Chapter 82: Solving the Mystery (Part II)
What the? Fifth Order!?
Everyone present couldn't help but be stunned.
The fifth order, the height that only legendary powerhouses or abyss monsters can reach.
To convert to in-game levels, be at least 80 or above elite monsters.
According to Xia Di's calculations, in this area where they are located, the average number of people who can fight is at most level 2, that is, level 30.
The 80-level BOSS, with a number of 40~60-level mobs, can be said to be no difficulty in sweeping this area, not to mention that the boss will also split skills.
How can such a strong enemy be defeated?
"Fifth Order...... Warcraft, if they are allowed to come out, it will not be a war, but a slaughter. Kayilu couldn't help but say with a solemn face.
"Indeed, unless it is called the strongest Knights of the Round Table in the court...... Otherwise. Jester gritted his teeth and muttered to himself, his eyes a little dazed, but he didn't seem to give up hope.
"Master, you just said that the seal has not been lifted, which means that as long as we succeed in stopping the barbarians from breaking the seal, the monster will not run out of the dungeon, right?"
Jester asked earnestly.
The tutor closed the magic book and said, "Yes, but it's not easy. ”
The instructor looked back out the window, staring at the sky that had become pitch black.
The sky was dotted with stars, and the moon was obscured by floating clouds from time to time, flickering and darkening.
"I think today's events have probably aroused the vigilance of the enemy, and if I am not mistaken, they will increase the number of guards in the forest area in the future. Moreover, they have thirty more magicians there. Unless your knights come out of the nest, I'm afraid that the combat effectiveness is a little insufficient. ”
"Magician......" a cold sweat ran down Jester's forehead.
Thirty magicians.
If it weren't for the elite troops of the King's army, I am afraid that before they get close to them, they will be destroyed by magic.
But if the Knights can win by pouring out of their nests, it is equivalent to abandoning the city, and at the same time giving the subsequent enemy the opportunity to annihilate their own troops.
However, the teacher's words were not finished.
"Moreover, judging from the degree of damage to the dungeon, the destruction of the seal is already a sure thing, even if you stop those mages, it will delay for a week at most, and after that, the monsters will escape from the dungeon. At worst, you'll have to go down to the dungeon and defeat the monster yourself. Fortunately, the power of the demonic beast sealed in the dungeon will be weakened to about one-third, but even so, the fact that the opponent is a fifth-order demonic beast will not change......"
No wonder the strength of the demonic beasts that came out of the dungeon was so strong, it turned out to be so strong.
Xia Di thought silently.
Jester was silent for a moment and took a deep breath.
"I see. I immediately went back to the court. Jester's face was solemn, "Abandoning on-site command was not originally what a leader should do, but now it is not a normal situation, if you can't bring back reinforcements, this is not responsible for the people who are guarding." ”
"It's too late."
However, in the face of Jester, who had come to his senses, the mentor just sighed and said slowly: "It will take you two days to go back to the palace, but reality will not give you so much time. I just used astrology to observe, and I'm afraid that their magic array will be completed tomorrow, even if they bring back reinforcements, let alone civilians by then, I'm afraid this city has been razed to the ground. And how are you responsible for them? ”
Tomorrow? So fast!?
Not only Jester, but even Kayi and Xia Di screamed.
"But, but, if you can help, Tutor......"
"Nope." The mentor looked at him coldly, "It's not that I don't want to help you. If you want to rely on me, you're overestimating me, and if the enemy is a rebel or a barbarian, I can't deal with it if you add Warcraft, even if it's just defending the city. Do you understand......? ”
The cold eyes of the tutor undoubtedly showed that she was not humbling, but telling the truth.
Even if he was fighting in his own position, it was really impossible for a fourth-order great mage to fight against both the army and the demonic beast at the same time.
Hearing this, Jester's eyes couldn't help but despair.
"Hey, isn't there a way to do it?" Kayilu, who was on the side, couldn't stand it anymore, and she couldn't help but approach her mentor and shouted, "You're the Great Magician, aren't you?" Aren't all magicians smart, and since you asked us to investigate the Monsters, there should be a way to deal with them, right? Even if he didn't, at least he should have persuaded this guy to run away with the citizens or something......"
"It's useless to take the citizens to escape." Xia Di interjected, "Let's not mention that there is no surplus food in this city, and there is no way to support the long-term migration of the citizens, let's just say that if you want to take the citizens to escape, in addition to eating and drinking, you also need a clear destination, and the residents of this city have seven thousand people, to say the least." Moving so many people at once, where are you going to escape? Do you think the enemy will not find out? ”
“…… Then you can tell me what you can do, don't just talk on the sidelines at this time! Don't you usually call yourself a master? Kayiru couldn't help but be a little annoyed when she saw that she couldn't talk about him.
Xia Di frowned and remained silent.
I have to say that this time he really doesn't have any good way, in the case of such a huge difference in the strength of the enemy and me, what can he do except retreat? Surrender?
The knights had horses, and the success rate of retreating alone was at least much higher than retreating with the people.
It's impossible to have a jade crushing tactic, right?
Just as the oppressive atmosphere spread throughout the room, Jester spoke.
"Mentor." Jester half-knelt before his mentor again, "Starting tomorrow, can you temporarily take over as the commander of this city?" I'm going to lead the Knights into battle. ”
"What ......"
In addition to the mentor, the people present couldn't help but be stunned, at this time, you still plan to fight?
Do you really want to die with the rebels? Or are they planning to abandon the common people of the city and prevent the seal of the dungeon from being lifted?
"Of course, I don't have any hope of giving up." Jester noticed the eyes of the people around him, and said with a wry smile, "I thought about it just now, since the enemy sent spies and also attacked our grain trucks, it shows that they are well aware of the lack of food on our side, in this case, I plan to send seventy percent of the troops to use their logistics place Bath as the direction of the feint, and the remaining thirty percent are the elite of the elite, and go all out to break through the forest defense line in the northwest and march in the direction of the dungeon to prevent them from lifting the seal." Therefore, the defense of the city of Yeovil is entrusted to the Mentor. ”
"Do you think that thirty percent of the troops will be able to break through the opponent's mage group?" The mentor narrowed his eyes, "And even if it is a breakthrough, I can't guarantee that there will be no abnormalities, in case the situation ......"
"In case we are late, we will be responsible for delaying the pace of the demonic beasts, and ask the mentor to help the people escape, and bring as many as we can."
"Haven't you considered surrendering?" The tutor asked expressionlessly.
"Surrender? I just heard from you that the rebels killed the displaced people who fled to them, so how can we surrender with peace of mind? The people of this city are not their toys. Jester replied with a straight chest, "Besides, the word surrender is not in the dictionary of our Lower Knights. Rather than living greedily and fearing death, it is better to die for honor. ”
Jester said, tapping his chest hard.
"Because, it is the duty of a knight to protect the country and the people."
Squeak.
A subtle voice came out of Xia Di's ears.
Xia Di turned his head to look, and Kayilu on the side clenched his fists and squeezed them loudly.
"Okay." The mentor nodded, "I can't be the commander, but I promise you that I'll guard the city until you're done dealing with the dungeon. ”
"Thank you very much." Jester put his hand to his chest and bowed, "Well, we'll be out of town in a few hours, so we'll need to be prepared and take our leave." ”
Jester turned and walked to the door, leaving the room.
There was only silence in the room.
