Chapter 170: Evacuation
Highly recommended:
Just when Chu Que felt strange, the human side began to defend more tightly. What was originally three rows of infantry is now expanded into two rows.
The reserve militia has now unloaded their equipment and begun to build a temporary fence. These fences don't need to be of good quality, as long as they can block the gaps.
Although the dwarves are short in stature, they are not small in strength at all. One by one, they brought out the timber from the warehouse to provide materials for the farmers.
Everyone is united, and its profit is gold. Soon a long and rudimentary fence was erected, and behind it were all soldiers on standby.
"Sure enough, I didn't guess wrong, just with the brains of those guys, how could they directly withdraw from the troops, and they still want to divide the troops to attack us! Lads! Grab your weapons and get ready to fire! The dwarven hero raised his hammer and pointed at the trolls who were climbing the hill on the other side.
The first to fire was, of course, the dwarven mortar squad that attacked the farthest distance, and the shells filled with gunpowder burst directly in the center, killing two trolls.
The injuries to the other trolls weren't too big, mainly in the back, because of the impact that knocked them over and rolled down the slope.
Now that the plan had been discovered, the troll leader simply took out a horn and blew it, this horn carried a hint of magic, and the sound spread far away.
The kobolds and gnolls on the other side of the slope attacked again, and the battle was once again on the verge of breaking out.
At this time, Chu Que had memorized the approximate number, and now he was ready to sneak into the tent to see if he could get any gains.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, he lifted the tent and peeked inside. The tent wasn't the empty one yet, and there was some furniture in it. One cabinet, two chairs. The two casters were now sitting cross-legged on the woolen blanket, motionless.
Walk inside slowly, trying not to make the slightest sound. Stepping on the woolen blanket, there was basically no footsteps, but he always felt scared.
I came to the cabinet and slowly opened it. Turning his head to see that the two of them still maintained that movement, he was relieved.
Inside the cabinet were some animal hair, and there were a lot of bottled powders, bones, and the like. It could be a medium used to cast spells, or it could be a raw material used to concoct a potion.
I also found a sharp small dagger with mysterious lines on it, Chu Que didn't know what kind of dagger this was, but it could be regarded as a good melee weapon.
It just so happened that there were two more people in this tent, and Chu Que was thinking about whether to take action to deal with them. These two people should also be considered to be in the category of enemies, and the number of spellcasters is relatively small, so it should be a lot of percentage to solve these two people.
However, the caster was originally very mysterious, and Chu Que had no idea what kind of abilities they had, and might even have means to save their lives, and if they were discovered, the gains would outweigh the losses.
Just between hesitations, it began to slowly become invisible. Exactly outside the tent, two more spellcasters came in to prepare for deep meditation.
Chu Que immediately made a decision and decided to leave the tent immediately after the two of them entered meditation and did not move. Maybe the value of these four heads is not as important as the number of the opponent's main forces tonight.
After leaving, he continued to return to the house where he had been hiding, waiting for the end of the battle.
Needless to say, the invasion of the monsters, apart from killing a few soldiers, did not take any advantage. With the exception of the cunning gnoll leader, who eventually abandoned his weapon and fled, the other two leaders died by the sword.
The tenacious troll leader slashed the dwarven hero with an axe at the end, only to smash his head to pieces.
Once the alarm is dismissed, no commands are required. The soldiers took the initiative to clean up the battlefield and clean up the corpses.
If the corpses here are not disposed of for a long time, even the simple digging of a pit and burying them may turn into undead. Therefore, the corpses on the human side, the priesthood will pray for them to avoid becoming undead. And those failed invaders were piled up together, and a fire burned them directly.
The moon is setting, and the time for the confluence is approaching. And Chu Que is still standing there, his legs are a little numb, and he doesn't dare to act rashly.
The soldiers had walked back and forth in the neighborhood at least a few hundred times, and he couldn't find a chance to slip through.
'What should I do?' You're not going to get stuck here, are you?! The fence that had been built improvised on the periphery had long since been torn down. Now those peasants are building new, stronger stone walls.
Boom~Bang~ A rapid sound sounded from a distance, and then it got a red light in mid-air and exploded, spreading the sky.
"Flares! Hurry up and gather the soldiers, the sub-base is in trouble! "One of the veterans recognized the situation and gathered the soldiers around him.
The old man on the white horse reappeared, this time not on his horse to cast a spell, but as he chanted the spell, he sprinkled a white powder on the ground.
The Dwarven Hero tells the soldiers to hurry into the circle and wait for the spell to finish. Due to the scarcity of priests, many wounded soldiers once again put on armor and prepared for battle with a sharp blade after a simple medical treatment.
"These guys really don't give up, they knew they should catch up and screw off his dog's head!" The dwarven hero slammed his hammer into the ground, revealing a hole.
Chu Que looked at it this time, if it was on himself, it would become a meat patty.
The old man's casting speed was not slow, and soon a magic circle was completed, and as the spell was also recited at the same time, the magic circle flashed with blue light, and the light enveloped everyone inside, and they all disappeared in an instant.
'Hmm??? Where did they go? Chu Que looked at the open space suspiciously, if it weren't for the hole on the ground that had been smashed by the hammer, he really thought he was dazzled.
Now there is a rare opportunity, and the most important thing is to evacuate as soon as the troops here are gone. Where the human forces went was really irrelevant to him.
It's a big deal to ask Junyu later, what kind of magical magic is that can make a lot of people disappear out of thin air.
If you can learn any kind of magic, say it's cured. In a battle royale, giving yourself a little more is definitely more effective than wearing a bandage.
Returning to the cover of the woods again, a vague black shadow followed him from a distance without Chu Que noticing.
