In the winter of Year 732 of the Aran Calendar, at the end of the year, there was a big event that even the winter weather could not stop. It was a war that was known as the "War of the Day." The elves, who were about to be forgotten in the circle of power in the mysterious land, once again became the main topic of everyone's discussion, whether it was the nobles or the civilians.
Although there had not been a large-scale war in the mysterious land for one or two hundred years, small conflicts at the border were still inevitable. The largest scale of casualties, including civilians, was not impossible for both sides to have more than a thousand casualties.
However, in terms of level, no matter which country or superior lord, there was restraint. Even if they supported their own vassals, they would secretly send troops or supplies. They would not show their own banners and go into battle with bare arms.
One of the biggest reasons that made the noble lords so restrained was without a doubt the magic towers that the mages had set up everywhere.
Originally, the magic towers were used as regional defense fortresses to effectively resist attacks from nature, magic beasts, and wild beasts. The noble lords were happy to have mages share the responsibility of protecting their civilization. At that time, they never thought that when the number of magic towers reached a certain level, the mages would in turn influence the local lord's policy implementation.
This was not to say that the mages would overestimate their abilities and interfere with the lord's management of a territory. It was to say that when the lord wanted to suppress a rebellion or send troops to seize water or minerals because of the wrong policies, it was best for these troops to march around the magic towers.
Mages didn't mind being chivalrous if they didn't have enough righteous status. In essence, the master of a magic tower was more like an adventurer than a lord.
Anyway, it was natural for a magic tower to fight against an army. The Society of Sorcerers would not intervene because of this. Unless the mages used the tower's strategic magic to massacre and coerce the civilians, and do anti-civilization acts.
However, a 'war' with only eight hundred and thirteen casualties — according to historical records using the new numbers — was recognized as a war even though the number of casualties did not surpass the number of water sources or mines in large cities. Most importantly, the level of the war was too high.
In terms of military affairs, the death of the highest level was a general of the elven army. He was also a veteran of the battlefield and a famous archer. He climbed to the position of general not because of blood or nepotism, but because of fighting.
In terms of government affairs and faith, there were even more high-level deaths. Druid elders, big druids, elven elders, and families with ancient inheritances. These famous elves were all listed on the death list.
— — in fact, some of them were actually killed by the old elven king, who then added their names together with the list. — —
Of course, compared to the number of casualties and the scale of the battle, the tactics used in this one-day war were the most discussed topic. The decapitation tactic was no stranger to military strategists. Targeting and protecting the king and the general was a very important part of a war. Therefore, in some chess games, victory and defeat were not determined by eating all of the opponent's chess pieces, but by eating the king.
Using teleportation magic to accurately suppress an area and execute a decapitation before retreating. Such an idea was the dream tactic of all military strategists. But from a practical point of view, it was impossible to execute. Because as long as someone thought of it, there would naturally be someone who would think of a way to defend it.
Dimensional Anchor, Spatial Disruption, Perception Misdirection … There were too many spells that could cause teleportation to fail. As long as one of them worked, the entire army could be reimbursed.
As for the layout of the palace, it was even more important. Even if there was no army invasion, they had to guard against assassins. Therefore, when it came to the protection and confidentiality of the palace, every country did their best to do their best. After all, everyone was afraid of death, and those who stood at the top of power were even more afraid of death.
But even if all the preparations were made to the best and all the standards were raised to the highest, the palace of a country was still invaded. Moreover, it was an instant suppression without any resistance.
In particular, the one who did this was the wood elven tribal alliance that belonged to the World Tree. It had to be known that the wood elven tribes were scattered all over the maze and not gathered in one place. In other words, even if the alliance army did not gather in advance, there must be a way to quickly communicate and coordinate. Only then would there be a way for the army to appear in all parts of the palace at the same time.
In short, this military operation was so unbelievable in the eyes of those military strategists that it was hard to believe that all of this was real. Thanks to the speed of information circulation on the forum, as well as the chaos of information circulation, many real and fake news instantly filled the various chat sections of the forum.
Everyone wanted to confirm it, whether it was true or not. The best way was to ask the person involved.
On the morning of the second day after the liberation of the World Tree, a certain someone who stayed home for breakfast for the first time in more than ten days became the target of other people's attention.
The two apprentices who had been with her for a long time were more calm and did not ask about things that had nothing to do with them. However, the other young man did not have this level of calmness. Leonardo, who was unable to sit still, wanted to speak but did not dare to.
The young man did not know how to ask, but it did not mean that everyone did not dare to ask. The magic prince who suddenly appeared grabbed the kitten Lily, who was drinking milk, without triggering the defense mechanism in the mansion. Ignoring the magic cat's protest, Azad stroked the cat and walked towards a certain someone. After sitting down on the seat next to him, he asked, "Is it true?" At the same time, he stuffed the kitten into a certain someone's arms.
The kitten, who was released from its restraints, jumped back to the ground. She glared at the magic prince with dissatisfaction, but knew that she could not do anything to this person, so she walked back to her breakfast to eat. Speaking of which, these three little magic cats were already used to being fed. If this continued, they would probably become useless. Should I discuss this with Wheeze and train these three kittens properly? A certain someone thought.
As for the magic prince's strange question, Lin did not know if he was asking about the matter he was thinking about. After all, this brother's thoughts were hard to grasp. He simply replied, "What's true can't be false, and what's false can't be true. Do you think it's true or false? "
"What kind of messy answer is that? What I'm asking is, did you use Blink to teleport an army and take down the capital of an elven kingdom? Not only did you burn, kill, and pillage, you also raped all the female elves you saw, from eight to eight hundred years old. "
Holy shit! Not even eight hundred years old? What kind of hardcore game was this? Basically, the average elven lifespan was around six hundred years old. After four hundred to four hundred fifty years old, their appearance would begin to age. If they were still alive at eight hundred years old, they would either be extraordinary, or their bloodline would be atavistic. Otherwise, they would be so old that they would be skinny and skinny like an undead creature, which was an existence similar to his current appearance.
In response to the magic prince's additional explanation, Lin replied with a wry smile, "The first half of your sentence is only half correct. Where did you hear the second half from? Do you think we would have returned today if we had really done that? "
"I don't know how long you can last, so it's reasonable to doubt this point. This is very normal." Azad did not let go of any opportunity to be sarcastic. However, he was still a person who was loyal to his desires, so he said, "Actually, what I want to protest is, if there's such a fun thing, why didn't you come to me? I think if the desire to cut and cut hasn't been relieved, what do you think will happen? "
A certain someone said helplessly, "Your Highness, have you ever thought that this is why I didn't dare to come to you? This time, I plan to show off my muscles and scare them, so that they will readily surrender. If I really let you come out, I think it will turn into a massacre. "
"Do I look like such a bloodthirsty person? Killing those incompetent people is not fun at all. At least, it has to be like you to have fun challenging them. "Azad calmly said something very frightening.
However, a certain someone, who was used to it, said without thinking, "Those that you casually killed don't count, right? They're too weak. "
"That kind of thing has never been the point." Azad looked thoughtfully at the dark elf Myr, who was standing behind a certain human magician and serving him as if nothing had happened. He said, "What I want to ask is, did you really teleport an army to attack someone else? It wasn't that group of elves who had a dream and released some stories to attract attention and prevent themselves from becoming marginalized. "
Speaking of which, if he stayed in this home, would his tone of speech become more and more earthlike? If this fellow in front of him continued to stay here, would it be surprising if he spoke in a standard Beijing accent one day?
However, since this person had asked, it would be very troublesome not to answer. He would pester him for an answer, no matter the means. But sometimes, if he did, he wouldn't care. Therefore, a certain someone has always felt that this person was very difficult to please.
Since His Highness wants to know, then he will answer. Therefore, Lin said, "First of all, the number of the attack was only half an army, not 'one' army as in the rumors. The number of people is less than half, but still a lot. Second, to teleport such a large number, of course it wasn't me who did it. If you want me to teleport more than 5,000 people with Blink, I wouldn't be able to do it. Therefore, it was the World Trees who did it. "
"You taught those blockheads Blink? Didn't you claim that no one in this world can learn it, so you don't feel like teaching these ignorant fools? "
A certain someone almost jumped up when he heard that. He explained, "Hey hey hey, you have to have evidence to throw feces on. When did I say that? Besides, another person who can Blink is staring at you. " Seeing Fen's sharp gaze, the demon prince laughed and didn't continue to pursue the matter. "… Besides, Blink is a teleportation spell that was learned from the World Trees. It's not surprising that they can, or developed a new teleportation spell. The spell that teleported half an army is a new teleportation spell that they developed after obtaining the relevant knowledge of Blink. It's called 'Rainbow Bridge'. "
Staring at a certain Wizard with a suspicious gaze, Azad asked, "Is what you said true?"
"Of course it's not true. It's just an excuse to divert other people's attention. After you heard it, do you think it will be effective? "Lin asked rhetorically.
"It's alright. But it doesn't make sense. "Azad commented very seriously.
"That's true. As long as there's a trace of possibility, those people with loose ends will want to find a breakthrough through me. "
