Orc corpses were piled from outside the forest to the edge of the forest, and pools of blood even accumulated in some low-lying areas.
The third army of the orcs did not escape Richard's encirclement and suppression. Xi Aier completed the task very well, entangled the orc army with a little loss, greatly slowed down their marching speed, and allowed Richard to arrive in time.
In the combat position, just after the orc army left the forest and had no time to form a team, they collided with the army led by Richard who was coming.
With a wolf in front and a tiger behind, naturally there was only a massacre waiting for the orcs. The orcs who hurriedly faced off faced a human army that had just won a battle and had high morale.
In the opening scene, four giant dragons fell from the sky and immediately stunned the orcs. In addition to the familiar square golden dragon, there were also slightly unfamiliar black dragons and red dragons, but the combat power of these unfamiliar dragons was not weak at all.
In particular, there is a black dragon that is much larger than other dragons. The power and range of the dragon's breath are much greater than that of ordinary dragons. One breath of dragon's breath can directly cause the casualties of dozens of orcs, which is very similar to the records.
The ancient dragon in .
In this battle, Moriel actually got playful. After Richard took over the command of the army, she transformed into a black dragon and led three giant dragons to wreak havoc on the orc army. After Moriel transformed into a black dragon, it was stronger than an ordinary dragon.
According to Richard's observation, when Natalis did not use death judgment, Moriel was even stronger than Natalis after transforming into a black dragon.
It has escaped the category of the peak of the sky level, but has not reached the holy realm. It must be defined and can be called a false saint. If there was Moriel when Rand, the envoy of the Rising Sun, came before, maybe it would not
You need to use the Ring of Rebellion to fight against Rand. I don't know whether the black dragon transformed by Moriel is stronger or weaker than the ancient dragon in the records.
They didn't need much command. After a burst of dragon breath washed the ground, Richard directly ordered the entire army to attack. The soldiers rushed forward to harvest the heads of these orcs who were in chaos. Richard finally sat leisurely during a battle.
He smoked a cigarette on the horse and became his ideal superior.
"A glorious victory!"
"Congratulations on your upgrade!"
As the battle ended, the long-lost prompt sounded. After two victories, Richard finally accumulated enough experience to reach level 21. Starting from level 20, upgrading becomes increasingly difficult. Various attributes are still there.
A weak increase, but the improvement of this attribute to Richard is not obvious. A skill point cannot be used randomly for the time being. It is saved by Richard. He must keep this attribute to break through the Lieyang Qi Entrainment Art. According to Richard
It is estimated that after Liyang Qi Drawing Technique reaches the master level, it will be time for him to step into the holy realm.
After this battle, Moriel and Siel also gained a lot of experience, but Moriel's basic level was just there. These experiences only gave Moriel a small upgrade. The improvement was not obvious, but Siel's level was not obvious.
The Salted Fish Elf was leveled up five times in a row due to its low initial level.
But when Richard looked at Xi Aier's panel, his expression darkened.
Introduction: A pure girl of the forest, kind-hearted and close to nature, loved by unicorns.
In addition to comprehending a primary defense technique and upgrading the Qi-Entraining Technique to one level, Si Aier's fifth-level upgrade is the same as if he had not been upgraded.
This guy actually added precious skill points to financial management skills, one thousand jinnar a week. Well, actually it's quite a lot, but Richard has never confiscated Xiair's jinnar, so he used these skill points to add some points
Nothing else is wrong, this salted fish really fell into the eyes of money.
"Siel!"
"Brother Richard."
Si Air, who was riding the sacred unicorn, looked at Richard with a smile on his face, and his tone was a bit coquettish, which was obviously a sign of guilty conscience.
The sacred unicorn under her seat also shook its hooves uneasily. She didn't know whether he was intimidated by Richard's aura or sensed Si Air's uneasiness.
"What happened to your skills?"
Richard was not polite to Xi Air either. Although Xi Air behaved well this time, it did not prevent Richard from teaching her a lesson.
"Well, I don't think so. It's all added randomly."
This is true. Richard has also discovered this problem before. When heroes including Ron upgrade, their skill points will be allocated independently and are not very controlled. However, this happened to Xi Aier, a little money addict.
Basically, they are added to financial management skills. Richard doesn't believe that there is no relationship with Xi Aier himself. Maybe it is related to the hero's personality. For example, after Ron upgrades, the points are mainly added to combat-related areas. Ron
En has suddenly changed from the peak of knights to the peak of great knights. It is estimated that Ron will reach the level of the earth level in just two battles.
Although Xi Air's reasons were very good, Richard did not want to let her go easily.
"From now on, I will hand over 500 kinnar generated by financial management skills."
"500 pieces?"
As soon as Richard finished speaking, Si Air's face suddenly fell. Originally, her financial management skills were to produce five hundred gold nuggets a week, but now her master-level financial management skills can produce a thousand gold nuggets a week, but Richard just said it.
She asked for half of it and left, but it felt like her financial management skills had not been upgraded.
"How about less than half, two hundred and fifty?"
"I think you're only a 250-year-old, so you can't do that!"
Si Air didn't know what she said that offended Richard. Seeing that Kinnaar couldn't protect himself, Si Air's whole face looked like he was about to cry, but this method had no effect on Richard. She should be allowed to go to the hospital.
You have to hand it in. Richard is afraid that this guy will upgrade and use a large number of skill points on financial management in the future. It would be a waste to directly develop a master-level financial management.
Regardless of Xi Aier's tearful look, Richard forced his heart and walked away to inspect the battlefield. Even though the battle had been won, there was still a lot of finishing work waiting for Richard to deal with. Looking at the wounded soldiers,
Encouraging speeches are essential. Although the enemy has achieved an unprecedented victory this time, the orcs are indeed not soft persimmons. There are still many casualties. Not counting the losses of the systematic army, just the Dragon Army and Silver Wings.
The legion's casualties are over 3,000, and there are still hundreds of wounded lying around.
Next, the class teacher will return to the city to record meritorious deeds and reward them. All of these are waiting for Richard to sort them out slowly.
…
Piaoxuecheng
Because the distance was close enough, less than three days after Richard defeated the orcs, news of the Hunter family's victory had already spread wildly in the city.
"You don't know, my cousin is a soldier in the Hunter family's army. He told me that the orc general was beheaded by Lord Richard on the battlefield. These orc strongmen were beheaded by Richard on the battlefield.
You are simply vulnerable in front of adults!"
"No, Sir Richard is the number one master in the kingdom. I heard he is even more powerful than Sir Thor. Killing a few orcs is like chopping melons and vegetables."
"What's the use of being so powerful as Lord Richard? I heard that the orcs came with tens of thousands of troops and were defeated by the Hunter family like this?"
"What is a defeat? It is annihilation. The corpses of the orcs were spread out for more than ten miles, and the blood flow turned the soil several meters underground red."
"Let me tell you, according to my cousin, there were more than ten dragon knights in the Hunter family in that battle, and they followed the dragon knights and overwhelmed the orcs!"
"Just brag. Apart from the kingdom, which noble can have more than ten dragon knights? The Hunter family's army has just finished fighting. How can your cousin meet you and tell you so much?"
"I, can't you write a letter? Besides, if there were no dragon knights, how could the Hunter family defeat the tens of thousands of orcs? Sir Richard is the king's son-in-law, so your majesty is not allowed to send the dragon knights to help?
"
"It seems so, but more than ten dragon knights are too exaggerated. There are only five dragon knights in the kingdom."
"The kingdom says there are five great dragon knights, just the five great dragon knights. I don't know how many dragon knights are hidden in the royal capital. How much money does your family have? Do you tell everyone about it?"
This braggart can always tell some lies. Although most people in the crowd think that this man is bragging, they have to admit that what this man seems to say makes sense. At least according to the rumors, if an army of tens of thousands of orcs
Without the help of the Dragon Knight, the Hunter family would never be able to win.
"Hey, the Hunter family is so powerful, I think this Piaoxue City must change its owner."
"It shouldn't be the case. The Lanster family is also the marquis of the kingdom. The Hunter family can't directly seize Piaoxue City no matter what."
"If the Hunter family really robs them, will the Lanster family resist?"
"There are still 80,000 troops in Piaoxue City."
"Can this 80,000-strong army defeat the orcs or the dragon knights?"
"Tsk, tsk, this is not something we should care about. No matter whether the Hunter family or the Lanster family is in charge of this snowy city, my tavern will always be open. As long as they are neither ogres nor orcs, it doesn't matter to us.
Woolen cloth."
"That's right. I have to remind my brother that if the Hunter family comes to seize Piaoxue City, don't resist. It's not worth fighting the Hunter family to the death."
This great victory had a far-reaching impact, and even brought certain things to the table. People who were more sensitive in the past had already noticed that the balance of power in the North had reversed. Now even the ordinary people in Piaoxue City know it.
The Lanster family is far inferior to the Hunter family. I'm afraid it's time for the Northland overlord to be replaced.
Naturally, the top management of Piaoxue City would not fail to respond to this kind of thing that even the common people of Shengdou knew about. They got the information earlier and in more detail.
Piaoxue City Senate.
This institution was reduced to a decoration when Marquis Wade and Lint were in power. After James became Marquis, he had the opportunity to become more powerful. There were even faint signs of suppressing James, Marquis of the North, which he had already vetoed before.
Several times James made decisions that made James angry but helpless.
Now they are gathering here to discuss important matters without notifying James, which has obviously excluded James from this decision-making.
"Has everyone read Master Lin Te's letter?"
Just now, they circulated the letter sent by Lint. Now most of them had complicated expressions.
They had a grudge against Lint. During the short period of time when Lint was in power, the Elders Council was suppressed to the extreme. They would kill people whenever they wanted, without showing any mercy. How could they be as comfortable as ostracizing James now?
If possible, they don't even want to mention this name, but they can't not mention it now. The Hunter family is too powerful. They are different from James, an impulsive young man. Although they have some selfish motives, they can see the problem from a further perspective.
Being more thorough, he naturally understands the embarrassing situation in Piaoxue City now.
To put it bluntly, the Lanster family now has a standard mismatch between strength and status. They occupy Piaoxue City, the largest city in the North and the territory with the most advantageous geographical location, but do not have the strength to match it.
It would have been okay if the situation was stable, but now a blind person can see the chaos in the kingdom. When order gradually disintegrates, it is a bit dangerous for them to hold Piaoxue City and such a large territory.
"Senior Igor, what do you think of Master Linte's letter?"
"The conditions are too harsh. Before the Hunter family comes, we will be like surrendering."
"Yes, if Piaoxue City is handed over, the army is reorganized, and only part of the land tax rights and personal property are retained, can the Lanster family still be called the Lanster family?"
"What can I do if I don't agree? Four giant dragons have appeared in the Hunter family this time, as well as giant beasts. There are no less than two sky-level experts. When they come over, you will die first or I will die first.
?”
Although the Lanster family has declined, its foundation is still there. Basically, through this battle, the strength of the Hunter family has been fully grasped. But sometimes, the more you know, the more frightened you become.
"Senior Andesa, there is no need to be so absolute. After all, the kingdom is still there..."
"Huh, Master Lint's letters are all here. The Hunter family is already ready to take action. Are you still thinking about the kingdom?"
"Now that the Hunter family has the power to defeat the orcs, and there are four giant dragons, even if our Lanster family is destroyed, what can the kingdom do?"
"But the conditions are too harsh. Should we call James to discuss it?"
"no!"
"no!"
This statement was quickly opposed by many people, and even the veteran himself realized that he had said something stupid.
"James must not know about this until the last minute."
"How about we ask Master Lint to intercede? At least half of the fiefdom should be reserved for our Lanster family?"
"Hey, would you agree if half of the fiefdom were all under the name of Master Linte?"
"this…"
"Okay, okay, I'll send someone to discuss it with Master Lin Te, there must be a solution..."
"Oh, let's try it, let's try it..."
…
Town of Demons
Lint, who took the initiative to write to Piaoxue City to ask them to submit to the Hunter family, had no intention of cheating the Lanster family. He had already given the Lanster family a clear guide for the sake of this surname.
road.
Except for James, who is a bit stupid, the Lanster family's elders are all experienced figures. They may not be able to see the situation clearly for a while, but with Lint's reminder, they will probably wake up and peacefully solve the problems in Piaoxue City.
This was Lin Te's wish at this time. He was planning to give Richard a surprise before he could react...
At this time, Richard has not yet thought about this issue. The mission regarding the orcs has been completed, and one month has come. He now has many things to do in Stone Castle...
