Blue Sword

The answer, of course, is no.

In fact, Eleanor is also very confused about this. After all, she now owns two families at the same time... Emotionally, she is more inclined to inform the Weisbach family first, but her reason tells her that if she really does this, she will be sensitive. The Saxon Dragon family is bound to be hostile to the Weisbach family. After all, this means that their Highness values ​​the emotional bond with Weisbach more.

On the contrary, if the Dragon family is notified first, then although it is more realistic and reasonable, the Weisbach family, especially her father, the Duke of Bavaria, might secretly be sad.

So let the Iron Cross Mercenary Group spread the news, and at the same time give the two families time to buffer their understanding, and at the same time cleverly avoid making decisions and expressing their opinions... It can only be said that Eleanor is indeed no longer the naive child she was before. Now that she is a knight, she has begun to have some strategic thinking.

After learning that His Highness was already a demigod, Andrea and Heman were overjoyed and quickly sent people to invite the leaders of several other large mercenary groups to come over - in any case, the fortress opposite was not a mercenary. The group can be chewed up, so why not everyone push it together quickly and get the rewards.

Soon, the leaders of Free Wind, Bull, Plantagenet, Gold Coin, Vikings... and many well-known large mercenary groups also arrived.

"Is this His Highness?" Hajaral, the leader of the Viking mercenary group, a thick-haired Norman man, stared at Eleanor and asked.

Although demigods cannot judge people by their appearance, princesses can. With Eleanor's current heroic attire, she doesn't look like the princess of an imperial emperor - but more like a mercenary who has been a knight.

Eleanor smiled slightly and expanded the area of ​​​​the flame again, so Captain Hajaral immediately shut up. After all, the Vikings still feared the strong. Even if the blonde girl in front of them did not look strong, they did not dare to question the strength of a demigod easily.

However, someone soon expressed their opinions. The person who spoke out was Matthews, the leader of the Southeast Branch of the Wind of Freedom. He stared at Andrea and said:

"It's not that I question His Highness's strength, but to be honest, the demigod stationed in the fortress ahead is said to be the 'Fire of Sin' from Damascus. He is known for his large-scale fire attacks that add weird psychic damage."

"Your Highness is of the rank of demigod, so he is naturally not afraid of the killing of the demigods on the other side. However, we mercenaries are all made of flesh and blood and cannot be conceptualized. If they are affected by the aftermath of the battle between demigods, I am afraid that they will be killed immediately. It’s the end result of being turned into ashes.”

Between the lines, the other party's words were nothing more than saying that Eleanor had strength, but she might not be able to cover everyone under the attack of demigods... To put it bluntly, she was still unwilling to fight.

However, Andrea and Herman are also old slickers who have been in the mercenary world for many years, and of course they know that Matthews is not worried about safety issues at all.

After all, His Highness is His Highness of the Holy Solomon Empire. If he single-handedly defeated the fortress ahead, the Iron Cross Mercenary Group's voice in the Crusaders would be greatly enhanced.

Compared to Eleanor, the Free Wind Mercenary Group naturally hopes to let the demigod Apirios go into battle. At least this person has basically no motive of favoring the Iron Cross Mercenary Group. Although the other large mercenary groups did not speak, their meanings were obviously similar.

"Then how can I prove that I have the ability to protect everyone?" Eleanor also saw his intention, so she asked.

"This is easy." Before Matthews could come up with any troublesome plan, Andrea had an idea and said first, "Let His Highness lead Cang Qing Sword and others to tentatively attack the fortress, and let everyone see His Highness. The strength."

Matthews sneered in his heart, because everyone knew that once Eleanor's Unyielding Holy Sword was opened, not to mention a demigod on the other side, not even 10,000 demigods could hit her. In order to quickly demonstrate the strength of His Highness, Andrea made a good calculation.

However, he also knew that there was a time limit for the Unyielding Holy Sword to be activated, so he added:

"How about half an hour? If there are no demigods stationed on the opposite side, it will take us about this time to capture the fortress. If His Highness can lead the Blue Sword team, we can survive the siege of the demigods and Seljuk extraordinary troops on the opposite side. If we can hold out for half an hour, then we will immediately cover the remaining troops and defeat the other side in one fell swoop."

"Of course." He ignored the embarrassed Andrea and bowed slightly to Eleanor and said, "If Your Highness is not sure, you can lead the team to retreat at any time. We will definitely dispatch all our strength immediately to cover your retreat."

"Half an hour is too long." Andrea immediately objected, "If it were your demigod Louis at the Free Wind headquarters, could he lead you to sustain the siege of the demigods and Seljuk troops from the opposite side for half an hour? ?”

"Of course not." Matthews shook his head. "The demigods may be evenly matched, but there is a high probability that we and the Seljuk army will be involved in the aftermath and suffer heavy losses. So I said, it is better to wait for the city lord to join us. Go into battle, so that we have two demigods, we will have an advantage in high-end combat power, and the casualty exchange will be more advantageous."

This is certainly true. After all, ordinary people are just cannon fodder in front of demigods. If the offensive of demigods on the opposite side can be suppressed, then the casualties of everyone will naturally be much less.

But isn't the reason why our Crusaders are lagging behind because Olympia has never been ready to go to war? Matthews, what you said is correct nonsense!

Then the group leaders started arguing fiercely. One side accused the other side of being "fearful of war" and the other side accused the other side of being "advanced". They almost didn't draw their swords directly at the meeting.

As the focus of everyone's controversy, Eleanor always maintained an expression that was hesitant to speak. She actually wanted to say, "I am not the only demigod in our team." However, this felt like deliberately pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger, which made the straightforward Knight Ji quite embarrassed.

As for the other girls, Mia and Paige, who were the most impatient, had just been scolded by Ask, so they did not dare to interrupt anymore. These two didn't speak, and the rest of the group naturally didn't take the initiative to speak, so they just turned their questioning eyes to the group leader Aske.

"Ahem." After these people were tired from arguing, Asik said calmly, "How about we make a tentative attack first to see the quality of the enemy on the other side?"

Leaders:………………

Everyone felt a little inexplicably ashamed when they heard this. Although they are essentially competing for the dominant position and voice of this crusade, on the surface they are still discussing whether to adopt a more "radical" or "conservative" strategy.

However, as Captain Aske said, you have not even tested the quality of the enemy on the opposite side. Is it too vain to discuss this now? It has no practical meaning! At least send troops to fight, right?

So the meeting quickly reached a consensus: Let Eleanor take the Cangqing Sword to test the attack first to see how strong the demigods and the army's combat effectiveness are in the opposite fortress.

If it is weaker than expected, then use the entire army to attack and destroy it; if it is about the same or more difficult than expected, then retreat quickly and discuss again.
