Lord Highlander

  Chapter 114 113. Unified caliber

   This battle was a complete accident to the soldiers of the second team.

At noon, the scorching sun was blazing all places except the shade of the trees. The second team came to this valley completely down the river. With the coolness of the valley stream, Suldak chose the rocky river beach, where it is easier to hide. , the soldiers gathered here to start preparing lunch.

  Responding to Red Sock's strong request, Suerdak found a dried meat merchant outside the camp and bought a dozen boxes of "a bit expensive" luncheon meat from him.

This stuff is actually much more expensive than those jerky. In fact, Suerdak has always thought that beef jerky is also very good. It is not only chewy, but also adds a certain amount of salt to the body. The only thing is that it is easy to eat salty. For luncheon meat Surdak was not interested in such extravagant things.

Now the soldiers of the second team are well-off, and they don't care about spending a few more silver coins, so luncheon meat can also be bought back as rations for marching in the field. I bought a large bundle of vermicelli there. It is said that this thing is more popular than luncheon meat in the imperial capital, and the two things are cooked together, and the taste is very good.

  By the river beach, a large pot of stewed luncheon meat and vermicelli was cooking. Before the soldiers of the second team cooked the vermicelli, the luncheon meat had already been stewed to pieces.

  Red Socks was eating scones while complaining to the side: It would be better to add some bell peppers and onions to stew together, and it would be more flavorful than these slippery vermicelli.

Before everyone started to enjoy this lunch, they saw a movement on the grassy **** of the hill beside them. The second team was immediately on alert, and then saw an imperial infantry soldier sliding down from the top of the slope. This landing posture is really a bit dumbfounding.

Then another evil spirit emerged from the top of the slope. Suldak looked at Augustus suspiciously. When he was camping here, he had asked this guy to go up to check it. There was no battlefield nearby. Yes, so where did these two come from?

In fact, Augustus was also a little panicked. When he climbed to the high hill to investigate, the opposite mountain forest was obviously silent, and there was no ambush and fighting scene. Why did an infantry soldier appear just after he ran down? Come…

Seeing the evil spirit chasing the human warrior, of course there was nothing to say. The second team lay in ambush, only waiting for the evil spirit to enter the ambush circle by the river beach, and prepared to kill it directly, but they did not expect that the imperial The infantry soldiers slowed down on the grassy slope, and were almost caught by the evil spirits.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Red Sock quickly grabbed the alloy bow beside him and jumped onto a boulder, aimed at the evil spirit and shot an arrow. Perhaps because of the explosion of Red Sock's character, the arrow hit the evil spirit's forehead and successfully attracted the evil spirit. At the attention of the evil ghost, the evil ghost rushed towards the red socks like a madman, and only then did the scene just now happen.

  …

  Suldak didn't expect to save Baron Laurent Goss by chance. Seeing that Baron Laurent Goss didn't have any companions around him, he thought he was separated from his temporary warrior team.

Laurent Goss rested on the grass for a while, and his body almost recovered. Seeing that Laurent Goss was fine, he prepared to help him find his warrior team. Laurent Goss was a little embarrassed and suggested to Surdak whether he could be escorted to the expeditionary army camp. He decided to withdraw from the knight exam for hunting evil spirits...

  Suldak heard what Laurent Goss said, and he somewhat understood what the young noble had just encountered.

However, he has no way to **** Laurent Goss back to the expeditionary army camp at this time. After all, there is still a Death Squad. At least two and a half days will be spent around the battlefield.

Fortunately, this is the edge of the Moyunling battlefield. It is not difficult to find the battle group of the expeditionary army, and there is also a logistics team in the main theater. As long as you find those people in the logistics department, let them It may be difficult to transport a civilian infantry fighter back to the camp, but they dare not refuse to help a nobleman, even a small third baron.

  In fact, apart from being a little embarrassed, Laurent Goss did not suffer multiple injuries on his body, but his handsome face was covered with scars cut by vines and grass leaves.

  The equipment on his body was seriously damaged. Not only were all his weapons lost, but his leather armor was also damaged in many places. Although it could be repaired, it was of little value.

Along the way, Laurent Goss was in a low mood, and the soldiers of the second team didn't follow behind him wantonly talking and laughing. Everyone still took good care of the young baron's emotions, and they also understood that he was full of emotions at this time. frustration.

  The failure of Laurent Goss also made the soldiers of the second team realize a problem, that is, in the eyes of outsiders, the hunting of evil spirits, which everyone has become accustomed to, is actually somewhat unusual in the eyes of outsiders.

  The temporary squad of elite veterans organized by Baron Laurent Goss failed in the face of the evil spirits, indicating that the elite group of human infantry soldiers still had no certainty of victory when they encountered the evil spirits.

  The second team has repeatedly killed evil spirits, which will confuse some interested people.

   The secret of the sacrificial ceremony cannot be revealed casually, so how to defeat these evil spirits always needs a suitable reason.

The soldiers of the small team finally met a group of logistics soldiers on a mountain road, and successfully handed over Baron Laurent Goss, asking him to follow the soldiers of the logistics department back to the camp of the expeditionary army. The second team then plunged into the dense forest .

  After sending Laurent Goss away, the soldiers of the squad sat together to discuss this matter.

  Augustus leaned against a big tree and said:

"I heard that there used to be mages from the Academy of Magic fighting with the army. Not all of those mages were good at releasing fireballs. Some mages would temporarily bless the soldiers with some power like Xiao Dak, but the effect seemed to be It didn't last long, but those master magicians wouldn't pay such a high price for their magic."

  Seeing Suldak bowed his head in silence, the bearded Kagel went on to say:

"I think... since these are all methods of the great wizard Ino Yatila, then little Dak should also be regarded as a wizard! Although the price for obtaining this kind of power is a bit high, what we have gained is far more than what we paid. The price is much higher, and this can be regarded as what Little Duck brought to us!"

  Thinking of the black magic crystals on those evil spirits, Red Sox was so excited that he wanted to yell, his eyes became a little brighter, and he said to the other team soldiers:

   "No matter what, we must not tell this secret..."

  The other fighters of the second team got so many benefits, of course they didn't want to tell this secret, and they all echoed: "Yes, you can't say it!"

  The bearded Cagle thought for a while, and then said: "Since Laurent Goss is out, as long as he can defeat the Death Squad, he will win the reserve knight assessment."

  Augustus scratched his head and said: "Then we must find some suitable reasons, such as how we can defeat the evil spirits!"

"Magic scrolls..." Suldak said at this time: "Yes! Let's say we used magical magic scrolls. As for how these magic scrolls came from, of course they were bought from magic grocery stores. We killed them. Evil ghost, it is not unimaginable to buy some magic scrolls with some spare money..."

   Soon the soldiers of the second team unified their minds and moved towards another planned ambush point. They needed to continue searching for the ghost patrol team in the dense forest...
