Chapter 43: Ambush

The night in the green forest is very dangerous, and the elves will be able to greatly increase their combat power at this time, and will be able to perform a new archery technique that will make the arrows shot as ghostly as undetectable. Therefore, Lina never stopped the walking forest at night, but chose the stupid way of waiting until daytime to go out and cut down trees. After all, ordinary warriors and officers simply could not resist the magic arrows fired by the elves at night.

Luckily, these arrows can only be used in the forest. Once out of the forest's range, the lethality drops dramatically. If the elves could attack the people in the city with such arrows, Lina would have been beaten back to Norland long ago.

Reilly and the others sat in a clearing, surrounded by an eerie black mist.

The ninth-level magic dark canopy has the effect of blocking light and blinding perception. Once within its range, it is almost impossible for creatures below the Sanctuary to escape. Under Reilly's control, the black fog blends into the night, making it almost impossible to discern with the naked eye.

The ambush site chosen by Reilly was about fifty kilometers from the city, a place that was still some distance from the coverage of the Will of the Forest, but it was also an area that the Norlanders had never set foot in, and the elves could not have imagined that the enemy would appear here.

Reilly deliberately avoided the nearby trees and chose a bush as a shelter. After all, the forest is the home of the elves, and God knows which tree is their eyes.

In the forest at night, dozens of agile elven hunters jumped forward, their figures skillfully blended into the forest, ordinary creatures could hardly find these elven hunters with vision, and the darkness and forest were their natural umbrellas.

Reilly and the others sat there silently, letting the elven hunters pass. They are extremely sensitive to moving objects, but tend to ignore stationary objects. Under the effect of the dark canopy, even if the elves' eyes occasionally swept over the area, they would not see anything.

After the elven hunters passed, Reilly turned on his divine vision, and a mysterious purple light flashed in his eyes!

Hundreds of meters away, a flowing shadow suddenly stopped, looking around in disbelief. It was a nearly transparent cheetah, instinctively sensing danger as it was stared at by Reilly.

After a few moments, three slightly larger cheetahs came up to it, and then transformed into three elderly elves.

"What's wrong, Reikaze?" one of them asked.

The little cheetah changed into a fair-eyed teenager and said, "I always feel that someone is staring at me, but there is nothing here, is it because I am delusional?"

The old man's face changed, and he said hurriedly, "Hurry up!"

However, they have lost the opportunity to escape.

A bolt of lightning pierced the night sky and struck the young druid, then jumped a few more times, bringing down the other three druids.

In order to avoid startling the snake, Rayleigh did not use the traditional method of casting spells, but instantly unleashed a chain of lightning at level 8 in a calm state, turning the four druids into charcoal.

Nereus was about to go over to inspect the corpses of those druids, but was held down by Reilly: "Don't worry, the battle is not over yet. With that, he began to bombard the surrounding trees with the Flame Blast. The sound of a huge explosion was heard far away, and the sky-high fire was as conspicuous as a lighthouse.

Richard and the others immediately understood Reilly's intentions, and they all focused their attention on the direction where the elven hunters had left before.

Moments later, the elven hunters rushed back. Seeing four druids fall to the ground, they all behaved differently. Some were so frightened that they jumped down from the trees to check on the druids, others hid in the canopy and kept looking around to find their enemies, and others were shooting arrows indiscriminately in an attempt to dispel their uneasiness.

In the next moment, the black mist that enveloped Reilly and the others suddenly spread, devouring most of the elven hunters. Richard, Splash, Neris, Agamemnon, as well as the Sanctuary swordsman Sher and the archmage Pamir they had brought with them, all moved together to kill the elves, and a terrible scream suddenly rang out, and then quickly subsided.

After the black fog cleared, Reilly and the others quickly cleaned up the battlefield, and then walked out of the forest with the loot.

At this moment, an elven hunter was running as fast as he could.

When the dark canopy erupted, this elven hunter was the only one who wasn't caught up in it. He carefully hid nearby, not daring to rush into the black mist.

When the black fog cleared, he desperately covered his mouth and swallowed the screams and wails back into his stomach. Then he ran as fast as he could, deep into the forest. He was going back to the tribe and telling the Great Elder what had happened here.

However, the elven hunter did not know that he was followed by a girl in a trench coat, and that his actions would bring ruin to the tribe.

――――――――――――――――――――

After returning to the base city, Reilly said to Richard and Neris, "We are going to attack the elven lair soon, but this time we can't bring more than a hundred people, and I will use magic to strengthen the team's mobility." ”

"No problem. "Richard's followers are extraordinary, and Neres is also full of talent, not to mention Agamemnon.

After a few moments, a team of dozens of people was assembled in the city. Richard brought Lina and all his followers, as well as five Constructed Knights, Reilly brought thirty Knights of the Dawn and ten golden-robed mages, and Nereus brought Sher and Pamir, and the accompanying guards were all at least level 14. Such a strong team, even if it is surrounded by a large army, can easily kill.

Reilly rolled his eyes and said, "What are you bringing these ordinary warriors out for?"

"You have to weigh the will of the forest. Richard smiled and said, "Even if they can't hold on, they can stay where they are and wait for us to come back." ”

"Whatever you want. Reilly shrugged his shoulders and said.

Richard was in no hurry to set off, he carefully checked the equipment and supplies carried by the warriors before turning over and saying, "Everyone, get ready, we may have to spend a few days in the forest this time." ”

At this moment, a fiery figure rushed forward and shouted, "Wait!

Richard looked back and saw that it was Daimei. His face sank, and he said, "This time we have to pass through the forest of more than 200 kilometers and raid the lair of the green forest elves, which is very difficult and dangerous, this is not a joke!"

Dai Mei's face raised and she said, "When did Akmund ever fear danger!"

"But your strength is still very weak. Richard said lightly: "This time, no one will come to take care of you." ”

"I've been in the war many times and don't need to be taken care of!"

Looking at Dai Mei with a resolute face, Richard also had a headache.

In all fairness, Daimei's strength is already very good. She followed Richard in Faro and grew up very quickly. However, Richard didn't want her to take risks with him. Ever since Gordon disappeared into the Alternate Plane, he had protected the man's sons and daughters as fledglings. Even raising lions into sheep is better than dying in battle.

The survival rate of a strong person who has been fighting in the heterotopic plane for a long time will not exceed 50%. And many more people have not yet grown into strong people, and they have turned into dust in a strange world.

"A lion is a lion after all, and it is not okay to keep it on the estate. Reilly smiled and said, "The wilderness is where it belongs." ”

Richard sighed and said, "If you want to go, then change this outfit first." Don't be red, make it easy to move. I don't care where you get your clothes from, but you only have five minutes. ”

Daimei didn't hesitate to rush away, looking at her back, Richard seemed to see himself at the beginning.

Reilly pointed at Daimei, then at Richard, and said, "Too young." ”

Nereus and Agamemnon nodded in unison.
