Chapter 263 Maiev's Assassination (3rd Update)

That's right, now, it's time for the night elves to show their fangs again.

Today, the number of night elves has exceeded 20,000. Because they have not fought many battles after being trained, night elf archers and huntresses are only at the elite level, and the elite level is only the previous ones.

Most of the troops that can only be trained at the ancient tree level, such as mountain giants and claw druids, are only at the ordinary level. Those units that invaded once were much less powerful.

However, due to sufficient energy, all night elf units are now equipped with enchanted equipment suitable for themselves through the construction of many hunter halls. Although most of them are equipped with relatively low-level enchanted equipment, the improvement in strength is still unquestionable.

Yu Fei temporarily returned his consciousness to his original body. For such a major event as a full-scale invasion of the human world, he still needs to give orders.

In the eyes of many night elves, Father God, who had been sleeping for a month, finally opened his eyes again and ordered Tyrande in a deep voice: "Tylande, take my children to conquer more Territory!”

After Tyrande responded in a low voice, she began to make arrangements in an orderly manner. Seeing Tyrande's various orders calmly, Yu Fei felt very pleased.

This Tyrande finally looks like a true heroic unit. In the following years, Yu Fei decided to appear as little as possible in front of the night elves and the native elves who would come here later. After all, the god needs to maintain his sense of mystery. He only needs to communicate with a few heroic units.

Also, in the future, Yu Fei's clone of the Elf King will gradually come to the fore and serve as the person who manages the local elves. As the night elves were created by Yu Fei, he naturally did not worry about their loyalty, so he could safely leave them to a few heroes to manage.

However, the level of trust in the local elves was obviously compromised, so Yu Fei decided that it would be better to let his clone control it himself.

Under Tyrande's arrangement, about five thousand newly trained night elves stayed in the Windwhisper Forest and previously conquered human countries. One hippogryph knight in a city is obviously not enough to deter those humans who have perished.

Although there is a supporting puppet management class, mobile troops as a deterrent are still necessary. What's more, the loyalty of those humans who ostensibly surrendered to the night elves to gain management status is questionable.

In addition to the night elves who stayed behind, others included the night elves who had participated in several wars before; plus the vassal races conquered by the night elves, they formed an army of more than 20,000 units, and began to pour into the Severn Kingdom in large numbers. .

Those previously conquered were all weak human principalities or even states, so dividing the troops could achieve faster results. The Kingdom of Severn is one of the most powerful kingdoms in the human world besides the three major empires. It is extremely wise for Tyrande to choose to fight as a team.

With the night elves far exceeding the average strength of the human army, plus the number of 20,000, they are enough to crush one human army after another. If the troops were divided, it would not be easy for a small night elf force to escape after being surrounded by a large number of human armies.

No matter what, personal strength will be infinitely weakened in war. Even a thousand night elf warriors with average silver-level strength with various special abilities would be wiped out when faced with 50,000, 60,000 or even 100,000 average-strength human soldiers who were trainees.

As the vanguard of the night elves, Illidan led most of the highly mobile huntresses and hippogryph knights to cross the border of the Kingdom of Severn first.

His mission is not to siege the city, but to clean up the "soft tissue" between the "hard bones" in advance and cut off the passage between the cities selected as attack targets by the night elves and other places. The Huntress and Hippogryph Knight come and go like the wind and are more than up to the task.

Illidan led the troops assigned to him by Tyrande, bypassing the fortresses of the Kingdom of Severn and some subsequent cities, and began to wreak havoc in those towns. At the same time, the main force of the night elves led by Tyrande also arrived outside the Fortress of Brak, the western fortress of the Severn Kingdom.

Marshal Cole, as the current top commander of Braque Fortress, is very proud. The principalities and states to the west of Brak Fortress were said to have been beaten to pieces by the Amazons who had recently come back, which gave the Severn Kingdom an opportunity.

When Marshal Cole, a member of the Young and Strong faction, first learned of the news a month ago, he strongly requested Severn IX to send troops to quell the invasion of those small countries by foreigners. After all, it is only in war that the value of soldiers can be reflected.

However, due to the objections of those elderly ministers, Severn IX temporarily shelved this request. It was not until a month later that Marshal Cole was summoned for a confidential discussion.

Then, Marshal Cole led one-third of the kingdom's army to garrison the Brak Fortress. These days, Marshal Cole wakes up laughing from his dreams. It turns out that His Majesty the King is not not prepared to launch a war, but is prepared to continue to expand territory in the name of fighting off the aliens!

In a few days, when His Majesty the King's order arrives, he will be able to send troops to the small countries in the west, become a hero in the expansion of territory, and leave a heavy mark in the history of the Severn Kingdom. Every time he thought about this, Marshal Cole couldn't help but feel grateful to the alien race that invaded the small human country.

If it weren't for those foreign races, how could I, Cole, have the opportunity to become famous? Thinking of this, Marshal Cole, who was very happy, went up to the tower of the Black Fortress and looked westward at the vast land that he would conquer as the territory of the Kingdom of Severn.

Standing on the tower and looking westward, Cole seemed to see not the land, but his bright future. Huh? What is that? Marshal Cole suddenly saw a black line.

The black line gradually advanced and showed a rough outline. With the strength of a cloud-level warrior, Cole saw the true face of the black line. Thick branches and green leaves, it turned out to be a big tree! Cole suddenly realized. It seems that the land of these small countries in the west is quite fertile. There are such tall trees and they have formed a forest.

No! Cole suddenly reacted. How is it possible? Those giant trees are actually moving! The black line formed by the giant trees is getting closer and closer, and Cole has an ominous premonition.

At this time, because of the strength, only Marshal Cole on the tower saw the true face of the black line, and the other ordinary soldiers and the accompanying guards did not find it. No, although I don’t know what the situation is, I must be alert quickly!

Thinking of this, Marshal Cole was ready to ask the accompanying guards to notify the soldiers on the wall to enter combat status. However, just as he waved his hand to call a guard over, he suddenly felt a sense of alarm. At the same time, a Yunxiao-level mage on the tower also shouted: "Marshal, be careful!"

Cole reacted very quickly, and when the alarm just came up, he rolled forward like a lazy donkey. However, this evasive measure was in vain. I saw a dagger emitting a faint green light and a creepy breath, as if it emerged from the void, and it sank fiercely into the back of Marshal Cole.

This dagger was originally shot at Marshal Cole's original position. It stands to reason that Marshal Cole's extremely fast evasion should definitely avoid this dagger. But the dark green dagger actually drew a curve in the middle and shot into the body of Marshal Cole, who thought he had escaped danger. This made everyone who saw this scene stunned.

After the dagger penetrated Marshal Cole's back, his face quickly turned green and he was out of breath within two seconds - Marshal Cole, who had the strength of Yunxiao, was killed by this dagger!

Not far from the dead body of Marshal Cole, a figure wearing a black cloak suddenly appeared. It was not until then that Marshal Cole's guards reacted and rushed towards the figure while shouting "There is an assassin!"

However, the assassin who killed Marshal Cole in seconds did not care about the many guards who rushed over. It seemed that he just turned around casually, and countless short darts flew around. In an instant, more than a dozen marshal guards fell to the ground.

At this time, the wizard who warned Marshal Cole also muttered a spell, aimed at the assassin, and prepared to release his spell. However, a glimmer of light suddenly flashed on the target, and then it disappeared.

Just as the mage was upset about the assassin's escape, he found that he was surrounded by thick fog, and the prepared spell suddenly dissipated in an incredible way.

This assassin was naturally Maiev*Shadowsong who returned to the night elves. In order to make the war go more smoothly, Tyrande did not let Maiev lead the army to fight - Maiev was not suitable for frontal combat.

Like Illidan, Maiev was also given an important task to assassinate the leaders of the army and city of the Kingdom of Severn. Originally, Maiev was still worried about where to find the leader after she sneaked into the Brak Fortress through permanent invisibility and flashing. Unexpectedly, Marshal Cole appeared directly on the tower. Maiev would naturally not be polite to this guy who wanted to die.

A shadow raid killed Marshal Cole in seconds. Then the marshal's guards were also cleared out by the sword array. Finally, facing the mage, Maiev used the mage's nightmare fog skill, which was also easily solved.

Afterwards, Maiev easily left Brak Fortress again with the help of Blink and permanent invisibility, leaving behind only the army of the Kingdom of Severn in chaos due to the loss of its supreme commander.

However, they did not have much time to be in chaos - the main force of the night elves had already arrived at Brak Fortress under the leadership of Tyrande.
