Volume 1 [Border Clouds] Chapter 155: Layout and Crisis (II)
The two old men in the study, one is the high-ranking of the largest sect in the kingdom, and the other is the great lord who guards the territory of one side.
And because of this, when Roddy laid everything out, they... It is the one who can really smell the disaster from it.
Roddy recounts what happened to him: the outpost set up by the orcs outside the village of Nolan, the arrogance of the wolf cavalry slaughtering the village, the cooperation between Francis and Sarota, the staggering number of armies in the orc kingdom, the coveting and scheming of the "Hammer of Rohar" on human territory...
Angmar had heard these stories intermittently from others before, and vaguely felt that they seemed to indicate some kind of information - but when he pieced together the clues that Roddy had said, his back was instantly covered with cold sweat
There is no one in this room who is stupid, and there is no need for Roddy to make up lies to deceive the two, all kinds of examples, coupled with the previous unintentional "corroboration" of Sodrore and others, all make Roddy's original assumption instantly become real and credible...
The orcs may really be preparing to attack the kingdom of Karen.
The territory map was turned out by Angmar and placed on the desk, Roddy was not polite, just raised his hand and gently drew a few possible attack tracks on it, and fine beads of sweat immediately appeared on Duke Angmar's forehead...
"Orcs don't carry baggage, they are like locusts, destroying everything in their path."
"The mobility of the wolf cavalry allows them to radiate all the villages from here at any time..."
"Humans will be killed, and even used for food, and I've been there."
"They will replenish their coveted equipment here, and then borrow chickens and eggs to start producing armor suitable for their size here, in preparation for continuing deep into the kingdom."
"A few fortresses here may be able to resist it, but if the other side comes suddenly, it can only be the end of the siege and waiting for death - in the case of surprise, the fortress of Conceton has enough food to eat for a few weeks? How many soldiers are there in it? ”
By the time a sentence came out of Roddy's mouth, the atmosphere in the study was almost freezing. Angmar's beard trembled slightly, but he closed his eyes, letting more sweat flow, and took a few steps back with some difficulty, and sat back in his chair...
In just a few minutes, he seemed to age ten years in an instant.
Rubens's gaze followed the direction of the orc invasion, and he was about to say something, but he saw that Roddy scratched his finger without raising his head - "After the territory of Ivta, it is here, here, here, all the dioceses are destroyed, and there is no other end." The nobles will sue for peace, the war will drag on, and maybe there will be a turnaround, but if the orcs taste the sweetness..."
"Unless they are beaten to death and feared, they will never return to the barren grassland"
It was not Roddy who said this, but Duke Angmar, who was pale-faced and clenched into fists.
By now, Angmar no longer thought about what Roddy was doing for the sake of the Elders—he realized what the information he was exposed to now meant, and he was more aware of the significance of what Roddy was doing in the Orc Kingdom
For Roddy, although there are still many things that cannot be seen through, Angmar has already understood his main intentions... After knowing this, those doubts in his heart disappeared, and in his place, he was aroused by Luo Di's "sense of distress".
"In this case, time is running out..."
Angmar whispered what Roddy had been trying to say, then closed her eyes slightly, lost in thought
Rubens squinted at the map for a long time, although his position was not that of the lord but of the sect leader, he also understood the consequences of the orcs invading the kingdom - after thinking about this, he didn't talk nonsense, he directly reached out and took out a metal badge from his sleeve pocket, and stuffed it into Roddy's hand without saying a word, and took out a piece of parchment, looked at it, but it was crumpled into a ball.
"Take the emblem, and in case of an emergency, you can use it to consult with Benjamin about mobilizing the Templar guards here."
"This list was supposed to be the Templar soldiers who stayed behind to guard the Duke's Palace, but if you took on the task of dealing with the undead, I should have assigned them to you—but now... I'll give you a new list when I get back, twenty Templars, twenty Templar guards, under your full command. ”
"I'll report you to a 'Captain of the Temple Guard, the position of a false position, and I will solve the internal problems of the sect involved," Rubens raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, and continued in a firm tone, "Don't shirk this, you have already helped me, helped the sect too much, these are all I can take out at the moment." I'll report these things when I return to the sect. ”
This is not only a return, but also a friendship in disguise.
"You are willing to take it seriously because of the trust you have in me." Roddy unceremoniously accepted the emblem given by Rubens, "If you say this elsewhere, it is tantamount to a laughing stock, and no one will believe it." ”
"But one more person to believe means one more chance"
Angmar stood up, although his old body was still thin, but the determination to kill only a lord was instantly revealed—"I hope... We're still in time. ”
September 27 should be regarded as the first turning point for Luo Di after crossing into this world.
When he returned to the bedroom late at night, Roddy's tense nerves relaxed a little - the box in his hand was placed on the table, he sat on the bed as if he had collapsed, and after rubbing his eyebrows vigorously, Roddy finally had time to examine all the "gains" of the whole incident.
In addition to the experience and prestige that had already been counted, the most useful material things were the short bow, bracers, and rings left behind by Magda.
Opening the display bar, Roddy reached out and picked up the short bow that shimmered with a faint blue light, and when his palm touched, an arc-like halo flashed on it, the bow was extremely light, and it was cold to the touch, as if he was holding a piece of ice.
【Ice Crystal Thorn】
Epic Bow
Requirements: 370 HP, Level 3 (Advanced Class)
Damage 47466
FL2 Agile
9. Force
Effect: Adds 10% Ice Attribute Damage to each attack
Effect: Has a chance to slow the target by 3%
Talent: "Enhanced Concentration Shot" 2
"The prayer of the High Priest Isengel is engraved on the bow and symbolizes the eternal glory of the king."
Rubbing the bow of this short bow, Roddy shook his head and nodded, but sighed...
Is it equipped? Well, it can't be better, you can use it at level 3, it's still purple "epic", the effect is stronger than the other, the damage is even higher than the other, the ice effect can't be praised, the special effects of this control system are the favorite of the ranged profession, in the past, in the auction house, this kind of bow can be auctioned at a sky-high price.
But the only drawback is obvious: you can't use it yourself.
The bow is not like a sword, even if the level of the sword is not enough, it can be used reluctantly if you force it, but this bow... Roddy reached out and tugged at the bowstring, and found that it had taken the strength of the milk to bend the bow blade in a slight arc...
"Damn, it's not okay if you don't have attributes."
Complaining in a low voice, his eyes looked carefully at the bow, as a "bow master", he actually had a way to let himself use this bow... After knocking on the bow blade, flicking the slingshot string again, and roughly confirming the material of the bow body, Roddy breathed a sigh of relief - lower the bowstring, polish the bow blade to reduce the amount and level of demand, and he can use it quickly
Turning his gaze to the bracers, he couldn't help but sigh that nothing was bad on Magda's body, even the most inconspicuous bracers were epic
【Frost Iron Bracers】
Epic leather armor
Bracers (stat down 6.)
Required Level: Level 3 (Advanced Class)
0 Agility-
6. Physique
20 force volume
FL2 Spirit
Special Effect: When attacking, there is a very low chance of inflicting the "Frost Slow" effect.
This equipment Luo Di saw at the beginning, saying that it was leather armor, but it was inlaid with a few pieces of "frost iron", so it was attached to a special effect, and it was also a PP weapon - now there is only one pair of bracers, so the attributes are only half. But if you split it and redo it, the raw material level is there, and whatever you want to do, the attributes will definitely be better than your current level 4 bracers.
If these two things are not surprising to Roddy, then the last ring really makes Roddy feel that he is too lucky...
【Ring of Eagle Eye Stone】
Fine rings
Use: Next time you cast "Concentration Shot", increase damage by 2%
Cooldown: Ij
This is what players call the "core skill enhancement ring", that is, equipment specifically for skills, which only requires a profession and does not require a level, which can be met but not sought, and almost every "artifact" that can be sold at a good price
Although the level is the blue Elite level, this equipment is often sold more expensive than those purple epic weapons because they have no level requirements, which is extremely extensive, and the more advanced the ring, the richer the effect, at this time, although this is only for the basic skill of "Concentration Shooting", it is enough for Roddy to be pleasantly surprised
"Concentration Shooting" is one of the core skills of the Ranger, as the skill used in the first arrow of the starting hand, it has a high chance of hitting the vital point with various BUFs, and the enhancement of 2 damage is definitely a big number in the case of critical hits
Holding the yellow and black, eagle-eye-like ring, Roddy put it on his hand without saying a word, and looked at the new icon that appeared in the skill bar, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Pulling out the emblem given by the Overarch, the metal carved crossed roses and crosses looked delicate in the candlelight—along with this emblem was a sudden addition of "Title: Captain of the Temple Guard" in Roddy's "title column".
[Captain of the Templar Guard: When leading the Templar Guardian in battle, all Attack damage is increased by 0]
There is a green line below: If possible, the district-level recruitment process may be initiated, and the District Temple Guards may be mobilized to assist in the battle within thirty days.
