It has been a full month since we set off from the elves. Elder Lyman said that at the current speed, we will probably be able to reach the location of the teleportation array in three or four days.
In this more than a month, a lot of things happened. Let’s start with me. The first is the adventurers around me. As mentioned before, Elder Lyman used the method of fishing with a line and borrowed it from various villages. Many elven soldiers were recruited, bringing the number of adventurers from 204 to more than 300.
Of course, it was not all smooth sailing. During the patrol, six elves were missing. If they disappeared in a place like this, it was most likely an accident. There could be no exceptions. As for our alliance, let the mercenary team The weaker team of job transfers stayed to defend, while the elite team sent out patrols. In addition, I took over most of the tasks, so there have been no casualties so far.
There were also many casualties among the more than 3,000 elven civilians. As far as I know, the biggest one was when we were patrolling outside at noon one day. The team happened to pass by the river, and suddenly a large group of swamp residents jumped from the river. came out and kidnapped forty or fifty people on the spot. Although in the end these swamp residents were all killed by the adventurers, the people who were eaten could never be recovered. When I came back that night, there were three thousand people in the resting place. Many elves were in mourning, and fear and pessimism enveloped everyone's hearts, making people unable to calm down for a long time.
So far, more than 3,000 elven civilians have lost 176 people, and the casualty rate has reached 5. Elder Lyman said that this is a very rare number. When he said this with a smile, tears flowed out, However, there should not be any casualties in the next four or five days, because the closer to the teleportation station, the smaller the density of monsters. The safer it is.
Looking further ahead, focus on the attack of the dwarves. After one month, this operation is coming to an end. According to the statistics of the three brigades, the number of dark wanderers they encountered alone exceeds 100. This is Or because the number of adventurers in our alliance is limited, we can only cover a small elven area.
According to incomplete statistics from Elder Leman. This time the number of Dark Wanderers reached more than a thousand. If calculated based on each dwarf leading 3,000 people, the total number of enemies attacking the dwarf village this time actually reached nearly 4 million. After getting this number, I He was so frightened that he couldn't close his mouth for several minutes. Compared with the attack by the monster in Rogge's camp, it was just like drizzle.
Of course, this does not mean that it can resist the army of 3 million dwarfs. The elves are already far better than the Rogge camp.
First, due to the distribution of humans, there were only more than 100,000 people in Rogge Camp at the time, and the total number of adventurers and career changers was only over 10,000. Their strength was all below level three, while the elves had millions accumulated. Together, I don’t know how many elf warriors there are in total, but they take advantage of the level.
There is a law. It may be a little difficult for a level 1 job changer to deal with a level 1 monster, but it is extremely easy for a level 30 job changer to deal with a level 30 monster. Because compared with level 30 monsters, the attributes have been improved, and there may be one or two more skills. And the difference between level 1 job changers and level 30 job changers is not just about attributes. The gap is more important in skills. There are 12 more skills and countless combat experience. I believe this is not difficult to understand.
Second: the types are simple. Although the number is close to four million. But apart from the threat of the Dark Wanderer, there are only the dwarves. If the monsters in the camp attacked at that time, all the monsters inside would be Sinking Demon Land. No matter how many times it is, it won't be so embarrassing.
Third. This is also the most important point. Dark Wanderers operate as a single unit. Easy to defeat one by one. If they are all gathered together. Nearly 4 million troops are threatened. I'm afraid those high-level elves are not so relaxed and happy.
above. This is my summary of the difference between the dwarf attack from the elves and the monster attack from Rogge camp. outside. There is also the impact of the dwarf attacks on the elves. I don’t know the casualties of the goblin tribe caused by this attack. Only the higher-ups of the Elf clan know the specific figures. But I have seen the benefits. first. Through the baptism of war and cooperation in collective combat. The elven warriors have become more mature. There is no doubt about it.
But I think the biggest benefit is the change in the mentality of the entire elves. The elves are a race that loves peace and hates war. But after this dwarf attack. But it ignited the hatred and anger of the elves. They realize the importance of strength. Just look at the more than 3,000 elven civilians in the area I protect. After a month of hard work. Many children and young people became determined. And determined to become a warrior to protect the elves. You can imagine. in the future. The number of adventurers in the entire Elf Tribe will increase dramatically.
at last. This is what I have always paid most attention to. The adventurers on our alliance side suffered casualties. So far. In all the information that came through. I only know that we have sacrificed one job-changer and three mercenaries (this may be related to the conservative course of action formulated by Thorne and I). Perhaps this is a bit rude to these dead people. But after I saw this number. Apart from being slightly sad. I feel more happy in my heart. Because more adventurers survived.
The night is as cold as water. The blood-red full moon has risen into the sky. Silent night enveloped this land. There was only the burned-out bonfire outside. There was a cracking sound from time to time in the cold wind. Hundreds of tents are densely distributed. Quietly. It was pitch black. Only one of the tents still had a fire burning.
Under the swaying magic power. I lay flat on the table. His sleepy eyes were almost narrowed into a straight line. But he still kept waving the Zhongzhongdi quill. On the blank notebook, I recorded my understanding of this operation crookedly. The manuscript will then be sent back to Rogge Camp to Akara. certainly. There will definitely be some missing content inside. After all, I'm just an ordinary person. If this mediocre note can make Akara realize that I don't have the ability to be a general. That couldn't be better.
When the last punctuation mark landed on the manuscript, which was already filled with words as twisted and awkward as earthworms, I gently threw the quill aside and stretched out. Then I gently use fire to dry the writing on it, roll it up and tie it up. As for whether the word "Akara" inside can be read or not, that's not what I have to worry about. Anyway, that's our level.
"Tek----"
As I shouted softly, a tall and thin man dressed as an adventurer immediately appeared outside the tent and handed him the codex in his hand.
"Thank you for your hard work, don't worry. This is not an important note. You should go down and have a good rest first."
I nodded approvingly at him. Tyke was an assassin-type mercenary. He arrived in the evening and conveyed the information in his hand to me. He overheard that I seemed to want to write a summary note and send it back, so he immediately I patted my chest and took on this task.
Originally, I planned to write this note after completing the escort mission, that is, when the entire support operation was almost over. But seeing Tyke’s passionate eyes, what else can I say? I wrote it overnight so that he could go down and rest early. Anyway, the operation is almost over. With the decrease in the number of dark wanderers, I guess nothing will happen in the past few days. Writing now is not much different from writing after the operation is over.
"I understand, sir, please rest assured. Even if I risk my life, I will protect this note."
No. You didn't understand anything, you didn't hear what I just said, right? ,
After taking the manuscript from my hand, Tyke's face was full of excitement. That is a kind of vulnerability that can only be possessed by workaholics who are full of fanatical love for work. Has this operation awakened another dark side of the souls of many mercenaries? Should this be considered a good thing?
Soon, Tyke left in the darkness. Judging from his expression before leaving, I can 100% guess that he would send the code out overnight, or even stay awake until he handed the code directly to the master of Kurast.
young. How good!
Talk. Tyke should be at least ten years older than me. Is my heart already starting to grow old?
I was frustrated by this for a while. I finally couldn't resist the Sandman's invasion, so I yawned and pushed aside the three or five princesses who were sleeping soundly on the bed. In her sleep, she lost her usual indifference. The delicate facial features that were close at hand, and the slightly flapping little nose were so cute that people couldn't help but want to pinch them with their hands and play with them, but I still held back. He just kissed her sweet face, then sighed and closed her eyes.
Worry, what fills my heart is an increasingly strong worry. This attack by the Dark Wanderer is not simple. Who can organize such a large-scale operation? Who is operating behind the scenes? Will it show up in the end? These worries have been hanging over me.
In the end, I can only attribute it to the elves. It actually controls the dwarfs to attack the elves. So the ultimate target must be the elves. Naturally, there are experts from the elves to worry about. It has nothing to do with me or the alliance. Although this idea A little selfish, but that's human nature.
So, such selfish thoughts allowed me to have a peaceful sleep again.
On the fourth day, we arrived at the teleportation point of the elves as we wished. As we expected along the way, these four days were the safest and most relaxing time of the entire trip. When the small village accompanying the wild teleportation station appeared in front of us When the time came, the adventurers who had gone through hardships finally couldn't help but let out loud cheers, and the elven civilians were even more unbearable. They had never experienced such frightening torture. They had already covered their faces and cried bitterly, for their own survival and for their own survival. Death of friends and relatives.
Seeing this scene, I once again felt the ruthlessness of the superiors.
"My child, on behalf of the entire elves, I invite you and your warriors to come to our Elf King City as guests. I will tell all the elves that without you, there would be no more than three thousand elves."
Inside the teleportation station, Elder Leman solemnly extended an invitation to me.
"Furthermore, our Royal Highness the Elf Queen and Great Elder Yalande also really want to meet you, a young and promising elder, and express our gratitude in person."
"Of course, it's an honor."
I bowed lightly to Elder Leman. It’s not that I didn’t like this kind of social interaction, but as the person in charge of the operation and representing the entire alliance, if I came to the transfer station in the Elf King City, I would be treated by the most noble person among the elves. The Queen and the Great Elder's warm invitation, but still refused, then I am afraid that the favorability of the elves accumulated in this operation will directly drop to a negative value.
However, when Elder Lyman and I were about to step into the teleportation station, an intelligence mercenary hurried over from a distance. His eyes were bloodshot and his steps were shaky. It was obvious at a glance that he had been there for at least several days. No sleep.
There was an anxious expression on his face that made me extremely uneasy, and the news he rushed to convey to my ears made my expression suddenly change.
