Chapter 27: The Ruthlessness of the Sword (Verse 7)
The dragon Hess swooped down, slamming his powerful claws into the top of a sedan car-carrying squad. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info a white light curtain lit up at the same time at the moment of collision. This blow of the mad dragon Hess seemed to be very reckless, but in fact, he wanted to use this way to specifically test the strength of this defensive array. Through this blow, the mad dragon Hess also has a certain understanding of this defensive array. This is indeed not something he can crack through a short period of violence. It seems that the only way to break through these outer defenses is to gradually consume the mana stored in these defensive circles through the Dragon's Roar.
When the dragon Hess attacked the top of this sedan sedan team in such a brazen manner, the heartbeats of the Imperial mages in it seemed to miss a beat. When the light of magic circulating on the five eyes of the defensive circle suddenly lit up, it returned to normal again. Their hearts were settled. The first step of the dragon Hess's temptation made them understand that the dragon was not strong enough to destroy this defensive circle in an instant.
The Imperial mages who had recovered their strength instantly began to counterattack the dragon Hess, and several spell shockwaves composed of fireballs, ice picks, and lightning swept towards the dragon Hess. This sudden magic attack hit the unsuspecting dragon Hess, and naturally all hits. The tongue of fire that was stirred up when the fireball exploded combined with the light of the lightning spell gave people a thrilling beauty. The thick ice formed by the Ice Pick Technique on the body of the dragon Hess reminded the mages that their attacks were indeed solid on the body of the dragon Hess.
The main reason why the mad dragon Hess, who was about to distance himself from the Imperial Mage Regiment, was able to be hit by these magics and hit so completely was that he didn't expect that this group of hateful humans wearing Imperial military uniforms would be mixed with mages. The hot or paralyzing sensation on his body made the mad dragon Hess angry.
"Roar~~~~!!!"
An angry roar erupted from between the chest and abdomen of the mad dragon Hess, and the already powerful roar of the mad dragon became more and more fierce under the blessing of this anger. This kind of irascible and extremely powerful roar of the wild dragon made these 8 mage squads like several lonely boats constantly swaying in the wind and rain. That sense of powerlessness is reflected in them.
The core circle and the eyes of the defensive circle are constantly emitting dazzling blue light. This means that the magic contained in it is rapidly working and consuming. This situation made the Imperial mages in the middle of it anxious. Because at this rate of consumption, the purple agate stored in the defensive circle could not be carried at all. At that time, once the magic power is almost consumed, his side must assign a magician to use his magic power to support the operation of the magic array. In this way, the power that the entire Imperial Mage Corps can use against the mad dragon Hess will gradually decrease.
Once the dragon Hess used his formidable strength to consume the Imperial mages alive. No matter how perfect the plan is, it won't work. Thankfully, it didn't last long.
After venting the anger in his heart, the dragon Hess also became much calmer. After all, this kind of desperate roar is also a big burden for him. Proper use of one's anger is an essential skill for a good warrior.
After partially testing the strength of this strange force, the actions of the mad dragon Hess became cautious. He chose the target of attack reasonably, in order to avoid the attack of the mages in the human army as much as possible. After some thorough testing, the dragon Hess targeted his attack on one of the weakest squads. Although the overall strength of this squad is not much different from that of other squads, its reaction speed is the slowest, which is very conducive to the attack of the mad dragon Hess. After selecting the target for attack, the dragon Hess naturally focused on attacking this team. A steady stream of dragon roars began to greet the team.
This sedan car squad belonging to the fire team naturally struggled to resist in the face of the continuous attacks of the mad dragon Hess from all directions. But in the face of the continuous attacks of the mad dragon Hess, it was indeed unbearable. After a bit of maneuvering with the dragon Hess, the reserve team belonging to the Fire Brigade quickly began to switch with this team. In the process of changing the formation, although the mad dragon Hess also wanted to stop it, but due to the continuous suppression of the firepower of the other squads, the mad dragon Hess had no choice but to watch the process gradually complete.
In the face of such a tactical arrangement by humans, the irritability in the heart of the dragon Hess became stronger and stronger. The squad that spent so much effort to target was replaced by other teams that were full of energy in the end. The helpless mad dragon Hess couldn't enter the human array at will. Because once he forcibly enters, then he will fall into a very passive situation. The magic that came from all directions like a tidal wave was not a vegetarian, and no matter how strong he was, he could not withstand it at will when he was surrounded by magical attacks.
In this way, the dragon Hess and the Imperial mage group fell into a stalemate and bitter battle.
……
Generalissimo Kazan was indeed a surprise when he first saw that the dragon Hess had been successfully separated by his own mage team. But when he saw that the Imperial Mage Regiment and the Wild Dragon Hess were fighting together, they were in a state of inextricability. The anxiety in his heart was constantly spreading. A unit that lacks flexibility loses the possibility of splitting and attacking together. In this case, it is not clear who divided whom.
Based on the current situation, it should be more likely that your side will be restricted. Although his large army can provide long-range support to the Imperial Mage Regiment through archers, such support is indeed a bit weak. Moreover, these large forces could not leave the protection range of the magic array at will. This directly leads to the fact that although he has a huge numerical advantage, he can't play it at all.
In such an embarrassing situation, he wanted to divide the battlefield's plan, but in the end he was restrained by the other party in the same way. The most fundamental reason lies in the imbalance of strength between the two sides. If his large army can roam freely on the battlefield, then the threat to the dragon Hess is not small. Unfortunately, this is very difficult to achieve.
Although I had already considered this at the beginning, I wanted to hear a certain way to make my large army have a certain mobility. But such a scenario is really difficult to realize, because the price it pays is too high.
Stimulated by this sense of pain, Generalissimo Kazan's mind unconsciously remembered the conversation with Master You Yu.
Generalissimo Kazan: Master Yuyu. The juniors recently encountered a problem in the process of formulating a dragon slaying plan, and I wonder if Master You Yu can solve the doubts for the juniors.
Master Yuyu: Oh, let's hear it.
Generalissimo Kazan: The kind of mysterious gift box that the younger generation used to deal with the mad dragon Hess is very useful in theory, though. However, the magic array used as a buffer layer made the younger troops' troops lose their flexibility. I wonder if the master has any feasible solution that can give the junior's troops a certain amount of mobility.
Master Yuyu: It's not difficult. However, in order to make a static magic array mobile, there is a corresponding price. The price is that each magic circle must be equipped with several magicians to control it, and the number of magicians in each magic circle depends mainly on the size of the magic circle. And in order to meet the needs of movement, the person used to exchange the mystery box must also be a magician. These magicians don't have to be strong, they just need to have the qualifications of a magic apprentice. The main purpose of this is to ensure the success rate of the replacement.
I wonder how many armies Generalissimo Kazan has in need of the protection of the magic array, and what is the size of each magic array? In this way, the old man can make a rough calculation.
Generalissimo Kazan: I wonder how many people can be accommodated in the smallest size of such a magic array, and as the scale of the magic array expands, what kind of growth will the equipment of magicians have?
Master Yuyu: The radius of the smallest scale is about 2 meters, and it requires a magician to preside; The maximum radius can be expanded to 10 meters, requiring 6 mages to control at the same time. As for the number of people who will exchange the mystery box, it mainly depends on your wishes, Marshal.
Hearing this, Generalissimo Kazan was silent for a long time before continuing to ask Master You Yu:
'I wonder what the fixed magic array needs for magicians?' ’
Due to the peculiarity of this magic circle, the static magic circle does not need any magician to guard it, and the personnel used to exchange the mystery gift box can also be completed by ordinary soldiers. The marshal did not need to be too surprised by such a contrast. This is the price that must be paid after the magic circle has mobility. Otherwise, if ordinary magic arrays can move at will, wouldn't the old man be invincible in the world? ’
Faced with Master You Yu's answer at that time, I was already speechless. The troops protected by the magic array want to move, but the price is too great. Although the strength of the empire is indeed very strong, it is only for the sake of conquering a giant dragon that the whole country is jumping. Let's not talk about whether his eldest brother agrees or not, even those old and immortal officials will scold themselves so that they are not at peace.
Any choice will inevitably have its limitations, so Generalissimo Kazan is now tasting the bitter fruit.
Faced with this somewhat coincidental way of returning the favor to others, Generalissimo Kazan once again fell into a predicament and contemplation. Now he needs absolute calmness and caution. After all, at this critical moment, if you are not careful, you will lose everything!
What to do???!!!
