Emperor of Arcane

Chapter 239: Soldiers are expensive and quick (1 update)

July 5th. {What? You don’t know yet|Read COM, read the chapters without mistakes|Hurry up and Google them}

The scarlet moon has not yet set.

The entire dark forest was deserted.

Only occasional murderous roars could be heard, and soon everything calmed down again.

A slow cool breeze blew on Matthew's cheek.

Seeing that the light power lingering around him disappeared again, Matthew did not hesitate to use the scroll to cast a spell:

Fourth-level spell - group acceleration!

The power of lightness enveloped every soldier, making their bodies lighter and their steps faster.

All the soldiers were silent, breathing steadily as they walked through the dark forest.

Yaya flies in the sky and can see any accidents and movements in time.

There were cavalry from the inspectorate standing guard all around, and they had "silencers" attached to them.

Silent march.

Old John, who was leading the team, had a little bit of disbelief in his eyes.

He had never thought that an army would advance so quickly in such a way.

Because there has never been a spell caster willing to release precious spells on the auxiliary soldiers.

The lord just did it, without hesitation and quite resolutely!

The scrolls consumed along the way alone amounted to seven to eight thousand gold coins, just to get to the location of the Troll Castle four hours before dawn.

Just like what the Lord did before, take the lives of all soldiers into your heart!

Having such a lord is simply a blessing from the goddess!

The soldiers hurried on, and 10 kilometers behind them, densely packed adventurers were rushing forward quickly.

They have received the bounty mission from the Gulf Territory, as some old adventurers said:

"The difficulty of the mission will not be very high, and the reward will be very generous."

The adventurers felt a special sense of pleasure as they watched the densely packed group of companions roam freely in the usually dangerous dark forest.

If you just travel happily all night and arrive at the designated place, there is a high probability that there will be no fight.

Each of them can get 5 gold coins!

Even in the Gulf Territory, where mission rewards are very generous, most mid-level adventurers still need about three days to earn this amount of money.

Moreover, they are usually members of adventuring parties who capture trolls and succeed.

For most novice adventurers, making this kind of money is not easy.

They usually take half a month and sometimes take risks.

Most adventurers have tasted the sweetness of the bay.

Today, it’s a particularly sweet pastry.

The journey takes about 6 hours.

By deliberately "clearing" the road in the past two days, we successfully avoided the location of the troll colony.

Then he followed a hidden path and quickly climbed up the mountain wall.

Finally, they stopped in a dense forest and entered an underground hole that had been dug long ago.

"Everyone drinks a bottle of konjac potion."

Matthew gave the order and took the lead in drinking a bottle of konjac potion, closing his eyes and entering a meditative state directly.

The other soldiers all obeyed the order and quickly fell asleep after drinking the konjac potion.

Leon, who had been waiting here for a long time, carefully checked the status of each soldier, and was shocked in his heart by the Lord's arrangement.

"Before the war begins, we will conduct simulated combat exercises."

"Arrange adventurers in advance and clear the trouble on the road."

"Arrange the kobolds to dig out a hidden resting place."

"After making these prerequisite preparations."

"March in the middle of the night and even have time to rest..."

The various arrangements were beyond his imagination.

Leon just imagine that he becomes the enemy of the lord.

There is a great possibility that you will be targeted and killed without realizing it...

Putting aside the distracting thoughts for the time being, Leon focused on inspection and patrol.

Occasionally, I look at the troll fortress hidden in the trees in the distance, and I feel infinite emotion in my heart.

He will be like a lord in the future.

Anticipate the enemy first, strike with thunder!

Matthew opened his eyes calmly, and all his mana had been fully restored.

He turned his head and met Leon's slightly bloodshot eyes:

"How is it going?"

"Everything went according to plan."

"The first two batches of trolls have left the castle respectively. The total number is 1872."

"They are 2 hours and 3 hours away from the castle respectively."

"The castle's defense force currently has 678 people..."

"The troll community below the mountain has been surrounded."

"The Bait Alice team is also in place, and they "captured" 10 trolls."

"The soldiers finished eating an hour ago..."

"..."

Leon reported every piece of information to Matthew in detail. Just understanding and collecting this information was enough for him to make great progress.

Seeing that the time had come, Matthew couldn't help but take a deep breath, patted Leon on the shoulder and said with a smile:

"Rest for 4 hours. When you wake up, you need to take over the defensive tasks."

After hearing Matthew's "order", Leon nodded in surprise. He could hear the trust in him from the Lord's tone.

This special feeling has always inspired him to move forward!

Matthew walked out of the underground cave, glanced at the sleeping kobolds, and nodded to the long-awaited Yaya.

The latter opened his wings excitedly, waited for Matthew to climb up behind him, flapped his wings, and flew out lightly.

At the moment of takeoff, the scales on Yaya's body changed rapidly and blended with the color of the entire sky.

This is exactly what Matthew taught Yaya, the expertise from the mutant swamp giant crocodile Lao Liu.

Advanced feat - Camouflage LV1, gradually blending into the surrounding environment, gaining +3 concealment.

A view from the sky of the castle below.

Matthew repeated the reconnaissance three times and confirmed that it was almost the same as planned. He asked Yaya to fly to the hiding place and directly informed the other side:

"Start the decoy plan and prepare others to attack!"

Once this order was issued, it quickly spread to the ears of all soldiers.

Full of confidence, they were making final preparations.

The battle is about to begin!

They will definitely win!

Troll Castle.

The warm sunshine shone on the patrolling trolls, making them warm.

Every troll soldier stood there bored.

They are afraid of the horrific punishment of the troll priests and dare not move around.

However, the Troll Castle has not encountered a decent attack in decades, making them completely depressed.

It's nothing more than troll soldiers having such thoughts.

To the north of them is the base camp of the Rotten Moss clan, with nearly 100,000 elite troll soldiers.

On the left and right sides are hunting grounds that they have controlled for hundreds of years, and no changes in the vegetation or trees can escape their awareness.

To the south is a steep slope, and the thick walls prevent any possibility of attack.

The daily task of the trolls is to select the area in the Troll Valley in the south to find the next hunting location.

Only by hunting those "disobedient" trolls and sacrificing these captives to the troll priests whose moods fluctuated could one live a slightly better life on weekdays.

They can also take this opportunity to pass the boring time.
