Chapter 119 The Familiar Name Appears Again

After the team members stood on the tower, all except the dwarves exclaimed in a low voice.

Flint clenched his hammer and shouted, "What's wrong? What's going on? Are the orcs attacking the city? What are you shocked about?"

Only Rosalie looked at the dwarf, probably she had never seen the dwarf's reaction when facing the battlements.

I also couldn't see the little white hands and feet below and climbed up the mage's neck to ride on it, and then made a "wow" sound.

The elf whispered: "It is estimated that there are 10,000+ people, maybe all the orc tribes from the entire wasteland have come."

Wang: "More than that, not only the men of the orc tribe can fight, but also the female orcs are very powerful. Although the old orcs are not as strong as their prime, they are also stronger than ordinary human males. It can be said that the entire race of orcs are warriors.

"Besides, with so many middle-aged men going out, the women and children of the tribe may face the dilemma of reducing the prey shortage, so when the orc tribe sets out to plunder, they usually bring their families along.

"If there are [-] orc men in the prime of life on this plain, it means that there will be three times as many female orcs, old orcs and children behind them. If they are pressed, they will all come up and fight for their lives."

Rosalie looked at Wang: "Are you...so familiar with orcs?"

Wang: "I have read a book called "Research on the Common Races of Geralia", written by my teacher. It contains all records of all races except the views on marriage and love."

Rosalie: "Why is the concept of marriage and love missing alone? Wait a minute, is it just the concept of marriage and love? So the birth method is still recorded?"

Wang: "Yes. So I also have complete knowledge. Once I have a love partner in this plane, I can ensure that everything goes smoothly afterwards."

Elizabeth asked with a blushing face, "Tell me clearly what went well!"

At this time, Rosalie's eldest brother, the eldest prince Eowyn, appeared on the city wall.As soon as he appeared, he saluted the king: "Father heard that you were going to visit the city wall, so he specially asked me to explain the situation to you."

Malika suddenly appeared and stood between the eldest prince and everyone: "It's amazing, you actually appeared at this time. The palace is far away from the Royal Library where we live. In addition to the time here, you are actually in our The back foot arrives.

"You will know this as soon as we go out. But I have killed all the spies who watched us in the dark alley."

Eowyn smiled: "You did clean our eyeliner, but you don't know, we just gave the administrator of the Wangli Library a sound transmission stone."

Malika frowned, and it seemed that he had nothing to do with this kind of "spy" on the surface.

Wang: "Sound transmission stone? Now that the war is in progress, why should a librarian be given this kind of thing that can conduct instant command and communication? Just to keep track of our movements?"

Eowyn laughed: "We are Monrovia. Every one of our generals has this kind of sound transmission stone. We have a huge command tower with countless compartments, and each compartment corresponds to five generals." , the sound transmission stones of the generals are placed, and there are special personnel on duty."

The sound transmission stones are in pairs and can only transmit sound to each other.

Elizabeth suddenly thought of something, and turned her head to ask the king: "Do you also use sound transmission stones in the mage tower to communicate?"

"No, we use communication badges. Everyone can name their own badge. When using it, just press the badge with your thumb and shout out the name of the badge you want to connect to, and the other party's badge will vibrate. At this time, the other party only needs to use your thumb to Press the badge to call."

As he spoke, Wang took out the badge from the dimension bag: "This is my badge, it's called communication unit 01."

Rosalie: "Does that mean there is still communication unit 02?"

"No, there isn't. But it's not handsome enough to call it a communication unit, and it's much more handsome with an 01."

As he spoke, the mage pressed his thumb on the badge and shouted: "Dog!"

Then the badge is unresponsive.

Wang: "Look, badges can't communicate across planes. The badge called Goudan is not in this plane, so you can't call him."

Nini asked curiously: "Why did you specifically contact him? Is he a person of extraordinary significance to you?"

"No, he is an orc. He became a mage with the IQ of an orc. Together with the person who said that he would become a mage no matter how lame he is, it is a legend in our tower. This legend does not refer to spellcasting ability, but to experience."

Eowyn watched Wang's team discuss these with a smile on his face, and interjected at the right moment: "I really hope we can have this kind of advanced magic props here."

Wang: "In some planes, this can be done without magic. In fact, there is a view in our tower that magic restricts the development of other skills on the plane.

"Some planes obviously have no magic, but they can create ships that appear in another space coordinates spanning hundreds of millions of kilometers in an instant, but on their ships, craftsmen in red clothes often die suddenly, which looks like some kind of sacrifice. magic.

"In another plane, magic is only telepathy, but it can create golems that can freely enter and exit the crystal wall system. The magic ship on that plane is always damaged on the port side, as if the fate of the ship has been artificially corrected. "

Wang suddenly stopped and looked at the silent crowd: "What's wrong?"

Nini: "It's nothing, what you said about other planes is very interesting, I really want to go and see it one day."

Elizabeth was shocked and immediately said: "I want to go too! I want to go!"

Wang: "If you don't break away from the stream of time, going to too many planes will have side effects. Most people can't afford to switch time streams frequently. You have to upgrade. There are also people in our mage tower who can't upgrade, so they can only come out once in a while to study."

He paused, and added: "I'm afraid that I will become such a person, so I want to master the nine-ring spellcasting ability and obtain the admission qualification to pursue promotion."

Éowyn had been listening to the king's words, and said at this moment: "So, you still have to leave this plane in the end?"

Wang: "The home of a powerful mage is the stars, ah, the 'stars' here refer to different planes."

Elizabeth suddenly felt melancholy: "So you... don't actually want to find someone who can drive a carriage with you to do business?"

"Think about it." The mage replied immediately.

Elizabeth: "What if she can't be promoted?"

Wang: "Ah, our mage tower has the technology to forcibly upgrade."

"Eh?" Elizabeth looked at him in surprise, "You just said that there are people who cannot be promoted!"

"Because these technologies have side effects, basically everything except the soul has changed. The body of the planeswalker who normally embraces the stars is still the original body. Forced upgrade is actually just a superior form of lichization. So some people are unwilling to choose."

Elizabeth sighed: "I... can warlocks also look up at the stars?"

Wang: "I don't know. Maybe warlocks can rely on their own inspiration and charm to perceive the ultimate mystery of the universe through instinct? After all, if a warlock's blood is strong, it is possible to perform nine-ring arcane magic when he wakes up. Since The nine-ring arcane technique is fine, and the secrets of the universe must be fine too."

Flint: "If you can't, take a gamble with some wild mushrooms."

At this time, Rosalie said to her eldest brother: "You are listening very attentively, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Monrovia is not an electorate, and the eldest son of the Myhrvold family can inherit the empire, just like other dukes and earls.

Eowyn: "I like these questions too. It's a pity that I have no talent in magic, otherwise I might give up the throne and pursue the mysteries of magic."

Rosalie: "You came here just to say this?"

Eowyn: "Of course not. But it looks like the orcs are only building siege camps and siege engines today, so the military situation is not too urgent."

The sergeant next to him looked like he wanted to talk, but in Monrovia, when you are low in status, you can't speak first without the permission of someone with high status.

Rosalie noticed the sergeant's expression and said, "What do you want to say, sergeant?"

After the sergeant got the permission to speak, he immediately said: "The city wall of Minos is so high. When the orcs came here, they couldn't build a siege tower that high. They didn't have enough architectural and design skills. It looks like it's made of rubbish, and it's so fragile that it could be shot through with a ballista."

After the sergeant finished speaking, Éowyn nodded, "Thank you for your insight, Sergeant."

He turned his head and looked down the city wall.

The mage also came to the prince, took out the binoculars and looked down together.

The orcs are using shields to cover and set up bunkers in the open space in front of the city wall to cover their own archers when they attack.

Farther away, the orcs built camps, raised fences to block people from entering and leaving, and watch towers were also being built.

However, the tower of the siege tower has not been seen at all. It may really be as the sergeant said, and it is too difficult for the orcs to build.

Farther away, beyond the sight of the king, the orcs had built a logging camp and were cutting down the bushes around Minos.

At this moment, Connaught, the emperor's military chief, Clover Knight, came out of the tower on the wall of the White City, and came here with a group of generals.

When he arrived in front of the prince, the old general first saluted the prince, then turned to the king, and finally saluted Rosalie.

Wang: "Strange, shouldn't you salute the two royal heirs first? I'm just a mage passing by."

Connaught said: "Your Majesty's order is that you are the most honorable guest, and your status is higher than his own. But I heard that you are a reasonable person, so you should know that if I really ignore the prince, first tell me You salute, in the future..."

Eowyn: "Don't worry, Master."

Connaught: "I have not served as your teacher. I dare not take this title."

"But I want to learn the skills of military command from you, teacher. You are the hero of the last orc war. The 'military expert' my father found for me is basically talking on paper, only talking about being analyzed and researched thoroughly. The famous battle of the Communist Party of China, I have no opinions or feelings of my own."

Connaught: "The biggest feeling I've been in the military so far is that I'd rather not be so familiar with war. The only good thing is that war is so terrible that no one likes it."

The two were talking, and Wang interrupted directly: "General Connaught, right? I have a question."

Elizabeth sighed, and teased, "You either have a problem, or you have a plan, choose one of the two. As for the situation and atmosphere, you don't care at all."

Wang: "Is there something wrong with the air here? I didn't find it?"

Nini: "She's talking about atmosphere, not air. In Common Language, the two words are based on the same etymology, so there are some similarities."

Wang: "Oh, I misheard."

Connaught: "What's your question?"

Wang pointed to the orc blockade outside: "As far as I can see, the blockade of the city by the orcs has not been completed. The fence and sentry tower should not be completed today, right?"

Connaught: "Yes, orcs are very poorly built."

Wang: "Does that mean that a team of seven can sneak out relatively easily?"

Connaught was shocked: "Are you trying to sneak out?"

Wang: "Yeah, we have no reason to stay in the city and fight with you. And we have got the clues we need from the Royal Institute of Architects. The target is Isonzo, one of the city-states of the river countries. We Get to Isonzo as soon as possible and start searching for this church."

Connaught: "Aren't you only a third-ring spellcasting ability? How do you deal with a sect that randomly sends a seven-ring mage to kill you?"

Wang: "If you can fight against the past, then you will know. Besides, Master Qihuan was killed by me. Huh?"

Wang suddenly slapped his thigh, looking like he was thinking of something important: "I am no longer a mage of the fourth ring, I am the third ring... no, it is the fourth ring! There is one more ring than the third ring! God, I forgot Yes! I prepared the spells this morning and prepared the spells for the third ring according to the habit, but I didn’t prepare for the fourth ring!" (*)

Everyone else was silent.

Xiaobai, who was riding on the king's neck, expressed his opinion—an opinion expressed from a high place: "You are so smart! I am right!"

Elizabeth: "Xiaobai is right."

Nini: "So we don't sneak away tonight?"

Wang: "Of course not. Soldiers are precious, and we will leave tonight!"

Rosalie: "Wait! You don't want your asterisk?"

Wang: "That was my second plan. I changed into a dragon to attack the ballista positions of the orcs, and then took the opportunity to kill them by the asterisk. But it is better to sneak out without disturbing the orcs than to launch an attack."

Rosalie: "Isn't sneaking dangerous?"

Wang: "Sneaking is not necessarily dangerous. After all, whether you will be discovered depends on how well the opponent 'plays'. But changing into a dragon attack must be dangerous."

"I'm afraid the second plan is not very realistic." The Duke of Connaught said, "The current report shows that the orcs have set up ballistas on both sides of the bank, and there are a total of seven ballista positions that have been discovered. In addition, our army has also discovered crossbows. The gun positions are protected by spellcasters with five or even six rings."

Wang: "Shaman?"

Connaught: "No, it looks like a mage."

Wang frowned: "Orc mage?"

"Human necromancer, with zombies."

At this time, the eldest prince spoke: "According to the reliable information we have obtained, there is a powerful nine-ring lich beside the new co-lord of the orc tribe. We are asking for help from the Arcane Federation, and the knights of Lancelot and Typhon in the city The regiment is already restless. For the top paladins of the knight order, the nine-ring lich is their dream prey."

Wang: "We already know this. I mean, in the first half, the orcs had a lich to help them out."

The eldest prince: "Didn't your teacher say that there are several manifestations of the crisis? Among them are the activation of undead creatures and the emergence of a large number of liches."

Wang: "That was the third stage, and the second stage hasn't come yet. Are there any cheap but 'overly' effective healing scrolls and healing potions in the city?"

The eldest prince: "No. In fact, there are no healing scrolls and healing potions for sale in the city. We wanted to buy more for the city defense forces, but we couldn't find a place to buy them. We had to make the mage priests and alchemists in the city work overtime Do more."

Flint stopped trying to climb between the battlements, turned his head and asked, "Why can't you officially get healing scrolls and potions?"

Connaught said in a disgusted tone: "The nobles have bought them all. These days, a large number of nobles who have no confidence in their castles have poured into Minos, and they purchase healing scrolls and potions in large quantities. If the orcs rush in and kill I found a nobleman and found five healing scrolls from him.

"Your Majesty publicly ordered the nobles to donate scrolls to the fighting troops. Guess what? The most noble donated 20 scrolls, saying that he had so much, so His Majesty chopped him down for treason, and in his mansion Two hundred were found.

"In this way, the nobles handed over a total of several thousand scrolls. Everyone knows that they still have them, but His Majesty can't kill them anymore. Under such circumstances, the standing soldiers brought by the nobles are also an important combat force. .”

Rosalie: "Monrovia is so terminally ill. Although Kuusania next door will have civil wars every time a new emperor is elected, at least every family has fought a strong army. It's just that they don't have the same heart."

Elizabeth frowned: "This is prejudice."

Just before the two started arguing, Wang said: "Without cheap scrolls and potions, the appearance of that lich is just accidental, and has nothing to do with the crisis we want to manage."

The team members have become accustomed to the true performance of the mage.The Monrovians looked at each other.

Wang: "We still slip away tonight, I wish you good luck."

The eldest prince: "Our scouts liberated some orc slaves. Because the orcs did not plunder this time, these slaves are old slaves who have been imprisoned by the orcs for many years. They provided an interesting piece of information."

Wang: "What?"

"The lich's name is Erzam Malcolm."
