Arad's Sword

Chapter 138 Completely Blocked
Fight the tree of life with the tree of life.

It sounds like a natural and very simple thing, but it is extremely difficult to do it.

In an environment where the magic veins of the whole country are controlled by the Nibelungen Dragon Sealing Formation, how to find a piece of pure land that can make the young tree of life grow?Even if this piece of pure land is found, how can we cover up the various visions when the tree of life grows?

Not only to find a suitable environment, but also to ensure that it can grow to a certain extent without being discovered.

Once any of these two conditions cannot be met, the result will inevitably be an all-out attack from the Fenglong Formation, and the consequences will be disastrous.

The meaning of the Elder Elder is naturally to secretly plant the tree of life in the ancient city of Qiu.

After all, this is the territory of the Asrex family, so it is convenient to act in secret.In addition, in view of Alice's previous arrangements, the magic vein here at least brought together the strength of the two counties, and it was able to supply the needs of the Tree of Life in the early stage.

However, Midi eventually denied this.

Because if this is really done, the tree of life will never grow to the point where it can protect a country.Not only that, the so-called acting in secret, another way of saying is to pin everything on luck.

After planting it, the only thing Midi and the others can do is to pray that the pretender who controls the Nibelungen Dragon Sealing Formation will not notice the abnormal flow of magic power here and will not launch an attack.During this period, they did not have any offensive capital at all.

Twenty years after her rebirth, Midi had already decided that she would not entrust her fate to others, so how could she agree to such a passive approach?
Three days later, the affiliated camp of the Royal Academy of Magic.

This place is only more than 100 kilometers away from the capital Hetton Maar. It was the place where the academy trial was held last year. Under the turmoil of the civil war, no one took care of it, and it was a mess everywhere. Monsters visited.

However, according to calculations, just under this camp, there is a main vein of the Dragon Sealing Formation.

"My lord Midi, with all due respect, this is definitely a...crazy decision." The faces of the elf elders and a group of elf gardeners became very ugly, "You actually want to plant the seeds directly on the Belmare Tree of Life on the root system?"

"That's right." Midi nodded lightly, but her eyes were calm.

Not only that, the red-haired girl and the black-haired girl standing silently behind him also had very calm expressions.

In Midi's view, since it is possible to plant the Tree of Life anywhere in Belle Mare, it is possible to be discovered, so what needs to be done is to reduce the growth time to the shortest possible time.That being the case, the location of the dragon vein with the most magical power naturally became the first choice.

Even if he was a pretender, he would never have imagined that Midi would have the guts to plant a tree of life under his nose.

As for the abnormal magic power caused by growth, there is no solution.

"Compared to other areas of the Principality, the location of the dragon veins has the most frequent flow of magic power. Now the Nibelungen Dragon Sealing Array has been activated, and it is constantly accumulating magic power every week to attack other areas and attack us. It's the best opportunity to say it!" Midi analyzed word by word, and finally came to a conclusion, "As long as you try to disrupt the situation and make this kind of attack more frequent, then it is enough to cover up the growth of the tree of life. Timely exception!"

"Master Midi means to actively create chaos?" Hearing this, even the elf elders who don't know much about military affairs can understand his thoughts. Can you lead them by the nose?"

"The purpose of the pretender is still unclear. Queen Skadi is already weak, and now she is shrunk in the national defense formation, so it is not easy to start. However, don't we have another ready-made prey?" Midi Said, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

a day later.

Within the Duchy of Hamilton, County Wesker.

When the tree of life became a terrifying symbol of destruction, most nobles, especially members of the Hamilton family, would look up at the sky from time to time, worrying whether the next thunder attack would fall on them.

However, in Wesker County, whether it is a civilian or a soldier, or a knight in full armor, or a well-dressed nobleman, no one does this.

On the contrary, most of the time, the attention of people, especially the sentinels, was concentrated outside the town, as if they were worried that someone would come to attack.

These people have the blood of the Hamilton family flowing in their bodies, but at this moment, they are considered enemies of this land.Because they are members of the "Scroll Branch", traitors of the family.

In fact, most people are ignorant of the various conspiracies planned by the upper echelons. However, the weapons, armor, and mounts used to destroy the iron cavalry, and the funds embezzled for the purpose of storing the army over the years, etc., are, to some extent, all from their labor.

Therefore, when Domingo revealed his identity, whether he was a commoner or an aristocrat, everyone in the Scroll branch had already been branded as "guilty".

In normal times, after finding out the truth, the Golden Branch Legion would immediately intercept and slaughter all the scroll branches.Even if it is determined to abandon everything and run away, it is useless, not to mention whether it is possible to escape, other nobles including the Senator faction, no one will accept such a traitor.

But it's different now. Under the deterrence of the power of sealing the dragon, all the troops, including the Golden Branch Army, can only choose to lie dormant and hide in dark corners, and dare not make any big moves at all.

As for the scroll branch, it can still sit in its own county seat in a grandiose manner, accepting the protection of the Fenglong formation.

In the first few days, the people in the scroll branch were still very nervous.

However, after two or three weeks, everything is still calm, and people's minds have gradually settled down.

Perhaps this time, the Scroll branch will really have the chance to become the ruler of the Principality of Bel Mare!
Not as Hamilton, but only as a "scroll", standing at the apex of a country!

Such expectations gradually began to form in people's hearts.

But soon, the alarm bell sounded sternly over the county city, which woke everyone up.

"Enemy attack! An enemy is attacking! Hurry up to defend and block all the main roads!" When they saw the flag, the centurions immediately shouted hoarsely, "It's the Falcon Regiment! That damned falcon regiment is here!"

On the hill not far away, thousands of high-ranking adventurers riding tall horses have emerged from hiding places, and in front of the formation are three hundred nightsaber cavalry.And at the forefront, there was a young man with black hair and black eyes. Beside him, the flag bearer was impressively holding a fluttering large flag, on which was embroidered a sharp sword with two wings.

This is the symbol of the Falcon Group, the Winged Sword!
In the Battle of Rainbow City, the record of 5000 destroying cavalry being defeated by [-] Falcon regiments has long spread throughout the Principality.Besides, the Shujuan branch didn't have many soldiers. Excluding the [-] Destruction Cavalry secretly built, there are only a few hundred local defenders in this county.

At this moment, the Falcon Regiment and that genius commander appeared outside Wester County, which naturally terrified everyone.

Fortunately, the mysterious black-robed mage sitting in Wesker County City immediately sent a magic message to the capital. When Midi and his party approached the county town, the sky outside the county town also began to change color, lead gray. The dark clouds kept piling up, forming thick stratocumulus clouds, as if some kind of overwhelming attack was brewing.

Seeing that the purple-gold thunderbolt was about to finish charging, Midi didn't stay behind, but just led thousands of Falcon regiments around Wesker County in a demonstration, and then hurriedly retreated.

Witnessing that this terrifying force in the principality retreated without a single shot, the branch of the book burst into cheers from top to bottom.

Look, no matter how powerful the army is, it can only retreat in front of the power of the Dragon Sealing Formation!
People thought this way, and once again strengthened the ambition of the scroll branch to be the leader in the end.

However, the good times didn't last long. On the afternoon of that day, when a supply team from the Scroll Branch arrived, they ran into a large number of traps on the post road, and then turned their backs on their backs. Most of the supplies were burned by the inextinguishable magic flames on the spot.

In the middle of the night, another large group of mutated Minotaurs were also attracted by some kind of bait, and a fierce battle broke out with the garrison team of the Scroll branch, and both sides suffered heavy losses.

Early the next morning, the defending general had to send everyone out to clear the traps.

However, this time Midi brought adventurers with expertise in this area. There are all kinds of traps and baits, and how can they be cleared so easily?For three full days, when the soldiers of Wesker County finally paid the price of dozens of casualties, they finally cleared a safe passage.

However, it was as if he had already calculated the opponent's ability.On the morning of the fourth day, Midi brought people back again, circled the county town as usual, and then withdrew again before the purple-gold lightning fell.

Looking at the traps all over the mountains and plains, the defending general's eyes were darkened, and he almost passed out.

The same situation continued to happen in the other counties where the Shuan branch was located.

Everything seems to have returned to the situation when the Grand Forest fire had just burned out.

At that time, due to the mutation of monsters and the rampant banditry, all places became turbulent, and material transportation and commercial activities were extremely difficult.But now, it's not the "amateur" monsters that create this kind of problem, but experienced experts like the Falcon Group, and they only target a few counties, so the blockade is even more terrifying.

After a week of action, it can be said that several counties have reached the point where they cannot leave the city at all. Once they go out, it is difficult to move an inch.

And although the support from the Sealing Dragon Formation has been extremely fast, how can it keep up with the rhythm of this extremely dense harassment?
Most of the time, the defenders could only cower behind the city wall, watching the Falcon Group unscrupulously set a large number of traps, and then walked away.

"Thunder and lightning attacks have no effect on us. Next, those pretenders should show their real power? And as long as we use the power of sealing the dragon continuously, it is time for us to take the opportunity to plant our own tree of life!" Looking at In the distant capital of Hutton Mar, Midi's eyes flashed with a gleam of confidence.
