Destroyer of Ice and Fire
Chapter 244: New Tasks and Nolan's Warnings
“Coming!”
Towards dusk, the Shadow Demon Legion Shepherd Valley Outpost finally welcomed the long-awaited reinforcements and the team of medical technicians responsible for transferring the wounded.
Compared to the already small number of magicians at this outpost, a team of more than twenty magicians appears to have entered the valley in some havoc.
“Nolan? Salina? ”
Excited to come out and look at the reinforcements Erin suddenly saw two acquaintances and shouted in surprise.
“Nathan? ”
Then Erin immediately found out that Nolan and Salina knew each other, were members of the Silver Trout Academy team, and used the "Eye of the Tyrant” in the competition, eventually forcing Lin Lorraine out.
“Erin, Lin Lorraine, why are you here? ”
The sight of Erin and Lynn Lorraine, Nolan and Salina and Nathan suddenly came as a shock.
“We accepted the mission of the Secret Service and came here to reinforce. ”
Erin grinned his head and laughed, "What about you? Aren't only teams from the top eight in the country eligible for this mission? Why are you here? ”
“You look down on people, don't you?” Nolan couldn't help but look at Erin, "I am here because I myself have graduated from the Academy and joined the Nathan Demon Academy team, and Nathan is just like me. ”
“What about Salina?” Erin asked a little tirelessly.
“You son of a bitch, can't you do your job without hitting the top eight in the country?” Salina was also a little struck by Erin, depressed to say, "I was temporarily pulled over. ”
“What brings the top eight teams here? National tournament interrupted? ”
“You don't even know? As a result of this war, the system has changed, and we have to decide whether to win or lose and decide on the final championship in the way we carry out our mission here. ”
“Gaia the Black Necromancer, the Green Snake Technician Team, Ancos the Iron Leaf Ghost... such a formation is blocked, no wonder Salina and Nolan will be eliminated by them in the race. ”
While Erin and Nolan and others were chatting, the Shadow Demon Corps's team of exorcists also had a quick conversation with Zorn and others.
All the team members, including Captain Gig, looked at Erin and Lynn Lorraine with deep incredible eyes.
Most of their team is also from Silver Trout College, and coincidentally, they have fought with Ancos the Iron Leaf Ghost before, so it is clear what strength Ancos and others have.
“What the hell is going on here, and how can there be such a raid near this outpost? ”
Ray looked about the same age as him, but his hair was a little white, Gig asked.
“According to the latest information, the Dragonists still do not want to abandon Fallen Shadow Valley and, in its overall layout, are desperately trying to stop us from attacking the Fallen Shadow Valley. ”
"This time we came from the Kingdom of Dowa with a large number of top magicians, and they all suffered a great deal from the previous large-scale battles, and after finding that the large-scale battles could not be fought against us, they have now completely adopted a zero tactic, with one or two or three teams of magicians guerring outside. ”
“Such tactics can have some effect and, in fragile situations, they can assassinate teams of magicians who drain each other. But it shouldn't do much for overall advancement.” Ray muttered for a moment, then said.
“Of course.” Gig nodded, "So the two most likely factors are that the dragonists have a special operation in Fallen Shadow Valley that makes them unwilling to give up and must be kept alive. The other thing is, they're now losing less money than we are, so they're using this tactic to slow down some of the steps we've always taken to Fallen Shadow Valley, probably waiting for some Bishop-level dragonists to arrive. ”
After a pause, Gig looked at Ray and Zorn and others and added: "Based on the first point, the most likely thing at the moment is that Fallen Shadow Valley may be involved in the evil dragon bloodline, and there may be a sacred arrangement that allows evil dragonists to obtain the evil dragon bloodline. ”
“Or, as the legend suggests, there are special arrangements that can bring the dragon back to life.” The expression on Rui's face has not changed much, but the tone is a bit harsh to add to this sentence.
“So..." Jig glanced at Rui and turned to look at Erin and Lynn Lorraine, looking like they had stopped talking.
Ray couldn't help but look at him. “Why? ”
“In addition to coming to transfer the wounded and replace the guards here, we have also brought new tasks to this unit of you at the dawn of Saints. ”
Gig looked at Ray with some embarrassment, but he said immediately, "I'm guessing this is your first real mission, as planned by the Secret Service, to get you back here, and there's no real expectation of a large number of sudden enemy raids. ”
“New assignment coming? ”
Erin's voice suddenly rang.
Speaking to Nolan and others, he heard the words "new mission” very clearly.
“What, do you think we're just going through a battle where we don't have the strength to carry out new tasks?” Erin looked at Gig's eyes and looked back at Lynn Lorraine. "It doesn't matter. When Lynn Lorraine came, one hand couldn't move. Now even if both hands can't move, he can still fight! ”
“What a fierce war... Erin this guy, I really don't know what fear and danger is. ”
When I heard him say that, a group of people suddenly felt a little silent.
“But..." Haven't seen the battle of Erin, can't help but say something to Gig, who isn't familiar with Erin.
“We will never give up victory. ”
But he just said two words and had been interrupted by Erin's voice, "and while I don't know what Chris and them and Morgan and their squads are doing right now, I do know that they will never give up even in the face of our situation. ”
“What mission?” Ray didn't say much either, just looked straight at Gig and asked.
Since the situation on the battlefield and the situation of the enemy team of magicians on both sides has been changing, and the successor tasks should also be temporarily assigned by key figures in the Special Services Office on the front line, Gig has not taken out any secrets or anything, but has simply deployed a map directly on the ground.
“This is the exact location of Fallen Shadow Valley. ”
Gig dotted one of the most prominent dark purple valleys on the map, lying directly on the side of this map, Erin immediately saw the map surrounding the dark purple valley with countless dense numb red line markings of sheep intestine trails.
“These are what we call evil trails.” Gig's fingers also landed on these red-line marked trails, "these are the usual access routes for evil dragon magicians in Fallen Shadow Valley, and according to the information we currently have, these evil trails are either cliffs or have many traps, the roads are extremely narrow and can only be passed by small teams of magicians, which are not suitable for large groups of technicians. Normally, these dragonists are dispersed from these evil paths. This Fallen Shadow Valley is like a lair, and we're going to attack it, and we're going to have to attack it from countless evil trails at the same time. Now, in order to curb the access and supply of evil dragon technicians and prevent evil dragon technicians from diverting something, it is necessary to block these evil paths first by imposing a substantial siege on Fallen Shadow Valley. ”
“Your task this time is to break into one of the evil paths and block it. ”
“It's actually like taking over one of their outposts, isn't it?” After listening to Gig's introduction, Erin looked up on the map and asked, "Should they be on the same mission as the Dragonbreath Academy that we competed with? ”
“I suppose it should be that they each burst into the vicinity of an evil trail.” Gig nodded looking at Erin.
“Time?” Ray raised his head, asking the simplest two words.
“The anticipated total attack is just five days from now, so ask that the siege of Fallen Shadow Valley be completed on the fourth day, and that you reach this evil trail in four days. ”
“Four days?” Erin didn't feel anything yet, but Ray frowned slightly.
“Yes, the distance from Fallen Valley to here, four days, approaching full speed.” Gig turns his head and looks at Erin and says, “and I have to remind you that there are no detailed maps of the Nan 'an Demon Jungle on the entire continent, only a brief map like this, and although we can figure out the number and orientation of the valley rivers, no one knows what the giant monster stronghold will be along the way. And there are usually Dragonist archers and fighters near the Evil Trail, so this task is not easy for a team of magicians at any level. ”
“If it was an easy task to accomplish, it would not be possible to separate victories for Morgan and his squadrons.” Erin looked at Gig and said, "If you don't dare go on a dangerous mission, can you call a team of magicians? ”
Gig looked at him for a long time without a word.
“This guy is really a natural combat magician! ”
Nolan looked sophisticated and took a deep breath at Erin, who was sure to take the task, "Erin, I have a little reminder that if you compete with a team like Abel College, you have to be careful what they threaten you with. ”
“Watch out for Abel College. What do you mean?” Ellington was stunned.
“The Abbott College team has always had a bad reputation, and they used to plot inappropriately in national competitions.” Nolan looked at Erin and said softly.
“As if that beard had said something similar to me.” Erin stared wide-eyed, grabbed her hair and said.
“Which beard?” Nolan and Salina asked puzzled.
“Ricky from Winter College, how come you don't know each other?” Erin said in surprise.
“Rekay has a little more beard, but he's so young... and you're just talking about big beard, who knows you're talking about Rekay.” Nolan and Salina are speechless.
“Be careful. ”
Gig was looking at Ray at this time, adding emphatically: "According to intelligence, at least Bishop Angenori of the plague is operating in the demonic jungle of South Ann. ”
