The Road Home

At night, Roy led his Half-Elf Warrior in a surprise attack on the southern entrance of Tianpu Canyon and quickly occupied the southern part of the canyon.

These Gray Dwarf arrived in the morning.

They possess superhuman strength and are experts at moving stones...

With the help of the Gray Dwarf, a stone wall blocking the southern entrance to the canyon was quickly built.

"Roy, do you think... the Rebel Army Half-Elf Warrior can defeat the Headhunters?" Woods asked Roy with a worried expression, standing on the foundation of a stone wall.

The Gray Dwarf were carrying stones the size of face plates past the two men...

"It definitely can," Roy said confidently.

Seeing the questioning look in Woods' eyes, Roy explained, "When the Silver Pegasus Legion entered the Pattington Plane, they only recaptured Padesto City and drove the Rebel Army to the Bulwark Mountain Range before initiating negotiations. It wasn't that they wanted to give the Rebel Army a chance to repent; the truth is... they genuinely didn't want to fight the Rebel Army in the Bulwark Mountain Range. After the Silver Pegasus Legion drove the Rebel Army to the Bulwark Mountain Range, the Silver Pegasus Warrior couldn't enter the battlefield. At that time, only the Silver Pegasus Legion's cavalry and Guard Regiment were able to participate in the war. Although their overall strength was much greater than the Rebel Army, it would still cost them some money to achieve victory."

"When the Silver Pegasus Legion entered the Pagisto Plateau to deal with these Highland Slavers, there was no such situation at all. Even when the Silver Pegasus Legion's Cavalry Vanguard Regiment engaged the headhunters head-on, they actually had the upper hand."

"In comparison, the Rebel Army ' Half-Elf Warrior are clearly far superior to the headhunters..."

Roy put his arm around Woods ' shoulder, and the two of them jumped from the base of the stone wall onto the grass, with the silhouette of a griffin still visible in the distance.

The headhunters in Tianpu Canyon were blocked in the northern section of the canyon because Griffon Cavalry often shot arrows at them from the north. The headhunters who came from the north did not plan to continue south.

After Roy dealt with the headhunters guarding the area, Roy completely took control of the southern exit of Tianpu Canyon.

Although they've captured it, holding the southern entrance will actually be quite difficult...

Regardless, Roy wanted to give it a try; at least he couldn't let these headhunters enter Tianpu Canyon without paying any price.

Roy continued speaking to Woods:

"Our advantages are actually very obvious..."

"The first point is a solid logistical supply line. When we were fighting, we ate Elf Biscuit. What could the headhunters eat? The Unicorn Wild Ox were driven to the Southern Wilderness, and they could only eat grass roots."

"The second point is their excellent weaponry and equipment. The armor plates on these headhunters were recently made at the Black Iron Mine. Before they occupied the Black Iron Mine Castle, they only wore the simplest leather armor."

"Thirdly, the headhunters lack experience in large-scale battles. While small groups of headhunters might easily defeat a squad of Half-Elf Warrior on the mountainside, their most obvious weaknesses will be fully exposed in large-scale battles. To be honest, they are at best a group of Slave Traders hunt Half-Elf on the plateau. Where would they find experience in large-scale group battles? In this respect, they are far inferior to the Rebel Army..."

Woods' mouth formed an 'O' shape as he glared at Roy and asked, "Roy, did you... come up with all of this?"

Woods is a druid, and his wounds have long since healed.

He came with Roy to the southern entrance of the canyon this time, also wanting to stretch his muscles.

"What's there to think about?... Isn't this just the way things are?"

After saying this, Roy pointed to the stone foundation that had been piled up more than a meter high at his feet and gave instructions to the Gray Dwarf who were carrying the stones:

"Pile up as many large stones as possible here. I don't have much time for you. You need to at least get this stone wall up before sunset..."

The Gray Dwarf buried their heads in their chests, said nothing, and carried the stones quickly toward the foundation of the City Wall.

Not far away, Sabrina, Moira, and Miss Tiffany were also chatting in front of the stone wall.

Of the three, Moira has grown the fastest recently, and she often accompanies Vice Captain Tennyson on missions.

Vice Captain Tennyson was also very bold. Every time Moira secretly approached him, he would accept her without a word and take Moira out to carry out assassination missions.

Before arriving at the Pagisto Plateau, Moira was a Half-Elf girl who couldn't bear to see dead people. When she first saw the Dark Moon Elf Warrior of the Assassin Squad assassinate the headhunter, she had nightmares every night and often woke up in fright, unable to stand the strong smell of blood.

But now... Moira has personally dealt with thirteen headhunters.

Miss Tiffany never expected that Moira would actually survive in the Assassin Squad.

"Roy is trying to keep all the headhunters who enter the Gaxi Mountain Range from here..." Tiffany muttered to Sabrina as she looked at the stone wall that had been erected in front of her.

During the time when the North Black Iron Mine was besieged by headhunters, Miss Tiffany did not actually witness the cruel methods of these headhunters.

As a Naga Sea Clan, her hatred for the headhunters was quite limited...

But Sabrina was different; she had personally witnessed many Half-Elf Warrior die under the headhunters' War Blade.

Especially during the days when the North Black Iron Mine was besieged, the headhunters almost stormed into the Black Iron Mine several times.

Sabrina was somewhat worried: she knew that the headhunters were all excellent hunters, and there were at least three thousand more headhunters lingering in the southern part of the Gaxi Mountain Range. If so many headhunters fled north at the same time, they would only be able to return to the northern part of the Pagisto Plateau through the Tianpu Canyon.

Roy is currently building a wall on their way home...

Once these headhunters discover this wall, they'll probably all go crazy.

Almost suddenly, a large number of exhausted headhunters appeared on the slopes of Aurelian Snow Mountain.

The headhunters throughout the entire Central Black Iron Mine Castle became extremely tense.

A large group of headhunters arrived at the City Wall, staring at the headhunters who looked somewhat exhausted from their escape, hesitating whether to hide them inside the castle.

A commotion broke out on the City Wall. The headhunter Chieftain appeared on the City Wall with a group of guards. Looking at the Half-Elf Warrior on the mountainside outside the wall, his face turned very ugly.

Before he could give the order to rescue the headhunters, the gates below the castle slowly opened, and some headhunters quickly went out to meet them along the mountain Mountain Road in front of the castle.

The headhunters outside were too scattered; not all of them wanted to escape into the castle.

Many headhunters want to keep heading north...

As the headhunter Chieftain pondered how the South Black Iron Mine had been breached by the Half-Elf, a large group of Half-Elf Warrior appeared on the hillside.

These Half-Elf Warrior were like wolves herding sheep on the grasslands, slowly following behind the headhunters and gradually devouring those who were left out.

So many Half-Elf Warrior... that even the headhunter Chieftain couldn't count them all.

The Half-Elf Warrior arrived opposite the castle at the Middle Black Iron Mine Castle Black Iron Mine Castle. Instead of launching an attack, they waited for their companions. Once the number of Half-Elf Warrior on the opposite hillside reached more than two thousand, the headhunter Chieftain could no longer remain calm.

The Half-Elf Warrior continues to increase...

The headhunter Chieftain learned from the rescued escaped headhunters that it was these Half-Elf Warrior who had defeated them head-on.

Sure enough, the headhunter Chieftain at the Central Black Iron Mine Castle suppressed his inner impulse and patiently waited all night, only to find the next morning that the number of the Half-Elf warband had surged to over four thousand...

These Half-Elf Warrior have already begun to surround the Central Black Iron Mine Castle.

The headhunter Chieftain did not want to be trapped in the castle by the Half-Elf Warrior. Their predicament was almost exactly the same as that of the headhunters in the South Black Iron Mine: they had no food reserves and would likely starve if trapped in the castle.

The headhunter Chieftain had no choice but to bite the bullet and lead all the headhunters in the castle out of the city.

By the evening of the second day, seeing an increasing number of Half-Elf Warrior, the headhunters finally couldn't resist launching a small-scale probe.

As night fell, the Assassin Squad took over the battlefield.

The headhunters quickly retreated back into the castle, Half-Elf Warrior slowly approached the castle from the hillside.

By the morning of the third day, the Half-Elf Warrior had surrounded most of the castle, except for the hillside on the north side of the castle, where the encirclement had not yet been completed.

The headhunter Chieftain broke out in a cold sweat and quickly summoned all the headhunters in the castle.

Then the castle gates were opened, and nearly two thousand headhunters poured out of the castle in a mighty procession...

The headhunters rushed out of the castle, and a battle was about to break out in front of it.

The Half-Elf Warrior became even more ferocious this time. Nearly a thousand Sword Dancer surged towards the headhunters like a giant wave. During the ensuing battle, the Half-Elf Warrior once again displayed their formidable strength, with more than five thousand Half-Elf Warrior directly scattering the two thousand headhunters.

On the vast mountainous terrain, many Half-Elf Warrior began hunting down the headhunters...

At this moment, the Headhunters of the Gaxi Mountain Range completely collapsed. Unable to organize an effective resistance, the Headhunters were pursued by the Half-Elf Warrior, who chased down fewer than two thousand Headhunters, continuing north from Aorilian Mountain in the Gaxi Mountain Range.

The first group of headhunters who arrived at Tianpu Valley wore their shoes almost out.

The headhunters were covered in wounds and had been eating grass roots and moss in the mountains and wilderness for several days, which made them weak and powerless. Some of them were even slightly poisoned, vomiting and having diarrhea. They didn't even have the strength to lift their War Blade.

At this time, at the Southern Entrance of Skyfall Canyon, there is a wall less than five meters high, which is entirely made of stone blocks.

On this very stone wall, a group of Half-Elf Warrior, longbows in hand, were watching the headhunter intently. As the headhunter tried to approach, a hail of Wolf Tooth Arrow rained down upon him.

Roy, Sabrina, Woods stood on the stone wall, waiting for the headhunters to slowly walk down the hillside.

The fleeing headhunters were in a sorry state, but they showed no sign of stopping. Despite seeing a group of Half-Elf standing on the City Wall, they continued to walk towards them step by step.

Even the arrows they fired couldn't stop their advance...

Headhunters kept getting hit by arrows, headhunters kept falling, but no headhunter stopped.

Roy picked up a small flag and waved it at the Griffon Corps hidden on the mountainside. Then a flock of griffins took to the air...

A group of Half-Elf hunters rode griffins into the sky and began firing arrows at the headhunters on the hillside.

The headhunters, their bodies riddled with Wolf Tooth Arrow, charged forward despite their fear.

The first to step forward was Miss Tiffany. She took out a bundle of Magic Scroll from the stone wall. These Magic Scroll were drawn by her using deep-sea ink mixed with spinel powder, and each scroll was filled with Magic Power.

Miss Tiffany softly chanted a spell, and the Magic Scroll in her hand unfurled, forming a pale blue Magic Rune Array. All the Magic Power flowing on the Magic Scroll converged, creating a rich aura of Ice Elemental...

Snowflakes were swept up from the stone wall by the strong north wind, creating a scene resembling snow being blown around by the wind...

Countless snowflakes were mixed with tiny icicles, the sharp icicles almost all six-pointed stars, which, caught in the wind and snow, pelted the headshunters' faces and bodies.

Instantly, the headhunters' faces were slashed by sharp icicles, and the biting north wind froze the wounds into a layer of ice crystals.

'snowstorm'

Miss Tiffany had to keep tearing open Magic Scroll and chanting Magic Scroll to activate them in order to barely keep up with the battlefield blizzard.

The blizzard only gradually subsided after Miss Tiffany burned all five precious Magic Scroll in one go.

At this moment, the headhunters at the forefront were covered in a thick layer of frost, standing on the hillside like ice and snow sculptures.

Some headhunters collapsed on the Mountain Road, engulfed by ice and snow, while others managed to break through the ice and persevere towards the southern entrance of the canyon, where the slopes were covered with a thick layer of frost and snow...

The Half-Elf Warrior standing on the stone wall were shocked and gripped their weapons tightly.

A group of Half-Elf Warrior couldn't help but look at Sabrina.

Lately, in every battle against the Headhunters, Sabrina, as a Sword Dancer, has had to stand at the very front of the battle formation...

This time, Sabrina also took the initiative to step forward.

However, standing with her in front of the stone wall were Roy and Woods had transformed into Earth Tyrant Bear.

The headhunters didn't wait at all; as long as they could still move, they rushed towards the canyon entrance.

Arrows rained down from the sky, and headhunters fell one after another.

Finally, headhunters covered in ice and snow rushed to the foot of the City Wall. Sabrina swung her Serugi Longsword and cleaved one of the headhunters who had climbed up from below the stone wall off the wall. Only then did she realize that the headhunter who had climbed up from below the stone wall was so weak that he was powerless to resist.
