Green Monster Epic

Chapter 850: Border, Ambush

After spending a few more days in Green Lake Town, Hamar bid farewell and departed for Namur Fortress, the largest city of the Green Field Tribe, to visit the various members of the Thorns Ring organization.

Originally, according to the itinerary, the dwarven envoy should have passed through Namur Fortress first before visiting Green Lake Town, but the dwarves' intelligence organization gathered information that the current leader of the Thorns Ring organization was the Green Field Tribe.

However, with Allen, the chieftain, not present, the actual ruler of the Green Field Tribe was their tribe's legendary mage elder. Therefore, in order for this trip to be successful, Hamar deliberately took a detour from the Tagan Desert to Green Lake Town first.

And the results of this visit were remarkable.

Although Albad, the small earth goblin archmage who actually held power, did not give a clear answer on the alliance, Hamar and Orenzi, the mayor of Green Lake Town, reached an agreement on learning and trade cooperation.

This is understandable.

The dwarven kingdom is certainly more powerful, and it should be an honor for the other party to look up to a small tribe in the wilderness, but the purpose of the dwarven alliance is not difficult to guess.

In this era of constantly gathering war clouds, any alliance decision cannot be easily reached.

But being able to establish closer ties has laid a solid foundation.

Naturally, exchanging benefits step by step in the future will bring them closer and closer to their goal.

When they arrived at Namur Fortress, the members of the Thorns Ring organization had also received the news and sent influential figures from their respective tribes to meet with Hamar.

The two sides met in the council building of the Thorns Ring organization and had a series of insightful exchanges.

Just as their representatives were meeting, a convoy from the Green Field Tribe escorting spoils of war from the south slowly drove in, immediately causing a small commotion in the fortress.

It is hard to say whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, but Allen had argued strongly to exempt the northern tribes from the first wave of reinforcements, but this also caused these tribes to miss an opportunity to make a fortune.

Although each tribe had sent legendary powerhouses to oversee the operation, and they had obtained no small amount of merits and spoils of war, most of these things ended up in the pockets of these powerhouses, and naturally, not much would fall into the tribes' hands.

Even so, the major tribes still gained a lot.

At least, based on the wealth of their respective tribes, it was a considerable supplement.

Even Hamar and his entourage, who happened to be there, couldn't help but reveal a hint of greed and envy in their eyes when they saw the long convoy loaded with countless equipment and resources.

"Congratulations to everyone on winning a great victory.

I'm afraid the arrogant and greedy humans didn't expect that they would suffer such a big loss at the hands of the wilderness warriors they look down on!"

The dwarven intelligence system had long learned of the Rose Principality of mankind's misfortune.

The wilderness coalition's military operation not only caught mankind by surprise but also impressed the other three major civilizations, each with different ideas.

What was especially surprising was perhaps the strength displayed by Allen, the bear goblin powerhouse who had reportedly advanced to demigod status in less than a century, on the battlefield, which was approaching that of a saint.

This was a great shock to many people and forces, and it also further verified the speculation of many forces about his future goals.

The dwarven temple and kingdom, on the other hand, were late to the party.

They did not, like the elves, humans, and wilderness temples, realize that Allen was walking on a forbidden path.

Therefore, they were even more surprised and admired by the tyrannical power displayed by this genius wilderness powerhouse and rising leader star.

"These are all thanks to our tribe's Lord Allen.

On the contrary, we clansmen are somewhat ashamed!"

Albad and Svara, and other members, had both pride and pride on their faces, as well as some shame and self-reproach.

The leader, who should have been high above, enjoying the offerings of all the clansmen, was fighting to the death on the distant front lines, fighting for a bright future for the tribe.

On the other hand, they, the clansmen who should have been fighting for the tribe and winning a better world for their families and relatives, were safely staying in the tribe's territory, enjoying the tribe's comfortable life.

Such a contrasting situation would be difficult to find in any other tribe in the wilderness, but in the Green Field Tribe, it seemed to have become the norm.

"Heh heh heh."

Hamar stroked the small braid on his chin: "That's also because your chieftain is strong enough.

With him taking action, you are naturally not needed!"

"Hey."

Just as the dwarven special envoys and the members of the Thorns Ring were talking happily, in the distant northern hills, an elven squad was nimbly shuttling through the dense trees growing on the hilly land.

"After crossing this mountain forest, we will arrive at the territory of those dwarves.

Last time we fought the dwarves, we were at a disadvantage.

This time, we must get back the face from them!"

"Does everyone have confidence?"

"Yes!"

"Good!!

Act according to the previously formulated plan!"

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

A dozen elven scouts scattered around, each setting up the trap tools they brought in this not-so-unfamiliar place.

Since the humans took the initiative to start the war with the orcs, the border between the elven and dwarven kingdoms has never been able to calm down.

Although small-scale conflicts had occurred in the border buffer zone between the two countries before, they were not as frequent and fierce as they are now.

Whether it was to gather military intelligence from the enemy's front lines or to intercept scouts sent by the other side, both sides increased their control and search of the border, which made the border buffer zone between the two countries full of murderous intent.

Elite scouts left the city in teams at dawn and dusk, but it was difficult to see them return safely.

This time, the target of the scout team led by Vinnie Shan was not clear.

They were just trying their luck to see if they could ambush a group of dwarves who were out and about.

Carrying a longbow did not affect Vinnie Shan's actions.

While swaying on the branches, she did not forget to listen carefully and look into the distance, cautiously observing the surrounding movements, and occasionally jumped off the trunk to make some arrangements on the ground.

More than half a magic hour passed, and a crisp bird call came from behind.

After hearing this bird call, Vinnie Shan also stood up with satisfaction and evenly sprinkled a handful of dead leaves on a magic tool, covering up its existence until it was flawless.

After doing all this, Vinnie Shan took another light leap and returned along the original path.

Returning to the place where they had dispersed before, her team members had also returned long ago, either solemnly and coldly closing their eyes to rest, or nervously using magical means to monitor the surroundings.

"Everything is arranged properly, next it depends on our luck!"

Vinnie Shan stood on the branch, not falling to the ground.

She made a few gestures with her hands and whispered in her mouth at the same time.

Then her figure gradually blurred and disappeared before everyone's eyes.

The elven squad warriors received the captain's gesture order and rushed to their previously selected hiding places.

The remaining rogue war profession cut off the rear, gently erasing the traces left by everyone, and then his figure disappeared into the shadow plane.

Time passed slowly, and several magic hours passed quickly.

The sky also turned from night to day, and until the sun shone on this land, there were gradually many early-rising birds singing in the jungle looking for food.

One wild boar, fox, and other small and medium-sized animals did not know where they came from, and began to shuttle through this dangerous jungle, causing a burst of rustling sounds.

The elven squad, hidden in the shadows, remained unmoved by the surrounding activity. Some small animals even relieved themselves around them, bringing waves of stench, yet they showed no reaction, like emotionless stones.

The sun rose from the east and set in the west. A day and a night passed just like that, and nothing happened.

The jungle was not quiet in the darkness. Nocturnal creatures emerged as the night enveloped the wilderness, and they all came out to move around. Wolves howled in the distant valleys, and the eerie calls of nightjars and owls echoed from the tall treetops.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

A mountain goat, not usually active at night, suddenly stumbled into the ambush set up by the elven squad. It immediately caught the attention of the elven members who had been lying in wait for a long time. However, after clearly seeing the figure of the uninvited guest, the eyes hidden in the shadows regained their calm.

Just when everyone thought that the next wait would be tedious and long, the bushes on the west side rustled slightly again. Then, black shadows emerged silently from the jungle like ghosts, gradually approaching the ambush site set by the elves.

Effort eventually pays off. After a day and a night of sleeplessly waiting, they finally saw an opportunity for the prey to enter the arena. The lurking elven members widened their eyes, quietly watching their opponents approach their death ground step by step.

“Stop!”

Just as the stocky and burly dwarves were about to step into the trap, a dwarf scout at the front seemed to notice something. He suddenly lowered his voice and issued an instruction. Immediately, the team of more than twenty dwarf warriors entered a combat state, while maintaining a certain formation and scattering around.

The scout captain who issued the warning continued to observe intently for a long time. At the same time, he took out a magical item and activated it. As a faint energy aura spread around, the scout captain's consciousness also drifted around with the energy dissipation.

A few minutes later, the energy vibration on the magical item came to an abrupt end. The scout captain also regained control of his body. The dwarf captain, who had opened his eyes again, looked around at the seemingly unchanged environment and then issued a new order: “Continue forward.”

Rustle! Rustle!

The sound of the dwarf warriors' bodies rubbing against the surrounding tree branches, although weak, still caused the originally noisy chirping of insects to stop. As they continued their silent march, they did not know that they were getting closer and closer to death.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The attack came too suddenly. Hundreds of arrows suddenly shot from all directions, covering the entire team of dwarf warriors. By the time everyone noticed something was wrong, some had already been unfortunately hit by arrows.

“Enemy attack!”

The warning was given too late, but this did not prevent the brave and agile dwarven soldiers from reacting in time. Walls of earth and stone fell to the ground with the scrolls thrown by the warriors, quickly forming simple fortifications around them, while also burying and protecting the bodies of several companions who had been hit by arrows.

Boom! Boom!

Just as the dwarven formation was about to close, a huge wave of fire suddenly surged from the ground, tearing apart their defensive formation!

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Hiding on the tall tree trunk, Vinnie-Shan, a magic archer, narrowed her bright phoenix eyes slightly. Her right hand kept flipping, unleashing arrows at the dwarven team in the encirclement.

The loud noise and fire waves that occurred in the field at this time were so conspicuous in the dark night that they would inevitably attract the attention of other dwarven teams nearby. Therefore, Vinnie-Shan and her team had to fight quickly and take down this dwarven team as soon as possible.

Magic arrows were occasionally mixed in with the rain of arrows. When they landed in the dwarven team, they always produced various magical properties, causing the targets she was staring at to constantly struggle on the line of death, and they would be ruthlessly harvested if they were not careful.

The elven warriors hiding in other places were also launching their attacks. Sword dancers and thieves, like ghosts, shuttled through the jungle under the cover of the deep night, constantly wandering around the dwarven team. Archers and part-time mages also shot their arrows and spells in a timely manner.

Like their scout teams, the soldiers they chose were generally those with speed and agility, or those who were proficient in magic. This way, they could act calmly whether they were fleeing or fighting.

Therefore, the elves were not worried that their attacks would be completely defended by the dwarven team, not to mention that the position the other party was currently in was set up with many props and traps by the elves.

One magic item after another was activated, and one mechanism after another was triggered. The short few minutes were like years for the dwarven warriors in the encirclement.

“Roar!”

A dwarf suddenly rushed out. As soon as he left the team, his body quickly swelled and twisted. Soon, a three-meter-tall iron-backed giant bear appeared in front of the elves.

Clang! Clang!

More than a dozen arrows hit the giant bear's body. On its gray-brown fur, bristles emitted a metallic luster, stubbornly blocking the enemy's arrows.

“Huff, huff!”

Thump!

Crack!

Crack!

The giant bear buried its head and charged wildly. Wherever it passed, the giant trees blocking the way collapsed under the heavy bear paws.

Behind the giant bear, the dwarves, with less than ten people left, followed closely behind the giant bear, quickly breaking through the enemy's encirclement.

Vinnie-Shan remained steadily on the tree trunk. Seeing the giant bear getting closer and closer to her, she carefully placed a dark arrow on the magic bowstring. With a force in her right arm, the magic bow suddenly turned into a full moon, the arrow pointing straight at the running dwarf in front.

Whoosh!

The sound of the air tearing could not catch up with the speed of the arrow's flight. The giant bear in front seemed to sense the danger coming. A magical aura suddenly appeared in its body, and then two thick stone shields surrounded its body.

Puff!

The arrow easily pierced the two stone shields stacked together and continued to fly towards the giant bear's chest without slowing down. Seeing this, the giant bear, although panicked, did not panic at all. Its wide bear paw chopped forward, and at the same time, its two short legs stomped hard on the ground, sending the giant bear's body, weighing several tons, flying straight up, dodging to the side.

The bear paw was pierced by the arrow. Enduring the severe pain, the giant bear forcibly twisted its wrist, disrupting the direction of the arrow. Just as its body was dodging to the other side, it happened to brush past the heavy arrow with killing intent.

Puff!

The giant bear, who had narrowly escaped death and was showing a look of rejoicing, looked in shock at another magic-breaking arrow that had appeared in his chest at some point, deeply piercing his heart. As the severe pain rose, the power was slowly fading from the other party's body!

“Damn it, Wilde!”

The companions behind the giant bear belatedly realized what had happened. The scout captain, who knew the other party's identity, was even more shocked and rushed forward, his daggers constantly flipping, splitting open several arrows and spells that took advantage of the situation, while also not hesitating to drop potions and scrolls on the opponent's body that was gradually transforming back into human form.
