Chapter 1908: Alchemy Puppet
When Hermione saw Sarah's alchemy puppet fighting a living corpse for the first time this morning, she felt nothing but shock.
In terms of numbers alone, although Sarah doesn't seem to need even the most basic sleep, and spends almost all day and night making dolls, it still can't compare to the army of living corpses that Helbo has changed from most of the United Kingdom.
And if it comes to individual strength, most of Sarah's alchemy dolls are actually stronger than those ordinary living corpses that have not evolved. Only a few of the dolls she crafted had the combat power of an individual that had evolved from a living corpse.
However, the biggest advantage of her alchemy dolls is that they not only have the ability to recover from injuries more efficiently than living corpses, but also have the ability to cooperate with each other far beyond living corpses.
The latter advantage is actually not obvious in normal times, but once Sarah personally comes forward to command, they are much more organized compared to the chaotic attack mode of the living corpse group.
So, Sarah proved one thing with facts:
In the case that you can ignore the loss, even if the number is slightly inferior and the strength is slightly insufficient, as long as there is a better tactical strategy, you can ensure local undefeat.
Throughout the morning, even though Sarah didn't stop Hermione from coming out to intervene in the fight, Hermione found that she didn't seem to have much room to "help" at all.
"Miss Granger," Sarah said calmly, standing on a tower in the middle of the Old Town, looking into the foggy distance, "if you have to get involved, go northeast!" That's where the hordes of living corpses are most aggressive, and you can help me take some of the pressure off the enemy in your own way. ”
Hermione had been out for two laps before, but she was back here. And Sarah has hundreds of years of wisdom in the end, probably because she is a little sullen, and immediately realized her thoughts.
But to be honest, after Sarah mentioned this, Hermione's mood was even more subtle. Fortunately, she was not the kind of person who was pretentious, and after a slight embarrassment, she quickly nodded.
"Okay, I'll ...... I'll give it a try. ”
Hermione answered, then glanced in the direction Sarah was staring in the distance. It's a pity that Sarah can clearly "see" the distant scene through her alchemy doll, but she can't do it.
After still seeing only a gray mist, she sighed, then stepped onto her broomstick and flew straight in the direction where the battle was most intense.
……
"Boom!"
The battle on the periphery continued, and groups of living corpses poured in from the direction of London.
Although they only have a general purpose in mind, and there are even some chaos that hinders each other from time to time when they act, this huge base alone is enough to make everyone feel terrified.
Fortunately, alchemy dolls are not afraid, after all, even Sarah, who is one of the pinnacle masterpieces in the history of alchemy, has spent hundreds of years to finally have such an extremely extravagant thing as "emotional emotions"!
"Bang!"
In the farther aft, a puppet was hit in succession - some had their arms severed by magic blades, some had their legs melted by the hot flames, and some had been frozen to the ground.
Although their bodies also have good resistance to demons, they can still get hurt if they are hit by magic too many times.
Fortunately, one of the great features of alchemy is the efficient repair ability derived from the refining of matter. With the help of the material materials that are readily available, they can easily regain their combat ability, and in the blink of an eye, they are enough to continue on the battlefield.
Hermione had seen it before—the damaged dolls often only had to pause in place for a few seconds, pick up the broken arm and leg and press it into the broken leg, and use the dirt or masonry beneath them to repair themselves.
Later, according to Sarah herself, the effect of this temporary refining is actually flawed, at least the physical strength of the hastily repaired puppet will definitely be reduced.
However, compared to the efficiency of the resurrection of those living corpses, can this "defect" still be considered a "defect"?
Now that Hermione was back near the northeastern wall, she felt as if she was a little redundant after all as she watched the large number of dolls survive the wave of corpses in a gap and rotate through constant rotation.
"No," she suddenly realized after looking at it for a while, "she asked me to come here at this time, as if she still had her reasons, and it wasn't just a perfunctory way to take care of my emotions at will." ”
It can be seen that the biggest loss to Sarah's alchemy puppet in the battle is actually the most inconspicuous cannibalizing attack.
A large number of ordinary living corpses use beast-like brutal attacks, constantly destroying the puppets in front of them from a physical level. Even if they are not very effective at shattering the puppet's body, the numerical superiority is often shown to be most effective in this unpretentious attack.
The puppet that has been completely torn apart can't repair itself anymore, because even the refining formation buried in the body has been damaged.
Realizing this, Hermione pulled out several rune cards and waved them in a flash, placing them exactly at the gap in the wall.
"Click—"
As the rules of gravity kick in, the fractured walls are also affected, and the gap becomes larger. However, with Hermione's gravity trap, those dolls who were almost using their bodies to resist the attack suddenly had a chance to breathe.
After seeing that the puppets that could only keep defending were gradually starting to be able to fight back outward, Hermione looked ahead and nodded secretly.
The battle continues, and it is not known when this offensive will gradually subside...... Not to mention, there are certainly more and more frequent attacks waiting for them in the future.
Thinking so, Hermione couldn't help but glance up, looking at the looming flying living corpses in the sky, and couldn't help but shake her head - in fact, the biggest reason why this Winchester ancient city was able to hold on here was not Sarah's alchemy puppet, but the giant magical barrier that had been there to defend a large number of flying living corpses since I don't know when.
I remember Sarah saying that it had existed long before she came here, and although she hadn't asked, it must have been ...... It must have been left by Maca, right?
Hermione was thinking, but suddenly, there was a commotion in the distance.
