Working Prophet.

The war with the coalition forces has just ended, but another war has quietly begun.

It was a war between the Hughes of the Shuangxiu Church and the god of death.

Before the war started, Li Yu asked the Bureau of Truth to organize the carpenters on the territory of the religious order to produce [-] stretchers, and then obtained a batch of high-concentration alcohol through repeated distillation.

But the quantity is not too much, because the wine is not easy to buy, especially after Solomon arrived at the Cape of Plenty, the trade route between the Western Territory and the Golden Valley was basically cut off.

If you brew it yourself, firstly, it will take time, and secondly, it is indeed a bit of a waste of food, so the final distilled alcohol is less than [-] barrels, which is not enough.

Fortunately, the "Holy Water" of the Shuangxiu Church has already been mass-produced, and this is Li Yu's greatest reliance.

…………

Arnott is a mercenary who was active in the Hongyuan area before. It is said that his ancestors still have some noble blood, but the family has long since declined. Apart from him, there are only two younger sisters and one younger brother left.

One of the younger sisters is working as a maid for a baron, and can provide a little subsidy for the family. The remaining younger sister and younger brother are too young, so the burden of making money falls on Arnott's head.

He heard people say that those Yi clansmen were preparing to attack the western border and were recruiting manpower, which seemed to many people a sure thing.

Because this time Solomon and his Wing Clan warriors came out almost in full force, bringing two dragons, and also planned to gather another [-] allied troops to launch an attack from land.

Coupled with the fact that the Figueirola family, who are the masters of the Western Region, had already surrendered in advance, this battle was sure to win no matter what, and the process should be very easy.

Therefore, Arnott was also a little tempted. After thinking about it for a night, he finally decided to join the army of the baron that his sister served.

And this has always been a tradition on the continent of Bratis, because the cost of maintaining a professional army is too high.

The approach adopted by most noble lords is to train a small number of guards and provide certain military training to the peasants on the territory.

Once a war breaks out, they can quickly pull up an army composed of a small number of elites and a large number of militias. In addition, wealthy families will recruit some mercenaries or mercenaries.

This time, Solomon's order was issued more urgently, and there were so many requests, so most of the nobles had to choose to spend money to recruit additional people.

Arnott has the identity of a mercenary, and with the help of his sister, he easily got a spot. Before he set off, he signed a contract with the baron. After the war, no matter whether he wins or loses, he will be rewarded with two golden lions.

Moreover, this is only the most basic employment fee. During the war, they still have the opportunity to obtain trophies. According to the contract, most of the high-value trophies such as jewels and jewelry will belong to the baron, but there are also some trophies that they can keep for themselves.

For example, the armor and weapons of the enemies killed by them, etc. In addition, the old mercenary also told Arnott not to take the constraints in the contract too seriously. If you really encounter valuable things, as long as there is no one else I found out, just put it in my arms.

It was impossible for the nobles to search them one by one.

Many mercenaries made a lot of money by being hired to participate in the war before, and some people didn't even have to worry about the rest of their lives. Arnott's blood boiled when he heard that.

However, after arriving in the Western Territory, things were not as rosy as Arnott imagined.

Although the army did not encounter much resistance as they expected, there were many sporadic attacks.

Those noble lords didn't want their own guards to be injured, so they placed these mercenaries and militiamen on the periphery of the team.

Especially those hired people who were thrown out of the team, once they were attacked, they would be the first to be unlucky.

And if they want to camp, their camp is also the outermost.Arnott still remembered that he didn't fall asleep at all on the first night, and immediately opened his eyes and grabbed the weapon at the slightest sign of trouble.

They are always the first to go when they encounter hard bones that are not easy to chew, but when it comes to looting, they can only stay outside the city and take charge of vigilance.

All the way to Yanxue City, Arnott just picked up a piece of cotton armor that was not very valuable. The old mercenary who came with him was slightly better than him. When he went out to patrol, he went to a nearby village to pick up two chickens. Plus some change.

Arnott was about to express his envy, but he saw the blood stains on the cuffs of the old mercenary, and couldn't help but startled, the latter looked indifferent.

"That man tried to stab me in the back with a pitchfork while I was catching chickens, and I chopped off my head, but his wife is nice, let's have chicken together tonight."

Arnott was silent for a while. He has actually encountered many such things along the way, not just their mercenaries, those militiamen, and even the guards of major families. Many military discipline is not very good, burning, killing and looting It's all normal.

This is war, and civilians are always the worst. Of course, the nobles on the losing side are not much better. For example, Frederickson of Pine Rock Castle, his whole family was burned to death by the flames of the dragon.

After watching too much, Arnott also gradually became numb. Now he doesn't expect to make a lot of money from this war, but hopes to end it as soon as possible and receive the reward promised by the baron.

And the final battle is coming soon.

To be honest, Arnott actually admired the group of rebels on the opposite side, especially the female lord named Ilea, who refused to surrender under such a disparity in strength, and supported it until the last moment.

Sadly, this is all coming to an end soon.

It all ended very quickly indeed.

Arnott didn't even quite understand what happened. Not long after the battle, he was stabbed in the thigh by a pikeman, although the pikeman was soon smashed in the head by a dwarf.

But Arnott's thigh had been pierced, and he only felt a sharp pain, and he could hardly move his feet anymore, which is very fatal on the battlefield.

Arnott wanted to retreat, but he saw those war supervisors watching from a distance, and then he saw a line of blood not far away.

The people standing there before disappeared in the blink of an eye, and there was an extra corpse on the ground.

Before he could figure out what it was, he was shot in the chest by an arrow, and then he was hit by several arrows in a row, and fell to the ground.

Fortunately, he also wore an old chain mail under the cotton clips. This family chain mail saved his life. When Arnott opened his eyes again, he found that the war was over.

It's just that they became the loser.Arnott thought hard and couldn't figure out how they lost.

How is this possible?The difference in strength between the two sides is so large, and they still have the Yi tribe to help them, and I heard that the morale of the other side is very low, no matter how they think, they should not lose.

But Arnott can't take care of this matter now, the wound on his thigh is still bleeding, and although the old chain mail saved his life and prevented him from being fatally wounded, there is still an arrow The arrow pierced his left rib.
