The Invincible Overlord of Heroes

Your Excellency Xu Lai, you are going out at this time. Do you really want to evade the war mobilization order?

Elena was surprised when she heard that Xu Lai was going out.

Xu Lai smiled slightly and said: So, Priest Elena, what do you think I should do?

Elena blushed, stood up and said hesitantly: Actually, whether it is emotionally or logically, it is right for you to choose to escape at this time.

I, I just don’t believe you would do this.

Xu Lai rolled his eyes and said, Don't kidnap me morally. If you really think that I should not participate in this war, why would you use the word escape?

Elena's face was red with embarrassment, and she looked around anxiously, looking guilty as if she had been told.

Xu Lai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This little girl was too immature, but he didn't take it to heart. He had already decided to join the war, so why not use this free favorability.

Don't worry, I'm not trying to escape, I'm just preparing for this war.

Elena quickly wanted to make amends: Then how can I help?

Xu Lai shook his head and said: No need, Miss Priest, just tell me, what is the deadline for this war mobilization order?

After being hinted by Xu Lai, Elena felt very guilty. Out of this guilt and her own sense of morality, she instinctively wanted to provide more help to Xu Lai.

The war mobilization order depends on the area to be mobilized. If it is the entire human empire, the period will be at least one month or more.

This time only the grassland areas have been mobilized, so the deadline is only more than a week. Counting from today, it should be less than a week, and there are still 6 days left.

Six days, that should be enough.

Xu Lai's plan was simple. He had to meet the deadline of the mobilization order and strengthen himself and his troops as much as possible.

Just as it happened, Jian Yuan brought him the most detailed road map. Counting those guarding the buildings, there were nearly 40 monster spots and nearly 5,000 wild monsters of all levels.

Moreover, in order to achieve a quick victory this time, he only brought fast troops, that is, cavalry and flying troops.

Even the flying soldier Xu Lai only brought level 3 gargoyles. Although the level 2 gargoyles were faster than the flower demons, they still couldn't keep up with the movement speed of the cavalry.

Jian Yuan was on the road while conducting reconnaissance, and it only took four days to get back and forth. Xu Lai led a group of cavalry to travel day and night. Even if there was a battle, he should be able to get back in about five days.

In this attack, Su Ya, Giselle, and Yu Lan were not brought with them. Although Giselle was fast, her endurance could not keep up with the horses. Su Ya needed to help him guard Qingfeng Town. Not to mention Yu Lan, she was completely unavailable. Can ride a horse.

However, Xu Lai's decision was jointly opposed by Su Ya and others. Yu Lan even said that she could transform into a giant eagle, and her speed was only faster than Xu Lai and others.

Considering that Yu Lan is only at the fifth level now, and after being promoted to captain, promotion will be more difficult, so it is necessary to participate in more battles.

In fact, according to past experience, with Yu Lan's level and having experienced so many battles with Xu Lai, he should have advanced a long time ago. Unfortunately, after being promoted to captain, the experience requirements have increased a lot.

Now that Yu Lan has been brought with him, Tahan and Yan Fengxulai originally planned to bring only one of them, but now they simply bring them all.

Then there are the two personal bodyguards and level 5 knight retinues.

Without these two people on guard, Xu Lai placed the newly recruited sword master in his own courtyard. With the two heavy infantrymen guarding the gate, it was impossible for anyone else to enter except Su Ya and others.

Bring all 8 Rangers. This time you go out, the main thing is to upgrade them.

Naturally, he brought all 15 mercenaries with him, plus 2 rangers and 8 gargoyles. Counting Xu Lai, there were 39 people in total.

The mercenaries only had one quiver, so Xu Lai had to take away two supply trucks. One contained a marching tent, various food and drinking water, leaving about 2,500 units of space.

The other one carried more than 60 quivers seized from thieves and more than 4,900 remaining arrows.

The marching tents can be used to rest during the march, and each one can provide a recovery effect to 6 units. Xu Lai left two for Su Ya for temporary use, and took away the remaining eight.

He and Yu Lan live in one, Tahan and Yan Feng live in another, and the remaining 6 can provide 48 rest places.

And when they rest, they will definitely have to arrange a night watch, so even if Xu visits a certain unit when he returns to the city, the position will be enough.

Because of the gargoyles, as long as their lives are not damaged, there is actually no need to live in a tent.

39 people, all of them are high-speed moving units. If Xu Lai's knights and the like were real people, Xu Lai could even run infinitely with two horses and three horses.

Before leaving, Elena ran over to see him off. Not only did she see him off, she also strongly asked Xu Lai to wait a moment.

This wait took less than half an hour, but in terms of the results, the wait was worth it.

She teamed up with the two priests and released a blessing spell for Xu Lai and the others.

When it comes to healing and blessing, really no one can beat this group of pastors.

[Glory of the God of War]: Every time you kill a target, you will get a certain proportion of the corresponding recovery effect based on the target's health, stamina, and mana, which lasts for 48 hours.

This is a special blessing, and it can be regarded as one of Elena's unique skills. However, with her own power, even if there are only 39 targets, it cannot last too long.

Joining two other priests to cast a spell, although it greatly lengthens the casting time, also greatly increases the duration.

48 hours is two days and two nights, enough for Xu Lai and them to do many things.

Xu Lai's first target, just over ten kilometers away, was their old rival, a large group of harpies.

After being upgraded to a small town, with its own affiliated village, and two more recruiting buildings than an ordinary small town, Qingfeng Town's sphere of influence has been greatly expanded.

During these ten kilometers, Xu Lai and the others all enjoyed the agility effect of the God of War's feet, although only the eight gargoyles gained speed.

The speed force plus logistics, as well as the grassland war horses ridden by at least level 4 rangers, had not let go of the horse speed to start the charge, and it only took twenty minutes to encounter this group of harpies.

The number of this group of harpies is extremely exaggerated, with more than 500 harpies, and nearly half of them are third-level harpy witches, and there are also some harpy queens among them.

Yu Lan, who transformed into a giant eagle, led the gargoyles and took the initiative to seduce most of them away.

The remaining knights were automatically divided into two. Yan Feng led the other two rangers and a total of 15 mercenaries and 8 rangers, while running and shooting at high-level targets such as the Harpy Queen and the Harpy Witch.

The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, lured away almost most of the enemies. Only four knights, including Xu Lai, were left behind.

They marched in three teams, and the harpies were automatically divided into three waves based on the degree of threat.

Yu Lan and the others took the initiative to enter the warning circle, so they attracted the most. Yan Feng also attracted nearly 200 because of their long range and large number.

In the end, there were only about 50 harpies left, and they rushed towards Xu Lai and the others.

Xu Lai was too lazy to draw his bow. He was eager to show off the level 4 pole weapon he had upgraded to in the training ground.

rush!

Under the command to charge, Tahan protected Xu Lai's side. The horses of the other two knights' retinue were not as good as theirs, and they could only be half a body behind.

What was left behind were all slow harpies with no long-range attack capabilities, allowing Xu Lai and the others to rush into the group of harpies without receiving any attacks.

The heavy lance, with the terrifying bonus of charge, easily tore the harpy's body into pieces. A warm current flowed back to Xu Lai along the lance, accelerating the recovery of his physical strength.

The momentum of the charge does not diminish. The level 5 riding skill that Xu Lai has trained the most allows him to unlock the charge maintenance skill that is similar to that of the mercenary and ranger. After charging to the target, the charge effect can still be maintained.

Moreover, the charge retention is stronger than that of the mercenary, and the effect is similar to that of the ranger, with a probability of up to 50%.

After killing two harpies, Xu Lai also went deep into the group of harpies. For such a flying creature, the attack direction can be from the sky to the ground, so Xu Lai was almost immediately submerged. Got in.

However, with the blessing of the God of War's glory, Xu Lai, who had changed into a long sword of hundreds of battles, was not afraid, and he slashed left and right against the scratches of more than a dozen harpies.

The lethality of the fifth-level steel sword is extremely terrifying. Although it cannot kill the opponent instantly like a charge, with the blessing of intermediate offensive skills, it is basically two swords. You can immediately get physical strength and health supplement from the harpy.

After Tahan and the others joined the battle group, Xu Lai no longer felt threatened. The harpy's ability to break defenses was extremely weak, and Xu Lai also had intermediate defense skills and 18 points of physical fitness.

This was a high-level massacre against low-level ones. Nearly 60 harpies were dead. Xu Lai and the others' health points were full, and their physical strength was almost full.

Although the God of War's Glory can't restore much at once, it's better because there are too many monsters.

After the high-level harpy witch and harpy queen were killed, Yan Feng also led a team into the monster group and cooperated with Xu Lai to fight in close quarters, greatly reducing the time required to end the battle.

Xu Lai already looked down on the Harpy's trophies, and casually cleaned the battlefield, focusing on the place where the Queen and the witches died.

An hour after the battle started, Xu Lai took the silver treasure chest guarded by the harpies and galloped towards the next target.

On the way, Xu Lai used two strategies to heal his wounds, restoring the lives of Yu Lan and the gargoyles.

After all, their armor was too weak. Even if they were only fighting on the edge and had the effect of the God of War's Glory, many of them were still injured.

Fortunately, Yu Lan did not take the initiative to participate in the battle and could constantly adjust the position of the gargoyles from behind, otherwise there would be attrition.

But because of this, fully half of this wave of fighting gargoyles were promoted and became level 4 Black Shine gargoyles.

The dark skin makes these gargoyles harder, their defense is greatly improved, and their health points are increased by a full 25 points. Obviously, their physique is increased by at least 5 points, but their attack and speed are only slightly increased.
