best villain

It was a room like an office.

There was an iron cabinet full of documents on the wall, and a man was sitting at a desk near the window.

The man looked about 50 years old, his hair was already mottled and gray, he was wearing a plain shirt and suit pants, and he was concentrating on the documents in front of him.

His identity is unusual.

In fact, he was the highest ranking person in the building.

Not only that, but he is also a magician.

One of the 24 official members of the [Dragon Knights] belonging to the Romanian association group.

Since ancient times, there have been many magicians in the world.

There are vile tricksters and there are great teachers.A 'knight' who learns sword skills and magic.Among them, the title of Great Knight can only be obtained by very few warriors.The [Dragon Knights] used to obtain this title as a condition for joining the group, that is to say, to become a full-fledged member, without exception, they were all strong at the rank of 'Great Knight'.

This can be said to be a very terrifying force,

But as the times changed, the [Dragon Knights] was expelled by other growing and emerging association groups.

Power becomes worse day by day.

Then, because of the failure of an attack and killing operation, revenge was ushered in.

——If this continues, it will perish.

- You have to think of a way.

Then someone thought, why not go back to Romania.It was their former homeland, and it was favorable in every way.

It doesn't matter if some people don't welcome them, there is no other choice now.

The behemoth in the European magic circle - [Bronze Black Cross] obviously did not expect them to run away neatly, and it was too late to intercept and pursue them when they realized it.

Under the interference of Romania's native forces, the struggle between the two sides fell into a stalemate.

Although the local forces do not welcome the return of the [Dragon Knights], they do not want to see Italian magicians running wild on their territory.

In this way, [Dragon Knights] will have plenty of time to reorganize its troops.

It doesn't matter if it's a fight or guerrilla tactics.

For them, it is beneficial and harmless.

As for local forces.Honestly they don't care.Although there are many emerging associations, they are not as important as some small but long-established associations. In the past years, they have dealt with each other quite a lot.There are also associations that have established friendly relations.

With a little help from allies, not to mention repelling the [Bronze Black Cross], you can even regain a foothold in Romania in one go.

Maybe...just maybe.

——[Dragon Knights] can reproduce the glorious moments of the past.

However, the white-haired man's imagination was quickly interrupted.On the other side of the office desk and chair where he was sitting, next to the transparent window covered with louver, the aluminum door that was being closed was violently pulled open.

"Knight Commander, something has happened!"

Just like the momentum of opening the door just now, the uninvited guest rushed in with a turbulent momentum, and at the same time roared with an attitude that could not hide his anxiety.

Facing the roar of the visitor, the white-haired man at the desk—Garner did not show any surprise because of this.As if he had already expected what would happen today, he just put down the business in his hands in a leisurely manner.

The power has just returned to Romania, and troubles are as numerous as snowflakes. He has not slept well for several days.

That being said, he is well aware of the situation today.So no matter how his subordinates yelled 'something happened', he would not be moved by it.

"Break in without knocking, and yell without hesitation. Don't forget that this is just a dilapidated office building with poor sound insulation, and we are just employees and the president of a small business."

"Knight Commander, a team we sent out is missing."

The visitor was a middle-aged man who appeared to be over forty years old.He was wearing a slightly wrinkled dark blue shirt and faded ecru suit pants, with messy hair.And the stubble on the face that looks like it hasn't been shaved or cleaned up for several days, and the whole body gives people an established impression of being unkempt.

As Garner said, they did a lot of work to keep a low profile.

"You mean the squad of knights who went to Constanta for reconnaissance?"

"Yes."

Confirming that the judgment was correct, Garner instantly realized the seriousness of the matter.

Constanta is one of the 41 counties in Romania, which is equivalent to most of the provinces in China.Its capital, Constanta, is a coastal city and port on the Black Sea.It is an important gateway to all continents and one of the national shipbuilding centers, known as the 'Pearl of the Black Sea'.More than half of Romania's imports and exports pass through this port.

Constanta is the gateway to the sea of ​​Romania.

It is not an exaggeration to be listed as a key prevention area, because [Bronze Black Cross] is likely to go by sea.

A small but experienced knight squad was specially sent to prevent the enemy from secretly sneaking in and waiting for an opportunity to attack.

"Is there no survivor?" Garner was silent for a while, then raised his head and asked.

"I have lost contact with you since the early hours of this morning, and there is no news so far. Because our manpower is limited. I dare not act rashly, so I came here to report to you." The sloppy man shook his head and said.

"...Contact other associations and ask them to send support. Seeing the enemy running to hide under the nose, no one will be able to sit still."

"learn."

The sloppy man obeyed the order and ran out of the office immediately.

It can be said that Garner really hopes that he can change this rush of action, but it seems impossible in a short time.

"[Bronze Black Cross]...don't let me know who did it..."

Garner muttered to himself, clutching the document involuntarily.

*****************

This is a season that has nothing to do with the cold anyway.Especially in the coastal city of Constanta, where you can only enjoy the warm and humid sea breeze, Ling Yi is the only person who feels the urge to sneeze.

"—What about the plane ride that you agreed to take?"

Ling Yi muttered with some remorse, and tidied up the messy hair that had been tossed and turned over and over due to insomnia.At this time, he was completely dressed like a local teenager, with white cloth trousers rolled up, blue and white striped short sleeves, and a 1.5-meter-long box on his back, like a wandering singer.But it is not a piano case, more like a bat.

"Stop complaining, or do you also want to become a fireball falling from the sky?" It was a witch named Diana Milito who spoke in distress of "don't cause me trouble again".A powerful faction who was born as a descendant of a Naples witch.

"Are those people really knights? I think they look like terrorists." Ling Yi jokingly picked up the newspapers that fell under his feet.The headline written in large characters on it is "Several flights to Bregast yesterday were unfortunately crashed by stray bullets". The following uses a considerable amount of space to describe what happened, the casualties, the official statement of the Romanian government on the incident, etc.. .

"Terrorists will not shoot down all the planes bound for Bregast in one day. Anyway, this is undoubtedly a disaster." Diana's childlike face whose age cannot be distinguished Covered with a layer of shadow.

"Just after South America withdrew to Romania and then deliberately spread the information that 'most of the members are hiding in the Romanian capital Bregas', and then shot down all the planes flying to Bregas, even if it was [Dragon Knights] Don't dare to be so arrogant." Ling Yi squeezed his chin, leaning on the handrail on the side of the road thoughtfully, even though there is a vast sea behind him, and he would fall if he was not careful, his figure was as stable as an old man's. Tree.

"Do you also think it was a frame-up?"

"If I were the commander of the [Dragon Knights], then I would not provoke the [Bronze Black Cross] further until there is no absolute chance of winning. As far as the current situation is concerned, the headquarters is only concerned about the loss, so it is not serious. Seriously, Milan One of the two heroes is not a mere remnant of the [Dragon Knights] that can resist it."

Ignoring Diana's surprise, Ling Yi paused and continued talking to himself:

"So. If there is an opportunity to 'reduce losses and be sure to annihilate the remnants of the enemy', then the magicians of [Bronze Black Cross] will probably fly directly to Bregast——I think spreading false information That's roughly what people think."

"That's how it is. It is determined that most of the troops of [Bronze Black Cross] will be sent to Bregast by air within a day, so some people intend to cause [Bronze Black Cross] to suffer heavy losses at one time, making it impossible to continue to attack [Dragon [Knight Order]. Even if this move angered the government or other associations, it was [Dragon Knight Order] and not some people who were the first to suspect it.”

Diana couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

"I kind of can't believe you're only 16."

"To be honest, I am indeed more than sixteen this year."

"Forgot. You're 17."

Seeing Diana's dazed expression, the corner of Ling Yi's mouth twitched, but he still held back his laughter.

Seventeen?He himself can't count how many years have passed.

In your 20s or 30s?

Forget it, anyway, the degree of aging has been reduced to the extreme, and there will be no wrinkles in 100 years.

"Speaking of which, look at your appearance. Does it mean that the headquarters has expected it?"

"Of course, the headquarters will not underestimate the enemy when facing a weaker opponent. Instead, they will be more cautious. Just because the opponent is too weak, they must win beautifully no matter what. This is the [Bronze Black Cross] ]’s tolerance. What’s more, divination to predict the battle situation before the battle—this behavior has been popular since the First World War.”

"In other words, are the thousands of people who died this time all civilians? It's really pitiful."

"That's why I said it was a disaster."

Diana sighed, although I don't know her age, but from her words and deeds, it can be seen that it is definitely not as simple as twenty or thirty.With her like this, even if her opponent is an official member of the Dragon Knights, there is no reason why she cannot win.

Originally, she was stationed in Naples, but she was somehow summoned by the headquarters some time ago.

Although her mission was to take care of the abnormal boy in front of her, she couldn't help feeling angry when she heard that there was such a large-scale air crash.

"Aha, it seems that this 'war' must be ended quickly."

An incomprehensible smile appeared on the boy's face.

The unrealistic words of 'quickly end the war' came out of his mouth.

If she had just arrived in Constanta, Diana would definitely have sneered, but after what happened in the early morning, not only could she not laugh, she also felt a sense of uneasiness from his words, as if grinning at the trembling prey. An alien with a sneer.

Yes, not even beasts, for beasts have no intelligence.

Diana seemed to see that scene again.

Usually, what is left behind from every battle is often ruins, and it is difficult to find any living objects on the dead land, and sometimes there are even blood flowers floating in the wind.

And standing in the middle of the ruins was a gloomy figure.

Surroundings were the dilapidated roads and streets, as well as dozens of dead people who fell to the ground.

The only thing that is certain is that there are only two living organisms still alive.

One is Diana herself, and the other is the gray figure.

It was the first time she had witnessed that kind of swordplay.

——At the same time, for the first time, I developed a fear of swordsmanship.

When the sword skimmed through the air, there would be a sharp piercing sound.

However, the sword that the man swung did not hear a similar sound, just like a silent movie, the direct purpose of each movement is to send the blade into the fatal part of the enemy.

The enemies fell one by one.

Yes, I just recited half of the words...

Yes, just raised the steel sword above the head...

Yes, just took out the communicator...

Immediately afterwards, the gray figure shuttled between the enemy shadows like lightning.

In less than a moment, the battle was over.

This is a devastating battle.

The reason why the surroundings were so horribly destroyed was all due to those guys who lost their minds and cast spells indiscriminately.

On the contrary, that figure just moved its hands.

"What's wrong Diana?"

The boy in front of him asked cheerfully.

That's right, it's as easy and freehand as it is now.

"It's nothing, let's hurry to the next mission location."

"Actually, it's okay to let me act alone."

"That can't be done, you are the 'wealth' of the association, and every talent is a precious wealth. My task is to take care of you."

"It's a pity. If I still wanted to be alone, it would be more convenient to break into the enemy's base camp and eliminate the main combat forces one by one."

"It seems that what is imminent now is to raise your crisis awareness!"

"My credo is 'if you can't win, you can win in another way'. In this way, you will neither lose nor die, and you will always be on the way to one victory after another....Accidents are boring. If you can It's better to have some fun."

"..."

Diana suddenly had a premonition that this young man might inherit the position of Templar from [Bronze Black Cross] in the future.

Holding the sword of 'The Inscription of Victory'.

Leading to a brilliant future.

——Isn’t Paul Brauntree exactly like that?
