Vol 3 Chapter 16

Scene 16 Lumberyard Scramble (3)

Cavemen in the logging yard quickly discovered that a team of adventurers appeared on the other side of the riverbank-a combination of warriors, two crossbowmen and wizards, a configuration that is common in both Eruin and Cruz. The emergence of this group of humans was undoubtedly a stimulus for the creatures with strong territorial consciousness, and the camp soon heard a sharp whistle and the sound of the wooden door squeaking and opening. Underground creatures Outflowing, about two teams of more than thirty cavemen wading towards the river beach.

They split in two ways, trying to double-team. The adventurer apparently noticed the movement here, the crossbowman put two arrows, missed one, and the other shot did not cause any effect. The crossbow shot hit a caveman's chest, huge. The impact force made it take a step back and splash in the river water-but that's all. The caveman shook his head and raised his spear to follow the team again.

"The skin is really thick," Kellenia, who was hiding in the bush, frowned. "It is true that the rumor is true. It is difficult to deal with a thing like a thousand, even a hundred."

"It's fast. It's almost three hundred feet from the river to this side. They only took a few seconds." Yuta replied, "This speed is really scary, faster than the best cavalry!"

"Faster than the best cavalry?" The head of the tall Firefighting Corps smiled indifferently. "That's the best cavalry you haven't seen, Miss Yuta."

The head of the red-haired mercenary suffocated, and immediately looked back at the guy.

But Brando nodded, and the caveman was about as fast as the second-line cavalry. Slower than the best horses. But the most outstanding cavalry of Warnde are not mounted on war horses. For example, Alluin's strongest air cavalry patrol cavalry-this name describes the way these knights crossed the battlefield, calm and indifferent-in fact, it is saying The Dragoon Cavalry Regiment, which has a formation in each of the Legion, is often the elite of the air cavalry.

"Don't fight," Kerenhia interrupted the conversation between Fern and the headwoman. "Look, there are at least two hundred cavemen in that lumberyard. Such a huge number, no matter what Our mercenaries can't afford it-- "said the middle-aged man, shaking his head, his silver hair shining brightly in the sunlight between the woodlands:" Master, do you have any countermeasures? "

His gaze turned on Brando intentionally or unintentionally.

Antitina snorted slightly, and she could see the guy's intentions clearly. Indeed, relying on the strength of Brando and Akane, even if it is a positive breakthrough, it will not seem difficult, and the two golds are basically no problem against one hundred black iron. There are still many mercenaries and the help of the three big commanders. At most two hours, they can storm the logging field.

But if these guys are led away by these guys, then Lord Lord still has no prestige at all. Besides, she looked at Brando's calm face, and she knew that the young man she had been following must have been a success.

Therefore, the nobleman replied coldly: "Cavemen are not good at siege. Sir Ron of Basol went deep into dealing with these creatures, and clearly described the habits of these creatures in his book. Ability is most affected in this kind of river beach, and even the best way to excavate tunnels is lost, no matter how thick their skins are and how fast they can run, as long as we win the logging yard and turn to defend , They have nothing to do. "

Fern looked back at Brando and replied with a little surprise: "Is this still the case? The Lord Lord chose this place as the offensive weapon, did he also consider this?"

Brando heard that although his face remained calm, he could not help cramping his lips, and secretly said that this really wasn't there.

The location of the logging site near the river is actually a common phenomenon. One is to facilitate downstream transportation, and the other is to build a watermill to drive the sawmill with water power. After all, the magic power is still rare in these remote areas. Stuff.

But his research on such a place like Tonigel is not much. It can be known that there are four logging farms near Fir City. The state of these logging farms is only known by ghosts.

"The countermeasures are there," Brando nodded. "It depends on how much strength our bait can draw from each other." The young man turned back and smiled at these nominal subordinates. "But you can relax, this time. The battle is not as difficult as you think. Think of it as a mercenary warm-up. "

warm up?

Not only the three chiefs were present, but also the heads of many small mercenary regiments. More than three hundred mercenaries faced more than two hundred cavemen. What kind of warm-up is this? It seems that it is a bitter battle that is evenly matched.

"Just wait and see." Brando settled down, his eyes falling on the beach. The battle on the river beach has just begun at this moment. When the 'adventurists' noticed the caveman's intention, they began to retreat to the forest. Been caught up on the edge of the forest for a long time.

However, the sorcerer in the team immediately struck the ground with his staff, and spoke a spell aloud, "Wow," the pebbles and dirt at their feet rose off the ground and lifted up the four, and the soil rose to form an almost two meters The three-meter-high castle—the chest wall and the duokou are readily available, and the city is made of hard earth and stone—guarding four people in the center.

Fortification.

Everyone was taken aback. The three-circle spell in the magic of the law about the protection of short sentences can almost have such an effect-although it is far from the realm of the legendary wizard who shaped the city out of nothing, But at least it can be proven that the wizard on the court has at least the strength of the black iron peak.

Who is so luxurious.

Everyone else turned around and wanted to see who was willing to send his wizard of the Third Ring Rule to the front line as a bait. But only Kellenia caught a careless smile on Fern's face.

"Fern, is that yours?" He asked in a low voice.

The head of the Fire Corps nodded indifferently. "Maffery is the best wizard in my regiment," he replied.

"You're really willing." After confirming what was in her mind, Clencia didn't feel relieved, but instead developed a sense of crisis. The silver-haired middle-aged man looked at the tall, silent Fern, and then looked at the silent Brando, and suddenly felt his position shaken.

At first he spent the longest time fighting alongside that young lord in that night's battle, thinking that he should have no problem making a first impression in front of Brando through his performance. Unexpectedly, this veteran who looked dumb and honest with Pakistani had unknowingly reached a tacit understanding with the young man.

Maybe what agreement was reached.

Clenthia whispered in her heart, and gritted her teeth. But immediately his gaze was subconsciously attracted by the battle at the edge of the forest-when Maffery cast a fortification, he retreated behind the soldiers and crossbowmen to rest, and the middle-aged mage leaned on his cane and panted heavily. Qi, the three-circle spell obviously consumed his great physical strength and energy.

But the effect is also obvious.

As Antitina said, cavemen are not good at siege. These creatures from the ground have strong hind legs, but their forelimbs are short and thin. They often do not rely on the strength of their upper limbs when they attack, because the forelimbs are only Come to use tools and hold the spear tightly. When the caveman launches the attack, he uses the strength of his hind limbs to attack the enemy by transforming the potential energy.

However, a wall barrier caused them great trouble. The two-meter-high walls were not high, but the cavemen found that once they leaped high to prepare to attack those humans, they were greeted by a gleaming sword— — And they have no way to dodge in midair.

The caveman was split back in person two after only one face to face. The small corpses flew back and landed on the beach for several laps before they stopped. Their companions rushed away, then slowed a little at a loss.

By sending out sonic feedback, they have found a towering earth-rock castle in front of them.

The cavemen looked at each other, but the ‘Muru’ caveman who came up from behind immediately made a whistle-like sharp sound, letting them spread out and siege from all sides.

"Too reluctant ..." The head of the red-haired mercenary frowned, and she knew that the four mercenaries who acted as bait were all good hands that Brando had picked from them, and all of them had black iron upstream and even peaks. Elite of strength. It is on the flat ground that it can support for a while and a half under the siege of thirty cavemen, not to mention the fact that it has all the advantages of land.

However, under the siege of thirty cavemen, it was too reluctant to try to seduce the other party to send more support.

What she didn't expect was that after the magenta caveman warrior forced his companion to launch two rounds of attacks, he decisively made all cavemen retreat with sharp whistle sounds and waited around the earth and stone castle.

How is this going?

The four mercenaries were standing by the chest wall. The previous battle had already lost a lot of their physical strength. As long as the cavemen could work harder, they could capture this temporary fortress in one fell swoop. Return.

You must know that the wizard Maffery had calmed down, and after a while he was ready to go into battle again.

"The caveman is unwilling to pay the price. Although the storm can be carried out in one fell swoop at this time, it is impossible to attack without geographical advantage and personal strength. It is impossible to pay a lot of casualties." The mercenary commander's surprise, explained.

Although these people are old in all kinds of battles, they do not necessarily deal with these underground creatures of Gorgandi. In the fiercely competitive underground, population and troop strength are very valuable resources and are not allowed to be wasted at will.

This is why the average individual strength of the underground world is generally high.

"So it is," Klenhia glanced at Brando. As mercenaries on the battlefield, they did not necessarily see noble nobles and scholars. Have a look. "But I didn't expect that the cavemen's ability to attack was so weak. Don't those underground creatures have the habit of building cities?"

Brando was almost unimpressed by this problem, and he thought that those guys underground in Georgia could build cities better than human cattle. Because the underground castle was first born to prevent the invasion of demons, those thick walls and strong enough to make a human fortress-type city like Braggs look ashamed, and the fortification art comes from the dwarves in Chongshan, like the fir city That kind of city defense is not enough to look at.

"Cavemen are not incapable of siege," he replied, "they are the first-level establishments of the Jordanian, and they usually work with another first-level establishment."

"Bear Goblin?" Fern asked.
