Chapter 449: Know the enemy and know yourself

Author: Night Knight

Chapter 449: Know the enemy and know yourself

The first person on the right is Eglas, the chief of the Mountain Tribe, and Carissa sits next to him, which is considered a seat. They naturally represent the Goliaths of the Mountain Tribe, and they can fight with up to a hundred troops.

The second person on the right is Nora. After she escorted the dark scourge plant to Misnoel, she knew that Gavin was in trouble, so she asked Zalanda to lead the hundred Nott Guards cavalry and stay here to assist Gavin.

.

The third person on the right is Lola, the tree spirit. She represents the group of dark activated plants under the Tower of Domination.

The ones on the left are reinforcements, and the ones on the right are Tethyr's local troops.

When Gavin finished introducing the general capabilities and military strength of the six parties, the entire combat conference room was silent.

Not to mention the two leaders of the mountain tribe and the tree spirit Laura, people like this who had limited understanding of Gavin's background were so shocked that they couldn't open their mouths from ear to ear.

Even Daphne, who thought she was Lord Gavin's personal secretary and had eaten him through, was a little dizzy.

Although she has never seen most of the other powers, she at least knows a little bit about them, or has heard of them, but what on earth are the dark treants represented by the tree spirit Lola?

Is there any place that Misnoel doesn’t know he can’t go to?

Although the root of the god that was sealed is gone, the nature of the sealed place has not changed. It is still an isolated place. Except for Gavin, who is the operator of the Domination Tower, he personally uses the teleportation technique poured into the Domination Tower.

No one has the ability to enter or exit this place, including Daphne in her shadow state.

But there was no ordinary person present who had very fast receptivity.

General Stelina was the first to speak: "Lord, joint operations are not necessarily a good thing, especially when so many races come together and it is their first time to cooperate.

Not only will they not exert supernormal strength, but they may restrain each other, especially in the case of most unnatural races.

Fighting in a dense forest will have a greater impact. I suggest that before we officially face the enemy, we should conduct several exercises to cooperate."

"This is inevitable." Gavin nodded in agreement, "It is not enough to understand by words alone, especially when we need to deal with cunning enemies like drow elves. If you are not careful, not only will you be attacked by them

If you slip away, they will bite you back."

Gavin is now experienced in multi-racial alliances and is well aware of the difficulties, especially the various cognitive dislocations caused by racial differences. Once they are not handled well, it can easily lead to huge misunderstandings, and then draw swords against each other, or even break out conflicts.

War, even if both sides are kind races.

But once they are well adjusted, the complementarity they bring can achieve the magical effect of one plus one being greater than three.

Stelina continued: "I suggest holding a self-prayer ceremony to guide the power of the fairy wilderness, giving these unnatural races the temporary ability to travel through the forest, and reducing the obstacles to them in the dense forest."

"Is there such a ceremony?" Gavin looked surprised, "What do I need to prepare?"

"There is no need to make any preparations." Stelina replied solemnly, "This ceremony is a self-ceremony. You must pray devoutly, love nature from the heart, and be willing to embrace it and accept it. Whether it succeeds or not,

It’s entirely up to him, and not everyone may get a response.”

"Understood." Gavin nodded clearly. This thing is similar to the kobold's dragon-seeking ritual. One embraces the power of his own blood, and the other embraces the power of nature.

Gavin thought for a while and then said: "Then let everyone give it a try, but this attempt must be placed in the Tower of Domination. It has the ability to amplify people's consciousness, especially perception, which may make it easier for them.

Feel the power of nature.”

"The lord looked at the arrangement, but as far as my personal experience is concerned, it is of little use, because everything depends on their personal reverence for nature. Without this, no matter how powerful the perception is, it will be useless." Si

Trina was somewhat unimpressed.

"When it comes to reverence for nature, we Goliaths are not inferior to our friends in the forest, but we all have different reverence directions. What you revere is that nature gives birth to all life, and what we revere is the majesty of nature. I believe

At this point, we can find a common language and unlock the blessings of nature." As the great shaman of the mountain tribe, Carissa has the most say on this matter.

Because many of her abilities are not simply the use of elements, but also guided by primitive beliefs, especially those involving Goliath's own markings, which are out-and-out natural forces. However, their natural forces originate from

From the earth, from the mountains.

Who said that only forests are natural?

Aren’t mountains also an important part of nature?

"Very unique way of thinking!" Stelina couldn't help but take a deep look at Carissa, not only because of the other person's unique ideas, but also because of the part of the drow blood that the other party showed.

Regarding this part, Gavin was afraid of being tabooed by both parties, so he did not say it directly in public.

But as mixed-bloods, especially drow mixed-bloods, they are very sensitive to each other and can basically determine each other's condition at the first sight.

Compared to ordinary people, they are more curious about each other's hidden stories about the drow. Perhaps they want to find resonance and allies with the same hatred and hatred from this matter.

When Stelina was examining her, Carissa looked back, and their eyes met in the air. In an instant, they seemed to understand each other's eyes, smiled kindly, and seemed to have reached some kind of agreement.

tacit agreement.

"There is no use in just guessing about this kind of thing. The important thing is to try. This is a very good direction. Do you have any better opinions? The main purpose of our operational meeting is not to formulate a strategic plan, but to

It is to pool our wisdom and provide more possibilities from multiple perspectives to completely crush the enemy's conspiracy plan." Gavin asked enthusiastically.

No matter how many people are able to fulfill their prayers in the end, in Gavin's opinion, they all have a good start.

"It is said in the military book that if you know your enemy and yourself, you will be victorious in every battle. Master, we are just close friends now. Can you tell us what you know about the enemy? This will make it easier for us to formulate targeted tactics." Nora asked.

, she is the ultimate admirer of the book of strategy and has long memorized it by heart.

"Sorry, sorry, sorry, this matter was my mistake. I forgot such an important thing." Gavin couldn't help but sigh, "As expected, reading military books is one thing, but actually applying them is another.

Make things right."

Fortunately, Gavin never admitted that he wrote the book of strategy, otherwise it would be a huge shame.

Except for Nora and Veranika, no one else knew the deep meaning of his exclamation.

After sorting out the information in his hands, Gavin said: "The enemy intelligence I have is pieced together, and a lot of it can only be used as a reference, not as direct intelligence.

But one thing is certain, this group of drow elves are not spider-kissers, but followers of the masked king Velen. They are better at hiding their traces, and they are also better at driving monsters in the shadow plane, especially night shadows.

Daphne, tell me what you gained there."

"As ordered." Daphne, who was well prepared, stood up respectfully and replied, "Under the Mir Forest, there are three drow colonial bases: Holdbin City, Iskayur City and Delnox City. They

There is a common origin in the ancient city of Aldus. This city is located underground in the Calimshan Empire. It has a huge underground network and once controlled the political situation of this slave empire.

There has been a secret Night War between the four drow cities, and Ancient Aldus City has always had the absolute advantage.

Until a masked king-priest named Masojinas, the Venomed Blade, appeared. He led an elite team called the Night Blade to defeat the spider-kissers where they did best.

Spread a large amount of intelligence information about Ancient Aldus City in the Calimshan Empire, expose their conspiracy in the Calimshan Empire, assassinate the other party's political puppets, support their own rise to power, and reveal the secrets of Ancient Aldus City's manipulation of the Calimshan Empire.

, guiding the Calishan Empire authorities to launch a full-scale counterattack against the Spider-Kissers.

At the beginning of this year, the followers of Velen achieved a brilliant victory.

Guodus City had no choice but to raise the Dark Mystery Lock, completely hiding itself and cutting off all connections with the ground.

The Poisoned Blade became the uncrowned king of the three drow cities. From the beginning, there were rumors that he was the chosen one of the Masked King. Once this happened, it was 100% certain.

The Masked King values ​​victory in the war with the Spider Queen above all else.

In the confrontation between the two, it is rare for the Masked King to achieve such a comprehensive victory, it is one of the few cases, and the Masked King will definitely give a heavy reward."

The first half of what Daphne said was all information extracted from the soul of the flying winged night shadow that Gavin killed.

The fate of the flying winged night shadow was the same as that of the Red Dragon Ghost. After being dragged to the Weizeme Manor, he was eaten and wiped clean, and turned into a general building bearing point. What he provided was different from what the Red Dragon Ghost provided.

Probably, this seems to have a certain relationship with their life dice.

As for the last few sentences, they are obviously Delphine's personal speculations.

There was a hint of dissatisfaction in Gavin's brows, and he warned: "When sharing information, don't include too much personal conjecture. You will have the opportunity to express your own views later."

"I know I made a mistake." Daphne admitted her mistake in a good-natured manner, "The matters regarding the other party's voters did not come from intelligence, but from my personal reasonable reasoning.

The three cities are all nominally loyal to the Poisoned Blade, but like all drow cities, their loyalty is not worth placing too much expectation on.

They each have their own plans and secrets.

The drow that fought against the friends of the mountain tribes before came from the city of Delnox, and the one who was killed by the lord was one of the most powerful rulers of this city, the terrifying Nightshade Bunir.

It was they who first discovered the secret that the Root of God was sealed under Mys Noel, and revealed it to those Moando servants.

The purpose is to use it to seize control of Mys Noel and obtain an above-ground base.

Even though Bunir, the terrifying night shadow, was transformed into a shadow after his death, it did not hinder his resurrection. His shadow has confirmed this."

Unless it's some extremely special spells, such as Black Heather's Prisoner of Souls.

Otherwise, ordinary ghosts, ghosts and shadows will not prevent the body from being resurrected, and in most cases, will not destroy the existence of these spirits.

This situation is very consistent with what the Dark Tree said about me yesterday, me today, and me tomorrow.

The existence of these spiritual bodies represents the person he was yesterday, and the resurrected person represents the person he is today. There is no conflict between the two.

However, the situation of the shadow is relatively special. The resurrected person will lose his or her own shadow, and cannot take back his shadow until he destroys the shadow.

The same shadow will also sense the resurrection of the original body immediately and strive to kill the original body, because once it succeeds, it will be able to extract all the life essence of the original body and replace it to become the unique me today - instead

In other words, people killed by their own shadow will have their souls dissipated and lose the possibility of being resurrected again. Even if the real shadow is destroyed, the real shadow will be resurrected in the end, not the original body.

Unless the gods personally take action, after resurrection, they will become new independent individuals and will not have any impact on the real shadow.

Daphne glanced at Gavin carefully and found that he did not classify this information as unauthorized speculation, and then continued: "The population of drow in Delnox City ranges from 2,500 to 3,000.

Between the names, Iskayur City’s population should be about the same, while Holdbin City’s population is the largest, at least as much as the two cities combined.”

hiss!

Upon hearing this population figure, everyone present couldn't help but take a breath of air.

A population of more than 10,000 is really nothing among human beings. It is a small-scale city at best.

But among the drow, it would be quite terrifying.

Due to the problem of Lolth, the Spider Queen's partial favor, she gave the drow a longer life.

I have only heard of drow being killed due to internal fighting, and rarely heard of drow dying of old age.

The drow have a cruel internal fighting environment. Their internal rhythm is even faster than that of short-lived humans. They typically seize the day and make long-term plans, which are the prerogatives of the strong.

But they are among the long-lived species, which results in their very high internal quality.

I dare not say that everyone is extraordinary, but at least they have a professional level, and it is not too low, usually two or three or more.

Don't think that two or three are low. Drow are born with spell-like abilities and have three natural hit dice. Their upgrade difficulty is relatively high, so they are naturally more powerful.

Stelina couldn't help but ask: "The population you are talking about refers to the drow population? Or does it include the servant race?"

Drow are notorious for enslaving other races, whether intelligent or non-intelligent, to serve them.

If you add these slave races, it would not be surprising to have such a large population.

"If the pure drow population includes the slave race, their urban population will double or triple on this basis. The situation of the slave race in Holdbin City and Iskayur City is not clear. Delno

The most noteworthy thing about Kes City is that there is a high-ranking Medusa lord in this city, and he has an elite Medusa team, which is best at driving basilisks and sneak attacks on petrified enemies." Daphne replied.

After listening to the introduction of the enemy's strength, everyone involuntarily became 100% alert.

Their seemingly very powerful troops seemed a bit underwhelming compared to their enemies.

"Where are the drow who are making trouble outside Mis Noel? They can't come out in full force, right?" Noda is typically rough and subtle. Although she has never fought against the drow head-on, she can tell from the other party's performance.

Look, it doesn't look like there are tens of thousands of people.

If they really had this strength, the opponent would have launched a massive siege long ago.

Even the Mystery Lock is not omnipotent and can be broken by force. It just depends on the cost.

Seeing that Daphne was hesitant to speak, Gavin waved his hand and said: "After I have finished the information, I will talk about my personal analysis. No matter whether it is right or wrong, I will forgive you."

Gavin treated Daphne harshly, but Daphne didn't feel anything about it, or in other words, she was used to it.

The others looked at her somewhat sideways. Although compared to others, she was his direct subordinate and acted completely based on his expression, but this kind of dogma was a bit too much. However, thinking about the character of the drow, it seemed a bit

relieved.

Daphne then replied: "I think what we need to face in a short period of time should be the entire army of Delnox City.

There are three reasons. First, the enemy cannot figure out the Lord's situation, especially when the Lord comes with the power of the Root of Destruction and kills Feiyi Yeying forcefully, they must treat it with caution."

"That makes sense."

Everyone nodded involuntarily. Compared to the second point, the first point was more powerful in deterrence.

The believers of the Masked King had to be more cautious. When fighting against the Root of God, Gavin sent two unconventional beings.

The incarnation of Ms. Strategy is relatively easy to evaluate, but the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, which appeared in front of the world for the first time, is even more confusing.

If they attack in a big way, who knows whether they will provoke these two irregulars again. At that time, their only way is to ask the masked king to come down and incarnate.

It's okay to win, but if you fail, the wrath of the Masked King will not be so easy to bear. It is not surprising that a god known for his chaos and evil would do any heinous things.

"What about the second reason?"

"The second reason is because of their old enemies. They only burned down the city of Ancient Ordus and weaved a huge spider web in the Calimshan Empire, but did not completely crush the spider to death. The centipede insect died but did not freeze.

The followers of the Spider Queen will not admit defeat easily, and will definitely wait for the opportunity in secret. This makes them dare not go out in full force to prevent their old enemy from taking over.

The war with us has failed. At worst, they will retreat to their underground lairs, and the surface races will not easily dare to chase them underground and start a war with them.

But if the war with the Spider Queen’s followers fails, they will most likely be uprooted.”
