Section 286 Kecha Goyat 21
Amber was surprised to see Kecha Goat stop.
It wasn't because of any external obstacles, but after the warlocks fled, he stopped pursuing. This is obviously not a temporary decision, but a long time ago.
"Well, aren't you chasing?" Amber was a little strange. They won the battle, but at the end of the day, they only killed a few dozen warlocks. For a legion, this may be a heavy slap in the face. But not to mention defeating them, it's not enough to even beat them.
The worst thing is that in the battle just now, Kecha Goyat has already exposed some weaknesses. Maybe the Stygian Warlocks weren't sure, but the actual battle just now would definitely be reported, so the next time they fought, their commander would try to see what was going on, no matter how stupid he was.
"No, not necessarily. Kecha Goat replied carefully. "If they flee back now, they should immediately report the battle just now. ”
"However, there were too few warlocks just now, and they were not prepared. Amber said. Although there were forty or fifty Moon Warlocks just now, they suffered a big loss at first, and then wasted too much time and manpower in melee combat (because they couldn't destroy the puppet's shell at all, so they were obviously wasting their combat power). If they had fought with all their might in the first place, and had been prepared to avoid the supernatural effects of Kecha Goat, they wouldn't have fared so badly.
Of course, if they are armed with all kinds of weapons and are prepared for group fights, their combat power can be further improved. This means that it will not be so easy for Kecha Koat to win, and even if he does, it will not be possible to destroy about half of the enemies as he does now (if he wants, Kecha Koat can destroy them all).
So Amber doesn't understand why Kecha Goyat gave up this opportunity at all.
"Little Warlock...... It was a good performance. Kecha Goyat said. "I thought you were inexperienced, but it's clear that you know exactly what you need to do. It's a rare ......."
"You...... What do you want to do?" Amber didn't understand. Either Kecha Goyat is absolutely confident, or he's just too stupid. But if it was the former, he wouldn't have asked Amber to help at all. If it's the latter - Amber doesn't think anyone would agree with this conclusion. "If you want to defeat the Legion of the Wrath of the Moon......"
"Defeated?" If Kecha Goyat had spoken with his vocal cords, he must have had a smile in his words at the moment. "Indeed, I am interested in exterminating them. But there is something more important than that. Of course, it would be nice to be able to eliminate them by the way. But I think there are priorities after all. ”
"What about you...... Isn't the purpose to destroy them?" Amber couldn't figure it out. She knew very well that these Stygian Warlocks had come to destroy Kechagoat. This means that this fight is a win-or-death battle for Kecha Goat, and there is no other choice. So she always felt that there was nothing more important than this in Kecha Goat.
"Warlock, don't worry too much, our hole cards aren't all revealed. Kecha Goyat said. "Let's say, your strength. You did do a good job just now, but you can do so much more if you want to. ”
"You mean...... Let me cancel out their magic?" Amber asked. She could have done that. Warlocks know that the magic of the law can interfere with and cancel each other out. This means that as long as Amber is willing, at critical moments, she can make Kecha Goat's attacks neutralize a significant portion of her magical power.
"Yes, but that's more than that...... Little Warlock, you've amassed a lot of power through Devouring, haven't you?" said Kecha Goat. "If I'm not mistaken, one of the First Lawyer's greatest powers is manipulating time. ”
Kecha Goat certainly can't be mistaken. In this world, you may never have the chance to meet a First Lawrcher in your lifetime, but their abilities have long been written in various books. And these books are hardly classified, and Kecha Goyat knows nothing strange.
"As far as I know, even though it's the same magic, different warlocks are often played with different tricks because of their different talents. These people with special talents are able to use some special abilities that ordinary warlocks can't use - although these abilities are all variants of magic, they can indeed be said to be very special, different, and difficult for others to learn to emulate. Therefore, these warlocks with special powers are considered to be far more powerful and important than ordinary warlocks. However, this is not the case with the First Law Warlocks, who are considered different simply by mastering the magic of the First Law - not because their strength is particularly adapted to exploring the Aetheric Sea, but because of the strength they show in battle. Even the most ordinary First Lawyer, his combat power is comparable to that of those with special powers. And their most incomprehensible and powerful power is their ability to stand still in time. Kecha Goyat said. "What I need most from you is this power. ”
"That's not still time," Amber replied. "It's beyond the flow of time. Stopping time is tantamount to relying on the power of a warlock to fight against the whole world, and to stop the flow of time in the whole world. This is completely impossible, unless this warlock has more power than the world itself, or, just a pause for a very, very small moment that is completely negligible. ”
"In terms of effect, it should be the same. Time stands still in the whole world except for you and what you have chosen. ”
"It's different, it's affected by external conditions, I can't do it out of thin air, there must be a specific condition, that is, there is a 'gap' in the flow of time. In fact, all I could do was jump into this gap...... I wouldn't have been able to do it without that. And there are gaps in the flow of time, and only the world itself is unstable...... It's time to do it. ”
"Now is the time. Kecha Goyat said. "Little Warlock, you should be able to feel that there are more opportunities for this kind of crevice, right?"
"Yes...... But why?"
"Because the special circumstances that have made the world unstable arise, if I am not mistaken...... Just tomorrow. Kecha Goat said seemingly casually. "From now to tomorrow...... This will increase over time, which means that you will have more opportunities to use this ability. As for the reason, it is also very simple, any world is a dynamic balance - it will adjust within a small range, which contains waves of conflicts of the various forces of this world...... Of course, this is a higher level of power conflict that you mortals are beyond the power to observe. Based on my observations, I predict that sometime tomorrow, the bilunar will reach a new equilibrium...... This means that at that moment, the power of the whole world will be at a low ebb......"
Although Kecha Goyat said it, Amber really didn't understand much. In short, she understood that this situation should be a natural phenomenon, a kind of dynamic equilibrium, just as water evaporates into water vapor, and at the same time water vapor condenses into water, and there is no special concern.
"But even if we have a lot of good cards, there's no need to waste them. Amber still didn't understand what Kecha Goyat meant. "Wouldn't it be better if you could wipe them all out just now?"
"No, I said it, my purpose is not to destroy this legion. Kecha Goyat replied. "Based on your behavior patterns, I surmise that they have taken a heavy toll and that they will naturally have to be reported when they flee...... And as the commander of the army, he must not be unresponsive in the face of such a situation. He has to do something, doesn't he?"
"He would take a large group of troops, equipped with all kinds of equipment, and then show the whole army the lessons learned from the previous battles. That's what you're trying to do?" Amber said. When there were three or five scouts, they were very cautious in the face of Kecha Goat, mainly tempting, and ready to retreat at any time (of course, it was precisely because of this that Kecha Goat could easily defeat them). The situation of dozens of warlocks was completely different, and the group of warlocks just now took the initiative to attack almost without any hesitation. When there are more warlocks and more equipment, especially when there is a better understanding of the power of Kecha Goat, Amber does not think that Kecha Goat can still have such an advantage.
Maybe, just maybe, it's harder to get out of it all the way.
"Yes. If Kecha Goat had a mouth, it must have been grinning, and he let out that cruel grin. "That's what I'm trying to do...... With such complete preparations, I believe he will definitely come over to meet his old friends. ”
Kecha Goat's speculation is completely correct.
In fact, that's exactly what happened. The returning warlocks reported the defeat. The situation was impossible to hide, so it didn't take much time for the upper echelons of the legion to know what was going on.
It's still full of mysteries, but at least they know how the scouts disappeared. They were attacked by a robot or something. This robot has supernatural strength and speed (and of course, a sturdy body far superior to that of a human), in addition to being able to fight with an unknown but devastating supernatural ability. The magic that warlocks commonly use is weak, if not ineffective.
The Legion has arranged a simple temporary camp in a spacious location in the underground passage (after all, this is a cavern converted from an underground cavern or river, and irregular terrain is the norm). And the top commanders got together and held a short small meeting.
It only takes a back and forth comparison to reveal the truth - it wasn't the Warlock of the Radiant Moon who killed the scouts, but the robot who came from nowhere. From the power it had shown before, it was easy to kill unprepared scouts.
Of course, the ashes that seemed to be caused by magic were no longer mentioned. It's not a problem - people are killed, and what to do with the corpses is not too easy.
Anyone could easily have guessed that this was a subordinate of Kecha Goat. Because if the Huiyue camp has this ability...... I'm sorry, but the civil war in this world has long ended. If you can defeat dozens of high-level warlocks single-handedly, what can you do when you're in a horde?
"It's a temptation from Kecha Goat, right?" someone made a judgment after the report of the defeated soldiers.
This is a normal assumption, as they are already very close to the old lair of Kecha Goat, and even if they are discovered, it will not be a big deal. But having reached this position, it is too late for Kecha Goyat to mobilize a large army from outside to return to help. There are two possibilities, the first is that Kecha Koyat is forced to take out his own capital to press the bottom of the box just to delay the enemy for a period of time; the second is that Kecha Koyat has actually prepared as many troops as possible for a battle in his lair, so first conduct an outpost battle to test the enemy and estimate the comparison of the combat strength of the two sides.
"That's not the way we have to go, maybe we can get around it. The female captain squinted at the severed finger. Although she is the commander of the legion, it is the severed finger that really holds the command.
Severed Finger laughed. This woman's instincts are terrible. This may be why this guy is not smart but can become a legion leader.
"Lord Commander doesn't seem to agree?" It must be said that the severed finger smile did not actually contain any additional meaning, but it was correctly interpreted by the other party.
"Yes, it's not a temptation. Severed Finger laughed again. "It's an invitation. ”
