Mount and Blade System: Start from Pioneer Lords

Although they had suspicions in their hearts, they had not been confirmed, so suspicions remained just that.

"Magic crystal mine, we're here for the magic crystal mine."

Heather said without hesitation.

As selfish Drow elves, betrayal was effortless for them, as simple as eating and drinking.

As long as they could survive, they would offer up anything, even their bodies, without hesitation.

Of course, there was another reason she betrayed her companions so quickly.

"Because the magic crystal mine concerns whether we can return to the surface."

Heather stopped there, clearly at the limit of what she would reveal.

Li Wei didn't take her word for it, but looked at the other three Drow elves, who nodded in agreement.

"So, everything connects." The lord tapped the table. "You can only send a small number of Drow to the surface for some reason, and your mission to return to the surface is to find magic crystal mines that can allow all of you Drow to return to the surface... no..."

Li Wei spoke while observing the Drow elves' faces: "...accurately speaking, it should be to open a passage. The magic crystal mine concerns whether you can open a passage back to the surface! You happened to hear that there was news of a magic crystal mine here, and then you rushed over with your people to seize it, right?"

"Lord, your wisdom is not inferior to your insurmountable strength." Heather nodded.

She couldn't actively say certain information mixed with certain words, but she could admit what others said without hesitation.

This war had no profound strategic arrangements, just a simple plunder.

"You are very honest, and honesty is a valuable trait." Li Wei drew his long sword, and before Heather could react, a flash of sword light severed the hemp ropes binding her hands and feet.

Heather was terrified by the blade that brushed past her skin, and just as she was about to open her mouth to curse, she realized the precariousness of her situation before things became irreversible, and swallowed it back.

She just looked at the lord with a bit more resentment in her eyes.

"Li Wei?" Flynna looked over.

Releasing a spellcaster like that was definitely not something a qualified superior would do.

"If they don't want to become the giant rocks from daytime, they better not cast spells in front of me."

Li Wei waved it off.

After so many contacts with these priests, Li Wei discovered that these spellcasters were completely different from the mages who instantly cast forbidden spells in his imagination.

Casting a spell had a long pre-casting animation, long enough for him to kill them hundreds of times, especially for more powerful spells, the pre-casting was even more severe.

Li Wei was no longer the ignorant bumpkin he once was, and after removing the filter, these spellcasters were just so-so.

As long as he got close, they weren't any harder to kill than goblins or kobolds.

"Just be careful." Flynna nodded and said nothing more.

The strength of this Highcliff Castle lord was obvious to all, and there was no need to worry about these Drow priests casting spells in front of him.

"By the way." The night was getting late, and Li Wei was a little sleepy, preparing to ask one last question before going back to sleep.

"Among the Drow elves who came this time, besides the four of you and those who died, are there any other spellcasters?"

Although he had taken out the opponent's spellcasting group during the day, he couldn't rule out the possibility that there were other spellcasters who hadn't appeared.

"Um... there is also a male priest named Leon." Heather thought for a moment and said.

To be honest, they didn't think much of this male priest named Leon. If he hadn't asked specifically, they wouldn't have remembered him.

"Then why didn't he attack the city walls with you?"

"He took people to stay in the Shadow Forest on his own initiative." Heather said matter-of-factly.

"Stay in the Shadow Forest?" Li Wei realized something was wrong.

No wonder he didn't encounter anyone guarding the Shadow Forest when he passed through it. This Drow priest named Leon definitely had a magic to hide himself like Mai Sha, and hid the team he led.

But what was the purpose of not blocking them?

"Crap! His real target is Foggello behind us!" Li Wei was shocked, his face darkened, and he slammed the table, looking at Heather: "Why didn't you say so earlier?!"

Heather blinked, looking very innocent: "You came here through the Shadow Forest unscathed, we thought you had solved them all."

"Damn it, no wonder I haven't seen bonfires and smoke rising from the outskirts of the Shadow Forest until now." Li Wei's face was very ugly.

If Foggello was blocked, it would mean that Skye at the front would have to face the wilderness coalition's attack alone.

And the troops he commanded, including the Panta warriors, only numbered around 1,100.

The elves almost failed to defend the city with more than 1,000 people, let alone Skye with only 1,000 people, and he was fighting a field battle.

Earlier, due to the heavy snow, his vision was blocked, so even with a telescope, Li Wei couldn't observe the situation behind the wilderness coalition, and thought that Skye had already held it.

Foggello also brought a large army to support, forming a two-pronged strategic deployment with him.

Now it seems that there is a question mark behind this.

Perhaps the reality was different from what they thought, maybe Foggello quickly solved the male Drow priest who attacked them and successfully joined forces with Skye.

But they didn't dare to gamble. If the squad led by Skye was wiped out by the wilderness coalition first, it would cause a series of chain reactions.

A two-pronged attack would also turn into being cut off from support by the other side, and they would be left without help.

Li Wei and Flynna looked at each other, and could see the solemnity on each other's faces.

"Li Wei..."

"Flynna..."

"Never mind, you speak first." Li Wei put the quill on the table.

"We don't have enough capital to gamble that Foggello has already joined forces with Skye, or even to think the worst, if Skye has held on from day to now is still a question." Flynna's face was very ugly.

"Although the wilderness coalition has a large number of people, Skye and the others are not weak. Besides the Panta warriors, there is also the experienced spellcaster Fugin, so there should be no problem holding on until now." Li Wei seemed to be giving Flynna confidence, but wasn't he also comforting himself.

Before Flynna could reply, he continued to speak quickly: "Flynna, you stay here to prevent them from attacking the city at night, I will have my people stay to assist you, and I will take people to rescue Skye."

"How many people are you going to take?" Flynna asked.

After all, too many people would slow down the march and make it difficult to hide their tracks, while too few people would have a negligible effect on the battle.

Li Wei smiled mysteriously and looked at Heather, who was acting like it was none of her business, "Just take her!"

"Ah?" x3

Three exclamations sounded at the same time.

"Li Wei, I really hope my ears have deceived me, and that what you said about taking people means taking one person, and a newly captured Drow priest at that!" Flynna rubbed her eyebrows, looking helpless.

Aishe Windwhisper next to her finally spoke: "Sir Li Wei, not to mention how much of a role you can play by going alone, you can't put yourself in danger alone."

"At this time, every bit of strength is precious."

She looked worried, thinking that this baron was probably crazy.

She admitted that this handsome human in front of her was the strongest person she had ever seen in her life, but that was far from enough for him to try to fight the opponent alone.

Although Heather didn't say anything, her eyes clearly agreed with the other two's views.

She didn't have any thoughts of pretending to surrender and then taking the opportunity to return to the wilderness coalition.

So she was extremely resistant to Li Wei's decision to go to support her alone.

"First, Flynna, your ears have not deceived you, I have indeed decided to take only this Drow elf."

"Second, the strength of the troops has been precisely calculated, and the most is to take one person, no more."

Seeing his serious look, Aishe had to believe that it was indeed precisely calculated, so precise that he could only take one person...

"In an emergency, we must act expediently, and this matter is settled." Li Wei directly set the tone for this matter.

Looking at the stubborn muscle in front of her that eight cows couldn't pull back, Flynna once again experienced how difficult it was to persuade this Highcliff Castle lord, and could only helplessly agree, and handed a ring to the lord.

With the addition of the Highcliff Castle warriors, the city wall was defended again, the tribe did not have to be destroyed, the elves treated this group of allies who came from afar with the best food, and the atmosphere in the tent was as lively as a festival.

"They eat really well," Mil and Zart sat side by side, spreading butter on the delicate bread with a butter knife, thought about it, and added a third steak, after taking a bite, he said vaguely: "The elves' obsession with perfection is indeed recognized by everyone."

"It's not bad." Zart was even more exaggerated, with a bear paw larger than the plate in front of him, covered with a whole bottle of honey.

"I have something to go out for a while, during this time you listen to Mil's command." The lord opened the curtain and walked in, followed by four Drow priests.

The Fedd warriors and orc warriors stood up with a "pop", and there was a shaking of the ground, overturning a pile of chairs and benches.

"Sit."

Before the elves could react, the Highcliff Castle warriors began to eat and drink happily again.

"There's honey bear paw? Zart, you bear thing, didn't you notify me, the lord, and wanted to swallow it all alone?!"

Looking at the lord who snatched the plate and chewed, Zart opened his mouth, looking aggrieved, and finally could only helplessly choose to receive another serving.

But he got the reply that there were no more bear paws, like a bolt from the blue hitting his head, he returned to his seat dejectedly, gnawing on green onions with soybean paste, looking at the lord who was eating with a mouth full of oil with a resentful face.

In a few strokes, a huge bear paw was eaten by Li Wei, he wiped his mouth, and instructed the final matters.

"These three Drow priests, Mil, you send someone to watch over them, remember to gag their mouths, you are responsible for commanding the entire team when I am not here, and Zart will assist you."

"Yes, sir." Mil nodded.

Although he wanted to know where his brother-in-law was going, he didn't ask any more questions.

"Boss, aren't you taking me?" Zart looked at him eagerly.

"You silly thing stay here and guard the city for a few days first." Li Wei waved his hand and got up to leave, suddenly remembered something and then said:

"By the way, remember to use a handkerchief to gag their mouths, don't use stinky socks, it's embarrassing."

These words made the three Drow priests who stayed behind feel moved.

It would be better to kill them than to gag their mouths with stinky socks.

Due to the location of the gap, the elven warriors used trees and weeds, and finally consolidated it with water, successfully repairing an ice wall with not low defensive power.

Plus, it would take a lot of time to open the heavy city gate. Considering that only two people were leaving the city, the lord finally got a speed drop package and was hung down the city wall with a hemp rope.

"Lord, are we really just going like this?"

Heather looked at the handsome young man next to her with a long sword hanging on his waist, wearing sophisticated leather armor, and wearing exquisite deerskin hunting boots, blinking her eyes.

Until now, she still couldn't believe that this human really only planned to go to rescue one person.

Then she thought of something, and suddenly put her face closer, her face full of playfulness: "Lord, you don't want to elope with me, do you?"

Her tone was charming, making people unable to help but daydream.

Pa!

"Don't get so close suddenly, scare the duke." Li Wei directly sent a big slap up, without any indulgence.

But he had to lament in his heart that knight novels did not deceive him, Drow female elves, one by one, were very slutty.

It is said that these female Drow also raise male pets for them to have fun.

The more handsome the appearance, the more they like it, just like the roles are reversed, these female Drow have become hooligans who tease others.

The highest-ranking matriarch even raises hundreds of male pets at a time, indeed only tired cattle, no ruined fields.

Covering her hot right face, Heather looked resentful.

As a female Drow priest, her status in Drow society is considered to be in the middle class, and those male Drow dare not look her in the eye when they encounter her, as humble as a dog she raises.

This was the first time she had been beaten by a man, and it was her extremely proud face that was beaten, and it was impossible to say that there was not a trace of hatred.

The lord didn't care what she was thinking, just a prisoner, in the future, she would just be a member of the Highcliff Castle spellcasting slave group, as long as she could be used by him.

He didn't care whether a forced melon was sweet or not, what he ate in his mouth was his own.

Without the slightest thought of cherishing jade, the lord rudely grabbed her slender little hand, aimed in one direction, and started sprinting at full speed.

Shua!

His speed was extremely fast, so fast that people could only see a shadow and the snow raised behind him, and... a humanoid doll flying in the wind like a kite in his hand.

Aishe finally knew what Li Wei said earlier about the precise calculation of the strength of the troops, and looked at the figure that flew away quickly under the city wall in a daze.

"Um... he has always been like this... unconventional." Flynna said blankly, trying to explain something.
