my age of magic

Chapter 720. Disraeli Knight's Troubles

At night, it began to rain lightly in the sky.

But for our team, it is a happy thing. The rain will wash away all the remaining smells in the forest, and it will also allow those giant spiders to hide in the dense canopy. They don't like to be active in rainy days.

In this way, our orc team took advantage of the night and the light rain to quickly leave this mountain.

Takama likes the jungle in summer and is used to standing in the rain to patrol. She is a very good jungle scout.

In the tropical rainforest of the wild swamp, it rains for more than half of the year, so when Takama runs in the rain, she runs faster than usual. Her eyes can still see far in the dark night, and she can Easily discover the crisis lurking in the dark night.

With her scouting ahead, we can avoid all the giant spiders hiding in the canopy. They are fixed sentry posts set up by the masters. A giant spider will be entrenched.

These giant spiders have obvious territorial divisions, and almost every giant spider will not cross the border at will. Even in such a rainy night where the ground is muddy and slippery, Takama can guide us to avoid almost All giant spider guards.

……

In the Battle of the Nameless Valley, it was not an easy task to kill this team of spider warriors.

At the last moment, the orc warriors were a little foolish and chose to defeat these spidermen from the front. Although the strength of the spider warriors at that time was less than half of what they used to be, these big guys like heavy cavalry still brought us a huge impact. It was a lot of trouble, and many orcs in the team were injured.There were even three unlucky orc warriors lying on stretchers and being carried forward by others.

All the orc warriors seem very tired, but we need to get away from that area quickly. I believe that before tomorrow morning, some spidermen will find that they have lost 47 brave warriors, and there must be a large number of giant spiders. Search The jungle in this area, we have to move to a safe enough area overnight.

Thank you Eva, the water god, for the rain tonight.

Qige is wearing an all-black magic robe, with a big cone hat on top of her head, covering herself completely. This kind of magic robe is like a raincoat, and the road is more difficult to walk. I asked Qige to Sitting on Ruka's shoulders.

In the rain, I can feel the abundance of water elements. As a water magician, I found that my magic recovery speed has been significantly improved, which can increase the magic recovery speed by about 20.00%. The extremely rapid recovery of magic power makes me Along the way, I kept releasing 'hydrotherapy' to the injured orc warriors. I hope their injuries will recover quickly.

In this black forest, you never know what will happen in the next second, so the orc warriors must return to their best condition as soon as possible.

Behind our team, there were still those remnants of the heavy infantry regiment. When the head of the infantry regiment counted the number of people, he found that the remaining number of the 200-man heavy infantry regiment was less than 80, and three-quarters of the number The soldiers were injured to varying degrees, so after cleaning the battlefield and hastily buried the bodies of his companions, the head of the infantry regiment came over to chat with us and expressed his gratitude.

Later, the head of the group found out that we turned out to be magicians from the Royal Academy of Magic in the Imperial Capital. As for these orc warriors, they belonged to our retinues. Nobles with orc warriors as retinues are still very rare in the Grimm Empire, but me and Qige is a noble magician, nothing is impossible, the leader didn't ask too much, for example: Why did he bring so many subordinates all at once during the experience.

I also learned through the self-introduction of the head of the regiment that they were not from the heavy armored infantry regiment in Durva Province, but belonged to the Marquis Armand and Nora Angel, the second son of the Grand Duke of Samoyed. The son of the Princess Boulder, the personal guard of the young Lord Horace, who had a domain west of the province of Durva, from where they came.

Qige and I looked at each other and didn't say anything, but Qige's eyes seemed to be telling me that she knew some stories about Princess Nora Angelbold, as if they were many members of the royal family in the Grimm Empire Among them, there is a place.

Because of the rush to evacuate the area as quickly as possible, we didn't talk much.

Many soldiers had already run away during the first major defeat. The commander of the infantry regiment gathered the numbers and asked to go with us. I agreed to his request.

Many of them died, and the remaining infantry soldiers were also wounded all over, barely following behind our team.

The soldiers of these heavy armored infantry regiments are not stupid, they clearly know that in this area full of spider warriors and giant spider guards, only by following us can they have a chance of surviving.

The orc team detoured to the outside of the Trum stronghold on foot, on the edge of the mountains on the east side. There are hills all over here, which are very similar to the landforms of the Antia Mountains on the plane of El City, but there are also jungles here. The orc warriors obviously It is more suitable for such hilly areas.

Takama told us: The giant spider guards in this area of ​​the forest are not densely arranged, and there are very few spider warrior squads, so you can choose to rest here for one night.

If it wasn't for the exhaustion of the orc warriors, according to the information provided by the lizard maid Takama, I would even take some orc warriors to secretly eat all the spider warrior squads in this area. They are all in a group of five to eight people. For us, it is not difficult to swallow these squads of spider warriors.

"Let's take a rest first!" Kalancuo raised the hood on his head and looked at the surrounding forest.

Then she continued to say to me: "We can just like hunting the barbarians outside the city of El, in this hills, before the spiders can react, we can quietly eat all the spider-men squads, Let those spider people know we're coming!"

Her eyes are full of enthusiasm for war, but she can still maintain a sense of reason at this moment. After all, these orcs have gone through a big battle, and their physical strength is very serious. They need to rest!
……

In the hilly land, we found a fault in the rift zone, where there is a naturally formed large rock crack, which has enough places to shelter from wind and rain.

The orc warriors seemed to be used to this kind of hunting life. After they arrived here, they didn't sit down and rest. Everyone had a clear division of labor. Some orcs found some suitable stones to support the pots and stoves, and some orcs were responsible for lighting fires to boil water, preparing hot soup and baking wheat cakes.

They cooperated to set up some rawhide tents, dragged off those wet leather armors, and baked them next to the fire. These wet leather armors were worn on the body for a long time, and they were easy to get sick. After marching, they need to warm up by the fire, drink a bowl of hot soup, fill their stomachs, and have a good sleep.

Orc warriors have become accustomed to using the 'focus fire' magic scroll.

When camping, the orc warriors would not pick up those twigs and licorice. They mainly chose some of the most burnable trees. Spread it out in the stove, wait for the red flame to burst out, and then add a lot of rough firewood to it, and the fire will be raised quickly.

The temperature of this kind of flame is very high, and the water in the large iron pot will be boiled quickly, and then they will throw the meat muffins like bricks into the boiling water pot and boil them over high heat, and some people will put a can of lunch Canned beef is added, and some orcs even bring some dehydrated vanilla crumbs. You don't have to wait too long, and a pot of fragrant broth will emit a strong aroma.

At this time, those baked wheat cakes as big as washbasins will be piled up on the edge of the stove, and they can be roasted with the residual heat from the edge of the stove.

Each of the orc warriors held a copper lunch box that looked like a large teacup, and they took turns making broth next to the big iron pot in an orderly manner, and received a piece of wheat cake, and then sat next to the campfire, side by side. Constantly turning over the wet leather armor, while silently nibbling wheat cakes and drinking broth, the soldiers of the heavy armored infantry regiment were a little dumbfounded.

When did these orcs actually pay more attention to their diet than regular soldiers like them?
You can use the magic scroll to make a fire extravagantly, and you can eat baked wheat cakes and broth made of fine wheat flour. The most important thing is that these broths are cooked from expensive meat floss and canned luncheon meat. This kind of food standard, in the Green Empire In the army, it is the treatment that those constructed knights will have.

However, these orcs seem to have become accustomed to it!
……

The infantry regiment also hid in the crevices of the rocks not far from us and camped, and began to light a fire and cook.

Their tents are made of coarse linen and felt cloth. After being wet by the rain, they are very heavy on their backs. They choose to use half of the stone wall, lean the branches on the stone wall, and then cover the felt on the branches. In this way, the simple shack is set up, the only drawback is that it is a little damp.

The forest is full of trees, but these branches are all wet by the rain. Even if they can be ignited, there will be a lot of thick smoke, especially in this rainy day, a lot of thick smoke can't go out, and those heavy armored infantry regiments The soldiers here were choking and coughing non-stop. If Qige hadn't cast the wind spell to blow away the thick smoke, I don't know how long the soldiers of these infantry regiments would have to toss.

When the soldiers of the infantry regiment struggled to light the fire, the orcs had already started eating.

The dry food they brought was a multigrain cake mixed with some vegetables, salt and chopped animal offal. This kind of marching dry food is said to be very popular in the Green Empire. This kind of multigrain cake does not need to be heated and can be eaten at any time. It tastes very good It is very convenient and can be stored for a long time. The only disadvantage is that it is a bit hard.

However, as long as you boil a pot of boiling water, break the hard multigrain cakes into a bowl, and pour hot water on them, those multigrain cakes will immediately become very soft and rotten. As for whether they taste delicious, that depends. It depends on whether the person who eats the cake is hungry or not.

Obviously, the soldiers of this group of heavy armored infantry regiments were very hungry. Although before that, they were extremely envious of the food of the orc warriors, when they were ready to eat, they all devoured it very deliciously.

……

When the ribs of the neatly cut devil antelope were taken out of the magic sealing box, they were still steaming coldly.

For a long time, Qige has high requirements for food. Many foods that are inconvenient to preserve will be put into magic sealing boxes. In Qige's magic pocket, those magic sealing boxes can only hold two kinds of things. It is a rare magic herb that needs to be freshly preserved, and the other is fresh ingredients. She is not willing to put the magic materials exuding magic power from those monsters into the magic sealing box for storage.

The butter in the pan was roasted sizzling, and as it slowly melted, it exuded a sweet smell. The bone-in lamb ribs were placed in the pan, and then each side was fried golden. In order to lock the moisture in the fresh meat, it is then roasted slowly until it is medium-rare.

This kind of devil antelope meat, apart from being fresh and tender, is actually not much special, the most important thing is whether the prepared secret sauce is in line with the taste. I put a lamb ribs on the plate and poured Some sauce, and then put in two onion rings, a piece of toast, in front of Qige.

Then, in the same way, he put three pieces of ribs, two pieces of barbecue sausage, some onion rings and a stack of bread slices on a plate, and placed them in front of Knight Disraeli, the commander of the heavy armored infantry regiment, and smiled faintly at him, Said: "You must be starving, please enjoy it slowly!"

"Thank you two master magicians for the sumptuous dinner. If I can see Lord Earl Horace again, I will definitely tell the Lord Earl what you have done. It was you who fought in the valley just now. You have saved our hoplites, please allow me to express my most respectful thanks to you!" Knight Disraeli obviously received the traditional etiquette education of nobility, he sat on a wooden stool, straightened his body, his face full of Grateful.

The silver armor on Knight Disraeli's body has been taken off, and he is wearing a very soft sheepskin vest. The beard on his face is meticulously groomed. Although he looks a little embarrassed, he is very polite.

I also put a piece of grilled lamb chops on the plate in front of me, and then I raised my head to signal Takama not to wait on the side, and to go to eat quickly.

Then he asked the Disraeli knight: "Why did you and your heavy armored infantry appear in Trume at this time? The Trume stronghold here is already surrounded by spider warriors!"

Hearing what I said, Captain Disraeli's face turned pale, and a thin layer of sweat immediately appeared on his forehead.
