Kriya is a medium-sized city in the west of Vertek. The two are only more than a hundred miles apart, and they are at the corner of each other.
Now Wodehouse is stationed here, ready for two lines of support at any time.
Considering that many senior officials of MI9 knew that he had the "Secret Chain", Gray Lint did not hide it and teleported here directly. Although he rarely wore his own military uniform, he was still carefully guarded.
After some interrogation and questioning, he was allowed to enter.
He still has that slender figure, but since the "Savage", his face and body have become much more heroic. Now wearing an olive green lieutenant colonel-level army officer uniform, the whole person has a different heroic appearance. What is not appropriate is that the jet black
Her short hair is a bit soft, lacks strength, is not sharp enough, and does not match the overall style well.
This was the first time for Wodehouse to see this young and promising Mr. Viscount. In the Southern Continental Army Intelligence Unit and the army, there were actually quite few nobles with noble status. Even if some officers were lucky enough to be granted the title of Baron or Viscount
, will also choose to resign safely and no longer fight in the bloody battlefield.
After the accompanying guard notified him of his arrival, he was indeed a little surprised, because Gray Lint was not within the scope of being required to participate in the war, and because he was a viscount, the two factors were superimposed, making it even more rare.
And when he saw Gray Lint himself, he was even more surprised.
"Huh? Is it really Sequence 7?"
"Law Mage" can already directly determine whether the target is an Extraordinary and what sequence it is based on its "location", and Gray Lint cannot use the power of "chaos" to conceal this for the time being.
"Ha ha."
He laughed heartily and said to Gray Lint first:
"Lieutenant Colonel Mariano is so sincere to the kingdom, he is indeed brave!"
He was still unsure of the purpose of Gray Linte's visit, but he only guessed that he was here to assist, so he gave a few compliments first to seal the deal.
Gray Lint came here to help and gain military glory on the way, but he didn't hear the other meaning in his words.
He restrained the urge to be self-effacing and answered with a "natural" smile:
"At this critical moment, I should set an example. After all, I can't live up to His Majesty's trust in us."
After saying the polite words, he didn't want to make any more fearless greetings, so he quickly adjusted his expression and became serious and formal.
Affected by this, Wodehouse also responded seriously:
"Good! You are indeed worthy of being called a young and promising general."
"The most critical situation for us right now is the northernmost city of Charogo. The intelligence personnel of Alese and Tetnik have their own reasons and cannot be transferred at the moment.
Moreover, the person leading the frontline operations there is Lieutenant Colonel Mariano, your acquaintance, Major General Isla. How about you go there to fight with Major General Isla?
Well, I can send you 300 armored cavalry, which can not only coordinate with you to visit the military situation, but also attack the enemy in a small scale, what do you think?"
Um?
Gray Linte was suddenly startled:
"Your Excellency, is this against the rules?"
A good thing is of course a good thing. 300 armored cavalry are more than enough to attack a thousand infantry troops!
Moreover, the armored cavalry is not only highly effective in combat, but also highly mobile. It is definitely overqualified and overused if it is only used to inspect military information.
But the crux of the problem is that under normal circumstances, MI9 members are not allowed to lead troops and directly participate in the war.
The best choice is for everyone to perform their duties.
The last time Isla assigned manpower to him to do some meritorious service, it was only a small group of infantry, and it was a must-win situation, so he just overstepped his control. These 300 armored cavalry are not a small number, their military value is equivalent to that of a thousand infantrymen.
Legion, even more than that. If he commanded improperly and was bombarded by enemy artillery and suffered too many casualties, it would definitely be a very serious battle loss.
Wodehouse waved his hand and explained:
"Rules are rules, reality is reality.
You dare to stand up in this critical moment, and your sincerity, courage, and wisdom exceed others. That is worthy of learning from all officers!
Moreover, I was originally going to send more manpower to Brother Zhaluo to break the deadlock.
Now it is up to you to do this, and it is the same. And if it is really difficult for you to lead the cavalry, you can also go to Zhaluoge to apply for Isla to send you a deputy, which will not affect the combat effectiveness of the cavalry.
.”
Wodehouse has great trust in me and is very friendly!... It should be because I actively contributed my strength and came to assist. Hey, is this a kind of "bribery-charm" without using extraordinary powers?
?
Also, rules are rules, reality is reality. Can this be understood as:
Rules are limited, but reality has many possibilities.
And Wodehouse was said to be a demigod of the "arbitrator" path, but he directly ignored the "rules"... He followed the broader and more applicable "reality" rule?
"Reality" is the proof of freedom, no matter how you say it, it makes sense! Hey... isn't "reality" the best dark side rule? It all depends on the clever mouth of the "lawyer" to explain it as he wants.
It turns out that this is the real dark side rule in the eyes of the "briber":
As long as you can barely "speak" and be convincing, then I can use it!
This can be regarded as taking the dark side rule of "self-centered" to the extreme, but whether others can be convinced is not something that the "briber" can influence... No wonder the next sequence is "Corrupted Baron", which should be influenced
Others, have you convinced others of the "rules" you recognize?
Thinking like this, Gray Linte vaguely heard an illusory "crash" sound, as if something invisible was broken and completely integrated into himself. This made him feel that his body, mind and soul suddenly relaxed, as if
It's like losing something that has been carried for a long time.
His "briber" potion was fully digested.
At the same time, he found that his spiritual body and physical body were closer and more harmonious.
This is something that has never happened before.
"Is it because I removed the spiritual body of the original owner, and then the magic medicine acted on both the spiritual body and the physical body at the same time?"
Anyway, this is a good thing.
The corners of his mouth were filled with joy, and he no longer postponed Wodehouse's kindness:
"Since Your Excellency, the General, has shown such kindness, it would be disrespectful for me to refuse."
Wodehouse nodded affirmatively and said:
"Then I will deploy troops and horses immediately."
"However, the horses' visibility is limited at night, and there are many enemy-occupied areas along the way, so there is no way to rest and recuperate halfway. It seems that to trouble you, you will have to rush there early tomorrow morning."
Grayling nodded without any comment.
In fact, it's only 3 o'clock now. If we really want to rush all the way, it's not impossible to march to Zhaluoge before nightfall.
It's just that in this case, people are fine, but horses can't bear it. And it's July, and it's the severe winter in the southern continent, so even though the latitude of Kriya is not too high, it gets dark relatively early...
In addition, there are wars in the three cities along the way, so it is impossible to march smoothly. If you are not safe, you will encounter enemy troops. Before arriving at Zhaluoge, you must fight a battle.
Due to various factors, although Wodehouse knew that the military situation on the front line was tense, he still managed to remain calm and did not let Graylingt march rashly.
This is exactly what Glalint wants.
Because he planned to take the magic potion tonight and be promoted to "Baron of Corruption".
We can't blame him for being in a hurry or being in a hurry. After all, this is not like the small group of elite soldiers last time. Even if they just surrounded but did not attack, they wouldn't be able to survive for long. This time the enemy has half of the East Balam colony behind them to support them.
The Fusac army still doesn’t know how long the fight will last!
"The problem of spiritual overflow after promotion is quite easy to deal with. I should be able to control the limbs of the 'Servant of Madness' by then. I can use the 'Chaos Master' corresponding to my right leg to deal with it."
"The key is not to be too hidden. After all, resting under Wodehouse's nose tonight... it's a bit troublesome!"
And he had no excuse to return to Vertex.
"Forget it, let's take a risk!"
The so-called risk-taking certainly does not mean taking the risk of being discovered to get promoted. Being affected while taking the magic potion is not fun.
After arriving at the garrison's resting place with his servant "Alister" who was not qualified to see His Excellency the Admiral and could only wait outside, Gray Lint rejected the entourage arranged by Wodehouse and quickly fell asleep with the help of meditation.
.He is used to adjusting himself to the best condition before promotion.
In the evening, after eating a pretty good meal at the garrison.
Using the excuse of "taking action at dawn", he warned the guards, and Gray Lint drove Morgan's cheeks to squirm, raise his body, and turned into his own appearance, then lay down on the bed, closed his eyes and began to "sleep"...
...And he himself took off his officer uniform and hung it on a hanger that could be seen from outside through the window. This was to prevent the patrolling soldiers from noticing some small details.
In the end, he left the "chain of tricks" here and hid it in his military boots.
Yes, the risk he took was the Marionette and this demigod item.
The next second, his figure faded and he escaped into the spirit world.
"It shouldn't be a problem, it will only take a few hours at most, and I can also sense it with the help of the 'Secret Chain'."
He did not set up a "spiritual wall" to seal this place, so there are three hundred taels of silver that belong here.
