Chapter 15 When is the Return Date
In the rain forest, a battlefield that has just experienced a battle.
The deep marks of chopping, broken vines and leaves, arrows that plunge deeply into the thick trunks, and blood sprinkled all show the tragic battle that just ended.
As more and more mercenaries and adventurers flocked to the rainforest to try their luck, there have been more and more battles in the rainforest in the past few days, and such battlefields are often seen.
Under a huge banyan tree dozens of meters away, Arthur was playing with an octagonal golden magic array plate, and red beams of light shot out from the array plate from time to time.
There were dozens of corpses scattered on the ground in front of Arthur. They were the previous protagonists on the battlefield in front, and now they were all dragged here by Arthur.
Arthur seemed to be doing research. After absorbing the life energy of a corpse with a red beam, he carefully observed the changes of the bead in the middle of the array plate. Moreover, Arthur was also carefully comparing the differences in the life energy provided by different corpses, and even asked Huey to help catch a few wild beasts and kill them for comparison.
Ten Princess, Ling Yu and the others thought this was disgusting and they were hiding far away. Only Huey was helping Arthur, and Joan occasionally came over to chat with him.
When Arthur sucked the life energy of the last corpse in front of him, the bead on the magic array plate in his hand was already red and beautiful. This is the result of Arthur's past days.
Qiong came over to help and burned all the shriveled corpses on the ground with flames. When a wind and a rain passed, all the traces of these dead people returned to nature completely.
"Are there any new discoveries?" Qiong asked casually.
"It is not considered a new discovery. The life energy provided by the deceased is different when he is alive. The life energy provided by a war school is seven or eight times that of the war lieutenant."
Qiong nodded gently, "This is understandable. The process of martial artists' cultivation is the process of tempering flesh and bones. The powerful martial artist's body naturally contains more energy."
Arthur pulled down the bead in the center of the magic array plate and threw it to Qiong, "You try it too. I used various methods and found that we humans cannot use these collected life energy, and probably the elves should not use them either."
"Strange, why did the elf work hard to collect these things?"
"I guess there may be special magic arrays that can re-transform these energy, or provide energy to some special magic array."
"What should I do next? Will you continue to be an oriole in this rain forest?"
"Forget it, it's getting messy here, and there are even many guys with ulterior motives who come to us. Let's hide as soon as possible."
Arthur refers to a sneak attack that he had just experienced yesterday. Fortunately, Gru's vigilance set up on the periphery did not allow the mercenaries to successfully attack. Arthur and his friends caught a prisoner and found out that the Tu Ling Mercenary Group had actually released a high reward at the Mercenary Union, and whether they provided their whereabouts in the rain forest or the assassination they succeeded in getting a lot of rewards.
As a mercenary, Arthur knew that his colleagues might not be very strong in their true combat power, but he could not defend himself with all kinds of strange means, so Arthur was worried and said.
"Are we going back here? It's hard to hand over the information we have at hand to Professor Shalin, right?"
Arthur had already planned, "Of course we can't go back like this. Let them fight in the rainforest, and we can take the opportunity to enter the Elf Kingdom to check the movement. If we are lucky, we may be able to catch a few Elf seniors, and they may know more information."
Joan suddenly smirked, "Maybe we can capture the Elf Queen directly and let Elanni be the one, so that the Elf Kingdom will have no secret to us."
Arthur gave Joan a blank look, "Is it no secret to you?"
......
The setting sun was as bloody as a group of tired orcs slowly heading south under the setting sun. Many soldiers were wounded, their armor was covered with blood, but their expressions were not too depressed.
Leon eventually lost.
When more and more Blood Wolf Cavalry rushed to the top of the city, Leon was ready to withdraw his troops, but the black fire of the Demon Flame Priest further aggravated Leon's losses. But Leon did not make the wolf master better. He insisted that his soldiers lead the Blood Wolf's soldiers into several main streets and alleys in the city for street fighting, and then set fire to the city, burning a large number of Blood Wolf's soldiers to death in the streets and alleys.
It is a pity that this orc court, which is ranked among the eight miracle cities, was first robbed and set fire by human cavalry and sea humans, but now it was burned by Leon on a large scale. It was two times damaged by war. The orc court in Divora's hands has become a broken city.
Not to mention rebuilding the streets and buildings in the city, it would take several years and sky-high costs to restore the city defense buildings. What's more, Leon secretly transported away the wealth and important items in the palace before the Blood Flame Wolf's army sieges, leaving Divola with almost an empty city.
Next to the Wasteland Road, Leon, who was stained with blood, looked at a warrior walking past, but his eyes became more firm. Although he was defeated in this battle, he also had this elite soldier who followed him to fight most of the wasteland. The baptism of the war and the attack of the Orcs' Court made these soldiers become stronger and more fierce and loyal.
Leon's eyes slowly turned to the Northern Royal Court that he had already disappeared. He would definitely come back, and the entire orc wasteland would surrender to him!
......
Leon was not the only one who wanted to return to the orc court. Eliot looked north every day and was so angry that he felt like a lion king. Even though his eldest son died, the information about the change of ownership came one after another, and he forced himself to lead his troops back to rescue and retake the royal court.
Before he decided to send troops to the east, he had already made the worst plan to give up the Orcs' Court. Even if he lost Tugandra, most of the tribes in the original sphere of influence could still surrender to him. The wolf lord Divola was limited by the blood oath of the Beast God. Taking the Orcs' Court from Leon was considered a staggering ball, but if Eliot captured his original tribe before returning, it would be considered a violation of the oath and would be cursed by the Beast God.
Compared to an empty city in Tugondra, the human land occupied by Elliot now is more important. This land is richer than most places on the wasteland, and more orc tribes have moved to this land.
Because half of this land was promised to the Sky Green Eagle, even though Eliot suffered consecutive setbacks, 50,000 or 60,000 Winged Warriors still firmly chose to stand with him and protect this rare land. Elliot himself gradually gathered and trained more than 200,000 troops over the past few days.
The Fengxue and Frost Thunder Corps on the opposite side, plus some soldiers transferred from the guards of each city were nearly 300,000. The troops of the two sides were not much different, and the human race and orcs suffered losses in field battles. They only conducted one tentative attack these days, and both sides suffered casualties and were killed or injured.
This battle also made Elliot see the confidence to completely protect the area. However, every time I look north, I still feel sad, "Where is the return date?"
