Is he still in the Weeping Forest?\"\n\n\"Yes.\" Relying on the physical sublimation brought by the knight's path, Lancelot stopped twisting half of his body and walked into the tent stiffly, \"I found him. He is indeed still in the Weeping Forest, but something is wrong.\"\n\nRon took the recording crystal in his hand and used his mental power to view the image inside.\n\nLooking at the picture, the senior apprentice Declan, who looked tired and even the runes on his face were dim, was hiding in a depression, surrounded by weird shadow creations.\n\nIt's obvious.\n\nThis is bait.\n\nThe Shadow Cult guessed that they might plan to rescue their own high-level combat forces, so they deliberately kept Declan around and waited for their prey to take the bait.\n\nOtherwise, with the overwhelming advantage of the Shadow Sect, it is impossible to be trapped by the rune formation controlled by a senior apprentice, and it will consume him to death.\n\nSo now before Ron and Lancelot, there is another multiple-choice question:\n\nEither give up Declan and let Hessenburg send more combat forces into the Black Mist Canyon.\n\nOr remain indifferent, continue to use the [Rust Lake] camp as the core of the operation, build defensive barriers, use defense as offense, and wait for the Shadow Religion to make major mistakes in decision-making before launching a counterattack.\n\n\"I don't think I can go.\"\n\nLancelot shook his head and said:\n\n\"If it were me, I would definitely place half of the combat force in the Weeping Woods, so that I can not only defend the stronghold, but also ensure that Declan, as a disguised prisoner, cannot escape control.\"\n\n\"On the contrary, I think this is a good opportunity.\" Ron had a different opinion.\n\n\"Want to hear the details.\"\n\nRon waved his hand, and a terrain map made of magic appeared in mid-air, roughly marking five points, and then explained:\n\n\"First of all, the Shadow Sect controls three strongholds in the Weeping Woods, Nightmare Swamp, and Howling Cliffs, and these strongholds are all outside the Black Mist Valley. This means that once they disperse their forces, it will be difficult to defend in a short time. Even if they can travel through the Shadow Creation, it will take some time. This is a certain fact.\"\n\n\"Secondly, the terrain around the Weeping Woods is relatively low. In addition, the Weeping Camphor trees growing there affect the five senses and the visibility is not high. This will also make it difficult for the Shadow Sect to pursue.\"\n\nThe magic power pulled the three points to form a curved arc. Ron pointed at the middle stronghold, which is where [Rust Lake] is:\n\n\"Judging from the distance, Iron Lake is the center of the Black Mist Valley. It is very close to any stronghold. If we unite with the Snake Tribe in [Dark Cave] at this time, guess what will happen?\"\n\nLancelot's eyes widened:\n\n\"Can any stronghold be flanked?\"\n\n\"Smart.\"\n\nRon nodded with satisfaction.\n\nTalking to smart people is all about convenience.\n\nThis move is mainly against the enemy, but he learned it from the Shadow Sect. Since you guessed that I want to rescue Declan, let's make a choice. Should I ambush or return to the defensive stronghold?\n\nAt this time, the importance of space spells is reflected. As long as there is a wizard apprentice on both sides who can arrange a small teleportation array, I am afraid that the arc war has ended.\n\nThere is no way, space wizards are like giant pandas in the zoo. Even those with space affinity are extremely rare. Once they appear, they will quickly attract the attention of the official wizards and take them away.\n\nThe more he thought about it, the more he realized that Ron's move was very subtle. Lancelot said with high spirits:\n\n\"Then I will go and inform Chief Acharya now, and we will go to the dark cave together!\"\n\n\"No.\"\n\nRon interrupted:\n\n\"Split the troops into two groups. You and I will go to the Weeping Woods to rescue Declan, and let Acharya take some trainee knights to the dark cave.\"\n\n\"Ah? But isn't this the opposite of what you just said?\" Lancelot was a little confused.\n\n\"The enemy is not stupid. If they don't even act at all, they will definitely choose to kill Declan and go back to the defense base directly.\"\n\nThere was another reason Ron didn't say.\n\nHe saw a familiar figure in Declan's rune formation.\n\n...Under Ron's command at all levels.\n\nThe entire camp moved quickly, completing the distribution of teams with astonishing efficiency:\n\nRon and Lancelot led twenty apprentice knights and five wizard apprentices to the Weeping Woods to rescue Declan who was trapped in a tight siege;\n\nPrevious Chapter Chapter Table of Contents Next Chapter\n\nRecommended by book friends: [Quick Time Travel] Erotic Strategy Game The First Assistant's Lovely Wife Runs with the Ball Bastard Daddy and Mommy Wants to Remarry Starting from the Deadly Black Orchid Traveling to Another World to Become a Kunpeng An Unmarried Otaku Girl Encounters a Traitor Fraudulent Marriage ABO Three Yanderes and One Drama Lin Zifeng Hua Yin Liu Shao·Fan Hua Falling Shadow Young Master, I'm Just a Girl Green Mountains Are Neighbors National Beast Taming: The Strongest Beast Taming Master Tragic Youth: The Sky is Very Blue My sweetheart is a top student Private diary Wildfire Jealousy (np) National destiny challenge: Awakening SSS level talent at the beginning All teachers are villains (book) My wife is a writer\n\nAll novels on this site are transcoded by search engines, just to allow more readers to appreciate them.

If the Shadow Sect had the idea of stealing, they would not be able to break through the heavily protected defensive position for a while, which would be enough to drag the large army back.\n\nBefore departure.\n\nRon gave three live leeches to Acharya, Lancelot, and Buck.\n\n\"Unless absolutely necessary, do not use my summons to respond to the enemy. If there is any emergency, use it to contact me immediately. I will give you a corresponding solution. If the situation is critical, the stronghold can be abandoned in order to preserve your strength.\"\n\nThe three of them nodded to express their understanding.\n\nIt was almost dusk now, and there was still some light left in the sky. Without further ado, the two teams immediately led their respective players to set off.\n\n...\n\n——Tap tap tap.\n\nDeep in the dark forest.\n\nRon's team kept moving forward at a constant speed, with circles of light cyan fighting spirit lines surrounding everyone——\n\nThis is a special group fighting skill that allows knights to save their physical strength and at the same time enhance their explosive ability in an instant.\n\nWe advanced for about a quarter of an hour.\n\nAll the way down, a piece of tall gray-yellow camphor wood gradually appeared as far as the eye could see. These magical vegetation with crying face patterns on their surfaces could produce the consumables needed by rune apprentices and were an important part of the Black Mist Valley's previous revenue.\n\nBut at this moment, no one paid attention to these real money trees. Many of the crying branches were covered with traces of spell burns. It was obvious that they had just experienced a battle not long ago.\n\nAnd on the main road not far away.\n\nDozens of shadow sect wizard apprentices wrapped in black robes have been waiting for a long time.\n\nBehind him are densely packed shadow creations that undulate like the tide.\n\nLooking at the undisguised Ron, a female senior apprentice with slender limbs but a barrel-like waist said with a low smile:\n\n\"I have long heard that there is a young man who defeated Atest Alchemy House, Death Cemetery, and Truth Wizard Academy in the Little Siren Cup. I finally met him. He is indeed different from the pig in Hessenburg. He got rid of that useless trash Anusha in one move.\"\n\n\"Just you guys?\"\n\nLooking at both sides of the Weeping Woods, Ron nodded slightly: \"It's reasonable. After all, there are three strongholds and there are so many shadow creations to maintain. It would be better to say that ten is the limit of your personnel arrangement.\"\n\n\"So this is your plan?\" Senior apprentice Melanie took off her hood, revealing a beautiful but pale face, \"Let some people go to the deep dark cave to ask for help. Don't you think that our intelligence network is just a decoration? Are you naive -\"\n\nThe words have not yet finished.\n\nA slash like a bright moon burst out from the knights' team like a strong wind.\n\nAt the same time, the well-trained trainee knights had set up a formation, tightly protecting Ron in the center, and then they all pulled out their fine iron swords and used long-range combat skills to hit the target.\n\nLancelot, who secretly received Ron's signal, showed an astonishing explosive power. He stepped on the ground, and the white flag in his hand was like a moonlight, wrapped in a layer of fighting spirit, and brought the stunned figures into the attack range.\n\n\"Despicable!\"\n\nMelanie swore angrily.\n\nHe was having a normal conversation one second, but turned violent and violent the next. He was just as rumored, even more arrogant and incompetent than the dark wizard.\n\nJust hearing the \"crunching\" sound of her body under her black robe, a shadow as rich as ink flowed out, forming a shadow curtain in front of everyone. It not only blocked the incoming moonlight, but also tied Lancelot tightly like a flexible snake, trying to control Hessenburg's strongest combat power present.\n\nBut something unexpected happened.\n\nFaced with the control, this senior trainee knight with curly blond hair actually threw away the flag, wrapped in fighting spirit, like a meteor rushing into their formation——\n\nshadow curtain asAs his wish came true, the shadow creatures present were also attracted by the living flesh at this moment, and they all came closer.\n\nImmediately afterwards, an overwhelming amount of light blue water balls were thrown towards them.\n\n[Advanced Spell·Liquid Bomb]\n\n——Bang bang bang!!\n\nQuantity leads to qualitative change.\n\nHundreds of water balls exploded in the densest place of shadows. In an instant, the sky was filled with shadow fragments. Countless shadow energy fell silent under the impact of magic and returned to its invisible form, revealing a thin purple barrier inside.\n\n\"I'm still alive...\"\n\nTaking back the living leech that had returned to the worm state, Lancelot patted his chest with lingering fear, his ears still buzzing.\n\nAnd this scene also made everyone in the Shadow Sect look dumbfounded——\n\nNo, what happened to you?\n\nI originally thought this was a tactic you used at the expense of a senior apprentice's combat power. Now you tell me that you were unscathed in the center of the explosion. Isn't that unreasonable?\n\nBut there was no time for them to digest.\n\nAt this moment, a middle-aged man wearing a gray butler's clothing appeared in the form of a spirit behind Melanie and others. He stretched out his hand with a helpless expression, and six blue and purple worms popped out.\n\nRon, who was standing among the knights not far away, gave a mysterious smile and snapped his fingers:\n\n\"Happy death anniversary.\"\n\nPrevious Chapter Chapter Table of Contents Next Chapter\n\nRecommended by book friends: Returning from Heaven (Father and Daughter) Describing You I Love Most Partially Favoring Dianshan (Rebirth) Reborn as a Crazy Wife, Big Boss Pampers Himself in Nanjing and Beiting Yuanfang, what do you think?
