Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Night Attack on the Ogre Fortress
() How is the situation inside clear, St. Angel asked Yundi who inquired about the news
Huh, just now I used stealth to sneak inside, this ogre fortress is divided into two layers, Huh, the outer layer is about 80 ogre warriors, from the name, there are another 6 ogre mages commanded by two ogre leaders, Huhu, as for the inner layer - I can't get in, but there must be a lot more guards than the outer layer, Yun Di wiped the sweat on her head, panted and said, then she grabbed the kettle and gulped down the water, because with her body, it was already the limit of stealth to maintain it for so long
In the world of Olopa, there are four ways to hide people's figures
The first is the earth system magic in the earth system, the landscape is hidden, this magic can be changed according to the surrounding landscape environment, so that the caster can form a chameleon-like protective color, so that people can visually become one with the earth, this kind of magic has the advantage of low level, only the second level (basic level) magic, but the weakness is also obvious, the casting object must not move, others will not find him (her), this kind of magic is generally used in large-scale battles in ambush
The second is the spatial magic in the qi system, the principle of distortion of light and spatial transformation, which generates a distorted force field around the casting object and deflects the light, in order to deceive other people's eyes, but once it is too close to others, the invisibility effect will be invalid
The third is the chaotic magic in dark magic, Soulification, this fourth-level magic mainly quantizes the body of the caster, and then moves in the real world in a soul state, so as to hide from other people's eyes, compared to the distortion of the landscape and the distortion of light, the advantages of Soulification are very obvious, the casting object can move around, it is difficult to be detected, and if it is a mage who is soulified, they can also chant spells and cast spells in an invisible state, but under the soulification technique, the warrior cannot materialize the enemy, and if it is attacked by the soul, it will have severe consequences
All three of these methods are achieved through guò magic, but this last method of concealing one's body is a special combat technique that can be achieved without magic or elemental fluctuations, and is therefore favored by thieves and assassins who do not know magic, this method is the stealth technique often used by Yundi
The so-called stealth is an alternative combat technique, the principle of which is to interfere with the enemy's vision through the practitioner's own high-speed movement, so as to put himself into a temporary state of invisibility, stealth does not require an elemental reaction to make a person invisible, and in the invisible state, it can physically attack the enemy, which is superior to the above three methods
However, the physical energy consumed by performing stealth is huge, and it is already very good for an ordinary stealth practitioner to get a few seconds of invisibility, and maintaining invisibility for two or three minutes is even more outstanding; being able to remain invisible for ten minutes like Yun Di can only be done by a strong person who has practiced stealth to the peak, so it is normal for Yun Di to fail to dive into the inner layer, because in addition to having enough body to dive in, she also has to keep half of her body to retreat safely
Yun Di worked hard and said that St. Angel gave Yun Di a light magic, only to see that Yun Di's breathing slowed down significantly, and her body was recovering at a very fast speed
Thank you, Sister Angel, Yundi cast a grateful look at St. Angel
I wonder if the ogre has come back without the dwarves asking
It must be back, otherwise the guards wouldn't be so strict, Saint-Angel said
The three of them looked up at the ogre fortress again, unlike the battle at the mouth of the cave last night, when the old friends had taken advantage of the location to repel the ogre's attack, but now the advantage of location was in the hands of the ogre
I think there are too many guards who should attack the main gate from the side gate over there, although the three of us can win with the ability of the three of us, but it will definitely alarm the ogre Spiruk inside to propose his construction
But if we want to attack from that side gate, we must first deal with the three well-positioned sentry posts, St. Angel pointed out that the problems encountered in attacking from the side gate are very simple, Yun Di can easily solve them, but the one on the watchtower will definitely sound the alarm if he finds that the two companions below are missing, so this guard must be solved at the same time as the two below
My flying knife can't be thrown that far, Yun Di said helplessly
Then the three of them fell into deep thought again
Spiruk looked up at the Radiant Saintess as if he had thought of something, and said, "Angel heard that there seems to be a trick in the magic of light that can conjure a hammer to smash people."
What you said was that the 'Spiritual Warhammer' was not feasible, and Saint-Angel vetoed the dwarf's mention and did not comment on the accuracy of casting the 'Spiritual Warhammer' at such a distance, this magic is a master-level high-level magic, and when cast, it will induce large elemental fluctuations, which will definitely attract the attention of the ogre mage inside
If only Tismu was here, that guy's arrow would definitely be able to solve the sentry above, Yun Di said with a sigh of relief, it's all this selfish Tismu, Sister Anqi's baby is already imminent, can't he let go of his guard beast first
Yundi's casual words gave St. Angel a flash of inspiration, and she looked at the white tiger and the thunderbird sleeping in the distance
There's a way
Two minutes later, St. Angel, Spiruk Ironheart, and White Tiger Xiaobai walked lightly past the two ogre sentry posts whose throats had been cut open by the dagger and turned into corpses, and the sentry on the watchtower was also scorched by lightning at the same time as the two companions below fell—because the lightning energy was formed directly from the Thunderbird's body, it did not cause fluctuations in the external elements
The Assassin, who opened the side door quickly, beckoned her companion to hurry in, and she closed the door softly
Remember, we need to be lighter, and Yundi, who is well-versed in assassination techniques, is obviously speaking to Spiruk, who has always been very aggressive, but she is also speaking to the two guardian beasts left behind by Tismu
Xiao Bai stretched out the tiger's head and gently wiped the ground, Xiao Lan flapped his wings - the two beasts said that they could understand human speech
Under Yun Di's leadership, the three men and the two beasts hid and hid along the way, avoiding many swimming sentinels patrolling back and forth, and after nearly ten minutes of activity in the outer layer of the ogre fortress, they ushered in their first battle
A team of three ogres approached in the direction of the side door, and the old friends learned from their conversations with the other mobile sentinels on the road that they were going to hand over the three sentry posts at the side door, and it would be a problem for them to reach the side door and find the three corpses
The three old friends decided to attack from behind, one to solve one or three, the ogre had already died without snorting, and the old friends did not let the two guard beasts participate in this sneak attack, because although Xiaobai and Xiaolan understood human words, after all, it was still the monster that made a move, and they might not know the severity of it, so as to make some unnecessary sounds
They handed their backs to the two Guardian Beasts, and then moved on to take out a number of mobile posts that stood in the way, and almost all of them were stages for Yundi to perform
St. Angel and Spiruk, who were hiding in front of a relatively empty corridor, saw Yun Di rushing to the front and stretched out his hand to make a gesture representing the number nine, and then made another gesture with his palm downwards representing the number one, there were nine ogres, one of which was the ogre Saint-Angel, and read Yun Di's sign language, which was a wordless tacit understanding formed by the seven of them twenty-four years ago
Then Yundi held up another finger and made a vigorous gesture
Yundi said that it was up to her to deal with the ogre, and Saint-Angel said that as soon as the ogre fell, it would be a signal for us to attack
No problem, but you'll have to make it clear to them that Spyruk is pointing behind the White Tiger and Thunderbird
Do you hear clearly, you are each responsible for the two St. Angels said softly to the White Tiger and the Thunderbird
By the time they turned their heads back, Yundi had vanished, Spiruk lowered his shield that would slow him down, and St. Angel cast a swift blessing on himself and the dwarves
I saw that the ogre mage tilted his head and suddenly fell to the ground, and before the other ogres could react, a white and a silver figure shot at them, and behind these two figures was another even larger white figure
In an instant, three ogres had already died, under the short sword, tomahawk and tiger claws, and one of the ogres close to his old friend was about to resist, when he saw a flash of blue light, and a lightning bolt struck him through a large hole in the chest, and he died in horror
The four ogres standing in the back finally reacted, but the same death awaited them
Looking at the nine lifeless corpses, Yun Di was a little embarrassed: this place is open and will soon be discovered by other guards, so we have to act quickly
They made their way down the hallway, and finally they came to the entrance from the outer level to the inner level
At the entrance, there were about a dozen ogres guarding the entrance, including two ogres and an ogre leader, who were cooking something around a cauldron
When Yundy and St. Angel saw the contents of the pot and almost didn't vomit out what they had eaten the day, even Spiruk was dumbfounded: they—even their own kind
No wonder the orcs wanted to drive them away, looking at this terrifying scene, Yun Di's face couldn't help but be a little pale
And Saint-Angel, though wrapped her face under a veil, could tell from her eyes that her face was not very good
What to do now, Yun Di asked me if I could assassinate those two ogres at most, and the rest would have to be left to you
Yes, in such an environment, we can't take advantage of St. Angel said
Then storm it, the dwarven defender slammed a tower shield with his battle axe, and with a loud bang, the stocky figure jumped out of his hiding place
