Chapter 680 War preparation
This set of plans for Joan Erinikas can be said to have been in Henry’s brain countless times. Every detail, every ally’s choice, and even the targets that may be attracted by the enemy have been carefully calculated, although It cannot be said to be perfect, but it is also difficult to find too obvious loopholes.
After all, both parties are legendary wizards with superior intelligence, and it is absolutely impossible to make any low-level mistakes, so in the end, they can only use their real strength to head-on, and whoever can survive can get everything.
Drizzt knew that this aspect was not his strong point. After hearing this, he nodded and stopped asking. After half an hour, he took the other four partners and headed south, and Bruno the dwarf did not clamor to find that handle. The lost warhammer may have been wound up in everyone’s mind, and there is no time to care about those insignificant things.
After watching the Mithril Five to leave, Jasila lowered her voice and said to Henry: “You have made a wise choice. Drizzt and his partners have solved many difficult crises. With their help, the plan was successful. I’m more sure about it.”
“No, this is just the beginning. The number of allies I can invite is far beyond your imagination. Let’s go, Ascatela still has one of Joan Erinikas’s minions to deal with.” Henry said meaningfully. He smiled, and then led the team to start again.
On the way, he quietly came to Robert’s side and whispered: “Now give you a task, immediately return to Angome Island, let the Barbarian Guard and the Mages go to the sea outside Ascatla to stand by. Let Debra, your sister Amy, Vaughn, and Borken follow along with you, and bring all the golems and Ares. We are going to fight a real magical war this time.”
“Understood! But you really don’t need me to draw some good hands from the guild?” Robert was obviously worried about the lack of manpower. As far as he knows. The number of these two monster armies exceeds several thousand. Even withdrawing troops from within the territory still seemed a little weak.
Henry understood the subtext and shook his head slightly: “It is not necessary. The main role of the guild is to infiltrate and transmit information. As for the battle, let more professional people come. Oh, by the way, send Alan back to the lord by the way. In the mansion, the poetry of the province is terrified.”
Hearing that he was about to send himself back, the boy immediately stood up and asked excitedly: “Father. Can I really not stay? A magical war like this might be difficult to see in the future. I want to feel it myself. ”
“Sorry, son, not this time. The enemy is so powerful that I can’t distract you from taking care of you. Go back and comfort your mother, grandmother, younger sister, and aunt. I promise you will be allowed to go out after this war is over. Traveling.” Henry touched his son’s head after finishing speaking, a smile of relief appeared on his face.
If there was one thing that surprised him the most about this underground trip, it was Allen’s rapid growth. This boy has already shown terrifying magic talent and learning ability at this moment. I believe that in the next few years, he will definitely be able to easily cross the tenth level and become an awesome mage.
Maybe wait until the story of Neverwinter Nights starts. You can try to get him involved, which is a kind of exercise. At the same time, it can also confuse the enemy. After all, the Neverwinter Nights plague event and the exploration of the floating city occurred almost at the same time, so arrangements must be made. Only in this way can we ensure that we will never miss any aspect.
After experiencing the brutal torture in the dark elf city, Alan has obviously matured a lot. Knowing that you can’t help yourself, he nodded helplessly: “I know, I will go home and live for a few days, waiting for your triumphant return. .”
“Remember not to mention anything about the kidnapping to your mother. I don’t want to hear her crying when I go home. If you behave to my satisfaction, then I will return an unexpected gift at that time.” said Henry He winked at the leader of the thieves under him.
Robert took a deep breath, his body hormones swelled and changed, and the golden dragon scales instantly covered his skin, turning into a majestic golden dragon in the blink of an eye. He stretched out his paws and put the boy on his back, then flapped his wings vigorously, and slowly flew high into the sky towards Angkor Island.
Alan, who was riding on the dragon’s back for the first time, was a little excited. His pale skin showed a faint blush, and he waved his hand vigorously and shouted: “Don’t worry, father, I know how to deal with my mother, and I promise she won’t know how to deal with my mother. Anything that happens underground.”
It didn’t take long for the dragon with a faint golden light all over its body to disappear into the distance. According to Robert’s current flying speed, it is estimated that he will be able to reach Angkor Island in a few hours, and if he is faster, he can even catch up with lunch time. As for the safety issue, Henry didn’t worry at all, because there were no creatures in the sea that could threaten a divine golden dragon.
“Did you send your son home?” Imoen asked curiously.
“Yes, he doesn’t have enough ability to participate in this game, and we also need some reinforcements, don’t we?” Henry blinked his eyes lightly, and then returned to the front of the team again.
Hearing the words “Reinforcement”, Apodale’s eyes brightened and he hurriedly asked: “You have mobilized the army again, right? It’s like assaulting Sarevok at Baldur’s Gate!”
Henry smiled and shook his head: “No, it’s completely different. Unlike Sarevok, Joan Erinikas has no way to deal with targets from the air. As a legendary mage, he can easily use magic tricks. The threat of getting into the air, so the airship can only be used as a means of transportation, and cannot be used as a weapon into the battlefield. This war must be head-on in the early stage, and legendary magic cannot be released in the wizard city, so the ground troops and the dragon are the only ones. The real workhorse.”
“Can’t we just rush in and kill Joan Irenicus directly? Such a large-scale magic war will cause huge damage, and countless lives will die as a result.” Solaufen’s tone was full of pain and Tangled. He had only seen the huge destructive power of war with his own eyes not long ago, and he knew exactly what kind of destructive power it contained.
“Sorry, I’m afraid it won’t work. Although Joan Erinikas’s style of acting seems crazy, in fact every step is carefully considered. It won’t leave us with such an opportunity. There is no need to think about it now. Too much. Let’s go back to Ascatela for a break. I still have a lot of preparatory work to complete.” Henry closed his mouth and led the team forward without a word.
Along the only road leading to the north, everyone cautiously bypassed the mighty army of monsters, followed by crossing the Shardtooth Mountains, crossing the Eismere River, passing through Pusu and Kremur, and finally turned to the west and went straight. The capital of gold coins-Ascatla.
Although they are almost traveling day and night. Except for stopping to rest for a while when I was extremely tired, I spent most of the remaining time on the road, but it still took three full days. After passing the city gate, Imoen immediately yawned and complained: “Ah…I’m so exhausted, I really want to take a good bath, and then sleep beautifully. Of course, I have to add more. Great food last meal.”
“Yes, it would be more perfect if you have a few more pots of good wine.” As he said, Apodale licked his lips.
Everyone hasn’t eaten any decent meals in the past few days, only hard meat jerky and bread, in order to prevent accidents. Henry banned even drinking. It can be said that each of them is now a bit over-fatigued and malnourished. Although the physique of professionals is stronger than ordinary people, there are limits.
“Haha! What we have now are gold coins. If you want, you can even buy the entire tavern for a swig. I can’t wait to enjoy it now, especially the special services of the Bronze Crown Hotel are always so unforgettable.” Gen vigorously patted the leather pocket with money on his back and said.
Although most of the remuneration paid by Yinlong is still lying in Henry’s dimensional bag, a lot of them are still distributed, because each person’s weight-bearing capacity is different, ranging from a few thousand to ten or twenty thousand. The huge leather pocket of this dwarf was filled with gold coins weighing several tens of kilograms. It was no problem to buy a tavern.
But at this time, Henry obviously couldn’t let anyone out of his sight, so he interrupted Korgan’s plan without hesitation: “Don’t even think about it. Today, everyone must follow me back to the Eilatan House. As for entertainment, I will talk about it tomorrow. Now is a critical period, and I don’t want any surprises.”
“Sorry to interrupt you, I… I’m afraid I must leave the team for a few hours now.” Jasila suddenly stood up and said vaguely. Her eyes were always fixed on a masked man in leather armor at the end of the street, who looked likely to be a member of the Harpers League.
Henry knew very well that espionage organizations like the Harp League had a very strict internal system. Once they lost contact, they had to be cross-examined, so he just nodded gently: “No problem, go back quickly, I think they should be Tell you the location of the Elatan House. Also, if anyone wants to see me, refuse it all.”
“You don’t seem to worry at all that I will tell everything?” Jasila asked very puzzled.
“Why should I worry? I didn’t intend to hide anything. Go ahead, your friend seems to be a little impatient. Finally, I will give you a piece of advice. The factions within the Harp League are very complicated. It is best if not necessary. Don’t get involved easily, otherwise it will cause endless trouble.” Shuo Wanheng glanced at the spies hiding in the corner with his cold eyes, and led others toward the administrative district without looking back.
Jasila stood there for a long time, never trying to understand the meaning of the sentence just now.
caveat? It doesn’t sound like because there is no threat in the words.
Hint?
Divorce?
Just when she was lost in confusion, a masked man in leather armor suddenly appeared behind her, lowered her voice and urged: “Don’t stand stupid, follow up, many people are waiting for you to tell about the time you disappeared. What happened.”
“Of course, this is my responsibility, and also an obligation. Lead the way, I hope you won’t be too surprised after hearing it.” After speaking, Jasila put on a hood, followed closely behind, and disappeared after a few turns. In the rush of people.
