457. Elite Exploration Team

The city of Vłřímara is more crowded than in previous days.

The busy streets were full of warriors walking in groups, dressed in leather trousers, long boots, and thin linen shirts, rarely with weapons, and at most with daggers tied to their thighs.

As for the knights, they were dressed much more orthodox, they wore hard leather armor, knights' swords on their waists, and even when they walked, they had to straighten their waists, which made them look a little different from the crowd.

Bena province was constantly pumping armaments and relief supplies to the maca plane, and horse-drawn wagons from the airport docks drove to the warehouses in various areas of the city, and a group of poor children often followed the grain wagons, always expecting a piece of wheat cake to fall out of one of the grain bags without the mouth of the cart fastened.

However, this probability is very small, and usually the wheat cakes they pick up are secretly thrown by those members of the logistics department sitting in the carriage.

A regiment of neatly armored infantry crossed the main street, and the horse-drawn carriages on the street avoided both sides of the road.

Standing on the bell tower of the city of Vožmara, Surdak raised his eyes to look at the scenery of the city, and could see that the troops who had received the task of participating in the battle were gathering along the various streets towards the city gate, and the fire and smoke of war outside the city were filled, and the heavy cavalry regiment had already stood in an offensive formation outside the city gate along the drawbridge that crossed the moat.

Samira, the half-elven archer, sat on the edge of the eaves on the periphery of the bell tower, her legs dangling in the air, her arms leaning back in support of her body, the morning breeze blowing through her fine hair, and the corners of her water chestnut-shaped mouth rising slightly.

At this time, looking outside the city, there are many fewer hellhounds besieging the city.

On the edge of the moat outside the castle was a huge pile of Cerberus corpses, and in the billowing smoke there was a faint upward flame, which was said to have been burning for three days, but since new Cerberus corpses were always thrown into the pile every day, the fire still showed no signs of extinguishing.

Some alchemists in the city said that this was a waste, and if there was a large enough cauldron, it would be possible to refine a lot of grease out.

The Bena army gradually grasped the initiative in the battlefield outside the city of Warzhmara, and the residents here saw the hope of victory in the dimensional war, especially since the Marquis of Luthor's Constructed Swordsmen Regiment had already left for the second battlefield, and it was believed that good news would follow soon.

A group of heavy cavalry rushed into the Hellhound camp and slaughtered the besieging dogs outside the city, but even in such a disadvantageous situation, the Hellhounds still did not choose to evacuate the city of Warzmara.

Surdak asked curiously, "Why don't you say this hellhound has evacuated Vorymara?" ”

Samira, the half-elven archer, looked at the hellhounds in the outer city, shook his head, and did not speak.

……

To celebrate the victory in the Battle of Umezu, the guard battalions of the three cities held a celebratory ball at the square station.

The knights of the guard battalion are usually responsible for managing the security of the city, and they are already half out of the scope of the army, so the military discipline is lax, in addition to allowing alcohol at this ball, the daring knights of the guard battalion also invited the dancers of the city of Warzhmara to enter the barracks, which caused great dissatisfaction with the plane war command.

That night, the three commanders of the guard battalion, including Viscount Emmett, Viscount Owen, and Earl Collins, were called to the war headquarters for an interview, and the three commanders returned to the station with grim faces, and the celebratory dance ended hastily.

And the second battle led by Marquis Luthor led by the Constructed Swordsmen also ended early due to the early transfer of the hellhounds.

The Hellhounds in this area had been evacuated from the area before the Constructed Swordsmen arrived, and the guard battalion reconnaissance team in charge of this area did not find the Demon Gate or the Hell Passage, and then the guard battalion reconnaissance team decided to form several small teams and disperse in the jungle to expand the search area.

Due to the failure to find the Demon Gate, the Hellhound army is still pouring towards the city of Warzhmara, and the battle between the besieging Hellhound and the heavy cavalry has also begun to turn into a stalemate tug-of-war, the giant Hellhound and the three-headed Hellhound have appeared one after another, and the heavy cavalry regiment has also begun to suffer casualties, and the war beast of the Maca plane has to devour tens of thousands of strategic materials every day.

The Bena Provincial Magic Guild once again mobilized fifty magicians to join the magic investigation team, and conducted a large-scale search of the area where the hellhounds appeared on the maca plane, although the wizard reconnaissance team was able to determine that the area where the hellhounds appeared was in the jungle area north of the city of Warzhmara, but they could not find the exact location.

In order to be able to find the demonic door as soon as possible, Marquis Luthor decided to increase the intensity of the ground search, and this search changed the previous centralized search mode of battalions and regiments, and changed it to a small group of elite combat teams to disperse the search.

One. In the middle of the night, nearly one hundred and fifty reconnaissance teams entered the jungle north of the city of Worimara.

At the same time, Marquis Luthor led two regiments of constructed swordsmen (nearly 1,000 people), a 1,500-strong heavy infantry regiment, and a 500-strong longbow regiment immediately rushed to the third exploration area, the situation here was a little complicated, the three guard battalions that went to explore this area were dragged to death by a group of hellhounds, and the three guard battalions were never able to completely get out of the battle.

……

Plane War Command recruits elite combat teams into the jungle to investigate the whereabouts of the Demon's Gate.

Factors such as the dangerous jungle, the unfamiliar environment, the changeable climate, the dangerous monsters, and the large number of hellhounds have made the danger of this mission directly rise to the point where ordinary warriors are daunted.

However, thanks to the efforts of Viscount Emmett, the Hylanza Guard Battalion finally joined the battle sequence outside the city of Warzhmara, although it was necessary to go out of the city to fight, but it was much safer than leaving the city to investigate. Viscount Emmett wanted to bring back the knights of the Haylantha City Guard Battalion this time, and fifty-seven Hylanza Guard Battalion knights were killed in the battle of Umezu Town, and they remained on the outskirts of Umezu Town forever.

Surdak was having dinner. Although the garrison in the city did not have to eat the marching rations, the vegetables and meat of the food were pitiful, and only the ogre, who sat in the pergola, ate with relish, and expected the knights of the guard battalion to eat less, so that the ogre could wrap up the rest of the food at the end of dinner.

Karl came back from the tent, sat down in front of Surdak, rubbed his forehead with his fingers and said to Surdak: "There are two ways for you to choose, one is to exchange military merits for teleportation tickets, and the other is to wait for half a year, as long as the Maga Plane War is over and the portal order returns to normal, it will be much easier for us to get a teleportation ticket through the relationship on the Bena City side." ”

"Wouldn't that have to wait half a year?" Surdak hesitated.

"If you want this big guy to pass through the portal, you have to go through very strict approval, and you definitely can't pass it during the war." Karl patted Surdak on the shoulder and said to him.

Karl had to prepare a battle plan for tomorrow, and after a brief chat, he returned to the military tent.

Surdak put down the plate in his hand, took a sip of the bland soup, and then walked out of the garrison of the Hylanza guard camp, and the half-elf archer Samira, who was sitting in the tent, chased after him like a light deer.

……

The next morning, Viscount Emmett announced today's battle plan to the knights of the guard battalion, who needed to capture a mound occupied by hellhounds outside the city, and lay iron nets and large traps on the hill to block the hellhounds.

Carl's support squadron was in the first offensive echelon, and Viscount Emmett also considered that the support squadron performed extremely well in the small town of Umezu, with constructed knights like Surdak and strong ogre warriors, so he put them at the forefront to obtain military merits.

Surdak stood next to Karl and said in a low voice, "Karl, I have decided to join the elite reconnaissance team. ”

Karl didn't expect Surdak to choose to take the risk, he turned his head to look at Surdak and asked, "Dak, are you serious?" ”

Surdak nodded: "Of course, after thinking about it, I decided to use my battle exploits to exchange a teleportation ticket for Gulitem." ”

"Hey! …… Duck. Karl turned his head to look at Surdak, and at this time he wanted to persuade him a few words, when Surdak took out a parchment order, and the red stamp printed on it made Carl shut up.

Surdak stepped forward, hugged Karl, smiled at Karl, and said, "I got the command order, and I will take the magic airship to the northern outskirts of Warjmara City later, if you want to do something for me, then wish me good luck!" ”

Karl pushed Surdak away fiercely, slammed his fist on the shoulder, and said with a bruise on his forehead: "I really shouldn't have let you join the guard battalion, you are a madman on the battlefield!" ”

Under Karl's watchful eye, Surdak led the three members of the vigilante team out of the guard camp station.

"Surdak ......" Karl stood in the square, pointed his finger at the scorching sun in the sky, and shouted: "Wherever you go, don't forget the way back!" ”

Surdak also raised his right hand high at this time, pointing to the sun in the sky.

……

Surdak led Samira, Andrew, and Gulitham to the airport dock, and the tall ogre immediately attracted the attention of many people around him.

Surdak did not stop because of this, walked directly to a responsible officer, handed a piece of parchment in his hand to the officer's hand, the officer glanced at Surdak, nodded slightly, turned around and took out a map of the suburbs of Warzhmara from the box behind him and handed it to Surdak, and said to him: "Weapons, armor and marching rations are your own, every seven days there will be a magic airship will return to the ground, if you are in danger, you can use magic flares, good luck!" ”

Many Constructed Knights gathered in front of the airport docks from all over the city, and they came to the officer in charge to collect the map, and then boarded the magic airship.

Two magic airships were moored on the dock, and the bag coolies near the dock looked at the two magic airships, hoping that the captain of the airship could come down and select a few strong laborers to fill his ship with cargo, but unfortunately more and more construction knights were coming, and these construction knights did not know each other, but they had the same mission.

The atmosphere on the airport dock was a bit heavy, and some people whispered to the surrounding construction knights.

Surdak's team is a bit special, they choose to stand in the corner of the magic airship, the ogre Gulitham sits on the side of the magic airship, looking at the lively airport dock with new eyes, no one wants to withstand the pressure brought by the ogre, come and exchange information with them.

In this way, the crew on the airship withdrew the planks on the airship and loosened the rope tied to the airport dock, as the winch put the rope away little by little, the float made a rumbling roar, and the magic airship floated into the air little by little, the three-masted sails on the ship slowly rose, and the warm south wind blew the airship northward like an invisible hand.

Surdak unfolded the map on the airship, this time the search mission included the vast northern outskirts of the city of Warjmara, and since the approximate range previously given by the mage reconnaissance team had been swooped down, the search area was expanded by nearly twenty times, so as not to miss a single place where the demon's gate might be hidden.

There are as many as fourteen places on this map where the magic airship docks, and there are also fourteen places marked on the map with another color, which is said to be the place where another magic airship is responsible, that is, every seven days, there will be airships in these areas to pick up the knights to return to the city of Warjmara.

There are already a number of Constructed Knights sitting on deck, discussing the area where the Demon Gate is hiding with the members of the squad around them, in order to find the nearest landing place to disembark.

Surdak set his gaze on Samira, a half-elven archer with a hood.

Samira lifted her hood, revealing her bright red eyes, pointed to the farthest place on the map, and said directly: "Since these areas have been searched countless times, we can target here, this area is more complicated, and there are not so many water systems, it is likely to be the area of activity of hellhounds." ”

"But this is almost out of the main search area, and according to the Wizard Scout's mark on it, there are no signs of a large number of hellhounds in this area." The indigenous warrior Andrew gave a different opinion.

The half-elf archer glanced up at Andrew and said, "Those marks don't mean anything......"

"Okay, let's choose this place!" Surdak didn't have a better option when the landing site was decided.

Watching the elite squads on the airship disembark at various landing sites one after another, the magic airship quickly became empty, and at the last two farthest landing sites, only Surdak's team was left on the magic airship.

The captain of this magic airship walked up to Surdak, he held a wine bottle in one hand and a map in the other, pointed to the farthest place on the map, and admonished Surdak: "This is the farthest place of contact, don't go too far, there are almost no hellhounds here, and there are very few magic detectives, so pay more attention to safety, no one can help you in case of danger!" ”

Surdak glanced gratefully at the gray-haired captain and nodded.
