I, Lich, Can Raise a Dragon [Western Fantasy] - Chapter 40
A large-scale war is imminent, and all the forces have reduced their ulterior motives and entered a state of preparation for war in full swing.
A surprise attack by the orcs once again accelerated this process.
After several urgent reports were sent to the palace, the faces of all the leaders were dripping with water.
The entire northern border is in desperate situation and urgently needs support.
Sang Ni entered the emergency meeting again, feeling that his tyrannical mental power had been lost.
“Xiguang Fortress only has the last line of defense.” She finally couldn’t help reminding the minister who was still arguing about which city should have more horses: “If the orc breaks through again, there will be no mountain remaining in front of the imperial city. , The orcs will go directly south to our current location.”
The red-faced ministers were silent for a while, barely waking up.
The emperor also had a dilapidated headache: “It’s all gone. The Luonan Federation is unwilling to release it. For the time being, it will be filled with the imperial family’s internal library. It will be discussed later when the military situation slows down.”
This time the empire definitely suffered a big loss, but what should we do? When the orcs hit the Luonan Federation, almost the entire area of the Shia Empire has fallen, and it is clear who is anxious and who is slow.
But when the war is over… the empire will have a way to deal with them.
After this treatment, the first batch of reinforcements were soon ready to go.
As a member of the royal family and a mage, Sang Ni is in the middle of the forward army. Because it is a rapid march, the entire forward is equipped with a thoroughbred horse. The chariot where Sang Ni is in is driven by eight horses.
In this atmosphere… it is impossible not to be nervous.
The wizards Weiner sent were all young people who had never participated in the war. Although they might have their own minds, they are now focusing on the upcoming war.
So, nothing else happened all the way.
At Xiguang Fortress, the whole army camped and rectified. Some sword and shield fighters were urgently summoned to support the front line, while the generals went to the fort to hand over military information.
Naturally, Sang Ni was also going to follow. What she didn’t expect was that she saw unexpected people here.
Correct it, it’s dragon.
After the joint meeting, Yaslanza returned to the Dragon Empire and began to prepare for war. He didn’t even have time to say goodbye to Sang Ni. Fortunately, the two knew that they would meet on the frontline soon, and they didn’t care about this little thing.
But Sang Ni really didn’t expect to see him at Xiguang Fortress.
“The Orcs did not stretch the front this time, they are almost fully attacking Xiguang Fortress, so most of their forces are concentrated here, and the support of the dragons and the elves have also come over in the past few days.” The defending general said a few words. Just explain the matter clearly: “The current battle situation is in a stalemate, the orcs are still increasing their troops, and our support has arrived in time.”
If the troops are increasing, it means that the scale of the war is still expanding, and the front line at this time can be said to have become a bottomless pit-like crusher…
There are many strange things in Sang Ni’s intuition, but she doesn’t understand war after all, so she can only listen with patience.
“We need weapons of mass destruction, to repel the orcs still under attack in one fell swoop, before we have the opportunity to cut off their line of troops.” The generals concluded.
Then everyone’s eyes turned to the wizards.
Although now large-scale magic weapons, such as magic crossbows, have appeared, their performance is only average, and even small wars are not as useful as ordinary bows and arrows on a large scale.
At present, the most lethal and largest “weapon” is the range-type forbidden curse of high-level mages.
For example, at that time Sang Ni burned the fire forbidden curse in the main hall of the dark Holy See.
Sang Ni was helpless. She was designated as the main combat force as soon as she arrived at the front line: “I need a day to prepare for the curse. Can the front line delay it?”
In fact, she has prepared instant forbidden spells all the year round and can now go to the front line, but she still needs it this day, for some other things.
The general was overjoyed. He was only proposing a concept, but he did not expect it to be achieved: “Of course! Now that the troops are sufficient, in the best case we can even drag the orcs to take the initiative to retreat. In fact, we never expected that there would be a high An order mage comes to the front, let alone using a forbidden spell…”
The reason why a forbidden curse is said to be a forbidden curse is that on the one hand, it is extremely difficult and few in number. On the other hand, it is likely to cause irreversible damage to the spiritual power and even life of the wizard after using it.
Even if Sang Ni said that she had to prepare for ten and a half days, it was not uncommon.
Some people even expressed suspicion: “Your Royal Highness, although you are a high-level mage, you have to prepare for the curse in one day… Is it really possible? Forgive me, now is not the time to do it.”
Then someone retorted: “Idiot! Have you forgotten that your Highness is the one who improved the magical bow and crossbow? Your Highness is the most talented mage in the empire! The city we are in is called the fortress of dawn! The light of dawn will last forever! Yu Shi!”
Sang Ni: “…”
Thank you, but rainbow fart is unnecessary.
“I need to cast the spell outside the outermost wall of the front line. During the period, I need firepower suppression on our side to buy time for me… Also, I will have a short period of weakness after casting the spell. I need help.” Sang Ni is true and false To say half way.
“I am happy to serve the princess.” Aslansa saw the needle, his golden pupils shone brightly.
“Thank you.” Sang Ni nodded calmly, the corners of her mouth rising.
Crowd: “…”
Although I don’t understand why, I always feel that I am a bit redundant.
Then they are really redundant.
Sanny and Aslansa said that they need to plan their actions in detail and unilaterally withdraw from the group chat.
The mage sent by Weiner wanted to join in, so Sang Ni dismissed a few words.
“Are you a high-level mage? Will you curse it?”
The answer is very yes, no, no.
“Then you don’t have to consider this aspect. I heard that there are not many pharmacists in the Elf race. You can help prepare to restore the potion, or repair the damaged magic weapon. The specific arrangements are subject to the general’s arrangement. After all, Wei President Na has high hopes for you, and you must not let your family be ashamed.”
Several wizards were blocked and speechless, and left hesitantly.
Sanny and Aslansa found a convenient place to talk, and placed a peeping curse around them.
“How many days have you been here? How is the situation?” Sang Ni didn’t fully believe what the frontline generals said. The only thing she could believe was the dragon she had raised.
“I was five days earlier than you.” Yaslansar recalled carefully: “Generally, the situation is the same as they said, except…I think this attack by the orcs is unusual.”
“I think so too.” Sang Ni sighed: “Don’t everyone think it is weird? Why do those orcs concentrate their forces near Xiguang Fortress? They should know that this is one of the most difficult fortresses to break into. Bar.”
Yaslantha is much more professional than her: “This is not the most unusual. The orcs have launched hundreds of wars in the past few hundred years, and they have also concentrated on attacking a certain place. After all, the fortress of Xiguang is ten. Construction started only a few years ago, and you can go south directly after you break through here. It is understandable that the orcs regard this place as a weak point.”
The problem is that the orcs don’t like to fight for a long time. They only send troops to plunder the materials and food on the border. Normally, the battle lines are very long because of this.
Although there are many orc skirmishers in other places now, the main force is all piled up here, and the supply of troops has never been cut off…Where did the orcs get so much supplies to support them in the long-term battle? “
“Maybe it is to supply the main line by plundering materials elsewhere?” Sang Ni tried to analyze.
“Possibly, but it doesn’t make sense. What is the point of doing this?”
“Do they feel that this time is strong enough to…” Sang Ni was suddenly startled.
The orcs and the natives of the mainland have fought for hundreds of years, and both sides have a certain understanding of each other’s strengths. For hundreds of years, the orcs have not really breached the joint defense line of the northern border!
What made them think like this?
“No matter what, Xiguang Fortress must be guarded.” Yaslanza also thought of this possibility.
“What about other places?” Sang Ni had other worries: “In case the orcs make a noise…”
“That’s not true, the orcs’ lines of troops have been gathering here, it is impossible to separate the second line.” Yaslanza replied.
“I understand.” Sang Ni still has some doubts, but can’t tell him clearly, after all, it involves… the dark Holy See.
She has some ideas and needs to be confirmed by someone.
“I need your help with something.” Sang Ni was not polite to him: “I want to leave the barracks to deal with some other things, but can’t be discovered by others. Can you help me cover it up? Not too much trouble, I Will leave the puppet in my residence, you just have to pretend to come and see me once and pretend that I’m still there.”
Yaslanza is naturally all indispensable, but he still asked: “What you are going to deal with is related to the Dark Vatican?”
Sang Ni was stunned, and smiled bitterly: “You guessed it, it is true. After we were separated in the snow mountain at that time, I also temporarily left Sarros and the others because of the royal family. You know, Ellie, she, yes …Uh, I don’t feel relieved anyway.”
Upon seeing this, Yaslansa was not happy to ask again: “Don’t worry, no one will find out.”
A pun.
“…I hope so.” Sang Ni almost couldn’t help telling him the truth…
But she dare not.
She silently stepped forward two steps, hugged the unsuspecting humanoid dragon in front of him, rubbed his forehead against his chest, and his cheek was his heartbeat faster and faster.
Let her be greedy again, the temperature of life…

It’s great to be free to write articles by myself. When I write, I always consider full attendance. Lists and other things really affect my mood… I have to struggle with the writing and the story. What will happen to it? (*^▽^*)
