Chapter 304: Infiltration
We couldn't fly too close, we just took a look from afar and landed quickly, and then waited for night to fall. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
This is inevitable, Onexia is the black dragon princess, her lair is not only strong in ground defense, but also in the air, although we do not see an adult dragon like Onexia soaring in the sky, but there are many young dragons, and launching a surprise attack from the air will be the first to attract the attention of the enemy.
As for the ground infiltration, it will have to wait until the night, and at this time, it will not be possible to run over and be dumpled by the dragon man in minutes.
When the sun set, Sal, Gianna and Bridget began to eat, and the food was very simple, just some bread and spring water, but this is it, and it is also the envy of us dead people, when will we be able to eat as normally as the living?
The dream is far away, and the road is long, so it's not time to be cranky, and when the three of us have finished eating, we begin to discuss how we can sneak into Onexia's lair quietly.
A royal terror guard named Jason said, "After initial reconnaissance, the defenses outside Onexia's lair are not strong, and the dragonmen's guards are just doing their business, and they probably never thought that anyone could find them in the depths of the Dust Swamp. ā
Sylvanas nodded and said, "That's good news, but it's not enough, I need a path that I can dive into, and if you go to explore, you must find the enemy's defensive blind spots." ā
"Yes!" Jason replied, and the figure faded until it disappeared before our eyes.
Sal said enviously: "The forsaken are indeed ghosts hiding in the shadows, and six of the ten royal terror guards are proficient in concealment assassination, which is very powerful." ā
Gianna also said, "Not only that, but the Forsaken are not afraid of fire and poison, and are the best candidates to enter Onexia's lair." ā
Sylvanas looked at the red glow in the sky and didn't pick up, Sal and Gianna were right, but they didn't expect that the forsaken were all people with tortured souls, mutilated bodies, madness and bloodthirsty hearts, and flaws were the most important thing compared to the "advantages" of concealing assassination and not being afraid of fire and poison.
Sylvanas didn't speak, and Sal and Gianna felt a little embarrassed, and they looked at each other and smiled wryly, then shut up, and for a moment, the scene fell silent.
The second reconnaissance took much longer than the first, the first time was just a circle in front of Onexia's lair, but the second time it was necessary to find out the distribution of enemies outside the lair, patrol tracks, blind spots, and infiltration routes...... There are too many things to scout, and they must be foolproof, otherwise Onexia will detect them and rush out of the lair and fly into the sky, and it will be over.
Five hours later, the moon was already high in the sky, and the moonlight, obscured by a thin layer of clouds, was not bright, but could only illuminate a radius of no meters, which was very helpful for our infiltration.
Jason has returned, along with the other five Royal Terror Guardians, and the six thieves have gathered around to share information and discuss their infiltration routes after reporting to Sylvanas.
As for us, we just need to wait for the results, or simply wait for them to follow them after they have discussed, after all, we are not scouts, after all, we have not seen the distribution of enemies with our own eyes, after all, there is a specialization in the arts...... So, it's okay to wait.
During the deliberations of the six, Sylvanas sometimes interjected a few words, but only for some strategic guidance, and she did not mention a specific course of action.
Another hour, Jason and the others finally negotiated the best route to infiltrate.
"Your Majesty, we will follow this river here, and then go ashore and pass through here, and then all the way north, then west, and finally from the northwest into the lair of Onexia, and in this there are two points that are very dangerous, one is here, and the other is here, and the whole team must remain quiet, and must be under my command." Jason explained to Sylvanas the map they had drawn on the ground.
This is a route with many detours, from the southeast where we are now staying around most of the enemy's positions, and finally enter from the northwest, the route is quite complicated, but from Jason's mouth it is clear and clear, it can be seen that in order to sneak in, Jason and several thieves have indeed wasted a lot of effort.
A hint of pride flashed in Sylvanas' eyes, and he said to Sal and Gianna, "Do you two have anything to add?" ā
"The route is very well arranged, I don't have anything to add." Sal said.
Gianna pondered for a moment and said, "I can use magic to hide our tracks a little. ā
"No, dragonmen are sensitive to magic fluctuations, and if you don't want to be discovered, you'd better not use any magic." Jason said.
Gianna raised her eyebrows a little unconvinced, but she didn't say anything against it, Jason could stop himself so rudely, he must have seen the dragonman's sensitivity to magic fluctuations.
"Okay, in that case, let's go, Jason, you lead the way." Sylvanas said, standing up.
Jason nodded in response, and then quietly walked in the direction of Onexia's lair.
The moonlight tonight is very dark, which brings great convenience to our infiltration, walking and stopping all the way, passing through countless dragonmen guarding the defense line, some are very far away from the dragonmen, and some are close to within ten meters, but the visual blind spots and auditory blind spots have been planned, so there is a surprise but no danger.
Among them, I also saw two very dangerous places that Jason said, one is the patrol node of five teams of dragonmen, and the eyes of dragonmen gather there all the time, but in such a well-defended place, Jason took us over one by one without alarming any dragonmen.
The other was a camp of dragonmen, I don't know why I had to go close to the edge of the camp, but I knew that this must be the best route that Jason and the others had planned, and it was thrilling and exciting, and I could even hear the snoring of the dragonmen, which gave me the illusion that I was going to be discovered.
The two most dangerous places were safely passed, everyone's tense spirits were relaxed, and we were about to arrive at the Dragon's Lair, so we were even more relaxed.
But this is also when the emergency happened, just as he was about to enter the dragon's lair, Gianna attracted a dragonman who had just turned around with a long whirlwind, but in the next moment, a dagger suddenly appeared above the dragonman's head, and a royal terror guard who was always vigilant against the surrounding enemies gave the dragonman a timely blow.
"Drag that dragonman into the hole, hurry!" Jason whispered. (To be continued.) )
