The young duke, dressed in golden armor, had already led his soldiers to evacuate the battlefield in an orderly and rapid manner.
Looking at the fire, smoke, and the chaotic crowd like blind ants in the distance, he smiled: "Fortunately, I saw the opportunity quickly, and ran away as soon as I saw the red dragon set fire, otherwise I don't know how many people and horses would have been lost." Hmph, my "dear" king, my "respected" king, your soldiers are all dead and crippled, how will you rule this country in the future? Your family has ruled this country for more than 70 years, and now it is our family's turn. My grandfather died of exhaustion in the battle with the dwarves, and my father died at the hands of the kobold lizardmen. Their sacrifice was not in vain, and today I have a chance to step into the position of king, hahahahaha.
He laughed happily on the horse, which made the few guards next to him inexplicable—they were as elated as if they had picked up gold bricks after losing the battle. Aren't you mad? And the direction in which the Duke led everyone to escape was indeed a bit problematic! They kindly reminded, "Duke, we seem to have run the wrong way. On the other side is the border fortress of the Principality of Hereford. Should I turn around and leave?"
Duke Jinjia was stunned: "Ran wrong?" and looked carefully into the distance, under the moonlight, there was really a small town in the distance. But there seemed to be a lot of people under the city walls, and a little bonfires could be seen flickering. Suddenly he was happy again: "Look, is there a caravan under the wall?"
The guards had some bad premonitions, and replied hesitantly: "Well~~ It seems to be." ”
Duke Jinjia laughed heartily and said, "Great, some of them have been earned today! How many men do we have left?"
The guards had no choice but to reply: "There are more than 400 people, and the armor and weapons are still in good condition." ”
Duke Jinjia shouted excitedly: "Give it to me!"
The guards were all puzzled: "Ah? up?~~ What? Do you want to attack the city? Lord Duke, how can this be done? If you anger the Duchy of Hereford, you will be in big trouble! Besides, do we have siege equipment, and the walls of other people are reinforced by spells. I'm going to attack like this, and I can't attack it even if I die!"
Duke Jin Jia impatiently interrupted his noisy subordinates: "Who said to attack the city, I mean to rob the caravan under the city wall!"
The guards, you look at me, I look at you, and you still feel inappropriate: "Lord Duke, when we were fighting ~~ under the city, if the defenders of the Duchy of Hereford in the city think that I want to attack them, so it is not good for us, then what should we do?"
Duke Jinjia snorted confidently and said, "Don't worry, as long as we don't attack the city wall, they won't care about things outside the city." My grandfather did this twice, and my father did it three times! I was very envious when I was a child, but unfortunately I never had the opportunity to do it. Now that the gods have put these poor fellows out the door for me to rob, how can I give up? The gods are above! I am so lucky today!"
A few cautious guards were still vigorously persuading: "But there are quite a few of them, and I think there are at least two hundred of them." If you unite and fight for your life. We're going to suffer a lot. Please think again."
Duke Jinjia smiled more confidently: "But they won't unite! It's not like you haven't pretended to be robbers to rob caravans." When have you ever seen those misers unite? You see, there were at least dozens of caravans under the walls, and they were all small caravans, only a few of them were of medium size. Look again! Each caravan was gathered in one place, and the distance between the camps was nearly 50 feet, which showed that they were also guarding against each other, fearing that their goods would be taken by someone. As long as we rush forward in a hurry, we quickly rob a few small caravans. How dare the other teams unite in a hurry? They must all stabilize their own positions! I am afraid that they will still wish that the other caravans are dead, so that they can take the opportunity to expand their business and become big and strong. ”
When he said this, many people were moved. While looking at them as "elite soldiers, knights, lords" and so on, in fact, their lives are only a little better than that of ordinary farmers, to put it bluntly, they are still well fed. And every meal is coarse bread, soybeans, and a salad that doesn't taste like a hint of chewing! A little capers is good, but a few salted duck eggs are already a "delicacy". If you can divide one or two pieces of meat during the festival, it will already be a great favor of the lord. As for the clothes and housing, it is not much better, the only difference from the farmers is that there are a little less patches on their clothes. They never had a chance to get out of that barren land, because the outside world was more dangerous! For most of them, life is to survive, to continue to live a dry life. Then, wait for the day of death. Occasionally, a few nomadic poets who can't get along with it will run out and sing a few lame and outdated old songs, and that's enough for them to relive for weeks. Some of the broken and strict garbage toys shipped out of the big city can also make them happy like children for a few days and nights. Not to mention getting rich, it is no exaggeration to say that many of them have not touched a gold coin since they were born!
And now, the tempting fortune is at hand! They are constantly looking at each other, and some of them have begun to exchange ears: "Maybe it can be as strong as one or two sets of delicate cutlery? I am tired of using those missing clay plates!***! If I can be strong enough to be a pair of silver wine glasses, I will be willing to die!"
"Maybe it's strong enough to be a good weapon, I've dreamed of having a demonic weapon all my life, even if it's a first-class demonic weapon!
"Damn, these black-hearted businessmen always bully us for not knowing the goods, and slaughter us in different ways. I don't know how much money the poor have slaughtered. Now it's not too much for us to come back with a few copper plates!"
"Last time we robbed three caravans in the middle of the night, only a dozen or so people died. Now it's night, and there are a lot of us, what are we afraid of them doing? If we are afraid, we will not have a chance to make a fortune in this life. Think about it, you have never even touched a gold coin in your life and entered the coffin, and you have lived unjustly!"
The line began to be noisy, and most of them gathered their weapons and armor, ready to rush forward to kill him!
Duke Jinjia said happily: "Pass my order, don't light the torches! I will sneak up on them in the night, and then attack suddenly!"
And Grimm here began to quarrel with Lelin again.
Grimm looked anxiously at the night sky in the distance and said to himself, "Why hasn't Master Donghezi come back yet? Is something wrong?" But with his ability, it is not easy to catch him. Did you run into someone powerful?" he said as he walked around uneasily.
Le Lin glanced at him sideways, deliberately looking at his joke: "There is no need to doubt the master's ability." Why do you care so much about him today? It's not because you're afraid of being robbed in the middle of the night? What are you afraid of, the ring on your left hand can add you a layer of armor-like mage armor, and the ring on your right hand can block you from ordinary Tier 4 arcane. It's like a turtle shell, afraid of something. ”
Grimm hurriedly looked around, and when he saw that there was no one nearby, he hurriedly approached Le Lin and whispered: "You have a small voice! These two rings are worth a lot! If someone knows, it is hard to guarantee that those mercenaries will not see the wealth! I don't have magic window magic, I can't escape in and hide from sleep!"
He grabbed Le Lin's arm again and whispered, "Don't talk about me, this jumping ring on your hand is a good thing that many thieves have been thinking about all day long." And this arcane visual ring, do you think those warriors don't want it? Let me tell you, once an experienced and intelligent warrior has this ring, he will be able to deal with low-level mages! Many people want to sell half of their family property to get one! You say so loudly, do you want to be unloaded at night? You are thought that these mercenaries are righteous men and gentlemen, and only the gods know what they have done! I've heard that some people are polite mercenaries during the day, and at night they become robbers to wipe people's necks and get double money!"
Le Lin glared at him fiercely, not because she had been refuted, but because Grimm was taking the opportunity to touch her arm, looking reluctant. It's really, it's not saved!
Le Lin looked like she was going to eat people, and shouted in a low voice: "If you don't want your hands to be chopped off, take them away immediately!"
Grimm smiled awkwardly and withdrew his hand slowly. To be honest, he hasn't touched a woman for so many days, and as an energetic young man, he really doesn't fit in. After coming to Le Lin just now, as soon as he smelled the faint and feminine atmosphere, he couldn't control it a little. With a hot head, he threw all the previous dissatisfaction and resentment out of the clouds. Suddenly, I felt that Le Lin was much more attractive than before, especially the beautiful and vigorous curves were particularly fascinating. Looking at the exposed brown forearms, I immediately want to touch the delicate skin full of elasticity and enjoy the charming touch for a moment. So he rubbed it like this,
Le Lin, who was harassed and not angry, suddenly became angry: "You said that this secret vision ring is completely used to toss the eyes! When I was in Rodriscuy City, I met those mages and priests on the bridge. It almost blinded my eyes! Besides, people can modify the magical aura on their bodies with a first-order 'magic glow', or even completely cover it. What's the use of this?"
Grimm sneered, "You can modify it if you say it's modified!" That spell seems to be only of the first order, but it's hard to use it well. Without long-term training and experience, you can't hide the magic aura, so you can only modify the effect of the aura to make it look like some other spell, so as to deceive the enemy. He snorted again and said, "If you don't know the spell, don't talk nonsense, it will make people laugh!"
Le Lin sneered angrily: "Yes." You know, you're smart. So clever that you can win with only one order of strong acid arrows every time. "It means that when killing the jackals and Palik, Grimm was the work of a strong acid arrow.
Grimm's smiling face froze immediately, and then he glared at each other angrily. The identity of a low-level mage has always been a pain in his heart, and after this series of events, it is an untouchable point of vulnerability and a source of anger in his heart. He immediately sneered: "Yes, I'm just smart! Unlike you, I pray every morning, at night, before and after meals." I said, you've been praying for so long, why didn't any of your gods give you any spells? You can't even have a level 0 'reading magic', and you're still blind!"
Le Lin drew her short sword and shouted angrily: "You are not allowed to insult my faith! If you dare to say it again, I will gouge out your tongue! Don't think that you have a good relationship with your master, you can do whatever you want with me! I have put up with you for a long time, and I don't want to put up with your dirty hands and those shitty eyes again!"
Grimm also widened his eyes, gritted his teeth and glared, and scolded even more angrily in his heart: "You stink%◎※, every time you sneer at me first, don't you allow me to return a word of respect to you? What do you think you are? A lowly slave girl! How dare you say that I am a lowly slave? I am a mage! I am a mage who will be admired by all people!
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became: Do you think I'm afraid of you? I have endured you for so long, and every day I suffer from your eyes and eat your secret losses. Today, Lao Tzu doesn't want to endure it anymore!
He was about to be angry, he was really angry! He had inherited the glorious tradition of mages, and he was silently calculating what spell he could use to clean up this dog mongrel in one fell swoop! Angry, vicious, and insidious, at this moment, he was possessed by negative feelings! He was alone and endured a long period of contempt and cold words. At this moment, his anger was more than a little, more than a little!
So he was bruised, and a voice began to sound in his head: "The smell in the gutter#※%! I think the one who wants to die is you! I will fulfill you!" He began to prepare for the leaping technique and the scorching ray, he knew that although this half-drow was not afraid of strong light, he was still more sensitive to scorching and intense fire. Because she's always far away from the campfire!
His pupils contracted viciously, and his eyes became sharper and sharper. Finally he mustered up his strength. He shouted coldly in his heart: "Go and die!"
"There's an enemy! there's an enemy!" Mackenzie's voice was like a violent axe, shattering the atmosphere that was frozen like ice!
He continued to shout: "Hurry up and line up! Don't panic! Don't panic! There are not many enemies!"
Yes, there are not many piles in front of you, but what about the long troops behind?
The Duke of Jinjia's men and horses had already rushed forward, and he looked at the mercenaries who hurriedly ran out a hundred feet (about 30 meters) away, and his heart was overjoyed. Immediately ordered the few low-level mages around him: "Take out the scrolls, magic wands, and other spell tools that you have received from the king! Immediately prepare to burst fireballs and chain lightning, as long as the other party has a mage in the air, you will immediately attack with all your strength! Be sure to deter the mages of the other caravans from intervening in the battle!"
Seeing a few mages nodding, they began to look intently at the caravan camps under the opposite city wall. The Duke looked back at the battlefield triumphantly. The first to bear the brunt was a small caravan camp, from which dozens of mercenaries hurriedly ran out, led by the appearance of an arcane spearhead, and his demeanor was quite calm. But it's useless for a person to be calm! They can't even line up the most basic formation, how can they resist the large crowd of soldiers on their side?
Then he saw a mage rise up behind the camp. This guy instinctively blessed himself with a flying technique, and pulled up rapidly, trying to quickly get out of the dangerous ground and quickly rise high into the air. Move away from the range of a normal bow and arrow, and then attack with ranged spells. Of course, at his level, there is only one long-range spell available, "Burst Fireball".
The duke's face was filled with a smile of victory. He has seen this tactic a lot, mages encounter a sneak attack, the first time they will fly out of the range of the bow and arrow, or teleport themselves to a distant place, and then put on a variety of protective spells, such as protective arrows, mage shields, hazy spells, flashes or something, and then use long-range attack spells to fire. This is almost instinctive for most mages. But now, this instinct is going to kill him! The duke waved his hand, and several mages around him immediately sent out a series of lightning bolts!
With a pop, the newly emerging mage burst into a loud noise that shook the city walls and a dazzling flash of lightning like the sun! Countless fragments burst out of the bombed cars and goods, and more than a dozen people screamed and flew to the ground without saying a word.
The mage fell headlong with black smoke billowing - he was blasted into real charcoal by several powerful and extremely effective spells in that instant!
The Duke laughed violently, and looked at which mage would dare to come out! Hahaha Hahaha~~
The Duke's soldiers had rushed to the front of the messy Mackenzie. The sound of killing was like a big wave in the river, and it resounded through the cold night sky.
Grimm stared at the "humanoid coke" on the ground in amazement, a formal mage, a mage with a third-order arcane art, and it was finished in the blink of an eye! Even the bones turned into this miserable black mush. This made ordinary Grimm's heart tremble—death was so terrible! If he had really done it with Lelin just now, would she have cut off his neck with a sword? Just like this corpse, he fell straight to the ground, and then a large expanse of blood spurted out from his neck, staining the dusty land red?
Yes, it's really possible! She now has a jumping ring to help, if she finds out that I have murderous intentions, she can easily jump over a distance of 3 or 40 feet (about 13 meters), and fly and slash the enemy! Also, she is also wearing a power ring now, and the strength of her arms is about as strong as a person's thigh, she is really going to cut it over, and my low-level mage shield and mage armor can't stop it! It is likely that she will be stabbed through the heart with a sword~~
Thinking of this, his heart was cold. After trembling for a while, he saw that Lelin, like a light falcon flying across the ground, had rushed to Mackenzie's side in the blink of an eye, fearlessly facing the regular army rushing towards him like a tidal wave.
He shuddered again.
The Duke's soldiers slammed into the mercenaries in a loose formation like a pine embankment like a big wave, and in an instant the team was about to collapse!
But a vigorous figure is like a dolphin in the waves, shuttling in and out of the crowd on both sides, sometimes disappearing and sometimes appearing. Everywhere he went, screams and blood splatters rang out. Severed limbs and blood splattered like waves, and heartfelt screams were as loud as the crash of the waves. The "wave" seemed to have encountered an invisible wall, and it retreated on its own.
For a while, blood waves were flying.
