Chapter 452: The Plan to Take the Initiative
Although most people don't understand the conversation that excites someone, there are still people who understand it with quick brains. Uzhov's eyes lit up first, and he slightly understood the meaning of what the magician had said to him.
Despite this, most people were still puzzled, and Halumi asked, "Teacher, this... Pandas, what does it have to do with us if we can't go far away? "As core members of the Haun Society, none of them used real names in their conversations, but pseudonyms.
And according to Fin, those fake names are the names of the Dark Legion in the first place. In other words, this small organization, a group of people, wants to replace the entire dark army.
For an apprentice who doesn't have the ropes, someone would love to take a drill and make a hole in her head. However, someone who thinks he has a good temper is still patient, explaining: "Everything we do now is just passively collecting intelligence. The advantage is that hiding in the shadows can keep the other party on guard. But sometimes you need to cooperate with the initiative to pry open other people's mouths and get the information we want. However, the premise of this is that our existence will not be exposed. In other words, it won't be exposed for the time being. When they are all in the same place, there is more or less of them, which will cause them to be alarmed. But what if someone wants to leave at this time? ”
A rhetorical question, everyone instantly understood the intention behind this. Kaya quickly found a few key words from the conversation. In the destination city of Plzeň, there will be a team of guards on the morning of the departure time, and the purpose seems to be to investigate the murder of the high priest.
Halumi, who was supposed to control the real picture and expand its coverage to the whole of Storm Bay, and even zoomed in to include the surrounding terrain and roads, was stunned when he heard Kaya's report. The operation in his hand stopped, and he looked up and asked, "Is this the one that has something to do with us?" ”
"Well, I guess so. Unless they're so weak that they lose their men over there twice. But how long has it been since I thought of investigating? Are they too confident that people will wait for them to come to their door, or is there another way to track us down? Lin said. But he still changed his words, regardless of the intentions of the group, and said directly: "We can't fully grasp the situation inside Storm Bay City, so it would be better to set the interception point outside the city." So how many ways can I get to Plzeň from here? ”
He may not be as procedural as Kaya, but Harumi is also quite skilled in controlling the map. She quickly pulled out a map of the area between Storm Bay and Plzeň, and marked all the roads connecting the two. Lin glanced at it and said, "Concentrated on the road at the end of Storm Bay, it's impossible for us to run to Plzen City to intercept him. ”
Ignoring Uzov, who was already stunned by this fancy operation, the map controlled by Harumi narrowed down again. Lin looked at the several routes that extended from Storm Bay, and the one that started from the south of the city was actually the road that he walked to Storm Bay. It's just that you have to go to Plzeň City and walk directly, without deliberately taking a detour through the Elven Kingdom.
Starting from the east or north of the city, it is actually just a big circle. In any case, the other party will pass the forest road on the cliff. Although there are many options for paths in the forest, the range is already much smaller for those who intend to intercept each other.
Lin looked at it for a while, and didn't continue to worry about how the other party would go, but asked, "Can you confirm how many guards they will have?" ”
Kaya shook her head as she repeated the conversation about travel. Lin reinstructed, saying, "Search for everyone's conversations, keywords: Pandas, guards." ”
"There it is." Although the black-haired and brown-skinned girl was also expressionless, there was a hint of excitement in her voice. She quickly pulled up a conversation about being a guard for Pandas, a core member of the Order of Grace, and the speaker said that he would bring his trusted companions and travel on horseback.
Based on who was talking to the person he was talking to, and the faces that Uzov recognized, Kaya quickly put together a list of the six-man team. This is a gang of bandits who are notorious in nearby towns and have committed many heinous crimes. What is even more terrifying is that the dead who die at their hands are rarely intact, and it is not difficult to imagine what kind of cruel abuse those people suffered during their lifetimes.
To deal with such an opponent, of course, a group of people does not have any psychological burden, just fight to the death. However, Lin still arranged everyone first, and said: "Tomorrow's matter, Kaya will stay behind, monitor the other party's movements, and report back at any time, and the rest of the people will go to this place in the woods to ambush." —" As he spoke, Lin pointed to a corner of the woods on the map, "—the rest ...... Well, we'll talk about that then. ”
"Ah, that's it?" Uzov was stunned and asked: "Isn't it planned how to attack and what tactics to use?" ”
"Yes, that's fine." After a big yawn, Lin said: "The tacit cooperation between us is not enough, and no matter how we arrange tactically, we may not be able to deal with emergencies." If you really want to say it, at least everyone will have someone to deal with at that time, show their greatest ability, and kill the other party as soon as possible. The rest is improvisation. ”
"So, do you still need manpower? I can help, and I can find some more people to help. Uzov asked casually.
"No, the more people there are, the more likely they are to change unpredictably. If you want to help, you'll be alone. With that, Lin got up and prepared to go out.
Seeing this, Uzov also got up and asked, "Your Excellency, are you ...... now?" ”
Yawning again, Lin said, "I'm going to go to sleep after tossing enough during the day." I have to block people early tomorrow morning, and I can't do it if I don't have energy. It's about your own life. The second half of the sentence that was not spoken was: The spirit is not good, even if you are not killed by the other party, you may run away because of a mistake, and be slaughtered by the angry lich.
In addition, although the flash technique does not seem to be consumed, it must remain in mid-air, and after the arcane eye detects for a certain amount of time, it chooses the next place to move. These are not done with procedural judgment, they are completely controlled by the human brain.
And for each flash, it would take at least nearly a minute or so for the Arcane Eye to complete its initial scan. The time consumed by these clips is all patience. Someone suddenly remembered himself in the second year of secondary school, where did the patience to practice video games and RPGs to level 99 come from.
With another yawn, Lin ran to the empty bed in the next room. As soon as he fell, he fell asleep unconscious. One of the people who was the backbone of the heart slipped away first, and of course the rest of the people washed and slept. As the man said, tomorrow morning there will be a whole day.
However, the two girls were very consciously responsible for the vigil, because tomorrow Kaya would stay behind and there would be no need to go out to fight. Therefore, Harumi first kept watch for the first half of the night, and then it was Kaya's turn to watch for the second half of the night, and at the same time monitor the target person, and some necessary arrangements had been made.
In the middle of the night, the tavern owner, Uzov Gantia, had just finished writing a long letter from his former comrades-in-arms through the same mail system as the forum, created by him but less widely used.
What we have seen and heard today proves that the One created more than just those things that were made public. Any one of them may be enough to shake the whole world. It's just that such a man is following the demon king. In this case, to say that everyone can be very reassured is only self-deception.
So he felt the need to supervise all this, even if it really happened, he couldn't stop it, but at least someone could warn him first. And the price is that as long as you sacrifice yourself, it is quite cost-effective. Looking out the window at the starry sky, Uzov smiled. It didn't occur to the man that what he had created was in some ways a weapon to spy on himself.
…… Really, is that so? Kaya, who had just been handed over, sat in the room showing the zoomed down scene of Sanssouci Palace, and noticed that the first coffin had intercepted an anomalous package sent at close range. She didn't think about it, opened it and looked at it, made a copy, and forwarded the packet. Everything was as if it hadn't happened, except for the copy of the email that was stored in the coffin and in a specific folder.
Early in the morning, the group arrived at the predetermined ambush site early, but there was no sense of tension. If it weren't for the fact that everyone was fully armed, they would have thought that this group of people was just here for an outing.
The four silverbearded dwarves have no ...... for the time being. It is also possible that they will never be able to use peaceful arms, so now they are traveling lightly. A piece of chain mail, a small round shield, a horned helmet, and a hammer that is suitable for striking iron. After all, when traveling, many things can't be too particular, and being able to multi-purpose is the best choice. So the dwarves chose a hammer to take advantage of.
Halumi is a shortshirt and breeches, not a magician's robe. Her neck-length hair was tied into a ponytail, and the long whip of the vines of the World Tree hung around her waist. She also picked out some stones suitable for throwing with a sling, and received them in her waist pouch on the other side.
Although the same slings made of World Tree materials have the added effect of automatically replenishing Magic Stone Bullets. But according to his own teacher, there are some functions, if there is no need, don't easily show them in front of others, and they can be used as killer features in the future. It's just that the man who says this kind of thing always exposes new technology in front of people, which makes the girls hate it so much.
Uzov Gantiya put on equipment that had not been used for a long time, but was still well-maintained. Leather armor, bracers, and a pair of nimble and silent boots, a short sword, and a crossbow are all made with elaborate craftsmanship and materials, each with magical effects.
With such a net worth alone, I don't know how many warriors and thieves I have to envy and die. And these things are not fancy things, but partners who are really used, and accompany Uzov from birth to death several times. However, compared to the Fa Ye, this is not a poor acid, so what is a poor acid?
