Chapter 233, Crushing Battle
[Name]: Shadow Cloak
[Quality]: Golden Legend
[Purpose]: Mainly used to recruit heroes. Open the hero altar and choose to recruit. You can attract golden legendary hero units to join your team.
[Note]: The legendary equipment used by the legendary assassin. Later, he died on the grassland and the shadow cloak was lost. Fortunately, you found it. Through this item, you may be able to recruit the most legendary hero in the old continent.
Looking at the prop panel in front of him.
Fang Yuan's face showed a rare excitement.
"Golden item!"
"Finally I saw the golden item again!!!"
Think about it. The first golden item was obtained when I just arrived at the battlefield of the Ten Thousand Worlds, with the blessing of the novice's luck.
Then he recruited Lilith, the strongest hero under his command.
And it was with Lilith that he could quickly gain a foothold in the battlefield of the Ten Thousand Worlds.
Then, like a snowball, in just over a month, it developed to the current level.
If there were no golden heroes recruited by the first golden item.
Then at this moment, I would either be drowned in the beast tide of Gondor.
Or I would have moved away from the city long ago and was still struggling at the bottom.
Fang Yuan looked back at the road he had walked.
It was not difficult to find out how important the first golden item, the Heart of Arcane, was to him.
And now!
He got another golden item again.
Although there were already three golden heroes under his command.
However, from the usual contact process.
Fang Yuan could not find out.
Christian, who was later upgraded to the golden legendary quality by external items, and Asis, who was obtained by forcibly increasing the recruitment probability by external items.
Their strength could not be compared with Lilith.
In addition to the difference in strength.
There was also the knowledge they had mastered.
Christian was inclined to religion and war.
And Asis was only proficient in air warfare.
Neither of them was an all-round talent.
Only Lilith, who was recruited with the golden item at the beginning.
Not only can she help me deal with the affairs of my territory, but she can also provide me with a lot of knowledge about the old continent.
At the same time, the powerful damage she carries makes her the star stone of my territory.
As long as Lilith is there, I can intimidate the surroundings.
But Christian and Asis can't do it.
So it's not difficult to draw a conclusion.
Compared with the heroes who were later promoted to gold by props or other means, they are not as powerful as the heroes recruited directly with golden items.
Heroes recruited directly with golden items.
Often have a strategic skill that can turn the situation around.
At this moment.
Fang Yuan looked at the golden item in his hand.
He couldn't wait to use it.
See how strong the golden units he could recruit were.
But he soon thought that he was still in the secret realm.
He couldn't leave the secret realm before completing the task.
He could only suppress this impulse.
Instead, he carefully put the golden item into the package.
And at this moment.
Lilith came over quickly.
"Lord."
"The wind walker who was scouting the map has returned."
Hearing this news, Fang Yuan's eyes lit up.
"Double happiness."
"Quick!"
"Bring it quickly."
In front of the sentry tower.
Fang Yuan opened the Lord's Seal.
At this time.
With the wind walkers returning one after another.
The map that was originally full of war fog is opening quickly.
"Lord."
"We brought 500 wind walkers this time."
"100 were sent in each direction, east, south, west, and north."
"The other 100 are randomly exploring."
"Now, of the 500 wind walkers who went out, 210 have returned."
"The rest of the wind walkers are likely to not come back."
"That is to say, just last night."
"We lost more than half of our high-level reconnaissance units."
"The danger level of this secret realm is very high."
Hearing this, Fang Yuan nodded.
"Indeed, this can be seen from the map."
"From the map explored by Windrunner."
"We can reach the city of Gib in Gondor in the south of the secret realm."
"We can reach the edge of the Rotten Swamp in the west."
"The eastern edge is an area called the Norton Mountains."
"The exploration in the north is not far, just to the Iron Shield City of the Orcs of the Wind Breath Empire."
Lilith said after a moment of silence.
"This should be the limit of a purple secret realm."
"In my memory, this area covers at least 1/3 of the Wind Breath Grassland."
"It's already very large."
Fang Yuan nodded and said.
"Actually, this is also a good thing for us."
"At least we know that the enemy we are facing this time is not the entire Orc Empire."
"It is just a large city-state."
"With many small cities of Orcs under this city-state."
"But overall, their strength will not be as terrifying as the entire Orc Empire."
Hearing this, Lilith laughed softly.
"The Lord's luck is always very good."
"Now we have the map of the surrounding area."
"Have you thought about how to move, Lord?"
"Look at the time, it's already been half a morning."
"The Orc Army should be coming soon."
Hearing Lilith's reminder.
Fang Yuan's mood, which had just been slightly relieved, became nervous again.
He then looked at the map and said.
"The watchtower we are currently in is located in the southwest-west direction of this map."
"It is only about 30 kilometers away from the castle opened by the Plantagenet family."
"It is more than 100 kilometers away from the nearest garrison camp to the north of the orcs."
"And the intelligence sent back by Windrunner."
"There is already an orc spear infantry heading south."
"If we want to move, we must not go north. Once we do so, we will inevitably collide with the orcs head-on."
"But I don't want to go to the fortress castle of the Plantagenet family."
"After being discovered by them, the benefits of completing the main quest will be sharply reduced. . "
"Going south is against the direction of our main quest."
"So if we want to move, the direction is actually fixed."
"Northwest."
"Go along the edge of the Mirkwood."
"From the intelligence we have obtained so far."
"No orcs have appeared over there yet."
"I guess the orc army thinks they have sent wolf riders to the front."
"That's why they didn't send more cavalry to search along the Mirkwood."
"And this is our chance."
"The army will go into the Mirkwood to hide and wait for information from Vanas."
After hearing Fang Yuan's plan, Lilith said after thinking for a while.
"Judging from the time, we should leave now."
"The orc spear infantry moving south should be able to reach the watchtower soon."
"Here at the watchtower, traces of yesterday's fighting are still there."
"The bodies of the killed wolf riders have not disappeared."
"This situation will definitely be discovered by the orc infantry."
"Next, they will definitely report the situation to the camp where the orc army is stationed."
"And in an orc camp, there must be a fast-response team."
"The most likely combination of the orcs is the wolf riders and the aerial bat army."
"If the orcs send out the bat army to search."
"The bat army is very fast in the air."
"The legion we brought this time includes slow-moving troops such as tower shields and greatsword infantry."
"At the same time, the 500 flame wizards without magic are even slower."
"By then, we won't be able to hide in the forest."
"We will be discovered by the searching bat army."
Lilith's words reminded Fang Yuan, and he also understood what Lilith meant.
"So you mean to destroy this orc infantry first?"
"There are quite a lot of orc infantry."
"There are as many as 8,000."
Lilith nodded and said.
"That's right."
"Destroy them first."
"Buy time for the slow legion to move into Mirkwood."
"At the same time!"
"After destroying them, send some demon knights as bait to advance southwest."
"Attract the orcs' power to the direction of the Plantagenet family's castle."
"Let them fight each other."
"In this way, no one will pay attention to us, and we can march safely in Mirkwood and reach the combat area."
"As for whether we can destroy them."
"Lord."
"According to my understanding, most of the orc spear infantry are slave soldiers."
"They are not very strong in combat and belong to the cannon fodder legion among the orcs."
"The truly powerful infantry of the orcs are the high-level races among the orcs, such as the Tiger Axe Legion."
"The lower-level mixed-blood orcs are often just slave laborers."
"Brainy can easily kill them with the demon knights."
"Besides, the lord is not short of kingdom reputation."
"Killing these orc infantry can also gain a lot of kingdom reputation."
Hearing this.
Fang Yuan looked at his Gondor Kingdom reputation of 35,500 points.
There is still a gap of more than 10,000 points from the 50,000 points required to accept the task.
Hunting the orc army, the battlefield treasure chest that can survive, and increasing reputation.
This is also what he urgently needs.
Thinking of this, he no longer insisted.
He quickly summoned Brenni.
After telling her the agreed plan.
Brenni said quickly.
"Lord, the plan is feasible."
"It is indeed as Lilith said."
"The orcs' spearmen are all slaves, and they have no combat power."
"Don't say 8,000, even if it is 10,000, my demon knights can easily wipe them out."
"I can complete the task in two hours at most."
"At that time, I will leave 100 demon knights as bait to the southwest, and then take the remaining demon knights to meet you."
Hearing Brenni's confident words.
Fang Yuan also made up his mind.
"Okay!"
"Let's do it."
"Order the whole army."
"According to the plan, immediately move to the dark forest in the northwest!"
"Yes!"
And not long after Fang Yuan moved with the main force.
Arranged in neat square formations.
Orc spearmen carrying spears over ten meters long appeared nearby.
As soon as they arrived here, they immediately found the wolf cavalry vanguards lying on the battlefield.
In the organization of the orc army.
Wolf riders are superior troops, orc nobles with noble blood!
They died on the battlefield.
This incident will arouse the anger of the orc governor in Iron Shield City.
And once it is investigated.
At that time, all the legions in their direction will be punished.
So after seeing the bodies of the wolf riders.
The leader of the orc spearmen felt a "thump" in his heart.
Then he shouted.
"Come here."
"Quick!"
"Send a message~"
Before he could finish his words.
Suddenly!
The leader of the orc spearmen suddenly fell down.
He pressed his body against the ground for a few seconds.
Then he stood up suddenly.
"Cavalry!"
"Enemy attack!"
"Arrange the formation~"
But by the time he found out, it was too late.
On the hillside not far from them.
The 2,000 demon knights who had been ambushed long ago kicked their horses' bellies.
The warhorses began to trot.
And Blayney, who was at the front, looked at the chaotic orc spear infantry.
"The chaotic infantry is weaker than lambs in front of the cavalry!"
A trace of cruel killing intent appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Speed up!"
"Flat spear!"
"Charge!!!"
In an instant!
Two thousand demon knights slammed into the spear formation that had not yet been deployed like a heavy tank.
Then!
The massacre began.
Just when Blayney easily defeated the orc spear infantry.
At the same time.
The main infantry led by Fang Yuan arrived in the dark forest.
Here.
They had just entered the forest.
Wind Walker came to report.
"Report!"
"Lord."
"News about Lord Vanas."
