Volume 6 In the World Chapter 668 Dwarves (Part 1)
"And we can't attract the attention of Malagard City. After all, it is Azazel's stronghold in the sixth hell. Even now, the King of Fallen Angels leads his army to the seventh hell, but that
There should still be a large number of legions stationed in the city. These army soldiers are not something we can resist, so we still have to continue marching secretly during this period. We will move in two days."

"Another stealth march."
Redbeard muttered dissatisfiedly, marching in secret means not making loud noises, lighting fires and eating cooked food, hiding during the day, and rushing at night.
All in all, marching in secret is not a comfortable thing.
Eloise ignored Redbeard's muttering. He stared at the map as carefully as if he were looking at his lover's face.
On the map are intertwined cities, with thin lines like spider webs representing roads, and various squares representing stretches of buildings.
An army of 60,000 people is not a small number. If lined up in a line, this army can stretch to the end of the horizon. But now, this army of 60,000 people cannot even cover an area as big as a sesame seed on this map.
Can't even occupy it.
Seeing such a map, Elos felt sincerely afraid, which was the fear of unknown dangers.
The two strongest troops of ten thousand men in the legion are composed of pure horned demons. If these horned demons are arranged in a dense square formation on the plain and start charging, they will be invincible.
Any enemy will be shattered by such an impact. The Horned Demon will use chain swords to tear all enemies in front of them into pieces. Even the strongest Hell Demon Legion can only choose to retreat under such a terrifying charge.
But this is not a plain. At the feet of Elos is the sixth level of hell, a place where even dirt is rare.
Roads paved with hard and cold rocks cover the earth, towering houses and buildings block the view, and abandoned cities and unfinished exposed houses make up this world.
The abandoned city stretches as far as the eye can see, with winding streets and maze-like alleys everywhere.
Almost all the battles that take place in the sixth level of hell are street battles, and there is no space or road for you to form a square charge here.
Moreover, Eloise did not feel the slightest sense of security in a place like this. There might be prying eyes in the shadows of the distant windows, and there seemed to be ghosts floating through the cold alleys.
In such a place, traditional combat methods are no longer effective. The chance of a frontal confrontation between large armies is greatly reduced, while small groups' street fighting and scout stations will become even more fierce.
So Iloth needed a special force to test his new ideas, and he left this matter to Themis.
Nowadays, Themis is the sharpest sword around Iloth. It would be too much of a waste for Iloth to keep such a sharp sword beside him.
After a while, Elos raised his head from the map, and he saw Faith standing in the corner of the camp.
Elos frowned and asked, "Soldier, tell me your name. Who are you?"
Fes hurriedly knelt down and saluted and said: "General Elos, I am Fes. The captain Themis asked me to come here to see you."
"Oh," Eloise nodded, "Get up, you have to wait."
At this point, Eloise turned to Redbeard and said, "And this matter also has something to do with you. Redbeard, you should also stay and listen."
After a while, Themis led eight people into Elos's tent.
Red Beard looked at the people Themis had brought in with confusion. There were gray dwarves wearing full armor, a black-robed mage wearing black robes, and a succubus.
Red Beard asked doubtfully: "Who are these people?"
"These people are all selected from your warrior camp. Although they have only been observed for a short time, I am sure that these are experienced masters. I have read the reports. They have performed well in recent battles.
It’s a great performance.”
Iloth said:
"So I want to establish a special ten-man team in your warrior camp. This team will be led by my Themis and will only be responsible to me. They will perform some special tasks on the battlefield and also
We will experiment with some simple formations. Do you agree?"
Redbeard was a little unhappy, and his flame beard turned black.
Can he disagree with this matter?
Things have been done, but now we are asking whether this should be done in this way?
Is there anything like this?
Redbeard shrugged his shoulders. Although he was dissatisfied with Elos's actions, he didn't say much.
It's just a team of ten people, just ten people. This is not a big deal. He doesn't want to have a dispute with his superiors over this kind of thing.
"It's up to you," Redbeard said, "but let your ten-man team not get in the way on the battlefield, otherwise there will be no good results."
After saying that, Red Beard left like this.
"Okay, everyone, stand over and let me take a good look at you."
Eloise looked at Faith carefully and silently without saying a word. Faced with such gaze and silence, Faith felt an indescribable pressure.
After looking at it for a while, Elos turned his attention to the next person.
Elos looked at the ten people, including Themis, one by one.
"You are all good," Elos said without any emotion: "You survived the previous battle, and I believe you can still survive even in a more brutal battle.
But good luck will not always be with you. You should know better than me what kind of place the Warrior Camp is, and you are not the best yet. It only takes one mistake, and you will sacrifice your lives heroically.
But now Themis,"
Elos pointed to the fallen angel standing aside and said:
"She gave you a chance, a better choice than heroic sacrifice, giving you a second choice besides heroic sacrifice, which is to live and prove your worth.
Of course, only those who have proven their worth are qualified to live. For more specific matters, please ask your commander Themis. From now on, you only need to obey Themis and my orders.
Already.
You can leave, Themis, you stay."
After only Elos and Themis were left in the barracks, Elos said to the fallen angel with some displeasure:
"I asked you to find nine stronger people, but why did you find so many people for me? Why is there a goblin among them? What are you thinking?"
"That goblin is very good. He is completely different from ordinary stupid goblins. He is an excellent engineer and has his own studio. You didn't see him fighting."
Themis looked at Elos who looked disbelieving and said with some displeasure:

"I'm too lazy to say anything more. I have my own ideas on how to select my own team members. I was fighting on the battlefield before entering hell."
"Well, I won't discuss with you how to set up tactics and how to fight. We have had too many arguments in this regard during this time."
"I am amazed by your whimsical ideas in this regard," Themis said with a smile: "Although it is too whimsical, I have to say that many of your words have inspired me a lot."
Eloise was silent. During this time, he and Themis talked a lot. Eloise tried to instill in Themis some fighting methods of the elite troops on the main plane, but blindly copying them could only lead to arguments.
If you talk to Themis about music, the fallen angel will definitely keep your mouth shut, but if you talk about how to win a small-scale battle, then Themis will not obey anyone, she has her own way.
"I know you are laughing at me. I admit that you are better than me in small-scale battles, so I won't say more, just one sentence," Iloth caressed Themis's face and said, "You yourself
be careful."
Themis's face instantly turned red. She could quietly devote herself to Ilosu, and she could also argue with him in the only place she was good at. However, she was completely unable to deal with Ilosu's occasional concern.
"I, of course I know."
Themis turned her face to avoid Elos's hand, but she regretted it after she avoided it. Themis could only blush and said in a panic:
"Then I'll go get busy. There are still many things to do."

Elos nodded and watched Themis rush out of the camp with a smile.
He had already chosen a target for this ten-man team. There was a manor about ten days east of the current Elos camp. In the manor, various bright red grapes and some high-quality barley were grown.
Of course, there are also a large number of breeding rooms. The large number of fat larvae cultivated in the breeding rooms are enough to keep Iloth's legion for a while.
Of course, the manor also produces high-quality, sweet white bread, and there are also aged wines in the wine cellar.
This is a manor that provides food for the army and nobles. The nobles will not be satisfied with just larvae. For some devils with taste, sweet and refreshing human food is also a special delicacy.
Although food is not that important to the army of hell, because the devils can go decades or even hundreds of years without eating without fear of starving to death.
But the feeling of hunger and the powerlessness caused by long-term hunger will still haunt the devils. The devils are not not eating, but just starving to death.
Moreover, with food, the legion's combat effectiveness will also be improved.
There were about three hundred enemies in the manor, and about a hundred of them were truly enemies. Elos hoped that Themis' ten-man team could complete this task.
