Chapter 218 Resurgence

Chapter 218 Resurgence
As the saying goes, there is no two suns in the sky, and no country has two masters.

Unless there are special reasons, having two people in charge is almost unacceptable to any force.

By the same token, a military force cannot have two supreme command centers.

In the command sequence of the Locke Rebellion, although Roland is nominally one level higher than Odin, Odin is a native of Donnar and has fought against the Green Tide for a longer time, and his experience and military exploits are greater than Roland's.

Compared to Roland, Odin is naturally trusted and supported by the extraordinary knights of Donnar.

This was true even for the fourth-level knight who was suppressed by Odin.

In addition to Roland's previous delegation of power, it is not impossible for Odin to compete with Roland for command.

Odin was naturally aware of this problem, so after returning to the camp, he had a brief conversation with Roland in the afternoon of the same day.

No one knew what was said specifically except Roland and Odin. What they knew was that after the team discussion, Odin returned to his camp, stayed indoors, and made his own choice with his actions.

In the absence of Odin, Roland, who had the highest status, naturally took over the supreme command smoothly, and began to expand the camp and reorganize the army.

Although he had many ideas that he wanted to put into practice, after all, the greenskin army had not been completely defeated. Therefore, Roland did not have any extra time and could only downsize the army and allow some of the crippled units to recover their combat effectiveness as much as possible.

In addition, Roland was also looking for a good place to bury the greenskin high priest.

However, since the battlefield was surrounded by plains, Roland could not find a suitable location no matter how hard he searched. In the end, he could only find a relatively hidden place and carefully prepare a trap to kill the enemy.

While Roland was making preparations, the greenskin army was not at peace either.

Because it was the first time the greenskin high priest encountered spell countering, and didn't know what happened, he experimented with his spells almost every day after the retreat.

The continuous large earthquakes caused more than a dozen scars to appear on the ground.

After repeated attempts and unable to find the reason why the spell had failed before, the greenskin high priest once again looked towards Roland's camp.

Although Roland brought two legions and an ordinary army with him, the military force in the camp was adequately supplemented.

However, compared with the huge greenskin army, Roland's army is still at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers.

1446 1 Month 25 Day.

Less than ten days after Roland arrived at the battlefield, following an order from the greenskin high priest, the huge greenskin army set into motion again.

Due to the huge number of the greenskin army and their unconcealed actions, Roland knew about it within ten minutes after they started moving.

Sitting in the central camp, Roland listened to his subordinates' reports, calmly put down the book in his hand, and after standing up, he said calmly.

"Assemble the troops and prepare for battle."

Following Roland's order, the army, which had eaten and drunk enough, replenished all the necessary supplies, and had a good rest for a few days, quickly moved.

With the legionnaires as the front line, the army withdrew from the camp in a mighty procession.

The army did not directly attack the greenskin army head-on, instead, they retreated in the opposite direction.

After retreating to a new battlefield without corpses, the army began to build a defense line on the spot.

The greenskin army was not surprised by this, as they had done the same thing when Odin was in command before.

After all, they couldn't possibly defeat the Greenskin Army, and as the defenders, they didn't need to take the initiative to attack the Greenskin Army, the Greenskin Army would take the initiative to attack them. Therefore, the Greenskin Army didn't notice anything was wrong and rushed over as usual.

Roland rode on his warhorse, in the center of the army, calmly watching the greenskin high priest in the greenskin army.

This time he did not conceal his aura and malice at all.

His life personality, which is already more stable and powerful than that of ordinary mid-level spellcasters, becomes even more powerful with the blessing of the Crown of Domination.

At the same time, Roland did not hide his unbridled malice and murderous intent towards the greenskin high priest. Anyone with normal eyesight could see it, let alone the high priest.

Looking at the murderous Roland, the green-skinned high priest's expression became serious. He no longer lay lazily on the shelf, but stood up straight and looked at Roland from a distance.

He felt threatened by Roland.

As they stared at each other, Roland naturally did not give up this opportunity. He silently activated various mental spells, affecting the greenskin high priest along his line of sight.

However, the effect is not very good.

Since the Greenskin High Priest always maintained a connection with the surrounding Greenskin armies, Roland's mental spells were often unconsciously dispersed to other Greenskin Orcs by the Greenskin High Priest.

Therefore, although the greenskin high priest has not completed the sublimation of his soul, his resistance to mental spells is not low.

Seeing that the spell had no effect, Roland was not particularly disappointed.

This was still within his expectations. He was just trying it out, so it didn't matter if it didn't have any effect.

As the two armies drew closer, the murderous intent between Roland and the greenskin high priest became more and more obvious and intense.

In the end, the greenskin high priest, who still retained some of the greenskin orc's violent temper, took the first step. He raised his hand and cast the classic earthquake spell.

Facing the greenskin high priest's earthquake spell, Roland did not use spells to counter it this time, but chose spell interference instead.

When the green-skinned high priest was casting the spell very seriously and the spell model was about to be completed, Roland used spell interference to forcibly interfere with and modify the model slightly.

“Swoosh, bang—”

With the sound of the earth tearing, a huge crack appeared on the battlefield. Then, countless green-skinned orcs let out sharp wails and fell into the crack.

Among them, there are quite a few green-skinned extraordinary people.

Looking at the green-skinned high priest who killed their own army, the soldiers on Roland's side were a little surprised.

In the past, they would fight together, but now they are only fighting their own people.

Looking at the crack that finally stopped in front of them, the ordinary soldiers were also a little confused.

However, although the ordinary soldiers did not know what was going on, the knights' squires and extraordinary people who had some power basically all knew what was happening.

Since Roland's spell interference was not encrypted or concealed this time, all the extraordinary people, whether on the greenskin side or on Roland's side, saw Roland's interference with the greenskin high priest.

Including the greenskin high priest.
