The silver moon hangs high.
The withered forest falling into the night seems to have no change from the past. The dense branches and leaves and disorderly clumps of ancient trees make the forest seem to have lost the concept of time.
Whether the sun is shining or the starry sky is shining, it is ruled by darkness from beginning to end. The light in the sky can only vaguely pass through the canopy to make it more colorful.
The settlement originally belonging to the withered Forest Elves has long been in ruins, and only a section of towering black coke is left of the burned cloud canopy trees. The ogres who occupied here squatted here in groups, like loyal hyenas staring at the slightest movement in the nearby forest.
Huge figures hide in the darkness, and the dense forest has become their "wall". At the same time, any enemy who wants to bypass here can only dream.
If you want to cross the barren forest, this is the only way, and this ogre settlement is the guard dog.
The black haired wizard who was half kneeling on the tree trunk narrowed his eyes slightly. Standing under the tree, he was just blocked by the tree crown, pulled off the branches and carefully observed the enemy''s movements.
There are not many ogres gathered here, only a few dozen - in the past, it may have been a relatively large ogre settlement, but after the war of the big wall, these enemy black haired wizards have lost their eyes.
Considering that the vast majority of Ogres have gathered towards the big wall, it doesn''t seem incomprehensible. At present, the elves are struggling to resist alone, and the evil god doesn''t need to leave too many ogres to protect it.
It did not expect that these "weak" enemies would resist it.
Lauren''s mouth is a little more funny, and her pupils are full of killing intention - since you are so confident, let''s give you a "surprise".
"Everyone is ready, just waiting for your order."
Quietly appeared behind Lauren. Kono hesitated: "can''t you really get around? I look at the woods nearby, which are still very lush. If you are careful enough..."
"If you are careful enough..." Loren sighed when he heard this sentence: "the problem is that even if we are careful, we still have the possibility of being found - rather than dealing with them in panic at that time, we might as well eliminate them at once and minimize the risk."
After listening to his explanation, Kono nodded and stopped talking. Since he decided to believe in the human wizard, he did not intend to go back.
Turning his eyes to the enemy again, Loren slowly raised his right hand. Although it''s a pity that you can''t use magic, these enemies don''t need him to play a role at all. Just give it to the experienced war dancers behind you. They are the real "hunters"!
The palms fell suddenly, and the war dancers lurking in the dense forest finally began to act. Skillfully dispersed into their respective teams of three or two, carefully approaching their respective goals as close as possible.
Until this moment, there was still no movement in the whole dense forest - the dense forest obscured the figure of the war dancers, and the light footsteps put an end to the possibility of being found.
As long as he orders, half of the ogres in the settlement will become corpses!
And this will be the first battle of the expedition to the eternal night forest... The black haired wizard raised his mouth:
"Kill them all."
"Boom --!!"
The burst fire lights up the night sky, and the burst explosion shines on the earth like stars. Screams and wails came one after another, accompanied by those monsters with black smoke falling down one by one, fat bodies left huge pits in the soil, and the expedition sounded the horn of raid.
The trained war dancers didn''t give them any reaction time at all. While the igniter exploded, all the ogres around the whole settlement were gradually swept away.
The rest of them didn''t even know what had happened, but shouted like hyenas in place, and the sparse cry was like emboldening themselves.
One fell down one after another, and the screaming ogres became the prey of the war dancers - roaring into the dense forest. Before they even found the enemy, the shotguns flying from nowhere had blinded them. The war dancers who followed them fell from the sky and killed them with spears.
Yes, it''s not a battle. It''s hunting, and we''re hunters. We''re here to kill these monsters.
Loren calmly observed the whole process of the battle. So far, the progress has far exceeded his expectations. When a Female Elf put down the last Ogre with a shotgun, the monsters outside the settlement had been completely eliminated.
After sweeping the periphery, the war dancers began to gather and prepare to attack the ogres in the withered forest settlement.
Because there is only a piece of ruins left, there are few ancient trees that can be used as a cover in the withered forest settlements. If you rush in rashly, you will certainly suffer a lot of losses.
At this stage of the raid, the monsters have found them no matter how stupid they are - but who says they can only destroy these ogres by rushing in?
"The whole expedition is divided into two teams - Lord Kono is responsible for attracting their attention and restraining the ogres who rush out of the settlement; then izuria will take them to the Qiuye river. The turbulent river will help us solve all our problems!"
Smiling Loren, with his hands on his back, slowly glanced at Liya who was looking at him: "as for the remaining 80 war dancers, you will be responsible for strangling the ogres who tried to escape, and then the battle will end happily."
"Cunning liar," said the fairy, looking down on her.
"This is called tactics."
Loren shrugged his shoulders: "we are just a group of ordinary elves and humans. In the face of these mutant monsters, we have no power to fight back. Even if we can win, there are heavy casualties."
"We are weak, so we don''t fight with them openly: traps, group fights, encirclement and suppression, sneak attacks... This is the right way for a weak wizard to ravage a group of enemies who are too powerful than him - in a twinkling, let them disappear!"
Loren slowly raised his hands and smiled at the corners of his mouth. Without hesitation, he seemed to appreciate a grand pattern.
"Proud liar." Leia snorted, but did not go on, but stared at the back of the dark haired Wizard - although she hated this guy, she had to admit his calm appearance: "but... It''s more or less like a real soldier."
"... can I take this as a compliment?"
"You''re free." the fairy held her shoulder unconvinced.
The black haired wizard who was just about to make a joke suddenly widened his eyes and stood upright with cold hair!
An incomparably strong void breath suddenly surged around, as if it were a roaring wind gathering towards the center of the withered forest - even standing on the trunk so far away, Loren felt that he was about to be crushed by this force!
This is definitely not the power that a high-level spell can radiate. It''s mezka!
Is this a trap or was it found?!
"Come on, tell Kono and izuria to withdraw from the settlement!" Loren pressed the Female Elf''s shoulder with an unprecedented tension: "it''s too late!"
"What''s going on..."
"Don''t ask! In short, the plan stops and we retreat quickly!" impatient Loren had no time to explain why, turned and ran towards the main force of the expedition, and didn''t forget to continue to remind her: "no matter what happens, don''t hesitate..."
"Boom -!!!!"
It was another roar that broke the tranquility of the night. Loren, who was almost shaken down from the tree, picked up the branches, looked up in the direction of the sound, and his dark pupils suddenly shrank.
What is that?!
The huge figure is more than 30 meters, as if standing in the dense forest like a giant. The incomparably strong figure is definitely not comparable to the slow and fat monster of the giant monster.
With wide eyes and surprise, Loren suddenly understood something - such a monster has the absolute ability to destroy the big wall!
After a while, Loren restrained his trembling hands and shouted with all his strength:
"Retreat -!!!"
