Back on the city wall, the surrounding eyes have become different and much friendlier.
If Linya hadn't explained yesterday, maybe I still didn't understand why their eyes were so unkind before. After knowing that Rafael, Akara's husband, was the one causing the trouble, I was no longer surprised by the changes around me.
Now, I have no time to pay attention to the gazes of these soldiers, because Linya's nervous voice has already been heard in my heart.
"Brother Wu, are you okay? Are you injured? Are you tired? Come back quickly and rest for a while. Let me help you see where you are injured. Really, I want you to stop standing out all the time. If something goes wrong, I...how do I go back and explain to Vilas and the others..."
Linya's nagging voice made my heart feel particularly warm and I couldn't laugh or cry.
She must have seen it just now. Against that huge beast, I was completely at a suppressive advantage. Although I was slightly injured, there is no way to fight without injuries. Fighting without injuries is not called fighting, it is called torture. Besides, if an adventurer is injured, as long as he is not in a negative state such as serious injury or continuous bleeding, he will not be healed immediately, so there will be no visible wounds.
Linya was so concerned that she became confused, no, she had completely lost her sense of place.
Noticed my laughter. Linya huffed.
"Really, even though I was so worried, Brother Wu... ignored you." He seemed to be aware of his own gaffe. Linya's angry voice also contained a hint of sadness and shyness.
"I'm smiling, Linya. You are looking more and more like Vilas." I explained quickly to prevent Linya from misunderstanding.
"Huh, this isn't comfort. It's obviously saying that I like to nag, right?"
"Oh? It turns out that you also think that Vilas likes to nag. Hehe, I caught the blame." I laughed evilly.
"No...no, I just feel...I just feel envious that Vilas can...be like that with Brother Wu." Linya stammered.
"I don't care. Anyway, I understand it the way I want it to be. You don't have to tell Vilas if you want, huh."
"Even Brother Wu can't even think of threatening me!" Linya's voice was fierce and she looked down upon death, but the next second, her voice softened.
"If...if it's not too much of a request..."
"Of course, how could I make excessive demands on my dear Linya? As long as you promise me..." I smiled and passed on my thoughts. Even without looking at it, I could feel Linya's face becoming more and more complex. red.
"Little Linya, what's wrong?" In the light array secret room, Raphael saw his precious granddaughter's face suddenly turn red. He asked quickly as if he was about to smoke.
"No... nothing, I have nothing, grandma." Linya shook her head quickly, patted her hot face, and muttered shyly and angrily in her heart.
"Brother Wu, this... big pervert!"
"Ah, you almost changed the subject. All in all, it's okay this time. Brother Wu is not allowed to do such dangerous things in the future."
Linya suddenly realized that she was far away from the original topic. She had been deceived by her sweetheart. Not only was the topic changed, but she was also forced to agree to do such a shameful thing. It was really hateful.
"I know, I will try to be more careful in the future." Seeing that Linya calmed down and came to her senses, I didn't dare to fool her anymore, so I responded seriously.
"It's not about being careful, it's about not being allowed!"
"But the lord-level monsters are very threatening, so they must be eliminated, right?"
"That's what it says..."
Linya was struggling in her heart. She knew that what the other party said was right, but the little selfishness and the deep love in her heart could not make her watch her sweetheart continue to take risks, even though she was already standing here. Now, we have already fought side by side with him...
"How about this, baby Linya, from now on, you can carefully locate the locations of those lord-level monsters and tell me. I will bring a few elite warriors with me to encircle and suppress them. Isn't this much safer?"
"That's all." Linya thought for a while and could only agree. After all, lord-level monsters cannot be left alone, and in the entire camp, the only one who can retain these powerful monsters is Brother Wu.
"I just have to work hard for you. Not only do you have to observe and direct the battle, but you also have to search for the enemy."
"It's nothing. Compared with Brother Wu, this kind of thing is not hard at all." Linya's sweet voice came from the bottom of her heart. She was very happy that she could help me and reduce my risks.
What a little girl that makes people fall in love with her more and more.
After coming back to my senses, I cast my gaze into the distance.
Make your way across the battlefield and through a vast sea of terrifying skeletons.
There was also a pair of eyes staring over there.
"What...are you thinking about?"
"What...are you waiting for?"
…
The countless questions in his heart were conveyed directly to the other party through his eyes.
However, the skeleton commander did not respond. As always, it opened its dark green eyes and kept watching my actions.
I originally thought that when it killed the huge beast just now, it would stop it. The lord-level monster was also a general under it. I am afraid that these miscellaneous monster armies, plus its skeleton army, will not be able to stop it. There will be more than twenty powerful men at the lord level.
But it didn't, instead it looked at me motionless and killed its generals without wavering.
Could it be that the outcome of this battle is not important to it? Did it come with some other purpose?
But then, why does it have to come up with countermeasures to deal with my hell energy cannon?
I am getting more and more puzzled. The answer may only be found in the little ghost. The problem is that her attitude is very determined. I have never seen the little ghost take so much trouble to hide something from me.
It started from the moment I chose to connect my only bond. The little ghost opened her heart wholeheartedly and without reservation, never hiding anything. So once she assumed this silent posture, I became at a loss as to how to open the closed door.
damn it!
He clenched his fists and waved in a cathartic manner. The good mood of killing a lord-level monster just now was gone.
After taking a look at the battlefield and realizing that the situation had stabilized, I silently turned around and left.
You have to find a way, no matter what it is. You must let the little ghost speak. Akala said that this trip is of vital significance to the little ghost. Perhaps this is why I can't bear to look at this stupid ghost and say nothing. bear the pain alone. Keep swallowing it into your stomach?
Even teeth that can chew diamonds cannot chew sorrow, and even stomachs that can digest diamonds cannot digest pain.
It doesn't matter whether you are nosy or self-indulgent. No matter whether you do bad things with good intentions, I must take care of this matter.
…
The battle lasted until noon. As Raphael expected, after confirming that my reduced version of the Hell Energy Cannon was blocked, the Skeleton Commander launched a real attack.
Before we could wipe out all the monsters in front of us, a large wave of monsters came up from a distance again. This time it was still a mixture of nearly 30,000 miscellaneous monsters and skeleton warriors.
"damn it."
Everyone broke out and cursed, and finally discovered the skeleton commander's little plan.
All along, our thoughts have been focused on [potential], thinking that the enemy will definitely not give up this advantage and will use powerful momentum to deal with us sooner or later.
But the Skeleton Commander did the opposite. It completely gave up its own advantage and adopted another tactic.
War of attrition.
That's right, this battle is not about strength, but quantity.
It seems silly to throw tens of thousands of monsters at once. Why not just press all the monsters up at once? Casting at least 70,000 to 80,000 monsters at one time can also create a stronger momentum and suppress the alliance's performance, forcing them to use some trump cards.
After observing the Skeleton Commander's recent attacks, everyone finally saw the clues. There was no doubt that it had explored another attack path.
Throwing 70,000 to 80,000 troops to attack at one time is indeed very powerful, but it also makes it easier for us to use range attacks and harvest the enemy more efficiently.
However, the numbers of 20,000, 30,000, and 40,000 can ensure that during the attack, the formation will be at a certain distance, leaving our mages to wonder whether to use range magic? This density... doesn't seem very cost-effective.
In this way, whether we choose to use range attacks or eliminate them one by one, generally speaking, we have to spend more physical energy every time we kill an enemy.
We are not afraid of the enemy's strong attack, but we cannot withstand the consumption of boiling frogs in warm water. However, we cannot take the initiative to attack. Therefore, even if we know what the enemy is planning, we cannot think of a way to solve it.
Terrifying. The commanding ability of that skeleton commander may be even more terrifying than his strength. He is able to take advantage of the unprecedented numerical advantage to formulate this kind of offensive method that has never been tried by the hell forces in the past. The opponent is definitely not an ordinary person. Perhaps, it He was an excellent commander during his lifetime.
After realizing the other party's conspiracy, everyone couldn't help but feel a dark cloud hanging over their hearts.
There is no doubt that if we don't think of a way out and continue to follow the script formulated by the Skeleton Commander, eventually we will be exhausted and left to the mercy of the other party.
You have to find an opportunity, a turning point, to break the enemy's tactics.
Returning to the light array secret room, Raphael also restrained her thousand-faced nature a little, sipped tea gently, closed her eyes and meditated.
The one who is under the greatest pressure is undoubtedly Linya.
"The biggest trouble is still the skeleton commander." Finally, Linya opened her closed eyes and sighed softly.
"The magic circle in the camp and the means of attack only consume too much energy. I'm afraid that the attack will be blocked by the opponent, and our consumption is too huge. By then, the skeleton commander will be able to break in single-handedly. "
Hearing Linya's sigh, I nodded and said nothing.
no matter when. All mages must retain part of their power to maintain the operation of the magic circle, because of the existence of the skeleton commander.
Without it. With just those hundreds of thousands of skeletons, we can definitely think of a way to interfere with their powerful momentum. Even if it only interferes for a few seconds, with one strike from my 100,000-star destruction cannon, coupled with the attack from the camp's magic array, these two alone can wipe out more than half of the opponent's number.
It can be said that the skeleton commanders account for 60% of the threat to us, while the hundreds of thousands of skeletons plus nearly 100,000 miscellaneous soldiers only pose a threat of only 40%. It can be seen that if there is only one World Power level strongman on the battlefield, it will become a strategic level weapon.
"In other words, the simplest and most direct way to reverse the situation is to contain the skeleton commander, right?"
I followed Linya's words.
"No, Brother Wu. You must not take risks." As expected of an old couple, Linya immediately saw through my thoughts and immediately stopped her sternly.
Then, she turned back and looked at Raphael for help.
"Grandma. Is there really no way for Harrogas to bring back a world power expert?"
"No way." Raphael shook his head and said.
"The current situation in Harrogath is even more severe than that in our camp. The existence of the great demon Baal is far more threatening than that skeleton commander. You also understand the importance of a strong world power, right? , to withdraw a strong man from Harrogas is to open a big hole for the enemy to take advantage of."
Raphael thought for a moment and said decisively.
"If you really do this, you have to be prepared to give up Harrogas."
Hearing what Raphael said, Linya and I couldn't help but take a breath of air.
Giving up on Harrogas... is not that easy. In addition to many warriors, there are tens of thousands of barbarians and civilians there. Such a huge number will not be able to evacuate for a while. Giving up on Harrogas is tantamount to giving up. these lives.
