A dedicated person would then take them back to Hessenburg.\n\nIn particular, the skinless body of senior apprentice Declan must be recovered as strong evidence of Edward's rebellion.\n\nIn addition, the stronghold of [Weeping Woods] has been defeated. With the addition of [Deep Black Cave] and [Rust Lake], Hessenburg instantly holds three match points. It seems that it is not far away from completely winning this arc war.\n\nBut the Shadow Sect still has the power to counterattack. According to the information given by Anusha, theyThere are at least three senior apprentices, two of whom have experienced qualitative changes in magic power.\n\nThis means that it is difficult for the Knights of the Rhine to compete with them in terms of advanced combat power. Once Melanie replenishes her shadow energy and returns, the Weeping Woods may not be able to defend it.\n\nThis is the importance of personal power.\n\nWhen a qualitative change is reached, the opponent can only choose to avoid its edge and spend a lot of resources to prevent decapitation. It can only be said that at the apprentice stage, the senior apprentice is indeed an insurmountable mountain and the strongest combat power under the wizard.\n\n\"Report to Lord Ron.\"\n\nThe deputy leader of the Knights of the Rhine, an ordinary-looking young man, stepped forward and saluted:\n\n\"Except for the rune matrix deployed by Lord Declan, there are no traces of any defensive position's magic around. Do we need to send someone to arrange it?\"\n\nIt seems that the Shadow Religion never thought about fighting a positional war from the beginning... Ron fell into deep thought.\n\nSeeing that he didn't answer, Lancelot beside him couldn't help but asked: \"What's wrong? We finally managed to capture a stronghold. Shouldn't we build a defensive position like the Rusty Lake camp?\"\n\n\"No, we'd better leave this stronghold empty,\" Ron pointed to the depression not far away. \"The landform of [Weeping Woods] is fundamentally different from [Rust Lake]. It is not suitable for use as a camp. Moreover, we cannot spread too many troops, otherwise all three strongholds will be in danger.\"\n\n\"Well, that makes sense.\"\n\nLancelot nodded.\n\nBased on the victory conditions of the arc war, whether to capture one stronghold or four is actually almost the same.\n\nThe Arc War will not end until no one side captures all strongholds at the same time.\n\nLooking at it this way, they only need to continue to build the defensive position of [Rust Lake] and improve the spell matrix to become invincible.\n\nRested on the spot for about a quarter of an hour.\n\nThere was a \"rustling\" sound in the distance.\n\nA female snake man riding on a rhinoceros monster, followed by dozens of fully armed snake man warriors, swam out of the forest.\n\nLooking at the group of trainee knights sitting in the open space chatting and laughing, Acharya, who quickly came with his tribe to attack them, was a little distracted for a moment.\n\nShe was confused and said:\n\n\"Where are the enemies? Where have those shadow puppets gone?\"\n\n\"Your Excellency Chief, all the enemies of the Shadow Sect have been annihilated by Lord Ron. You are a step too late.\" A trainee knight responded with a smile, speaking of Ron with a tone full of respect.\n\nAnnihilation?\n\nHe turns out to be so strong!\n\nWhen he thought that his ally was not only good at making various magical pills, but also had such outstanding strength, Acharya's narrow snake eyes suddenly shone with excitement.\n\nShe quickly went to the depths of the depression and found Ron who was discussing countermeasures with Moonlight Knight.\n\n\"Let's do this for now.\"\n\nAfter formulating the development direction of the [Rust Lake] camp, looking at the excited Snake Chief, Ron smiled and said hello:\n\n\"I'm back. How is the situation over there in the deep black cave? Logically speaking, the Shadow Religion shouldn't have too many ambushes there.\"\n\n\"They are just a few sour little mice and not worth mentioning,\" Acharya waved his hand and stared at Ron closely, \"I heard that you are very strong, and I happen to be free now. Let's compete?\"\n\n\"Hahaha, Your Majesty the Chief must have misunderstood. I am just a wizard apprentice who likes to make potions.\" Ron scratched the back of his head honestly and declined the meaningless invitation.\n\nPrevious Chapter Chapter Table of Contents Next Chapter\n\nRecommended by book friends: Senior Nanami's Domestic Dragon Quick Travel: The Boss is All Sick Elf: I'm Just a Collector Dual Cultivation Asks the Immortal Path The Strongest Little Miracle Doctor in the Countryside Red Mansion I'm Looking forward to a Rain The Beauty in the Harem Delights Me After Traveling to the Ancient Tribe Mr. Mu, Please Hide Your Fans The Priceless Little Wife: The President's 33 Days of Asking for Love The Chaser When Tsundere Meets Paranoia I Fulled the Explosion Value Fantasy No Emperor My Career as a Taoist Priest, The Path of Evolution of Genius, The Great Brother of Time Travel, The Summer of Cicadas gl [K] Red.

It happened that he had recently studied Professor Forsyth's potion notes and reached a new stage. He had learned a very difficult potion recipe. It was a good time to consolidate.\n\nUpon hearing that Ron did not agree, Acharya, who had a relatively simple personality, instantly lost interest:\n\n\"Boring guy.\"\n\nBut whatever.\n\nFor the Ice Snake tribe, which is eager for this victory, the stronger Ron's strength is exposed at this moment, the closer they will be to victory, which is of course good news.\n\nWorking in a large group also requires \"professionalism\". If someone hires you and your performance is unsatisfactory every time, it will definitely affect your reputation and lead to the loss of potential customers.\n\nAfter discussing the follow-up planrow.\n\nRon and Lancelot led the knight team back to the [Rust Lake] camp.\n\nAnd Acharya, who had just arrived, also followed her, trying to get another batch of magical pills from Ron - she had distributed those bloodthirsty pills to the snake warriors before, and the effect was surprisingly good. Even if there were side effects, it didn't matter, the mother river would protect them.\n\nThe journey back to camp was safe and sound.\n\nPerhaps it was because [Weeping Woods] lost too many members in the first battle, even the shadow scouts that could be seen everywhere were reduced, and only a few were left looking at the Rusty Lake from a distance.\n\n\"Lord Ron, Captain Lancelot!\" The trainee knights patrolling the door all walked and saluted. Seeing that their team was unscathed, a trace of curiosity flashed in their eyes.\n\nSoon, after the explanations from his colleagues, he showed a look of surprise——\n\nThey successfully blocked the Shadow Sect and successfully captured the [Weeping Woods] stronghold!\n\nThis is a big win!\n\nAn unprecedented victory!\n\nSomeone asked about the details of the battle.\n\nAs a result, the more I listened, the more shocked I became, and the more I listened, the more stunned I became. Finally, when I looked at the black-haired young man in the team, the admiration in my eyes almost overflowed.\n\nHow can a water curtain resist the metamorphosis spell of a senior apprentice? How can magical summons be used in conjunction with long-range bombing by spirit familiars to defeat the opponent? How can one person shock the other two, and the two senior apprentices can capture and escape each other, with an astonishing record.\n\nAll in all, it's just a mess.\n\nI don't know whether others believed it or not, but the person involved, Ron, was happy to hear it and secretly decided to give extra meals to those trainee knights who had good reputations.\n\n\"Okay.\"\n\nLancelot appeared in time, stopped the increasingly outrageous topics, and ordered:\n\n\"Except for the trainee knights who patrol on time and have reconnaissance missions, everyone else has put down what they are doing and assisted the wizard apprentices in strengthening the construction of defensive positions. Before dark, I want to see the outer wall thickened by one meter. Do you understand?\"\n\n\"Yes, Mr. Captain!!\"\n\nThe crowd of onlookers began to disperse.\n\nAsking Lancelot and Acharya not to disturb him for the time being, Ron dragged a pale middle-aged man with his blank hands to a tent filled with various equipment.\n\nIn the corner, the numb Anusha was tied in place like a domestic dog. She noticed that the black-haired demon was back again, and her body began to tremble violently uncontrollably.\n\n\"Stop shaking.\"\n\nRon swung hard and threw the middle-aged man covered in purple worms in front of her.\n\nTaking a closer look, Anusha was stunned.\n\nPrevious Chapter Chapter Table of Contents Next Chapter\n\nRecommended by book friends: I became the darling of the underworld, Counterattack after marriage: The Debtored Bride, My husband is a dandy, the number one scholar in Great Xia, I became suddenly rich after forming a contract with His Highness Koi [Book] Good-for-nothing's Counterattack: The Ghost Emperor's Crazy Concubine, Unhappy Desire (1v1 h) My Chairman's Wife, Harry Potter's Model Aristocrat, The Sweet Pet Daily Life of a Female Couple in the 80s [Book], Adventures of the Little Black Dragon, Psychological Attack God-Level Perspective, Retired Soldier Wang Shen Qiye, Lin Chuxue, Missing My Spring Time, Dog Under the Princess's Skirt (1v1 H), Suspension Bridge Effect [Field H], Mix green onions with tofu, eat it!
