Chapter 19, Chapter 20: The Nest of the Eyeliers

(PS: It's still two more.,Sorted out the manuscript behind today.,You can resume the update tomorrow.") )

In the next two days, every day Hao used all his energy to analyze the magic of the high-level magic missile for Ey, and the result was that he really analyzed and optimized the magic in two days, so that the second-order Ai could also recite the spell and release it within ten seconds, no magic array, no auxiliary materials, and even no need for other magicians to help share the load, it can be used alone, the load is almost only the first-order magic, and the magic power consumed is just more than the second-order magic, just reaching the initial point of the third-order magic, after Ai uses this magic, there is still a second-order magic leftover, or use three first-order magic, which is enough for her to protect herself from losing her combat effectiveness after using this magic.

At the same time, Hao's optimization this time is deeper, he tried to use some of the runes he had analyzed before to reorganize this magic formula, and the maximum limit increased the power of this magic, for two days, he was asleep almost most of the time, and the result was that the power of this third-order magic has been exaggeratedly increased, and forty-two high-level magic missiles can be released at one time, which is enough to kill high-level professionals or high-level magic beasts unexpectedly!

In addition to this, Hao also made many other preparations, such as in the past two days, he ordered the non-commissioned officer to collect the feces and urine of the clansmen, and then collected the charcoal after the fire, plus along the way, he ordered the clansmen to collect a little sulfur from time to time, and made a few explosive packs with this soil method.

The power of this explosive pack is actually not very large, and it is almost impossible to use it to blow up the demonic beast, and the purpose of Hao's making these explosive packs is not to attack directly.

Two days later, Hao only slept for an afternoon, even so, he still felt that his head was swollen, and his whole body was weak, so he wanted to lie down and wake up naturally, but he still got up and began to explain various matters in the next few days, which was nothing more than to stabilize the line of defense, detect the movements of the surroundings at any time, and then arrange food and accommodation regularly and quantitatively every day, etc., these things he explained to several elves and several non-commissioned officers.

Hao selected nineteen followers, including him, a total of twenty people to go to the Jair's lair, this number is already the limit of rapid action and stealth action, Hao, Ey, Anyang, and another six elves, and eleven human non-commissioned officers, this is all the personnel selected by Hao, these personnel all have wisdom, not ignorant clansmen who can only understand orders, and the remaining few elves and non-commissioned officers need to manage all the human clansmen here.

Twenty people, each holding an elven military crossbow, carrying a spear, five days of dry food, and a rudimentary explosive bag made by Hao, there are only two transcendents in the team, the second-order magician Ai Yi and the first-order warrior An Yang, and the rest are all mortals, and the number of them all adds up to only twenty people, such a number of adventurers, let alone attacking a nest of Jairus, is estimated to be completely wiped out if they encounter a team of Jairus in the wild.

The difference in strength is really too great.

In fact, if there was another way, it would be impossible for Hao to run to a nest with such a team, which was really just a meaningless death under the ninety percent or even more likelihood.

A regular Jairus race, with at least one third-order Jairus as the patriarch, or leader, and then about forty Jairus as members, and the previous group of Jairus they fought against, the number is twelve, Hao assumes that this is a standard Jairus group, a total of forty members, of which thirty to thirty-five adult Jairus, and the rest are juvenile Jairus, then now there should be twenty adult Jairways in this nest with combat effectiveness, and at least one of them is a third-order Jairus!!

With such combat power, if there is no transcendent confrontation, then at least a thousand regular elven troops, equipped with heavy military crossbows, and even heavy weapons such as elven bed crossbows, and then set up positions, and a thousand elven soldiers also need high morale and fight to the death, so that they can all be annihilated.

The reason why the clansmen led by Hao before were able to completely annihilate the twelve Jairs was actually thanks to Ai Yi, a second-order magician, her field control magic was almost the most important weight for victory or defeat, of course, after Anyang's attack also added to the victory, but even so, the casualties were extremely heavy.

Twenty people were going to attack the lair, no matter how you look at it, it looks like sending you to death......

“...... It's hard, but we're not going to die. ”

That night, among the nineteen selected elves and clansmen, Hao looked at the people around him: "First of all, the first one is that we are unexpected, Jaireyes are not intelligent creatures, although they are very smart, but this intelligence is based on beasts and monsters, so they would never have thought that we would use such a small number of people to raid their lair, if this is used in the war against intelligent creatures, it is a combination of surprise soldiers and suddenness, once successful, the comparison between combat power and quantity is not so strict." ”

"Secondly, the second one, in the nest of this Jairus group, although there are still a lot of Jairus in existence, and the combat power has an overwhelming advantage over us, but the current weather and floods are our biggest advantages, this flood has led to the death of most of the wild animals in this area, and a small number of wild animals may be able to hide in the hills and mountains, but there are not many of them, and the habitat is not in place, maybe after the flood, the surrounding wildlife can migrate over to fill the animal vacancy here, but at least at this time, the Jairus Demon Beast group is short of food, otherwise it is impossible to send the adult combat force in the group to run so far to prey, and the lack of food will also lack combat power and vitality, and it is unlikely that we will be discovered before the attack. ”

"Synthesizing the second one, so we have the advantage of the third one, that is, after confirming the situation of the nest of the Jairus Demon Beast, we can weaken or even completely destroy the Jairus Lair by means of fire attack, flooding, smoke, or rock traps, artificially created mudslides, etc., which depends on the specific location of the nest and the specific situation we are facing. ”

Hao said extremely seriously, and these elves and human tribesmen also listened carefully, to be honest, if it weren't for the fact that since leaving the refugee camp, Hao's authority has become increasingly important these days, plus he and the elves have signed a master-servant contract, it is impossible for these elves to participate in this kind of mission that is almost sent to death, and those human tribesmen, they are all rare people in the human race who have wisdom, and they are also convinced by Hao, at this time, what Hao said is related to the life and death of them and the rest of the tribe, how can they not listen to it?

And Hao's words also made everyone a little excited, so they heard Hao continue: "But there are some things I need to say in front first, this operation, not only the lives of our twenty people, but also the lives of hundreds of people here, if it is successful, then we can all live, if we fail, we will all die here, so this attack, I ask for absolute order execution, even if it is an order for you to die on the spot, you must also execute, if you do not execute, it will be our smooth victory, and I will kill you to march to the law!"

Hearing this, everyone's hearts were awe-inspiring, the previous matter of Hao killing Yinkong on the spot seemed to be still in front of him, no one doubted Hao's determination to say this, if he didn't obey the order on this trip, Hao would probably really take them to military law.

After Hao said this, he paused slightly, and continued: " Of course, I definitely can't use you as bait, to put it mildly, our people here are the most elite and important people in this team, such as Gray, you are proficient in arithmetic and finance, Eri, you are proficient in engineering and coordination, Noldor, you are from a diplomatic background, and my people, you are non-commissioned officers, you are the bones that support this team, it can be said that everyone here is the elite of this team, except for the current catastrophe, we will have to work together in the future I don't know how long, I absolutely cannot use you as bait, this mission, everything is aimed at surviving this catastrophe!”

Hao didn't know if these words were effective, whether they could reduce everyone's fear of him, the impact of killing the silver sky before might continue, and it might make people's hearts change, he didn't know what would happen, that is, he could analyze the runes of the origin of heaven and earth, but he couldn't parse people's hearts, and people's hearts were the most difficult things in this world to touch.

Everyone was asleep that night, Hao didn't stay up all night to do anything else, he let go of his spirits, and slept soundly for at least ten hours in a meditation-like self-hypnosis method he learned from books, and didn't wake up until dawn the next day, and then counted the equipment again, checked the weapons and supplies again, everyone had a full meal, and then boarded the self-built boat under the leadership of Hao.

In the three days before departure, Hao Ke not only spent his time analyzing magic, although analyzing third-order magic was also a top priority, but if they wanted to raid the Jairus tribe, they must first find Jairus's lair, and when Hao had excess spirit in the past three days, he sketched a topographical map of the vicinity on the dirt floor.

Hao has an excellent memory since he was a child, and he has a special ability to manifest his memory area in his consciousness, similar to a room, or an empty flat field, or a huge bookshelf, and then manage his memory in it, even if he is just a glimpse, he can also remember what he saw deeply, and then recall it again when needed.

In the past three days, Hao recalled all the geographical terrain he had seen in the vicinity since he came to this area, from the huge mountains in the distance, to the hills on one side of the plain, to the path between the hills, plus the general terrain he saw when he climbed high and looked into the distance, all of which echoed in Hao's mind.

Through calculation, analysis, plus the direction of the previous attack of the Jianhua Warcraft herd, as well as the direction from which he first heard the voice of the Jianhui Warcraft herd, and then referring to the Warcraft information books he had read, the approximate predation range of the Jianhua Warcraft, the shortage of food after this flood, and the time that these Jianwei Warcraft groups could stick to their actions after a full meal, etc., and then calculated a specific location, and the Jairus's nest has a high probability of being near that location.

In fact, Ay and several of the elves who followed him also asked Hao about finding Jairus's lair, and Hao didn't hide it, he drew a rough map of his memory, and then informed everyone of the results of his analysis, and finally came up with the approximate location of the lair, and when he finished speaking, everyone present looked at him with an expression of looking at a madman or a genius, and no one said a word for a long time.

According to Hao's calculations, they need to travel for about two and a half days, during which they have to travel all the way except for sleeping for eight hours a day, even at night, so that they can find that something is wrong in the nest and go to the nest, so as to achieve the effect of a surprise attack.

So their time is actually very tight, fortunately this way to sail by boat, the physical and mental consumption is much less than walking, in order to hurry, Hao also assigned everyone into three shifts, each time six to seven people rowing, the rest of the people seize the time to rest or sleep, eat some dry food when hungry, and drink some cold boiled water carried by the pouch of the eye when thirsty.

In this way, except for a few personal hours, almost all of them survived the ship for about two days, and in the early morning of the third day, Hao suddenly ordered the boat to stop, and leaned against a small hill, and then he began to circle the small hill near the flood, and in less than half an hour, Hao returned to the boat, and he ordered the ship to continue sailing, and then continued the search on the nearest other small hill.

In this way, Hao has been searching from the early hours of the morning to when the sun is about to rise, when the ship goes to a large steep hill, Hao only searched for a few minutes, he immediately changed his face, quickly returned to the ship landing, and led everyone to quickly sail away from the hill, at the same time on this boat, Hao licked his fingers, stood on the bow of the boat and carefully compared the wind direction, and then led everyone to the downwind closest to the hill to land, for the sake of caution, Hao was still on this shore to search carefully, half an hour later, he breathed a sigh of relief, and led everyone to drag the boat to the shore, and then hid in a jungle on a hill with everyone。

After arriving here, Hao was completely relieved, before he searched for footprints on the banks of various hills, Jairus's body is larger, his body is heavier, this area is almost surrounded by floods, even if it is a hill, close to the flood is also soaked soft, Jairus will sink footprints when he steps on it, what Hao is searching for is Jairus's footprints, before coming here, he memorized the shape of the footprints of the twelve Jairus, size, etc., and then when he was in the previous hill, he found at least eight different Jairus' footprints, and one of them had a particularly large footprint, about half larger than the largest of the twelve, the second-order Jairus。

Although it was not yet possible to confirm that it was the nest of Jairus, the probability that it was the nest was extremely high, and Hao did not dare to take any risks, he would rather be more cautious.

After coming to the jungle, Hao immediately took Ai to the edge of the jungle, he lay on the canopy of a tree, and stuffed himself with all kinds of weeds, so he asked Ai to perform an eagle eye spell for him, and suddenly, the scenery several kilometers away seemed to be close in front of him.

Hao carefully observed everything on that hill, lying there motionless, if he hadn't known in advance that he was on this tree, he might not have been able to find it if he looked closely.

Ay waited for Hao for almost an hour, and then she lay down under the tree boredly, dozing off from time to time, but Hao kept his full attention, and even some insects and ants climbed on him, he was motionless, for fear of revealing a little flaw.

Then after more than two hours, Hao's eyes shrank, and he saw several small Jairus running from the corner of the hill, they were playing with each other, and from time to time they provoked and bited, after these few Little Jairus appeared, a few minutes later, several more mature Jairus appeared, but these mature Jairus were all smaller, smaller than the twelve Jairus who attacked their team.

This is the female Jairus, in the Jairus herd, the female Jairus generally does not participate in the war, and will not participate in the hunt, they will concentrate on raising and teaching the young Jairus, the hunting and fighting in the Jairus herd are usually males, and the female Jairus is usually in the nest, and with the appearance of the small Jairus and the female Jairus, Hao is almost sure that this is the nest of the Jairus.

(Okay, the nest has been found, and it shouldn't have been found, otherwise we have been attacked now, and what we need now is the specific location of these Jairus' nests, as well as information about the terrain near the nest, information about the rock formations of the mountain, and detailed information about this Jairus group!)

Hao was sure in his heart, and then he focused his attention again, it was an unparalleled concentration, just like when he was on the battlefield, on the battlefield against the twelve Jairs, Hao entered a peculiar state at that time, in that state, he could see many things that were impossible to see in ordinary times, such as the specific number of speed, such as the physical state of Jairus, such as whether the strength was useful after stabbing out, and so on.

Hao recalled that state afterwards, it was definitely not an illusion, it was not an illusion that appeared after a high concentration of attention, it was a strange state that he could not understand at all, nor could he imagine, Hao suspected, it might also be some special ability of the Arcanist, something that the Venerable had taught him.

At this time, Hao tried to enter that state again, he tried to clear all the distractions in his consciousness, tried to concentrate his attention highly, and looked at the female and small ones with full attention, and gradually, there was a strange change in front of his eyes.

What Hao didn't notice was that a small piece of glass appeared above his head, and as this glass color appeared, countless pieces of information poured into his brain.

The wind speed, the proportion of the air, the height and size of the hills, the age, strength, and rank of these females, the age, strength, and rank of the little ones, the rock nodes inside the hills, where are they more fragile, and even the sight in his eyes began to change, the hills began to become translucent, he looked through the rock formations, and saw the remaining dozen or so Jairus lying or standing in a cave, one of them was the most huge, the strength was the third order, the age was in the prime of life, and the specific strength was data-based, even stronger than a hundred of them combined......

Countless information gathered in Hao's brain, just a few minutes of observation, made him tremble slightly up and down, cold sweat kept rising, his eyes were blue and white blurry, Hao still looked at the hills in the distance, and then unconsciously, he fell from the tree, at this time a figure rushed straight over, holding Hao in his arms.

Hao couldn't see everything around him clearly at this time, he only had time to say wait for me to wake up and find a way, and then he fainted directly.

And under this tree, Anyang, who hugged Hao, and Aiyi, who was startled, looked at each other, and they were speechless for a while.
