She indeed did not see the battle process with her own eyes. At that time, it seemed that only the dwarves saw a little bit of the tail, while the people nearby were completely suppressed by the divine power and could not even move their consciousness freely.
This was Rosalie's first experience of the horror of the Nine Rings spell, and she hoped she would never have to experience it again. Looking back on the time when she was suppressed by the mighty God, it was simply horrifying: she was like an empty shell, an object, standing there stupidly.
Bernard stared at his daughter and suddenly asked, "Why, are you scared?"
Rosalie: "No, you underestimate your daughter. I was just thinking, what's the point of an ordinary person like me going on an adventure of this level? It would be better to let my third or fifth brother go. At least they can use swords and can serve as qualified human shields."
Bernard moved closer to his daughter and whispered in her ear: "You don't need to do anything. You just need to get pregnant with the wizard's child!"
Rosalie: "Father, he is a wizard, not a warlock. Wizards do not rely on bloodlines to cast spells."
"What if?" Bernard looked enthusiastic. "Various intelligence reports show that the orcs have been involved with a group of evil necromancers this time. This is no joke. How could you possibly have only one lich on the other side? That's an entire cult. Minos City might have reached its final moment!"
Rosalie: "What does this have to do with getting me pregnant with his child?"
"Of course it matters! If his child was here, maybe he wouldn't be in such a hurry to leave!"
Rosalie stared at her father for a long time, and suddenly said, "Could it be that... Father, do you think that Minos has reached the point where he has to rely on this kind of thing to save himself?"
Bernard: "We were just ambushed by a nine-ring lich with four nine-ring spell slots! Although the lich was killed by Master Wang, there is no guarantee that such a powerful lich will not have any tricks up his sleeve. He might reappear next week!"
Rosalie: "How do you know that a nine-ring lich has four nine-ring spell slots?"
"Because I was receiving the mages who came to rescue when the attack happened, so they explained all the spells in detail!"
Rosalie: "So they think the lich used four ninth-level spells?"
"The spies were using crystal balls to broadcast the situation in real time. The great wizards with me saw three nine-ring magics, and my spies heard the king shouting 'He still has a Banshee's Wail!' during the battle."
Rosalie: "But after I broke free from the mighty mountain, I heard the king say that the lich had three nine-ring spell slots."
Bernard hesitated. "Three? Even so, that lich is enough to kill us all. We must let Master Wang stay, at least until the reinforcements from the Union of Arcane Law arrive. Think of a solution, my daughter!"
Rosalie sighed, "There's nothing I can do! I don't know them well. I'm just a laundry worker who has been with them for less than two weeks!"
"Then you didn't hear anything that could make him stay? Put it to use!"
"There is no such thing. Father - what's wrong with you? You are not like yourself!"
At this time, Audi Myhrvold beside him sighed and said, "You don't know how dangerous the situation is now. Just now, the Griffin Corps encountered the Orcs' Wyvern Corps. The Griffins and Wyverns fought, and both sides suffered losses. We lost more than 20 Griffins and more than 40 Wyverns."
Rosalie: "Is the exchange ratio okay?"
Audi: "You have no idea how many wyverns there are. These Wurms have taken over all the higher mountains around to build their nests, driving away the creatures that originally lived there! There are hundreds of them!"
Rosalie was also shocked: "Hundreds of large flying animals? This is incredible!"
Flying monsters have a variety of attack methods. Even if you just put oil into a clay pot and tie a burning cloth on the mouth of the pot, it can be a deadly force for ground troops!
Rosalie: "So we're losing the sky?"
Audi nodded. "Yes, this may be the first time in the endless war with the orcs in the past thirty years... no, a hundred years. In the past, it was our griffins that hung alchemical bombs and blew the orcs to pieces. Now it may be our turn to have a taste."
Rosalie sighed and said, "Although it sounds like an emergency, but..."
Bernard interrupted his children's conversation loudly: "Unless the mage stays, I'm afraid we will be crushed to pieces by the orcs' air superiority!"
Audi sighed and whispered, "He is now like a drowning man grabbing a lifeline. Ever since that wizard made the tower of White City disappear, he has become more and more insane day by day. Every time news of orc reinforcements comes, he becomes visibly crazier."
Rosalie looked at her father with pity, and for a moment she even wanted to honestly fulfill her father's long-cherished wish.
Bernard grabbed his daughter's arm tightly, leaving marks on the white arm.
"Leave that wizard here! Leave him here! He is the only one who can save Minos!"
Rosalie was about to repeat what she had just said when she suddenly remembered something Nini or someone else had said.
The general meaning is that if you want to lure Wang into the trap, you need to arouse his interest and seduce him with some unsolved mysteries.
So Rosalie asked her father, "Do we have any eternal secret?"
Although Bernard didn't know what his daughter was going to do, he still thought about it seriously.
Finally, he answered: "That tower."
Rosalie sighed, "Father, I really have no idea what to do with my daughter. However, if our griffin army suffers heavy losses, they probably won't be able to protect the dragon carrying us and escape. I will inform the king of this news.
Chapter 124 Druid's Hellish Joke
Team here.
When Flint heard the name "Jenny", his brows immediately furrowed.
"Jenny!" he said angrily, "No, no, Jenny can't do it. I remember Freeman can also fix it!"
Wang: "So who do you know who can repair it?"
Flint: "I know what happened ten years ago! We dwarves have long lifespans and move slowly. We can stay in one place for a long time, but when we feel we should leave, we will leave!
"Every time I revisit an old place, I find that familiar shops and people are gone. Especially humans. Before I even notice, my old human friends have died of old age."
Xiaobai: "Friends have become besties."
Flint stopped and stared at Little White with the other dwarves.
Xiaobai's ears drooped and he said aggrievedly, "I'm sorry."
Flint waved his hand. "Forget it, forget it. He's been dead for many years. So I don't know if Freeman is still around."
Wang: "Where's Jenny?"
The dwarf looked unwilling to speak.
Wang: "Where's Jenny?"
Elizabeth, who could stop the king at this time, fell asleep in Nini's arms, so - probably if Flint continued not to speak, the king would continue to ask.
Xiaobai: "I still know how to say sorry. It seems that I am much more mature than you."
Wang: "Of course you are more mature than me. You are six years older than me. You are 24 years old and a druid."
At this moment, Flint finally gave up resistance: "Okay, okay, let's go find Jenny."
Nini: "Based on your reaction, I guess this is your wife?"
Flint: "No, he is the grave of my life, the mistake I made when I was young."
“Haha,” Old Louis laughed, “You were indeed very young back then, so young that you couldn’t even hold a hammer steadily!”
Wang: "What do you mean? Did Flint make mistakes when he was still a dwarf cub?"
Flint: "That's not the case. This old man is kidding you. I was already an adult at that time. But I was still studying the art of forging, and I had not yet become a priest of Cailin."
Old Louis: "He was born here."
Wang: "What? Then why wasn't he there when we tested the tower - well he didn't come."
Flint did not participate in the cracking of the tower, so when the group ventured back, he showed how surprised the dwarves were.
The king was actually quite pleased with the dwarf's surprise, but he was too lazy to say it out loud.
Wang: “You were born here, then what?”
Flint: "Jenny and I have known each other since we were little. Our fathers were friends who worked in a forge, so we played together since we were little. She had a beautiful big beard, and his beard was longer than mine at the time, almost..."
Nini and Xiaobai shouted together: "Wait a minute!"
Nini: "Flint just used a female pronoun, right? Why does she have a beard?"
Xiaobai: “Yes!”
Wang: "Dwarves consider beards beautiful, so of course dwarven women also have beards, otherwise how can they be beautiful? Just like orcs consider green to be beautiful, so naturally the greener the female orcs, the more popular they are.
"In the eyes of dwarves, elves without any body hair other than hair are extremely ugly, and all white-skinned races are ugly in the eyes of orcs.
"Orcs would paint the captured women green, and many people thought this was a humiliation for these poor people, but in fact it meant that the orcs were very satisfied with the captives.
"In the orc society, green paint is very expensive, so many orcs grind up grass and use the chlorophyll inside to make paint."
Xiaobai: "What is chlorophyll? Is that what's in grass?"
Wang: "Of course there is, that is part of the grass..."
Flint: “I’ve heard of this too. The most popular color in orc society is green, followed by red.
"They seem to think that if they paint a horse or carriage red, they can go three times faster!"
Wang: "I haven't heard of that, at least it's not in the Gralia landscape written by my teachers."
Flint: "Anyway, this is just a rumor circulating in Minos. Before I left this city, it was invaded by orcs three times. Each time, the orcs were blocked by high walls, and each time the place outside Minos was in ruins.
“Countless slaves were captured and put into the crude cities built on the wasteland to construct new buildings.
"Only women and architects were able to escape from there. The remaining men were severely whipped and their lives were exhausted in the shabby capital of the orcs."
King: "Orcs have a capital city?"
"Not only that," Flint stroked his chin, "In fact, every orc tribe has a capital. They are no longer a nomadic people. It's just that they are either at war or on their way to war."
Wang: "It sounds like this simple life is not bad."
Flint was shocked: "Are you serious?"
Wang: "I also hope that I can continue to study magic, but that's not possible. My teacher said, 'Knowledge gained from books is shallow,' so I came out to gain experience."
Nini: "Hey, that feeling should be thanked to you, teacher."
Wang: “Yes, I am very grateful to him.”
Nini: “No, I mean we should thank him.”
"Ahem!" Old Louis coughed. "So you have a robe to repair? Go now. It's not right for you to use such lousy equipment when the war is about to begin."
Flint: "Wait a minute! Repairing the robes is one of the things, of course. We also want to hire the best craftsmen to make a dragon saddle, just like Pete made for his ancient dragon friend."
King: "An ancient dragon came to the dwarven district of Minos to order a saddle?"
Old Louis glanced at the wizard and said, "Why, don't you know that humans can transform into dragons, and dragons can also transform into humans? It is said that the magic of dragon form is an improvement on the magic of human form.
"I just don't know which expert has such skills."
Wang: "That's true. The dragon form does reverse some elements of the spell, so it is indeed possible that the prototype is the humanoid magic of the dragon clan."
Xiao Bai: "Aren't you asking how to make a saddle? Why are you talking about dragon shapes and human shapes?"
"Two spells." Wang spread his hands, "Let's go and find that Pete."
