[0406] Unwarranted ambush
Identifying ambushes is a required course for dragon and bird knights.
Although the guys who can become dragon and bird knights all have good eyesight, but when you are high up in the sky, no matter how good your eyesight is to see everything clearly on the ground, it will eventually be unable to do so. In addition, the magic itself has
There are many methods used to hide, but relying only on eyes during investigation is often not accurate enough.
In this case, in order to make accurate judgments and early warnings, a special judgment method is inherited within the Dragon Bird Knight.
By swaying the "Powder Packet" of the Forbidden Magic Stone and observing the color of the mist that rises after the "Powder Packet" falls to the ground, the Dragon Bird Knight can determine whether there are traces of magic in the target area.
Of course, because the forbidden magic stone is very precious, even the powder packet filled with the scraps of the forbidden magic stone is very precious, so the Dragon Bird Knight will not use it easily.
Just when he was about to end his patrol and report back to the team, Capeless discovered a very abnormal area - here, a large number of trees fell to the ground for unknown reasons, and a small tree appeared in the forest.
, an area without trees.
In the forest at the southern foot of the Shuoyin Mountains, this small blank space is like a bald patch on a middle-aged man's head. It's impossible not to attract attention!
When I drove Price before, there wasn’t such a blank area of trees here!
In other words, during the short period of less than an hour when Kai Price was patrolling back and forth, someone or some animal had moved here and created such an area!
Realizing this, Kai Price took out the magic stone powder packet without hesitation.
"Kailu, dive!"
The dragon bird folded its wings, and Caprice put the lance on the saddle. Taking advantage of the dragon bird's dive, he accurately threw the powder packet of forbidden magic stone to the target area.
The small powder packet exploded immediately after hitting the ground, and dust from the Forbidden Demon Stone flew up, forming a thin layer of smoke on the ground.
After riding the dragon bird to lift up, Capeless counted down silently while staring at the smoke.
Thirty seconds later, the smoke turned from gray to black.
Seeing this scene, Capeless changed direction without hesitation and headed straight for the rear team - the dust and smoke of the Forbidden Demon Stone were black, which meant there were traces of the use of magic!
In other words... there is an ambush there!
……………………
"Is there an ambush in the forest?" After receiving the news, Jarvan IV took it very seriously, "What is the scale of the ambush?"
"It shouldn't be very big." After thinking carefully for a moment, Kai Price gave the answer, "The area destroyed by the trees is not large, and judging from the speed at which the forbidden magic stone turns black, the number of mages is not large.
"
"That's not too bad." Jarvan IV nodded, and then quickly made a judgment? "We are very fast? It is difficult for the enemy to make a big circle and stop us with a large force——
They know that the Dragon Bird Knight is here, but they are still so confident? The goal is probably to delay!"
Thinking of this? Jarvan IV simply took out the map from his waist and continued to ride on his horse while carefully studying the information on the map.
"How about this." After thinking for a while, Jarvan IV finally made a decision? "Let's change the direction slightly at the fork in the road? Instead of taking the original path, we will travel along the Mithril Ancient Road - although it will
It’s a slight detour of an hour or two, but it’s better than meeting the enemy!”
Having made up his mind, Jarvan IV called the messengers around him and quickly passed on the order.
……………………
Back to the state of marching hand in hand with the rear team again? Seeing this group of Demacians silently change direction and start to take a detour, Tamara's face showed a smile.
Sometimes...seeing too much may not be a good thing.
If this team does not have the Dragon Bird Knight, it is really difficult for Tamara to take action - in fact, except for a few lightly armed assassins? Very few people can keep up with this rear team. This kind of
What's the situation? Even if Tamara catches up with them first, there's nothing she can do against this team.
But? If the opponent has a dragon and bird knight, then the situation is different.
As an absolute elite among the war masons, Tamara has an astonishing intelligence reserve, but she is able to master the internal methods of the Dragon Bird Knight.
A team with a dragon and bird knight? It will definitely let the dragon and bird knight serve as a scout.
And being familiar with their use of forbidden magic stone dust... Tamara naturally knows how to mislead these dragon and bird knights!
For example, just now, after seeing the dragon bird knights change shifts and start patrolling, Tamara quickly speeded up, passed the rear troops, and then played a flower blossom in a place in front that looked very suitable for an ambush.
The traces that looked like magic were actually created by Tamara with the help of disposable magic items.
The traces after the use of magic items were judged by the Dragon Bird Knight as "ambush". As a result, the marching route of the entire rear team would naturally change.
It was impossible for this team to stupidly dive into the forest, so their only option was to turn north and take the Mithril Ancient Road. This way they could avoid possible ambush, and also not delay the journey for too long, and avoid being caught behind.
The pursuers catch up.
Through the Hex telescope, she saw with her own eyes that these Demacians, led by her prince, carefully walked into the narrow ancient mithril road, and a satisfied smile finally appeared on the corner of Tamara's mouth.
Jarvan IV is on the second level, but unfortunately Tamara is in the atmosphere - what she wants is for the rear team to walk on the ancient mithril path!
This ancient road is usually safe.
Before the Gate of Sorrow was opened, merchants who wanted to cross the western section of the Silver Mountains took this ancient road.
The "Mithril" in the Mithril Ancient Road actually refers to "wealth". This place was once an important channel for trade. The "Mithril Ancient Road" has the same meaning as the "golden route" and refers to the path of wealth accumulation.
However, due to the later establishment of a fortress at the Gate of Sorrow, and the continuous conflicts between Demacia and Noxus, the importance of this ancient road has finally been weakened, and now it has become a less famous, but not abandoned road.
the way.
Not long ago, Triwell's intelligence station received news that there were traces of demonic actions on the Mithril Ancient Road.
This kind of matter is handled by the intelligence system. With Tamara's authority, she is very familiar with the entire incident.
Afterwards, the war masons used a lot of strength and came to the conclusion that... there was indeed a demon wandering on this ancient road.
The fact that the Mithril Ancient Trail is dangerous is considered a fairly credible rumor in Noxus and Trivel, but the Demacians don't know this.
Therefore, after studying the marching route, Tamara decided to make good use of her information advantage and give Jarvan IV a big gift.
Although there are many of you and your fighting ability is good, in front of the devil... I'm afraid you are not good enough!
