The Original Vampire

Chapter 19: Countermeasure

   "Why are you targeting a small mercenary like this?"

  After Thrall left, Vera asked in a narrow tone.

   Obviously, Vera also saw Colin's hostility towards Thrall, but she thought it was the two who were jealous of themselves.

   Thinking of this, her little face hidden by the black gauze was a little blushing, but there was a hint of joy in her heart involuntarily.

   Women always like to see men fighting for themselves, even if she doesn't like any of them.

   "A person who even dared to kill his own father does not deserve my respect." Colin said righteously, and he revealed Thrall's old story without hesitation.

   "What?" Vera was surprised.

   "Indeed, Thrall is a poisonous snake, you need to be careful." Bliss said to the side, the knight obviously looked down on this filial son who killed the father.

   "I see." Vera nodded, and put the little mercenary who had thought to be a little clever on the blacklist.

   "Okay, let's get back to the topic."

  Vera began to introduce to Colin the specific situation that Sentry had inquired about.

   At this time, it can be determined that there are two wolf cavalry that have caught up, each of which is almost 700 or 800 people in size, and the total number is already equal to the current number of their own.

   However, the opponent is the most elite wolf cavalry in the regular troll army, and on his side, except for the cavalry squad of less than a hundred people, which are still elite, the rest are all defeated soldiers who escaped from Jinghu camp.

  Moreover, these broken soldiers were mercenaries and civilians who were temporarily pulled over by an emergency call-up order.

   is completely a mob.

   Under such circumstances, even Vera, who had no military knowledge, began to panic a little, so she quickly approached Colin to discuss countermeasures.

   Colin sighed and made his last effort: "Now let's leave those broken soldiers behind. We only have time to go with the cavalry."

   "Is there no better way?" Vera still didn't give up.

   The kindness of this female mage seemed to Colin to be somewhat misused, and she had to persuade again:

   "I know you don't want to abandon them, but even if we stay, we won't be able to save them, we will only take our own lives."

  Vera stopped talking, but her eyes were still stubborn.

   Colin had no choice but to turn his head and look at Bliss, hoping that the battlefield knight could be more sensible.

   However, the eyes of the Bliss Knights were full of determination: "I brought these people into this battlefield, and I have abandoned them once, and I don't want to abandon them again."

   Only then did Colin know that it turned out that Bliss agreed to accept the defeated soldier not because of Vera's order, but because he felt guilty.

  Although in Colin's view, he was acting on the order of the Marquis, and it is not his fault.

   Looking at the tough-looking Bliss Knight, Colin sighed in his heart.

  He knows very well that once a determined person like Bliss has made up his mind, it is difficult to be persuaded by others.

   However, the Bliss Knight also knew very well that this time it was really bad luck, so he looked directly into Colin's eyes and asked earnestly:

   "Knight Colin, I hope you can take Miss Vera first..."

   "No! I won't go!" Vera immediately refused.

   "Miss Vera..."

   "I won't leave! These are my people, and I have a responsibility to protect them!"

   The atmosphere suddenly became sensational...

   Colin only felt a pain in his head, as if watching a TV show with dog blood.

   However, the phrase "my people" that Vera said in a hurry surprised him.

  Because they are qualified to say such things, they must be members of the Saint Hild family, and they must also be members of the family.

   But the Duke of St. Hild has no daughters.

   Is it an illegitimate daughter?

   is wrong.

   Colin also thought that although the laws of the nobility in this world are similar to those in the Middle Ages of the earth, there are still differences. Here, illegitimate children (females) have absolutely no right of inheritance.

   The nobles here are particularly obsessed with the purity of blood.

   Even if the children of the direct line died out, the nobles would rather choose an heir from the lineage of the family than pass on the title to the illegitimate child (female).

   So, even if Vera is really the illegitimate daughter of the Duke of the North, she is not qualified to say "my people".

   Just as Colin made various brainstorms about Vera's true identity, the dispute between the two opposing people also calmed down.

   Unsurprisingly, Bliss could not persuade Vera to go first.

   Although there are some virgins and some silly, this female mage does show admirable courage.

   There was a moment of silence in the tent.

   After a long time, Bliss suddenly said:

   "Knight Colin, you should leave here. You must have learned from Knight Raymond that your father, Baron Anglia, has died in battle, so you need to go back and inherit the title."

   Colin suddenly raised his head, looked at Bliss's expressionless face, and asked abruptly: "Why hasn't this news been returned to Graycastle?"

   Bliss hesitated, but told the truth: "Since the end of last year, Lord Marquis has ordered that all news on the frontline be blocked."

"Why?"

   Bliss did not answer.

   But Colin can also guess the answer.

   It is nothing more than that since then, the battle situation on the front line has taken a sharp turn. The Marquis of Charles has the motive to block the news whether it is to preserve his face or to prevent people from floating in the rear.

   But he may not know that such a move indirectly killed Colin's predecessor.

   Charles St. Hild.

   Colin has quietly hated this name.

   "Knight Colin, you'd better go back to Greycastle first, where you are needed..." It was obviously the first time that Vera heard the news, and she felt sympathy for Colin and wanted to persuade the other party to leave first.

   But Colin put on an impassioned posture, righteously refused:

   "I will not leave either! Whether it is to avenge my father or protect the glory of the human race, I must stay and fight the trolls to the death!"

   Of course Colin will not leave at this time.

   But not for those high-sounding reasons, but for not wanting to waste the blood of a high-level knight and wizard...

   "Colin..." Vera's big beautiful eyes were full of colors, UU reading www.uukanshu.com "You are a real knight!"

   Even Bliss was moved, as if he had taken Colin's eyes suddenly.

   The three of them looked at each other for a long time, and the tent was filled with generous air...

   It’s a pity that Vera and Bliss don’t know that this guy Colin is already considering which pose to use to pretend to be dead...

   waited for the three to calm down, and finally began to discuss countermeasures.

   Now that the principle of "don't abandon or give up" has been clear, then, with so much cumbersomeness, being overtaken by the wolf cavalry is a solid matter.

   A battle is inevitable.

   Bliss first began to talk about his combat plan, where to meet the enemy, how to build simple fortifications, how to cooperate with cavalry and infantry, and so on.

  Vera listened very attentively.

   As for how much this female mage who lacks military knowledge understands, then only God knows.

   Colin listened absent-mindedly, as if thinking about something else.

   "Knight Colin, Knight Colin?"

   "What?" Colin came back to his senses, and saw the two opposite people staring at him.

   "Do you have any comments on this battle plan?"

   Colin didn't answer this question, but thoughtfully said: "Sorry, I just lost my mind. Because I was thinking, maybe we might have escaped this battle."

   "Really? How to hide?" Vera asked hopefully.

   She doesn't want to be a martyr without a last resort.

   Moreover, the previous successful breakthrough gave her confidence and made her think that Colin might create another miracle.

   Colin calmly drew a simple map on the ground with his horse whip, and then tapped a little at a river bend:

   "We are hiding here!"
