Chapter 117 Chapter 117 Irrational Emotions

Dagon met three of the Academy's six students Elves, three humans. There were originally three dwarves, but two of them are currently in the chimera's belly, and the third is in a bathtub full of healing potion.

"Do dwarves all grow out of mud? Why is there another one?" A conspicuous young man wearing a bright red cavalry tunic who almost drew a target on his chest said with a smile. "But it doesn't make much sense. Only a charging lance can pierce the skin of Chimera."

"It's stupid to aim at scales and skins." An elf leaning on a giant bow next to him said: "Aim at the throat, or shoot through the eyes, stab the brain, and it only takes one accurate attack to bring down the Chimera."

"But anyway, there is no need for dwarves to get in the way here." Red Target Male said with a smile: "They have short legs and slow rushing. Only when retreating, they have a bit of an advantage because they fall behind."

"Looking at him, they are speechless."

Dagon scratches his beard, too lazy to deal with their own amusement. The six people on the opposite side are all students and have not graduated yet, so they are definitely not "elite". Not to mention whether wearing such bright red clothes on the battlefield is a target, it is said that the most critical part of the operation at this time is stealth approach and lurking, and that clothes are not suitable. And elf archers, what do they do with their bowstrings when they're not fighting? Waste the lifespan of the recurve bow in vain, reducing its power. The most important thing is that if there is deformation, the accuracy of archery will drop rapidly.

If you can cooperate, cooperate. If it doesn't work, do your own thing. A warrior, it is impossible to always think that the people around you are the same elite warrior. Disciplined mercenaries, peasants and soldiers with no battlefield experience, and sick people who are not acclimatized to the environment are all possible situations. Dagon observes these people, estimates how they might affect the outcome of the war—for better or for worse—and then fights based on that.

Hiroai came in from the door, she just sent away the satisfied and contented count. They changed to an Inn, after all, the previous golden horn Inn was messed up by the count. The students gathered here, ready to go through the tactics against the Chimera one last time.

"The array covering Berry Grove Village will disappear tomorrow, and Chimera's stomach should be hungry. I will set up bait in the south, many thanks count for the livestock." Shiloai said with a faint smile : "You have time to get acquainted with each other one day, and prepare to move north. Tomorrow noon, when the bait takes effect, we will set off immediately and rush east to the wild forest."

"To enter the wild forest. Lin?" Dagon asked.

"The dwarves don't like the jungle," said the elf, "why don't take him."

"We don't go into the savage forest, the Chimera didn't choose to nest there, The reason is unknown. Its lair is by the lake, near a forest, but it is just a small hand from the savage forest to Mawang Bay. I have already had the mana white eagle scout, and the creatures there are scared by the smell of chimera run, so it's unlikely to spoil the situation."

"How far is the wood from the nest? Can a heavy crossbow be placed in the middle of the tree?" Dagon asked.

"The closest distance is fifty meters, and I can drop a heavy crossbow."

Fifty meters is not a good number. Hesitating to see the hardness of Chimera's scales and skin, Dagon prefers to be able to shoot the heavy crossbow against Chimera's body, otherwise he is always worried that the power is not enough.

"You can just hide in the woods, don't come out and get in the way." The target man in red didn't know why he was so hostile, and shook his finger at Dagon. "If I don't order, you'd better not shoot, lest we accidentally hurt us."

"Are you sick?" Dagon stroked his beard and said, "Are you here to kill the Chimera, or to embarrass yourself? ?"

The man in red stood up with a smile, slowly began to take off his gloves, and said, "Finally, I thought that all dwarves in the world are cowards. It's best if you can talk back, and I can do it. A duel is proposed to you."

"Sit back!" Shiloh waved his hand, and a strong airflow blew the man back to his seat. "If you cause attrition outside of the Chimera battle, I will deduct your credits first!"

"It's only five credits at most, and it's only ten if you double your anger. I'll pay for him. "The elf holding the giant bow laughed and said to Shiroai: "I think that by clearing out the useless dwarves, the remaining people can better complete the task."

Dagon shook his head, sighed . Is this the style and vibe of Academy? He had given up hope for Academy. Before, I only heard that Jiangu clansman was excluded, the elves were the masterminds, and the human beings were the pioneers, but now I have seen it. Perhaps the elite Academy does have knowledge and can learn something, but is this atmosphere any good for Jiangu clansman?

"Rui Liqi, I'll deduct ten credits from you first." Shiloh snorted and said, "Dingma, if you want to start a duel, you must first pay the fee. My Chimera project is worth twenty Two credits, you give me this first, then you can do whatever you want, you can be the conductor."

"Twenty-two..." The target man in red shook his head: "I But there aren't that many credits."

"Twenty-two credits can get you the command?" The elf holding the giant bow said: "I don't need all the credits this year, I just can afford it. Shiloh Ai, I'll give you thirty-two credits, this time you have to listen to me, I think it's a good deal!"

She beckons with the hand as she spoke, and the other two elves Brought her parchment and ink pen. Dagon glanced at it, and the parchment was pre-printed with exquisite and complex patterns, leaving a few empty spaces.

Siloai folded her arms and looked at the three elves with a sneer, while Rui Liqi picked up the ink pen and began to fill in the blanks. She signed her name, filled in thirty-two credits, and prepared to write the reason for this credit transaction in the remarks column. When she got here, she suddenly smiled, put down the pen, and said, "I won't be fooled! One credit will not be given to you!"

"What a pity, what a great opportunity." Loai, snorted, seems to have known the result. "Since no one is vying for command, then gather in the courtyard outside tomorrow before noon. I will give each of you a bottle of invisibility potion and scent-blocking potion. Dagon, you are in charge of the dwarf's heavy crossbow, and they are all mounted on the car. And two horses."

"Could it be a donkey instead?" Dagon said, "I asked Gerlos, and he said donkeys are dumber, less frightened, and easier to appease with food."

"Yes, I can ask count to send two donkeys. Anyway, you are responsible for the car, crossbow, donkey or horse."

Dagon shook his head: "No need to count, I'll just borrow two from the caravan. I'm not very good at manipulating animals, so I may have to ask for another helper."

"Why is there so much about this dwarf?" Elf Ririch shook his hand vigorously, With a driving gesture, he said: "You can do it yourself, you are useless anyway."

"If you want command, you still owe me twenty-two credits." He started, his index finger was like a letter spit out by a white snake, and pointed at the parchment on the table next to him: "Keep it, I welcome you to sign it and give it to me at any time. Oh, by the way, it needs to be in duplicate, only one sign is not enough. Useful. If you want to pretend, please at least pretend."

"You..." Rui Liqi pursed her lips in time.

Dagon thinks that Chimera is most likely to survive this time, but he really doesn't want that four-headed rare beast to continue to do evil. Obviously, the three elves and the three humans in front of him cannot be comrades-in-arms, and Shiroai seems to have no good way to take them. Dagon even thought that the three Jiangu clansman chose to face the Chimera, is it also related to these six bastards?
"I'm ready." Dagon stood up, nodded to Shiloh, and left the room occupied by the other races. Outside, the air is fresher, the sun is brighter, and life seems more meaningful.

A four-wheeled carriage is parked in the yard, and the carriage boards have been removed, so it is four wheels and a flat plate. Two heavy crossbows were placed on the cart, and the four horses rested lazily over the sink in the stable. Shirouai said that there was originally a car here with a heavy crossbow on it, but it was taken away by three dwarves. Unless the guy in the tub can wake up and take it with him, Dagon can only rely on the car and two crossbows in front of him.

The heavy crossbow was blazing in the sun, and the canvas was thrown aside, with a yellow dog lying on it. Dagon climbed into the car and began to examine the heavy crossbow, and the yellow dog sat up, folded his feet in front of him, and looked at him curiously.

The dwarf heavy crossbow looks quite old. The heat of the sun makes the steel crossbow body a little hot, which will definitely cause some parts to expand and deform. Fortunately, the main mechanism of the heavy crossbow is in a relaxed state, the most important crossbow string is not installed, and the parts of the tension mechanism are empty, otherwise...

"You can't treat weapons like that stupid elf." Dagon lowered his head. Looking for it, I found a box for special accessories in the corner of the car board. The lock above was broken, and the parts inside were flipped, but none of them were lost. Crossbow strings, stiffeners, fixing bolts, ammunition...

No, there are still some less. The standard ammunition should be thirty rounds, and here there are only twenty, which means that each crossbow has only ten shots. Dagon scratched his head, feeling that the number was a bit low.

"It was taken by three other Jiangu clansman." Shiloh walked over, her pink hair seemed to reflect in the sunlight.

"Let me guess, the heavy crossbow on the other car is assembled?"

"Yes. The three of them can't assemble it, so they only took the The car. The keys for these parts are with me, they smashed the lock and took some of the ammo. I've been looking for that car, but no clue at all. I don't even know where they encountered the Chimera attacked.”

“Twenty rounds is a little short,” Dagon said.

"The other car has a crossbow and two sets of accessories like this on it." Shiroai said, "Can this box hold a crossbow?"

"With all the spare parts, you should be able to assemble two sets. But even with five sets of crossbows, I'm not very optimistic about this operation."

"You sound like a normal adult. "Siloai said, "But this operation also requires idiots and scumbags."
