The legendary path of the abandoned half-elf

The hunter in the camp said tremblingly, while the scouts had been unable to make a sound for a long time, and their jaws had been removed. Lorenno looked at it for a few moments before returning to Connie's magic tower, closing his eyes and taking a nap to stay in top condition. status.However, not long after, the sound of fighting made her sit up from the bed.

Opening the window, an arrow was shot at the half-elf girl from outside the camp. Lorenno grabbed it and threw it back. He looked around and saw that some scouts were harassing the rest of the soldiers in the camp. Scouts from the empire had already gone to deal with it.

Lorenno was just about to go back to rest when a new idea suddenly came to his mind. He said something to Connie who was thinking about something, turned around and walked out of the magic tower to collect some life force, hoping that it would be enough after the collection was completed.

……

Soon, Loren

Nuo collected the vitality of the enemy scouts around him, dead or alive, and came to the makeshift observation deck in the camp to gaze at Shanhu City in the distance. He felt that it was not enough to wave a ball of vitality liquid equal to his height.

"Forget it, let's try it first."

The spirit was injected into the vitality, and the scarlet liquid quickly condensed and aggregated under the pressure, slowly shrinking into a bright crystal, with cracks constantly emerging on the surface, and then restored to its original state under the power of the spirit.

After making this crystal, Lorenno felt that a large part of her mental power had been lost. She had condensed the liquid life that was as high as human's to the current level. In fact, it was still liquid inside and had not turned into a solid form.

Maintaining the current situation, she raised her palm and aimed at the distant city, urging her mental power to gather behind the life force crystal. She wanted to try to launch this thing like a cannonball, and then let it explode in the opposite military camp. .

This move was not for anything else, just to expand the long-range means and test whether the blood of Majinus, which was far away from her, had lethality.

Looking up at an angle, Lorenno raised his thumb with his left hand, and held the life force crystal in his hand with his right hand like a slingshot rope. After pouring his mental power into it, he released it directly, and the crystal flew out at an extremely high speed.

……

The guards of Shanhu City are not like the guards of Swan Castle. They all treat the patrol matter with a serious expression. They have eyes and ears in all directions. If any suspicious person approaches the city, they will shoot them immediately.

In order to prevent the imperial army from coming in from outside, even the road on the other side of the mountain is temporarily impassable, and a curfew policy is implemented at night. It is almost impossible for low-level hidden people to enter the city. This is only the entire city, let alone military camps, etc. land.

"What is that, an alchemical cannonball?!"

A patrolling guard noticed the bloody lines drawn in the sky and shouted loudly. The crystal shot by Lorenno was too fast. It crossed the sky and directly entered the boundaries of Shanhu City. Under Aya's precise planning, it fell directly into the military camp. .

The next moment, a huge explosion sounded. The life force crystal lacked far more continuous vitality. Finally, it could not suppress the forcibly compressed scarlet blood inside, and exploded violently!

Blood splashed to the surrounding soldiers, and a burning sensation was produced from the area where it was splashed. Although the damage was not high, it caused great commotion.

"It seems that after my life force leaves me and I have no mental power, I am still very aggressive. I have to be careful not to leave any blood in the future."

Taking Connie's ultra-distance telescope, he noticed the commotion in the city. Lorenno knew that it was caused by his own blood. The experiment was successful. Connie took the telescope and stared at Shanhu City, thinking about whether it could be a long-distance attack. After all, The army has mechanical anti-aircraft guns, although not many.

However, she gave up the idea immediately after a barrier appeared over the city. Once the protective arrow barrier was opened, it would be difficult to throw projectile items from such a long distance into the city. Throwing them now would be a complete waste.

Time passes day by day, and the surrounding environment has been detected. Shanhu City can be said to be impregnable. Apart from a frontal breakthrough, there is no way to enter and do small actions. It can be self-sufficient for a short period of time, and it is only one door away from Swan Castle.

"Your Highness Connie, let us attack with force. Sometimes fighting is inevitable."

Connie wanted to find the best way to reduce the loss of troops, but she did not find any flaws in the enemy. The generals were not dissatisfied, but they knew that in wars, someone always has to die, whether it is their own people or others. The person opposite.

Connie looked at the generals and finally closed her eyes and nodded: "Please."

Following the commander-in-chief's order, the entire army moved quickly. Connie, who had just joined the war, said nothing. She used invisibility to stand silently and watched the generals mobilize their troops. She occasionally interjected a few words during the assembly, and more The best thing is to listen.

The army was quickly organized, and the soldiers rushed into the mountain forest one by one according to the arrangement, and ran straight to Shanhu City on the opposite mountain. Lorenno and Aisha were also among them, and Connie left Vita and Shaluo to help handle the affairs.

On the other side, Shanhu City also saw that the imperial army was attacking in large numbers. A close aide reported to Connie's cousin Peg: "General Peg, the enemy is approaching and seems to be ready to attack us."

"Really?" Connie's cousin took a sip of strong wine and stood up. "Open the city gate and go out to fight."

"Yes, I will give the order right now, but why don't we shrink inside Shanhu City, so that they will never try to break through our defense line?"

The cronies followed Peg step by step and were a little confused. Why must they go out to fight when defense can save fewer lives?

"But we not only want to defend, but also think about counterattacking the empire," Peg laughed heartily. "Just hiding will completely lose the sharpness of the army. This war has not put our Gray Eagle Principality in danger anyway. So you can lose or you can be defeated, but if an army doesn't even have the energy to go out to fight, then it has no future."

"If it is defending our own country, of course we must be extremely careful, but if it is someone else's, then we will naturally have to fight the empire fiercely."

"I understand."

……

Looking at the opened city gate, the expressions of the imperial generals became more serious. Groups of warriors inlaid with Gray Eagle medals poured out of the city. The distance between the two armies continued to shorten, and a confrontation was about to take place.

fire.

"For the Empire!" "For Greyhawk!"

The next moment, the armies of both sides collided in the woods. A hand-to-hand battle without any conspiracy took place at this moment. Countless blood was scattered in the forest, and the number of corpses on the ground increased rapidly. Lorenno calmly watched the battlefield, hiding in the woods. Look for opportunities to take away a few.

Chapter 574

Ranger Lorenno walking on the battlefield did not see the shadow of other high-level people, and there were only a small number of intermediate-level people. The large forces did not take action immediately. It seemed that they were in the trial stage and were not ready to start a life-and-death battle immediately.

Lorenno learned from Connie that her cousin was a madman who loved war and would definitely not evacuate immediately when the low-level soldiers fell into decline, at least to let the mid-level soldiers collide for a while.

But these are none of Lorenno's business. The girl is only responsible for finding ways to kill more enemies and minimize the losses of the army. She is not someone who has the ability to lead others, she just needs to do her own thing well.

Do you want to join the battlefield with a high profile immediately?

Looking at Elsa who was carefully hunting low-level professionals and having a great time, Lorenno called her over: "Elsa Elsa, go ask Advent if you want me to come out and fight in a high-profile manner."

"it is good."

Elsa advanced towards her position, and soon brought news that Her Royal Highness only needed to ensure her own safety. As soon as Lorenno came out, it was estimated that the middle-level and high-level people would fight together. Connie's legendary performance Uncle might go to war to deal with Lorenno.

A very convincing explanation. Lorenno gave up the idea of ​​helping and hid in the forest, pretending to be an ordinary ranger. Of course, she was also collecting the vitality that seeped into the soil to ensure that the enemy could not see her. Having already stepped onto the battlefield, he deliberately left some vitality behind to ensure the viability of the corpse.

In her perception, she quickly found Peg Thiel, who was said to be a legendary warrior. He was watching the battlefield on the city wall, observing the two sides that were now evenly matched. Peg turned around and asked: "That princess?" Has His Highness been on the battlefield?"

The messenger who delivered the news from the battlefield said: "Not yet, the blood and corpses show no signs of disappearing."

"Don't relax. If anything happens, tell me immediately and I will deal with that Highness."

Withdrawing his gaze, Lorenno adjusted his posture to hide deeper, hoping that he would not cause the legend to enter.

……

Picking up the corpse happily, Lorenno grew steadily. When he was approaching an enemy warrior and was about to strangle him, the half-elf girl suddenly noticed that a scout rushed towards her at an undue speed.

It turns out that these "inconspicuous" mid-level players are already on the scene.

Only then did Lorenno realize that the mid-level ones were not on the field, but that there were no warriors. Both sides had secretly sent many stealth professionals to appear on the forest battlefield. After all, the trees here were dense and crowded, and no one could tell there was anything there. There are no low-key mid-level professionals.

A warrior can tell his strength from aspects such as how long he stands and how hard he strikes. A hidden person can't even see and can say anything. If two hidden people collide, they will probably remain silent, or the stronger one will instantly kill the weaker one.

Pulling out the blood with his backhand, it collided with the mid-level scout's dagger. Only then did Lorenno notice the shadow wrapped around him and realized that it might be a shadow dancer.

【Guide vitality】!

He squeezed hard with his left hand, and Shadow Dancer's body suddenly went limp. Lorenno took the opportunity to insert blood into his abdomen and avoid his vital organs. Upon contact, he immediately used his life force to make him temporarily comatose due to poor blood circulation. , and then took out the smoke from his gloves and slapped it on the shadow dancer's face.

He is more or less a mid-level person, and he should know the situation in the city very well, and he can be taken back to the barracks for interrogation.

Dragging the shadow dancer, the half-elf girl looked back at the bloody battlefield and sighed slightly. She didn't know what she was sighing about. She was probably lamenting the perishability of life.

"Come on, let me catch a mid-level shadow dancer and see if I can dig out some information."

"Thank you for your help, Your Highness. Someone, drag him down!"

After returning to the camp with the prisoners, Lorenno left the man with a general and left again. Just as he was about to return to the battlefield, he was stopped by Connie: "Arnaud, can you find a way to sneak into the city when they retreat?"

"I can try. Is there anything you want me to do?"

"A lot. Investigate the distribution of their troops and the conditions in the camp, as well as the food and water sources..."

Connie told her a lot of things, and she remembered them all one by one. Lorenno frowned after repeating them: "It may take me a day or two to complete this task. It's not too troublesome, but it's too complicated. .”

"No problem. Anyway, we can't attack Shanhu City in ten days and a half."

According to the speculations of these veterans, this war will last about a year and a half. Lorenno and Connie should leave after completing the encirclement, or stay on the plain battlefield for a while longer.

……

Returning to the battlefield, the battle continued. The forest turned into a huge meat grinding ground, mixing everyone together. Lorenno also saw the forest on the way here.

Some creatures or groups of creatures are watching here from a distance, apparently wanting to bring something back to eat.

I don’t know if they will curse when I take it back and find a lot of rotten meat.

Lorenno thought with malice, and then continued to assassinate some warriors who looked very powerful.

The battle lasted until five hours later. The personnel had been replaced one after another. Neither side let the soldiers fight for more than an hour. This was somewhat unsustainable for the low-level soldiers. They tacitly retreated and let the new soldiers fight. soldiers come on stage.

Lorenno originally thought that something like using tactics to win would happen, but unfortunately this is a forest, and there is no room on either side to use tactics. After all, there are no powerful mages to help, and it is not time to use precious spellcasters. .

The sky is getting dark, and the battle between the two sides has not yet produced results. It is not easy to draw a conclusion simply by comparing military strength. Once again, by coincidence, in order to prevent the monsters watching the battle from sneaking up on the army at night, the two sides simultaneously blew the horn to retreat. .

If you didn't understand the situation in this scene, it would really feel like being polite...

Seeing them starting to retreat, Lorenno sighed and took advantage of this opportunity to follow them. Bai Xue could not reflect much light because of the dark sky. Lorenno's passive invisibility had been activated and he quietly hid among the many soldiers and moved forward.

After a long time, Lorenno saw the walls and gates of Shanhu City. After confirming that there were no people dressed as spellcasters, he mixed with the army and continued to advance. When he was close to the torch, he wiped the blue crystal ring and used the invisibility spell.

Approaching the city gate, the half-elf girl suddenly felt a palpitation in her heart. She looked up into the city and found a spellcaster using True Seeing to scan. She immediately hid behind a tall warrior to avoid sight. After some avoidance, Loren Nuo successfully entered Shanhu City.

Chapter 575 Want to sneak attack again?

Lurking in Shanhu City, Lorenno stared in the direction of the military camp, stared for a moment and decided to walk around the city first.

After half an hour of observation, she found that the residents in her city did not dare to go out easily. The roads were full of soldiers patrolling. It seemed that they had entered the curfew policy. She heard the curses and complaints about the Gray Eagle army coming from her perception. Lorenno kept shifting, listening to see if there was any important enough information.

"Tmd, the Principality of Gray Eagle is so shameless. We brought so much food here and they actually bought it at the lowest price in the market, buying and selling by force. Damn these guys."

A group of businessmen were dissatisfied with what the Principality of Gray Eagle had done. It was said that they were speculating and wanted to make a war fortune, but in the end they were forced by the Principality of Gray Eagle to lower their prices to the lowest possible price.

An alternative means of appeasement? Aren't they afraid that no businessmen will come over in the future?

Oh, they are indeed not afraid. This is not their city anyway, and most of the people here are not the subjects of the Gray Eagle Principality.

"Stop talking. We will go back and explain to the Chamber of Commerce after we leave tomorrow. Let all businessmen in the country pay attention and stop going to Shanhu City for business. Let's see how long they can be self-sufficient. Then they will quietly tell the civilians that they will pay high prices. Collect the grain so they don’t sell it to the army.”

"How dare those mud-legged people fight against the army? You think too much."

"No, no, no, we can secretly bribe the guarding officer, let him turn a blind eye and let us out, and then put some disguise on the food and bring some contraband, so that he thinks we are bringing contraband instead of food. go out……"

The merchants were plotting to give the Principality of Gray Eagle a good look. Lorenno was not optimistic about their actions. After listening for a while, he passed the news to Connie that the merchants were preparing to launch an army. He then listened carefully to the conversations of the residents, and the result was that they were also interested in it. The army was dissatisfied.

"It was obviously our food, but they took it all away and said they would distribute it according to need..."

"Goddess of the Earth, the food I worked so hard to grow has been taken away by them, and they only give us so much food every day."

Listening to the residents' conversations, Lorenno felt that distribution according to needs during wartime would be a good idea if it could be truly fair and just. Unfortunately, the combined distribution of residents' food and the chamber's food seemed to be too little. The people cannot be satisfied.

Either the people are all starving to death, or...

Regardless of whether it was useful or not, he quietly told Connie that the residents could not eat enough. Lorenno looked up at the barracks, stepped on the ground with his feet, and felt the reassuring vitality as he quietly moved towards the barracks.

……

Arriving at the edge of the military camp of the Principality of Gray Eagle, Lorenno looked at the many sentries and made sure that he could not pass. He closed his eyes and called to Connie, asking her to give her a little help. Soon, there was the sound of uniform footsteps in the military camp, and a team The team of men and horses ran from the military camp to the city gate.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

In order to prevent monsters from attacking, the two sides had just ceased fighting, and Connie started fighting again to give Lorenno a chance to sneak into the military camp. The half-elf girl stared at the reduced number of troops in the military camp with her psychic perception, and quietly sneaked in to see if she could find anything. Got some important information.

Feeling the pressure in the center of the military camp, she gave up the idea of ​​exploring the legendary camp and quietly sneaked into the military camps of some generals to search, and finally found something.

She walked into a tent similar to that of the commander. The first thing she saw was a firmly locked metal safe. It was embedded in the ground and could not be taken in by dimensional gloves. The counter-magic on the surface of the safe also allowed some spells similar to lockpicking. invalid.

Regarding this, Aya also

She had a way, so she took out the seeds given by Shaluo and stuck them in the gap of the safe door. Plant growth and influence on plants were activated at the same time. Small plants immediately grew out, with roots and vines growing in along the gaps.

Using her plant senses, she saw some information, the most important of which made Lorenno look solemn.

"Well, okay, I understand, okay, I will be careful, you come back first."

Connie rubbed her brows as she listened to Lorenno's report, and asked the troops who went to harass her to withdraw carefully. After they returned, they immediately held a meeting. At the meeting, Connie told many generals about the intelligence Lorenno had found:

"Her Royal Highness found information in the enemy camp. I am afraid that a small elite army has bypassed Swan Castle and is preparing to raid from our rear. The Principality of Gray Eagle will cooperate with that army to deal with us. Judging from the time, it is not far away from us. , or just lurking around us.”

"I'm going to clean up that army." A general stood up and said.

"No, let..."

Before Connie could name the designated person, Lorenno walked in from outside the tent. When Her Royal Highness the Princess saw her, she said: "Arnold, thank you for your hard work."

"Nothing, but what about that army? Judging from the intelligence, it should be composed of some students from the Federal College."

"You and Aisha go and solve it. If you find it difficult, you can bring Vita with you."

"Kill them all or bring them back?"
