Edge of the Apocalypse

Four Hundred and Fortieth Chapters Verbal Sword

In this land boundary of the Emerald Mountains, there is no obvious boundary mark like the Sumara River. The two territories of the Viscounty and the Earl are intertwined here. Man recognizes the boundary between two territories. Usually, for the hunters who live in the nearby forests, the boundaries seem blurred in their hearts. Hunters can freely enter and exit different territories, as long as they don't go too deep.

Today, however, this blurred line has become extremely clear. Count Aubain's army camp was far away from the boundary line, leaving no opportunity for Daniel to take advantage of it. Therefore, when the viscount's army was four or five hundred meters away from the boundary line, they all stopped. Oban raised his eyes and saw that Daniel had not brought all the troops. Behind this powerful viscount are red and silver knights. They all wear scarlet cloaks and are covered from head to toe in thick armor. Even the harness of the war horse has elegant patterns, which look very gorgeous.

Those knights are Daniel's elite troops, and the sacred unicorn is well known even in Oban's territory. There are only fifty soldiers in this heavy knight regiment, but their role is not much worse than that of a thousand-man infantry regiment. Daniel armed these knights to the teeth, and even if it was a knight order with an average twelfth level in naked combat strength, even if Orban had strong financial resources, he would not be able to summon such fighters.

The holy unicorns lined up behind Daniel, forming a battle formation, with ten people in each row. A total of five rows of men and horses, with bright helmets and fluttering capes, naturally gave birth to a compelling momentum. With the addition of 200 cavalry and hundreds of infantry in the rear, an excellent troop of 1,000 soldiers appeared in Oban's eyes.

Similarly, there are only a thousand people in the direct line army, but Oban knows that his team is not as good as Daniel's. Those fifty unicorn knights alone were enough to pierce through his line of defense. The earl couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if it wasn't for getting a talent like Allen this time, how could Daniel be forced to move out all the unicorn knights, and he couldn't help feeling two points in his heart.

On the other side, Daniel also wore gorgeous and majestic armor. He raised his head and called across the boundary of the territory: "Count Aubain."

Daniel's tone was cold and arrogant, and Oban's face changed slightly when he heard it. After humming lightly, he nodded and said, "Viscount Daniel."

"Count Aubain didn't stay in his own ark, why did he come to such a remote place in the Emerald Mountains? Others didn't know, and thought the count was going to attack my territory. But I told them, the count Absolutely not doing that, don’t you think so? Dear Earl.” Daniel’s mouth curled into a contemptuous smile, and what he meant by his words was that Earl Aubain didn’t dare to attack the territory, either.

Aubin couldn't hear it, he laughed and said: "Of course not, it's just that I suddenly had a wild hunting intention, so I took everyone here to hunt. It's Viscount Daniel, it seems that my sudden move made you I was quite frightened, otherwise how would I have the chance to see your elite unicorn knight?"

The earl's counterattack made Daniel feel as if he had been hit by a sap.

I couldn't speak for a long time. After a while, he laughed and said: "It's not autumn yet, and the beasts in the mountains are not fat. The Earl is also very interested. He didn't want to go to other places, but he came here all the way. I'm afraid he will disappoint the Earl." .”

"How could it be? Hunting is more about state of mind than prey. Viscount Daniel probably wouldn't have this kind of interest."

Daniel's face darkened, Oban's words implied that he was a villager who only knew how to hunt prey, but didn't know how to enjoy the excitement of hunting. Daniel only came to the fore ten years ago, no matter whether he is an individual or a family, the history is by no means as long as that of the Ridley family. It is also because of this that Daniel is only a powerful Viscount until now, and cannot be promoted to Earl.

Aubain's words stepped on his sore spot, Daniel said coldly: "I really hope that Count, your army is as good as your words, then I will be interested in asking for advice."

Oban also lowered his face and said: "Viscount Daniel seems to have forgotten that your people just attacked my territory not long ago. According to tradition, I can take legal revenge on you. If Viscount Daniel is really interested, how about , let us fight here?"

Immediately, except for the unicorn knight behind Daniel who looked normal, the expressions of the other soldiers became a little unnatural. Although Oban's army was inferior to the Unicorn Legion in terms of quality, it was superior in quantity. Auban's direct troops plus two mercenary regiments now have nearly 3,000 people on the border. There is no danger here, and if there is a real fight, even if the unicorn wins, it will only be a miserable victory.

How can Daniel not understand the simple truth that even soldiers understand. He gritted his teeth tightly, and finally forced a smile and said: "If Count Aubain wants to take revenge, he can come to my Unicorn Castle. As for now, I don't think it will disturb the Count's interest in hunting."

He said to the soldiers behind him: "Since the count is only here for hunting, and he is still in his own territory, we have no right to disturb others, go back to the castle!"

Daniel was straightforward and gestured. Two points behind the battle. The viscount turned his horse, followed by the unicorn knight, and finally the army was gone. Oban looked at Daniel's somewhat embarrassed back, somewhat complacently, and immediately laughed twice. His staff member, Mr. Long, came to him and said in a low voice, "This Viscount Daniel is able to bend and stretch, and will not be provoked by your words. He really is a character."

"Because he still has room to maneuver, but one day, I will push him to nowhere." Alan's figure flashed in the earl's mind. The young baron will be the key to all this.

On the way back, Daniel said to a confidant: "Go, tell Raffles. I ordered him to attack Sunset City. As for how to attack, he has the final say!"

The confidant went to do it immediately, left the home team, and disappeared into the forest.

The viscount's order quickly reached Raffles' ears, and the baron immediately turned bitter. His Dawn Castle was the closest to Sunset City, so it was only natural for Daniel to entrust him with the task of attacking Sunset City. But the problem is that Raffles' army is far inferior to the unicorns in terms of quality and quantity. What's more, they suffered a loss outside Storm City and lost some troops, but they haven't replenished yet.

At present, the army Raffles can mobilize is barely 800 people, not to mention taking down Sunset City, I'm afraid it's too few for the opponent's teeth. After thinking about it, Raffles summoned several other lords for help, but except for Oru, the other two lords refused for various reasons, so angry that Raffles wanted to shoot them.

Of course, this cannot be done, so after sending the two knights away, Raffles said angrily: "These two idiots think that they can't threaten them if they are far away from Sunset City. If you can't repel that Allen now , when he gains a foothold in Sunset City, his strength will only grow stronger day by day."

"Not everyone has foresight, but even if it's just the two of us, there are nearly 2,000 troops in total, which should be enough for a battle." Oulu was full of confidence, and he sneered: "I think this opportunity is good. We can avenge it with our own hands. This time I will do it myself, Raffles, what do you say?"

Raffles smiled bitterly and said, "This is none of your business. You have tried your best. I have no reason to shrink back. Well, I will immediately mobilize the army and prepare for battle."

"I'll go back right away, and I'll be able to join you in three days at most."

"Looking forward to your arrival, friend. Let's fight a good battle together!"

When the two jazz were united and ready to attack Sunset City with all their strength, several adventurers entered the Ark Harbor at dusk. They were all covered with hoods, covering most of their faces, but the faint aura emanating from them made the officers guarding the city reluctant to interrogate them. Especially the one who was walking in front. When he approached, the officer thought he was facing a ferocious beast.

Experience told him that for such a person, since the other party has paid the full tax according to the earl's regulations, there is no need to interrogate him too much, and let him go.

These people came to a bar in the city and found a quiet corner to sit down. After ordering some food and wine, the adventurers ate silently. Soon after, the bar became more and more lively, and when there were more people, the conversation naturally increased. Gradually, the adventurers heard that the focus of the discussion was the recent glorious deeds of the upstart knight who marched all the way and captured Sunset City.

At this time, a guest passed by the adventurer's table and was suddenly caught. The man was surprisingly strong, with just one hand, the man fell on the chair. He was about to get angry when suddenly a money bag was thrown in front of him, and an adventurer asked in a deep voice, "Tell us about the new knight."

The man weighed the weight of the purse, but felt that it was not light. He accepted it calmly, but still asked: "What are you asking about that lord?"

"We're looking for something to do, just to see which lord is worthy of our services."

Hearing this, the man had an expression of "I see" on his face, and then he said enthusiastically: "If you want to join that lord, it's a good time. He has captured Sunset City and is preparing to show his strength in the Viscountdom , there are many opportunities."

"What's the man's name?"

"He, it seems to be Sir Allen, yes, it is him!"

An adventurer lifted his hat abruptly, revealing a tough face. He grinned and said, "Go on, I want to know more."

Carlo said so, and then began to eat a plate of fried steak in front of him. r1058
