The epic story of green monsters

Chapter 373 The Remnant
  Allen was heartbroken, so when he went south, whenever he encountered a few sporadic devils, demons, or even scouts of the human army, he would pursue them mercilessly until he killed them one by one. .

These guys were also in bad luck, and just in time when Allen wanted to vent all kinds of negative emotions, even if he tried his best to escape, it would not work.

Think about it, after all, Allen is not an emotionless animal. Although his relationship with Kaiya, a human woman, can only be friends and partners at most, but with his cold and distant character, the friends he can make are naturally the same. Give sincerely.

From the first interaction at the city guard's mansion, to the temporary alliance, and then to Kaiya helping him open a pasta stall and establishing the reliability of the village's economic source... Allen has actually always been aware of these things. Keeping it in mind, I also thought about finding an opportunity to repay the other party.

It wasn't until Kaiya showed her true face that Allen suddenly realized that all this was just an act by the other party, just to get closer to him. This feeling of betrayal really made Allen feel a little sad and a little frustrated. However, after venting several times in succession, he gradually calmed down.

When the incident first happened, Allen left Mansha City without saying goodbye, because after experiencing the incident at that time, everyone felt that the other person's cemetery was impure, even Alba, who had a good relationship with him. Seems very cold. But when he calmed down again and carefully thought about everything that happened, he felt how pitiful Kaiya, a human woman, was.

No one can be trusted by Kaiya, and she dare not really get close to others with her heart. Then how lonely her heart must be! !
  At least, when I communicated and got close to the other person, I gave my sincerity and received feedback at the same time. Even if the feedback itself was false, it still brought me inner fulfillment. The knowledge he learned from Kaiya and the memories he made on adventures with them were also the wealth in Allen's heart, but he couldn't deny them all just because of what the other party did in the future.

After some introspection, Allen no longer felt so uncomfortable in his heart. It just made his already indifferent heart perhaps more rational when dealing with other guys who deliberately approached him in the future, and his eyes would be full of suspicion.

Originally, Allen was supposed to go south together with several other legendary powerhouses, because Mansha City had prepared a batch of supplies and troops, and they could just take this opportunity to transport them to the grassland frontline under the escort of several legends. , one party is convenient for two.

However, Allen suddenly went south alone, without any drag, so that he arrived at the grassland frontline more than two months faster than Shaka and his party.

If it were other middle and lower-level members, such undisciplined behavior would definitely be reprimanded and punished by the senior management. However, Allen is now a legend. As a strong man, he naturally has the privileges of the strong. Ai Lun's early move south not only caused no trouble, but also made Nordin, Ahmed and other senior officials on the front line feel relieved.

After all, on the frontline battlefield, when the Wilderness Alliance faced the attack of the human army, their biggest shortcoming was that they did not have as many strong men as the opponent. Therefore, they suffered a lot when it came to one-on-one duels with legendaries and above, and the command of legendary commanders in the army. Unfortunately, now they are being pressed step by step by the opponent's army and have to retreat to the rear.

Legendary powerhouses, in the confrontation between the two armies, can not only resist the attacks of the other party's powerhouses and avoid losses in the military formation, but they can also sit in the elite legions and use their own strength as a sharp edge to lead the surrounding legions to tear apart the opponent. positions to create better opportunities for the army.

For example, His Majesty Silvanus sits at the rear in the posture of an ancient war tree. A natural domain covers almost half of the battlefield. While blessing the warriors of his camp, it weakens the demon army. This has a huge effect, even more than intercepting a legend in person. The strong will play a greater role.

Most of the powerful humans are of this type, such as the Paladins of the God of War. Most of them will develop a halo of piety to enhance the protective power of the warriors in the phalanx. When you reach the legendary level or above as a paladin, you can expand the field of war, or improve the attack of the warriors, or replenish the physical strength of the warriors, and so on.

In this regard, the strong men of the Wilderness Alliance have a natural disadvantage, because they have been fighting for survival from the moment they were born, so it is basically impossible to increase the combat effectiveness of the army. Allen also focuses on improving his own strength.

In the past, the wilderness could also use enough legendary powerhouses to put pressure on the enemy's positions in the sky, restrict or force the opponent's powerhouses to find another battlefield with their own powerhouses, and let the legions of both sides fight each other. In this way, with the help of the wilderness warriors The gap in overall strength means that they have a certain upper hand in the fight with humans, at least they do not fall behind.

But now, due to the disparity in the number of strong men between each other, the strong men in the human legion only need to divide some of the strong men to hold back the strong men in the wilderness, and the rest can lead the human legion and give a powerful blow to the wilderness legion, thereby affecting to the direction of the entire war situation.

No matter how powerful you are as an individual, you will never be able to control the outcome of a battle involving hundreds of thousands of troops, unless you are personally visited by a god.

Some people may ask, since the number of strong human beings far exceeds that of the wilderness, then why do they bother to lead the attack of a military formation instead of simply using the excellent individual strength of the strong to rush into the military formation of wilderness warriors and fight wantonly? !
  Legends are not invincible. Those at the top of the high-level peaks can delay legendary powerhouses for a while as long as they sacrifice their lives and use their trump cards. Therefore, if they really fall into the sea of ​​people, legends may also be defeated by mid-to-high-level warrior professions. To the submerged.

At the same time, human physical fitness is considered poor among the countless races in Mansha. Although they can make up for some of the individual differences through hard work, overall their individual strength is still much lower even if they reach the legendary level. A place inferior to other races.

For example, in terms of strength, humans are lagging behind ogres, bugbears, hobgoblins, and orcs; in terms of agility talent, they are not as good as elves, gnolls and other races... Therefore, among the strong, In individual battles, strong human beings generally suffer relatively at a disadvantage, either relying on level suppression or relying on excellent magic equipment and scrolls to make up the difference.

Moreover, in the battle on the battlefield, various situations change rapidly. Although it is not impossible to use individual strength to bring back the military formation, the enemy is not an idiot. Everyone will want to guard against the other party. So as long as a few strong people are hidden in the In the army, it is much easier to sneak attack and ambush the opponent's strong men than to fight individually.

Therefore, unless it is necessary or truly dominates the battlefield, generally speaking, the battle between legendary strongmen is more likely to open an independent battlefield, which will be easier and simpler.

However, human beings always like to delve into different fighting methods to play the role of their strong ones.

Cultivating those with strong field abilities specifically for war, although they suffer more when fighting individually, can benefit thousands of middle- and low-level warriors in an army formation and guide the situation on the battlefield bit by bit. These are those who are individually strong. What the strong cannot do. With the support of the auxiliary military formation, thousands of middle and low-level warriors can also play a role in protecting the strong in the field, so that even if the enemy's legendary strong wants to break through and defeat an army with strong players in the field with their individual strength, It will also become very painful, and even be killed by the opponent.

This is an important reason why the forces of human civilization can reach its peak step by step in the Heron Continent and firmly suppress the Orc Empire in the East Hammer.

When Allen arrived, he received a warm welcome from Nordin. Even the commander of the line, General Ahmed, was very happy.

"I didn't expect that after just a few years of seeing each other, Patriarch Allen is already in the same position as us!!"

Ahmad and Allen were not close, but they had interacted with each other quite a lot, especially when they were in the Hultan Grassland. When Nordin came with supplies and tokens from the parliament, he named Allen to participate. In other words, even without the recommendation of Fisher, the leader of the Snowmi tribe, Allen would not have been able to escape that mission south.

As for why Allen was named to go south to carry out such a difficult and risky task, there was only one reason, and that was to eliminate the weak and retain the strong. As a person who has a better chance of being promoted to legend than other talents, Allen has been receiving attention from Nordin and Oscar since they entered their field of vision, and they have invested resources and opportunities in Allen.

Big risks also contain big opportunities. For Nordin, as long as talents like Allen can grow up as soon as possible and replenish the number of wilderness strongmen, then it is worth sending Allen to the death line to perform dangerous missions. .

If Allen died during the mission, then Nordin would have nothing to regret. There are many talents in the wilderness, and if one less talented person is missing, there will be another talented person.

"Hello, General Ahmad."

Allen nodded slightly and greeted Ahmed politely, who was dressed in snow-white. At the same time, he put on a friendly smile and turned his eyes to Nordin.

A few strong men like Ahmad and Nordin followed Silvanus Crown to the south and almost died in the Battle of the Gods in Mingxi City. Later, after luckily escaping the divine power annihilation storm, Ahmad and the others integrated the remaining tribesmen, led them directly north, and settled down by the Samai Lake on the east line of the grassland.

While rectifying the stragglers in the wilderness who had fled north one after another, they were stationed on the spot to chase down the defeated demonic troops. Before the support team from the rear arrived, Ahmed and the others received news that the human coalition forces were heading north.

At the same time, the demon army lurking in the dark finally showed its true potential and attacked the Ahmad troops stationed by Lake Samai for blood.

When Allen was in Mansha City, the city guard Declan introduced the frontline situation to several legends and assigned tasks. He asked Allen their opinions on whether they should go to the Eastern Front or the Western Front. In the end, Allen chose to the Eastern Front.

The size of the legions on the eastern front is relatively weak. Most of them are soldiers of various ethnic groups who fled back after the Long March to Mingxi City in the south. Therefore, this army has fewer organized legions and its combat effectiveness is naturally not very high.

As for the legions on the western front, because they were originally the main force of the human-horse army on the front line of defense against humans, and there were soldiers of various races who were unable to go south to support them after the emergence of the demon guerrilla army, so their scale and combat effectiveness were stronger. Of course, since most of the human armies came from the Principality of Rose, the Wilderness Legion on the Western Front became the main force in intercepting the invasion of human armies.

The reason why Allen chose the Eastern Front is actually very simple, that is, among the defeated troops on the Eastern Front, there was also a group of soldiers from the Green Field Tribe. Although Allen was already prepared in his mind that they might die in battle, as the leader and tribesman, He still hoped to go to the Eastern Front positions in person and look for their traces. Even if only one person survived, that would be good.

As for the other legends, they basically chose the battlefield on the Western Front. After all, more powerful people were needed there and the war was more intense.

"Alan, you came just in time. I just found traces of a legendary bone demon and need help!!"

Although Nordin was very happy with Allen's arrival, he hoped that the support force could go to the Western Front. However, now that Allen is here, we must make full use of this support. No matter that Allen has just arrived, Nordin asked Allen to help.

In fact, the eastern front is far from what Mansha City knows. The war situation is relatively calm. Instead, there have always been small-scale but extremely frequent fighting.

In addition to sending the main force north to engage in fierce battles with the main force of the Wilderness Legion on the Begana Plain on the western front, the human coalition forces still have an army of more than 200,000 in the occupied areas of the Kingdom of Spring, and will disperse the Devil Legion among them. The troops were defeated and driven out.

As far as humans are concerned, they do not need to kill all these abyssal enemies. They only need to drive them away from the Land of Spring, and they have achieved their goal. Doing so can not only reduce the number of human soldiers killed in battle, but also cause a lot of trouble to their opponents: no matter whether these defeated troops are fleeing to the east or fleeing to the north, the forces in these directions are the enemies of mankind.

Therefore, the devil's retreat in the south has never been interrupted since Ahmad and the others were stationed here. From time to time, large and small groups of troops would flee here, causing fights for the garrison in the wilderness.

At the same time, the demon army that has been attacking the Orc Empire on the eastern front has never stopped guarding the wilderness, so there are always small demon armies peeking towards the Samai front line. In addition, in the wilderness, the demon guerrilla legions that lurked in the wilderness and caused all kinds of troubles to the wilderness support frontline teams, as the wilderness reacted, they quickly killed them, and then began to gather and go south, to follow. The demon army from the east is converging.

The followers of the evil god once again launched an attack at a critical moment, and summoned a large number of demonic armies, which had a profound impact on the supply of the wilderness army on the southern front. At a certain period of time, it even completely blocked the supply of the front line.

If it hadn't been for the fact that the various tribes in the wilderness had never been wary of the demon army over the years, I'm afraid a new wave of evil god chaos would have rekindled in the wilderness.

The demon guerrilla army summoned by the evil god believers this time had a total number of less than 5 at its peak. In the end, a cavalry force of 3 was quickly formed from the golden three bloodlines of the centaurs and horses, and Mansha City had cavalry. With the joint cooperation of the supporting army, the main force of the devil was quickly found. Before the opponent could grow again, its main force was defeated in one battle, and the remaining stragglers fled along the eastern front of the wilderness.

If the demons in the wilderness want to go south and join the army of the Orc Empire, they must pass through Lake Samai. Therefore, Ahmad and his army of less than 100,000 must not only beware of the demons in the south, but also deal with them. The demons from the north and south are under considerable pressure from fighting on two fronts.

The most important thing is that except for Ahmad, Nordin, and Kagiso from the Kadiron orc tribe, there are no other legendary strong men on the Eastern Front. The few remaining legendary strongmen who survived have been dispatched to the Western Front. Under the attack of the human army, the most lacking legendary strongmen there are.

"Ok!"

Allen didn't refuse. If he was already a legendary devil, he probably only needed to hold the opponent back for convenience, and he still had some confidence in this.

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go!!"

As soon as Nordin saw Allen agree, he jumped out immediately and yelled at the same time: "Kagiso, stop being lazy and get up quickly!!"

Allen glanced at Ahmad and asked for his opinion. After all, Ahmad was the coach of the Eastern Front Wilderness Army, and Nordin could only be regarded as the representative of the Temple of Nature.

"You go ahead. This Skull Demon has been discovered for two days. It has been delayed just because Captain Nordin and Kagiso couldn't deal with it."

Ahmed smiled slightly and explained to Allen helplessly.

"As the coach, I can't leave this position, so I can only let the Bone Demon form a demon army in the east."

"If you had come two days later, I'm afraid the Bone Demon's team would have expanded to ten thousand people, enough to pose a threat to our position."

Allen didn't know much about the strategy of military formations. He didn't understand why Ahmad and the others didn't send out the army in advance to kill the defeated troops, but allowed the other side to grow a little bit. However, this did not prevent Allen from agreeing. After listening to Ahmad's explanation, he went out of the felt tent to track down Nordin.

This battle, even without Allen's appearance, is already imminent. Nordin and Kagiso will launch an attack on the Bone Demon Bridge within the next two days. It's just that with the arrival of Allen, Nordin's losses will be smaller, and the possibility of killing the Bone Demon will be higher.

On the one hand, Bridge was retained because the opponent was a legend and his strength was really good. It was extremely difficult to kill him completely. On the other hand, Ahmad and Nordin hoped to use this bone to defeat him. Use the influence of demons to attract as many demons as possible to defeat the opponent, making it easier for the wilderness warriors to catch them all in one fell swoop. It is actually easier for sporadic devil warriors to break through the eastern front positions. After all, the opponent's individual strength is extremely strong at the same level. Except for warriors from large tribes, the basic combat skills of warriors from small and medium tribes are still a bit poor. Intercepting such skirmishers is more difficult than a large-scale army fight, and more soldiers are sacrificed.

"Hey, a new face is here!!"

Allen was no stranger to Kagiso. Back then, he had witnessed the opponent's battle with the lizard legend Monkey, but the opponent did not pay attention to the bugbear who had just entered the high level at that time.

At this time, Kagiso appeared from nowhere, carrying two sharp double-edged axes on his back. He looked at Allen critically, his eyes shining with light, and he was full of provocation when facing Allen.

Most of the strong people in the wilderness are familiar with each other. After all, there are only a few hundred people above legend level, and they will interact with each other several times in a long life.

"Kagiso, this is Alan Witt from the Green Field Tribe, a newcomer who has just advanced to Legend."

Nordin had a loud voice and casually helped Allen and the others introduce each other.

"Alan, this is Kagiso from the Kadirong tribe. Those two axes are quite powerful when danced."

"Newcomer?? I'm afraid his skills aren't that good, right?"

When he heard about Allen's tribe, there was a hint of contempt in Kagiso's eyes. In a world where strength is valued, a person like Allen who does not have the backing of a powerful tribe and has just advanced. Legends are often not too strong.

"Would it be useless to take him with me?"

"Don't worry, I won't hold you back!!"

Allen noticed the other party's contempt and responded in a deep voice.

"Hehehe, I hope so!"

"Let's go, one more person will bring more strength!!"

Nordin didn't explain anything. If Allen wanted to win respect, he had to show his strength.

"Knights assemble!!!"

When Nordin called Kagiso, the military camp beside Samai Lake began to become noisy. When he loudly issued the order again, a temporary cavalry force of 2 was put together by the believers of the gods in the Temple of Nature. The group has slowly begun to gather.

Knights in armor of various colors merged into a colorful cavalry. These were the last surviving members of the temple knights who followed Silvanus to the south. They had the emblems of their respective gods on their right chests. Although the Natural Temple suffered a heavy blow due to the sleeping under the crown of Silvanus, the eyes of these knights of the Temple Knights were still full of fighting spirit and anger at this time.

Decades of devout faith will not collapse due to a momentary blow. Instead, the gods they believe in will self-destruct and fall because they implement their own determined ideas, making their hearts a little more tragic and a little more hateful. fire, and a firm heart to follow.

"Attack!!!"

Allen moved slowly with the knights, leaving the dense military tent and heading towards the hills to the east.

Beside him, Captain Nordin was riding on a gray-white earth blue sheep. The whole body of the blue sheep was covered with a layer of light granite, as if it had grown naturally on the blue sheep's body. It is said that this is a magical beast that can cast several kinds of earth magic that Captain Nordin encountered during a certain journey and then surrendered.

Kagiso, who was walking side by side with Nordin, was riding a very ordinary war horse, just like Allen, it was a maroon war horse that was taken randomly from the military tent. Anyway, neither Allen nor Kagiso are used to fighting on horseback. On the battlefield, they still like to fight hand-to-hand. Whether they have a good mount or not has little impact.

"You have just arrived at the front line and you were brought out by me. Do you think I am going too far?"

Nordin turned his head and asked Allen with relaxed eyes.

"It doesn't matter to me. This journey has no impact on me. It's actually no problem to fight one day early and one day late."

To say that it is as easy as Allen said, it must be a lie. At any rate, this is the first time that Allen has fought with colleagues of the same level, and he knows his shortcomings, but he is a little afraid that he will suffer because of him. problems, which have a negative impact on the battle. However, the contempt in Kagiso's eyes among the three of them made Allen feel very unhappy, so he did not want to lose morale in front of the other party.

"However, I have just advanced to Legend, and my strength is still much lower than the two of you. I'm afraid I won't be able to help you much if we really have to fight later!"

Not losing morale is just to give himself a reputation, but Allen's pragmatic attitude still exposes the reality directly, so as to avoid making mistakes on the battlefield and making everyone look ugly.

"Hehehe, if we really want to kill that skull demon, I won't need you anymore."

After listening to Allen's words, Kagiso gave the bugbear a high look. It seemed that the other party was somewhat self-aware, otherwise, if he really wanted to show off, he would probably cause trouble for them. There are countless people who really thought that after advancing to Legend, they could walk sideways. In the end, many of them suffered big losses in the first battle of Legend.

"When the time comes, you just need to lead the knights to charge and kill that demon army. The skull demon still has to be dealt with by Captain Nordin and me."

"Of course, if the battle on your side ends quickly, you can also come and help us. It is best for the three of us to work together to kill this skull demon directly."

Nordin nodded, indicating that he agreed with Kagiso, and he was sorting out his next task with Allen.

After hearing the arrangement, Allen nodded slightly, and then looked at the group of knights around him.

Not only was this the first time that Allen had teamed up with his colleagues to deal with a strong man of the same level, it was also the first time that he had personally commanded a cavalry army, so he felt a little uneasy again. In the several times he led the Green Field tribe to fight, the number of Allen's warriors was only a few hundred. Where like today, any army is measured in units of thousands, so how could he not be a little unsure of himself.

"Don't worry, the warriors of this group of knights are all intermediate-level or above. There will be no problem in killing a demon army of no more than 6000 people!"

With sharp eyes, Nordin noticed Allen's worry and took the initiative to comfort him.

"呲~~"

Kagiso glanced at Allen, uttered a faint syllable in his mouth, turned his head and looked into the distance.

"However, I have never commanded an army of more than a thousand men."

Ignoring Kagiso's ridicule, Allen's eyes were sincere and calm, and he expressed his worries.

"It's okay. The Knights have a commander. All you need to do is to be the spearhead of the Knights and disrupt the formation of the Devil Legion."

This is the real reason why Nordin brought Allen. His goal is very clear, not only to destroy the remnants of this devil, but also to keep the bone demon Bridge.

"it is good!"

The remnants of the Devil Legion under the leadership of Bridge are actually in a dilemma. To the east are the Devil Legion, which has a deep hatred against them and have been fighting for tens of thousands of years. To the north is the territory of the powerful tribes of the wilderness, the Chakri Troll Tribe and the Kadiron Tribe, and The remnants of the demons who hope to cross the Samai Lake front.

Just like sandwich biscuits, Bridge took this remnant of devils and hid in the mountainous area called Dia Hills, integrating the devil skirmishers who were heading north one after another. Compared with devils, their strongest point is their strict hierarchy. Whenever two skirmishers meet, as long as the strongest one decides the outcome and the right to command, then the remaining team members will not They can quickly integrate into a well-trained army.

As long as Bridge is given a little more time, his army will be stronger, and his chance of survival in the material world will be higher.

"Sir, a cavalry appeared in the west, and the army of the wilderness is coming!!"

The ice demon, who was only one step away from entering the legend, waved the small wings behind him that were disproportionate to his body, landed in the camps with ravines, and reported the urgent information he had discovered to Bridge.

"How many are there?"

Bridge was not surprised. The larger his team, the higher the possibility of his whereabouts being exposed. Now that the wilderness army was dispatched two days later than he expected, it was already their luck.

"About 2000 people."

"Well……"

The number of cavalry brought by Nordin happened to be stuck on Bridge's psychological defense line. If the number were one thousand more, Bridge would probably lose some determination to fight to the death and lead the remaining troops with the wilderness troops. Fighting guerrillas in the Dia Hills, which is hundreds of miles wide, will only cause a lot of trouble.

"Have you found the figure of the legendary strongman?"

"Yes, the dwarf knight leader is in the team, but other than that, I haven't seen any other legends."

Nordin's identity was really easy to identify. Dressed in an iron bucket, he was not prepared to hide his traces from the beginning. Instead, he walked at the front after entering the hills, which was very conspicuous. As for Allen and Kagiso, they hid among the knights. Their horses were not conspicuous anyway, and they blended in with the knights without any inconspicuousness.

"Gather the team, let's fight them!!"

Knowing that the army in the wilderness was likely to be deceitful, Bridge did not hesitate at all. Their remnants of soldiers were hiding in the hills and just lingering, with no supplies and no way out. The devil soldiers under his command were panic-stricken and were in need. A victory to stabilize the morale of the army.

After some simple but careful calculation, Bridge made up his mind to teach the wilderness army coming to his door a painful lesson.

"Yes!!!"
