Chapter 795: The war is about to begin
"Sir Akabane, have you figured out where the Tukan Air Force is stationed? Can we launch a counterattack?" The person Gavin asked was a Leatherman witch.
Uxmail City does not have any air power, which does not mean that Gavin does not have any, but they have always been passively beaten, but have no intention of dispatching, including Gavin's three axes, which are not easily used, just to hold back the power. Move, give those Tukan Eagle Knights a hard blow as much as possible.
Many tricks can only be used once. Once the enemy takes precautions, the effect will be greatly reduced.
The Leatherman Witch in front of me is not the one I met in the Leatherman Refugee Camp, but a big shot from the Leatherman Kingdom, a member of the Witch Council, and a legend The Leatherman Witch calls herself Akabane, and she is accompanied by ten quasi-legendary Leatherman Witches.
While the Leatherman Kingdom showed great importance to the food brought by Gavin, it also showed a strong foundation. There is a reason why they have been able to fight against Serge's red-robed mage for many years.
“The situation is more complicated than imagined. The Tukan people not only sent out a large number of eagle knights to harass them in turn, but also colluded with the evil forces in the giant valley. The place where they stopped for the night was not without reason. Without defense, it is difficult to launch a sneak attack on them."
Although the legendary Leatherman Witch couldn't see her expression clearly, there was obvious solemnity in her tone.
"The local evil forces in the Giant Valley? Do they still exist?" Gavin asked in surprise.
In the past few days since he came to Jugu, he thought he had a thorough understanding of the situation here. He had never heard that such a thing existed in Jugu.
"Before that, let me introduce you to a friend. This is Hansuo, the master of Nighthawk Tower and one of the great druids of the Rice Order."
Aka Feather Witch and He did not answer Gavin's question directly, but pointed at the falcon that fell from the sky.
With a burst of soft magical aura, the falcon twisted and transformed into a lean human male. He also had large tattoos on his body, all related to nature. , among which birds are the most important.
The clothes he wore seemed to be woven from various feathers. They were gorgeous and exuded a unique wildness.
“I’ve heard about your name for a long time.” Gavin bowed and saluted.
This is not a polite statement, but actually heard the other person's name.
The Order of Raith is the name of a large Druid circle and an important part of the Druid regime of the Great Valley.
The Druid regime of the Great Valley is a collective term. Like most druids, their leadership is not very clear. Most of them go their own way and take care of their own forests and villages in their own way.
Those who share the same ideals will also form a Druid Circle. Among them, two Druid Circles are the most famous here and have a very high status.
The Order of Les is one of them. This circle of druids has the responsibility of guarding the Lesl Forest, and their main scope of activities is this ancient forest.
Most of the members of this sect are kept secret because they live in the Lesser Forest all year round and rarely appear in front of the world. Whether they are human or not is unknown.
Hanso and his Nighthawk Tower are the only Archdruids of the Leth Order who have revealed their identities to the outside world and have a fixed living location. He is considered one of the most tolerant druids in the Great Valley.
Not only will he help those kind-hearted people in the giant valley, he will also not be stingy in lending a helping hand to those birds and beasts that ask for help from him.
The huge oak tree where he lives is called the Nighthawk Tower, not only because he likes to transform into a nighthawk to patrol the forest, but also because there are a large number of nighthawks who call it their home. Live together.
"I have heard about the guide of the forest lady for a long time. I have long wanted to take time to visit and listen to your guidance and teachings. I never expected that we would meet in the giant valley." Han Suo told Gai Wenchao. Extraordinarily warm and friendly.
He is the druid of Silvanus, the god of nature, and is naturally fond of the followers of the Lady of the Forest.
Mielikki and the Oak Father are father and daughter, subordinate.
“Guidance and teaching are inappropriate.” Gavin responded humbly, “If given the opportunity, we can exchange experiences in protecting nature, jointly find a path for the harmonious development of intelligent life and nature, and guide more people. Come join the ranks.”
He now has extensive experience in dealing with these natural people and knows exactly what they are interested in.
As expected, before he finished speaking, Han Suo said enthusiastically: "This is indeed an effective way out. After all, the rise of intelligent life has been unstoppable..."
"Two of you, are you going too far?" Witch Akabane interrupted Han Suo without mercy, "If you want to plan for the future, you must first ensure that the forest has a future."
"Sorry, Indeed, the matter at hand is more urgent," Han Suo said apologetically, "There is a magic tree and a withered one. The formed army is raging and expanding in the Raisman Forest, and they are heading towards the city of Usmail.
The Tukan Eagle Knights are resting in this dark army, and those monsters are. With a strong aura of killing, they are exactly the same as Baal, the god of murder. They are obviously the same as the Tukan people. As the vanguard of the Tukan people, we will clear the obstacles for them."
"The dark power in the forest" Gavin frowned involuntarily, but these Tukan people did not leave. Ordinary road, "How far are they from the city of Usmail?"
"At most It's a one-day journey. Since they are not distracted after coming out of the forest, their speed is likely to increase significantly. It is very likely that they will arrive at Uxmail City at noon tomorrow. They are likely to launch an attack here under the cover of night. Those Dark-activated plants are not affected by darkness," Han Suo said solemnly.
"How many troops do they have?"
"There is no way to accurately assess this. After all, their main body is now hidden in the dense forest, and they will expand their troops as the forest corrupts. It is now basically certain that they at least have More than fifty magic trees."
"More than fifty magic trees?" Everyone present couldn't help but take a breath.
The specific origin of this strange and ferocious flesh-eating animated plant is unknown. It is said to be spawned from the darkest and most evil areas of the Feywild, or it is said to be an ancient evil devouring nature. product.
In short, his existence can completely subvert the world's understanding of activated plants. It turns out that plants can be so greedy and bloodthirsty.
The biggest characteristic of this monster is that it never acts alone. Instead, it devours the flesh, flesh and soul of its victims, and produces pods of fruits on its own body. Each one contains a demon tree man. They are the seeds of the demon tree. Also its servant, collecting more blood food for it.
Despite their small size, those Demonic Tree People are quite difficult to deal with for ordinary people.
After all, they are activated plants, not flesh-and-blood animals. They have both plant characteristics and good damage reduction capabilities. They are definitely a disaster for ordinary people.
For the Demonic Tree, the Demonic Treeman is a consumable item. As long as it has sufficient flesh and blood, it can continuously produce new Demonic Treemen.
Each magic tree can be regarded as a mobile arsenal.
The only good thing is that the lifespan of those magic tree people is very short, only two to five days, depending on the frequency of their activities. The more intense the activities and battles, the faster they die.
Because they cannot replenish energy. After all, they are not activated plants in the ordinary sense, but activated seeds.
Once they take root, there is no way to turn back into a magic tree. Instead, they disguise themselves as ordinary trees and start to grow. If they are not cut down within a year (in this state, they become like ordinary trees). helpless and powerless to resist), they will become new Demonic Trees (young ones). At this time, they can be activated again, leave the place where they are rooted, and look for blood food to replenish their own needs and grow further. Under normal circumstances, the Demonic Tree will only order the living Demonic Tree people to do so after clearing an area of food and preparing to leave the area. This not only ensures that its food source will not be diluted, but also Ensure that these seedlings can survive the most dangerous stage safely.
It is not uncommon for a magic tree and the team of magic tree people led by it to eat up all the livestock in a small village or community overnight.
In those mercenary unions, the challenge level set for the magic tree is the legendary level.
What is this concept?
The challenge level set by the mercenary union is based on those well-equipped mercenary teams of four to five people.
In other words, if you want to take down the Demon Tree without too much loss of personnel on your own side, it will only be possible if at least four or five legendary professionals with complementary abilities join forces. After all, the reason why the challenge level is It is called a challenge level because this thing is very challenging, and if you are not careful, you will capsize in the gutter.
One magic tree is already so terrifying. As many as fifty magic trees form an army and are dispatched together. Just thinking about it makes people's scalp numb.
"That's not right." Gavin immediately reacted, "If there were so many magic trees in the Lesser Forest, they would have already eaten up all the creatures in the entire forest, and you guys didn't even notice at all?"
“This is also what I can’t understand.” Han Suo said with a confused look, “It is true that there is a demon tree called the Lord of Blight in the Lesir Forest, but he is a poisonous lady. Talona and the Ancients The followers of the evil tree Gantias mainly rely on the withering power of the ancient evil tree to infect and corrupt this forest. Our Les Order has been trying every means to restrain his expansion. We have never seen so many evil trees. They are like It was like he appeared overnight.
The area where the Lord of Blight was originally located was also shrouded by a powerful and evil force, whether it was from the air or from the land. There is no way to get close and detect the situation inside."
"I think I know what happened," Leatherman Witch Akabane said from the side, "The power of killing is shrouded there, and Yamen. The power that Khan now possesses is exactly the same, and the poisonous lady Talona has always been a subordinate of Baal, the god of killing. The two have similarities in power. If Yamen Khan ignores his own destruction, Consumption, sharing the killing power that he has accumulated over a long period of time..."
Han Suo's eyes lit up and he said continuously: "Yes, it must be like this. This is not just Talona's reason. , but also because of the ancient evil tree Gantias. This tree was reborn by absorbing the blood essence released when the ancient vampire died. It has an unimaginable thirst for and use of blood and souls
<. br>
When his power was combined with that magic tree, it made him extremely different.
With the divine power of killing and the pouring of a large number of souls, a large number of new magic trees can blossom and bear fruit in a very short period of time, and an army of magic trees can be formed. "
The Rice Order has been fighting against the Lord of Blight for many years. It has already known his information clearly and made bold speculations.
"It doesn't matter how they came here. Now The question is how to face their invasion. According to the archdruid's information, it is conservatively estimated that they will have at least a thousand demon tree people, tens of thousands of blighters and more than three hundred Tukan Eagle Knights. "
The Akabane Witch said solemnly, "Faced with such a powerful army, even the same number of our fearless people would be hard-pressed to defeat them, let alone those with only tens of thousands of people and low Walled city of Uxmail.
This city has never been baptized by war on this scale. The moment this army of activated plants arrives in the city, it will also be the moment the city collapses, becoming new nutrients in the mouths of those withered demon trees, and the corruption will spawn more. The Blighter.
At that time, it will be the moment when they sweep across the entire valley and attack our fearless army from behind. ”
The flesh and blood body does not have any advantage against these activated plants.
After all, if you chop those activated plants with an axe, the other party will probably not feel pain or itching, but if the other party scratches you, it will not hurt you. If you use your claws, it is likely to cause pain to the bone marrow, or even drop it to the ground, because these corrupted darkness-activated plants, During the attack, they usually attack with poison
“We must not let the citizens of Uxmail flee into the wilderness on their own. Doing so will only make them die faster, those Tukan eagles. The knight is waiting for that moment, and people can run, but this city cannot run, and the food we have unloaded into the granary cannot run.
The residents of this city have only been implicated. Their main goals are still for food and the strategic significance of this city. As long as this place is destroyed, Jugu will lose the only port that can dock large transport ships. Supplies can no longer be transported to the front line through Jugu Hongdao. "
Gavin organized his words and quickly analyzed the opponent's strategic intentions, "The easiest stage to eliminate this kind of corrupt monster army is in the early stage of their development. Later, if you want to eliminate it, The higher their difficulty level.
So, we should not avoid fighting, but actively look for fighter opportunities, severely damage them, or even eliminate them. ”
“I don’t know this truth. "The Akabane witch took a deep breath and said, "But the help we can provide is very limited. Not only is the distant water unable to save the nearby fire, but also because the Tukan people are cooperating with this withered army. They are building up the past period of time. All the boats are rafting into the water, preparing to forcefully cross Lake Asen. We must beware of them turning fiction into reality.
However, there is no problem in recruiting another hundred extraordinary witches. With their help, we can open ten circular magic circles and try to summon an army of fire elements. I believe we can deal with them. Play a certain restraining role. ”
"We in the Rice Order will not sit back and watch this evil force trample on this land wantonly. Before coming, I have sent my nighthawks to pass the news here to every brother and sister in the order. They must be on their way to help."
Han Suo introduced the situation on his side angrily, "Besides, I will run to Dansaros Fortress as quickly as possible to visit the Great Druid of Niteach and try to get his help. He is the strongest Druid in our giant valley. If he takes action, he will It will be comparable to an army.”
The Great Druid of Niteach is another druid circle in the Great Valley that is as famous as the Rice Order.
This Druid Circle is more accurately called the mysterious Netiyat. This Druid Circle is named after a person. The role of this Arch Druid in it is self-evident. , the whole circle is built around him.
Compared with the Les Order that is well known to outsiders, the Druid circle headed by Nate Yach has a more extreme personality. He will eliminate all visitors he does not like.
No one knows his true origin, no one even knows whether he is a man or a woman, whether he is a druid or a warlock.
The only thing that is known is that he is powerful and scary. He lives in a living tree castle and conducts all kinds of weird natural research. Many people have no chance to get close to his living tree castle and die in the dense forest surrounding him. Activated and semi-activated plant hands around the castle.
Because of his guarding, Damara in the northwest of the giant valley, under the leadership of the Witch King Zhengyi, did not dare to destroy the Rawlins Forest no matter how powerful it was.
Gavin asked: "Based on what you know about the Great Druid of Netiat, what are the chances that he will take action personally?"
"If a simple Tukan people come to fight? , as long as the forest is not burned, the possibility of him taking action is only 20%, but instead It has become an activated plant army, especially the withering power and killing power of the demon tree and the ancient evil tree Gantias, which are concentrated in the Lord of Blight. The possibility of him taking action is as high as 90%, and the remaining Ten percent, leaving the possibility that he is not in his fortress," Han Suo replied confidently.
Netyat's indifference is obviously only directed at strangers, and he still maintains a certain degree of contact with his peers.
“How many troops can you mobilize?”
“There are at least ten quasi-legendary and legendary archdruids, and at least a hundred extraordinary druids. They can bring two hundred famous trees. There are about a thousand druids and rangers below the extraordinary level." Hanso conservatively estimated, "There are no great druids in Netiat. There is a way to accurately estimate, even for us druids, he is too mysterious."
"Can your Les Order's troops enter Uxmail before the enemy approaches the city? The city is fortified?”
“No problem, most of them will be teleported directly.”
After a quick assessment of the troops he had in his hands, Gavin couldn't help but smile and said: "So, it's not that we don't have the power to resist at all. As long as we arrange it carefully, we won't be able to annihilate them all." Said that the enemy's siege troops were still not severely damaged. There's a problem."
"Oh? How to fight this battle?"
"Let's talk about it in detail."
The Red Feather Witch and the Great Druid of Hanso. Asked at the same time, because they haven't seen where the odds of winning are yet?
