Chapter 944: The line of troops is broken, and support has arrived

Originally, when Xia Duo and Master Byron were exploring the Lost Lock, the first way he thought of it was actually to fill the space with fishmen and throw them from a high altitude.

This is naturally a way to deal with it, but to fly frequently, even if you have the ability to control the clouds, it is also a heavy physical work.

It's far less comfortable than standing directly on the shore and crushing it with your personal space, and the price you pay is just a few daily surplus arcane energy crystals.

Soon, the sky gradually darkened, and the fish-men in the river near the big rock on the bank where Xia Duo was standing were more than a little more sparse than when he came.

However, through his control of the waters, Xia Duo can also clearly perceive that there are more fishmen moving here in the distance, and there are quite a few of them.

Obviously, those who can take the initiative to move are fishmen who have awakened their self-awareness.

But Xia Duo has decided to change places, and here, it may not be able to calm down, all the fishmen who have awakened their self-consciousness in the vicinity will come here to compete for food, and a fight within the fishmen is inevitable.

It can be regarded as a bit of a containment of the fish-man's southward movement.

Of course, that's not enough.

Then Shado rose from the stone and flew south in the evening wind.

Every once in a while, he would create a batch of "Fishman Sauce" to attract the Wise Fishmen, and then try to get rid of some of them before moving on.

In this way, it was not until near the town of Savile that he found the corpse of a fish-man combination connected by aquatic plants under the river, and after clearing these strange monsters, he returned to the town.

……

The location of the former site of the Tower of Time.

The fall of night did not calm down the battle, but became more and more intense, and more than a dozen huge balls of light hung in all directions of the battlefield, illuminating the area as if it were day.

Xia Duo notified Nia in advance when he returned, so he fell directly beside Niya in the formation, looking at her obviously tired face, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed:

"How's it going? Has the support of the council arrived? ”

"The fishmen are getting smarter and smarter, there are more and more injured soldiers, and the temple priests have been out of strength many times, if it weren't for Bishop Ambriel using the temple reserve holy power, it is estimated that it would not be able to support it now, as for the support of the council, let alone people, there is not even a single news!"

Nia's tone revealed a thick anxiety and worry, which made Xia Duo even more distressed, so he said, "You go and rest first, it's okay to have me here." ”

"No, I have to be here, it's the lord's duty!" Nia said flatly.

Nia's eyes were very determined, and Xia Duo only looked at her for a few seconds before she understood her insistence, so she said, "Then I'm here to accompany you!" ”

Then, he unleashed his flying sword and went into the river to kill the enemy, which was not as efficient as the carry-on space, but it was also much more efficient than ordinary soldiers.

After only a few moments, a burst of cheers erupted among the soldiers in front of him, and Nia was a little confused, but Xia Duo was very clear.

He cleaned up a lot of fishmen in the north, and set up "feeding points" every other section, and the gathering of wise fishmen was naturally an obstacle for the unwise fishmen.

In addition, he cleaned up the corpses of the fish-people in the north, and the Wolfburg River almost stopped flowing, and the fish-people went very slowly.

At least, during this time period, after Xia Duo cleaned up the latest batch with his flying sword, there were no more fishmen ashore, so the soldiers from the morning battle to the present broke out into fierce cheers.

The vast number of fishmen rushed forward to storm the defense line one after another, and even if they were sent to death, because of their huge numbers, these soldiers who had long been accustomed to killing felt deep despair.

If it weren't for the Temple Priests who had been soothing their hearts with the Light, perhaps they would have collapsed long ago.

Even now, they were cheering, but if they had extraordinary vision like Xia Duo, they would see this bright battlefield farther northβ€”

At night, there are still countless fish-people floating on the river.

It's just that it will take a little time for those fishmen to get here.

……

Soon, Ke Yann came to report the battle situation with an excited tone, "Lord Lord, Lord Xiaduo, we have won!" ”

Xia Duo only nodded slightly, and Niya returned the salute before saying:

"Commander Keyan, I already know the situation, this is indeed a victory, but you have also seen the situation during the day, the fishmen are far more than what we killed, there are many more, let the soldiers not let their guard down!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Co Yaen was ordered to leave, but before leaving, Xia Duo stopped him and reminded: "The fishmen further north will arrive in about an hour, so that the soldiers can rest for a while!" ”

"Yes!"

Ke Yane suddenly showed a grateful expression, and he didn't know if it was because he knew the specific time of the fish-man's arrival, or because Xia Duo cared about his soldiers.

However, Xia Duo didn't care about Keyan's attitude, he only cared about the state of the soldiers, although there was a rotation mechanism before, but the Savile Commander only had about 3,000 full-time soldiers.

And it is impossible for all of these more than 3,000 soldiers to be pulled here to kill fishmen, and all important places, such as ports, trade areas, mines, town gates, etc., need to be retained.

At the same time, the necessary territorial patrols also need to be retained.

The actual number of combatants involved in the battle may be only one or two thousand, and even if the battlefield is small, it can accommodate only two or three hundred combatants.

But from the morning to now, there has been almost no cessation of fighting, and it is a fierce battle!

Even if there is a rotation system, even if it is a full-time soldier, even if the fish-man is weak and almost ready to be slashed and killed, even if there is a temple priest to boost morale, restore strength, and heal injuries.

The real cost is also very huge.

These soldiers are just ordinary people, and they don't have any extraordinary strength such as fighting spirit and internal strength, so they just rely on a pair of flesh and blood and a set of standard equipment to fight.

To be able to persist until now, Xia Duo already feels incredible.

On Earth, cold weapon combat is the work of three-way drums, about 20 minutes. (One drum, then decline, three and exhaustion)

Of course, this is the most direct and intense battle, and if you count the time of low-intensity battles, it may be a little longer, but it is not likely to be anywhere.

It is extremely rare to fight from morning till night like this, and most of them are outnumbered, and the same group of people does not rotate many times.

Xia Duo was naturally worried that these soldiers would suddenly collapse, and now they could rest for an hour, not to mention anything else, just relaxing the originally tense heartstrings could greatly reduce the probability of collapse.

……

An hour later, the fish-men arrived as Shado had said, but instead of delicious human flesh, they were greeted by solid shields and cold spears!

In this way, the battle was fought on and off until dawn, and a message came from the Tower of Time that Archmage Oron of the Arcane Federation had applied for a temporary passkey.

Although Xia Duo is a rare level 4 member of the Arcane Federation, he does not have much friendship with the Arcane Federation, and he has not dealt with much of it.

Archmage Oron's true identity is not in the Arcane Federation, he is a follower of the princess, but he is arranged to serve in the Arcane Federation.

So, why did Archmage Oron want to teleport over? Is it for the Austrian Federation, or for the princess?

At this time, Xia Duo can receive the news, let alone Nia, the two looked at each other, and they both saw a trace of joy in each other's eyes, maybe it was Master Byron who mentioned that the council had supported before!

Of course, this is on behalf of the princess!
