So what are you waiting for!
How could they possibly be prepared for something like this? They would be sent troops to kill them before they had prepared all their combat puppets!
"Ah, Silant, how many Orderers above level 5 are there among the garrison, the personal guards, and all the people around you?" Sean suddenly asked.
Everyone could hear that he wanted to take the initiative to attack the rebels.
Ascalante hesitated for a moment and then said helplessly.
"I haven't counted this yet, I'll go count it now."
"I'll give you two days, no? One day will be enough. Report to me all the people above Level 5, and tell Joseph and Barnier to come over as well." Sean ordered.
"Yes, sir." After saying that, Ascalante walked out, leaving only Karyana and a few other witches.
"Sean, are you going to take the initiative?"
When no one is around, the other person seems to be accustomed to calling his name directly. After all, the two have known each other for a long time and calling each other by their names would seem strange.
"Of course. Do we have to wait until that thing is formed and let them fight it out themselves? The war situation in the north is uncertain now. Once the crisis really comes, it is very likely that Oro City will be forced to donate supplies to the front line. I can't keep such a thing at my doorstep, let alone that kind of power." Sean didn't continue.
Ever since he witnessed the tragedy of Old Town Tacoma, Sean has always been wary of the so-called ancient gods in his heart, mainly because he has no way to deal with them, or perhaps there is no way to deal with them at all.
Although he was protected by the Eye of Ghroth, it was only extremely powerful when facing believers or ordinary humans. However, he didn't know what the result would be when he really faced those things.
Something we can only describe as horrible will awaken from its eons of slumber and all that we know as reality will come crashing down.
Sean has always remembered this sentence, and even the small thick paper page is still in his study.
Ulysses, who wrote this sentence, is still alive and the other party is using forbidden alchemy to prepare to fight back against him. How can Sean feel at ease? He always believes that there must be more than one ancient god, because he has seen two!
I don’t know what other powerful powers they have.
Moreover, Sean felt that it was best not to touch this kind of power. Although he really liked the plots of defying the heavens and fighting against gods and Buddhas when he read the novel, he could not be so crazy in reality.
Man’s greatest fear is the fear of the unknown.
The universe is vast and boundless, and there are some things that I cannot fully understand. Although I want to know everything, I am afraid that no human can do it.
Otherwise, why would I be reborn in this world?
Still keeping the original memory
Over the past year, Sean has not dwelled on this coincidence, because deep down he feels that ignorance is the greatest protection for himself.
"It would be really troublesome if the other party used contract alchemy. However, that place is in the mountains after all. If so many of us go there, it might not be of any use and might even increase casualties," said Karyana.
The garrison of Oro City is no more than 20,000 people. Even if there are three of them with a level of Orderer 5 or above, there are only more than 6,000 people. The forest is so big that if the rebels set up an ambush or guerrilla warfare in it, these 6,000 people may suffer a lot of casualties.
Although the chances of winning in the end are greater, the losses for the city are also greater.
But we can't just leave them in the mountains and become a hidden danger. Often, if we don't take care of them, they will slowly develop.
Sean guessed that when the rebels first arrived in the north, they also used similar methods to recruit people and train troops to grow stronger. As long as the local lords were careless for a moment, they might create a sword hanging over their heads.
I can't make such a mistake!
"There will be sacrifices in a battle, but don't worry about that. I will be fully prepared and will not send too many people over. After all, the defense of the city is the key." Sean thought about it and realized that it would be easier for them to use their mobility in the deep mountains, so if they had to choose, it would be best to choose people with strong field combat skills and strong adaptability, like the four-man team of Barnier.
And also need to be equipped with appropriate weapons
Heavy snow has been falling since the beginning of winter, especially in the first few days of winter.
Such weather greatly hindered the speed of large-scale troops to suppress the rebels. In the end, Sean carefully selected an elite team of more than 200 people to go together.
As the local lord, although no one around him would allow Sean to go there in person, he was the only one in the entire city of Oro who had the ability to scout the enemy, so he had to go there in person. However, Sean also promised everyone that he would not personally participate in the battle unless it was absolutely necessary, and he also believed that they could protect their safety.
The departure time is the next day
Without waiting a moment, according to the location marked on the map, the rebels' camp in the mountains was located a little northeast of Oro City, because to the west of the city were other small towns, to the north were the roads leading to Lietis and the imperial capital, and to the south was the old city of Tacoma. Only the east side was close to the border and had many mountains and dense forests, which was the best place to hide.
After the rebels were almost wiped out last time, Sean thought that they were most likely to escape to this place and hide. Now it seems that they are indeed here!
Facing the wind and snow, he subconsciously touched the bomb on his waist.
All in
And it didn't get damp in the snow, so it was enough.
The four-member team of Ascalante and Vanir has always been following her, but this time after the witch of the Sky-Covering Wings came, Karyana seemed to always follow her closely. It was said that this was a special task given to her by Frelia.
"It's very cold in the mountains in winter. Do you think it's okay, sir?" said Banil at the side.
"I used to live in the mountains, so I can bear this little bit of cold."
Although Sean is a person who likes pleasure, the original Sean Weigel was a baron from a small town living in the mountains. Naturally, his body was not as delicate as those nobles who grew up in the city. His physical fitness has always been good, and he has become even stronger after improving his level this year.
"The Earl doesn't look like a noble, but more like a mercenary."
"Oh, is that so? Someone said that before."
"Your Excellency was once a mercenary?"
"It's just a short trial." Sean didn't say the specific time. After all, Frelia was still dealing with the affairs of Tacoma City and her subordinates were present.
I looked at the horse's back behind me and saw a small cage hanging there.
In the cage is another vulture, which is the tool he will use to explore the map this time.
