In previous battles, the Destroyer had shown great combat effectiveness, but their fighting style could only be described as simple and brutal. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info They don't make any complicated tactical moves, just a simple frontal charge - or, as one image on Earth puts it, brainless pigs. Of course, objectively speaking, the pig is enough. These creatures are built to fight, and their ability to fight, even if they are just brainless, is enough to tear through unprepared human defenses and inflict heavy casualties (which is one of the reasons why many people believe they are not highly intelligent). But now it seems that things are clearly not that simple.

The operational ideas of the remnants of those local armies were also planned to deal with the brainless pig suddenness. But in fact, the Destroyer has shown an extremely good or cunning fighting quality. Difficult tactical actions such as flank detours, suspicious soldiers, encirclement reinforcements, retreat and counterattack, etc., all showed the Destroyer once. The remnants of the local armies were in formation, intending to meet the enemy's brainless spurt, but instead faced with an extremely clever and swift offensive. Every attack hits their weak point. They had little to offer a fierce resistance until they were routed.

Fortunately, despite the Destroyer's elite and formidable strength, there are not many of them. Therefore, even if the enemy is defeated, there is no way to annihilate a single body. In addition, the remnants of the local army were all retreated from the battlefield, and other skills were not necessarily, but the escape time was first-class. More than one corps had vehicles ready in advance for the retreat. Well, although the final result was an indisputable fiasco, the losses were in terms of weapons and equipment, and most of the personnel survived. It is precisely because of this that Aqi was able to get this extremely detailed report.

"Sure enough...... It's not that simple......" Ah Qi said softly to herself, looking at the report. "Kecha Goyat is far more dangerous than expected. ”

Of course, this is an afterthought. In fact, after understanding the existence of demon-resistant metal, anyone would have to change their original opinion of Kecha Goat. This invasion of creatures from an exotic land (it must be said that although it may seem powerful and dangerous, the real higher-ups see Kecha Goyat as a typical example of their own inadequacy, just like many races that have invaded this world before) is clearly not easy to deal with. This sentence does not mean only how powerful it and the army under its command are, but also that its wisdom may be beyond imagination.

Although Aqi is just a small fish at the bottom in terms of the power structure of this world, or somewhere between a small fish and a small shrimp. However, even with her eye, there is something special to be read in the report.

“…… In other words, did Kecha Goyat use this method to hide part of his strength? Does this mean that a trap was left in place from the beginning, waiting for us to rush up and hit his head and break the bloodstream? It's a pity, because of the timely discovery of the anti-magic metal, or is it that its patience has run out and can't wait?"

This is not incomprehensible. However, Aqi knew that for war, this was just a small trick. It is the strength of both sides that really determines the war.

She was convinced that Kecha Goat did not have the ability to contend with both the Radiant Moon and the Stygian Moon. If it had this power, the city of Gasha would never have survived to the present day.

Although the city of Gasha had a small number of troops, it was overwhelmingly superior compared to the patrols opposite them. The reason why he has been on the defensive and has not taken action is that he has not judged the strength of Kecha Goyat's rear.

How much strength does Kecha Goat have as a whole? How much strength does Kecha Goat retain on this front? Are the patrols in front of it all the strength it has here? If the patrol is wiped out, how many troops can Kecha Goyat mobilize from behind? Or does it seem to have a fierce war with the Stygian Moon, but in fact it has not gone all out? Will a rash counteroffensive provoke it to provoke a frenzied retaliatory counteroffensive?

Also, what will Kecha Goat do if he finds himself outstretched, and will he throw himself into the arms of the Stygian Moon again?

It was the great power shown by Kecha Goyat that made the Huiyue camp be held back by these scruples, and the front line did not dare to act. Moreover, the discovery of anti-magic metal has just made the high-level maintain an extremely cautious attitude.

But if you do nothing like that, stand aside and watch the enemies - both the Moon and the Kecha Goats - fight each other in their own territory. So, what's the point of placing such an army on the front line? If a soldier is paralyzed by scruples, is he really still a soldier? The most important thing is that he can watch the duel between the Stygian Moon and Kaicha Goat, and do nothing? If Kaicha Koat's support is good, if Kaicha Koat is eliminated, then the power of all kinds of science and technology that can shake the world, such as the manufacturing method of anti-magic metal, will fall into the hands of Hasty Moon. What will happen then?

Those practices at the top are cautious on the surface, but in fact they are stupid!

Ah Qi put down the report paper and sorted out her thoughts a little before continuing to read. After a series of defeats, the last one finally became the only victory in the whole battle - the only victory, but there was really nothing to brag about. It's not because the combat units are particularly strong, it's not because they've found a weakness in Kecha Goyat or something. Only because they occupied a particularly advantageous pass, blocked with electromagnetic turrets. There was really nothing to say in this situation, and Kecha Goyat could only attack head-on. Of course, they can also go around in super big circles, but tactically, doing so is typical of delayed fighters. So the Destroyers did just that—but unfortunately, they met a marksman.

With extremely favorable terrain conditions and accurate shooting, the destroyer suffered considerable casualties. From this it can be seen that the Destroyer is not really as intelligent as a machine or a beast, and does not even know whether to live or die. They also know how to retreat when the price is not proportional to the gains they receive, and when the losses become meaningless. So they abandoned this insignificant and mine and left it into human hands. Not only that, but considering the poor terrain, or the previous casualties, they did not try to retake the place later, but gave up the territory by default.

"Marksman...... Lu Wu?" "Ah Qi remembered the name. When a group of people set off in a small group, two warlocks took the lead in reporting pseudonyms when they introduced themselves, and then everyone else reported pseudonyms when they introduced themselves. So Lu Wu, the only one who reported his real name, was particularly eye-catching, at least Ah Qi still remembered that it was said that he should be from a civilian background, but he was forcibly conscripted into the army because of accidental factors, and finally became the supreme commander of a legion - of course, there were only dozens of people left in the legion. "This guy has a talent for shooting?"

But when we were together, I didn't seem to feel it at all. This is not surprising, as from the beginning to the end, there don't seem to be many opportunities to show off one's fighting skills.

Aki casually put the report aside, and found that there was another report at the end. This report is much shorter, and it is not a report of the battle. It looks like I got it by mistake.

The content of the report is not complicated, but in simple terms, it is that another team that went to "investigate" the fallen Floating Fortress has been attacked by the Destroyer. The situation was very similar to the last time Aki had encountered, the only difference was that there was not a single warlock as powerful as a bald head in that team. The destroyers who came from the attack were not scattered as they were when Aqi encountered, thus giving the investigation team a chance to break through.

So the situation of the investigation team was very bad - they suffered heavy losses, and the last few members were trapped in the ruins of the floating fortress. Although the door is temporarily blocked, the Destroyer's weapons are not only melee weapons, but they are also quick to dig holes. In short, the situation of the investigation team is that they are trapped inside and waiting to die. In this situation, the survivors of the investigation team, who had no other choice, activated communication with the rear and reported the situation they were facing to their superiors. But I don't know what the reason is, maybe his terminal is damaged, or he is too panicked in the life and death situation, in short, he chose the public channel. This means that, in addition to his superiors, many other people, as long as they have sufficient authority, can receive this message of his death.

Of course, that's fine. After all, it is quite remarkable to be able to abide by the duties in this situation and report the situation to the rear. It's not fair to ask for more. But among the many materials found in the ruins, there is a rather important and rather strange document, which is a research paper on warlocks and magic, which mentions a magical magic called "devouring". A spell that any warlock can use. This magic allows a warlock to absorb some of the deceased's magic for a short period of time after the death of another warlock.

In other words, if a warlock can kill another warlock, then he can use it to increase his strength.

Well, it sounds almost like a myth. This kind of thing has been unheard of for thousands of years. Warlock strength is talented, and skill requires skill - this is already common knowledge. Not to mention a warlock, even an ordinary person like Ah Qi knows it clearly.

And most importantly, although this paper looks decent, if you read it closely, you will find that it is completely hypothetical, and there is no reliable evidence. In other words, the research paper is based on a hypothesis and then concocts a whole new kind of magic. How can there be such a thing in this world?

It feels like it's a fiction of an ordinary person, like a fairy tale told to children before they go to bed.

But it must be said that this fictional story is quite fascinating. If Aki was a warlock, she believed she would sneak it around to see if the magic would work.

But Aqi is not a warlock. So she quickly threw this thing out of her mind. Of the three reports, the first and third are meaningless, and only the second is meaningful.

However, just as she was about to read it again, a bell rang outside.

"Lieutenant Colonel, Your Excellency Ivan asks to see you. As the bell rang, the voice of her orderly rang outside.

"Ivan?" it took a moment for Aki to remember the familiar name of Ivan.

That's right, a familiar name indeed. Commander Ivan! Among the remnants of hundreds of local legions, it can be said that his legion is the only one that has basically not suffered losses. If it weren't for the despicable practice of leaving friendly troops and fleeing before, it is estimated that the entire legion would have been incorporated into the regular army.

Aqi used to attach great importance to the dead old man. Because in her opinion, Ivan's army was her only hope - if there was any meaning to her former position as Ombudsman, then that meaning should be in Ivan.

Of course, it turned out that Aqi was thinking too much. That old man really deserves to be an old fox who can leave his allies and flee on the battlefield, and his actions are extremely bad and shameless. For the various discounts given by Aqi, he did not refuse to come, but for the various requests made by Aqi, he talked about him while playing haha. When Ah Qi held a training class before, Ivan also immediately and generously sent a group of officers under him for training, but he couldn't come because he was sick.

This time, the remnants of the local army on the edge of Gasher City united to try to retake the mining area, and it was this old man who led the operation. So when he saw that Ivan's army had suffered heavy losses in the report just now, Aqi really had a pleasure that was difficult to describe.

But what is he doing now? Is he here to ask for help? Unfortunately, it's too late.
