The Witcher: Elemental Lords
#175 - Interception
"Kazzak is the most outstanding of the younger generation in Huazi City. It seems that the light on him is about to be replaced by you, Archmage Dolle," Fane said with a faint smile.
Dolle wasn't carried away by Fane's words. He lowered his head slightly and said, "I hope you and your soldiers can publicize this matter as little as possible. I don't want to be noticed because of this."
Fane was a little surprised. What young person doesn't like to show off?
"Alright, I'll keep it a secret for you, for as long as I can. Archmage Lamb has already returned. Let's go back now. It seems the road back isn't safe," Fane suddenly hinted.
Dolle frowned.
Back in the carriage, after greeting Archmage Lamb, the convoy slowly moved forward and soon disappeared into the night.
After about an hour, the convoy arrived at a slope, stopped, and began to set up camp.
At this time, Lamb had already discovered that Dolle possessed a storage item, and was somewhat surprised. Where did this guy buy it?
Dolle's storage item had an invisibility function, and he hadn't figured out what it was.
But Lamb didn't ask, as it was all a matter of chance.
Soon, it was the next morning.
Dolle had just woken up from meditation when he felt the ground shaking, as if a large number of horses were coming from a distance, and in great numbers.
Walking out of the tent and looking into the distance, he saw a team of about a hundred people rushing towards them from the other side of the slope.
This team had no flags, no badges, not even anything symbolic.
Seeing this, Dolle was slightly stunned. At this time, Fane, who had long sensed this, began to blow his whistle to gather the troops. By the time Dolle came out, he was already fully armed, holding a greatsword in his hand, standing beside him with a serious expression.
Dolle looked at Fane, "This is what you meant by not safe."
Fane nodded and said, "I heard the news, but I don't know who they are from. These soldiers aren't very strong. Let's go and intercept them first." After speaking, he summoned the soldiers and prepared to meet them.
Dolle looked back at Lamb's tent. He hadn't gotten up yet.
The soldiers quickly assembled. This time, they were fully armed, holding spears in their hands, and all mounted their horses.
This was the cavalry, the cavalry of Huazi City.
When they moved out, those miscellaneous soldiers were already less than two hundred meters away from them. Dolle noticed that the other party had no intention of stopping at all, and charged straight at them.
Although Fane's side started later, they were faster. Dou Qi gradually emerged from their bodies, connecting them with the horses under their crotches, uniting man and horse. Soon, their speed surpassed the opponent's.
When everyone picked up their spears and unleashed their Dou Qi, Dolle knew that the other side had already lost.
When the two torrents collided, like a meat grinder, the miscellaneous soldiers were instantly overturned, and the small team of only twenty people pierced through them.
Corpses hung on the spear tips, horses trampled on human blood, and severed limbs appeared everywhere.
Dolle raised an eyebrow. The imperial cavalry seemed pretty good.
He thought of the Northern Kingdom, wondering what their cavalry charge, known as the strongest in the West Ring Continent, would be like.
The torrent rolled back and forth twice until the last miscellaneous soldier fell.
The soldiers began to clean up the battlefield, and Fane rode towards this side alone.
He was covered in blood and minced meat, his expression calm, and a strong aura of bloodlust emanated from his body. He quickly stood in front of Dolle.
Seeing Dolle's expression, which showed no reaction at all, Fane was a little surprised. He thought this little wizard would be frightened.
He bowed slightly and smiled, "These miscellaneous soldiers have been dealt with."
Dolle also smiled and said, "I didn't expect that the director of the logistics department would have such a beautiful tactical strike."
Fane showed a proud smile, "First, I am a nobleman, second, I am a true knight, and third, I am the director of the logistics department."
Dolle nodded.
At this time, Lord Lamb walked out of the tent. He didn't even look over there and said faintly, "It's time to go, speed up a bit, maybe we'll encounter some interesting things on the road."
Before Lamb's words fell, a blue light flew along the ground from the distant sky towards this side.
At this time, everyone was on high alert. Being able to fly meant that the other party was at least a Level 3, someone who had mastered the Levitation spell.
Dolle only glanced at the light and then looked at Lamb, only to see Lamb frown, as if showing a look of disgust.
"Is this an acquaintance?"
Lamb turned his head and said, "Fane, take your people and leave, at least ten kilometers away."
Fane's face was extremely ugly at this time. Hearing this, he didn't say a word, directly mounted his horse, and went into the distance, whistling as he went.
In the distance, those soldiers heard the whistle and immediately began to assemble. Soon, a torrent of troops went into the distance.
Lamb looked at Fane's receding figure and breathed a sigh of relief. He turned his gaze and looked at Dolle, "Don't be afraid, this is…"
Dolle's gaze was very calm, even a little curious, not afraid at all.
Lamb blinked. This child's heart is really big.
"The one who's coming is Roy, the Vice-Dean of the Dark Academy. He has a grudge against our academy. This time, he should be here to intercept me."
Dolle lowered his head, "Huazi City, Fengxu City, Luoyan City, the three sides are competing. Whoever creates the antidote first will win this war, but I don't think I'm the first person to create the antidote?"
He was a little puzzled.
Lamb smiled and said, "Indeed, you are not. The reason I brought you here this time is just to attract their attention."
Dolle's brows furrowed immediately.
He was being used as bait! Doesn't that mean that what he'd been doing for the past few days had been for nothing?
He didn't like this kind of behavior very much. It was too bad.
He glanced at Lamb and said, "Can I slip away now?"
"Can you slip away?" Lamb asked with amusement.
The other party was a Level 3 wizard, where could he, a Level 2 wizard, run to? Moreover, they were specifically coming for the two of them, would they let them go easily?
Dolle said expressionlessly, "If you hold him back, then I can slip away, right?"
"What if there's more than one person coming?"
Dolle lowered his head and said indifferently, "Seems like it makes sense. Then let's wait and see."
The blue light was very far away. By the time the two had finished speaking, it had already reached a position three or four kilometers away from them.
At this time, the personnel of Fane's convoy had already run into the distance, and were still running further away.
The blue light seemed to only care about whether Lamb was here or not, and didn't care about them at all, rushing straight towards them.
Soon, the blue light landed on the ground fifty meters away from the two. The light dissipated, revealing two figures, a middle-aged man and a young man.
The middle-aged mage was wearing a magic robe of the same standard as Lamb, emitting amazing magical fluctuations. In his hand was a magic staff as tall as a person. At the top of the magic staff was a delicate purple gem the size of a fist, looking crystal clear and luxurious, a wonderful wave emanating from it. His figure was very tall, and his forehead was very broad, seeming to be full of wisdom.
The young man was also wearing a magic robe, but the specifications were smaller. He was also holding a slightly inferior magic staff in his hand. Unlike the middle-aged mage, the young man was sharp and his eyebrows were unusually fierce.
Looking at Lamb and Dolle, both were empty-handed and wearing ordinary clothes, the difference was obvious.
When Lamb saw this person, he immediately smiled and greeted him, "So it's Vice-Dean Hegg and his eldest disciple, Louis."
