Chapter 267: Divergence

"What's wrong?"

Everyone was anxious to know, and they asked almost at the same time.

"The number of krakens this time is probably more than we expected, and the key is that the strength is very strong. As far as this insect demon knew, there were at least six great demons of the third rank or higher leading their respective clans, gathering on an island four hundred miles away. ”

"Standby?" Qi Hufei was taken aback, "Whose life are you waiting for?" ”

"That's exactly the problem." Gan Pengfei said, "This nematode has too low cultivation and limited IQ, and it doesn't know much." But what can keep six big demons above the third rank on standby here is probably not an ordinary sea monster. ”

"Could it be more powerful than the unicorn whale you killed back then?" Zuo Yiming said.

"The battle I fought back then was also extremely dangerous, and if it weren't for luck on my side, I wouldn't be sitting here today."

Gan Pengfei thought of the past, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional, and frowned at the same time.

"And the unicorn whale has always been a loner, but today there are at least two or three hundred sea monsters gathered on this sea, and there are six of them that have reached the third grade or above."

"I'm afraid it's more than six." Zuo Yiming said, "According to our recent observations, there are more than 10 islands where krakens gather on the islands in the sea area between 400 and 600 miles from the bay.

According to past experience, there is a population gathered on each island, and each population has a leader, so I guess that there are at least ten leading monsters whose strength has reached more than three grades. ”

Everyone sighed.

If this speculation is true, then this battle is really not going to be fought.

According to the most conservative estimates, the ten monsters are all third-grade, not fourth-grade, plus the five-rank or maybe sixth-grade big demon behind them, and the two or three hundred small demons below, this is enough to form an army.

In comparison, only thirty-six people came.

Among these thirty-six people, only Gan Pengfei has a fourth-grade product, and Liu Yu, Wen Liang, and Qi Hufei have three third-grade products.

The rest are below the third grade.

Even if Zuo Yiming and Xu Lai are added, there is only one more third grade and one second grade.

Inferior to the enemy, both in quantity and in quality.

In contrast, their only advantage is probably that they have a higher IQ and can use formations.

Gan Pengfei looked around and asked, "This battle is dangerous and unpredictable, what do you think?" ”

Wen Liang said: "Ganji, should we report the situation to the division and ask for more people to come." ”

Gan Pengfei nodded and said: "I will report to Director Qin, but the manpower in the department is already tight, we have transferred thirty-six masters this time, Director Qin is already stretched, it is unlikely that the division will transfer people, the only way is to ask for help from the Nalan City City God Division and the Immortal Shield Bureau." ”

Qi Feifei thought it was a good idea.

If the people from the Nalan City City God's Division and the Immortal Shield Bureau came over, the situation would become more complicated, and although it was difficult to control, it would be easier to take advantage of it.

Moreover, the combined strength of the City God Division and the Immortal Shield Bureau in the two places, if it can't stop the Kraken from advancing eastward, it is really a bit too much to say.

If anyone still has the idea of luring the Kraken to Pansi Ridge, Qi Feifei can naturally use the wonderful relationship between the three parties to solve the crisis.

Liu Yu suddenly objected: "Ganji, when we arrived here, we didn't fight a battle, and we didn't fire a shot, so we reported to the division for help, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right?" ”

Gan Pengfei was also thinking about this problem, so he asked, "Well, what are your ideas?" ”

Liu Yu said: "In my opinion, it is better to start first." Tonight, I attacked the island and caught it off guard. ”

"Night raid?" Wen Liang rolled his eyes, "It's easy to say, this is the sea!" ”

Liu Yu said: "Since the Kraken is assembled on the sea, no matter whose life it is waiting for, it is still waiting, and it is still in a state of leaderlessness.

These islands are widely distributed and far apart from each other, and the Krakens are separate groups and do not have a high IQ. Before the big demons who kept them on standby appeared, they were just a plate of loose sand.

This is the best time to do it, if we wait for the big demons to arrive and twist them into a force, then we will lose the opportunity! ”

Qi Hufei also thought that a night attack was a good plan at first, but his intuition told him that there was a problem here.

And he and Wen Liang are allies, since Wen Liang is against it, he always has to make a statement.

He said: "The art of war, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, will not be defeated in a hundred battles." At present, we have not yet fully understood who the enemy is, and the enemy's movements are not clear. Moreover, the sea is the home of the Kraken, and it may not be a good idea for us to cross the sea area for four hundred miles and launch a night battle. ”

Liu Yu's face sank and said, "Boy, this is a war!" Won a few fights with some tricks, and thought you knew everything? Talking about the art of war! Do you know what the art of war is? ”

Qi Hufei didn't refute, but glanced at Wen Liang and said, "Ganji, I don't think it's as good as what Captain Wen said, ask for help from the division first, and when the reinforcements arrive, we will act together." ”

Wen Liang understood from Qi Hufei's eyes, and echoed: "That is, launching a night attack now, not to mention the risk, in case of loss of personnel, we don't even have enough manpower to set up a Tiangang array, when the tide comes, the demons will attack in a big way, what will we do to stop it?" ”

Liu Yu said: "We will launch a night attack tonight, and if we can win, we will win, and if we can't, we will retreat." If you win, take advantage of the victory and chase after it, and take out this group of krakens in one go, at least to disperse their forces. If we can't, we'll go back and report back to the division, and we'll have a reason to ask for reinforcements. ”

Gan Pengfei saw that several captains under him were expressing their opinions and not giving in to each other, so he asked Zuo Yiming: "Old Zuo, what do you think?" ”

Zuo Yiming said: "I am only responsible for patrolling the sea, and it is up to you to decide how to fight." You're the commander in chief, and you can just say what you need me to do. ”

Gan Pengfei thought for a while, made up his mind, and said, "In this way, tonight, let's play tentatively first." Wen Liang, now take people to reconnoiter in the sea four hundred miles away, be sure to find out the approximate population of the kraken and the specific location of the island, but don't alarm them. You are given two hours of your time. Others can rest on the spot, or they can go to the neighborhood to familiarize themselves with the environment, and after two hours we meet here to determine the target and plan of attack. ”

Gan Pengfei made a decision, and Qi Hufei and Wen Liang were not good at objecting.

Qi Hufei said to Fan Wuyi and Zhang Qiyue: "I estimate that Gan will divide into a team to make a tentative attack in a while, and the three of us must be together, and we must not be separated." ”

Zhang Qiyue is now a member of the fourth team, of course there is no opinion.

Fan Wuyi nodded and said, "Okay, follow you, I'm relieved." ”

Qi Hufei asked again: "Old Fan, have you ever been to Lingxi Town before?" ”

Fan Wuyi shook his head and said, "I haven't been here, but I've heard my master mention it." ”

"Oh? What did your master say? ”

Qi Feifei remembered that Fan Wuyi's master was an old demon from Black Mountain, and he was curious about this name.

"My master said that there used to be dragons in Lingxi Town."

Qi Hufei smiled, knowing that what the old demon of the Black Mountain said would never be so simple, but Fan Wuyi didn't remember that much.

"Qiyue, I heard that there is a boundary monument here, do you know where it is?"

"You mean the remnant of the ancient boundary between sea and land? I know, it's just southwest of town. ”
