Chapter 42: The Gate of Time and Space
There's an elven army on Hammondal!
Johnny's revelation shocked everyone in the castle hall.
Although Johnny didn't know the number, class composition, and leading generals of this elven army, nor did he know when this army would be able to reach Hammondal, this news still made everyone understand the seriousness of the matter.
The army was dispatched, which meant that the elves of Turalone had decided to officially turn against the Erathian Empire, and the shadow of war had already enveloped the entire Hammondal.
Everyone here more or less knew that this day would come sooner or later, but what they didn't expect was that this day would come so quickly and so early.
Everyone was not mentally prepared at all.
The lord is very crazy, how can everything be fine and suddenly become the worst situation?
Her Majesty's promised army of 300 men has not yet arrived, and with Her Majesty's ambition for Hammondal, your lord can be sure that these 300 men must be a powerful army of 100 soldiers, and with this army, the situation will definitely not be like this.
Her Majesty's promised funds and new castles have not yet arrived, and her dilapidated castle has just been blown up by a magician, and it would be good to be able to live in it, but now it is going to be used for war? It's not funny at all.
Not long after the training of his lord's guard began, not to mention the small number of people, not even standard equipment, and tactical training has not yet been carried out, such rookie soldiers want to resist the well-equipped and well-trained regular army of elves? It's like hitting a stone with an egg.
The walls and gates of the town are also being rebuilt, and now the war has suddenly begun, and the project is only halfway through, and many places have not been repaired, and even people can't go up, how can they be used for defense? It would have been better not to fix it if I had known this.
The cavalry that he has always wanted to form has not even landed a mount so far, and although the training of archers has the help of half-elves, it has not had much effect in a short time, and the use of military thorns is difficult to play a big role due to the number of people.
The lord suddenly found that he seemed to be in a bad situation, could it be that his previous good fortune was all a fake?
He couldn't help but miss his ability to materialize the game in the Soul War, if he had such an ability in reality, no matter how many elven army lords came, he wouldn't be afraid!
Waving his hand to let Johnny be taken out to take care of him, Jian Chen looked around at everyone and asked with a gloomy face, "What do you think about this matter?" Let's talk about it, don't worry about anything. ”
So far, panic is useless, and in the face of the predicament, the stubborn side of the lord's character is once again reflected, but he calms down.
He quickly thought about how to find a way to survive in a desperate situation.
The first to speak out was the loyal old butler, the old man who had been in Hammondale for almost half his life, shook his head and said, "Obviously, the mountain is covered by heavy snow and the road is impassable, how can the elven army attack Hammondale at such a time?" That spy can't be scaring us, is he? ”
These words made the lord's eyes light up, yes, the road is not passable, otherwise the small army sent by the empress would have already arrived in Hammondal, even if the army of the Erathia Empire can't come, there is no reason for the elven army to come?
The old butler continued, "Even if this spy tells the truth, I think this elven army should not arrive until the snow melts in the early spring, and we still have some time to prepare." ”
Jian Chen stood up excitedly, clapped his hands and said, "Yes, we still have time, and we can also find a way to send people to ask for help from the Erathia Empire!" Let them find a way to support us! ”
At this time, Robert, a liar who had deliberately hidden his figure in the dark and had not spoken out all the time, suddenly said something that made the lord roll his eyes: "Lord Lord, in my experience, Johnny didn't deceive us just now, he said the truth!" I'm sure of that! ”
The sorceress also interrupted Jian Chen's thoughts with a wry smile: "Lord Lord, you and Lord Foresh are too optimistic, have you forgotten?" The elves have a large number of magicians, and the heavy snow closure is not a big deal for some magicians, and the elves are most likely almost in Hammondal! ”
"What do you mean by that?" Jian Chen, who was still smiling just now, began to frown again, he knew that his personal magic consultant was not a joker, and even if she said this, she must be sure.
"You've received the lich's knowledge, so you should know the magic of the 'Time Gate', right?" The sorceress sighed, as if she was a little dissatisfied with the lord's sluggishness, "Although there are many restrictions on the use of this magic, and there are also high requirements for the mages themselves, I believe that the elves who once ruled here can still find a suitable place in Hammondale to secretly establish a space-time portal, so that the elven army may appear in Hammondale at any time." ”
"A space-time portal?" The lord was startled again, of course he knew about this powerful magic.
Seeing that the rest of the people were still confused, the female magician simply gave everyone a lesson: "The magic of the time and space gate belongs to the top magic of the earth system, and the magician can use some specific magic materials to establish portals in two places, so as to achieve the purpose of moving quickly between the two places." However, there are many restrictions on the use of this magic, not to mention the strict requirements for materials, the terrain, climate influence, and the density of various magical elements in the two places have almost strict requirements, and it is also easy to be destroyed by humans. And whether the space-time gates established on both sides can be connected, it also depends on the magic level of the magician who casts the spell and whether the control of the magic elements is accurate, otherwise as long as there is a little mistake, the amplitude of the resonance of the magic elements is a little different, and the space-time gates on both sides will not be connected or even destroyed on the spot, wasting magic materials in vain! ”
After listening to the words of the sorceress, Polly couldn't help but relax and said with a smile: "If that's the case, then we don't have to worry too much, I don't think the elves will make such a big fight for our remote little place, right?" ”
Pete, the half-elf, knew the elves relatively well, and he shook his head to deny Polly's optimistic speculation: "That's not necessarily, it's not a matter of a day or two that the elves want to get their hands on Hammondale, looking at that elven spy's fearless appearance, I think they must have been prepared for a long time, maybe when this space-time gate was secretly built, just waiting for it to come in handy now!" ”
Jian Chen flipped through the knowledge about the Gate of Time and Space in his mind, and immediately turned into a bitter gourd face.
Before, he thought that with the premise of heavy snow blocking the road, he could live a worry-free life this winter, but he didn't expect that there was such an anti-heaven method in this world as using magic teleportation.
Wouldn't it be doomed if the portal had been opened not far from Hammondale, or if it had simply been opened directly in the town or castle?
Maybe one night while he was asleep, the elven scimitar suddenly landed on his neck.
Thinking of this, Jian Chen couldn't help but feel a little cold and swishing on his neck.
