Elf——[Rabbit] defeated a furry bear four times its size?
This... This is really the most important news this year that makes people question its credibility. Without witnessing it with your own eyes, who would believe the news that is less reliable than talking in your sleep and more bizarre than bragging? The level of falsehood is as high as that of a three-year-old child
The information that cannot be believed will not only cause laughter from those who have never seen the rumbling scene, but also make them doubt the mental state and motives of the spreader.
If it is said that they are a group of black dragons covered in rabbit skins, this news has some credibility. As for how to make others believe that if you cut open the appearance of humans and animals, you can see a dark dragon, that is another problem.
"Oh... damn! I even wonder if I've gone crazy!"
When someone doubts whether his mental state is still within the definition of "normal", he is not far from entering the realm of "madness".[
Campbell's face was still red and swollen from the forceful twisting, and the severe pain stabilized his mind within the boundary of reason. His anxious mood fell to the bottom with the volley of gunfire, the roar of cannon explosions, and the orcs who kept turning over and falling off their horses.
This was no longer a battle, just a happy one-sided massacre on one side, while the other went crazy and committed suicide.
"What the hell is going on?!"
Campbell grabbed his hair hard and whining complaints erupted from his stomach.
The old cavalryman Campbell complained and whined like a woman, and Leonardo and other companions also had similar emotions and discomfort. The reason was not the incredible appearance of the elves defeating the orcs, but something hidden under the surface killing and destruction—
—The more basic core, the dissonance caused by the impact of concepts is the root of everything.
Fundamental changes in the pattern of warfare.
The war that Leonardo and the others were familiar with relied on strict military discipline to control personal quality. Soldiers with good martial arts formed various large and small square formations, and effectively used swords, shields, long hairs, crossbows, siege equipment, etc. in their hands.
A combination of weapons, assisted by a well-protected magician using attack magic to open a gap in the enemy's defense line, and then brave warriors swarming forward, giving full play to their personal martial arts and courage to crush the enemy's charge.
Unlike the savage orcs, where infantry from remote tribes swarmed into the streets like a street fight, the human army would never allow commanders to allow soldiers to fight indiscriminately. The on-site commanders needed to maintain a strict queue, with the commanders and centurions standing in line.
The command system is smoothly operated under the command of the infantry, and the infantry are continuously exchanged between the front and rear ranks. Compared with the orcs who can only fight until they are knocked down or fall down from exhaustion, the human army can continue to allow soldiers who maintain their physical strength to occupy the positions.
The first row was tired at the same time, and the injured could always be evacuated to the rear in time to regroup.
Regardless of whether the battlefield is a plain or a city, the battle pattern is always such an unwritten convention.
The elf's approach completely subverted this traditional battle model.
There was no strong shield, and soldiers were not seen arranged in various tortoise-shell, wedge-shaped, and other dense formations.
Relying on zigzag-shaped trenches (field trenches and linear defense systems), steel thorns (barbed wire), continuous fire-breathing, staffs (guns) of varying thicknesses, and rapid-fire explosive magic (mortars)
As the core strike force, the orcs' crossbows, swords, and short axes were absolutely beyond the reach of the orcs (420 meters away) to crush the intensive formation charge of cavalry with more than four times their number.
Both sides did not even show off their honed martial arts, and the battle ended with an overwhelming victory for the elves with zero casualties.
At that moment, it was not only the Orc Cavalry that was destroyed, but Campbell's psychological advantage over the elves was also blown to pieces by the horrific results of the battle and fell to the ground.
"If the charge leads us..."
Campbell's uncontrollable and slightly trembling self-talk made his companions shiver involuntarily. The most optimistic perspective will reach an extremely pessimistic conclusion after experiencing a comprehensive triple impact of vision, hearing, and spirit.
——No better than those furry bears.
The special experience of this group of people gives them an unusually sharp sense of the battlefield. Compared with the "Elm Nut Brains" who are filled with middle and upper classes in the armies of various countries, they are better able to accept new situations and absorb the development of tactics and weapons. It is precisely because of this.
In this way, not being welcomed by the conservative forces and some other reasons, he finally settled in Bode Village and tried not to have anything to do with the outside world.
Intuitive on-site firepower demonstrations, coupled with sensitive rational thinking and instinctive understanding, it is natural that when one's own army has achieved leapfrog development and is a big step ahead in terms of weapons and tactical concepts, it is inevitable to fall into pessimism and depression.
.[
"Did the elf regain his ability to use magic? Or did he use some other method...?"
Leonardo, who quickly got rid of the feeling of loss, rubbed his chin habitually. The rough touch of the stubble helped to stimulate thinking, and there was a hint of confusion and complexity in his firm eyes.
"What happened to these elves?"
"The fact that killing is a horrific sight must make us take war more seriously, rather than providing us with an excuse not to use more force in the name of humanity - to put it bluntly, it's that simple."
The playful and slightly mocking tone spoke with gloomy and rigorous words, and the on-site commentary with a strong personal style sounded from behind. What was received was definitely not words of thanks or applause. The human beings jumped up in fear and horror, and immediately drew their weapons and turned sharply behind them.
"...Mr. President, should I use another title that is more suitable? Sir?"
Leonardo's tone of voice as he rubbed his molar contained caution and displeasure, and his pupils were slightly dilated and tightened.
"So - this is who you are."
"That's right. Now that you've seen my company's little secret, it would be too insincere to hide it. It's easier to communicate with an open and honest attitude, isn't it? Your Excellency Leonardo D'Arc."
The black-haired boy's smile was not half hazy, and his voice was cheerful and cheerful. His blood-like eyes, which were full of tranquility and splendor, stared at the leader of the group, Leonardo Li, with his hands clasped in front of his chest.
I don’t know when or what method was used. Li Lin, who revealed his true appearance, had already stood behind them.
If that's what it means, I'm afraid several people have already been released.
The supreme ruler of Ve Company wears unknown clothes, a shiny black leather-like open-collared coat with a hem that is longer than the knees. The leather is tanned and cut, and a leather belt is tightened with metal buckles around the waist, and the leather is wrapped up to the calf.
Boot-making - the whole body is almost covered in black leather. Apart from the smiling face that makes people want to punch it, only the unknown white stand-up collar outside the open collar of the coat from the neck to the top of the chest is not black, but that small piece of white
There is also a thin rope twisted into a butterfly knot like a snake, and in the middle of the knot is an opal stone of the same color as the eye.
Although they wanted to criticize other people's clothes, the group felt that the strange clothes, which exuded a slightly depressing sense of freshness, unexpectedly matched the black hair and red eyes.
The air and romance surrounding the young man were not innocent at all. In his eyes that shone brightly under the sunlight, there was a transparent aura that was deeper than the dark outfit. It did not look like a living being.
.
Eliminate everything as trivial and focus only on the [ghost spirit] of those who kill and destroy.
"Your taste is really unique."
Leonardo bluntly expressed his feelings, and his neutral words revealed inexplicable profound meanings.
Ridicule and bitterness spread in the air, and the fearful companions clutched daggers or short axes, focusing their attention on the young man who was almost covered in elegant black from head to toe.
As long as he makes any movement, various weapons will immediately greet him. After witnessing the elf's combat power, the villagers will not let a little hesitation miss the only chance of victory.
"They are very dedicated subordinates. Their physical fitness is not bad either."
The smile becomes a little deeper, slender and round, and has always been associated with labor. The fingers like artistic sculptures rest on the neck where the snow-white collar protrudes.[
"So, are you confident enough to give it a try?"
Contemptuous and seductive words whispered in my ears, and I subconsciously injected more strength into the limbs holding the weapons. All I could see in my eyes was the neck that seemed to snap off, and I wanted to see what would spew out...
Loud roars like thunder rushed away the poisonous gas in the air, and the cold trembling awakening drove away the heterogeneous and twisted heat in the body. The villagers who did not understand what had just happened and what they were doing looked at each other in confusion.
"Use your words and the momentum around you to induce, confuse others, and make others dance according to your chat script-"
He scolded uninhibitedly, unprecedented unhappiness continued to overflow from Nadu's chest, his emotions became increasingly difficult to control rationally, and his sharp eyes looked directly into the undulating red eyes.
"Is treating others like fools and disrespecting others the way you treat guests? President Li Lin!!"
"This is really rude. But your companions hold the blades of axes and swords and are guests in a place where others are missing? Is it a shaving service? Or is this the special folk custom of Lapland and the etiquette of being a guest?"
The air suddenly became tense with the unapologetic retort. Leonardo knew that the other party was deliberately creating an atmosphere that would make Campbell and the others go crazy and draw their knives, but he could not be so shameless as to say, "You are talking behind our backs, so we have to hold the knives in our hands."
】This kind of specious reason, after all, the other party is just talking, does not have any weapons in his hands, and is alone.
【Even if I say it, it will be blocked for other reasons. 】
Leonardo secretly clicked his tongue. He couldn't help but feel a little annoyed by the opponent who was more difficult to deal with than he had imagined. He couldn't help but miss the easy days when he was young and could just slash through trouble with a sword.
But--
The fundamental method is to draw the sword and face it.
The unknown pressure makes it difficult to draw the sword.
The physical coercion I felt from the boy was many times scarier than the little tricks of using language to control other people's minds.
hundreds;
Thousands;
over ten thousand;
Breaking 100 million;
That magnification cannot be expressed in numbers or words at all. People who have not actually experienced the huge and vast existence whose edges seem to swallow up and dissolve even personal consciousness cannot describe the pressure that is almost limitless.
The person standing in front of me didn't seem to be a young man who looked suspiciously strange from head to toe.
It is an amazing existence that can rival the [World].
Before everything could succumb to the overwhelming force, Leonardo was at a loss for words.
"It's really a bit unpleasant to talk about etiquette in the wilderness... By the way, things are almost done over there. How about having a cup of black tea at my company's camp and discussing your trip?"
He got rid of the entangled hypocritical etiquette and started his own practical steps. Li Lin turned around and walked away. After taking a few steps, he seemed to think of something and stopped, looking back with a smile on his face.
Angry humans.
"That little girl is so cute. I'm a little worried that my subordinates might spoil the child too much and spoil Mr. Campbell's daughter rotten."
After saying these words to refute the truth and falsehood, Li Lin turned his face and continued to walk briskly. The black shadow on the grassland moved leisurely towards the gradually sparse gunfire. Facing the deep back like a dark abyss, Campbell
He spat hard.
"——You bastard!!!"
As a father, as a man, and as a knight, Campbell only had marginal indignation and murderous intention in his heart for holding his daughter hostage and forcing his group to act according to his intentions.
"He's so angry."
The young man didn't look back and spoke like a song.
"I don't know who should be held responsible... Is it the naive little girl who doesn't know that she shouldn't cause trouble to the adults? Or the father who blindly dotes on his daughter and never takes on the responsibility of education? It's a headache..."
The answer is actually very clear and not complicated at all.
Children need to bear any responsibility for the consequences of their words and deeds, and it is meaningless to accuse children who do not understand anything.
[If a son fails to teach, it is the fault of the father] - The not-so-subtle accusations stimulated Campbell, who tried his best to endure, and his white fists trembled non-stop.
A reassuring and calming pressure suddenly fell on his shoulders. Looking back, Leonardo was looking at him.
【Don't be discouraged, there will always be a way.】
Campbell's anger, which was on the verge of exploding, was slightly suppressed by the smiling face that showed his usual optimism.
The opponent can use the good card of Chloe to control the situation. The villagers do not have too many choices. Although there is the opponent's big boss in front of them, they cannot do anything that violates the moral bottom line and uses evil to fight evil.
Once they take action, they will completely break their skin. I am afraid that before they can do anything to Li Lin, the impatient pointed ears will be detrimental to Chloe first. Coupled with the terrifying force that must think twice about the consequences, the hostage rescue will become very complicated.
difficult.
Another reason he didn't want to admit was that whether he could successfully hijack the unprotected company president and force the elves to release the hostage was not a possibility of success.
At least Leonardo thought this was unlikely.
Appearing silently behind their group is a completely dangerous warning in itself. The arrogance of "I control your actions and can kill you anytime and anywhere" is very obvious beyond the abrupt on-site commentary.
"I hope the elves' tea won't taste too bad."
The so-called smiled, Leonardo pulled the reins, and the obedient horse walked out from the hidden bushes, looking very generous and enjoying himself at a tea party.
"Ah...how should I put it? As expected of the leader, right?"
Campbell took a deep breath and laughed half-nakedly and half-proudly, and other companions around him also showed similar smiles.
"Don't let the idiot leader go to the meeting alone to steal the limelight, idiot bastards! Let that stinky brat see what it is to be a man!!"
The men responded loudly and boldly, and the horses jumped out of the grass one after another. They did not take into account the possibility of traps, plots and other tricks, and strode towards the position where the elves had calmed down.
"Colonel!"
Two green monsters suddenly stood up from the bushes. The villagers mistook them for dangerous plant species and subconsciously raised their weapons to prepare for a fatal blow. Leonardo raised his hand to stop his companions who almost made a mistake.
The two [monsters] wrapped in leaves and branches raised the [staff] that the elf had long held and saluted Li Lin. After the latter returned the salute neatly, Campbell and the others noticed that it was actually green and black smeared on the face.
Two elves with striped oil paint, draped in green leaves wrapped around their bodies, and painted with fishing nets similar to the colors of the bushes.
[The camouflage is integrated with the bushes. If you walk in front of them without paying attention, you won't notice them hiding in the bushes. 】
Leonardo nodded secretly, and at the same time understood that this equipment and deployment were carefully designed to prevent enemy sneak attacks, or to covertly approach the enemy's position to detect the enemy's situation.
Being led again, no, surpassed.——The complicated mood of secretly pursed lips became worse as the two elves looked at their group of people with sticky eyes. No matter how they looked at them, they didn't look like they were welcoming guests.
To put it bluntly, they hold an attitude towards humans that is not friendly, and will not escalate to hostility for the time being. It seems that the level of trouble and thorniness of this negotiation will be increased by several levels.
"Inform me, Platoon 1 and Platoon 2 will be on alert, and Platoon 3 will clear the battlefield and let them deal with it cleanly. When Major Brunhil comes back, ask him to go to my tent."
The soldier responded neatly with "Yes!", saluted again, turned around and trotted away.
"Are you good at leading troops?"
The words of praise made Li Lin turn around and said with a teasing smile:
"You are too polite to say that. When it comes to leading troops, you are a senior, aren't you? The leader of the [Knights of the Golden Hen] - His Excellency Leonardo D'Arc."
Ignoring the startled and sinister expressions on Campbell's and others' faces, the black-haired boy said unhurriedly:
"It turned out to be the once-famous [Golden Hen] on the hellish Lapland frontline... To be honest, I was also frightened. I bumped into a living legend just when I went out. I was so flattered. I don't know what to say.
Is it an "inevitability" constructed by the superposition of many accidental factors, or does it make me want to honestly admit that the thread of fate does exist in every corner of the world, leading to the unpredictable causes and conditions of the fate of all living things."
Just as Leonardo was preparing to say something about this contradictory statement of denying fate and affirming fate, a crisp sound came from not far away, mixed with a few blood-curdling screams, as if something terrible was going on.
Same.
"That position...is it possible that you...!!"
"The so-called clean treatment is just that. We don't have the extra energy and food to feed the prisoners, and we can't hand them over to the garrison. Besides, that's the end they deserve. Don't you have such good intentions that all kinds of guys want to do it?
The type of rescue, right? Mr. Leader."
The organic smile turned away, and the strolling pace continued. The screams, gunshots, and Leonardo's speechless look were all concerned with him, and the black shadow suddenly moved forward in the jungle.
Leonardo frowned and looked at the open-air cemetery filled with orc corpses lying on one side. The orcs and their war horses, who were once so powerful that they were ready to crush this position like ants, were piled on the grass 420 meters away, facing each other.
The pile of overlapping corpses resembles a small hill.
The elves were taking the trouble to pierce the orc corpses one by one with the shining triangular spikes on their staffs. Some of the injured bear orcs who were not dead let out resentful death wails. A few cowards who pretended to be dead hurriedly ran and tried to escape.
The elf immediately raised his staff, and after a crisp sound, the truly dead body lay on top of his companions and joined the queue heading to Hades.
The battlefield with the strong smell of blood and death made Leonardo feel a little overwhelmed even after several hard battles to the death. He looked at the blood flowing into the ground from the holes in the corpses and the pieces of meat that could not tell where they used to be and pooling in pits.
, those thin red lines are everywhere between the flesh and the brown mud, like a blood-red net from which no one can escape.
