Chapter 13: Forest Blockade
Over the course of three days, Ravan led all the Ovan warriors from the Red Dragon Cave to the vicinity of the Western Fortress. Over time, the joy of defeating the Red Dragon has somewhat faded. Now the question before them was how to evacuate from the Western Fortress.
All Owan knew that if he couldn't pass through the Western Fortress as soon as possible, he would most likely face the encirclement and suppression of the Red Dragon Knights. Once they encounter encirclement and suppression, all their previous efforts will be in vain.
As the team began to recuperate, Raven gathered several henchmen from Dalt, Shaman, and Orno to discuss their next move.
In the tent, everyone looked solemn. The shaman was the first to speak: "If you want to retreat from the western fortress, you should send a suitable person to work hard." As long as there are good treasures, it will not be a problem for us to pass safely. ”
"It's hard to say, the guards are exchanged every once in a while. What if the new keeper doesn't eat our set?" said Ono.
"Chief, Ono is right. They are greedy people. There is no integrity to speak of, and if everything is their ploy, then it will be difficult for us to get out of it all. Dart said.
The flames in the tent lit up Raven's face, and he listened expressionlessly. Seeing Raven's reaction, the shaman continued, "I've been secretly in a relationship with that person for many years. I'm already familiar with his temperament. Moreover, he is not the only one we have paid off, if he wants to intercept our meritorious service. I have a way to get out of it. I don't think that's what the leader is worried about right now, it's our own team!"
Ravan looked up at the shaman and said, "Hmph, you know me best." You don't have to worry, since we can pass through the fortress safely, we can go back safely. I'm wondering what Durand is going to do. Now we're about to get to the Western Fortress, and if we get through, there's no chance of getting rid of him again. ”
Dalter and Ono looked at each other, and then they realized that the root was tied to this matter. With pride on his face, the shaman said, "This is very easy to do! We got the dragon heart stone and the dragon egg, and there was such a big movement, the group of people will definitely find out." Now, there must be an army after us. The leader can let him stay and break the queen!"
"Haha, that's a great idea. Shaman, I really admire you!" Ravan said as he stood up with a smile. Then he looked at Ono again and said, "You go and inform immediately, let Durand take someone to stay and break the queen." We set off through the fortress at once. ”
Unor hurriedly ran out of the tent and delivered the order. The entire team of Ovan responded quickly and immediately began to move. After Ono conveyed LaVine's order to Duland, many people who were close to Durand understood LaVine's intentions.
Silana was the first to stand up and say: "What kind of broken decision is this, let Duland's people stay and block it." Here's what's going on. Ou Nuo, your master is not too cautious? ”
"This is a command, and your men are to stay. Since Ravan is the supreme commander, all men are to obey his orders. This is for the overall benefit of Ovan, Durand, you don't understand, right?" said O'Nuo.
Silana still wanted to argue, but Durand stopped her. He said to Ohno, "I obey Raven's orders, but I will stay alone." There is no need for others to stay. I can stop all the enemies by myself. Go tell Ravan what I mean!"
Others wanted to say it, but Durand said loudly: "For the sake of Owan, for the entrustment of the big leader." Say no more. ”
This sentence silenced everyone, and seeing Duland's performance like this, Ono nodded and returned to LaVine's camp with admiration.
After hearing Duland's answer, LaVine laughed for a long time. He shook his head and looked at Ouno coldly and said, "If it were you, would you agree?"
"I guess I'll say yes!" said Ono.
"Agree? is to prove to others that I am a person who wants to take revenge on him. But you know, I'm not that kind of person. This decision of mine is for the sake of the future of the entire Ovan. Do you understand?" said Lavin.
Ravin grimaced, sharp eyes staring at Onno like a sword. Ono instantly felt a chill, and he immediately re-conveyed Raven's order.
The news immediately spread in Ovan's camp, and Silana and the others gathered around Durand and sat motionless on the ground. Durand looked at the faces of the people around him, and knowing everyone's concerns, he got up and said, "We are the fighters chosen by Ovan, and now is the time to prove ourselves." ”
This sentence immediately rekindled the confidence of the people present, and they took out their weapons and looked at Durand with bright eyes. After the rest of Orman began to move, Durand led his men to pick a good position to wait for the possible enemy.
And the results of their wait were not long in coming, and a cavalry contingent came from a distance. Durand gave the person next to him a look, and all the Okann lowered their breath, waiting for the group to come closer.
But at this moment, the team suddenly stopped. The group of people who came were none other than Walter and Jones Knights, and after two days of chasing, they were already a little tired. Just as Walter wanted to continue the chase, Jones Knight called Walter to stop.
"Why stopped?" asked Walter curiously.
"Do you know what this place is? Jones said solemnly.
Walter looked around and saw that there was a dense forest everywhere. Didn't notice any difference. Seeing that Walter didn't react, Jones pointed ahead and said, "This is already very close to the Western Fortress, and it should be more than ten kilometers away." ”
"Oh, I didn't expect we all to come here. But their whereabouts were not found. What's going on?" Walter said.
"I have a bad feeling that it is impossible for those Odovans not to follow this path. But there is no sign of them so far, so it is very likely that they are somewhere, ready to ambush. After all, it's what they do best. Jones said.
As soon as Jones's words fell, several cold arrows pierced through the jungle next to him. Several soldiers were shot and fell to the ground.
"There's an ambush, hurry up and hide. Jones shouted. led everyone to hide in the woods next to them. It wasn't until he ducked behind a tree that Walter realized that Jones had been hit by an arrow and blood was coming out of the exploding wound.
Walter asked with concern, "Knight, what are your injuries?"
"It's okay, Oman's arrow is still so penetrating that it can easily penetrate the iron armor. Ahh Jones said as he pulled the arrow out of his arm.
While Walter and the others were dodging, there was no movement on Owan's side. This made Walter feel strange, and Jones, who was beside him, whispered, "Walter, you take a few people around the side." Judging by the direction of the arrow, it should have come from the west. You surround the past. We're here to attract them. ”
Walter nodded, and quietly walked around the south with Adenor. Just when Walter arrived in the south, he was greeted by a team of Owan, led by Silana.
Seeing Walter also stunned Silana, and she was about to sneak attack. Slana threw a few darts at random, and Walter dodged them in a flash. In the flash of light, people on both sides exchanged hands.
The two-handed knife in Silana's hand quickly slashed through the bodies of several soldiers, and several soldiers fell to the ground with serious injuries. Seeing this, Walter immediately took out the Flame Sword and Silana's twin swords, intertwined together. As soon as the sword went down, Silana was shocked by the huge weight of the sword and took a few steps back.
The chaos in the south made Jones immediately realize that the battle had begun. Soon the reinforcements from both sides were pouring in. In the chaos, Slana and Walter have been fighting for a long time.
While Durand was holding back his pursuers, LaVine walked leisurely in front with a large army. From time to time, he took the dragon heart stone and looked through it in his hand. I imagined the image of the big boss after returning to the region.
As they quietly approached the Western Fortress, the entire encirclement laid out by Daniel was also tightening little by little.
