#317 - Chapter 317: Visions in the Army
In the world of trials.
"Lord Titus!"
"We have destroyed the target territory!"
A stout dwarf, missing half his face, the healed side twisted into a hideous visage, entered Titus's resting chamber, proudly recounting his achievements.
"Hehe!"
"That damned human lord, though he resisted fiercely."
"We still overwhelmed him with numbers, directly crushing his three lines of defense."
"More importantly, we not only destroyed his defenses, but also plundered a large amount of food and goods before his army collapsed."
"Among these items are medicines and clothing."
"In short, it was a great harvest!"
"Good, I understand."
Although Titus answered so calmly.
In reality, Titus was gritting his teeth, having a one-legged blood relative pull a half-meter long silver war spear from his chest.
Whoosh!
With a whooshing sound.
The broken silver war spear, along with a mass of blackened and purplish flesh, came out of Titus's chest.
Titus groaned, heavily panting for breath.
But such a terrifying injury was not fatal to him.
He simply smeared on some simple hemostatic agent, bandaged it up, and stood up.
"So, what are our casualties?"
"And the most important thing."
"Did the allied army of those human lords catch us attacking, or rather, pursue us?"
"Of course not, and the losses were pitifully small!"
The dwarf laughed with half his face.
"Those beastly stupid human lords are almost a mess in terms of cooperation."
"Their command is so chaotic that even goblins would despise it."
"After we plundered and destroyed that lord's territory, we fled before they arrived."
"However, Lord Titus."
"They have not given up the pursuit."
"Although our lightly equipped escape speed is much faster than theirs."
"They will still arrive at our base camp in a few hours."
"And we may need to escape again."
Speaking of which, the dwarf's tone became a lot lower.
It seems.
Although these alien races are very happy on the surface.
But in fact, after only two days of fighting, they can no longer withstand the human allied forces on the front battlefield.
In a situation where one side has no reinforcements and the other side does.
They will be wiped out by the other side sooner or later.
Not only this dwarf and Titus, but almost all alien races with reasonable intelligence understand this very well.
"It doesn't matter..."
"Anyway, we've already made a profit."
"A few days ago, we were slaves doing hard labor in prison, but today, we are holding weapons and teaching the lords of the empire a lesson."
"Every human lord's soldier we kill is a profit."
Titus comforted the other party.
By the way, Titus had personally been on the battlefield several times in these two days.
Although he won every time, or at least repelled the empire's hero units that came to fight, he still suffered considerable injuries.
For example, the broken spear in his chest.
Came from a short-haired human lord named Lisno.
If he hadn't been lucky, and the broken spear only pierced one of his hearts, then this blow might have ended his life.
The reason why he worked so hard, in addition to seeking revenge on the empire, the most important thing was to let his companions live a little longer.
Even if it's only a few days.
But that's enough for him....
But just as he thought so.
Bad news was conveyed to Titus's ears through the dwarf's mouth.
"Although I don't want to say this, Lord Titus, I must tell you something."
"Speak."
No matter how bad the news was, Titus had expected it in his mind.
However, even so, when Titus heard the dwarf's words, his expression was still a little strange.
"Lord Titus."
"Large-scale slaughter has begun to occur in our army."
"However, this slaughter is not just a simple venting of anger."
"Because those who have done these things are all talking about one thing."
"That is, the reason why they do this is because they want to join a terrible organization...."
"An organization called the Abyss Sect!"
