The Extraordinary Earl

Chapter 65 Advance and Retreat

Night!

The forest in the daytime is a little scary, because the tall trees and the leaves on the branches make the trees seem like hands covering the sky, and the whole forest is shrouded in shadows.

The forest in the night is even more terrifying.

Because it is really dark, and you can't see your fingers.

Only the autumn wind blows slowly through the branches and leaves, making a ghost-like sound.

Luther's camp.

The stream next to it flows slowly, making a gurgling sound. Several bonfires were lit in the camp to drive away wild beasts. There were ten guards on guard in the light and dark.

These are the elites trained by Old Thor for many years, and they are very reliable. Five hounds were placed around the camp. These black Prussian hounds were very alert, with their ears erected, and they looked up from time to time.

The knights were all in their tents.

"Woof woof woof!"

Suddenly, several Prussian hounds made a rapid barking sound, and then stood up with their front paws forward and their tails erected, showing a vigilant look.

These Prussian hounds are very brave, and they dare to drive away even the black wild boars. But at this moment, from their alert posture, a little timidity can be seen.

They seem to be strong on the outside but weak on the inside.

With the alarm issued by the Prussian hounds, the guards in the light and dark immediately widened their eyes and drew their arrows to shoot.

The guards who were resting in the tent and preparing for rotation also reacted quickly, rushed out of the tent, picked up their weapons and were on guard.

Correction Knight, Xiu Xiuya also came out.

Both of them were wearing pajamas and preparing to go to bed. At this moment, they had no time to put on clothes, so they picked up their knight swords and walked out.

"What's the situation?" Xiu Xiuya asked calmly.

"I don't know what the situation is, but the hounds started barking." A guard replied. The guards were very calm, not only because they were elite, but also because there were three powerful knights in the camp at this time.

Knight.

This is the power to stabilize the morale of the army.

Xiu Xiuya frowned, and the Knight of Correction tightened the knight's sword in his hand. He said to Xiu Xiuya: "The Prussian hounds are brave and good at fighting. If they were ordinary wild beasts, they would have rushed up long ago. Now they are just barking and not rushing up. Obviously, we have encountered a monster."

Monster!

The solemnity in the air suddenly became three points thicker, as if the temperature had dropped a little. Many guards swallowed their saliva.

Obviously, everyone knew what a monster meant.

Xiu Xiuya exhaled, and his judgment was the same as that of the Knight of Correction. "I'll go ask Knight Luther."

Monster!

This is a beast that has the power of a knight and the magic of a wizard, so it is called a monster. What's more terrifying is that this beast has a certain amount of wisdom.

Some monsters are even smarter than ordinary humans, such as the legendary dragon, which should be considered the top monster.

But no human dares to call them monsters, they can only be called dragons.

Ordinary magic beasts, from low to high, are divided into primary magic beasts, intermediate magic beasts, and advanced magic beasts, corresponding to the ranks of knights.

But in fact, this is just the knights flattering themselves.

Because there are a few records that before the rise of humans, they were the food and prey of these magic beasts. Then with the development of fighting spirit and magic, humans can occupy the dominant position in the world.

So the reason why humans have the ranks of primary knights, intermediate knights, and advanced knights is because magic beasts have these levels.

In addition.

Magic beasts are stronger than knights.

Although a primary knight is theoretically of the same level and rank as a primary magic beast. But in actual operation, only a very small number of people can kill magic beasts at the same level.

Maybe among a hundred knights, not necessarily one knight can kill a magic beast of the same level alone.

Because this involves,

The depth of one's own fighting spirit.

Whether the physical strength is strong or not.

Whether the combat skills are proficient.

Whether the combat experience is much or little.

Whether the fighting spirit secret technique is advanced.

And other factors.

Therefore, a universally acknowledged principle in the Kingdom of Prussia is that if a knight can kill a monster at the same level, then he is a genius.

So generally speaking, to confront a primary monster, you need at least three knights of the same level. And currently in the camp, Luther, Xiuxiua, and the Correction Knight just make up three.

Whether to attack or retreat, there is room for maneuver.

Xiuxiua is a vassal of Pompeii for generations, so naturally he takes Luther as the main one and asks Luther's opinion. And in his heart, Xiuxiua does not want Luther to take risks.

In Luther's tent.

Luther and Miss Ruth have just finished a bottle of red wine, mainly because Luther drinks it. He can't taste wine, he can only drink it gurglingly.

It is commonly known as country people drinking red wine.

So a bottle of red wine quickly runs out.

Miss Ruth drank a glass of wine, Luther was not drunk, but Miss Ruth had a slight reaction, and her snow-white cheeks were flushed and her big eyes were watery.

It made her a little more charming.

As a noble, being able to drink is the most basic skill. Obviously Miss Ruth is not good enough in this skill.

Looking at Miss Ruth's delicate face, Luther gradually only had the fiery red lips in his eyes. Miss Ruth's red lips were a little thick and very textured.

This is a common situation for Europeans and Americans.

Very tempting.

Luther couldn't help but kiss her, and they separated as soon as they touched. It was so soft.

Luther smacked his lips, feeling the aftertaste, and his pores were all open, so cool.

Miss Ruth hadn't reacted yet, she only felt her lips getting hot, and it took several seconds for her to react, her face was burning like an apple, so cute.

"Luther!" Miss Ruth said with a little shyness.

Then Miss Ruth planned to get up and run away, her heart was beating, and she was thinking in a panic.

Luther wouldn't plan to do anything.

There are too many guards here, and Xiu Xiuya and Xiu Zheng are both knights, so their hearing will be very sharp.

Not as good as last night.

Hey!

Why would I think so?

Miss Ruth was very embarrassed, and wanted to escape from here. She was so flustered that she even overturned the small table in front of the two of them and almost fell to the ground.

At this time, Luther hugged Miss Ruth in his arms, and the touch was also soft. Among the girls, her advantage is very obvious.

Plump!

However, at this time, the sound of barking dogs sounded, and Luther's face changed. He said to Miss Ruth: "Stay here first, I'll go out and take a look."

"Yeah."

Just like a basin of cold water poured down, Miss Ruth also calmed down a lot and nodded obediently.

When Luther walked out of the tent, he saw Xiu Xiuya coming towards him. Xiu Xiuya knelt on one knee in front of Luther and said: "Sir Knight, I and the Correction Knight agree that there is a monster hiding nearby. I think for your safety, we should retreat first."

Luther couldn't help but change his color slightly.

No one is born strong.

What's more, Luther had only received knight training before, and became a physical superman in the eyes of modern people.

But just like soldiers who have never been on the battlefield are called rookies, Luther is a knight.

Besides, although Luther is determined to become a great noble, he also knows that a great noble needs his own military force. He has never heard of a great noble being an ordinary person.

This is the unspoken rule of the Kingdom of Prussia.

But this does not mean that Luther must experience fighting.

Luther actually hopes to have high-level military power, become a great noble, and then send his subordinates to be gentle lords when there is something going on.

Rather than a battle maniac.

He doesn't want to be Old Thor.

So this time, the knights organized by Pompeii went deep into the forest to fight monsters and gather intelligence, but Luther did not go. Instead, he picked up girls here.

So now, whether to advance or retreat, you have to think about it.
