Chapter 337: No Difficult Task
"Elder!"
Seeing Luther walking out of the house, Nora hurriedly greeted her, but the latter waved her hand: "There will be no elders in the future, just call me Grandpa Luther." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
It is true that it should be called this by generation, but Nora is obviously not very accustomed to this change, and what else to say, but Luther continued: "Learn more from a few grandparents to use the language I speak, do you understand? ”
"Yes, yes. ”
Nora hurriedly responded, her eyes involuntarily looking at the manor where Roddy was currently living - now she no longer had the fear she had before, but she was full of curiosity about the lord and the soldiers around her: how strong were these guys who looked lazy and sat in the house all day to patrol in line?
Just as he was thinking, the peace in the village was broken by a giant bird falling from the sky. Nata flew down before the giant bird was about to hit the ground, and without looking at the soldiers around her, she rushed directly into the manor.
In a few seconds, the wood elf ran out of the house, and immediately said something to the guards on either side.
Nora couldn't understand their words, but she could immediately feel the evil aura on the faces of the group of soldiers as they prepared for battle-they had been chatting in a low voice, they immediately began to equip their armor and weapons after a few shouts, the tall barbarian soldiers put heavy armor on each other in pairs, the huge metal tower shield was as light as nothing in their hands, and the battle axe in one hand made Nora tremble...
This kind of guy like a steel can, she felt that she couldn't break through the defense with all her strength.
One of the soldiers ran up to Elder Luther and said a few words, who nodded solemnly, and when the soldier left, he whispered, "Damn it... These undead are actually here!"
"Nora, go tell all the people who can fight, go to the house and get the armor and weapons. Lord Roddy said... Prepare for an engaging battle. ”
Nora's face turned pale suddenly, she didn't expect that the war would come within two days of good days. Especially since the enemy is still the undead who terrified the Tevling people... This shadow, which has been ingrained in her bones for decades, makes it almost difficult for her to raise any fighting spirit.
Tevelyn had become so accustomed to solving problems by "running away" that "fighting" had become almost an unattainable order.
"Grandpa Luther, I..."
"What are you doing! Go! Do you think this is a joke? Not only you, but our old bones have also been notified that they are going to war!"
At Luther's roar, Nora bit her lip and responded, and then called out to the other nineteen people in Teflin who were enough to be called "warriors", and after receiving the short sword and leather armor that did not fit well, she was formed into a team with Luther and the other five elders, and followed a group of tall barbarian soldiers to the predetermined line outside the village.
"Fight head-on..."
Nora held the short sword in her hand unfamiliarly, she had never used a similar weapon in her life, and looked around, and the young Tevelyn who came out with her were all white lips and followed in a trance, obviously full of fear of the upcoming battle. Luther and several elders were also nervous, not knowing what their fate would be.
The entire combat team under Luo Di's command only added up to about a hundred people, so all the soldiers were even more sparse when they entered the woods outside the village, and at a glance there was not even a so-called "battle formation".
"So... Can it really work?"
All the Tevelins looked at the dense forest that was gradually making noise in front of them, and their hearts were blank.
Not far away, Melinthera looked at these Tevelin, whose legs were trembling a little, and said to Roddy with a smile: "Why are you still letting them come out?
"I didn't plan for them to actually go up and fight. Roddy looked like he was looking ahead, but he actually switched "Tracking: Demons" to "Tracking: Undead". He stared at the spot of light on the map that was getting closer, and raised his hand to take off the waterproof cover on the bow, "After all, it's not my race, and if you want to make them less messy in the future, you have to get vaccinated now..."
"What is a vaccination?"
Akasha, who was holding the scepter on the side, asked strangely.
"Uh... Tongue. ”
Luo Di reached out to help her tug at the hood that covered the rain, and advised: "Don't cast spells yourself until you have to, you can stay in peace in the rear in this battle." ”
He looked at the ten high elf mages who had dispersed, but he smiled bitterly: "How can I have a delusion, as if you are the orthodox necromancer..."
Akasha didn't speak, just smiled softly.
On the side, Mai Linse raised his hand to release the anti-detection enchantment, his expression a little stiff.
Riding on a galloping horse, Dasco's mood was a little nervous.
They followed the team in front of them for a day, but strangely found that the other party did not seem to be planning to attack the village to destroy the food, but went straight to the edge of the human territory, apparently aiming for a specific target.
Dasco brought with him some of the strongest of the "Awakened" in order to win the battle as best possible - no matter what the other party's intentions were, they were enemies after all, and Dasco had made up his mind: this battle must be won beautifully. That's the only way... In the aftermath, the rest of the "Awakened" will be better able to obey his orders.
"They slowed down, probably in preparation to get closer to the target. ”
Tachris on the side spoke up to judge. He is the strongest necromancer in the team, so in terms of tracking, Dasco and the others are judging based on his detection results, and at present, through ground traces and Tarkris's reconnaissance, it can be confirmed that the front team is a reconnaissance team of about 100 people, and there seems to be only one necromancer in it, and the level is not high.
"Slow down and get closer, prepare for a surprise attack, we must end the battle quickly!"
Dasco gave orders to his men around him. This time, the "Awakened" came with a total of one hundred and forty people, including seven necromancers who were not weak in addition to Tarkris, which was enough to deal with the team in front of them from any angle.
"Let's hope everything goes well..."
He drew his sword and slowly touched it forward.
"Heh, a bunch of stupid traitors. ”
Yugsa, dressed in red and white robes, sneered, and the bone wand spun around her fingertips and inserted it into the special socket on the side of the saddle.
As the necromancer appointed by Augustine to capture Tevelin, he is naturally not on the same level as those "three-legged cats".
"Necromancer" is a general term, which can be called a necromancer by deploying some potions to summon a skeleton, and can summon an army of the dead to use forbidden spells, but the difference between them is very different. Within the Tasman, there is also a hierarchy among the mages, the most obvious sign of which is the official robe form. The obvious characteristics of the rank from low to high are that the colors are getting lighter and lighter, the robes are more and more patterned, and the emblems on the chest are becoming more and more complex.
In the team of Dasco and the others, Tarkris is only the blue-robed level as the strongest necromancer, and the other seven are all black-robed, that is, the lowest level.
In terms of Roddy's level division, Yugsa is the existence of the full level of the basic level and the advanced level of 30, while Tarkris is only the advanced level of level 7, not only the huge difference in level and equipment makes the difference in strength between the two sides not ordinarily large.
"This kind of flawed tracking technique dares to show embarrassment, which shows that these guys are not so good. ”
Yugsa was accompanied by four mages with red stripes in their robes, and one of them waved his hand to cast a gray-white enchantment, subtly interfering with the "reconnaissance technique" coming from behind with magic fluctuations, making the information obtained by Tarkris go very wrong.
"Those 'xenos' are just around the corner, and I don't want to be startled by going back and dealing with this group of shit now. Yugesa's face looked to be about thirty, and his face was full of confidence and unspeakable pride. After all, as a mage appreciated by Augustine the Great, the resources and access he obtained were among the best among the Tasman. From any point of view, this kind of mage from the "regular academic class aristocracy" is not comparable to the group of guys in the back.
So Yugsa didn't pay attention to Dasco's team at all, he waved his hand and said, "Tasili, Moros, let them go around for a while, and when I'm done cleaning up the xenos, I'll lead the team over and clean them up." ”
"Yes, Lord Baron!"
The two red-robed necromancers who have advanced to level 20 are all supplied by the royal family with gorgeous equipment, not to mention blocking Dasco's team, it is not difficult to kill them directly when they are well prepared. Only arranging two people to block the team in the rear is enough to prove that Yugesa is not arrogant in terms of strategy, and his mind is very clear.
After arranging these tasks, Yugsa cast several spells in succession, and his bone staff was given by Augustine to reward him for breaking through the level 30 barrier, which was powerful and fast, but in a minute, he used four hidden enchantments to envelop the team in succession.
The hundred-man cavalry team has not been tired at all since they broke away from the army of the undead, because they are all well-trained skeleton horses under their crotches, these pale-skinned horses with blue eyes are strong in endurance, and their weight carrying capacity is even twice that of ordinary horses. At present, although the number of this cavalry team is small, it is all well-armed heavy cavalry.
"Prepare for battle, remember the tasks assigned by His Majesty, we can't let go of any 'xenomorph', understand?"
"Yes, Lord Baron!"
Then Yugza and the two remaining mages began to perform the "pre-battle summoning" - the remains of the old corpses accumulated for countless years within a radius of hundreds of meters were awakened one after another, because of the proximity to the village, the number of undead summoned creatures such as zombies and skeletons soon exceeded six hundred, and continued to increase with the staff held high by Yugsa.
"Strengthen!"
Released by Augustine's own enchanted spell, the originally thin and wilted zombie skeletons were instantly wrapped in gray mist, and then possessed broad bones and muscular bodies, full of agility in their actions, and their strength suddenly rose a step higher than when they were first summoned.
The strength of these undead creatures has reached the strength of normal human elite soldiers, and at this time, with high-level necromancers, they can be described as full of power on the battlefield.
Casting a spell again to confirm the location of Teflin ahead, Yugsa waved the reins with satisfaction, and led the surrounding troops, which had numbered nearly a thousand, towards the village in front of him...
"What an effortless task. ”
He sighed. (To be continued.) )
