A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees Chapter 209

Chapter 209 The Power of the Five Dragons

 A life or death moment.

Horns didn't sluggish at all, his body quickly weakened, and his fighting instincts had reached their peak after years of training.

 The moment he realized he was under attack.

 He opened the door to the Shadow Realm!

 Forced escape!

When the gentle world of shadow accepted him like a mother's embrace, Horns' tremendous pain finally dissipated. After using the power of shadow to become immune to pain, he quickly planned his retreat route.

first.

 Requires a forced Shadow Pulse.

Although this move may cause greater damage to the already torn body.

 But this is the only way to escape.

He must use this pulse to reach the next point where the Shadow Plane meets the Material Plane.

 Then rely on strong will and resilience to quickly escape from the battlefield to save lives.

 In his many years of assassination career.

 Similar scenes don't happen often, but they are not unique either.

Horns still remembers that when he was young, he was chased several times until he had nowhere to go.

At that time he also felt that he was on the verge of death.

 But in the end he didn't.

every time.

He escaped with his strong will to survive and skillful escape skills.

 And this time.

 He believes it will be the same.

In an instant, such thoughts flashed through his mind. His strong will to survive drove him to stoop, and his brain was spinning crazily.

 Power from the Shadow Realm is coming from all directions.

 A whirlpool-like phenomenon formed in his heart.

 The accumulation of strength is completed.

He was about to successfully release a shadow pulse.

 But at this time.

 In the pitch-black world, a pale and rough figure forced his way in.

That moment.

Horns' eyes widened.

 He couldn't believe that the enemy could accurately find the shadow node where he was hiding!

 Between lightning and flint.

 A rough hand bone grabbed his neck.

 “Come out, you!”

When Horns heard this voice, he had been pulled out of the shadow world.

at the same time.

 A huge bone blade struck his chin, cutting off 2/3 of his head and half of his shoulders.

 “Why does this cow...”

 This was the last thought that Horns had when he was born into this world.

Snapped!

The drow assassin's body fell to the ground, knocking over a kitchen shelf.

The sound of clattering dishes falling to the ground was endless.

 The soldiers nearby were finally alerted.

 Ten seconds later.

A fair-skinned but skinny soldier rushed in first. He was wearing obviously ill-fitting armor and a ridiculously large hat. Under the brim of the hat was a pair of rather smart eyes.

 “What happened? Sister Peggy?!”

 The boy asked nervously.

Peggy held the half body in her hand and replied:

 “It's okay, I caught a sneaky guy.”

 The young man was shocked and said:

 “Wow, is this an assassin?”

“Why did they turn their skin black in order to escape into the darkness?”

Peggy stared at the corpse in her hands and muttered:

“Is there a possibility that this is a drow?”

 The surprise in the young man's eyes became even stronger:

“Is this a drow? It turns out there are really people who are born black!”

He looked at Peggy with eyes full of admiration:

 “Sister Peggy, you know so much!”

Peggy smiled.

 She quite likes the clever young man named Duomi in front of her.

Duomi is the youngest person participating in the battle in Rolling Stone Town.

 He was originally a member of the reserve force.

　　Because I heard that there would be money to be paid for participating in the battle, I sharpened my head and wanted to join the war.

The military affairs officer originally rejected Domi's request to participate in the war many times.

 But Naihe Duomi recommended himself through various channels.

 Finally, he got an opportunity to join the logistics force as a reserve.

 The nominal commander of the logistics force is an old man from the garrison.

 But Domi has been following Peggy, an alternative logistics member, from the first day of the battle.

  It means quite a bit of a little tail.

This makes it hard for Peggy not to like him.

“Sister Peggy, there's a war going on over there, do you think there will be more assassins sneaking in?”

 Domi asked.

Peggy nodded:

“You go and inform Allen (the logistics director) and ask him to inform Zeller and the commander of the cavalry respectively.”

 “I will check it myself in the camp.”

 Duomi asked enthusiastically:

 “I will inform them!”

“But is there anything I can do to help with the search for other assassins?”

Peggy thought for a while:

"have."

 “Go and change the positions of the two real gems at the entrance of the camp.”

 Duomi suddenly realized:

“Is it because the location of the True Sight Gem was not right, so the assassin was allowed to sneak in?”

“You now want me to adjust my position in order to force potential assassins to be exposed?”

However, Peggy shook her head:

"no."

 “Anti-hiddenness is my natural instinct and I don't need to resort to other forces.”

"Those two gems are so dazzling that they make my soul hurt. Please move them. It's best to move them to a corner so they don't hinder me."

 Domi suddenly showed a dumbfounded expression.

 It took quite a long time.

 He then scratched his head and did as he was told.

at the same time.

 On the southwest hillside.

The infantry of Rolling Stone Town were in close combat with Gao Ye's army who was attacking at night.

 Brad, who was born with supernatural powers, led the team at the front.

 After the undead army shrinks its formation towards the north, he will be responsible for taking over the task of resisting the line at the foot of the mountain.

 With the cooperation of more than a dozen defenders.

  Quickly killed the orc team at the front.

quickly.

 They were tangled up with a brand new team of human infantry.

 However, overall the intensity of the war was not very high.

 Except for the orc squad that was killed.

Although the enemy is powerful.

However, the teams were scattered widely, and the battle line was stretched very long, giving people the feeling of an all-out attack, but it was not as fierce and powerful as imagined.

 When infantry engages in battle.

Matthew rode his Pegasus across the sky, observing the battle below and paying attention to the movements of the black dragon.

He discovered that the human troops in the high leaf collar had indeed made some moves. Not only were almost all the troops dispatched, but there were also archers behind them who had been providing projectile cover.

 Previously in the first round of contact.

Matthew's undead people died a lot because they were caught off guard.

 Fortunately it is now under Matthew's control.

 The undead have re-defended the northern mountainside and riverbank.

 The undead army and Brad's garrison formed a defensive line that was relatively solid so far.

Matthew also tried to order the undead to take the initiative.

  But the effect is very general.

 Mainly because of his focus, it is really difficult to micromanage the undead squad.

 And because they lack intelligence, they can easily suffer disadvantages when they come into contact with the enemy at the tactical level.

Matthew quickly realized—

 With the lack of the blessing of spells of the level of undead scourge.

 A simple undead army is actually not suitable for attack.

  But very suitable for defense.

Hence, he did not pursue more, but chose to continue to play steadily and let the zombies block the flanks of the garrison to ensure the safety of Brad and others.

 Period.

 The shouting was obvious at the foot of the west mountain.

  But quickly.

Matthew then realized that the intensity of the battle was not as high as imagined.

 The attacking enemy troops seemed to have no intention of continuing their advance.

 Some enemy squads even retreated a lot immediately after encountering a strong blockage.

 There is no sloppiness at all.

This feeling is very inexplicable.

Either the enemy has no intention of attacking the mountain head-on, or the opponent is playing an anti-psychological game.

 In this way, Matthew became extremely curious about the thoughts of Delaware, the commander-in-chief of the enemy forces.

However, as the commander-in-chief, Rhaegar was very calm.

 He kept using his loud voice to order everyone not to pursue, but to just hold on.

 As a result, the battle has changed from a surprise battle at the beginning to a stalemate most of the time. Only occasionally a section of the front will be fiercely fought for a while, but once casualties occur, the enemy troops will quickly retreat!

 The fight continued like this for about half an hour.

 There was a faint glow in the sky.

 The time is approaching dawn.

However, at this time, Matthew noticed that the dense fog near the mossy green hills had reached its maximum!

 Visibility near the battlefield dropped to less than three meters.

Had it not been for Rhaegar's extremely loud voice, he could be heard accurately by everyone even among countless noises.

I'm afraid that the heavy fog alone will greatly hinder the designated release.

 For the sake of safety.

The Rolling Stones side decided to shrink their defense line.

 But at this time.

 Brad and others also found that the enemy began to retreat quickly!

 Along with this process.

 The wind seems to have changed.

 The fog that hung over the enemy suddenly began to recede.

 The situation of the army in front of Gao Ye Ling was clearly visible!

 They look like there are only about 300 people!

 There are no more reinforcements. “The enemy seems to have a problem!”

 “Their main force did not appear!”

“This time it's still harassment, but it's just a more decent feint!”

“If we are bolder, we might be able to capture all of this feint attack force!”

 Brad chopped down an enemy with force and then rushed up the hillside.

 He came to Rhaegar and asked whether he should pursue.

Rhaegar looked up to the sky.

Matthew's faint voice came from the thick foggy sky:

 “Don't worry, you go down and gather the troops first.”

 “You can give chase for a little while, but don't cross the river!”

 While speaking.

 He took out a mist-opening scroll from his arms and tore it open.

Thick magic light patterns rippled like water waves.

 In an instant.

 The fog covering a radius of several miles with Matthew as the center dissipated!

 He sees clearly from his condescension.

Discovered that there are no other soldiers from the High Leaf Collar in the hills and dense forests in the northwest!

  The elite orcs and bugbears did not appear at all.

This seems to be similar to what Brad judged.

 Above the mountainside.

Rhaegar also saw the enemy army retreating in embarrassment through the light of the morning light.

There was a strange look on his face.

 But still no order was given to pursue.

Matthew's eyes wandered between the jungle and the shallows.

 Not long.

 Brad has led people to chase him to the river.

Tonight he cut down several enemies. He was currently in a state of killing red eyes and almost couldn't hold back and rushed over.

 Matthew landed by the river just in time.

 He saw the human soldiers retreating hastily into the dense forest.

His eyes scanned the dense woods.

 A moment later.

Matthew suddenly asked loudly towards the dense forest:

“Is there an army hiding among you?”

 Ability: Ask naturally!

 The forest was quiet and silent.

 Brad said excitedly:

"Did you see it? There is no ambush, let me lead the charge once!"

“As long as we kill them, our certainty of winning this war will be greatly increased...”

 However, he was not finished yet.

There was a series of complaints coming from the forest:

 “Yes, yes!”

“There are a lot of orcs lurking in the woods to the east, and their **** stinks!”

"There are more than 30 bugbears hiding in the stone pit to the west. They are too fat!"

Everyone in the garrison was shocked when they heard this.

They opened their eyes and looked hard, but there was nothing in the dense forest, and no one was around.

Matthew gave a long laugh, mounted the Pegasus, came to the sky above the forest and started throwing flour downwards.

　　With the falling of abundant flour.

 The two troops lurking in the dark were instantly exposed through group invisibility!

 They are the two elite troops from Gao Ye Ling!

Through the rough display of flour, it is not difficult to see that the high leaf collar infantry retreated through the passage between the two armies.

 In case Brad leads the charge.

 A flanking attack from both sides will surely lead to collapse!

He himself may even have a narrow escape from death!

 See this scene.

 Brad suddenly broke into a cold sweat.

 He scratched his beard subconsciously, not knowing what to say.

 “How about we retreat?”

 Brad looked at Matthew returning from the sky with some embarrassment.

Unexpectedly, Matthew still shook his head.

 He looked back towards the hillside.

At this moment, there was a dark red magic flag rising into the sky next to Rhaegar's hand!

 That is the order to charge with all strength!

 “Go for it!”

 “I will cooperate with you!”

 Matthew patted Brad on the shoulder, and he rode on the back of the ghost bone dragon Xiao Fei.

 Surrounded by countless undead.

 Philoleus led the three-headed bone dragon and flew to the sky above the dense forest first!

 Longwei!

 One swoop down.

Although the power of the bone dragon was small, it still made the orcs and bugbears who had just been exposed and were hesitant to retreat a little uncomfortable.

 Their bodies were obviously stiff.

That moment.

Xiao Fei cut directly into a half-orc army on the flank, and his tail and claws attacked these strong aliens unscrupulously.

Matthew was not idle either.

 The Pale Hands are firing on all cylinders and starting to try to harvest lives.

 The resilience of half-orcs is not low.

 Soon they recovered from their immobility.

 But at this time, Xiaobo soared into the sky again after attracting the attention of most of the enemy troops.

 This time.

 But he did not dare to swoop down no matter what.

 It can come and go again.

 Buying time for Brad's infantry and the undead to approach.

The jungle itself is not big, just a small area.

With the rapid influx of undead, the frontal battlefield will obviously become very crowded.

at this time.

A sharp whistling sound came from deep within the enemy ranks.

That moment.

 All enemies who received the order began to retreat quickly!

 This time they really retreated.

 Because their evacuation speed was several times faster than before!

Matthew found streaks of yellow light on them.

obviously.

 That's the function of the strategic spell: retreat!

 The enemy troops withdrew from the dense forest as quickly as possible.

 Matthew did not see Dragon Priest Drava, but the opponent's micro-management of the troops opened his eyes.

 In just a few minutes.

 All three troops withdrew from the dense forest.

 The orcs and bugbears covered each other and took the lead in escaping from the dangerous area.

 The human troops previously used as bait were not so lucky.

 Some of them were entangled with Brad's infantry.

The remaining people had just escaped from the dense forest, but suddenly they heard the sound of horse hooves!

 But see the north of the dense forest.

Two columns of cavalry quickly bypassed the lush vegetation and attacked them along both sides of the valley!

 The enemy is in formation.

 The screams symbolizing retreat became stronger and stronger each time.

　　But when the spear of the first cavalry penetrated the rout of the three high-leaf collared infantry.

 A massacre was inevitable.

Not to mention that when the cavalry arrived, they were also chased by Matthew riding a ghost bone dragon!

 Blood and negative energy.

 It quickly infiltrated the land inside and outside the dense forest.

 The pursuit continued until seven o'clock in the morning.

 The initial battle at Rolling Stone was successful.

With one person alive, three seriously injured, and seventeen slightly injured, about 130 enemy troops were killed. Most of them were human infantry from the high leaf collar, with a small number of orcs and one the slowest bear. Goblin.

 There were three prisoners in total.

 In fact.

　　Brad and the others were already red-blooded, and the enemy troops who were trying to escape had no chance of survival at all.

On the contrary, these three guys lay down on the river beach, first pretended to be dead to deceive the pursuers, and then raised their hands in surrender while everyone in Rolling Stone Town was cleaning up the mess, thus saving their lives.

Noon.

 The interrogation of the three prisoners is coming to an end.

And Peggy's windfall was also handed over.

"This is "Wood Lizard's Kiss", a very strange poison. It is not toxic in itself and will only cause mild diarrhea after being taken. "

“But this poison will lie dormant in the human body for up to a week. During this period, if you smell a certain kind of special pollen, it will cause stiffness in the limbs, and the symptoms can last for at least several hours.”

“During the fight with the enemy, we discovered that the Dragon Priest seems to have the ability to control the fog, so it shouldn't be too difficult for him to control the airflow. The operation of sending pollen into the airflow can also be completed.”

Matthew solemnly said:

“At present, Delaware's raid has at least two purposes.”

“The first one came from the frontal battlefield. He used group invisibility and fog to create a double obstacle. He wanted to use this to booby-trap our troops. Fortunately, we were careful enough and escaped.”

“And the second one should be the poisoning of the drow assassin.”

 “We are lucky, they should not succeed.”

Zeller nodded:

“I would step up testing of food and water for toxins.”

“During the interrogation just now, the three prisoners claimed in unison that they had joined the Five Dragons Alliance and were the blood descendants of the Five Dragons.”

“We also found identical talismans on the fallen soldiers. This seems to be a token that represents their identity.”

“The black dragon has not appeared for a long time. Do you think it has something to do with these talismans?”

 The three of them looked at each other.

Matthew directly believed that these talismans were related to the disappearance of the black dragon, but now that there is no more information, he can only wait and see what happens.

 However, the black dragon did not keep them waiting for long.

 Approximately noon.

Roland suddenly found them:

 “One piece of good news and one piece of bad news.”

 “The good news is, my grapevine has found traces of the dragon.”

 “The bad news is, there are five dragons.”

 While speaking.

 He waved his right hand, and a brilliant golden light poured into the foreheads of Matthew and others.

 In an instant.

 They then shared the information captured by Lorraine!

 Hint: Your partner Lorraine shared a piece of tidbit with you—

Meo Nogas, the black dragon, activated the "Dragon Blood Contract" in the Five Dragons Alliance on the grounds that the descendants of the five dragons were killed in large numbers!

The remaining four dragons in the Five Dragon Alliance lent part of their power to the black dragon Mae Nogas!

 Meo Nogas has gained the "Power of Five Dragons" and he is now more powerful (LV20)!

also.

He relied on the power of the five dragons to summon four giant dragons from the secondary plane, namely the young white dragon, the young green dragon, the young red dragon and the young blue dragon!

 They will become followers of Maenogas! "

I'm sorry, something did happen at home. I don't want to convey negative energy to everyone, so I didn't say the detailed reason. In short, I will adjust well and try to get back to better shape tomorrow!
