Chapter 302: Temptation

The three-star Warcraft already has a good intelligence, and the underage four-star Warcraft is even more able to speak, and the leader here is an adult four-star Warcraft, known as the "Iron Beast". Although this kind of big guy looks rude and arrogant, he is notoriously thoughtful. Under the command of the iron-bone Storm Bear, a column of demonic beasts like pangolins rushed out first. I don't know if it's because the overlord of this mountain range is an ironclad demon dragon who is good at defense, and it seems that the demonic beasts abundant here defend against the outstanding demonic beasts. Although this kind of magical beast is not in the stars, it is not something that the archers defending the city can deal with. Behind these monsters was a group of rats that looked like domestic cats, densely packed with hundreds. After that, there was a single two-star demonic beast saber-toothed thunder tiger, followed by a dozen one-star demonic beasts wind wolves. They will be the main force of the first attack, testing the defenses of Kemal.

"This is a stone-eating beast, and its greatest characteristic is that it can secrete a liquid that can corrode stones, making them brittle and not allowing them to get close to the walls. The spearman prepares to cover the attack as soon as it is within attack range. The rock rats in the back are able to climb the city walls with ease. Archers prepare rockets, they are afraid of fire. Prepare fire oil, and if necessary, burn the walls to stop the beasts from approaching. "General Galek knows the monsters here well, knows the characteristics of these creatures, and formulates the right response at a glance.

Dozens of warriors picked up their short spears at their feet and placed them on the battlements for easy access. Archers calmly examine their bows and arrows, relax their fingers, or ask those around them about the weakness of the rock rats.

The group of demonic beasts advanced rapidly, and a spearman suddenly began to count down: "Three...... Two...... One...... Shoot! ”

Dozens of short spears flew into the air, cutting a smooth arc through the air and falling towards the ground.

Poof, the hard-looking cuticle on the back of a Stoneeater was easily pierced, and a short spear with powerful kinetic energy slanted into the Stoneeater's body, nailing it to the ground. Unable to hit the vital point accurately, the hapless Stone-Eater didn't die, not even for a while. But it has no ability to break free itself from the short spear, so it can only stay where it is, waiting for the end that will eventually come.

After the first wave of short spears were covered, the formation of the remaining Stoneeaters had thinned out a lot. At this moment, another wave of short spears fell from the sky at a more vertical angle, reaping the life of the Stoneeater once again. The Stoneeater suffered heavy losses, and the surviving ones began to become dazed and frightened, and froze in place for a moment. At this moment, a four-eyed fire fox among the high-level demonic beasts let out a low roar, and the stone-eaters rushed forward again like puppets that had been caught in the line.

General Galek waved his hand and said: "The spearman strikes accurately, and the archer prepares the rocket to wash the ground and throw the oil!" ”

More than a dozen miscellaneous soldiers picked up the wooden barrel weighing more than ten pounds in front of him and threw it towards the outside of the city wall as best they could. The barrel smashed to the ground and split apart in an instant, and the strong-smelling fire oil quickly spread on the ground. A few rock rats passed by and sniffed curiously at the oil of fire. At this time, dozens of rockets fell from the sky and plunged into the ground. The rocket ignited the oil outside, and also ignited a few curious rock rats nearby. The igniting rock rats ran around screaming, but they carried the fire to other places, causing the fire to spread rapidly. The fire was fueled by the fire oil on the ground from the flying sword, and for a moment the fire outside the city was blazing, and a large number of rock rats were screaming and running in all directions. The next few star monsters tried to kill some rock rats to set things straight, but to no avail. The four-eyed fire fox let out a continuous roar, trying to silence the rock rats, but it could control the behavior of the rock rats, but it could not change the knee-jerk reactions of the rock rats.

The wind wolves unleashed their natural magic, and a gust of wind blew through the fire, trying to extinguish the fire, only to find that under the action of fire oil, the wind could only fuel the fire. So more than a dozen wind wolves, under the leadership of the saber-toothed thunder tiger, directly rushed through the fire and killed the city wall.

General Garek said in a deep voice: "Star warrior, prepare to fight. The first wave of all-out blows let the demonic beasts on the opposite side know how powerful we are. ”

All the warriors who had reached the stars drew their weapons one after another and rushed to the city wall, and the surging source power fluctuations spread out unscrupulously. The city included more than 1,000 people from the original garrison and the public ** team that rushed to support nearby, and there were more than 300 people who entered the star, and they appeared together at this time, and the momentum was huge, which immediately made the saber-toothed thunder tigers and wind wolves who were charging instinctively slow down.

"Battle array, kill!"

The hundreds of star-level warriors directly belonging to General Garek released their source power at the same time, and a giant sword composed of source power formed in the sky above the city wall, and with the finger of General Garek's hand, the stabbing stabbed towards the saber-toothed thunder tiger. The saber-toothed thunder tiger tried to dodge, but found that the giant sword automatically adjusted its direction as if it had locked on, and finally hit it accurately.

After a burst of dazzling light, the bones of the siege star demonic beasts, including the saber-toothed thunder tiger, were gone. The Iron Bone Bear in the distance shook its head secretly and let out a low roar. All the monsters began to retreat spontaneously, pulling away another kilometer.

General Garek nodded with satisfaction and said to Luo Han and Christine, "The beast tide is these old routines. Take some waste wood and test it first, if the humans can't shake the monster with the power of thunder, they will press it on a big scale. If the humans show the strength to threaten the leader of the beast tide, the opponent will distance themselves and wait slowly for the beasts to converge. ”

Luo Han asked curiously: "Why do you show weakness to the enemy, lure the other party to take the initiative to attack, and then kill the leader of the demonic beast by surprise?" ”

Calek glanced at Luo Han, for the sake of the other party's three-star powerhouse, and patiently explained: "First, although this kind of combined attack technique in the army can gather the source power of the star warrior to launch a powerful attack, it is not fully sure that the four-star demonic beast will be seriously injured, if the four-star demonic beast is angered, but it cannot be killed, there is no suspense about the city breaking, otherwise why should we wait for the duke to arrive?" Second, even if we do our best and kill the four-star Warcraft by luck, what will happen to the remaining three-star Warcraft and two-star Warcraft? What do exhausted warriors take to fight? Third, even if we destroy all these Warcraft, it will be a big loss of strength, don't underestimate the scheming of Warcraft, in this case, Warcraft from other places will definitely come over to pick up the cheap. ”

Christine helped explain: "Wind, you may not understand if you haven't experienced the beast tide, many places can hold out in the beast tide, not because the defenders are stronger than the beasts, but because the high-level monsters are unwilling to take the risk of injury and have reservations when attacking. If the strength we show is too weak, the monster thinks that there is an opportunity to really go out with all our strength, and once we can fight, we will attack regardless of it, it will be an unnecessary battle for us. ”

Luo Han somewhat understands that these demonic beasts are like coalition forces formed because of interests, and no one is willing to take risks when they encounter hard bones, for fear that they will suffer losses. But if it looks like a soft persimmon, it will rush up, and at this time, if you find that the skin of the soft persimmon is covered with spikes, and the monster will definitely not give up if it has been injured, whether it is for the sake of face or for the sake of anger, it will be fought by the neck once, and the casualties will increase for the defenders. The most important thing is that even if his side wins, it is not that the beast tide will be safe this time, but it will help the nearby towns attract firepower, and the fact is that there is basically a town in one country near this mountain range, and no one is interested in doing good deeds for other countries with their own lives. So in the long run, the defenders of nearby towns all adhered to the practice of not trying to fight as hard as possible.

In the distance, the iron-boned storm bear gathered in front with the three-star demonic beasts, and launched a voice of unknown significance, as if they were holding a combat meeting. Luo Han curiously asked General Garek about the combo technique, which is a unique attack method of the army, gathering the source power of a large number of low-star warriors, which can send out an attack comparable to the source force of high-star warriors, and is the most powerful force of the army when facing an enemy with strong individual strength. However, the combined attack technique requires a long time of cooperation practice, and the exact same system gong fa, which is not something that can be done by just getting some low-star warriors, and the more people there are, the more difficult it is to cooperate, and the combination of one or two hundred people like Kemal City is already considered the limit, and it can only be improved by the improvement of individual strength, and it is difficult to increase the number of people. Although the combo technique is not a secret tradition, just requiring the same system gong fa is enough to discourage many mercenary groups, and there are only a few top mercenary groups on the mainland that can use combo techniques with a certain amount of power, which is much inferior to the army.

Luo Han frowned secretly, the existence of the combined attack technique made the strength of the well-trained army stable over the rabble with equal individual strength, if he wanted to subvert the rule of the Emir family, he would inevitably have to face the tiger and wolf division of Norrant, unless he could also control a strong and well-trained army, I am afraid it would be difficult to fight against the regular army. How difficult is this?

Luo Han's mind is no longer on the beast tide, even if the beast tide breaks Kemal, they can easily break through, but now they are not too embarrassed to leave Christine and the others.

Taking advantage of the time when the demonic beast died down, Luo Han gathered the team members and told him some of his concerns. Everyone is also frowning, a task that is already difficult to do, and now there is such an existence as a combination of skills, which is really depressing. When he was frowning, Nightmare said unexpectedly: "I have found something, maybe it will help us, everyone enters the dream realm, I will show you." ”

So, ten people fell asleep collectively in a long-empty house.

In the dream, everyone appeared on a bustling street, and in front of them was Dave following behind a pot-bellied old man, walking towards him.

Dave looked respectful and said to the old man, "Lord Andre, the Dave Chamber of Commerce has recently received a new batch of dragon blood wine, are you interested in coming to my house for a drink?" ”

The old man known as Lord Andre looked happy and nodded repeatedly: "Of course, my dear Dave. You know, dragon's blood wine is my favorite, and with the golden dragon cup, it is the best enjoyment. ”

As soon as the picture turned, everyone came to a spacious courtyard. Dave and AndrΓ© sat across from each other, and the table in the middle was filled with wine, particularly striking were two golden wine glasses shaped like dragon heads, which contained scarlet wine.

Dave smiled and said, "Lord Andre, I heard that you are about to be promoted to Minister of Commerce in the near future, which is really something to celebrate. ”

Andre took a sip of the wine glass, smashed his mouth in satisfaction, and said with a smile: "This is indeed something to celebrate, but you must know that our Andre family has been in business for generations, and it is not an accident that someone from each generation has served as the Minister of Commerce." ”

Dave said: "Speaking of which, the Andre family is the richest family in Norlante, even if it is the royal family, I am afraid that it is not as rich as the Andre family." ”

Andrei touched his big belly and said, "The Emir family is a group of warriors full of muscles and muscles, and now there is no war to fight, if it weren't for the tax, they might not even be able to drink a glass of spirits." ”

Dave didn't dare to comment on the royal family, but just laughed dryly and asked: "Lord Andre, the recent chaos in the south and west, and the safety of the caravan is difficult to guarantee, what does His Majesty the King think of the proposal to increase private armies proposed by the major chambers of commerce last time?" ”

Andrei's face fell, and he said with some annoyance: "That guy Raphael said that businessmen should not have too strong force, and if necessary, they can hire mercenary groups. Damn, what does that stupid donkey know? Mercenary groups are the most untrustworthy thing in the world, for a gold coin, they can even bite their employers, and when they encounter danger, they immediately run away. Only our own guards can truly defend our property and lives. ”

Dave also said: "I really don't understand that Norrant has one of the most powerful armies in the world, but he refuses to give us businessmen who contribute the most wealth to the treasury a little security." Is he worried that we will unite in a rebellion? No, no, no, we're just businessmen, and we don't have much interest in power. ”

Andre suddenly clenched the golden cup in his hand, his eyes flashed with an inexplicable light, and he muttered: "Andrei's family has always been a business family, maybe ......"

Dave hurriedly said, "Lord Andre, cheers, I wish you every step of the way." ”

The footage stops at this point, and Nightmare adds, "De Kraft? Andre, as Dave remembers it, is Norrant's current Chief Minister of Commerce, in charge of the commercial activities of the Norland Kingdom. Andre was born into a prominent business family of the times, which has stood in the business world for hundreds of years, controlling more than seventy percent of the metal mines and grain industry of the Norrant Kingdom, and can be said to control the lifeblood of Norlante. As a result, the Andrei family has been able to enter the Ministry of Commerce for generations and sit in the position of Chief Minister of Commerce. In a sense, it is precisely because of the existence of the Andre family that Norlante's economy can be so strong, which in turn feeds back to the military and maintains peace and stability for many years. In addition, the Andre family has maintained a group of loyal guards for generations, and it is rumored that the Andre family has passed on their strength from generation to generation through the secret method of the royal family, including many four-star powerhouses. It's just that he rarely shows up. "Baidu: The Final Trial of Death: Jiezhong Literature" The latest chapter is free to read for the first time.
