Chapter 60: Battle Plan
What exactly is Rifton and where does it come from?
Bai Xuan couldn't give an accurate answer to the question raised by Fatu.
"Most people speculate that they may have come from the deepest part of the forest. ”
The information that Bai Xuan got was actually very limited, and there was no hunting group that would casually tell others the precious first-hand information, and this information was slowly revealed and collected and sorted out before he saw it, which was relatively lacking in details.
"But the magic barrier is not fixed, but mobile, the location of the appearance is random, there is only an approximate range, simply put, when the magic in a certain place is abnormal and becomes particularly strong, the barrier will be formed. Bai Xuan said.
"The individual differences of the Rift Beasts are very large, and there seem to be many types, as far as the current information is concerned, there are almost not too many similarities, from the size to the characteristics, skills, they are all different, if you want to say the common denominator, that is, they are all alien beasts, all have extremely strong attack power, and most of them can use magic. ”
"Damn!" Fatou spat out a toothpick, "O four-legged magician." ”
This interjection has become a mantra for samurai warriors since Bai Xuan used it once in the arena, often used to accurately express all kinds of abundant emotional catharsis.
Many human habits are common, even if they are not in the same world.
"It's not all four-legged, and it's said that there are rare humanoids as well. ”
But what is the concept of human form? Bai Xuan felt a little weird, and an ominous premonition rose from his heart.
And there isn't much intelligence.
The team traveled through the dense forest, and the route was according to the route sent back by the scouts, avoiding the area where strange beasts might appear as much as possible, and Bai Xuan asked to reach the destination first, so there was no battle on the road as much as possible.
There were a lot of beasts and birds in the jungle, but most of them turned around and left far away, but none of the real beasts were encountered.
Everyone was basically silent, maintaining a constant pace to save energy, and by evening, they had already penetrated deep into the Black Curse Forest, and reached the vicinity of their destination as planned.
Cracked Rock Canyon.
The scouts had already found a place for everyone to camp, close to a high ground in the river valley, where they could clearly see the nearby terrain with little shelter, and if there was a strange beast attacking, they could be the first to find it.
Out of some kind of taboo from the original world, Bai Xuan didn't like the name Cracked Stone Canyon because it was homophonic with the martyr. This is the same reason as Mr. Feng Xiao's burial in Fengpo, which is not very lucky.
However, there is no concept of feng shui fate in this world, so he will no longer bother with this problem, and it has already come anyway.
"Thorn, tell me the details. After settling in, by the lit campfire, Fatou called the leader of the scout team, Manthorn Guzart.
The scouts came from Fatu's team for most of the year, as they were the most experienced, and there were several teams from Wonsan with excellent agility and archery, with only eight people in total.
Bai Xuan looked at Mangthorn and felt that his name was a bit interesting. Munja Guzat doesn't know who his parents are trying to prick with this thorn.
Manthorn was a young man with a calm temperament, slender limbs, and a determined and flexible gaze, which made him look like an experienced scout.
He bowed to everyone, and then faced Bai Xuan.
"Your Highness. ”
"The rift is in the canyon?"
"Yes, Your Highness. "We've tracked four places, only the fissures in the Cracked Rock Canyon are the most stable, they are bound to appear every two days, and several hunting groups have already been badly damaged here, and we've recorded and analyzed the battles we've observed in detail, and with our current staffing, I think there's a lot of hope." ”
Bai Xuan nodded approvingly, these were enough to prove that Mangthorn was an excellent scout.
"What does the Rift Beast look like here?"
"They range in size to size, most of them are in the same category, they are fast, they have magical shields, they are difficult to break defenses, and their main means of attack are ramming, biting, and magical attacks. "I've never seen this kind of beast before, and it's very peculiar in appearance......
He picked up a branch from the ground and drew a rough outline on the dirt floor.
The brushstrokes were very rough, but they could already convey the intention relatively accurately, Bai Xuan stared at the outline, slightly stunned.
With a huge head, sharp teeth, vestigial forelimbs and huge thick and well-developed hind limbs, and an upright posture, it looks a bit like a Tyrannosaurus rex, or a tyrannosaurus rex.
Is the Rift-linked space Jurassic Park?
"Is this the only kind of Rift Beast you've ever seen?" Bai Xuan asked.
"Most of the people here in Cracked Rock Canyon are of this type, and there are some similar to violent bears, and the number is very small, and I have only seen it once. "In other places, the species are more complex, with wolf-like, tiger-like, elephant-like, and supposedly human-like, which we haven't seen." ”
Bai Xuan exchanged glances with the people around him, it seemed that most of these beasts were common types, and they might have evolved more advanced than common beasts.
"What's the size of the biggest?" asked Motoyama.
"About fifteen feet tall and over twenty feet long, his magic skill is fire attack. "But this size has only been seen once, and most of them are only six to ten feet tall and much smaller." ”
"Where's the quantity?"
"The smaller the size, the more numerous, this strange beast is not a very united creature, but it can also appear in groups. ”
"Isn't it very united?" said Rakami, raising a beautiful eyebrow.
"Hmm......" Thorn looked at the elven lady and froze for a moment, "they sometimes attack each other, such as when they are snatching their prey, and sometimes they leave without regard for their injured kind, presumably. ”
"In that case, if there are groups of them, we can find a way to divide them up and break them one by one, or drive away some of them and encircle the rest. "Wonsan Road.
"How do you divide it?" Bai Xuan felt that this idea was correct.
"Troops intervene and drive the attack in the opposite direction. "Wonsan Road.
"You can use grenades, theoretically these alien beasts are still beasts, they are sensitive to loud sounds, and they have a natural fear of fire and fire. Fatu said.
"Very good, then I'll proceed according to this tactical idea, as for that big guy......" Bai Xuan pondered for a moment, "How many explosives did we bring here?"
"About a hundred pounds. "It was Falcon who answered, and he was also in charge of overseeing logistics.
"You can make an explosives pack and ambush it, but the timing can be hard to grasp. Bai Xuan thought for a moment, "If it does appear, you must find a way to break its magic shield first, and then lead it to a fixed area......
"Create a trap. "But I think it depends on luck, if the rift appears in the vicinity, it's more appropriate." ”
"How long after the rift appears, the Rift Beast will come out?" asked Motoyama.
"From what we observed, it was between about half an hour and an hour. ”
In this case, it may be too late to create a trap, and we will have to adapt to local conditions when the time comes. Moonwind said.
"That's the basic way of fighting. Bai Xuan asked, "Mangsting, do you think the battle plan is feasible?"
