The conflict at the entrance to the inner courtyard was over almost as quickly as it had begun, just as suddenly as it had begun.
At that moment, the Templar Knight only saw a strange silver construct 'drilling' out of his colleague's body, and passing through an invisible water surface, where the space rippled, and his colleague's face was like a mirror. It cracked open, shattered into pieces, and gradually disappeared like ice and snow melting.
Although he retreated quickly enough, he still received a sword in the chest. The blade, like a silver fang, bit through his robe and the thick ring armor underneath, and passed diagonally through his collarbone, near his right side. There was a penetrating injury to the shoulder.
"It's an illusion."
The knight guarding the temple rolled back while pressing his wound, and shouted: "They are enemies, stop them!"
Only then did the guards wake up from their dreams. They raised their swords and spears one after another and stabbed at the angel in front of them. However, the whiteboard magic tools in their hands could not penetrate the angel's armor, only clanging and chopping. On the surface, it does nothing except sparks fly. And after the guarding knight rolled back, he didn't show any nostalgia at all. He watched the guards move forward one after another, but he retreated very decisively.
As soon as he came into contact with the weird swordsman construct, he realized that he could defeat either of the two constructs, but it was hard to say who the combat craftsmen behind them were, let alone Needless to say, I was injured at first.
Out of an instinctive alertness, he detected his opponent's intentions almost instantly and made the correct judgment - after taking two or three steps back, he turned around and faced the inner court without looking back. He ran wildly in the direction of the gate at the other end.
It's just that this will hurt the guards who haven't reacted yet.
These guards who swarmed up - compared to the capable angels who are seventeenth-level alien swordsmen, to exaggerate, their attributes are only slightly stronger than those of unarmed ordinary people - in fact, their The attack seemed slow even in Fang Plover's eyes. The next moment, two silver swordsmen were seen passing through the crowd like butterflies in flowers. The swords in these people's hands clinked and fell to the ground.
The soldiers were forced back and a path was cleared.
At this moment, Fang Plover appeared outside the gate, raised his right hand and spread his five fingers in this direction: a blue light door opened over the inner court, and the huge construct knight suddenly fell from the mid-air, standing on the ground like a giant, raising his head. The dust and shock waves raised only made the surrounding guards dizzy.
People didn't even see clearly what happened, they just retreated in horror, and like the tide receding, a blank space was revealed in the inner courtyard.
Luo Hao and his party, who were charging out of the gate with the Shield of Lufu, couldn't help but be shocked when they saw this scene - if they were in any other profession, they might not feel like this. But an alchemist and his huge construct stand in the crowd, surrounded by guards who are scattering in fear. The composition has a rather static feel, which actually gives people the feeling of a dragon knight fighting against thousands of people - - Combat craftsmen are called pseudo-dragon knights. On the one hand, it is not an exaggerated rhetoric.
Even Luo Hao thought so, not to mention everyone in Lufu's Shield. I don't know how many people saw this scene and had the idea in their hearts that I could also get an alchemist class to do it? Of course, such thoughts were fleeting, and the din of the battlefield almost immediately brought everyone back to reality.
As soon as the huge knight construct landed on the ground, it freed the two Archangels, and it made a low roar from the inside, raised the spear in its hand with a 'buzz', and headed in the direction where the temple guarding knight escaped. Throw it over.
This scene seemed long to everyone at Rufu's Shield, but in fact it was just a matter of breath. The spear flew out of the metal giant's hand and hit the pillar of the gate at the other end of the inner courtyard. The knight guarding the temple had just approached the gate when he saw the stone pillar collapse in front of him, and together with its load-bearing gate, it crashed to the ground with a stone weighing nearly a ton.
He also made a sudden stop and rolled backwards, barely avoiding being buried under rocks.
But as soon as he stopped, the two silver swordsmen next to the Orphen twins flashed one after the other - like elongated meteors, the long sword light crossed the entire inner courtyard and came to him. The knight guarding the temple was so frightened that he could only roll back, and then raised his sword to stop him.
There was a sound of metal clashing, and sparks flew everywhere.
The stinging sensation coming from his right shoulder made him step back.
But this time he retreated, he leaned on the half-broken stone pillar behind him, and the capable angel slashed with his sword. This was the last thing the temple guard saw.
However, Fang Yu did not choose to kill. At the last moment, he asked the capable angel to turn the blade of the sword, hit the opponent hard with the spine of the sword, and knocked him unconscious. Although the relationship between the two parties was hostile and he was not very kind to women, he still tried his best to avoid killing people when he had an absolute advantage.
This was mainly because he had not yet confirmed whether the relationship between himself and the mystic was due to a misunderstanding. Delan told him that the other party was also loyal to the Penelope royal family, or it had some influence on him.
As soon as the knight guarding the temple fell to the ground, the guards in the inner court naturally disarmed.
If they might have had some resistance before, but seeing that the leader on their side actually took the lead in escaping, their morale naturally plummeted - even out of a sense of revenge, they simply dropped their weapons. There are only a few die-hards, but Luo Hao can handle these people.
Fang Yu actually understood that the knight guarding the palace did not really escape, but made the most effective judgment. Knowing that he was losing, his first choice was to take the news out. After all, dust storms are currently raging, communications are interrupted, and almost only the most primitive methods of transmitting information are left.
However, he knew it in his heart, but naturally he would not say it out loud.
This battle inevitably caused some casualties, but there was nothing that could be done about it. Fang Hao asked Luo Hao to watch these people, let them tie themselves up with ropes, and reassured them that the group would leave soon. , will not do anything to them.
This trick worked as expected, and the surrendered soldiers seemed to have lost their will to resist and followed suit.
"It's best to be faster." Fang Pulong ordered Luo Hao and Wu Xiaopang.
"The resurrected people will be resurrected in fifteen minutes at the earliest, and even without them, the sound that came out before would not have attracted people's attention. There is not much time left for us, we must leave this place immediately."
Both of them nodded.
Fang Yu first went to recover the mirror imager he left outside the hall.
The illusion in the previous scene was naturally created by using his mirror imagers, and his so-called bold plan was actually just to use these people's armor to disguise themselves as the opponent after attacking the first team, and then raid the entrance to the inner court.
He also used the Mirror Imager to record the image of the leading Templar Knight, and used the sound crystal in the Clockwork Fairy to record the opponent's voice, and then created the illusion at the beginning, which came in handy and successfully deceived him. The other party's vigilance.
As for the original owner of this mirror image, he is currently being imprisoned in the dungeon with other guards, tasting the treatment they have 'enjoyed' before.
In fact, the reason why Fang Piao came up with this plan on the spur of the moment was because of the current sandstorm.
The communication problems caused by the sandstorm caused him a lot of trouble, but fortunately, this kind of trouble was relative. Naturally, the mystics would not discount the troubles they encountered. Because they could not communicate with each other under the sandstorm weather, they were given the opportunity to make time differences. Otherwise, if they attacked the opponent's team entering the outer area, they would get the news immediately.
No matter what plan he had, he couldn't carry it out.
The people from Lu Fu's Shield quickly restrained every guard in the inner court, and then Fang Pliance kept his word and did not embarrass these people and just left them where they were. In fact, the reason why he wasted time restricting these people was just to prevent them from following up from behind. He needed to buy time and not let the other party know exactly where he had attacked.
This sandstorm was just a cover for him on the one hand, and on the other hand, he acted fast enough to make the other party's information lag behind enough.
Because the core of this tactic is to move quickly and move ahead of the enemy step by step when both sides lose control of the battlefield information.
This is not his original creation. There are actually many classic examples of similar tactics - they are all based on experience gained from the classic tactics of well-known guilds such as Crown of the Silver Forest, Rose Crusade, and Elite. Of course, it is indispensable. 'R' with his own refinement.
But as for whether it can work, Fang Pultru is actually not sure. Others have succeeded with it, but what about their own?
It's not easy to say.
As 'R' said - any plan has an element of serendipity.
The only thing he can do is to try his best to perfect every detail and prevent human errors in his plan.
Although the gate collapsed under the attack of the Orphen Twins, the road was not actually blocked - and it was unlikely to be blocked. After all, the entire building did not collapse, but the load-bearing structure on one side tilted. Everyone quickly passed through the half-broken door, walked through the hall, and walked toward the back.
Just as Fang Lu expected, the other party may have noticed that the outer area had lost contact, so they temporarily deployed troops to surround this direction. However, the encirclement is limited to the outer layer, or some key areas. Once broken through, the defense force behind will obviously become thin again.
Probably because the other party may not have expected that, instead of breaking out, they penetrated deeper into the central area of the castle. Moreover, this direction is not the direction where Luo Yu and others were imprisoned. Fang Piao can imagine that there should be a lot of troops gathered there.
But fortunately, his plan was to bypass these people.
After a few sporadic battles, they quickly approached the area where the warehouse was located.
Almost all of these battles broke out between them and the patrolling guards. In fact, if Fang Plover released 'Wasp-I', some battles might not be inevitable. But he didn't do that. Firstly, it was unnecessary, secondly, it would save time, and thirdly, he had been silently calculating the information that the other party should get at this moment.
After these few battles, the opponent should be able to know in which direction they and the people from Lufu's Shield are heading.
Fang Yu counted the time by holding his watch - of course, it was Luo Hao's pocket watch. His own had been dismantled in prison and had not been installed yet. At this moment, another quarter of an hour has passed since the previous breakout battle. No matter how slow the opponent's reaction is, they should have learned the news. The opponent may be deploying troops and re-weaving an encirclement net in this direction.
Then they will continue to shrink the encirclement until they are trapped to death.
This is undoubtedly the most effective method when it is impossible to know the exact location of the opponent.
But the premise is that the encirclement network woven by the other party is based on correct intelligence.
Because he had explored this area once before, because he knew from the beginning that there were patrolling guards and guard forces in these places. He deliberately arranged the order of the previous small-scale battles to give the other party an 'illusion', making them feel in which direction his group was heading.
But as to whether that is really the case.
Only God knows.
Fang Plover pushed open the warehouse door with a bang. This time he didn't have to bother little lady Fang Nini. He could only use his sword to cut open the lock. After the iron chain fell to the ground, the door opened in response. The first thing Fang Plover looked at was not their 'equipment', but the boxes placed in the corner of the warehouse.
Although he knew that these things were unlikely to be moved, he still breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that they were still in that place safe and sound.
Got rich.
Although he knew that he was not out of danger and could fall into a tight siege at any time, Fang Yu couldn't help but feel a little excited when he saw this scene - this box of gold coins was nearly one million Lisei. Well, this still only counts gold coins, not the value of other jewelry.
If they could take away these seven or eight boxes, wouldn't they be worth close to tens of millions of dollars?
Tens of millions of assets may be nothing in the eyes of the Grand Guild, which is nothing more than an investment in arming a core brigade member - of course, this investment can be reused most of the time. But in Fang Yu's opinion, simply put, he has never seen so much money in his life.
If the Seven Seas Traveler does not include the Fairy Heart, the current hull alone may not be worth so much money at the moment.
These seven or eight dark boxes are now a complete Seven Seas Traveler, lying quietly in front of Fang Plover.
He forgot about the danger for a moment and turned back to Wu Xiaopang and Luo Hao: "Let others get their equipment. You can also get other things, but they can't hinder the action. We will continue to break through. "
After several battles, Fang Plover has now established absolute authority among the Lufu Shield team. In fact, ZXC and Wu Xiaopang were not needed to convey his words. Everyone naturally took this as an order, as if their team leader was not Wu Xiaopang but Fang Plover.
Even the little fat man himself didn't realize this.
And Fang Yuzheng waved to him: "ZXC, Wu Xiaopang, Luo Hao, come with me."
"What are you doing, boss?" Wu Xiaopang was confused.
Fang Yu didn't say much, and walked over with the three of them, opening the boxes at once.
A dazzling golden light made the three of them look as if they had been affected by a petrification spell, and they were stunned on the spot.
Wu Xiaopang opened his mouth wide and looked straight at the boxes of gold coins. He turned around stiffly: "Big, big boss, this is...?" He finally understood why big boss What I wanted to say to him before turned out to be the foreshadowing here. But what puzzled him was why the boss asked him such a common sense question?
Seeing his expression, Fang Yu realized what this guy was thinking, and he coughed sheepishly. What can be done about this? His system is different from these people. He is a monk halfway. Before this, he did not have the habit of digitizing money - in fact, he has always done so until now.
Miss Etila would occasionally give him some pocket money, and he had always been accustomed to keeping these coins in his pocket instead of in the information space, as if he would not feel the existence of the money if he did not do so.
Fang Yu silently took out a large amount of money from his pocket, put it in the box, then took out another handful from the other pocket, and repeated the previous actions.
Watching this scene, Wu Xiaopang thought for a moment that the boss was performing some mysterious ritual. But of course Fang Yu was embarrassed to talk about the stupid things he had done before. After putting down the money, he said to Wu Xiaopang and his group:
"Wu Xiaopang, ZXC, we will split the money half and half."
"What!?" Wu Xiaopang was shocked.
Before they merged the missions, they had a verbal agreement, and they would share the spoils obtained in the following adventures 80/20. Eight of the Seven Seas Brigade and two of Rufu's Shield, but that agreement obviously only lasted until the mission in the smuggler's secret base came to an end, so the agreement between the two parties had long since ended.
And now it was Fang Pliance who rescued these people again. He was already acting in the spirit of 'internationalism' by not letting them take out the money. How could he still share the spoils equally?
Wu Xiaopang thought to himself that he was by no means a person who would never repay a favor, and immediately shook his head decisively. He looked at ZXC aside, and it was obvious that the latter had the same idea.
But Fang Yu interrupted them and said to the two of them:
"Don't refuse it yet. Of course, this money is not given to you in vain. If our current breakout is regarded as an adventure, you will naturally have to shoulder the same responsibility in this adventure to make it worthwhile. remuneration."
Then he paused.
"I told you before that after occupying this warehouse and getting the equipment, I will tell you the second step of the plan. This plan is extremely risky, but I need everyone to cooperate, so now is the time to tell you the content of this plan ”
After Wu Xiaopang and ZXC heard this, they couldn't help but look at him in surprise.
…
