The Experimental Log of the Crazy Lich Chapter 147: Overture
In the eyes of most humans, the Beastfolk plateau is a magical desert, but for the defenders in the north, this statement is obviously far from the real situation. In their eyes, shaman of Beastfolk and witch doctors Very headache spellcasting profession.
The former is good at communicating with the spirit of the elements, triggering various natural phenomena to launch powerful attacks, or giving auxiliary support to their peers. Their spell consumption is small and the effect is obvious. In some aspects, the attack ability is not inferior to Mage. It will not be much worse than the priest and Holy Knight.
Moreover, because shaman is good at cooperating with partners, it still has a unique advantage in guiding strategic magic. That earthquake is simply the only big killer of Beastfolk siege.
But on the other hand, as a short-leg crispy legal profession with a huge threat and not as many life-saving spells as Mage, if shaman is caught by powerful melee ...
"We can give him ten seconds to ask Mother Earth for protection, pull out his weapon in five seconds, make unnecessary resistance or chanting in three seconds, and then use the last second to reach him."
"Fourteen shamans are killed every minute! Please don't kill shaman randomly, and support the shaman Earth Drift Spell (Random Teleportation) Instant Act! And support the cancellation of shaman occupation!-shaman Self-Rescue Foundation. "
The obvious shortcomings of the combat power of the bill of lading and the messy criticisms, shaman can be regarded as the first target in the battle, but it shows his powerful auxiliary and long-range attack capabilities. These are exactly the Beastfolk family who are good at hand-to-hand combat. insufficient.
And if shaman is the best battlefield combination for Beastfolk fighters, then witch doctors are the strongest logistical profession. They are good at configuring poison and antidote, and they are good at all kinds of curse and hex. But also good at expelling curses and healing patients.
Although their therapy is somewhat outrageous, after all, whether it is cold or cold or dizziness and brain swelling, it is really frightening to use bloodletting therapy, although most of the medicines they prepare do not even know what is in them (among them Most of them have unexplained materials such as dried lizard powder and dark grass roots), but they have indeed saved a lot of lives in plateau areas lacking medicine and medicine. (The loser already hangs up. The dead cannot naturally complain.)
Spellcasting classes are always scarce, especially for the Beastfolk tribe.
For the Beastfolk family, which specializes in muscular warriors, it is difficult to find a good-thinking tribe, not to mention the need for casting talents. In each tribe, these two casting professions are extremely rare and valuable. shaman and witch doctors have a high status in the Beastfolk tribe, and there are also a few serving as chiefs.
But at this time, the precious shaman and the witch doctor became handymen, looking up and down the altar, and the angry onlookers even started to whip them with a leather whip.
"Damn! You are so careful, why is there a problem."
The blood axe tribe's Eamon Bloodaxe is iron-faced. The sacrifice ceremony is hosted by his own tribe. Most of the elite shaman and witch doctors of the blood axe tribe have invested in it. The sacrifice used is countless, but it is still the result in the end, how can it be discouraging.
Did it fail? No, it's not, at least the little orange-red brilliance around the soldiers bringing warm fire is proof.
Did you succeed? Not even more. The sheer frowns and troubled faces of the chiefs already illustrate everything, at least the results are far less than expected.
"Sir, the result has come. The blessing should be considered a success. It can indeed play a role in resisting the cold, but ..."
Even though the old shaman reported so, everyone did not relax because the brilliant flame was suddenly interrupted at the crucial moment of the ceremony. The Demon monarch Wrath's accusations echoed in everyone's ears.
"Such a sacrifice sacrifice even wants my blessing! A false soul is on my altar? You are blasphemy. You are challenging my dignity! I curse you, curse you are about to step into destruction, How dare to deceive Demon ....... "
I found that there was a problem with offering his own sacrifice. The angry Marquis of Demon immediately dropped his anger, and the huge flame turned into a flame colossus holding a Wrath halberd. Began to bring destruction in the camp, and the open door of Demon further indicates that the Demon army is about to arrive.
Fortunately, the old shaman who presided over the ceremony at the time cut off the connection with the Demon abyss in time, allowing the flame of the Marquis to return to the element, and let the dimension be closed again, otherwise it is definitely not a blessing to fail. The entire camp will be destroyed by the Demon Marquis of Wrath.
It's all like that, and the ceremony didn't fail, all the chiefs showed surprise expressions.
"Huh? Blessings haven't failed?"
Emon is even more surprised. However, he knows that Eliza is not easy to deal with. He originally prepared for already to fail completely.
"The effect of the blessing is not complete, and it can only play a short-term cold protection effect. From the rule of the element to vanish, I am afraid that the blessing will be to vanish for up to thirty days."
I heard that all the chiefs were relieved. When the ceremony failed, everyone made the worst plan, although the three-month blessing was originally expected to be less than one month. This already Much better than the original worst plan.
"Is the matter of the sacrifice clear? In the end, that tribe dared to cheat at this critical moment! I will hang his chief's head on the flagpole to sacrifice the flag!"
Emon is very angry. I almost missed this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and offended a Demon monarch. I will have trouble in the future.
Demon is a well-known waiter. They do n’t find anything, it ’s hard to get them. If they want to contribute, in addition to serving them well, they also have to pay an expensive “appearance fee”.
The strongest currency of the lower realm is the soul of the upper realm. In order to please the Marquis of the Sea of Fire, this sacrifice is the best slave of each tribe.
The ritual will not fail for no reason. Demon is famous for being moody, but he is famous for disdain to lie and cheat (seeing the unpleasant people directly, and starting to grab any treasures), since Demon Howling because of the dissatisfaction with the offerings, so many of them are really problematic.
"This ....." The old shaman of the turtle clan was a little hesitant, but watching the chiefs looked suspiciously at themselves, knowing that it would not work, and finally they could only bite their teeth and say.
"The sacrifices already are all consumed, but the blessings are not complete. If the soul share of the sacrifices is not enough, it will not be able to explain some of the lost power. The sacrifices already are gone, which cannot be checked at all, but It's time for Lord Eliza to get angry ... just when the sacrifices of the Bloodaxe Horde are sacrificed!
At the moment, Emmon questioned shaman, who was still angrily. Is something wrong with his tribe?
The surrounding chiefs saw unfriendly eyes in Emmon's eyes, and they also remembered that the direction of the flame colossus roaring was not in the residence of the Bloodaxe Horde? Emmon also said so surely, wasn't this a typical thief shouting to catch a thief.
Unconsciously, the seed of discord, already, was buried. Most of the united tribes still rely on prestige. Successive failures are undoubtedly the biggest blow to Emen's prestige. In the eyes of a caring person, Emon already has begun to lose his status as a great chieftain, and perhaps he can replace it.
For the time being, regardless of what appears to be peaceful, in fact the chiefs who must be unpredictable, in fact, after a short sacrifice is interrupted, a certain Willpower has actually arrived. Some of the real sacrifices were detained by him and used for other purposes.
At this time, the altar was as chaotic as already, and in that sacrifice, a fiery red shadow was moving from illusion to reality.
She smelled the icy air that finally did not have the smell of sulfur, her familiar pretty face showed a smile, just like the Storm Queen incarnation of the rain capital, the silver-haired female Demon secretly came to the world in the form of an avatar.
"Master. Do you miss me? Are you ready to meet me? But I said it would strike suddenly."
-----------
When large-scale air battles have not yet become possible, the most indispensable part of ground warfare is terrain advantage.
The tears of Camo, the former site of the former Westland Steel Fortress was rebuilt. This super fortress is on both sides of the Jedi. The thick walls are covered with expensive magic alloys. The moat is made of special Alchemy non-freezing oil. As long as it is ignited, the fire will burn for more than two months before the reserve oil in the ditch of the fortress is exhausted.
The city gathers one-third of the entire Siluweir ’s military strength, and more than 40% of its releasers. There are nine large Mage Towers and more than thirty medium Mage Towers. The heavy artillery and fire crossbow on the wall facing the Beastfolk Xiakou are more people's fears of intensive phobia. After more than two hundred years of painstaking management, they have become There are several strong cities on the mainland.
As he who does not fall into the fort. It has been locked firmly for hundreds of years. It is said that its establishment was also supported by the northern countries and human superpowers.
Since he built it, the wall that even the giants ca n’t climb has become a confidant of the Beastfolk plateau, and the Beastfolk lacking siege equipment does not have a way to take it. It depends on only a few flying races and air cavalry. The fortress of this size is simply a dream, even the United Chiefs who had been Beastfolk died under the city.
But let me say it was a wrong decision from the beginning.
"Is there a fortress that will never fall in this world? Are you able to defend your regular forces against the assassination and curse bombing of top powerhouses? Putting all your resources in one basket is a wrong decision. Even if your fortress is indestructible, I just need to bypass you. Even if there is no ready-made road, is it enough to open up a new road? "
The Macedonian defense line already on the earth proves how foolish this immovable fixed defense line is, but in this world, pan-continental military academies still regard fortification defense as a classic conventional tactic, and Siluweir is also a practitioner of fortressism. And beneficiaries, and after this lesson, it is estimated that all military schools will regard this war as an important research case-a stupid negative case of too superstitious and strong fortifications.
This time, the commerce and trade agreement that Siluweir just signed less than a month ago was torn up instantly. The Beastfolk comes without warning and fiercely abnormal.
Earth Elemental God Erd Doroken is much more low-key than his colleagues. He just changed the terrain with a local high-intensity earthquake, leaving the plateau with a long and narrow exit, and making that strong fortress into the eyes of a caveman— Furnishings.
The Beastfolk army directly impacted the hinterland of the Siluweir kingdom, and then came to a center to bloom, divided into four armies and attacked each city. Among them, the blood axe tribe took nearly half of the tribe to the Siluweir's capital, Antun.
In order to create more chaos and contain the power of each lord, more than a hundred wolves and cavalry corps began to run and attack. Under the situation of everyone's self-danger, each lord naturally possessed his own weight and could not start the war. One month, Antoine rushed on already. Siluweir finished faster than anyone expected.
At this time, I was helpless.
It's not that I don't want to do anything, it's just that the first snowfall of East Mist Communal Country is coming. Even if it had been expected, it was still not the time. At this moment, there is too much to do, and it is undoubtedly the most unsuitable time for snow.
The winter in the North is extremely fierce. The snow already covering the entire Difende outside the window, stepping out is half a meter deep snow, and no pedestrians can be seen on the street.
Going out in this weather is a disaster. Not to mention marching, horses will fall into the snow as soon as they go out, and the rapid loss of temperature will inexplicably kill precious warhorses.
According to the hidden rules that have gradually formed over the years in the Northland, when a country is attacked by foreigners such as Beastfolk, other countries will give certain assistance or material support. Or simply send troops for assistance. In the past years, it was often the Principality of Kasomi that enjoyed this treatment, but this year it is undoubtedly the Siluweir.
But unfortunately, this heavy snow that affected most northern countries changed all this.
The supplies cannot be delivered, the reinforcements are blocked on the road, but the Beastfolks are attacking the city in the snow, which is a desperate situation.
The cruel natural environment is fair to the enemy. The days of heavy snow closure in previous years are also a customary truce day. After all, it is a wish for the soldiers to die in the battlefield. How can they feel wronged when they freeze to death? This meaningless death always makes people want to curse. Greetings to the commander's family.
Fortunately, with the blessing of Vulcan ahead of time, to vanish again, Beastfolk were also forced to start shrinking their areas of activity, using already as a resident, slowing down the speed of the strategy.
In fact, even without the Eliza blessing of Vulcan, this war broke out early
And in another way. When the name of Eliza was repeatedly scolded by high-ranking Beastfolk, Emon and his blood axe tribe also suffered grievances and Wrath. At the same time that their reputation plummeted, they also began to be marginalized by the coalition main force.
In a sense, the Beastfolk coalition is divided into four. The division of troops is not only a strategic consideration, but it also shows that Emmen already, who is not enough prestige, cannot grasp the situation.
At this moment, the other three chiefs have their own tribe around them. I am afraid who will be the future Beastfolk emperor, depending on the results of this war.
Everyone knows that it is impossible for the war to wait until next spring, and the human nations cannot see Anthune fall like this, and Siluweir is so extinct. When the snow stops, as long as the army can touch it, I am afraid that the war will start. Time.
Because of the war in the North, it still involves a war of racial survival. This war is bound to be brutal, and non-combat reductions are not a minority.
At this time, I was also busy with military affairs.
"Are news from Hoyle? How is the prospecting progress?"
Each Grey Dwarf is a naturally good miner. Their talents are stone walking and gem perception in the underground. Hoyle, master of the Grey Dwarf blacksmith, is not comparable to other people's acuity.
Whether it is foreign trade or domestic military use, the demand for minerals from the new East Mist is endless, especially when many new regiments are still holding wooden training weapons, a large number of military weapons will be the rise of East Mist The root of weapons, but weapons must start with minerals.
This is simply the future lifeline of East Mist. Even now the war breaks out, I still take it as a top priority.
While I returned to Defend ahead of time due to the war, I threw Hoyle and other Grey Dwarf blacksmiths to the barbarian's site to explore. If he could not find the mining area, the miner of human would not have to count.
"Good news, that mountain range really is a rich mining area. already has found two fine iron, one magic iron, and two gem mining areas. But if it is to be mined, it will not be a short-term problem. Hoy Lord Seoul applied for the help of heavy machinery and the caster, and he also named Beyar brothers to help him. "
"Do you blast mines? It seems to be the only way to achieve short-term results. Okay, the Beyar brothers sent him to help him, but he was required to pay attention to safety and don't conflict with the local barbarians. They all confess to death, and offending once is equal Offended a lifetime. "
"Yes, Your Highness, we will tell you. Then, the next priority is about the banner and banner of the new army ..."
The assistants searched back and forth, the accumulated military already crushed the desk, and countless troubles came one by one.
Even if I have no intention of interfering in government affairs, military affairs alone can cause headaches.
Every time I miss the Eliza, after all, other people can only play a supporting role at most, but the Eliza that I bring with me is not inferior to my processing ability, and I can completely lose all the trouble Lazy herself.
Okay, Eliza is still in the abyss. Consider these meaningless, let's focus on the troubles in front of you.
"The situation in Antun is very bad. I am afraid that the city may break at any time ...."
After all, they are born from the same source. Even though the country mentioned earlier was full of dissatisfaction and unhappiness, this young assistant was a little upset when he saw him fall.
I nodded and motioned to the other side to know, but I was lost in thought.
Rescue is definitely to be rescued. Even if there are many dissatisfaction with the royal family, I still ca n’t do it if the people of Lan who sit on the same source are slaughtered, and once Siluweir completely falls, I am afraid that they will be involved in a direct war. Mostly there are East Mist, and East Mist is obviously not ready to deal with the all-out war now.
Although rescue is definitely needed, how to save it is important. It must play a role in gaining face among the nations and winning the initiative in the future of Northland diplomacy. Not ample East Mist family.
After a long time, I finally made my decision.
"Send Anthune a letter. If the East Mist as a neutral country wants to participate in the war, they must use sufficient and sufficient reasons for them to actively and openly ask for help. By the way, they must also apply to the churches of the gods. It is our request to send troops to help them resist aggression, so that Wumianzhe (The Indefatigable One) talents will recognize the necessity and justice of this war, and we will be able to send troops. "
"Did you not say that I was a fake? Not long ago, I accused East Mist of fraud and deception, and announced to all kingdoms and churches. I will see how you swelled your face. Well, the previous public Let all nations understand the new system of East Mist, and the latter paragraph will be directly thrown to that Femr Casso 'His Majesty the King.'
Since you want me to help, I bow my head and reflect, first spraying out the previous. I'll eat it for myself!
I'm not at all worried that Femmel won't bow his head. After all, Anthune's current situation already is very bad. In front of life, many people will become more honest.
"Huh, it ’s a wonderful irony. I just said I was a fake, and now I turned to the fake for help. Most of the shots came from the" Demon Corps "in their mouth."
Slightly think, under the existing conditions, the main force that is most suitable for rescue is still my undead army that is not afraid of the cold. In the previous announcement, the guys used the Demon army to call it directly. His weakness and contempt are unabashed.
"Such a good winter hunting opportunity can't be wasted, just for training. Each knight brought me two obediences, so that those guys are ready, and we will start when the snow stops!"
