Outside this luxurious banquet tent, with the smell of blood permeating the air, Rafael and others, wearing Lombard guard uniforms, also held their weapons tightly, nervously and vigilantly guarding the surroundings.
The small tent behind them was already filled with corpses.
They were more than a dozen death warriors who followed this officer and waited for an opportunity to sneak attack on the enemy camp. They were either doing it for the promised money, or for glory and future, or simply for revenge. Or they were just seeking death, hoping
Get a more heroic ending.
Then, coupled with the temporary allowance of 50 Ecu (ancient silver coins) for each person, plus an additional 100 Ecu subsidy after the incident, regardless of life or death, they became even more determined. However, sneaking along this way also allowed them to see with their own eyes
Witness a textbook killing performance.
Under the personal guidance of Lieutenant Colonel Rorschach/Military Judge, no matter it is the guard at the sentry post, the hidden sentry in the trees and grass, or the patrol that encounters by chance; all living creatures that can be seen, as long as they are touched by him
Touch it quietly, and then only the lifeless body will be left.
As a result, these death-defying warriors, who had already paid a sufficient price and suffered casualties and were mentally prepared, had almost no chance to take action; they could only follow behind with bated breath, allowing him to quietly kill one after another.
The sentry was then responsible for hiding and disposing of the bodies.
This is of course due to the overwhelming Lombard army, which left the interior empty and unprepared; or the soldiers left behind were too lax and lazy; but this kind of sneaking and killing method of killing people all the way and leaving no one behind
The efficiency is still particularly creepy,
Rafael and others were secretly glad that after taking the initiative to challenge this humanoid weapon with weapons, they were able to survive with all their limbs. It was really a great luck. Of course, their luck tonight was obviously far more than that.
, because the Lombards actually held a banquet.
Therefore, what was originally an initial task of waiting for an opportunity to burn down the grain and baggage, frightening the troops and horses, and shouting randomly among the crowd to create chaos quickly escalated to the commander's temporary decision to launch a surprise attack on Lombard's main general.
personal action.
Although it was a personal action, they no longer needed these disguised burdens; but for some unknown reason and thought, Rafael and others took the initiative to follow. As a result, they also witnessed a beautiful scene again.
The feast of death dancing on the tip of a knife.
Under the cover of the hustle and bustle of the banquet in the big tent, the officer, who had once again put on the Lombard officer's robe and armor, was able to openly walk into the outer guards, fully letting go of his hands and feet to attack, showing his stealth
The opposite side of killing.
In the hands of this adult, no matter whether it is a fence, a flagpole, a chain, a saddle, a table, a chair, a utensil, a fire cage, or a traditional shield, a sword, a gun, a helmet, a breastplate, or even a living human body, everything can be captured at will.
Weapons that cause tragic damage...
Then, he rushed into the big tent with more than satisfied, and left the follow-up clearance and security of the outside to Rafael and others who followed. You know, everyone who is qualified to participate in this banquet is
They are most of the officers and generals in the Lombard Army!
In an instant, there was a large splash of blood on the banquet hall tent; there were loud roars and shouts, the figures rushing to attack and besiege, the violent fire that was knocked over and overturned, and the changing lights and shadows of waving swords.
It was like a whole brigade had broken in and were fighting.
But Rafael's peripheral followers became more relaxed; they only had to pretend to be on duty and blockade the scene; they deceived and persuaded the scattered sergeants and soldiers who came to ask questions in batches, and even sneak attacks and killed those who wanted to
Continue to break into people who ask for instructions personally.
Rafael, who looks more like an aristocratic officer in appearance and temperament, temporarily became their leader and the best cover; this was something he did not expect. Although he did come from the northern border province,
He is also the eldest son of an old knight of the fief.
Although he has everything he should have as the eldest son and heir of a knight. However, since he was a child, his father has not been very close to him, and there is even a faint fear and taboo. Until one day, he was captured by a big shot in the frontier province.
, the Marquis of Liege summoned him as a candidate for his attendant.
His father couldn't wait to send him as a teenager to a certain castle of the Marquis family; it was as if he should not be a part of this family in the first place. However, he received education and training as a retinue here, but he also
Another truth is vaguely detected in the gossip.
Raphael was not the biological flesh and blood of the nominal father, but the product of the impulse of the young Marquis of Liège after a hunting trip; and also caused the death of his mother. Therefore, he was forced to submit to the superior.
Only powerful old knights are closer to their children.
Despite this, Raphael quickly accepted his fate, and calmly gave up his original family name and inheritance rights, accepting the surname Castello given by the Marquis. As a result, he completed horse riding, shooting, and sword fighting with outstanding performance.
, after wrestling and poetry, scriptures and other education.
Raphael also ushered in his final result: as a family knight candidate/senior retainer, he became the only daughter of the Marquis, the half-sister he had never met, and the subordinate and guardian of Baroness Farnese.
Guard. However, this was also the beginning of many nightmares for him.
Because Rafael soon discovered that this half-sister who had no idea about this had a really bad and twisted personality. Also because of some lack of growth environment, she liked to torture and tease those around her.
Everyone; even alone in the backyard burning playthings.
Burning alive those birds, cats, dogs and dolls that she had lost interest in. However, I don’t know if it was the attraction of blood that made her show indescribable indifference to this young and handsome guardian in daily interactions.
Interest and occasional tolerance come with patience;
If that was all, Rafael would be able to endure it until he got married with the other party, and then he would be free. But suddenly one day, the countess he protected and served was wearing a nightgown with blood on her lower body.
I touched his room...
In the end, Rafael, who could not escape the double torment of his conscience and his evil nature, and who did not want to cause disobedience or bring disgrace to the other party's reputation, could only choose to abandon his oath and abscond, leaving behind all his sins and mistakes.
Take it all on your own...
He slowly recalled and thought so calmly, and with the cooperation of his companions, he used an armor-piercing short thorn to pierce the back of an officer who had a look of despair on his face and fled in a hurry to ask for help. Then, he seemed to be supporting him.
A drunk opponent is generally sent to the shadows.
At this time, a gust of hot wind blew into Rafael's face, and he was shocked again. However, the fire in the originally gorgeous tent had burned through from the inside out, turning into a raging flame.
The bright fire scene also makes the corpses hidden in the surrounding shadows invisible.
So the next moment, before these fake guards could do anything, they were quickly submerged in the crowd of Lombard soldiers coming from all directions to put out the fire; however, the screams in the burning camp still continued; more and more
Someone rushed in to rescue.
In front of the Lombard soldiers coming from all directions, a tall monster soaked in blood suddenly walked out of the gorgeous tent's blazing fire. The monster's armor and stomach were full of cracks and flames, and even
There are several long and short weapons inserted;
But it didn't seem to have any impact on it at all. In the hands of this bloody monster, it was still dragging and lifting the bloody heads of the several sergeants and lieutenants who had just rushed in to try to save people;
He swung his hand like a meteor hammer towards the surrounding crowd.
"devil!"
"Monster!"
"This is a demon from purgatory!"
"This is not a demonic power that mortals can resist."
"Lord Almighty, don't you protect us anymore?"
Among these Lombard soldiers, there were also screams and screams one after another. Some people were muttering in panic and gesturing with the Holy Cross, shouting out loud; but they began to turn around and run away in groups; and they quickly spread and spread.
, became a great rout that shook the entire military camp.
Therefore, after being wrapped up and mixed in the crowd, Rafael and others, who kept shouting slogans to disrupt the morale of the army, left again and returned. In addition to Jiang Tian, who was sitting on the pile of corpses piled high, he also found a corner
There is a sole survivor who has no way to hide or retreat and is pretending to be dead.
"In the name of Lord Bran, the vassal of Lombard, I request a sufficiently decent treatment and am willing to pay an equal ransom for it." The young man with tears streaming down his face quickly shouted: "I am still the Principality of Parma.
Nephew of the Archbishop, and sole heir,"
When it dawned again, the dust had already settled at the west city gate, which was a mess of ruins and corpses lying on pillows. The kingdom flag with blue stripes and white stars was still flying on top of the city. Among the corpses and wounded, only the young adjutant
Polly leaned on the flagpole and stood tenaciously.
"Thanks to you, Boy Polly." Jiang Tian secretly patted the opponent's shoulder with some shame and praised loudly; in fact, seeing the city being attacked by a house-changing sneak attack, he once made a move just in case nothing could be done.
Let go of these people's thoughts of running away and starting over.
"Sir..." However, the next moment, the young adjutant Polly, who looked miserable, also lost his expression. He was about to open his mouth to say something, but suddenly his head tilted to one side, his eyes were so distracted that he could no longer stand up.
Jiang Tian hurriedly supported him, only to realize that his armor had been soaked in blood.
Damn it, Jiang Tian couldn't help but curse in his heart at this moment; if one of the people involved in the mission died like this, wouldn't all his previous efforts have been in vain? "Doctor... where is the doctor?"
