Chapter Twenty-Three: The Surprise Attack on Hooker Manor
Perhaps it was the nature of a girl, and after all the gloom of her childhood had dissipated, the bright-eyed and bird-like woman had regained her former beauty, and her hair was flowing back and forth in the valley, and it was her most important task to take care of George's daily life.
George was very worried about the vine's thin body, and forced the vine to eat meat, hoping that the vine could grow some meat through food, but now it looks too thin, as if a gust of wind can blow it away. And George attaches great importance to this magician, after all, she also belongs to an important part of his own combat force.
George researched a method of exercising, first unleashing the defensive technique, and then starting a chase with the vine, attacking each other with fire charges, which not only improved battlefield adaptability, but also indirectly increased magic proficiency.
Even in such fierce confrontations, it is possible to increase the upper limit of magic and mental power.
After a month, both George and Fuji's abilities improved accordingly, and Vine gradually became stronger through this period of exercise.
George calculated that Hook was almost ready, called all the combatants together, and began to work on the battle plan.
After some deliberation, George ordered Attaya to continue to put on the clothes of a horse thief and pretend to be a horse thief to launch a surprise attack on Hook's station.
Since the last time Hook was eaten by horse thieves, he began to be inexplicably afraid, and even killed the super hole cards he had hidden for many years, so Fang Fang must not be a horse thief, maybe it was a force secretly sent by Pierre, the political enemy of General Ancas. So, Hook secretly met with Ancas.
Hook said: "Lord Ancas, something is wrong with the horse thief this time, could it be that Pierre's meat ball is behind his back!"
Ancas said disdainfully: "Just like Ancas's bear, what other waves can be turned over? Could it be that the Pierre family is secretly supporting? But the Pierre family's power is in the royal capital, and they won't stretch their hands so far! It's really incomprehensible!"
Hook said, "Lord Ancas, whoever is behind it, but one thing that scares me very much is that my three flame mages have been killed!"
Ancas was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then said angrily: "Hook, do you know that there can be no magicians among private soldiers, and it would be a felony if they were discovered!"
Hook immediately knelt down and said tremblingly, "For the sake of my old honor to you, spare me! The other party did not take the corpse away, and it seems that he was not ready to play on the topic. ”
Ancas calmed down and said: "Since it has been done, if the other party finds evidence, then even I will be unlucky, I know about you, I want to go back to the family, I can't decide what help I can provide you with now." Go back!"
After Ancas returned to the family, he secretly met with some powerful people in the family, and then sent a few mysterious soldiers and 100 elite warriors to the Hook station. This time, unlike the soldiers of the military, the family's secret elite troops are truly cold-blooded killers. It is one of the best samurai, after years of precipitation and accumulation, this time Ancas also felt that something was wrong, the remnants of the horse thieves actually killed all the magicians, which is a bit incredible, the 5 mysterious people he sent this time are several summoners in the family, and they are their own secret hole cards, they are summoners exiled to their territory in the Black Diamond Kingdom, and their strength is not the same as that of ordinary magicians, I don't believe that those horse thieves have the strength to kill these summoners.
Among the mages, there are two kinds of mages that cannot be provoked:
A melee mage in the First Northland, the battle mage will condense his magic power into his fist or palm, and attack the enemy through the battle mage's unique technique, which can even break through the magic defense and kill the opponent.
The second is the summoner in the East, fighting with the summoner is very painful, before getting the summoner, you have to kill the group of summoned creatures, if you meet a high-level summoner, the summoned creature is extremely powerful, you may not see clearly what people have summoned, you have been killed.
Ancas is determined to let the other party sink into the sand this time, even if Pierre's family secretly sends support, what can it be? 5 summoners can give each other a magician team, and he also sent the family's elite warriors, this time it should be foolproof!
As the temperature rose day by day, the slaves became busier and busier, and the slave traders brought in more slaves, and the various farmers began to buy slaves in large quantities.
Instead of buying a large number of slaves, Hook took a lot of people out of the labor force, distributed weapons and began training. Master Hook attaches so much importance to the armed forces that everyone is puzzled.
After the alarm bell rang at Hook's Manor, the horse thieves visited Hooker's house again, and of course the horse thieves were all disguised by George's men.
George brought 100 Scout Knights with him this time, although some were killed last time, and the number was replenished to 100.
George ordered 20 men armed with short spears to shoot at a distance, alternating in batches. Others stood by and stood by.
After harvesting some of the enemy's lives, some strange samurai appeared in the Hook's army, who were armed with round shields to block the flying spears, and behind them, there were samurai with longbows, and a scout knight fell to the ground with every arrow. I'm rubbing, this Hook is really not afraid of losing his head, he actually got out the longbowmen used to guard the fortress!
Although George still had fire charges to use, but he didn't want to reveal his strength in advance, George asked Grape to ride a horse to surprise the opponent's archers.
Grape rode into the enemy line and used a scimitar to continuously harvest the opponent's life, and the opponent's soldiers were extremely strong in combat and had a very strong will to fight.
George was distressed to see that his knights had killed at least 40 people!
George couldn't hold back and joined the warband to charge wildly, and finally wiped out all of Hook's combat troops after losing 60 men!
George asked all the scout knights to clean up the battlefield and collect the slaves, and he and Grape began to enter Hooke's manor and search the house where Hooker lived.
Although there are many beautiful buildings in Hook Manor, the extravagant materials and the large construction area make George amazed, he did not expect that such a small farmer would have the strength to build such a luxurious house, and the furnishings in the house are all luxury items that can only be used by nobles.
George couldn't help but feel that it seems that the level of corruption in the country of Da Yu is already quite serious, and the country's property is constantly being secretly divided by these people.
Just as George was feeling emotional, Hook appeared, only to see him suddenly pull the mechanism, and a staircase leading to the basement appeared on the ground, and Hook rushed in.
George knew there must be an ambush, but this time Hook had to be killed, and George and Tina followed Hook into the basement.
By the time George and Grape burst into the basement, Hook was already hiding behind five men dressed in strange costumes, all five of whom were dressed in black and had grim faces.
Grape slapped George with his arm and said, "Brother, look at the badges on their chests!"
With the help of the faint light in the basement, George saw the badge on the other party's chest, which was actually the badge common to summoners in the Da Yu Kingdom!
George asked, "Are you from the country of Da Yu?"
The five people were stunned for a moment and said, "It doesn't matter, you don't care who we are?
With that, the five of them began to input magic power into the pre-prepared magic patterns, summoning 10 ice wolves.
The Ice Wolf is a primary summoned creature with no more attack power than ordinary wolves, but it can condense ice thorns from its body power and attack opponents from a distance.
At this time, the 10 ice wolves fired ice spikes at George and Grape every 5 seconds on average.
George was able to slash the Ice Spike with his sword at first, but the freezing effect of the Ice Spike made the knife brittle and easy to break.
George immediately pulled out his dagger and began to strike the ice spike, but it had little effect, and the ice thorn gradually began to hit George's body.
Grape saw that George was hit, the war knife danced quickly, and several ice wolves were chopped by grapes, because they were magical creatures, after the ice wolf was killed, it would dissipate like smoke, and in the vernacular, there was a puff of green smoke!
A wolf was hacked to death and the summoner on the opposite side summoned another one, at this time an older summoner on the other side saw that something was wrong, although mine was wearing iron armor, but after being hit many times by the ice thorn, the armor in part of the body had already been shattered, but the ice thorn still couldn't bring me any damage!
The summoner on the opposite side shouted, "Oh no, maybe the two people on the other side are also mages, they have applied a defensive spell, summon the clay trolls to smash them to death!"
The Clay Troll is an intermediate-level summoning spell, and only 1 person on the other side can cast it, and the preparation time is relatively long, and one of the summoners is struggling to summon like.
George and Grape said, "Don't hide your strength, fuck him with a fire bomb!" by the way, he made a gesture of 1 to signal a single shot. “
Grape tilted his head, made a helpless expression, and then fired a flame bomb at the ice wolf, and in an instant, the powerful flame energy penetrated the ice wolf's body, turning them into puffs of green smoke!
At this time, I saw a large humanoid creature wrapped in hard clods of earth being summoned, very tall and violent, and actually killed an unlucky junior summoner nearby in an instant, tearing the junior summoner's body apart, and then pouring blood into his mouth. The mid-level summoner who summoned the clay troll also looked at his companions in embarrassment, and then urged the clay troll to attack, apparently he had limited control over the minion.
When the clay troll attacked, the grapes fired several fire projectiles at it, and although they hit, they had little effect on the clay troll, and the clay troll raised his arm and threw the grapes into the air. Grape rolled on the ground a few times, unleashing the magic of the flame cloak, only to see the grapes burst into flames, then rushed towards the clay troll, and then slammed the troll with his fist.
The clay troll's body was burned to ashes inch by inch by the powerful flames emitted from the grapes, and soon turned into a wisp of green smoke and scattered. The flame cloak on the grape has been bubbling with flames!
A few summoners on the other side looked stupid, it's not that they haven't seen a flame mage over the years, but they have never seen a magic that can perform primary magic the same as high-level magic, and the other party's magic power seems to be endless, burning infinitely!
