The Nilfgaard people have no idea how many Skellige people there are, and in this case, it is obviously a luxury to expect every ordinary soldier to think calmly.
Once the panic spreads, it will lead to collapse.
At this time, Earl Tulius, who had just landed ashore, still did not understand what happened ahead.
All he saw was that his front army was in chaos.
Immediately afterwards, someone was heard shouting, "Our army has been defeated, our army has been defeated."
Earl Tulius Without thinking, he immediately turned back to the sampan he came from and returned with the guards.
While rowing towards the ship parked offshore, Earl Tulius saw that his soldiers were even fighting to fight for a sampan that could allow them to escape.
I couldn't help but feel lucky that I reacted quickly, otherwise I would have been in danger among the chaos.
In the end, the surviving Nilfgaard soldiers fled back to the ship, but the price was that more than 600 Nilfgaard people stayed behind forever.
Seeing Nilfgaard's fleet leaving, Earl Torgil, Crach and "Madman" Lugos breathed a sigh of relief.
Even though they just suppressed the Nilfgaard people in a big way, after all, the number of Nilfgaard people is still higher than theirs. If they can see their weakness and continue to send a large force into the battlefield, then they will be in a dangerous situation because of their numerical disadvantage.
Now that the Nilfgaard people have retreated, the lords immediately arranged for people to start cleaning the battlefield and treating the wounded.
Originally, the people of the Islands planned to kill all Nilfgaard wounded soldiers who had no time to escape. Forget about the nobles. If they were ordinary soldiers, Nilfgaardian Empire would not pay for them.
This is how it should be.
But Lynn stopped them.
A better proposal was given:
Give these injured Nilfgaard people treatment, and then let them pay for their lives with labor.
Population is a very precious resource in this era.
In this era where there are no Jenny machines, manpower is needed to do anything. Therefore, wouldn't it be a pity to kill these prisoners directly?
The three lords listened to Lynn's suggestion and finally accepted it.
They are not afraid that these prisoners will rebel or escape. These prisoners will definitely be divided equally among the three families, and there won't be much left after one share.
As long as these prisoners are not allowed to gather together, they will not be able to rebel.
As for escaping, don't worry.
Skellige Isles is far away from the mainland. Even if they want to escape, they need a boat.
Besides, it's not that easy to go back Nilfgaard just by having a boat on the vast sea.
After the discussion, Earl Torgil said with a smile, "Your Excellency Lynn, Your Excellency Gerd, leave the rest of the cleaning work to our people. Thank you for your hard work, I will ask someone to take you two back to the castle first."
But Lynn shook his head.
"No, the battle is not over yet." He pointed in the direction where Nilfgaard's fleet was leaving, "We can't just let them leave like this."
"This..."
"Madman" Lugos and Crach looked at each other.
"Madman"Lugos scratched his head.
I feel that my nickname should be more suitable for Lynn.
Lynn already has the prototype of a plan in mind.
He quickly recalled the terrain of Skellige Isles, combining it with the geographical knowledge he had already memorized in the game, and what he had seen and heard while traveling around the archipelago for the demon hunting commission.
Soon he thought of a suitable place to ambush the Nilfgaard people again.
"Master Earl, Master Lugos, and Master Crach, what I say next is very important, please be sure to listen carefully."
Lynn informed the three of them of the ambush location he thought of, and also asked them to ambush here if reinforcements from other archipelago families arrived.
"What about me, brother, what do I need to do?"
Gerd, who was covered in blood, saw that he was the only one who was not assigned a task, so he asked anxiously.
"Just stay and help them."
"What about you?"
"For the next thing, it will be better if I act alone."
After saying this, Lynn drank a bottle of White Honey to remove the previously accumulated potions and toxins. After a while, he drank another bottle of Superior Killer Whale, then jumped into the cold sea water and followed the direction in which Nilfgaard's fleet left.
Nilfgaard's fleet did not leave too far. With his extraordinary physique, Lynn soon saw the Nilfgaard fleet on the distant sea.
In order to avoid being discovered, Lynn dived underwater and swam through the water.
The Superior Killer Whale he had taken previously could increase his oxygen by 50% when underwater and enhance his visual ability during diving.
Without spending much time, Lynn approached the stern of the last ship in the fleet from underwater.
He first surfaced and turned on Witcher Senses to confirm that no one was looking here, then he climbed onto the stern of the ship and hid on the deck at the stern.
Using the debris on the deck as a shield, Lynn took out Nilfgaard's standard armor from the magic pattern leather bag, put it on, and then used Glamarye to change his appearance.
From the previous chaotic retreat, all the Nilfgaard soldiers who survived were in shock.
No matter how strict an officer is, it is impossible to ask for anything more at this time.
Therefore, except for the minimum sentry, most of the soldiers returned to the cabin to rest.
Originally, Lynn was hiding on the stern deck after changing his armor. If someone discovered him, he would use the excuse that he was too tired and planned to take a rest.
In the end, this excuse was useless, because no one came until nightfall.
After resting for a day and recharging his energy, Lynn stood up from behind the debris.
At this time, he is wearing Nilfgaard's standard armor, and his face has been changed with Glamarye. As long as he doesn't speak, he will not be exposed (except for the well-educated elite, Nilfgaard's lower class people generally cannot speak Common Speech, and the accent difference between the north and the south is very obvious).
He scanned the surroundings and found a lone soldier. When the other soldier looked over in confusion, he released Axii Sign.
The soldier's expression soon became dull.
"I ask, you answer... who is the commander of your squadron?"
"Earl Tulius."
"Which ship is he on?"
The soldier raised his arm and pointed at the centermost ship in the fleet.
"There is a knight named Charimir and Duchy of the Curved Coast. Do you know him?"
The soldier nodded.
"Where is he?"
"It's also on Master Earl's ship, but I don't know more about it."
Lynn nodded.
"Forget this conversation just now, you were distracted."
While Axii Sign was still in action, Lynn walked away quickly and jumped off the side of the ship when no one was paying attention.
Under the cover of darkness, he swam towards the fleet's flagship.
