The battle with the Wild Boar King was not the most dangerous battle this winter. The truly most dangerous battle was the battle against the ogre camp.
Darland has a group of ogres who live in the mountains on the edge of the swamp. Baron Dahl never thought of attacking them in the past. Although the ogres are called this, they don't actually feed on humans. They just occasionally go down the mountain to capture one or two people to improve their food. Naturally, they capture farmers and the like. , it is really insignificant to Darling; secondly, the ogre is very powerful and the location of the camp is also very dangerous, so he has no confidence.
How strong are these ogres exactly? He didn't know it clearly, but he was certain that there was a shaman among them.
An ogre tribe with a shaman is completely different from one without a shaman. The latter is probably still close to a beast, and the former is almost a barbarian. Beasts and barbarians of the same strength are extremely dangerous.
The camp of the ogre tribe is not easy to attack. It is located on the mountainside, and there is only a steep mountain road to get there. If you are not a hunter who walks in the mountains all year round, you are afraid that you will fall into the valley before you reach it, and even your whole body will be killed. Don't even think about leaving any corpses. Since then, the hundreds of elite soldiers that Darling was so proud of were useless. Even among the shooters, only one-third at most could successfully cross this steep mountain road.
After crossing the mountain road, how was the ogre's camp arranged? How many ogres are there? In addition to shamans, how many people have advanced to become ogre warriors? Is there an ogre chieftain? Is there a legendary two-headed ogre
He knew none of this.
Baron Dahl is a businessman who can do business but not fight. However, he does not think that he is omnipotent because he is smart like some famous fools in history. He has to dictate everything. Whenever he marches and fights, he completely listens. The arrangements made by the old knight of my family were done with an attitude of trusting others - of course, to be honest, there was nothing suspicious. Everyone was from the Dahl family, and if they didn't even trust their own relatives, then who would they trust
Although the old knight is old and can no longer go out to slay monsters this winter, the experience he has accumulated for many years will not be lost as his body ages, but will become stronger as he gets older. He has already carefully analyzed all the monsters and monsters in the territory and listed several sets of combat strategies. When facing the enemy in battle, as long as he follows the strategies, even if he cannot win, he will not be defeated.
In his strategy, there is only one strategy for the ogre camp: unless the ogres themselves cause trouble, they just need to guard the foot of the mountain and try to lure the ogres out. If you can't draw it out, you'd rather give up than go up the mountain.
Most of the knights in Darland are students of this old knight, or even his nephews, so naturally they will not disobey him. What's more, even if they want to disobey, Baron Dahl himself will not agree. So after the group of people swept through the entire territory and almost eliminated all kinds of dangerous monsters, they originally wanted to return in triumph.
But at this moment, they felt the terrifying power passing through the sky and walking away far away.
"Dragon?!" The first person to react was the old priest. He used to work in Void City and had frequent contacts with the church's knights. He had seen the knight leader flying past on a giant dragon more than once. At that time, that The feeling the giant dragon gave him was quite similar to that at this moment.
... No, it is a bit weaker than it is now, probably because he is restrained by Lord Gerald and does not dare to show off his power.
In other words, is this a giant dragon flying over everyone's head
At this time, everyone had raised their heads and looked into the sky, but they could only see dark clouds in the sky, and the scene high in the sky could not be seen anywhere.
However, the astonishing power just now cannot be faked.
Don’t you see that all the pack horses in the team are so frightened that their legs are weak and they are lying on the ground and dare not move? Apart from the giant dragon, what else could have such majesty
"Why is there a giant dragon passing by?" Baron Dahl was not far away from the priests at the moment. Hearing the old priest's words, he said in confusion, "We have never seen a giant dragon here before."
"Perhaps they are just passing by." The mage accompanying the army said, "The young dragon often wanders around, searching for treasures. It is not surprising to pass by occasionally."
"What treasures can we have in this small place of ours?"
The military mage shook his head, he really didn't know this.
If he knew what treasures there were here, he would have secretly dug them out himself, and there would be nothing left for the dragon to collect!
"Sir... I feel like the dragon just came... from the direction of the mountain where the ogres live." A knight suddenly said, "Could it have just robbed the ogres?"
After saying this, everyone was stunned.
Although it is a bit absurd, it makes sense if you think about it carefully. That group of ogres had been occupying the hilltop for many years, and they might have accumulated something precious, which attracted the dragon to become a robber.
A group of ogres is naturally very powerful to the Darling, but to the dragon, what does it mean
Thinking of this, everyone felt relieved.
In any case, those ogres were a nuisance to the Darland. The dragon killed them. This is a good thing!
Baron Dar lowered his head and pondered.
He thought for a while and looked at the thief who had been hired at a high price, but immediately moved away to the two rangers from the Mask of the Void Church.
"I have something, and I want to ask you two for a favor." He smiled first, and then said, "I want to ask you two to go to the ogre camp to check out the ogres. Are they in a mess? Are there any opportunities we can take advantage of? "
Finally, he expressed his plan.
The old knight who was my distant uncle said that to deal with the ogres, they must not go up the mountain unless something happens to them.
In other words, if the ogres themselves cause trouble, it is not impossible for a few elites to destroy them.
The two rangers were not as fancy as him, but they already understood what he meant. They looked at each other and then looked at the Kabbalah priest.
The priests of the Church of the Mask of the Void, this priest is the leader of this trip.
"If your body can bear it, there's nothing wrong with a trip." The Kabbalah priest immediately said, "But you must pay attention to safety and deal with those group of ogres. There will be many opportunities in the future. If it doesn't work, I can request help from the headquarters in a few days. good… "
With his words, the two rangers naturally felt confident, said hello and left on horseback. About an hour later, I returned to the team.
The news they brought confirmed everyone's guesses.
The group of ogres was attacked by a giant dragon. The camp was now in chaos, and it seemed that the leading shaman was dead.
After receiving the news, Baron Dahl immediately gritted his teeth and made up his mind.
This opportunity cannot be missed, he wants to attack the ogre camp!
