Chapter 37: Enemy Attack
Never discuss beauty and ugliness with a lizardman. Writing, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info - Heda Shadow Song
This unexpected episode changed the peaceful atmosphere of Tsuchiya.
Originally, the lizard people were happily discussing killing and setting fires, but when Hedda stirred it up like this, they all seemed to have 502 glue on their mouths, and they completely shut up.
Sidney, who sat with Hedda at the eastern end of the earthen house, stared at the elven woman with great anger - if Sid and Rory's previous quarrel was a disregard for its dignity, then Hedd's public murder was undoubtedly stomping on her face.
But when she thought of her weird ability, this domineering dragon man swallowed his saliva, and still chose to be a good man not to suffer the immediate loss, and to coax him first.
Don't think that the lizardmen are a race that is not afraid of death. As bandits engaged in guerrilla warfare without authorization, they can very strictly adhere to the 16-character decision: the enemy advances and we retreat, the enemy is stationed and disturbs us, the enemy is tired and we fight, and the enemy retreats and we pursue. It can be said that bullying the soft and fearing the hard is synonymous with them, the persimmon picking the soft pinch is the survival philosophy they have always pursued, and bowing to the strong is the normal state of their life.
Even if Sidney only had a fraction of the lizardman blood in his body, that didn't change in the slightest.
As for the initiator of this incident, the Moon Elf Hedda Shadowsong, she is now silent. She was now decadent, remorseful for her impulsiveness. As a perfectionist, she obviously couldn't accept what she had just done. Because of the other party's inferior aesthetic hysteria, this is not what a ranger general should do, it is too cheap!
"Why don't you speak?" Hedda put the scimitar back into its leather sheath, and her beautiful eyes looked around and became serious again, "Wasn't there a lot of discussion just now, and went on." ”
In the face of her questioning, Sidney said to the Dark Moon Elf, who was still calm and breezy after the killing, in a tactful tone that did not lose his identity, "We just want to refer to your opinion, General Heda. ”
The lizardmen who looked up at them to the west echoed, and there was a loud voice of "the chief is right".
After experiencing the scene just now, these guys understood Heda's horror, and they were afraid of this Dark Moon Elf woman who stabbed the knife if they didn't agree with each other.
"Since you all want to ask me, I'll just say a few words. Hedda waved his hand to signal them to be quiet, "As a battle-hardened Ranger General, I think you can take down Limestone with the help of the Wind Cannon." Unless you really want this guy to say, what kind of dragon has appeared there, a terrifying phantom......" She pointed to Rory, who was already on the verge of incontinence.
Her affirmation was like a spark, completely igniting the enthusiasm of all the lizardmen present.
"So what are you waiting for, Chief, let's hurry up and get to ......"
"I can't wait......"
"Everyone should prepare the skinning knives ......"
"I can finally sleep in a human house......"
Sidney was also eager to try in the face of the surging emotions of the crowd, "In that case, we will set off in a few days and attack them in the early morning......" Hearing Heda's words, he was no longer undecided
However, Heddah's violent coughing broke the harmony.
"Can't you just wait for me to finish? When they were quiet again, Heddah said in an impatient tone, "But if you really want to attack there, I'm afraid you'll suffer a lot of damage." Limestone is a duke's domain and has a lot of magical weapons. On top of that, they also have ten hippogriffs. This magical beast with the body of a horse can be very difficult. ”
"General Heda, you are underestimating us. Sidney objected, "They have Hippogriffs, and we have devil lizards." I'm afraid you don't know that our Iron Scale Tribe was a large tribe with a population of more than three thousand before. I only hate the damned bronze lizardmen, kill my compatriots, and take my territory. After this migration, although the tribe suffered heavy damage, the devil lizards raised were basically brought over. His words, as usual, received another round of applause.
"You mean that kind of stinky lizard, that kind of thing can be compared to a hippony?" Heda sneered unceremoniously, "Chief Sidney, you don't even know what a Hippogriff is, do you?"
"What is a higriff, a griffin is about the same. Sidney was also polite, "General Heda, you really don't know enough about us lizardmen to know the terrifying potential of devil lizards. It's a terrifying magical beast with a great bloodline. As long as the bloodline is constantly revived, the devil lizard will turn into a terrifying hydra, which can fight and kill the dragon!"
"I can chop a dragon that has just come out of its shell. If you really want to count it, the golden feather finch that our Dark Moon Elves like to raise the most can also turn into an immortal bird. But are you really going to carry its birdcage to the battlefield?" Heddah critiqued, mercilessly, "Potential, it's just a mirage. It looks like that, but if you really want to chase them, you can only get lost in the desert. I've checked all of your twenty-odd devil lizards, and the most powerful one has only just turned into a three-headed devil lizard, which is only a mid-level magic beast, and it's not much different from a hippony. But Hippogriffs have wings, so they are easy to deal with. ”
"Don't you still have the wind guide cannon you brought?" Sidney was a little unwilling to be belittled by someone like this.
"It's not like you didn't see what happened just now. Even the wild demons I brought with me could not successfully defeat a hawk horse carrying a knight with a wind guide cannon. The reason why they succeeded last night was that those harpies were blind after nightfall, and the battlefield was in a cave, and their ability to fly was very limited. Even so, most of the harpies escaped. ”
"It doesn't work, it doesn't work either. General Heda, what do you say we should do?" Sidney was a little restless. This dragon man chief is actually not a thorough main battle faction, but his temper has also come up because of Heda's poisonous tongue.
"In my opinion, you need to wait in peace and learn more about the terrain forces here. In four months at the latest, our underground coalition will attack this land, and we will need your help. We will fulfill all the conditions we promised you. "Until then, you need to be patient. But rest assured, Limestone Town will still be yours sooner or later. ”
When the lizardmen heard her assurance, they all hung their heads, and the last thing this group of robbers had was patience.
"But what if they come?" Sidney was still a little unwilling, "During this time, we robbed a lot of human merchants, and the conflict with those harpy banshees came about. According to their human conventions, they may have already planned to march here. ”
"Rest assured, the situation in Limestone is exceptional. Hedda assured in a very firm tone, "Their leader is a loser who has been ostracized by his own people. With his little power, he wouldn't do such a moth to a fire......"
However, before he could finish the sentence, a low horn suddenly sounded from inside the earthen house. All the lizardmen present were alert, they all knew that this was an enemy attack.
Soon after this trumpet, a second trumpet sounded, three times in a row.
And the three horns represent the "attack of mankind"!
