Chapter 665 Prairie Dwarfs
Chapter 665: Grassland Dwarf
When the last rebelling demon knight fell in a pool of blood, the sun had just set below the horizon, the dark night was dominating the earth, and the dark blue sky began to shine with stars.
The Air Knights from the Ice Wind Fortress made the greatest success in the raid on the Demon Outpost Camp. Except for a few lucky enough to escape into the ice field, one thousand Demon Sky Knights and five thousand Demon Warriors were almost completely wiped out. This is definitely the biggest victory achieved by the Titans since the demons recently harassed the Taimur Snow Mountain defense line.
In contrast, the Assault Air Knights only killed less than twenty knights, and only a hundred injured people. The losses compared to the demons can be said to be minimal.
Although Wisconsin was very excited, he did not lose his mind and forgot his duties. As soon as the battle ended, he immediately ordered the battlefield to be cleaned and required to evacuate within ten minutes.
After all, this is the territory of the demons in the extreme north. The demon camp behind the outpost camp is likely to have received news. Staying for one minute will make you more dangerous. If it is not for the need to collect intelligence and spoils, the best choice is to withdraw the fortress immediately.
Interestingly, among the two thousand Sky Knights, not many Thunder Sky Knights participated in the cleaning operation, because they didn't even look down on the equipment and supplies of the demons, and they relied on their identities to circling in the sky and waited in the sky.
The barbarian knights of the Ice Wind Fortress happily seized every second to launch a search operation on the camp. Whether it was weapons or armor, they were taken away as long as they were not damaged or damaged.
The resources of the Far North Continent are undoubtedly poorer than those of the Titans, but the demons have been dormant for thousands of years before they break out, so the army's equipment is quite good, including many magical equipment, which is also a rare thing in the Nine Heavens Continent.
Han Fei also got one of his own trophys. The black-robed mage was hit by his whip of flames and even his wand was wiped out. However, there was a dark gold ring with a simple shape and was well preserved.
Although Han Fei didn't know its origin and purpose, the power contained in the ring surprised him. He believed that the black-robed magician had withstood his two kill attacks with this magical jewelry, and was definitely a first-class good thing.
Ten minutes passed in a blink of an eye. Although the harvest of ice wind sky knights were still unsatisfied, Wisconsin still issued an order to retreat. The air knights regrouped and quickly returned to the Ice Wind Fortress under the cover of night.
Less than half an hour after the assault air cavalry group left, a demon air cavalry group appeared above the outpost camp.
The night was dark, and the knights in the sky could not see clearly the situation on the ground. A magician immediately released the illuminated fireball. What they saw was a devastated ruin, and thousands of corpses in a row. A layer of blood-colored ice formed on the ground of the camp, which was particularly shocking under the light of the fire!
………
For the Titan barbarian garrison on the Taimur Snow Mountain defense line, the perfect success of the Ice Wind Fortress on the Demon Outpost Camp was undoubtedly a great boost to the morale, especially as the air cavalry reinforcements and heavy crossbow weapons of the human race and the beast race arrived one after another, everyone's confidence in resisting the invasion of the demon race increased greatly.
Taking advantage of this momentum and the arrival of reinforcements, Wisconsin took the opportunity to join forces with the garrisons of other fortresses to launch an operation. A large number of air cavalry took off to fight to defend the front line of the Taimur Snow Mountain. The reinforced air cavalry began to eliminate the demon air cavalry that fled into the Titan territory and eliminate the enemies that raided the supply channel.
The Thunder Sky Knights also participated in the battle, and the sky riders of tens of thousands of human and beast tribes galloped over the northern grasslands, making the sky behind the Taimur Snow Mountain clean.
The northern prairie in late winter is quiet and beautiful, with ice and snow melting, rivers and streams flowing, and the buds of the green grass tenaciously emerge from the still frozen soil. The tens of millions of green points represent that the goddess of spring has finally begun to patronize this land.
At this time, the south is probably already in spring! Han Fei thought silently, bowed and snatched a handful of water from the winding and clear stream under his feet and threw it on his face. The cold snow water stimulated his skin and made him feel refreshed.
In the east of the grassland, the rising sun is blocked by clouds and mist, and the true appearance is hazy. The mist on the grassland has not yet completely faded. The earth is empty and quiet, and the continuous mountains in the distance are like dormant dragons.
Almost half a month has passed since the raid of the Demon Outpost Camp. Most of the demon cavalry that penetrated deep into the Titan territory were strangled and driven away. Reinforcements and materials from the human race, the Tianling race and the beast race in the southern continent were continuously imported into the Titan Empire, and some of them were enriched to the Taimur Snow Mountain defense line, and the power to guard the ten fortresses and the Great Wall of the Ice Wall was greatly enhanced.
In the past few days, an ice storm broke out on the ice field north of the snow-capped mountains. The demons temporarily stopped harassing the snow-capped defense line, but for Han Fei, his mission did not end there.
The command of the Thunder Sky Knights has been completely handed over to Wisconsin. The middle-aged barbarian nobles used their strength and prestige to convince three thousand rebellious sky knights. After Han Fei let go, he paraded around the grassland near the snow-capped mountains every day, chasing the Demon Black Knights of the Demon Clan.
The invaders who infiltrated the Titans were quite complex, including scouts, full-time hunting teams, established air cavalry groups, magicians, etc. They attacked the barbarian supply routes on the grassland without restraint, and the innocent civilians and business travelers, and even attacked the cities in the eastern grassland, posing a certain threat to the imperial capital Spark.
These invaders did not completely disappear after being eliminated and expelled. Some of the elite soldiers remained in the Titan territory. Among them, the Death Black Knights are the most elite and difficult to deal with. They are rare in number but extremely powerful. They are single-handedly driving the high-level demon vultures and elusive. One of them dares to launch a raid on a supply team.
The Black Knights of Death are extremely cruel and cunning. They like cheetahs on the grassland like cheetahs. They suddenly take action when they see the opportunity, and immediately flew away without a single blow, and would never give their opponents a chance to siege. In addition, the Black Knights are good at night attacks, so many Titan Aerospace Knights and supply teams have suffered losses.
In order to deal with the Death Black Knight, the Empire also sent elite Sky Knights to search and hunt with two or three people, and the two sides fought on the vast northern prairie.
Han Fei is one of them, but he likes to go alone and rely on his powerful spiritual sense and overwhelming opponents to hunt the Black Knight of Death. In the past ten days, more than ten Black Knights have died at his hands.
This number doesn't sound like a lot, but you should know that the worst one of the Death Black Knights is also the strength of a junior Sky Warrior.
Just last evening, two death black knights attacked a caravan. Han Fei immediately tracked and searched it after getting the news, but the other party was extremely cunning. Han Fei lost his target here after tracking it for a night.
Returning to the Bingfeng Fortress first? Han Fei was a little hesitant, but he was more unwilling to give up. This was the first time he locked the target and lost it. None of the enemies in front who could survive as long as he found traces.
Such a cunning enemy is definitely a disaster to stay on the grassland, but where can we find their traces in the vast grassland? We can't try our luck aimlessly here, right?
Han Fei has been away from Bingfeng Fortress for several days. It was almost time to go back once. After all, he was a member of the General Staff of the Alliance Army and could not act too casually.
While hesitating, Han Fei's heart moved and suddenly turned his head to look to the side.
A bunch of weeds next to the stream twenty or thirty meters away suddenly moved, and a furry little head emerged from it. It looked at Han Fei with its eyes open, with a hint of suspicion and curiosity in its green eyes.
With messy dark red hair, a face full of mud, big eyes and a pair of pointed ears, Han Fei immediately recognized this as a grassland dwarf. Judging from his size, he should be just a child.
The grassland dwarves are indigenous residents on the northern prairie. They are different from the fierce and warlike Uge people. They are weak and cowardly. They make a living by planting straw mushrooms and rye, and are good at digging cave mines.
After the Titan barbarians ruled the north, they implemented a policy of gentleness against the grassland dwarves, allowing them to enter the city, mainly because they were attracted by the characteristics of the grassland dwarves being able to find the mining deposits.
Such a dwarf child certainly did not pose any threat to Han Fei, but Han Fei was a little curious about why he appeared here, and it seemed that he had crawled out of the hole.
"Come here..." Han Fei waved at him.
The dwarf obviously hesitated for a moment, but Han Fei was not a demon clan after all, or even a barbarian clan. He timidly crawled out of the grass and slowly approached Han Fei.
He stopped three or four meters away from Han Fei, and even bowed to Han Fei awkwardly, and said stutteringly: "Honor, respectful, Master Samurai, are you doing anything?"
His common language was pretty good, and Han Fei smiled slightly: "What's your name? Are you a resident here?"
Seeing Han Fei's smile and amiable attitude, the dwarf calmed down and said boldly: "Sir, my name is Assyrian. I am not a resident here. I live in Ludian City. I came here to dig pine cones."
Soil pine cones are a specialty on the northern prairie. They are plump and delicious, and have the effect of replenishing energy. Therefore, they are very popular among wizards, but they grow underground, and only grassland dwarves who are good at digging know how to find and dig.
