Chapter 373 Intelligence



Chapter 373 Intelligence

"Then let's see what kind of intelligence you brought." Luca slowly sat down and looked at Alessio, and said jokingly: "Is there anything more incredible than this bastard Jiang Carlo? I would like to hear the details."

"Oh, yes, it should be worse than him." Alessio said, and then put the parchment in his hand into his clothes. Then he took out a roll of parchment and spread it on the table. It was a map of Britannia. Pointing to the city of Linton in the province of Lower Britannia, he said to Luca: "According to the information given to me by my informant, Kevin Sean, the Saxon leader you drove away at that time, is entrenched here. Moreover, he has united other Saxon tribes here, including many Anglo tribes. Of course, many Celts are still waiting and watching. It seems that they intend to be fence-sitters. As long as we become stronger, we can win their support. It's just that we are not far away from the Saxons now, not to mention Kevin Sean also knows a lot of things, so we have to swear revenge, and every step we take next will not be easy."

"It's not very far from us, but what does it mean?" Luca asked Alessio.

"Of course!" Alessio nodded, and then said to Luca seriously: "Why did you kill the old people he left behind? I heard that you also ate their children, is that true? Luca!"

"Oh, my God!" Luca said to Alessio, holding his head. "Even you believe their lies."

"That's what they all said. The fishermen I met on my way here from Lundinlum told me. They are terribly scared of you now." Alessio shrugged and said, "If this continues, your enemies may not even have to do anything. The people whose lands have been reclaimed will drive you out."

"I know, I know!" Luca began to defend himself, "But what can I do? I left my instructions and went to negotiate with the nobles of Lundinlum. When I came back, I found that Jiang Carlo and his men had piled up the bodies. They even apologized to the soldiers who killed people! Now, they have taken all the good reputation and the support of the soldiers. They put the blame on me for the murder."

"Why are they doing this?" Aresio said he couldn't understand.

"How should I know?" Luca snorted coldly and continued, "When I came back, it was only an hour and a half. They had already dealt with it in such a short time, and they still insisted that the Saxons were the first to start it."

"It's not impossible." Alessio stroked his chin and said thoughtfully.

"Oh, this is not what you are thinking about now, handsome man!" Luca returned to the topic and said to Aresio: "Go on, change the subject."

"Oh, I forgot about that." Alessio tapped his head and said, "This may be a new nation we have encountered." Alessio took out a roll of parchment from the package he brought with him, spread it out and showed it to Luca, saying, "Look, this."

Luga looked down and saw a picture on a piece of parchment. It was of a tall and strong barbarian with bared fangs and claws and a skull hanging on his body.

"What is this?" Luca asked Alessio.

“Nephilim,” Aresio explained to Luca, “is the name given to them by Christians to describe this race.”

"Nephilim." Andrew thought thoughtfully, "Aren't they giants from the East? I heard that they are monsters that are the offspring of fallen angels and humans. They have appeared in Eastern legends, but why do they appear here?"

"This may be God's will." Aresio turned to look at Luca and continued, "First, the priest broke his vow of killing, and then the Nephilim appeared in the Saxon camp. So many unfavorable signs appeared at the same time. Does it mean that we must make a decision in this war? It may be that God is foretelling that we will not be able to succeed in this battle."

"Oh, Aresio, why are you backing off too?" No matter how vividly Aresio described it, how could Luca, who insisted on atheism, be convinced? They were all human beings, so just because they were tall and ugly, they could be called Nephilim? How could this be convincing?

"So, do Jiang Carlo and the others know?" Luca suddenly thought of a great idea, but now he had to ask Aresio whether this information was absolutely accurate.

"I can be sure of this. They don't know this news at all." Aresio answered very confidently. It seemed that he trusted the so-called informant very much.

"That's easy." Luga smiled and immediately felt relaxed.

"Oh, Luca, do you have any good ideas?" Andrew, who was still confused, couldn't help but ask him.

"Yes, yes my friend." Luca said to Andrew and Aresio, "I have thought of a great way to maintain my connection with the Ninth Legion." As he spoke, he whispered with Aresio and Andrew.

"What?" Alessio raised his head and widened his eyes. "You are crazy, Luca. This action is too dangerous."

"Yes, Luca!" Andrew also expressed his opposition along with Aresio. He continued, "We still don't know what the alliance between the Nephilim and the Saxons is all about. If you act rashly like this, let alone fail, you will be defeated by them. If it is true as the myth says, the Nephilim are all demigods, how can we mortals be their opponents?"

"I absolutely don't agree!" Aresio said bluntly.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Please, this is the only way we can consolidate the current united army!" Luca begged, "You don't know, it is precisely because of my so-called bad reputation that the young people in the city are afraid to follow me. At that time, there were only more than 30 soldiers recruited. If we don't have soldiers who can fight, we will fail sooner or later. Now is not the time to waste our energy!"

"I agree with you, Luca!" Alessio nodded and said, "But think about it, such an action is too dangerous. Although the Nephilim only have this parchment portrait, who knows what kind of strength they are."

"Ha, even a mighty hero cannot stand up to a large number of people!" Luca said to the two of them with a smile: "Let's first find an opportunity to recapture other cities in Lower Britannia, take advantage of the current drop in temperature, and then prepare to face Kevin Sean and Tiberius, the successful instigator, next year!"
