Now that we have a certain understanding of the military status on the human side, the next focus is on the movements of the demons in the main world - what they do.
On the surface, the demons' attack on the main world is purely for war and massacre, but from the demons' perspective, what they want are gold, spellcasting materials and other scarce items in the demon world. This information was provided by the commander of the 301st Battalion.
Then around such a war goal and the military status of the main world, a military logic that tends to be fixed will be derived, "fight around the city and focus on attacking people evacuating to the rear in the city."
Of course this thing is not set in stone.
For example, when the demon army poured out, it was overwhelming. For a city without tall city walls, it was almost flooded as soon as it met. At this time, there was no need to consider "how many supplies the evacuees took away."
It was only as the conflict lasted longer and the demons' fronts widened, and the humans responded to some extent, and the pace of city attack and defense slowed down, that there was an action against "escape with money".
The information obtained from the military personnel who coordinate the mage community and the mages who have retreated from the front line is calculated on a five-day cycle.
Not counting the areas that were devastated by little demons after the [Great Wall] failed, in the first cycle of contact after the World Gate was activated in this round, the demons directly destroyed three cities with a population of more than 30,000, and The surrounding small towns.
The number of cities with a population of more than 30,000 that was destroyed in the second cycle was five. However, due to the larger contact area, a certain division of troops, and the presence of powerful mages in a certain city, there were no "nails" in the demon activity area. Completely removed.
In the third cycle, the number of cities with ten thousand or more people attacked by the demons at the same time reached more than a dozen. At this time, the military efficiency of the demons dropped significantly.
As time goes by, the ability of the demons to completely destroy the city is getting lower and lower. This situation is somewhat similar to the state of welcoming waves on the beach. The closer you are to the waterline, the stronger the impact. As the energy of the waves is absorbed by the height of the terrain and rocks, consumption, the impact intensity will be significantly reduced at a slightly farther distance.
When the mages analyzed it, they all felt that the demon generals were mentally retarded.
Wang Qi knew better that it was not the subjective will of the demon generals that caused this war situation, but their own inability to completely control the brainless low-level demons.
Needless to say about the little devil, the main world faces more serious disasters from wild dogs, the "Anel Dogs" among the locals.
The average intelligence level of wild dogs is slightly higher than that of little devils. The intelligence of the dog king, who can reach the third level of the warrior profession, is equivalent to that of a child. The high-level demons also mainly drive the dog king to mobilize the wild dogs.
】
But there are some things that are not enough for the Dog King to have a brain.
Wild dogs are the only low-level demons in the demon world that are purely carnivorous. They do not even eat scavengers. In order to ensure that there is always meat to eat under the huge base, wild dogs will also fight among themselves. This phenomenon is not like that of wolves. More like two different ant colonies.
Therefore, on the battlefield, mid-to-high-level demons must ensure that there is a certain distance between the two dog groups. The intelligence of dog kings allows them to take a certain initiative in the main world where food is not so expensive. To a certain extent, they will actively avoid fighting between the same kind of people. However, this kind of initiative is limited to the time when the two dog groups are not completely connected. . These two will naturally lead to battlefield decentralization.
There is another factor, there are not enough obedient intermediate demons.
Although the demons themselves do not need to consider the logistics of food and grass, they cannot rely on the brainless low-level demons to transport the loot. Due to the scarcity of resources in the demon world, even a few subspace props are unlikely to be used for transportation. This task can only fall on the intermediate demons.
As the destroyed area increases, more and more intermediate-level demons will withdraw from the battlefield. In contrast, as the control power decreases due to the reduction in number, low-level demons will be more inclined to act instinctively.
From a macro perspective, the demons' offensive did not have much structure. It was basically a tidal offensive. They rushed to grab the loot and ran away, leaving all the low-level demons in the war zone to fend for themselves.
Wang Qi and others will have to pass through the war zone in a few months, and they need to avoid the strong period of the demons in the previous cycles... But the result of this analysis is tantamount to nothing, because for Wang Qi, the more difficult question is "How to Know the direction of the door and arrive in time."
Take the second and third temporary door conflicts that have occurred as an example.
The location of the second impact was located northwest of the Fountain of Youth, about 2,000 kilometers away from the Fountain of Youth. It would take an average commercial fleet fifty days to move.
The Lei Ming Kingdom is slightly south due east of the Fountain of Youth. Calculated to Huguang City, the moving distance is almost 1,700 kilometers, which translates into a straight-line distance of about 1,300 kilometers.
The total distance between the two places is three thousand kilometers, which is even less than half the distance between the east and west ends of the main continent!
The information about starting a war needs to spread three thousand kilometers or even further, which may take several months. However, the opening of the door only lasts for a total of three months. If you want to enter the war zone at the right time and return, you can only rely on the prophecy system. ability.
There are some ideas for obtaining prophetic information.
The prophecy faction itself is divided into three branches: prophecy, exploration, and astrology. The prophecy branch can also be subdivided into world line simulation, timeline calculation, and past reconstruction. Among them, recreating the past has the lowest cost in the prophecy branch, and it is also the main source of income for the prophecy branch.
This information came from the young master Sihuan who was an exchange student.
So after opening the door, asking a prophet to give you a direction should be a more reliable plan.
But what if it’s a mistake or the so-called prophet himself is a liar?
Belanger Beaufortan, a fourth-level exchange student, has a third-level prophecy level, but there is no way to know "distant" events at this level. Many spell abilities are more suitable for the detective field and have not yet widened the gap with the exploration branch. .
To get more accurate information, you must at least hire a fortune teller close to the sixth ring. At this level, let alone whether you can afford it or not, whether you will get it or not is a question.
This leaves only one way - go to the Light Church's territory and wait for the news.
According to the mage playing cards outside, the Church of Light provided prophetic information for the first time it opened its doors, and it was rumored that the Pope personally issued the edict.
Wang Qi himself also knew that before the Church of Light opened its doors this time, it deployed divine warriors near the opening.
In other words, if you go to the territory of the Church of Light, you will have a high probability of getting prophecy information for free, and you will also have a greater chance of getting information about the mobilization of divine warriors.
But the risk of going there is a bit high.
Wang Qi and Li Xiang brought Mei Tong, who looked just like ordinary people, but after all, according to the classification method of the Light Church, she was the type to be burned to death.
In addition, after observation, the two big-breasted ladies brought by Belanger did not look like humans. This was mainly realized after coming to the Red Electric City.
According to Belanger, none of his family had ever seen a war between humans and demons.
Wang Qi seems to spend a lot of time playing board games with the mages every day, but the city itself may still be attacked by thousands of little devils and dogs at any time. While playing cards, people often come to summon the mages to work. Even the mages outside are not very emotionally stable, but his two busty ladies seem to be more cheerful than when they were on the road, not at all like the unseen servants in the small town.
Although it can be explained that he gained more knowledge at the Fountain of Youth, Wang Qi felt that there should be a deeper secret.
Someone from a self-help society?
The Self-Rescue Society will also be the next support, and even the key strategy direction in the next few months. It is better not to go to the Church of Light to kill people.
As for the possible beneficial information about the Church of Light, I entrust it to the Chamber of Commerce to inquire.
