Beside the recently completed training ground, the Stalker soldiers who were assisting in the defense sat together with the human craftsmen, preparing to watch an exciting confrontation.
Since the alliance between the twin cities, it did not take a long time for humans and dark elves to go from hostility and suspicion at the beginning to working together as allies.
Everyone knows that the decisive battle with the underground demon army is coming soon.
"Who wants to face death with a gloomy face if they can get drunk?" A middle-aged craftsman walked into the training ground with a smile on his face.
He held a large wooden barrel in his arms. There was a rough image of a griffon carved on the barrel, and an unknown circle was painted on the front of the lion's head and the griffon's claws.
Just like the carpenter asked his three-year-old daughter to carve the chicks and eggs.
The crowd was still far away when the middle-aged craftsman started shouting:
"Let's try the latest wild wheat bar produced in Starwind City! This is a rare product. According to Mr. Li Ran, this is a subsidy for our workers in difficult and remote areas!"
The middle-aged man's words filled the room with cheers. The hunters and craftsmen who had finished their war preparations and construction work all took a small sip from their wooden cups.
It is too precious and too rare.
After the first batch of wild wheat was harvested, I don’t know which brave man first proposed the idea of using wild wheat to make wine, but he was severely rebuked by the Archconsul of Malen.
He believed that all grain grains must be stored in good condition as a reserve to survive the severe winter.
The lord didn't think so. After hearing this treasonous proposal, he immediately ordered a small part of the harvest to be used to make wild wheat wine.
These precious consumables will be supplied in limited quantities to people who work under difficult conditions for a long time.
As for the food problem, the lord has another solution.
The New Deal was warmly welcomed by front-line workers. Some craftsmen in the city even applied to be transferred to the most difficult positions just for a sip of ale.
Construction is in full swing throughout Starwind Territory, and the training results of the Skeleton Cavalry are also progressing rapidly.
In order to further improve combat effectiveness, at the suggestion of the elf instructor Qiao, Black Cliff City deployed a group of lizard cavalry as sparring partners.
Only the best soldiers can emerge on the battlefield, this saying never goes out of style.
The two troops entered opposite ends of the training ground.
The skeleton cavalry and the lizard cavalry lined up separately, setting up their spears and getting ready to go.
Dark Knight Hart and Cavalry Instructor Joe will lead their cavalry teams in a showdown.
The dark knight sat astride his war horse, held the long blade up to his chest, nodded slightly, and paid a solemn knightly salute to his opponent.
Joe leaned down on the horse, as if inviting a lady to mount, and responded with an elegant gentlemanly courtesy.
Hart's soul fire trembled and turned deep red.
A subtle provocation.
The onlookers from Starwind City and Dark Elves put down their ales and waved their arms to cheer on the field.
"Come on! Big lizards!"
"Skeleton soldiers! Attack!"
This is the fight between dark elves and skeleton warriors.
This is a confrontation between a cold-blooded lizard and a skeletal war horse.
From another perspective, it is also a competition between Blackcliff City and Starwind City for honor!
As on-site spectators, they will spread the results of the competition vividly.
At the same time, everyone is betting a lot of money on this!
Ding ding ding ding!
The signal sounds and the battle begins!
After effective training, the skeleton warriors have mastered the skills of riding attacks.
They blended in with the skeleton horse, lowering their bodies slightly before engaging the enemy, holding the lances between their ribs and arms pointed forward.
Simply adjust the direction of the gun head and horse to deliver the deadly spear tip into the enemy's heart.
At this time, the high speed of the skeleton horse gave the lance a powerful impact. This lance could break through the protection of light breastplates on a conventional battlefield!
However, the relationship between the two cities has not deteriorated to this extent. The weapons used in this game were all fragile training rifles, and both sides were also equipped with chest protectors.
hack!
Snapped!
The Green Knight and the Black Knight collided fiercely, and for a moment, people from both sides fell to the ground.
The fallen man left the training ground dizzy, and the remaining cavalry launched the next round of charge.
In the end, all the skeleton soldiers were thrown off their horses.
On the other side of the scene, stood Joe and his three lizard cavalry.
Lizard Cavalry is a fourth-level creature, while Skeleton Cavalry is a combination of first- and second-level creatures.
This is an incredible result for two sides with huge level differences. If it were on the battlefield, such a battle loss ratio would be unacceptable to Heiya.
"The victory has been decided!"
The stalker poured the ale into his stomach. "The honor belongs to Black Cliff! The chips are mine!"
"Let me tell you, the battle is not over yet." The middle-aged craftsman said in a subtle tone.
He shook the wine glass twice, put it gently to his mouth and took a sip.
"What!?"
The stalker finally noticed something fishy about the situation on the field.
All the skeleton warriors have fallen, but there is still a dark knight on the field.
Qiao looked embarrassed and said in a nervous voice: "I give up! Can you be gentler?"
Hart said nothing and just kicked the horse in the belly.
The war horse moved slowly, the breathtaking aura of death emitted, and the lizards fell limply to the ground.
Like carrying a chicken, Hart knocked down the elf cavalry one by one with his black steel fist.
The middle-aged man raised his glass and shouted: "A brilliant victory!"
"It's not fair!" the stalker screamed, "his rank is higher than Joe's!"
"Don't forget, the lizard cavalry is of a much higher level than the skeleton soldiers. There is no absolute fairness in life."
The middle-aged man winked and pocketed the bargaining chips with satisfaction.
Those chips are not gold coins, they are just vouchers for the canteen's incense grilled fish.
Hart stretched out his hand to help Joe, who fell to the ground, and the two called soldiers from both sides to immediately conduct a new round of evaluation of the training results.
Only then did Hart feel a dim magical aura coming from the corner of the training ground.
He looked intently and was suddenly startled.
Two dark elves wearing strange robes were standing at the edge and pointing.
When did they get here?
No one noticed, just like... emerging from the shadows.
Seeing Hart looking here, two dark elves came over.
One of the dark elves laughed and said:
"Are you the supreme commander? I am Hughes, a researcher from the Dark Alchemist Association. I just received an urgent order from Lord Li Ran. I'm sorry for arriving unexpectedly without notification."
Hart had not yet recovered from his surprise. He couldn't help but ask:
"Are all you dark alchemists so insignificant?"
"what did you say?"
"Ah, it's nothing. Did you just say that you received orders from Lord Li Ran?"
"Yes," Hughes showed a bright smile, "According to Lord Li Ran's idea, I was ordered to develop a weapon."
"It will be modified based on the rifle, including a lightweight barrel and a gun head equipped with a trigger sleeve."
"With your assistance, we will study an effective design solution for installing cluster magic energy bombs on the top of the lance."
"This special lance has been named by the lord, and it will be called a cluster guerrilla gun."
"And your troops will have a resounding name as the special battle order of the Skeleton Corps."
Hughes showed a mysterious smile and uttered a term that had never appeared on the mainland.
