Volume 1 Threesome Chapter 138 Complete Blockade
Fight the Tree of Life against the Tree of Life.
It sounds like a no-brainer, but it's hard to do
In an environment where the demonic veins of the whole country are controlled by the Nibelungen Sealing Dragon Array, how can we find a pure land that can make the young tree of life grow? Even if we find this pure land, how can we cover up the various visions of the tree of life when it grows?
It's not just about finding the right environment, but also about making sure it grows to a certain point without being detected
Once either of these two conditions cannot be met, the result will inevitably attract the full force of the Sealing Dragon Array, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
The meaning of the elven elder is naturally to secretly plant the Tree of Life in the Autumn Ancient City.
After all, this is the territory of the Asrex family, making it easy to act in secrecy. In addition, in view of Alice's previous arrangements, the demon veins in this place have gathered the power of the two major counties, and they can also supply the needs of the Tree of Life in the early stage.
However, Midi eventually denied this.
Because if it does, the tree of life will never grow to be able to defend a nation. Not only that, but the so-called stealth behavior, in other words, is to pin everything on luck.
After planting, the only thing Midi and the others could do was probably pray, praying that the pretenders who controlled the Nibelungen Dragon Sealing Array would not notice the abnormal flow of magic in this place and would not attack. During this period, they simply did not have any offensive capital.
Twenty years after being reborn, Midi had already decided that he would not pin his fate on others, so how could he agree to such a passive approach?
Three days later, the Royal Academy of Magic affiliated camp.
Just over a hundred kilometers from the capital, Huttonmar, it was the site of last year's academy trials, and under the turmoil of the civil war, it was a mess everywhere, apparently once visited by bandits and monsters.
However, according to calculations, just below this camp, there is a main vein of the Great Dragon Sealing Array.
"Mistress Midi, with all due respect, this is definitely a ...... Crazy decision. The faces of the elven elder and the elven gardener both became very ugly, "You actually want to plant the seed directly on the root system of the Belmar Tree of Life?"
"That's right. Midi nodded faintly, but there was a calmness in her eyes.
Not only that, the red-haired girl and the black-haired girl standing silently behind him also had very calm expressions
In Midi's opinion, since it is possible to find a tree of life planted anywhere in Belmar, what needs to be done is to reduce the time it takes to grow as little as possible. In this case, the location of the dragon vein with the most magic power has naturally become the first choice.
Even if he was a pretender, he would never have thought that Midi would have the audacity to plant a tree of life under his nose.
As for the magic anomaly caused by growth, it is not impossible to solve it.
"Compared to the rest of the principality, where the dragon veins are located, the flow of mana is the most frequent. Now that the Nibelungen Dragon Sealing Array has been activated, and we are constantly accumulating mana every week, attacking other areas, it is the best opportunity for us," Midi analyzed word by word, and finally came to a conclusion, "As long as the idea tries to disturb the situation and make this attack more frequent, then it is enough to cover up the anomaly when the tree of life grows"
"Midi-sama, do you mean to take the initiative to create chaos?" Hearing this, even the elven elders who didn't know much about military affairs understood his thoughts, "It's just that those pretenders have always been extremely cunning, so how can they lead them by the nose?"
"The purpose of the pretender is not yet clear, Queen Skadi is already weak, and now she is shrinking into the Protectorate Array, and it is not easy to start, but don't we have another ready-made prey?" said Midi, a sneer on the corner of her mouth.
A day later.
Within the Duchy of Hamilton, County Weske.
When the Tree of Life became a terrible symbol of destruction, most of the nobles, especially the members of the Hamilton family, would raise their heads to look at the sky from time to time, worrying about whether the next thunder attack would fall on their heads.
However, in Weskshire, no one did this, whether it was a commoner, a soldier, a knight in full armor, or a well-dressed nobleman.
On the contrary, most of the time, people, especially the sentinels, focused their attention on the outside of the town, as if fearing that someone would come and attack.
These people have the blood of the Hamilton family in their veins, however, at this moment, they are the enemies of this land. Because they are members of the "branch of the book", betrayers of the family.
In fact, most people can be said to be ignorant of the various conspiracies planned by the upper echelons, however, the weapons, armor, and mounts that destroyed the Iron Cavalry, and the funds that have been misappropriated over the years to reserve the army, etc., are all due to their labor to a certain extent.
Therefore, when Domingo's identity was revealed, everyone in the branch of the book, whether it was a commoner or an aristocrat, had already been branded as "guilty".
In normal times, after finding out the truth, the Golden Bough Legion will intercept it as soon as possible and slaughter the entire branch of the scroll. Even if you are determined to give up everything and run away, it is useless, not to mention whether you can escape from the city, no one will accept such a traitor, including the parliamentarians.
But now it's different, under the deterrence of the power of the sealing dragon, all the armies, including the Golden Bough Legion, can only choose to lie dormant and hide in dark corners, and don't dare to make any big moves at all.
The branch of the scroll can still sit firmly in its own county town in a big way, and accept the protection of the Great Array of Sealed Dragons.
For the first few days, the people in the branch of the book were nervous.
However, after two or three weeks, everything is still calm, and people's minds have gradually settled down.
Perhaps this time, the Scroll Branch will indeed have a chance to become the ruler of the Duchy of Belmar
Not as Hamilton, but simply as a "book", standing at the apex of a nation
In people's hearts, such expectations began to arise.
But soon, the alarm bells sounding in the sky above the county town sobered everyone up.
"Enemy attack, the enemy is coming, hurry up and defend it, block all the main roads" When they saw that flag, the centurion suddenly shouted hoarsely, "It's the Falcon Regiment, that damn Falcon Regiment is coming"
On the hill not far away, thousands of high-ranking adventurers on tall horses had emerged from their hiding places, and in front of the array, three hundred Nightblade Panther Cavalry. At the forefront, a young man with black hair and black eyes, beside him, the flag bearer proudly held a large fluttering flag, on which was embroidered a sharp sword with wings.
This is the symbol of the Falcon Regiment, the Sword of Wings
In the battle of the Rainbow City, the record of 10,000 Destruction Iron Cavalry being defeated by 5,000 Falcon Regiments has long spread throughout the principality. Besides, there were not many soldiers in the branch of the scroll, and excluding the 10,000 Destruction Iron Cavalry that had been secretly built, there were only a few hundred local defenders in this county town now.
At this moment, the Falcon Regiment and that genius commander appeared outside Wesk County, which naturally terrified everyone.
Fortunately, the mysterious black-robed mage sitting in the county town of Wesk immediately sent a magical message to the capital, and when Midi and his party approached the county town, the sky outside the county city also began to change color, and the lead-gray dark clouds continued to accumulate, forming a thick stratocumulus cloud, as if some kind of overwhelming attack was brewing.
Seeing that the purple-gold thunder and lightning were about to be accumulated, Midi did not stay, but just walked around Wesk County with thousands of horses of the Falcon Regiment like a demonstration, and then hurriedly retreated.
Witnessing the retreat of this terrifying force in the principality, the branches of the scroll let out a cheer from top to bottom.
Look, no matter how powerful the army is, in the face of the strength of the Great Dragon Sealing Array, there is only retreat
Thinking in this way reaffirmed the ambition that the branch of the book would eventually ascend to the throne.
However, the good times were short-lived, and in the afternoon of the same day, when a baggage team of the Scroll Branch arrived, it ran into a large number of traps on the post road, and then the people flipped on their horses, and most of the supplies were burned on the spot by the unquenchable magical flames.
In the middle of the night, another large group of mutated minotaurs were also attracted by some kind of bait, and a fierce battle broke out with the garrison of the book branch, with heavy losses on both sides.
Early the next morning, the defending general had to send people out to clear the traps.
It's just that Midi brought with him this time are all adventurers who are specialized in this area, and there are all kinds of traps and bait, which can be cleared so easily? It took three whole days for the soldiers of Weskshire to finally clear a safe passage after paying the price of dozens of casualties.
However, it was as if the opponent's ability had already been calculated. On the morning of the fourth day, Midi came again with his men, and circled the county as usual, and then withdrew again before the purple-golden lightning fell
Looking at the traps all over the mountains, the defender general's eyes suddenly darkened, and he almost passed out.
The same is happening in the other counties where the branch of the scroll is located.
It's as if everything is back to the state when the Great Fire of Gran Grove has just burned out.
At that time, due to the mutation of monsters and the rampant banditry, it became turbulent everywhere, and it was extremely difficult to transport goods and commercial activities. But now, it is no longer those "amateur" monsters who have created this kind of problem, but the experienced experts of the Hayabusa Regiment, who are only targeting a few counties, so it is even more terrifying to blockade them.
After a week's action, several county towns can be said to have reached the point where they can't leave the city at all, and once they get out, it will be difficult to move an inch.
And although the support of the Sealing Dragon Array was already extremely fast, how could it keep up with the rhythm of such intensive harassment?
Most of the time, the garrison could only huddle behind the walls, watching as the falcons unscrupulously set a large number of traps and then flew away.
"The lightning attack has no effect on us, so it's time for those pretenders to use their true strength, right?And as long as we use the power of the dragon in a row, it's time for us to take the opportunity to plant our own tree of life" Looking at the distant capital city of Hutton Marr, Midi's eyes flashed with a hint of confidence.
