Chapter 499: It's too early to be happy
Almost at the same time as the guys who shouted to get rid of the traitors around them, the abyssal monsters that surrounded the elves also roared and rushed over, although they were certainly not the opponents of the elves one-on-one, but there were too many of them, and there was also an obviously boss tentacle monster in the middle of the crowd to create chaos (by the way, protect Noel), so from the beginning the pointy-eared people didn't have any chance.
The people who tried to kill Noel were soon attacked by the sharp flying needles spewed out by the tentacles, and Wallace, who was at a loss for what to do, said that the speed of fire and accuracy were lacking, but there was absolutely no doubt about the power of these flying needles, once they were hit, they would definitely be seriously injured, and if they hit the vital point, they would not even have the opportunity to use the healing potion.
If it is an elite soldier who is strong enough, he may be able to do something in the face of the current bad situation, at least they will not be killed by the tentacle monster with one blow, and the impact of the miscellaneous soldiers will hardly have much impact, and it is not impossible to turn defeat into victory in the end, but Wallace They are just a group of old salted fish with no special talent and much room for growth, and the team quickly collapsed under the internal and external attacks of the abyss.
In less than a few minutes, no one came to trouble Noel, and the rest of the elves were all far away from the tentacles with teeth and claws, and in groups of two or three they were divided and surrounded by miscellaneous monsters, and everyone was too busy to fight indiscriminately.
Of course, this does not include Wallace, and I don't know if it was because he was ignorant because he didn't attack the abyss monster, or because Noel had greeted the abyss, so he changed the drunkard's label from hostile red to neutral orange, and in short, the miscellaneous soldiers who passed by ran past as if they didn't see him, and it was almost like air.
"Well, Wallace, do you want to think about it?" Noel said in an inviting gesture as he stretched out his hand to his stunned old friend in front of him, "I know that you are a soul who only cares about yourself, and often puts your soldiers at risk to risk their lives as bait in order to hunt monsters, even though you have never killed anyone with your archery skills...... It doesn't matter anymore, for the sake of our friendship for many years, I deliberately let the abyss not attack you, but only for now. Depending on what you're going to do, it's likely that things will change, soβwould you like to join me in the abyss?"
Wallace glanced at his teammates, who were not much better off than the boat that could capsize at any moment in the rough seas, and although most of them were still fighting, some of them had already thrown away their weapons and raised their hands in surrender, and the abyssal monster did not embarrass them, to which the old drunkard could only shrug his shoulders helplessly, "Do I have any other choice?" But Noel, are you sure you can really save Luna?"
"Then allow me to return this sentence to you, do I have any other choice?"
Uncle Drunkard has nothing to say about this, he can only hope that the abyss will give some credit to those who come over, otherwise Noel will not be able to blind his eyes if he is not dead.
The battle continues, but it has nothing to do with the two of them, this team of elves is doomed to complete destruction here, and no matter how much they struggle, they can't change their fate. Perhaps because of the slightly greater irritation caused by the last screams of the war dead, Wallace took the initiative to talk to Noel in the hope of diverting attention, but in fact he didn't really care about what the two were talking about.
It's a bit like having nothing to say in order to avoid coldness and embarrassment.
"Well, that, Noel, there's one thing I don't quite understand. Wallace tried to ignore his compatriots in the distance, who were desperately making the last resistance, and said to his old friend in front of him, "Abyss should have guessed that the old witch of Missel would send troops to try to destroy that jamming device, which is why he deliberately set a trap to play such a big game of chess, but why you? I mean, under normal circumstances, Abyss should choose to attack elite-level fighters, right?"
Noel first put his hand on the tentacle monster next to him and touched it twice, as if communicating with the other party, and then looked at the drunkard uncle and explained: "Because there are reinforcements from other planes nearby, in order to preserve the little combat strength left of our clan, Missel will naturally fight with the other party and only send salted fish like us to carry out the battle." Therefore, the real main force of this operation is the troops of those visitors from another world, and we are just cannon fodder to attract the attention of the abyss. β
In the distance, there was a terrible sound from the body of an unlucky guy being torn and chewed by a monster, and even worse, this guy was not completely dead, and the heart-rending screams made Wallace shudder, and at the same time, he was also afraid for a while - if he didn't get the opportunity to try out the teleportation scroll, and didn't have time to surrender to the abyss, would he end up with the same fate as that guy?
Just thinking about it, I already feel that all kinds of Yali mountains are big.
After shaking his head vigorously and throwing this thought out of his head, Wallace focused all his attention on the conversation in order to avoid thinking about it again, and he quickly noticed that something was not quite right: "Wait, you just said that we are just cannon fodder to attract the attention of the abyss, and the main force responsible for destroying the instrument is the troops of those people from other worlds? You belong to the salted fish level like me, and this kind of secret is impossible to know casually......"
"That's right, so I heard from the abyss, they have already deduced our entire plan and prepared accordingly, and neither we nor those from other worlds can succeed. Noel said and turned his head to look in a certain direction, as if his gaze could cross countless distances to see the alien army that was following behind the elven team and was looking for an opportunity to pick up the leak, "You also know that our clan doesn't have many soldiers to fight at all now, and even whether we can defend the World Tree is a question; If the Abyss wipes out their elite in this swamp and thwarts the other party's plan to sabotage and interfere with the massive increase of troops here, I don't need to tell you what will happen next, right?"
Therefore, after everyone was teleported to their destination, they were unable to find the large-scale jamming instrument that should have been very eye-catching, and it turned out that the abyss had been prepared for a long time. It's just that Wallace still doesn't understand some things, and he always feels that it is a little inappropriate for the abyss to close the net so early, which will only make the alien army behind him and others find out that the situation is wrong and become vigilant.
"However, since the main force is the elite troops of the alien race behind them, why did the abyss not deal with them but took the lead in attacking us?
Noel didn't answer this question directly, but asked in reverse, "What do you think of the strength of these monsters who are responsible for surrounding us?"
The old drunkard replied despite his inexplicable expression: "Of course, it is even worse than our group of salted fish, it is a very standard cannon fodder, and it is impossible to win if you don't rely on numerical superiority, is there anything strange?"
"Do you think that the abyss will arrange all the cannon fodder with such inferior combat power to be responsible for defense in such an important place? Attacking us first is just to give the people of the other world the impression that the abyss is concentrating on pinching soft persimmons, so that the other party thinks that this is an opportunity to take action, and then use the main force to trap them and clean up all the opponents. It's a terrible strategy, and there are no flaws in one ring after another. In the face of such an opponent, what do you think we have to do to win?"
Now Wallace was completely convinced that these things had little to do with Noel, because such a strategy of murdering brain cells could not be thought up by a salted fish like him, who could not even command a dozen or so soldiers, and at the same time realized that the real abyss was not those brainless cannon fodder monsters, and the old drunkard couldn't help but feel very glad for himself.
In the face of such a terrifying abyss, there are still people who dare to persevere in resistance, and those guys' heads are fine, right?
As soon as Wallace had conceived this thought in his mind, an earth-shattering explosion suddenly sounded in the distance, and it was more than once, as if it was a holiday fireworks, and it was very lively.
"It's getting started. Noel muttered as if to an old friend and as if to himself, "The real ambush circle of the Abyss is not with us but with the Otherworldly, and now it's their turn to be unlucky." β
"By the way, how did the Abyss set up an ambush?" Wallace also looked in the direction where the explosion came from, where he could find a few wisps of rising black smoke, "When you led the team into the trap, we didn't notice anything unusual around?"
"Because these monsters have all buried themselves in the dirt. The ground here is not only moist and soft and easy to excavate, but the abundant water vapor can also hide a little abyssal energy, and it is difficult for even ordinary detection instruments to detect the existence of monsters, let alone you?" Noel couldn't help but shake his head lightly and sighed, "The abyss is estimated to attack the troops of the Otherworldly people in the same way, the abyss is simply invincible in close combat, and those poor worms are completely finished." β
ββββββββββββββββββI'm a dividing lineββββββββββββββββββ
"My puppet is only a few minutes away from being wiped out. Nangong Rong drew his attention back from the scene on the front line, turned his head to look at the projection of a blonde little loli beside him and said to her, "You're right, the abyss monsters really used the soft ground of the swamp to make a move, and they all buried themselves in the soil waiting for my troops to take the bait." β
The golden retriever cat immediately pouted with disdain: "It's a pity that the commander of those guys is not the Queen of Blades, this trick is too bad for a three-year-old child to see." β
"I don't think the elves can see it...... And we also owe the blessing of that little dwarf, if it weren't for his detector, we wouldn't know the specific movements of the monsters around us and the extremely abnormal actions of the other party, and naturally we wouldn't be able to guess the abyss's intentions. β
The young man nodded in affirmation, admitting that the red-clad three-headed body played a big role in this process: "Indeed, although his detectors cannot detect the situation below the ground, the abyssal monsters around us who actively avoid the puppet army lure us to rendezvous with the elves are too obvious for anyone to suspect." Obviously, the other party should have set a trap in front of us waiting for us to take the initiative to pass, since we are preparing to set up an ambush, it is naturally the most appropriate way to get into the dirt if we want to avoid people's eyes and ears in the swamp with no cover. β
[So the staff officers of the Abyss and the Alliance who formulated the battle plan really didn't all wear wigs, and it really didn't matter if they murdered themselves and their opponents' brain cells so unscrupulously?]
Of course, Nangong Rong didn't say the complaint in his heart, otherwise it would definitely be another wave of nonsensical daily development, and the young man just continued to follow the words of the system: "No matter who the abyss side makes this battle plan, it must be completely disappointed now, because there is not even a single person in the troops who appeared in the ambush circle, and the little dwarf has already returned in advance with the teleportation scroll." β
Special circumstances, special treatment, the scrolls sent to the soldiers of the elven clan are all mass-produced goods with limited teleportation distance and unstable teleportation, but the red-clothed three-headed body has a scroll specially processed by the golden retriever cat, which can very stably teleport the little guy directly from the distant front line to the location designated by the system.
Now the little dwarf is probably being examined by Disya to see if he is injured, in short, compared to the elves who have been completely destroyed, he is obviously much luckier.
"Disappointment is only secondary, making the other person regret is the main thing. The golden retriever cat said and suddenly raised his hand to brush the little derpy hair on the top of his head and said with a sneer, "It's not wrong that Miselle has been really busy this time, but it's not so bad that he doesn't even know that his subordinates have fornicated with the abyss, not to mention that the uncle has blatantly and privately mobilized his troops to the forest to find his missing daughter before." The Abyss has long since seen that the traitors are deliberately leading the team into a trap or something, and all we have to do is plan it. Now, the enemy is probably excited that your puppets have been destroyed one after another, I wonder how long the other party can be happy?"
Hearing this, Nangong Rong couldn't help but subconsciously glance at the watch - after all, whether the golden retriever cat is on standby or showing her blonde loli image, it will always show the time extremely accurately, so that this auxiliary device can play the role of a watch in a proper manner.
"Well, if nothing else, the other party will probably be happy for about half a minute. β
"yes, that's a shame, otherwise I'd really like to find out the other person and see what kind of expression he will have next. β
