206 How lucky we are!
β¦β¦
The black dragon's nowhere to be found is confusing.
But after discussing with Matthew, they decided to respond to the changes with no change.
Overwatch Mountain as a winning condition in Point Capture mode.
As long as you occupy it.
can grasp the initiative to a certain extent.
In this regard, the appearance of the black dragon does not actually have much effect.
At the moment, the Rolling Stones side is organizing the construction of fortifications at its own pace.
As for the tents and other buildings.
That would have to wait for the fortifications in the southwest to take shape before the manpower could be allocated to build them.
Watch over the mountain.
A round of intensive construction is in full swing.
It's close to noon.
Gao Yeling's side finally reacted.
Everyone noticed.
Their large army was mainly concentrated on a hillside 5 km to the southwest.
The terrain of mossy green hills is characterized by a large number of hills.
And just 1 kilometer away from the watchman's mountain, there is actually a small hill, which is only about 1/3 shorter than the watchman's mountain.
Although there is no way to overlook all the surrounding environment like the watchman's mountain, it also has a relatively superior view advantage.
So at this time.
A team of human soldiers from Gao Yeling touched the mountain.
They looked like they wanted to set up a sentry there.
Of course.
The enemy is not reckless.
The group of human soldiers was followed by two teams of half-orc warriors.
They stood guard on both sides of the hillside.
If someone on the Rolling Stone's side wants to go down the mountain to interfere, they may be blocked by orc warriors.
In fact.
Although the high point is 1 km from close proximity to both sides.
But the rugged hilly terrain and potholed aquatic weed structure made charging a matter of caution.
What's more, the black dragon has not yet appeared.
The army of Rolling Rock categorically had no reason to come down the mountain and attack.
However, it is also unacceptable for Rolling Rock to allow the enemy to blatantly set up a guard on a hill close to his camp.
Matthew immediately found Rhaegar and whispered a few words.
A moment later.
A squad of archers came out of the ranks.
Approaching the southernmost part of the hill, they drew their longbows and tried to throw a round at the hill next door.
However, this was seriously beyond the range of the archers.
Despite their best efforts, most of the bows and arrows did not fly across the halfway line between the two hills.
The farthest shot could barely reach the opposite hillside.
See this scene.
The soldiers who were busy setting up their sentry sentry smiled.
They had been a little cautious.
After discovering that the enemy can't hurt you at all.
They couldn't help but lean in the direction of the watchman's mountain.
One of the small leaders even took off his pants defiantly in the direction of the watchman's mountain, and was about to release his hands in full view.
However, the next second.
A faint green light burst out from the top of the watchman's mountain.
Sting!
The sharp arrow wrapped in the wind elemental whistled and pierced the little boss's knee!
The latter's hands shook and his feet became soft, not only urinated on his body, but also sat down paralyzed!
This scene suddenly shocked everyone present.
Even the archers on the Rolling Stones side looked over curiously, but on the other side of the mountain, a zombie was holding a turquoise bow and arrow!
"Emerald Trade Winds: Kiss of the Trade Winds!"
Under the command of Matthew.
Renesme took aim with her bow and arrows in her hand, aiming far away.
After a few seconds.
As soon as she let go of her hand, another arrow landed on the other knee of the little boss.
The latter completely lost the ability to walk, and lay on the ground crying and wailing.
At this time, Gao Yeling's side obviously hadn't realized what was happening.
There's a reckless guy going up to help the little boss.
Sou!
Renesme is another arrow.
The Kiss of the Trade Winds crossed a distance of more than 1 kilometer and accurately hit the rescuer's chest.
This time it's not the knee.
It's the real heart!
These three arrows almost scared the human team on the opposite hill stupid.
A clever guy took a small round shield.
Then he tried to drag the little boss.
However, the area of the round shield is too small.
Sou!
A flash of green light.
Renysme fired her fourth arrow, hitting her enemy in the lower abdomen.
The latter fell to the ground in agony.
This was followed by the 4th, 5th, and 6th!
When all the unbelievers have become a cold corpse next to the little boss.
The human soldiers on the other side realized that there was an unfathomable marksman on Rolling Stone's side!
A full 10 minutes have passed.
Only then did a group of humans holding tower shields hold aloft slowly approach the place where the little leader fell.
The tower shield can provide one-sided defense without dead ends, and is indeed the nemesis of archers.
Renesmay glanced at it for a moment, then let go of the emerald trade winds.
However, when she played the strings again.
The bow and arrow in her hand turned into an extremely unique magic arrow!
"Striking the Sky (Special Arrows/Emerald Trade Winds Exclusive Arrows): You can bind an item to this arrow and shoot it without affecting the normal range.
Currently mounted: Grease Pack!"
Buzz!
Under the influence of magic, the arrow is silent when it leaves the string.
Only the bowstrings trembled wildly.
The next moment.
The magic arrow slammed into a huge tower shield.
Bang!
A slight explosion was heard.
A large amount of grease penetrates with the effect of splashing.
This grease pack is subjected to a specific treatment by Matthew.
Among them, not only the greasy surgery is constant.
It also contains a large amount of flammable substances.
It was a circle of grease fields that quickly formed around everyone!
When the pungent smell of asphalt poured into the nostrils of the soldiers.
Matthew had already handed over a rocket.
Renesme calmly took the arrow and shot it casually.
Bang!
Immediately the enemy hill burst into flames.
The flames poured into every soldier's body like a devil.
They were still holding their tower shields high at first, trying to pull back as they did so.
However, when the flames burned to their arms.
Only then did they feel the coming of death.
That moment.
The soldiers wailed, threw away their tower shields, and retreated down the hill.
However, it was this move that completely ruined their chance of escape.
Aiming at the gap, Renysme kills one by one.
The opposite hillside was soon filled with mourning.
Ultimately.
The 17 human troops who tried to set up a sentry on the opposite hill were all wiped out!
Eleven of them were shot dead by Renesme.
The remaining six were burned alive.
Among them, the end of the little boss was the most tragic.
When the fire burned on him, under the influence of survival instinct, he actually ran against two broken knees.
It's a pity that this scene didn't last long.
He was killed by the flames.
Time.
Rolling Stone's side rejoices.
The two opposing squads that Renysme single-handedly eliminated were undoubtedly very morale-boosting.
Especially the archers, they were shocked by Miss Zombie's archery skills and admired them to the ground.
And Gao Yeling's side was gloomy.
Lost this secondary commanding height.
They had no choice but to go to places with poor visibility to set up sentry posts.
This will have a lot of negative effects on their monitoring of the Watch Mountain.
And in the process.
Matthew also noticed a very interesting detail -
That's when the human forces were attacked by Renysme from a distance.
The orc troops on the hillsides on either side were indifferent.
Although their role is to assist in defense.
But looking at the death of the human soldiers, the orcs had no attitude of helping at all.
It can be seen the situation inside the army of Gao Yeling.
The first meeting was a complete victory.
The enthusiasm of the people in Rolling Rock Town to build the fortifications is even higher.
In the afternoon.
The enemy is moving again-
A team of orcs attempted to make their way around the northwest, crossing a shallow river, trying to get into the rear of Rolling Stone.
However, this scene was captured by Zeller's surveillance spell.
He had wanted to send a pair of men to deal with the enemy.
Matthew, however, said that it was on him.
The orcs thought they were careful.
A group of 8 of them, dressed in camouflaged clothes, slowly approached the river.
Although the river is small, the sound of the water is turbulent.
They lined up in a long line and marched forward in an orderly manner.
However, when the last orc soldier stepped into the river with both feet.
A pair of scimitars, dull in the daytime, rested around his neck.
Shout!
There was a soft, barely audible sound.
The orc's head tumbled in the air a few times, then fell into the water with a thud, stumbling downstream with the current and riverbed.
However, the sound of the water is loud.
The killing machine that covers everything up.
The remaining orcs continued their efforts to cross the river.
They didn't notice that a pair of scimitars approached their backs like death.
One.
Two.
Three.
Until the orc who walked in front successfully crossed the river, he stepped on the edge of the river, and subconsciously looked back-
All he saw was the terrifying headless corpses of seven orcs standing in the middle of the river!
His eyes widened, and his pupils shrank suddenly.
The exclamations have not yet come out.
A chill slit his throat.
Burst.
The image of the world spinning appeared in his field of vision.
At the last moment of life.
He finally saw the appearance of deathβ
It's a skeleton that kills people and twists its crotch at the same time!
β¦β¦
After two consecutive defeats.
Gao Yeling's side finally didn't dare to make any more moves.
They honestly stayed and camped on the hillside 5 kilometers away, looking like they were going to fight a protracted battle with Rolling Stone.
Rolling Rock didn't let its guard down either.
Zeller's surveillance spells operate 24 hours a day.
From time to time, Matthew also rode a pegasus to go around the enemy's head in the open-
The black dragon is not there.
Air supremacy was easily in Matthew's hands.
Plus Pegasus has the ability to become invisible.
Many times, Matthew can fly past the scalp of the enemy.
Several times to scout down.
The army of the High Leaf Leader knows nothing about Rolling Stone.
Matthew, however, had a thorough understanding of the enemy.
The distribution of troops is almost exactly the same as the information given by Vandal.
And in the camp.
Matthew finds the dragon priest Drava as commander-in-chief, a human general with a beard, and a gnolla with only one ear.
Each of the three of them commanded a different unit.
The scope of the camps of the three armies is also clearly defined.
Obviously.
The black dragon is not there.
The situation of centrifugal betrayal within the army of Gao Yeling was very serious.
This reassured Matthew.
Estimated before night.
It is impossible for the enemy to launch an operation on Overwatch Mountain.
This move is exactly what Matthew and others want.
In their plans.
Time is on their side.
The confrontation between the two armies below turned into a hot camp construction.
And above the sky.
A huge magic carpet shrouded the sphere of invisibility.
There were dozens of people sitting on the magic carpet.
These aren't Alliance Mages.
It's the major city lords from the south!
The Battle of the Mossy Hills was the first battle in the South, and it was also a milestone battle in the Alliance's plan.
Because it has a strong demonstration effect.
So many city lords applied to come and watch the battle.
The Coalition gladly allowed it.
However, only one spectator is allowed in each province.
Therefore, all the people here are the number one people in the large and small territories of the south.
About this scene in front of you.
Of course, the city lords did not think of it.
In fact.
No one will think that the two sides of the battle will fight to the death on the first day, which is not in line with the logic of using troops.
So the words they talk about the most now are:
Necromancer;
White Rock City;
There are so many of them;
Whether it is a violation.
And so on and so forth.
And just to the northeast of the magic carpet, farther away from the other city lords, there were four people sitting upright.
Three of them wore brooches on their chests that symbolized their lordship.
The other woman is a mage apprentice of the Alliance.
The three lords of this place are Lady Alena, the lord of the city from Deep Blue Harbor, Barton, the lord of the Lion City, who has a reputation as a golden lion and has recently swept the invincible opponent of the East Coast, and Gavin, the lord of Goldwater City, who has a mixed reputation.
Among the three.
Alena's sense of presence is the weakest, but because of her natural beauty and extraordinary temperament, she can also attract a lot of attention from the surroundings.
The golden lion Patton is the most imposing, he has blonde hair and a pair of sharp eyes, and his every move reveals the aura of a king.
Gavin, the lord of Jinshui City, was a very weak young man, but his eyes were extremely smart, his eyes were extremely long, and when his eyes were narrowed, he looked like a fox thinking.
Now.
The trio were also discussing the issue of the necromancer.
"Are necromancers so powerful? Isn't White Rock City invincible? β
The golden lion asked with a solemn face.
Gavin was also full of doubts:
"I've seen some necromancers who have a splitting headache just by maintaining hundreds of summons, how can this one be so relaxed? You see he can ride a horse! Wait, aren't Pegasus divine creatures? Why is it for necromancers? β
Alena smiled at this.
But the female apprentice named Leslie explained:
"Necromancers do have expertise in summoning the undead, but to achieve this effect, I'm afraid it's because Mr. Matthew's personal strength is too strong."
The Golden Lion nodded:
"This Matthew is really powerful, did you just see it? The zombie archer and the skeleton assassin were both summons of Matthew - but they were far more powerful than ordinary adventurers, which was already unreasonably powerful. β
Leslie smiled and said:
"Mr. Matthew is very powerful, I assisted him in a B1 spell research project, and he is a very serious person.
What's more.
His background is deep! β
The three lords were immediately interested:
"How deep?"
Leslie mysteriously lowered her voice:
"He could be the youngest A1 in the history of the league!
Rumor has it that it goes.
Mr. Matthew has an inexplicable relationship with Master Ronan, Miss Isabel, Master Ekmond, and Miss Surrell.
He was also recently revealed to be suspected of having a leg with Margaret, the most powerful battle mage in the alliance!
furthermore
Several demons and lords in the astral plane, as well as some gods in Tianlun Palace, seem to be collecting information about Mr. Matthew.
Although he himself is relatively low-key.
But the people who can connect with these powerful beings.
How can it be an ordinary person? β
After Leslie said this, the three of them reacted differently.
Alena was a little taken aback;
Gavin, on the other hand, watched with interest what was going on below;
But Barton the Golden Lion frowned and said:
"Why did such a powerful mage choose to register in a small place like Rolling Stone?"
"Didn't he know it was a big gamble?"
"Or maybe there's something great about Rolling Rock that we can't see?"
Gavin joked:
"Is it possible that he just thinks Rolling Rock is closer to home?"
Patton not only did not refute this.
I really seriously thought about the possibility of such a situation.
At this time.
Leslie interjected again:
"According to the rules of the War Order, if you form an alliance with Rolling Stone, you can use the foreign aid quota of your allies to let Master Matthew join the battlefield during the battle, so that not only do you not have to face his army of undead, but he will become your partner."
None of the three lords showed a surprised expression at this.
Same as Rolling Stone.
All the territories have thoroughly studied it as soon as they received the war order.
It soon became clear that alliances encouraged alliances.
Although non-registered mages cannot participate in the war.
Registered mages also cannot move freely.
However, they can join the battle in other realms as allies.
Needless to say, what a mage can do is what he can do.
Therefore.
Territories with strong registered mages will also be wooed by more people.
"I don't like necromancers."
"But this Matthew, I think we can try to get along."
Barton, the golden lion, touched his chin and commented.
Gavin smiled:
"I'm going to see again."
Alena rolled her eyes and suddenly said:
"Which side do you think will win this battle?"
"Why don't we take a gamble?"
The Golden Lion and Gavin glanced at each other, and the two suddenly said in unison:
"Rolling Stone!"
Alena was taken aback.
She thought that she was the only one who learned about the hidden dragon and crouching tiger in Rolling Stone Town through the channels of her cousin Loran.
I didn't expect these two city lords who didn't know anything about Rolling Rock Town to make the same judgment as themselves!
So she couldn't help but ask:
"Why do you think that?"
Gavin laughed and said:
"Because when everyone is optimistic about Gao Yeling, you suddenly asked this question, which means that you have information that we don't know, then the winner is likely to be Rolling Stone."
Alena was obviously not convinced, and she asked suspiciously:
"On that basis alone, you can be sure that Rolling Stones will win?"
Gavin smiled like a fox.
I found a few more lame reasons to try to get by.
The golden lion on the other side is much more upright.
He bluntly said:
"Rolling Stones was submitted in the wake of the Black Dragon's attack.
This shows that they are not afraid of the black dragon at all.
And it is not difficult to see from the marching arrangement and strategic policy of Rolling Rock Town that they have made more adequate preparations for this battle.
On the other hand, the high leaf collar is there.
They're a mess!
I don't know what that black dragon is up to.
He may have been afraid of Rolling Stone's killer moves.
Or maybe it's doing something weird.
But the way of using soldiers.
The most taboo is that the Lord will be whimsical.
Perhaps he felt that hiding first was a good strategy, and that he would be able to confuse the enemy and make him unable to attack.
But correspondingly.
This behavior is also a great harm to the soldiers under his command.
From the point of view of war.
That black dragon still has a lot to learn. β
Gavin laughed and said:
"Mr. Barton has a point!"
"I didn't expect me to hit it right."
Barton looked at him and said nothing.
Alena still looked a little unwilling:
"But it's a dragon!"
"A real dragon!"
Gavin immediately answered this time:
"Dragons may be strong, but for thousands of years, they have never really ruled the land."
"Ms. Alena, you're going to die, it's impossible for the two of us to lose the bet on Rolling Stone, if we really can make such an outrageous decision, we don't know how many times we have moved the head on our neck."
The golden lion is even more domineering exposed:
"Dragons? The beast is one size bigger! β
"It's a pity that I can't end up, otherwise I will slaughter him!"
Alena looked at the two men helplessly, and the sense of powerlessness in her heart became stronger.
These lords are all human spirits.
She had planned to use a little beauty and the thriving economy of Deep Blue Harbor to try to merge with each other.
As a result, for most of the year, I didn't take advantage of it at all.
This made her pay more attention to the silly guy under her a few glances.
"I wonder if after all these years, Rhaegar is still the same as back then?"
Just as Alena was thinking about it.
Gavin snorted suddenly.
There was also a slight noise where the other lords were.
The crowd looked down.
But to the northeast of Shouwang Mountain, where it should have been a no-man's land, a convoy of wild frogmen actually appeared!
Even more outrageous.
The mad frogman convoy was extremely long, and they were slowly approaching the Watch Mountain with oxen pulling carts one after another!
"Why is there a convoy?!"
"Where did the frogman come from? Shouldn't this area be cleared? β
"What's the situation? Did this first battle cause so many surprises? β
Just when the lords were talking.
Suddenly a group of men and horses rushed down from the slopes of Watch Mountain.
The first three are all extremely strong.
At the forefront was a wild man-like black charcoal head, who ran with teeth and claws as fast as lightning, and rushed from the hill to the frogman convoy almost instantly.
She was followed by a half-orc woman.
Next to her, a beast was running wildly.
And behind them.
It's the militia and reserve team of Rolling Stone!
The next second.
An even more shocking scene appeared-
When the dark-skinned young man rushed to the side of the convoy.
All the frogmen suddenly screamed wow, wow, wow.
They looked terrified and fled in all directions!
Frogmen, known for their belligerence and xenophobia, did not stay behind to guard the precious possessions on the car, but ran away without a trace.
The exaggerated acting skills of the crazy frogs caused everyone to complain.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this group of crazy frogmen is playing a logistical role for Rolling Stone!
The carts were piled with all kinds of logs.
Some even have buckets of hot oil on them.
It's still steaming in the oil!
At this time.
Verdict 07 couldn't help but fly down.
Seeing that the people of Rolling Rock Town happily received the gift of nature.
Verdict 07 couldn't help but ask Matthew, who rushed over:
"What is this?"
Matthew answered truthfully:
"The Frogman's convoy."
Ruling 07 has a green tendon on his forehead jumping:
"When will the frogmen domesticate cattle?"
Matthew thought for a moment:
"Maybe they're keeping up with the times?"
Verdict 07 gritted his teeth:
"And where did they get all those logs? Don't tell me that the frogman suddenly mastered a powerful logging technique! β
Matthew mused:
"Maybe they're trying to renovate the village?"
"It's just that they were unlucky, they happened to be passing by here and were robbed by us!"
"Speaking of which, we're so lucky!"
Verdict 07 subconsciously has to hold his head in his hands.
You can imagine so many pairs of eyes looking overhead.
At that moment, he could only grit his teeth and take out a small notebook, and recorded on it-
"Five o'clock in the afternoon.
A convoy of unwarned frogmen stumbles by.
It was raided by the Rolling Stones army.
A large amount of logs, stones and other edible oils and fats were accidentally seized.
Since the war code does not prohibit the warring parties from plundering the wild creatures in the battle area.
So it was passed."
Write these down.
Ruling 07 took out another copy of the opinion.
I saw that he had just picked up the pen.
I saw Matthew's bright smile.
He gritted his teeth again.
Quickly wrote on it -
"It is strongly recommended that Matthew be banned from the battle!"
Finish that.
He flew to the clouds as fast as he could.
Now.
Ruling 09, who was in charge of documenting Gao Yeling's situation, protested to him:
"What is this?"
Verdict 07 answered truthfully:
"The Frogman's convoy."
Ruling 09 incredulously asked:
"When will the frogmen domesticate cattle?"
Verdict 07 recalls Matthew's wording:
"Maybe they're keeping up with the times?"
Verdict 09 glared and asked:
"What about the hot oil and stones?"
Verdict 07 subconsciously replied according to Matthew's answer:
"Maybe they're trying to renovate the village?"
"It's just that they were unlucky, they happened to pass through here and were robbed by the army of Rolling Stone!"
"Speaking of which, they're so lucky!"
Ruling 09 looked at the other party speechlessly.
Verdict 07 also realized that he had not answered the question, and closed his mouth in some embarrassment.
"I'm protesting on behalf of Gao Yeling!"
"Rolling Stone's move is clearly cheating!"
Ruling 09 said.
So the next second.
A graceful figure appeared on the magic carpet.
"Protests are ineffective."
It was a gentle female voice.

(End of chapter)
