The legendary path of the abandoned half-elf

"You won't be afraid of the cold anymore if you activate your vitality. You can use it this way."

"Forget it, I'd better feel the cold."

Lorenno dispersed the heat transmitted by Pella, breathed in the heat and felt the cold snow on his face, tasting the reality of being alive.

sense.

Seeing Lorenno's delay in speaking, Perla asked, "You came to me to ask about Connie's arrangements?"

"Yes, is there anything you can't say?"

"Not for you. I'm going to put Connie in one of the last two places so that she can grow up faster."

"You, no, aren't the empire afraid that Connie won't be able to complete her mission?"

"Even if Connie loses, the other route may not necessarily lose. Moreover, the empire has the capital to lose, so there will be problems with Connie's own power. It depends on her own handling methods."

Listening to Pella's words, Lorenno nodded slightly. Just as she had guessed, the battle to the end would be bloodshed and struggle. No matter how hard the old man sprinted, he could not gain strength.

The half-elf girl who learned the news from Pella thanked her and left. She felt the snowflakes blowing in the wind with a complicated expression. After returning to the room, she quietly waited for Connie's return.

Not long after, Connie returned to the room with a complicated expression. Lorenno stood up and asked, "How is it? Which route are you in charge of?"

"It's a pincer defense line," Connie spread out the map and pointed at one of the two routes. "This route is the one we are responsible for and need to defeat. The other route is handed over to Earl Phil. It seems to make him work harder to take charge of it. Two fronts.”

"I don't care whether Count Phil can do it or not, it just depends on us," Lorenno pointed at the map and said, "Do you have any ideas?"

Looking at the empty map, Connie shook her head slightly: "You have to conduct on-site surveys to understand the situation. I am not the God of War. I can tell many things on paper."

Five days later, the temperature became cold again. The generals of the imperial army looked at the fortress in front of them, which was like a copper wall and an iron wall, and patted their heads in distress.

This is the No. 2 handover point [Swanstein Castle], which is the main battle route where as long as the attack is successful, you can encircle some frontline countries and cities in the Federation with another army.

The attack did not go well. The Imperial soldiers crushed the Federation in all directions. Unfortunately, the soldiers of Swan Castle huddled in the castle after suffering several losses, without any idea of ​​coming out.

These responsible generals originally wanted to kill them, but there are mountains and water inside Swan Castle, and they are completely self-sufficient. There is no need to worry about food and supply issues.

"Oh, no, we can't get in alone."

"How about contaminating the water with poison."

A soldier suggested, but he was directly glared at by everyone: "There are many druids from the good camp in the army. If you really do this, prepare to resign as a soldier and go back to eat and wait to die."

"I don't know when our general will arrive."

One general sighed. After hearing the sigh, another general whispered: "Speaking of generals, I have some exclusive information. It seems that the person leading us is Her Majesty Connie."

"Which Lady Connie?"

"There is another Her Majesty Connie, the one who is with Her Majesty Lorenno."

"That person from Gray Eagle Principality, can she fight? Don't lead us into a trap. Now that she's here, does that mean His Highness will also come to help?"

"No way. If you really come here, why is Princess Connie our general?"

"Your Highness Connie is a mage and has higher wisdom."

While the generals were discussing endlessly, a soldier ran in in a panic and loudly reported: "Report, our new general is here!"

All the discussions disappeared instantly. The generals looked at each other and moved together, preparing to meet their generals. At least so far, they were not prepared to disobey the command of the headquarters.

……

When the generals arrived at the greeting place, two figures, one beautiful and one mysterious, were also stepping off the carriage. The generals almost immediately distinguished the two figures at the top of the wave.

The mage with the veil must be His Highness Connie, and the one dressed as a ranger with a mask covering his face, but still attracting attention with a strong presence, must be His Highness Lorenno, accompanied by their three assistants.

"General Connie, Your Highness Lorenno."

The generals bowed their heads and saluted, and Connie, who had rushed here, waved to everyone: "No need for polite words. I am not an old noble. Go to the tent to discuss how to lay the first line of defense. Collect the situation of the battle so far and give it to me. "

"Yes!"

Several generals were excited for a while. Some of them were born into noble families, and some were promoted from civilians, but they all had one thing in common. They didn't like to do anything fancy, so it was naturally best for Connie to be simple.

Everyone entered the tent, Connie sat at the head and picked up the information and read it. Lorenno walked outside the tent idly and stared at the snowy scene in front of him and the city wall in the distance.

Chapter 569

Time passed quickly, and a general came out of the tent and said respectfully: "Your Royal Highness, Your Royal Highness calls you over."

Entering the tent, Connie waved to Lorenno: "Arnold, help me see if you can try to sneak into this war fortress."

The half-elf girl looked at the map. The floor plan was being constructed in her mind, but there was a lack of information in many places, resulting in a blank.

"Why not just let the mage attack?" Lorenno asked this question.

"How can there be so many mages in an army? There are a total of 30 mages in the mage group, and the highest average professional level is level 4. This

It was thanks to the two high-level 16th-level mages, the group leader and deputy group leader, to pull them up a bit.

Unfortunately, the ratio of the mage group on the opposite side is almost the same as ours. There are one or two less level 1 mages than us, so the key to conquering the fortress cannot be placed on the mage. The dispel magic after the light rises the ring can make us plan failed. "

"Can't you call someone right away, and from a long distance..."

【do not talk. 】

Lorenno wanted to say a sneak attack and use long-range magic to break the city wall, but Aya interrupted her, causing the half-elf girl to hold back her words.

[Not all mages have sufficient resources like Connie and us. Do you still remember the situation explained by Miss Betty after the legendary battle of Cardinal City?

The legendary spellcasters on the opposite side do not have strong enough expertise and powerful spells to support the power of a legend, and the same goes for the mages in the army. They are probably still running for a scroll of six-ring spells. 】

"what happened?"

Connie was confused when she saw Lorenno's sudden pause. The half-elf shook his head and said, "Nothing. What about the stalkers in the army? Can't they get in?"

"We can't get in. Most of the stalkers in the army are scouts. They specialize in hiding and collecting intelligence. At most, they can only go into the city and set fire to the granary. They are not very good at sneaking into the fortress."

"That means you still have to watch me. Do you want me to open the door?"

"Can you open the door?! That would be best..."

A general who looked naive brightened up when he was in the lead, and then his flesh was ripped off by his colleagues. He immediately shut up when he noticed that the princess's eyes were wrong.

Lorenno withdrew his speechless gaze, thinking about the possibility of pushing the door open. Connie, who knew her well, said: "At least you can't push it open with brute force. This door is stronger than you think, and has been cast by many spells." "

"So why do you want me to sneak in?"

"Still open the door, but not with brute force, but with ingenuity. This door should be based on the mage. Well, it is a very famous design in short. The mechanism is divided into two parts: mechanical and magic."

Connie waved her arms, and the magic threads constructed a gate, a bunch of mechanical parts, and additional magic circles in the air, allowing Lorenno to see it very clearly. She seemed to have encountered this design before, but she had forgotten where exactly.

"The most troublesome thing about opening this city gate is that you first have to go to the left area to move the mechanical handle, and then go to the right area to release the magic circle. Only after doing both can the magic of the door and the built-in door bolt be completely released."

Connie explained the structure of the device to the half-elf girl. This door was indeed a bit troublesome. It was difficult for her to open it alone. During this time, the patrol inside would fail if there was an error in a certain switch.

"Anyway, I'll give it a try."

Lorenno was a little embarrassed. She was a ranger and a berserker, but she was not a real thief. Why was she always asked to do things like a thief?

...It seems that she has already complained, forget it, those who can do more work.

In the dark night, a snowstorm struck again. Lorenno hid in the grass. Due to the blocked life force, no body temperature leaked out of his body. His whole body looked like a corpse.

"The weather is great."

Lorenno whispered that it was good to have such a strong blizzard when sneaking in. As long as the insulation problem was solved, the wind and snow could cover the whole person, and insulation was not a problem at all for her.

Lorenno crawled closer in the snow. Since there were no woods in this area, she could only keep moving past as if hunting. Whenever someone stopped in front of her in her psychic senses, she would stop moving.

Hiding in the snow, the sky is covered with dark clouds, and even if the ground is covered with snow, visibility is extremely low. She has been invisible under the influence of the shadow escape ring.

No wonder she was so cautious. This was the first time they entered Lorenno, someone else's hometown, during a battle between the two armies. Who knew if they would be prepared.

But it turned out that she thought too much, and no one noticed her until she was sneaking outside the city wall.

Lorenno crawled in the snow and let the heavy snow cover his body. He closed his eyes and talked with Connie using the knight's oath.

[Connie Connie, can you hear me? 】

[You can hear it, the situation is normal, there is no dimensional anchor influence. 】

[I'm ready to go in now, please come to meet me at any time. 】

【Um. 】

After communicating with Connie, Lorenno opened his eyes and watched the defenses in some areas of the city with his psychic perception. He mainly stared at the people above the city wall. When they looked away, he stood up from the snow and clung to the smooth surface with his hands. On the city wall, countless small barbs composed of vitality grab the city wall and increase the friction.

After several leaps, Lorenno climbed over the 15-meter city wall and landed on top. He just passed two patrollers and stood in the middle of the left and right sides without attracting any attention.

Jumping directly from the city wall and landing lightly, Lorenno glanced into the castle and said to Connie: "I have come in and will proceed as planned."

……

"Her Royal Highness has successfully entered the Swan Castle. Generals and captains, please attract the enemy's attention."

Connie received the reply from the half-elf girl and immediately explained to the generals below that Lorenno had gone in to help. Naturally, they couldn't just watch the show. They had to lead the army to Swan Castle to put pressure on the federal army.

The large army of men and horses moved into action, and the alarm bell sounded in the Swan Castle

Dazuo had obviously received the news of the empire's attack. The whole fortress suddenly became chaotic. When the city lord came to the heights, he saw a large number of troops gathering outside.

In the wind and snow, the soldiers of the empire remained silent and showed extremely good discipline. Looking at the densely packed and uniform soldiers, the city lord couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and shouted loudly to all his people: "Guard this line of defense for me." , prevent these demons from entering the country and destroying everything you have!"

The city lord turned to the empire again. The imperial soldiers did not take any action. They just stood in the wind and snow and continued to put pressure on the federal soldiers of Swan Castle.

The city lord couldn't help but jump into this trap, not knowing that an important person had already entered the Swan Castle.

Chapter 570

The attention of everyone in the entire Swan Castle was attracted by the sudden attack by imperial soldiers, and many people had trouble sleeping and eating.

Lorenno moved extremely carefully among the crowd and watched everything on the street. When he closed his eyes, his psychic perception was rapidly describing the entire Swan Castle.

Psychic perception can sense the movements of living creatures, and based on the movement trajectories of living creatures, she can construct a new set of maps in her brain.

"Oh, why did the war start again?" A man who looked like a hawker sighed.

"Fire, rice, oil and salt are going to be more expensive again..."...

Not long after, the half-elf girl successfully found the location to lift the mechanical blockade. In order to ensure that the action would be carried out later, she quietly moved in the opposite direction and found the magic blockade mechanism there.

The order of dismantling the two mechanisms was not so strict. Lorenno stood outside the wall of a house that resembled a high tower, watching the soldiers' movements with his senses, and quickly outlined the specific situation of the high tower.

The location to remove the magic protection is at the top of the tower, which means Lorenno needs to run up and turn off the magic associated with the city gate, then come down from the tower, and then go to the other side to open the mechanical device.

How can this be done? It takes at least 10 minutes to sneak from here to the mechanical device. If no one on the magic circle notices that the magic circle is closed within 10 minutes, then they are all spies or blind.

Unfortunately, they are not, so they will definitely be discovered in 10 minutes. Based on the intensity of the patrol, Lorenno only has 5 minutes to act.

The half-elf girl froze in place, thinking about the solution. Aya looked towards the tower and quickly thought of a solution.

"We tried to fly over."

……

Being mentally prepared for a sudden outburst in the Swan Castle, Lorenno quietly sneaked into the tower in front of him, dodged enemies one after another at high speed according to the map he had completed in advance in his mind, kept climbing up, and soon reached the tower. top.

"Atta."

"Hey……"

Every time the patrolling professionals came to the door of the room where important magic circles were stored, they would call out. The caster responsible for guarding the magic circle inside would be unable to respond. This cycle basically every 7 minutes, so Lorenno felt that there was not enough time, unless he killed Gao. All patrollers in the tower.

Arriving at the door, the half-elf girl's limp body easily passed through the ajar door and came to the control room, where a huge magic circle was placed.

[What will happen if I remove the magic on the city gate and destroy the magic circle here? 】

[After the destruction, the closed magic at the city gate will be activated again, and there is really no way to solve it this time. After all, the center of the magic circle has been knocked down by us. 】

Lorenno sighed softly and waited for the patrol to come again, and then she would take action.

"Atta."

"Hey……"

After dealing with the patroller's bored tone, the half-elf girl's eyes flashed as she gripped the sword tightly, knowing that it was time to act on her own.

[Vitality Guidance].

The sudden stop of the heart made the watcher cover his chest and reach out to the ajar door, looking extremely helpless. Lorenno seized the opportunity and raised Mingpan's sword to kill the caster, looking at the complicated spell. Zhen closed his eyes.

Aya took over the body. The elf girl scanned the magic circle with her golden pupils and quickly understood the structure. She made some changes according to Connie's method and waved her palms in the air.
