"Master Blair, news from Alva." An assistant in a high-level magician robe handed a small ball of parchment to Master Blair who was enjoying lunch. Blair turned on the ball of parchment slowly, carefully
After reading the entire content, he asked, "How many copies have you received in total?"
“Only this one.”
"Oh, this news came out shortly after the sun rose in the morning, and it was already noon, it was seven hours. Calculate the time, from Sek City to here, at most, there are only five or six.
You're a kid?"
"Ah, yes, even if people walk and travel overnight, it will take more than ten hours to arrive. It will take less than six hours if the carrier pigeons fly in the air."
"I only received one of the three messages. It seems that the people surrounding us are well arranged. Oh, by the way, Clifford, how are our children?"
Clifford walked slowly over and sat down at Blair's table. A servant immediately served him a fine lunch. Clifford picked up the tableware and cut a small piece with a dining knife to fry the fire.
Egg, while answering Blair's words, "There is a complete contraction, but the encirclement is still very tight. The result of the investigation with the Magic Eye, the other party should be as usual, but our scout brought back a little interesting news."
"Oh, what is that?"
"Magic, our children also have magicians, and they are not bad at all." Clifford put the cut fried turkey eggs in his mouth and tasted them slowly. After he swallowed the food, he continued to say: "Just,"
It’s really fun to use illusion to interfere with our magic eyes to detect it.
"Hahahaha," Blair laughed, and he said as he laughed, "It's really true that you dare to use these tricks in front of a great magician... It seems that we are too low-key and don't take risks. Maybe the world is already
Just forget us.”
"Yes." Clifford began to cut a piece of fried steak again: "They used illusion to cover up the continuous support. Now there are at least 20,000 to 25,000 soldiers around the entire Valen Peak, and the scouts also saw the other party being
Cut down trees to make stone throwers.”
"I understand." Farath, who was sitting aside for lunch, couldn't help but speak: "Their reinforcements actually arrived in the morning, but that was just the vanguard. They have been patient until now, just to wait for the support and make
Weapons that can be taken from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain.”
"Yes, that's it." Blair nodded and said, "They may not be able to make a good stone throwing car in a hurry, right? Ryan, Farath, you used to fight with orcs in the Thor Fortress and the Imperial Capital.
, Do you think if you use trees in this mountainous area, how much stone can you shoot from the finished product? How far can you hit?"
Ryan thought for a while and answered honestly: "If it were us humans, we could probably throw 1 kilogram of stones out of 2 ooo meters, but that was a finished product of fine work after all. I guess those people at the foot of the mountain were hasty.
It can't be done, but it can also be made with 1 ooo meter."
"Is 1ooo meter?" Blair and Clifford looked at each other, and Blair spoke, "If this is the case, we may have to change our strategy. After all, this Valen Peak is only a few hundred meters high. If they approach
About 50 meters below the mountain can avoid our magical blows or attack the mountain. Although we are not afraid, those servants and horses will still be frightened."
"I'll go now." Clifford left the lunch that had just eaten a few bites, wiped his hands casually with a napkin, stood up and left immediately, and Blair also said to Ryan: "Wait until we finish this
For lunch, go there to find a good location to watch the showbiz.”
"Okay." Ryan replied loudly.
"Okay!" Nelson shouted loudly. Standing in front of him was the commander of the last arrival of the 20,000 troops led by Nelson this time. Nelson turned his head to analyze for him before, "Why didn't Blair go?"
The man, Seinate, who specially sent someone to take him with him, said: "One morning our vulture caught two carrier pigeons, but the information on it was a mess. How could it be?
I can't understand it even if I read it."
Samir, who was about thirty years old, said, "That's a secret letter, something developed by a magician. If you don't know what the secret runes mean, it's like a person who doesn't understand magic to see it."
You know every pattern on those high-level magic circles, but you just don’t know what it means when combined.”
Nelson also knew a little about this, and he said, "I'm afraid it's impossible for us to find out what was written on the parchment in a short time, but according to the scout, a pigeon escaped by chance. In this way, the other party
I already knew what their companions wanted them to know. And we moved forward lightly last night and held on to the supply until tomorrow night at most. It would be bad for us to hold on like this."
Samir thought for a while and said to Nelson: "Our ten stone throwing cars have been made, right? But it is impossible to compare with the one on the Sek city wall in a hurry. I remember that it was at most when the test shot was tested.
We have hit 8oo meters. Now we have to attack the mountain from the bottom of the mountain. If we want to have lethality, we must push the stone-throwing cart to a place about 400000 meters at the foot of the mountain without being detected by the enemy's magic.
.We have only ten people here. We have to use magic to cover the stone throwing cart and protect the soldiers from magic attacks. It is too difficult. If the enemy is an ordinary person, don't forget that they have 3 great magicians and
11 magicians.”
Nelson looked at the people around him, all of whom were his confidants, and there was no irrelevant person. The nearest guard was more than 20 meters away, so he lowered his voice and said in a low voice: "The first wave of attacks,
I will transfer non-main forces to the top, so I don’t have to care about their lives or death. Many of these second-line troops were pieced together by the little lords and some bandits who depended on the adults. The combat power is very poor, but the supply is almost the same as the elite main force.
Otherwise, they will cause trouble or simply harm the local area. Adults have long wanted to rectify it, and now they have the chance..."
"I understand." Samir nodded slightly: "Since that's the case, it's easy to do, but the supervision team is indispensable. As long as they retreat, they will die. If they push the stone throwing cart with all their strength, they will have a chance to survive.
It will make the stone thrower move faster.”
"Of course. I've experienced many battles, please rest assured. But you should take care of yourself. Adults still need you." Nelson said.
"Don't worry, we may not be able to beat those great magicians head-on, but it is still more than enough to protect ourselves." Samir said in a confident tone: "According to the plan made by our wise Lord Senate himself, we magicians and
There was no promotion test for the Magic Guild, and we were only proficient in the magic that was beneficial to war. However, at the base, we, the magicians who were specially trained to protect adults, could resist two at the same time.
The strength of the advanced magicians bombarded in turn."
