Chapter 10, the third skill of the Warlord's talent
"The side rewards are so generous!"
"The base rewards are an orange rare set and equipment magic pattern."
"I'm afraid the harvest in this secret realm will be very high."
Fang Yuan thought secretly in his heart.
Then he looked at Christian.
"Send scouts."
"Determine where we are at the moment."
"Yes."
Then Fang Yuan took advantage of this time.
Brought the heroes together.
"Now we have two tasks on hand."
"One is the main line, to investigate the truth of the Black Mist Stone Forest."
"Another branch."
"Go and destroy the Ogre Monarch in the Ogre Forest."
"Judging by the mission, we should still be in the North."
"The Ogre Monarch is in the Ogre Forest."
"There are no clues related to the main quest for the time being."
"So I mean head to the Ogre Forest."
"Complete the side quest first."
"At the same time, send the Scout Corps to disperse and collect clues."
"What do you think?"
After Fang Yuan finished speaking, he looked at several heroes beside him.
"Your Excellency."
"I agree with this plan."
"But I think we should divide the army into two ways."
"The legion in charge of finding clues is all the way."
"Go to the Ogre Forest and annihilate the Ogre Monarch."
"By doing so, we can get things done faster."
Fiona offered her opinion.
"I agree."
"Your Excellency."
"I'm asking to go and find clues."
Vannas said, raising his hand.
She's a hero who excels at scouting.
Go to find clues and play to her strengths.
Fang Yuan was about to nod.
At this time.
Christian on the side said.
"I agree."
"I, Fiona, Loyes, and Your Excellency the Lord have gone to exterminate the Ogre Monarch."
"Qingfeng, Vanas, you take some of the Windranger Hunters to look for clues."
"How's this arrangement?"
"Agreed."
Fang Yuan agreed without thinking.
And at this very moment.
The cavalry who went out to scout brought back the news.
"Your Excellency."
"This is where we are now."
Fang Yuan took the map and looked at it.
"This location."
"Christian."
"It seems to be near the barony in the North."
Christian looked at it, his brow narrowed slightly.
"It's kind of like, and it's kind of not like it."
"Your Excellency."
"Our territory is different from before, the rotting swamps to the west are gone."
"That's because of the previous Dimensional Spear Forbidden Spell."
"And on this map, there are no rotten swamps either."
"It shouldn't be."
Fang Yuan nodded.
"The names of these maps."
"Sweetwater Collar."
"Bird Pioneer Collar."
"Harvest Town."
"Howling Forest."
"It's all different from the name of the North where we're in."
"What's more, it doesn't seem to have a northern defense line here."
The name that appears on the map.
There was a big gap with what Fang Yuan knew.
"Your Excellency."
"There's only one way to do that."
"That's where we are, probably in the early days."
"It was just before Gondor was built, or even before it was built."
"And the map of Gondor as we know it."
"It's the name of Gondor that has already been established."
Christian's guess is reasonable.
"If you go along this line."
"Sweetwater Collar."
"Geographically, it should be a later rotten swamp."
"Tut-tut, this name has changed a bit bit."
"Bird Pioneer Collar."
"This place is bigger than the later baronies."
"Its topography covers what would later be the barony."
"Or rather, this Bird Territory is the predecessor of the Barony."
"And then there's Harvest Town."
"The place is in the Plains of Harvest."
"Christian."
"This is the location of the Harvest City in the future."
Christian nodded.
"It's smaller than Harvest City."
"But it should be pretty much the same."
"The Last Howl Forest."
"It's part of the Dark Forest."
"And it's close to the Sweetwater Collar to the west."
"Your Excellency."
"This is the place that was occupied by the Advent lord before."
Fang Yuan nodded.
"Not bad."
"I vaguely remember that when dealing with the Adventists, I looked up information about their territory."
"When this territory was first occupied, it was occupied by a group of pioneer lords."
"It seems to be the early days of Gondor's founding."
"Christian."
"We've probably come to a time when Gondor was just founded."
This conclusion was agreed by Christian.
"Not bad."
"You can see that by the size of the Ogre Forest."
"Later, this is the Ogre Hill."
"It's less than half the size it is now."
"It must have been through the constant wars of the pioneer lords of Gondor Territory."
"It turned this ogre forest into an ogre hill."
"Your Excellency, this task you are doing now."
"There is a high probability that it is the task of developing territory in the early stage."
Fang Yuan nodded.
"At this point in time, it should be the time of the First Race War."
"Gondor is weak."
"Christian."
"Shall we directly send troops to push all the northern forces flat."
"After catching the lords among them, slowly interrogate the information about the Black Mist Stone Forest."
"This~"
Christian hesitated for a moment.
"Your Excellency, the period of the First Race War is tens of thousands of years away from the era of the Glory Era."
"A lot of history at this time is lost."
"We don't know how strong the parties are in the war."
"You know, the period of the First Race War is a transition from the age of subgods."
"But in fact, between the last war of the subgods and the first race war, there were thousands of years of time."
"No one knows how many strong people of each race have accumulated."
"Especially a country like Gondor, which was evacuated from Middle-earth."
"They have a whole heritage."
"It's not that you can't cultivate demigod-level professionals."
"So Your Excellency."
"I think it's better to be cautious."
"Send a scout corps to get information about the surroundings first."
"After confirming their strength, it's not too late to make a flat push."
Compared to Fang Yuan's impatience.
Christian looked more poised.
"Makes sense."
"Then it's still according to the previous plan."
"Vanas, Qingfeng will go to investigate first."
"The rest go to the Ogre Forest and exterminate the Ogre Monarch."
"Complete the side quest."
"Without further ado."
"Divide your troops and set out at once."
"Quickly complete the task while ensuring safety."
"Yes!"
"Kill!"
"Roar~"
"For the glory of ogres."
Shouts of killing were heard throughout the forest.
Now.
A checkpoint outside the Ogre Forest.
Hundreds of ogres surrounded the place.
On top of the checkpoint.
More than thirty iron-clad soldiers fought back with arrows.
The ogre, with his shield on his back, slammed his body against the castle gates.
A loud "bang, bang" echoed in the air.
And not far from this battlefield.
Fang Yuan is under Christian's protection.
Looking at this battlefield from afar.
"Your Excellency."
"Ogres don't look like a bunch of unintelligent beasts."
"They know tactics, and they have good armor."
"It seems to be an organized legion."
Christian said.
Fang Yuan nodded.
"Not bad."
"I thought I could push the ogres in this ogre forest like before."
"But I didn't expect that this ogre monarch in the ogre forest is really a monarch."
"The Ogre Forest, it should be called the Ogre Kingdom."
"The perimeter of the forest is full of all kinds of defenses."
"The strength of the Ogre Legion has reached the orange level."
.
"It's not at all comparable to the beast-like ogres of later generations."
"Christian."
"Looks like we're going to change our tactics."
"Either use the magic crystal cannon to clear the way."
"Either join the legions of the Bird Pioneer Lords."
"With the help of the Native Legion, let's attack the Ogre Forest together."
Christian thought about it.
"Your Excellency."
"The magic crystal cannon is slow to charge, and we don't bring much this time."
"It's too wasteful to use the magic crystal cannon to break through the outer walls."
"And there is no news about the clues of our main quest yet, so let's not expose the magic crystal cannon for the time being."
"Why don't you join the mercenary legion of the Bird Pioneer Territory."
"With the help of their siege engines, open the way into the Ogre Forest."
"Our mission is only to break through the ogre territory and kill the ogre monarch."
"The process ahead doesn't matter."
Fang Yuan agreed with this opinion.
"Okay, then join the mercenary legion of the Bird Pioneer Territory."
"Christian."
"Let Fiona lead the men to rush up."
"Kill these ogres."
"Kill them and save these sentinels."
"After that, I should be eligible to join the Bird Frontier and become a mercenary."
The mercenary legion of the so-called Bird Pioneer Lord.
It was discovered after Fang Yuan appeared in the Ogre Forest with a large army.
Over here.
Bird Pioneer received a lot of money and recruited many mercenaries.
Use mercenaries to form legions and set up sentry posts.
Little by little, encroaching on the territory of the Ogre Monarch.
This process lasted for decades.
Until now.
On the outskirts of the Ogre Forest, there are already no less than ten mercenary legions.
They were all employed by Bird Frontiers.
As long as you kill the ogre, you can exchange it for various supplies.
And these days, these mercenaries launched a war of infiltration.
A new round of encroachment on the Ogre Forest begins.
There was a fierce fight between the ogres and the mercenaries.
This incident alarmed the knights of Bird Pioneer Territory.
He sent his main army to participate in the war against the ogres.
And Fang Yuan arrived at this time.
It is completely possible to use the local power in the secret territory to complete this task together.
Shortly after Fang Yuan's order was given.
Fiona led five hundred sword and shield guards to quietly circle behind the ogre.
Then the ogre found between them.
Fiona decisively drew her sword.
Pointing at the ogre.
"Rush!"
Five hundred orange sword and shield guards.
In small groups of 10 people.
Quickly surround the ogres one by one.
"Despicable human!"
The Ogre's squad leader sees himself surrounded.
A yelling activates the skill.
The iron rod in the ogre's hand slammed into all directions.
The sword and shield guards raised their shields.
Heli resisted the iron rod.
Then, a long sword was pierced from under the shield.
The sharp blade combined with the power of the sword and shield guards.
Directly punctured the ogre's stomach.
"Bang la" intestines flowed out.
But the life force of the ogre is strong.
After this injury.
Instead of becoming weaker, he became more violent.
"Die!"
The ogre swung his stick and slammed it down.
The shield array composed of ten sword and shield guards was directly smashed open.
Five sword and shield guards were killed on the spot.
But soon.
The five guards were resurrected.
And blessed with a period of necromantic rage.
This skill, from the Warlord's talent, allows the squires to attack faster and attack stronger.
The sword flies.
Actually cut off the ogre.
With the lead ogre squad leader killed in battle.
The rest of the ogres were also killed by the sword and shield guards with their swords.
And this time.
The gate of the watchtower opens.
"We are the Tempest Wolves mercenary group."
"Are you Sir Bird's reinforcements?"
"Please escort us back to Sir Bird's territory."
"I have important information to report."
And after hearing the news.
At this time.
Fang Yuan, who was in the rear, heard a chime from the Lord's Seal.
"Ding, side quest two opens, escort the mercenaries, return to Sir Bird's territory, get rewards, and join Sir Bird's camp."
"Ding, the War Lord's talent experience has reached the fullest, the talent has been upgraded to the third level, and the third skill is opened, whether to draw the third skill."
