Section 16 Raid
Ashu Rufate observes the camp of the enemy in a safe place.
The Dark Elves' camp was in a mountain depression. It was a very well-built camp with trenches dug outside and a wooden wall was built with pointed wooden stakes. Judging from their military projects, the elves' military ideas seemed to be no different from those of humans.
This is not a camp that can be built in just one night. So Ashu Rufat inferred that this is the base camp of this dark elves unit. They set out from here to attack the Shadow Warriors' new home.
Ashrufate couldn't help but sigh at the military qualities of the dark elves. After experiencing such a loss of more than half and the general's defeat, they still set up strict defenses. Sentinels were set up in several key positions. Unless they were scouts who were particularly good at hiding, ordinary enemies were extremely difficult to get close to. If it were a human army that suffered such a failure, it would be extremely difficult to maintain such discipline. At this time, the camp must have been panic, everyone was at a loss, and it was even more impossible to stand guard seriously and stay vigilant.
It is the discipline they showed at this moment that made the elves who were following them dare not attack immediately.
Ashrufate retreated. All the elf warriors were hidden on the side of a small mountain, with only a few shadow warriors serving to monitor the enemy's actions.
"What should we do?" Xunfeng asked. Although they destroyed half of this enemy yesterday, the number of enemies is still more than twice that of them at this moment.
"We can break through with magic, they don't have magic messengers," Dinaser suggested.
"Their camp has multiple entrances. Our troops are only enough to attack one of them. If we break through magic, they will definitely retreat... and we cannot guarantee that they will not have warlocks." Verinor pondered. "If they were not dispatched yesterday, then their number would be more than we expected, and even warlocks followed. Also, don't forget their crossbows. Yesterday we raided their crossbow shooters from the rear, making it impossible for them to fight back. If we attack their camp today, they would definitely shoot with crossbows... The first target of the shooting was the magician!"
A long roar came from the forest, which changed all the elves' faces. A shadow warrior who served as a scout rushed over.
"Bulin Dragon!" He explained the situation briefly and clearly.
"Dragon?" Ashu Rufat quietly climbed into the previous observation position. With his extraordinary vision, he happened to see the wild beast moving in the dark elf camp clearly.
"Carrie, what is this?" Ashu Rufate asked in his mind.
"This is a multi-headed dragon. The master, it is called "dragon", but it actually does not have the wisdom of dragons. It is actually just a multi-headed monster. At most, the head looks a bit like a dragon and can also spit fire. They are lonely creatures, living in the underground world for many years, and prefer living in dark caves and foul-stealed abyss. Please note that multi-headed dragons are violent and aggressive beasts. They rarely rest and prepare or hunt at all times. And although they are huge, they are very quiet hunters who can patiently track their prey for a long distance without revealing their location. When they finally roar and pounce on their prey, the prey usually has no time to escape."
Ashu Rufate noticed that several Dark Elves' trainers really drove them to the center of the camp with sharp thorns and long whips. He returned to his previous position. Verino and the others were waiting for him.
"No wonder they retreated but stayed in the camp and were not afraid of our pursuit." Verinor said. "They had a bull dragon...but why didn't they take the dragon to the battlefield yesterday?"
"I think it may be that this bull dragon is not very good. They are worried that the bull dragon will go wild and accidentally hurt its friendly forces on the battlefield." Xunfeng said. "This kind of thing is very common. I have seen it more than once. Yesterday they had an absolute advantage in numbers. I thought they were sure to win, so I didn't bring this beast with me."
"They have too many, and there are many dragons..." Dinaser said softly. "We must go back first, strengthen our defense, and send envoys to seek help."
"Magic can communicate." Ashu Rufat was a little strange. Dinaser was obviously a magician, but he seemed to have never considered using magic to transmit relevant information back.
"I can't do that, I'm still an apprentice." Dinaser glanced at him, but finally replied. "I can only master the power of the Beast Wind at this moment. More things need to be mastered."
The magicians of humans and elves are indeed different... The first step for humans to learn skills such as magic communication, and then they can learn combat spells.
"By the way, Xunfeng, you said just now... that bull dragon was not well trained, right?" Ashu Rufate suddenly had an idea.
"It should be so, otherwise they would bring it yesterday. The bull dragon is a irritable and aggressive creature and can easily lose its temper and hurt its own people."
"If we could stimulate the bull dragon...for example, shoot it secretly with an arrow, it should have gone wild in the camp, right?" Asu Ruffat asked.
"It is feasible in theory... but it is difficult in fact. The key to the bull dragon is not the head, but the root of the neck, but the scales there are very thick. Ordinary arrows are difficult to hurt them. And in this situation... Our evil cousin has arranged multiple sentinels. If we kill the sentinels, it is equivalent to exposing ourselves. If we don't kill the sentinels, we will not be able to get close to the range of the arrow at all."
"I can try this," said Ashu Rufate.
"It's impossible, the limit we can get close to is more than twice the range of the bow and arrow."
"I said I can try it." Ashu Rufat repeated again. "Xunfeng, you said you have seen the scene of a bullish dragon running away... How did our evil cousins do that at that time?"
"Apart from the tamer, everyone else will avoid it." Xunfeng replied. "Waiting for the tamer to regain control of this terrible beast."
"Well, I just saw the trainers walking towards the other side with the multi-headed dragons... There are three entrances and exits in the enemy's camp. The main residence of the enemy is here..." Ashu Rufate simply set up a schematic diagram on the ground with a few small stones. "From the arrangement of the enemy's camp, after the multi-headed dragons go wild, they will definitely escape from the camp from the nearest entrance and exit. Our troops have a little insufficient direct attack, but if the trap is set up and waits for them, there is no problem."
"Are you sure it's possible?" This time the question was Verino. The Marine Captain was very confused.
"At least there will be no problem. If things don't go as far as I expected, then it's time for us to retreat." Ashu Rufate replied.
...
Ashu Rufate climbed a hill.
The Shadow Warriors were right, and this was the limit he could approach. If he got closer, he would definitely be discovered by the sentry unless he activated the color change ability of the armor. Even here, he had to bow down and hide himself in a clump of weeds half a man tall.
But here you can clearly see the multi-headed dragons in the enemy camp. The wild beast looked very anxious, with several heads constantly moving, and his body was constantly wandering back and forth in a small space.
The best case is to cause the bulls to go wild. The second is that the enemy divides troops to pursue him (whether sending a small team or sending a large army), creating opportunities for Verino and the others.
The dark elf's sentinel turned around and began to observe another direction. Ashu Rufate had mastered the sentinel's movement rules just now, and he believed that the sentinel would not turn back for at least one minute.
He stood up and held three pairs of bows and arrows in his hand. At this position, the normal range of bows and arrows is far beyond the inside of the camp. But the three bows and arrows should be almost the same.
Ashrufate tightly grasped the bow and arrow, and the next moment, the three bows were pulled apart by him at the same time. The elves' bow and arrow were similar in strength to human bow and arrow, but the production technology was more sophisticated and easier to aim.
"Do you want me to help? Master." Carrie reminded in her mind.
"No, I'll do it myself." Ash Rufate replied. Then he released the black magic, which was not an ordinary use, but instantly condensed the black magic energy, but did not release it.
Like the last time, he felt as if he had eaten a whole can of rotten oil. But at the same time, he felt his perception was expanded, full of vitality of life. This feeling was indescribable, as if every sense of his body had expanded to an incredible height. He could sense the faintest touch on his hair and skin. The wind flowing in the air, the biggest obstacle to long-range shooting, has now displayed every tiny flow within his perception range.
He focused all his will on his hands and eyes, and then loosened the bowstring.
After shooting this arrow, he paused for a second, just for a second, and he heard the terrifying roar of the multi-headed dragon. The wild beast finally ran away!
Accompanied by the terrifying roar, the flames rose from the camp of the Dark Elves. This was the fire squirted out of the multi-headed dragon. Ash Rufate saw the dark elf sentry turning around in extreme surprise, and then a shadow pounced on him behind him. An ambushing shadow warrior attacked and pierced his chest with a sword.
Under normal circumstances, the dying wailing of sentrymen immediately attracted the attention of the camp, but at this moment, this faint sound had long been drowned in a more chaotic voice. Even if it was heard, his companions had no time to pay too much attention. The multi-headed dragon was rampant around the camp at this time, attacking any creature that dared to stand in front of it. While it kept using its multiple heads to bite all living creatures around it, it rushed and hit the enemy with its huge body. At the same time, smoke was sprayed out from its mouth, igniting various facilities in the camp one by one.
