Chapter 293 Three Ways of Troops

Elrond 589, January 2.

One day has passed since the earthquake, and the "Forbidden Magic" effect caused by the shattering of the "Static Time Barrier" has finally completely dissipated around Elson, and the "San Vallarno High Elf Noble Council"—that is, the "Holy Council" Finally, after making complete preparations, the team entered the final destination of their trip: the south gate of Elson City.

After simple tempering along the way, these descendants of high elves have developed a tacit understanding with each other. It's just that the incident that happened before the "Static Time Barrier" broke has completely separated Camilla from this team-everyone knows that Camilla may never be able to have any more in the "Holy Meeting" in the future. How much room for development.

But as long as she is not judged as "betrayal", she still has to follow the team at this time. Camilla knows the abilities of the "Holy Society". Although she herself is not afraid of Captain Spark, she is afraid that the "Holy Society" will take "certain" measures against her daughter Nefi, so at this time she has to continue to compromise and continue to fight. Follow the rear of the team.

Spark directly ignored Camilla, and he didn't even make a threat... Obviously, he was more concerned about the task in front of him than a helpless woman.

"The gate of the inner city is open!"

"Active defense facilities are not activated!"

"No element fluctuations!"

"No life fluctuations!"

At this time, arcanists were carefully investigating, and the information they gave back made Spark very satisfied-the "relic" in front of him was the city with the most powerful defense of the high elves, but obviously, the city that was enchanted After nearly 800 years of "stationary", this place has become a completely dead city...

The city is in the shape of a regular octagon, surrounded by stone walls, and occupies a very large area. The surface of the city wall with a height of more than fifteen meters is smooth, without the rough feeling of bumps and pits like a human fortress at all. It has obviously been cut by magic. At this time, it is silently showing the exquisite craftsmanship of the high elves, which reached its peak eight hundred years ago. .

Typical fortresses of the Karen Kingdom have cylindrical towers, but all the "towers" of Elson in front of them are triangular in shape, with sharp shapes and a sense of chilling.

Because of the enchantment, everything that Spark can see has not been eroded by the years: the ground is clean and clean, and there are even fresh moss at the base of the city wall. After entering the city gate, there are carriage ruts on the wide street. I can still smell the fragrance of some flowers in my breath...

Spark and others walked slowly into the city, but there was no one in sight. There are not even insects and birds singing here, and only the monotonous footsteps can be heard when walking.

The team moved forward cautiously, and Camilla was finally not arranged to explore the way ahead... In fact, everyone knew that her existence had become an unstable factor in the team. First, she was excluded and isolated, and the final result was likely to be It is exile, abandonment.

"According to the original words in "The Theory of Making Charged Crystals", we need to find the 'energy charger' here, and look for the next few volumes of this set of books to find the key to making crystals."

Captain Spark assigns tasks. Although he has a bad attitude towards Camilla all the way, he does have a thoughtful and meticulous thinking that is difficult for ordinary people-"Everyone in the team keeps a distance of ten meters before and after, and they are not allowed to leave the team without authorization. touch anything..."

After he finished speaking, his eyes turned to the end of the line, his brows frowned slightly, and he finally ignored Camilla who was holding her forehead with a painful expression.

"Okay, move on."

He turned around and walked forward, not forgetting to add: "If someone falls behind, I won't stop, the 'Holy Meeting' can't afford to waste any time."

Camilla gritted her teeth tightly, and sighed after hearing this: She naturally understood that the other party was speaking to herself, but at this time she was indeed unwell—fatigue and sleepiness were secondary, and there was no reason for that after entering the city. The dizziness and headache caused by you are the main culprits for her ugly face.

what happened?

Camilla felt that everything in this city made her uncomfortable, and she even had "tinnitus" from time to time. She held her forehead and tried to keep up with the team, and tried to look at the inner city wall, trying to distract herself , but because of a headache, she had to pull her eyes back to her eyes—but when her vision swept across an alley beside her, she suddenly felt something flash past.

"what is that?"

She stopped and looked around, carefully recalling for a moment, but finally felt that it should be an illusion caused by the light, then she held her forehead and continued to walk forward.

Time passed, and three hours after the "Holy Congregation" team entered Elson City, the team of "Baron Frost" Bellom also came to the gate of the city -- but unlike Spark and others, he faced That's right, it's the "West Gate" of Elson City.

After losing the "Sola Sentry", Bellom's temper became worse and worse. In order to vent his anger along the way, he even personally chopped off a few animals that didn't have long eyes. And when he saw the empty city gate and the exquisite city wall, a smile of relief finally appeared on his face that had been tense for two days...

"The harvest this time may be more than His Majesty imagined."

Looking at the streets that are cleaner and tidy than the Tasman Kingdom, looking at the rows of beautifully decorated buildings, and looking at the tall magic tower standing in the center of the city in the distance, Bellom only feels that what is in front of him is a Treasures full of gold and silver mountains!

"Lord Baron, Blood Raven has just detected that another group of people has entered here ahead of schedule."

The untimely words of the Necromancer under his command interrupted Bellom's fantasy, and the corners of his mouth that had just raised froze instantly...

"How many people? Where did they come from?"

"They entered the city through the south gate, and are now heading towards the inner city. They seem to be looking for something. There are fifteen of them, and..."

"And what?"

Bellom raised his head, and the treasure was taken first, which made his face very gloomy.

"According to the analysis seen by the blood crow, they seem to be all mages, and their ranks are not low."

In order not to be discovered, the blood crows scouting at high altitudes can record images that are not clear, but the arcanists of the "Holy Council" can clearly see their spellcasting movements, and the necromancers are also magicians. Professionals immediately judged that these guys were not weak.

This news immediately ruined Bellom's mood that had just recovered.

In fact, he really wanted to say, "Whoever you love, whoever and I will rush up and hack them to death", but "15 mages" and "15 knights" are definitely two different concepts...Because a battle involving multiple mages can never be judged by common sense .

Bellom pondered for a long time, and finally suppressed the negative emotions in his heart caused by successive setbacks, and said in a deep voice: "Continue to let the blood crows keep an eye on them, and we will continue to search for the 'charged spar'."

Elson City is huge, and it takes almost half a day to walk from the west gate to the east gate. Bellom decided not to trouble these guys for the time being.

He needs to confirm the purpose of these mages coming here - if the other party is also looking for the "charged spar", Bellom doesn't mind risking his old life to fight the other party.

Because this is a task issued by His Majesty Augustine himself, he must complete it.

The necromancer led the order, and the team immediately continued to advance towards the inner city. The undeads held weapons and carefully searched everything around them. Because they did not understand high elf language, they searched all the buildings carefully, and the result... Let Bellom feel the strangeness of this city more and more.

Obviously no one can be seen here, but the furnishings in the houses seem as if the owner has just left for a few days; the wine glasses in the tavern are even filled with brightly colored red wine, the straw for the horses is still fresh, some kitchens In the iron pot inside, there are still foods that have just spoiled or not spoiled...

"Shrink the formation and get ready for battle."

The huge empty city made Bellom feel a little uneasy: From any angle, this city must have at least ten thousand or even tens of thousands of residents!

But where have they all gone?

"What the hell is this...?"

Facing this strange situation without any mental preparation, Bellom still really felt a long-lost feeling of fear that sent chills down his spine.

Almost at the same moment, Rody walked out from the north gate of Sola sentry, and led the troops behind him towards Elson.

[Judgment of the Throne of Bones] There are still 100 days in the countdown. For Rody, this time is still plenty.

Heading towards Elson this time, Rody only brought 30 light cavalry and 60 followers. After such an arrangement, the remaining soldiers can assist Hanks to ensure the safety of Sola's post, and they can also maximize their mobility and offensiveness.

After all, after going through so many battles and sacrifices, Roddy didn't want to take soldiers to unknown cities—after all, there was never only one way to prevent the kingdom from perishing, and he didn't have other choices.

But thinking of the possible changes that the "charged spar" might bring to this world, Roddy will stop the undead's actions no matter what!

The changes brought about by technology will always be unmatched by a simple stone city. Roddy has a very deep understanding of this, so at this time, while leading the team forward, he and Suo Deluoer and others focused on the purpose and plan of the trip.

"The city underwent a large-scale evacuation before it was enveloped by the barrier, but it is still unknown how many people are still inside, so it is not surprising even if you encounter some high elves."

Listening to what Rody said plainly, Nata rarely raised a question: "Roddy, you said we will meet real, living pure-blooded high elves?"

"It's possible, but I'm not sure."

Roddy paused, and continued: "That book wrote some arguments about the 'time stasis barrier'. Khadgar believes that the so-called 'stationary' is just an illusion caused by the passage of time too slowly..."

Seeing Nata's expression, Rody knew that she might not understand what he said, so he said in a different way: "In short, it is very likely that 800 years have passed outside the barrier, but only 800 years have passed inside the barrier." For a day, or a year, or ten years, that is beyond Khadgar's control."

Nata nodded and said nothing, but Soderol asked: "Then what are we going to do after we go in? Can we control the city with less than a hundred people?"

"I brought the cavalry regiment to deal with the undead, but to control the city, we need to use another method." Rody clapped the book "On the Self-awareness of the Defense System" in his hand, "If you compare a city to a living Everyone, how will you control him?"

"Shackles and shackles?"

Akasha asked curiously from the side.

"No, that's not it." Rody shook his head, then pointed to his temple, "Controlling here is the most powerful and powerful means."
