Full Time Mage Lord

The news that the Qiyao family was joining forces to launch an attack on the southern part of the continent spread like wildfire. The Xinghui Empire, from its ministers to its citizens, fell into an extremely pessimistic tone.

Xiuyin's Longhui Territory was also in mourning, and even the people in the border villages began to move toward the interior of the empire in panic.

As soon as they saw the lord return to the territory, the officials poured into Xiuyin's mansion. This time, the crowding in Xiuyin's mansion was even worse than when he announced the establishment of Longhui.

Officials and generals of all sizes were crowded in the meeting hall of the lord's mansion. They were looking forward to Lord Xiuyin, who always showed off all kinds of strange tricks, to once again lead them to stand on the clouds of glory.

Xiu Yin returned to the collar and his butt was still hot. Foreign Minister Milner and Charlotte, who was in charge of intelligence, immediately presented Xiu Yin with a new trouble.

What Milner showed was a letter from the Kingdom of Loland. Queen Abigina said that she would soon be unable to withstand the pressure from the Qiyao family. If Xiuyin did not send new reinforcements, there would be almost no fighting power in the Kingdom of Loland. , can only choose to surrender to Qiyao...

The news in Milner's newspaper did give Xiu Yin a headache for a while. Originally, Xiu Yin asked Lietli to garrison in the northern part of the Kingdom of Loland. The maritime power of the Qiyao family has been almost consumed by the Hexin family, and the only remaining one has The Namikaze Empire of Battleship is also in the process of being torn apart, so as long as the land leading to Loland is defended, Nanayao family cannot invade the southeastern part of the mainland from the sea.

But what Xiu Yin never expected was that Lietli was defeated and died.

On the other hand is Charlotte's intelligence report, which contains records of the battle of Lietli.

At that time, Leitli led 5,000 warriors of the Chapter and 10,000 Loran warriors to set up defenses at the mouth of the valley in the northern valley of the Loran Kingdom - the Canyon of the Dead.

The Canyon of the Dead is a valley formed in the lower reaches of the Tianshui River, mainly in the northeast of Navaran and the northern part of the Loland Kingdom.

Thousands of years of surface changes on the mainland have caused the course of the Tianshui River to change several times. Therefore, in the Canyon of the Dead, that is, in this valley area, except for the main channel of the Tianshui River, there are no rivers flowing through it in many places. Over the years, a dry valley formed.

The name of a valley in the north of Loland is called the Dark Forest by the locals.

There is a large area of ​​dense forest at the mouth of the valley, lined with green trees. The forest is so dense that people cannot see the sun when they look up in the forest, so it is called the dark forest.

The terrain here has been recorded by Xiu Yin through the silver pupil. After analysis, Xiu Yin ordered Lietli to guard outside the valley entrance. In this way, even if the Qiyao family dispatched a hundred thousand troops, it would be difficult to rush out of the Canyon of the Dead in large numbers, and in addition, The Longhui leader's crossbow formation was enough to stifle the Qiyao family's attempt to occupy the coastal areas of Luoran.

But it backfired.

Lietli didn't listen to Xiu Yin's order at all, and actually let the team enter the dark forest to block the Qiyao family's army outside the forest and in the canyon.

Leading the Qiyao family's army was General Miguelqi, a paladin from the Anxi Empire, who led a vanguard force of 5,000 troops to advance towards Loland.

Paladin Miguelchi is one of the Seven Swordsmen of the Anxi Empire.

The Anxi Empire is rich in swordsmen. From ancient times to the present, there have been countless mainland sword masters in this land. Even the army of the Anxi Empire uses long swords the most.

One-handed swords, two-handed swords, long swords, short swords, in short, more than 4,000 of these 5,000 people in combat strength use swords.

Miguelchi is one of the Seven Swords. The age of forty is the peak period of glory and career in life.

Since he had been growing up in the north of the mainland, he had only seen the situation in the south from information. Before leaving, he even boasted to the emperor that he would use these five thousand elites to occupy the entire Luolan.

But when Miguelci stood on the north bank of the Canyon of the Dead, he regretted it.

The canyon was slender and long. Although he had expected that, so he did not lead many troops, but when he actually came to provide disaster relief, he found that this long and slender canyon could only carry about twenty people abreast, and large magic weapons could not pass at all. Transported through this rugged valley.

Miguelqi gritted his teeth and advanced towards the canyon area, abandoning large magic weapons on the way, and was always worried that the enemy would ambush above the valley.

Crossing the Tianshui River from a ford with trepidation, I saw a truly dark forest.

Miguelci was completely desperate. He wanted to retreat, but the scouts in front of him came with news that made him extremely excited.

The enemy is stationed in the dense forest.

If it were an ambush or a surprise attack in the dense forest, Miguelqi's troops would definitely suffer disaster, but now they found that the enemy had actually arranged a formation and built a stronghold in the forest...

"What an idiot!"

Miguelqi was not in a hurry. Large magic weapons could not be transported, but small magic ballistae were pushed up.

At night, when the fire illuminated the entire dark forest, Lietli was still observing the map in his camp. He thought about destroying the invading Nanyao army, or perhaps crossing the Canyon of the Dead to capture the original Namikaze Empire in the north. As for the land, we will also be in a favorable position for future trade negotiations with Emperor Namikaze...

But Lietli's imagination didn't last long when he heard the screams of the soldiers.

The magic ballista relies on soul crystals as its source of power to fire large crossbow bolts. With just one shot, the hastily built earthen stronghold here collapsed in an instant.

Miguelqi's body erupted with the aura of a paladin, and more than a hundred elites broke into the defensive formation arranged by Lietli.

No longer able to organize an effective formation, their combat strength was only second or third level soul power, and there were even more ordinary warriors without soul power among them.

Facing the powerful Paladin Miguelchi, Lietli's defensive formation was completely defeated by less than a hundred enemies who rushed in in less than ten minutes.

Thousands of people were retreating and crowded in the dark forest. Even if a bird in the forest screamed, these remnant soldiers would scream and want to run faster.

I'm afraid they will never forget in their lives when the dazzling soul energy shone on the Paladin's body. He just raised his hand gently and waved, and the sword light flashed. The survivors found that there were already ten people on their left and right. The remaining bodies...

Adjutant Chris was also among them. After retreating from the Dark Forest, he immediately organized more than a hundred people to set up a crossbow formation in an attempt to intercept the enemy.

Chris was once the guard captain of the Rhine City, and was appointed by Xiu Yin as Leitli's adjutant to be responsible for blocking the enemy in the Canyon of the Dead.

The corpses everywhere made Chris begin to believe that what the defeated soldiers said was true. Lietli, their commander had died in the rebellion...
