Chapter 754 743. Magic pattern
The third day Viru left the town of Dodan.
The hunting of monsters in Dodan Town was interrupted as a large number of monsters poured into the valley.
In the past few days, more monsters that have fallen into madness have rushed into the Dodan Canyon. Many of the monsters gathered under the north wall are rare species in the deep forest. There are more than two hundred city guards holding crossbows at the top of the city. Warcraft that climbed up the forty-meter-high city wall were ruthlessly shot and killed.
Thirty-five bed crossbows aimed at the large-sized second-level monsters in the group of monsters under the city wall.
A large number of monsters crowded under the city wall.
The gate of the northern city wall was surrounded by a group of moonblade fire wolves. Fireballs continued to explode at the entrance of the gate. Burning fire.
All the ropes of the iron fence of the city gate hole have been burned, and the iron fence weighing several thousand pounds is firmly stuck in the city gate hole, with raging flames burning around it.
Completely block the only passage from the city wall to the North Canyon.
The garrison in the town of Dodan cannot go out to fight.
The city defense guards can only retreat to the top of the city.
Almost half of the monsters shot on the top of the city were ruthlessly torn into pieces when the group of monsters charged the city wall.
The infantry stood at the top of the city, holding some anchors and constantly throwing them at the herd of beasts, but these infantry could only throw them tens of meters away, and it would be difficult for the monsters that were further away to anchor, and they could only be reduced to helplessly. The blood food of the monster group.
The situation in Dodan Town became more and more difficult, and Suldak finally saw the scene of a large number of monsters gathering in the city.
The corpses of monsters were constantly being pulled up to the top of the city by anchor hooks. The corpses of some low-level monsters piled up on the top of the city, and they would be transported to the barracks by the auxiliary soldiers at the top of the city.
Seeing that the monsters could not climb the north city wall, some monsters tried to rush up the thorny mountain, but they could not pass through the mountainside covered with stone thorns. Some monsters got stuck in the gaps between the stone thorns, and some monsters accidentally fell from the cliff. The screams echoed in the valley.
…
Suldak found that the merchants and nobles in the town had their eyes on the rewards on the merit exchange list, and immediately ordered the logistics department of the garrison camp to prohibit the outflow of these materials.
These advanced leather armor and magic weapons in the barracks did not flow outside.
There are already squadron leader-level fighters with ice rhino horn blades in their hands, standing in the team is particularly eye-catching.
Maybe in such a monster siege, it will not be noticed by the monsters, or there is still the breath of the ice horned rhinoceros on it, and some weak monsters are unwilling to approach.
But when fighting other legions in the future, these warriors with ice horn rhinoceros blades will definitely be the focus of the archers.
The thousands of reinforcements brought by the deputy head of the Chester Army finally caught up with the last sip of soup. Although they did not accumulate too many merits individually, they are still large in number. After all, they are still on the merit exchange list Exchanged two sets of ice horn rhino leather armor.
Because Sulda restraintly stipulates that every 100 merit points can be exchanged for one gold coin, the merit points can be circulated almost without hindrance in the military camp.
Suldak's high-level leather armor and healing potions listed on the merit exchange list that can be used as magic pattern construction base materials were sold out immediately.
On the contrary, although those magic weapons are also wanted, they are not so enthusiastic. After all, such weapons can be seen everywhere in the magic weapons business in Bena City.
In the herd of beasts under the northern city wall, the thorn-tailed crystal lion and the two-headed snake lizard have already appeared. The strength of these two kinds of monsters is at the peak of the second level, and their leather is also very popular in the magic market.
The guards at the head of the city even expected them to attack the north wall together like other monsters.
Suldak asked the four captains in the barracks to take turns stationing on the city wall.
The four captains in the barracks are: Captain Andrew, who is in charge of the cavalry battalion from the barren land, Captain Samira, who is in charge of the reinforcements of 200 archers and the city defense brigade, and Captain Adams, who is in charge of the cavalry reinforcements. The captain and the Gallatin captain who commanded the reinforcements of the heavy infantry regiment.
Among these captains, Andrew, an aboriginal warrior of the Nanai nationality, has the highest reputation.
Everyone in the barracks knew that Andrew was the most powerful confidant of Commander Suldak.
Andrew stepped on the gap between the walls of the city wall with one foot, and looked down the city wall with his probe.
There are still a large number of monsters gathered in the city, and from time to time, ice arrows and wind blades will fly up to the top of the city, hit the wall, and explode into ice powder.
The city defense guards just fired a round of crossbow arrows, killing most of the lizards who were about to climb up the city wall. The infantry hiding behind these city defense guards, avoiding the magic flying over at any time, swiftly threw out the anchor hook, trying Snatch as many lizard beast corpses as possible before they are overwhelmed by the herd rushing up from behind.
A wind blade flew past Andrew's face. He seemed to have calculated the spiral flight trajectory of the wind blade, and he didn't even bother to tilt his head to hide.
Taking advantage of the moment when the monster stopped, Andrew and a cavalry squadron leader beside him sat down against the wall of the city wall. A siege battle of this scale will form a wave every few moments.
The city defense guards should also follow the rhythm of the monsters attacking the city, and take a proper rest.
The squadron leader took out a piece of sauced meat from his arms and handed it to Andrew. He also took out a piece and stuffed it into his mouth. He swallowed it in two mouthfuls, wiped his mouth and drank two sips of water.
Andrew took the sauced meat, seeing that it was hard and sour fire wolf meat, he grinned, and bit the bullet hard.
Tucao to the squadron leader next to him: "You won't pick a better piece... eat this sour fire wolf meat all day long!"
"Hey! I didn't expect to come here with Lord Suldak, and I would vomit after eating meat." The squadron leader wearing a thick full-coverage armor said with great emotion: "When we were starving in the barren land I can't wait to dig out all the grass roots in the soil and boil water to drink..."
Andrew patted the squadron leader on the shoulder and said: "I heard from the boss that a row house is being built in Wall Village. It is estimated that your family has been housed in the row house. Don't worry, our first batch The animal skins have already been shipped back to Bena Province, and it won’t be long before these leather goods will be exchanged for gold coins and sent to Hailansa City, with our continuous material support here, no one in the family will go hungry again.”
The squadron leader lifted the mask on the helmet, and suddenly felt that his breathing was much smoother. He looked up at the blue sky and asked Andrew:
"Captain Andrew, you have been with Commander for so long, and you have accumulated so many merits. Even if you don't reach 30,000, it shouldn't be too much! Have you ever thought about redeeming the magic pattern that tops the merit list? "
Andrew smiled "hehe" and said:
"Me? The boss said these magic patterns are not suitable for me!"
Hearing what Andrew said, the squadron leader's eyes lit up, and he immediately leaned over and asked:
"Do you know what this thing is?"
Andrew took it for granted and said:
"Of course, isn't it written as a magic pattern?"
The squadron leader complained to Andrew with a bitter face: "We just don't understand what the magic pattern is...and we need such a high achievement."
Andrew looked down at the magic pattern armor on his body. If he took off the armor on the top of the city, Suldak would definitely be scolded if he knew it. He could only take off the helmet, tilt his neck, and try his best to Pull down the breastplate a little bit, revealing a little bit of the magic pattern on the chest, saying:
"It's probably such a magic pattern. As far as I know, one of the magic patterns on the merit list belongs to enhancing one's own resilience, the other one belongs to the increase of ice attribute magic power, and the other belongs to enhancing explosive power. In short, they are rare. It’s a good thing to ask for, and these magic patterns are only limited to first-rank fighters, so your bearing capacity should be enough.”
The squadron leader finally realized what those magic lines were, and asked quickly:
"Captain Andrew, do you think those magic patterns are suitable for me?"
Andrew nodded, patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Of course, but you still need to have enough achievements."
Thinking of the list of achievements stating that 30,000 merits are required to exchange for a piece of magic pattern, the squadron leader who came out of the barren land took a deep breath and said: "Now 30,000 merits are equivalent to three One hundred gold coins, captain, how much do you think that magic pattern is worth?"
"Value." Andrew said without hesitation.
…
Adams was born in an aristocratic family in the city of Bena. His father was a third-class viscount. Although he had done nothing in his life, he ran a blacksmith workshop in the city of Bena, so that his family could live a decent life in the city of Bena. life.
Adams' great-grandfather was an aristocratic lord who once owned the territory of five mountains in Colin City. Later, the family declined and moved to Bena City to settle down.
Like other aristocratic young men, Adams chose to continue his studies at Benar Advanced Knight Academy after studying at the Junior War Academy for four years. Squadron leader of a light cavalry squadron of the Thur regiment.
In the past few years, he has been traveling with the Legion to various places, and he has already emerged among the young generals of the Luthor Legion.
If he wasn't good enough, Chester's deputy army chief wouldn't have introduced him to Suldak.
Adams has the most typical Bena uniform figure, sitting in the camp hut, with a set of ice-horned rhinoceros leather armor on the wooden table in front of him.
This set of ice horn rhinoceros leather armor was exchanged by him with 2,000 merit points. After deducting the 300 merit points accumulated by himself, he bought the rest of the merits with gold coins from his cavalry. One's own achievements may not be exchanged for the materials on the list.
Since Captain Adams wants to pay for their own merits with gold coins, almost no one will refuse.
So a set of ice-horn rhinoceros leather armor that can be used as a base material for magic pattern constructions was actually obtained for only seventeen gold coins.
Adams was a little thankful that he had agreed to Chester's deputy army chief to come to Dodan Town. He kept rubbing his hands on the noble badge on his chest, squinting his eyes, and the eyes in his light blue eyes were restrained. Every time he thought seriously, They are all used to touching the badge on their chest with their hands.
Galatin is an old friend of Adams for many years. The two have lived and died together on the battlefield, and their relationship is extraordinary.
He sat opposite Adams, looking at this set of leather armor with some envy. Although this kind of leather armor is not difficult to buy in the magic market, there is absolutely no such high-end leather armor at a low price. Such a set of high-end leather armor A's real value must be at least fifty gold coins.
"Did you find out what the magic pattern marked on the merit exchange list is?" Adams recovered from his thoughts and asked his friend Gallatin.
Gallatin leaned comfortably in the chair, and said to Adams: "I heard that it is a magic pattern, um, it is said that this kind of magic pattern can be printed on the body of a first-rank warrior, just like the magic pattern drawn by the inscriber on the body. "
"The magic pattern drawn on the body can only appear on the second-rank strong man?" Adams sat up straight and asked Gallatin with a look of astonishment.
Gallatin spread his hands out of nowhere and said:
"That's why I say that this kind of magic pattern is a bit different..."
Adams lowered his head and touched the purse at his waist. There were more than 20 magic crystals and dozens of gold coins in it. After careful calculation, he still had some belongings that he could sell. coins.
He looked up at his friend Gallatin, and asked casually:
"Galatin, do you have an idea to take down a magic pattern?"
Gallatin shook his head without hesitation and said:
"If all those achievements are converted into gold coins, it will take three hundred gold coins. I'm not as rich as your pocket."
Adams wiped his hand on the badge on his chest and said only:
"I usually tell you to pay attention to your expenses, don't throw all that money on women's bellies, you don't want to listen to it, do you regret it now?"
Gallatin did not show the slightest remorse. He rolled his eyes and said, "What's the use of regretting? Let's accumulate slowly."
