114, the most daring adventure
114, the boldest adventure
Shortly after the vanguard of An-La Legion took a break and retreated rapidly, not only did the main force of the Nannar Legion pursue, but the army that had been closed and blocked on the defense line also advanced. They carefully swept across the original battlefield without leaving any remaining enemies.
When the main force of the Nannar Legion and the vanguard of the An-La Legion fled in the desert, the near the dunes where Amon's troops were resting were almost plowed by the Hati soldiers. It was confirmed that all the enemies had escaped, the Hati people re-designed the defense line and were still sending scouts nearby to stay vigilant at all times.
Amon and Medanzo disappeared during the rest of the night. They did not leave the troops at that time, but no one knew where the two men went. When they retreated at dawn, only George and John were left to lead the army. Just in the afternoon, in the desert edge dozens of miles away from that place, in a secluded and deserted place, two small sandbags suddenly raised on the flat ground between large sand dunes.
Sand emerged from the ground, and quicksand at the top kept falling to the surroundings, and then two people appeared in the desert. The scene was very strange, very similar to the scene when Amon saw the Scorpion King appear, but there was a lot of movement and almost no magic fluctuations were transmitted. The people who came out from under the sand were Amon and Medanzo.
Since they spent most of the day lurking under the sand dunes for dozens of miles, avoiding all the Hati soldiers' searches. Both of them were wearing strange scale armor, dark but not reflective, and they didn't even have a grain of sand on their bodies. Medanzo looked around and laughed whispered: "This scorpion shell armor is really amazing. It can not only defend against water and fire, but also sneak under the sand. Link's craftsmanship is really good, but unfortunately he only made two."
They were wearing a small piece of strange shell made of armor on the back of the mutant giant scorpion. When Amon was in the cave, he helped Link make the first one. After Amon left, Link made the second one independently. Medanzo escorted Aesop to the swamp island to help Link. Link gave this scorpion shell to Medanzo to defend himself. It was indeed handy today.
Amon also patted the armor on his body and said, "It's such a good thing, but the materials are not easy to make. I have collected so many shells. After making these two armors, there is not enough left to make another one. Although the clothes are good, it depends on who wears them. If it is replaced by someone else, it must be a warrior who has mastered the intermediate magic technique to play its greatest role."
Medanzo said with a smile: "I'm not a big samurai yet, but this armor is just right. The practice habits that God Amon usually teaches me can only be useful at this time. He sneaked under the desert for most of the day when wearing this body, but he was not very tired. The use of mana is so weak and lasting."
Amon glanced at him and said, "Although you are not a great samurai, ordinary great samurai may not be your opponent. You must be cautious in doing things, but you must also be confident and not be timid and timid."
Medanzo said with a hint of grace: "Of course! If not, would I dare follow God Amon this time? What should we do now? Let's go to find King Hati's camp?"
Amon looked at the sky and then looked ahead, shook his head and said, "There is the grassland ahead, and the mountains and jungles are not far away. We can't sneak under the sand. In this broad daylight, if someone flew over the sky to investigate, he might find both of us."
Medanzo: "With stealth magic, our habits should not be afraid of using magic magic at any time to rush forward."
Amon shook his head again and said, "This habit is very good in normal times. It is a way to exercise mana, but what we have to do now is very dangerous. We must ensure that we have enough energy and physical strength. We have been in the desert for most of the day and can no longer consume it unnecessary. Moreover, it is impossible to use all the mana to continue rushing through the road. A master magician can still find it when he is close. Put on the snake scale armor and we will walk the nearest road to lurk in the swamp."
Not only did they carry scorpion shell armor, but they also had snake scale armor made of scales of the two-headed monster snake. This scale armor is made of magical techniques and can sneak in water or swamps to prevent mud from touching the body. It also requires users to master the intermediate magical technique. Medanzo said with a bitter face: "Are you going to drill mud after just drilling out of the sand?"
Amon also smiled bitterly and said, "Don't just think about the power and show off. You should bear the sins you should bear. Now is not the time to act. You have to wait for George and John to attract the main forces of the Nannar Legion. They are probably chasing and fighting fiercely in the desert. I hope the camp can defend it."
The two of them quietly walked out of the desert and entered the grassland. The scorpion shell armor had a faint reflection in the sun, but then it turned into the same color as the environment. Their figures became blurred, and it was not easy to see clearly near, and it was even harder to find them in the distance. Instead, they went straight to the Hati King Camp, but went around a big circle eastward, walked the closest journey to the edge of a swamp, changed into snake scale armor, and quietly disappeared into the soft grass and mud.
...
King Lucille of Hathi was in a bad mood today. He followed the advice of King Juguli and several legion commanders and left his own flag in the Enriel Legion, but he retreated from the front line to the rear. It was rare to leave the king's capital and go to the frontier to relax. He rode and hunted and hunted every day, which was exactly what he wanted.
Even if this kind of life is long, it is inevitable that he will be bored. I heard that the front will win a great victory, but Gelie and others are reluctant to launch a general attack to capture Pharaoh Eju alive, which makes His Majesty the King, who is waiting to establish this extraordinary achievement, feel a little anxious.
I received an urgent report this morning that the An-La Legion of Eju sent a force to break through the defense line and rushed towards the heart of Syria. Although it was far away, there would be many obstacles from the army on the way. The guards around me still advised the king to be careful and to retreat to the city-state for safety reasons.
Lucill was unhappy and said calmly: "This time I am an imperial commander in person. Is there an enemy activity far away? Is it that I will escape when I hear the news? Is the Nannar Legion a waste and cannot stop this small enemy? You are all waste and can't protect me?"
Lucill was a little stuck. Not only did he not evacuate, but he didn't even change his camp. The army under his command was of course not a waste. After a short time, he received a report of the war. The invading enemy had been repelled. They suffered heavy damage and fled in panic. The commander of the Nannar Legion had led the army to cover it and drove the enemy's remaining soldiers back to the camp and launched an attack.
On the second day, the official battle report came. The Nannar Legion defeated the enemy's elite attack and surrounded the enemy's battalion to launch a fierce attack. The An-La Legion shrank and did not dare to take a step forward in the camp. General Aurebein led his main force to annihilate nearly 2,000 enemies, and then he won a great victory. The An-La Legion had no power to fight anymore and could only defend the camp to survive.
The battle report of Aurebein is very interesting. It seems that he won a great victory. He first chased the An-La Legion all the way, and then beat the opponent hard until he was tired of beating it. The number of annihilated two thousand enemies is exaggerated. The total number of official combat troops of the An-La Legion is only more than 5,000. Even if all the logistics teams, servants, and civilians in the rear are counted, they are only 20,000.
But the war report must be written like this, and Aurebain also knows what His Majesty the King likes to hear.
Lucille was in a better mood when he saw this battle report. Although he knew that Aurebain must have exaggerated words, it at least showed that the defense line was safe and his place was safe. He even felt complacent for yesterday's calm and composed decision. On this day, His Majesty the King took the guard to the jungle area on the edge of the swamp to hunt, and came back in the evening to hold a bonfire party in the camp.
The king's camp was naturally elegant. He lived in the most beautiful big tent of animal skins, and surrounded a courtyard with curtains in front of the big tent. In this yard, he lit the fire and barbecue, drank and had fun. He was happy, and His Majesty Lucill also rewarded his followers.
...
At night that day, two people appeared silently from the mud water on the edge of the swamp closest to the King's Camp. They were Amon and Medanzo wearing dark brown snake scales. The mud water slid from them without any contamination. If you were to find two people who were most familiar with the terrain of this area on the Tianshu Continent, they would have spent a long time passing through many obstacles and doing the most detailed investigation.
The two spent a day and a half, circled around the swamp, avoiding all possible reconnaissance and sneaked into the closest position to the King's Camp. Especially during the last journey, they were very careful in snooping in the swamp, and even the scorpion-tailed dragon that was inhabited was not alarmed.
After getting ashore, he entered the jungle, took off his snake scale armor and replaced it with scorpion armor. Of course, because the scorpion armor had better defense effect, he was about to face an unpredictable fierce battle tonight. Then they checked the equipment they needed. Amon held the iron branch staff, which was his most common weapon. He took out a wind-controlling shuttle and several scrolls and handed it to Medanzo.
Amon whispered: "Of course I asked you to come with me to take a risk, but it's not a needless death. If the plan is successful and there is no hope of you, you can unfold the scroll to cover yourself, control the shuttle and escape quickly. You can't escape to the south front line, and go deep into the swamp to the north to go to Link."
Medanzo did not hold a staff, but carried a strange long sword. The hilt of this sword was very long, almost half of the sword body, and it looked like a short staff connected to a sword. The end of the hilt was also inlaid with divine stones, but it was fused into the material. This was a weapon Amon obtained in the mysterious mountain belly. It was originally a precious sword of a great warrior, which was very suitable for auxiliary magical arts. Given to Medanzo, it was naturally a good use.
They also wore a short sword on each waist, which was the sharp blade made by Amon with the fangs of the strange snake. Medanzo took the shuttle and the scroll and said, "Of course I will be careful, but I will never escape unless I have to! Amon God, what you have to do is more dangerous, but I firmly believe that you can capture King Hati alive."
