"Even if there are four Wizards here, it doesn't an there are only four. Unfortunately, we don't know exactly how many. Intelligence suggests that Pallas's Mage Corps might exceed thirty people, including Silver Rank spellcasters. Given this, it's very likely." Crenxia answered.
He is the nominal Commander of the rcenaries here, while the more reliable Fern was assigned to assist in commanding the army of eight hundred Cave Dwellers. Additionally, Brand ordered the 'Red Copper Dragon' Reto and others to replace Yuta's rcenary group in stationing at the silver mine, because Count Rangdenier should not yet know that the silver mine has fallen. Therefore, Brand hopes that Reto can bring him so unexpected surprises there, as it is a dangerous task, and Reto and others, as veterans of the November War, are evidently more suitable for this task than the rcenaries under Yuta.
As for Yuta, she has already been called back to the frontline to confront the army of Count Rangdenier. She is quite satisfied with this arrangent; the beautiful red-haired, green-eyed rcenary leader is currently standing beside disha, raising her own doubts: "Where can so many Mages co from in Pallas Territory? Even if Pallas is always at the war's frontline, it's impossible."
"Don't forget Grus Domain and Grizzly Bear Territory. However, I think Count Rangdenier has also drawn a portion from his own Mage Corps; otherwise, it wouldn't be possible to have Silver Rank Wizards." Crenxia replied.
"Thirty people, speaking of a Mage Corps exceeding thirty, since the November War, Erune has never had one. Count Rangdenier is truly sparing no effort to intimidate 'insignificant ones'!" Patrol Cavalry Captain Yulier, who has followed Brand since Ridenburg, couldn't resist jesting. As half a noble, he knows quite well about the various wars Erune has faced in the past.
Yulier's remark made everyone present smile. Among their Spellcasters, the Druids alone number over a hundred, not to ntion that the Mage Attendant of the young Lord is authentically a Golden Rank Wizard.
Speaking of which, the army under the young Lord's command is not large, but their quality is exceptionally high—ordinary soldiers are either battle-hardened rcenaries or veterans of the November War, at the very least original Erune Army soldiers who've fought against Madara. Among them, very few are below Black Iron in Strength; in fact, a considerable number are above Black Iron Middle. Furthermore, there is an army composed of Cave Dwellers; their individual Strength is at least at Black Iron Upper, with many at Black Iron Peak.
Both armies together almost reach three thousand people, with the proportion of Mages in this army exceeding one-tenth, which is extrely rare in the entire war history of Erune—it's simply unbelievable. If such news were to spread, it would undoubtedly cause a stir, necessitating a reassessnt of the strength of this new Lord of Tonyger. However, Brand deliberately suppressed these ssages because he knows that sotis a surprise often leaves a more lasting impression than a confird fact.
This ti the young man wants to make sure his na is rembered throughout Erune, as well as who is the rightful Lord of Tonyger.
Yulier's words dispelled quite a bit of gloom from the hearts of those present, making Count Rangdenier's army in the forest feel much less intimidating and evil. However, Char still had to caution them, waving his hand: "Though it's said this way, the opponent still surpasses us significantly in absolute strength. Rangdenier claims to have three Knight Lords leading twenty thousand troops, and the mountain people number about ten thousand. That ans in the forest before us—"
Char seriously pointed ahead, north of the Griss River: "There may be an army thirty tis our size."
Everyone again grew solemn; this was sothing they had long been aware of.
"Moreover, the three Knights under them, all have elite Knights, totaling at least a hundred, possibly more. These Knights are at least of Silver Rank Strength, and we are precisely lacking such a force. The Cave Dwellers can certainly take them on, but the Lord clearly stated that as long as Madara does not appear on the battlefield, the Cave Dwellers cannot appear. Therefore, in terms of Silver Rank combat power, they completely dominate.
"Furthermore, besides Pallas, the Grizzly Bear Domain Knight Lord and Grus Knight under Rangdenier possess Golden Rank power, and who knows if the opponent doesn't have hidden trump cards—worst case scenario, even with only two Golden Rank ones, against disha and , it's barely a draw. If there's a third, we'll still be at a disadvantage."
