half year later.

Midland border.

A place deep in the mountains.

Here lies the former Knights of the White Phoenix, now members of the Order of the Eagle.

Since the incident with Grievous, nearly 2,500 people have died just by escaping from the royal city of Yunden City. Half of the Eagle Regiment's combat strength died in that encirclement and suppression.

After that, Mitland also issued a reward.

As long as you kill a member of the Eagle Group, you can receive one gold coin based on the head. For a Centurion, 100 gold coins, and for a Thousand Captain, it reaches 500 gold coins!

This price is enough to hire a mercenary group.

Not to mention that this bounty is regardless of status, no matter you are a civilian, a refugee, a bandit or a mercenary, you can all receive it!

This has also resulted in the Eagle Group headed by Casca being constantly hunted down, and even an individual wants to provoke them.

On the way to escape, many people also fled, scattered, and were killed.

Now, the Eagle Regiment, which originally had 5,000 men and was invincible, has less than 500 men left, many of whom are injured and unable to fight.

Originally, Grievous was the leader of the Eagle Group, and everyone gathered because of Grievous.

Now that Grievous is gone, many people don't even have a goal to move forward.

The remaining five hundred people also hope to rescue Grievous one day and make a comeback.

As the leader of the once invincible legion, the remaining people still trust him, obey him, and love him.

They always believe that as long as Grievous is there, the eagles will spread their wings again and fly into the sky again.

At night, under the bonfire.

Casca dragged her tired body, but in order not to worry others, she still looked energetic.

She hasn't slept for three days.

During the day, he had to lead the remaining five hundred people to escape, and he was not allowed to light a fire for cooking. The smoke would attract the attention of hungry wolves, who would pounce on the eagle with its broken wings without hesitation.

Even at night it is not safe, so be prepared to escape at any time.

The shortage of materials, manpower, tools and food is beating everyone's heart.

Among them, the one who is under the greatest pressure is naturally Casca.

Don't let your guard down during the day, and make a plan to rescue Grievous at night.

Not a day goes by that she doesn't think about rescuing Grievous.

But, it's too difficult.

The Royal City of Mitlan, Yundeng City, has an internal agent inside, so you can enter it at any time, but the dungeon where Grievous is imprisoned will definitely be heavily guarded.

If you bring too many people, you will be easily discovered, but if you bring only a few people, your combat power will be insufficient.

You know, what they have to face is not only the soldiers guarding the dungeon, but also the guards patrolling the castle all day and night.

With just a few of them, the chance of successfully saving Grievous is very low.

But, we had to take action.

because..

"The expeditionary force worth 10,000 yuan has arrived in the Bardan Kingdom. The peasant uprising there has slowed down his progress, but it is expected to reach the border of Mitlan within one and a half months. We only have one and a half months at most to rescue Grievous.

."

Casca's stoic eyes scanned the people around her.

Jiedu, Gorkas, Bibin...

This is the reserve team for the rescue plan.

It would be nice if that guy was here.

With his strength, the probability of rescuing Grievous will be greatly increased.

However, nothing is possible.

And Grievous seems to have ruined the future of the entire Eagle Regiment because of his departure!

This bastard!

Always going its own way!

But you can't blame him, everyone has something they want to pursue.

Just like I want to be Grievous' sword.

But it would be nice if he was here...

Suddenly, Casca was stunned.

Because in front of her eyes, there appeared a figure wearing a big sword on his back, dressed in black, and with a stubborn face.

Just when she was about to scream.

"Casca? Casca?"

Jiedu's concerned tone woke her up.

Casca shook her head.

There was still the bonfire in front of me, but there was no familiar figure.

Jiedu looked at Casca worriedly, she actually fell asleep in this situation.

She is really tired...

Jiedu showed a gentle smile and said with concern: "Casca, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it tomorrow. You are too tired. Go to the tent to rest."

"Don't worry, I will be responsible for keeping vigil."

Faced with Jidu's proposal.

Casca shook her head without thinking.

Then he said firmly: "No, the expeditionary force of Ten Thousand Yuan has arrived in Bardan. We only have one and a half months, or even less. Once Ten Thousand Yuan returns to Mitlan, it will be absolutely impossible to rescue Grievous!"

This is the message given to her as the agent of Yundeng City, so.

"We must discuss the best possible plan to rescue Grievous during this time."

Although I think so, the hard power is here.

They are not Gus. They cannot fight one against a hundred. Once they are surrounded, they can only be captured without mercy.

Not even Grievous, who can come up with perfect strategies.

This is the current predicament of the Eagle Group.

Without Grievous, they are nothing.

…

…

An unknown country.

Guts showed up in town carrying his greatsword.

For more than two years, in addition to staying in the mountains to hone his body and sword skills, he has also participated in unrestricted duels in this city.

He also met a blacksmith family in the mountains, Gott and his daughter Elliga.

And the unlimited duel is also very interesting.

As long as you have confidence, you can invite people present to feel it.

There is only one rule, no killing.

So everyone will click to the end.

But Gus was different. He went to the battlefield at the age of six, killed soldiers at the age of nine, and beheaded generals at the age of eleven.

Every time he swung his sword, he went all out, without any concept of holding back.

Fortunately, with his amazing strength and control of the sword, he also greatly improved his control of the sword in the unrestricted duel, so he never killed anyone in the duel.

But I was so scared that I peed a lot.

Gradually, he also gained a title in this city.

Black swordsman.

He can easily wield a two-handed sword with one hand that others cannot even lift, and he can skillfully control the sword without hurting anyone.

Some people even think that the Black Swordsman can compete with Guts, the former stormtrooper captain of the White Phoenix Knights and the Hundred-Man Killer.

Unfortunately, there has been no news about the Hundred-Man Killer of the Eagle Regiment since that incident, so everyone assumed that he died during the siege of Mitlan.

Little did he know that person was right in front of him.
