Chapter 556: Preparing for War
As the goddess Lucy said, everyone is far from being able to rest. The two days when the ship was driving in the dangerous Black Forest were the only chance for the friends to rest and breathe.
The first to discover these two sailing ships sailing safely on the Blackwater River was an orc wolf cavalry scout with only five people and five wolves. They were drinking and resting by the river, probably never realizing that there would be an enemy. So, when the two big ships and the four giant beasts dragging the big boats appeared from the corner of the river, even these elite orc wolf cavalry scouts couldn't help but stand on the spot, stunned. Half a minute later, the orc wolf cavalry, who had finally reacted, hurried to untie the reins of their respective mounts to the stones, but it was too late.
Under a rain of arrows, the five orc wolf cavalry and their mounts were killed on the spot, becoming the first trophies of this small fleet, contributing less than 2,000 experience points to Lu Xi in total.
The appearance of these orc wolf cavalry made Lu Xi breathe a sigh of relief. Since they were so frightened by their appearance, it naturally showed that the upper echelons of the Orc and Undead Alliances really didn't know that they and the survivors of the Federation would break through in the direction of the Blackwater River by boat.
Then, if you are lucky enough to move forward at full speed, you may be able to break through before the enemy's main force reacts and rushes to the mouth of the eagle's beak.
Thinking of this, Lu Xi immediately ordered the sail to be hoisted, and Nicole also summoned a large number of poisonous bees in a frenzy. This poisonous swarm of bees raised by the druids was originally used to harass enemy scouts and disrupt enemy projection lines. It's not enough to deal with a large monster like Inulong, which has rough skin and thick flesh. However, the future High Priestess was not ready to kill these monsters in the first place. It's just to let the other party understand that if you don't work harder. There is a bitter suffering.
After being stabbed dozens of times in a row, a few poor dog dragon demonic beasts were given a stimulating pain that made them feel all over their bodies, and they suddenly burst out with unprecedented action in an instant. The small river boat was dragged out of a high speed of more than 10 knots by them.
The second wave encountered a flock of winged birdmen. Ununiform weapons, inconsistent robes, and unified veteran bandit-like fierceness and chaos, typical members of the Black Flag Winged Man bandit group. It's no secret that the Black Flag Wingmen have joined the coalition of the undead and orcs, or rather, it's strange not to join. However, these bandits, who are far from being able to reach the level of the army in terms of combat effectiveness, strength and discipline, are just a group of mercenaries even in the coalition army. That is, because of the advantage of being able to fly, I can finally make a living by doing promising jobs such as scouts and guerrillas.
Not all of the Black Flag Wingers of Mount Namoa have joined the Coalition forces, and it is said that some of the most famous and powerful groups have fled to the depths of Mount Namoa to sit back and watch the situation of the great war between the Federation and the Coalition forces. Think about it, although the Wing People have been bandits for a long time, the leaders of those big forces have always regarded themselves as "noble celestials", and they are naturally unwilling to bow down and be small under the command of the living dead and a group of beasts that are regarded as uncivilized. Now these Black Flag Wingmen who have joined the coalition are either in the same relationship with necromancers and orc khans a long time ago. The leading party, which is about to become the spokesperson of the two major forces in the mountains, or some small bandit groups that are not very good. The reason why he joined the coalition is probably that he is looking forward to taking advantage of the east wind of the army to grab a hand, maybe he will be able to fight for it.
Of course. It was also evident that neither the Khan of Asog nor the Black Duke Angmar particularly trusted these uninvited "allies", as evidenced by their messy and dilapidated equipment. The Wingmen's scout team consisted of ten people. The weapons consisted of four short bows, estimated to be only capable of hunting small herbivores, and a rudimentary spear with three wooden poles and an iron head. Two wood-chopping axes and an iron sword that should be some years old. Only the three with axes and the sword wore shabby leather armor, and the rest were dressed in ordinary linen or cloth.
Even by the standards of robbers. These people are indeed shabby.
Lu Xi sighed. Elliott and Els, who were on the other ship, had teamed up to pull out a chain of lightning, this kind of high-ring destruction magic that could go up to the sky and enter the underground sea was the best way to attack the group of enemies, and if it was unleashed by Lu Xi, he was even confident that a single blow would collapse the heavily armed phalanx on the spot. Of course, the strength of Lu Xi's two brain-dead fans is naturally far from his strength and realm, but the attack of power is enough to make a few rabbles who appeared in the wrong place at the wrong time turn into charcoal on the spot.
The cokes who had lost their lives fell from the air, shattered to pieces, and none of them escaped, but Lu Xi sighed slightly. He could hear it exactly, and Nicole and Sehireu behind him sighed as they began to silently assemble their own weapons. As for Lim, she had already jumped onto the side of the boat with her weapon, watching vigilantly in the direction of the sky where the group of Black Flag Wingers had appeared, which was the northeast bank of the river.
"This, what's going on...... Haven't all of these enemies been killed? Lieutenant Colonel Fox, who hadn't been on the battlefield a few times, couldn't get used to the suddenly tense atmosphere, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Chain lightning is powerful, but movement is even greater. The flashing light in the sky, and the rolling thunder, are very eye-catching, and we are now on the plains of a flat river, and perhaps people within a radius of dozens of miles will find out what is going on here. Not to mention the monsters that are particularly strong in sight and hearing, such as the Thunderbird. Akdina replied as she checked her gear. The sword-wielding lady had been filled with projectiles, and the four small pockets on her belt contained different types of bullets, adding up to 80 rounds.
"You, this, little miss, do you mean to say ......"
"The enemy can appear at any time. Uncle Fox, if you don't have the courage and ability to fight, it's best to quickly find a place to hide. When the time comes. But there's no one left to take care of you. Drow Lori continued to answer, and began to check her other weapons. The short sword of the talisman has been sharpened. The above enchantment effects were prepared by Drow Lori herself, and they have the effects of poison and vampirism, respectively. The instantaneous magic in the stone bone wood staff has also been prepared. The violent little Lori has prepared a total of five of the strongest destruction spells she can unleash, three illusions and three protective spells with different attributes, as well as some powerful auxiliary spells.
Well, good, ready to fight!
"This, this, this......" Mr. Lieutenant Colonel's innocent and amiable fat face twitched involuntarily, and he reluctantly squeezed out a smile, as if hoping that the other party would tell him that he was joking. Unfortunately, he was disappointed after all. By this time, the leadership of the team had already begun to issue combat orders. No one cares about this useless fat man anymore. Even Zhuo Er Lori, who is "the best to speak", has already strode to the side of the ship at this time, holding the lady holding the sword in one hand and the stone bone and wood staff in the other, with an expression that whoever comes out will destroy whom.
"Everyone is on alert! Team 1, team 2, ready to take on the enemy at any time! The third team, the fourth team, all went down to the cabin and got ready to paddle! Sehireu gave the order loudly. Her voice spread into the air with the magic. It was quickly passed on to two ships. Looking at her calm and calm way of giving orders, she really has a few heroic postures, capable and bright courage and leadership. When I was at school, Miss Lady of the Student Council ordered the bear children. It should be like this.,The cuteness seems to have increased a lot?
"Lu Lu, bullets." Nicole shouted to Lu Xi. She carried on her back the conductive rifled gun "Tento" given to her by Lu Xi, as well as three bags of arrows. She had a blade and a scimitar hanging from her waist, and one hand held her richly decorated longbow.
Lu Xi directly took out a leather bag from the space bag and stuffed it into Nicole's empty hand: "Red flowering bullet." The green poison bomb and the silver evil destroying bomb have a total of two or three hundred rounds, which is enough for you. ”
The elven girl nodded, took the bag on her shoulder, and climbed the shell of the main mast with only one hand, and with a leap of her body, she had already climbed to the lookout at the top of the mast with just a few quick dodges like a swift wind. She stood on tiptoe and stared at the distant sky, but her clear and shortcut eyes suddenly changed shape, turning into heavy eyes of amber and dark black, and her gaze was as sharp as a sword.
The most practical trick of druid magic, Eagle Eye, is also the scout magic that almost every elven druid and veteran hunter has mastered.
"Nicole, do you see anything?"
"At eight o'clock, a bone dragon is approaching at full speed! Behind the bone dragon are two giant-winged beasts, with riders on their backs, presumably necromantic knights! The elf girl reminded everyone loudly. She hesitated, but finally put the bow and arrow on the table, lifted the vine, and fired a red-painted flowering bullet into it.
"Bullets are useless against the bones of the undead that have no flesh or pain, Nicole, that guy is up to me to deal with! Watch out for those two necromantic knights. ”
The elf girl lowered her eyelids, looked at Lu Xi, and nodded seriously. She put down her loaded spear and lifted her bow and arrow very quickly.
A few minutes later, the bone dragon swooped down on the skeleton of its wings, which had lost its flesh, and landed farther away on two scavenging alchemy beasts. The armored necromantic knights rode on the backs of the beasts, one carrying a dragon spear nearly three meters high, and the other carrying a dark red blade of the horse-slashing greatsword.
After all, it is an undead alchemy creature of wild animal intelligence, and the bone dragon seems to have taken the crowd on this ship as a delicious prey at all. It silently opened its huge mouth, made a few "clicks", then flapped its wings vigorously, whistled and flew down, as if it were hunting an osprey on the surface of the water.
Lu Xi raised the World Tree Scepter, as if the most brilliant emerald light essence turned into dark green light, spraying out from the tip of the staff. Everyone present saw the scene, the green light like a sword that tore through the sky and the wilderness, as if the whole world was split in half for a brief moment, and then hit the body of the bone dragon that was flying down, and then disappeared. The whole thing was as fast as lightning, so fast that everyone didn't have time to react, and for a while, they even felt that the green light was just an illusion.
"You're dead." Lu Xi said coldly. At this time, he felt that he had been possessed by the soul of a middle two muscular man who had to pretend to be a monkey in a fight.
The body of the bone dragon even reflexively swooped forward, and then, its entire body seemed to have completely lost all support and support, and began to disintegrate in mid-air. The shattered skeleton not only began to fall apart, but also seemed to have completed tens of thousands of years of history in just half a second, and with the blowing and winding, it turned into invisible molecular particles and disappeared with the wind.
(System: The host kills a bone dragon and gains 1670 experience points.) )
(System: Congratulations to the host for killing more than 5 undead dragons in total, triggering the quest "The End of the Dragon Blasphemer.") Mission Description: After the death of the proud true dragon, the dragon soul will return to the land of the ancestors, but the bones will remain in the resting place. For tens of thousands of years, the graves of countless true dragons have been buried around the world, only to be used by evil necromancy. The bones of the dragons have become the most powerful aerial force of the Henas undead legion, but their existence is the greatest irony of the dragons. )
(Quest victory conditions: 1. Kill 20 undead dragons, and the quest progress is 5/10.) 2. Destroy Miè's Undead Dragon Alchemy Factory in Henas. 3. Kill the inventor and maker of the Undead Dragon, the Council of the Dead, Gityl. )
(Reward for victory in the mission: 80,000 experience points, 40 attribute points, 15 skill points, and the talent "Bahamut's Blessing".) )
"Dissociation?! Ahh After a few seconds of astonishment, the two brain-dead fans on the other ship immediately let out an earth-shattering cheer. However, Lu Xi himself was thinking, when did I kill the five undead dragons? Well, I remember that one should have been killed on the spot in Black Man City before, and this should be the second one, right? Well, speaking of which, when I drove the Qiyao Aurora directly into the battlefield to play dog fighting with the God of War, it seemed that there were a few big lizards with ribs that didn't open their eyes and ran to the side to save their senses, and then they were directly set on fire. In such a tense situation at that time, Lu Xi naturally didn't have the heart to count the kills of miscellaneous soldiers - in front of the Qiyao Aurora and the old black dragon possessed by the God of War, of course, the bone dragon was just a miscellaneous soldier. Of course, he wouldn't have to go through that long list of system kills after the fact.
All in all, a mission that sounded interesting was triggered, and Lu Xi was still very satisfied. Moreover, at the beginning, the wind single-handedly scared the two Abyss Lords and a group of big demons into the powerful trick of fleeing from the wilderness, and the spell of the super winner in the magic confrontation, Lu Xi finally fully mastered it.
The next step is to fully master the Great Lysis ...... After that, it was to find a place to be the sub-class "scholar" of that Rauschzi, and march towards those legendary spells of the tenth ring. Lu Xi thought so in his heart, and then aimed his gaze at the two approaching giant winged beasts, as well as the necromantic knights on their backs.
I don't know if Lu Xi's sight is too lethal, and he actually penetrated such a long distance, making the two necromantic knights involuntarily shudder. They grabbed their mounts at the crotch and flew a few laps in the distance, but they didn't come close.
It's a pity that the Necroknights with enough intelligence are naturally not "wild animals" like bone dragons, and their almost immortal life grants them rich combat experience, as well as enough judgment. The two necromantic knights circled a few more times, looked at the bone dragon with half of its body turned into powder, glanced at each other, and almost at the same moment pulled their mounts, and fled straight away.
"Hey, that's it." Lu Xi pursed his lips abruptly, and then said loudly to everyone: "Speed up!" As long as we break through the spout of the olecranon pot, they will no longer be able to intercept us. (To be continued......)
