War horses roared, swords and shields rubbed against each other, a team of neatly dressed soldiers were running on this cold road, the breath exhaled was clearly visible, the originally muddy grass land turned into a frozen ground under the rendering of the severe cold, and the pathfinders in front of them trampled their feet heavily on it, trying the depth, so that the troops behind them could pass safely.

In the jungle, the creatures huddled in the caves quietly stuck their heads out to see what was happening outside. When they saw such a large number of marching troops, they shrank inward by three more points, for fear that this torrent would come to trouble them. Even if it's not, abrasions aren't a good thing. If they can avoid it, they will avoid it, which is what they think at the moment.

However, there are also two bold cheetahs who are looking at these people who operate like precision instruments with smart eyes, these two cheetahs are transformed by Luther Dew and Wiener Dew, and the advantage of having plasticity is here. They all took up the high-level profession of Jungle Walker from Parker Dew.

"It looks like there are far more enemies than we thought, and they are no worse equipped than our sergeants, so if this battle does start, it will be a bit of a problem for us." Vena Dew whispered, a hint of worry flashing through her eyes.

"The war lord in the rear will definitely be able to cope with it, as long as we accomplish our mission, it will be enough to severely damage the opponent's spirit, without food and logistics, we will not survive long in this environment. Humans are indeed much more vulnerable than other races, and finding their weaknesses is enough to capture them with one move. ”

Luther Dew was more open-minded and didn't worry too much. After all, as long as the enemy does not have the help of flying demonic beasts, with the help of the favorable defense of the city wall, it is not a big problem to resist several times the strength of his own. Especially when Raphael himself was in charge, he didn't think that this group of people could easily win.

"But judging by the equipment these guys are wearing, the enemy must have come prepared this time. I don't think we'll be able to do that smoothly this time. With a delicate feminine gaze, Wiener Dew noticed that there were a number of soldiers who were more elite and murderous than those of the motley army, and she couldn't help but doubt the success or failure of this operation.

"Let's act according to the situation, haven't you explained it? If you can't do anything, go back immediately. I think adults also have this in mind. Seeing that his partner was a little lacking in confidence, Luther Dew couldn't help but sigh with relief.

Wiener Dew shook her head slightly, relaxing her body and mind, not letting these emotions interfere with her calm brain, "Also, did the two liuyun martens you domesticate send back any information?" ”

"Not yet, let's go first. It's a bit of an eye-catcher to stay here. ”

Some of the soldiers looked at the two of them with greedy eyes, and if it weren't for the discipline of the army, perhaps they would have chosen to draw the magic spear behind them to test their marksmanship. But these two leopards are really clever, and they ran away as soon as they slipped away.

……

"Ms. Gloria Crane, it's not a good habit to be sneaky." Raphael said these words lightly, and a figure appeared from the shadows. However, the person who came was not embarrassed in the slightest, but sat on a chair very generously.

"I've heard that the Marquis of Raphael is in some trouble, so I wanted to see if there was anything I needed help with. Isn't it a common phrase among merchants? Isn't it in love to buy and sell. Maybe you'll change your mind because of this? ”

There was a hint of cunning in Gloria Crane's eyes, she did not hesitate to expose her profession this time just to sell the other party's favor, and the other party would not be able to open her mouth in the Mysterious Forest. These nobles of the Ottore Empire have really done themselves a great favor.

"Is that why Ms. Gloria Crane broke into my house at night? It's not that I look down on you Principality of Bamorrotun, but if you help me in this matter, you will surely be hated by many. Do you think what I said to you last time was bluffing you? "How does Gloria Crane think Raphael naturally saw through it at a glance, and he was not stupid, the soldiers that Gloria Crane brought this time were only two hundred, so it was too easy to want to make herself owe her a favor?

"Besides, I think I can resist the attacks of these guys. Thank you very much for your concern, and I will definitely welcome you when you plan to renegotiate with me about the distribution of benefits in the Mystery Forest. Raphael put on a send-off look, which made Gloria Crane itch with hatred in her heart.

"We agreed to the conditions you made last time." According to the news from the Duchy of Bamorotun, two groups of exploration troops died in it, and there were even three sixth-order powerhouses among them. Although this kind of loss is acceptable to the Duchy of Bamorrotun, who can bear it in the long run?

So although Raphael's offer is indeed too high, Hammin Crane, the ruler of the Duchy of Bamorotun, considers that if he gives up Raphael Abraham's card, he may have to pay more and the risk will be greater. It's better to agree, if the other party really understands this mysterious forest like that, it is not unacceptable to make a profit of sixty percent.

"It's a very wise choice, but this matter can only be postponed."

As soon as Raphael's words fell, there was a sharp chirp from the city walls, it was the cry of the 'clairvoyant', and it seemed that the vanguard of the opposing party was coming faster than expected. On the city wall, a magic lamp lit up and hit the frozen ground in front of it, without the cover of lush weeds, and the wanderers below who originally wanted to move in the dark immediately disappeared under the light of the magic lamp.

"Archer, shoot!" At the sound of the order, dozens of arrows came out of the string, these arrows were fast and steady, and in an instant they took the lives of several wanderers.

The first wave of temptations on both sides ended in such a hasty ending.

However, the other party's generals did not seem to be reconciled to this, the second wave of attacks followed, this time without any temptation, several huge siege beasts with their big bellies rushed towards the city wall, this is a creature similar to ogres, but they are more ferocious and violent, the most important thing is that they are not afraid of death, and are deeply loved by some big nobles.

Raphael didn't expect the other party to even use this thing, but the soldiers on the city wall did not panic because of this, they were all soldiers who had experienced many actual battles. Moreover, the strong wall under their feet is their best reliance.

"Bang bang bang!" The roar of the magic spear roared from under the city walls, and these bullets condensed from the elements left bullet marks of different shades on the city walls, suppressing the archers inside the city walls at once, and they did not dare to stick their heads out. Stray bullets are ruthless, and if they are hit, it will definitely end up dead and alive.

"Whoa!" These siege beasts roared loudly, their fat bodies slammed into the solid city wall, this strong impact force even made the city wall shake slightly, the name of the siege beast really did not blow out.

The guards in the city stomped their feet in a hurry, but the attacks of the magic energy spears below were wave after wave, making them unable to make effective countermeasures at all.

"If you are weak, you will be beaten." Raphael's mind couldn't help but think of this sentence, before the high-level archers were formed. The power, accuracy, and range of arrows shot by ordinary archers are still too poor. Under the leftover toys played by dwarfs and highlanders like the magic spear, they can only be overwhelmed.

It seems that after this battle, it is really necessary to further update the equipment on the soldiers! With the group of blackstone dwarves in the Xitie Valley, coupled with the design drawings that have been brewed in their minds, the magic energy firearms they designed will definitely be able to shine when the time comes. This was the easiest way for Raphael to think of to improve the combat power of the Reserve Legion.

Of course, before that, it is necessary to leave all these advance troops behind.

"Open the trap set by the city gates!" The guard shouted orders to the herald behind him.

"Yes!" The herald bent over and hurried toward the side of the passage.

"Boom!" The stones on the city wall were pushed down, and at the same time, the bodies of these siege beasts leaned, and the hard ground under their feet was like a piece of mud at this moment, so that they could not control their bodies at all for a while. But from the creatures' instinct to deal with danger, the siege beasts quickly protected their heads, so that the falling rocks above their heads could not hit their small heads.

Their sturdy bodies were the best shields at this moment, and their arms swept like electric fans, and they easily pushed away the stones, which could cause fatal damage to humans, but they had no effect on them. But the soldiers were not discouraged. The lower part of the wall was removed from several stone bricks, from which thick pipes protruded, and streams of flames erupted.

At this moment, even the fat on their bodies was thick, and under the scorching flames, these siege beasts wailed again and again, and the momentum of the attack was stagnant. Raphael stood quietly under the city wall and watched all this through his spiritual power, all the actions of the soldiers did not escape the detection of his mental power, and overall, they did a good job.

After all, it was only a rebel army composed of some reserve legions, and it was beyond Raphael's expectations to have such an effect. This is a manifestation of weakness, since your opponent feels that you can completely eat yourself, then you really let the opponent have such an illusion.

However, this action undoubtedly made the siege beasts even more furious, and they slapped their hands against the city walls, their sharp claws scratching at a layer of stone chips. It was hard to swallow two mouthfuls of saliva, and it was not difficult to imagine that if these monsters were encountered on flat ground, their chances of survival would be almost zero.

The flames were even worse, Raphael quietly struck, and clusters of flames rose from under these siege beasts, like dry wood encountering fire, and the grease on their bodies not only could not provide them with a defensive effect at this moment, but became the best accelerant! In an instant, the flames engulfed their bodies, and they didn't even have time to scream.

This strange development did not attract anyone's attention, perhaps in their opinion, the death of these siege beasts was inevitable, but only a matter of time.

"Attack!" There was a very loud sound of bull's horns from the enemy, and it seemed that the other party was planning to take down the city wall in one go.

"My lord, should we wait for the arrival of the follow-up troops? Such a rash attack will only greatly damage the vitality of our territory, and when the time comes, not only will we not be able to get benefits, but we will also be hacked by other lords. After seeing his lord, who didn't understand military affairs at all, blindly directing this battle, one of his generals couldn't help but admonish.

"You know what? There's never been a better time to attack. Don't you see that the other side has been overwhelmed by our attack? If you don't take advantage of the other party to take it down in one fell swoop now, how long will it take? The tall and lanky lord waved his hand impatiently, and the soldiers under his command all exchanged their shotguns for cannons, giving him a sense of pleasure.

"You can't think about it that way, the soldiers don't have any experience fighting in the dark. Reckless action will only put the soldiers in danger. What happened to those huge demonic beasts just now is also what you have seen with your own eyes, lord, if the other party has any unknown backhand, we will be defeated! The general didn't seem to notice the increasingly cold expression on the lord's face, and continued to admonish.

"Alva, don't take my temper here. You're just a general under me, and whatever I want you to do, you're going to do it for me!" As if sensing that his authority had been challenged, the lord roared angrily, as if intending to blow the tent away.

"Lord Lord...... "The man seemed to want to say something, and the friend next to him immediately subdued him and pleaded with him." Lord Lord, please calm your anger, Alva is still too young to understand anything, please bypass him for his father's sake. ”

"If it weren't for the fact that his father saved my life, I wouldn't have spared him now. Forget it, press him down, I don't want to see him again. As for you, lead those soldiers to attack me! I'm going to sit on that wall and watch the morning sun rise before the sun rises tomorrow! The lord snorted coldly, and then pointed to the other generals and ordered.

"Yes!"
