Early that morning, the mayor of Clay rang the alarm bell in the center of the town. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

When Sherva heard the bell, she threw away the sledgehammer in her hand, pulled the confused Lin Cheng out of the house, and ran to the center of the town with the townspeople.

Lin Cheng asked, "What's wrong, is there anything big happening?"

Sherva whispered, "The mayor has sounded the warning bell, then something big must have happened, although I don't know what it is." Let's be careful and see what the situation is before making a decision. ”

"Well, listen to you. ”

The wrinkled mayor waited until all the townspeople had gathered, and then clapped his hands for everyone to be quiet.

After everyone was quiet, the mayor cleared his throat and waved his hand to everyone in the audience and said loudly: "My dear townspeople, today is a great day, the envoy of the Roland Empire arrived in this town this morning, announcing that His Royal Highness the Grand Prince of the Roland Empire, the archmage of the protector Orlan, and many escorts will fight in the Warcraft Forest again in three days......"

Before the old mayor could finish his words, everyone in the audience exclaimed in unison.

"Wow, it's finally time to conquer the Warcraft Forest again, that's great. ”

"His Royal Highness the Great Prince personally conquers the ......"

"Hey, although His Royal Highness the Great Prince is very noble, you have to pay attention to what the mayor said later. The mage who came this time is amazing, it is Orlan, the supreme protector of the entire empire, and even His Majesty the Emperor has to give him three points. ”

Lin Cheng looked at Sherva, who was flushed with excitement, in surprise and said, "The Imperial Conquest of the Warcraft Forest belongs to the Imperial Imperial Family, why are you so excited?"

Sherva said with a flushed face: "How can you not be excited, every time the empire finishes the Warcraft Forest, the people in our town can make a fortune together." You already know that the forest outside the town is the Warcraft Forest. Usually we only dare to hunt on the outskirts of the forest, and spend a lot of effort to cast many traps to catch those small prey. “

Lin Cheng nodded and agreed: "Yes, the strength of those little rabbits and pheasants is really amazing, the teeth and claws are also long and sharp, coupled with the lightning speed, I still don't dare to catch it alone." “

Sherva continued, "Hmph! Tell you, these little things are nothing. The big beasts in the depths of the forest are terrifying. There are even magical monsters in the depths of the forest, which is why that forest is called the Monster Forest. “

Hearing the word magic, Lin Cheng's interest greatly increased, and he asked, "So in this way, the meaning of the empire's conquest of the Warcraft Forest is to enter the depths of the forest and hunt those Warcraft?"

Sherva nodded, "Yes, it's to hunt those terrifying monsters." “

Lin Cheng was puzzled: "But what does this have to do with us, could it be that they hunted the demonic beasts and sent some to the town?"

Shelva said, "Don't dream, how could those precious Warcraft Empires be sent away." ”

"Then what are you so happy about? ”

Sherva smiled, "Don't think about Warcraft, but those ordinary Beast Empires have always been disdainful. Every time the Empire conquers the Warcraft Forest, countless beast corpses are left behind along the way. All we have to do is follow them from a distance, pick up those beasts, and sell them in the big city, and we can make a fortune. A large beast is full of treasures, at least worth dozens of gold coins. ”

Speaking of which, Shelva's eyes were about to turn into gold coins.

Lin Cheng asked again, "Does the empire often conquer the Warcraft Forest?"

Shelva said, "No, since the establishment of the Empire, the Warcraft Forest has only been conquered once every hundred years. ”

"How many times has the Empire been at war?"

"Well, the empire has been founded for more than a thousand years, and it must have fought a dozen times. ”

Lin Cheng asked again: "Since the demonic beasts in the Demonic Beast Forest are so precious, why haven't I seen mercenaries enter that forest to hunt those demonic beasts?"

Shelva looked at him with an idiotic gaze: "Except for the group with a large number of mages, no one will survive entering the depths of that forest." Until now, only the royal families of the empires had such a large number of magicians. Aside from the royal family, have you seen any other magicians in the past two years?"

Lin Cheng nodded and said, "I've seen it." “

Sherva was shocked: "Where have you seen this? How do I not know?"

Lin Cheng said strangely: "It's the magician who saved me, Frank, you said he was the elder of our town or something." “

Sherva was stunned for a moment, then suddenly said, "Oh, so you're talking about Elder Frank." He was indeed a magician, but, anyway, Elder Frank's magic was not offensive. It's that kind of protection. In other words, he is very good at saving people and protecting, and the magician that everyone usually talks about is the kind of mage with destructive power. “

Lin Cheng sighed and said, "But I've only seen one mage like Elder Frank, according to your words, there should be many such mages." “

Sherva smiled, "How could it be a lot, even if Elder Frank's magic is not offensive, he is still a noble mage. As long as it is a magician, the imperial family will vigorously recruit it, but it will not be so attentive. “

"Oh, speaking of which, why is it that only the royal family has so many magicians, aren't magicians so high and noble, and why are they willing to serve the Empire?"

Shelva was stunned: "Yes, those magicians are still very arrogant, and they can't all be willing to serve the Empire, but I don't know why." “

Lin Cheng touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "There must be some reason, for human nature, when you have the power to look down on everyone, there is no fatal reason, it is difficult to be willing to serve others." What is fatal to a magician?"

The two looked at each other and said in unison, "The power of magic......?

Shelva whispered, "Could it be that the power of this magic was given to them by the royal family, and not their own?"

A fine light flashed in Lin Cheng's eyes, and he also whispered: "There is such a possibility." “

The mayor on the stage did not stop everyone's discussion, and waited quietly for a long time, until everyone's voices became quieter, and then continued: "Dear townspeople, Elder Frank of our town has personally gone to meet the Imperial troops, I want you to prepare delicious fruit wine and delicious food to welcome the heroes of the Imperial Expedition to the Warcraft Forest. ”

Amid the applause, the mayor stepped down from the high platform.

Three days later, early in the morning, the mayor of Clay led all the townspeople out of town to meet the Imperial forces.

Lin Cheng looked at the long line from afar, bright armor, sharp spears, tall war horses, and dozens of magicians guarding the center of the troops.

"Huh?" Lin Cheng said to Shelva, who was watching the excitement on the side, "Didn't you say that there were a large number of magicians, wouldn't this large number mean dozens of them?" I think there may be less than forty of these magicians." “

Sherva glanced at him, "Hmph, it's less than forty? My God, do you seem to be a Chinese cabbage for a magician? Do you think a lot is hundreds or even thousands? It's naïve." “

Although the townspeople were very welcoming, except for the horseback soldiers who greeted the periphery, they couldn't get in touch with the mage group in the center of the army at all, and the Grand Prince of the Empire and the Protector Archmage Orran never even appeared.

The Imperial troops rested here for a day and a night, recuperating their energy, and early the next morning, they walked directly into the Warcraft Forest.

Sherva whispered to Lin Cheng, "Don't worry, we can follow up the forest tomorrow." If you follow now, you will be disposed of as spies by those soldiers. They never allowed anyone to watch them fight. “

"So domineering?"

"It's okay, at least we can still pick up those beast carcasses and make a fortune, so what do we care about?"

"Whew. Sherva added, "Let's go, I'll have to build a few farm tools today." “

Lin Cheng hugged his chest with one hand, stroked his chin with the other, a glint flashed in his eyes, and said softly: "You go get busy first, I have something to do." “

"What do you have to do? Forget it, go back quickly, and remember not to enter the forest today, or no one will be able to save you." “

"Don't worry, you won't go. “

"Well, then I'll go to work first. “

"Good. “

Lin Cheng looked at Sherva who was walking away, stroking the pistol stuck in his waist, he had a strong premonition, this was a good opportunity to unlock the secrets of magicians in this world.

In the original world, although Lin Cheng's combat power was not strong, he had a title that all mercenaries feared: Black Wolf!

The black wolf who incarnates in the dark of the night has unparalleled tracking and anti-tracking skills. Once the prey is targeted by him, it never escapes from his palm. The Black Wolf has a low combat power, but his reconnaissance power is terrifyingly strong, gathering intelligence and tracking enemies to the point of supernatural skill.

No matter how strong the enemy is, in his constant reconnaissance, he can always find one weak point after another, and then formulate a plan to defeat the enemy with one blow.

Although the Imperial forces were numerous, Lin Cheng didn't think they would be able to find themselves at all. He wasn't ready to fight each other hard, he just wanted to find out the secret of the magician.

One of Lin Cheng's tracking skills, camouflage.

His disguise can make the wolves who are half a step close to him think that he is his kind and ignore him, the birds will stop at him as a harmless tree, and of course the cavalry will think that he is also a soldier of the Empire.

On a march in a large force like this, there will certainly be spare horses and armor, as well as weapons. After lunch, a soldier on horseback quietly appeared in the large group.

In such a dangerous environment as the Warcraft Forest, Lin Cheng was not at all worried that they would have the energy to check the armaments. If they really have the energy to check, it's good to sneak around while they do.
