Nowruwe and Marca waited nervously on a hill more than fifty kilometers away from Kane's territory, after discussion, they finally did not dare to invade Kane's territory openly, and the army dispatched was mainly only masked cavalry, cavalry had an absolute advantage over the upper infantry soldiers, in terms of numbers, the number of Kane's army had been roughly touched by them.

Against more than a hundred foot soldiers, they dispatched 300 cavalry and 100 infantry soldiers. Coupled with the advantage of numbers, Nowruvi has an absolute advantage.

Marca was a little impatient in the cold wind, he wanted to pull the two hundred cavalry and more than a hundred mercenaries behind him to level Kane's territory several times, in fact, as early as the beginning, he suggested not to hide his strength, and even the superfluous preparations of masked attack were not necessary, and it was the most convenient way to directly pull all the troops and take Kane out of the pot.

Nowuway commented that he was a reckless man, even if he won the battle, there were too many criticisms left for others, and if he didn't handle it well, it would be easy to push himself into a place of no return.

Marca was helpless, and said sullenly that Nowruwe's timid approach is like a timid girl, who will not lead troops to fight at all, how can there be a general.

Noruvi didn't bother to argue with a reckless man like him, it was always right to be careful, and Noruvi always did.

The four barons, who had been standing on a high place waiting for the battle report for a long time, finally saw the black dot in the distance approaching them, and when the black dot approached, they could tell from their masked faces that this group of people was their own subordinates. Marca was the first to rush over and ask how the battle was going, and why the number of people who had returned was so small, only a third of what they had before departure.

The leader who had escaped was lucky enough to bow his head in shame and whispered, "I... We, defeated. ”

Marca was stunned for a moment, then angrily pulled the general's hair and pulled him to his eyes, glaring angrily: "You group of wastes have so many advantages, you can't even beat a hundred recruits!" After that, before the general could defend himself, Maka kicked him with anger, and he flew out upside down.

Nowruway pressed Maka, who was overwhelmed by anger, "It's not too late to ask what the situation is, even if you kill him now, you won't be able to change the outcome." ”

Naxi and the other baron also advised Maca to calm down. But the hot-tempered Maca could not be appeased by them in a few words, and he immediately pointed the finger at Nowruwe, who had always played the role of a military advisor.

"Calm down? Hundreds of cavalry and a hundred infantry soldiers couldn't defeat that hundred! How do you calm me down! If I had sent all my troops in the first place, it would have been like this! Half of these 300 cavalry are my men! He yelled at Nowruway and the others, and then he asked Nowruway as if he had discovered something, "It won't be because I am at the forefront this time, you deliberately take this opportunity to consume my military strength!" ”

Hearing Maka's words, Noruvi was also furious in his heart, but he was more rational and did not choose to quarrel with Maka's reckless man at such a time, he dropped a sentence: "Whatever you think." Then I went and asked the people who had fled what was going on in today's battle.

The survivor who escaped recounted the general story of the battle.

Nowruway's brow tightened when he heard of the mage and the elemental monster, and the fear in his heart overpowered the anger.

Ordinary nobles, few lords below the earl can afford to raise a mage, and even if there is, it is not too strong or a healing mage, and a powerful combat elemental mage has almost never been seen in the viscount, baron and other territories. Noruway fears that Kane has mage's protection because of Hamer's support, and he is determined not to take any more risks and asks Maka to listen to him and not touch Kane's territory again for a short time.

Marca didn't listen to him anymore, his anger made him lose his mind, and his courage skyrocketed, and he pointed at Nowruvi's nose and cursed, eager to slap him in the face.

"You three cowards! If you don't dare to go, I'll go! What about Hammer, if they really don't have the shame to intervene in the war between the two barons, then come! Lao Tzu will not swallow this breath! Nowruvi pushed Naxi away, mounted his horse, and returned to his territory with the rest of his army.

Nowuway couldn't persuade this reckless man, so he simply asked for his own death, and everyone tacitly chose to shut up and wait for Maka's action.

After Kane saw the power of Nevis's elemental circle, he asked Nevis to arrange another one to strengthen the protection of the territory. Nefrith agreed, he had only planned to set up one before he came here, and the water elemental circle was only one of them, and he had also prepared an earth-based rock circle.

Kane continued to follow him to find a suitable place to set up, this time they were not too far away from the vein, Kane could take care of the situation on this side of the vein and provide protection for Nelus at the same time.

The wounded miners were sent for treatment, and the corpses in the area were burned to ashes by Neroth with fire magic and buried under the roots of the trees. Despite the foreign invasion, Kane has no time to investigate the truth, and he chooses to strengthen himself first and be able to deal with the next unknown and dangerous raid.

When Nelus put the six-sided crystals of earth and rock into the center of magic, the mountains shook, the earth and rocks shook, and the cold chickens ran out of their warm caves, as if fleeing, and when the shaking passed, the animals ran back to their nests and hid.

Neriches happily watched the results of his efforts, and his heart was filled with joy.

Kane thanked him by inviting Nehris to stay and play for a few more days, and Nevis readily agreed. At night, the mine is still brightly lit and workers are working around the clock, and the sound of iron picks chiseling ore from the mine and the sound of wood embedded in the mine cavern are accompanied by the shouts of workers working together.

Nehris used low-level recovery magic to help workers regain their strength and vitality, and even if Nerich's current strength reaches the great magic event, he can only cast low-level recovery magic, because this kind of magic is too advanced, and generally even a great magician like Master Yorick, who is not majoring in recovery magic, can only cast a level higher than Nerous's magic.

This is enough to prove Nerich's genius in the field of magic. According to the estimation of the chief engineer of Nanbo, if they continue to work at this rate, they will be able to completely mine the iron ore in just over half a month at the earliest, as long as it is mined, the ore merchant who has contacted Kani in advance will send someone to buy it, and then Rand will have an extra income, and there will be a qualitative leap in the degree of development.

Evening is a good time for nocturnal animals to hang out and forage for food, and it is also a good opportunity for hunters like Kane to hunt. Kane took Neros to tour the surrounding territories while hunting to kill time. Neroth used magic to compete with Kane to see who could hunt more prey in one night, and Kane, who had super high hunting skills, was also defeated by Neriches' near-cheating magic.

The fireball technique drove the winter wolf to one place, and the golden sword rain fell from the sky, and a small group of winter wolves were easily solved by the magic sword rain. Kane not only had to be careful of the winter wolf's attacks on horseback, but also had to concentrate on aiming at his prey, and with two intentions, Kane ended up hunting only half as good as Neroth.

In the early morning, in the gray environment, the shadows of the dead trees were imprinted on the snow like ghost claws, and the corpses of six or seven winter wolves were dragged behind the horses, and several long-tailed birds hung from the horses' waists. Kane's booty was a proud feat for half the hunters, but when he saw a man-tall prey piled up behind Nero, he realized that even a skilled hunter would fail miserably under the cheating methods of a magician.

"Well, my magic skills are better. I've only been hunting for half a night, and I didn't expect to have so much to gain, and your territory is really rich in products. "Neroth looked energetic at this time, not at all like a magician who had been hunting for a night.

"Okay, okay, the magician is really good at hunting, and I won't compare this kind of meaningless competition with you in the future, it's like cheating." Kane yawned.

They brought the game back to the mines, and to everyone's astonishment, Kane had the slaughtering or experience of slaughtering the game broken down the game, and the whole fur could be sold to the leather merchants, the meat was used to cook and feed the workers, and the hard bones were kept to dry for crafts or farm tools.

Kane took a bowl of hot broth from Arya, the aroma of which was appetizing, and the tender poultry meat was a gift from nature. Kane took a sip and felt like he had recovered a lot.

The crowd around the campfire drank the steaming food to expel the invading cold. While everyone was busy finishing their food and preparing to continue their fight against the cold wind, they didn't know that Rand was resisting a group of uninvited guests.

After a night of preparation, Maka began to send troops against Kane's Rand, and he mobilized all the elites in his territory, leaving only a few dozen knights in the territory to manage the order. He divided his army into two routes, with a hundred infantry attacking the Rand Town headquarters, and the other army following him to the mines to fight Kane to the death.

The infantry soldiers who attacked the Rand headquarters were the first to arrive, and as soon as they arrived in the Rand, they immediately rushed in to burn and loot, and the town's shops and taverns were looted, and the residents died tragically under their blades.

Knight Ian was stationed there, and he quickly gathered the army that remained behind, and some of the stronger and more powerful inhabitants were improvised into the ranks. He commanded these militiamen to hold back the aggressors, set traps on the fighters in the rear line, and led them into narrow alleys. There were guards at the exits on both sides, and the soldiers did not give them a chance to escape. On the upper floors of the buildings on both sides, someone stood on the roof and poured fuel oil under the alley.

The invaders trapped in the narrow alley were suddenly in a mess, they desperately tried to squeeze out, but the two ends had been sealed by stone swords, and the more they squeezed out, the more chaotic the situation became, and before the fire could be fired, several people died in the alley due to the stampede.

The desperation and shouts did not arouse the sympathy of the Rand people, and as a torch fell, the flames burst into flames, and the wails immediately spread throughout the Rand, and after a while, the smell of the alley had changed from the initial aroma of roast meat to an unpleasant burnt smell.

When the fire was extinguished, Ian covered his nose and sent someone to clean up the miserable alley, clean up all these things inside, don't affect Rand's face, and all the invaders who escaped will be executed, they don't have prisoners here, at least there are no captives in this situation now, Rand doesn't have extra money to support this kind of guy.
