Chapter 73: Misfortune in the West (Monthly Pass 340+)

From the perspective of Ye Ningning and the others, who were condescending in the rear, the defense line was expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, starting from the gaps left by the few self-explosions.

Those who have not experienced large-scale battles may not be able to imagine that it is just a few zombies with low intelligence who blow themselves up, and they don't even know how to take advantage of the opportunity to attack and expand their advantage, why just opening a gap in the defense line will cause the front line to collapse.

But in fact, anyone with a basic military foundation knows that it is a terrible thing to be suddenly attacked on the battlefield.

This means that you are out of the protection of your comrades on both sides, and the direction of the enemy's attack has changed from one to three.

In the chaotic battlefield where the sword has no eyes, there is not enough space, even if you have outstanding combat effectiveness and skills, it is difficult to block all attacks, and what it means to be attacked from three sides is self-evident.

The reason why the city wall has a prominent urn city and the design of the horse face is based on the principle of increasing the attack surface, and the besieging army has to accept the siege on three or even four sides in the siege battle, which is one of the reasons why the besieging side is often more attrition than the defending side.

In the contact battle on the flat ground, once the gap is opened around the people in the front row of the battle formation, they are actually suddenly caught in a situation similar to being besieged.

Survival is human instinct, even if it is a veteran of a hundred battles, they often prohibit it, and in the face of the enemy's head-on knife and axe face does not change its color, and several knives in the body can still fight back desperately, but in several sides of the enemy, most veterans are also difficult to control the instinct of retreating and self-preservation.

Because of the situation of the former, an experienced veteran knew that he would be supported by his comrades on both sides and in the rear. But in the latter case, he instinctively has an "island" mentality that no one can support him, so he instinctively retreats.

No matter how stupid and harmful the backward behavior is from the bystander or hindsight, but on the battlefield, the sword has no eyes, life and death are often decided in a moment or between a thought, and seeing and hearing is just a romantic imagination on paper, and most people decide their behavior by instinct.

And instinct on the battlefield. It often comes from past experience. If past experience had taught him that the sudden advance after the battle line was torn apart would make him very likely to die, then most people would choose to retreat when they suddenly rushed forward, which was a matter of course.

There may be people who are still brave in this situation. But that's not bravery. That's called a madman.

At this time, the player line is also in this situation:

The comrades in command behind were shouting loudly, "Steady." stabilize the defensive line", but the fighters in the front row involuntarily pressed back, causing confusion on the front.

Shieldmen, attackers, and archers are mixed in a mess. There's not even room to turn around or raise a weapon, and from time to time, the player's own sword will hurt his own people.

"Ye, aren't you going to make a move? if this continues, their defense line will be completely finished!"

Ye Ningning's ears sounded the familiar and kind voice of the old mage, and he came down from the sky at some point, three meters away.

This is a relatively safe distance.

"Recruits always have to go through the battlefield to grow up, and this is an important battle for them, and I can't deprive them of the opportunity to take classes. ”

Ye Ningning didn't look back, hugged his chest, looked ahead, and was not shocked in his eyes.

"Sounds like you've had a lot of experience. ”

Ye Ningning could hear what the old mage meant, and smiled without saying a word.

"What a little monster! At your age, I was far less calm than you, and I was eager to rush up with my staff brandish!"

The old mage jokingly asked, "Are you really a warlock?" few warlocks are so calm. ”

Ye Ningning understood what the old mage meant.

Both spellcasters, the mage's power comes from knowledge, and the warlock comes from blood, which has always been synonymous with withdrawnness, irritability, and irritability.

This has to do with the source of the warlock's own power.

Warlocks with greater potential tend to be more affected and prone to distorted temperaments.

Mages are a profession known for their calmness and sanity.

However, this has little to do with the player, at least not with the base class - if it's after getting an advanced class or a special bloodline, it's hard to say.

Because some professions or bloodlines do require affinity, for example, people with deep and gloomy personalities are relatively easy to get shadow affinity, and flame affinity favors people with violent tempers.

In the long term, the personality trends of Warlocks and Mages among players tend to be this way.

However, in the previous life, players generally believed that this was because the warlock was an output turret, and often killed a large piece of the scene, making flesh and blood flying, while the mage was mostly the role of the field controller on the battlefield, and often dealt with spell books and various books, and subtly, of course, the personality will change.

This is off-topic, Ye Ningning did not answer the old mage's tentative words, and explained slowly:

"There are irascible mages among the mages, and of course there are calm warlocks among the warlocks, but I don't do it, not because I can sit back and watch them take casualties, but because they have prepared a backhand. ”

She had no intention of showing her ruthless nature in front of the old mage and other camp NPCs, and the old mage was surprised when she heard this, and looked ahead.

It just so happened that Gu Yifa also realized that the front was about to collapse, so he had to take out the back hand of preparation:

"Quick, Throw the Oil Pack, Mage Ready, Release the Scroll!"

He repeated it many times, and many members of the Anning team on the front line reacted and threw small sandbag-like objects at the feet of the rotten zombies.

The small bag smashed on the ground, and the contents inside immediately exploded, and there was no sound and light effect, but as soon as a rotten zombie stepped on it, it immediately stabbed and fell over, without exception!

……

【Lubricating oil pack】

Type: One-time throwing weapon

Holds: 5 oz

Effect: Attaches a large amount of oil to a plane with a radius of about 1 meter

Note: In rough surfaces or rainy weather, the oil effect will be significantly reduced...... Of course, like most oils, lubricating oil is flammable

……

The heavy rain washed over the ground, causing the oil to attach to the ground to quickly decrease, but it was enough for a rotten zombie with inflexible joints to get up for a while.

The mages in the rear activated scrolls or chanted spells, quickly unleashing a wave of spells, lightning and flames and frost to kill the zombies in front, and the leaders of each team were able to take advantage of the situation to regroup their teams, and the player's defense line was temporarily stabilized.

"This ...... At least six or seven hundred gold coins were thrown out this time!" the old mage shrewdly estimated the price of the oil packet.

He didn't count the scrolls, because the player can produce his own, and if he counts, he can't beat one or two thousand.

"It's better to pay for tuition with gold coins than with life, isn't it?" Ye Ningning said.

"Well, you're right, dear. The old mage shrugged.

The mages are all spenders, they admire and are good at using money to kill enemies, and the old mage is no exception.

Eat a trench, grow a wisdom.

After the test of death explosion, Gu Yifa found a way to deal with these rotten zombies, which was to concentrate on attacking the front row, sending fast wanderers and rangers and other professions to lure away the zombies in the back row and slow them down to enter the palace defense line.

Tactical changes, coupled with the player's deliberate precautions, have greatly reduced the chance for the Rotten Zombies to explode themselves.

Look at the battle here when the battle is about to be decided, but there is a chaotic shouting from the west side of the camp:

"-Mom, there's a ghost !!"
