Chapter 115: The Battle of Thrall Consular Defense (Part 1)

The mercenaries left happily with the harvest in Saar City.

The tasks they received at the Mercenary Union were related to material collection. In the material shop in Saar City, the mercenaries found all the required task items, and the price was absolutely cheap. With the half-deal offer promised by Leon, it was like a waste of money!

The mercenaries only regretted that they had too little money, otherwise they would have to buy the entire shop short.

Leon personally sent them away. I believe that after these mercenaries returned, news about the Sal Territory would quickly spread throughout the Grey area, and then the Sal City would definitely become lively.

Just as Leon was full of confidence and prepared to do a big fight, bad news came - a large number of swamp water monsters were found in the western part of Thrall, and a higher-level demon race appeared!

After receiving the news, Leon immediately withdrew all the hunting teams and held an emergency military meeting. All the important figures of Thrall were present, including the Uger tribe.

"There are a lot of them, and there are three giant swamp crocodiles discovered by the sentries in our river!" Tien Pi said with a serious expression: "There are still several Naga Banshee!"

The Naga Banshee is a rare race among the demon clan. Like the black elves, they are all women in the entire tribe, half human and half snake bodies, and are born ice water mages.

If you encounter a Naga Banshee in the water, then even ten Iron Sheets will not defeat one of the opponents. The Naga tribe is also the overlord of the Western Everglades.

Of course, the Naga Banshee is not without weaknesses. If they leave the water, their abilities will be much weaker.

This time, the discovery of the enemy's large-scale invasion in advance was attributed to the hippo warriors of the Ug tribe.

Although the Ug tribe is still in the forest beside the waterfall, it has a very close relationship with the city of Saar, and at the request of Leon, sentries were arranged in several main forest rivers.

Since Leon and others helped the Uger tribe repel the sneak attack of the swamp water demon more than two months ago, the enemy has not stopped and frequently used the crisscrossing river channels in the forest to launch attacks, even posing a threat to the hunting team led by Thal.

It can be said that the Swamp Water Demon is the biggest enemy facing Thrall, and now there is a more powerful Naga Banshee.

"Since the swamp water monsters are all present at night and are afraid of the sunlight, the Naga Banshee cannot do without water..." Concordia said in a deep voice: "It is better for us to stay at Saar City at night and look for opportunities to fight back during the day."

Concordia's idea makes sense. Such tactics can make full use of the defensive advantages of Thrall City. The swamp water demons cannot jump to the city wall. As long as they are closely guarded, they will have no gaps to get rid of, and sooner or later they will have to return home.

Leon nodded and said, "Defending Saar City is very beneficial to us, but we have thousands of acres of wheat fields outside the city. If they attack badly destroy the wheat fields to vent their anger, then the hardships of our farm these two months will be in vain, and the food source in the second half of the year will become a big problem."

At present, the grain storage in Saarling is close to the bottom line, and it is entirely due to hunting from the forest and fishing in the Nucang River to make up for the shortcomings.

The rye planted in the cultivated wheat fields will be ripe in less than a month, which can be said to be the hope of the entire tribe for the next half year.

"That's a problem. The trade blockade of our Collinworth has continued. Hunting and fishing alone cannot meet the needs of our territory." Elder Monstein said with a frown.

"So my idea is to take the initiative. The enemy's actions cannot be separated from the river channel, so we will intercept them on the river channel!" Leon punched the table: "Only by crippling them and hurting them, will they know that we are not easy to mess with!"

"Concordia, Rock Hammer, immediately call the battalion and guards to prepare for battle!"

"As for orders, sir!"

Concordia and Rock Hammer immediately stood up and agreed loudly.

Woo! Woo!

The sound of a trumpet of battle sounded for the first time in Thunder Beast Battle Camp. All the soldiers from the Thunder Beast Battle Camp gathered urgently outside the city, and only about a hundred soldiers stayed in Thunder City.

This time, the Thrall could be said to have done all his strength. The Leon Battle Battalion dispatched 700 main soldiers, all 100 soldiers from the Leon Guards participated, as well as the Shaman Elder Monstein and the Mage Aklan fought with the army!

This battle was the first real war that broke out since the establishment of the Thrall Territory. Although it was not large in scale, it was related to the future and destiny of this new territory!

…

The Heishui River, like the Nucang River, also originated from the Great Everglades, but this river first entered the mountains in the northeast direction, then turned to the southeast, and passed through half a Sarling to finally merge into the Nucang River.

The Hei Shui River is an important river in Salling. Its two branches lead to the Ironforge area of ​​the Western Xinjiang Province and the Southwest Province, and is connected to more than a dozen large and small streams, forming a huge water network throughout the western part of Salling.

The swamp water demon uses this river to enter the Sar Territory and threatens the Sar City to the east.

The wide river channel, deep river water, and the black water plants in the river became the greatest help of the water demons. Thousands of swamp water demons led by several Nagas and approached the hinterland of the Sarling.

Unlike the swamp water demon who fears the sun, the Naga Banshee can use spells to create a water mist barrier outside his body to keep his body moist.

This layer of water mist is like their armor, covering the vital parts of their bodies.

Every Naga Banshee has a beautiful appearance, perhaps because of the long-term soaking in the water, their faces are light green, their slender blue eyes flash with gloomy light, and their red lips are as bright as blood, with pointed fangs on both sides, as if they want to choose people at any time.

The most peculiar thing is that their lower bodies and snake tails entrenched on the shuttle boat. The black scales covering the surface appear and disappear in the mist, making people shudder.

The banshees also held a gray staff in their hands. Their talented spell casting ability made every Naga a natural mage and he was not to be underestimated among the demon clan.

The sky gradually darkened, and the setting sun was unable to penetrate the dense canopy of the forest, and could only barely cast a few mottled lights and shadows.

The speed of the shuttle ship slowed down, and swamp water monsters emerged from underwater. The entire river surface was covered with the terrifying figure of the swamp giant crocodile.

A Naga screamed, and the uncontrolled shuttle slowly turned to approach the river bank, and the swamp water demons began to land one after another.

At this moment, a Naga, who was still on the boat, looked at the woods on the side of the river bank, and the fierce light flashed in her blue eyes.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Suddenly, countless feathered crossbows flew out from the woods dozens of meters away, forming a rain of arrows and landing on the swamp water demons who were landing on the shore.

Hiss! ~

A bunch of blood bloomed, and a large area of ​​swamp water demon, caught off guard, suddenly fell down.

Many of the arrows came straight to the three Nagas, but they were bounced away by the mist covered by their bodies. Two of them shouted loudly and swung their staff quickly.

I saw the originally gentle river surging, and silver-white water arrows shot into the woods from the water, with an amazing momentum!

The ambush's attack on the arrow rain was immediately greatly frustrated, and many arrows were shot down directly in the air, and they could no longer pose a threat to the swamp water monsters that landed on the shore.

In the woods, two hundred soldiers holding large shields showed their figures. They raised their shields to cover the archers behind them in time.

Many water arrows hit their shields, making a dull sound of "puff" and "puff", with a very strong power.

These warriors hiding in the woods were of course the Thunder Beast Battle Camp led by Leon.

The Thunder Beast Battle Camp was able to set up an ambush here in advance. Of course, it was not that Leon had the ability to predict the uncertainty, but that the river bank of this place was closest to Sar City. The swamp water demons had harassed the Uger tribe through here several times.

After Leon grasped this information, he immediately used it.

"Archer's rapid fire retreats, and the thunder beast throws a gun!"

Leon waved his sword to block a water arrow flying towards him and immediately issued a new order.

All the crossbowmen completed the last wave of attacks as fast as possible and immediately retreated deep into the woods. Three hundred warriors took their place and threw shuttle guns.

The big trees in the forest greatly influenced the projection effect, but also provided them with the best protection. The Thunder Beast Warriors did not need to make precise aims. As long as they threw the shuttle gun into the river, they would be considered as completing the mission.

The swamp water demons who had just paid for the water were immediately in trouble. These shuttle guns all had sharp metal spear tips, which were powerful and strong. Even if they were not hit by the vital points, they would be seriously injured if they were shot.

Dozens of water monsters died in an instant, and screams came one after another. Their blood polluted the entire river surface.

The three Naga Banshees were so angry that their eyes turned green. They roared repeatedly, and the counterattack of the water arrow became more and more fierce.

One of the Nagas urged a high water wall on the river surface and pushed it straight up onto the river bank, providing a solid barrier for the swamp water demon.

"retreat!"

Leon ordered without hesitation that more and more swamp water monsters had successfully landed, and the two swamp giant crocodiles had to climb ashore. Under the cover of the three Naga Banshees on the other side, the Thunder Beast War Camp would definitely not be a wise choice if they fought a decisive battle with them here.

His ambush this time was to test the opponent's strength, and to destroy the opponent's sharpness.

Now that these two goals have been achieved, there is no need to confront each other head-on immediately.

With Leon's order, the Thunder Beast Warriors disappeared from the woods on the river bank as fast as possible.

When thousands of swamp water monsters completed their landing, they could no longer find an enemy in the dark woods.

The Naga Banshee's face turned pale.
Chapter completed!
