If the horse in the previous life could be compared to the war horse that Aenarrio rode, it was probably the famous shire horse specially bred by the British for use as a draft horse.

However, compared with the Shire horses, Aenarion's war horses are not only not bulky and bulky, but rather nimble and fast. Carter's ordinary thoroughbred war horse, Alion, raced against him, and was left behind in less than a while. .

"Exit Aenarion, does your horse have the bloodline of the Caledonian horse?"

Not only is it huge, the giant horse under his crotch even exudes a natural sense of oppression. More than 100 elves have been on the road for more than half a day, but they have not encountered any wild animals.This is very unusual in rich Avalon.

"Yes, but more than that. This is a war horse given to me by the Queen herself, bred by the best horse breeder in Ulthuan."

Contrary to what many people think, riding a horse on a road often means letting the horse jog or even walk slowly, instead of galloping the horse as imagined, which is something that the horse will only do in emergencies or battles In a short period of time, if the horse is whipped too frequently, it is easy to use up a horse.

Even if the elven pure-blood warhorse is different from ordinary horses and has a better physique, the basic rules are still the same.

"Which way shall we go next? Should we follow the edge of the 'Mirror Forest', commonly known as the upside-down dense forest, and take the open land, or take a shortcut through the dense forest?"

When the Mirror Forest, one of the largest dense forests in Avalon, appeared in the field of vision from a distance, Enario and Carter, who had been driving for half a day, stopped temporarily, let the troops rest on the spot, and discussed the next step journey.

Walking along the edge of this huge forest, although you can also reach the Rock of Eternity, but because you have to make a huge bend, it will be at least two days slower than walking through the dense forest.

"I think it's faster to go to the mirror forest, we can't waste time." The eager Aenario almost didn't think about it, and planned to go to the mirror forest.

With the presence of the Kingdom of Avalon, relying on the efforts of a few old hunters who are familiar with the Mirror Forest and a large number of elf mages, after ten years of hard work, the Avalon elves successfully opened a straight road in the Mirror Forest, thus shortening the length of the road. The cost and time of crossing the Mirror Forest and providing a new route for merchants stimulated the economies of villages along the way.

However, this does not mean that the mirror forest is completely safe. There are many dangerous wild animals hidden in the huge forest.

Now it is even more necessary to add a group of corrupted beastmen, and even the real demons and their followers hiding in it. As early as the first month after Chaos invaded, the Kingdom of Avalon banned ordinary people from going straight through the Mirror Forest.

Carter was lost in thought.

Considering that I can't leave for too long, plus there is a fierce man like Enario, and with Carter himself and fifty masters under him, even if he walks through the mirror forest, there shouldn't be too much danger. The 50 people brought by Nariou 'look' also well-equipped and high-spirited.Even if they encounter all the spirits attacking all the horsemen, they can easily break through the blockade.

With Enario and Carter around, as long as it's not a front composed of real demons, wouldn't it be a matter of minutes to break through?

Although the current Ai Aotian is not the number one hunk in the Middle Ages, but his own strength is not too weak. Although I didn't see him hacking to death nearly a hundred beastmen alone, but I think it's not bad.

"Although walking through the mirror forest can shorten the time spent on the road, the possibility of encountering danger will also double. We need to be prepared to encounter corrupted animals and fallen people led by demons." Carter did not directly agree, but his tone was moving The meaning, Aenario immediately recognized it.

"I don't need to tell Carter about this, I will pay attention to it, then how about we take the straight road of Jinglin and strive to reach the Rock of Eternity within two days?"

"Then do it."

Although the noble titles of the two were similar, Carter was actually the commander of a [-]-strong field force, while Aenario had only a few hundred men responsible for ordering the ferry.Therefore, Aenario would put aside his friendship and ask Carter for advice in this kind of matter with a very humble attitude.

After starting preparations, Aenario took out many good things, and he actually carried several charging staffs with him.

The so-called charged staff literally means a stick that stores a number of low-level spells. It can be used even if you don’t know magic. If the spells in it are used up, they will be gone, because usually only relatively low-level spells can be stored. Spells are very expensive to make, and they are disposable items, so those with weak abilities can't afford them, and those with strong abilities don't bother to use them, so not many people use them in general battles.

This kind of thing is generally only used by the young children of the national army or big families.

The most common of these is a wand that stores the burst spell.

The so-called explosion spell is actually a low-level spell of Aksha's Wind. The caster will directly shoot a laser-like high-temperature jet that can fly more than 100 meters forward. If it is melted, it can be said that if you touch it, you will be seriously injured and die directly.

The second largest number is a spell called 'Stone Strike', which can summon a pile of boulders larger than a person from the void, and drop them into the enemy's camp from tens of meters in the air.

In addition, there are some miscellaneous basic spells such as fireball, or healing wounds, increasing power auxiliary spells.

They are all good things that can significantly improve the temporary combat effectiveness of an army.

Carter, who had played the Warhammer game, immediately asked Aenario to distribute these dangerous things to his soldiers after hearing the Explosion spell and the Stone Strike staff.

These two spells are powerful, but they are also extremely easy to accidentally injure. Whether it is the explosive staff that attacks 100 meters indiscriminately in front, or the stone strike that smashes boulders indiscriminately at an area, once the user does not operate properly, he will kill himself. There may be more people than enemies.

That's why Carter specifically asked relatively experienced soldiers from the First Corps who could hold their breath to be equipped with attack staffs.

"Of course, Exit Carter."

After the good things were divided, the river water was fetched from the nearby clean river, and the huge kettles on all the horses were boiled to fill up, the group of people began to drive to the mirror forest in the distance.

An hour and a half later, the group arrived at the edge of the mirror forest, where the straight road started.

Looking at the huge forest in front of them that they couldn't even look up, Carter and Enario looked at each other.

It's not that Carter has never seen forests. Although his hometown in his previous life has lost a lot of natural atmosphere due to industrialization, it is located in the southern mountains and forests can be seen everywhere.

But compared with the mirror forest in front of him, the trees in his hometown are at best saplings that haven't grown yet.

It’s no wonder that the locals would give this forest a strange name like Mirror Forest. If there wasn’t this straight road developed by the Avalon elves, Carter would go in unprepared, unless he relied on Chakra to walk on the top of the tree to identify the path. direction, otherwise getting lost is bound to happen.

................................................

Note 1: The original mirrorwoodsforest, because there are too many century-old or even thousand-year-old trees in it, they can cover the sky and block out the sun. Any elf who can't distinguish the direction will get lost in the mirror forest that looks the same no matter how you look at it, and will not starve to death in the end. It is death of thirst.It is precisely because these trees are almost the same in the eyes of elves who are not familiar with the forest, so it is named Mirror Forest.

Chapter 186 Still a Familiar Formula

Under the shade of the tree, more than 100 elves wearing armor and with sharp ears moved quickly.

Among them, I, a veteran of the First Corps, took the lead and walked in front, leaving the large troops far behind, and assumed the responsibility of exploring the way.

They held compound bows that were relatively more suitable for use on horseback. From time to time, they shot arrows towards places in the forest on both sides that looked suspicious and might be hiding enemies.

This has been a tradition since the Eagle Legion. Ever since they were attacked by beastmen hiding under the fallen leaves in the forest, the troops in charge of exploring the road had the power of fire reconnaissance under Carter's suggestion. Facts have proved that Most of the time, they were doing useless work, and only a few times did they discover the attack plan of the followers of Chaos in advance.

However, considering that there are generally not too many vanguard troops for pathfinding, the arrow vectors consumed by this level of fire reconnaissance are only a drizzle for an army, which is completely acceptable.

The mirror forest composed of huge trees, even when the sun is strongest at noon, still gives people a gloomy feeling, and it is difficult for sunlight to penetrate the tall trees to the ground.

This is already the second day that Enario, Carter and others entered the mirror forest.

Although it was gloomy and cold during the day, the environment was considered pleasant compared to the night.The forest, where even the sun hardly shines in, becomes extremely dark at night, and the faint light of the double moons of the Warhammer World cannot reach the ground at all.If you want not to be completely surrounded by the extreme darkness, you must light a bonfire to illuminate the limited space around you.

Although the bonfire can bring warmth to the elves, it also makes them lose the ability to detect unexpected things in the range of the fire.The terrifying environment that seems to be swallowed by darkness as long as they leave the bonfire is something that most of the elves present have never experienced, even the local Avalon elves.

Even the veterans of the Nagareth elves brought by Carter, these fighters who could fight back in the face of hideous and terrifying demons, seemed worried after spending the night in that environment.

Only Aenario and Carter are the only ones with normal mental complexions.

Carter, who has extremely keen senses, can perceive creatures within a certain range by hearing alone, even without eyes. Therefore, he is not particularly afraid of dark environments, so he behaves extremely calmly.

And Aenario didn't seem to feel it at all, after finishing his shift last night, he fell asleep and set off.

He who was worried about the whole Ursuan seemed not to care about other things at all.

Everyone who spent one night in this forest didn't want to stay another night at all, and they all quickened their pace and wanted to get out of the mirror forest before the next evening.

However, in this kind of narrow terrain with tall trees on both sides, which can be called an excellent ambush environment, a group of elves walked out without any crisis, but they underestimated chaos too much.

The five veterans who were in charge of finding the way ahead were shooting arrows at places where creatures might be hiding.

One of them just took out three arrows from the quiver on the horse, and clamped them between the fingers holding the bow body with his fingers, and then he skillfully put one of the arrows on the bowstring, aiming at a pile of fallen leaves. to shoot.

The sound of the bowstring being drawn is relatively clear in the quiet forest.

"Roar!!" Something hiding in it, through the gap, saw the nasty elf riding on the horse aiming at itself with a nasty piece of wood, and let out a roar after knowing that it could not hide.

"Enemy attack!!" The elf in the vanguard let go of his voice and shouted the moment he heard the roar.

The elf who drew the bowstring was not slow. He shot an arrow at the figure rising from the pile of fallen leaves, and then quickly shot another arrow within two seconds. The unstoppable momentum shot at the unknown creature, making a terrifying sound of skin and flesh cracking on its body.Then they pulled the reins and retreated quickly together.

The creature in the pile of fallen leaves was severely injured and fell down before revealing its full appearance.But from a deeper forest, more emerged.

Carter took a look and saw that the attackers were all 'old friends'.

"It's a mutated beast!" After shouting loudly, Carter slightly controlled the horse and took two steps forward, surpassing Aenario and leaving only his own figure behind him, and then immediately opened Sharingan, with a pair of gouyu The red pupils began to move up, down, left, and right at a very high speed, making people doubt whether he could really see things clearly, or if he was just doing eye cleaning exercises.

"The small number is about the same as ours. Their speed is very fast, and they are almost as fast as our horses. It is not a wise choice to compare their speed with them!"

Carter, who was talking loudly about what he saw, seemed to be talking in the air, but only Aenario, who was behind, understood that the other party was communicating with him.

"Then let us give them a relief and start again!"

Aenario, wearing a helmet carved with a phoenix, pulled out his rune magic sword, and responded with a bold and powerful voice. At the same time, he waved the long sword in his hand, and deadly flames appeared on it, constantly slashing at the sword. The body burns and emits high temperature.

Carter, who turned around, was slightly taken aback when he saw the weapon with obvious features, and a thought flashed in his heart in less than a second:

However, although he was puzzled, Carter would not be distracted for too long at the critical moment before the battle. He quickly recovered and picked up his Dragon Flame Halberd and shouted: "Form a square formation! Exit Enario, please The subordinates cooperate!"

As he said that, Carter kicked his legs and rushed into the forest on the left.

The most suitable environment for horses to fight is the plains, but this does not mean that the cavalry has no combat effectiveness in the forest, it just cannot form a powerful shock formation.

In this mirror forest composed of huge trees, in order to capture enough nutrients, the trees are still quite far away from each other, and the air strike in the middle is enough for Carter to act.

Although he couldn't advance at full speed, the speed brought by the horse still allowed Carter to come to a horned beast in less than a few seconds.The halberd in Carter's hand was extremely sharp, and he swung the halberd tightly with both hands, and slashed at the two-handed ax raised by the horned beast.

"Scared! Click!..."

The weapons of the two sides were not at the same level at all, the inferior ax was instantly shattered in two, its head also said goodbye to its body, flew high, and blood gushed out from the torn wound like a fountain.

Carter, who continued to ride his horse forward, killed three more horned beasts and a big horned beast wearing armor and holding a relatively high-quality ax in less than a moment, and the attack of the beastmen on the left was also delayed.

"Ha, drive!"

Aenario on the other side saw Carter's heroic actions, and immediately felt a desire to compare himself in his heart. He rode the huge horse with a shoulder height of two and a half meters and rushed towards the beast man on the right. go.

The flame-burning rune magic sword in his hand was like a hot butter knife, and the beastmen were like butter. None of them could survive two blows, and they were split in half by the magic flame-burning long sword, even several pieces.

Moreover, the wound was directly scorched due to the high temperature at the moment it was cut open, and blood could not be sprayed out.

The two officers of a troop, regardless of their own subordinates, stayed away from the front line and went deep into the enemy's line to kill the enemy. This kind of behavior is actually a very risky thing, but the two elves who killed the enemy in the enemy's line are not ordinary people.

"Fire arrows!"

Under the command of the three low-level officers of the First Corps, the two unfamiliar troops quickly formed a square formation. Under their orders, the soldiers in the back row began to attack those who were far away from Carter and Enario. The Beastmen, initiating the elves' characteristic rain of arrows.

Although the trees blocked a lot of arrows, more than [-]% of the arrows still hit the target, causing the Beastman to lose more than a dozen combat power in an instant. In addition, the miscellaneous fish that were dealt with by Carter and Enario have not yet They almost lost one-third of their troops when the war officially started.

"Hey!! Haw!!"

Seeing that he was about to lose, the leader of the Beastman clan hiding in the depths released his trump card.

A huge black shadow with a height of five or six meters rushed towards the elves' phalanx.

All the elves' attention was drawn to the huge creature shrouded in shadow.

Chapter 167 Battle of Beasts

When the huge black figure rushed towards the straight elf, it bumped into a hundred-year-old tree with its strong body.

The thick tree that required several elves to hold hands was easily pushed down like a small sapling.

This scene made the Avalon elves, who had never experienced high-intensity battles against giant beasts, feel chills all over their bodies, and their minds went blank. No matter how the Nagares elves next to them explained the precautions for facing giant beasts, they didn't know anything, just Numbly maintaining the movement of raising the shield and holding the gun.

Seeing the unreliable performance of the Avalon elves around him, no matter how calm they looked, the officers and soldiers of the First Corps who had already started cursing in their hearts still had to continue fighting.It's not that they are not afraid, but that they believe that their regiment commander will, as always, deal with the incoming enemies, and they only need to hold the front line.

After half a year of fighting in the South and North to escort the people, Carter's powerful image has already taken root in the hearts of the soldiers of the First Corps.

"Qing woo!!"

After making a strange cry, the huge figure finally revealed itself.

It was a monster that broke through the bottom line of normal people. It was obviously mutated from a bird, but its body was magnified countless times, like a mountain of meat.The ordinary bird's beak was mutated by chaotic energy, and it became as sharp and narrow as it was seen, and the mouth was full of fangs.The feathers on the body even glowed with a strange blue-gray light, as if they were no longer soft feathers, but turned into a steel-like material.

Other body parts have also undergone strange mutations, but if it is scary, it is the faces on its chest.

Those faces were hideous and terrifying, showing expressions of incomparable pain.The details are as if the real head was taken off and directly embedded in its chest, and the mouth will follow the movement of its body, opening and closing like a silent wail.

"drive!"

This mutated gigantic bird revealed its real back, which greatly boosted the morale of the Beastmen. The horned beasts, big-horned beasts, and low-cornered beasts near the giant bird hid behind the giant bird and launched an attack again.

Although the giant beast was terrifying, Aenario was not afraid at all, and rode his horse to meet him without hesitation. The flaming long sword in his hand kept slashing and killing any beastman who dared to stop him.

From time to time, he controlled the giant horse to an emergency stop, leaped high and kicked the head of the horned beast with its front hooves fiercely. The ugly face was instantly dented like rubber, and the blood was like a Money gushes out.

A big horned beast wearing low-quality armor and holding a two-handed ax saw the horse jumping high and thought it was an opportunity, so it immediately attacked Aenario from the left rear. Seeing that the ax was about to hit his lower back with the wind pressure, Aina However, Rui Ou turned half of his body extremely quickly, and the rune magic sword in his hand slashed at the two-handed axe.

"Kacha!" Before the sneak attacking bighorn could even react, the ax and hands were cut off, and a huge wound was drawn on its chest, and it twitched and fell to the ground roaring.

Aenarion and his warhorse are considered huge individuals in their own race, but neither the warhorse nor his own movements appear stiff and clumsy. On the contrary, their movements are quite agile and fast. Anyone who tries to block or attack them Beastmen, often attacking at the beginning, a long sword burning with deadly flames has come to them and took their lives.

"Let me take care of the pain for you!"

Shouting loudly, Aenario's left hand holding the rein suddenly pulled out a cylindrical object from the front of the saddle.

It was a charging wand, and Aenario aimed the white-painted end at the giant bird charging towards him not far away, and then pressed a button on the back.

"Zixiu!..."

There is no need to chant, no seal, and no need to guide the wind of magic. From pressing the button to activating the magic inside the staff, a total of one second has passed.

A bright yellow high-temperature laser flashed past, and all substances encountered on the way were vaporized or melted into high-temperature liquid.The abdomen of the giant bird that was hit was directly pierced with a huge wound half a meter long, and the mutated internal organs and blood gushed out as if it didn't cost money.

"Alas!!!!"

The pain made it stop, and it let out a high-decibel cry that could pierce the eardrums. The beastmen hiding behind it covered their ears in pain and fell to the ground. Blood fell to the ground, and Aenario's condition was not much better, he turned his head in pain and covered his ear facing it.

The elves' long ears are not just for seeing. Compared with ordinary humans, their hearing is more sensitive, so the pain is also stronger.
