Chapter 154 The Holdouts Ahead of the Finale
The scorching flames, the hot air currents, and the pulsing orange light in the field of vision seemed extremely hideous at this moment, like a beast crawling up from hell, with the karmic fire that devoured the world.
Lancelot, who was on the battlefield, was certainly not intimidated by the enemy's momentum.
In the past, he and his fellow knights had faced a very difficult situation against the lord and his army, but in the end, he persevered through their joint efforts, and beheaded the enemy with a sword of glory and glory.
The enemy they are facing is nothing more than a group of monsters whose actions have been dominated by killing, and although they have strong bodies and huge numbers, they do not have a chain of command, and their only purpose is to 'rush forward and devour the enemy'.
Unlike these monsters, the traversers behind Lancelot all know what to do in this moment.
Abandon the previous suspicions and live together, this is the only choice at the moment, and it is also a truth that everyone understands.
The previous contradictions did set the two sides against each other, and even had the deepest killing intent, but if they lose here, no matter what position they insist on, they will usher in the end of the end.
What's the best partnership program? That is to create a common enemy for both sides.
For Lancelot, the boy on his side, and the cowboy on the side, they were the right to stop the Flame Legion, and the rest of the time-travelers understood this, so they didn't stupidly continue to fight, but fought together against the enemy army attacking from the front.
However, due to the premise that you can't kill the enemy, the traversers who can only passively defend can't exert their original strength, and most of them simply rely on brute force to build up the wall, but unfortunately the effect is very little.
In such a team, the magicians who were once in charge of support naturally became the main force of defense.
The magicians immediately mobilized their magical powers, and the spells they created were all frozen ice, ground shattering, and wind suppression, with the aim of containing the monsters' actions as much as possible without taking their lives.
Of course, there were some who withdrew from cutting off their hands and feet, but the cowboy was quick to respond in opposition.
"After cutting off their hands and feet, as long as they are still in the fire, they can use those burning fires to restore their crippled bodies, and the final result is to speed up the process of world collapse!!"
There is no doubt that Cowboy's statement is correct, but it will not lead to any change in the status quo.
"So what do you say you're going to do?! It's impossible for the magicians to rely on magic to fend off those monsters all the time! And the barriers and ravines set up were quickly broken through! It's almost to the point where there is no way back! ”
"If you can't use the means of attack, it means that you can't deal effective damage to the target, and their speed won't slow down much at all!!"
"Once this place is breached, the rest of the place is the space that has been invaded by special magic, and who knows if it will be destroyed and affected after it passes?! We believe that guy can defeat Gu Wu!! ”
The traversers were listened to by Lancelot.
"In my opinion, it is impossible for Gu Wu to lose to the magician you are optimistic about, in fact, you should also understand this."
"Since you, a knight, think that Gu Wu is very strong, why haven't you come out yet?! Don't be naïve! That guy is just deceiving people! ”
A traverser did not agree with Gu Wu's plan, after all, he was unwilling to believe in the possibility, but was willing to follow the flow of the mission; In fact, it is not incomprehensible, you must know that the traverser grows and becomes stronger in the process of completing the task, and naturally understands the importance of the task, rather than believing in the 'possibility'.
"Don't argue, everyone, the enemy has broken through the second line of defense! Please be serious!! ”
The person who shouted so much was a teenager.
In the current ranks, the teenager is perhaps the youngest.
The 'line of defense' in his mouth can actually be divided into three lines.
The first line of defense, which is made up of huge ravines and towering walls that were originally created, can trap many monsters in deep pits and congestion outside the walls;
The second line of defense, which has a very simple structure, is a realm created by many magicians that can freeze, entangle, freeze, and blow away monsters that are trying to pass through;
The third line of defense, and nothing else, is the traversers on the scene, and at this time, they must engage in close-quarters combat with the blame at no distance, and they cannot be killed.
In fact, the second line of defense has not been broken through strictly speaking, because it has been repaired and filled by magicians, so it can be held out, but in the case of the increasing number of monsters, the magicians who will gradually lack magic power will definitely be unable to do it.
On top of that, due to the presence of flying beasts overhead, many traversers rely on their own abilities to knock them down, and only a few can bind their targets, meaning that Honkai will increase their speed in the event of the monster's death.
There is no way, when faced with a threat, the traversers who have not yet learned the containment skill can only use the attack skill, and such people still account for the majority of the team.
If you continue to be unable to resist, I believe everyone knows this.
So how do you stall for time?
The young man who thought like this looked at the location of the monsters, they were currently relatively concentrated, but as long as one of the traversers flew into the sky to intercept other enemies, the camp of the monsters would also change, and some of them would follow the traverser who took off.
So it seems......
"The goal of these monsters is us!"
"Hey, boy, isn't that obvious?"
"I mean, they're going to wipe us out, and they're not going to let any of them go."
The cowboy who had just responded to the boy replied again while firing a frozen bullet
"That's what they thought from the beginning, right? Everybody knows that. ”
"So...... In order to completely destroy the target, it will be guaranteed that no fish will slip through the net. ”
The boy looked in the other direction.
"I don't have the kind of tricks that can easily stop the enemy, but I'm one of the targets they have targeted, so if you leave here, the monsters' forces will be scattered."
"What do you mean......"
The cowboy understood the boy's intentions.
Allowing the traversers who are not able to play a big role in the 'defensive battle' to leave this position and move in the form of decoys, so that the large forces of monsters are dispersed, the number of monsters remaining to attack will be reduced, and the pressure on the mages will also be reduced.
If the pressure is reduced, the magicians can ensure that the space of the body is not affected.
In that chaotic technique, the victory or defeat of the glasses magician and Gu Wu had not yet been concluded.
Either way, you have to wait until that time comes.
Hearing about the boy's plan, Lancelot, who swung a knife and sliced the earth, was the first to stand up.
"I'll do it."
"Your Excellency, let's do it together."
The teenager chooses to take action with Lancelot.
"Our goal is to survive, so avoid fighting the enemy, just attract them to the areas where there are 'holes in the void', believing that they will all be devoured and will not be able to regenerate with mana."
"Got it, leave from the right!"
After listening to Lancelot's arrangement, the boy immediately pointed out the appropriate direction.
Seeing the actions of the two, three traversers volunteered and decided to participate together; Their thoughts are similar to those of Teenage and Lancelot, hoping to reduce the pressure on the mages and buy enough time for the people they support.
No one knew what was going on between the glasses mage and Gu Wu, but they all knew that they should not be disturbed
Listening to everyone's plans and watching everyone's actions, the cowboy who has something to do is here to support the magicians, and his bullets can still come in handy.
"Let's go!!"
The boy shouted in a serious and agitated tone, and he, along with Lancelot and the other three traversers, moved towards the right side of the line in a five-man squad.
Almost at the same time, a third of the monsters in the sea of fire were divided, and their target was obviously the three Lancelots who had broken away from the group.
Turning his head, Lancelot could also see the monsters stomping on each other, uncooperative, and in the flames and flesh, the angry monster troops increased their speed.
"Some are coming!"
The boy saw the situation and thought it was a good start.
At the same time, the traversers stationed in place saw a new hole in the void.
"No matter how much time you try, there's not much you can use!"
The traversers were well aware of the situation, so they put their hopes on the magic in the air behind them.
After the realm of chaos, what are the two of them fighting?
————
Still fighting?
Altaïr pondered the question, and as she flew into the air, she kept observing the situation.
One explosion, two explosions, three impacts, the shock of these skills shakes the earth, destroys the mountains and forests, and the team that tries to get to the magic flashpoint is bound to be greatly affected whether they are on the scene or not.
Overlooking the shattered mountain roads, forest trails, and rivers, Altaïr didn't hesitate as she locked onto the fastest team in her field of vision and launched her second attack.
The flags that had been flying in that team were long gone, the armor of the warriors was covered in dust, and the uniform lineup was scattered, and there was no ability to resist at all.
It's just that after some people reacted, they did not choose to flee and be beaten passively, but mobilized their own forces to fight back.
But they are obviously picking the wrong target in this way.
Altaïr's enemies in the past were the world's top beings, and they were also members of the hero's team, and the warriors in front of him were obviously very different from Ainz and his men.
The flying slashing light was easily dodged, and the arrows with additional magic power shot from the ground were directly cut off, and the countless blades at Altaïr's disposal were counterattacked.
The sharp blades flashed with a cold glow, and all of them rushed towards the unscrupulous counterattackers at the same time.
Originally, most of the first many attacks were only to destroy the terrain, and a small number fell in the ranks of the enemy, although there were casualties, but not serious, which was equivalent to a gentle reminder.
It's a pity that these guys ignored Altaïr's 'goodwill' and ignored the main purpose of the attack, which was mainly to warn, and began to regroup the situation in the chaos and gather the team, in a vain attempt to have a large-scale, organized passive counterattack.
Altair, who had seen what had happened, unleashed a force into the air.
The music emits light, and the dazzling impact of light violently pierces the earth, and the rewritten 'light' and 'wind' blow everything away and overturn it.
However, this only marked the end of the 'beginning', and to put it bluntly, the end of the first act, and the second act was soon staged.
Above Altair's head in the air, higher in the air than her, weapons that were rapidly approaching flew from both sides!!
The air expands, and the impact descends.
The overturned ground was completely reduced to pieces by the destructive force, rubble mixed with dirt, and the parched riverbed crisscrossed with hills, as if the whole world had been folded and exploded.
The rushing wind could not blow away the accumulated dust, and the warriors who had survived the horror struck hurriedly threw down their weapons and began to run in the direction they came.
As a result, they soon discovered that the road had long since been shattered by the attack, and there were only huge ravines, undulating ruins, and corpses strewn all over the ground.
In less than a minute, ninety-five percent of the team that appeared in Altair's field of vision had been killed or missing in the attack, and the overwhelming force was a strength that they could not fight with their best efforts.
Knowing this, the enemies began to seek a way to survive, and panic and despair spread.
Looking at the brutal outcome, Altaïr thought that the woman named Jarbede would be smiling.
Altair, who didn't continue to think about this, shifted direction.
The other team, which was a little further away, obviously knew what was going on with the others, so they were sure to prepare in advance.
The enemy's preparations had no effect on Altair's opinion, after all, she would not lose to the enemy, and at the same time she had the support of Ainz and others who were collaborators.
"Haven't you had any new news......
Altair, who had taken the time to look into the distance, was staring at the area where Gu Wu's magic was trapped, where there was a void hole, but there was no further change after that.
Although the 'Void Hole' itself is a very special and dangerous existence, Altaïr believes that this is not enough.
Thinking of this, she suddenly felt a dark light.
Raising his head, there was a huge magic circle in the sky, and from the center came an arm pierced by many blades, bound by chains, and with many eyes on his fingers!
The body is controlled at this moment!
Is there a technique for bondage?
As Altaïr prepares to resist, the dark rays that pierce the sky shatter the circle directly!
"There is a threat from the enemy this time."
Aintz, who appeared next to Altair, said.
"...... Ainz "
"You weren't at the scene just now, and we found that there was also a 'Void Hole' in the abyss in the area of the technique, and the technique was becoming more and more unstable, so we chose to move."
"It's going to be over, isn't it?"
Altaïr stared ahead, as long as he held on a little longer, he would be able to go back!!
