Chapter 311: Planning and Compensation
The conflict at the entrance to the inner courtyard had barely begun, and it was over as quickly as it had come about.
At that moment, the Templar only saw a strange silver construct 'burrow' out of his colleague's body, and through an invisible surface of water, where the space rippled, and his colleague's face cracked like a mirror, shattering, and vanishing like ice and snow.
Though he retreated fast enough, he struck a sword in the chest, a blade like silver fangs that bit through his robe and the thick ring armor underneath, and diagonally through his collarbone, leaving a piercing wound near his right shoulder.
"It's an illusion."
The Templar rolled backwards through his wound and shouted, "It's the enemy, stop them!" ”
The guards woke up like a dream, and they raised their long knives and spears one after another, and stabbed at the angel in front of them, but the whiteboard magic guide in their hands could not pierce the armor of the angel, and only clanged and slashed on the surface, which had no effect except for the splashing of sparks. And the templar rolled backwards, without the slightest nostalgia, watching the guards move forward, but he retreated very decisively.
As soon as he came into contact with the strange swordsman build, he realized that he could win either of the two builds, but it was hard to say how the Combat Craftsman was controlling them behind them, let alone being injured himself in the first place.
With an instinctive vigilance, he sensed his opponent's intentions almost instantly, and made the right judgment - after taking two or three steps back, he turned around and ran without looking back in the direction of the gate at the other end of the inner court.
It's just that in this way, it hurts the guards who haven't reacted yet.
These guards who swarmed up—compared to the energy angels who were constructed as seventeenth-level allomorphic swordsmen, it is an exaggeration to say that their various attributes were only slightly stronger than those of unarmed ordinary people—in fact, their attacks were slow even in Fang Yuan's eyes, and the next moment they saw two silver swordsmen pass through the crowd like butterflies wearing flowers, and the swords in these people's hands clanged to the ground.
The soldiers were forced to retreat and make a way out of it.
Fang Yu appeared outside the gate at this moment, raised his right hand, and spread his five fingers in this direction: a blue light door opened above the inner court, and the huge constructed knight fell from mid-air, standing on the ground like a giant, and the dust and shock wave raised only shook the surrounding guards dizzy.
Before they could even see what was happening, they retreated in horror, revealing a blank space in the inner courtyard like a receding tide.
Luo Hao and his party, who were killing from inside the gate with the shield of Lu Fu, couldn't help but be shocked when they saw this scene-if they changed to any other profession, they might not give people such a feeling. But an alchemist and his huge structure stood in the crowd, surrounded by guards scattered in terror, and there was a sense of static composition, which gave rise to the feeling that the dragon knight was invincible - the battle craftsman was called a pseudo-dragon knight, on the one hand, it was really not an exaggerated rhetoric.
Even Luo Hao thinks so, not to mention the people of Lu Fu's Shield, I don't know how many people saw this scene, and there was an idea in their hearts that I could also engage in an alchemist rank to be a pawn? Of course, such thoughts were fleeting, and the noise of the battlefield almost immediately pulled everyone back to reality.
As soon as the huge knight's structure hit the ground, it freed the two power angels, and it let out a low roar from within, and raised its spear with a 'buzz' and threw it in the direction of the templar's escape.
It seemed like a long time to the people of Lufo's Shield, but it was just a matter of breathing, and the spear was flying out of the metal giant's hand, striking the pillar of the gate at the other end of the inner court. The knight who was guarding the temple had just approached the gate when he saw the stone pillar collapse in front of him, and with the weight of the gate, it carried a stone weighing nearly a ton, and fell to the ground with a bang.
He also braked sharply and rolled backwards to avoid being buried by a stone.
But as soon as he stopped, the two silver swordsmen next to the Orphen Twins flickered one in front of the other, one behind the other—like elongated meteors, and the long sword light streaked across the entire courtyard of the inner courtyard and came to him. The Templar was so shocked that he could only roll backwards and raise his sword to stop him.
When there was a metal clash of metal, sparks flew everywhere.
The tingling sensation in his right shoulder made him can't help but step back.
But this retreat, leaning against the half-broken stone pillar behind him, can angel slash with a horizontal sword, this is the last sight the templar sees.
However, Fang Yu did not choose to kill, and at the last moment, he asked the Angel to turn the blade of the sword, and used the spine of the sword to give the other party a blow, and knocked him unconscious. Although the relationship between the two sides is hostile, and he has no woman's kindness, he still tries to avoid killing people in the case of absolute superiority.
This was mainly due to the fact that he had not yet confirmed whether the relationship between himself and the Mystic was due to a misunderstanding, and that Delan had told him that the other party was also loyal to the Penelope royal family, or if it had some influence on him.
As soon as the Templars fell to the ground, the guards in the inner court naturally disarmed.
If they might have had some resistance before, but seeing the leader of their side actually take the lead in fleeing, their morale naturally plummeted - and even out of a sense of revenge, they simply dropped their weapons one after another. There are only a few diehards, but Luo Hao can deal with these people.
Fang Yu actually understood that this templar did not really escape, but made the most effective judgment, knowing that he was invincible, of course, his first choice was to bring the news out here. After all, at present, the dust storm is raging, communication is interrupted, and the method of transmitting information is almost the most primitive means.
However, he knew it in his heart, but naturally he would not say it.
This battle still inevitably caused some casualties, but there was no way to do it, Fang Yu asked Luo Hao to watch these people, let them tie themselves up with ropes, and reassure them that their group was about to leave, and it would not do anything to them.
This trick really worked, and the soldiers who surrendered seemed to have lost their resistance and did what they said.
"It's better to be faster." Fang Yu instructed Luo Hao and Wu Xiaopang.
"The resurrected people will be resurrected in fifteen minutes at the earliest, and even without them, it is impossible for the sound that came out before to go completely unnoticed. We don't have much time left and we have to get out of this place right away. ”
Both nodded.
Fang Ou went to retrieve the mirror image that he had left outside the hall first.
The illusion was naturally created using his mirror person, and his so-called bold plan was actually just to use these people's armor to disguise themselves as the other party after attacking the first team, and then raid the entrance to the inner court.
He also used the Mirror Viewer to record the image of the leading Templar, and the sound crystal among the clockwork goblins to record the other party's voice, which created the illusion at the beginning, and it really came in handy, successfully deceiving the other party's vigilance.
As for the original owner of this mirror image, he is now being imprisoned in the dungeon with the other guards, tasting the treatment they have 'enjoyed' before.
The reason why Fang Yu actually came up with this plan temporarily was because of the current sandstorm.
The communication problems caused by the sandstorm caused him a lot of trouble, but fortunately, this trouble was relative, and the trouble they encountered, the mystic warlock naturally did not discount it at all. Because they can't communicate with each other in the sandstorm weather, they are given the opportunity to hit the time difference, otherwise they will get the news as soon as they attack each other's teams entering the outer area.
No matter what he had, he couldn't carry it out.
The people of Lu Fu's shield quickly restrained every guard in the inner court, and then Fang Yu did what he said, and did not embarrass these people, only left them where they were. In fact, the reason why he wasted time restraining these people was just so that they would not follow from behind, he needed to buy time, and he couldn't let the other party know exactly where he was attacking.
This sandstorm is just a cover for him on the one hand, and on the other hand, he is moving fast enough to make the information that the other party has enough lag.
Because the core of this tactic is to move quickly and move ahead of the enemy step by step when both sides lose control of battlefield information.
This is not his original creation, there are many classic examples of similar tactics - they are all from the classic tactics of the Crown of the Silver Forest, from the Rose Crusader, from the Elite and other well-known guilds, and of course, 'R' and his own refinement.
But as for whether it can work, in fact, Fang Yu has no bottom in his heart, others have succeeded, but what about their own?
It's not easy to say.
As 'R' says, there is always an element of chance in any plan.
The only thing he can do is to try to perfect every detail and not let his plan make a human mistake.
Although the gate collapsed under the attack of the Orphen Twins, the road was not sealed—and it was unlikely to be sealed, after all, the building did not collapse entirely, but the load-bearing structure on one side of it leaned. The crowd quickly passed through the half-collapsed door, through the hall, and towards the back.
As Fang Yu expected, the other party may have sensed that the outer area had lost contact, so he temporarily dispatched troops to fence this direction. However, the encirclement is limited to the outer layer, or some key areas, and once it is broken, the defense force behind it will obviously become thinner again.
Probably because the other party may not have expected it, instead of breaking through to the outside, they went deep into the central area of the castle. Moreover, this direction is not the direction in which Luo Yu and the others are imprisoned, Fang Yu can imagine that there should be a lot of troops gathered over there.
But the good thing is that his plan is to bypass these people.
After a few sporadic battles, they quickly approached the area where the warehouse was located.
Almost all of these battles broke out between them and the patrolling guards, but in fact, if Fang Plover released 'Wasp-I', some battles may not have been avoided. But he didn't do that, first, because he didn't need it, second, to save time, and third, he had been silently calculating the news that the other party should get at the moment.
After these battles, the other party should be able to know in which direction he and these people from the Shield of Lufu are heading.
Fang Yu pinched the watch and counted the time - of course, it was Luo Hao's pocket watch, his own had already been dismantled in prison and had not been installed for the time being. At this moment, another quarter of an hour has passed since the previous breakout battle, no matter how slow the opponent reacts, he should also know the news, the other side may be drawing troops and re-weaving an encirclement network in this direction.
Then they don't keep shrinking the encirclement until they trap themselves to death.
In the absence of knowing the exact location of the opponent, this is undoubtedly the most effective approach.
But the premise is that the encirclement network woven by the other side is based on correct intelligence.
Because he had probed this side once before, because he knew from the beginning that there were patrolling guards in these places, and there were guards there. He deliberately arranged the order of the previous skirmishes, giving the other side an 'illusion' of what direction their group was heading.
But as for whether this is the case.
Then only God knows.
Fang Yu pushed open the door of the warehouse with a 'bang', this time he didn't have to bother the little lady Fang Nini, he could only slash the lock with a sword forward. After the chains hit the ground, the door opened, and the first thing Fang Yu saw was not their 'equipment', but the boxes placed in the corner of the warehouse.
Although he knew that it was unlikely that these things would be transferred, he breathed a sigh of relief to see that they were still in that place safe and sound.
Got rich.
Although he knew that he had not escaped from the danger and might fall into the siege again at any time, seeing this scene, Fang Yu couldn't help but feel a little excited in his heart - this box of gold coins was nearly one million Lissels, which was still only counting gold coins, not the value of other jewelry.
If they can take these seven or eight boxes, isn't that close to 10 million assets?
Tens of millions of assets may not seem like much to the Grand Guild, but it is just the investment of arming a core brigade member - of course, this investment can be reused most of the time. But in Fang Yuan's opinion, to put it simply, he has never seen so much money in his life.
If the Seven Seas Traveler doesn't count the Fairy Heart, the hull alone isn't worth that much money right now.
These seven or eight swarthy boxes were a intact Seven Seas Traveler at the moment, lying quietly in front of Fang Yuan.
He forgot about the dangerous things for a while, and turned back to Wu Xiaopang and Luo Hao and said: "Let others go and get their equipment, other things can also be taken, but they can't hinder the action, and then we will continue to break through." ”
After a few battles, Fang Ou has now established absolute authority among this team of Lufu Shield. In fact, there was no need for ZXC and Wu Xiaopang to convey his words, and everyone naturally took this as an order, as if their leader was not Wu Xiaopang, but Fang Yuan.
Even the little fat man himself didn't realize this.
And Fang Yu was beckoning to him: "ZXC, Wu Xiaopang, Luo Hao, you come with me." ”
"What are you doing, big guy?" Wu Xiaopang didn't know what to do.
Fang Yu didn't say much, and walked over directly with the three of them, and opened the boxes at once.
A dazzling golden light made the three of them look as if they had been petrified, and they were stunned on the spot.
Wu Xiaopang opened his mouth wide, looked directly at the box of gold coins, and turned his head a little stiffly: "Big, big guy, ...... this?" He can understand at this time, why the big guy wanted to say that to him before, it turned out that the foreshadowing was here. But what puzzled him was that why did the big guy ask him such a common-sense question?
When Fang Yu saw his expression, he probably realized what this guy was thinking, and he coughed embarrassedly. What's the solution, his system is different from these people, he is considered a halfway monk, and he didn't have the habit of digitizing money before this - in fact, he has been like this until now.
Miss Attila occasionally gave him some pocket money, which he had been accustomed to carrying in his pocket, rather than in the digital space, as if he had not felt the existence of the money.
Fang Yu silently took out a large handful of money from his pocket, put it in the box, and then took out another handful from the other pocket, still repeating the previous action.
Wu Xiaopang looked at this scene, and for a while thought that this big guy was performing some mysterious ceremony. But of course Fang Yu was embarrassed to say the stupid things he had done before, he put the money away, and then said to Wu Xiaopang and his party:
"Wu Xiaopang, ZXC, we have half of this money."
"What!?" Wu Xiaopang was taken aback.
Before they merged the missions, they had a verbal agreement that the loot they would get in the next adventure would be divided into eighty-two. Seven Seas Brigade Eight, Lufu Shield Two, but that agreement apparently only lasted until the mission in the secret base of the smugglers was over, so the agreement between the two sides had long since ended.
And now that Fang Yu has rescued them again, he has already been in the spirit of 'internationalism' without letting them take out the money, how can they still share the spoils equally?
Wu Xiaopang thought that he was by no means a person who did not want to repay his kindness, so he immediately shook his head decisively, and he looked at ZXC on the side, obviously the latter also meant the same thing.
But Fang Yu interrupted them and said to the two:
"Don't be too busy refusing yet, of course this money is not given to you for nothing. If our current breakthrough is seen as an adventure, you will naturally have to take on the same responsibilities in this adventure in order to deserve the reward. ”
Then he paused.
"I told you before, after taking this warehouse and getting the equipment back, I told you the second step of the plan. It's an extremely risky plan, but I need everyone's cooperation, so it's time to tell you what it's about. ”
Wu Xiaopang and ZXC couldn't help but look at him in surprise and inexplicably.
