The energy barrier deployed by the night elves should be where their base camp is.
All the Nagas who broke into the barrier had no choice but to fall to the seabed. There was no seawater inside the barrier, but was filled with air for land creatures to breathe.
There are more Nagas rushing inside the barrier than outside the barrier.
But in the face of the solid defense line of the night elves, the damage these cannon fodder Nagas can cause is limited.
Having been influenced by Sarlayan for a long time, Valeera quickly understood the battlefield situation.
"I understand. The group of Nagas who invaded the barrier deliberately delayed time to allow the night elves to flawlessly drive away those companions outside who were destroying the barrier structure."
"That's pretty much it."
Sarlayan turned his attention to the rear formation of the Naga army outside the barrier.
More than a dozen Naga casters are calling for waves to frequently hit the barrier. Although no results can be seen yet, if they are allowed to continue such a unilateral and unhindered attack, no matter how strong the barrier is, it will be broken sooner or later.
Sarlayan took a brief glance at the battlefield.
In addition to the overwhelming cannon fodder, this elite Naga Vanguard force only has about a thousand people. At this moment, they are hiding behind the cannon fodder troops, waiting for the night elves to show their fatigue.
As Sharlayan said to Malfurion before, he was not going to try to influence the situation of the battle with his personal power.
Even if this vanguard can be completely wiped out, it doesn't make much sense. The main Naga army is still watching from behind. Taking action hastily will alarm the snake and make Naga more vigilant, which is not conducive to the subsequent layout.
Judging from the strength on paper, at least in this three-acre area underwater, even with the help of the water element, the night elves are no match for Naga.
Although Jarod can rely on his exquisite command to slow down Naga's advancement, due to the absolute strength gap, what Jarod can do is also very limited.
The commander of Naga is not a brainless idiot. After being fooled several times, it will not be so easy for Jarod to plot against them again.
Sarlayan and Valeera did not directly intervene in the battle. In addition to hiding their combat power, Sarlayan had actually seen the outcome of this local conflict.
The strength of this Naga vanguard alone is not enough to break down the defensive barrier put up by the Druyins. At most, it can only consume them and clear the way for the subsequent main attack.
Sure enough, Jarod accurately seized the loophole exposed by the reduction of Naga cannon fodder soldiers, and an assault team led by a giant bear with runes engraved on its body rushed out.
The impact of this giant bear team was astonishing. Using the cracks they tore as a breakthrough, the night elves, who had been on the defensive, quickly turned from defense to offense, smashing the formation of the entire Naga cannon fodder force into pieces.
Seeing that nothing could be done, the elite Nagas who stayed outside to attack the barrier abandoned the low-level Nagas without hesitation and began to retreat in an orderly manner.
After the battle was temporarily over, Valeera looked at the flickering energy barrier with some concern.
"Although it has not been fully accomplished, Naga's goal has been achieved."
"If the subsequent main force launches another attack, I'm afraid this barrier will not be able to hold."
"Ha~"
The corners of Sarlayan's killer whale's mouth raised, revealing a meaningful smile: "Do you really think so? Think about it carefully."
Sarlayan's question made Valeera stunned for a moment. She lowered her head and pondered for a while before saying uncertainly: "You mean, the appearance of the weakening of the barrier was intentional by Jarod?"
"probably."
Sarlayan looked at the Druyins who were gathering together in the barrier to hold the sky with their hands and pose to repair the barrier.
"You also know that I am very sensitive to the power of life. Although these Dru Yin look like that, the green light flashing in their hands is just a light and shadow effect on the surface, and does not really inject these life forces into the barrier. "
"This barrier protects the night elves' frontline base camp. Once defeated, the night elves can really only float in the water and compete with the Nagas who are fighting at home. The already disadvantaged situation will become even more desperate."
"I don't think Jarod will just sit back and let this happen. Before reinforcements arrive, he must at least hold on to this last position, otherwise he will really have to defend the port."
"Anyone who has some common sense about war knows that unless it is absolutely necessary, one should never let the flames of war reach their homeland."
"Once the Nagas invade Estorante Port, a large number of ships still parked at the dock will definitely be damaged. The loss will be too great."
"More importantly, the loss of the frontline will cause a heavy blow to the morale of the night elves, and it will be even more difficult to get back the lost sea power."
This is not the first time that Jarod has set up a trap for Naga, but even this talented commander cannot guarantee that he can lure the opponent into the trap every time.
According to the report from the spy lurking in Estorante Port, the Naga side should have known for a long time that the night elves sent envoys to Suramar and Quel'Thalas for help.
If this Naga force attacking the night elves was really directly ordered by Azshara and had the entire Naga empire as its backing, there would be no need for them to launch a general attack in a hurry.
But this group of Naga did not do this, but hurriedly wanted to finalize the battle before reinforcements from Suramar and Quel'Thalas arrived.
The eagerness they showed on the battlefield was caught by Jarod, and there was a high probability that this plan would yield results.
"Is that so?" Valeera nodded thoughtfully: "Sure enough, I still didn't think far enough."
"By the way..."
Valeera pointed at the night elves who were out cleaning up the battlefield: "Are they swimming naked like this? Not wearing any equipment? How can they beat Naga in the water?"
Sarlayan: "These should be just logistics troops. I would venture to guess that Dru Yin's aquatic form is the main force of the night elves' underwater operations."
Valeera frowned: "How much of the total strength of the night elves does Dru Yin account for? How can they alone be enough?"
Sarlayan said with a smile: "Don't regard Quel'Thalas as the universal standard. Except for us who are prepared to summon Neptulon to counterattack Naga, who would be free to study underwater combat equipment?"
"In Malfurion's view, the battle with the Burning Legion will ultimately be fought on land. Why bother to spend time and resources researching underwater combat equipment if you don't know whether it can be used?"
"Of course, by now, Malfurion and the others must have regretted it. They should have been developing underwater combat equipment suitable for night elf soldiers. I just don't know if their research progress and production line can keep up."
The night elves do not have an arcanist who is good at delving into the truth of the world, so they can only rely on Dru Yin to find a way to solve the problem of underwater combat equipment.
But there is something wrong with letting Dru Yin, who is good at biological magic, do this kind of thing.
All they can think of is to imitate certain creatures living underwater and make air bags similar to oxygen bottles to ensure that soldiers fighting underwater can breathe air at any time.
But this research direction was ruthlessly rejected by Dru Yin, who came back from the front line.
There is a big bubble on his body, which is clearly to lure Naga to attack here.
Naga was not stupid, and he soon realized that these bubbles were the key to ensuring that the night elves could fight underwater.
Several ideas were put forward but were rejected by frontline Dru Yin. The researchers could not find a suitable idea for a while, and the research was temporarily at a standstill.
"perhaps……"
Sarlayan said thoughtfully: "We can produce some customized underwater combat equipment and sell it to the night elves. While honing the skills of the craftsmen, we can also take the opportunity to make a fortune."
Valeela rolled her eyes angrily: "At this time, you are still thinking about business. No wonder our territory is often complained by the neighbors that we are so poor that we only have money."
"snort!"
Sarlayan raised his head proudly: "Are they jealous? Are they poor? Unicorn Town lacks everything. Those sour grapes can't find anything to criticize, so they can only use money to talk things over."
"Okay, enough chatter."
Sarlayan swung his tail fin and advanced towards the night elf barrier in a leisurely manner: "Let's go and give Jarod a reassurance first, hoping to add more results to the ambush he designed."
