Chapter 29 Dances with Wolves
Hupan Town is only more than thirty miles away from the Lightning Corps camp, but because they had to transport the wounded and seized supplies, the march was much slower. They arrived at the camp three hours later. It was already dawn.
"We can finally have a good rest!" Roger immediately lay on his own bed in the camp and fell asleep.
He didn't wake up until the night. After Roger woke up, he immediately ordered a military officer to inform him to go to the tent for a meeting.
"Hey, this is really a meeting!" Roger couldn't remember how many meetings he had held since he participated in the war.
The content of the discussion at this meeting was relatively simple. It was probably arranged to arrange who was responsible for reorganizing the surrendered troops, who was responsible for occupying nearby towns, who was responsible for conscription training, etc. In addition, Adams also proposed that the army should have a name. It used to be only one Lightning Army, but now it has reduced at least 30,000 soldiers from the Rock Legion. It is impossible to be called the Lightning Army. In addition, some diplomatic actions should be made. Now all countries on the mainland still believe that the Welsh government is Isle's orthodox government.
Roger was not very interested in these contents, so he had never expressed his opinion. However, Annie obviously didn't want him to keep playing soy sauce at the meeting. After a moment, Annie asked him: "Brother Roger, it's estimated that it will take three days to reorganize. In three days, we will set out to the Broken Soul Castle. What do you think?"
"I have no objection! I really want to have a good rest now." Roger said with a wry smile.
"No problem! Brother Roger, you should just take a holiday these three days! But in three days, you have to find some ways to deal with the Flame Legion." Annie also showed a charming smile on her pretty face, making Roger a little distracted.
"Okay! Then I'll go back and rest first. I haven't practiced for many days, and I'll become unfamiliar if I don't practice it." Roger also smiled and walked out of the big tent.
Roger did not return to his camp at this time, but went straight out of the camp and walked northward. The camp of the Lightning Army was close to the Mist Forest, and as long as he walked north for more than ten miles, it was the area of the Mist Forest. After this period of war and fighting, he felt that he had some new insights in the thief skills. He happened to find those monsters in the Mist Forest to try it out.
During these three days of rare rest time, Roger has been immersed in the assassination practice of using daggers. His fighting skills and insights have been improved rapidly through repeated practices.
Late at night, Roger slowly walked into a place where demon wolves gathered. This was a medium-sized demon wolves pack, with hundreds of demon wolves. Each demon wolves stared at Roger, the uninvited guest who broke into their territory. After a while, the Demon Wolf King let out a roar. At this time, hundreds of demon wolves roared wildly, one by one, pounced on Roger one by one...
Roger passed through the pack of wolves like a floating wind, holding the pair of daggers emitting a faint blue halo in his hands.
After Roger poured his dagger into the wind-type magic, the dagger stabbed faster, and the trajectory of the dagger when it was swung and assassinated became more erratic, making it more difficult for the enemy to judge the direction.
"Chi!" A dark blue dagger with a blue halo flowing in the dark night flashed with a strange blue light. The trajectory of this blue light was very erratic. Every time it flashed, a demon wolf was directly cut off his throat or pierced his heart. The wolf was just a level 4 monster. Among these hundreds of demon wolves, most of them were level 3 monsters, and a small number were level 4 monsters. The only demon wolf king was level 5 monsters. Roger had the strength of a level 6 magician and a thief who had just broken through level 4, so it was easy to deal with these demon wolves.
In order to exercise his thief ability, Roger did not release attack magic to the demon wolf, but used the thief method to hunt the demon wolf. This actually took a huge risk. Not to mention that he was just a level 4 thief, even if he lets the fifth or even sixth thief deal with so many demon wolf, he would probably have a dead end. After all, the heroes could not stand many people. The demon wolf's claws and teeth were very sharp. If Roger's body was caught by the demon wolf's claw, he would probably have torn apart a big bloody mouth. However, the reason why Roger was not afraid was that if the situation was not right, he could immediately use the floating technique to float into the air to avoid the demon wolf's attack.
"Ao!" A demon wolf jumped over quickly, opened its bloody mouth and rushed towards Roger.
Explosion! A blue light flashed by. The demon wolf was divided into two from the forehead to the tail by Roger with a dagger, and fell to the ground in two halves. The blue light dagger, which blessed the wind magic power, was assassinated too fast. It was so fast that all demon wolves could only see the afterimage of the blue light. Most of the demon wolf's attacks were dodged by Roger, and a small part of those who did not dodge were also blocked by the wind barrier.
When Roger killed more than 100 demon wolves without any injury, the large group of demon wolves finally retreated. The demon wolves were originally monsters that were fearless, but they would not do it when facing a strong enemy and rushed forward to die.
"Ao--" At this time, the Demon Wolf King, who had been hiding behind, raised his head and howled. All the Demon Wolfs howled in a low voice and retreated quickly to the depths of the foggy forest. The whimpering sounds of the Demon Wolf pack kept coming from afar, obviously feeling sad and angry at the large number of deaths and injuries of their companions this time.
Roger looked at the corpse of the demon wolf on the ground and said to himself: "It seems that after breaking through the fourth level thief, the assassination speed is more than twice as fast. Moreover, after blessing the wind magic, the trajectory of the dagger makes it difficult for the enemy to judge. Now my fighting spirit also has a blue wind attribute. It seems that level 3 to level 4 is really a huge threshold!"
In the past three days, Roger has conducted research on various aspects such as pulling out daggers, assassination, cutting, and picking. His research direction is to achieve the fastest attack speed, combined with his own understanding of wind elements, so that the attack power can be better strengthened. Now it seems that the effect is indeed significant. From the siege of hundreds of demon wolves, but they cannot hurt Roger's hair, they can see a huge achievement. In the past, Roger did not dare to think that he could not use magic attacks under the siege of hundreds of demon wolves.
"It's time to go back! I guess Annie must be anxious about her sudden disappearance these days!" Roger thought to himself.
