Chapter 566: Assault
Hundreds of kilograms of rocks fell from the sky, and even a hard exoskeleton would be smashed flat at once, and the crossbow arrows as thick as a wooden spear fired like a heavy crossbow were powerful enough to pierce through the alien exoskeleton armor.
In fact, the alien creature was not originally created to use the situation of two armies facing each other, and its most suitable battlefield is assassination and ambush!
In the dim and complex underground caverns, the aliens who are good at lurking can easily take out dozens of regular orc elite soldiers, but if they are facing the battle on the unobstructed plains, then a small group of half-orc soldiers is enough for the aliens to drink a pot.
Thinking of this, Ye Feng also immediately poured a large basin of cold water on the cheering dwarves: "Don't be too happy, everyone!" ”
"Although we repelled the siege of the orcs this time, we didn't leave their leader Azog behind, so in the future, it will definitely send a half-orc force that is enough to completely annihilate our strength!"
"You know, our mounts are gone, and two legs will never be able to outrun four legs!"
"So now we're going to get out of here at once!"
After listening to Ye Feng's words, the dwarves couldn't help but look at each other, but Thorin nodded calmly in agreement: "That's right! Azog would never let us go so easily! ”
After only a little tidying up, the team immediately marched in the direction of the lonely mountain.
Because he had only just repelled the attack of the orcs, he was not sure if he would be rounded up by the orcs soon, so he did not summon the dozen goblin aliens back to the space, but followed the side of the team and silently guarded them.
As for the elemental elves, they have all disappeared into this quest world for a long time, but fortunately, the skill cooldown has been fully restored, but he can re-summon them at any time.
However, he did not dismiss the sand elemental, because unlike the magma elemental, which was extremely destructive but slow, the sand elemental would definitely not travel much slower than the cavalry.
After its body is sandified, it can quickly fly in the air with the help of the wind, like a yellow ribbon.
As a result, Nightfeng has the Sand Elemental always following the team.
It is worth mentioning that when he cleaned up the battlefield just now, killing dozens of wolves also brought him more than 20,000 generic points, and even the potential points were 13 points.
If it weren't for the particularity of this mission world, he could really say that he had made a lot of money, but unfortunately, it was impossible for him to take these gains out of this mission world, so no matter how many generic points he gained, even if it was millions of general points, it would be something that he could only see but not eat!
Fortunately, these universal points can be used to improve the skill level, and this effect can be taken out of this mission world.
For the rest of the night, Yefeng and the others continued to rush without stopping at all, and they ran dozens of kilometers away.
Then, when the dawn rose, they were very tired both mentally and physically after a night of traveling.
Therefore, after Nightfeng cast a spell to summon four earthen walls to create a temporary defensive fortress, the dwarves also took advantage of this time to take a break.
Since they weren't sure if there were orc pursuers hiding around, they just boiled a pot of hot water and simply filled their stomachs with dry and hard bread.
Although the taste is not very delicious, the bread is hot water, but it is enough to fill the stomach.
And when everyone is resting, the careful Nightblade also discovers the strangeness of the hobbit Bilbo, he will always take advantage of people's unnoticed fingers to subconsciously put his fingers on his pockets.
And before this phenomenon, Ye Feng was very sure that Bilbo didn't have it, and then he immediately realized that it seemed that Bilbo should have been lucky enough to obtain the Dark Lord's artifact, the Supreme Ring, from Gollum!
However, in this regard, he did not have the idea of snatching it from Bilbo, which was naturally not his high spirit, nor did he have no intention of the artifact, but he knew very well in his heart that according to the plot of the Lord of the Rings, in fact, the contractor had many opportunities to snatch the Ring after entering the plot of the Lord of the Rings.
Because whether it is Gollum or Bilbo, or Frodo later, their combat power is nothing compared to the contractor.
And with the greed of the contractor, how can he not be tempted by an artifact like the Lord of the Rings?
But if that's the case, then wouldn't the artifact become a bargain on the street in the space?
In fact, it is not difficult for the contractor to obtain the Ring, but in order to take it out of the space, one condition must be met, that is, to kill the Dark Lord and cut off the soul connection between him and the One Ring, so that he can be taken out of this mission world.
However, as the master of almost all the evil races in Middle-earth, it is simply difficult to kill the Dark Lord!
It is worth noting that after the contractor obtains the One Ring, they will also be snatched by the plot characters who are attracted by watching the supreme power of the One Ring, whether they are on the good side or the evil side.
Therefore, if the contractor wants to truly obtain the Ring, then he must kill the Dark Lord after being snatched by a large number of characters who are attracted by greed, and then he can truly possess this artifact!
Although Ye Feng still has a little confidence in his own strength, he is not blindly arrogant enough to face the snatching of the plot characters from the entire Middle-earth who watch the Lord of the Rings.
Therefore, in the face of the almost readily available opportunity to obtain the Supreme Ring, he was very decisive in letting himself forget about the existence of the Ring, because he didn't have this strength at all!
People are always self-aware!
Therefore, in order to divert this attention, Night Feng also took advantage of this short break to improve his skill level, and at present, the only thing he can meet the requirements is the passive skill of Durability Aura, which does not require merit points and proficiency requirements.
Since the Durability Aura has now been upgraded to the critical point of LV3, it will cost 15,000 Universal Points and 15 Potential Points to upgrade it to LV4.
Before, because the potential point was not enough, he did not continue to improve.
And now, after the previous battle, he has also gained enough potential points to upgrade.
Thinking of this, he then spent fifteen thousand general points and fifteen potential points to raise the skill of durability aura from LV3 to LV4!
And when it was upgraded to the key level of LV4, four randomly selected skill effects also appeared.
A: Increases the distance that the Durability Aura skill can increase by 200 yards. (In other words, the original aura skill can only be enjoyed by allies within 800 yards, and after extracting this effect, allies within 1000 yards can enjoy the aura amplification)
B: Increases attack speed by an additional 10%.
C: Increases movement speed by an additional 5%.
D: Adds an additional 3 agility bonus.
Later, when Nightmarrow chose to draw, he extracted option D: an additional 3 points of agility bonus, which is not too bad, especially for agility-based aliens, the increase in agility attribute is better than a single increase in attack speed or movement speed.
Therefore, after his durability aura is finally upgraded to LV4, the specific attributes are:
Durable Aura LV4
Rank: Seventh Order
Use the effect to give you the Durability Aura skill, which does not need to be consumed, as long as you learn it, you can always activate it.
Skill Effect: Increases movement speed by (15%) by 20% and attack speed by (30%) 40% for self and nearby allied units within 800 yards.
LV4 Effect: Adds an additional 3 agility bonus.
Then, after a short break of more than half an hour, the dwarves also set off again.
Over the next few days, the dwarven team did not dare to stay in one place for too long, and finally managed to climb several peaks.
And after observing along the way, they also determined that there should be no half-orc scouts at the back of the team.
But despite this, Thorin is also very clear in his heart, although there is no trace of the orcs chasing them yet, but I believe that they will definitely appear again in the future, and at that time, it will not only be a small fight with only a few dozen heads like before.
Therefore, the team always rushed from day to night, and even at night, at Thorin's insistence, the team continued to hurry, and did not stop until nearly 8 or 9 o'clock in the evening!
In this way, the team has been walking for more than half a month with such high-intensity fatigue, and I don't know how many mountains have been climbed.
Anyway, in Ye Feng's eyes, these mountains are not much different, so it feels as if he has been circling between the mountains all the time.
The only pity is that during the journey for most of the month, he did not encounter a beast suitable for alien parasitism, but this is also a matter of no choice, who let them always walk along the peak above the mountain.
Here, the climate is extremely cold, and ordinary creatures can't stay at all, and occasionally encounter some snow foxes, snow rabbits, etc., and they can't be used as hosts for alien parasitism at all.
And just after the team was desperately driving like a forced march for more than half a month, the pursuers from the orcs finally appeared.
Because this time, the half-orcs dispatched as many as nearly two hundred wolf cavalry and nearly half of the half-orc riders!
With such a large team, it is impossible to hide, and if nothing else, the wolf howls alone have clearly exposed their tracks.
In the face of a half-orc pursuer of this size, it was very difficult to fight even with the assistance of the aliens, so the team immediately changed the route of travel.
The original main road was changed to a remote and difficult mountain path, to be precise, to avoid the sight of the orcs and retreat from the path.
This undoubtedly slowed down the team's marching speed, but it was also a helpless thing, after all, if they had the ability to annihilate these hundreds of half-orc pursuers without damage, then they naturally wouldn't have to reduce their speed like this.
In this way, after they had traveled in this way for nearly a week, the distance between the orcs had been reduced from a few dozen miles to less than ten miles, judging by the clarity of the dwarves' howls.
With the speed of a wolf as fast as the wind, a distance of ten miles is basically a two-hour rapid march to catch up with them.
Therefore, from this time on, after Night Blade left the little fire dragon alien in the team, he alone led the remaining summoned beasts to attack the large army of half-orcs, causing damage to them while also delaying their pursuit.
Anyway, with the agility of the Dire Wolf King and the speed of the durability aura amplification, it is very easy to get rid of the wolf chasers of the half-orcs safely.
And there are aliens in the dwarf team, and he is not afraid that he will not be able to find the dwarf team in the future.
Anyway, at this stage, the only thing that can threaten the safety of the dwarf team is the orcs chasing after him, so he can leave the team with peace of mind.
After telling the dwarves about his plan, Night Blade immediately rode the Dire Wolf King and disappeared into the mountains and forests with the blessing of everyone.
After galloping back for more than an hour, he finally saw the true strength of the enemy lurking behind a huge rock.
At this time, he was only a short distance of less than a mile away from the orcs!
There were more than 200 wolves and more than 100 orc soldiers, and what made him frown even more was that these orcs undoubtedly belonged to the category of elite creatures, because each of them not only held melee weapons in their hands, but also carried a rudimentary wooden bow on their backs!
This means that they can be used as ranged archers when needed, which is undoubtedly prepared by the enemy for possible sieges.
Because the enemy did not know about the existence of the night blade now, he did not immediately attack, but carefully examined the enemy's team configuration and the terrain on the route he came.
Prepare to give the enemy the first big gift!
Because when the enemy is prepared, it will be much more difficult to ambush and kill a large number of enemies.
After thinking about it carefully in his mind, he saw a smile on Ye Feng's face, it seemed that he should have thought of a good solution.
Then he drove the Dire Wolf King back slowly, and only galloped until he would not be detected by the enemy.
After running fast for more than ten minutes, Ye Feng also suddenly stopped on an open flat land, and on the edge of this flat land, there was a straight and steep mountain cliff.
