Chapter 1614: Kalydon Mercenary Group (Ⅱ)

The weapons of other hill giants are big clubs, but this bald man is carrying a battle axe, and a tower shield is slung across his back. The shield depicts a lifelike head of a lion.

With just one glance, Joan realized that the bald man's battle ax and tower shield, as well as the pair of long wristbands on his arms, were all advanced magic equipment!

There is another peculiarity about this person. He is the only knight in the entire Calydonian mercenary group. The mount under his crotch is not a war horse, but a red-haired wild boar as huge as an elephant with a pair of scimitar-like fangs!

Joan didn't recognize the bald giant, but he was very familiar with the wild boar riding under the giant's crotch. It was clearly a "razor boar"!

This scene couldn't help but surprise Joan.

He originally thought that only the Wild Boar Island near Leiden Harbor could produce this kind of tyrannical monster with supernatural blood. It seemed that he was ignorant. It turned out that there were Razor Boars on Calydon Island, and they were domesticated into mounts by the hill giants. But I don't know if there is a "Prince Razor" that is more ferocious than the razor boar in the local area.

There are more than 300 hill giant mercenaries, only the bald man is qualified to ride the razor boar. Judging by his arrogant demeanor, he must be the leader of this mercenary group.

Since Queen Huaia was not here, Joan naturally came up with a guess that the bald giant leading the Calydon mercenary group should be Queen Huaia's younger brother and right-hand man, General Bolsson.

Joan activated the "Advanced Internal Vision Technique" with a hint of curiosity, and peeped at the bald giant through Swift's eyes.

...

Scouting Target: Adult male hill giant/warrior 13 (large giant, aberration subspecies)

Attributes: Strength 33, Dexterity 10, Constitution 24, Intelligence 10, Wisdom 12, Charisma 13

Special ability: unknown

...

Strange subspecies? !

Joan was secretly surprised.

This hill giant actually had a dominant strange bloodline, which really shocked him!

Hill giants and strange monsters, these two types of creatures are completely irreconcilable. How did the bald macho combine these two bloodlines into one body?

From the surface, this guy has no obvious strange features. Where does this dominant blood come from?

Joan subconsciously touched the deformed eyeball on the back of his neck that symbolized the strange blood, which was the "Different Eye Seal" from the "Holy Mother", and the confusion in his eyes gradually turned into enlightenment.

He recalled what Lord Custis had said that Huaia, the hill giant queen of the Calydon tribe, was also a descendant of the "Holy Mother" and likely possessed the "Saint Barb Seal".

The bald mountain giant below with a level 13 "Warrior" profession has reached the quasi-legendary level in strength, and he is by no means an unknown person.

If Joan's predictions are correct, the bald man must be Queen Huaia's brother Bolsson, and it is very likely that, like his sister, he also has the strange bloodline from the "Holy Mother".

Joan turned his attention to the bald giant again, and carefully observed his naked upper body. The thick and exuberant body hair of the other party faintly exuded magical fluctuations, which aroused his suspicion.

He suspected that the bald giant possessed the "Barb Holy Seal", but just looking at his chest hair, he couldn't see how powerful this Holy Seal was.

Just as he was looking down, the bald giant suspected of Bolsom suddenly raised his head, watching the flock of birds hovering above his head vigilantly.

Not long after, two Feizhen army mages in long robes rushed over from the front.

The bald giant went up to meet them, whispered to the two accompanying mages, and sometimes raised his head to point at the birds in the sky.

Seeing this scene, Joan immediately realized that the bald giant had become suspicious of the flock of birds circling above him.

Joan slowly opened his eyes and sighed regretfully.

He hasn't fully figured out the details of the bald giant yet.

In addition, Joan also noticed that the bald giant was followed by four mysterious guards.

All four of them are 12 feet tall, taller than an adult hill giant. The strange thing is that all four of them are wearing black cloaks, and every inch of their skin from head to toe is completely covered by the cloth.

Joan couldn't see the true faces of the four black-clothed giants, so he could only guess from their stiff walking steps that their legs and feet were not very flexible.

Putting aside his suspicions for the time being, Joan transcribed the information he had just obtained from the investigation and reported it to Lord Custis.

On the first day when he came to the front line, Joan's main job in the morning was to collect intelligence and then report to the headquarters.

After eating simple marching rations at noon, Qiao An was notified to help the civilian men recruited from nearby villages and towns build barracks.

Among the spellcasters who followed the army to the front line, some of them are good at engineering spells, such as Joan, who owns a "Stone Shaping Wand" and is also proficient in engineering spells such as "Stone Shaping" and "Secondary Supernatural Workmanship". The role played on the construction site far exceeds those of the laborers.

After an afternoon of joint efforts by all the officers, soldiers, civilians, and casters accompanying the army, neat rows of barracks were built on the battlefield. Ordinary soldiers lived collectively in "squads", while officers and spellcasters enjoyed the preferential treatment of single barracks. .

This whole day was busy from morning to night, even though Joan was very tired, she still got up on time to take a shower the next morning as usual.

After spending half an hour meditating and preparing the spells that might be used today, Joan walked out of the barracks.

Before going to the officers' mess for breakfast, he would spend an hour practicing fencing, as he had always done at school.

Now when he comes to the front line, unless the war is tense and time does not allow, he still insists on waking up early to exercise every day, and does not want to change his life pattern easily.

The woods near the station were almost completely cut down. As materials for building the barracks, Joan wandered around for a while before finding a secluded area.

Showing off the rune sword, Joan practiced swordsmanship sternly.

Because he was too focused, at first he didn't notice that someone was approaching quietly behind him, until he suddenly heard a girl's snicker.

Joan retracted his sword and turned around, staring at the short-haired beauty with a narrow smile on his face, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

"Slude, when did you come?"

"It's not long since I came here." Slude raised his hand to brush his hair that was blown by the morning wind, "I went to your barracks first, and found that you were not in the room, so I followed the footprints at the door to find you. I didn't expect you to start practicing swordsmanship early in the morning, which is not something a mage should do."

"Yesterday you said that I should exercise more and practice swordsmanship. Isn't that also a kind of exercise?" Joan asked back.

"That's what I said, but I can see that your swordsmanship foundation is solid, and your moves are very methodical. Obviously, there are many famous teachers to guide you, and you have put in a lot of hard work."

Sluder asserted sternly.

"If it's just for exercise, as a mage, you don't need to spend so much energy on swordsmanship, after all, this is not your main job!"

It's the end of the month, please ask for two monthly tickets, thank you
