"It's really lively outside!" Barrett, who was watching through the shooting hole, took a bite of his breakfast—two large pieces of garlic bread with lettuce salad and sliced sausages in two.

If you can provide fresh food, it can really help to keep morale up. Unfortunately, the current hot weather is not conducive to food preservation. Although with the resources in the temple of the 'Goddess of Wealth and Commerce', it is not impossible to preserve fresh ingredients. But to spend the resources of the temple on such a thing in wartime, even the most life-conscious church leaders would not agree.

So in the stormy season, the temple has purchased a large number of sausages, bacon, and cheese as reserves - the last piece of fresh meat has been sacrificed to their own internal organs temple by the players last night. Because Dongquan Town was only caught in the war last night, lettuce or something can be guaranteed in a day or two. However, if the temple had been besieged for a longer period of time, everyone would have been able to hope for the sprouts of water.

"At least we can be sure now that the cooperation between the damned pirates and the mammoths seems to be quite problematic." Claudia, who was also holding breakfast in her hand, had a smile on her face at the moment.

Barrett, who turned his head, responded, "It's not like you little girl who sleeps in the house." We knew this kind of thing last night. When the temple was attacked, none of the pirates appeared. I thought there would be a conflict between the two of them! Now it seems that I am thinking too much. ”

"Please! Barrett, can you stop mentioning my mess about last night? Claudia was clearly reluctant to recall that image. Some men may seem indifferent beforehand, but for women, it is extremely important.

Barrett smiled and stuffed the rest of the breakfast into his mouth, then closed his mouth and continued to observe the changes in the square. The mammoth barbarians from the north had somewhat recovered their spirits after a night's rest. Although the declining morale has not yet returned to the right track, it seems that it is finally out of the bottom.

It's a pity that the temple of the 'goddess of wealth and commerce' in front of me is really a hard bone to gnaw. Mammothmen who had enough of suffering yesterday. Now there is no desire to attack. Only the leader of the Milktooth Tribe, Nohar, then stared viciously at his own soldiers. It's a pity that he also understands now that there is no good way to deal with those who will disobey.

In fact, after the failure of last night's offensive, Nuhar was caught in a dilemma. The temple of the goddess of wealth and commerce has far more defenses than previously expected. The ballistae brought down from the ship had no noticeable effect on the temple's exterior walls or even the gates. The plan to break through from the roof also failed because of the opponent's extraordinary elite guards.

Mage Shoshone who lost a previous battle. The message is very clear. Combined with the words of the mammoth warriors who saved their lives after falling. Stopping them on the rooftops last night was a trio of warriors, warrior monks, and magicians - although the soldiers hadn't seen Rielly the previous time, the news of Mage Shoshone had a greater impact on the mammoth officers. In their opinion, the soldiers were probably defeated because the enemy was too strong to even notice the mage's existence.

After summing up the reasons for last night's failure, Master Shoshone once said with great certainty: "If it weren't for the lack of information at the beginning, I would have been able to solve the three guys who were not at the Black Lead rank yesterday ......"

After hearing this, Nuhar, who was already excited, immediately prepared to ask Master Shoshone to organize another ascent to the summit. But Master Shoshone, who had just made such a statement, bluntly refused: "Didn't you hear me say last night? I consumed too many resources in that battle, and I lost a lot of followers. Before the replenishment is completed. As you are, you're not qualified to let me go on an adventure. ”

When Nuhar heard this, his expression was not to mention how wonderful it was. Of course, Master Shoshone didn't think he was talking big before. According to his estimation, as long as he prepares spells for the characteristics of the three Barretts, he will definitely be able to succeed in eliminating these people. The only thing to worry about is the risk you have to take.

If it was true, he would have been protected by personal guards, so he naturally didn't need to worry about this aspect. The strength of those followers is not enough to determine the victory, but it is enough to protect him. In addition, in last night's battle, he had to consume several one-time props in order to win in the end. It also affected the strength he was able to play to some extent.

In this way, the risk of capsizing in the gutter during the battle is greatly increased. Especially the combat effectiveness shown by Barrett before, Master Shoshone thought that if the other party gave up everything. There is a real risk of dying with oneself. Although he didn't think the other party would take such a risk, Master Shoshone was still reluctant to put his precious life on the casino.

In fact, for that judgment. Master Shoshone made a glaring mistake. In fact, if he could unplug the equipment of Master Shoshone, Barrett didn't really mind the wear and tear of a resurrection stone. Of course, as a high-level mage, Shoshone would never put himself in danger.

In the eyes of the Shoshone mage, who has the arrogance of a spellcaster, his own life is much more important than this action. Even the entire population in the square was trapped in the Seven Cities Alliance, and as long as he could return to the Mammoth Dynasty alive, the loss would be acceptable - the resources and talents needed to train high-level mages. For the Mammoth Dynasty, known as the Magical Wasteland, it is indeed a matter that requires luck in addition to accumulation.

In fact, the reason why Master Shoshone dared to bring his guards to fight on the front line last night was largely because he believed that there was no existence in the temple of the 'Goddess of Wealth and Commerce' in front of him that could threaten his life. So after discovering that the operation was not as safe as he had imagined, Master Shoshone shrank back in shame.

But in terms of the situation in the western continent. Master Shoshone would not have acted in a way that any sane person (including the already angry Nohar) would point to. Because mages who dare to go to the front line instead of hiding behind to cast spells are very rare in the Western Continent. Like Master Shoshone Mage's actions last night, I'm afraid that there is no second mage in the entire Mammoth Dynasty who is willing to repeat it.

What's more, the value of mages is not only reflected on the battlefield, but also ordinary production work. Therefore, in the army, mages often have a lot of freedom. The more lacking the caster's organization, the less restrictive this aspect becomes. So don't look at the Shoshone mage who was arranged by the dynasty to assist the Mastodon tribe. But Nuhar did not have the power to command the other party. So after throwing things in anger again, there was little progress in Nourhar's battle plan.

Compared to the mammoth leader in the square, Barrett in the temple behaved very leisurely. In his opinion, the enemy in the square could not organize a decent offensive in a short time, and the supplies in the temple were enough for them to support the siege for a long time.

Unfortunately, not everyone was in such a good mood as Barrett, and the Reverend Gatsby, who had completed his daily homework, sighed when he came to him and said, "I didn't expect you to guess it right." Those guys didn't mean to retreat after dawn. I just don't know what the situation is like over there? I don't know when they'll be able to reinforce us. ”

"Don't put your hopes in someone else. Since the other party dares to set up camp here. Naturally, he was sure to deal with the soldiers of those guards. Barrett reminded solemnly, "Don't forget my guess last night. ”

Pastor Gatsby has no objection to this: "I've just sent word to the temple in Walkerson. If the Mammoth Dynasty really makes any big moves, they should let us know in time. ”

"But now that this situation is in this situation, I'm afraid that the intelligence network of the 'Goddess of Wealth and Commerce' church within the Seven Cities Alliance has also been greatly affected! In particular, those public news channels may have a lag far greater than in the past. At this voice, Rielly, who had come out of the hallway, shook her finger lightly.

Rieli's worries weren't unfounded. Because whatever the work is, it has to be done by people in the end. The losses caused by Operation Snow Mountain have overstretched the Church of the Goddess of Wealth and Commerce within the Seven Cities Alliance. No matter how perfect the organizational structure is, there will still be problems in this situation.

Pastor Gatsby also frowned at this time: "This shouldn't be. If it's ordinary intelligence. Maybe it will be delayed because of this. But if war really breaks out, I don't think any limited resources will affect it. ”

"I hope so! However, if war really breaks out, can we wait for the Seven Cities Alliance to break the siege? At this point, Rieli paused, then lowered her voice: "Pastor Gatsby, do you know if there is a quick evacuation channel in the temple. If we can't hold it out, will we be able to escape? ”

"Don't worry! If we can't hold on, we still have a way to get away from the mammoths outside. After a brief moment of silence, Pastor Gartzby returned with a stiff expression.

Rielly patted her deep pocket, "If that's the case." Then we can rest assured. ”

"If there's nothing to do with the two of you, then I'll go first. Those squires are so good at making trouble. If I'm away for too long, the average temple guard won't be able to hold it down. With that, the Reverend Gatsby began to turn away.

When he was gone, Rielly suddenly turned to Barrett and asked, "How credible do you think of Pastor Gatsby's statement just now?" ”

"If you're talking about retreat channels, I can only say it's unlikely." Then Barrett touched his chin, "This temple is so perfect. There is definitely a way to evacuate urgently. But judging from Reverend Gatsby's performance, he may know that there is such a thing. But he probably doesn't know how to use it, or he can't do it. ”

"Did there be a problem with the handover?" Rielly nodded in understanding. After all, when the previous high-level of the temple went to the Snow Mountain, they didn't expect that their group would never go back like this. Therefore, at the time of the handover, it is not necessary to inform the pastor Gatsby, who was not of sufficient rank, to inform some secrets.

"If only I don't know exactly how to use it. Reverend Gatsby should be able to ask about Walkerson's temple as well. Claudia, who had been quiet for a while, suddenly spoke, "So I'm more worried that Reverend Gatsby doesn't have the ability to use that method." ”

Unlike reality, in this world with supernatural abilities, the way to retreat from a besieged stronghold is not as simple as a secret passage. A wide variety of teleportation spells offer many expensive yet convenient and safe options. For example, players who easily teleported inside and outside the temple yesterday would never believe that there was no means of teleporting over long distances here. However, the gap between the two is still quite obvious, even if the inherent magic circle is activated, whether the strength of Pastor Gatsby meets the conditions, the hearts of players are still uncertain.

"That's the situation, let's talk about it later! If it really doesn't work, I'll just use flying to break through. Rielly said confidently, "Just act suddenly." We have more than one way to get out of Wintersprings before those guys out there react. When I got out into the wilderness, it wasn't easy for them to surround me again. ”

"It's a viable way. However, the most important thing at the moment is to block the enemy's attack first. Barrett, who turned his gaze back to the observation hole, squinted his eyes, "The previous operation has failed. I think the other side will change their siege strategy. ”

Rielly didn't pay much attention to this: "The guys out there are just so poorly prepared. Without decent siege weapons, they wanted to breach the fortress-type temple unless they waited for the defenders to be unable to carry it themselves. Even if you want to open the skylight again, do you think the high-level mage from last night is still willing to move? ”

After all, the mage knew the mage better than the others, and Rielly immediately guessed the state of mind of the mage Shoshone now.

"It's really impossible to open the skylight. However, if you dig tunnels, I think the temple will also have special means to deal with it! After all, on the battlefield, that kind of tactic appears quite often. Barrett, who looked back, said. (To be continued.) )
