Real elves vs fake elves

"Have those warriors... draw lots to select 1000 people, and you can choose five of your own apprentices to follow... You can also use wizard slaves."

"Just do it."

The implication is to let this group of people die.

None of the wizards present expressed any objection to this decision, so this absurd order that was not something a human should issue was given.

At this point, this battle no longer felt like a real battle.

That night.

Above the Allied Forces headquarters, several round-faced fat chickens were flying in the sky, and a few brave ones even landed on the dead trees in the city, looking around at the situation inside the city.

On the watchtower responsible for observing the movements of the elves, two wounded soldiers simply glanced outside and turned around to hide in the corner of the watchtower, with no intention of continuing to keep watch.

Anyway, those high-ranking people won’t come to check on me…

The specific process was that Clemena ordered the soldiers to carefully observe whether there were any elves' movements around the fortress at night. The wizard took the order and threw it to his apprentice and increased the task, night attack; Group Lu, ⑨④ Jiu San' Lu ① San Wu. The apprentice threw the order to the merchant and increased the task. The merchant threw the order to the military contractor and increased the task. The military contractor threw the order to the non-commissioned officer and increased the task. The non-commissioned officer pondered this ridiculous amount of tasks and always felt that something was wrong, but he had to bite the bullet and even went to the wounded camp to force men to join.

The wounded soldiers who were forced to go to the front line were completely stunned when they heard that they were assigned such an important task despite their bad deeds. Looking at the piles of soldiers in the city who were completely exhausted but had nothing to do, they felt unbalanced. After climbing up the watchtower, they were too lazy to even fool around and just gave up.

In another corner of the watchtower, an elf ranger in stealth mode was looking at the two wounded soldiers huddled in the corner in front of him, puzzled.

What does this mean, human?

Sending up two wounded soldiers, just for show? !

Is it to show weakness to the enemy and lure us into attacking?

The Elf Ranger pondered and turned to glance down at the watchtower.

There were piles of healthy people lying there doing nothing, but there was nothing that violated military discipline, after all, each person had less than two sips of water a day. In several dark corners, several human soldiers were fighting each other for some supplies. On the street, several military contractors were discussing the repayment and collection of usury. Most of the soldiers were lying there and gambling, but they didn't shout too loudly because they were thirsty.

The biggest feature of the entire city, apart from being packed with people, is the stench. The streets are full of feces and urine. Due to insufficient housing, some soldiers sleep on the ground, lying in feces and urine.

The wizards haven't even dug a good well, how can this toilet be good?

"It is impossible for such an army to have a decent combat capability." The Elf Ranger quickly came to the correct conclusion, "The key point is those human mages.

He is the most terrifying of this group of people."

"I'll test the city's internal security system as planned. The mages must have very strict protection for themselves, and my mission is to test the quality of these guys."

If a warrior and a mage fight face to face, the warrior will most likely die without a burial place.

But what if the warrior sneaks behind the mage like a nobody?

The boundary between warriors and assassins in this world is still very vague. After all, everyone has been squeezed out by the mage and has no living space. The stealth skills that the assassins are proud of are like a joke in front of the mage's invisibility. Therefore, it is quite common to be both a warrior and an assassin in this world.

The elven ranger observed the terrain again, pondered for a moment, and then sneaked towards a wizard's residence. The human warriors he encountered on the way seemed to be blind and had no idea that someone was passing by them quietly.

Chapter 92 As long as the business alliance launches an attack, everything will be fine

The morning at the Allied Forces Headquarters began with a screaming announcement.

A wizard was assassinated in the "heavily guarded" coalition headquarters with more than 300 soldiers outside.

Looking at the horrific corpse of the wizard, Clemena's face turned ashen.

Turning around, Clemena spoke almost through gritting her teeth. Anyone could tell what kind of anger was hidden under this beautiful face.

"What's the situation?"

The person who was speaking was a necromancer. After dealing with the corpse in front of him using a method similar to butchering a pig, the necromancer turned around and looked at Clemena. He did not show any fear of the woman in front of him.

"He has been dead for more than six hours. The cause of death was a knife cut into his neck. The cut was clean and neat, very beautiful. Such a beautiful wound is rare to see. The killing method of ordinary humans is too crude."

"Before his death, this guy was interrogated for about ten minutes. The methods were not actually very intense, but he still had a mental breakdown. Most of the injuries on his body were caused by himself."

"In short, this corpse doesn't have much collection value, because its spirit has collapsed and it can't communicate, so it's impossible to communicate with the soul or revive it as a zombie. This is all I can do."

After saying this, the Necromancer straightened up, obviously not wanting to stay in this place anymore.

"Thank you for your patronage. It's 20 gold shields in total. Don't think it's too expensive. This is the price of a homemade meal. We necromancers have had a hard time in recent years, and you are unwilling to help us bear the pressure of the Cathedral. It is reasonable to charge a little more."

Clemena made a "tsk" sound and signaled the mage slave behind her to pay, and her expression became increasingly dissatisfied.

"Are you interested in joining us in the battle?"

The necromancer was stunned when he heard this, and his eyes turned a little subtle when he looked at Clemena again: "What? You are not going to listen to the warning of the Grand Cathedral? Do you think you can withstand the pressure of the Grand Cathedral?"

Clemena: "Do it or not? Why so much nonsense."

The necromancer's eyes lit up: "In the name of the Lord of Maggots, of course I have to do it."

In order to increase her chances of winning, Clemena has decided to use necromancy to deal with these damn elves.

After all, for the wizards, it is really a question whether the combat effectiveness of the army of living people can match that of the zombie army they control.

As for the negotiations with the Cathedral, Clemena had thrown them to the back of her mind. The assassination of the wizard in front of her had obviously broken her defenses. Before she took on this mess, who could have thought that the elves had gone crazy to this extent?

The warrior assassinated the mage and escaped successfully. This was something that could only be seen in history, but it actually happened before her eyes. It even made Clemena feel a chill.

Just because the other party was able to assassinate this unlucky guy, did that mean they also had the ability to assassinate me?

Yesterday, after enjoying the company of a handsome man, I slept for the whole night. If he could sneak into the room and kill me without anyone noticing, there is a high probability that he would succeed!

"Strengthen patrols and night watches! Also, mages must also participate in the night watches! We can't just send out mage slaves to fool around. Even for the sake of their own safety, they must participate in the night watches!"

Clemena gnashed her teeth and gave orders to the mage slaves behind her, seeming to be really ruthless. Of course, whether the group of mages below could listen to her or not was still a matter of debate.

Because of the death of a wizard, the entire coalition headquarters became panic-stricken. Everyone was like a frightened bird. The towering city walls could no longer give them any sense of security. Those damn elves seemed to be able to roam in the darkness and could take the life of a powerful man so easily.

Even a wizard was killed so easily, let alone soldiers who had no magical powers at all?

The morale of the coalition soldiers once again experienced a new round of decline.

But even at this moment, Clemena had not yet given up completely, because she knew that she and others still had a backup plan.

"As long as the Commercial Alliance fleet launches an attack, everything will be fine!"

And here comes the coincidence, the fleet of the Commercial Union also thinks so

of.

Thousand Reef Bay, Commercial Combined Fleet.

Most of these "captains" were pirates, and a few were former captains of the empire. They joined the business alliance because they were persecuted for losing a fight, committed a heinous crime and were wanted on a large scale, or simply because of money. They were the black gloves of the merchants, taking in rich resources while also helping the merchants do some dirty work.

It is like when merchants find that they cannot defeat their competitors by commercial means, they let these "captains" defeat their competitors by physical means. Sometimes, in order to deal with other pirates, the "captains" will act as bodyguards to escort the merchants' fleets and ensure their safety.

In addition, captains sometimes have some "luck", for example, a noble of the empire "accidentally" lost a bag of gold and detailed information of a noble on an island. After these captains "accidentally" picked up the gold, they would also make a big fortune based on the detailed information.

In short, this group of captains have rich combat experience, strong combat effectiveness, and high fighting will. They are completely incomparable to the coalition forces of the Seven Cities Alliance. Even the real Imperial Navy is slightly inferior in their eyes. They call themselves the sons of the ocean and the darlings of the sea.

Then, these darlings of the sea met the true sons of the sea.

In a shabby tavern, several captains were drinking and chatting with each other with lingering fear. One of the captains did not even use a knife and fork. He directly used the hook in his hand to pick up a piece of bloody beef and put it into his mouth, chewing the beef and the mealworms clinging to it into pieces.

"Damn bastards, those elves didn't even fight us head-on. Do these bastards only know how to summon those giant monsters?"

While eating, the captain was still yelling and shouting with lingering fear. His attitude was indeed fierce, but his eyes were full of fear.

"Those damn sea monsters tore our three ships apart easily!"

"Three! That's a main battle cruiser! A main battle cruiser with 70 guns!"

"And that dragon! That damn dragon..."

In fact, the dragon did nothing. It just flew over the fleet and roared twice, but these two roars scared hundreds of people to death.

It was precisely because the dragon did nothing that the captains were even more terrified. In their opinion, this dragon was far more terrifying than that damn sea monster.

Chapter 93: Business Alliance... Business Alliance: They were completely wiped out

The Commercial Union’s fleet lacks mages. After all, out on the boundless ocean, even mages have to swallow their pride and express their respect for the wrath of nature.

The pirates have always believed this and are proud of it.

Therefore, after discovering that those damn sea monsters actually appeared in large numbers and showed an attitude of obvious obedience to the elves, it was natural that some defenses would be broken.

After all, there has always been a legend in the sea that sea monsters are the true descendants of the sea god, and whoever can get the help of sea monsters is the true darling of the sea.

Breaking through defense is not only physical, but also mental.

"In short, a place like Thousand Reef Bay cannot be entered by large ships, let alone sea monsters. If we were not familiar with the underground waterways here, even we would not be able to drive a ship in here for repairs."

"Even we are like this, not to mention those damn elves, they are just a bunch of landlubbers!"

"Can this group of landlubbers get help from the Mist Executioner?!"

The result of the captains' discussion was that this place was impregnable and easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it was a hard nut to crack. The elves' fleet was not very large, so it was impossible for them to chew this hard nut.

After cursing the damn elves and drinking too much, everyone except the two captains who were on duty fell into a deep sleep.

On the isolated island in the ocean, there seemed to be no other sound except the sound of waves hitting the beach.

Under the dim moonlight, a group of black shadows appeared silently on the beach of Qianjiao Bay. At the same time as they appeared, a thin mist began to spread over this not very large island. Then, due to the darkness and the fog, the pirate soldiers who were on night watch did not notice the infiltration of this group of people.

Naturally, they are the sea creatures and the sea monsters that have been "corrupted by order".

After being shocked and corrupted by Aenarion's lonesome attack, these former subordinates of the sea god have completely surrendered to the Phoenix Court. Their loyalty is even greater than that of the sea dwellers and can be compared directly with that of the moon dwellers.

After all, it was really "corrupted" a lot.

After learning that the navy of the Commercial Alliance was going to attack the Phoenix Court, these sea monsters naturally decided to fight without hesitation, and because of their extremely high loyalty, they were also tasked with monitoring those sea people.

In a kingdom of elves, monsters are more loyal than elves. How can this be justified?

This time, there are a total of 20 sea monsters and 20 sea creatures involved in the infiltration mission. In addition to marking the location for the bombardment, their task is also to find the entrance and exit.

At that time, it would only take the bombardment of the Elf Fleet to destroy most of the warships of the Commercial Combined Fleet. After all the threatening warships of the humans were destroyed, only two warships would be needed to watch the exit of Thousand Reef Bay.

Haikou has successfully completed the mission. At that time, the pirates can choose whether to go out or not. Anyway, the elves will not go to the island for hand-to-hand combat, and the Phoenix Royal Court Navy’s mission is not to occupy this island.

In this way, silently, the elves eliminated the sentries one by one, the warehouses storing supplies and ammunition were poured with flammable and explosive fuel, and even the black port where the pirates stored their warships was located by the elves.

But these pirates were veterans who had lived on the edge of a knife after all. Even though the mist had numbed their perception and vigilance, the elves' desire to investigate their most important Black Harbor eventually attracted their attention.

The sound of gunfire rang out instantly, and the pirates who discovered the enemy's infiltration immediately fired warning shots. After causing enough noise, the pirates in charge of keeping watch did not care about the situation that the enemy was strong and they were weak, but fearlessly rushed towards the reconnaissance team composed of elves and sea monsters with scimitars and pistols.

Such bravery should not be underestimated. The sea creatures immediately used crossbows to kill the pirates who tried to stop them. After realizing that they were exposed, several reconnaissance teams on the island immediately adopted the backup plan that had been discussed.

Exposing important locations in advance allows the Elf Navy to launch bombings, while the reconnaissance team advances towards Black Harbor, evacuating the island through Black Harbor while guiding its specific location.

Most of the captains were attracted by the deafening roar.

When they saw the elves' crossbows accurately destroying warehouses storing all kinds of important materials, and saw that damn dragon hovering in the sky and constantly washing the pirates' camp hidden in the dense forest with its dragon breath, all the captains showed looks of despair.

In just one night, the pirate fleet finally died in name only. Only three ships were left intact, almost all the supplies were damaged, and more than half of the personnel were killed. This fleet, which was highly expected, finally had to declare that it had lost its combat effectiveness. But this was not the worst. The elven warships that had obtained the specific location of the Black Harbor were guarding the entrance to the Black Harbor. Anyone who came out would be absolutely annihilated.

Without having a proper naval battle with the elves, the navy of the Commercial Union was almost wiped out by the elves by blocking the springs. To be honest, this is really unfair. In a proper naval battle, the two forces would probably be evenly matched, and even with the assistance of sea monsters, the elf navy would not gain much advantage. It can only be said that these pirates were scared, and their superstition made them passively slack off and wait and see, and passive defense is often a dead end.

It has been a month since Clemena received the news that the navy of the Commercial Union had lost its combat capability. During this month, the elven army has advanced greatly, and the humans outside the castle have been beaten to pieces, as if humans simply cannot defeat the elves in a field battle.

No one knows when the elves' fighting power became so wild. When the two sides encounter each other, when humans fail to deploy their formations and the elves successfully deploy their formations, humans will be beaten. But when both sides deploy their formations at the same time, humans will still be beaten. Even if the artillery of the human army has been working hard to output, it still cannot change the inequality between the two sides in the field battle, but will attract the elf cavalry or giant eagles to attack back and forth.

After failing in the field battle, they naturally had to rely on defending the city. Now, the temporary fortress of the Allied Forces Headquarters had gathered about 40,000 people. It was so crowded that there was no quality of life at all. Even the mages with the best lives felt very uncomfortable.

Of course, all of this is not the most important, or at least not the most important in Clemena's view. In front of her stood three mages in robes made of gorgeous fluorescent silk, and the status of these three mages was not inferior to hers.

Three of the 12 seats in the Magic Society, the status of any of the 12 seats is equivalent to any city lord in the seven cities. They are at the top of the mages and at the top of human beings. Even Clemena has to put away her arrogance for them.

Chapter 94: Clementine the Desperate

Looking at Clemena who saluted them respectfully, the two mages had arrogance on their faces.

It's natural for mages to look down on each other, but it's rare to see two mages as arrogant to such an extent.

"Clemena, we are here to hold you accountable!"

The first sentence made Clemena's forehead vein jump.

Ignoring Clemena's drastically changed expression, the two seat mages continued to persist.

"Because of your poor command, everyone's assets have been damaged to varying degrees, and the primary person responsible for this is naturally you!"

"You must be responsible for these losses!"

"It is your stupidity that has led to the coalition's continuous failures!"

"The Magic Society is already considering revoking your position as city lord. This is a punishment for your incompetence. But the treatment of you goes far beyond this. The society is still studying the specific plan to deal with you."

This series of words made Clemena's face turn pale.

Who came up with the idea of ​​attacking the elves?

I haven’t learned it yet!
