Chapter 139 Me? Fairy Strategist?
Suenflor Village, also known as Sunflower Village, is located in the northeast of Magnolia, not far from the Kroba Grand Canyon near the border of the Kingdom of Fiore.
However, the client of this mission is not the head of the Sunflower Village, which is closest to the bandit’s den, but a joint commission from several nearby villages and towns.
A small village can hardly satisfy the appetite of dozens of bandits, so several nearby villages and towns and passing merchants may become their targets.
The nearby villagers were troubled by them, so they paid together to ask the magician to eliminate them.
In fact, this should have been the work of the city garrison, and in a broader sense, it could also be the work of the border garrison.
However, the country of Fiore is a permanent neutral country. It may be because of the long-term peace or the prevalence of magic, which has led to the lack of attention paid to ordinary troops and their combat effectiveness is really not very good.
It was not a problem to maintain the public order in the town, but it was a bit difficult for them to go into the mountains to fight against the bandits.
Especially the bandits who were entrenched in the steep mountains.
The villagers had no choice but to put their hopes on the wizards of the regular guild.
At this time, the three wizards who accepted the commission had just paid the travel expenses and found a hotel in the town.
”The boss said that there were only two rooms left today.” Rhode said, “No way, I will stay in one, how about you two squeeze in?”
Arzak and Biska’s faces turned red like lanterns.
”Squeeze squeeze squeeze… squeeze in one room? This this this…” The two stuttered and could not speak, and white smoke almost came out of their heads.
The two got along well along the way, and now they no longer deliberately kept such a long distance.
But suddenly saying that they would stay in the same room was obviously beyond their psychological tolerance.
“Hahahaha…” Rod laughed so hard.
It took them a while to realize that Arzak and Rod should sleep in the same room, right?
”Hey, Rod! How can you make such a joke casually…”
Bisca spoke in an angry tone, and then she became shy.
Arzak followed up, “No, that’s right.”
”Hahahaha, sorry, sorry, haha…” Rod tried to stop talking, “Ahem, well, put the luggage here first.”
The three put away their things and went out to meet the client.
Rhode became serious the moment he walked out of the hotel:
”Although I have some understanding of it before, I will still introduce my magic.
First of all, the summoning magic. The wild monsters I can summon are… Their specialties are… Then the receiving magic, the current form is…
In short, you can leave the reconnaissance work to me, and you can be polite if you need my cooperation in the battle.”
Alzac and Bisca were a little stunned. Although they had some understanding of it, they didn’t pay too much attention.
Now that he heard it, Rhode’s ability was a bit too comprehensive.
Reconnaissance, transportation, search, defense, retreat, close combat, even poisoning, and recently he is studying how to fly into the sky…
When he first joined the guild, he didn’t even know magic, right?
How can a person grow to this level in four months? “Don’t be stunned, it’s your turn.”
”Oh.” Arzak came back to his senses, he pulled out the pistol from his waist and performed a beautiful gun flower,
”I am good at gun and bullet magic. With this gun, I can shoot tranquilizer bombs, flash bombs, smoke bombs, electric bombs, explosive bombs and hurricane bombs at any time. For me, street fighting and various complex terrains are the best battlefields.”
Arzak who picked up the gun was completely different from usual. When talking about magic, he seemed to exude a confident glow, making his temperament very attractive.
Bisca was obviously the one who was attracted to him.
Rhode waited for three seconds and reminded: “Where’s Bisca?” “Well, I use the same type of dress-up magic as Erza. If her magic is called ‘Knight’, then my magic should be called ‘Gunner’.”
Bisca carried the sniper rifle in her hand on her shoulder, looking very much like her on the stage that day.
“My fighting style is to change different firearms according to different environments and needs. If I have to say my specialty, I prefer to defeat the enemy as far away as possible.”
Rhode nodded. Although they both used magic guns,They have two weapons, but one prefers to change bullets and is good at medium and long-range combat, and the other prefers to change guns and likes ultra-long-range sniping the most.
This mission was chosen quite well, and it is very suitable for these two people to fight together. It is worthy of being chosen by Mira and me.
The three went to see the client, but unfortunately the other party could not provide more effective information.
After asking for a while, Rhodes only learned the general direction of the bandit base and that the other party might have magic props.
The rest can only be investigated by yourself.
Alzak watched Rhodes release the river crabs and shadow wolves and said, “I can also help with concealed reconnaissance.”
Bisca also said, “I have no problem with camouflage and concealment.”
”Wait a minute, now is the search stage, let’s talk about it after we find their nest.”
Rhodes opened his backpack, took out a map and paper and pen, connected the river crab’s field of vision to quickly record the general terrain, and by the way, he was also observing whether there were any dangerous poisonous grasses and poisonous insects, and marked the location of the small paths that might be convenient for passage.
After thinking for a while, he took out two books from his backpack and stuffed them into Alzak and Biska: “Take this, just in case.”
The two looked complicated. It would have been fine if they had just taken out a brief map of the local area, but they actually brought a magic book.
They were well prepared.
The two watched Rhode mark the locations that were conducive to ambush on the map, and wrote down lines of valuable terrain information on paper, as well as possible ways to use them.
Bisca exclaimed, “It’s just like a ‘fairy strategist’.”
Arzak seemed to have never heard of this title: “What is that?”
”It’s the title of the first president Mavis. She is a genius who uses her superb mind to analyze intelligence, make the best plan, and then lead her companions to victory.”
Bisca recalled and said, “I heard that the guild has experienced many wars, and each time it relied on her tactics to win, so everyone called it the ‘fairy strategist’.”
Arzak was surprised and said, “Isn’t that what Rhode is doing now? And I seem to have heard Gray complain before that Rhode can easily take out a one-foot thick plan, and it’s exhausting just to read it.”
Bisca nodded: “That’s why I said that Rhode is like a fairy strategist born in our generation.”
”How can it be so exaggerated! Gray, that bastard, also spread rumors about me?” Rhode was depressed to find that he seemed to be always being spread rumors.
“The first president can remember all the enemy’s intelligence in his mind, analyze the enemy’s troops, magic, action patterns, and even simulate combat in his mind.
Then after a lot of calculations, he can infer the various possible directions of the battlefield, formulate the tactics with the highest winning rate, and lead everyone to victory step by step. He is a genius.
And I can only write and draw on paper, make a few simple battle plans, and deal with a few enemies with low IQs. I am far behind the fairy military advisor.”
Rod heard the story of the first president Mavis from Lei Bi, and he knew his own weight. The largest battle he had commanded was a 5v5 team battle…
That’s not right. The largest battle he had experienced with the largest number of people was called “Glory of the Republic”.
But that thing is a shit command, and with his brain, how can he compare with the first generation of humanoid computer.
Useless trivia: In Fairy Tail, most cities and towns like to be named after flowers.
For example, Magnolia Magnoliaceae is magnolia, and Crocus is red crocus.
So when I make up place names, I basically use plant names, such as Dendrobium, which is the Dendrobium Village, and Silvervine, where Wendy is located (mainly because I couldn’t find the place name of the village where the cat-changing inn is located in the original book).
And this time, Sunflower, Sunflower, Sunflower
This naming style is generally more in line with the world view of Fairy Tail. (End of this chapter)
