Section 546: Operation Walding (1)
"The next meeting will be presided over by Marshal Hilger."
After speaking, Marin stepped off the podium and handed the wooden baton in his hand to the middle-aged man in front of him.
The latter came to power and began to talk about the policy that had been discussed before: "Our current policy is to stick to the defensive line and wait until the weather warms up in the beginning of spring before launching a counteroffensive. ”
Marin listened to what he said, and while walking towards the exit of this large pit used for meetings, he took off the red robe on his body, the dwarf Adamantine was already waiting at the door, and he took the red robe of the church handed over by Marin: "Your Excellency, the preparation area has been opened, and the elite members from the various mage towers are already in place, just waiting for you." ”
"Hope I didn't keep them waiting, Adamantite, put me back in the red robe to my residence, this is my letter to my lovers, if I can't come back, remember to hand it over for me."
Marin took out the letter paper that had been opened in his pocket, and the dwarf looked at them, and finally shook his head, "You should do it yourself, Your Excellency." ”
"The people of Thailand have said that there is no need to be prepared, fate is impermanent, this attack should be the first air operation in the history of the mages of this world, and the life of every mage is equivalent in the sky, so, can you do me a favor, Adamantite."
The dwarf finally took the letter with a bitter face and said, "But please come back anyway." ”
"Have the belief that you will live, be prepared to die, do your best, and obey the destiny of heaven." After smiling, Marin shook hands with Adamantite and said goodbye.
"Your Excellency Marin, the Seventeenth and Eleventh have returned and are resupplying them with ammunition, do you need to attack again and continue to expand the results?"
"No, I need them to update their infiltration equipment, and in the next battle, there may be battle mages who will make a forced landing in the Chaos Theater, and they will need to rescue them when the time comes."
Marin walks in the trenches, and the call with Jason will end as he approaches the rearmament area.
"Understand, I will complete the rearmament for the 11th and 17th, is the equipment over there really reliable?" Jason has a natural wariness of magical equipment, and Marlin feels that these core AIs are a little too worried, but considering that he is not alone, such worries prove that there is nothing wrong with his logic.
If this person is a good fan of some kind of magic equipment in the first place, then Marlin will probably have to consider whether Jason is tainted or not.
"Those guys at the Academy aren't wasting my money, don't worry, you should see that 75mm magazine gun in effect too, right?"
"That's right, but I really can't believe what these guys do." Jaylin muttered as he struggled to pick up the topic.
"Don't worry, if something really goes wrong, I'll break the bridge of their nose with my own hands." After Marin finished speaking, he voluntarily interrupted the communication with Jason while walking around the corner guarded by the soldiers.
What appeared in Marlin's eyes was a large maintenance area, a semi-buried maintenance area with a lifting area, the roof of which had been opened, and many battle mages had completed their outfits, and the wide robes had been replaced by close-fitting leather coats.
"Your Excellency Marin, you are here, we have rehearsed this operation many times before." There is a mage Tata Master who came to explain.
"Your Excellency, is your equipment a little smaller? What, to use patrilineal blood?! There was a mage, Lord Tata, who was shocked by Marin's answer.
Marin used the locker room and switched his body shape to one meter two in the paternal line - in this body shape, Marlin has a sharper sense of magic and more control when using these magic items.
After putting on the leather clothes that had been prepared a long time ago, Marlin put on a thick fleece insulation suit and pulled up the hood outside, and there will be a mask and windproof goggles, which are all money - the first goggles used artificial crystals, and Marin wanted them to use resin, but as soon as Marin said artificial objects, these mages of the Academy of Sciences directly made a bunch of artificial crystals.
It's a real thing that comes out of money.
Walking out of the locker room, Marin began to equip the one-piece floating assembly with the help of the halfling maintenance staff - this is the magic equipment made by the Academy of Sciences with the help of the Lord of Justice, with magic crystals as energy, it can pull the heavy equipment on the booklet that Marin saw before, it is epoch-making equipment, giving the mages real air combat capabilities.
………………
"I always thought Anna was lying." An old mage walked up to the master of the dwarven tower at Fort Carter, who was an old acquaintance with Marin, and he glanced at the dwarf, "I even thought you were helping Anna with her lies. ”
"We don't have to lie, old Higgs, we just didn't think at first that our mentor's plan would really work." Seeing that Marin in front of him put on the floating magic suit, those halflings began to tighten the screws, and the dwarf tower master looked up at the old humans beside him.
"No wonder the frost-giant half-breed ended up abandoning the child at Fort Carter, resentful of our mentor and for letting her child go down this path." As he spoke, the old mage pulled a cigarette out of his pocket, snapped his fingers and lit it, "But I heard she came to see him, didn't I?" ”
"Yes, last year, at Fort Carter, she met him, but she didn't recognize him...... This little junior sister of ours is also pitiful, the mentor has so many female apprentices, only she has the best relationship with him, look at Marin, he can perfectly switch between his mother's frost giant form and his paternal bloodline form...... The Mentor's bloodline and ours of the half-breed princess may seem to be in conflict, but they are actually complementary to each other. The Dwarven Tower Lord was silent for a moment when he said this: "The young child will not know that the Mentor has not returned to his world, his soul has been in contact with this world for too long, and he is no longer able to go back...... They have no idea how much our mentors have given to the world. ”
"Don't speak up, you idiot." The old human mage muttered.
The Dwarven Tower Lord nodded: "I'm just...... I just don't want the guru's sacrifice to go unnoticed...... ”
"At least we remember him, and may the truth be eternal."
"Yes, we remember him, and may the truth be eternal."
The dwarves and humans watched the child in front of them adjust for a moment, and then asked for two more turns of the screw.
In the end, they all sighed together.
………………
After the halfling refurbber tightened the screws, Marin felt the feeling in his waist for a moment, and finally nodded: "No problem." ”
The preparers began to remove the tools, Marin clapped his hands, looked at the mages in front of him and said: "Everyone, now start checking the watch, it's 0813 in the morning, half a circle after the second hand." ”
The mages pulled out their pocket watches to confirm the time.
"We will depart at 0835 and now begin to confirm our mission this time." Marin was saying that the halfling maintenance team over there had already walked behind Marin with a map of the northern border with various lines.
Marin took the wooden stick and tapped at the target: "Our goal today is to attack the town of Walding, where Chaos has set up a cauldron, the observation team composed of the Griffon Knight and the Druid has confirmed that there are three cauldrons, there are a lot of corrupt flies, our battle mages will be divided into six battle groups, the battle team led by His Excellency the Tower Master of Fort Carter will be responsible for ground attacks, they will carry bombs to attack those three cauldrons, and the other battle team will be responsible for protecting them, our goal is the corrupt flies, To destroy them before they attack the ground group, so this time we need to carry a lot of spare ammunition, the cover group I recommend using a burst of weapons, if you are confident in your marksmanship, you can use large-caliber weapons, remember, our task is to prioritize the elimination of enemies who want to block our ground attacks, if they are pursued by corrupt flies in your six-point direction, remember that you can get rid of them by accelerating in a straight line, if not, you can request support through the public channel, I will arrange for Lord Corris's cover group to protect you exclusively. ”
Marin marked the location of the cauldron on the map of the town, and then explained the direction of the entrance and the height of each battle group, then turned to look at the hundreds of mages in front of him and smiled: "Remember, with the belief that we will live, be prepared to die, we are facing a plague cauldron that will pollute the entire region if we can't destroy it, we must succeed, remember." ”
"Your Excellency, I have a question." A young mage raised his hand.
"Say it." Marin nodded.
"Why do we need to do this battle, we are mages." The young man pointed to the mages around him: "We are all mages, I think this operation is too dangerous, why can't we let the infantry destroy those cauldrons." ”
"If they don't have time, are we going to watch those cauldrons get to work and turn the whole region into a hotbed of disease?" Marin smiled and asked, "If you think that's okay, then I have nothing to say." ”
“…… Let's go and fry those cauldrons, at least I'll protect my brothers and sisters. The young mage said with a serious face.
"You see, each of us has someone who needs to be protected, and you are no exception, and I am no exception." Marin smiled and said, "If there are no other problems, we will start preparing for takeoff." ”
"Your Excellency! I have a problem! Meng Qiyi raised his hand, and the war witch girl looked at Marin: "I came here to face the new chaos, these fellow mages have people they want to protect, and you, why are you standing here, is it for Lulu." ”
"Lulu has a hand, she can protect herself, and I'm just the icing on the cake by her side, so the reason I'm here is very simple, because I can't disappoint so many people who believe in me, there are so many Northland soldiers who believe that victory can be achieved under my leadership, they believe that their families will not be forgotten even if they die under my command, they believe in me, they trust me with their lives and future, and that's why I am standing here to fulfill my promise to the soldiers, I will do my best to help everyone who trusts me. ”
After speaking, Marin looked at the thoughtful mages in front of him and asked, "Is there any more questions?" ”
"No, Your Excellency, let's go." The dwarven mage Tata Lord was the first to respond.
As the mages said so, Marin began to watch as the mages towing various heavy magic weapons walked up to the anti-gravity circle, took off with jumps, and then began to climb with the help of levitation and the power system on their backs.
"Let's go, little ones." Marin was the last to take to the air, he carried two long-barreled 75 guns with four rounds of ammunition into the array, jumped slightly, and the power system behind him began to work at the same time, and the energy that burst out in an instant with two more power vents than the mass-produced model carried Marin directly to a height of one thousand meters.
Hands free, the two mortars began to rotate clockwise around Marin, and the elves in the World Tree Twig followed Marin with twin 20mm cannons with chains.
Jason marked the positions and heights of all combat groups in front of Marin's left eye.
The Arcane Communicator began to work, and Marin joined the channel that had been prepared for a long time.
"This is Marin, I'm online, I'm starting to adjust the route, please follow me." Marin posted instructions on the public channel and began to slowly descend in altitude.
The power system of the magic equipment relies on magic crystals, but the better way is to use psionic energy directly, so the mages do not have a uniform climb speed, which makes Marlin start to consider having the fellow scientists research a better power system - at least better in terms of energy conversion, in air combat, speed and climb are life.
As for those drawings given by Marin...... If it weren't for the fact that the people of the Academy of Sciences really couldn't hammer out the engine, Marin really didn't want to use this magic method - because there was no way, so he had to make this decision, because in terms of cost, this thing should be more expensive than the engine anyway.
After all, at this time, Marin didn't have the face to say anything about industrialization, and now as long as this power system works, just blow up those cauldrons with things.
"Damn, my stomach hurts a little, what should I do." A mage asked in the channel.
"You can go to the back of the team and solve it, I think it's a solution." The tower lord replied.
"That's disgusting, isn't it?" The mage screamed.
"You have three options, young man, either pull it in the leather jacket and wait until you get back to the rearmament area to deal with it, or you can deal with it now, or you have to fight on the battlefield and get rid of it." The dwarven tower lord's grinning voice appeared in the channel.
"Then I'd better deal with it now." A member of the cover group who looked like Lord Corris slowed down, and Marlin smiled and shook his head - you see, the fate of humanity sometimes seems really outrageous.
Then again, what if there's someone down there? Thinking of this, Marlin looked at the ground.
I found a lot of white snow on the ground.
That's great.
