"Our opponent this time will be the Knox Fellowship. "They are now part of the Mage's Federation, made up of many powerful spellcasters. Their allies include possessed wraiths, which you've seen in your time at the Black Blood Keep, and possibly powerful Death Knights. ”

"Death Knight?" Kerry's eyebrows immediately raised, and he slammed his fist on the table, and a crack bursting from the table with a chilling air. "The kind of skeleton that rode the red dragon and burned my tribe?"

"That's right. "I came across something similar in the Rift Valley at the edge of the realm, and later discovered the Knox Guild and the Death Knight connection in the Red Magic Tower at Fort Hub. Kerry, the enemy is very strong and must not be taken lightly. ”

Afterwards, Siegel tells the giant about his fight with the Death Knight. That eerie magical rune made his armor indestructible, and so far only wood, some spells, and stardust could deal damage.

However, if there is an opportunity to form a formation, launch a continuous attack with archers, or strike with catapults, I believe that the armor of the Death Knight will not be able to withstand it. But the Knox Commons are capable of driving wraiths, creatures that are especially well-suited to the chaos of the battlefield, and the more numerous, the better for them. If you want to restrain the opponent's possession, you need enough magic users. As long as you are prepared, whether it is a priest who believes in the gods, a priest who worships the three spirits, or a druid who worships nature, it can have a restraining effect on the spirits.

At this time, the mages of the Knox Guild will take action and use their powerful elemental magic abilities to suppress the opponent's elite spellcasters. So in terms of battlefield structure. Knox would be more reasonable. The power that can be used is even stronger. I couldn't see their shortcomings for a while.

"The clouds of war loom over us, but they are not yet imminent for the North. Siegel said to Kerry, "I guess the Knox Commons will deal with the elves first, or take the Mage Federation into their hands first. If they do these two things, then all the souls who worship freedom will be enslaved, except for the dwarves who possess the top of Mora. ”

Kerry stood up, clenched his fists, and cursed, "Fuck it! a bunch of pretending to be ghosts, I'll make them pay!" Don't be afraid, our Jackdaw tribe will definitely fight this evil bastard to the end!"

"Fuck it's true, but you can't die for nothing. Siegel also stood up, patted the giant on the shoulder, and said to him, "I've also been working on how to counteract the enemy's advantage. If we can safely guard against the spirits, then we can take advantage of our numbers. Even mages can only flee when faced with thousands of troops, unable to fight back and win. It is believed that none of the races in the New World would want to be ruled by an organization like the Knox Commons. ”

"Why don't you mess with him while he's not looking?" Kerry clenched his fist, and ice kept coming out of the back of his hand. Then it was crumpled into pieces. He pointed to the east and said to Siegel, "You only need to ride a horse for fifteen days to reach Waterdeep." Let's catch a few Knox mages. Beat it up and bring it back. When the time comes. You can do whatever you want!"

The elf chuckled, and Siegel laughed too. "Good brother, there will be such an opportunity, but not now. Now we must make all preparations, accumulate strength as much as possible, and wait for the day when the situation on the continent will change abruptly. Give advice to your friends and allies you can earn. But if the Knox Commons don't make a move, we really can't take the initiative to attack. ”

"Why?" Kerry asked, "You can't beat him up if you don't like him?"

"Unless you sneak up on him, don't let anyone know. "It's hard, but as a mage, it's not something you can't do. But you think, sneaking around has no sense of accomplishment, instead of spending that time, it is better to sharpen our knives and hit them in the stomach a few times when the time comes!"

"Hehe, you're right. Kerry pinched his chin and imagined the blade churning in the belly of his enemy. "As long as I can avenge the murder of my father, we will do whatever you say!"

"I'm going to the north in search of an ally, a special user of divine power. I had a hunch that everything would go a lot better with his help. Besides, I'm going to study your land, it's amazing how you can suppress the effects of magic. ”

"Here?" Kerry was surprised, "What do you mean by magic suppression? Do you mean that all magic cannot be used? Our priests here never mention it, they can still heal people normally, and all prayers are not affected. ”

"Oh?"

Kerry the Giant takes Siegel with him to the hills, where he asks for the tribe's sacrifice in the Triangle Tower. Seeing the situation, the mage was as he said, the blessing from the three spirits was not affected in any way, and he could still operate in this area, and Siegel continued to experiment with the mage's spells and dwarven runes, and also tried to use the spells of the blood magic and the Knox Common, and found that as long as the spell effect left itself, it could not work normally.

"It's a big strategic advantage. "It's a land where Knox's bald heads won't be able to move an inch," Siegel said. ”

"Aha! I'll just say it's the land of the Three Spirits! You've found a good place for us. Kerry stood on top of the hill and clenched his fists in front of him: "The tribes of the steppe will unite in this holy place and form a force that no one in the north can ignore." We will drive out all evil so that good people can live happily ever after. ”

"That's what I want, too!" Siegel said, "but don't forget, the Knox Guild is still very strong, and their threat is getting closer. Kerry, in addition to preparing for war, you also have to leave a way back for your own people. What will you do if another dragon strikes?"

Kerry smiled and said to Siegel, "I've thought of that. At our feet, there are continuous tunnels and fire shelters, as well as passages where women and children can be transferred. Fighting is our business, and women and children can no longer be harmed. ”

"I'm relieved that you're prepared like this. Siegel said, "Originally, I wanted to help you dig the passage, but now it seems that most of the power of magic has been suppressed. I am an incompetent fighter in addition to that. It doesn't help much. I'll stay with you for ten days. Measure the extent of the Prairie Sanctuary, do a few related spell experiments, and wait for my squire by the way. Poor Mohr was sent back to the city by me, and has not yet arrived. ”

"You don't have to worry about this, I will get the brethren to move and send cavalry to the steppe to help you find an acolyte. Kerry said, "Come, good brother, Venerable Elf Lady." Let's seize the opportunity and enjoy the unique food of the Jackdaw tribe first!"

They walked back to the longhouse, where the food had been reprepared and the wine had been served, waiting for the guests to enjoy. Despite the dangers of the Knox Guild, they were able to take a break and enjoy the warmth of their friends at this moment.

Siegel eats quickly, Kerry is not very hungry after eating, and the abundance of meat is clearly not to the elf's appetite. The servants withdrew their meals, leaving only fine wine and dried fruit. Giant Kerry was tempted to entertain the elves with fruit. But on the grasslands, fruit is a rarity. Not in his menu, only the Black Wolf Princess saved some.

Messira came out of the back room with a plate of apples and pomegranates. Share with the elves. The little prince of the Jackdaw tribe is sleeping soundly now, so his mother can hear the most accurate news with her own ears.

"When do you think the Knox gang will show their true colors?" asked the Messira, "Is there a way to make the Mage Guild know their true colors?"

"I've thought about that too. Siegel had taken out his pipe, and then thought of the kid in the back room, so he smiled awkwardly and put the pipe away. This move undoubtedly increased the goodwill of the child's mother, and at least won Siegel a share of the apple.

"From the current point of view, it is difficult to be moved by the Mage Federation. Siegel continued: "I don't have any actual evidence in my hands, everything is what I have seen and speculated. It is difficult to say that the lion king Alexander and the collector William were moved. Without the support of the two of them, it would be impossible to take down Archmage Casper at this stage. ”

"But I'll write a letter to them to be vigilant and prevent enemies from blending within. Siegel concluded, "I've been thinking about how to phrase it in case this letter falls into the hands of the Knox Guild and poses a threat to the Heim Collar." ”

The Messira nodded, she had a more sensitive political mind than the giant Kerry, and quickly drew conclusions from the conversations of several people. She said to Siegel, "Mr. Mage, if the Knox Commons start their evil plans, what do we need to do with the Jackdaw Tribe?"

"Of course it's a fight against evil!" the giant patted his thigh and said with a smile, "I won't miss the battle to help my brother." ”

Miscella took her husband's hand, rested her head lightly on his shoulder, and said with a smile, "My king, let Mr. Mage speak." ”

"Let's put it this way," Siegel said, "I hope that the Jackdaw Tribe will keep a low profile, hold the grassland, and preserve its vitality." If the caster's battle line is divided, you can quickly travel to Waterdeep or to the Elven Forest, depending on the situation. No matter where you go, you will be the one who decides the outcome of the game. ”

"Indeed, this is what the cavalry of the Jackdaw Tribe is best suited to do. The Black Wolf Princess smiled and said to Siegel, "We have a rare opponent on the grassland, but only when we face other tribes. With twenty mages like you, no matter how strong the fighting spirit of the horses and knights is, it will make no difference. ”

Giant Kerry frowned, and then he figured out what was going on. He shook his shoulders and shook Messira's head away, then frowned and suppressed his anger and said, "You want me to hide behind my brother like a coward and take advantage of me when everything is almost over?!

Messira shook her head, still looking at Kerry with tenderness and adoration.

"Your wife is right," said Siegel, "and what the Messiah said is what I thought." It's true that the Raven tribe has begun to rise again, but compared to the Elven Forest, the Mage Federation, and Mora's Peak, this is just a child who has just learned to walk, how can it be possible to face a strong man armed to the teeth?"

"Are you just going to let me watch here and wait for you to decide the winner?" Kerry crushed the horn cup and slammed it on the ground, "Never!"

"You don't want to sit idly by. "I came out of Fort Hub with a plan in my head and needed your help. In order to fight the Death Knights and Wraiths, and ultimately defeat the Knox Guild, we need to build an army that is not inferior to them. In this plan, the first thing I thought of was you, so I came all the way to the grassland to find you. ”

"Oh, what's so important?" said Kerry, intrigued.

"Against two enemies that I can't fight. The mage smiled and said, "I need you to be at your best, both physically and mentally. I also need you to hold the Ice Spear, and the next battle will not be child's play. (To be continued......)
