Master Tongtian

Chapter 90 Ambush (810)

In the early morning, Rosen, Xia Bolai and 20 fully armed Silver Moon Rangers rushed to Yuehui Town ahead of the army.

The group was all on horseback.

Rosen was not good at riding a horse, but fortunately, Chabolai chose a horse with the mildest temperament for him and rode him all the way down. Although he was a little tired, he did not hold back the team.

For this operation, the preparations were very thorough. Rosen alone was given two bottles of medium-potency potions and three rune stones that stored mid-level spells.

When needed, just pinch the rune stone hard to directly trigger the spell inside.

On the way, Xia Bolai, who was wearing dark silver mail and a silver-gray emblem, carefully introduced the subsequent battle plan to Rosen.

"The latest information came from the front line. Baron Felin has rebelled, but the situation in Yuehui Town is currently unknown."

"Our initial mission is to investigate the specific situation around Yuehui Town and prepare for the army to seize the town."

Rosen nodded to express his understanding.

Because he was performing a combat mission, he was also fully armed, wearing a thick leather hat and studded thick leather armor. While his defense was good, it would not affect his physical flexibility and spellcasting too much.

He turned around and glanced at the Silver Moon Rangers following behind him, and saw that all of them looked capable.

Such a warrior, if loyal, is a sharp blade; if betrayed, it is a deadly sharp knife that stabs the heart.

He asked softly: "Uncle, have you figured out everyone's situation in the past three days?"

I'm afraid Fubosi's hidden blade is hidden inside.

Xia Bolay nodded slightly: "We have figured it out, they are all neutrals. They don't care who is the Earl of Omicia, they are only loyal to the current Earl of Omicia."

"That's good."

Rosen was a little relieved, but he still maintained basic vigilance towards these Silver Moon Rangers. After all, trust cannot be established overnight.

And when he was observing the Silver Moon Ranger, these capable men were also observing Rosen.

Apparently, some people felt that this military mage was too young.

After walking for about an hour, a slightly joking voice came from behind.

"General, why don't you introduce this kid to us?"

When Xia Bolai heard this, he knew that this was the veteran Youzi who didn't trust Rosen's abilities and was looking for trouble.

Of course he won't blame the other party, because no one wants their comrade to be a rookie on the battlefield.

He laughed loudly and turned to look at Rosen: "Man, let these blind guys open their eyes."

Rosen smiled slightly, and with a thought, he threw a missile directly at a piece of sandstone the size of a farm cow on the side of the road.

Based on his dexterous spell-casting skills, he poured 10% of his mana into this missile.

I saw an incandescent light spot the size of a fist flashing through the air at a speed that was almost indistinguishable to the naked eye, and accurately hitting the gap in the rock 70 meters away.

'boom! Boom~’

There was an explosion, gravel flew everywhere, and smoke and dust flew everywhere.

After the smoke dissipated, they saw that the boulder was broken into countless pieces and was directly disintegrated!

‘Oh~~~’

The Silver Moon Rangers all subconsciously let out a low cry, and looked at Rosen, the contempt in their eyes had faded a lot.

Xia Bolay was also a little surprised: "Rosen, your magic has improved again."

Rosen smiled slightly: "It all depends on Ms. Thrandis's guidance."

"Oh~ no wonder."

Xia Bolay suddenly realized that in his eyes, Thrandis was a magic genius, not inferior to his aunt when she was young.

Seeing the confused expressions of his subordinates behind him, knowing that these military men had never heard of this name, he explained.

"This Ms. Thrandis is Rosen's mentor, an intermediate twelve-star official mage, and a rare magic genius."

Everyone looked surprised.

There was a ranger captain at the front, named Hamil, who was also the soldier who had just raised his doubts.

He smiled and said: "Since there is such a famous master, Master Rosen's spells must be powerful, but he is still a little young, so his magic power may be somewhat insufficient, right?"

These words also expressed everyone's worries.

On the battlefield, mana is even more important than spells. After all, a mage who has exhausted his mana is almost equal to waste.

Xia Bolai laughed: "Hamil, I know your concerns, but don't worry. I once teamed up with Rosen to defeat the Giant Bear Beast King. His magic power is definitely enough."

Hamil was not convinced: "General, you are a high-level warrior. No matter who you join forces with, you can defeat the giant bear beast king, right?"

Another ranger captain named Watson.

He also followed: "Yes, yes. Master Rosen, it's okay if your magic power is weak. You can explain it to us all so that everyone can know. After all, we are comrades who have to fight side by side."

This is true.

Rosen carefully felt the strength of the mana in his body and said, "I can still fire at least 18 missiles with the power just now."

In fact, if you add the Star Wisdom Bracelet and Emergency Meditation, you can release a full 25 missiles continuously.

But this was enough to surprise everyone.

Watson was shocked and obviously didn't believe it: "Oh, at your age, it is quite rare to have such magic power."

Rosen smiled faintly: "Captain, don't be surprised. For a mage, mana doesn't mean everything."

"I am a young person, and I still have many shortcomings in my skills. If there are any shortcomings during the battle, I hope you can bear with me."

Watson nodded repeatedly and said with a dry smile: "Easy to say! Easy to say!"

After that, the Silver Moon Rangers stopped finding trouble with Rosen, but Rosen could feel that words alone could not convince these proud warriors, they had to rely on actual combat.

Seeing that the soldiers initially accepted Rosen, Xia Bolay continued to introduce the subsequent tactics.

Although he is usually unreliable, he has received very professional military training and is very knowledgeable about fighting. In addition, he is also a high-level warrior. Once the arrangements were made, all the soldiers had no objections.

After half a day, a group of people arrived near Yuehui Town.

After simple repairs, Xia Bolai took out the map and began to assign tasks.

"Hamil, take four people to investigate around the town."

"Watson, take the whole team to the Maze Forest to the north of the town and check carefully to make sure there are no ice dwarves ambushing you in the forest!"

"For the rest, follow me to the high ground over there and wait. If there is a special situation, immediately light red smoke to warn."

"Yes, General!"

The two ranger captains immediately split into two groups and ran out.

Xia Bolay turned to Rosen and said, "Let's go to the highlands."

There were seven people in their group, and they ran all the way to the top of the low hill near the town, overlooking Yuehui Town from a high place.

In this world, glass craftsmanship is already very mature, so naturally there are telescopes.

After reaching the top of the slope, Chabolai took out his telescope and carefully observed the situation in the town.

It is now around one o'clock at noon, the sun is shining brightly, and even the snow in the darkest corners has melted away. In such good weather, the residents of the town will definitely not stay at home.

But the actual situation is that not even a single person can be seen in the town.

Whether it was the castle in the town, the surrounding streets, or even the central square, which was usually the busiest, there was not even a dog in it.

Chabolai couldn't help but mutter: "It's strange, how can there be no one? There is no one even in the castle."

Even if he becomes a wild beast, he still has to eat, drink and poop, so he should still be able to see traces of his life, right?

During this time, Rosen was also observing. He used the zoom-in function of the adventure log to look at the town carefully, and he could see it more clearly than a telescope.

"Uncle, I'm afraid there has been no activity in the town since yesterday, or even earlier."

Xia Bolay was startled: "How do you know?"

The Silver Moon Rangers on the side also turned their heads and looked at him curiously.

Rosen pointed to the open-air tavern in the center of the town.

"Uncle, look at the fireplace in the tavern. You can see hoarfrost in the dark corners. And if there is a fire in the fireplace, the hoarfrost will not condense at all under the flames."

Xia Bolay nodded repeatedly: "Yes. The tavern is usually very lively. As long as there are people, the fireplace will definitely not go out, and the furnace wall will naturally not be frosted."

A ranger asked: "Have all the people in the town gone to the mountains?"

This is also very possible.

Rosen shook his head: "We have to observe closely. When Captain Hamill comes back, he should be able to give us the answer."

Everyone waited patiently.

About half an hour later, a howl like a wild beast suddenly came from the town. As soon as the sound came out, it echoed everywhere, just like a pack of wolves howling in unison.

Immediately afterwards, everyone saw many figures with strange movements rushing out of the wooden house in the town.

Why do you say the action is strange?

Because he clearly looked like a human being and was wearing human clothes, but he was running on all fours like a wild animal at an astonishingly fast speed.

It can be seen that all these weird guys are rushing towards the southwest side of the town. Just when everyone on the top of the slope is confused, there is a "bang" sound from the southwest corner, followed by a red smoke exploding in the air.

It's the agreed danger alarm signal!

Xia Bolay was shocked: "What's going on?!"

Rosen has already reacted.

"Uncle, it's an ambush!"

At the critical moment, Xia Bolay felt his head buzzing, and he was a little confused for a moment.

Growing up, despite countless drills, this was his first time participating in a real war.

He stayed silent for two seconds, and during this time, more than 300 lycanthropes appeared in the town.

Rosen immediately said: "Uncle, the troops are divided into two groups. One group will respond to Captain Hamia, and the other group will return to the rear to report the news!"

In fact, the best thing to do was to give up Captain Hamia and retreat immediately, but he knew that Chabolai would never adopt this suggestion.

Xia Bolai was shocked and finally came to his senses.

He immediately nodded at the two Silver Moon Rangers beside him: "You! You! Go back and report to General Fubos immediately!"

"Use all the rune stones, be careful of roadside sneak attacks, and be fast! Let's just say that all the people in Yuehui Town have turned into beasts, and they know how to ambush and have some brains."

‘Clang! ’

He pulled out his sword and rushed towards the red smoke first.

"Others, follow me to pick up Captain Hamill!"
