Mage Joan

Chapter 111: Duckbill Cavalry

Joan found the Dingdall brothers in the ranks of non-commissioned officers. The two were only accompanied by Tom, a dwarf blacksmith in armor and a warhammer. Joan used to meet with three teammates and asked Dick: "Wes haven't they come yet?"

"Wes, Gray and Jamie live in the back mountain hut, far away from the assembly point, and it takes more time to rush over." Dick explained, looking away from time to time.

Joan looked at him in front of him, and the first thing he saw was the "refusing horses" lined up neatly. These huge defensive devices are made of thick and long wooden piles. The structure is simple but very practical. The wooden piles pointed forward are all sharpened, which can effectively block the enemy cavalry charge.

The outer layer of the double-layer rejection horse is a trench dug temporarily. The mayor of Dindale has been mobilizing all the townsmen to work day and night, finally digging a trench around the town with an average width of 15 feet and a depth of 6 feet before the attack by the lizardmen gangsters. Don’t try to climb out of the pile if you fall in.

In addition to these two temporarily constructed defensive measures, the surrounding wall of Delin Town was also reinforced. A militia squad armed with crossbows was placed around the wall. A large bed crossbow was placed on the outposts on both sides of the town entrance. The crossbow arrows fired were as thick as Long rifle with a range of thousands of feet.

Seeing these careful defenses, Qiao An felt a lot more down-to-earth and looked farther away. Through the early morning mist, he saw a scale stationed on the beach about 300 yards away from the town’s mouth. The huge army has a visual strength of no less than 1,000 people.

This menacing army is the Lizardmen Corps of the Cold Blood Tribe. Three quarters of them are infantry warriors armed with spears and javelins, as well as more than two hundred elite cavalrymen. Composition, all wearing leather armor and holding a spear. The lizardmen's mount is not an ordinary warhorse, but an omnivorous ornithid dinosaur that inhabits swamp areas, which the locals call the "duckbill dragon".

In the New World, dinosaurs can be seen everywhere from south to north. I am afraid that there are so many ethnic groups that even the most knowledgeable people can't be counted. The indigenous people of the New World have tried to domesticate dinosaurs as camels and even military mounts since ancient times. Carnivorous dinosaurs are too fierce and expensive to raise. They are usually not a good choice for domestication. Only people like Rangers and Druids who are good at dealing with beasts dare to try to domesticate carnivorous dinosaurs. The dragon is accepted as an animal partner. Compared with carnivorous dinosaurs, herbivorous and omnivorous dinosaurs have a milder temperament, are more easily domesticated, and their feeding costs are much lower than carnivorous dinosaurs.

During his stay in the Algonquin Valley, Joan witnessed the ogre riding the domesticated "swollen head dragon" as a horse assaulted into the battlefield, and his magnificent victory over the horse. There are also dinosaurs suitable for domestication as military mounts like the Pachycephalosaurus in the big swamps where the lizardmen live. It is the "duckbill dragon" opposite the saddles that look like a group of giant water birds. The shape of the platypus is very special. Unlike the "dinosaurs" that people generally recognize, there are only duckbills and duck webs. The body is also covered with glossy gray feathers! Before witnessing "Duckbill Dragon" with his own eyes, Joan didn't know that there were dinosaurs with no scales but long feathers in the world. It seemed awkward!

Although the appearance is a bit strange, the platycodon is not so irritating. It runs like a horse, and its wide and hard beak is like a large iron shovel. It can easily turn the heavy knight shovel to the ground. The only thing that made Joan feel lucky was that the platyrhynchos had feathers but no wings, and could not fly in the air like a real water bird. Otherwise, the defensive measures of Delin Town were all in vain.

There is a very conspicuous figure in the center of the samurai samurai who rides the Zeddi platypus. This person's mount is different. He is a red-headed seven-headed snake lizard. The monster was huge like a dragon, with a slender lizard head on each of its seven long necks, black smoke from its nostrils, and flames spitting between the teeth.

The cold-blooded knight on the back of the seven-headed snake lizard has a dark red complexion, and a black and white cloak is flying in the wind. The vicious face, the dark bat wings, and the horns on the forehead remind Joan of the demon in the abyss. Look again. Looking at the **** trident clasped in his hand, I can guess without questioning that this person is the new patriarch of the cold-blooded tribe "Son of the Devil" Kotar-a high-ranking half who is favored by the abyss lord Seth Inaike Purgatory lizardman warrior.

Joan narrowed his eyes and looked at Kotar for a long time. Without detecting magic, he could see that this person was circling around a strong and awe-inspiring magic power. The trident in his hand and the cloak he wore were also magic equipment. Unfortunately, the distance is too far to use the Rune Rune to identify the details of these two pieces of equipment. Joan looked away slightly, noticing that the old lizard man riding the Zedi platyrhynchos beside Kotar was also not an ordinary person. Judging from the shaman robe he wore, it must have been launched in conjunction with Kotar. The coup killed Elder Basong, the former patriarch Milik.

Joan also found that Elder Basong had a thin two-foot rod in his hand, which was carved out of the skeleton of an animal. The whole body was ivory. The head of the rod was inlaid with a sapphire as large as a quail egg. , Reflected morning light glows like a dream halo.

Based on his own magical knowledge, Joan guesses that Elder Basong holds mostly a "magic wand". Items such as magic wands, staves, and scepters are often inlaid with jewelry. If these jewelry are treated as simple decorations, it is wrong. In fact, different jewelry has different effects, and most of them can increase the effect of specific types of spells. For example, sapphire has the effect of enhancing the summoning spells. Since Elder Basong’s wand is inlaid with a large sapphire, Joan has reason to speculate that his wand can release the druid magic that calls natural allies such as tiger, leopard, bear and wolf. As for the specific summoning spells, Joan couldn't guess.

Kotar and Bassoon led the Lizardmen's army to approach the town of Delin but were not in a hurry to attack. Obviously, they realized that this small human town had been guarded. Digging trenches in advance to set up refusal horses was not as easy to conquer as they thought. If a strong attack is launched from the front, huge casualties will inevitably be paid.

Kotar, who had just taken the throne of the patriarch and had no firm foundation, did not want to take the risk of damaging his soldiers. He decided to conduct a careful investigation of the internal situation of Delin Town before launching the general attack, which was incidentally brought to the opposing group of dares to fight the cold-blooded army. When one of the lower scaleless creatures dismounted, the elder Basong made a wink.
