Chapter 109: Crossing the River

The elves are contemptuously called green-skinned elves by the orcs, it is obviously wrong, the elves' skin is not born green, but milky white like milk, the skin is delicate and incomparable, as if it will glow, the reason why it is called green, I am afraid that more reason, is that the elves wear clothes, many times are woven by the fibers produced by plants, with a little green feeling.

Just like now, when the elves enter the jungle, they can still clearly distinguish themselves from the environment.

Maggie was in the woods, a few kilometers away from the north shore, and she and her companions were druid apprentices who were tasked with harnessing the plants of war, and were temporarily recruited to participate in the Northern Expedition before the war, and belonged to the engineering unit of the Knights of the Vanguard. Protected by the Order's elven warriors, they marched to the banks of the jungle to make final preparations for the army before crossing the river.

While silently thinking about the steps to be carried out in a while, she sorted out the various things in her battle package: 1. Plant seeds; 2. Holy water; 3. Wand...... Well, it looks like everything is missing. Maggie triumphantly rewrapped her battle wrap.

Maggie, the leader of the team, walked along the jungle on the riverbank and asked the team members one by one:

"Are you ready?"

"Ready."

"Ready."

……

The team members replied one after another.

The captain asked them about the preparations of the team, and then passed the information to the rear, and in a short time all the preparations of the bridge-building team on the entire river bank had been completed, and they were silent, waiting for the last moment.

At this moment, Maggie was nervous, and somehow, she suddenly remembered her parents, although for an elf who had been educated by the public at a very young age, such a thing was so incredible, but at the moment she thought so, she missed the warm and serene taste.

She looked at the water a few meters away under the branches of the mangrove trees, where a circle of blisters was emerging, and she knew that there was probably one or more river dogs (a gregarious reptile beast similar to alligators, which preferred to hunt at the mouth of large rivers), and before the war, they probably also smelled the war, lurking beneath the water, expecting a feast.

At this moment, she thought of her **, her home in the Song City of Hao Dixiu......

However, Maggie's chaotic thoughts could not stop the pace of war, and after a few breaths, as the signal from the heavenly elves and sky knights lit up from the sky behind them, the daytime sky suddenly darkened, and a blinding brightness exploded in the sky! Loud thunder awakens the elves from their misery!

She looked up at the beauty of the sky, the last cry of the seed of the messenger tree in the sky! A sign of death! Immediately after, the ground beneath her feet began to rumble and vibrate, like an earthquake erupting, and countless magical plants behind her roared and began to breathe anger into the sky, she knew that the war had begun......

……

In another open space, as close as possible to the river bank, there are tall grenade trees, which are thirty or forty meters high, which are completely different from the mangrove forests that grow on the banks of the surrounding river, and at first glance they do not look like trees at all.

The Grenade Tree is the main war magic plant of the elves, one of the heaviest magical war plants of the elves, after hundreds of years of deployment and evolution by the druids, this super heavy grenade tree has long since lost the appearance of a tree, it has no crown, no branches and leaves, all it has is a tall and straight trunk.

If Zhang Quan was here, he would have found that the shape of this grenade tree was incomparably close to the large-caliber artillery on earth. The thick trunk of the plant, which is tens of meters long, is like the barrel of an artillery, and it is at an angle of about 40 degrees between it and the ground, pointing obliquely to the other side of the Kampra River, and under the trunk are the thick roots of the tree that are deeply rooted in the ground for tens of meters. This thick root system acts like a brake when the grenade tree is fired, and can support the recoil of the grenade tree.

The most bizarre thing is that the grenade fruit of this grenade tree actually bears on the root system of the tree.

Because it is a magical plant, it grows entirely by the magical techniques of the elves, so this grenade tree has lost the functions of most plants, such as photosynthesis, and its lifespan is extremely short.

Now the grenade tree here is the latest variety of grenade trees, the largest tree shape, the longest range, and its grenade fruit is also the latest burst grenade deployed by the crazy druids in recent years, which is extremely powerful.

The barrel of the grenade tree stabbed straight into the sky, and its angle of inclination was the direction that the druids had been constantly adjusting with holy water and spells since it was born, like a sunflower chasing the sun, and it was difficult to adjust it significantly when it reached maturity. Therefore, after a grenade tree grows, the firing range and landing point are basically fixed. The elves placed the grenade fruit at the top of the canopy of the trunk and ready to fire. Once the battle began, the bioactive fibers within the entire trunk exploded, and a powerful biochemical reaction gushed out a huge air current, sending the grenade fruit high into the air and falling into the pre-planned strike area.

Normally, after a battle, the grenade fruit tree loses all biological activity, and the only thing that awaits them is death. Almost all magical plants are one-time creatures that do not grow sustainably, and charismatic spells and active farming techniques drain all the biological activity of this type of plant, allowing them to burst out in a short period of time, emitting an instantaneous light.

At some point, the druids felt that everything was over, that the grenade tree had reached its peak of growth, and the Templar priests began to appear, placing their wands lined with magic cores on the huge rhizome of the grenade tree and began to pray......

"Divine Grace - Strong!" A dazzling light flowed from the priests' hands to the barrel of the cannon, and a pale green light shrouded it,

"Divine Grace - Growth!" Under the glow of magic, the bark of the cannon barrel grew and expanded at an unimaginable rate, growing to the maximum, swelling the entire branch into a spindle-shaped, like a pregnant woman waiting to give birth, only a layer of sturdy magic radiance firmly encircled this energy, so that it would not be cathartic.

And then

"Divine Grace - Unleashed!"

With a bang, the thick stem of the entire grenade tree shrank violently, and the huge air flow at the top of the branch cannon barrel that was firmly bound by the sturdy technique flew away, spewing out a streamer and flame-like effect, and the grenade fruit flew away in response to the sound, turning into a meteor in the blink of an eye, crossing the river and flying towards the other side of the river.

In an instant, the grenade tree clusters of the elves began to explode at the same time, thousands of grenade trees began to suppress the other side of the river, and countless grenade fruits flew out of the woods, densely packed, obscuring the sky above the river, and then, falling like a swarm of bees, in an instant, the river water and the river bank on the other side of the river, like a hot pot boiling, densely exploded the explosion shock wave immediately covered half of the river.

The fruit of the Burst Grenade Fruit, after leaving the body, begins to react inside, but it usually takes a while to burst open, this time is exactly the time when they fly through the air, when they land, most of them explode, this new Burst Grenade Fruit is no longer the previous only to provide physical kill mode, but the inside is filled with viscous bioincendiary, once it bursts, it is immediately a sea of fire.

This grenade tree, although it is the longest-range grenade tree species, still has a hard time reaching the opposite side of most of the fruit. But even so, this terrifying firepower had completely suppressed the enemy, making the orcs in the jungle retreat in a hurry and had to stay away from the river bank.

Flames erupted, and the pungent smell of burning grenades reigned over the river, ravaging the jungles of the north bank and the orcs who defended them.

……

"Quick! Fast! Start building bridges! Maggie's squad leader leaped to his feet and led them to the shore, followed by a large group of mixed legions of heavy and light air horsemen.

Maggie followed her companions and ran to the shore in a panic, watching several heavy air riders fly clumsily to the surface of the river, and threw a huge tree with dirt and rhizomes hanging below into the water.

Then a group of light air riders swarmed in, and the elves of the air knights landed lightly on the canopy, tied ropes to the canopy, and then flew up, implicating the ropes back and forth into ropes that were connected together.

The members of Maggie's team took the ropes thrown down by the airriders and immediately tied them to the shore, Maggie hurriedly took out the vine plant seeds treasured in her package, first dripped a few drops of holy water, and then took out her wand and began to cast a spell, immediately began to trigger. The divine grace of prayer descended, and the activity of the holy water penetrated into every cell of the seed, and after a while, the vine was like a flexible little animal that suddenly woke up, and quickly began to grow, struggling to stretch out its branches in all directions, Maggie hurriedly put the vine on the rope, and the vine immediately wrapped around the rope, and stretched along the rope of the river step by step, one after another vine plants quickly wound up, and soon the originally thin rope on the river surface became thick and strong!

Bridge-building trees grow from the bottom of the river, arranged into a line-like pier, extending to the other side of the river, and the vines are growing hard, connecting the piers together, the huge ropes, thicker and wider, gradually the rope bridge has grown into a shape, forming a long rope bridge, enough to support the weight of the elves, the light elves are busy jumping on the rope bridge, and begin the tedious work of reinforcing the bridge deck and piers. Several rope bridges are connected horizontally to form a wider bridge deck.

In just two or three hours, under the cover of the grenade tree cluster's fire bombardment on the north bank, a huge rope bridge had formed that ran through the river for more than ten miles, pointing directly to the opposite side of the riverbank, and this rope bridge was strong and wide enough for the transport carts of the heaviest magical war plants to pass through.

The elven army that had been waiting on the river bank for a long time poured onto the bridge deck, like migrating ant colonies, heading towards the north bank.
