Section 92 Inquiry

"I have something to ask you," said Ashu Rufate. "How much do you know about the swamp?"

"Not much." Gander pondered for a moment. "But I've seen swamps... smaller ones. But I know that in swamps, bamboo steaks, boats and other things work better than four and two feet."

Ashu Rufate was excited. He didn't expect to have a chance to hit him. However, he had known before that Gande was a man of great knowledge, so it would be normal to have seen the swamp.

"How do you get water in the swamp? I mean clean water."

"It's hard. It's basically all about luck," Gander replied. "If I were to say it, I would recommend carrying more water bags."

"So, if a scout carries as much water as possible, how many days can he move in the swamp? It's not that kind of ordinary reconnaissance, but considering the situation of fighting."

"In a cautious attitude, I recommend that the time is two days, at most no more than three days. Of course, if you want to take risks, the maximum can be extended to seven days. But if you have more than seven days, it is not a risk, but... a suicide squad." Gander said.

Three days... Considering the influence of the complex terrain of the swamp, considering the huge difference between military operations and scout reconnaissance, what Astiana said is really the truth. Nurg's believers were like hiding in a turtle shell that could not be broken, completely occupying the initiative in strategy.

Ashu Rufate pondered for a while. Among his current subordinates, Ashu Rufate relied on four people. One was Tarik, the wizard apprentice was his assistant and staff officer, but from another perspective, it was also Tsengchi who designed the chess piece to stay by his side - at least Ashu Rufate thought so.

The second one is Sag, and it is an unexpected gain for the Chaos champion to follow him. Sag is almost no interest in military command. What he cares about is charging and glorifying the blood god with blood. Ashu Rufate does not know what position he will take for the future attack on the terror abuse. However, at least the terror abuse champion's super power is very useful at present. In addition, he is also the only Chaos champion under Ashu Rufate.

The remaining two are Flint and Gander. Flint actually has no advantages - as mentioned earlier, he is still very young, and although he has been favored by Prince Meng Huanyu and obtained the identity of the Chaos God Selected Warrior, in fact, neither experience nor knowledge is his ability. His only strength is his reliability - although now that Tsengchi is influenced, Asu Ruffat dares not fully trust everyone, at least Flint's loyalty is still the tallest selected from the short one.

The last one is Gande. As mentioned earlier, he is a very outstanding scout and an experienced warrior. Although his fighting style may not be able to please the gods of Chaos, from another perspective, people like him have the greatest chance to survive on the battlefield. Moreover, although not very sure, Ashu Rufate felt that Gande's keen observation and experience might not be valued by the custom of Chaos, but it is far more important in combat than muscles and blades.

"Sir?" Gander was a little puzzled. Ashu Rufat called him, asked a few very simple questions, and then he was stunned.

"That's right." Ashu Rufate finally decided to discuss with Gande. He simply told the news he had received from Astienna. After listening to Ashu Rufate's detailed description, Gande took a few seconds to think about it, and immediately said directly without hesitation. "Can we change our target?"

Ash Rufate directly rejected it.

"The only viable trick is only one." Gander said quickly. "It is the method that Lord Astiana once used to lure the enemy with bait and fight the decisive battle on the edge of the swamp. But, sir, remember that there is only one chance. That immortal master, Jacks... has received enough education before. As long as you fail this time, you will probably never have the chance to lead him out of the swamp."

"Defeat his army is secondary," said Ashu Rufate. "The main thing is to catch this immortal master and let him live forever."

"Then I have to say that this kind of thing is totally luck. Unless it is a special terrain that makes the enemy unable to retreat, it will only be left to fate. You must understand that even if he surrounds and annihilates his army, the possibility of his escape is very high."

This sentence seems unreasonable to the Southern Kingdom - because according to statistics, if an army is surrounded and annihilated, the possibility of its commander escaping will never exceed 20%. Unless the commander chooses to escape from the beginning of the battle, the general itself is the focus of the enemy's pursuit and siege. However, this is indeed an absolute fact. Since the Chaos Champion, these high-level believers have superhuman abilities because they have received a lot of divine grace, which makes them have a huge difference in combat power between them and ordinary believers. Therefore, it is natural for a general on the battlefield to break through the enemy's siege alone with the power of himself (or with the guard).

So Astiana had severely damaged the army of the immortal dominant Jacks but failed to sack him. This is not because Astiana's luck is particularly bad, it can only be said that his luck is not particularly good.

"You're right," Ash Rufate replied. "But if he escapes, it won't take too long, and the immortal master will gather an army again."

"And he will learn his lessons, and it is difficult to be attracted by those baits." Gander added. "So, Lord Ashurufat, if possible, I suggest you change your opponent. In addition, I have to remind you that the most troublesome thing about Nurgo's believers is not their strength on the battlefield."

"Ah?" Ashu Rufat looked up at Gander.

"It is a disease. The believers of the father of the plague regard disease as God's blessing, because although those diseases can make them bleed all over their bodies, they cannot kill them. But for believers of the father of the plague... those blessings have fatal power." Gander said. "For example, if possible, I would never try to kill a higher-level believer of Nurgre. Because as long as the disgusting juice on his body splashes on me, I'm afraid I can't live for a long time."

For some reason, after hearing Gande's words, Ash Rufate subconsciously thought of the Chaos Wizard named Luo Jin and the previous battle.

"Is this a legend or have you ever witnessed it?" Ashu Rufat asked. Speaking of which, he saw many corpses of Nurgle warriors on the battlefield after the war (the characteristics of such corpses are very prominent), but he did not notice the spread of the disease in the army.

"Legend." Gander shrugged. "I didn't plan to try to see it with my own eyes. Almost all evil diseases can be contagious."

While speaking, there was a movement at the door of the tent. Rafinia opened the curtain door. However, she didn't seem to have expected that Gande was still here, so she was stunned for a moment, then apologized and left.

"Very good woman." Gande looked at Rafinia's figure leaving with an admiring expression. But the next second he realized that it was not the Asoven tribe, and Aso Rufate was not the temporarily resident of the Southern. He quickly stood up straight, but saw Aso Rufate not paying attention to his words to himself before, but was pondering.

"Ah, Gander, what did you say just now?" Ashu Rufat reacted after a second.

"I said Rafinia is beautiful," replied Gander. "And, she is very enthusiastic about you...."

Tsengchi or Slaanes’ pawns. Ashu Rufate secretly answered in his heart. This feeling of being controlled by others is really uncomfortable, so that he now doubts everyone around him. Speaking of which, perhaps they—including Ashu Rufate himself—are probably all pawns of the gods, but they are only divided into self-consciousness and unconsciousness. If there is a difference, that is, although Ashu Rufate is a pawn, he is an unwilling pawn, and he consciously has the ability to try to break free from his identity as a pawn. While other Chaos believers are willing to be pawns of the gods.

After Gander left, Ashu Rufa decided to calm down. Conquering the swamp was just a light sentence for Tsengchi, but in reality there was almost no possibility. The immortal master Jacks was a defender with all advantages, while Ashu Rufat was an attacker with no advantages.

He turned the ring in his hand half a circle, letting the side that depicts the Staineria emblem face upwards, and then put it on his forehead.

If there is a choice, Ash Rufate is extremely reluctant to communicate with Slaanes. Because every time he engages in such spiritual communication with Slaanes is a test - as long as he loses his mind, he may be doomed and will be completely degenerate into the minion of Slaanes. But he really has no choice now.

"My Knight..." Slaanesh's voice was as always full of temptation, teasing your inner desires and impulses.

"There is no way to fight this battle," said Ashu Rufate. "The conditions are too unfavorable. Can you change the method?"

"If you want Nurg to join us, this is the fastest way. As long as you conquer this swamp area... the father of the plague must make a choice..."

"This is too difficult," said Astiana. "It took Astiana a twenty-year period to complete this task. How can I do it?"

"Because you are special." Slaanesh's voice was as soft as the wind, but it shocked Ash Rufate. "If anyone in this world can do this, then you are the only one."

"Why am I special?" Ashu Rufate asked.
