I draw a card first

Chapter 7 The Anticipated Attack
No matter how sad Lilith was, under the urging of the leading knight, Ivan and Lilith had to start the journey back to the territory in a hurry the next morning.

After bidding farewell to Lanster, who was also reluctant to part, the group started a long-distance raid.

At this time, Aiwen is very grateful that the paladin heritage comes with riding skills, let alone horses, as long as the level is up, dragons can ride! (The dungeon brushes the mount and dies...)
Therefore, although he was a little embarrassed at the beginning, he quickly found the feeling of riding a horse, and he was spared a lot of crimes.

(such as Eggy's sadness...)
As for Lilith, who was riding on the horse beside him, she was silent all the way, with distressing sorrow on her face, and her pale face and faint tears made people feel more pity for her.

It's a pity that, as a single dog for many years, Aiwen has no high-end skills to make girls happy. Apart from patting her on the head, it seems that he can only accompany her silently in the end.

Well, the rhythm of being single until death...

Of course, these are minutiae (tears...), what really caught Ivan's attention was
——How to deal with the next attack!
Since the other party has already made up their minds to kill the lord and the heir directly, it is absolutely possible to attack Lilith... No, it should be said that it is inevitable!

Lilith's mother had long since died. If Lilith, the last bloodline of the Lion family, was gone, the territory would inevitably fall into a kind of chaos called losing its leader.

No matter what the other party's final conspiracy is, this ending is what the other party wants to achieve.

Ivan discussed this point of view with Lancet before, and it was affirmed by the Druid. This guy even gave a piece of information to Ivan. Satisfied with the list of some people.

And this is also the goal of Ivan's next move.

The group moved extremely fast. Except for a simple temporary tent for Lilith, everyone else wore armor and slept on their mounts every night, and they set off early the next day.

Perhaps because of the druid's power in the forest, the team that shuttled through the forest for two days did not encounter any danger.

But everyone knows that this is obviously only temporary security.

Sure enough, at noon on the third day, the woods behind him had just completely disappeared from everyone's sight, and the attack came as planned!

The first wave of attacks was based on the sudden dense "buzzing" sound in front of the seemingly empty road in the space!

"Enemy attack!"

The middle-aged knight Callai, who had raised his vigilance to the highest level in his heart, immediately warned the police the moment the sound sounded. All the cavalry shouted in unison after hearing the order, and suddenly dark blue translucent masks appeared instantly. On these cavalrymen!

The only common secret skill that junior knights can master—Knight's Shield!
The dense arrow shooting caused waves of ripples on the shield, but as the only supernatural ability of the knights in the early stage, the effect of this skill, which is almost all added to the protection of arrows and other damage, is amazing, and it is hard to block This wave of arrow rain!
It was also at this time that he took out his shield and protected himself and Lilith to protect Aiwen, only to be surprised to find that the 25 cavalry in this team were all professionals above the junior knight level!
"This is probably the most essential part of the entire territory's combat power, right?" Ivan thought in his heart.

You know, although this is an extraordinary universe, on this plane alone, 90.00% of the creatures have not broken away from the concept of "mortal things". At most, they have stronger strength and stronger physique. Reaching a transcendent threshold.

And if the scope is reduced to intelligent creatures, the proportion of being able to officially take office and obtain at least one skill power is even lower. They are definitely considered the elite of their race, and they are also the pillars that truly support a race's survival and continuation in the chaotic era. !
"Just to support such a group of people, the lion lords of all ages have to be tired and vomit blood, right?"

While thinking wildly in his heart, Ai Wen pushed aside these Mitsubishi arrows with fine blood grooves.

Still thinking blindly clearly shows that he is unusually calm at the moment.

This is what enhancing strength does.

His powerful physique improvement has made his dynamic vision beyond the ordinary, and his extraordinary martial arts skills have made him calm and unhurried. Judging from the sound, these crossbow arrows should be triggered by some kind of mechanism.

The opponent obviously knew that it was impossible to deal with such a group of people with such a small trick, so after the appetizer was over, accompanied by some low-pitched incantations, eight fiery fireballs went straight to Lilith from both sides!

"At least eight official casters?"

Frowning, his whole body was filled with BUFF in an instant, and after a little pondering, Aiwen suddenly tapped on his forehead.

[Divine Art—Earth Covenant]!
Immediately, with a strong wave of divine power, a huge figure with a height of more than four meters and a "waist circumference" of almost the same four meters, like a wall, blocked him and Lilith directly behind him.

"This, this is... an earth elemental creature?!"

Lilith looked at the "wall" and let out a low cry of surprise.

Huge volume, dark yellow color, a chaotic mass of ever-changing heads and a cylindrical body that goes straight to the ground, combined with huge limbs that constantly change shapes, it really is a real elemental life!

This is the first time he has heard that people other than senior priests of the elements can summon this kind of real elemental creatures, not the pseudo-elemental puppets temporarily composed of energy particles.

But looking at Aiwen, who was protecting him with holy light all over his body, he suddenly felt that there was nothing surprising about it.

People from another world, this seems to explain all the strange things...

Well, she didn't know that Ai Wen often felt that his trick was completely unskillful...

The gods are dead, but the magic is still not delayed?
Sure enough, I can only say that the card pool is 666...

The real elemental creatures are at least equivalent to a high-level professional, and the earth elementals have to directly upgrade to a level in terms of defense.

Therefore, the fireball of a mere elementary spell hit the earth elemental that had brushed an elemental barrier on itself, and it was useless at all, and it played the role of a firework and dissipated reluctantly.

Also shocked were the assailants in the dark.

"Is XX the person in charge of the information! There is a senior priest of the elemental god in the team, and I didn't even find out!"

In such a remote area, a high-level professional can definitely be regarded as a strong person who can frighten one side
No matter how prepared they are, it's impossible for them to be rich enough to easily deal with a high-level professional!
The one who returned his meow was the one who could call a helper!

If it really reaches this level and engages in a woolen conspiracy, it's just a remote baronie on the edge of the kingdom, just push and crush it, okay?

"There is no time to complain, now that we have reached this point, let's attack with all our strength!"

A phantom-like translucent figure suddenly spoke out, suppressing the quarrel among the attackers.

And this person is obviously very prestigious among the attackers, and after hearing the order, all the attackers launched an attack again in an orderly manner.

And the attacking team that was previously covered by some kind of magical power now completely appeared in front of Ai Wen and his party as the concealment magic dispersed.

"More than 20 guys holding crossbows who may be soldiers, and there are eight who may be junior spellcasters and ambushes scattered around, plus a leader?"

Ai Wen made a simple calculation, and there are almost 50 people, this is simply an enemy team!

"Are all the plotters so arrogant now?"

Originally, after watching too many TV series, Ai Wen was a little confused because he habitually thought that there would be only a few people, but he soon breathed a sigh of relief.

Although there are many people, it may look bluffing, but it may not be useful.

This is a world of extraordinary sages. If there are really only one or two people, then at least the attackers should not start with archmages or grand knights?

There are so many people like this, it can only show that they are weak!
