The mage arrives

The Lord of the North was wearing a tight-fitting mage robe with black gold trim, with different Neisser characters faintly appearing on it.Before getting close, Gordon could feel the strong magic fluctuations on the mage's robe - this is at least a piece of legendary magic equipment.

Abandoning the solemn and majestic attire that was more important than practical in Clear Water City in the past, the Grand Duke Rob Antello who came to the Saivato Fortress can be called fully armed.Apart from the strong priest robe, he did not carry the platinum scepter that symbolized the authority of the Grand Duke, but a light sword.

When the lord was young, he had ventured in the western wilderness, communicated with spirits, and lived with Eladrin.It is in the Alringheiro Tower that towers over the vast wasteland that he learned his swordsmanship, elegant and deadly.

Seeing the fully armed appearance of the Lord of Wands, Gordon naturally understood the seriousness of the orc invasion.

"Uncle An Tailuo, our mission has been completed!" The two golden dragon teenagers walked up to the Grand Duke carelessly and stretched out their palms.

"Lolanitis, Kanisalas, you two guys... I have already paid your father, why do you still come to me for it?"

"You know the temper of that miser father." The golden dragon boy pouted helplessly, "In order to decorate his and mother's dragon nest, he wouldn't even give us a single gold coin. Besides, you just asked us to stop the orcs, but set Teleporting the magic circle is an extra work, isn't it natural to pay for it?"

Standing in the distance, Gordon watched Grand Duke Antaello take out two rubies from his pocket with a wry smile, and threw them to the two golden dragon boys. biological nature."

The two golden dragon teenagers took the rubies and left happily.And the two adult golden dragons hovering in the sky.Seeing Rob Antelo coming, he also landed on the ground.

Many people couldn't bear the huge airflow blown by the dragon wings, and the little girl Yashina ran behind Gordon and hid with a cry of "Oops".

In a burst of flying sand and rocks, the two huge golden dragons flashed white and turned into human shapes.

The male golden dragon looked to be in his thirties, with long blond hair combed into a scrupulous back, and impeccable facial features, even compared to a rare handsome man like Dellington.However, those golden eyes were full of arrogance and self-respect, which made people feel inaccessible.

The age of the female golden dragon appears to be about five years younger than her mate.The appearance is also very good. Standing with her husband can only make people not even feel jealous, and can only lament the eccentricity of the Creator.However, her demeanor should appear more approachable, although she has kept quiet.But that maternal smile is still fascinating.

"Rob, what you pay is enough for us to help you for half a month. For the sake of our friendship for many years. Forget it today, and start charging tomorrow. If there is nothing else, we will leave first. If the group Green-skinned bedbugs dare to make trouble, call us at any time..."

The male golden dragon explained to the lord of the scepter, and left the crowd with his family.Unlike the red copper dragon who likes to deal with humans, the golden dragon doesn't like places with too many people.But when this noble and glamorous family of four passed by Gordon.The male golden dragon stopped suddenly.

He looked at Gordon with eyes like molten gold, and said in a low voice, "You actually have...strange, really strange, Lord Bahamut's thoughts. As always, it's unpredictable..."

After talking to himself, the male golden dragon made a movement that almost shocked everyone around him.He leaned forward slightly towards Gordon, saluted, and then walked away.

The proud golden dragon, who held his head high even in the face of a human king, would actually salute a little baron, a young mage?

Except for Rob Antello and Reinas who knew that Gordon held the Platinum Seal, the others couldn't believe the scene in front of them at all.

Jin Long, a woman with a more gentle personality, smiled lightly at Gordon, and then bowed to Gordon like a husband and wife.

"Big brother, goodbye." The two golden dragon teenagers named Loranidis and Kanisaras waved to Gordon and left behind their parents.

It is really a wonderful experience to be called big brother by two "kids" who are at least a hundred years older than themselves.

After Jinlong's family of four left, everyone turned their attention to Gordon.

Fortunately, Rob Antello pulled him out of this uncomfortable stare in time.

"Gordon, come with me."

Seeing Gordon and the lord of the scepter walking into an uncollapsed barracks, it seemed that there was something to discuss, and the others also dispersed.But Dellington stood where he was, staring at Gordon's back.

The conflict just now, and the scene of having to compromise because of Gordon's appearance, is still vivid in my mind.Coupled with what happened at the noble meeting not long ago, it made Delington feel like a thorn in his throat.I thought that I had caught the important information that Gordon had colluded with the undead, but who knew that before that, the other party actually took the first step and defeated Earl Thompson.

The aggrieved feeling of clenching his fists but having nowhere to swing them made Dellington feel that everything was not going well for a long time, and the hatred for Gordon in his heart became stronger and stronger.

In the Cold Mist Mountains, when he met Gordon for the first time, because Gordon was able to talk to Rob Antello alone, Dellington was wary, thinking that he was the biggest obstacle in his pursuit of Faria.Now, in this Fortress of Salvatore, after the fierce battle, the Lord of Wands did not meet with the commander of the fortress defenders, the leader of the Knights Templar, the Viscount Demon, and he did not meet with himself, the timely reinforcement of the fortress, and repelled the orcs. However, he chose to talk to Gordon first, which made Dellington very unbalanced.

"Gordon Freeman. After this war, I will become a well-known hero throughout Freyton, and you will only turn into a pile of bones and be buried in this barren and cold land!" Durlington Staring at Gordon, the hatred in his heart seemed to be able to condense into the deadliest venom...

"What happened in the dungeon, I need to know the details." Entering the hut, Rob Antello immediately asked.

Gordon told the lord of the scepter in detail what had happened since he first entered the dungeon—of course, everything about the Holy Grail of Goddess Titus' blood and Renas was skipped.

"You guys did a good job. Even I, I might not have expected that Zantaba cultist would be so crazy, and finally sacrificed himself to activate the magic circle. Judging from the current situation, it's not too bad, because you With such efforts, at least five days have been gained for the entire Far Frost Province to gather troops."

If the Legendary Earthquake Spell was launched without any compromise, as the Three Saints Baptist Church planned, and the entire Anduin Great Wall was destroyed, then the orc army could drive straight in, and camp outside Princess Marlene's Castle tonight.But now, they still haven't crossed the broken Great Wall defense line.

"What are we going to do now?"

Rob Antello said in a deep voice: "Retreat. Try to preserve your vitality, and send a small group of troops to harass the orc army, delay their advance speed, and then gather troops in Gaoyan City for a decisive battle."

This is a plan based on the current situation after discussions between Grand Duke Antaello and several generals.Even if the battle at Gaoyan City failed in the end, the worst result would be the fall of the entire Northland, which would at least buy time for the reinforcements from the central empire and other provinces.

Of course, it would be best if the enemy could be defeated in Gaoyan City.

"Can you hold on to the Anduin Great Wall for a few more days? This will buy more time for the rear to gather troops. I think if you use spells such as Turn Mud into Stone, Stone Shaping, and Stone Wall, you should be able to repair the security in a surprise attack." Duin the gap where the Great Wall was shaken down."

Grand Duke Antello shook his head: "The temporary walls built with spells are far inferior to the material of the Great Wall itself. If the enemy concentrates their attacks, they won't be able to last long. The reason why you were able to defend Fort Salvatore today is because the enemy In a hurry, they rushed south and were caught off guard. Although the orcs are backward in engineering technology and cannot make too strong siege equipment, but don't forget, they have the support of the Three Holy Baptist Church. Those cultists must have not yet revealed secret weapon."

There are a total of [-] frontier guards guarding the five strongholds of Anduin's Great Wall.These experienced soldiers are at least far stronger than the private army of nobles and temporarily recruited farmers.In order to gather as many troops as possible, the Grand Duke must seize the time to withdraw them from the already difficult to defend the Great Wall of Anduin, instead of throwing it into a unnecessary war of attrition.

Today Ugru Iron Claw's army suffered a severe blow and their morale was frustrated, so they chose to be cautious and temporarily retreated to recuperate.This is the best time for humans to retreat. After the warlord regains his senses, it may not be so easy to run away.

"I will arrange for the mage group to cast illusions to confuse the enemy scouts. Tonight, all members will evacuate. As for you, I think you have experienced so many battles and have reached your limit. You don't need to worry about the battle for now, enter Gaoyan City Rest well afterwards. There are more severe battles waiting for us."

"Of course, my lord." Gordon nodded.

He was about to go out when he suddenly remembered the four golden dragons who had a special attitude towards him, so he asked, "My lord, where did those four golden dragons come from? Are they reliable? They are probably our most important help in this war." .”

Gordon's so-called "reliability" was of course not that he was worried that the golden dragon would betray Freyton and join the enemy's camp.For the lawful and kind golden dragon, this is impossible.He was just worried that these arrogant creatures had weird tempers, and if they acted arbitrarily at critical moments and didn't obey orders, there might be big problems.
