Merlinsera was confused. "What's wrong? Did something bad happen? "
"It's just a guess, but it hasn't been confirmed yet."
Roddy thought for a moment and organized his thoughts. He then continued, "I was just thinking that the Tuk Tribe only managed to take down Lachman's city with the Anti-Magic Field because they caught him by surprise. If both sides can't use spells and return to fighting with cold weapons, the Tuk Tribe might not be able to gain much of an advantage. Even if the priests can transform, they won't be able to do much. After all, they won't be that strong after transforming. "
Then, he pointed at Merinsera's palm. "But what if the Tuk Tribe's army has a spell holder like you? If Lachman can't cast spells, but the Tuk Tribe's army can … How are they going to fight this battle? "
Hearing this, Merinsera frowned. However, Roddy waved his hand and said, "All of this is just a guess. Now that we know, we have to think of a way to defend against it. But … this move of yours is really impressive. Solomon's legacy is indeed not as simple as we thought. "
Hearing their conversation, Naify suddenly asked, "If this Anti-Magic Field can only block spells from this plane, why can I still see the light on these things?"
This time, Roddy and Merinsera looked at her at the same time. Then, they looked at each other for a few seconds and asked almost at the same time, "Who is your father?"
They asked this because Camilla was an Arcanist who had mastered the High Elves' spell system. Obviously, Arcanists couldn't avoid the Anti-Magic Field. The only possibility was that Naify's father had a special identity that allowed her to inherit some "talent" that didn't belong to this plane.
"Element Visualization" wasn't a talent that could be found everywhere. At least, Merinsera had never heard of anyone who could maintain this ability. Some spells could allow the caster to see the rhythm of the elements, but it couldn't allow the caster to see them all the time.
Naifei looked around and blinked her eyes. "I've said it before. Ever since I could remember, my mother had never told me about my father … I don't even know his name. In fact, I didn't know that every child has a father until I was seven years old."
In the past, Roddy only thought that she didn't remember things, but now it was obvious that there was a problem. However, if Roddy went to Elsen City and asked her questions like "where did your husband go", he felt that he would definitely be beaten up …
Such doubts could only be buried in the bottom of his heart, but Roddy was more curious about how much Naifei's ability was affected. "Can you cast other spells?"
"Something else …"
Naify raised her hand and tried to gather magic power, but nothing happened. She stuck out her tongue and said, "I really can't gather any elements. Sister Merlinsera is the best!"
Roddy glanced at Merinsala. Even though the latter's expression was calm, he still complimented, "This is indeed very impressive. At least for now … if you were to challenge most of the Wizards in this realm with these shards, you would definitely win."
"It's not bad. You were the one who told me to learn this. Now it seems that I made the right choice."
Merlinsera finally smiled, but she had always been cold, so the smile soon disappeared.
"It seems that I need to learn how to summon creatures from the Elemental Plane from you." Roddy thought that although his "Element Summoner" level had increased a little, he still hadn't learned "Cross-Plane Elemental Summoning". The elemental creatures in this realm were already very powerful after they were gathered. He didn't know if the summoned creatures from the Elemental Plane could be more powerful. In the past, Roddy couldn't find a way to do it, but now that Merlinsera had found the knack of it, she should be able to help him a lot. So, he asked directly, "If you have time, can you teach me?"
"I don't know anything about summoning, but if it's just studying the Elemental Plane, I can give you some reference."
The corner of Merlinsera's mouth unconsciously curled up again. Roddy immediately agreed. "Okay, I'll go check on the enemy's reinforcements now. If you're tired, you can rest for a while."
"I'm not tired! I'll go with you, okay? "
Naify immediately shouted. Roddy glanced at Merlinsera, who shrugged. "To the city wall? I'll go have a look too. "
When the three of them arrived at the southern city wall, they discovered that the cannon carriages weren't moved to the top of the city wall to defend against the enemy. Instead, they were placed on the passage below. At the same time, on the open plain in front of them, they could see a small army detouring around the area in front of them and heading towards the east side of the city wall …
On the other side, Wizard Valad, who had just broken camp not long ago, was leading an army of forty thousand people towards the city.
Although they had the help of a sound amplification spell, it was still very difficult to ensure that the army of forty thousand people did not cause any trouble while moving. Fortunately, Valad had a solid foundation in this aspect. After a series of orders were passed down in an orderly manner, the army began to march towards Lasha City in batches.
However, they hadn't gone far when Valad received an urgent message from Lasha City on horseback. It showed that the local reinforcements had finished crossing the river and were quickly detouring around Lasha City to attack his army that had just broken camp not long ago!
It was very rare for Valad to receive this news in advance because he didn't expect the enemy to be so bold as to directly detour around the city to attack his army. Either the enemy knew that there would be no reinforcements coming out of the city, or they were extremely confident in their cavalry's ability.
Forty thousand people sounded like a lot, but in war, numbers were never the deciding factor. When the cavalry attacked a vulnerable position when they were defenseless, the losses would definitely not be small. If some of them fled, the impact on the morale of the army would be unimaginable. Valad was familiar with history, so he knew that Lachman had relied on the magic troops to achieve a miraculous battle in which three thousand people defeated thirty thousand people. He didn't want to become a negative example in history.
At this time, Valad's vanguard troops had opened up a distance of nearly a kilometer from the engineers who were dragging the supply wagons and siege vehicles. Even if he wanted to gather the troops into a bucket formation, he couldn't do it. He had to immediately order the front, middle, and rear troops to stop at the same time and shrink into three groups, trying their best to form a formation.
At the same time, he quickly transferred eight hundred cavalrymen to the middle army as a mobile support team. The others worked hard to equip their ordnance and prepare for the cavalry's attack.
From the time the order was given to the troops to start executing, it took fifteen minutes. By the time the chaotic soldiers got into position, the enemy cavalry had already formed a black line and was pressing towards them from afar …
"So fast …"
