An Ordinary Fantasy Adventure in the Continent of Faerun

Chapter 237 Breakout

In the brief exchange and observation, the master understood the huge problem facing the fortress at present, and then she asked Ravengard about the specific movements of the demons in the city, and concluded that the demons outside the fortress did not seem to have any intention to attack.

Perhaps it was because the demons knew that they had already won, so at most they only launched some tentative attacks, Ravengard said to Master Jaheira.

At the same time, the number of demons outside was very small, so the master judged that the demons neither wanted nor had the ability to attack the border with all their forces. After all, only this number of demons did not have enough volume, and even if the city gate had been destroyed, they were unlikely to attack the fortress.

So she was a little relieved about the current situation, and immediately released a large number of mass resurrection spells through the druid's spellcasting ability to stabilize the wounded, and then used the low-level spell slot to cast the Godberry spell to create a large number of Godberries that could both feed and heal injuries.

The master's actions brought them hope and stabilized their position. As long as they were given a little more time, and the wounded recovered their health, or at least recovered a certain combat effectiveness, the Duke could prepare a counterattack plan. As long as the raid was fast enough, this plan had a great chance of success, and this opportunity must be seized.

But what no one expected was that just a few hours ago, the devil army, which had been sitting still, suddenly attacked them, as if these devils knew how long the people in the city could hold out, or knew about the master's arrival and the changes he made.

Ravengard didn't know the specific situation, but no matter what the truth was, the devils' sudden large-scale attack was real and not false, and it was like a direct hit on their weaknesses. It had to be said that the devils picked a good time, at least for them.

Although the wounded in the army have been treated and recovered to a certain extent, and most of them have escaped from the state of serious injury and dying, they still need a period of rest to fully recover.

During this period, they had no fighting ability, and forcing them to the battlefield would only lead to their death. Master Jaheira, who was supposed to be the strongest fighter on their side, was almost unable to cast spells at this moment.

The master had already used up all the high-level spell slots, and it had not been a day yet, and the master had not had time to restore the spell slots. Now, apart from some tricks and sporadic first and second-level spells, the only thing she could do to face these demons was to use the druid's signature skill, the wild transformation. So two hours ago, the master followed Ravengard to participate in this war in wild form, but after that, something unexpected happened.

The commander of the demon army actually took a fancy to Jaheira's wild form! At the same time, he changed the offensive form of the demon army in a rather outrageous and willful way.

Under Lucier's order, he let most of the demons leave the original lineup and focus most of their energy on capturing Jaheira. Although the master didn't understand the infernal language very well, she still discovered this strange situation.

So she used herself as bait to lead more than half of the demons present, including the commander of the demons, out of the main battlefield, and then the situation is like this.

Master Jaheira now has no extra wild transformation times. As a druid, she is not a member of the Moon Society that specializes in wild form attacks, but a member of the Earth Society that focuses more on the combination of melee and spellcasting. Therefore, she can only transform twice a day before resting to calm her magic power.

And in these two transformations, one of them was transformed into a crow and sneaked into the military camp fortress, and the other was the current black panther form.

Although the druid can keep the animal form as long as it does not suffer serious injuries in the animal form, the master no longer has the ability to continue to transform. At least before resting, she can never transform into other animals, which means that she can't transform into a crow and fly away.

The Duke knows the master's current situation, and he also understands that if the master really has something here, if the master is really caught by these demons, then this city can be said to be really finished.

He couldn't let this happen, so even though the situation was extremely critical, he resolutely brought a team of knights to support the master, and then this is what happened now.

The Hell Knights rushed into the encirclement under the deliberate indulgence of the demons, and then more than 20 knights surrounded the airtight iron barrel, protecting Duke Ravengard and Master Jaheira in the iron hedgehog built with shields and spears.

"You shouldn't have come. No matter what the purpose of those demons is, they obviously just want to capture me, not kill me. In this case, even if I am captured, I have a great chance of escaping after I recover my spellcasting ability."

Jaheira in the panther form said breathlessly. As a great druid, Jaheira can speak even in animal form, and Ravengard shook his head after hearing this, and then responded.

"Don't talk nonsense, Master. We can't bet our survival on the kindness of the devil, and this thing won't exist on the devil."

"We can only have a slight chance of survival if we fight hard. Even if time goes back and I can make a decision again, I will still do it."

While speaking, Ravengard tightened the shield on his arm, and then he observed the situation outside through the gap between the shields. The demons had formed a battle formation and pressed forward silently. These silent legions brought a great sense of oppression at this time.

The Duke did not look again, but turned to Master Jahira and said.

"We must rush out."

"How to rush? I can see that the endless battles have exhausted your physical strength. You are no longer able to launch another round of charge. As I said before, Duke, you should not have come at all."

"Don't say these discouraging words, Master, I won't do anything without the slightest hope. There are still some spell scrolls left in my space bag, including a spell scroll of the six-ring spell, Sun Ray."

"I will use this scroll to open a channel. This spell is very powerful and it is a straight line attack. It can definitely open a straight passage for us, but I can't guarantee how long this passage can exist. We must rush out at this time. Master, I need you to be the vanguard."
