Fulilian: Becomes a disciple of Celia at the beginning

"We were able to defeat a powerful enemy."

“It is possible to protect the safety of residents in the rear.”

“I was able to marry the girl I loved after the war”

Before the troops set out, the captain of the guards with pigtails stood in front of a portrait of the "Goddess", clasped his hands together, and prayed devoutly.

"Come on."

Saidat, standing by, curled his lips and grumbled at his friend's prayer, "You two have seven or eight-year-old children, and you still want to have another wedding?"

"Isn't it possible?"

"Anyway, there's no rule that says you can only marry your wife once."

Two days later, at the camp on the border of [Castel].

Before the troops set out, Duncan conducted a pre-war mobilization for the soldiers as usual, and invited Saidat, a "combat hero" who was highly respected by the soldiers, to give a speech on stage.

This was a battle to defend the country, so there was no need for any oratory skills to mobilize the soldiers' emotions.

Just by simply stating what the Demons had done in the past and describing the different outcomes of victory and defeat in this battle, the fighting spirit of the soldiers below the stage naturally rose.

After finishing his own speech, Saidat walked down the podium amid the cheers of the soldiers and returned the mobilization role to Duncan.

After stepping down, Saidat went around in circles but still couldn't find his old friend.

I then guessed that the guard leader had probably gone to the room where the portrait of the "Goddess" was hanging.

Sure enough, after Sayyidat sneaked out of the mobilization site, he saw his old friend praying devoutly in the room.

"Goddess, please protect your devout believers."

"."

"I was able to marry the girl I loved after the war."

Saidat couldn't help but complain about his old friend's prayer.

Hearing the low voice of the "single dog" behind him, the captain of the guards did not get angry. He temporarily interrupted the ceremony and smiled as he reasoned with Sayyidat.

"My girl loves me deeply and loves the romantic form of a wedding. As a husband, I must do my best to satisfy her."

"After we win this tough battle, will you come over and be my best man again?"

"Of course you can. I've done it more than a dozen times anyway." Saidat did not reject his old friend's request, but added a sentence immediately afterwards.

"But let's make it clear in advance that I won't give any gifts to you this time you get married. I can't afford it anymore."

"Ha ha-"

"It doesn't matter whether you have that kind of thing or not, as long as you're here."

After saying this, the captain of the guards continued to recite the rest of the prayer, and ended the prayer with his head bowed deeply after a few minutes.

"You two, the mobilization ceremony is over. Get ready to follow the main force."

Duncan's flat voice came from outside the door.

Apparently, the commander of the army discovered these two "deserters" and came looking for them.

"Ah."

Saidat and the other man had no objection to this, nodded, and walked out of the house.

However, just as the few people passed by each other, Duncan suddenly called out to the captain of the guards and asked.

"Did your prayers before the battle work?"

"Of course." The captain of the guards patted his chest and said confidently.

"Every time I faced a difficult battle, I would pray to the Goddess and make a wish that I would return alive and remarry my wife."

"Perhaps it was the goddess's blessing; or perhaps it was a vow to return alive and marry his wife;"

"I experienced countless dangers on the battlefield, big and small, but I finally made it through alive. Every time the war ended, I could go home and face my wife's loving embrace."

“It works so well.”

Duncan looked at the portrait of the "Goddess" in the house, hesitated for a moment, stepped into the house, clasped his hands together, and bowed his head to pray.

"Goddess, I hope you can bless Lektire's health and make her better."

After saying that, Duncan bowed deeply and paid tribute to the goddess.

"Wouldn't you like to ask for a few more things? The goddess is very generous."

"No."

Duncan shook his head. "With so many believers praying every day, I want my wish to be shorter so the Goddess can see it sooner."

"As for the remaining wishes, I can do it myself."

"After all, the commander of the army cannot pin his hopes of victory on the protection of the gods."

That night.

The dim moonlight made the wilderness pitch black, but in a village not far from the border, there were bright lights.

However, the people living in the houses in the village were not the original villagers, but well-trained soldiers.

As early as two days ago, Duncan, who had formulated a combat strategy, sent people to transfer the residents of the village one after another, and gradually replaced them with elite soldiers of the advance team to live in the houses. The purpose was to maintain the original human atmosphere in the village, and to dig some ambush fortifications in advance.

Now, the main force of the camp has arrived at the snowfield surrounding the village. They only need to restrain their movements and magical reactions and wait silently for the demons to take the bait.

Following Duncan's instructions, the soldiers had made special gaps and "omissions" in the border line.

[Demons] can only quickly cross the border line by breaking through in the direction of the current village.

If the [Demons] sensed something unusual and did not choose to break through along this line, then the thick and tight border defenses in other directions would be able to hold out until the border troops returned.

At that time, we will simply lose the advantage of ambush and have to fight an encounter battle.

On the snowy plain, Duncan ordered the soldiers to arrive at the corresponding ambush points in batches according to the tactical arrangements given.

Duncan's tactics were simple to say, which was to lure the [Demon General] and his subordinates into the village first.

As long as the elite advance troops and ambush fortifications in the village can withstand the first wave of attacks from the demons.

Then the main force of the troops ambushed in the surrounding area can complete the encirclement, and then separate these demons one by one, and order the corresponding formations to deal with the subordinates of the [Demon General], while the main force headed by Duncan and Sayidat will launch a saturation attack on the [Demon General].

After seeing all the soldiers fall silent around him, Duncan, the commander of the army, turned around and walked towards the village under the snow.

"Lord Duncan, what are you doing?!"

The captain of the guards with pigtails was startled and wanted to chase after him to ask questions, but he was unexpectedly held down by his old friend.

"Saidat, what's happening to Lord Duncan?" The puzzled captain of the guards had no choice but to ask his old friend.

"The pressure from the [Demon General] and his subordinates in the first wave of the charge was too great. Duncan was worried that the advance troops in the village wouldn't be able to withstand it, so after making all the arrangements as commander, he also added himself, a [Palace-level] magician soldier, to the charge."

"Is this so"

"I really didn't expect that."

Time passed by minute by second in this quiet atmosphere, and the prey that everyone was waiting for finally jumped out of the water composed of the dark night, took the bait, and launched a surprise attack on the village where ambushes were set up.

"boom!!!"

As a violent bombardment smashed the village gate, several demons took advantage of the night and rushed straight into the village.

However, the reality was beyond their expectations.

After smashing down the doors of the houses, what they saw were no longer the frightened expressions of humans as before, but elite soldiers wearing armor and holding guns.

What they heard were no longer screams of fear, but the whistling of spears piercing the air and the sound of traps tightening after accidentally stepping on them.

In an instant, many demons were injured, and even one demon that broke into the house where Duncan was ambushing had turned into ashes and disappeared.

"Are you going to do it?!"

The soldiers lying in ambush outside the village were immediately cheered up when they saw the scene below.

They all looked at the captain of the guards who was still lurking, waiting for him to give the order to attack.

"No, no rush!"

Although the captain of the guards was calm, his words revealed a hint of anxiety.

Of course, he wanted to lead his soldiers to attack immediately, but there was one target that he could not find among the [Demons] who were invading the village below.

That is the target of this encirclement and suppression operation - [Demon General].

"Damn it, where is it?"

The guard leader was so angry that he kept pounding the ground. Every second the main force delayed, the companions below would be in more danger.

But if they fail to encircle the Demon General and destroy him, then no matter how many victories they achieve, it will all be a failure.

It won't take long to gather the subordinates, and the anger of the [Demon General] after being ambushed will be retaliated exponentially on this land in the rear.

If you don't kill with one strike, you will definitely suffer from it.

Therefore, the more this situation becomes, the more the captain of the guards and the other troop commanders must control their emotions and control their subordinates who want to launch a charge.

"How can you really endure it? Why don't you show up?"

A few more minutes passed, and the captain of the guards, who was nervously watching the situation below, became more and more anxious. The situation of his comrades below was already becoming difficult.

After the initial confusion, the [Demons] reacted and gained a firm foothold, gradually regaining control of the battle.

If this continues, it won't be long before the [Demons] gain the upper hand and start slaughtering the warriors in the village.

Suddenly, the captain of the guards who was observing the situation below felt a chill in his heart and his hair stood on end.

He looked up and suddenly found that in the deep night, an inhuman figure had leaped into the air and was about to swing a knife towards where he was.

[Demon General] is here!!!

There was no time to think about how the [Demon General] knew the location of their ambush.

With the crazy surge of adrenaline in his body, the captain of the guards' breathing rate became faster and deeper, and a huge amount of oxygen was delivered to his lungs at an extremely fast speed, providing all the metabolic needs of the body in the emergency state.

The enlarged pupil allows more light to enter the eye, and with the increase in visual sensitivity, everything around seems to slow down.

The captain of the guards reacted quickly and immediately rolled to the side to get out of the attack range of the [Demon General].

However, just as he was about to take action, he caught a glimpse of Sayyidat beside him, who was also within the attack range of the [Demon General].
