Chapter 700 Becoming a kingdom, an empire, or even the only country.
When they realized that there was an obstacle ahead, the scout and the magician jumped off their horses in an instant without even a moment's hesitation.
The scout rolled over, raised his crossbow and fired. At the same time, the magician pulled out some kind of ball from the bag around his waist and smashed it directly into the ground.
Bang!
With a slight sound, a large amount of smoke suddenly emerged from under the magician's feet, and the thick gray-black fog blocked the vision of those who blocked the way.
The scouts and magicians had already put on masks that filtered the air and were engraved with [Viper Vision] the moment they threw the smoke bombs.
The whole process was neat, efficient and error-free. Even the elite troops in the Siyalanna army could not do better than this.
Blocking the vision is only the first step. Three crossbow arrows are shot in succession, attacking the enemy in a curved trajectory. The crossbow arrows also emit a whistling sound during flight, interfering with people's hearing.
The magician began to chant a spell, and the crossbow in the scout's hand was reloaded in an instant. The arrows were fired continuously, but they did not hit the target but were very far away. If you look closely, you can find that the arrows shot by the scout have blocked all the retreat routes of the blockers.
When both hearing and vision are disturbed, the most important sense for observing the outside world is lost. The next blocker will be like a little white rabbit falling into the eyes of a hungry wolf, and being bitten and eaten will be the only outcome.
But there was a small mistake in the scouts and magicians' thinking, that is, they did not seem to figure out which side was the harmless little white rabbit.
The arrow pierced through the blocker, but did not draw any blood. The scout's pupils suddenly shrank, "Illusion, damn!"
"well……"
A sigh was heard, and before the scout had time to think about why the sigh sounded so childish, he smelled a scent.
The taste of blood.
Looking back , he saw the magician's head thrown high up, with blood gushing out of his neck like a fountain. Before the scout could react, a big knife appeared on his neck.
Then he felt a chill on his neck, and his vision was thrown high up. In confusion and puzzlement, the scout looked at a very familiar headless corpse, and his mind fell into darkness.
"The first group."
After killing the two men, Lilia raised her left hand and condensed the fire element into a fireball without any spells. Then she threw it lightly, and the high temperature flames directly turned the two bodies into ashes.
After dealing with the battlefield according to Mo Cheng's instructions, Lilia did not stop and ran directly towards the border of Siyalanna.
The Siyalana army sent out ten groups to deliver messages, and she needed to kill those messengers before they could pass the message out.
With the help of the power of [Blade of the Abyss], Lilia was able to quickly catch up with the couriers who had run far away, but even so, it was still a difficult task to intercept ten groups of couriers.
"That guy always asks people to do such troublesome things..."
Lilia complained about Mo Cheng's unreliable operation. Although Mo Cheng had asked Isabella and Teresa to follow her to intercept, the success rate of intercepting all the balls was worrying.
However, Mo Cheng did not consider the success rate at all. He assigned this task to Lilia, and the only way to complete the task was to intercept everyone.
This was undoubtedly a very messy arrangement, but Lilia was not dissatisfied with it.
The reason...
Lilia holds the [Blade of the Abyss] in her hand. Each flash is hundreds of meters away, and the recovery time required for each flash is very short.
But Lilia remembered very clearly that not long ago, the distance she could flash using [Blade of the Abyss] was barely close to a hundred meters.
"Sure enough, it has become stronger again."
She would become stronger as she killed. This had already been proven on the way to the northern defense line. When Lilia went to eliminate the Siyalanna troops that were destroying the enemy's rear, she felt that her own strength was increasing in leaps and bounds as she killed.
She didn't know whether it was because of her mother's bloodline or because of the [Heart Martial Arts] that had never been found in any of the records.
At least when killing, Lilia could feel that Mo Cheng, simulated by the Heart Martial Art Mirror, would have some reaction, a reaction so weak that it was almost imperceptible, but it actually happened.
The feeling was like the stretching of her hairs, or the slight activation of a cell, so much so that Lilia was a little worried that her own image would suddenly come to life one day.
"After this matter is over, go ask Big Brother about it."
The Heart Martial Art Mirror was taught by Mo Cheng, and only he could answer his questions.
When she was at the Winterhold Magic Academy, Lilia had visited the library and the restricted book section many times, and even the private library of Archmage Muzel , but she did not find any records about [Mind Martial Arts].
You should know that the books collected there even have clear records and training methods for combat skills that have only appeared for a few years and now have no successors.
…
Mo Cheng's residence within the northern defense line.
"It seems that my guess was correct."
When Mo Cheng returned to his room, he found some small changes on the task panel.
Strictly speaking, there are some changes in the [Andair Series Continuous Quests].
A progress bar appeared below the ongoing [Aundair series of continuous tasks C: The Han and the thieves cannot coexist, and the kingdom cannot be half-hearted! ] , and the progress bar was filled to about 30%.
And a little further down, the words [■■■Continuous Task D: ■■■■■■■] appeared at some point, and the specific task name and detailed description were blacked out, making it look like an FBI action report .
At the same time, there is also a progress bar below the continuous task D, but it is only filled with about 20% or 30%.
But the appearance of this is enough. The appearance of this thing verifies Mo Cheng's speculation about the subsequent [Andel series of continuous tasks].
"Thirty percent. Judging from the territory that Aundair controls now, it should be less than 30 percent of the original amount. So, in addition to the territory, there are other things that need to be completed to complete the mission. It turns out that simply conquering the territory is not enough."
"So what else is needed besides territory?"
Mo Cheng had also made some guesses about this question, but he did not dare to jump to conclusion without more evidence.
Although Mo Cheng still didn't understand some things about the continuous task C, he understood the continuous task D whose specific content he couldn't see clearly.
And it is particularly clear.
"Sure enough, after taking back the territory in stage C, stage D is to expand the territory and become a kingdom, an empire, or even the only country."
