There was no doubt that Brown would lose.

Even though he was a third-level swordsman, he had been under siege by Haag, Mrak, and Guina for less than five minutes, and finally Ivo's long arrow pierced through his heart, ending his desire to rush to Lear and bring him off his horse to be buried before he died, the wandering ranger of the Brakkat Plains with his eyes wide open until he died, and his stiff right hand pointed to where Lear stood, with a desperate look of 'how can you be so vile and shameless'.

Lear, of course, scoffed at his corpse.

After Brown's death, his rangers quickly gave up their resistance, shouting surrender in the fire, then throwing their weapons out of the wall of fire one by one, and finally rushing out of the fire in the agony of burning themselves.

Lear watched indifferently throughout the whole process, with no intention of extinguishing the flames, until the last magic apprentice rushed out of the fire with a miserable howl in the flames and soon turned into a charred corpse, this one-sided battle finally ended in the surrender of the rangers, in fact, if it was encountered in the wild, their combat power would never be so unbearable, unfortunately they chose the wrong camping spot, and the cold enemy beyond their imagination.

So a total of thirty-one rangers, twenty-two warriors, three thieves, two archers, and four magicians were captured, and the rest died in the fire and under the axes of the orcs.

Lear confiscated everyone's property in front of Jenny, which he deserved, and the latter said that he had no opinion, and even when Jenny saw the remains of the elves in the fire after the fire was extinguished, Jenny's eyes only dimmed and did not say anything.

The vast majority of them are women, and it's easy to guess what they've been through in their lifetimes, and for the spirits who value nature and purity, death may be the best place to end up after these nightmares.

Jenny decides to take them all to the front of Lucky City, and she asks Lear for help again, and he agrees.

Because Lear is also going to the magic guild in the lucky city to see, if it is not troublesome, then to observe the war in this world head-on.

After all, compared to this kind of large-scale siege and bloody battle between the two races, the one that Paloferdi experienced was really a bit pediatric.

The most touching part of the war is that when the strength of the two legions is equal, watching the invisible huge meat grinder ruthlessly harvest fresh lives.

............

Lucky City, a military council that has been considered a relatively large scale since the beginning of the war is being held in the council hall, and as the deputy speaker of the city of Ulfriedin Hot Springs, he can only accompany the last seat.

"The Erathians have launched three attacks on the City of Fortune this month, and it is good news that the bravery of the warriors has resisted their ambitions, and the tide of war is moving in our favor, but at the same time the bad news is that the Erathians are massively increasing their forces at Hammondale Castle.

If we can't find a way to recapture Hammondal, the initiative of the war will be firmly in the hands of the Erathians, just like they are choking us, we can only passively fight back, but we can never really control the direction of the war.

It is an undeniable fact that the fertile plains of Brakaton are indeed far more productive than the forests of no return, and if the war is dragged into a long stalemate, we may be slowly dragged into the quagmire of war by the Erathians in terms of attrition.

That's the way things are going, so we're only going to focus on the topic of this meeting, how to retake Hammondale Castle without losing the lucky city, and regain control of the battlefield to end this war as soon as possible, the inhabitants of the forest have been poisoned by the war for too long. ”

As one of the most authoritative members of the Magical Senate, Elisha is also the supreme commander sent by the Elven Council to garrison the lucky city, and he is also an eighth-level druid, and his high wisdom and command ability also make him famous in the Turalone forest.

"Defence and offense are two very different concepts, and it is more than enough to defend the Lucky City with our current forces, but if we want to counterattack Hammondal, unless there is a major strategic mistake on the part of the Erathians, or the Forest Council will add reinforcements to us, neither of which will be so easy to achieve now.

First of all, we can't put our hopes in the stupidity of our enemies, and secondly, we all know that the necromancers of Dia in the north are also on the move, and the Forest Council can't send us more troops, so if we want to increase our own power, there is only one way left. ”

The speaker, Ellis, the head of the Pegasus Knights, is the best beast tamer in the forest and a powerful warlock, and he paused slightly to allow everyone to concentrate more after saying the above paragraph.

"Strengthen the construction of the Lucky City, increase the training of the warriors, and most importantly we need more resources to strengthen communication with the Dragon's Cliff and the Unicorn Forest, if we can finally get the help of the Golden Dragon and the Unicorn Beast, then I think even if the Forest Council does not send us reinforcements, the Golden Dragon's breath and the light of the Unicorn Beast can lead us to destroy the Elasians' defenses, retake Hammondale Castle and drive those invaders out. ”

Ellis's impassioned remarks were also very reasonable, but strangely his remarks did not elicit unanimous approval, if not opposition, from everyone present.

Everyone had a longing glint in their eyes when they heard Ellis talk about the golden dragon and the unicorn beast, but it was quickly buried by more helplessness.

The reason is simple, the continuous war has depleted the strategic reserves of Lucky City, and the giant stone mine occupied by the Erathians some time ago has also interrupted the supply of stone to Lucky City, which has caused the half-completed Dragon's Cliff project to be suspended.

Now the green dragons who have flown from the distant Elfred Mountains to help the forest elves have to temporarily inhabit the unicorn forest, for which the representative of the green dragons, His Excellency Kakarot, has lodged a serious protest and representation with the Forest Council, and claimed that if the dragon cliff for the green dragons to live in is not built within three months, they will return to the top of Elfried Mountain and no longer participate in the war between the elves and humans.

This frightened the forest elves, who had already paid a large amount of crystals to ask for the help of the dragons in the early stage, and had to fight to recapture the boulder mine at the cost of huge losses, and in this case, where would they have more resources to pray for the favor of the golden dragon?

You know, it's a group of creatures that are much more arrogant and greedy than the green dragons, and much more powerful.

Ellis, who was originally high-spirited, was also slightly stunned after seeing everyone's reaction, and then sighed and sat down decadently.

Obviously, he also knows what everyone here knows, but he forgot it for a while when he was in love with each other, and he couldn't help but feel deeply frustrated and ashamed when he thought about it now.

"Yoffreytin, how many strategic resources are there in the hot spring city?"

As if not wanting to discourage Ellis and to keep the atmosphere from falling into a dull atmosphere from the start, Elisha asked the Dwarven Deputy Speaker in the last seat.

"No, Your Excellency, there are less than five hundred kilograms of crystal, only a few dozen kilograms of precious stones, sulfur and mercury, and as for gold coins and silverware, you know, we have always had very few reserves. ”

Everyfretin replied helplessly.

"Hmm, didn't you say last time that there were still six hundred kilograms of crystals, and why are there so many of them?"

Alisha asked puzzledly, although as the supreme commander, he would also care about such an important matter as the strategic reserve.

"A few days ago, a group of Erathians broke into the Forest of No Return from the Azure Valley, killed almost all of our two patrols, and then raided the village in the rear, their team included a large number of high-level warriors and a small number of mages, so Jenny had no choice but to seek Lear's help in the absence of mobile strength, and in return Jenny allocated two chests of crystals to Lear from the strategic warehouse. ”

Everyfrittin replied that he had just received the report, and the meeting had already been held before he had time to report to Elisha.

"Oh, how's it going?"

Alisha apparently had some impression of the name Lear, and it seems that he had captured the two magicians he used to sacrifice the flag last time.

"Completely wiped out the other party, and beheaded the leader of the group of Erathians in Wemble Village, except for those killed on the spot, the remaining thirty or so captives were already on their way to Lucky City. ”

Euffrey was proud, after all, this victory took place on the ground under his jurisdiction, and he was also honored.

"It's a very interesting little one, I really wish I could meet it. ”

The good news diluted the gloomy atmosphere over the venue a little, so Alisha didn't hesitate to smile and compliment Lear.

"If that's what you think, then you'll soon be able to see him, Your Excellency, for he personally escorted his captives, and he had made a vague request to enter the Lucky City Magic Guild, but Jenny didn't agree to him, and it requires your approval. ”

Eufrittin said respectfully.

"Really? Then I'm a little impatient. But before we do that, let's let go of this little one, because there are still many important things waiting for us to discuss. ”

Elisha smiled, and immediately brought the topic back to the topic of the meeting, he knew better than a second-level adventurer mage, what was really worth paying attention to.

Outside the lucky city, a round of sunset falls into the distant mountains.
