Chapter 23 The Prologue of the World's First Guild(2/2)
The other party's face obviously changed: "It turned out to be a two-soul cultivator."
"What's wrong with so many of you stopping us?"
"Oh, that's it." said the big elf: "Our country has encountered some trouble. Our land queen has heard that foreign tree whisperers have appeared. I hope to solve those problems with your power."
"It's no problem to help, but we still have our own business. If we help you, we will lose a lot." It's not possible for us to do so.
The other party pondered for a moment and continued, "There is no problem. We can compensate you for your losses. Please meet with our Queen and then discuss the solution in detail."
Before I could answer, I heard the system awareness: "The task branch appears. Please choose to agree to cooperation or refuse. This will affect the subsequent task progress. Please choose at your discretion."
Branch tasks are generally better than not, so of course I chose to agree. Moreover, after agreeing, I can also negotiate to adjust the content of our task specifically, at least I can get more benefits, right?
After I agreed to the request, I was quickly taken to the residence of the elves, and the elves were already waiting for us. In order to show my welcome to us, the elves first invited us to a cup of the Source of Life. Don't think that the elves are very stingy. I only invite us to have a drink, because this thing is too precious. The elves is a green liquid that can allow us to double the recovery speed of life within a certain period of time, and can permanently increase the upper limit of life by 5%. This thing may not be of much use to others, and it is simply the best to me. I have a lot of health value. Drinking a cup of this thing can add half of the health value of an ordinary player.
After the sincere expression is completed, it is time to discuss the serious business. I have to say that the Elf Queen is good at doing business. She first invites us to drink such expensive things, and then negotiates, I feel embarrassed to ask others for the price too much.
In fact, the matter of this elves is not too troublesome. It is just to kill the forward fortress of an orc country. In a little troublesome, the forward fortress has a little more troops, and the elves are not very good at siege warfare. Although their long-range suppression methods are excellent, they do not have enough melee troops for charge. No matter how powerful the archers are, they cannot rely on archers to attack the city! That is why today's negotiations are here.
After listening to the introduction of the Elf Queen, I said, "We are very good at siege. At least we can put down the city walls, and we have many melee troops. But we have to go to war later. If we lose too many people here, things will probably be difficult to deal with. Therefore, we hope...!"
Before I could finish my words, the Elf Queen said directly: "Actually, I understand your difficulties, so I specially prepared some thin gifts." The Queen slapped twice, and the people outside immediately sent a tray in. To be honest, the Elf Queen's gift was really thin enough. The thing was placed on the tray, with a leaf covered on it, but the leaves seemed to be placed directly on the tray, and there was no feeling of being supported at all. You can imagine how thin the thing below should be. After the Queen waited for the person to approach, she turned around and picked up the leaves. I stared at the tray. After the leaves were taken away, there was nothing underneath.
"What do you mean?" I looked at the queen in surprise.
The queen was also stunned by me, but after paying attention to my gaze, she immediately understood. "Hahahaha... you misunderstood! The gift I mentioned was in my hands."
“Where?”
"It's this." The queen shook the leaves in her hand.
"This is……?"
"Seedlings of ancient trees in war."
"Hey... I said Her Majesty the Queen. The ancient tree of war is very powerful and very expensive, but I really can't bear this thing growing for thousands of years at any time! Even if I plant it now, I don't know how many generations of grandchildren will be able to use it in the future!"
"Haha, of course I won't give that kind of thing." The queen smiled and handed over another crystal bottle. "It's the essence of the forest. No matter what kind of plants, as long as you touch a little, it will quickly grow into towering trees. The ancient tree of war costs a little, but this bottle should be enough."
"Ah, that's good." I quickly put away both things.
The queen once again reminded: "You must pay attention. Be careful not to let liquid touch any plant. Even if it touches wood furniture, it will quickly grow into a big tree."
"So awesome?"
"Of course, otherwise our elves wouldn't have only this bottle."
"So it's so precious?"
"Of course, but as long as you can do your best to help us, our bottle will not be given in vain."
"We will definitely do our best."
Actually, I think this bottle is more precious than the seedlings of the ancient war tree, and I didn't plan to use this thing to breed the ancient war tree, but planned to take it back for testing. Maybe it could be copied.
Since we agreed to others, we must do the job well. We continued to discuss with the Elf Queen, and after getting some useful materials from her, I officially agreed to help them fight. Before the battle, I sent my own army of ghost insects to reconnaissance the enemy situation, but unexpectedly I got some interesting information.
"What? Our warship fell into the lake behind them?" The screams of the King of Chuang could almost knock people out.
"What are you doing so loudly? I'm not deaf!"
In fact, I was also very surprised when I was reconnaissing this situation. There was a not too big lake behind the Orc Castle. It was nothing. The problem was that my ghost beetle actually saw a ship parked in the lake. The ground sign on it was clearly the new Biling super battleship we rebuilt. According to my observation, the battleship was actually in a semi-stracked state, and the diameter of the lake was only a little larger than the length of the ship. Not to mention turning around, I couldn't even move. This damn
The system can really do it, and it actually threw our warships into this ghost place. But I guess this is also a reward, and it is a reward for branch missions. If I don’t do this mission, I wouldn’t know that our warships are here. In the end, if there is a naval battle, we may have no ships or missing this one. Although stranding in the Neihu is a troublesome thing, as long as we can get rid of the orc castle. With the help of the plant-based magic of the elves, we can actually move it out.
"Based on the existing information, I decided to send some personnel around the castle to board our warship. That is our earth ship itself, and it is no problem to operate. At such a close distance, as long as the Biling can participate in the war, even if it is a fixed turret, it can bombard the orc castle into scorched earth." I introduced to the Elf Queen.
"Your ship is so powerful?"
"Absolutely." I nodded and said, "The five main turrets on the ship are equivalent to five ancient war trees. There is no problem in destroying a city."
"Then I will follow your arrangements." In fact, the Elf Queen will not fight at all, so of course I am responsible for the arrangements. It's just that the matter itself belongs to the Elf Kingdom, and we are just away troops, so of course we have to ask others for their opinions in name.
After the Queen agreed to my request, I began to send boarding troops. These people could not be sent according to the general requirements of warships. First of all, there was no need for the people in the engine room to participate. Anyway, there was no ship left, so I would watch the fun when I went there. The second was to bring combat personnel, and no one knew if there were orcs on it.
After sending these people out, I started to install turrets in the front of the city. Before, because I caught up with the technical team in time, most of our heavy weapons were saved with mercy. Now, in this kind of siege battle, there is a fixed turret of Biling and a heavy artillery here, and I believe that the Orc Castle cannot even be left.
I didn't bother to set up the turret. I first reorganized the personnel in the group. Because the mission system messed up all our personnel, I could not play the advantages of cooperation during the battle, and I had to redevelop a set of tactics on the spot.
There are many heavy cavalry among the newly gathered people, but they are basically arranged in siege battles and can only be organized into reserves first. In addition, since there are elves among the allies, the necromancers must not participate in the battle. The infantry problem is slightly better, and most of the troops are still neat, but there are no archers and shield players, but this can be ignored. Our allies are elves, which belong to the race that can carry eight people out, seven of them are archers, and the remaining one is archers. Although we do not have shield players, we don’t need to have them. I don’t believe that the turrets of Biling and the turrets here will be bombarded with large-scale archers. Someone can shoot arrows out of the city walls.
The elves move very quickly, and our local people are well-trained. We completed the war preparations in an hour, and the enemy has not discovered us at this time because there is a row of big trees standing in front of us. I have to say that the plant-based magic of the elves is very amazing.
Chapter completed!
