked.

"You don't understand," the businesswoman unconsciously showed a slightly proud and mysterious smile at the corner of her mouth. Her eyes were bright: "When Brando took me to escape from Butchi, I Seeing Brando's eyes, you know that Brando has become a real man——"

"Because my aunt often told me that a real man is willing to take responsibility for his promises, so little Roman must find a man willing to protect her." Roman said slowly while rubbing his hands. replied.

"Is it because of this?" Yuta was a little surprised.

Fern listened without saying a word, just corresponding with what the young lord did. Only Kerenthia hissed disdainfully: "In all the areas I have been to, I have never seen that aristocratic gentleman who can be called a man. In fact, if there is a man among those guys, I will do it." Thumbs up—"

His words gained a lot of recognition from the surrounding mercenaries, but Antitina did not refute. She just silently remembered the word Buchi mentioned by Roman.

She raised her head and was about to say something, but at this moment, a mercenary hurried over from the wooden wall on the other side interrupted the conversation of several people. The visitor brought bad news:

"Several captains, there seems to be movement in the forest. The scouts said that the cavemen seem to be preparing to attack again."

Everyone was surprised, so fast? The previously harmonious atmosphere suddenly disappeared without a trace. The scene fell silent, the mercenaries looked at each other, and a dark cloud silently hung over everyone present.

Antitina once told them to wait for news of the young lord's victory. However, at this moment, the dark clouds seemed to cover the moonlight, and there was no trace of hope in the darkness.

At this moment, even the noble daughter herself felt a little suffocated.

…

But in the valley, the changes on the battlefield were beyond all the cavemen's expectations.

The metal pony jumped lightly across the center of the battlefield, and when the silver hooves touched the ground, Akane was the first to jump off the horse. She landed lightly next to Tajib, and at the same time turned around, her amber pupils reflected that the caveman was turning around on the battlefield and rushing towards this direction.

The angels summoned by Brando stopped the cavemen who were rushing forward, and those who dared to get close were stabbed to the ground by their swords.

Akane frowned, instinctively feeling that time was running out. She immediately put the halberd in her hand back, and put it on the neck of the caveman leader who was lying on the ground with a soft click——

"Make them surrender."

"I... am dead," Tajib replied in halting Cruz language: "You... won't survive either."

This guy's cunningness was beyond the girl's expectation. She was stunned for a moment and then snorted coldly, pretending to be calm and replied: "Stop being so smart! Don't forget, we have Pegasus," she let the gun blade stick to her. He became a little more nervous and said, "I'll give you another chance to make them stop attacking!"

Tajib hesitated in his heart. Of course he was afraid of death, but things were obviously not that simple, so he decided to take a gamble: "In that case, please arrange for me to meet Lord Shia -"

Shia is the god in charge of the earth in caveman mythology. It is said that it is a huge lizard living in the elemental plane of earth. However, in Between Amber, players have already proven that it is just a mythical dragon-like creature and has nothing to do with gods or anything.

"Don't think that I dare not kill you!" Qian was furious in her heart and couldn't help but kick it. The force of this kick was so heavy that it almost rolled to the ground several times.

But this kick confirmed Tajib's guess. It was not afraid. On the contrary, it patted the dust on its body and got up to take a rest and replied: "I think... you can run away, but you stay in the forest." My companion... I’m afraid it may not be safe?”

"You--" Qian choked. She didn't expect that this shrewd caveman guessed what they were thinking as soon as he opened his mouth. But of course she couldn't admit it, and there was nothing she could do about it for the moment.

"Which force do you belong to?" Brando took over. He looked at each other condescendingly on the horse, "Toland City or Dragon Tongue City?"

His words had an immediate effect, and Tajib closed his mouth carefully. Although he had no eyes, the caveman subconsciously raised his head and faced the young lord. If the expression on his face could be described, it must be It's like he's afraid of a poisonous snake.

Xuland City and Dragon Tongue City were not well-known underground in Qogendigang, but they were the sworn enemies of the dungeon lord that Tajib once belonged to. This showed that this young man was familiar with the underground world. Tajib suddenly realized that his advantage had disappeared, as if a vague sense of superiority had been evacuated from his body.

It had to re-examine these two humans that it had always looked down on in the past, and for the first time it felt that the other person was on an equal footing with itself. But where did the other party come from? Why are Xu Lande and Dragon Tongue City mentioned? What relationship do they have with their lord's mortal enemy?

However, since it left the underground world, it has nothing to do with the original lord. In the underground world of Qiao Gendigang, it is very common to change households. It can't think of any reason for the other party to chase after it. (To be continued. If you want to know what happened, please log in. There are more chapters.
