our family is gone

The hard power of fishmen is slightly stronger than that of cultists, but their recovery ability is much worse.

However, the cultists stabbed each other in front of Lance, and the same was true for the fishmen. Whether they had the ability to recover or not made no difference.

Lance is as ruthless as he has been killing fish at RT-Mart for ten years, with a knife that hits hard.

There is no need to take into account other people, Lance's combat power is completely released, and the legendary weapon in his hand is like a ferocious giant wolf that completely tears the enemy into pieces.

Obliterate!

destroy!

eradicate!

Annihilate!

Crazy killing! ! !

The murlocs constantly rushed out of the water as if they were walking into the assembly line, and Lance was the one processing them, delivering food directly to the void.

He didn't know how many he had killed, or how long it had been. When no more fish-men emerged from the water, Lance stopped waving the long knife mechanically.

The corpse had been casually sacrificed by Lance long ago, otherwise how could there be room for movement in this small place.

But the strong and suffocating fishy smell around him rose into the sky, and the blood of the fishman almost dyed the surrounding water red and refused to dissipate for a long time.

And Lance finally had time to collect his thoughts.

As expected, there were many fishmen active in this area, and it didn't take long for him to attract the attention of those monsters when he fell into the water.

The monsters showed a crazy and cruel attitude towards the invading humans. Lance knew that he could not fight with them in the water, so he hurriedly swam all the way from the sea and penetrated into the bay as quickly as possible.

During this process, he naturally had to withstand attacks from the fishman's fangs and claws, just like the guy biting his leg. Fortunately, he ran fast, otherwise he would be dragged into the deep water, even if he was confident, he would be afraid.

But now that he was on solid ground, he was not afraid of anything that came out of the sea.

Just like what happened just now, it will be a massacre.

No light from outside could shine in, and it wasn't until the torch rose in Lance's hand that the light brought a little hope to the dim bay.

Lance also took this opportunity to take a good look at the "mouth of the abyss" that seemed to lead to the abyss.

If you go a little deeper, you will see bumpy and irregular roads everywhere you look, and you still don’t know what is under the puddles. If you step on it, it may be a small puddle, or it may be a bottomless puddle leading to the sea. abyss.

Marine creatures can be seen everywhere on the rocks, such as barnacles, conches, and shellfish clinging to them. The sharp edges of the carapace are like sharp knives waiting to taste blood. If they are touched, the flesh and blood will be torn apart.

The rocks on the top have long since become grotesque due to years of erosion by the waves, with irregular heights and irregularities, but the feeling is at least better than that of a cave that could collapse at any time.

Entering here, the more immediate feeling given to Lance is that it is dark and humid. Even under the firelight, a thin layer of sea fog can be seen with the naked eye, obscuring the view.

At first, Lance thought it was normal for him to have a salty taste in his mouth because he just came out of the water, but he soon felt something was wrong.

Because this salty smell did not subside with the passage of time, it was only after careful inspection that the source was found to be breath, which shows how salty and humid the air in this bay really is.

And it was only a short time before Lance felt a thin layer of salt frost condense on his skin. This place was not meant for humans. It was full of corrosive properties. The metal armor would have rusted and turned to pieces within a few days. Ironclad.

He used the sea water to simply clean up all kinds of dirt on his body. Only now did he realize that Lance had just put on a pair of shorts and killed the murlocs. This was the operation of a master.

After Lance changed into a set of clothes, he held a torch and wanted to explore the secrets of the depths of the bay.

Those murlocs dared to steal his home, and now Lance also took out their crotches to see who could withstand it!

But the enemy's reaction was faster than he expected, or the fierce battle just now must have alerted the murlocs lurking inside.

Although no one was alive, the cry still sent a message to its companions, and then there was movement.

The water vapor shrouded the vision, and no one knew what would rush out of the complicated passage in the next second.

But Lance was not afraid at all. On the contrary, the movements of these fishmen confirmed his suspicion.

This is the fishman's lair, and now...

"I'm fucking coming!"

…………

When Lance went out, Hamlet's operation did not stop. When a system is formed, it will not stop without anyone.

Just like Vic finished his mission in Owendo, he came back to rest for a few days.

But the guy whose strength is that of eating doesn't dare to relax at all. Even during the holidays, he is still doing some simple training to keep his body in shape.

In the past few days, he had compiled relevant information about Bastia. There was a huge gap between this place and places like Ovendo.

The Earl has strong control over the territory, and the combat effectiveness of the army is very strong. It is not rubbish like the Orvindo City Defense Force, and there are also organizations like the Eagle Group that hide in the dark.

Moreover, there are no wars or large numbers of refugees, and order is still maintained.

Under various conditions, it is bound to be very difficult to carry out intelligence work in Bastia. Once exposed to the army, they do not have much chance of survival.

The next mission is destined to be dangerous, but it is also a reward for his outstanding contribution in Operation Ovendo. The lord gave him the holy blood and shared his power with him. Now he has entered a new stage.

Moreover, the lord had also arranged for several big figures to serve as internal agents before this, which made him have to admire the lord's super vision.

He was even more amazed at the lord's magic. After all, if the lord hadn't told him about that kind of character, he probably wouldn't have believed that he was one of his own.

The lord has already paved the way for himself. This is why he cannot live up to the lord's expectations. He must start intelligence work in Bastia and do it beautifully.

"School is over~" Vic smiled and looked at his younger brother to greet him.

My younger brother probably watched for a while, but his expression seemed a little emotional.

When Vic greeted him he couldn't help but question.

"Why did you quit the army? What kind of caravan are you forming now?"

His brother was once his idol, and even the lord came to visit his home, but then he suddenly retired.

Although he was injured, he knew very well that his brother had never been seriously injured. He had also heard in school that some people had passed the military examination, but quit because of fear.

Although such people would not reveal it, everyone looked down upon them, and the boy could only hide this suspicion in his heart, and did not dare to mention it to others.

Until my brother said he wanted to be a caravan guard, and now he said he wanted to form his own caravan.

This situation reminded him of a possibility that was even more despicable than fear of fighting.

That is because his brother failed the lord's training for money.

How could he do this?

Have you forgotten that it was the lord who saved your family?

So this time there was a rift in the relationship between their brothers. Finally the showdown came at this time.

Vic's intelligence and alertness were recognized by Lance, and he had experienced many experiences in society. He guessed his brother's thoughts almost instantly.

"You will understand me in the future." Vic smiled and raised his hand to ruffle his brother's hair and said with a smile: "Stop pretending to be an adult. It will be good if you can read well."

"Humph!" The younger brother was naturally dissatisfied with this and went home angrily.

Looking at his younger brother, Vic didn't explain too much. He was prepared from the moment he took on this task, knowing that his identity was destined to be hidden from the light.

The next day, Vic's mother seemed to have sensed something and cooked a sumptuous meal early in the morning.

"Mom, you can take this money. You don't need to be too frugal in your life. My brother is growing up and needs to eat more meat." Vic put the money bag on the table and told his brother, "I'll leave it to you at home." Now, take good care of mother."

After finishing his rest, Vic said goodbye to his family. What he will face is destined to be a dangerous future, but in order to protect his family and protect Hamlet, there are countless people like him who embark on the journey without hesitation...

At the same time, several leaders in the outpost gathered together and began to study and discuss the action plan for the beast cave.

The lord asked them to clear out and explore the beast's cave, but there was no detailed plan because the lord was not here and would only give general directions and what tasks to complete.

The detailed plan is of course made by front-line generals based on the actual situation.

Patton took the lead as the commander-in-chief. He had this tactical thinking. The more important reason was that the artillery could not go down to the den, so it was most practical for him to sit in command.

"The most difficult thing about the beast cave is that it is underground, and the terrain is extremely complex dug by the pigs. Our cleanup cannot only focus on the pigs, but the beast cave itself."

"Yes, the beast cave is the source. It is like blood vessels running between the wilderness and the ruins. The pigs are just the blood flowing in it."

"If you want to eradicate the pigs, you only need to cut off the blood vessels so that they have no way to escape..."

Soon the plan came out. They were going to start from the outside. The leaders and instructors would lead the guards into it. They would clean up a section and then blow up a few key places.

It's like performing surgery to continuously remove complex dens.

The plan is good, but the actual operation may cause a lot of trouble.

Therefore, they had to follow the method recommended by the lord and make various plans before execution.

For example, target points are marked, different routes of attack and retreat are taken into account, and the tasks of each team are considered.

There are also some extreme situations, such as what to do if a collapse traps people inside, how to deal with powerful monsters, how to communicate with each other...

This is destined to be a complicated and huge task. Fortunately, the lord has left maps after exploring the beast cave a few times before, and also figured out the various types, strengths, and methods of dealing with the pigs.

They are still under the protection of the lord.

"Take action!"

"For Hamlet!"

The troops stationed in the wilderness began to mobilize, and the guards who had finished their rest were also ready to go. With the assistance of leaders and instructors, they began to carry out operations against the den...

But at this time, someone in Hamlet's town was full of doubts.

Sophia came to Greendale and asked something strange.

"What is my personal maid going to do?"

"Of course it's to take care of the lord's life."

"But where is the lord?"

"I can't come!"

Just a few words immediately caused both parties to fall into silence. Fortunately, Greendale quickly reacted and comforted her with a smile.

"This is how our lord is. It has nothing to do with your work, and it's not that he doesn't want to see you, because many times I can't find him.

It is possible that he is currently discussing the postpartum care of sows with an old farmer at a farm.

It is also possible that he is currently working with scholars in a workshop on how to improve machinery.

Of course, we will also take the cavalry out to suppress bandits..."

Greendale spread her hands and joked: "Our lord is so magical. As long as you don't want to look for him, he may appear anywhere, but when you want to look for him, you can't find him."

[But he will definitely be there when you need him. 】

Greendale did not say this sentence, and kept it buried in her heart.

While speaking, Greendale seemed to think of something funny. She started laughing before she finished speaking and told Sophia an interesting story.

That is, Tiffany was looking for the lord, but couldn't find him. In the end, she was forced to stay at the lord's mansion until the lord came back.

This interesting little story that fit the current situation immediately made Sophia couldn't help but laugh, and the depressive atmosphere that originally lingered between the two was broken.

Greendale's gentle temperament and almost full social skills easily relieved Sophia's uneasiness with a few words and narrowed the distance between the two.

Only then did she tell Sophia about it.

"I didn't think carefully about this matter. When I told the lord about you, the lord blamed me for how I could arrange the noble princess to be a gardener and a maid. Now that I think about it, I have really wronged you."

"I'd rather not be a princess..." Sophia said but shook her head slightly in disappointment, "I'm not wronged. If it hadn't been for everyone's rescue, I might have died long ago. I want to do something for everyone."

"What do you know? Or what are you good at?"

If you ask ordinary people, they must have the ability to survive in this cruel era.

Even an old farmer knows how to farm, and a gangster knows how to steal.

But Sophia was born to be a master. No matter what she did, there would be someone to serve her. If it hadn't been for this period of experience, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to take care of herself, let alone anything else.

Seeing Sophia's silence, Greendale seemed to understand something.

"Let's do this, you study with me first, and then you can follow the lord when he comes back."

"What should I do?"

"Assistant, or secretary, anyway, you will assist me in my work, and you must familiarize yourself with Hamlet's rules beforehand."

Greendale took out a pile of documents and threw them to her, which gave the restless Sophia something to do.

After being reprimanded by Lance, Greendale also figured out that Lance didn't like vases. If she wanted to get asylum, she had to show the ability to attract the attention of the lord.

No one can help her except herself. (End of chapter)
