Iron Blood Conquers Expansion 608

Chapter 608 - Chapter 608 Surprise Attack-3

An army of 13,000 marching towards the giant of Barota, Lucoru.
A dense forest appeared in front of him.
With the forest ahead, the Red Union paused for a moment.

It's a day's drive to Lukoru, and if there's an ambush or a night raid, it'll be from this point.
Cheon-ho also considered that and approached Ji-ha.

"Why are you coming to me?"

Jiha, who got off the horse and was sitting on the grass, smiled.
The underground scene, leisurely looking down at the map, seemed peaceful.
He doesn't look like a man who has been through countless battles and wars.
Cheonho asked calmly.

"What do you think of the forest ahead of you?"
"You've got all the power and wielded it hard, what do you ask me? Are you going to cheat?"

Jiha deliberately let Cheonho lead the army at will.
He never really transferred command, but Cheon-ho acted like he was the commander, and Ji-ha stepped back and didn't say anything.
Since Jiha remained silent, everyone followed, assuming that Cheonho had been entrusted with leadership by Jiha.
I kept getting results, so there was no need to stop it.

"It is not the time to play. A bastard named Barota, although he's a mischievous bastard, if he's good enough to secure a spot in the city federation, he'll have his own kicks. If you want to stop our army from a long way, you'll try to touch it at this point. Moreover, this area will be known to them, so it is not good to enter it carelessly. Why don't we first take out 3,000 troops and thoroughly investigate the forest?"
"Are you scared?"
"... You look down on this body and try to provoke it. Don't play shallow, Underworld God."

When Cheon-ho looked straight, Ji-ha smiled.
Indeed, there will be pitfalls. Because I also had information about Belany.
Ji-ha was trying to see how Cheon-ho would respond to it and how it would come out.
Underground's purpose is to tame and subjugate his subordinates while fighting against the enemy.

'It's better to use Barota's trap and hold down Cheonho's Yeki at this opportunity. It's better to take it if you calculate it like this. The problem is the details...'

Shall we give the information to Cheonho or not?

"Excuse me..."

The woman who had approached blankly interrupted the conversation between the two.
Chen Ho frowned and looked back.
She was never a place where she and her underground could talk, where those below her would intervene.

"What... Oh, a pretty off-white girl."

It was Vissel, an officer of the Red Union.
Chun-ho looked at her blank expression and nodded her head loudly to see if he liked her.
Without hesitation, she grabs Bissell's chin and turns it around to lick her upper lip.

"Yeah, I really like it. How are you? Tonight in this body's bed..."
"Are you out of habit?"
"... Tsk."

Chun-ho came to his senses at the point of the basement. Chun-ho licked her lips and removed her hand from Vissel's chin.
Actually, Vissel himself was still looking at her basement with a blank face.

"Something to say... I have."
"Say."
"Important... I did."
"Yes, you go and wait."

Ji-ha beckoned Cheon-ho, and her face was very annoyed.
Who told her former ruler of the Blue Seal to come and go with just one gesture like this?
Now, her blue seal is gone, but a legend is a legend, and even inside the Red Union, no one could easily see her.
The only thing that can do this is underground.

"Hmph, being a bitch during the war is good."

Chun-ho turned around and walked away with a sarcastic smirk.
He had just seen and coveted Bissell, and the accusation was completely inconsistent, but it was meaningless to point out.
Cheonho has a large emotional amplitude, so logical contradictions happen all the time.

"So what?"
"This forest... Different."
"That would be different."

Because there is a trap of Barota.
Bissell shook his head slowly.

"Very... It's different. The smell of the forest has become strange. It has become more sinister and shady. You can't go in."

Underground's face became serious.
It's not about taking pictures, it's about knowing for real.

"Tell me in detail."
"Me too... I don't know exactly. The flow of magical power has changed. The forest doesn't breathe like this. I can only explain it like that. There seems to be a fellow tribesman, but they are very strange and hostile. As far as I know, it has never been like this."
"There are enemies in this forest? Maybe something different?"
"... Yes."

Bissell nodded slowly.
His face was always blank, even now, but with a slightly worried expression.

"If you go in like this, you will be attacked."
"How to stop it?"

As for the ambush, I read the underground passage.
However, what Bissell gives is unexpected information.

"I don't know... I could talk about it, but I'm not confident."
"What if I set fire to the forest?"
"... It will all burn."

Bissell said sadly.
The meaning of fire is through, Jiha said calmly.

"Do you know more about this forest?"
"First... I'm coming."
"Then do you know the shortest way out of the forest?"
"To know... I have."
"What are you?"

The basement suddenly asked.
As you can see Vissel talking so easily, it couldn't have been a normal rare grade.

"Bysel... Arcadium."
"Apart from your name, did you grow up in a forest village from your childhood? Or are you not human?"

Bissell, whom Jiha knows, is a man in his early 20s, a bookworm.
However, what Vissel sees now is only possible with special experiences or special abilities.

"Allaune... It is."
"Did you say it was a flower spirit?"

It was a race that had only heard the name of the underpass.
It is said that they are fairies living in the forest, but there is no traveler who meets them and returns safely.
All clues that she was a beautiful woman were rumors, but the truth was unknown.
In any case, it is a race that has never appeared in the foreground of Wordsland's history.

"Similar but... It's a little different."
"Ignore the details. You are Alaune, so you noticed an anomaly in the forest. Is this?"
"Yes."

Vissel's speech was slow, but she listened calmly to the basement.
A usable picture came to mind.

"You said you could go in and try to convince them, but you said you couldn't succeed, right? Then don't do it. Probably won't work Enemies have already polluted this forest."
"Pollution... What?"
"You should see it that way. To eat our troops."

Jiha nodded and gestured to the soldier standing guard from afar.

"Go and call Cheonho again. And you sit next to me."

Jiha made Vissel sit next to her and organized her thoughts.
Then Bissell asked slowly.

"Doubt... Don't you?"
"Araune, or that the forest is a trap?"
"Entire... Everything."

Thanks to Bellani's information, the basement already knew that the forest in front of it was a trap.
And I already guessed that it was an ambush.
Vissel's words only elaborated on the final details, but Jiha smirked.

“Have you seen each other for a long time? There is nothing to doubt again.”
"..."

Bissell asked abruptly, still looking dazed.

"I... Do you like it?"
"I like it because it doesn't get in the way. She thinks she is beautiful as a woman, and she will sleep as long as she can."

Usually, when a woman hears it, she will be dumbfounded at what such an answer is.
But Bissell was no ordinary woman. She looked blankly down her basement and said.

"Jeon... It's a bit strange Alaune."
"Don't worry. Even if he was human, it's strange enough."
"..."
"At first, you were a bit of a strange woman. I don't care if you're Alaune or any other race."

Bissell has always been the same. She worked as a war writer and archivist for the Red Union, but she was always in a daze.
Her attitude toward her basement hasn't changed at all since she was with her at the library back in the day.
She didn't mind being underground. I'll do it if it helps...

Bissell was one of her memories of her past days.
When he was fiercely digging various books in the library to try to live and to build up her knowledge, she was the woman he saw every day at a distance.
They barely spoke to each other and only heard the sound of turning the pages, but when she thought of those days, she became sentimental.

'She is dead. When she was studying for civil servants, she was a woman who went to the same reading room... Can I just say that?'

The basement was lost in thought when footsteps were heard.
Chun-ho approached with a horned face and shouted loudly.

"Anyway, don't you think this body is too easy for you? If I tell this body to come and go like a slave like this, how the hell will other people see this body!"
"I'll see you're my subordinate."
"That means..."
"There is a trap in the forest."

Underground said succinctly.

"I saw that there is a race called Alaune. They set a trap and try to eat the Red Union."
"Allaune? Aren't they things that prey on travelers? What power do they have?"

Chun-ho was dumbfounded.

"They are not very strong. I thought they might have hidden an ambush, but they've put some really useless stuff in there. Do you think you can block this body with just those things?"
"Let's go carefully. Burn the forest to make a road and pass through it."
"What, what are you so afraid of?"

Cheonho covered his mouth with his sleeve and laughed.
Her eyes softened, and it seemed like she was happy that the basement came out so passively.

"Yeah, since Alaune are made up of beautiful women, they must be difficult opponents for foolish men. But this body is different."
"It was a trap set after knowing you were coming. There is no need to leave."

The basement deliberately pretended to dry it.
As expected, Chun-ho became more stubborn.

"Huh, that's noisy. If you're scared, stay back! This body will open the way by slaughtering all the foolish things lurking in that forest!"
"How many troops do you need?"
"You don't need much! I will take 2 million and clean it up!"

Cheonho looked down at the basement and spoke triumphantly.

"Keep an eye on what this body is doing. A frightened underworld god."
"Try it."

When Ji-ha answered lightly, Cheon-ho smiled and turned around.
The sound of confidently walking footsteps, the momentum was completely up.
Vissel looked behind him and said abruptly.

"Danger... Do."
"I guess."

Barota is not an ordinary guy.
To stand out within the city federation is to have political ability.
The fact that he tried to use Belany as a double agent without touching him means that he is careful even if he has a desire.
And as the lord of Rucoru, he has been ruling for over three years, so he must be quite armed.
The trap that such a guy prepared to say that a legend was coming, it must have its own meaning.

'A winning streak...'

The Red Union, which had destroyed four castles, and the Legend led the charge, were all drunk with victory.
The only cool thing was the underground one.
He won't be satisfied until he completes world conquest.


Cheonho's outburst? Don't bother blocking
Use it to destroy enemy traps.
