Start with an Archangel

The prophet invited by Daliang was placed in the underground altar of the city lord's palace. He will use the divination technique in the mysterious technique to fight against the blood divination technique used by the senior orc shaman.

However, the Prophet is only a 15th-level hero. Although his strength exceeds that of ordinary 15th-level heroes, he is a hero who can already peek into the laws. But his mysticism is only at the master level, not at the law level.

Therefore, in a divination confrontation with many 15th-level orc-like senior shamans, the prophet can only interfere, but cannot change or predict anything.

If Howard wanted to learn about the tactical changes of the orc army, he could only use conventional reconnaissance methods.

The degree of danger outside NJ City at this time can be imagined. If you want to accurately investigate the orc army, you must send out a powerful investigation team.

Among the entire NJ City garrison, the Arbitration Angel cannot attack easily, and Howard needs to sit back and direct the war. The only person who can be sent out is Daliang.

Daliang looked at the endless orc army outside and said to Howard: "Yes, sir! I will use magic crystal to record all the orcs' actions."

Da Liang took out the Dark Blazing Sword, then stepped over the crenellations on the city gate and jumped down to the city. At this time... the Unicorn of Doom leaped out with its flaming four hooves, picked up Da Liang on its back during the dive, and then pulled up and stepped on the void towards the orcs' military formation.

Running all the way, leaving burning horse hoof prints all the way.

Behind Daliang, Shu Xiao, who spread his angel wings, led five "mythical" priests and followed closely along the burning road left by the strong wind. Then came the five purple dragons. They flapped their wings and passed by the gate of NJ City. While speeding up to join Da Liang and the priests, they released various beneficial magics to add a positive status to this tactical reconnaissance team.

Shu Xiao quickly caught up with Daliang. She and five other priests spread out from Daliang's wings to form a guard formation. Except for Shu Xiao who uses angel wings to fly, the other priests all ride golden dragons or black dragons, and they have no problem dealing with the same number of level 14 heroes.

Five 15th-level purple dragons were lined up in a line and dragged behind and above. They were the magic firepower platform of this reconnaissance team, responsible for magic field control and heavy firepower strikes.

Daliang rode the wind and purposely ran higher into the sky. He led the team out this time to investigate the movements and arrangements of the orc army. He should try to avoid being involved in unnecessary battles and delaying the investigation.

Ascending high into the sky, Da Liang's eyes had an unobstructed view of the entire battlefield. He kept his responsibilities in mind, took out the magic crystal used to record images, and pointed the shooting angle at the orc army below.

The investigation team flew south, and the city of NJ gradually faded away behind them. To the east of the city is the Zijin Volcano. Several craters continue to spray red volcanic ash into the air, and bright magma gushes out of the craters, forming red-red waterfalls with thick smoke.

If the orcs want to attack the Zijin Volcano, they must first face a network of lava flows, and then they can attack the hell defenders led by Duke Mars.

The west and north sides of NJ City are the Yangtze River, and the west side of the river is directly adjacent to NJ City. Many docks for berthing river boats have also been built here.

At this time, the Yangtze River Pier in NJ City was filled with ships carrying the banners of the Shangjiang and Shuntong Chamber of Commerce. Although Shangjiang did not send too many troops here, the support was not harsh at all.

In this war, Shangjiang will pay for all the military expenses of NJ City. The artillery, catapults, and ballistas used to defend the city are all shipped here by ship. There are also stones, wood, and rare resources that NJ City cannot obtain now.

The soldiers' ordnance consumed in the battle, arrows, food, cloth, etc. are all the things NJ City needs during the war.

Some of these things were produced by Shangjiang himself, but after all, Shangjiang's productivity was limited and he had to prepare for the consumption of the final battle. If you purchase goods by sea, transportation will take a lot of time. Therefore, the gold coins that Shang Jiang waved this time entered the commercial and trade autonomous territory of the Kingdom of Death, and placed orders with the first batch of free traders who entered the autonomous territory.

The goods used for trading in the Death Kingdom Trade Dominion are all traded in gold coins regardless of their origin or destination, and no arrears or collateral are accepted. You only need to pay a certain percentage of transaction tax to the Shuntong Chamber of Commerce, where sellers and buyers can conduct secret transactions hiding their respective identities.

The buyer does not know the origin of the goods in his hand, and the seller does not know where his goods ended up.

Therefore, when the Kingdom of Death Trade Dominion was opened to all directions, it was immediately sought after by smugglers from all walks of life, and they all brought their own specialties to the Trade Dominion. Especially as the plane battlefield intensifies, merchants here often receive unimaginably large orders, and the daily transaction volume keeps rising, attracting more merchants to come with goods.

Buyers are also willing to purchase the goods they urgently need in the Trading Dominion. Even if the goods here are much more expensive than those produced by themselves or purchased through normal channels, a large number of buyers still enter the Dominion every day and bring the purchased items with them. leave.

During a war, every second counts. As long as they can obtain supplies as quickly as possible to help them win, the forces participating in the war will not mind spending a little extra money.

Shangjiang, who is rich and wealthy, does not mind the increased expense of purchasing goods in the Trading Dominion. After all, the transaction tax is given to his own people, and the plane teleportation array only needs to use rare resources without paying additional usage fees.

Taken together, it has saved a lot.

Therefore, these materials were purchased from the Shuntong Commercial Dominion and immediately shipped to NJ City after arriving at Shangjiang. The continuous transportation ensured the war needs of NJ City.

Before the orc army took control of the upper river route, there were no logistical problems in NJ City.

After Daliang saw the east and west wings of NJ City, he safely observed the battlefield in the south of the city.

At this time, the reconnaissance team led by Daliang had crossed the front line of the orc army and entered the hinterland of the orc-controlled area.

Since the orc army can only attack NJ City from the south for the time being, the orcs' numerical advantage cannot be deployed well on a limited battlefield. The number of troops participating in the attack on NJ City is less than one-tenth.

The vast majority of the orc army is scattered in the open land on the southern outskirts of NJ City.

Some orcs drove the big-eared craftsmen to build camps for the orc army to garrison. Each orc camp is a circle with a diameter of 400 to 500 meters. The outer circle of the camp is a wooden fence less than one person high. Simple animal skin tents are set up inside, and two criss-crossing roads connect it to the outside. .

One after another such camps are scattered irregularly in the wilderness, forming a large camp of the orc army.

Some movements of the orc army can be seen from high in the sky. This is a race that is good at fighting. After their first trial, they realized that the defenders on the south side of NJ City were very strong and the battlefield environment was not conducive to their attack.
