  Chapter 168 continues to the Blood King City

   There was a warm flame burning in the fireplace, and the "cracking" sound from time to time when the firewood exploded, the jumping firelight dyed the whole room a lazy orange.

  Robin was paralyzed on a comfortable sofa, with his arms fully opened, forming a big character. He hadn't taken off his armor yet, and the blood and rainwater on his body seeped into the sofa under him little by little.

  The light from the fire in the fireplace shone on Robin, he felt warm, and couldn't help feeling a little drowsy.

Kazan's servant tremblingly carried a bundle of dry firewood and stuffed it carefully into the fireplace. While adding firewood, the young man quietly peeked at Robin. He thought Robin hadn't noticed, but in fact Robin Has been seeing things clearly.

  From the servant's eyes, Robin could only see fear and timidity. This servant was just an ordinary person, and there was no threat to Robin, so Robin didn't care about him.

  Robin can understand why Kazan would keep an ordinary human as a servant by his side. Those hobgoblins and gnolls can't do delicate tasks like serving tea and water.

   There was a low table in front of Robin. At this moment, Kazan's head was placed on the low table, and the ferocious face that was always fixed was facing Robin.

   Robin looked at Kazan's dead face, and began to replay this battle in his mind. This is his old habit. Every time he experiences a fierce battle, he will go through the whole battle process in his mind again, thinking about whether there is a better way of fighting, whether he can fight a little easier.

   The vitality of the vampires is too powerful. To deal with those ordinary vampire warriors, you can kill them by cutting off their heads, but against vampires like Kazan, Robin can only chop his body into pieces.

   Moreover, according to what Kazan himself said, in fact Kazan is not a real vampire. He is a blood servant of the Duke of Blood. He was originally a human being. He has entered the final step of transforming into a vampire.

  It takes so much effort to kill a half-blood, and the real blood will only be harder to kill.

  Robin thought for a while in silence, he could only think for the time being that maybe using fire is a good way to deal with the vampires. Use a fire soaring to the sky to burn all these undead monsters to death, and burn their bodies into a coke, which may kill them.

  However, Robin turned his head and looked out the window. The pattering autumn rain was still falling endlessly. It is not easy to attack with fire in such weather.

  In addition, it is now known that blood races have the ability to transform ordinary humans into blood race companions. The Roselle and Kazan that Robin killed were all imperial people who took refuge in the Duke of Blood. I don't know how many blood servants like Kazan still exist in Blood King City.

  Robin leaned his head on the sofa, staring at the ceiling above his head, in a daze.

  Eternal life and powerful power, it is not impossible to understand why they betrayed human beings, these two items are indeed too tempting.

   After refilling the fireplace, under Robin's order, the servant brought another large plate of food, including barbecue, fresh fruits and vegetables, and fine red wine.

   Robin was quite surprised that there were so many food that humans could eat in the blood clan's fortress. I heard from the servant that although Kazan can survive only by drinking blood, he often likes to taste human food, which is also an alternative sentiment.

  And now, these exquisite delicacies stored by Kazan happened to be cheaper than Robin.

  Robin put Kazan's head down on the low table and asked the servants to put all the food on the low table. After a fierce battle, he was already hungry.

  But just as he started to eat, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and Simon strode in.

   "Boss, Baron Lauren of Rock City is outside. He wants to see you." Simon walked up to Robin and reported.

  Robin picked up a piece of barbecue with a fork, threw it into his mouth and chewed it, and suddenly felt that his mouth was full of oil: "Let him in."

   After Robin finished speaking, he immediately asked, "Have the iron guards and half-elves eaten yet?"

  As a qualified lord, of course Robin can't only care about filling his own stomach, but also benefiting his subordinates.

  Simon wiped the oil from his mouth, and grinned happily: "Brothers are eating. This small fortress doesn't look oily. I didn't expect that the things in the warehouse are quite complete. We are roasting a whole lamb outside."

  Robin nodded: "Okay, that's good."

  Simon stared at the half-bottle of red wine on Robin's table, like a wild wolf, his eyes shining brightly: "Boss, although there is a lot of food in this place, there is not much wine, so give me a sip."

  Robin couldn’t understand what Simon meant. This group of highlanders counted as one, and they were all a group of alcoholics. He smiled dotingly and said, “Okay, take all the half bottle.”

   "Hey hey, thank you leader." Iron Bear Warrior immediately burst into a smile, picked up the wine bottle, re-corked the cork, and left happily.

  Robin knows that Simon looks simple and honest, but he is actually a ghost. He will definitely find a place where no one is around and drink secretly by himself.

  The highlanders are a miraculous nation. For their own brothers, they can do both.

   A moment after Simon left, Baron Lauren walked into the room.

   Baron Lauren just came in from the outside, and his whole body was still wet. He stood at the door and saw Robin sitting in front of the fireplace at a glance, having already started eating.

  Robin didn't get up, but looked back at Baron Lauren, and pointed to a sofa chair next to him: "Sit down, Baron Lauren."

   Baron Lauren came over with small steps, and carefully sat down next to Robin. He looked a little reserved, and he didn't have the usual proud aura. Instead, he looked like a fledgling student in front of Robin.

   "What's the matter? Baron Lauren." Robin asked with a smile. He could see that Baron Lauren was abnormal.

   Baron Lauren showed a very ashamed expression, he bowed his head at Robin, and said:

"Baron Robin, I admire you for taking down this blood fortress. To be honest, I have always looked down on you. I think you are small and weak, and you are here to make up for it. But today I understand , your strength and bravery are far beyond mine, you are the real warrior, and in front of you, I have no confidence to be proud."

  Robin was a little surprised. Unexpectedly, this Baron Lauren was very honest and pragmatic. After realizing the gap between himself and Robin, his attitude towards Robin immediately changed.

   Robin doesn't dislike his straightforward nature of saying what he has. At least better than many dark nobles, that kind of people know that they are no match for you, so they start to make trouble behind your back, make shady tricks, and try to use some dirty tricks to win you.

  I have seen a lot of this kind of noble Robin. In contrast, Baron Lauren's candid personality is rare among nobles.

  Robin couldn't help but think of Ed from the Ice Banner family. He and Baron Lauren are quite similar in this regard.

"Baron Robin, I apologize to you for the previous faux pas. From now on, I am willing to give you the command of the forward troops, and I am willing to listen to your command. Let's put aside the past and work together to fight the vampires, Baron Robin, Do you think it's okay?"

   Baron Lauren opened his eyes wide, like a student eager to be recognized by the teacher, looking at Robin nervously and expectantly.

Robin saw that Baron Lauren's words were sincere, and he was not a small-minded person, so he smiled: "I didn't pay attention to the previous matter, if you are willing to listen to my command, then I will not be polite. "

   Baron Lauren's rough face immediately showed a happy smile: "Thank you for your tolerance, Baron Robin. In addition, I have another request. Can my soldiers enter the city? They are still stationed outside."

  Robin thought for a while, without hesitation: "Of course, let them all come in."

  Although Robin finally took down this blood fortress, it is undeniable that Baron Lauren also contributed. Robin doesn't mind sharing the spoils with Baron Lauren, he is not so stingy.

  Of course, most of the things in this fortress must belong to Raging Waves City.

  Actually, Robin doesn’t need to share this Blood Fortress with Baron Lauren. War is so cruel, no matter how much you pay, if you don’t win in the end, then everything is equal to zero.

  However, Robin still has a big picture. Everyone is friendly after all. Robin’s main purpose is to kill the blood clan. He hopes that all the wasteland lords can unite and don’t want to make the relationship too rigid.

   When the two talked about this, Baron Lauren suddenly noticed that there was a human head under the low table! His expression changed immediately, and he asked suspiciously: "Baron Robin, what is this head?"

   "His name is Kazan, he is the blood servant of the Duke of Blood, and he commands the defenders in this fortress." Robin picked up a small red persimmon from the dinner plate, threw it into his mouth and burst it in one bite.

   "You killed him?" Baron Lauren asked.

  Robin nodded: "That's right."

   Then, Robin briefly talked about the process of his battle with Kazan. After hearing this, Baron Lauren showed an unbelievable expression on his face.

   "Chop off the head, cut the body in half, and he can still fight!"

   Baron Lauren was shocked, he couldn't help thinking, if Robin was replaced by him, would he be able to defeat this Kazan?

  The result is negative. Baron Lauren has a clear understanding of his abilities. He will be caught off guard by Kazan, and may even lose his life.

  Under Baron Lauren's armor, he couldn't help but sweat all over his body. He was suddenly glad that he hadn't broken into this blood fortress before, otherwise he might have been decapitated by now.

In the next few days, Robin and the others will be guarding the blood fortress. Both he and Baron Lauren's army need temporary repairs, so they didn't move forward. They can just take advantage of this time and wait for the rest main force.

  Because no one escaped alive after the fortress was breached, Robin guessed that the Blood King City might not know that the fortress had fallen at this time.

   Baron Lauren really handed over the command to Robin. He asked Robin for almost everything, including the deployment of the city defense and the allocation of camps. Baron Lauren would only do it after getting Robin's approval.

The battle where Robin broke through the Blood Fortress shocked Baron Lauren quite a lot. Now he looks like a student in front of Robin, and sometimes he even asks Robin for advice on military theory. Learn a trick and a half here.

  Baron Lauren once studied in the Imperial Military Academy. Although he is not a high-achieving student, his experience can be regarded as a good bragging capital in the wasteland far away from the center of the imperial civilization.

  Although he looks big and rough, when it comes to military theory, he is a set of one set, like an old pedant.

  Robin, on the other hand, comes from a wild family background. He has never received any formal military education. How to lead troops and how to fight were all figured out by himself when he joined the army and struggled on the battlefield.

  So after the exchange between the two parties, Baron Lauren found that Robin's knowledge of military theory was very poor. Regarding how to fight, the most common sentence Robin said was "look at the feeling".

  I feel that the enemy is about to retreat, I feel that these troops are enough, and I feel that the enemy commander should be in that position... Baron Lauren doesn't understand, where does Robin have so many senses, and he has a sense of accuracy.

  After discovering that Robin "doesn't understand" tactics, Baron Lauren felt that he could do it again. He felt that he had finally found a place where he was better than Robin, so he was more willing to pull Robin to talk about tactics.

  However, the tactics and tactics he told Robin were named higher than the other, such as "Golden Apple Tactics" and "Brydon Tactics", but after listening to them, Robin found that he actually knew them all.

   For example, once, Baron Lauren told Robin a "Strecy Tactic".

  "The essence of this tactic is to surround the enemy first, but not to fight, but to concentrate superior forces to attack the reinforcements sent by the enemy to relieve the siege."

   Baron Lauren was elated and excited when he spoke. But when Robin heard it, isn't this just a siege to fight for aid, and what is "Strecy's tactic".

  He immediately rolled his eyes at Baron Lauren, turned around and left.

   Baron Lauren hurriedly shouted from behind: "Hey, don't go, Baron Robin, I haven't finished yet."

  Robin and their vanguard could not rest forever. After four days of repairing in the blood fortress, Robin and the others set off again.

   This time, the order of the marching teams was changed one by one. Robin's team walked in front of the vanguard, and Rock City's troops walked behind.

   This was not specially arranged by Robin, but Baron Lauren himself proposed it on his own initiative. He felt that since Robin was in command now, and the fighting power of the Raging Waves Legion was stronger, they should take the lead.

  The sky is still raining, and the road is still so difficult. On the wet grassland, one foot is deep and the other is shallow. Fortunately, this time there were no enemies or misfortunes.

   After another few days of marching, the vanguard finally arrived at the Blood King City.
