With the simple spell of [Thorns] as the core, although the tactics that Alice called [Anti-Injury Flow] have such and such shortcomings, such as slow movement, lack of mobility, and insufficient active lethality, these shortcomings have been covered up in such a battlefield, in front of those countless fishmen.

At least these turtles can kill at least double-digit fishmen before they die, and this kind of efficiency can't even be compared to some weaker sea beasts in such a battlefield, which is why Alice is amazed by this tactic.

After all, the quality of a tactic does not depend on the person who invented it, nor does it have anything to do with the so-called courage and justice, but depends on the effect of the tactic and whether it can achieve the results that the commander needs to achieve.

Hundreds of sea turtles, under the orders of the Krakens, formed a dam one after another, blocking the torrent formed by the fish-men, and at the same time, Alice also saw that around the Kraken's formation, the warriors belonging to other tribes of the alliance began to move backwards, apparently planning to take advantage of this little effort, launch a wave of charges, and seize the initiative on the battlefield.

Alice didn't think it was a wise choice for those people's actions, even if she wasn't a good conductor, she knew that a short-term advantage was meaningless in front of those fishmen who had an absolute advantage in numbers, and hoping to turn the situation around with a single blow was nothing more than a dream.

At this moment, what should be done more is to exchange space for time, use the vast characteristics of the sea to lengthen the formation of the fish-man army, and take advantage of the strength of the single unit of the allied army over the fish-men, constantly consuming the number of the other party.

Of course, if the formation of the fishmen is stretched very long, then the shamans who are protected in the middle may have a flaw, and at that time, a single decapitation tactic can repeat the situation on the entire battlefield.

After all, war is like this, constantly using one's own strengths to eliminate the shortcomings of the other side, until it can reach a very large disparity in strength between the two, and decide the winner in one blow, after all, in such a war, the role of the strong has been infinitely reduced, and it is very unrealistic to want to turn the entire battle situation with one's own strength.

"Your Highness Alice, look over there. ”

The leader of the mermaid sacrifices assigned to Alice's side came to her side, pointing in the direction of the distance, and calling in a pleasant voice.

This is a mermaid sacrifice who has reached the legendary level, wearing clothes made of unknown materials, holding a staff densely inlaid with countless pearls, and carrying a crown on his head that is only one circle smaller than Ke Millie, indicating that this mermaid has a status second only to the mermaid princess.

One of the reasons why this mermaid was sent to Alice's staff was to highlight the importance they attached to Alice's identity, and on the other hand, it was not intended to be surveillance and intelligence gathering.

Following the slender fingers of the other party, Alice looked at the battlefield on the northeast side, where the battle with the fishmen was a group of slightly strange races, 3 meters tall, with smooth and deep scales, and frog-like heads that made them look ridiculously funny, but the strong bodies like orangutans spoke of the power contained in their bodies.

They are a species of creatures that usually live in rivers and lakes on land, and although they are often joked as a race created by the combination of toads and turtles because of their flat heads, they are actually creatures that resemble tree spirits and flower spirits.

They have a peaceful personality and do not like to fight, and they only keep repeating the work of purifying water in rivers and lakes, and draw strength from this work of purifying water, accumulating a large amount of spiritual toxins...... Compared to their strength that is no less powerful than ordinary giants, their psychotoxins make them even more deadly.

What's more, they have a bad relationship with the fish, because the ugly fishmen will always make the water dirty, which is something that Hebo can't tolerate.

In addition to Hebo, Alice also saw other creatures that only lived in inland water systems, such as a giant beaver beast, these giant beasts that inhabit places near water sources and dense vegetation growth, will like to bite off trees and block water sources to build their own nests, although they mainly feed on plants, but they are unusually belligerent, and have an extremely strong sense of territory, and will attack all creatures that invade their area of activity mercilessly, especially those who are also amphibious fishmen, they are the robbers and thieves they hate the most, because the latter especially like the nests built by beaver beasts on water sourcesIt was the most comfortable place for fish people to live in the interior.

It was the first time Alice had seen these creatures living in the inland water system, but she found that the strength of these guys was not to be underestimated, and the number of Hebo and Beaver Beasts in this area was only one thousandth of that of the Fishmen, but their combat power was even more terrifying than the sea beasts controlled by the Kraken that had been inflicted [Bloodthirsty Thaumaturgy].

The general defense is composed of those beaver beasts that are more than ten meters long, they are different from ordinary sea beasts, their appearance is not a smooth carapace, nor is it soft skin that is conducive to swimming, but dense hard hair, and the attack of the fish, whether it is the bite of the teeth or the piercing of the spear, can not break this layer of defense well.

However, the beaver beast's sheer strength can easily crush the fish-man's internal organs, especially in the face of its sharp teeth, and the weapons sharpened by stone and coral are extremely vulnerable.

Next to the beaver beasts, the river bosses filled the void in the defensive line, and their strength was just as great, but the reason why they were able to crisscross the fish crowd without being torn apart like the sea beasts was not because of their strength, but because of the green toxin that permeated them.

It was the spiritual toxin that had accumulated in their bodies when they usually purified the water, and the fish people who were close to them lost their strength one after another, and then were torn to pieces by Uncle He's big hands.

"Didn't they live in inland rivers and lakes, and how could they, who are not used to salty seas, come here and join this battle?"

It was precisely because she recognized the identities of the beaver beast and the river bo, that the mermaid sacrifice was surprised, and in her imagination, the scope of this battle was only in the Baltic Sea, and it had nothing to do with other seas and other creatures.

"This is normal, the fish-people do not only live in the sea, the rivers and lakes on the land also have their footprints, and with their breeding ability, no matter where they are, they will squeeze the living space of the race that originally lived there, after knowing the news that you and the Kraken are fighting here, they specially came here from the inland to join the team to resist the fish-people, it is not a strange thing. ”

Alice said her guess without blinking, in addition to the beaver beast and kappa, there are other inland aquatic races that appear here, joining the battle with the fishmen, such as those beautiful water spirits, they are different from those kappa, they have a face similar to that of a human beautiful girl, a body composed of clear translucent liquid, a kind of water spirit that can only appear in the purest springs and waterfalls, and has a much stronger ability to purify water than other water spirits.

Compared to those who need to be on the front line of the battlefield as a warrior, these water spirits are spellcasters who cast spells in the rear, they can use their ability to purify the water, drive out the negative magic that is attached to the warriors, or provide spiritual and magical protection for the warriors, and increase the survivability of the frontline warriors.

The group of water spirits that Alice observed was not very large, only twenty-three, and because of their translucent bodies, they were well hidden in the sea full of water, and if it weren't for the light that appeared when they released their magic, even Alice would not have noticed them.

"[Protective diaphragm], is this kind of magic in an environment with water, and the defense of this magic has also been enhanced?"

The effect of [Protective Diaphragm] is similar to the layer of liquid that those marine-born plesiosaurs make on the surface of their skin, and when covered by this liquid, it has a good protection against attacks such as bladed arrows.

At least under the protection of this magic, the river bosses are no longer afraid of the rudimentary weapons of the fishmen, and the rest only need to guard against the gnawing attacks of the fishmen, which allows them to focus more on how to kill more fishmen.

I saw that after resting for a while, the water spirits began to cast spells again, and the blue light appeared from their palms, which was extremely conspicuous in the bright red sea water everywhere, and the thing that surprised Alice happened again, obviously it was only a magic for one person, but the viscous liquid produced by the [protective diaphragm] also appeared on the bodies of the people around them.

Area of Effect ......

Alice solemnly said in a voice that only she could hear the reason why the magic of those water spirits appeared in this way.

[Area cast] is a very rare auxiliary magic, and Alice has only read about this magic, and now it is the first time she has seen this magic in its true form.

The laws of magic in this world are fixed, and single magic can only act on a single body, and if the effect of a single body becomes a group, it is already another kind of magic, just like [Weak Dafa] and [Group Weak Dafa], on the surface, only the number of people acting is different, but in essence, it is already two different magic, at least in terms of consuming mana, there is a big difference between the two, and the magic power consumed by the group's spells is often several times or even dozens of times that of the monomer.

But [Area Cast] is different, it can make a single body into a group of magic, but it will not increase the difficulty of release and consume more mana, of course, nothing can be perfect, this magic also has problems such as the decrease in magic power, the reduction of the cast range, etc., but this does not hide its advantages.

"The three most famous magic spells of the water spirit, and one is the [Mirror of Pain], in the name of pain, I don't know what effect that magic has. ”

In the books, there are very few records of water spirits, because even the god Thoth, who created the [Book of the Dead], has never seen this magical species that can only appear in the purest water sources.

However, as for the Mirror of Pain, a book called "Three Days and Two Nights with the Water Spirit" has left a poem-like description, and it is thought that the person who recorded this should be a wandering bard, and only this magical creature would use such language to describe a magical magic.

"If you set fire to a tree, you burn a part of yourself, kill a life, you take a part of yourself, kill a water spirit, you kill a part of your soul. ”

Although this verse does not directly explain the effect of this magic, even the most stupid creature, as long as it has basic intelligence, should be able to understand that "by killing a water spirit, you have killed a part of your soul".

In layman's terms, the murderer who kills the water spirit will be cursed by the water spirit and will lose a part of his soul...... Such a curse, even the gods have no way to turn a blind eye, after all, the loss of a part of the soul is likely to lead to death, and even if there is no direct death, there will be serious sequelae.

If you lose a part of your soul, the whole person will no longer be complete, and in this incomplete state, even if you successfully transform into an undead existence, you will also have sequelae such as memory loss, decreased IQ, and slow thinking.

"It's worth researching, this magic. ”

When Alice first learned about these spells from the books, she was very curious about these magics, especially the [Area of Effect] that can increase her casting power and the curse [Painful Realm] that acts on the soul.

She once went to the place of trading to look for it, and asked the goblins, but unfortunately she didn't get any news of the water spirits, but she didn't expect that she would see the water spirits who had been stepping on the iron shoes and finding nowhere to find them on this chaotic battlefield when she was at war with the fish people.

But now is not the time to do it, because Alice can't run in front of those water spirits right now and tell them to defect to her own men, which will definitely be regarded as a psychopath by the other party.

Alice was waiting for the right time to make a move, such as when the water spirits were in danger and appeared to them like a savior to save their lives, and at that time, it would have been much easier for Alice to make this suggestion.

Of course, Alice wouldn't go against her principles and deliberately let those fishmen break through the defenses to attack the water spirits.

Because, in the near future, the Fishmen's offensive will definitely break through all the defenses that are currently maintained, gain the advantage on the battlefield again, and then crush the entire Allied army like a snowball.

This is not speculation, nor conjecture, but the future that Alice sees, the most likely to happen.
