208 Encounter (End)
The Radiant Warriors can be said to be the top combat power of the Radiant Temple at the secular level, when they were still children, they were carefully selected from the various countries of the half continent controlled by the Temple, and then underwent more than ten years of rigorous training and brainwashing, and at the same time used secret methods to bathe them in the divine light of Sanin every day, gradually changing their physique, and gradually strengthening their devotion to Sanin, when they became adults, the more potential of them will become candidates for the Guardian of the Temple, while the others put on the armor of the Holy Light and become a religious warrior who fights for Sanin's will。 Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
I don't know what kind of trick Sopmandis used, but the Guardian of the Temple, who has not even visited the Sanin Grand Sanctuary to express his devotion to face since Sanin's arrival, has succeeded in mobilizing some of the Radiant Warriors who have been transferred to the Grand Sanctuary after the martyrdom of the Holy Mountain, and have them secretly rush here to participate in his encirclement of the 'Fanatics of Faharu' - the future Crimson Emperor did not know at this time, and it was this kind of relentless pursuit that made him compare himself to him. Tolerate's Doug mentality shifted, and he began to have the idea of getting rid of him.
On the other hand, Doug also abandoned his original plan of action and re-established a new goal. This action to hire orcs into the Duchy of Havest was originally prompted by a chance idea of Doug, and it was an additional thing in itself, and now that there are so many twists and turns, In particular, he unexpectedly encountered a message left by the residents of the suspected orc continent, which made Doug lose interest in letting Nizuenglie and Sopmandis cut each other, not to mention that now he has got a clue about the orc continent, if he really wants to investigate this, he must deal with these existing orcs, and the previous plan to wipe out these simple-minded guys in the Duchy of Havest cannot be carried out, but to ensure their safety- Especially among them, Nizu Englie and Saldana, if something goes wrong with the two future stars of the orc leadership class, then it will definitely be useless to see the treasures handed down by the ancestors of some people.
It is also for this reason that the tactics of Operation Doug have changed. Originally, he only needed to take out two gems and make a wish and leave, but now it has become to eliminate these radiant warriors to show their own martial prowess, so as to gain impression points on the side of the orcs who worship the strong in the future - anyway, these dogs of the Radiant Temple that have been completely brainwashed will be a stumbling block to the conservation god system sooner or later, and it is not useless to get rid of them now.
This series of thoughts is very wordy, but it was only a moment in Doug's mind, and then he immediately adjusted his action goals, and quickly put away annoyance, irritability and other bad factors in his mentality, and faced the current problems with a calm and pragmatic attitude - although he is not yet comparable to those old foxes, but after experiencing a lot of things as a god, he can be regarded as broadening his horizons and improving his state of mind.
"Hek, you lead half of the people to continue eating meat and resting, and prepare to fend off those glowing bugs head-on, and this warrior of mine will act with you...... Have your son lead the other half of the centaurs and shamans around from the side and see if they can get from behind their butts. ”
After deciding on a new target, Doug began to order, "My acolytes and I will use the power of the Goddess of Mercy to disguise ourselves as followers of Faharus to attack them, try to make them guess the wrong target, and make us less troublesome in the future." ”
Since they were still being hired, Heike @ Begmasio and Nizun Gree, who had a mercenary work ethic, accepted Doug's order without hesitation and quickly divided into two directions and left quickly. Don't look at their usual appearance of more muscles than brains, the battle instinct hidden deep in their bones is indeed not to be underestimated, once they enter the combat state, they immediately behave completely differently, and quickly disappear into the field in the glimmer of morning light, and the skillful concealment ability Even if it is the eye of a god like Doug, you have to concentrate to find them.
"Linax, you and I are acting together to deal with those guys above the captain. ”
When the orcs had left the collapsed alleyway of the ruins, Doug turned to Linax and said, "Just show your true colors, use more spells that can be misunderstood, and the more people associate with Faharus, the better......"
"As you wish, my Lord God. ”
The dragon lich bowed slightly, and replied, "But you'd better not call a god by name...... Although you now have a godhead, the Lord of Death cannot sense your language, if those orcs are influenced by you and call them so, their words will be heard by the Lord of Death, which may cause information to leak......"
As he spoke, his image began to change, his originally white skin quickly began to wither and disappear, and when the last sentence was finished, the whole had completely turned into a dry zombie-like image, and when he stretched out his pale finger bones lightly and traced it on his forehead, a rune belonging to the death sacrifice of Faharu was faintly ignited on his forehead, and the calm power of death slowly seeped out, instantly forming a cold and dead area around his body like an ice abyss.
"Understood. ”
Doug accepted Linax's tactful criticism unconcernedly, and nodded slightly in satisfaction as he looked at the new image of the dragon lich. The Second Apostle, who had gone through so much trouble and fought for his life, never disappointed - you see how striking this image is, and everyone except those with intellectual problems can tell at a glance that this is a believer in Fahalu!
"Doug, what am I doing?"
Fifian's voice rang out dissatisfied, and at the same time a small hand squeezed Doug's arm, and kept turning and turning - the first apostle was visibly jealous as he watched the second apostle be so much used.
"Your task is certainly more important. ”
Doug replied solemnly without changing his face, and his delicate little face immediately stretched out like a bud blooming: "You can manipulate these assistants of yours to find out as soon as possible what Sopmandis is tracking us on...... This is very important, and you must find it as soon as possible, understand?"
"Don't worry, these little ones of mine are amazing!"
Fifian, who had been 'entrusted with the task', was in high spirits, and her little hands were moving on the light screens as quickly as a dance, and her mouth was still chanting, and her big eyes were shining like clear gems—the little girl didn't realize that she had been fooled, and Doug, who had the Emblem of Ray Bell, didn't really care how he was tracked, and made a wish, and everything was settled.
"Tell me as soon as you have news...... Let's go, Linax. ”
Doug secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but his face did not show any light, and after greeting the dragon lich, the 'Reaper of Faharu' in his hand emitted a faint black light and disappeared into the space first.
The dragon lich glanced at Fifian, who was seriously busy, and smiled meaningfully, then silently cut a rift in the air and stepped in.
These two ...... It's getting more and more like an old husband and wife.
......
......
"Ah...... This meat is so delicious...... You say, don't you?"
"Oh, yes, this meat is so delicious, I've eaten so much, and now I feel sleepy...... I slept...... Snore...... Purr ......"
"Ah, I'm sleepy too, I'll sleep too...... Snore...... Purr ......"
“......”
Less than five minutes after Heike @ Bergmarsio went back to convey Doug's instructions, as if someone had knocked the back of the head one by one, the orcs who were in charge of the front fell straight down one by one, and the only meatball who was still standing looked left and right at the orcs who were suddenly lying down and snoring, and after the small red eyes blinked a few times, the whole body also fell to the ground with a mountain of slamming posture, and the mouth imitated a fake snoring sound.
...... A bunch of idiots.
Hidden in the shadows, Doug watched the clumsy performance of a group of orcs around the remnants of the campfire, and involuntarily pressed his forehead and sighed silently. It turned out to be a terrible idea to put the orcs on the task of luring the enemy, and the big men tried their best to act as if they hadn't spotted the enemy, but the high fighting spirit and the extremely unnatural "I'm asleep" actions full of flaws could be felt by the blind - fortunately, this was just a cover, and it didn't matter whether they lured the enemy or not, otherwise Doug's insidious and vicious plan would definitely be ruined at the hands of these guys who had more muscles than brains.
Compared to the speechless performances of these orcs here, the surprise attack army led by Nizu Engle was much more pleasing to the eye in Doug's eyes, and with the assistance of combat instinct and shamanic magic, their sturdy bodies were able to move between the fields without a sound, and even Doug would lose their traces if he was distracted at all, and the Radiant Warriors who had already developed the habit of nostrils facing the sky in the Temple of Radiance naturally did not notice it at all, and soon this group of sneak attackers penetrated through the encirclement of the Radiant Warriors, and quietly wandered behind them like coyotes――If it weren't for the small number of people, I am afraid that there would be a good chance of annihilating these glowing fireflies.
"Let's get started. ”
As Nizu Englie had completely circled behind the Radiant Warriors, Doug whispered softly to his side. Linax's withered image flickered in the void beside him, then disappeared again, drifting swiftly towards the encirclement of the Radiant Samurai like a faint dark cloud.
Doug himself revealed the 'Reaper of Faharo', the pure black blade could not be illuminated even in the morning light, as if the night was left in Doug's hands, and the power of death no longer scattered everywhere, but tightly condensed on the blade, churning slightly.
"Someone's sneak attack—"
On the other side, the orcs who pretended to have not been asleep for a few minutes had already shouted impatiently, and with this shout, the orcs who were snoring and shaking the sky just now jumped up together, shouted in panic, picked up the exquisite axe and rushed to the glorious warrior closest to him, the battle axe in his hand was already vigorous, and on the other hand, he also made various 'panicked' performances according to Doug's previous orders, and the scene was extremely funny.
The Radiant Warriors, who had been trained and brainwashed for a long time, did not show the slightest cowardice in the face of the sudden and ferocious attack of the enemy, and the several Radiant Warriors who rushed to the front turned on the full function of their armor almost at the same time, and the soft holy light immediately illuminated the entire battlefield, and in the midst of the repeated prayers, their weapons also lit up with the same brilliance, and they collided with the orcs' exquisite axes.
"Hmm!"
"Ugh!"
It's just a face, the first round of battles has already had a result, as a secular class, the Radiant Warrior is naturally not the opponent of the Roaring Shield Guardians as an elite class, plus the futuristic weapons designed by Fifian himself are incomparably sharp, most of those Radiant Warriors who faced the orcs in an instant were cut to the ground, and a trace of blood suddenly added to the soft holy light.
"It is our glory to die for Sanin! let our souls merge into the light and crush any evil darkness!"
Seeing the death of their companions, the other Radiant Warriors did not flinch in the slightest, and still rushed towards the orcs without fear with a passionate shout, the numerical superiority and the Radiant Warrior's nasty super recovery ability quickly turned the tide of the battle, after all, the number of orcs left here was too small, and after just a minute, they were all wounded, and the more serious ones were even mutilated - of course, the Radiant Warrior's casualties were even more severe.
On the other side, Nizuengle, who had already detoured behind the Radiant Warrior, calmly watched his companions fight bloodily, waiting for the best opportunity like a predatory beast, and even held back from being slashed in the face of his own Lao Tzu Heiko @ Bergmasio, and there was no trace of fluctuation in the yellow beast's eyes.
This kid is good, he deserves to be the leader of the next Roaring Shield Guardian of the Roaring Cave.
Hidden in the dark, Doug observed with great interest Nizuenglie's actions, and his heart was greatly appreciative. Although he was born as a low-level thug who did black work, he finally became a West's follower leader, and he still has some knowledge of 'leadership', and the young beast in front of him is not only not inferior to humans in the slightest, but also has a very good calmness and willpower, and his future achievements are definitely above his old son Heiko @ Bergmasio.
Or, just make a stand-in according to Fifian's orc image to give to the big beast and win over the relationship?
Ideas flashed through Doug's mind as he began to seriously consider the prospect of wooing the orcs. After a few brief moments with these orcs, he had already felt the usefulness of these muscular pies, and it would take at least seven or eight years for the teenagers Fifian had cultivated to come in handy, and in these chaotic times, it was a good thing to have a poor ally who was muscular and easy to satisfy......
Of course, Enemao's poor brain is also one of the reasons why Doug is ready to move. The performance of this main god in the roaring cave made the naturally cautious Doug not pay much attention to him, it is estimated that he is getting all the orcs to work for himself, and this boss can also fool around with some fodder and coax...... It stands to reason that the orcs are also a civilized race that once created a glorious continent, how did they fall to the point of living with such an idiot's rice bucket?
The thought flashed through Doug's mind, and then vanished without a trace—there was no need to bother with someone else's misfortune, did you?
At this time, Nizu Englie finally led the other half of the orcs to launch a surprise attack, and the young beast confirmed that there was a gap between the strength of the Radiant Warrior and his companions after carefully observing the battlefield, and then decisively broke up the original assault formation, scattered the forces in his hands into a line, and threw himself towards the back of the Radiant Warrior as a whole, in order to use the opportunity of this raid to cause the maximum damage.
His strategy proved to be very effective, the difference in strength made it impossible for the orcs to rely on any formation, and the surprise attack from behind the individual could easily cause a large number of casualties, and the formation of the whole line attack played a decisive role, magnifying the enemy's casualty figure to the limit, and at a glance, it was as if the entire encirclement was suddenly inserted into dozens of sword blades, and it was very chaotic for a while.
"Steady! There aren't many enemies—uh!"
When the captain of a radiant samurai was shouting loudly and mobilizing his subordinates to meet the enemy's surprise attack, a strange coldness suddenly came from his heart, and then his eyes suddenly went black, and the words behind him turned into a faint muffled snort, and he fell softly towards the ground, and when his armor hit the ground, his body had turned into countless fine white flying ashes, fluttering in the wind.
"Be careful, and the enemy's assassins—ah!!!"
Another captain noticed what had happened to his colleague and immediately shouted a warning, but he was only halfway through his words, his body seemed to freeze and could no longer move, and a withered and pale figure flashed behind him, and when enough of the surrounding glorious warriors saw his face, it disappeared as if it had melted into the night, and the captain watched in horror as the ground beneath his feet turned into a bloody mouth made of countless bones, and one after another the bony arms suddenly broke through the ground, grabbed his legs and feet and dragged him rudely, and the ground immediately closed and gushed out like a fountain of countless plasma。
“...... Odd. ”
Doug watched the group of glorious warriors in the dark, and a little doubt in his heart was quietly expanding. Since he and Linax had each eliminated two captain-level commanders, there had been no one in this group who had come forward to take command - it would not be unusual if it was an ordinary army, but for a fanatical religious warrior like the Radiant Warrior who had no fear of death, it meant that there was indeed no commander in this group.
In other words, it's just a bunch of lowest-level radiant warriors?
Doug felt a hint of unease. Even if Thorpe Mandis did not go to the Holy Church to worship, he was still one of the four Golden Order Temple Guardians whose authority was second only to the Presbyterian Church, after the destruction of the Holy Mountain Dahara, the Temple of Radiance should need the support of the powerful power of Wright, it was impossible to send such a group of such low-level warriors to Thorpe Mandis, the emperor of Wright, unless...... He asked for it himself!
Just when he seemed to grasp something, the eyelids of the god of conservation suddenly began to jump, and then Fifian's excited voice sounded in his ears:
"Doug, I've found the man who is following us, it's a couple of priests next to Sopmandis, who are watching the ground through the reflection of the sky with a strange combination of magic...... Hey, why is Sopmandis also casting spells? I saw him kneeling on the ground and chanting words...... Oops, how did he cut his own hand?......"
Sopmandis cut his own hands?
Doug was slightly stunned, and at this moment, Linax's figure, who was also listening to Fifian's information, suddenly appeared behind Doug, with a solemn expression on his dry face.
"He's going to summon the 'Heroic Spirits'. ”
The dragon lich quickly glanced at the corpses of the glorious warriors lying around him, and frowned tightly: "With the blood of angels, summon the souls of all the devout who died in battle from the divine realm to fight for the gods again...... It is simply invincible in a short period of time. ”
"He's crazy?"
Doug narrowed his eyes gloomily, and with some incredulity, he glanced in the direction where Sopmandis was. For the sake of such a small group of enemies encountered on the road, His Majesty the Emperor was willing to put in such a big effort?
Still is...... What did he perceive?
