After the battle target was determined, Ophelia said: "The main force of the cult group and the undead monster army will definitely attack the Mage Tower, otherwise Beyelan will send more extraordinary people.
"Even so, they must have left a lot of zombies in the direction of Raven's Cemetery. Midianmaia and I have some ability to fight against large groups of zombies. Griffith, you are also very strong, but we are not good at controlling them. and a powerful mage who can cause large-scale damage. If it is consumed too much by low-level undead creatures, it will be difficult to fight against their leader who stays in the lair.
"It's unrealistic to expect the militia to fight against a large group of zombies. I heard about the car camp you organized, Griffith. The movement speed of that camp is too slow. Every time it is attacked, it takes time to build fortifications. A short-distance attack is okay. , but Raven’s Cemetery is far away from us, and there are countless monsters in between. What should we do?”
Amber nodded: "I also have some large-scale killing skills, but they consume a lot of money. Siege ballistae should be useful. But with the experience in the lower city area, the zombie tide will launch a blockade, and it will be difficult for us to get close to the shooting range. ."
All in all, we need to annihilate a large number of weak zombies. I am familiar with this. Griffith tapped the table and said: "Leave the large group of living corpses to the militia, and leave the issues of mobility, morale, and combat effectiveness to me. We will set off at dawn tomorrow."
"Do we really need to rely on militia?" Midianmaia looked curious, "Can we consume the enemy without dragging us down?"
"That's right," Griffith said again, "Everyone, please rest, I have to make some preparations, and we will set off to fight at dawn tomorrow."
Then he walked outside the door and called Lanzada and some members of the military council over:
"Everyone, I give you a task, which is related to whether we can defeat the undead monster as soon as possible and let everyone return home. I need you to prepare with all your strength. If you complete it one minute earlier, everyone will be one minute closer to returning home safely. "
…
The Shutoral of Homemon Watts are not only close classmates and comrades-in-arms, but also fierce competitors. In such a group, Ophelia has one of the best abilities. Legend has it that Lasalle pursued her for a while, but soon gave up. The reason for giving up may be that he never beat her.
During the Whispering Forest incident, Ophelia's magic eye showed amazing mind control capabilities. Although it is not perfect and has serious side effects, judging from her self-confidence, her strength has probably been greatly improved. .
Amber witnessed Ophelia's high-speed maneuvers and high-intensity precision long-distance combat on the high ground. Her incredible combat skills, like dancing on the tip of a knife, made it difficult for her to fully demonstrate them to Griffith despite her exhaustion of words. . What is certain is that Ophelia's battlefield intuition and overall perspective have reached an astonishing level.
This kind of battle gave Griffith a vaguely familiar feeling.
Yes, that’s what it feels like! A name suddenly flashed in Griffith's mind - Galadia.
If the description is true, Ophelia fought while jumping around the cramped ruins and the heads and shoulders of living corpses. Her archery skills and steps have an obvious elf style, which is very rare for humans.
Midian Maier's strength cannot be underestimated. When they fought together before, he gave the impression of being just a stable and determined heavy infantryman, but in previous battles he showed strong defensive and offensive power. For a low-level Sequence 8 Beyonder, Midian Maier possesses sophisticated heavy armor and a fire-blade battle ax that is at least an enchanted weapon. These equipments are very expensive and the maintenance cost is not low, which is not something Midian Maier can afford in his current status.
The two of them already have quite strong combat capabilities, especially when facing powerful undead creatures, they have obvious restraint advantages.
The combination of these two people plus Amber, who has amazing attack power, has a high probability of killing even the undead leader of Sequence 6. After teaming up with them, Griffith's combat position changed to support and containment, suppressing a large number of living corpses while the other three fought against the enemy's elite units.
Of course, this only works in small-scale battles. A large-scale war will still depend on my wisdom and organization! Griffith looked away from the dark night outside the window and concentrated on examining the pile of forms and documents in front of him. In the square outside the window, Lanzada and several members of the military committee were leading busy citizens to stay up late to prepare.
"Time is tight, we must not make any omissions. The quantity and size must be carefully checked, and a timetable must be drawn up." Griffith took a sip of bitter coffee. He was terribly sleepy and could only rely on this thing to refresh himself. .
However, I can’t drink this stuff at all!
Griffith began adding sugar to his coffee and opened the window to get some air. The dank and strange air has a feeling of sticking to the skin, which makes people very uncomfortable.
At this time, the door of the conference room opened. Amber looked around in her thin clothes.
"Griffith, have you been awake all this time?" The girl's long blond hair hung loosely around her waist, with a sleepy look on her face.
"I race against time." Griffith shook the document in his hand.
The blond girl came to him curiously and lowered her head to see what he was writing. The long blond hair fell to Griffith's ears, tickling him.
"I don't understand. What are you arranging for everyone to prepare? Why do you have everything?"
"This is the arrows and kerosene required by the archers. It is calculated based on our inventory, carrying capacity and the archer's physical strength. This is the transportation capacity and the organization and travel route of the transportation units that have been mastered. Raven is The information is very detailed and very helpful in big cities." Griffith pointed to another document, "This is a project construction progress estimate. I asked a small team of militiamen to simulate it, and the situation is very optimistic."
"It's so complicated~" the girl said sincerely, "You are really different from the extraordinary people I have seen. You have a, how should I say, special feeling."
"Hoho, of course it's because I'm a good quartermaster and intelligence officer," Griffith said with his lips raised, "You can praise me more."
Amber jumped up on the desk and sat at the corner of the desk, looking at the profile of the prospective knight with curiosity and interest.
The firelight illuminated her long blond hair, casting a faint halo on her long, strong and white legs. Griffith was a little dazzled and couldn't help but look at it. He quickly turned his head and continued his calculations.
"I know the answer." Amber said suddenly.
"Know what?"
"Do you want to be a city mouse or a country mouse?"
"What does it mean?"
Amber looked at Griffith intently and said slowly: "The rats in the country can live a stable life, but they cannot eat the delicious food in the city. The rats in the city eat well, but there are also many scary cats."
"Huh? I understand what you mean," Griffith nodded.
"Griffith, don't you consider coming to Pasha? You can be a free demon hunter, or a semi-official one," Amber said without hope. "Although there are all kinds of mysterious events there, Generally speaking, it is very safe. Powerful evil will not pay attention there, and you can enjoy the sunshine and enthusiasm of the south.
"With your strength, you will definitely become the best demon hunter. You can even form your own guild to lead and guide everyone. It will be a great story."
"Pasha..." Griffith put down his pen, "I heard that it was a garden-like city."
"Yes, it's as pleasant as spring all year round. Girls can wear short skirts and shorts, like this! You don't have to peek." Amber patted her long legs.
Griffith covered his face in shame.
"How?" Amber then asked, "If you are willing, you can apply for retirement at any time to Larmore House. My principal, Lord Seer Gryffindor is a wise elder. He can help you. Please ask the Earl There are many precedents for the government to select another Shutoral to replace it. Beacon will welcome you to join!"
Griffith raised his head and looked at Amber. He realized this was a very serious suggestion.
"Your Majesty Gryffindor, the Seer?"
"Yes, he is a demigod. He summoned Erza and me before this mission," Amber said. "The storm is gathering, and a haze that even he can't understand is approaching. In the face of those particularly terrifying existences, The less we know the better.”
Griffith hesitated for a few seconds. He shook his head: "Sorry, Amber, please allow me to decline your kindness."
"Well, I knew it," Amber jumped down from the table, came to Griffith's side, and patted his head, "But you must remember my reminder not to get too close to the storm."
"I remember."
"Okay, I'll go sleep for a while, good night," Amber shook her blond hair and walked towards the door, "Don't be too miserable for the rats in the city, be careful of being eaten by bad cats."
…
On April 1, 1444, in the Second Age, just after dawn, Griffith came to wake up several extraordinary people and took them to the river. Due to the limited number of living corpses in the Lower City, many areas other than a few major strongholds were once again controlled by locals.
Griffith's eyes were dark, and he looked like he hadn't slept all night.
"What did you do last night?" Ophelia asked, "Today will also be a day of hard battle, why don't you take a break."
"Because they don't rest, I can only hurry up." Griffith pointed to the north of the city.
There were bursts of shrill cries like wails and roars, accompanied by the sound of running footsteps like a tide.
“The infection in the north of the city has become unstoppable,” Griffith said while grabbing a piece of bread and chewing on it. “Last night, there were people who escaped across the bridge from time to time and were taken into our custody. By this morning, there were almost none.
"The extraordinary ones should have led the army and refugees to retreat to the Mage Tower and the area further north. The militiamen will block the bridge."
