The Amber Sword: Act 84 Into the Night iv


Time goes back to half an hour ago.

Compared with the turmoil in Greystone town, the nearby hills are quiet. On top of the hill where Aouine envoys are located, everyone stays quietly in the pine forest. No one dares to ignite a fire because of the fear of Harpy circled in the sky, What extraordinary actions were made, even the words had to be whispered -- everyone was waiting for the sky to completely darken.

But before that, time has become extra boring and long. Some people are whispering, some people are keeping Stamina in dry food, and four inner court Knight in the woodland are discussing about North Mountain sentry. Romaine is telling a story with Archduke of Golan-Elsen's Xiao Qianjin, who looks at miss merchant with admiration. The former has a special ability to talk about what has not happened. She is talking about her business group, hanging on a cloud pile. A merchant ship with the same giant sail crosses the glittering sea, and walks along the channel to the prosperous harbor, the wilderness area, the latent beasts in the distant sea, the storms bred on the sea, the strange fish and the miracle rare in life, although she I have never been to those places, but as if I have seen them, I am seduced and fascinating. Soon other people gathered around her. Brando saw three Romaine's loyal listeners, Sugar Bowl, Delfhyr and Scippamira, and then joined Kiara and Princess Magdelle.

Duke is counting the stars with Ynead. The Vaunde's strange starry sky always shines from east to west, flashes. The night sky is like a black cloth sprinkled with gems, shining, a long river already with faint stars. Emerging as if to announce the final advent of the night. But after the stars and the moon's rays converged, the woodland became brighter outside, and the valley covered by Yinhua glowed a faint light at night.

Before the night fell, Brando has been asking Cooper about the situation in Greystone town. The latter also wants to highlight the encirclement by night, but suffers from the strict precautions in Greystone town, not to mention the Harpy in the sky. There is no way. He didn't know much about the current situation in Greystone town. Brando could only answer a few questions vaguely when asked, but as a local noble, he knew very well about Greystone town itself. Where is bazaar and where are open streets, He knew everything where there were barracks and towers, and where Holy Cathedral was, and he could draw a simple map.

Brando asked in great detail, which made Cooper very confused, and could not help asking: "Lord Count, are you really sure to win Greystone town?"

"It's hard to say, you won't know everything until after night," Brando replied.

"Lord Count, the Gorgon Ravine troops stationed in Greystone town are not weaker than us. They also have defensive advantages. The individual combat effectiveness of Harpy and Troglodyte is also stronger than those of our Swordsman and Lancer. -- is of course a bit, maybe not as good as yours. Army, but according to my observation, there aren't many guards you bring with you, right? "Cooper asked carefully.

In Aouine, especially in the southern region, noble Lancer is at most equivalent to rank 1 troop type, and even the average level is not as good as the local infantry Swordsman, Lancer of legion, but the level of Kirrlutz, noble private soldiers is still slightly stronger, and can be compared with the Aouine's one or two line legion Swordsman is flush. They belong to rank 2 troop type like Troglodyte. However, there are also strong and weak points in the same order of troop type. Troglodyte belongs to the middle and upper level in rank 2 troop type. Kirrlutz noble Lancer and Swordsman can at best be considered to be on the side of rank 2 troop type. The human army is in Discipline is slightly better, but it is too bad in individual combat effectiveness. Disciplinary advantages often show obvious advantages in large legion battles, but in small-scale battles, in assaults, personal strength is Can determine the outcome of a battle.

Not to mention that Gorgon Ravine also has Harpy and Razorback, that is the third-order creature of genuine. If there is one or two lair Thane or Minotaur in the town, it would be a disaster for these regional nobles troops.

The clan Shadel Troglodyte is not very powerful in the underground of Gorgon Ravine, but it is also equivalent to Kirrlutzian in the same size. legion, such as those Thane familiar with Brando in history, such as Turlock, 'Blind King' Shattuk or 'Beastmaster 'Silica, their army also had a battle against God ’s domestic border legion. As for the existence like Gerat and Medusa Empress, if they go all out, even the frontline legion of the empire may not be able to control it alone.

"What do you think the Jazz should do?" Brando asked.

"I think we should find a way to get around ... we have few people, and they may not be able to find them from the hills." Cooper thought for a moment, and replied slowly, as if even he felt that his suggestion was not so reliable. . Brando heard a smile and shook his head gently. It is impossible for one or two thousand people to march in the hills without being discovered, let alone one or two thousand. Even if one or two hundred people move, the dense shade will be. It can't be covered, unless everyone is scattered into the hills, but how much Space and how long does it take? We don't have this time now.

If Greystone town's defenders are not resolved, we cannot leave this place safely.

"Ah," Cooper sighed, a little desperate: "Is could it be that necessary to fight, is there any other way?"

Brando saw that he seemed to be frightened by the Gorgon Ravine and could only comfort him with two sentences: "Sir Cooper, Greystone town is not as difficult to conquer as you think."

Cooper Only when it was comfort, he nodded, glanced down the valley in a dizzy direction.

Halutz passed through the dark forest and seemed to be attracted by the light from the outside. He held out a pine tree with his hands and labored out. Finally, he saw Lasmeque at the edge of the forest, and Medusa stood on the edge of the bush. , Staring at the bare white cliff stone under Yuehua. But Little Prince saw the place flush with the line of sight of the rock. It was the shadow of the valley in the valley. The place was called Greystone town. The teacher told him so. Geographically, there was an exit from the valley, but he knew that at the moment. The town was occupied by some special enemies.

"Is that your compatriot, Lasmeque sister?" He asked behind Medusa, whispering.

"Isn't that compatriot?" Lasmeque heard Little Prince's voice and answered.

Halutz looked at her puzzledly.

Lasmeque looked back at His Highness Little Prince. The amber-colored pupils had a gentle meaning inside: "Little cute, Gorgon Ravine in human language is actually a geographical term, not a country. Or a piece of territory, the real Gorgon Ravine is actually divided into three layers of high, mid, low, each of which is very different. The ruler of the shallowest layer is the dwarf, the middle layer is the Gorgon Ravine that you are familiar with, and the bottom layer is Dark Elf. The kingdom, further down, is a river flowing with magma and sulfur. In the dark underground world, there are thousands of different ethnic groups. They never have the concept of a country. Even the most powerful Thane often only rules. A city and a territory, smaller tribes are attached to Thane life, since history, everyone has fought and opposed each other.

Speaking, she sighed one breath, Halutz faintly felt that she probably shouldn't bring up these things, so she stopped questioning.

After sending away Cooper, Brando watched this scene by the woodland far away when returning to Nemesis.

"That Medusa?" he asked back.

"Her Highness the Princess promised to protect her, and His Highness Little Prince seemed to like her very much." Nemesis replied, but didn't look over there, as if he didn't care about it at all.

"No problem?"

"It's not a big problem, don't forget that she came with the devil."

Brando nodded. In the lower and middle layers of Gorgon Ravine, the aborigines are vengeful with the devil, but there are also a small number of people who have to serve the devil. They are slaves of the devil. With this background, it was her again. Sending Little Prince back in person, so Gryphine believes she is not without reason.

There was a moment of silence between the two, silently watching the direction of the valley, and the wind blowing from the hills was rubbing the entire pine forest on top of them, banging.

"It's getting darker and earlier," Nemesis said suddenly.

"Because already is going to be late winter."

Nemesis glanced at him: "The direction of the meteor fall is near the North Mountain sentry post."

"A lot of witnesses can testify to this by the testimony of most people, but most of them don't believe it is true, they generally think it is trick of Gorgon Ravine."

"Troglodytes is looking for it."

Brando nodded. Although most people thought that they were heading for Orkens Count, in fact he had the answer in his mind.

Nemesis looked at him quietly with a quiet blue orchid look: "Will it be that thing?"

"I'll know soon."

"So confident? But the jazz man is very skeptical that you can take it here." Nemesis thought of the face of Cooper and couldn't help but raise his mouth, but unfortunately Brando didn't notice it. He also listened to it. With a smile: "What exactly is going on, could it be that, you still don't know. Although famous people have emerged in this era, 'we' also have our one's own means."

"Do you want to say 'Player'?"

Brando doesn't want to answer this question lightly. He has been thinking about it all these days: Does history tend to happen or change, and if it is the latter, what are the opportunities?

The night is getting deeper and deeper.

It is obviously unrealistic to be close to Greystone town under the eyelids of Harpy before the sky is dark. These monster eyesight is comparable to their distant relatives on the surface. In fact, do n’t talk about the valley, just walk out The cover of dense treetop may be followed by them. As the reconnaissance troop type in the flying unit, Harpy is also at the top of the entire Vaunde. In terms of reconnaissance ability, even Buga's Gargoyle are slightly inferior to them, but they are very fragile and used to be between underground rock formations. Leaping and short wings have insufficient climbing ability in the air, which makes them very uncompetitive in the sky fights.

But it is also a delusion to get close to Greystone town after nightfall. Harpy is creature in the dark. In fact, their vision at night is stronger than during the day, because they have slight light blindness, which makes them very difficult to adapt to the surface. The day of the world.

According to Ciel's, the only way to get close to Greystone town silently is if everyone can learn stealth -- if you can find so many wizard to perform spell for more than 1,000 people hidden in the mountains.

It seems like the only way to attack.

But players are particularly good at such small-scale unconventional battles, so the choice of Brando and Nemesis is usually less troublesome.

When the hour hand on Sir Cooper ’s silver pocket watch crossed the twelve mark, there seemed to be a breeze in the forest. A small team Gargoyle was taking off from the woodland on the top of the mountain, but from above the forest, only black The lacquered treetop shook slightly, and the branches seemed to be slightly sunk by the falling air. A total of seven or eight invisible air waves swept across treetop, and then disappeared.

Under treetop, wizards wearing robe is watching Gargoyle stealthed by blessed/buffed stealth spell, and there are a second batch of Gargoyle waiting to take off. These Gargoyle stand like a statue in the woodland when not activated. In the meantime, the wings that were raised almost exceeded the height of the treetops. These are the first batch of Gargoyle backups. If you can, everyone present here sincerely hopes to be successful at one time. Do not use these supplies.

And by night, as if there were Marsha standing on their side, the plan went much smoother than expected.

Eight-headed Gargoyles climbed into the night sky and started to climb. They quickly flew into the clouds and came to the tops of those Harpys over Greystone town. Yuehua poured on the clouds and passed through the veil. Looking down the gap of clouds and fog, you can clearly observe the four black spots flying in circles. Harpy didn't foresee the danger approaching at all. They were hovering in pairs in mid-air, watching the vast earth with sharp eyes. In their field of vision, the mountains and hills gathered by the east and west under the starlight and moonlight were like One by one, the sand tables were shrouded in silver fog over the hills, and they seemed quiet.

At this moment, the eight-headed Gargoyle has long locked their one's own targets. After climbing to a high point, they start the final turn and then dive.

Gargoyle is a heavy flight unit like Griffin, and their wingspan is much wider and more powerful than Griffin, and it is more sturdy, which means that they have almost the strongest climb and dive capabilities in the same level of creature. -- is in game Among them, Gargoyle is the rank 3 troop type closest to rank 4 troop type, Griffin is rank 4 troop type, and Harpy is rank 4 troop type closest to rank 3 troop type. The equalization capabilities of the three types of flying creature are almost between the middle and middle, but it is better than the reconnaissance ability Gargoyle is not an opponent of Harpy The Gargoyle is no match for the fierce Griffin, but in the speed chase of climb and dive, the Gargoyle of the Buga person is well deserved.

Not to mention, the Gargoyle diving from the clouds at this moment is still in a stealth state. The four heads Harpy didn't know that the disaster was coming from the sky. They didn't react panic until the shriek of the air passed to their ears. come.

But unfortunately.

That already is late, the precision of Construct allows eight heads of Gargoyle to enter the attack distance at the same time, and when they show their attack intentions to be apparent from stealth spell, Harpy has no response at all, they only struggle in vain in midair After a moment, the frigid claws broke through the fragile breastbone. The eight-headed Gargoyle are almost arranged in a sequence of one attack, one attack at a time, in order to prevent fish from leaking the net, but it turns out that this is nothing more.

As soon as Gargoyle passed, there was a rain of feathers in midair.

Unfortunately, the place is too high from the ground, and the feathers are fluttering. When I landed, I didn't know where the drift was.

In the dark, no one found the battle -- that ended in already before the sky began

The anxiously waiting person on the ground received the message from Gargoyle at the same time, Rogers couldn't help but gave his companions an excited excitement, and wizards in the forest also applauded. But at the same time, on the other side of the hill, elves wearing Longstaff in batches wearing feather cloaks, wearing different clothes from humans, are coming out of the forest. They are painted with various patterns on their faces, which looks like high mountain. Barbarian Tribe, but pointed ears exposed their identity -- Forest Elf Druid.

A small number of Druids have joined the Brando's magic Wizard Corps in the Aouine Autumn and Autumn War. After the war, more Forest Elfs came out, went out of Black Forest, and settled in his territory. --. This is his and Faithwind Circle Druids. As part of the agreement, as the magic Wizard Corps traveled with the Aouine envoy, these Druidss also came to the land of Kirrlutz.

They chanted ancient mantras against the night breeze, then one by one they turned into starlings or raven, flying in groups from the mountains and flying below to the valley, in the direction of Greystone town.

The areas near the empire's inland seas often have migratory birds migrating. Even inland, it is not uncommon for ravens to hover above the hills. However, Druids chose to disperse into towns and cities in a safe way and lost the sky. Behind the eyes above, Gorgon Ravine's army simply couldn't notice these scattered bird flocks. Druids flew into the city, landed in the dark alleys, deep alleys, or secluded courtyards of -- in the dark, and then reshaped into human figures in the light of a group of moss green. Several Druid groups were taken from their pockets. The blue stones come out and are placed on the ground according to a certain rule to form large and small magic formation.

Then they started to inject Mana into these stones. The green beam of light extends like a snake between the stones. When each stone is connected in series, the Space on magic formation oscillates. From the center, a glittering silver line emerged. This silver line expanded to both sides, like the eyes opened in the void, but this eye had no pupils and only a strange Space shining blue and white light inside.

Far away in the hills at the moment, the same dozens of light gate(s) opened and appeared in front of the White Lion Guards and Kirrlutzian noble personal soldiers who were already ready to go. Everyone was stunned by this wonderful scene in front of them. "Buga people transmitted magic formation!" Rogers screamed. He looked complexly at Brando: "Magesmiths really supports you behind your back."

Brando smiled and said, "Mr. Knight, if your voice is louder for Sir Cooper to hear, maybe he will start to doubt your identity."

Rogers's complexion changed. After thinking about it, it was more important for him to hide the identity of inner court Knight, so he closed his mouth cautiously.
