In the early morning, Rosen, Shabolai, and 20 heavily armed Silver Moon Ranger rushed to Moonlight Town before the army.

The group was all on horseback.

Lawson was not a good horseman, but fortunately Shabolai picked him a horse with the gentlest temper, and rode all the way down, although he was a little tired, but he did not hold back the team.

And this operation, the preparation was very thorough, and Lawson alone was given two bottles of medium-potent potions, as well as three rune stones that stored medium-level spells.

When needed, as long as you pinch the rune stone hard, you can directly trigger the spell in it.

On the way, Shabolai, who was wearing a dark silver chain mail and a silver-gray emblem belt, carefully introduced the battle plan to Lawson.

"The latest information from the front line that Baron Filin has defected, but the current situation in Moonlight Town is unknown."

"Our initial task is to investigate the specific situation around Yuehui Town and prepare for the capture of the town by the army."

Lawson nodded in understanding.

Because he is on a combat mission, he is also fully armed, wearing a thick leather hat and thick leather armor with nails, and his defense is good, but it will not affect his physical flexibility and spell casting too much.

Turning his head to look at the Silver Moon Ranger following behind him, he saw that all of them had a fierce aura.

Such a warrior, if loyal, is a sharp blade, and if betrayed, it is a deadly knife to the heart.

He asked softly, "Uncle, in the past three days, have you figured out the situation of everyone?" ”

I'm afraid there's a hidden blade of Vobos inside.

Xia Bolai nodded slightly: "It's all clear, they are all neutrals." They don't care who is the Count of Omixia, they are only loyal to the current Count of Omixia. ”

"That's good."

Lawson was a little relieved, but still kept a basic wary of these Silver Moon Rangers, after all, trust doesn't happen overnight.

And when he observed the Silvermoon Ranger, these elite men were also observing Lawson.

Obviously, some people thought that this military mage was too young.

After walking for about an hour, a slightly playful voice came from behind.

"General, why don't you introduce this little friend to us?"

As soon as Xia Bolai heard it, he knew that this was the veteran Youzi who didn't trust Rosen's ability in his heart and came to find fault.

Of course, he won't blame the other party, because on the battlefield, no one wants his comrade-in-arms to be a rookie.

He laughed out loud and turned to look at Rosen, "Man, open the eyes of these eyeless guys." ”

Rosen smiled slightly, and with a thought, he threw a missile directly at a piece of sandstone the size of a ploughing ox on the side of the road.

Based on his dexterous spellcasting skills, he infused the missile with 10% of mana.

I saw a fist-sized spot of incandescent light flash through the air at a speed that was almost indistinguishable to the naked eye, and accurately hit the crack in the rock 70 meters away

'Bang! Boom~'

There was an explosion, rubble and smoke everywhere.

When the smoke cleared, I saw that the big stone had broken into countless pieces, and it was directly disintegrated!

'Oh~~~'

The Silver Moon Ranger all subconsciously let out a low cry, and looked at Rosen with a lot of contempt in his eyes.

Xia Bolai was also a little surprised: "Lawson, your spells have improved again." ”

Rosen smiled slightly, "Thanks to Lady Thrandis's guidance." ”

"Oh~ no wonder."

Shapole suddenly realized that in his eyes, Thrandis was a genius of magic, not inferior to his aunt when he was young.

Seeing that the faces of his subordinates behind him were dazed, knowing that these men in the army had never heard of this name, he explained.

"This Lady Thrandis is Rosen's mentor, a mid-level twelve-star official mage, and a rare magic genius."

Everyone was stunned.

A ranger captain at the front, named Hamill, was also the fighter who had just spoken out in question.

He smiled and said, "Since there is such a famous teacher, then Master Lawson's spells must be powerful, but he is still a little younger, I'm afraid his mana will be a little insufficient, right?" ”

This also speaks of the anxieties of the people.

On the battlefield, mana is even more important than spells, after all, a mage who runs out of mana is about the same as waste.

Shabolai laughed: "Hamill, I know your scruples, but don't worry. I once teamed up with Lawson to defeat the Beastmaster. His mana is definitely enough. ”

Hamill was not convinced: "General, you are a high-ranking samurai, no matter who you join forces with, you can defeat the Giant Bear Beastmaster, right?" ”

The other Ranger captain is named Watson.

He also followed: "Yes, yes." Master Lawson, it's okay if your mana is weaker, you can give us all the bottom line, so that everyone can know what to expect. After all, we are comrades-in-arms who want to fight side by side. ”

That's right.

Rosen carefully felt the strength of the mana in his body and said, "I can still put at least 18 of such powerful missiles just now." ”

In fact, if you add the Star Wisdom Bracelet and Emergency Meditation, you can release a full 25 missiles in a row.

But it was enough to surprise everyone.

Watson was shocked, obviously not believing: "Oh~ At your age, it is quite rare to be able to achieve such mana." ”

Rosen smiled faintly: "Captain don't be surprised. For mages, mana is not everything. ”

"I'm young, and I still have a lot of deficiencies in my cultivation in magic, and if there are gaps in the battle, I hope you can be more tolerant."

Watson nodded again and again, and said with a dry smile: "It's easy to say~ It's easy to say!" ”

After that, the Silver Moon Ranger didn't look for Lawson's stubble anymore, but Lawson could feel that he couldn't convince these proud warriors with his lips alone, and he had to rely on actual combat.

Seeing that the fighters had initially accepted Lawson, Shabol continued to introduce the tactics that followed.

Although he is not very reliable in peacetime, he has received very professional military training, and he still knows a lot about fighting, and he is also a high-level samurai, so every soldier has no objection to the arrangement.

After another half a day, a group of people came to the vicinity of Moonlight Town.

After a brief trimming, Shabolai took out the map and began to assign tasks.

"Hamill, you take four people around town to investigate."

"Watson, you take the whole team to the labyrinth forest north of the town to check carefully, and make sure that there are no ice dwarf ambushes in the forest!"

"For the rest, follow me to the high ground over there and wait, and if there is a special situation, immediately light the red smoke to warn."

"Yes, General!"

The two Ranger captains immediately split into two ways and ran out.

Shabol turned to Rosen and said, "Let's go, let's go to the high ground." ”

There were seven of them in their group, and they ran all the way to the top of the low hill near the town, looking down on the town of Moonlight from a high vantage point.

In this world, glass technology is already very mature, and naturally there are telescopes.

Once at the top of the slope, Shabolai took out his monoculars and carefully observed the situation in the town.

It's about one o'clock in the middle of the day, the sun is shining, and even the snow in the darkest corners has melted away, and in such a good day, the townspeople will certainly not be at home.

But the reality is that there is not even a single figure in the town.

Whether it is the castle in the town, or the surrounding streets, even the most lively central square, there is not even a dog in the desert.

Shabolai couldn't help but mutter: "Strange, how can there be no one?" There was no one to be seen in the castle. ”

Even if you become a beast, you have to eat, drink, and Lazar, and you should be able to see traces of life, right?

During this time, Rosen was also observing, and he borrowed the close-out view function of the adventure log to look at the town carefully, and saw it more clearly than a telescope.

"Uncle, I'm afraid that since yesterday, or even earlier, there has been no activity in the town."

Xia Bolai was stunned: "How do you know?" ”

The Silver Moon Ranger on the side also turned their heads and looked at him curiously.

Lawson pointed to the open-air tavern in the center of town.

"Uncle, if you look at the tavern fireplace, you can see hoarfrost in the dark corner. And if there is a fire in the fireplace, the hoarfrost will not be able to condense under the flame. ”

Shabolai nodded repeatedly: "That's right." Taverns are usually very lively, but when there are people, the fireplace will certainly not go out, and the walls of the hearth will naturally not frost. ”

A ranger asked, "Is it true that the whole town has gone to the mountains?" ”

It's also quite possible.

Rosen shook his head: "This will have to be observed up close." When Captain Hamill returns, he should be able to give us the answer. ”

Everyone waited patiently.

After about half an hour, a beast-like howl suddenly came from the town, and when it rang out, it echoed everywhere, like a wolf pack howling in unison.

Immediately after, everyone saw a lot of strange figures rushing out of the town's wooden houses.

Why do you say it's weird?

Because he looked like a human being, and he was wearing human clothes, but like a wild beast, he ran on all fours, and his speed was amazing.

It can be seen that these strange creatures are all rushing towards the southwest side of the town, and just as everyone at the top of the slope is unknown, there is a 'bang' sound from the southwest corner, followed by a red smoke exploding in the air.

It's an agreed red danger signal!

Shabolé was shocked: "What's going on?!" ”

Rosen had already reacted.

"Uncle, it's an ambush!"

At the critical moment, Xia Bolai felt his brain buzzing, and he was a little blindsided for a while.

Growing so big, although there were countless drills, it was the first time he participated in a real war.

Seeing that he was stunned for two seconds without speaking, and during this time, there were more than 300 beasts in the town.

Rosen immediately said: "Uncle, the soldiers are divided into two ways, one team will answer Captain Hamiah, and the other team will return to the rear to report the news!"

In fact, the most important thing to do was to give up Captain Hamia and retreat immediately, but he knew that Shapole would never take this advice.

Xia Bolai was shocked in his heart, and finally came back to his senses.

He immediately clicked on the two Silver Moon Ranger beside him: "You! You! Go back and report to General Vobos at once! ”

"Use up all the runestones, beware of roadside sneak attacks, be fast! Let's just say that the townspeople of Moonlight have all become beasts, and they know how to ambush, and they still have some brains. ”

'Bang! ’

He drew his sword and rushed in the direction of the red smoke.

"Others, come with me to pick up Captain Hamill!"
