Sean and others evacuated quickly.
The Cecilia guards were already on standby at the back of the highland.
After they settled Burrell's troops last night, they immediately moved here, and then camped here until the morning. As the most powerful force in the war, the consumption of Cecilia guards is not small. Although only one person was killed in the battle, many people were actually injured. Even though TiNi received a lot of divine grace later, and her divine power has improved. In addition, the goddess of ice and snow and winter is not famous for her healing skills, and TiNi is still a combat God, Nature can't treat so many people.
Therefore, the method adopted is mainly physical therapy, supplemented by divine therapy.
Fortunately, Cecilia's guards came from mercenaries and were very familiar with this treatment, so many injuries stopped at once, which not only stopped bleeding immediately, but also prevented the deterioration of the injury, which saved Tina a lot of effort. The remaining problems are the temporary weakness caused by blood loss and the lack of immediate and rapid nutrition due to environmental factors.
But after a night's rest, these guys are still in good spirits. As for the bear people and the northern barbarians who did not participate in the battle, their state is not much better. In fact, if Sean really plans to launch a surprise attack, all the northern barbarians will go to battle as the main force except Cecilia guards, but even so, the number is only about 300.
So at the moment, when Sean decided not to launch a raid but to let the whole army retreat, the rest troops immediately began to withdraw from here.
It was only ten seconds before and after that, and the whole army had already set out.
At this time, it happened that the wolf and others found that Sean's team was evacuating, so they decided to attack. But when the wolf arranged to lead 700 people to attack, Sean and others had evacuated two or three hundred meters away. For fear of losing the trace of Sean and others, the whole army began to march again, which inevitably exacerbated the physical consumption of the whole army again.
When the wolf led the crowd to the terrain, she was surprised to find that it was not a flat terrain, but a highland with cliffs!
For a time, the three strong men looked at each other.
The wolf only hesitated for half a second, and his whole body was full of momentum. The hem of his cloak was constantly swinging by the strong wind. At the next moment, the wolf's right foot stepped fiercely, and the whole person jumped to a height of more than ten meters. Then the left foot stepped in vain, and his body shape rose more than ten meters again. After repeating this twice or three times, the wolf had jumped to the top of the high ground of the cliff and looked coldly ahead.
Two or three hundred meters away from the highland, a small force is rapidly withdrawing to the northwest.
The next second, the wolf quickly swept the surrounding terrain and found that the terrain here was really bad, because it was very hidden. If it weren't for them, these golden giants would have been very sensitive to breath, and the realization was completely on guard, I'm afraid it would be really difficult to find someone hiding here. At the moment, if the wolf wants to continue to order the pursuit, it is necessary to let the troops start to the right and bypass the cliff, but the straight-line distance from Sean's troops will be more than 500 meters.
However, the terrain of the wilderness has never been flat, but there will be many complex terrain, and it is often impossible to move forward in a straight line.
In other words, it is impossible to catch up with Sean's army in a short time. Moreover, if the other party finds the pursuit of wolves and others, I'm afraid that if Sean and others want to escape, the pursuit time will be longer, perhaps for a day or two. But now, the wolf knows that the winter wolf has died, and Rena has broken through the positional defense combined by the three trade points. She may support Sean at any time. At that time, she will really have no chance to kill Sean.
What the wolf was worried about was not what Sean thought. Because of the lack of troops, he was worried about Rena meeting him. The real reason is that she knows that Reina's troops are light cavalry troops. Of course, the movement speed of this kind of troops is faster than that of cavalry. Even in the wild, if she wants to run with all her strength, the infantry she brings will never catch up. Under normal circumstances, if a Lord is in danger and then a cavalry force comes to support, anyway, The Lord must have gone first.
So in fact, what the wolf is really worried about is Sean riding away, so she can't kill Sean.
At the thought of the punishment of the third young master of the nugus family, the wolf shivered.
Soon, the wolf jumped down from the cliff again, then ordered one of the golden strongmen, and said in a deep voice, "Joe, you hurry back immediately, and then all the others except the wounded and 500 left behind troops I'll leave a mark for you along the way. You must follow up as quickly as possible. "
Hearing the wolf's decisive arrangement, the golden strongman named Joe was stunned: "is this necessary?"
"You have heard that Rena has broken through and the winter wolf has been killed, so the other two trade points certainly dare not continue to rush after." At this point, the wolf has felt a flame burning in his body, "maybe these two guys may give up chasing and shrink back to their trade point And I have a vague intuition that Sean and Rena must be connected, so they will meet before the morning of the day after tomorrow at the latest. At that time, we can't intercept it only by our strength, but if you can form a siege and support at that time, the situation will be completely different. "
Hearing what the wolf said, Joe immediately understood.
Wolf itself is a very cunning person. What she is best at is attack tactics and beheading tactics. Therefore, she must be very rich in experience similar to pursuit warfare at the moment. And even if this point is abandoned, even if their troops, strong men and even people at several trade points are pieced together by several families, the wolf is also the top person in charge of the retaliation against Sean this time. Everyone must obey her orders under non critical error factors.
Of course, more importantly, she is the strongest person in the whole team whose personal strength is second only to Burrell.
When Joe woke up, he didn't say anything, but immediately turned and left.
The camp they are stationed in is only about half a day away from here. If he speeds up, he may be able to return to the camp before noon to rest for two hours. After that, he can start immediately before the evening. As long as the wolf's pursuit is relatively smooth and there is no such event as running thousands of miles, he may be able to meet the wolf and complete this task by tomorrow night at the latest.
After seeing Joe leave, the wolf no longer said anything, but said in a deep voice in the face of 700 soldiers and another gold strongman: "you have seen the danger of the situation, so I don't intend to say anything more Before noon, we must find a cool place to rest. At the same time, we must firmly bite the tail of Sean's army and never let the other party stay away from us! "
"Yes!"
Soon, the army was left with only two gold giants and 700 soldiers.
However, at this time, their morale was at its highest, their fatigue disappeared completely, and the vitality of the whole army immediately took on a new look. But the only one who has different views on this is another subordinate gold strongman, Jon. He knows that the morale of this army looks very good now, but because he has been on the road all night and worked all morning, there is not enough food now. If they can't bite Sean's army before the afternoon, It's not a good thing for them.
But before saying this, the whole army began to move forward under the leadership of the wolf.
As the wolf estimated, when the army bypassed the cliff, their straight-line distance from Sean was indeed more than 500 meters. But if they want to catch up with Sean's troops, they can't do it in an hour, because they must return to the high ground before they can pursue. In this way, it will take longer, and it will be noon soon. If we march strongly at this temperature, I'm afraid the number of non combat personnel will be reduced by more than 100, which is not an acceptable result for wolves.
So after bypassing the Highlands, the distance between the wolf and Sean and others was more than kilometers. In this regard, the wolf can only order the troops to start looking for a cool back sun, otherwise it is really too dangerous in the wilderness.
But I don't know if the world will be against the wolf.
When noon finally began to come, the wolves had not found any shady place to rest. Under the high temperature of nearly 50 degrees, the negative situation of the whole army soon began to be exposed. The fatigue caused by long-time travel, work and lack of food broke out completely, and then coupled with the water shortage caused by the high temperature, this is not something that ordinary people can bear.
The last thing wolves want to see is non combat attrition, which finally begins to deteriorate.
……
At this time, Sean and others, who had found a shady and sunny place, were eating dry food and resting.
"It's really lucky to find here when noon is coming." Andre took a sip of water and said happily.
"Then you don't thank Sean." Cecilia said, "if Sean hadn't dropped his necklace and wanted to look for it, we wouldn't be able to find it here Unexpectedly, this place doesn't seem strange, but there is such a depression that the ground just blocks the exposure of the hot sun The wilderness is indeed a magical place. "
"Maybe that's why this necklace is called a lucky necklace." Sean said, holding a golden necklace with a faint red light, "I don't know why. When I hold this necklace, I always feel like I'm being stared at by something. But I have checked the situation around me, but there is no danger at all, which makes me feel a little strange. "
"Is it a necklace or something?" Cecilia said curiously, "didn't you say this necklace would bring you luck?"
"Yes, but..." Sean wondered: is the situation of luck in the real world different from that in the game? And if you can find this shade, is luck playing a role? And in retrospect, it seemed inexplicable before. Because the sudden fever of the necklace made him feel a burst of irritability, he didn't order a raid on the army returning to the camp. That's why he lost all the lucky Necklace later.
Now that everything comes to mind, Sean has an illusion. Is luck also an embodiment of the law of the world? Even the will of the world itself?
