Chapter 507: The Overlord Hardens the Bow
Since the will of the world has sent so many means just to buy time, Zhao Gao just didn't give him this time.
Under normal circumstances, Zhao Gao's personality is not extreme, every time the will of the world makes a move, he will always curve to complete the goal from another angle, prudence has become one of his labels, but this time, he actually chose to be strong!
If you don't consider the losses, forcibly breaking through this jungle that is about to burn is the most direct way, but the judgment made by the will of the world based on Zhao Gao's habits has made a mistake here. This time, Zhao Gao did not hesitate, and directly issued a military order to all the beggar troops who were preparing for battle.
"Use the summoned cannon fodder as an obstacle, and all the staff will forcibly break through within twenty minutes and break through the enemy formation!"
Zhao Gao's intention is very clear, that is, to fill the sea of fire with human lives, and to exchange the lives of his soldiers for time. No matter from any point of view, this is not a reasonable order, but at this time, the message conveyed by Zhao Gao's personal guard Zhang Yi is a supreme death order that must not be violated.
Even if you die, you have to fulfill the order!
Looking at the smoke rising from the jungle, the beggar army who had just been promoted had a desperate will on their faces, they knew that relying only on those low-attribute cannon fodder tricks could not stop too many flames, because in the burning jungle, the flames would not be the most dangerous, the smoke was.
If this is a real army, this order alone is enough to collapse the army's morale, but the soldiers summoned by Zhao Gao from the territory are much weaker in this regard, and with Zhao Gao's aura of domination, the morale of these soldiers is basically guaranteed, and they will not collapse because of such an order.
"Do you want to put the D-level and above beggar army in front to open a road to resist the flames, their attributes are stronger, and the survival rate will be higher." Fang Jingshu watched piles and piles of beggar cannon fodder rush into the jungle and suggested in a low voice. The attributes of these cannon fodder are extremely low, and they have no intelligence level, and they don't even have the fear of life and death, but looking at these resolutely dazed backs, it is inevitable that people will feel a little sour.
There were more than 1,000 "emaciated farmers" summoned by the more than 2,000 beggar soldiers, and they seemed to be densely packed, but they alone could not break through the growing flames, and the distance they opened up by exhausting their lives was only half the distance of the jungle, and it was a section where the flames had not yet completely spread.
The remaining half really needs to be filled with human lives.
Although Fang Jingshu's proposal is just as cruel, it is a good way to reduce losses. Beggar soldiers above D have the "Survival" trait, and injuries do not affect mobility. It is inevitable that the jungle with fire in front will be injured, and the vitality of the beggar army with this characteristic will undoubtedly be greatly improved.
"All E-class and below beggars will follow me out of the way." Zhao Gao ignored Fang Jingshu and gave a completely opposite order. Fang Jingshu's method would indeed increase the survival rate of passing through the jungle, but it would reduce the combat effectiveness of the entire army as a result.
It can be expected that the first time through the sea of fire will inevitably be thrown into the battle with the coalition army, and the rank of the coalition non-commissioned officers is not low, and at that time, the beggar army above D level can maintain basic combat effectiveness. If they were to be wounded right now in order to save the low-ranking soldiers, there would only be more people killed by then.
The lesser of two evils, this time Zhao Gao did not explain to Fang Jingshu.
World Will never thought that Zhao Gao would be so brutal, but he would not give up if he could be reasonably guided. The only gentle breeze in autumn and winter suddenly became much stronger, and the speed at which the jungle burned increased. Trees under tongues of fire continued to fall on the road, adding a lot of difficulty to Zhao Gao's army out of thin air.
After only advancing more than ten meters on the unopened road, the health of the beggar army who opened the road at the front had been exhausted. The lack of oxygen caused by the burns and smoke could not be solved by Zhao Gao's health recovery skills, and the warriors fell into the flames almost silently.
"Zhang Yi, open the 'Mandate of Heaven'!" Zhao Gao didn't expect to be forced to play one of his hole cards so soon.
With his order, a pale silver light opened out with Zhang Yi as the core, covering a large circle with a diameter of more than six meters, and just covered all the more than ten people who had opened the road in front.
The rules level of Legendary Equipment is obviously higher than the authority of the Will of the Story World, and the trait in the "Destiny Domain" that "all random events outside of the underlying rules will develop in your favor" takes effect immediately. The smoke that had just gathered in the middle because of the wind immediately parted to both sides, and the collapsed tree trunks no longer poured into the middle, especially on the way forward, there was actually an extra fire-free area because it was an open space!
The speed of the entire team was immediately greatly increased, and with the road opened up in front, except for a few beggars behind who were accidentally hit, the casualties were basically negligible.
In just three minutes, the team actually jumped forward for hundreds of meters, and at this time the speed of the coalition forces was getting closer and closer. Even as the sound of the jungle burning became louder and louder, the sound of the coalition forces fighting each other was not drowned, and the thick bloody gas also spread through the burning jungle.
It's a pity that three minutes is also the upper limit that Zhao Gao can support, the power of this skill is great, and the consumption is even more amazing, and at the same time, the consumption of his own and Zhang Yi's health skill power is still second, consuming 10,000 points and 1 skill point every three seconds is very tricky, in just three minutes, Zhao Gao actually threw out 600,000 points and 60 skill points!
This is almost all the gains of a large-scale team of more than first-class in a plot world, and it was easily thrown out by Zhao Gao!
No wonder the will of the world will budget Zhao Gao to give up, such a big price is not considered by ordinary people at all, and he obviously misestimated Zhao Gao's net worth - if it weren't for the fact that he wanted to retain a certain amount of health and skill power, he wouldn't care about the consumption of points at all. Maybe before entering this plot world, Zhao Gao could only be said to be rich, but in this plot world, it was different. He has almost been plundering the wealth of the entire plot world with five stones, even if all those plot silver taels are locked by the plot world and cannot be brought out, but only the various levels of props that have been exchanged have estimated that the points have exceeded 100 million, not to mention some good goods that can't be bought at all.
For example, the Wang family's calligraphy with "calligraphy" skills will be a sought-after item in the land of the gods, but Zhao Gao is not rare at all. Anyway, someone sent one every few days, and the number was so large that Zhao Gao could wipe his butt for a month and a half.
600,000 points, drizzle!
Seeing that with the disappearance of the "Mandate of Heaven Domain" and a large amount of flames and smoke attacking again, Zhao Gao did not relax, but decisively launched the "Prestige" skill on the purple equipment collar ornament "Raf", and activated the skill "Snow Embrace Blue Pass" on the "Scholar Clogs" that had not been used for a long time.
"The snow hugs the blue pass, and the horse does not move forward. Creates a Blizzard terrain equal to Intelligence/meter centered on you, dealing Ice-based damage equal to Intelligence*2/60 seconds, and slowing the movement speed of all units within the radius by 50%. Duration 60 seconds, cooldown 600 seconds. ”
The source of this equipment is very early, and it has never been replaced because of its good attributes, so I don't know that it has played a big role today. After being promoted to B level, the skill judgment effect has increased greatly, and a large area of nearly seventy meters of the fire field has been temporarily covered with blizzard terrain, and the most marginal area of the skill has also approached the edge of the jungle.
The only thing that's not very good news is that this skill also slows down the travel speed of your own units, and also draws the attention of the fighting coalition forces.
This is to be expected, and what follows is a hard-fought battle!
PS: Someone has added the group, and it will be added tomorrow.
