Chapter 210

In the barracks outside Loulan City, Du Wei has taken 28 cadets to set out in full dress. General Longbottom personally led 1000 cavalry to join the northwest "Internship".

Because Dewey's idea is very simple: these magician students will be used as combat talents in the future. He doesn't want his students to be the kind of scholars who will only stay in the magic laboratory. What he needs is to be able to really cooperate with the army and play a real role in the battle. In Dewey's conception, he hopes to find out the most efficient mode of "cooperative combat" between the army and the magician.

After strict physical training, these magic students have very strong bodies. Dewey has equipped them with a set of equipment that has subverted the tradition of magicians

No one is a war horse. Instead of the traditional wizard robe, each of them is equipped with a top-quality half body leather armor, a light sword as a self-defense weapon, and a magic ring. Dewey even paid for it himself to equip each of these students with a magic wand, which is made of walnut wood of good quality, These precious walnut, let Duwei exhausted his last bit of "time elapse spring" reserves.

For these novice magic apprentices, everyone can get a top-grade walnut wand. It's a great surprise! You know, even in the magic guild, those who are qualified to use the walnut wand are at least intermediate level magicians. After they got the wand, they were all very excited. I can't put it down. I even wipe it carefully with my sleeve.

"Listen up, everyone." Dewey turned over and stood on the horse and said in a loud voice, "I will give you the best! The best wand, the best equipment! But whether you can be worthy of these things depends on your efforts! I hope that after the northwest internship, each of you can be worthy of what you have! And I can tell you first. As long as you can make me satisfied with the performance behind... I will give you some extra surprises

Looking at these eager eyes, Dewey then announced a decision, and this decision made everyone confused:

Dewey asked these magic apprentices to try their best to cooperate with the accompanying army in their internships in the coming days!

"All you have to do is try your best to cooperate with them! Cooperate with them and follow the orders of general Longbottom. Try your best to come up with all ways to meet his requirements... Even some unreasonable requirements in your opinion! Do you understand? "

The magician to cooperate with the soldiers?

This order is indeed unexpected.

Because the magic of Roland empire is prosperous, the status of magicians is noble, and the number is rare. In the war of the Empire, although the magician will work for the Empire, how noble is the position of the magician? They're not the kind of people who come and go when they're called! In the battle, the magicians mainly fight by themselves. Although they can also rely on their own strong power to cause huge damage to the enemy, but in Dewey's view, such efficiency is extremely low! These magicians are lack of cooperation. They often fight separately and will not cooperate, which greatly wastes the role of magicians.

Don't expect these magicians to cooperate with the army. Most of them act with their mood. When they are in a good mood, they can help you. I'm in a bad mood, so I have to leave. And the army not only can't get stable and lasting support, but also has to wait on these magicians like the master.

Dewey's idea is to let these magicians change their habits. It is unreasonable for these magicians to blindly cater to the requirements of the army. However, in order to correct the habits of the magicians, such overcorrection is also a very effective means in the short term.

Dewey is ahead of this idea. Even Longbottom is a little bit uncomfortable. Although he was a senior officer of the Empire, commanding thousands of people. But I have never had dozens of magicians to follow the instructions. For a moment, he was a little at a loss. After duvera came over, the general with a bitter smile on his face, coughed hard and said in a loud voice: "good! So from now on, I will not treat you as magicians! In my opinion, you are a soldier under my command! Then you must all obey my orders! I will treat you equally, don't want to get any preferential treatment from me! If anyone disobeys my military order, I will whip you! Do you understand? "

This is a very bold statement. If lombarton dares to say this to other magicians, they will turn around and leave on the spot. If he meets a bad tempered magician, he will have to give the general some hard work.

But fortunately, these rookies have been strictly brainwashed by Dewey, and Dewey has great prestige in their hearts. And before they entered the magic academy, they were all from the army. It was normal for them to obey the military orders. Everyone responded loudly.

"Then, let's go!" Longbottom called out: "basic March line! Magicians, before the last... Dark, we have to get to diniuli town under the kilimarro mountains. We'll get supplies there, and then you don't have time to rest, we'll go into the kilimarro mountains overnight! Guys... Warcraft in the mountains is waiting for us! They'll give their fur, and their core

After going on the road, Longbottom and Dewey walked side by side and complained in a low voice: "boss, you have given me a problem... So many magicians listen to me... I don't know what to do. God, I'm afraid I'm the only general in the Empire who can have so many magicians. "

"You'll get used to it." "It's just the beginning. We still need to explore it slowly," Dewey said with a smile

One day's rapid march, these magician apprentices all insisted on it. After all, they have kept their body training. This performance has surprised general Longbottom. Like most generals in the Empire, he hated and loved the magicians. Love is the powerful power of magicians, but hate. It's because these forces can't be easily mastered. Looking at these obedient magicians, but also gritting their teeth to endure hardships and persevere, for their own military orders are also meticulously implemented, such subordinates, what can be demanding?

Duwei looked at the young master of Liszt family. Muse was tired, but when Duwei's eyes floated towards him, he still tried to stand up and refused to show weakness.

Hum. What a proud boy. Dewey laughed to himself.

Niuli town is a town in the south of kilimaro mountain. There is a unique terrain in the south of the mountain. The hillside is not steep and relatively gentle. It is the best place to enter the mountain. The population of the town is less than 1000 people, and Longbottom has brought people here before. He is familiar with the terrain and environment, so he added some fodder here. I'm ready to enter the mountain.

"According to our information, there may be Warcraft in about a hundred miles around here." "The last time we came here, we heard from the local people that every spring there was something called a monster that came to the town to harass the local people," Longbottom said. According to their description, this kind of monster is small in size and quick in movement. It comes here every spring. He hurt the livestock in the town. Several hunters in the town tried to kill it, but they failed... The guy is said to spit fire and can get into the ground when he runs away. "

"Sir, we need more information to determine what Warcraft it is." A magic apprentice boldly said: "obviously, this is a fire Warcraft, but. Small body, quick action, can spit fire, can also drill underground... These characteristics are too vague. According to these characteristics, I can come up with at least seven kinds of Warcraft that meet these conditions, including fire dragon and tutur rat. There are pointed toothed beavers... These things. Each Warcraft has a different way of dealing with it. We need more information to make the best plan for dealing with this thing. "

The other students nodded. Others even made a clear list of suspects. Du Wei is very satisfied with the reaction of these students. These guys have learned the most important thing under their own influence: efficiency!

At this time, a sharp voice suddenly said: "you so many magicians, are you still worried about a small Warcraft? We have thousands of cavalry, so many magicians... Hum, and the Duke is such a famous powerful magician in the mainland. Are you afraid of such a small Warcraft... Are you too careful... "

This tone with obvious disdain and ridicule, is to blame Du Wei and others for lack of courage.

The boy Muse couldn't help saying these words, and immediately he secretly regretted it. But he didn't know why. When he saw Dewey, he couldn't help feeling unhappy. He always looked at this guy and wanted to stab him.

These words came out, and Dewey didn't say anything. The magic students immediately glared at the boy one by one. More people can't help but shout: "what are you, dare to blame the president!"

The Muse just blurted out a few words and regretted it. However, he heard someone ask himself that he was the proud son of the Liszt family. How could he see others from being careful and arrogant? He couldn't help but said: "hum, a famous great magician is afraid of a small Warcraft. Let's talk about it... Hehe, it's not who I slander, it's just that I'm afraid I'll be ridiculed. In this way... Hum, it's really someone who teaches his subordinates... They are generally cautious, like walking on thin ice. "

Others were immediately angry at the boy who didn't know the greatness of heaven and earth. Duvet coughed softly, and immediately everyone was silent, but his eyes were staring at the boy.

"Mr. muse." Du Wei pondered for a while, his face seems to see no anger, light way: "courage or cowardice, nothing but other people's evaluation. It's good to be a man with a clear conscience. Why care about the gossip? Since you are so brave, then I can't suppress your virtue... Well. When we enter the mountain later, we just need some outposts in front of us. Since you are willing to show your bravery, you will not miss such an opportunity. "

Now it's getting dark. In niuli Town, you can see Mount kilimaro in the distance. The top of Mount kilimaro is covered with white snow, and the continuous peaks rise into the sky. It's green only under the mountainside. But it is a forest, endless... Just this green in the night, but exudes a bit of secluded darkness.

The Muse could not help but feel a little flustered, but he insisted: "the outpost is the outpost. What am I afraid of?"

With that, he pulled the reins and went on. Dewey held on, and the Muse said angrily, "do you have anything else to say, Duchess?"

"Mr. muse. The mountain road is difficult. Are you going to ride up the mountain like this? " Dewey smiles.

"Hum!" The Muse blushed, but under the cover of the night, the blush just flashed by, and then said stubbornly: "who said I would ride up the mountain. I'm just walking forward. "

Dewey doesn't want to embarrass the Liszt boy too much. After all, he has a good relationship with the Liszt family. It's really not worth it to turn over his face for this kind of talk. Then he ordered several of his men. Go to help the boy lead the horse to rest.

Those magic students have been lazy to pay attention to this boy for a long time. After more than 20 people dismounted, they scattered around the town according to what they had learned in the school of magic, looking for traces left by Warcraft. There were also careful people who went to the local residents to ask for information. After all, the news that general lombarton got was from the soldiers. The soldiers don't understand many details, so they have to ask for them by themselves.

Some people even proposed to look at the carcasses of the animals that were killed by Warcraft.

Fortunately, it's cold here in Northwest China, and many carcasses of animals that are about to die haven't rotted yet. Looking at these noble magicians, they don't shy away from being dirty. They personally check the carcasses of those bloody animals. No one will frown because they dislike them. Everyone checks them professionally. Some even took out knives to cut them by hand. Don't avoid blood.

The soldiers nearby looked strange. In their impression, the magicians were noble people. It's bigger than those noble lords. Where can you do such dirty work? Even Dewey is very satisfied with the performance of these students.

Pragmatic and humble, this is very important!

Soon, the students made a rough estimate.

"Your honor." A leader of the student came to report: "we found a clue that all the livestock bodies that were bitten to death had the same characteristics... A lot of blood loss. The Warcraft obviously sucked the blood of the livestock, and the important thing is that each of these corpses was not sucked dry. Obviously, the Warcraft has a very different habit: it probably only likes to eat the blood of living animals. When the livestock bitten by it loses blood to a certain extent and dies naturally, it will not continue to suck blood, and then run to find the next prey. Therefore, it seems that every autopsy is a lot of blood loss, but the blood has not been completely drained. After the body is stiff, there are still a lot of coagulated blood clots in the body. We cut several bodies, cut open the blood vessels, and come to this conclusion. "

Dewey was satisfied: "what else?"

"And..." the student thought, "we have a difference. Well, the brothers put forward a point, but I don't think it's possible."

"Oh?"

Dewey remembers that of the 32 students at Hogwarts, 30 were from the military, with only two exceptions. This is a pair of brothers born into a declining aristocratic family, but because they are illegitimate children (mentioned above).

The brothers are the youngest of the students in Hogwarts, because the other students are all selected by the army, most of them are 18 years old. And these two guys are about the same age as Dewey. However, after several months of observation by Du Wei, these two people are the most talented of the group.

"Yes, they made a point, but we doubt it. But we can't come to any conclusion, so we think it's better for you to ask them in person. " The team leader of the student spoke very objectively.

This is what Dewey is very satisfied with. He treats every question rationally, does not arbitrarily, does not rudely veto... Fair and objective. This is also a very important quality that Dewey instilled in these students. He doesn't want his people to become arrogant like the traditional magicians.

"All right. Let the two of them come and I'll ask Dewey orders. Just as the captain was about to leave, Dewey suddenly remembered something and stopped him: "wait a minute, Zig."

Zig is the name of the captain. He is the leader of the cadets from the army. A rigorous and impartial person, although his talent is not the best, but in terms of organizational ability and prestige, he convinces other students.

"Your honor. What else

"Zig." Dewey pondered for a moment and said slowly, "I noticed that in your words just now, the word is' the brothers', right?"

"... yes." Zig seemed to understand Dewey.

Dewey looked him in the eye and said, "I think, on weekdays, you guys talk about the two of them. That's what they all said... The brothers... Well. I know that all 30 of you are from the army, and the two of them are not. There is a lot of unity among you 30 people, but such unity makes it difficult for outsiders to get in. I don't want to criticize you. I just want to tell you that such unity is good, but it is also bad. What I want to say to you is: maybe in the future, you people will go your own way. Or will go to various places to do different things, will not be like now so gathered together, will not like now is still a group... But now! Now? You are all from our college! When outsiders talk about you, they will regard you students in Hogwarts as a whole. Do you understand what I said? Unity is good, but exclusion is bad. I hope you will think it over. "

Ziger immediately said solemnly: "Dean, I understand! I didn't do my duty! I'll do my best! "

"Good. In the future, I don't want to hear "the brothers" as a foreign name. In my opinion, you people are all the same. You are all your own people. You are all a group. "

"Yes, Dean!" Zig could not help but stand up straight. He was about to leave when he said something again.

"Mr. President..." ziger's voice was not loud. But he was adamant: "I don't think... We want to go our separate ways in the future. Everyone's wish is to be with you. It's not my idea. "

Zig turned and left. Dewey sighed softly.

He believed that this steady young man would understand what he meant.

Soon, the brothers were called in front of Dewey. Dewey looked at the two nervous guys and said with a smile, "OK, can I eat people? When I was drinking the night before yesterday, you didn't give me too much

They immediately laughed.

"I remember you were my brother, right?" Dewey looks at one of the slightly fatter ones.

"Yes, Dean. My name is Beibei, and this is my brother Thor."

"Well, don't introduce yourself. Do you think I can't remember my students' names? Now, tell me the result of your discussion. I heard that you put forward some analysis, right? "

"Yes, Dean." Beibei said: "we think that the Warcraft that haunts here may not be one, but two... Two Warcraft that act together. However, most of our students do not agree with our point of view. "

Dewey nodded. He can imagine why.

Because most Warcraft are solitary things, only a few Warcraft have social habits. Like the Griffins in the south. But most of Warcraft live alone.

"What's more, the two of us even suspected that it might be two different series of Warcraft, one fire series and one ice series."

"Oh?"

Dewey is interested.

Social life is very rare in Warcraft. And different social groups are even rarer. Don't mention Warcraft, even those gregarious animals in ordinary animals will only gregarious with their own kind.

What's more, a fire Warcraft and an ice Warcraft? Fire system and ice system are almost natural enemies! It's like cats and mice.

Have you ever seen a cat and a mouse live together?

"Give me your reasons." Dewey pondered for a moment.

"Dean, this idea was put forward by my brother. Let him talk about it." Beibei put the blame on his brother.

At first sight, Thor was a shy boy. He was thin, tall, clean, and had a good temperament. It's quite similar to Du Wei, but he doesn't look so shy. He is very calm: "Dean, it's really my idea... I dissected several corpses, especially the blood of these livestock was sucked, which made me confused. Because according to what we have learned, fire Warcraft rarely sucks blood. of course. Not without it. However, most of the blood sucking fire Warcraft are very small. But I saw the wounds on several corpses. Judging from the traces of teeth, it should be a big guy, at least as big as the ice snow devil wolf. This is not consistent with the information that the residents here said that Warcraft is very small. and. Judging from the number of dead livestock... I'm afraid this blood sucking Warcraft eats a lot! If it's a small thing, it can't suck so much blood, so I think it should be a big one. And... I extracted a clot of blood that had been coagulated. After careful examination, I found that these clots were not naturally coagulated after the death of animals. It's... It's frozen. So I think the villagers said that the Warcraft they saw was a small thing, but my inspection concluded that there was a big one... Well. There should be two! There is also a division of labor between these two things. The small thing is responsible for spitting fire and killing livestock, while the big one sucks blood. "

"Cooperation?" Asked Dewey.

"I don't feel like cooperation... But like, um... Slavery." Thor said cautiously: "I suspect that the ice Warcraft is a high-level guy. It captured a fire Warcraft as its subordinate, and then it was driven to catch prey for it." Thor said that. With a bitter smile, he said, "but I don't think it's possible. Because all those who can enslave other Warcraft are high-level things. Although there are Warcraft in kilimaro mountain, it is not the place where Warcraft is frequently touched. There should not be high-level Warcraft here. "

"Nothing in the world is impossible." Dewey curled his mouth.

Even the old guy in Aragorn, who has been dead for a thousand years, can leave a message in Chinese to himself after a thousand years... What else is impossible?

Thor's conjecture is really incredible.

Advanced Warcraft does have the ability to summon and enslave other Warcraft. For example, the snow devil wolf. After evolution, the highest level can become the snow wolf king. The howl of the wolf king. You can summon all the Warcraft below your level in the covered area for your own drive.

However, Du Wei first ruled out the possibility of ice and snow wolf king, because although wolf king is powerful, he has no habit of absorbing blood. Moreover, if the wolf king howls, he will not only summon one Warcraft as his subordinate.

Just... If it's really a guy who can only summon and drive other Warcraft, it must be a high-level Warcraft! It's a high-level Warcraft, which can't be dealt with by the small vegetable birds. They may be able to deal with ordinary Warcraft, but if they meet an advanced one, they have to run away.

Even Dewey himself, now with his real strength, if he meets an advanced Warcraft, the best choice is to retreat.

"Cancel the original order. We'll stay in town for one night without going into the mountains Dewey gave the order immediately.

When Longbottom heard Dewey's order, he ran to ask. Dewey explained the guess of his magic apprentice. However, the general obviously underestimated the power of Warcraft. Maybe... After all, he is not a magician. Only a magician can understand the power of a real advanced Warcraft.

"We have thousands of cavalry and so many magicians. Can't we clean up one or two Warcraft?"

Dewey was very serious. He lowered his voice: "general, I have to tell you that these magic students are not real magicians. They haven't graduated yet. What's more, they are all my precious wealth... I won't let them lose here in vain. Even if they lose one, I can't afford it! Do you understand? Second, I'm afraid you don't know the power of advanced Warcraft. I can tell you that advanced Warcraft itself may not have much powerful magic power, but most advanced Warcraft have Summoning Skills. If conditions permit, it can summon a Warcraft army for it to drive... Moreover, the most difficult part of advanced Warcraft is that it has completed the evolution. Have some wisdom! It's no longer an unconscious beast! We are here for practice, not for war. I will not be cowardly, but unnecessary sacrifice is stupid in my opinion

However, Dewey added in his heart: most of the advanced Warcraft don't have too strong magic in themselves... The exception is Medusa!

Longbottom obeyed Dewey's orders. Then Dewey ordered the removal of the mountain outpost. This order once again gave the Muse a chance to play, he was not polite to use sharp words to ridicule Dewey's action.

"Then, please, warrior, watch for us tonight." Du Wei light way. I sent this annoying boy away. Dewey had to order the other night watchmen to watch the guy carefully.

"Just let him suffer a little, but don't let him really get hurt."

That night, Du Wei also ordered 28 students to be divided into four groups. After daybreak, four groups of people with 200 soldiers in each group went into the mountain to search in four ways, and kept the distance between each group not too far, once they found something. Don't act without authorization. Try to inform your partner first.

But don't move until daybreak! Otherwise, going into the mountain at night to deal with a high-level Warcraft in the ice system would be an act of seeking death.

This may be a bit of a fuss. But Dewey thinks it's necessary to be careful when facing a guy who may be a high-level Warcraft.

The students are very excited because they have never really seen advanced Warcraft! For these guys, advanced Warcraft exists only in legends, or in lectures.

Before dawn. Duwei had already got up. He was about to go out when the guard outside, elder smoke knight, knocked at the door and came in. Lao Yan's expression was serious: "your honor, the Duke's mansion has sent someone to report to you face to face when something urgent happened at home."

"Oh?" Dewey was stunned for a moment... Is there something wrong with Marquis Liszt?

It's no one else. It's little sandy.

Mad is a very smart housekeeper. He smelled something unusual from Hussein's forbidding people to go to the temple to treat his injuries. The messenger did not dare to let the ordinary servants go, but let little sandy, a loyal subordinate of duvidi, come. Poor little sandy, in the past half a year or so, he has done a good job in equestrian training, but it took a lot of time to catch up with the well-trained cavalry. He came here at dawn.

Sandy brought a message. There's also something coming.

The message was relayed by Hussein. And that thing, Dewey just looked at it. Immediately his face changed greatly!

"The big reptiles from the north of the frozen forest have come to take revenge. Come back quickly!" That's what Hussein said.

And bring something, is a golden scale!

This is obviously a piece of broken scale, but although it is broken, it can be so broken that it is as big as the mouth of the bowl! Take it in your hand, it's heavy, and there's blood on it!

Dewey immediately recognized it... It's dragon scale!

And this scale was pulled from the wound behind Hussein!

Dewey's face has changed!

That old dragon, did you take revenge on yourself? Does it disregard its vows?

He got up abruptly, and was about to go back to the city at once when lombarton suddenly came in through the door in a hurry.

"Boss, it's not good... The boy you brought, when he was on the vigil last night, quietly ran up the mountain by himself..." before long Barton finished, Dewey burst into a rage: "shit!!"
