Chapter 311 The Eve of the Final Battle

"We should report the intelligence to Frost Fortress in time." Locke said: "Maybe other legions have also suffered the same attack. If the information can be compiled, it may be helpful to get to the bottom of it."

"That makes sense!" Leiter nodded with deep understanding, looked at the legion commander and said, "Ledros, why don't we give up on that group of high-level orcs first, go back to Frost Fortress and tell the commander what happened here."

"No problem, I'll go there with you. Maybe there will be an ambush on the way." Ledroth's eyes flickered and he answered seriously.

More than a week later, Frost Fortress.

Leiter, Locke, and Ledros reported the news to Deputy Commander Bomir in the hall on the first floor. The other party listened to the report completely, his eyes rolled left and right in his eye sockets, and he paced back and forth in the room in confusion. , sight wandering. Half a minute later, he put his hands on Leiter's shoulders, looked at him intently and asked:

"Leiter, are you sure you are not the Sky Knight of the Cold Current Defense Line? If... you feel the slightest familiarity, please be sure to explain the situation to me."

Locke on the side replied for Leiter:

"Sir Bomir, please rest assured. I am more familiar with the situation on the Cold Current Defense Line than Leiter. The person who ambushed us on the road is definitely not our traitor!"

Bomir breathed a sigh of relief. As the deputy commander, when encountering such a thing, the first thing to consider is whether there is an internal problem. It is easy to dodge open guns but hard to defend against hidden arrows. Ensuring that there are no spies internally is the key to resisting external enemies.

"Well, in that case, I'm relieved." Bomir's face softened and he said: "I have written down the information you just provided, and I will convey it to the commander-in-chief immediately when he comes back. But in the next few days, the orcs will The offensive may be slowed down, and you can also slightly reduce the frequency of missions outside, but the training must not be skipped.”

Ledras said loudly: "Received, please rest assured, Sir Bomir, the Sixth Army will not relax even if the orcs are not eliminated for a day!"

"Haha, okay, I believe in everyone's morale and determination!"

Bomir patted the light armor on his body and gave a few words of encouragement in a loud voice. Then he made an excuse, saying that he had important matters to attend to, and politely asked Leiter and his party to leave.

"Sir Bomir, see you next time!" Leiter and his party waved their hands and left the door.

The hall on the first floor of Frost Fortress was empty and quiet again.

However, a majestic figure appeared from the corner of the stairs on the second floor. It was the King of Milan. He was wearing a fiery red ceremonial robe, with his hands behind his back. He walked to the hall and walked slowly to the edge of the sand table, taking a look at the ice belt stream. area, frowned and said:

"It's a pity. If I continue to spy on Leiter, I can go to the scene in person and see the origins of those three people. But it doesn't matter. There is no need to doubt Leiter's identity, and there is no need to continue monitoring..."

Bomir turned around and waited: "Your Majesty the King, the information reported by Leiter just now..."

"I heard everything." The King of Milan said in a low voice: "I already have some clues about the origins of those three people. In the next period of time, I will start investigating the matter and will temporarily leave the cold current defense line. Here... just Leave it to you and Ankus."

"Understood!" Bomir said: "Your Majesty the King, I have a suggestion here. The orcs have died in five holy areas at once, and the morale of the orc camp will be greatly reduced. Should we take this opportunity to launch a general attack?"

After hearing this, the King of Milan looked hesitant and his eyes flickered. He picked up a handful of quicksand from the sand table and held it in his palm, but he still did not make a decision.

In the end, he let go of his hand, letting the loose sand slide down the gap, and said decisively: "No need, the orcs are not short of sanctuaries, but there are only five fewer sanctuaries, which is far from the level of serious damage to the vitality. We can still provide timely support. But now our war with the orcs is suspected of involving a third party. This is not the right time to fight to the death with the orcs, so as not to let the secret forces take advantage. "

Hearing that there were secret forces with ulterior motives, Bomir's heart tightened and worry flashed in his eyes. However, when he heard that His Majesty the King would personally resolve the matter, he took a deep breath and knew that all he could do was to maintain the cold current defense line. The battle situation was stable, he nodded vigorously and said: "I know what to do. Next, I will balance the forces below and mobilize more scouts to detect the enemy's situation to prevent unexpected situations."

"You have been in an important position for many years and have rich experience. I am very relieved." The King of Milan took a deep look at Beaumire and said: "But there is no shortage of talents in our army, and those who are capable should be reused, such as... Lei Special and Locke, if there is a suitable opportunity in the future, they will be promoted.”

Bomir's eyes widened slightly, and he quickly lowered his head and responded: "Copy that, I will pay attention to these two people from time to time."

More than two months later.

In a valley covered with gravel, the remains of orcs and humans were scattered everywhere, blood soaked every stone, and the smell of corpses, coke, and blood mixed together, filling every inch of space.

On the battlefield at this time, the fierce battle had long ended, and only the screams of some orcs were left, proving that they were defeated and had to surrender in the face of the harvest of human soldiers.

Mycroft sniffed the smell gently, frowned slightly, raised the wand in his hand, and condensed a large amount of wind elements to take away the unpleasant smell around him. Then he looked at the hill in front of him. Pieces of quicksand swept halfway up the mountainside, shrouding more than two hundred remaining pig-headed men, tauren, and night owls. Tucker held a huge black bow and shot out poison-quenching sharpeners. Arrows, take away the orcs whose movement is restricted.

[For family members, if they kill the enemy by one level, their fate will be +1]

[Family members advance to the second level to kill the enemy, and their fate value +1]

Relying on Tucker's efforts to clean up the mess, Leiter first gathered his troops. Then, he stood at the front of more than 300 soldiers and watched Tucker draw the bow and string again and again, taking away the lives of the orcs one after another.

Light screens continued to appear in front of Leiter's eyes, and his destiny value continued to rise, which made him unconsciously smile. He called up the system again, glanced at the [Destiny Value: 26311] column in the panel, and his thoughts were unconscious again. The ground began to fly...

"With more than 10,000 destiny points, it is estimated that I can break through to the peak of the Great Mage, but if I want to cross the threshold of the Holy Realm, the destiny points I consume must be in units of 10,000..."

"It's still a little bit worse, just bear with it a little longer... Phew..."

Leiter took a deep breath, turned to look at Lawrence, and said, "Lawrence, how long have we been out this time?"

"Sir, as of today, we have been out for sixteen days." Lawrence replied without thinking.

"Your talent has always been very good. I heard that you have reached the peak of level three knights?" Leiter said with a smile.

"Thank you for your concern, sir. It's true. It reached its peak two months ago. I'm going to cross this bottleneck with the help of life and death training on the orc battlefield!"

Leiter patted Lawrence heavily on the shoulder: "Hahaha, I like this determination very much. I promise you that if you break through to the Earth Knight before the war is over, I will take the initiative to say goodbye to you when you get back!"

Lawrence was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up with surprise, and he said sonorously: "Thank you, sir... No, thank you, sir!"

"It depends on your efforts..." Leiter shook his head with a smile and looked forward again. It wasn't until Tucker harvested the last orc and returned to the team that he turned around and said in a heavy voice:

"The entire army listens to orders, drinks animal wine, and prepares to return to the stronghold!"

"Yes, sir!"

Four days later.

Leiter led his troops back to the temporary stronghold of the Sixth Army. While walking along a sandy-yellow path, he happened to see a small group of scouts approaching. The leader wore a camouflage helmet. When he saw Leiter, he was stunned for a moment, and then Then he came up to him in surprise and said:

"Deputy Commander Leiter? You are finally back!"

"Tirus, did something urgent happen?" Leiter said in surprise as he looked at the scout in front of him, who looked a little anxious.

“It’s not really urgent, but you’ll be happy to hear it!”

"Please tell me if you have any good news!" Leiter said with great interest.

"Just three days ago, news came from the Cold Current Camp that an orc spy planted in the human camp was eliminated by several saints!" Tirus said with excitement: "Sir Leiter, how are you? Curious who the spy is?"

A flash of realization flashed in Lei Te's mind, it turned out to be this...but he still blinked and pretended to be confused: "Who is it?"

"Sheman of the Kingdom of Gray!"

The short Tirus looked up at Leiter and said in an excited voice: "That was a strong man from the Holy Realm who rose up decades ago. I heard that he was captured alive this time, and then the king of the Shilu Kingdom personally Come over here and finish it off in person in front of many people!”

"Is there such a thing?" Leiter seemed to be shocked and speechless. After a moment, he breathed a sigh of relief, patted Tirus on the shoulder, and asked: "Last time I sent you to the vicinity of Jackdaw Valley. Investigation, did you find anything?”

Tirus straightened his face and responded: "I lurked there for more than half a month. I searched the surrounding areas and found nothing unusual. If the only strange thing is that there was no such thing during that half month. Found traces of orcs passing by nearby."

"Although it does not necessarily mean there is a problem, when I carried out missions in the past, I could basically find orcs more or less shuttled through the battlefield, but not this time, which should be considered an anomaly."

"It could also be a coincidence." Leiter frowned and nodded, and said, "I know, Tirus, you did a good job! After you go down, tell your colleagues that if you find that the number of people is small and the physical condition is low when performing missions in the future, Weird knights, please report to me in time and avoid contact with them.”

Weird knight?

Tirus looked confused and a little confused, but he still responded and replied: "Understood, sir! By the way, the legion commander has been looking for you these days. When we are sent out this time, we will contact you as soon as possible. You'd better meet Commander Ledros as soon as possible."

"I know, go find him now!"

After Leiter finished speaking, he dismissed the soldiers behind him, accelerated and ran towards the hill in the middle, walked into the cave, and soon came to the hall and saw Ledros next to the sand table.

"I heard you were looking for me?" Leiter walked over and sat on a stone bench on the carpet.

"Well, you've been out for more than half a month. I don't know your whereabouts. I'm worried that something bad happened to you." Ledros was wearing green light leather armor today. He raised his head and straightened his back and said, "Thunder Te, I know you are going to kill the orcs, and you are more enthusiastic than anyone else! But I heard that the orcs have recently been gathering troops and temporarily closing the front line, so if you want to kill the orcs, it is inevitable. The ground is deep behind enemy lines. Fortunately, you came back in time, otherwise I would have gone out to find you myself."

"Huh? What are the orcs going to do when they gather their troops?" Leiter frowned and said, "Should we retreat or launch a general attack?"

"The possibility of retreat is very small. Commander Ankus said that the orcs have sent a new sanctuary to take charge, which means that the other party must intend to continue to hold on to the cold current defense line." Ledros held a chess piece in his fingers and shook it gently, saying: "So, the possibility of their general attack is very high, and the Frost Camp sent me an order to gather our troops and be ready for flank support at any time. Once the signal comes again, it will be the time for our flank attack!"

"How many troops do we have outside?" Lei Te's face also became solemn, pacing back and forth in the room.

"Not many, only some scouts and a few hundred soldiers are left. I have sent people out to contact." Lei Te said.

"Okay, then I will stay in the base for the next few days and not go out."

As Lei Te said, he stopped and came to the edge of the sand table, that is, the southeast area of ​​the battlefield, where their base was located.

Next, the two began to discuss the battlefield situation of the cold current defense line, speculate on the various directions of the battle, the influencing factors, and the personnel deployment and tactical arrangements when launching a flank attack, etc.

Until dark, the two were still discussing, but the frequency of speaking was quite slow, and new insights would only come up every few dozen minutes.

Accompanied by a hurried sound of footsteps, a knight from the cold current camp delivered a sealed letter.

The two carefully observed it and confirmed that it was correct. There was no possibility of impersonation or forgery, because the material of the letter paper was transformed by alchemical means. Even if ordinary people got it, they would be helpless if they didn't know how to check it or didn't have the conditions to check it.

Ledros quickly took out the letter paper, stimulated a crystal-like fighting spirit belonging to the sky knight, and slapped it on the letter paper. The paper was instantly turned into ashes, but strands of elemental light intertwined in the air, forming an arrow-like pattern.

The two looked in the same direction, their expressions became much more serious. After looking at each other, they nodded at the same time and walked out of the cave together.

The two acted separately according to the plan discussed in advance in the afternoon. Ledros went to the training ground to gather soldiers, and Rhett left the base as soon as possible with the two hundred elites who had been waiting outside the cave.

At this time, the stars are dim, the moon has just risen, and the clouds still have clear outlines in the sky. The cold front in summer is less cold than in winter, but the unique roaring sound is endless.
