The Amber Sword: Act 15 The Battle for the Lumberyard (2)
The fifteenth battle of the logging field (two)
already passed nearly an hour after entering the forest.
The sound of bows and arrows came from the forest, and soon mercenaries cheered and swept a few dead bodies out of the grass. -- The big yellowish creature covered with tumors, their heads were like a Huge malignant tumors, invisible nostrils and eyes from the smooth surface, are like lack of features. But there are thousands of olfactory and auditory organs hidden under the skin folds, so that they can be hundreds of times more sensitive than humans in the dark or even dark Underground environment. -- but mercenaries immediately found that these creature already died, and arrow(s) only caused surface injuries to them. , But each of these Troglodyte chests has a fatal wound.
Some injuries are from back to front, and some are from front to back. As if someone was stabbing a big hole with a thunder in the chest, a few Mercenarys recognized this special wound made by 'Dragon cavalry', they turned over those disgusting creatures, and looked back in awe as the rider slowly walked away Come over youngster.
Brando condescended to watch these Troglodytes like sharks open their mouths full of fine teeth, and the blood flowing from the corners of their mouths is pale green, which is different from warm blood creature on the ground. -- These are in tall ridge The creature living at the bottom of the root is actually a kind of lizard. If it can, Brando is more willing to encircle these thievess from the underground world in winter. According to the convention, they will definitely shrink their range of activity in the cold season. However, it is a pity that he is not allowed to do so in an urgent time. Besides, the weather already is gradually getting colder, which is not the best but at least not the worst. Under his instructions, Mercenary fiddled with the long-dead Troglodyte of already, letting him see the stiff claws of this monster holding on to the spear already.
"It is the lower existence in the Troglodyte society," Tiger Sparrow looked at the corpses and replied: "It seems that they leave their elites in the inner circle of the line of defense. The more we go inward, the greater the resistance we encounter."
Brando nodded, but he did not say that this was actually good news. creature level gradually increased from the outside to the inside. In the past Amber Sword, this was a more natural monster distribution situation, just like most traditional game. This shows that these Troglodyte have not yet formed a complete Military Knowledge. Simply put, they are not an army, but a Troglodyte settlement formed by a tribe or some other way.
One of the conditions he was most worried about before the attack was that the Troglodyte entrenched in the Bearfolk forest was a Military Knowledge of Troglodyte that only came from the underground world to the surface world. It may be a large tribe or even dungeon city surface invasion Part of the plan, this is not uncommon in Vaunde. Sometimes the residents of Underground will also spy on the resources of the world above ground. Although the underground resources are much richer, the survival of the fittest is also more cruel. Another possibility is that this Troglodyte army suffered a defeat in the underground world and then fled to the ground world to survive, but either one is better than a loose tribe.
A ordinary mobs object area.
Brando characterizes the Troglodyte in this forest. The corpses they have identified so far are the lower Troglodyte serving as the scout at the outer periphery, and then there may also be Troglodyte warrior and 'Kamuru', the latter meaning which means 'Warrior' in the underground language. Players call them Elite Troglodyte in the past, they are characters such as NCO, and they have the strength of Black Iron. It can be said that in addition to priest, it is the strongest combat effectiveness of Troglodyte.
But it's not too scary for him.
mercenaries quickly sifted through the area like Zhang Wang. A total of more than 20 corpses were found, which is consistent with the experience obtained by Brando. These corpses showed that the attacked cave dwellers were too late to respond. Under the attack of the Silver rank force, their lives were burned in an instant. Wind Spider Spirits comes from the end of the wind Elemental Plane -- storm. Although its strength is not as good as Black Iron, its ability to control airflow is unparalleled. It is undoubtedly a natural opponent for Troglodyte that relies on smell and hearing to distinguish danger.
Then the eyes distributed around the forest were removed one by one. Brando and his Jutta, Fern and Kalun three Head Commander led hundreds of Mercenary. The march in this jungle went beyond imagination -- hundreds The warrior carefully proceeded along the quiet forests in the afternoon. They stepped on those bright green ferns and made a rustling sound. Some people even accidentally stepped on the dead branch 'kā chā'. chestnut. Fortunately, when warriors nervously raises head, -- only saw some unnamed birds flying from the forest with wings flapping.
But compared to warrior and Swordsman, the Magician protected in the crowd is even more incredible. According to usual practice, they must be the first target of those cold guns and secret arrows. -- Anyone understands the importance of a Magician on the battlefield. However, for these spellcaster, who have the highest official wizard status, and even most of them are apprentices, their Defense capabilities are disproportionate to the value they show on the battlefield, as if they themselves understand that they are scout One of my favorite goals.
Another target is Commander in the army, but it is often not as easy as lower-level spellcaster.
Thus these Mercenary Magician already are used to being attacked; raids, sneak attacks, cold arrows, especially in jungle battles. This is a common occurrence. Everyone has almost been injured, and many companions have died of such attacks. In front of me, even I myself have experienced it on the edge of life and death. But all this is nothing compared with the weirdness encountered today. Among those rumors, Troglodyte's scout seems to disappear, and watching the sunlight after noon sprinkle through the gap between the leaves in this quiet forest In the meantime, these Magician people even wonder if this is a lie on public expense tourism or something else?
But of course not, they all saw the bodies of Troglodyte before.
All of this can only be attributed to the young Lord Thane's magic, and there are rumors that he is a high rank Summoner, which may even exceed the limit between gold and silver. However, for wizard, since this mysterious skill was taught to mortals by Silver Lineage, respect for the strong has been already has become a deep-rooted habit -- Moreover, his men also have Ciel, wizard of the two Gold rank was included in Mercenary Magician are privately called duo Council. Because in the habit of Magesmith Buga people, wizard Council symbolizes the power of authority and leader --, so Brando's prestige was established between these spellcaster unknowingly.
But when Brando watched those mercenarys carrying long swords, war halberds or longbow, shields and holding magic staff habitually dispersed into one by one squads, they had nothing to accomplish in their hearts. Feeling at all. Although the results of Wind Spider Spirits are amazing, but all of this is not without cost. He is silently calculating the consumption of spell: already has passed an hour since entering the forest. It is only consumed to maintain Holy Sword Card and an attack charge. 13 points Earth Element. He checked the one's own element reserve. At this moment, the Earth Element Pool with a capacity of 32 cells was already empty, and 7 cells were left.
Brando frowned, and immediately sent someone to call the guide over.
The ragged man came to him, and raises head saw youngster's face was not very good, and thought he had done something wrong that caused the other party to be unhappy, and asked a little uneasily, "Master, what's the matter?" Right? "
"How long is it?" Brando asked slightly anxiously. In five minutes, he must give up paying the next maintenance fee and return Holy Sword Card to one's own Library, because he must reserve the cost of displaying the card again, and the real battle will be left in the night or even in the early morning.
As soon as the guide hears, sighed in relief first: "Coming soon, sir, you can see the forest by bypassing it. The sawmill is built in a river valley, I am --." A cooing tweet, this is a predetermined signal, Brando raises head immediately saw the Mercenary in front stopped and crouched on the spot. And he saw those warrior on the edge of the forest looking back in this direction, and then gave him a gesture.
Brando recognized the gesture -- and found the enemy.
However, Wind Spider Spirits has not responded, and experience prompts have not been generated, which indicates that the number of enemies may be quite large. The Dragon cavalry system can not achieve a one-hit kill -- and therefore dormant according to his second order. Brando froze slightly, immediately rolled over and walked in that direction. After seeing one's own Lord Thane dismount, the following three Jutta, Fern, and Kalun each took a look and climbed down the horse and followed, then Tiger Sparrow, Scarlett, and Romaine. As for the last Merchant Young Lady, there was no care in the eyes, but it was full. Careful curiosity.
The woods became thinner, and Brando soon reached the edge of the woodland.
"Master!" The Mercenary immediately shouted respectfully when he noticed that Brando was approaching. He glanced back and saw his past Commander Kalun nodded to himself.
Brando did not say a word , The woods formed a **** in front, and the valley was mentioned in the guide below the **** -- Fir City Logging site built by the river. Originally there was only a clearing, a few wooden houses, and a larger sawmill room, but now it is clear already Changed a look, Troglodyte Where will it be converted into a fort. They run along with stones and wood river bank Barricades were built, and watchtowers were piled up. Crypts piled up with earth and stones behind the walls were faintly visible Brando I clicked the quantity and concluded that there are probably more than two hundred here. Troglodyte live.
"So many, it's tricky." The red-haired female mercenary commander looked behind, frowned. She looked at Brando, for fear that the latter would order them to attack aggressively.
But Brando looked at several teams Troglodyte patrolling along river bank. Each team was led by a Troglodyte with dark red skin. Those are Muruk. If they rush into attacking the opponent, they may shrink into the fortress, wasting the advantage of the raid. He looked back at Amandina and Tiger Sparrow and replied, "What do you think?"
"Let's use our old method of Mercenary." Tiger Sparrow replied.
"Old way?"
Brando raises head。
