Chapter 119: Ambush
"It's coming......" Eddie kept his torso as close to the slope of the roof as possible to keep his balance;
Not to mention, the girl Eclipse Moon is really a first-class professional in choosing a location;
From this angle, you can see the Viscount's side of the team when you stretch out your head, but the Viscount's side may not be able to notice the roof even during the day;
"Hmm...... Next, I'm going to start setting up the magic circle. Eclipse Moon whispered, "During this time...... Don't bother me. ”
"Don't worry, I'm not here to make trouble. Eddie smiled in response—of course, he had things to do;
For example, prepare for an escape or something.
Smoke bombs are indispensable, and in addition to them, Add also asks Nightstar to make some magic traps - the kind that can be thrown out and used;
It's a pity that Orange Wind's spirit can't last long, and if you bring her over, it's not convenient to turn around and run if necessary.
The preparations on the side of the eclipse moon were also proceeding in an orderly manner, and the girl slowly condensed a dark purple magic array in front of her, her eyes slightly closed, as if sensing something;
Eddie knew that eighty percent of her abilities had nothing to do with magic - after all, no one had made a contract yet, and it should only be "primary" like Orange Wind before and Night Star now;
There was nothing unusual about her target area, which was an alley perpendicular to the Viscount's route;
Obviously, if the viscount was to move forward normally, he would never have stepped into it......
Add's attention turned to the Viscount's side, where Coldcone was riding with a few knights, laughing and unhurried, at the front of the line;
The moonlight is not very bright...... At this point, it's also useful to remember what the Lord looks like. With this in mind, Eddie opened the optical analysis module;
Consistent with his name, Viscount Coldcone had a relatively thin face, and his body was not as strong as the knights around him;
But Eddie knew very well that the one who could become a viscount was at least an existence that had stepped into the silver rank—like a blue wolf baron who had just crawled out of a trap;
If you really fight him head-on, let alone Eddie, even a serious strong man, seven or eight may not be enough for him to kill.
"Whew...... The magic circle is complete. Eclipse opened her eyes, breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Add...... Hmm, how did you prepare so many things?"
"You might need it when you're running away. "Eddie wasn't going to go into detail about what they do, it would be too time-consuming.
"Well, it's always a good idea to be a little more vigilant. Eclipse Moon looked over to the side of the main road, "Cold cone, it's about to ......." ”
After the main road extends a long distance from the castle, the junction is no longer a regular cross;
Wide or narrow alleys intersect perpendicular to the main road, and warehouses and uninhabited rooms are excellent hiding places for ambush parties;
Those adventurers still had a more careful plan for the specific process of this ambush......
"It's coming. Eclipse Moon looked down an alley behind the advancing Viscount's team and said—if you look closely, you'll be able to spot the shadows hiding inside;
In the other alley at the front of the group, the shadows were also present.
"Signal—" Before the Eclipse Moon could finish speaking, a dark shadow behind him sprang out of the alley, pulled out a firecracker-like object from his bosom, and threw it into the sky;
The flash illuminated half of the steel and wood city, and as soon as he shouted, dark shadows appeared in the alleys.
"The ——! of the Thief of the Cold Cone
"The ————! of the Thief of the Cold Cone
A slightly chaotic echo echo resounded through the main road;
The dark shadows scrambled out of the alley, their weapons flashing with cold light;
In addition to swords, spears and spears, the fire of magic flashed through the crowd;
Fireballs, ice picks, and lightning bolts are slamming straight at the Viscount's team, and it doesn't matter if you hit or not, it's just the momentum - suppress the Viscount's side, and preferably force them to surrender!
The alleys, which were quiet and quiet before, are now as noisy as hundreds of firecrackers have been lit;
The adventurers rushed towards the Viscount of the Cold Cone with their weapons held high in anger, and the Viscount's side could not help but be a little confused because of the lack of accurate numbers in the darkness;
However, the best-case scenario that the adventurers had envisioned did not materialize, and according to the estimates of some of the guildmasters, in the face of a night attack of this magnitude, the viscount's team might be in confusion and unable to command at the first moment;
Apparently not at the moment, the team was still moving forward under the Viscount's leadership - but apparently, their goal was no longer the Wild Sand Guild, but the only fork in the road ahead, within the blockade;
Seeing this scene, the spirit of the Eclipse Moon concentrated a few more of them, and the team chose the sub-optimal option in the minds of the adventurers to flee in an orderly manner;
The direction the viscount chose to flee in the same place where the gravity magic array was buried before the eclipse moon.
Of course, the worst case in the first step is for the viscount to directly let the team break through the ambush team, but that can separate the victory and defeat in a short period of time, killing the viscount is a win, otherwise it is a loss, and under the premise of numerical superiority and early preparation, the success rate of this is not low.
The neat procession of soldiers began to grow chaotic, and the common soldiers followed the knights, and the knights followed the viscount into the alleys—and in the midst of the noisy roars, the battle entered the second phase;
In the second stage, if the viscount is forced into the alley by the whole army, the ambush team on the other side of the alley will be dispatched!
The shadows appeared ghostly at the other end of the alley, no smaller than the first two ambush teams;
According to the estimates of the presidents, under such a series of ambushes, the viscount's team has a high chance of directly collapsing;
Eclipse Moon sighed slightly, but still didn't.
The soldiers continued to obey the Viscount's orders, and fearlessly moved forward—even though there were men at the end of the alley to intercept them;
Well, the soldiers here had two choices, Eddie thought—he had listened to the meeting, after all;
First, directly in the relatively narrow alleys to resist stubbornly and fight with the adventurers;
If they choose this, then the outcome is decided, the gravitational array of the Eclipse Moon will control them as if they were hanging, and the adventurers will have a way to slowly kill them without entering the gravitational field.
the second is to enter the unmanned warehouses in this alley and carry out the next step of resistance;
This may seem overwhelming, but adventurers have long expected it;
The warehouse is already full of flammable materials, and the magician only needs to throw two fireballs into it, and the entire warehouse will turn into a sea of fire, and those who come out will be controlled by the gravitational field, and it will still be a dead end.
It stands to reason that this is the end of the battle - but Add feels that the situation will not be so simple;
Viscount he ...... Which approach will you choose?
