My Magic Age

The group of spider warriors and giant spiders were closely following our army. Wherever they passed, they made the Black Forest a mess like locusts.

These Nibru spiders chased us non-stop in the Black Forest. I could even vaguely feel the whole earth shaking under the feet of those Nibru spiders.

Not long after, I made a desperate decision. Except for some necessary living supplies, almost all the armaments of the heavy armored infantry regiments of the large army were abandoned on the way. They only needed to carry stretchers and take the seriously injured companions.

At the beginning of the march, I ordered all the heavy armors of the heavy armored infantry regiments to be thrown away in the camp in the cracks of the fault.

Until the evening of the first day after the team set out, the spiders did not give up chasing us because of the coming of night. They still followed us closely. Those spider warriors seemed to be irritated by us. I think the reason was that we killed many giant spiders during the day.

After dark, they were still looking for us. The only thing to be thankful for was that the soldiers of the heavy armored infantry regiment became very relaxed after removing their heavy armor. Even if there were some wounded in the team, many people had to take turns carrying stretchers all the way forward. Although many people looked tired, no soldiers fell behind.

Seeing them tired, I was worried that it would be difficult for them to persist in the next section with their current physical strength.

Therefore, I asked the heavy armored warriors to discard their bulky weapons, mainly those bulky tower shields and sharp halberds.

This decision was unanimously opposed by all members of the heavy armored infantry regiment, but the opposition was invalid! For me, this decision was an order. I didn't need anyone to raise any objections. I just needed them to execute this decision.

In this way, the team got a moment's rest when it was decided that the soldiers of the heavy armored infantry regiment would discard their weapons.

Then we continued to move forward lightly under the cliff of Shiping Mountain, running eastward all night.

…

This night was particularly difficult, because we could no longer find the giant spiders entrenched in the trees, so we could only rely on magic flares and the fire in the jungle to attract the spider warriors.

I was worried that if we only relied on lighting a fire from time to time in the forest to attract the spiders, even if they were slow to react, they might notice it, so I decided to set up an ambush.

In the hilly area of ​​the Black Forest, there are many places with very strange terrain.

In front of our team, we encountered a narrow natural barrier. This natural stone screen was more than 20 meters high and two kilometers long. The surface was very smooth. The surface of the rock looked rusty and covered with reddish-brown watermarks. This whole rock contained a lot of iron elements. Maybe there would be iron ore nearby. This rock was exposed on the surface, like a natural stone wall.

Our large force could only choose to bypass it from the side, so it was inevitable that it would meet with our team.

After crossing this stone wall, I asked the tauren Luka to lead the team to move forward. This time, each warrior in the team was only allowed to carry two days of rations. All the remaining supplies were discarded, including tents and iron pots.

I left behind ten longbow archers from the heavy armored infantry regiment and twenty orc warriors who were good at using short flying spears.

These longbow archers only wore a layer of soft sheepskin light leather armor, and carried quivers on their backs. There were only a few long-shaft feather arrows left in the quivers. They had short daggers hanging around their waists. When they heard that they were going to participate in the ambush of the spider warriors, they all seemed very excited, with a layer of red on their cheeks. These actions showed that they did not have much combat experience.

Each of the orc warriors carried five short flying spears. When they heard that an ambush battle was going to be carried out, they decisively sat down. Before I gave the next order, they quickly took out the wheat cakes they carried in their arms, and then tore them into two halves. They gave one half to the longbow archers, and quickly stuffed the remaining half into their mouths. They drank half a pot of cold water and then sat against the stone wall to rest.

The longbow archers didn't expect that before the battle, the orc warriors would give them a piece of scones. They were moved and swallowed the scones in a few bites like the orc warriors.

"Hey! Buddy." A longbow archer put his hand on the orc warrior's shoulder while chewing a scone.

The orc warrior who was resting his eyes opened his bright eyes and looked at the longbow archer quietly. The light golden pupils showed a firm look.

The longbow archer gently rubbed his nose and said to the orc warrior: "Thank you for the wheat cake. I will remember the help that the orc brothers gave to us Durva warriors. I will tell every friend and relative around me what we encountered on the Yello plane and how we were helped by a group of kind orcs. I must take back my previous extreme views on the orc warriors. I'm sorry, I used to be a short-sighted person, but now I have decided to face my stupidity."

"It's nothing. We fight together and it's right to help each other!" The orc warrior didn't say much, but his words were full of sincerity. His imperial language was not very fluent.

...

The path on the left side that climbs upward is just a narrow gap. I placed some ‘Frost Scrolls’ on the gravel path. Unfortunately, my magic parchment has been used up, and even the most basic frost scrolls cannot be replenished. The last ones left are all placed on this mountain road.

Very close to the gravel path, there is a large stone wall at the end of the gravel path. I lie on the top of the stone wall, and on the stone wall are two enhanced ‘Frost Nova’ magic scrolls.

Qi Ge’s magic ink has made a little breakthrough, but the price of this small breakthrough is a bit high.

Three days ago, when I used Qi Ge’s improved falling snow ink to draw ‘Frost Nova’ for the first time, I almost caused Qi Ge’s tent to explode.

At the last moment, I still successfully completed the drawing of the scroll. Fortunately, I have a new understanding of ice magic. Otherwise, if there is a slight mistake that night, I might become an ice sculpture, but those nightmare-like days are finally over.

Sometimes, I was even a little confused, wondering why Qige always liked to do these dangerous experiments.

The area around this gravel path was very humid, and the water element in the air was very sufficient, allowing me to quickly condense a water wall.

Kalancuo and the orc team were right next to me. Not far below the cliff, a bonfire was lit in the forest. The bonfire burned so vigorously that some flames could be seen from afar through the layers of treetops.

In fact, this group of spiders did not make us wait too long. Indistinctly, I could hear the rustling sound in the jungle.

My heart suddenly lifted, and I saw a large number of black figures suddenly appear in the darkness of the forest. Those strong spiders emerged from the forest one after another. They gathered around the bonfire and communicated with each other. The firelight illuminated their bodies very clearly in this dark night.

Then, countless giant spiders emerged from the dark forest, and the entire black forest seemed agitated.

The low "hissing" sound came one after another.

It seemed that the physical strength of the spider warriors and giant spiders had reached the limit. Their huge abdomens kept contracting violently, and the exhaust ports kept emitting white water vapor.

I didn't want to stay here for too long. Looking at the team of hundreds of spiders below, I wondered how many spiders outside the Trum stronghold we had led here this time.

While the spider warriors were talking around the campfire, Kalancuo issued a command softly, and thirty warriors emerged from the top of the rock screen. Then, the orc warriors threw out the short flying spears in their hands, and the longbow archers behind them also pulled their longbows to the full and shot out the long-pole feather arrows in the quiver.

This process was very fast. When the first short flying spear was still flying down in a parabola, the orcs had already thrown all five short flying spears in their hands, and under the leadership of Kalancuo, they quickly evacuated to the rear.

At this time, the short flying spears flying in the darkness arrived as expected, falling like raindrops, followed by some long-pole feather arrows, which also fell one after another...

At this time, the spiders realized that they were ambushed. They became very violent and made some harsh hissing sounds. The falling short flying spears caused some panic in the spider team. Some spiders quickly hid in the woods. Many spider warriors were stabbed by these short flying spears and roared furiously, but they did not rush up, but urged the giant spiders around them and ordered them to rush forward.

Afterwards, a large number of giant spiders emerged from the spider group, and they rushed towards the stone screen like a tide.

When they arrived at the bottom of the stone screen, the spiders tried to directly pierce the stone wall with their sharp spider legs and climb up directly. Unfortunately, this rock contains a lot of iron elements, which is not only hard and hard, but every time the spider legs pierce the rock wall, it will cause a large area of ​​​​the rock wall to collapse. No matter what, they can't climb up.

This group of spiders gathered more and more under the stone screen like a flood.

At this time, the orc team and ten longbow archers had quietly evacuated from the stone cliff...

Finally, the giant spiders found the gravel path on the left side of the stone screen first. This group of giant spiders rushed up along the gravel path like a flood that broke through the dam, but along the way, they kept bursting out pieces of steaming ice mist. Obviously, under the cover of the night, the giant spiders behind didn't know what happened in front, and they continued to pour into the gravel path.

The giant spiders rushing in the front knew that there was a trap in front, but they had no way to do it. Their bodies were pushed forward involuntarily by the huge force behind them.

Their eyes were full of fear. They tried to stop by any means in a panic. The huge spider legs hung on the stone wall beside them, and their bodies were as stiff as rocks. They kept roaring in fear behind them, but all this was useless.

Their bodies were still pushed forward by the huge force, and the 'frost traps' on the ground were continuously detonated, causing the entire ice trail to be filled with ice fog.

Then, when the giant spiders walking in front slowly discovered that the ice fog was not dangerous, they began to climb up recklessly again at a very fast speed. However, they did not expect that the stone wall would make a sound of ice cracking, and two white light circles spread out one after another, and the extremely cold aura detonated around the group of giant spiders.

The giant spiders on the gravel path were frozen together. Before the giant spiders could react, a huge light blue magic circle appeared above their heads. A water wall condensed under the night sky. Then, the water wall seemed to have suddenly lost the support of magic power and fell from the air weightlessly.

It poured on the giant spiders, soaking them all with water.

At the moment when the water wall fell, I, standing on the cliff not far away, shouted softly: "Freeze!"

The giant spiders on the gravel path were all frozen in the ice wall. Then, I almost emptied all the magic power in the magic pool and input all of it into the ice wall that froze dozens of giant spiders, forming the magic pattern magic circle of "Ice Explosion".

"Explode."

As I uttered this word, the ice wall condensed on the gravel path exploded with a "boom".

The gravel path was filled with ice and snow, and broken ice flew everywhere. Countless ice and snow completely submerged the broken ice path.

I didn't care to see what kind of damage those magics could cause to the giant spiders, so I hurriedly rode on the floating magic broom beside me and quickly left this area, like a sharp arrow, and went into the dark jungle.

Following the mark left by Kalancuo, I caught up with Kalancuo and the orc team a quarter of an hour later.

Not long after, we saw the raging fire burning in the jungle of Qige's team in the distance, and I felt the roar coming from the piece behind us, followed by the violent tremor of the whole land. Countless spider warriors turned around and rushed to Qige's team.

In this way, we tossed around in this jungle for another whole night.

When it was almost dawn, Qige and I caught up with the large army in front of us. As expected, the soldiers of the heavy armored infantry regiment still had the most serious problems. This was also the thing I didn't want to see the most, and it finally happened.

The orc warriors seemed to be fine, but the heavy-armored infantry soldiers who had been marching for a day and a night, although they had discarded their heavy armor at the beginning and discarded all their weapons at night, were still seriously exhausted by the early morning and could not run.

However, there was still a long way to go to the dust and mud swamp. The group of spider warriors and giant spiders behind us were biting us tightly. As long as we stopped, the spider warriors would catch up in less than two quarters of an hour.

So we couldn't stop to rest, and we couldn't wait for a moment.

But looking at those heavy-armored infantry soldiers who were sitting on the ground and gasping for breath and refused to get up, I really couldn't say those harsh words. In fact, they really tried their best.

These heavy-armored infantry soldiers were a little ashamed. The physical strength they had always been proud of was crushed to almost nothing in front of the orc warriors.

This was because they discarded their heavy armor at the beginning and then discarded their heavy weapons, so they barely managed to survive until now.

But now these warriors just hope to rest on the ground like a dead dog, even for a short while.

"We can't wait any longer, those spiders are catching up. If we don't leave now, we might be entangled tightly, and it won't be so easy to get out at that time!" Kalancuo couldn't hold back her anxiety. In her eyes, there were only me and those orc warriors. As for the safety of others, she didn't seem to care so much.

If I can save them, of course I will save them, but in times of crisis, we still have to prioritize.

"Is there any way?" I looked at the warriors lying on the ground and refused to get up, and asked Kalancuo.

Kalancuo shook his head speechlessly, and the meaning in his eyes was obviously asking me back: You don't want the orc warriors to carry them!

I subconsciously glanced at the orc warriors. Although they didn't show signs of fatigue, I don't think they can run far with the imperial warriors on their backs.

Qi Ge pondered for a moment, then raised his head, looked at me firmly as if he had made up his mind, and said, "I have another way!"

'Potion No. 3' can quickly restore physical strength and allow the user to run like a wild horse. However, after the effect of the medicine wears off, the user's legs will swell like elephant legs in the next three days, and he may even be unable to walk.

This is the 'Potion No. 3' in the crazy potion that Prince Wales asked Qi Ge to prepare.

... Not long after, I finally felt the power of the crazy potion prepared by Qi Ge. No wonder Prince Wales admired Qi Ge's crazy potion so much. This is simply the most incredible thing. Those human warriors who were like mud, after taking the 'Potion No. 3', actually recovered their physical strength one by one, and ran faster than a galloping horse.

Our entire team of warriors appeared blatantly in the vision of the spider people.

Under the strange eyes of those spider warriors, they ran straight to the east.

More than 200 spider warriors and a large group of giant spiders followed closely behind our team. After taking the "No. 3 potion", these warriors actually ran a little faster than the spiders.

On the second day, our team ran eastward for most of the day and finally arrived at the edge of the Dustwallow Swamp in the afternoon. Qi Ge was right. There were many Metasequoia trees growing around the wetlands full of water plants.

I jumped off the back of the Minotaur Luka with full energy, looked at the swamp area in front of me, waved to the team, and said loudly: "Let's go in!"
