It is different from the people who are preparing to welcome the ‘Harvest Day’ with great expectations.

The soldiers who were on an expedition at this time obviously couldn't catch up with this annual celebration.

"The entire army rests!"

In front of the military formation, Zhang William, who was riding a white horse and wearing silver-blue armor, waved his hand to signal the army to stop advancing and take a rest.

In this battle to encircle and suppress the wood elves, Luo Ji was very surprised to appoint the Elf King Zhang William as the commander-in-chief.

Luo Cheng, Li Ke and Halfen went with the army as Zhang William's lieutenants.

This move surprised many people.

But after thinking about it carefully, it seems natural.

Although Luo Cheng is now a general who can act independently, he is still a cavalry general.

As I said before, this battle will probably be dominated by guerrilla warfare in the forest.

The role of the cavalry is basically to raid the formation on the outside, and at most to encircle and intercept the fleeing wood elves.

Let Luo Cheng serve as the commander-in-chief. Given his military position, it is impossible to enter the main battlefield with complex terrain to conduct command operations.

Therefore, it is not suitable for him to be the commander-in-chief at all.

At the same time, under Luo Ji's command, Li Ke, the leader of the Wolf Clan, is now considered a veteran with sufficient qualifications.

But he is better at conducting individual command operations, and his ability to coordinate the overall situation is slightly inferior.

Not to mention Halfen, he definitely has no qualifications, and his abilities still need to be honed.

After all this, the most suitable candidate is Zhang William as the Elf King, isn't it?

No one can deny that among the generals accompanying the army, Elf King Zhang William is currently the most suitable candidate to lead the army.

While the army was resting, Zhang William, as the commander-in-chief, was naturally not idle.

I saw him sitting cross-legged on the ground.

Then he stood up his sword Breath of Storm in front of him.

Then, he took out a fist-sized wind magic crystal from his arms.

After bringing the wind magic crystal close to the wind magic core on Breath of Storm, a magical scene happened.

I saw that the slightly dim magic core seemed to be alive at this time, and began to show traces of brilliance.

The movement here undoubtedly attracted the attention of many people.

Luo Cheng, Zhou Xian, Halfen and Kalgan immediately gathered around to watch without any concealment.

As for Li Ke, who was a werewolf, he stood a little further away.

Probably because of their racial nature, there is always an inexplicable feeling of dislike between orcs and elves.

Since the formation of the army, Zhang William's elf troops and Li Ke's Swift Wolf warriors have restrained each other, so there have been no quarrels.

But that's all.

They both consciously kept their distance from each other.

To avoid anything unpleasant happening.

However, at this moment, Li Ke's eyes were still looking here with curiosity.

On this point, Luo Cheng and the others are the same.

It's just that they look at it more carelessly.

A drop of cold sweat slowly slipped from his forehead. William Zhang felt a little uncomfortable being watched by a bunch of guys like this.

Finally, I just had to bite the bullet and speak...

"What's the matter with you?"

"Lord Elf King, what are you doing now?"

Zhou Xian stared at the radiant wind magic core, and then asked curiously.

After thinking about this, Zhang William simply explained it to them.

Anyway, during this whole process, he was just idle.

Just think of it as passing time.

"I am now replenishing the magic core on my sword with mana."

While talking, Zhang William talked to everyone about some characteristics of magic weapons and magic cores.

As mentioned before, the Demonic Core is actually the heart of the Demonic Beast, which can be regarded as a half-living body.

After the mana inside it is exhausted, even if you don't care about it, it will absorb elements in the surrounding air that match its own attributes to replenish its mana.

But this natural recovery process is actually very long.

Of course, this recovery speed is also related to the quality of the magic core itself and the richness of the elements in the air.

If you throw it directly into the warehouse where wind magic crystals are stored.

The reply speed can be at least twice as fast, maybe even more.

Of course, the cost of doing this is that the quality of many wind magic crystals will deteriorate after their mana is sucked away.

It can be said to be extremely wasteful.

Now let’s get down to business.

Since the last time he spent almost ten percent of the mana in his magic core in order to get rid of the pursuit of the wood elves.

Until now, a month or two have passed, but the mana stored in the magic core has only been restored to the level of one blast of wind.

Considering the upcoming battle, Zhang William felt that it was necessary to speed up his recovery speed.

After all, you have to give him two blasts of wind, right?

To do this, he needs to use some special means besides natural recovery.

And this special method, to put it bluntly, is to actively instill wind magic power into the magic core.

Find a wind mage or a piece of wind magic crystal, and then infuse the corresponding wind mana directly into the magic core.

That's what he's doing now.

After listening to this explanation, Luo Cheng and others all showed expressions that said they had learned a lot.

In comparison, the expressions on the faces of Halfin and Kalgan standing next to them were full of envy.

It's great to have magic equipment.

If a general has a magic weapon in his hand, his strength can be raised by at least half a level.

It's a pity that they wood elves don't have the craftsmanship of high elves.

Each branch of this elven clan has its own characteristics.

With the infusion of mana, the fist-sized wind magic crystal in Zhang William's hand gradually became dim.

In the end, it completely turned into an inconspicuous gray-white stone.

He casually threw the piece of magic crystal, which had become a piece of waste after all the mana was consumed, on the ground.

William Zhang exhaled a long breath.

He raised the Breath of Storm in his hand and checked the mana accumulation in the magic core.

Finally, he was able to recover the mana of Breath of Storm to cast two blasts of wind before the encirclement and suppression began.

However, he consumed several high-quality wind magic crystals for this purpose, which was really a bit painful.

Magic crystals can be considered rare consumables for now.

After taking a long breath and adjusting their emotions, the army continued to advance towards the wood elves' forest.

Now their location is not far from the Wood Elf Forest.

In order to keep the soldiers under his command in physical condition ready for war.

Zhang William began to signal everyone to slow down and advance slowly.

Then near noon the next day, the army encircling and suppressing the wood elves officially arrived at the outskirts of the wood elves forest!!
