Reborn Dragon Vein Warlock, Genius Beauty Mage

The Castle of Lorient is built on a hill, surrounded by a moat. As usual, there is a town below the hill.

Although the castle is safe, the windows are kept very small due to defense requirements, so the living conditions are not good. Nobles generally live in spacious and bright manors in the town.

Of course, Stewart Castle is an alternative, because it is surrounded by rivers on three sides and is on a cliff that cannot be reached by siege equipment, so the rooms on the highest floors in these three directions not only have large windows but also terraces.

The soldiers of the Baron of Lorient were summoned into the castle for defense, and the town was naturally taken over by the soldiers of the Baron of Stewart without any resistance.

But after all, a war has begun, and those who have a place to hide in the town have gone out, and those who have no place to hide have closed their doors, and no one dares to walk outside.

Although the war between nobles does not involve civilians, once Baron Stewart loses, there is no guarantee that the noble noble will take it out on anyone he sees on the road who is not pleasing to his eyes. Not to mention being whipped, even if he is beaten to death, there will be nothing to say.

Olika stood on the castle tower and looked out, and found that the troops of Baron Stewart did not carry siege equipment, and she was relieved now.

Even though he only had about ninety soldiers, a strong castle could not be conquered by hundreds of soldiers climbing ladders, and he didn't even see the ladder. As for transporting the siege equipment from the rear or building it with local materials, it would take at least ten days and a half. By then, it is estimated that the mediator from Earl Renne would have arrived long ago.

Christine was sitting in the carriage and thinking about how to attack the city.

War is not a chess game. There is no fighting method but some profession is restrained.

Although the knight standing on the castle and shooting arrows has a farther distance than the mage, the fifth-level mage can use the "flying technique" to fly into the sky to cover his own soldiers' attack on the city.

If there is a bed crossbow in the castle, the wizard who flies into the sky will not dare to get too close, but higher-level wizards have more spell slots, or fifth-level wizards are willing to use spell scrolls, and "flying" is combined with "invisibility". ” can make the opponent unable to find the target.

So Kristen was thinking about how to knock down the castle without exposing her mage level.

Liam Knight came to the carriage and reported: "Kristen, the soldiers are in formation, what should we do next?"

Ever since he learned that Christine was a fourth-level mage, Liam Knight had obeyed her words. Such a genius would definitely make the Stewart family prosper.

"Go up and shout."

Christine explained this and that, and then blessed him with a zero-level spell "Phantom Sound".

Liam rode his horse to the front of the castle and said loudly: "I am Liam Stewart of the Barony of Stewart. Please ask the heir to the Barony of Lorient to come forward and speak."

The mage apprentice in the castle also blessed Olika with the "Phantom Sound Technique". He said loudly: "I am Olika Lorient, the current heir to the barony."

"Mr. Olica, on the order of Miss Stewart, please ask the Barony of Lorient to surrender. I swear to the true God that you and all the gentlemen will receive the treatment they deserve."

"Knight Liam, as a noble, I will not surrender without a fight. Please don't say this again." Orika said loudly.

"Mr. Olika, Miss Stewart allows you to evacuate the old, weak, women and children from the castle to prevent the war from affecting them." Liam continued to shout.

"There are no cowards in Lorient!" Orica replied.

"Mr. Olika, we will wait until noon tomorrow before attacking the city, leaving you plenty of time to think about it."

The shouting in front of the battle was over. Knight Liam left ten people to monitor the castle, and the others retreated to the town to rest.

Due to the "phantom sound technique", half of the town heard the conversation between the two parties. Baron Stewart acted according to the rules of the nobility.

Naturally, it was impossible for Olika to let the women and children evacuate. In order to reassure the soldiers stationed there, he had already brought all the family members into the castle. If they were let out again, maybe someone with no worries would open the door and dedicate the city.

Besides, after the army of Baron Stewart returned to the town, Christine immediately asked three knight attendants to take fifty people each to occupy the remaining three villages directly under the Barony of Lorient.

The castle is easy to defend and difficult to attack after the drawbridge is closed and the gate is closed, but it is also not easy for the people inside to get out. Now that the opponent's three knights are in the castle, our own side only needs the same number of knights to lead more than 150 soldiers, which is enough to deal with it.

Besides, Christine's plan would never directly attack the castle, so naturally there would be no need for so many soldiers, but they couldn't be left idle and they had to be given something to do.

When the Baron of Lorient saw that the other party had no siege equipment, he naturally felt relieved and went to rest. There were no trees within 500 meters of the castle, and only a few guards could be left to look out.

As for the possibility of attacking at night, let alone the fact that most of the militia troops could not attack the city without torches. Even if they did, how could there be so many people on the move that the guards could not hear a single sound.

It is impossible to send knights to sneak attack. Although knights who have mastered fighting spirit can usually wear heavy armor like clothes, they cannot climb up the high castle wall of more than 20 meters in armor. It is possible to climb up without armor, but in that case an ordinary soldier can cause damage to the knight, and if he goes there, he will just die in vain.

Besides, there are "magic alarm" circles set up at strategic locations in the castle, which the apprentices can control so that no thieves can sneak in.

Although thieves who don't understand magic can't sneak in, they can't stop Christine. At this time, she is dressed as an assassin (please refer to "Assassin's Creed") and is already standing inside the castle.

Of course ordinary thieves and assassins wouldn't dress up like her, but the eldest lady could do whatever she liked.

The first-level spell "Spider Walking" allows her to climb on buildings like Spider-Man. With the second-level spell "Invisibility", she can sneak into the castle at night without anyone noticing. The second-level spell "Lightness" not only allows her to She walked quickly and without any footsteps, so Christine easily turned off the "magic alarm" and sneaked into the living area of ​​the castle.

Although she is just a girl, ordinary dragon blood descendants are already the same as third-level warriors in terms of strength, speed, and physical strength when they reach adulthood, and she is even stronger. Moreover, there is a spell, if she wants to, she can kill everyone living inside.

But she didn't have to do that. Instead, she left a letter on Orika's bedside. In the letter, as a friend of the mysterious wizard Baron Stewart, he warned the other party that if he did not surrender, his life would be taken next time.

As the saying goes, don't say it unpredictably. Although the war between nobles pays attention to rules, it is not pedantic. If you don't cherish the opportunity if you don't cherish it, no one will say anything even if you kill your whole family next time.
