Chapter 247: One Blow and Escape (Part II)
The Magic Chariot is described as a moving magic tower. Although the attack power is much weaker than that of the Magic Tower, it allows the mage to meditate anytime and anywhere, which is the biggest use. The mage's consumption on the chariot is reduced and the recovery is accelerated, which actually increases the combat effectiveness a lot.
Rex dumped the man to Salin to manage and meditated on his own. It won't be peaceful along the way, and if you don't get caught up in Tangulas's army at the Statue Castle, it doesn't mean that you won't be blocked in the future.
Saleen simply called Zola to the car and showed him a map of the Titans.
There are very few mountains north of the Chishui River, and the magic chariots can move at full speed, but so can the cavalry of the Tangulas Empire.
Zola glanced at the map and said, "Lord, we have to travel more than seven hundred miles, and the skeleton war horses can afford it, but those sword masters can't hold on all the time." We want to keep everyone fighting when we enter the Purgatory Desert. It is best to rest for more than eight hours a day, and a magician should help you recover. Excluding the time spent eating three times and setting up camp, we could only travel for less than ten hours a day. ”
"Ten hours, can the swordsman support it?"
"Take a three-hour break, as long as you get enough sleep. That's it. The skeleton warhorse is easy to control. ”
"That's nine hours, and we can travel at forty miles per hour. ”
"Lord, you can't count it like this, you have to count the rivers, mountains, encounters with enemies, etc. ”
"How long will it take?"
"If you're lucky, four days. ”
Salin breathed a sigh of relief, for four days, the Agareth family couldn't react. This is already an area occupied by the Tangulas Empire, and it is only necessary to guard against the troops of the Tangulas Empire.
Seeing that Salin was a little relaxed, Zola said, "My lord, be careful of Tangulas's army. Especially related to the Holy See, those people are really not afraid of death. In their view, death is the easiest way to enter the kingdom of heaven. ”
"What advice do you have?" Salin knew that he could not march and fight, so he asked Zola for advice. Zola was not a master either, but he was more familiar with both Yunliu and the Tangulas Empire than he was.
"The mages are tired, and if the county lord can provide a continuous alchemy crossbow so that the swordsman doesn't have to fight hard, we can maintain the speed. When people are tired, let alone skeleton war horses, they can't stand even riding in a car. ”
Rex opened his eyes, glanced at Zola, and took out twelve strangely shaped alchemy crossbows from the Ring of the HRE, the average alchemy crossbow is more than two meters wide and needs a stand. The twelve alchemy crossbows were less than a meter wide and had a raised crossbow box on them. The place that was supposed to be Jing Wheel was two magic arrays.
This alchemy crossbow can be wound quickly, and the arrows in the crossbow box will automatically slide into the crossbow slot, and the rate of fire is faster than that of a bow and arrow. The only drawback is that it is necessary to inlay the magic core, which is very expensive to build and repair. On average, before the end of its lifespan, each arrow fired by one of these alchemy crossbows consumes the equivalent of about three gold coins.
You must know that the salary of ordinary soldiers is only one gold coin a month, and some are less. The swordsman's salary is three to five gold coins, which is the standard for a professional army. Mercenaries earn a lot, but they are responsible for their own equipment, and the actual income may not be high, unless they are willing to take risks and use their lives to fight.
Rex exchanged all the alchemy crossbows for a level 5 magic core, so as not to consume them too quickly in battle. The magic core on the magic array cannot be installed without being a magician.
The team continued to rush through the night, for the night could not rest until the garrison near the Statue Castle had been completely freed.
In late autumn in October, the nights of the Titans are a little cold. Fortunately, there is no rainy winter like clouds, and it is not very difficult.
On the way, he encountered a remnant of soldiers, but it was the private soldiers of the Titan nobles, who were stunned by the Tangulas army. Zola did not hesitate, and rushed over with ten sword masters, directly killing the small remnants of more than thirty people.
Salin hesitated slightly, but did not stop Zola. His own troops weave through the cracks in the Titans' cities, most of which now have a garrison of Tangulas. Although these remnants are not a threat to themselves, they may leak the news.
They ran until the early hours of the morning, when the swordsmen couldn't hold it anymore and the team stopped. Zola looked for a hidden woods and rested in the woods. If it's a large group of people, it's terrible to camp in the woods. However, Salin's team was too small in number, and most of them were elite soldiers, so they were safe in the woods and not easy to find.
In order to subdue the metal Titans, Rex's magicians consumed a lot of mental power. All the mages rested in the car, while Saleen created the Repair Water for the swordsmen, and everyone cast the Spring Rain.
After dealing with the soldiers, Salin carefully arranged some magic traps, and then wrapped a lot of wires around the trunks of the big trees, these wires have no magical properties, hidden among the branches and leaves, and if someone wants to sneak attack from above, they will be entangled by the wires.
Zola was in good spirits, he stayed with Saleen, and Schika did not leave Rex. She also knew that the next thing for Saleen would need Rex to do.
After this very small camp was set up. Instead of returning to the carriage, Saleen set up a platform between the canopies and lay under a net of wires.
The woods here aren't too dense, and the moonlight can penetrate the canopy. Looking up at the starry sky, Salin couldn't sleep. He took out the family crest and rubbed it repeatedly. In the middle of the dark badge, the deep scar of the lightning star was tinged with a touch of blue.
I don't know when I will be able to return to Ceylon City, and the Count of Su Fangsu should still be alive. The world is in turmoil, and Skochenya is not immune, and the city of Yaoyang, where the Earl of the Soviet side is located, is still a port city, and it is a good supply point in the north of the mainland.
Saleen felt a little homesick, and an indescribable feeling suddenly struck.
"The hosts. "Nellis sneakily went up the tree.
"Why didn't you protect those mages?"
"There's Triss and them, and they don't need me. Master, aren't you waiting for me here?"
"Waiting for you?"
"Yes, four demons, you always have to know a little bit about their combat power and fighting style. I want you to gear them up. ”
Because of the sudden emotion, Salin didn't dwell on the problem between Neris and the demon, but just nodded.
Neris began to give Salin a detailed introduction to the races of the four demons, their abilities, the suitable fighting methods, and what kind of equipment they needed.
Salin took them all in mind before asking, "Nellis." How many demons like this can you summon?"
"Master, if you summon too much, you can't control it. If you summon demons, you can summon hundreds of them, and you can choose from them, all of which are equivalent to the level of a high-level swordsman. ”
"You say Tris is stronger than you?"
"Yes. Neris said with some fear: "If he hadn't been clever, I'm afraid I would never have seen the master again." ”
"I need a demon like Lola who is good at using weapons. ”
"Master, this depends on luck, this kind of demon follows the big demon, and it is difficult to be summoned. If you're not careful, if you attract the Great Demon, we'll all be finished. ”
"What about the demon worms?"
"Demon insects win by numbers, and they consume more food than their master's thunder dragon. I summoned the demon worm to feed the brontosaurus for my master. Some of the demon insects in the demon plane are very huge, and their combat power is extremely weak, and their appearance is like a worm that has been magnified hundreds of thousands of times.
Saleen was a little disgusted to listen to, but Neris continued to introduce Saleen to some common knowledge of the demon plane.
"Master, only in the enclosed space of the temple, the demon insects have some value, such as the ten swordsmen of Rex, one person can kill thousands of demon insects, as long as they have fully enclosed magic armor. The lifespan of demon insects is short, and they are useless, and the little devils feed on demon insects. ”
"Nellis, isn't the little devil more powerful than the demon, why do you say that you can summon a high-level swordsman-level demon?"
"The appearance of the demon is very similar to that of a human, and it is very fast to learn the martial arts of a human being, and if it is equipped, I mean, it can be equivalent to the combat power of a high-level swordsman. ”
"I read the book that it says that the demon may be a hybrid of a human and a demon, and that he can learn human magic, is it true?"
"No, the strength of demons is naturally a hundred times greater than that of humans. If the master doesn't use magic, he won't be able to defeat the demon. ”
Saleen's physical fitness is quite junior swordsman, but he doesn't have the corresponding skills, and he understands his weaknesses.
"It's hard to summon demons?" Salin analyzed carefully, and heard the flaw in Neris's words. If you want to have strong combat power, you obviously can't rely on demons, and in the demon plane, the status of demons is not even as good as that of small demons.
Nellis said to Ai Ai: "Master, this 4%¥%%......"
Saleen immediately felt that something was wrong, and that Neris would not speak fluently now only when she was in trouble.
Seeing Saleen glaring at herself, Neris knew she would have to say sooner or later. I had to bite the bullet and say: "I used some high-grade materials from my master, as well as six high-grade magic cores......"
Salin Qi Knot, the high-level magic core is simply a valuable thing. Except for the high-level magic cores obtained in the temple and the Divine Punishment Hell, Salin had not even seen more than two seventh-level magic cores elsewhere. In the equipment shop, all the magic cores above level 7 are sold separately, and the magician has the right to buy them.
After Salin advanced to the Magic Wizard, if he wanted to quickly recover the magic string, he could only rely on the high-level magic core, and Neris used up six at once.
"Master, punish me. Neris stuck to Saleen, looking like she had accepted punishment.
"How long can these four demons stay on the Myers Continent?" asked Salin holding back his anger. If it's a temporary summoning, it's a big loss.
"As long as I don't die, they don't want to go back!" replied Neris with her head bowed.
"Six high-level magic cores, hey! Nellis, the rest of the magic cores should be kept for me. Salin stretched out her hand, and Nellis reluctantly took out the high-grade magic core that Saleen had given her for safekeeping.
