CHAPTER XXXVII
The battle with the Boar King was not the most dangerous battle of this winter, the real most dangerous was the battle against the ogre camp. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Dahl is home to a group of ogres who live in the mountains on the edge of the swamp. In the past, Baron Dahl never thought of crusading against them, although the ogre was called this name, in fact, he did not take people as his staple food, but only occasionally went down the mountain to catch one or two people to improve the food, and they naturally caught those farmers and the like, which was really insignificant to Dahl, and the second was that the ogre was powerful, and the location of the camp was also very sinister, so he was not sure.
He didn't know exactly how strong these ogres were, but he was sure that there were shamans among them.
Ogre tribes with shamans are completely different from those without shamans. The latter is still about the same as a beast, and the former is almost a barbarian. Beasts of the same strength and barbarians are very different in danger.
And the camp of the ogre tribe is not easy to attack, it is located on the mountainside, there is only a steep mountain road to pass, if it is not for the hunters who walk in the mountains all the year round, I am afraid that I will fall into the valley before I get to it, and don't even think about the whole corpse left. In this way, the hundreds of elite soldiers that Dahl was proud of were useless, and even among the archers, at most, only a third could successfully cross this steep mountain road.
After crossing the mountain road, how did the ogre's camp be set up? How many ogres were there? In addition to the shaman, how many had advanced to ogre warriors? Were there any ogre chieftains? Are there any legendary two-headed ogres?
He didn't know any of that.
Baron Dahl is a businessman, he can do business but he can't fight, but he doesn't think he is very smart and omnipotent like some famous dumb kings in history, and he has to dictate everything, but when he marches and fights, he completely listens to the arrangement of his old knight, and has a posture of employing people without suspicion - of course, to be honest, there is nothing to doubt, everyone is a member of the Dahl family, and even his own relatives don't believe it, so who else should he believe?
Although the old knight was too old to come out to sweep away the monsters this winter, the experience he had accumulated over the years did not deteriorate with his body, but grew older and stronger. He had already carefully analyzed all the demons and monsters in the territory, and listed several sets of combat strategies, as long as he followed the strategy when facing the enemy, even if he could not win, he would not be defeated.
And in his strategy, there is only one rule for the ogre camp: unless the ogres themselves make trouble, just hold the mountain and try to lure the ogres out. If you can't get it out, you'd rather give up than go up the mountain.
Most of the knights in Dahl were students of this old knight, or even his sons and nephews, so naturally they would not disobey him. What's more, even if they wanted to disobey, Baron Dahl himself would not agree. So after the group swept the entire territory and almost wiped out all kinds of dangerous monsters, they originally wanted to return triumphantly.
But at this moment, they felt the terrifying majesty pass through the sky and walked away.
"Dragon?!" The first to react was the old priest, who had worked in Void City and had frequent contacts with the Knights of the Church, and had seen the Knight Master fly over on a dragon more than once, and the dragon gave him a feeling similar to that at this moment.
...... No, it's a little weaker than at the moment, probably because he was restrained by Lord Gerald and didn't dare to make a big splash.
In other words, is this a giant dragon flying over everyone's heads?
At this time, everyone had already raised their heads and looked into the sky, but they saw dark clouds in the sky, where could they see the scene in the sky.
However, the astonishing power just now is absolutely impossible to fake.
Don't you see that all the pack horses in the team are already frightened and weak, and they lie on the ground and dare not move?
"How can there be a dragon passing by?" Baron Dahl, who was not far from the clergy at the moment, heard the old priest's words, and wondered, "We haven't seen a dragon here before." ”
"Maybe it's just a passing by. "The young dragon often wanders about, searching for treasure. It's not surprising to pass by once in a while. ”
"What treasure can we have in this small place?"
The military mage shook his head, he really didn't know.
He wanted to know what treasure there was here, and he would have gone and dug it up secretly by himself, and where would he keep it for the dragon to collect!
"Your Excellency...... I think the dragon just now seems to be ...... From the direction of the mountain where the ogre lived. One of the knights suddenly said, "Could it be that it just ransacked the ogre?"
When these words came out, everyone was stunned.
It's a bit absurd, but it's reasonable to think about it. The ogres had been occupying the mountain for years, and they might have saved up something precious enough to lure the dragon into a bandit.
A group of ogres is naturally very powerful for Dahlling, but for dragons, what is it?
Thinking of this, everyone is relieved.
Anyway, those ogres were a pinch to Dahl, and the dragon killed them, which was a good thing!
Baron Dahl lowered his head and groaned.
He thought for a moment, and looked at the thief who had been hired at a high price, but immediately moved away and moved to the two rangers of the Void Mask Church.
"I have something I want to ask you two for. He smiled first, and then said, "I'd like to ask you two to go and check around the ogre camp to see if the ogres are in a mess......?" Is there a chance to take advantage of it?"
Eventually, he told the story.
The old knight of the distant uncle had said that if you want to deal with ogres, you must not go up the mountain unless something happens to them themselves.
In other words, if the ogres make trouble on their own, then it is not impossible for a few elites to exterminate them.
The two rangers didn't have as many fancy guts as him, but they already understood what he meant, and looked at each other, and then at the Kabbalah priest.
The priests of the Church of the Void Mask are led by this priest.
"If your body can afford it, it's okay to take a run. The Kabbalah priest immediately said, "But be sure to be safe, and deal with those ogres, there will be opportunities in the future." I really can't do it, I can ask for help from the headquarters in a few days......"
With his words, the two rangers naturally had a bottom in their hearts, and left with a greeting. About an hour later, they returned to the group.
The news they brought verified everyone's guesses.
The ogres had been attacked by the dragons, and the camp was now in chaos, and it seemed that the shaman at the head was dead.
Upon receiving this news, Baron Dahl immediately gritted his teeth and made up his mind.
Don't miss the opportunity, he's going to crusade against the ogre camp!(To be continued.) )
