our family is gone

Chapter 541 The fish is hooked

The supported target No. 3 was not so fragile. The fighting in the underground also left the pigs with no shortage of food. They also suffered a lot of losses. It was difficult to organize a team capable of destroying the stronghold in a short period of time.

The counterattack expected by Lance and everyone did not appear. None of the cultists from the Ascension Sect showed up. Instead, the pigs attacked the camp as if they had agreed.

This connection is quite good. If you say that the ancestor is not up to something, no one will believe it.

But where did the cultists go?

Where would they appear in the middle of nowhere?

At this time, a cultist walked out of the passage, but what was waiting for him was not guns or bayonets.

There wasn't even a firelight. On the contrary, it was as quiet as night... a peaceful night in the wilderness in the past.

The cultist looked up and saw the shadowy shadow of the sentry tower. There could be such a tall building in the center of the wilderness. What else could it be if it wasn't an outpost?

And being able to see it here is enough to show how close it is.

Without hesitation, he took advantage of the night and touched it. The outpost that made the Ascension Sect feel like it was in the throat was always heavily defended even at night.

A hundred yards in radius is a cleared open space, with various traps above it, which will arouse alert whenever anyone approaches.

Even if you can avoid the trap and use the shadows to sneak up on it, you will see that the torch holder on the high wall is always lit with fire, and you can see soldiers on duty patrolling back and forth.

Even if they get close, they are powerless against the high wall of bricks and stones, and have basically no chance.

But now the outpost seemed to be asleep, with no firelight and no patrols.

It's like an empty city.

After losing the manpower, the outpost seemed to be less strong at this time.

However, this man was not crazy. On the contrary, he showed a rare calmness among Ascension Cultists. He quickly retracted his gaze and turned back to the only passage that was still in his hand.

But he didn't realize that there was a pair of eyes in the void watching his every move.

At this time, Lance was taking care of the wounded soldiers in the temporary hospital.

During the day, Lance not only has to deal with various affairs and logistics arrangements, but also performs [flesh and blood reconstruction] in the name of surgery and medicine.

Even if he is pulled into the operating room with a serious injury that is close to death, it will directly turn into a flesh wound when he comes out.

But Lance will not erase their scars easily, because those are their medals of glory.

Lance is very aware of the terror behind extraordinary power, but everything he does is based on it.

After all, without this move, the wounded might be able to bring down Hamlet.

As for those with minor injuries, they will be treated by medical staff. Their skills are trustworthy after many rounds of practice.

It can be said that their injuries have recovered after treatment. Now they are basically minor injuries and have even recovered.

Among the more than 70 people now, more than 50 will be able to join the battle again tomorrow.

After making a rounds, Lance gave medical guidance and comfort to the wounded soldiers.

A large number of these wounded soldiers are new soldiers. They do not know how to protect themselves while killing the enemy on the battlefield.

They experienced such a terrifying enemy on the battlefield for the first time. Even if they were rescued, the pressure of fear would overwhelm their souls.

Rigorous training can only provide them with a strong body, but the soul must be tempered if it wants to grow.

This is the path they must take. If they cannot survive this, they are not suitable to stay.

But Lance didn't blame them, or even give an order to force them to go back to the battlefield. Instead, he started chatting with them.

Talking about the reason for today's actions, the cultists threatened Hamlet.

The fighting strength of an army is the belief that tells them why they fight.

It is so that the people who suffer in Hamlet are no longer threatened, it is to open up the situation for Hamlet's development, and it is for themselves to win their own glory.

For the sake of humanity, send these anti-human cultists to hell!

This kind of empty slogan is not realistic at all. It is hard to say whether they can understand it, but the emotions of most of the recruits have been aroused.

They knew that the lord saved them and gave them generous treatment, even if it was for the lord, they would not hesitate to take their lives.

These confused young lives believe that the Lord can lead them to victory and move towards a brighter future.

Lance encouraged them, and at the same time, he coldly pushed them all onto the chessboard to compete with their ancestors.

Because Lance spent a lot of money just for today, this treatment is money to buy his life.

This is reality, this is war.

As for those scarred veterans, they don't need comfort at all. Every one of these guys is a ruthless person. Being here basically means that they have stood up in some critical situation.

Maybe it's to protect teammates, maybe it's to kill the cult caster who's under heavy protection, maybe it's to retreat for the team...

Anyway, these new scars are just another medal for them, and their lives are just to defend their loyalty to the lord.

Although Lance provides generous subsidies and spends all kinds of money on rewards, he rarely mentions this on his own initiative.

He was unwilling to use gold coins to measure the achievements of these warriors. Instead, he liked to emphasize the glory they gained and praise their bravery and wisdom.

There is no better reward for those veterans than the recognition of their lord.

If it weren't for some injuries, they would now want to go to the battlefield again and use the death of their enemies to declare their loyalty.

Lance's prestige was built by using the corpses of his enemies in battle after battle, but what truly united everyone was the Lord's tolerance.

He was the only one willing to lean down to these ordinary people and listen to their feelings.

What's more important is that the lord knows how to respect them, even if they are just an insignificant ordinary person.

This scene also aroused a bit of fighting spirit in the eyes of the recruits. Some fear was overcome by fanaticism, and they also longed to be recognized by the lord.

For this reason the brutal battle seemed less terrible.

At this moment, Lance seemed to feel something and couldn't help but look outside.

But he turned around and smiled, telling them to rest early and recuperate, and then strode out.

Old guy, after waiting for you for so long, I finally took the bait...

…………

After dark, the area around the central square in Hamlet Town still looks busy.

Sailing on a ship is definitely not a very comfortable thing, and being able to have such high wages in this era shows how hard it is.

Not to mention the risk of encountering pirates, this money is not safe in your hands, and it is usually more of a direct entertainment to relieve the pressure of accumulation. Therefore, the sailors brought by the fleets are usually the main consumers of various ports and terminals, and now the arrival of sailors has also made Hamlet lively.

Not only the foreign sailors, but also some of the labor force in this town have money in their pockets. Those with families may save it, but some people don't mind treating themselves after a tiring work.

The reason is simple, they also have money in their pockets.

Even if these cargo ships pretend to be carrying goods, they should have been investigated or bought information from Sera. Those supplies are urgently needed by Hamlet.

For example, gunpowder, various tools, and metals such as copper and iron...

The purchase price is at most a bargain between the two parties. As long as the price is not too outrageous, it is impossible to ship the things back. After all, it is not worthwhile if the freight losses are included.

Moreover, both parties also intend to have in-depth exchanges. At this time, price is not so important.

How can there be so much fighting and killing? It's all about human nature.

When there is goods, someone has to move them, which also drives the Hamlet economy.

You can see smiles on many of their faces.

Can you not laugh? Although the transportation is a bit hard, the labor fee is very good, and there are no gangs here to collect protection fees, and there is no official water pumping. Those who have the above ideas should build roads in the wilderness now.

The tax that should be collected has already been calculated on the goods, and they can get as much as they deserve.

This money can buy some new clothes for the family, some meat and a good meal, and...

They carry their yearning for a better life in the future, but there is also something approaching with malice towards Hamlet.

Unlike the lively square, Hamlet is not qualified to be a city that never sleeps like Totnes. The port dock chooses to rest as the night comes.

It can be said that except for a few people who stay on duty and patrol from time to time, there are only those manpower arranged by the fleet itself.

On the Roma ship, Serra had just finished handing over the goods with Hamlet. Because the conversation with Amanda had opened the way, the business matters did not cause any problems and were instead given priority.

Everything has been put into the cabin and we will return early tomorrow morning.

If you turn these goods around in your hands, you can earn thousands of gold coins in profit, not to mention the news.

After all, there are no conditions for communicating with the organization here. The news cannot be delayed. If it is delayed for a day, the value will be much less.

Thinking of this, Sera couldn't help but fall into thinking, recalling the information Amanda had collected, excluding the princess, who among the imperial nobles would come here now?

After all, Sera is still an intelligence officer who has been operating in the empire for a long time, and as Amanda voluntarily gave up her identity in the organization, although this position has not been determined, she has already held this position, but she has not been officially appointed.

Even though the difficulty of channeling in the empire has increased nowadays, it still has its own channels. The intersection of information brought about by Totnes' special geographical location is destined to make her powerful.

She quickly eliminated several possible options in her mind, and soon she seemed to have thought of something. Now she was already thinking about who to sell this information to in order to maximize the benefits.

But just as she was thinking about this, Sierra suddenly felt uneasy.

To get to where she is today, you can say that her extraordinary talent is not as good as top talents like Tamara and Amanda.

But don't doubt her ability. They Roma people do a lot of bad things, not to mention that they are destined to offend many people when they engage in intelligence, so they are all on guard. Without this intention, they will not be able to gain a foothold in Totnes.

Because this ship is also full of extraordinary rituals. Although it is not alive, it contains a lot of extraordinary power.

I saw Serra taking out a crystal ball, which is the core of controlling the ship. With the help of it, the power on the ship can be mobilized.

This increase in her power was terrifying.

She may be afraid of Amanda on the ground, but on the ship she is not afraid at all with the controller in her hand, and can even use the power of the ritual to suppress Amanda.

What is the foundation of an extraordinary organization?

This is.

No matter how strong Lance is, he can't create this thing, because he has not even been around for a year. He has many good things in his hands, but he is as unsystematic as an upstart with no money.

At this time, Sera's enhanced inspiration was constantly warning her that Roma divination was a talent equivalent to bloodline ability, and no one valued the fluctuation of inspiration more than they did.

She couldn't see it at all, and the sudden increase in spirituality with the help of the ritual put her in trouble.

The feeling she felt on this stable land was like the violent waves in a storm.

The chaotic and manic strange power even wanted to pollute her spirituality. If it were not for the ritual protection on the ship...

This is an ominous place!

What exactly is going on!

Not caring about so much, he directly called the guards and gave orders in unquestionable words.

"Wake everyone up immediately, call everyone back, and get out of this ghost place quickly!"

The two guards couldn't help but be startled when they saw this situation. Didn't they agree to leave tomorrow?

But it was obvious that they would not question Serra's decision or ask anything.

"Yes!" He replied in the next second, turned around and started working quickly.

Because of these sailors, some Roma on the ship went to the town to make a living, and Serra didn't want to give up on them yet.

I don’t know if it was a psychological effect, but when the symptoms started to appear, Sera’s uneasiness became more intense.

She could have just left, but thinking about how hard it was to hook up with Amanda, her hesitation was eliminated in an instant, and she immediately used the magic weapon in her hand to call Amanda who should be in the town.

The fast running character of the Roma people may not necessarily have no advantages, such as their current decisiveness.

Now she and Amanda are the only two Romani spell casters, and they are not too far apart, so they naturally have a special way of contacting them.

"What happened?"

Amanda looked a little serious and seemed to realize the seriousness of the problem.

Because this short-range psychic contact method is for emergency use, as long as Sera is not so stupid that she is hopelessly stupid, she will not be able to use this method to find her just because a few Roma people have committed crimes and she needs to fish them out.

Not to mention disturbing her sleep at this time.

"I'm leaving now!"

Sierra's trembling words immediately cleared away the last traces of sleepiness from Amanda. She was extremely awake and asked in a deep voice.

"I can't explain clearly, but I feel uneasy. I just want to leave this ghost place as soon as possible."

Sera didn't mean to say much. After saying these words, she directly cut off the spell. (End of chapter)
