Chapter 0669 Cat and Mouse Game
A cat-and-mouse game was played in the depths of the Magic Forest...
In a dark bush, the black soil suddenly cracked, and a large group of black beetles emerged from it, gradually rising into a strange human shape.
After the insect wizard Bilis condensed his insect body, he sensed the other "baits" from a distance, and his face immediately became very ugly.
In order to avoid the pursuit of the powerful elf, he had dispatched four suspicious troops to escape to different areas. And now, it seems that only two can be sensed.
That is to say, during the time he was struggling to escape, two insect armies with more than 10,000 people had been completely destroyed. And with the destruction of these two insect armies, there were also 6 demonized mantises.
After all, the demonized mantises belonged to his standard guards. If they were not arranged in the suspicious troops, it would be difficult to deceive the forest elves who regarded the Magic Forest as their home.
Under the intimidation of the powerful elf, the insect wizard Bilis did not dare to show up at all, and could only frequently break the tail of the gecko in an attempt to divert the opponent and escape smoothly. But unfortunately, the speed of the insect army traveling underground was too slow. Even if the elves were led astray for a while, they would quickly eliminate the suspicious soldiers and find the news of the insect army again.
Those horned eagle archers who were "accomplices to the tiger" usually did not dare to appear in front of the demonized mantis. Now they are also flying in the sky above the vast forest, relying on wind communication, plant communication, animal communication and other strange skills, looking for the news and whereabouts of the largest insect army everywhere.
After all, the magic forest is the home of the forest elves!
Here, they have too many ways and means to find out the traces of outsiders.
Therefore, after being forced out of the ground, the insect wizard Bilis became ruthless and divided the 120,000 insect soldiers and 18 demon mantises in his hands into four teams. They no longer traveled underground, but fled directly through the forest and the stream in four different directions.
At this time, large groups of insect soldiers could be seen running and hunting recklessly everywhere in the entire magical forest. The demon mantises that followed the team hid in the tree canopy with the help of the "grass and tree invisibility" ability. When the elf archers drove the horned eagles low over the treetops, they suddenly attacked and killed them.
With this method, for a time, the vast magical forest of hundreds of miles was full of elf archers being attacked and killed. And the Spear of Vengeance Ajiaye led an elite archer team to put out fires everywhere.
Wherever there were large groups of insect soldiers or demon mantises, they quickly rushed there with the help of the horned eagles.
Whether it was a dense swarm of insects or a cruel and cunning demon mantis, they were all ants that could be killed by the Spear of Vengeance Aigaye. Even if Bilis gathered all the demon mantises to attack Aigaye, it would only make her slaughter more happily. It was difficult to cause some damage to her with such a small number.
It was precisely because he recognized this early that Bilis simply broke up the formation of the demon mantises, letting them fight on their own, avoiding those groups of elves and strong men, and specifically looking for some lone guys to attack. Although this could not stop the destruction of the demon mantises, it could at least distract the opponent's energy and slow down their destruction.
After paying such a great sacrifice, the insect wizard Bilis turned around and fled to the southeast with a 30,000-strong insect army and six demon mantises.
When escaping before, the insect army had been desperately moving towards the edge of the west coast. Bilis was worried that the elves had already known his movements, so he could only send two decoys in that direction, while he led his army to the southeast hinterland.
Perhaps his decoy strategy worked, and a large number of horned eagle archers were indeed confused by the complicated enemy situation, and the main force of the pursuit was placed on a few decoys.
This gave Bilis ample opportunity to escape. After fighting and retreating to a safe area with an elf pursuer, he suddenly counterattacked with all his strength. Relying on six demonized mantises and 30,000 insect troops, the insect wizard Bilis directly strangled a dozen horned eagle archers who were chasing him, and then he fled into the distant mountains and forests unwillingly.
When the Spear of Vengeance Ai Jiaye heard the news and rushed to the scene of the accident, the strange insect army had already disappeared.
The furious Ai Jiaye immediately asked the elves who followed him to return to Tianshui City to report the situation here, and sent the nearby elf city defenders to block and intercept in front. And she herself set out again alone, following the few traces left by the insect army into the jungle.
…………
This is a rocky wasteland adjacent to the coastline.
On one side is the surging and violent sea tide, and on the other side is a slightly sparse low jungle.
The magic forest ends here. Those tall and straight huge ancient trees are hard to see. The only green that can be seen in these rocky wastelands is low shrubs and slippery moss.
In an extremely hidden cave on the edge of the coastline, a large group of vampire bats hang upside down on the damp and cold cave wall, huddled together. And around a dug out fire pit below, six young men and women sit silently with their bodies straight.
Three of them are wearing blood-colored armor, with blood-colored long swords on their waists, and their bodies are sturdy and strong. They are the three blood knights who have followed Mary for a long time, Thoros, Winsol and Jose. Sitting opposite them were the three level 2 blood elves that Mary had just recruited: Bonnie (female, archer), Candice (female, archer), and Leo (male, weapon master).
As for the little guys at level 1, they can only hide in the periphery, and are not qualified to get close to these strong people at level 2.
As for the master of all vampires, Blood Queen Mary was reclining on a stone platform with her eyes closed and meditating, while the old fox Wenlir stood respectfully beside her.
A subtle sound of flapping wings came from Pu Ling Leng.
A vampire bat landed in the pile of rocks, and looked around for a long time with its small eyes. After making sure that no one was following it, it opened a small pile of rocks and got into the cave.
With a burst of rapid and bizarre twisting and deformation, the vampire bat transformed into a young man, tiptoed to Wenlir's side, and whispered a few words into his ear.
After reporting the information, the young man transformed into a vampire bat at the entrance of the cave and crawled out of the cave, flapping his bat wings again and flying towards the nearby forest.
"What's wrong?" Mary supported her head with her hands, lying on her side on the stone platform, and asked without even opening her eyes.
"Master, the sentinels who were just deployed on the periphery rushed back to report back. The number of elves patrolling today is less than half that of yesterday. Do you think?" Wenlier hurriedly bowed to answer.
Mary hesitated for a moment, opened her eyes and asked, "Where's Billis?"
"Lord Lord Bliss, the Insect Witch, has sent you three rescue requests..." The old fox Wenlier said with a bitter smile: "The Spear of Revenge is chasing him very closely. I heard that Lord Bliss's insect army is already less than 20,000. "
After these days of investigation, the vampires have figured out the specific information about the powerful elf!
"Do you think we should rescue him?" Mary squinted her eyes, her ruby-like scarlet blood pupils flashing with a faint cold light.
"Lord Insect Witch is also a combat wizard cultivated by the head of the family. If he is allowed to die in the Magic Forest at will, it will be a big loss to the future development of the Crimson Family." Wenlier always had a smile on his face. A gentle smile.
"Then you mean...rescue?" Mary smiled lightly.
"Of course we have to save him!" Wenlier also said with an apologetic smile: "But rushing directly to the rescue like this may not help the situation, and it may also attract the attention of the Spear of Revenge."
"Then what do you think we should do?"
"We might as well change the battlefield. The area around Tianshui City has now become a dangerous area. The elves have laid many traps there, waiting for us to crash into them. Instead of doing this, we might as well turn around and go north to let the war burn wider. Some……"
Mary squinted her eyes and listened carefully, but did not answer. The old fox Wenlier could only continue to analyze.
"First, we have to figure out what are we doing here?"
"When we come to Jialan Continent this time, our most important task is to help Lady Alice obtain the prophecy scepter. And to do this, we must bring together the strong men and elite legions in the central mountain range of the Elf Kingdom. Mobilize it.”
"So far, the Elf Kingdom has only gathered its elite main force and a large number of strong people near the south coast to prevent the fourth-level pale witch from bringing people into Jialan Continent. So even if we make trouble here again, they will We also don’t dare to draw troops and strong men from the south coast.”
"The head of the family has been killing elves on the southwest coast some time ago in order to attract the elves to send troops. Only when there is a vacancy in the central mountain range of troops can the head of the family's infiltration plan be implemented. By then, my lord, I wonder where you will choose to go?"
Mary couldn't help but snorted coldly when she heard this, and stood upright on the stone platform.
"Hmph, of course I'm going too... There are so many powerful people in the Central Mountain Range, and there are as many divine envoys as dogs. If I don't help, how can it be possible with just a few of them!"
The old fox Wenlier sighed secretly in his heart, but the smile on his face did not diminish at all.
"Then we should make the fight even more intense... It would be best if we can stir up a fight between the elves on the south coast and the pale witches. At that time, the pressure the family head may face will be much less..."
He finally figured out that his mistress, who looked fierce on the outside, was sincere towards the head of the family. He didn't even care about the danger of the central mountain range, and he didn't begrudge the vampire team that he finally managed to pull together, showing a willing attitude.
This made Wenlier couldn't help but secretly curse.
However, with the shackles of his bloodline, it was impossible for him to have any objections, so he could only pinch his nose and make plans for Mary according to her wishes. Anyway, he designed the strategy. No matter how the situation develops in the future, he will never let himself fall into a desperate situation.
So the old fox is still very calm inside! nt
