Chapter 19 is informative
Matthias is a genius, but unlike most technologists who like to squat at home, he likes to run around collecting data, materials, or samples by himself, rather than having people collect them and send them to his lab. It was thanks to this adventurous spirit that this guy discovered the existence of the Demon Spring during his travels, and then ushered in a new era through it.
Therefore, Nangong Rong was not surprised by Matthias's arrival, but he didn't expect him to come so quickly, after all, the alliance's attack was repelled not long ago, who knows if the other party really retreated or temporarily retreated, and could make a comeback at any time? It stands to reason that the military should wait until the front line is completely safe before escorting Matthias over, but with the character of this genius, I'm afraid no one can stop it.
The messy position has not yet been completely cleared, but fortunately, there is still an open space, except for the controllers who carry out the defensive guard task and the unlucky ones who can't move with heavy colors, all the students are concentrated here. Outside, there was a large group of soldiers with loaded guns and ammunition, and there was a posture that anyone who dared to make the slightest strange move would be beaten into a sieve.
Although Nangong Rong felt that the spies of the alliance should not appear in such a place to try to assassinate Matthias......
Stepping on the wreckage of a tank that burned to scrap metal, the ordinary-looking uncle with a light blue bird's nest hairstyle raised the horn in his hand and said unhurriedly to the students and even soldiers with a look of reverence on his face: "I don't have a habit of talking nonsense, and I don't like to say some high-sounding spectacle, so let's start directly." First of all, the leaders of the squads came forward to report to me. ”
Hearing this, His Royal Highness Octavier, Vilentina, and a few others walked over to the uncle, but Nangong Rong couldn't help but raise his hand after hesitating for a few seconds: "That, what if the team leader and even the other team members are all hung up?"
Matthias squinted his eyes and looked at Nangong Rong, then beckoned to the young man and said, "You can come over too." When I arrived, I heard that the team in charge of the advance reconnaissance had been wiped out, but I didn't expect there to be a living person. It just so happens that I want to know how Warcraft behaves against ordinary mechanical weapons, Nangong Rong, you can tell me more carefully. ”
Nangong Rong, who was named, immediately strode to the vicinity of the tank wreckage, and then was blocked by several other squad leaders, intentionally or unintentionally. At first, the teenager who was bent on small calculations didn't care, but their movements were so obvious that the boy finally noticed it, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at it suspiciously, and then couldn't help but have black lines on the spot.
These guys actually blocked Nangong Rong and Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess with expressions of disgust and disgust on their faces, as if the teenager would pollute and desecrate the girl even if he approached. However, Nangong Rong was more or less accustomed to this, and he didn't pay attention to the fierce eyes of the group of people, nor did he peek at Her Royal Highness the eldest princess behind them—although the boy had never been so close to Octavier as he was today—and walked up to Matthias and looked up at him.
"Uh, uncle. Nangong Rong said hello to Matthias and then pondered the words and said, "I know you're not interested in other things, so let's pick up the key points." Overall, our squad performed quite poorly in the face of the enemy's large-scale modern weapons, with sufficient speed but poor protection, and also lacked long-range firepower, which could easily be suppressed by the enemy with numerical superiority. ”
Although Matthias doesn't have many racks, not just anyone can call him uncle, and there are only a few students in the entire academy who can call him that, and even the instructor is not qualified to do so. So when the boy called Matthias that, the expressions on the faces of the squad leaders next to him suddenly became even more ugly.
However, the initiator who made the boy call himself so unaware of this, squinted his eyes and stroked his chin and muttered, "Well, that's really the case." But you're just suppressed, not defeated, aren't you?"
"That's true. Although I can't say anything about the fact that the man is dead, there was a mistake in command after all, otherwise we would have had the opportunity to rush to the enemy's position and engage in close combat, and of course we would have paid a lot of price. Nangong Rong couldn't help but spread his hands helplessly when he said this, "But if there are enough unmanned demonic beasts as cannon fodder to attract the enemy's firepower, it is not impossible to directly collapse the opponent's chariot cluster at a small cost, just as the military did before." ”
"With the improvement of the abilities of Warcraft in all aspects, the damage and threat caused to them by various modern weapons are also getting lower and lower, which is good news. Matthias nodded and turned his gaze to the others, as if to end the conversation with the boy, "If it weren't for that purple-red demonic beast, today's battle would definitely be a great victory for the Empire and not as evenly divided as it is now." I've sent someone to collect samples to take back and study, but until then, I'd like to hear what you have to say about those monsters. After all, you've fought each other, haven't you?"
After several people glanced at each other, they all looked at Her Royal Highness the eldest princess.
"Then let me tell you about it. As Nangong Rong took the initiative to retreat, Octavir strode to the position where the young man had stood before and said, "When the other party first appeared, there were not many of them, only about one-third of our army, but their individual abilities were generally stronger. Of course, this is not the main thing, because we can overwhelm each other with numbers, the key is that they have some kind of extremely powerful and terrifying infection ability, any monster that is killed or even injured by the other party will be transformed in a short period of time, turning into a puppet of the alliance, and it feels like a zombie that can infect humans in science fiction. Matthias, do you know what's going on?"
Her Royal Highness the eldest princess was wearing a well-washed military uniform, which was no different from that worn by other students, and people who didn't know her would never have imagined that the girl would be a member of the royal family. Octavil has waist-length emerald green hair, and she usually wears beautiful trinkets such as hairpins, but now that they have all been removed, her hair is truly natural, and her fair skin is not stained with gunsmoke, but it is said that the girl's perfect body is wrapped in a military uniform that is obviously one size larger, and nothing can be seen.
The only consolation is that the girl's pretty face can be admired anytime and anywhere, but unfortunately her straight nose, small petal-like lips, and large pale green eyes have all been ruined by a slanted scar on her forehead, and she can't help but sigh like a piece of flawed jade.
It was a magical scar left by the eldest princess's father, the former emperor, from the assassination of the emperor, and although it could be erased, she insisted on keeping it. After that, the little princess who used to always have nothing to do and like to drink afternoon tea in the back garden of the palace with her friends, sell cuteness at the dance held every once in a while, and occasionally go to the street to have a close contact with the people of the imperial capital disappeared completely, and was replaced by a powerful eldest princess who sought cooperation from Matthias to let the Warcraft force quickly suppress some careerists who tried to jump out and make waves with thunder and blood, and assisted her 12-year-old brother to control the entire country at the age of 16.
Rumor has it that Octavir saw how the Emperor was assassinated, but the girl never made the details public, and given her identity, no one dared to ask anything, so the assassination remains a mystery to this day.
Of course, Nangong Rong is not interested in these gossips, just as Matthias is not interested in gossip either, this genius did not even nod and salute Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, and frowned and analyzed it to himself: "It is foreseeable that Warcraft will gradually become the main force of the army, and it is not surprising that the alliance will develop something against Warcraft, but I didn't expect them to succeed so quickly." It's a good idea to get infected like a zombie virus, but how did the other party control it? Did they use some kind of psychic spell?"
Octavier couldn't help but remind with a black line on his head: "Matthias, the most important thing right now is how to fight them instead of doing analysis. Fighting that kind of monster and trying to use the advantage of numbers is only counterproductive, and you have to form a few elite squads, like the dragon squad I led today. ”
"Your Highness, do you mean to concentrate the mythical-level demonic beasts to deal with the enemy?" Matthias couldn't help but scratch his scalp when he heard this, and said with a sad face, "But their number is still too small, and most of the resources are spent on your dragon mounts, and there is neither time nor raw materials to produce new demonic beasts at this time." ”
"Then it's better to make do with the fight than to do nothing. Her Royal Highness the eldest princess said directly, and at the same time blocked back the words that the uncle clearly put on his lips, "The rest of the students and unmanned demonic beasts are responsible for dealing with the ordinary troops of the alliance, as long as the reinforcements of the Duke of Toronso arrive in the south, the alliance can only be forced to withdraw no matter how unwilling it is." As for my dragon squad, they will still play the role of a firefighting team, so how to form a team dedicated to fighting against enemy monsters will require Matthias to use your brains. ”
At this moment, Vilentina, who had been playing soy sauce with a few passers-by and the team leader next to her, suddenly raised her hand and spoke without warning: "Well, since the alliance uses something that has the ability to strengthen and infect demonic beasts, why don't we use it too?" Of course, I mean if we can control that thing. This eliminates the need to worry about getting injured in battle, and strengthens the mount without having to work with two or three people to deal with an enemy. ”
It seemed to be a very reasonable proposal, but it made Nangong Rong break out in a cold sweat on the spot. Others didn't know what that thing was, but the young man knew it very well, and he couldn't stay calm anymore and hurriedly raised his hand and swayed it again and again: "No, no, no, this is still too dangerous after all, no one can guarantee that thing is absolutely safe, right?
However, Villatina has no intention of backing down: "I don't deny that there is a certain risk in it, but it is completely negligible compared to the current bad situation. Or do we have to wait until the imperial capital is captured, and then we regret not using this thing in the first place...... Wait, Nangong Rong, what is that thing in your hand?"
Everyone present noticed the watch on Nangong Rong's left wrist following the eyes of the pink-haired girl, which made the young man's head suddenly sweat more than before: "Uh, no, nothing, I picked it up on the battlefield." Everybody knows my situation, so it's not surprising to get some of these gadgets, right?"
A poor civilian teenager looting the belongings of the war dead on the battlefield, well, it feels very reasonable and there is nothing wrong with it. So it was not surprising that the team leaders just despised it, Octavir didn't say anything after looking at Nangong Rong, and looked at Matthias again and said: "Vilentina's proposal can be considered, but what Nangong Rong said also makes sense, so it is good to use it as a preparatory plan for the time being, and don't rush to put it into use before the battle situation deteriorates." Also, about the control method of that thing...... Matthias, are you sure you can use the sample to reverse the study?"
The uncle immediately snorted coldly with his hands on his face full of disdain: "Foolishly, don't look at who I am, no matter what the alliance has come up with, I can completely grasp it within a few days of keeping it!"
So, uncle, where did you get your confidence, it's not that the alliance has come up with some new technology, but that the abyss is secretly playing ghosts in it, do you know? To be reasonable, Nangong Rong really wanted to pounce directly and grab Matthias by the collar, while spitting on the other party's face, and telling him all the ins and outs of the matter, but it was too shocking, and the young man who didn't plan to take the initiative to die in front of everyone finally chose to give up.
Few people will believe it, and now everyone's attention is focused on the alliance that has put great pressure on the empire on the other side, and at this time, it would be good to tell everyone that there is an evil force from another world invading or something, and it would be good not to disturb the morale of the army.
But just leave it like this, I always feel that something will happen to the mythical Warcraft team that is temporarily formed to fight against the purple red monster, plus the system will definitely release a mission in the next battle, even if it is for more experience points, the teenager also decided to add a kick in it.
"Well, uncle, can you also let me join the team against the Allied Warcraft? You don't need any mythical bosses, just give me an ordinary shelling-type Warcraft. ”
"May I ask why?"
