Chapter 100 Successful Attack

The undead don't need a camp, but the ghost emperor's army has set up a camp for some new troops this time. Among them, the gray dwarfs and trolls mainly live on one side, while the other side are giant corpses, ogres and other monsters.

The undead still continue to attack the gate and the city wall, and the guards still pour down the holy water slowly - as long as there are no other races to participate, the low-class undead alone will not pose much threat, and the holy water and rockets alone are enough.

On the side of the Archangel Fortress, Howard led more than 100 guards to sneak out of the city. They climbed directly over the mountain wall and then slid down the rope from the cliff.

There were not many undead wandering around, but a few of them were quickly destroyed by the guards with crossbows. Let's go!" Howard made a gesture, and everyone followed him closely and began to march.

After a large circle, the team arrived at the designated place - under a steep cliff, and below was a huge camp. Man-eating monsters mainly live on the left side, next to a huge pile of corpses full of corpses dragged back from the battlefield; on the right are gray dwarfs and other creatures, which are relatively large, and do not use corpses as the main food.

Howard's mouth was upturned, and he ordered his men to start lurking left and right, and he walked into a dark tunnel alone. He walked not far and stopped next to a glowing moss with a very inconspicuous cross mark on it.

"Are you ready?" He asked in the dark and didn't care if there was anyone there.

A pair of bright spots suddenly appeared in the dark, followed by two pairs, both of which showed red. Are you here?" One of them replied, "We are ready!"

"How's it going?" He asked anxiously, hoping that the key problem of his plan to succeed had been solved. "No problem!" The second dark elf said confidently, "I have drugged their drinking water and checked all the positions of the sentries!"

"Then let's take action?" Howard was still a little worried, "I'm watching your actions on the cliff!"

"Don't you believe our strength?" The dark elf smiled and said, "Then look good!"

The dark elf floated down the cliff like black smoke and began to hide outside the camp. There was still continuous noise and noise in the camp. I don't know what they had for dinner. All the dwarfs and trolls were noisy and calmed for a moment.

The four sentry towers are brightly lit, and each tower has two gray dwarfs standing guard, but today they also don't have peace of mind about their work. Some are sleeping soundly, and some are still laughing.

Howard reached into his arms, and the teleport scroll in his arms was still there quietly. He felt some safety in his heart and began to observe.

But the dark elves moved quickly. They climbed two of the sentry towers from the bottom of the tower and appeared in front of the Grey Dwarves at the same time, quickly resulting in their lives with machetes. Then, while the sentries of the other two towers did not find it, the crossbows in their hands made a soft sound.

"It's really awesome!" Howard saw that the dark elves were very particular about choosing towers - the towers climbed up had sentries sleeping, and there was no way to shoot with crossbows, while the rest of those preparing for long-range shooting were all playing, and the standing positions were visible.

One of the gray dwarfs who was hit by the arrow did not shout, but staggered down from the tower. At the moment of landing, the last dark elf flashed out of the darkness and grabbed the body quickly and dragged it into the darkness.

"A great assassin!" The captain of the guard whispered in Howard's ear, "Your Highness has invited such a powerful person this time. It seems that our task can be completed!" By the way, he complimented: "After the plan succeeds, we can definitely overwhelm him!"

He smiled, made a gesture, and led the guard to start falling along the cliff.

After reaching the ground, more than 20 of the guards began to follow Howard, bypassing the outside of the camp and arriving next to the scheduled railing. Here!" The guard walking in the front found an entrance, and there were obvious traces of new cuts on the railing.

The guards penetrated into the enemy's camp one by one, and the gray dwarf emitted a strong smell that made everyone feel a little sick. But they didn't stop and found a wooden house to store food under the leadership of the second prince.

"Here it is!" The second prince said happily, and then began to pour half of the animal oil on various large bags of grain.

After leaving two guards, Howard drilled out of the initial gap, began to bypass the camp, reached the side of the corpse pile, and then repeated the process just now and poured animal oil on the corpse.

Two locations began to ignite at the same time, and the guards began to retreat.

After all retreating to the cliff, looking at the panicked gray dwarf and the blazing fire below, Howard laughed - everything went so well that it was ridiculous!

※※※

"Success?" The old Duke jumped up from his chair and went out before he could take his cloak. When I rushed to the top of the city, the fire below illuminated half of the cave.

"I didn't expect it to be a real success!" Leiris greeted him and said, "Father, this time we really underestimated the Second Highness!" He smiled happily: "Look back and see how these guys fight against us! - I'll apologize to Your Highness later!"

Looking at the fire, the old Duke narrowed his eyes and observed it carefully. Among them, the black smoke was very light or almost almost nothing. There was an imperceptible sneer at the corners of his mouth, but he said, "Okay!" He turned around and said to everyone, "Prepare to line up to welcome the second Highness's victory!"

※※※

"Someone is wrong!" The old duke directly poured cold water on Lerith's head.

After the return of His Royal Highness, the old duke led several generals to praise the victory very warmly, and began to write to Igna the Great in front of His Highness, praising this extraordinary sneak attack. Everyone knows that His Highness took this adventure to lead the guards and set fire to the food of non-undead creatures, so that there are not many non-undead creatures in the siege battle, or cause them to escape completely. For the defense system of the Archangel Fortress, which mainly resists the dead, this is a A great achievement.

However, after that, the old Duke called his son Lairis and Enrique, who was half his student, into his study.

"What's wrong?" Enrique asked, "What the teacher said is wrong, does it mean that the plan is too smooth?"

"This is one of them!" The old Duke looked solemn: "One more thing - tell me, what's wrong?"

"Does the teacher mean... His Royal Highness the Second Prince exaggerated his achievements this time?" Enrique hesitated: "But from what I saw, this doesn't seem to be fake... Or they haven't finished burning this time?"

"Father, what are you talking about?" Leiris was very strange: "You don't think this plan is acting, do you?"

"Hmm!" The old Duke showed displeasure: "Think about it, is there anything strange about the flame?"

The two commanders began to recall the fire they saw on the tower: the fire was burning brightly, illuminating half of the cave, and then the cavemen called for water to put out the fire. Later, the fire gradually weakened, and black smoke rose... black smoke? ...Black smoke! It's not right!

The two raised their heads at the same time: "Black smoke! It's not right!"

"What's wrong?" The old Duke asked.

"This... there was no black smoke at the beginning, just the flames soared into the sky... I think..." Enrique stammered, "Is it right to say that there is no smoke at the beginning!"

"Yes! That's what I mean!" Rileys quickly continued.

"Yes! It's on the flames!" The old prince's face was angry: "All the food in our world is very watery. If such a large amount of food is ignited and burned, there must be thick smoke - but think about it, the food and materials burned in this sneak attack have no smoke, just flames!" He asserted, "What is burned this time is definitely not food, it should be all the wood and debris laid underneath!"

"Ah?" Although the two guessed it, they were still surprised when they were told. Then I will tell the Second Highness as soon as possible!" Leris said.

"Hmm!" The old Duke shouted, "Don't tell outsiders about this for the time being - I haven't figured out the first doubt yet!" This mission is so smooth that it is suspicious!"

"Teacher, don't you think... Your Highness will collude with the dead, do you?" Enrique said, "This is too... outrageous!"

"It may not be collusion, but there may be other situations!" The old Duke waved his hand: "A lot of things are not easy to say now!" He continued, "I have to check it first before making plans!" Turning his head and staring at his son and students: "You must be careful to guard the city. Don't give the responsibility of defending the city to anyone else until this matter comes out!"

"Yes!" The two answered in unison.

"Also, I'm going to entrust the Blue Mermaid to investigate this time. Don't reveal anything to the outside!" After saying that, the old Duke sat in the chair and fell into thinking.

Seeing that the old Duke began to think about problems, the two did not dare to look at each other.

Half a sound, the old Duke raised his head and said, "Write to the elders of the Blue Mermaid and ask them to send someone to come - secretly at this time - find a nearby city to contact and don't disturb others! - Enrique, you are responsible for this matter!" Today's discussion came to an end.

"Yes!" Enrique answered, and then withdrew from the door with Lairis.

"Do you think this situation is true?" Leris asked when he left.

Enrique sighed: "Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case! The teacher's words always make sense - don't worry too much, I will deal with it carefully!"
