"The seven settlements in the east have all been evacuated. According to the scout's report, he saw with his own eyes a several-kilometer-long team heading towards the Yuluter Valley." Commander Trinoqi pointed at the map and told Sias Akane and others said: "The situation in the north and south is similar. It is estimated that it will take two days to completely withdraw. As for the situation in the west, because of the long distance, the last information sent back was one and a half days ago. If everything goes well, the latest intelligence will reach us in the next few hours."
After Cuinuoqi said this, he couldn't help but smile and said: "These fishmen are really stupid. They are fleeing, evacuating, not moving. According to intelligence, these idiots actually moved the people in the settlement. Everyone moved away, and there were even people dragging huge and heavy shells and nuts. Haha, if they hadn't brought too many things, their walking speed wouldn't have been so slow. If I had 3,000 people on hand, then Coupled with the interchangeable seahorse mount, I am confident that I can ambush and annihilate these fishmen on the road."
"Haha, that's right." Siassi replied with a smile: "Although these fishmen are brave and fierce, their brains are really not very useful."
"Yes." Commander Cuinuoqi also said with a smile: "If it is 1 to 1, these strong fish-man warriors are not inferior to our Naga warriors. If they are fish-man berserkers, their combat power is even better than that of ordinary Naga warriors. The additional warriors are even more powerful, but they rely solely on their own bravery to fight and do not pay attention to coordination at all. Therefore, as long as the number of both sides exceeds a hundred people in a melee, we Nagas almost have an advantage. If both sides dispatch a main force of a thousand people, then I am absolutely sure to annihilate the enemy army with less than 30% of the losses. As for if there are 10,000 or even 100,000 soldiers..."
"Report, the latest information from the west." Before Trinoqi finished speaking, he heard a rapid but somewhat suppressed voice from the distance. He stopped chatting and looked up, and saw two Naga warriors using their strength. He supported a Naga scout who was pale and tired and ran towards him quickly. When the three Naga warriors came to Trinoqi, the scout among them was too tired to speak. , Siassi nodded to a high-level priest next to her, and the priest who believed in the goddess of the sea released a fatigue-relieving magic for the scout.
When the magic was fully effective, the Naga scout's face turned a little red. He puffed up his chest and spoke to Commander Trinoqi in a tone of suppressed sadness: "Emergency military information, we are in Urutel During the reconnaissance in the western part of the valley, a team of unknown origin was discovered. Their direction of travel was towards the Yulutl Valley. The captain felt that this team was very suspicious, so he took us a little closer and wanted to The exploration was clearer, but who knew that we were discovered only 500 meters away from the target. The captain and others led people to fight to the death to cut off my back, they all... "
After the Naga scout said this, a few tears flowed down his face. Then he took out a reflection crystal from his arms and said to Commander Trinoqi: "This is the reflection we captured. Commander, please talk to Ms. Siassi." Check."
"There is such a thing." Siassi and Trinoqi looked at each other, and their hearts were equally full of doubts. Trinoqi personally took the precious reflection crystal from the scout's hands that his colleagues had exchanged with blood and life, and then He took out a base made of mithril from the storage pocket in his arms, and gently placed the crystal on it. There was a groove on the mithril base, which could fit tightly when the reflection crystal was inserted. After piecing it together, Trinoqi softly recited an activation spell, activating the magic circle on the mithril base.
Siassi knew that this kind of reflection crystal was specially used by military scouts. They must be activated through a special base and a specific spell. This thing is extremely precious. Usually, the captain of the scout team who is ordered to go out can only carry one. For conveying extremely important information, or leaving precious clues for the search team when the entire team is about to be wiped out,
Under the operation of the magic array on the mithril base, the reflection crystal emits a faint light curtain upwards, and then an image appears on the light curtain. The entire image is not very clear, but a burly figure can still be identified. The lizard man roared out from the team 500 meters away. In just a few seconds, the lizard man came nearby.
One Naga scout drew his weapon and tried to resist, but was beheaded by the lizard man with a knife. Another Naga scout hugged the lizard man from behind, obviously intending to use his body to protect his companions. Escape to buy time, but the lizard man held a weird scimitar and pierced it under his ribs. Then a white light flashed, and the Naga scout holding his body had two arms cut off, and then the lizard man The man waved his arm and bounced away the scout who had lost his combat effectiveness.
At this time, the entire image suddenly shook a few times, and then the perspective began to move away from the lizard man. It was obviously the Naga scout captain who handed the image crystal to his companion and asked him to evacuate quickly. In the increasingly blurry image, the Naga scout captain waved two daggers and stopped in front of the lizard man without hesitation. The entire image gradually dimmed and turned black in a very short time. , and then countless cracks suddenly appeared on the originally smooth surface of the reflection crystal. Only a soft sound of "click" was heard, and the entire reflection crystal turned into a useless fragment and scattered on the ground.
Siassi and the others watched the entire image in silence. After a while, Commander Trinoqi said: "Let us mourn for the brave warriors who sacrificed their lives heroically." Everyone lowered their heads in sorrow, for that The scout captain and his two companions mourned in silence, and the Naga scout who was ordered to carry the reflection crystal burst into tears. After the ceremony was completed, Commander Trinoqi comforted the surviving scout with a few words, Let someone take him down to rest and recuperate.
"At least he is also a weapons master. A weapon master who is proficient in this kind of strange weapon must either be the type to impress others, or he must have some unique fighting style." A Naga weapon master under Shiassi said. He spoke: "I visually estimated that it was about 500 meters from the team to the scouts. It only took less than 4 seconds for the lizard man to come over. This speed alone was already faster than mine. As for his two swords Killing two scouts, his attacks were ruthless and ruthless. I believe it’s impossible that his hands wouldn’t be stained with blood. Knowing that I couldn’t think of a famous weapons master for a moment.”
"Those who are powerful may not necessarily be famous. Aren't you all like this?" Siassi spoke. She first praised her subordinates with one sentence, and then continued: "The key question is this The lizardmen are by no means the strongest in that team. The weapon masters attack quickly and fiercely, but they don't seem to be good at detecting the concealed scouts, especially since the two sides are so far apart."
"That's right." A great electrical Naga mage also spoke: "I vaguely felt some kind of elusive mana fluctuations from that team. Unfortunately, the reflection crystal cannot faithfully reproduce all of this. , but as far as I know, if you want to detect a scout who has concealed his whereabouts 500 meters away, you must be very good at this skill and use the two factors of detection magic to detect. The former means that there is at least one person in that team. An assassin or shadow thief who has reached the peak of his strength. In the case of the latter, well, at least a great magister, or even multiple great magisters taking turns to cast spells can maintain magic like the 'Magic Eye'. "
This analysis result was recognized by everyone present, so everyone's eyes were focused on Cuinuoqi and Siassi, waiting for their two decisions. Cuinuoqi was very unwilling in his heart, and the entire battle plan was progressing smoothly. It went well, but at this moment a very powerful mysterious team appeared, and judging from the ruthless killing of the Naga scouts by the other party, they were probably hostile to us. If we continue in this situation, Launching an attack on the Yuluter Valley, it is very likely that a head-on collision with this mysterious team will occur, and a completely uncertain battle will take place on a familiar ground. This is a taboo in war. If you are not careful, it may lead to complete disaster. The end of the army being annihilated,
So Commander Cui Nuoqi sighed. He looked around and saw the same expression as his on the faces of other people. However, as the commander of the entire battle plan, Cui Nuoqi still held back his desire to take a chance. Impulsively, he said in a regretful tone: "The enemy situation has changed now. Although it is a pity, we must suspend the next attack plan..."
Before Commander Cuinuoqi finished speaking, he heard a sinister tone: "Is it a pity? I must say it is not a pity at all. I think it was you guys who were massacring the fishmen here some time ago. Well, very good, let me finish you off together today."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. The entire camp was surrounded by patrolling Naga warriors. Moreover, among the many strong men, none of them noticed that they were being approached by the enemy. When their eyes fell on the man who appeared to speak, they immediately discovered that He was the lizard man who had just slaughtered several Naga scouts. Siassi almost immediately felt a kind of pressure from the lizard man that was very similar to that of her teacher. She immediately screamed: "Be careful, he is not a weapons master at all, but a legendary strongman."
