When the orcs stepped through the Thunder God Fortress, the Beast King immediately ordered his most powerful mammoth army to attack the human Sunrise City and captured this port city of great significance to mankind. It turned out that Luke had planned a dawn Dawn planned to recapture Sunrise City, but Catherine's sudden attack caused the entire plan to abort, so the orcs and bears had enough time to plunder everything here, and slowly mastered important human shipbuilding and navigation technologies. From this moment on, the significance of the natural barrier of Thunder God Fortress has been completely lost, because the orcs and bears can ride the huge sea breeze from the sea to bypass the Hengduan Mountains at any time and reach any point on the east coastline of the Nantalun Prairie.
In order to establish an ocean route, the Beast King, under the advice of the prophet Evan, chose a location with good terrain on the east coast of the North Talon Prairie, spent a lot of manpower and material resources to build a port city, and named it according to the place name. It is called "Wanghai Cliff Castle". From here, it only takes ten days for the Orcs and Barbarian Bears to reach Sunrise City. If they are well prepared, they can even go all the way south to Seawind City.
The person responsible for garrisoning the port city Wanghai Cliff Castle is Lei, the leader of the Mammoth Legion. Not long ago, he was ordered to ship the captives captured by the Barbarian Bear Tribe in the Beitalon Prairie to the Star Luo Islands for their allies, the human lords. Senat used it, and now Lei got a new order, and the one who came to convey this order turned out to be the Beast King's confidant, Prophet Evan,
Because the Barbarian Bear Clan was severely weakened during the defense battle of the Imperial Capital, the Beast Emperor had to choose a strategy of shrinking defense and captured all the Nantalun Grasslands to the three major orcs who had already formed an alliance and were preparing to overthrow the rule of the Barbarian Bear Clan. clan, while the Barbarian Bear clan fully retreated to the north,
The three major orc clans occupying the lush water and grass are naturally unwilling to return to their original residence in the north where the living environment is harsh. After enjoying a comfortable life, the three major orc clans have become corrupted to varying degrees and continue to suffer from the severe cold. The miserable Barbarian Bear clan quietly went around fighting, annihilating other clans that refused to surrender one by one.
Four years later, after annexing more than 30 other orc clans, the Barbarian Bear Clan's military strength returned to its heyday, and the still and restless Beast King also received news from his ally Nicholas. , after making corresponding preparations, the Orc Bear Tribe has regrouped its forces at the Beast Blood Castle in the North Talon Grassland, preparing to go south to join the new war. The first problem they have to face is They are the three major orc clans blocking the Thunder God Fortress.
After learning about the news that the Barbarian Bear Clan was moving south, the leaders of the three major orc clans hurriedly gathered together. Unfortunately, they could not come up with a better solution after long discussions. They could only choose to station troops at the pass of the Thunder God Fortress and rely on the natural dangers here to resist. The Barbarian Bears went south, but it was their human enemies who did so in the first place. This has to be said to be a huge irony.
Just as the orcs were confronting each other, a huge change occurred in the south of the continent. Free Paradise, one of the three main forces of the Southern Freedom Alliance, under the leadership of its leader Chilaviv, announced that it would leave the alliance and make a new choice. They took a neutral route, and from that moment on, the leaders of the entire Free Paradise Merchant Alliance immediately disappeared without a trace. No matter how Senat and Mochizuki City searched, it was difficult to find their traces, and even if they wanted to deal with them, they were helpless. ,
Without the huge financial support from Free Paradise, the Southern Freedom Alliance immediately fell into trouble, and the first one to bear the brunt was Senat. If he could not find new support, then the 300,000 troops in Seck City would be hungry in three months. In order to solve this problem, Seike City once again adjusted the tax rate, making the tax revenue in Senat's ruled area reach an unprecedented 50%, and more than 80% of the annual tax revenue was invested in the military. , obviously this cannot last long, if Senat cannot launch a war in a short time, then his rule is likely to fall apart,
Wangyue City became very peaceful. The six-person council only held a long meeting for three days and three nights, and then there was no more movement. However, according to some vague rumors, the six-person council in Wangyue City There was a big quarrel at this meeting. They had never reached any consensus. The two different opinions collided violently, which eventually led to the split of the six-person discussion group. Of course, this kind of news cannot be verified. , and there didn’t seem to be any strange changes in the six-person discussion group, but after that meeting, the members of the six-person discussion group never gathered together again.
Ryan, who was in Cassano, did not pay attention to all the news in the south. He put all his thoughts on his plan to cultivate a legendary mage. Vivian and Adela were in the For a time, Ryan was forced to transfer to a magician, and with the help of the soul contract he signed with them, he lent Ryan's own magic power to them. Although Vivian and Adela could only borrow a small part of Ryan's power, but This is indeed a good start,
After establishing a clear relationship with the Elf Queen Freya, Freya quickly integrated into Ryan's life. Farasi and the others quickly accepted this new partner. Farasi herself was even vaguely proud of Ryan in her heart. You must know that not every man can win the heart of the Elf Queen. This is countless times more difficult than being promoted to the legendary realm.
After Ryan got Freya as his partner, he immediately got the wisdom she inherited from the elf queens of all generations. With Freya's help, Lane's entire "Legendary Mage Training Plan" went extremely smoothly, especially when it came to enchantment. In terms of skills, Ryan's level has been improving by leaps and bounds. After all, compared to the short few years that Ryan has learned this technology, the elves have spent tens of thousands of years on it. This kind of accumulation of years is not a genius mind. can make up for it,
Since Vivian was pregnant, Ryan only asked her to sit and meditate every day to maintain her understanding of magic. As for Adela, Ryan increased her training and even took the time to forge a new one for her. Armor, originally it is impossible for a magician to wear metal protective gear, because metal and magic elements are mutually exclusive, but Adela's own magical power is borrowed from Ryan, not owned by her, and Ryan is her The forged armor is entirely made of mithril, which is the only metal that is not repelled by elements. Naturally, it will not have any adverse effects on Adela's use of magic when wearing it.
After months of practice, Adela has become somewhat accomplished. When she wears a full-body mithril rune armor, holds Andrew's two-handed sword, and occasionally fires cold arrows during fierce battles, she will hit a large number of magic missiles at the enemy's vital points. At that time, even Seres had nothing to do with her. As long as he didn't use the Hydra long bow, the arrows shot by Seres would not be able to penetrate Adela's full-body mithril rune armor, and he Although it is possible to escape from Adela's melee attack range by relying on speed, it is difficult to avoid the blow of Ryan's original "missile storm". It is not just one or two missiles, but a full 24 missiles can be fired with a wave of the hand, directly. Covering any direction that Seres could avoid,
On Barbara's side, Ryan selected a hundred hard-working and loyal magic apprentices, and Barbara was naturally among them. These people were all descendants of Cassano's people, and their families could have Today's happy life is all because of Ryan's arrival, so he is naturally trustworthy. Through the secret ritual obtained from Galib, Ryan signed a magic contract with these 100 magic apprentices, and then lent his magic power to them.
Due to the previous lessons, Ryan did not sign the soul contract like Vivian and Adela, but maintained a master-servant relationship with these magic apprentices. Only by relying on Ryan could they borrow his magical power from here, and Once these people have the idea of betraying Ryan, Ryan will know it immediately, and the entire channel for borrowing mana will be terminated immediately.
In this way, of course, Barbara and the others did not get as much benefit as Adela and the others, but it was enough for these magic apprentices to reach an amazing level. When Barbara followed the method recorded in Ryan's diary, After a period of practice, she can also release seven magic missiles or three fireballs at once like Ryan did before. And because these 100 apprentices have signed a magic contract with Ryan, their minds can be easily adjusted. Together, when using "combined magic circle casting", they have a tacit understanding with each other, and can already skillfully release seventh-level magic, which has almost reached the top level of the magister, and Barbara's Death Scythe Magic Legion I finally have the strength to compete with high-level magicians.
The progress of drawing the magic circle on the human body was also very smooth. Lane's first experimenter was Bard, a bard who had been dawdling around for most of his life after joining Lane. After learning that he might break through the limit, he He agreed without hesitation, and fully cooperated with Ryan to draw the magic circle with a special magic ink on his chest, back, arms, thighs, etc., in order to prevent any change in the position of the lines before the ink dried. , Bud actually maintained the same posture for three full days. Even Ryan admired his perseverance.
After Bard walked onto the practice field with an uneasy mood, he quickly became excited. Since Ryan drew a energy-gathering magic circle on him, it was equivalent to turning Bard's body into a piece of magic. Objects, he can use his usual time to slowly gather the magic elements around him together, and then release them when needed.
Although Bard can currently only release twenty fireballs or one hundred magic missiles at one time, and can also choose three level 5 magic pyrotechnics, this is not all of his strength. As long as Bard practices diligently every day, You can slowly increase the upper limit of your own mana storage, which means that he still has a lot of potential in the future.
After several months of busy work, Ryan finally waited for his happiest moment. With the cry of "Wow!", Ryan's first child was born into the world. This day was the third day of the 207th year of the Bright Calendar. On the eleventh day of the month, in the south on the same day, Senat, the lord of Seike City, once again launched a military attack on the territory of the imperial capital, blowing the horn of this catastrophe.
