Chapter Ninety-Four: An Interesting Woman

While the Cozy Cloak is effective at keeping the cold at bay, it's only when you're actually sitting by the fire that you feel a visceral warmth – just how weird and awkward sapient beings are. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Lilinda, can you tell me what Lucia's army is going on in this direction? With the configuration of your team, you don't dare to take action. Barrett, who had just settled down, immediately asked about his most important concerns. Because this determines the success or failure of the player's next action.

"How do you know we're not moving?" Before Lilinda Boreham could reply, the druid girl beside her, known as Vikari, spoke first.

Then Claudia took over with a grin: "If you really have any big moves, how can you still nest in this village." Aren't you afraid that the Lucians will implicate the inhabitants of this place when they retaliate? Besides, isn't it because your actions have been frustrated that the territory has arranged for us to come? ”

"You say that as if you were doing your job there successfully?" Although Vicari couldn't refute this, his words were full of sarcasm.

And just before Claudia's face changed, Clmatis reached out and put his hand on his friend's shoulder. Immediately after pulling him behind him, the pastor affiliated with the Goddess of Wealth and Commerce church took the opportunity to say, "We're not very successful! The previous commotion was so noisy that it seemed to offend the Lucians. Before we received the order for reinforcements, we had already been asked by the territory to temporarily retreat to avoid the limelight. ”

Lady Vicari blushed as she left, and then she turned her head away from speaking. And after Ms. Lilinda Boreham and Barrett looked at each other when they saw this scene, both of them had a helpless wry smile on their faces. At the same time, it also made Barrett have a new judgment in his heart: "Sure enough, it is better to see than to hear, and Lilinda does not seem to be as arrogant as some people say." But the people in the family shouldn't be deliberately spreading rumors, is it the impression left by the past? ’

Youthful exuberance is destined to be inevitable. Especially when young people are vigorous and have some skills, it is easy to become self-centered. Although it will not become an older secondary two disease, the undisguised sense of superiority when meeting peers cannot be concealed.

And when these arrogant aborigines meet with players who are born with a sense of superiority, a collision of needles against wheat is inevitable. But now both sides are grasshoppers on a rope, and naturally it is impossible to wield knives and guns - that would be too hurtful. But when it comes to talking, the one has become a little unscrupulous.

As the battle of words escalated, the number of participants in the two teams became more and more numerous. Barrett, who shook his head with a wry smile, was really inconvenient to organize at this time. So I had to get up and leave quietly. Not long after he stepped out of the room, Ms. Lilinda Boreham also got up and walked over.

"I really didn't expect such a thing to happen as soon as we met." Ms. Lilinda Boreham stepped over the threshold and let the cold wind blow through her hair.

Barrett looked up at the gloomy sky slightly: "This is not necessarily a bad thing, for young people, I am afraid it will also be a good way to communicate emotions." As long as you don't get your hands dirty, everything is not a hassle. ”

"If you don't do it, it's not a problem!" Lady Lilinda Boreham was stunned for a moment, and then her apricot eyes turned into two crescents: "It seems that this is indeed the case." ”

"Since our companions seem to be busy with other things, shouldn't we, as family members, continue exchanging information? I don't know exactly what kind of enemy you're going to face this time, but judging from your previous performances, it's definitely a tough guy to deal with. Barrett, who wasn't ready to continue playing tricks, tried to turn the conversation back to normal.

Ms. Lilinda Boram on the side also nodded at this time: "We are here with the Praetorian Guards directly under the command of the Lucia royal family, and they are very troublesome opponents in all aspects. So even though we have a certain advantage in the jungle, we can only observe cautiously and dare not make any big moves. ”

"The Praetorian Guard, under the direct command of the Lucian royal family?" After repeating the sentence, Barrett's forehead immediately crept into wrinkles, "If I'm not mistaken, most of the people who lead the royal guards in Lucia are official knights!" If that's the case, the clan shouldn't have rerouted us for reinforcements, but you should have given up the harassment mission. ”

"Who knows? Maybe the family has already calculated that the other horseman doesn't have time to care about us. Although Ms. Lilinda Boreham didn't get it through, Barrett understood that the lady in front of her also saw the cattleness in it.

Then he shook the snow off his body: "Okay! If it weren't for the Knights, I think we would still have a chance. It's just that in the Praetorian Guard, which is directly under the command of the Lucia royal family, it is said that there are still members of their world-famous Champion Cavalry Regiment. How to act still has to be well planned. ”

"Champion riders? We have a way to deal with those guys. At this point, Ms. Lilinda Bolum tilted her head slightly.

Hearing this, Barrett slapped his forehead twice: "Indeed, I almost forgot your strengths. You may not be able to deal with those riders, but it will be very easy for you to deal with their horses. Without the help of the mounts, the strength of those champion riders dropped by at least 30%, and the threat dropped by more than 50%. It would have been much easier to deal with then. ”

"That's right! Without mounts, Lucia's trump card is nothing more than a group of high-ranking infantrymen. Ms. Lilinda Boreham said with a slight smugness.

It's a little different from the rumors, but you can still vaguely feel the shadow in the rumors. It seems that something happened later that caused some change in personality. Unfortunately, preconceived notions seem to have been ingrained in the eyes of some...... Barrett, who suddenly had such ideas in his mind, then threw them out of his mind.

In fact, the rumours Barrett had heard in Boreham were exactly what he had guessed. In the past, Lilinda Boreham has been a well-known tigress among the younger generation of Boreham leaders. Moreover, during the period of the so-called eighteen changes of the female university, her character seems to have changed little because of the inheritance--which made some of the children of the family who had great hopes for this completely dead, and could only tremble and submit to her obscenity.

But things eventually turned around. It is absolutely not possible to improve the strength of the car behind closed doors, and after reaching a certain level, you must go out to experience to continue to improve. Lady Lilinda Boreham's personality only changed after she left the territory. In addition to the two druids who had been together from the beginning, the rest of her companions had been found during her adventures.

Of course, Barrett didn't delve further into the hidden nature of this at this time, he was more concerned about the next task: "But I'm still a little worried that the mounts of the champion riders are at least 'magical creatures'. Some of them may even be magical beasts. Although druids have a good way of dealing with most creatures. But it's hard to say how effective it will be against them. Know that the light cavalry of the Brackepur family that we faced before, their mounts were able to endure the effects of fireballs and thorns and continue to fight. If we don't solve it in the first place, I'm afraid that many of us in the team will become a pulp under their feet. ”

The so-called 'magically bred creatures' are a way of cultivating animal breeds by means of magic. In the beginning, experiments were similar to the development of new creatures based on the rare intelligence and supernatural abilities and spell-like abilities of magical beasts. However, this idea did not fully succeed in the end, not only because the chances of success were extremely low, but also because a large number of things like the Chimera were made. Then the researchers were able to reduce the difficulty and instead study the oblivion of adapting to the multitude of daily life work. These enchanted animals are called "magically bred animals".

In general, a bred animal appears to be a beautiful individual, sometimes in rare color schemes, including colors that are not seen in nature. Their appearance is often slightly exaggerated, and they have features that emphasize eugenics: for example, the Mobred horse has excellent large shoulder muscles. And the Mobred has a unique long trunk in order to chase the work.

Aside from the changes in appearance, because of the special breeding experience, magically bred animals are often better trained and domesticated than ordinary animals. Their physical stats are much higher than those of their normal counterparts - +4 for one physical stat (Strength, Agility, Constitution) or +2 for two physical stats for base creatures. At the same time, it can also cultivate a series of special enhancements such as fast varieties, rough skin varieties, and tracking varieties.

If it weren't for the fact that the cost of cultivation is too high to spread on a large scale. The domesticated animals of human society have probably long been replaced by these best creatures. And the champion cavalry regiment of the Lucia Kingdom, as the elite of the elite, is naturally able to afford such an expensive creature. Even the best of them are given magical beasts like Dragon's Blood Mounts.

Whether they are domesticated by magic or born magical beasts, their resistance to druid methods is far greater than that of ordinary natural creatures. So even though there were a large number of wilderness creatures among his comrades this time, Barrett still beat a drum in his heart. Even if their targeting operation failed, Barrett was confident that he would be safe. But he was not sure that he would be able to save his companions in that environment. Even if players have a chance to resurrect, every death is a big loss.

"It's understandable that you're going to have that kind of worry. But since we have such a plan, we will not be completely unprepared. Speaking of this, Ms. Lilinda Bolum paused, "But we are not unaware of the situation of those Lucians, and when it comes to the time to do it, we are naturally quite sure." The threat of those cavalry is definitely not as great as you think. ”

"Alright! Hopefully. Otherwise, don't blame us for retreating first. Barrett frowned, but eventually offered to believe Ms. Lilinda Boreham's account.

Ms. Lilinda Boreham, who found that Barrett did not refuse, was also relieved, and she patted Barrett on the shoulder: "Don't worry! I'm not going to give you that chance. Even though they have undergone unnatural transformation, they still have their own weaknesses. Even if we can't solve it all at once, we are sure to completely disrupt the opponent's charging formation. And it's only a small detachment here, and they don't have enough countermeasures. ”

Just like Barrett said before, if the mount of the Champion Cavalry Regiment is so easy to deal with, how can the Kingdom of Lucia use it as one of its trump cards! But what Lilinda Boram said couldn't be wrong. Although the resistance of those special mounts is strong, there is still a way to do it as long as it is arranged in a targeted manner.

Of course, this arrangement, as she later suggested, could only be used against enemies in the form of squads. Because in Lucia, if the champion cavalry regiment is dispatched on a large scale, it will inevitably be assigned to a not weak mage regiment as a collaborator. And with the escort of those guys, most of the means will be countered and become ineffective.

"Really? If that's the case, I'm not afraid to take a gamble? Barrett sighed, "Tell me about your plans!" ”

"Specific plans? Our plan is simple, just to prepare for a constant ambush of Lucia's rangers in the wild. Then see their main forces attract some of them. As long as you eat that portion, it will be enough for the Lucians not to dare to move. Ms. Lilinda Boram said with a little embarrassment.

"It's as simple as that?" Barrett was stunned for a moment, and then immediately asked, "Isn't there anything suitable for dealing with those Lucians in the terrain around here?" ”

"If there's anything suitable for the terrain, do you think I'd be willing to use this rough plan?" Miss Lilinda Boreham immediately craned her neck and blushed, "We have a lot more experts in this area than you do. But the surrounding environment is an open plain, and there is a small amount of woodland that the Lucians simply walk around. It's like trying to attract them to it is also unlikely. After all, the other party came this time to be their elite. (To be continued.) )
