Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
"Alright, go ahead, remember to do what you can. If you can't find a target, just put more things in this barracks that you are good at, poisonous insects, plants, animals, anything. ”
Edward gathered his thoughts, commanded, and leaned around
He only believes in strength rather than strategy, and planning this night attack is just to let these guys who have never been on the battlefield experience the feeling of death. As for the task assigned to them, it is to burn the other party's grain and grass, but as long as they have some military experience, it is impossible to completely hoard the grain and grass in the camp, not to mention that there is such a thing as magic in this world, even if it is the grain and grass of tens of thousands of troops, after being treated with shrinkage, it is just a place like a carriage that can be installed, if the enemy has a space pocket or something, it is impossible to succeed in a sneak attack.
The real role of these people is just an insurance policy, to disturb the opponent a little when he needs it.
For Edward, what needed to be done was to be able to disperse the enemy in front of him as much as possible, and to stabilize it at worst, so that he could have some hope that he could finish what the old guy had given him.
But what gave Edward some headache was that the mages who had originally said that they would meet here were nowhere to be found, even now, and more than a dozen hourglasses had passed by the agreed time. Although the evil talisman in the sky has an impact on the teleportation brother, it is not enough to completely seal the teleportation, but it is easy to interfere and cause too large a deviation, and the precise point-to-point teleportation of the teleportation array will naturally be affected, but ordinary teleportation is not necessarily so difficult.
As for the target city is under siege. It may be a nuisance for mages, but it is never a big hassle. As long as there is a flying technique and a stealth, it is not a very technically difficult problem to break through the encirclement that is only a few miles deep and enter the city.
So, what is the reason?
Edward sighed softly and walked forward, but his steps stopped.
For behind him, the elf lady was standing still not far away, and did not seem to have the slightest thought of taking the order with her companions.
"I wasn't clear enough?" The Psychic asked.
"Make no mistake. Mankind. The instructions of the elders are that you are now our ally, on an equal footing with the elders, but I will not care about the others, but I have the right not to listen to any of the elders, so I am not obligated to obey your orders. “
"Huh?" Edward raised his gaze, "Of course, if you don't want to do it." You can just go back to the city. ”
The elf bit her lip and said nothing. Just standing there didn't mean to leave.
"If you want to follow, then follow up a little bit, otherwise if it catches their attention, I can always leave. The forced calmness on that pretty face made Edward shake his head and smile. Just ran into such a stubborn piece of hob meat, even he couldn't do anything for a while, so he shook his head, he simply took a step and walked towards the big camp. Miss Elf, named Leia, was silent. Carefully followed behind him.
The more you move forward, the surprise in the elf's eyes. The more it becomes.
Or, the general was indeed a good commander, and his men built the camp with an elaborate layout and tight defense, and the night watchmen were arranged with such ingenuity and breadth that there was little problem with the view of the zài...... Everyone was on full alert.
However, to that human, these wide-eyed guards didn't make sense at all.
His steps were not hurried, and it seemed as if he were probing into the hinterland of the enemy's camps? Simply, no, even if he was strolling around his own city, he might not have been so leisurely, but all the way through the camp, no one dared to ask him a question.
In fact, it was not that no one came to investigate, but after a few words of exchange with the young man, they waved his hand and let him go, as if he were from the camp in the first place.
Miss Elf watched several empires pass by them, but they didn't seem to pay attention to these two obviously suspicious guys at all, the closer they got to the central commander's tent, the more and more sentinels came and went, but the black-robed man still walked unhurriedly, and walked in a small circle in the barracks, and the two came to a more ornate tent, where there was no fire around, only the luster in the tent was created through the gaps, but in the elf's perception, There were colored halos all around him, which were the traces of magic.
"Wait for me here, preferably hide as an animal. ”
The elf glared at him, but stood cautiously in the shadow of a tent, watching him walk into one tent, and a moment later he came out again, and entered another, and in a moment he had walked through more than twenty tents, and then smiled at the elf who was a little apprehensive. "Alright, let's go. ”
Leia's beautiful brow furrowed deeply.
Everyone in the world knows that the elf's hearing is excellent, and he can detect subtle sounds two or three times the range of ordinary people, and any mosquitoes and flies flapping their wings are in the ears, but in fact, this noble creature is more sensitive than ordinary people in the five senses, and in the dim firelight, he can also notice a splash of blood on the feet of the long black robe.
But what was even more concerning was the strong smell of blood on that person's body - for humans, it was just a faint smell of fish, but Leia knew that it was not just a matter of killing one or two people to keep his body tidy and get such a big smell of blood on his body.
"That's where the mages live, right?" Miss Elf finally couldn't hold back the doubts in her heart anymore and asked, "What happened to you?"
"Killed. It's a pity that these imperial mages are very poor, there are less than a hundred scrolls on the twenty or so people, and there are not many valuable things and equipment that are not very good, I thought that at least there should be some good wands or something, but it turned out to be all wands. I remember that the Empire was not so poor. ”
The Psychic Warlock's words were tinged with a hint of indignation, but that tone of understatement. It fell on the ears of the elves, but it was like a thunderclap. Her heart was beating and her face was pale......
Twenty or so many mages, it is so easy to be ...... Killed?
"It's not a hassle to sneak up on a group of sleeping people, right? When a mage is most vulnerable, when he is sleeping, these guys are too dependent on the outside world to complain about anyone when they die. Edward's voice was a little lighthearted: "But there are still a dozen guys who are women." Even if it's a little left for the empire. ”
"You're crazy, what if they show you?"
The unbelievable answer made Miss Elf's voice raise a little - such arbitrariness and no plan in the enemy's military camp, if it is besieged by hundreds or thousands of people, even the ** division may not be able to retreat in its entirety! Not to mention that this is the center of the enemy's camp, in order to prevent a sneak attack. The anti-teleportation circle is a must here!
"Now, I'm afraid they wouldn't have thought that this time we were the only ones who came to attack us, right? All the defenses were to deal with the robbery camp, so other aspects would naturally be lax. As long as there is a way to deal with their passwords, the average soldier will not go into trouble with a mage. ”
Miss Elf frowned. She looked him up and down fiercely, and said no more.
So Edward smiled slightly, and continued to wander around the camp with her, unhurried...... Of course, the Psychic Warlock wouldn't sue her. There is a psionic effect called group obscuring the mind, and for the present self. It is no longer a problem to create the illusion of a dozen or so people, except for those sentry posts, a stranger is actually safe in the center of the camp with a relatively high level of garrison, similar to "those who appear here are all approved by a certain level", this kind of natural blind spot of thinking will not let them be exposed lightly.
As for the young lady, Edward was only connecting with a fate, temporarily linking the effects of his abilities to her.
In almost a moment, they were already at the center of the joint venture.
The lights were shining in the huge tent that was more than 20 feet high,
"There are a lot of trees in this generation, and it will not be very difficult to make a large catapult, as long as you gather more than fifty mages and cooperate with the summoning of more than two earth elemental elders, it is not very difficult to capture the city, even if that person is a real great magician, it is impossible for him to go head-to-head with so many mages, and the time to capture the fortress may be a day or two later than planned, but this deviation is completely acceptable. ”
A withered palm stretched out from the red robe, and tapped on a map of fine leather, and immediately, a flame burned on the map. Brighten up the smile in his hood. But the old general, who was beside him, only sighed.
"I hope so. ”
"You're a little too worried, Your Excellency General, I think you can do it as long as you want to do it, and you should know it better than me. The High Mage stretched out his hand, and the flames faded between his fingers, leaving only a completely unburned appearance.
"Tong Guò today's siege battle, you should have noticed that their number of mages is too small. Therefore, we can first use the elite soldiers to divide the troops into several ways to attack at the same time, and after the city is captured, once the location of the lion is determined, we will send ordinary soldiers and recruits in a steady stream!"
"Are you going to ......?"
"Yes, it's very simple, it's a tactic that almost all magicians can't get rid of. The red-robed mage smiled: "Use something to draw his attention and consume his strength, and with the help of our magic, a great mage is not a problem, of course, generally speaking, the more advanced the mage, the more fully prepared for his own future." Even if he hadn't killed him, as long as the danger factor was enough to alert him, I think he would have fled on his own.
"It's a good idea...... But, Master, I can't accept your opinion just now. ”
General Bunares raised his head, the luster of fluorite lingering, staining his face with a layer of ruddy: "Death is inevitable in war, but dying in battle and sending soldiers to die are completely different things. This kind of behavior of seeking to consume the magic power of the great magician with the life of a soldier is simply not tolerated by chivalry. That is an evil way condemned by the world, if that happens. Do you think our soldiers can resist each other? Not to mention that this thing tends to provoke a strong backlash among the soldiers, that is, to cause mutiny. It's not unusual. In the ......"
The argument between the two began to accumulate, however, a figure behind all the observers took a few steps back at this time.
This mage didn't seem to have any interest in tactics, so his attention was always focused on his surroundings, this mage named Link was not very old, but he was already a high-level mage who had touched the six-layer magic net. And the reason why he was able to continue his strength so quickly, in addition to talent, may be more due to personal interest.
Two hundred feet, one hundred feet...... It's almost time to enter the tent
A silent smile appeared on Lynch's lips, he didn't know how the guards in front of him had let these two men in, but on the orders of General Bunaresres. There were only twenty-three people who could approach the tent without informing, and only five who did not stop in front of that line, and these two men were obviously not one of them, and for such a person he had the power to dispose of it at will, and was not responsible to anyone.
However, Lynch's smile froze instantly. Because just before he raised his hand, ready to use a spell with a fixed effect to cause the two intruders to be pierced by a bolt of lightning, he heard a voice.
"If you don't want to die, don't move. ”
It was a deep, magnetic voice that sounded almost close to Lynch's ear. Before he spoke, Lynch had completely failed to perceive anyone approaching.
Lynch's body stiffened. He didn't dare to make any moves. Fear had taken over his entire consciousness. He wanted to run away, but the excessive fear made him cold. All the joints were frozen and unable to move, but eventually, the pressure of death finally allowed him to break free from the restraints of fear, and he roared and prepared to retreat......
The thought of escaping had become his last bit of thought, and the next moment, an indescribable force broke through his spiritual defenses, rushing into his mind like a torrent, and brutally crushing his life essence to pieces!
So, in the eyes of everyone in the tabernacle, the body of the high-ranking mage with his real name stiffened, the little fire of life in his eyes spread, and his body leaned back like a piece of wood, smashing on the carpet with a soft thud, in fact, before he hit the ground, his face was already pale and he was breathless. There was a look of horror on his face, and there was a hint of doubt, as if he was asking a final question.
What kind of power is this?-
"Honorific name?" The old general raised his head, the luster in his eyes moving slightly, but his expression remained calm.
"Edward, Edward? Vincent. The Psychic Warlock's gaze had always fallen on this veteran, only when he had just killed the mage, he was slightly off, and now he turned his gaze back and smiled slightly: "You are General Bunares, right? Also, if I am not mistaken, most of the troops here are your direct subordinates?"
"About half of it. This question made the old general silent for a while, but in the end, he just said seemingly casually: "Oh, it was originally less than half, and the rest belonged to several subordinates. ”
"So, how about you stay here for a while?" The psychic warlock didn't care about his deliberate concealment, but just smiled.
"My task is to move forward, not to hold on. The old man was slightly stunned, his pale head trembled, and the wrinkles on his face deepened a lot.
"But that task is no longer complete. Or rather, it is destined to be unfinished. There are not enough forces to match the strong, and there are not enough numbers to encroach on territory. This reckless plan only failed from the start. The telemancer sighed, and then spoke slowly: "Rather than consuming your precious talents in this boring place, it is better to keep their lives and your own strength, otherwise, it will be very difficult for your territory to defend, and,"
"As a soldier, I'm not afraid of failure, but if I stand still, it's not a failure. ”
"Ahh
Edward laughed happily: "That's not a reason, or rather, not a proper reason. However, I can also give you a good reason, for example, how about borrowing your head for a while?" (To be continued.)
