792 Infiltration
Night soon fell, and the light of torches was everywhere in Gruul's position.
Beta also felt the flow of many wisps of magic in the air, indicating that there were many magicians on the other side who were using magic. It's mostly detection magic, but the effect is not very strong, and Beta can feel it.
Beta and the others were in the grove, and he stood in the middle, with ten archers on his left and ten thieves on his right.
"I'll apply a crowd acceleration to all of you archers later, and you can lurk here first." Beta spread out the improvised map and pointed to a point: "This is a high ground, and it is also relatively steep, for you archers, it is easy to go up, but for others, it is a little difficult. Shoot harassment at this point and find a way to get their attention. If the enemy approaches you within 100 meters, be sure to evacuate quickly. With the acceleration technique, there should be no one who can catch up with you when you move through the forest. ”
Beta looked at the right-hand side: "Later, I will act with the thieves, and I will apply a secondary fading technique to you, although the effect is not very strong, but with your stealth technique, it is enough." After the archers have attracted their attention, we will infiltrate the enemy's barracks, and the secondary fading will only be effective for four hours, remember to leave the enemy's position and return here before the effect of the fading spell wears off. ”
"But with only four hours, we didn't find much to find." A thief said.
"It's okay, we have two days. That's enough for us for several 'four hours.'" Beta smiled, "After all, there is an old saying that you can't always be on the lookout for a thief who has a crush on your belongings. ”
The crowd laughed. This sentence is a compliment to the thieves, and with just one sentence, Beta has successfully brought the thieves closer.
"Okay, act now, be careful, and go back alive to receive your exploits."
Beta gestured, and an aura of magic enveloped the bodies of the ten archers, who nodded to Beta and quickly left the grove.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Beta estimated that the archers were almost halfway there, so he cast a fade spell on the rest of the thieves, and then led them, cats, to the right flank of the Grull Front.
The defense there looks weak.
At the same time, in the 7th Infantry Battalion of the Grull Front, the deputy battalion commander Valentin was patrolling the left flank of the front with his men. (From a different perspective, the right flank of the enemy is the left flank of the enemy himself.) )
He looked at the sparse torches around him, and his heart was a little worried.
The defenses are obviously inadequate, and there are no powerful mages nearby, so it can easily be infiltrated by enemy scouts or thieves.
It's just that he can't be the master of this matter.
In the camp just now, he was angrily scolded by the battalion commander because of this.
He made an upward suggestion to the battalion commander to put back some of the troops leaning towards the right flank, but the battalion commander vetoed it. He argued on the basis of reason, saying that the front close to the Chinese army was 'thick' enough, but here on the left, the defensive strength was obviously insufficient.
The battalion commander said that he couldn't help him, so he was angry and smashed a cup on his head and smashed him out.
Sighing with some apprehension, Valentin had to personally lead his men to patrol here on the left side.
The moonlight is very bright, and it stands to reason that in such a climate, it is very knowledgeable to conduct reconnaissance at night, and the enemy generally does not infiltrate in this environment, after all, the success rate is low.
But for some reason, Valentine just felt a little uneasy.
Soon, he discovered that his instincts were right. A rain of arrows came down from the upper left side.
At that moment, more than a dozen soldiers were hit by arrows and fell to the ground screaming.
Relying on his quick intuition, he spotted the firing point on a small hill. It wasn't a very good garrison, the summit was too small, so they didn't send people up to defend it.
But how did the enemy go up.
In this wave of arrow rain, there are more than 100 arrows in power, and the trajectory of the arrows is a little messy, and it can be seen that the enemy is using rapid-fire skills, and the number of people should be between ten and twenty.
"Find cover." Valentine shouted, holding the shield he was carrying upward.
The small mountain was quite high, and it was impossible for his archers to fight back. He shouted to the left: "The third light shield swordsman squad, a phalanx of 100 people, press over and take back the small peak." ”
"Yes."
As soon as the phalanx was formed, a second wave of arrows came, and this time the soldiers with torches were attacked.
More than a dozen soldiers fell to the ground, five of them with torches.
Are they attacking the light source?
Thinking of this, Valentine immediately understood the other party's intentions, and he shouted loudly: "Be careful with your side, don't let the thieves sneak over." ”
As soon as he shouted this, he saw a flash of lightning shoot towards him.
He reacted quickly, and pushed the shield in his hand in front of him. The shield in his hand was specially made for him by the family, and it was mixed with some precious anti-magic materials, thinking that he could block this magic attack, but he didn't expect it, but he felt a strange force knocking him away, and at the same time, the shield in his hand was smashed into pieces.
What a strong magic!
It's dead.
Valentine fell from mid-air, and the long sword in his hand was thrown aside. Then he saw a shadow come towards him.
In despair, he could only close his eyes.
The expected pain did not come, and a clanging sound was heard, followed by a familiar shout: "Fool, stand up." ”
It was the voice of the battalion commander.
Valentine opened his eyes and saw the battalion commander in armor, using his shield to block the attack of a figure-like figure.
Because of the violent action, the magic effect on the attacker's body gradually disappeared, and then the two saw that the enemy in front of them was actually a rather handsome young man.
Valentin got up, picked up his long sword at the same time, and was about to step forward to attack the enemy with the battalion commander, but the other party was smart, chuckled, took a few steps back, and threw a ball of light.
"Close your eyes!"
The battalion commander snorted.
Valen trusted the battalion commander's judgment and immediately closed his eyes.
Then, through the eyelids, you can also feel a burst of white light in both eyes, and after two seconds, it will dim again.
There were screams from the side, and many soldiers who didn't have time to close their eyes were stung by the bright light, and they lost their eyesight in a short time.
He immediately opened his eyes and crossed his sword to his chest, alerting the enemy for an attack.
But when he saw the attacker, he had already run away, and only a dark shadow remained.
The battalion commander was about to order a team of people to chase after him, but before the words could be spoken, another wave of arrows rained down in the air. Angry, the battalion commander roared angrily, and let the light-armored swordsman touch it and destroy all the enemy.
The result was obvious, but the lightly armored swordsman climbed the small hill, and the enemy had already left.
Valentine sighed as he looked at the chaotic barracks, he felt as if someone was running quickly past him as he closed his eyes to prevent being blinded by the white light.
I don't know if it's an illusion.
