Chapter 182 The Beginning of Total War

Dudley stretched out his head curiously and saw that the beasts were not very big, and looked a bit like large cats such as pumas. He was about to get closer and take a closer look when an elf soldier riding a kangaroo horse stopped him. He stood in front of him and scolded Dudley very severely to get out of the city quickly.

Dudley shrugged, carried the big basket on his back, turned his head, and retreated to his father. His father laughed, and the two of them walked out of the city calmly. As soon as they left, the gate at the end of the city boomed. Closing it is quite a bit like sweeping the door out and leaving without leaving.

"These elves are so mysterious." Dudley said casually as they walked and chatted.

The father looked left and right, as if to be on guard for any elf scouts following them, and then whispered: "I heard people say that there are two special warriors among the elves, who are very powerful in combat."

He paused and continued: "There is a kind of monk called a shape-shifting monk, who can turn himself into a very vicious monster."

"Oh? Turn yourself into a beast, right? Druid?" Dudley asked. He thought of "Animagus". Transfiguration is a special kind of magic in the wizarding world, which is different from the magic caused by emotional energy. Magic effects are also different from the theoretical basis of elemental magic. Transfiguration is more like an ability given by God, a kind of spiritual magic that can be done at will, and there are many paradoxes.

For example, many wizards can transform into their own "Animagus" form. For example, Professor McGonagall always turns into a cat, and Sirius Black always turns into a big black dog. Logically speaking, this kind of There are limits to transformation, and you cannot turn into other animals at will. However, in some plots, transformation is a bit too random. For example, Hagrid made Dudley grow a pig tail, and Mad-Eye Moody made Malfoy grow a pig tail. Transformed into a ferret.Its principles are confusing and completely elusive.

The Transfiguration class was also Dudley's worst grade, which seriously hindered his overall performance in the course.

Dad had never heard of the word "Druid". He waved his hand and said, "Absolutely. Anyway, he turns into an eagle at one moment and a giant bear at another."

Dudley nodded in his mind. If a group of elven druids turned into giant bears, they might be a good forward team, but in front of the human gun troops, these giant bears could only be used as living targets.

Dad continued: "There are also some elf warriors who have tamed some powerful forest beasts for use in battle. They are called in legends"

Dudley nodded and said, "If you can tame a giant beast like the Steel-Armored Ax Crocodile, that would be awesome..."

Dad lowered his voice and said: "I heard that they also helped the Iron Lion Principality fight against the Byres Empire, but later the Iron Lion King failed to fulfill his promise. Instead, the Emperor of the Byres Empire sent a secret force and stole their secrets. , thus creating a biological weapon like the War Demon Ape."

Dudley nodded: "I see..." He said no more, but felt that their fate with the elves seemed to be unbroken, and they should meet again in the near future.

Just when I thought of this, I saw new information in the ordnance manual:

[j Activate the reputation of the dwarves of Bichibal (cold level): For thousands of years, the elves have migrated and wandered in the barren and desolate wasteland continent, surviving with difficulty. They have maintained good traditions and are willing to accept some of them. Human culture and creation, they believe that they can find a way to heal the world. ]

Dudley was a little in awe when he saw the dwarf's introduction.

When they returned to the temporary camp of the rebels, Mia was already carrying a large basin of grilled crocodile meat to share with the soldiers. Lulu very carefully used a knife to cut the large pieces of barbecue into slices, and each soldier could share it. to a few slices.The soldiers ate happily and kept making praises. After hearing everyone's boasts, Mia's eyes narrowed into crescents with joy.

Seeing Dudley's return, the soldiers all cheered in unison, making Dudley a little embarrassed.

"Try it, try it!" Mia came to Dudley holding a small plate and couldn't wait to feed him a piece.

After running around the elf city for a long time, Dudley was really hungry, his chest pressed against his back. At this time, the fragrant barbecue was put to his mouth and he took it in one bite.

To say that the system produces absolutely high-quality products, the Cooking Master's Guide obtained with 120 points is like giving Mia 10 years of hell-level training. The heat and skills are not inferior to those of a certain Qilin chef, and more importantly Miya's understanding of these ingredients, Dudley's barbecue is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, fat but not greasy, smooth with a little grease, making people have endless aftertaste.

[Delicious grilled crocodile meat (exquisite): consumption can fully restore physical strength. When strength is at or below 20 points, strength/agility +1 for the first time]

The effects of these high-end foods are one-time only, but they are already extraordinary. Dudley imagined that if Mia cooked all the delicacies she had learned, wouldn't it be able to enhance herself by leaps and bounds?

Mia took out the browned crocodile tongue again, and Dudley tasted it. It was chewier and more fragrant than barbecued meat, but the success rate didn't seem to be that high. Only 3 kilograms of crocodile tongue was successfully fried. About a quarter of it, Mia didn't hesitate to share it with the soldiers, and brought it all to Dudley.

[Gourmet's Pan-fried Crocodile Tongue (Epic): Eating it can completely restore physical strength and magic power. When the magic power is lower than 20 points, the first time you eat it, the magic power will be +2. Within two hours, the magic power recovery speed will double. ]

Seeing the "epic" rating, Dudley once again admired this delicious food. He grabbed the plate and ate it. He was afraid that someone would snatch the plate from his hands, and he wanted to lick the plate all over again.

This time when he came to the Wasteland Continent, Dudley worked desperately for so many days, and finally tasted the rewards of victory. He saw his strength increased to 17 points (Warrior level), and his agility increased to 17 points (Ranger level). The magic power increased to 16 points (court wizard level), and he felt happy.Looking at the resistance fighters standing or sitting on the ground in front of them, I believe that Mia can use high-end ingredients to greatly improve their overall physical fitness in a short period of time and create a special force.

Who said that war must involve thousands of troops and two armies facing each other?With a ninja-like special force and the invisible Spitfire, they can turn Byres's troops stationed in the Kingdom of Wind upside down. Dudley also believes that there must still be people in the Kingdom of Wind. There are forces loyal to the royal family, and there must be people who are forced to bow to Byres due to the situation. As long as the balance of victory tilts slightly towards Mia, these people will automatically appear.

Of course, a few pieces of crocodile meat was not enough. The soldiers also simply cooked the meat they cut from the giant crocodile. Although it was far less delicious than what Mia made, people came from the desperate desert. For those who have broken out, filling their stomachs is enough to make their hearts full of hope and their bodies full of strength.

At dawn, the Spitfire activated its stealth again and set off toward the northeast. The mountainous forest area in the central part of the Iron Lion Principality was quite vast and dotted with villages. However, after traveling about two hundred kilometers, they saw a road in the forest. It was densely packed with people.

Dad raised the airship to about 120 meters and slowly stopped it in the air. Dudley looked down from a high position and used the scope on his rifle as a telescope to look down.

Countless vehicles and civilians are rushing from north to south. The mountain road is narrow. The more anxious people are, the slower the overall movement is. Are there still vehicle collisions, or the screams of injured people and the crying of children.

"There's a war in the north!" Ghost Joe walked to Dudley's side and whispered.

His eyes were very sharp, and he could tell at a glance that these were refugees migrating to the south. This situation could only mean that the war in the north had begun, and Byres was in full force invading the Iron Lion Principality.

Dudley looked at Mia beside him and said: "Byres' goal is to rule the entire continent, and the Iron Lion Principality is their biggest obstacle. This time Byres is well prepared. The Iron Lion Principality is very dangerous."

Mia's eyes showed longing for her relatives in her homeland and deep self-blame. She always believed that it was because she was unwilling to marry to Byres that she angered His Majesty the Emperor of Byres, which led to the death of the wind. The country was destroyed, and almost everyone she knew might have been brutally killed because of her. This feeling of grief and guilt has always made Mia worse than death.

Dudley stretched out his hand to hold Mia in his arms and said in a serious tone: "Byres had already planned to capture the Kingdom of Wind. Only in this way can Byres form a strategic advantage of surrounding the Iron Lion Principality on three sides, making it easier for them to launch Total war...the mainland will be in danger again..."

"It's a danger... maybe it's also an opportunity!" Dad came up from behind and said solemnly: "Only when Byres and Iron Lion fight hard will we have time to develop and grow!"

Dudley nodded, waved his hand and said, "Turn north. I want to see how the war between the two countries is going before I can make the next strategic arrangement."

Lulu accepted the order loudly, turned the rudder, and the airship flew towards the north.

The further north they went, the more refugees were on the road. Many of them had left the crowded roads and passed directly through the mountains and forests. On another road, they also found reinforcements rushing to the front line of the Iron Lion Principality. Hundreds of A vehicle raised black smoke more than 20 meters high on the forest road. Dad was worried that the regular army of the Iron Lion Principality would be equipped with some kind of device to prevent invisible airships, so he ordered Lulu not to get close and hung far behind.

Although the Iron Lion Principality is famous for its machinery, it still seems to rely mainly on reverse scientific research on the excavations of ancient civilizations. Ancient civilizations were all small city-states and did not develop the magic of "rail transportation" with large transportation capacity. In addition, Without air power, once a war breaks out, the ability to deliver troops is really poor. Sometimes when the reinforcements from behind slowly move to the front line, you don't know where the front line has been pushed.

In the final analysis, the troops of the Iron Lion Principality are still just the ancient Eastern fighting model. They just replaced the horses with vehicles and the bows and arrows with firearms. The tactical level has not been improved at all.
