Chapter 144: Tempting the Enemy
The outermost clearing on the outskirts of the Elven City, with a radius of nearly ten miles. An open space of this size, if it were all full of troops, would be able to put down 20,000 to 30,000 troops, and it would not be entirely clear to say that it was an open space, at least with a few small trees in the middle.
It can't be said that it is a small tree, this tree is about five or six meters high, and the thickness is about half a meter, and it is said that it is small because it can only be regarded as small compared to those giant trees that are tens of meters high and a few meters thick on the periphery of the clearing.
Because of the scarcity of trees, it is rare for a ray of sunlight to shine in, and the bright light illuminates the clearing, and there are some wildflowers blooming in the grass of the clearing, adding a poetic touch to the clearing.
The beautiful picture makes people intoxicated for a while, Lindy is hidden next to a giant tree on the periphery, looking at the scene in front of him, there is a trace of fascination in his expression, and he can't help but think of his red faces, and his eyes flashed with a trace of yearning and tenderness, if he can play with them in this beautiful meadow, it would be a good scene.
Looking back at the dimming group of giant trees behind him, Lindy's divine sense swept over, and he could sense the breath and life breath of the elves hiding in the giant trees, what a beautiful thing, but it was about to be destroyed by the dragon clan. Thinking about Xue'er, there was a hint of tenderness on his face, and a feeling of pity rose in his heart.
This cute elf girl is the first girl to feel pity from the bottom of her heart after he crossed over, and now that she has returned here, she must be very happy in her heart, but the attack of the dragon clan has made her have to bear her own responsibility, which makes Lindy feel a murderous opportunity in her heart. For Cher's sake, he will banish the dragons from this beautiful place no matter what.
With a cold light flashing in his eyes, he looked at the clearing, his powerful divine sense made him sense that someone was teleporting here, and although the fluctuation of magical energy was not large, he still let him catch it.
I saw that in the middle of the clearing, after a flash of bright light, a team of about fifty people appeared there, the lineup was similar to the dragon scouts that Lindy met before, but the number was reduced by nearly half, looking at their embarrassed, scarred and tattered appearance, Lindy knew that it must be caused by the previous magic trap.
The appearance of the scout corps made Lindy feel that the elves behind him were nervous, but then fell silent, these scouts were not their target, so they had to follow Lindy's request and stay put.
Lindy looked at these teleported scouts, his eyes flashed with coldness, and then he said to the Hornawai not far away:
"Send a few people to lead them to the magic trap of the Elven City, remember not to fall in love, just bring them in, don't let them get entangled, the magic array will naturally deal with them. ”
Hornawai responded to Lindy, and then used the elven secret method to give orders to several elves close to the elven city, who had been prepared for a long time.
As soon as the order was delivered, several elves moved, and a few rustling sounds came from there, and several elven figures flashed before the scouts who had just appeared, and then ran towards the depths of the elven city.
The sound made by the elves quickly attracted the scout corps, and the night elf magician who took the lead, looked at the elves who turned around and fled, and waved his big hand and said in a somewhat hurried voice:
"Quick...... The orcs go after them, stop them, don't let them send the news back to the elven city, the dwarven killing group goes around to check if there is anyone hiding, if you are sure that there is no ambush, report it quickly, the night elves and thieves check if there are any magic traps around, we can no longer afford to lose. Otherwise, the messenger will take our lives. Hurry up ......"
The Night Elf quickly conveyed the order, although his order was issued in an orderly manner, but he knew in his heart that it was impossible for the orcs to stop those elves, he could only hope that the orcs would not let him down, and that they could drag those elves and help after they could deal with it on their side.
The previous reconnaissance caused them heavy losses, and almost every clearing had magic traps, which also made them lose half of their personnel, but fortunately, the reconnaissance along the way did not find any elven ambushes, which also made him feel a lot more relaxed, and the dragon army's corps was slowly advancing with the clearing, and his reconnaissance mission was basically completed.
Thinking of this, he felt a little lucky in his heart, the previous second wave of scouts, never returned, not even a message, will not say that it must be the annihilation of the army, he is a little confused why, but, but no matter what, he can be regarded as a great achievement, but, as for the waiting soldiers in several other places, will they be as lucky as him, he can only pray for those guys in his heart.
However, what made him depressed was that the magic traps in every clearing were very secret and clever, even the thieves they brought could not detect them, except for the traps they touched, the rest of the traps, they did not detect any of them, which also made the dragon alliance suffer heavy losses, and he really didn't know if the dragon envoy would find him to settle the account.
This also made him very uneasy in his heart, the open space here is only about the right to come from the elven city, in his opinion, it is impossible that there will be no ambush here, let alone no magic traps, but the previous open space did not encounter an ambush, and the trap is not easy to detect, so he lost his judgment. Moreover, the dragon clan had no other way to attack the Elven Forest except for the open space, so he could only report his luck and want to get by.
He only hoped that this place was not valued by the elves, at most there were only a few elves who were scouting here, as long as these elves were caught and destroyed, it would be over, and with such a heart, their reconnaissance movements were also faster.
There were originally five thieves accompanying them, but now there are only two left, these thieves are not professional thieves, but they are only temporarily trained in the dwarf killing corps, it is no wonder that they can't find clever traps, because dragons and humans are not friendly, so even if they spend a lot of money, they can't ask thieves to help, and they can only use dwarves who are good at killing to make up the number.
Most of the dwarves drew their thin swords and searched the surrounding jungle, the night elves and the remaining two dwarven thieves, using magic sensing to cooperate with each other, began to search for magic traps in the clearing, they had to be fast, those elves who had just escaped, they had to catch, without their magic sense, it was impossible for orcs to catch those fleeing elves.
The search didn't take long, maybe it was a fluke, and he was concerned about the fleeing elves, so the search was like dealing with something. However, to the surprise of the Night Elves, in this clearing, they did not find a magic trap, even if the trap happened by mistake, which made him feel a little bad in his heart, but he couldn't say what it was.
Time was pressing, and he didn't have to think about it, he had to chase down the fleeing elves, and he couldn't let them send the news back to the elven city, and with a quick summon, the night elves chased after the elves with the scouts who had not gained the slightest.
Looking at the scouts in the distance, a strange smile hung on the corner of Lindy's mouth, everything was going on under his expectations, after these scouts chased them, they would be greeted by the magic traps laid by the elves for tens of thousands of years, with their little people, they were afraid that as soon as they entered the trap, they would be swallowed by these traps and there would be no scum left.
Next, he had to deal with the arrival of the dragon coalition, and he believed that the scouts would take the opportunity to send a message to the coalition forces in the rear after chasing them out. Because, the appearance of the elves will give them a sense of urgency, which is also a layout deliberately set by Lindy, regardless of whether they can catch up with those fleeing elves or not.
The scout corps also wants to send the news back, the dragon clan is attacking the Elven Forest, there is no other way except this time, even if you know that there is a trap, you have to break here, everything has developed according to Lindy's plan. As for the other open spaces, I'm afraid it's similar to the situation here.
Sure enough, not long after the chase, the Night Elves let the messenger brought by their mages cast spells, and sent the news of the absence of ambushes back to the Dragon Coalition waiting in the rear, regardless of whether there were ambushes here, and they accelerated the pursuit of the elves, such a scene was also staged in several other open spaces, and the real battle began at this time, and the decisive battle between the dragons and the elves would also kick off.
