After the Legend

Chapter 151: Start the war (Part 1)

Views:

The two teams, as well as people from all over Xi'an, took action. Rumors about the ferocious and terrifying monsters slowly spread from north to south after the reopening of several residential areas. Therefore, the residents of the town were very active in providing information. assist. When the sun was about to set, all preparations were in place, and everyone was nervously waiting for the moment of decisive battle.

When Minte was scouting the enemy's situation, he was called back by Mallory and assigned to Noga's side to lead and command the magicians (including apprentices). Mallory said this:

"They are all young people who have never experienced war. It would be bad if they fight each other in a chaotic manner, waste magic power, and hinder the battle. If we send our officers there, they may be able to command it, but our people are not good at it. You can also see the attitude of Nuojia Army. They are afraid that the people sent there will be smart and deliberately fail to do their job well, causing Nuojia to suffer losses. If it is normal, they will suffer heavy losses, which means they can no longer try to trick us. Of course it is a good thing, but if we are not careful now, we may harm ourselves, so we must not be careless. Moreover, if Noga is damaged too much, he may transfer his hatred to us, and the possibility of war will increase in the future. . We can't be wary of them every day, right? And officers don't know magic, so they may not be good candidates. I have considered it with the marshal, you know magic, you are from our security agency, and you are familiar with the Duke of Noga, yes The best candidate."

Minte nodded while listening. When he was done, he was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Mallory, who hesitated and said: "If... they don't have enough bows and arrows, just tell them that we have good bows and arrows specially shipped from the north. It was made by dwarves, and we will never be stingy with our friends!”

Minte didn't understand what he meant: "Huh? Oh, okay, but I think their armaments should be sufficient. Duke Jedda also bought dozens of cars of oil at a high price from the residents of the Southern District. Speaking of which, Esparo and the others were really stupid and gave Jada time to think about it. But they didn’t expect to give him the opportunity to supplement his combat readiness.”

Mallory narrowed his eyes: "Indeed...why do they give the Noga people so much time? Is there any other intention?"

"Purpose?" Minte smiled, "What's the purpose? Do they like to fight at night and rest during the day?"

Mallory's expression suddenly changed, and he stomped his cane: "Yes, that's why those carriages..., damn! I missed a good opportunity!" He glanced at the dusk on the horizon angrily. Urging Mint: "Okay, go ahead and do it well!"

Minte was a little confused, so he answered and ran to the North District. When he saw several "magicians" waiting here, he was speechless. It seems that the military generals on East's side really may want to take the opportunity to weaken the strength of Noga's side.

Among the so-called magicians sent to assist the Nuojia Army, the most powerful one is a junior magician who must not be more than twenty years old, the other four magic apprentices and a potion apprentice. Among them was a timid and delicate girl, about the same age as Min Te, with a pale complexion. Her hands were clasped tightly in front of her chest, shaking slightly, making people wonder if she would faint in the next second.

The two junior magicians and one intermediate magician who stayed on East's side are all older and experienced people. The magic skills of Sauron and several other potion masters are not low, let alone a great magician. The teacher is in charge. Although there are more monsters in the west, the balance of power is so unbalanced. I hope that cautious guy in Jedda will not have any weird ideas.

Minte looked at everyone. He smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, everyone. We don't have to face the monsters directly. Noga's army will launch an attack from the front. What we need to do is to use seismology to create earth walls to drive the monsters to the determined place." He pulled out a map. Show it to everyone: "It is the northwest side of the town. It is a piece of land at the junction of Noga and Vana. The terrain here is flat. It is most suitable for besieging Warcraft. We only need to drive the Warcraft over. The height of the earth wall is about one meter. Half to two meters is more suitable. With everyone’s strength, it shouldn’t be a problem. Maybe we need to use the fireball technique. I will issue the order when the time comes. Everyone just listen to my order."

The girl and several other young people breathed a sigh of relief. The junior magician responded casually. Mint put away the map. I was about to say something more. But he saw Jada walking over with a tired expression on his face. Then he smiled and asked: "Your Excellency, how are you preparing for things? Do you have enough arrows, oil and fire?"

Jada nodded: "Everything is ready. Fortunately...most of the armaments were in the North District. Otherwise, the soldiers would not dare to run back to the military camp to transport things!" He glanced at the "magicians" with a serious look. He smiled coldly. The young apprentice blushed. He asked timidly in a low voice: "Your Majesty the Duke. Why are you laughing?"

"Why are you laughing?" Jada's mouth was full of sarcasm. "You can tell at a glance. I should have guessed that East wouldn't really be kind enough to help." He glanced at Minter. "Send these little characters to die? Fortunately, they can do it! Didn't you say there is a great magician? Why not let him come?! We have to face the monsters and enemies directly!"

As soon as he finished speaking. The young apprentice's eyes were red. His face was full of grievances. Several other apprentices also looked at him angrily. Instead, the junior magician sneered: "Your Excellency, you think we have embarrassed you? You are kidding! Young and powerful magicians like us are already elites in the academy. Why do you look down on us?!"

Jada narrowed her eyes. Upon seeing this, Minte hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Excellency the Duke does not understand magic. That's why he misunderstood. Don't be angry, please rest for a while. It will be time to start the battle soon." The young magician glanced at him. He snorted coldly. He walked to the side and sat down. Rest with your eyes closed. Several other apprentices looked at each other. Ignore Jada either. I just found a place to sit down.

Minter pulled Jada over and asked after walking far away: "Are you crazy? Why do you say such things?!"

Jada wiped her sweat and said bitterly: "Don't think I can't see it! Originally, it didn't matter if you didn't send a magician, but while smiling and saying that you would send someone to help, you called... this kind of thing... "

"Do you think magicians can just grab a lot of them?!" Minte glared at him, "Time is so short, if there wasn't a big market here with magic materials and potion materials, even these might not be there It can be found! The great magician is responsible for finally trapping the monsters so that they can be burned to death. He needs to build a high and thick earth wall with a large area. It also needs to be maintained for a long time, and the magic power consumption is too high. He can't waste his magic power elsewhere! And there are more monsters in the western suburbs than here, so what does it matter if there are more people? With the bows and arrows of your Nuojia Army, these young magicians are enough!"

Hearing this, Jada's face softened a little: "Is it really enough? I think they are still children." Minte sneered: "I am a child too! Magic is different from martial arts. Many of them started in elementary school, don't underestimate it. They are dead, as long as they are commanded well, they will be no worse than your soldiers!"

Jada glanced at him suspiciously, but he pretended not to notice, and only asked the other party to talk about the arrangements for the battle later.

It didn't take long for the sky to darken. Some soldiers detected a magical beast approaching in the distance and immediately reported it to Jada. The latter hurriedly dropped a few instructions and rushed to the wall.

Several magic apprentices were very nervous when they saw this, and the girl even started to tremble. On the other hand, the young magician was calm, or perhaps more accurately, relaxed. Minte paid more attention to him and then went to comfort the others. When he saw the girl secretly looking at the monster in the distance, she started sobbing in fear. She couldn't listen to his comfort at all and couldn't help but feel a headache. After thinking for a while, he took out a few bottles of magic potion. He handed it to the girl and several other apprentices: "Drink this." The potion apprentice smelled it and his face changed: "Courage potion?! Where did this come from?!"

"Don't worry about the source, it's good stuff anyway." Minte turned to the girl, "Take a sip, it will make you feel better."

The potion apprentice drank it immediately, and others followed suit. The girl hesitated when she smelled the unpleasant smell, and the friend who came with her took the potion bottle away. He drank it hard. She choked a few times, but found that she was no longer shaking. It seemed to be really effective. When Minte saw this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

On the city wall, Jada looked at the monster and the three people getting closer and closer, her face as dark as water. The monsters that came under the city wall today, in addition to the dozen mutants, there are also about a dozen in their initial form, which should be the later batch. It's even more troublesome than before. However, the wall has been hastily reinforced and thickened. The original damaged areas have also been repaired and should be able to last for a long time. Maybe, he should trust Minte and the others more.

Esparo rode the Warcraft to a place only a hundred meters away from the city wall, and said with a smile: "How is it? Duke Jada? Have you made a decision?"

Jada said in a deep voice: "Before I reply to you, I need to know first where are those...monsters you left in Nomonka Land?!"

Esparo smiled: "Don't worry, those little cuties are in the mountains, they are just eggs. As long as you cooperate well, we will transport them to other places to hatch. Of course, if you are interested, you can You can raise a few."

A trace of disgust flashed across Jida's face, and she said: "How can I trust you? Who knows if you will release those monsters of yours to kill us after you have finished using us?!" From the corner of his eye, he saw Minte already leading As all the magicians climbed up quietly, crouched behind the wall, and when they were ready, they made a gesture behind them. Shade quickly conveyed the instructions, and all the soldiers drew their bows and nocked arrows, and dispersed to attack positions.

Under the city wall, Esparo spread his hands: "It's a pity that you have no choice but to believe in us. But don't worry, my master still needs human assistants. What is your decision? Just tell it!"

"My decision is..." Jada suddenly bared his teeth, "I don't agree!" After saying that, he waved his hand: "Fire the arrow!" The rockets shot towards the group of Warcraft like a meteor shower, and the fastest one shot from Shaide. Shooting Esparo in the face. The latter was startled, and was about to avoid it when a strong cold wind came from the side and blew the arrow away. Only then did he look gratefully at the man in black who took action, and said words of thanks.

The man in black ignored him and raised his cane high. As if receiving some order, the monsters immediately returned to their original position after being disrupted by the sudden rocket attack. They opened their mouths and roared in unison. Rush towards the city wall.

Upon seeing this, Minte immediately ordered preparations, and then glanced at Jada, who drew his bow and shot an arrow as promised, and inserted it thirty meters in front of the monster queue. Minte immediately shouted: "Action !" The magicians and apprentices took action one after another, using seismic techniques to build a wall of earth along the line where the arrow was. When the monster rushed over, it hit it and was bounced back. As the earthen walls moved forward, they gradually receded.

But after all, these young magicians are not Shaonan's trained magician troops, and their strength is also uneven. Therefore, the earth walls they conjured have fronts and backs, wide and narrow, and are not completely lined up in a row. Some monsters slipped through the gap and continued to rush forward. Seeing that they were about to reach the city wall, Jada quickly ordered the soldiers to fire rockets at them. At this time, the young apprentice suddenly became frightened, held her head and cried, and the earth wall she conjured up once again had a hole missing.

The young magician quickly filled the gap, then turned around and yelled: "What are you doing?! Is it time to cry now?! Why don't you get up quickly?!"

But the girl cried: "No, I don't want it! I don't want to see those disgusting things..."

Minte said angrily: "No one wants to see it! But if you back down now, you are irresponsible!"

"I don't want it, I don't want it, mom, where are you... I want to go home..." The girl cried louder and louder, hearing Jada's anger rising, and her ordering voice increased several times.

Minte was anxious and angry. The courage potion was gone. This girl didn't know which school she was from, but she was so timid. While he was working on his magic, he was still worrying about the solution.

At this time, the young magician suddenly laughed out loud, causing everyone to look at him, but he didn't care: "You don't want to see it? When they attack, even if you don't want to see it, you will see it especially... Clear! Maybe we can study its teeth. Are you interested in taking a walk in its belly?!"

The girl suddenly stopped crying and looked at the young magician with a horrified look on her face. Then she wiped the tears on her face carelessly, tremblingly conjured up a short earthen wall, and tripped the monster.

Minte breathed a sigh of relief and continued to direct everyone to cast magic. Jada gave the girl a sharp chop and gave the order again, but found that the archers did not attack as he intended, and his face darkened: "What's going on?!"
