On the 43rd of the recovery month, it was clear, light wind, and good visibility.
Jinna, the Griffin Knight, drove his partner for eight years to cover the Elven Giant Eagle across the clear sky.
The scene of the land below was clearly presented in Jin Na's sight. She saw that the land scorched by the flames and the calibration beam was scorched black, and there were terrible bomb craters all over the scorched earth, and a few wisps of smoke were still rising from between the bomb craters. And in the land far to the north, the figure of a shambling giant can be vaguely seen.
This is the trace of war, a war like never before, where machines and monsters have torn the land apart and will continue to do so.
The shape of war has changed—a knight who once served Viscount Leslie understood it all too well. She changed from a messenger for the nobles to an aerial scout of the Cecil Legion, and rode a griffin all the way from the south to the north. She overlooked the war, the battlefield ravaged by the war machine, and sighed with emotion. The change in my own life is feeling the change in the form of war.
The knights charging on horseback have been replaced by chariots roaring with artillery fire, and the soldiers wearing simple armor who charge indiscriminately have also become magical combat soldiers comparable to extraordinary people. Many new things have replaced the old things, and the Griffin Knight will again When will it be replaced
A cloud of mist floated from nearby, and the giant elf eagle on the side slightly adjusted its flight direction. Jin Na also immediately adjusted the auxiliary reins of the griffin to keep up with the figures of the elf allies.
Griffin Knights are one of the few "old-age units" in the Cecil Legion. Due to their unique flying ability, there is no new unit to replace them. These knights soaring in the sky are still the best messengers and Scouts, many companions are also quite proud of this, but Jin Na always has a premonition that that incredible duke will come up with something that can replace the griffin sooner or later, and she, who only knows how to control the griffin, will be able to do it again at that time. What kind of embarrassing situation is there
I usually read more books... It is also convenient to find a new job.
Some distracted thoughts flashed through her mind, and the female knight hurriedly raised her hand and patted her cheek, forcing herself to focus on the task.
We haven't penetrated into hostile territory yet, but we still can't let our guard down. Although griffins fly in the sky, those extraordinarily powerful druse giants have the ability to strike the air with lightning-two unskilled griffin riders are already executing it. She died during a reconnaissance mission, and Jin Na didn't want to be the third.
The female knight adjusted her posture on the saddle, and glanced at the hangers on both sides of the special large saddle, on which was installed a new type of equipment prepared for the Griffin Knight: a weapon capable of firing extended-range arcane spells. The missile's magic terminal is used for self-defense, and a clasp connected to a wire rope—pull the clasp, and two ten-kilogram recrystallized bombs hanging on both sides of the Griffin's shoulders and necks will be thrown to the ground for attack.
In the eyes of the Griffin Riders, this is a very satisfying and even surprising good thing, but the Duke seems not satisfied with it. Jin Na once heard the Duke talking about the load-carrying capacity of the Griffon under extremely accidental circumstances. It's still not enough, ten kilograms is an aerial bomb, etc. I don't understand...
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded beside Jin Na's ear: "The red line is about to be crossed, be vigilant."
Jin Na raised her head and saw that the giant elven eagle that was the leader of the team had begun to climb, and the high-ranking messenger riding on the eagle's back slightly opened his hands—a light blue magic aura centered on the giant eagle Spreading out in all directions, the three griffins guarding the giant eagle were immediately protected by the power of the wind element, and they easily kept up with the height and speed of the giant eagle.
The giant eagle knights of the elves have better ground observation ability and flying ability, and are more qualified scouts than the griffon knights, but they have poor load-bearing capacity, so that they almost lose weight after bringing a thin elf. They can't carry more loads, and naturally they can't carry any self-defense weapons and protective gear. At the same time, these elf allies are extremely valuable. It can be said that the few giant eagle knights can't afford to lose any of them. Therefore, in the recent reconnaissance mission, The commander began to arrange for heavily armed Griffon Knights to serve as the guards of the giant eagle—the Cecil-style Griffin Knights had thin steel plates hanging on their chest and abdomen, shield generators on their bodies, and weapons capable of ground-to-air , the pure combat power is far stronger than the giant eagle.
The howling wind swept past the shield, leaving only a breeze blowing on the faces of the knights. The entire scouting team quickly raised their altitude, and soon reached the bottom of the cloud layer. At this height, the eyes of both humans and griffins can no longer capture the details on the ground—even with eagle eye, so the specific observation task depends on the elf messenger and her... eagle-shaped dove To be done.
There was a light blue gleam in Sonia Frostleaf's eyes. She cast a spell that could enhance her eyesight on her "cuckoo", and then shared the vision from the giant eagle-this is a long-term training and cooperation. Because wild birds will immediately fall into confusion after suddenly gaining enhanced vision, and cannot accurately judge their true height. Among the giant eagles raised by the elves, nearly two-thirds of the eagles will be unable to adapt to this. He was eliminated due to spells and could not become a scouting partner.
If the poorly gifted "Cuckoo" hadn't been trained by the Thornheart Master, who is best at training giant eagles, he would have been eliminated long ago.
If only Master Briarheart hadn't kept so many pigeons in Moon Valley...
Sonia sighed for no reason in her heart, and then the corner of her eye suddenly caught a little abnormality on the ground below.
"Attention, there is a situation on the surface of the front right—the sunny side of the hill."
There seems to be a battle going on there.
Hundreds of crystal cluster giants are gathering beside the small hill, besieging a huge figure that landed on the hillside, arcane arcs are constantly shining in the air, and the one being besieged is a Winged, bulky, and covered in black scales…
It looks like a dragon.
Sonia judged the threat within the visible range, and then used the wind spell to issue an order: "The team pays attention, prepare to lower the height and observe, and increase vigilance."
Several griffin knights responded immediately, and Jin Na also pressed a leaf-shaped metal piece to her lips: "Got it, we are on alert."
This leaf-shaped metal piece is not a new type of communicator made by Cecil—the Griffon Knight's communication equipment is fixed on the saddle. Although it is already the most advanced small magic net terminal, it still weighs two kilograms. The "leaf" in her hand was given by the elf, which allows the holder to use the "Wind Words" near the "messenger". Although there are many restrictions, it is quite useful in this mixed team with the elf messenger as the core. convenient.
After the height was lowered, more details came into Sonia's eyes—she could see clearly that the besieged one should indeed be a dragon, at least in appearance, but the dragon was thinner and smaller than the dragon she knew, and the wings also looked like a dragon. There are some twisted weirdness.
The situation of that dragon is obviously not good. Although its power is stronger than that of the cluster giant, it is already outnumbered at this time. It uses its fangs and claws to fight against the enemies that keep coming up, and occasionally it can emit a flame breath, but always A cluster giant attacked from a dead corner, adding a new wound to the dragon that fell on the ground.
"Is that a dragon?" The escorted Griffin Knight exclaimed, "I've only heard of it from stories!!"
"Why did this legendary creature also appear on this battlefield?"
"Ms. Shuangye, what should we do? Do you want rescue?"
Sonia Frostleaf thought quickly—on the battlefield, you can't simply think that "the enemy of your enemy is your friend", but a black dragon besieged by a cluster giant still makes people pay too much attention. Why is this dragon besieged? Why are you here? What did he or she know and see? These problems made the high-ranking messenger realize that he couldn't just sit back and watch the black dragon die here.
In any case, compared with the crystal cluster giants who are clearly enemies, the dragons in the elves' records are at least neutral to the mainland.
But only one scouting team is not enough to deal with so many druse giants.
"Report to the command first. Miss Jinna, you guys find a way to attract the attention of those giants and reduce the pressure on the black dragon. I will guide that dragon to break through—"
While speaking, Sonia had directly used the powerful communication spell of the messenger to contact the headquarters far behind—she briefly explained the incredible incident she had encountered, called for support from the rear, and agreed on a rough breakout direction, and then followed Behind the escorting Griffin Riders, the altitude was lowered again.
…
Maggie could feel the wounds, the heat, the pain, and it was becoming more and more unbearable—and so was the dragon.
She knew that her physical strength was rapidly draining, but she could no longer see the hope of breaking through.
Perhaps at the moment when he was struck by the arcane lightning and fell, his end was already doomed.
The deformed and weak wings are destined to not be able to fly too high—but Maggie still can't figure out how those crystal cluster monsters transformed from civilians and mediocre nobles have such strong air defense awareness and anti-air capabilities? !
How did they train their accuracy!
However, no matter how upset she was, as the situation worsened, Maggie knew her time was running out.
In the end, she failed Victoria.
An ugly druse giant launched a sneak attack from the left side. This is an exceptionally powerful fighter. It pounced like a gust of wind. Maggie blocked the blow with a powerful tail sweep, and then a burst of flames swept the enemy away. Burned to ashes, but a sharp pain came from the right side of her body - a dastardly spellcaster fired an arcane arc into the gap in her defense.
"You deformed monsters!" Maggie roared, shouting the words she was least willing to hear, "Deformed! Deformed! Deformed!"
However, the crystal clusters didn't care about these at all, they surged up again.
Maggie shrank her defenses, preparing to generously greet death with a thunderous counterattack, but at this moment, she suddenly heard a voice beside her ear: "Hold on! We're here to help you!"
This seems to be the wind language of the elves
Maggie was stunned for a moment, and then heard two consecutive deafening explosions coming from a distance—boom! Boom!
The explosion landed far away, and almost didn't affect the cluster giant at all. However, the mutated monsters were instantly diverted and looked at the direction of the explosion and the nearby sky—I don't know if it was an illusion. Maggie even felt that the reaction of those monsters was almost "startled".
Then, she saw the black shadows approaching rapidly from the sky.
A giant elven eagle and three human griffins.
What kind of strange combination is this
Feng Yushu came again: "Can dragons on the ground still fly?"
At this time, many cluster giants had been diverted. While dealing with the remaining enemies, Maggie responded with dragon language magic: "Can't take off."
"Understood, I will show you the direction, and follow me to break through—we are the vanguard reconnaissance team of the Cecil Legion."
In an instant, Maggie fell into great consternation: Cecil? Cecil's army? !
Why is the Cecilian army in this place? When did they get to this place? This is already a polluted area that has completely fallen. How did those Cecils get in? !
However, the astonishment returned to the astonishment in her heart, and Maggie's physical reaction still did not fall at all. She responded to the help of the strange elf almost immediately, and began to try to break through in the direction indicated by the other party, and at the same time said anxiously: "Boulder City needs support! The Duke of Jing and the last mountain army are still resisting! But they can't last long!"
It was a huge surprise to meet the Cecilian army here, but this accident made Maggie realize one thing: if the main force of these southerners has already arrived here, if they can fight all the way here, maybe Boulder City can still be saved!
The strange elf quickly responded, which made Maggie feel a little relieved: "Got it, I will report it immediately—but you'd better survive and explain the situation to Duke Cecil in person."
"I'll survive."
More attacks fell from the sky—including bright arcane missiles, and something that sent out a huge explosion.
A large number of crystal cluster giants were attracted by the attack from the sky, and Maggie's pressure suddenly eased. At the same time, she also saw those crystal cluster giants launch a counterattack against the griffins in the sky—they spread rapidly Open, while strafing the sky with dense and intersecting arcane arcs, constantly trying to block the flight path of the Griffon Knights, and those Griffin Knights kept shuttling between the Arcane Arcs with surprising skill, launching round after round A round of attacks—
Things like this seem to be the norm.
Under the guidance of the strange elves, Maggie rushed towards the south of the battlefield, and a question suddenly arose in her mind:
During the 30-odd days that Boulder City was besieged, how much has this battlefield changed
