Chapter 384: Attack Delay

In any case, if the enemy did have the strength to conjure a fortress out of thin air in just a few days, it would definitely not be a good thing for Nightfeng, so he had to see it for himself before he could decide on his next battle plan. 35xs

He brought Dambara because of his erudite knowledge of magic, and the Black Lookout because his eyes had been modified by evil alchemists, as if he were born with the effects of Eagle Eye.

The most important thing is that this kind of innate ability will not produce magic fluctuations because of this, so it will be sensed by powerful wizards.

Nightfeng still remembered that this time, in addition to the superb Royal Navy guards, there was also a powerful mysterious court wizard!

Therefore, the black lookout, whose eyes have been modified by black magic, is the best person to wait for a moment to investigate.

As for the other pirate scout, Nightfeng let him lead the remaining pirates to follow slowly, and he was relieved to have the loyal Viking berserker Huska in charge.

After arranging his departure, he took Dembala into the dark jungle on a dire wolf, and the other black lookouts and the pirate scout followed him in the Hunter.

At this time, after only a few minutes, Ye Feng could no longer see the team behind him at all, and at the same time, he suddenly realized that the entire jungle had also begun to come alive.

The cries of a large number of animals rang out one after another throughout the jungle.

Next, although the dire wolf has always exuded the aura of a fierce beast at the top of the biological chain, there are still unknown animals who want to pull their whiskers in front of the tiger.

After dodging two wild boars, three wild wolves, and more blood-sucking insects, they finally ran out of the jungle and reached the top of the mountain.

Originally, according to the current strength of Night Blade, although most of the summoned beasts were escorting the artillery forward in the ranks of the pirates, even without the help of the summoned beasts, it would be easy to deal with the beasts he encountered according to his current strength. Flash Dance

It's just that he has two things to consider, one is that if he wants to deal with these beasts, he will inevitably waste a lot of time.

The second is that he thought of keeping the lives of these beasts, and after he has scouted, he can slowly find time to tame them, maybe a single wolf is nothing, but a group of wild wolves, even a warrior like Huska has to deal with it carefully.

When Nightfeng climbed to the top of the mountain in a dire wolf, he suddenly discovered that the top of this mountain was not an ordinary cone-shaped, but a rare half-moon.

Standing on the top of the mountain and looking into the distance, I saw that in front of me was a terrain similar to a circular basin, and the formation of this ring is a series of mountains, these mountains are generally more than a few hundred meters above sea level, which can be called a natural city wall.

It looks like a turtle in an urn, but in fact, there is a small river with a diameter of about 5 meters above this basin.

Although a river of this size, a large ship such as a warship must not be considered, but those single-track sailing lifeboats can easily sail out from the basin to the sea.

What's more, although on the other side of the mountain, that is, the side that the night front has just climbed up now, the mountain road is overgrown with tall grass.

But strangely, on the other side of the mountain, there was not a single weed growing in the bare land.

Therefore, if an enemy appears, it will be immediately discovered by the navy, and the time required to run from the top of the mountain to the basin at the foot of the mountain is at least half an hour.

And with such plenty of time, it was enough for the navy to pack up their things and leave the place along the river.

But what really surprised Yefeng was the fortress that stood majestically over the basin.

It was no different from what the scouts said, only to see a rock wall nearly ten meters high to protect the camp where the navy was stationed, and in the center of the camp, there was a stone tower more than twenty meters high. 35xs

Ye Feng could clearly feel the faint mana fluctuations from the stone tower, and after the wizard Dembala carefully observed, he even concluded that the stone tower in the center was a simple mage tower!

For wizards, fighting in the mage tower can increase the strength of the wizard several times, but according to Dembala's observation, this mage tower should be regarded as the easiest one, so the increase in the strength of the wizard will definitely not be too obvious.

In fact, the only flaw that restricts the construction of the Mage Tower is the abundance of magical materials, which is the least important thing for a court mage.

Therefore, Dembala immediately suggested to Yefeng that once the war started, then this mage tower should be destroyed as soon as possible, otherwise, the destructiveness that a wizard in the mage tower could exert would be huge.

At this time, the black lookout hand immediately reported the information he had found one by one after carefully observing it.

Most of the information was the same as what they had just seen, except that the black lookout described it in more detail, such as the fact that the center of the camp was occupied by tents except for the stone tower in the center.

The tops of these tents are made of thick buffalo leather, so even those who live in them don't have to worry if it rains, but if the water spreads, those who sleep on the grass and rocky ground will be unlucky!

And in the camp, there are two patrols patrolling around at all times, each of which is composed of five navy men, including three musketeers and two shield bearers.

Given the fighting qualities of these Royal Navy guards, it would be a fool's dream to deal with these two patrols quietly.

Therefore, in the face of such a situation, there is no other way than to attack, at least with the mind of Yefeng, there is no other good way.

However, even if you want to attack strongly, you have to work out a good attack plan, and you can't let all the troops rush forward like a swarm.

Thinking of this, Night Blade immediately whispered to Dambala and the black men to look at them, and retreat for the time being.

Obviously, it would be unrealistic to sneak up on the original plan, because the other side of the mountain was bare rocks, so even in the dark of night, there was a high chance that it would be spotted by enemy sentinels.

Don't underestimate the fighting qualities of the Royal Navy guards, unlike pirates with low willpower, they will concentrate on their surroundings even in the early hours of the morning, when their bodies are already very tired.

As when they came, after driving away n batches of beasts and blood-sucking insects, Nightblade and the others finally returned to the group.

As soon as he returned to the group, he instantly felt that his surroundings had become quiet, and the sound of the animals that had been chirping disappeared in an instant.

And when he returned to the team, they also had bad news to tell him, except that he had bad news to tell the other pirates.

It turned out that after a long period of turbulence, the wheels under a three-pounder cannon also cracked because they could not withstand such violent bumps.

Although it only took more than two hours for one of the wheels to be damaged, Ye Feng was not surprised at all.

After all, simple wheels like this, which were temporarily remodeled with oak barrel lids, were not very strong in the first place, and more importantly, they were not driven on flat gravel roads, but in rugged mountain and wooded terrain, so it was very good that they had been able to hold on to it until now.

The pirates could only use two able-bodied oarsmen to carry the three-pounder cannon that could not walk.

Then, after Nightmarrow had the other pirates move on, he gathered several pirate leaders to discuss how to deal with the miraculous fortress.

As the saying goes, three stinkers are Zhuge Liang, don't underestimate any intelligent creature.

None of the pirates doubted what Nightfeng had said, so it was no surprise that all the pirates were frowning and began to think.

Then, there was a sharpshooter who was blind in one eye, yes, although he was blind in one eye, but it also made him more dependent on the only remaining eye, which also made him have a minimum of 80 hits over 100 meters when he was aiming and shooting.

And such an achievement is very rare even among elite navies.

However, unlike when he was shooting, when he usually walked, he often bumped into things because he looked at things with one eye.

The sharpshooter, who was blind in one eye, was a slender white man, with fluffy, naturally curly blonde hair and a rather handsome face, which at first glance thought he was a woman.

It's just that the green tendons around his left eye that look like hideous centipedes will instantly dispel everyone's illusions.

I saw that the sharpshooter looked around at the pirates around him before he said slowly, "Actually, let's think about it another way, even if we have to face a stone wall that is difficult to overcome, if there is no one to defend this wall, then the actual meaning it can play is simply - zero!" ”

"No matter how steep the city defense is, there are no corresponding defenders, and it is no different from the road we usually walk."

After listening to the sharpshooter's words, Ye Feng's eyes lit up in an instant, and he realized, "I understand what you mean, that fortress occupies an area of at least hundreds of square meters, and the enemy is only a few dozen people. ”

"And that's also counting the people who were injured in the previous battle with the mermaids, and the enemy can't put all their main forces into patrolling anytime and anywhere."
