Chapter 115: Beauty
The violent explosion caused a silver-gray mushroom cloud to rise in the center of the battlefield, and suddenly changed the balance of power between the two sides. More than a thousand stinging snakes were wiped out in Cesar's self-explosion, and many more bugs were scarred.
As for the very center, the scorpion that has not yet had time to exert its power is not even a scumbag.
The insect swarm was originally arranged in a dense formation, which could be regarded as a big loss of vitality. In fact, Cesar could have completely exterminated the sea of insects, his soul power was solid and heavy, and if the method of self-explosion was appropriate, the power could be more than ten times greater.
However, we can't expect such a hero, and besides, the Eero elves have not specialized in self-detonation tactics. This is Cesar's personal choice.
"You seem to have an opinion about them?" Hao Yun watched Cesar's fall and sighed a little. He was a cheerful and happy young man, and some things were still too heavy for him.
He turned around and blamed Xiaobai, and his girlfriend was still laughing at Xi Luoxian, which made him a little unhappy: "This is a hero, sacrificing himself and protecting others, which has nothing to do with the strength of the power." ”
"Humph!"
Xiaobai snorted.
If others say that about her, she doesn't bother to pay attention. But Hao Yun said that she couldn't be like this. She was worried that her little brother would think she was a cruel and ruthless woman, so she explained anyway.
"I don't have an opinion about this paladin, I just have an opinion about Shiloh first. These so-called good gods, all of them are hypocrites! ”
"Oh so, then I'll take you."
Hao Yun shrugged, he didn't know Xi Luoxian. Since Xiaobai hates it, he also hates it.
"Good~" Xiaobai touched his head.
It's nice to have someone in front of you, and you don't even ask why.
For two outsiders, just witnessing an epic heroic elegy.
But for the people in Qiping Town, in addition to the shock, there is more uncontrollable sadness.
In the end, the scorpion broke through the ground, and the pale yellow mist poured out, and the soldiers and civilians of Qiping Town reacted, and it was Lord Cesar's keen intuition that saved everyone.
The garrison officer of Qiping Town, who had worked hard for many years, was a man of rare grace and might with a strict law and discipline, and the townspeople feared him more than they loved him.
Suppressed weeping rang out on the city walls, and children who didn't even understand anything cried along with their parents. Yolanda and Alveta climbed back to the tower in despair, while Captain Pablo closed his eyes and forgot to answer them. His hands gripped the conductor tightly, his nails cracking from overexertion.
In the medical station, Dr. Chanai stares at the monitor, the smoke on the screen gradually dissipating, revealing a large crater. He stopped the scalpel in his hand for a moment and was silent.
The will of the swarm was somewhat helpless to gather the remnants of the defeated army. The power it has now is no longer a threat to the town of Chiping, and it needs to wait for a more powerful force to be mobilized. And most of the insects in the hands are injured, which need to be rebuilt in the hatching tank.
However, the will of the swarm is now extremely shocked.
Not because of the paladin's self-detonation.
This level of loss is drizzling for the Zerg who are used to playing the tactics of the Sea of Worms. What really shocked the mastermind was that there was a wild beast that violated its will, unwilling to return to the furnace and reinvented, and began to beg in the psychic network:
"This pair of jade bracelets was put on by the emperor himself for the concubines when the concubines entered the palace. May we see each other day and night. But now the emperor thinks that the concubine has made a mistake, and he probably doesn't want to see the concubine again. Back then, the emperor also insisted on this ring and said to the concubines that if the prince was born, Fujin would be the concubine. But when the concubine gave birth to the prince, the emperor had already married his sister as Fujin. Even the children of the concubines will be forced to become concubines, and like the concubines, they will never be able to get rid of the status of concubines.
Your Majesty, have you ever known how painful it is for a woman to be born! There is a clear distinction between the concubines and the concubines, and the concubines and concubines are rarely taken seriously, how can you ever understand!
The position of Fujin, which should have belonged to the concubine, was taken away by others, and the position of the crown prince, which should have belonged to the son of the concubine, also belonged to someone else. All the favor of the concubine and the husband was given to her, and the concubine wanted to be content, but the concubine couldn't do it! ”
That grief! The grief is inexplicable!
The Will of the Swarm???
Although the main brain of the insect colony has no sense organs, it still feels a swishing cold air for no reason, and it seems that something terrible has changed in its own population......
Forget it, I don't understand, let's kill it.
Several approaching beasts swarmed up and tore the beast with an unknown mutation to shreds.
The small episode that took place in the swarm went unnoticed by the defenders of Chiping Town, and the grieving elves wiped away their tears and continued to watch out for the slowly retreating bugs.
The will behind this demon tide is very cunning, and the elves dare not take it lightly, maybe this retreat is also a conspiracy.
But it turned out that the swarm had no intention of fighting again that day, and even the next day it could not launch a major attack. Everyone knows that this is like the calm before the storm, the longer the swarm is silent, the more troops will be mobilized, and what awaits Qiping Town will be a thunderous blow.
Captain Pablo only hoped that the blow would come later, preferably until the reinforcements of the Burning Thunder Fury arrived. Only three days have passed since the five-day appointment, and the town of Qiping has already suffered heavy losses. In the confrontation with the acid monsters, the losses of the rangers and militia were quite large. The Treants also died a lot in the fight against the beasts.
At the same time, as a high-end combat force, the Druid Order was reduced by half, and Cesar, the spiritual leader of the people, was killed in battle.
The only good news is that the Mountain Giants are not seriously injured or killed in battle, but if these giants lose the cover of the rangers' rain of arrows, they will not be of much use in the sea of worms.
Qiping Town can no longer withstand the large-scale attack of the insect swarm.
Despite this, the whole town continued to prepare intensively for battle. Captain Pablo was temporarily promoted to garrison officer, and he hurried to reorganize his troops, and the defense force was repeatedly reduced, but the limited number of troops stretched him down.
The priests worked day and night to treat the wounded, and they also had to find time to replenish the scrolls, and the emergency treatment of the past few days had almost exhausted the accumulated healing scrolls. Dr. Chanai's medical station was overcrowded and the treatment chamber was so short that many of the wounded had to make room for other seriously injured people before they could meet the allotted time.
Because it was too crowded, Xiaobai and Hao Yun were both kicked out and had to spend the night in Yolanda's cabin.
The mages have an even heavier task, as they must enchant as many Mithril Arrows as possible. According to the experience of fighting against the swarm, when the swarm cannot be attacked for a long time, it will send out flying dragons and other air combat units.
The elves' aerial combat power is the weak link, and the Pegasus Knights are very qualified to use for reconnaissance, but let them use their scimitars against the Wyvern hordes that have evolved from the air superiority...... Both quantity and quality will be crushed.
To deal with the small number of Wyvern troops of the Zerg, the main reliance is on this Mithril arrow enchanted with implosion. This kind of mass-produced arrows from the Mage Tower have a good point-and-kill ability, but the disadvantage is that the enchantment retention period is very short, and it can only be made in battle. Enchanted arrows, combined with the precision skills of the Ranger Marksman, can pose a certain threat to the wyvern who is maneuvering at high altitude and speed.
But it's just a threat, it's like a helicopter gunship versus an infantry sniper, the air side has too much advantage. Fortunately, in general, there are not too many wyverns who invade elven towns, because the masterminds of the swarm are generally very protective of their own lives, and most of the wyverns will be arranged to guard around the lair.
Everyone was busy, even Cesar's funeral was hastily arranged. On the morning of the third day, the six Pegasus circled several times above the battlefield where Cesar had been killed before setting out.
They took the flowers sent by the townspeople and threw them from the air. The petals fell into the pit that the garrison had exploded out of itself, sending everyone's sorrow for this hero. If the town survives the war, a marble monument will be erected in its place.
It wasn't until the evening of the third day that Yolanda found a little time to find Xiaobai and Hao Yun. At this time, the two of them were in her cabin, lying on the lazy sofa with their heads on their heads, holding a PAD to brush "The Lord of the Rings 3".
This hellish place can't be connected to the Internet, and PAD can only watch downloaded old movies except for cutting fruits. But the two of them were greasy while eating melon seeds, and they also had a very comfortable time.
The important thing is not what is on the screen, but the person who accompanies you to watch the show.
"Have you eaten, I've brought you some gingerbread." Yolanda was carrying a small bag with a roasted gingerbread in it.
She had just been promoted to Captain Ranger to take Pablo's place. So I enjoyed the privilege a little and had a meal in the officer's small stove. She even eats and takes, and her father has a virtue on weekdays.
"Thanks, but I've already eaten it." Hao Yun casually pointed to a pile of snack bags on the table, "There is still a little duck neck, try it?" ”
The female elf sniffed, showing a look of disgust, it seems that the Eero elf is not interested in chili peppers.
The little unhappiness between the two of them before was relieved, and it wasn't a big deal, they were all young people, how could there be an overnight feud.
"I'd better eat gingerbread." She hugged the gingerbread and squeezed Xiaobai hard. Xiaobai reluctantly moved her seat.
"This kid is very handsome, but he can't do it."
Yolanda looked at it for a moment, then began to point at Legras. In the ** part of the plot, the elven prince Legolas cut down a war elephant by himself.
"The actor is a human being, hey, you really think he can jump more than ten meters." Hao Yun was very surprised and asked, "Yolanda, you seem to have seen a movie." ”
"Well, I've seen it from Chanai, but I haven't seen this one." She was a little concerned, so she added, "I'm not a hillbilly, I can take pictures, and Chanai taught me how to fly a spaceship." ”
"Nobody says you're a hillbilly, there are so many worlds, and everyone lives differently. I'm especially envious of you here, the air is very good. In the winter, PM2.5 exploded, and we couldn't go out without a mask. ”
Hao Yun: This is true.
However, when Xiaobai heard the word "take pictures", he suddenly came to his senses.
"Come on, Yolanda-chan." She pulled out her phone and put it together with Yolanda's head, comparing scissor hands, "Eggplant~"
Yolanda puffed out her cheeks and opened her eyes wide, and with a click, a beautiful photo of her best friend came out.
"Show me, show me!"
Yolanda snatched Xiaobai's mobile phone and looked at it carefully, a little dissatisfied.
"Liar." She said, "Xiaobai, why are you whiter than me." ”
"I'm whiter than you." Xiaobai pretended to be innocent. In fact, she deliberately shone the soft light on her face just now.
In the end, I couldn't stand Yolanda's perseverance, so I used a filter to brighten up Yolanda a bit.
"I'm going to use this picture as my profile picture." Xiaobai announced loudly.
Hao Yun stretched out his head to take a look, it was indeed very good-looking.
"Okay, but there's no internet here, so you can get it when you go back."
Xiaobai glanced at him indifferently, gritting her teeth angrily, what she was most angry about was Hao Yun's appearance, and at a glance, she knew that this guy didn't react that he was angry.
There are no mirrors to be found here in Qiping Town, Xiaobai has changed into a super gorgeous Hanfu in the past two days, and she is counting on Hao Yun to take a few more beautiful photos for her. "In the midst of green mountains and waters, flowers and quaint towns, beautiful fairies in fancy clothes wander in the midst of it, her brows furrowed, and occasionally a heartbreaking smile appears......"
Xiaobai even thought of the words, hoping to send it to the C circle to cause a sensation. As a result, Hao Yun was stunned to photograph Alice in Wonderland as a village girl returning to her parents' home, and the local atmosphere came to her face.
Not only did the photo shoot scum, but he also took pictures with his hands and feet!
"Spicy chicken!"
Xiaobai's barrage slapped directly on Hao Yun's face.
Little brother is inexplicable, what's wrong with me.
