The Witcher: Son of the Planes

A distance of 300 kilometers is enough in five days according to the itinerary, but in reality, it is far from being so simple to calculate and divide. There are many practical factors to consider.

Colin has participated in many battles. He was not surprised that the march took seven days. This was already very fast, and there was basically no delay.

When he arrived 5 miles outside Steel Mane City, Colin had already seen the Orc Alliance. The terrain from the vast wasteland to Steel Mane City was very flat, without too many ups and downs. The weather today was also very clear, and there were no factors that affected visibility.

Both sides of the upcoming battle, whether they were high-ranking leaders or low-level soldiers who had to fight, felt the tense atmosphere before the war.

This was a battle of all forces on both sides, and it was a battle that determined the future right of speech in the Agri plane.

The winner controls everything, and the loser becomes a prisoner.

The Orc Empire had no way out. Originally, they were the attacking party, but after the Elf Kingdom introduced the alien race of the Listan Alliance, the situation changed greatly. They had changed from the attacking party to the defending party. This was a battle for their country, and they could not afford to retreat.

The elves had to fight, because the Orc Empire was mainly invading them this time.

As for the three major human empires, the Os Empire has always been the main war party, because they have been invaded more by the Orc Empire over the years and suffered the greatest losses. The other two countries were half-coerced. I won’t talk about it before, but this time we can see something from their attitude before the war.

As for the Listan Alliance, it came purely for profit. In order to maximize the profit, a large number of reinforcements were sent from the Listan headquarters again. They were no longer satisfied with seeking the insignificant trade income, and they had greater demands.

The interests of the parties on the battlefield were different, but no matter which party it was, they knew that the next battle could not be ignored, and they must do their best to win the victory for themselves.

The decisive battle finally began, and there was nothing to say about the two sides. It must end with the failure of one side.

The War Ancient Tree is huge. Under the cover of the ancient tree, the elves on the tree fired deadly arrows. I dare not say that every arrow can take away an orc, but every arrow can hit an orc.

The attack of the War Ancient Tree is also very unique. On the one hand, it can hurt the enemy by hammering the ground to generate earthquake waves. On the other hand, the large number of branches can also deal with a single powerful enemy. Although the attack frequency of the ancient tree is low, the number of orcs taken away each time is not small.

The archery of the elves is also counted among the planes. While casting spells, Colin focused on observing the specialties of various races on the field. In addition to those ordinary elf warriors, there are also some elf wizards who are proficient in spells, who are also casting deadly spells, taking away the lives of some orcs from time to time.

What Colin envied the most was the small group of druids. The creatures after transformation were varied, but most of them were powerful monsters, especially the giant dragon after the Great Elder's transformation. Both its size and strength far exceeded Charles's before evolution. There were as many as three level 3 orcs fighting with it, which was enough to show the effect of this transformation.

The spell of the Elf Queen Margaret was even more breathtaking. It looked like a wood spell when it was released, but it was more like a life spell when it was cast on the orcs. Although Colin had not asked, judging from his eyes, it should be a life-absorbing spell. The orcs who were hit by the spell quickly lost consciousness and fell down.

The kings of the orcs have all gone. The third-level berserkers are fighting against the third-level knights. They are both powerful professionals on the physical side. Their duels can better interpret the violent aesthetics of the high-level professionals. Colin is so excited that he wants to replace them. Unfortunately, because the knight's path was cut off before, he never considered the knight's path again. As for the future, he can only talk about it later.

The few giants mixed in the orc coalition are also a big attraction for Colin. The giants are far superior to the transformed knights in terms of height and strength. It often takes two or three knights to deal with a giant.

Fortunately, the IQ of giants is generally low. They prefer to go straight on the battlefield. Unlike the knights, they still have some brains, know how to cooperate, and know how to find the weaknesses of the giants to attack.

Colin has not seen many attacks by warlocks, but the warlocks invited by Listan this time, in addition to some spells, like to transform into mammoths to attack. Whether it is war trampling or mammoth impact, it can cause huge damage to the orcs on the opposite side.

Colin and his team suffered more casualties from the human army and slave creatures. The strength of the human army was uneven, and a single ordinary warrior was generally not as good as a single orc warrior. They relied more on battle formations and collective strength.

As for the slave creatures, Listan didn't care much. As long as he won, he could buy more slave creatures with the proceeds. Where did the slave creatures come from? Naturally, they came from the planes enslaved by the wizard world. Perhaps in the near future, the Agri plane could also export slave creatures.

Before the decisive battle this time, there was no truce, nor was there the possibility of a night strike. Instead, both sides used the intervals between the wars to self-adjust the intensity of the attack. The middle and high-level soldiers also had selective rest and replacement. The soldiers at the bottom could only retreat if they died in battle or were seriously injured.

This decisive battle has lasted for half a month. Even Colin, who has a strong mental power among the first-level professionals, can't hold on. Although he has been controlling the number of mana potions he takes, the battlefield changes rapidly. Without too much rest, do you dare not drink it? If you don't drink it, you may be killed by the opponent next time because of running out of mana.

Although the orcs are fighting desperately, the balance of the war continues to tilt towards Colin and his team. The orcs finally can't resist it. The front line retreats again and again, and has retreated to the wall of Steel Mane City.

The royal family of the orcs also suffered several casualties in succession. One of the royal family of the orcs, relying on being Bolt's grandson, once suggested peace talks to Bolt with a plausible argument, but was mercilessly killed on the spot by Bolt.

Bolt's determination to resist was not shaken, but the shadow of failure had begun to loom over the hearts of all the orcs. They also knew that they could not resist for much longer, but seeing that even the emperor's grandson was killed on the spot, no one dared to say anything about surrender and peace, and could only bite the bullet and fight hard.

Colin didn't know how many times he had returned to the field. Although he still had mana potions on him, he really didn't want to drink them anymore. It wasn't that the mana potions were not tasty, but he felt that there were signs of backlash. Fortunately, this time he could also feel that victory was coming, and the Orc Empire could not be stopped.
