Do not fight an unprepared battle. In Wang Qi's eyes, intelligence is the basis of all actions. Even if Li Xiang has attributes that far exceed those of the Seventh Ring Physics Department, he can remove the "unable to fight" disguise when necessary, but this is This is not a reason to lose your mind and do things.
The team stopped two hundred kilometers away from the opening point and collected intelligence from all aspects of the city based on the capabilities of each team.
The main channel is from the chamber of commerce, but church channels can also be used.
There are only natural church temples here. As people's panic increases, people who cannot escape due to lack of money, skills and other reasons frequently go to the church to pray and seek refuge. The local church is very busy.
Although Wang Qi looks down on the Natural Church because of his philosophy, after all, he is also one of the three major churches, and there is still a basic management structure. No matter how busy the local church is, he can still receive news from the front channels. Students from the School of Life send Used.
The Life Church is the least enterprising among the three major churches, but because of this and the existence of resurrection magic, they can talk to the other two major churches. They came to the door in the name of internship, and the other two churches also It’s not good to refuse directly.
However, what Wang Qi needs here is dynamic news, and he needs to know the dynamics of the main demon forces at at least three different points in time, which is related to intelligence compilation.
The local nature temple is now too busy to do these things, and it is also a little impatient with the students' behavior of collecting information every day.
Fortunately, the abilities of the Church of Life are naturally very suitable for exchange. In addition to resurrection, using basic magic and low-level magic, they can treat almost all illnesses and provide some medical services. They still successfully obtained the last half of the gift from the Temple of Nature. Monthly information summary.
The Chamber of Commerce is also very concerned about the trends of the demons. After all, it is related to whether they want to run away, but in comparison, the reliability of the information is less reliable, and there will be many rumors that are suspected of being rumored.
After comprehensively comparing the information from both sides, it was confirmed that the main force of the demons was sweeping from the east to the south.
Using the maps sold by the local chamber of commerce as a basis, I drew a map of the enemy's movements and planned the course of action.
This kind of thing does not have to wait until the last day of planning. On the night when the route was planned, Wang Qi gathered all the students.
"We'll set off tomorrow. If you want to quit, you'd better do it now. I won't send anyone to take you back to a safe place halfway."
"Should we wait for the demons to spread more?"
Wang Qi shook his head: "It's a long night and a lot of dreams. If we continue to wait, the church may use some magic to block the road, which will be bad."
Refer to the [Great Wall]. Although that thing was created by the Advent Body of the Saint, based on the current scale of the disaster area, even if it is slightly expanded, once the negotiations between the Lado Kingdom and the Natural Church are completed, it should not need the Advent Body. Block it.
Whether this negotiation has started or how long it will take for the Ladu Kingdom to make up its mind to cut off a piece of territory is unknown, but the possibility must be considered.
He knew that the students were still a little uneasy about rushing directly into the war zone, so he partially explained the plan:
"We will inevitably encounter some battles on the way, but as long as there is suitable terrain, the chance of casualties will not be too great. Even if our spells are powerless in most situations, a few people from the Life Academy should be able to handle it. Wait until we pass through When we go to the other side of the world, someone will be there to help us soon."
The problem is that the size of the return team is a bit larger. If there are only eight people and one bear, there will be no safety concerns at all. It will be over. Little devils or wild dogs, you don’t even need to pay attention to them.
"We're fine."
The students from the School of Life are still awesome, maybe because they have made some preparations before going out.
"Then... we have no problem." Carter spoke when he saw his opponents, looked around at his own people, and spoke bravely. Although he usually pretends to be an adult, when his words are really related to the life and death of others, he is obviously much more mature.
The next day, the team left the north of the city and moved eastward while approaching the battle line.
It was completely different from the scene in Thunder Kingdom, because the world gate was surrounded by healthy areas, and the demons had been tossing around in the abnormal terrain area affected by the gate for several days. The external damage time was short, and the damage radius was very small.
By the time the team collected intelligence and set out again, on the 32nd day after the door was opened, the point closest to the door that still maintained contact with the outside world was less than fifty kilometers away from the door, and the direction taken care of by the main force was only a hundred kilometers away from the disaster. Get ahead.
You can't go to the nearest point, because it's to the west. If you go around it, you might run into a demon reconnaissance group.
Here, choose to insert from the southeast direction.
When you go to the frontier, you can realize how crude the tactics of the demons are... If you have high emotional intelligence, you can also be a master of tricks.
The latest destroyed city in this direction is set as A, and there are still more than 30 kilometers between it and City B. However, before actually reaching City B, you can see many scattered fire scenes on the road, including villages and towns, and forest fires. It is obvious that There is a group of little demons at work.
It is said to be a clever move, because in the longer term, this kind of random attack can indeed weaken the war potential of the human side, at least the seeds just sown this year will be useless.
However, the action time of the main force of the demons is short, and they cannot wait until famine occurs. Therefore, in the short term, this kind of action will simply disperse the troops.
Of course, in the final analysis, it is still determined by the uncontrollable nature of the little demon, and it cannot be said that the demon's command skills are poor.
For Wang Qi and his team, the biggest difficulty is passing through City B, a city named Wood.
Based on the current position of the team, the main force of the demons is already in the west, but Wood City still faces the threat of tens of thousands of little demons and wild dogs, mixed with other relatively small numbers of low-level demon groups.
This number of demons, which is enough to threaten the safety of the city, is just a small group that has been pulled down by the main demon army, but it is also quite troublesome for Wang Qi, a team of only about 20 people.
Temporarily entered Wood City, found the already half-empty Chamber of Commerce, and bought some supplies and maps.
Due to insufficient productivity and communication capabilities, a local map can only confirm terrain details within a radius of dozens of kilometers. Even these so-called details are almost nothing in Wang Qi's opinion, but the front has been flattened, and there is nothing on the road. For pedestrians and caravans asking for directions temporarily, the local map is a reliable reference.
Wood City was more chaotic than the cities behind it. The army was arresting strong men, there were houses on fire that were left unattended, and there were several corpses in the street that were left unattended.
Fortunately, there were many mages in Wang Qi's group, so those who captured the young men didn't dare to do anything to them.
The Ladu Kingdom's second-line areas have not yet made military preparations for a month, which is really a stretch.
Of course, this is a favorable situation for Wang Qi, because if the military control is completed, it will be very troublesome to enter and exit the city. Now is the time, so he temporarily decided to take a day off.

“On this day, I hope everyone will make some preparations.
First, eat more and sleep more, because we may be unable to sleep and rest for several days.
Second, I hope everyone can sort their luggage well when they are awake. We may need to abandon our mounts when necessary. Everyone should try to ensure that their carry-on luggage can satisfy at least three days of food.
Finally, there's really no way to back out when we set out tomorrow, and there's no way I can guarantee that all of you will be unscathed. "
