Chapter 235: The Delayed Journey
When the bleak sun laboriously shone through the filthy clouds on the land of Tirisfar, the vast fleet of air finally completed the long journey over the Endless Sea, reaching the edge of the Eastern Continent, and when the shadow of land finally appeared on the distant horizon, we all felt a sense of relief.
Except, of course, the warriors of the tribes, who were already a little too excited in the light of the "glory of the gods", who felt that we were marching too fast for them to enjoy the glorious and epic battles, and for these hapless natives who had been crushed by armies of demons and the undead, it was rare to be able to trample each other under their feet - thanks to the fact that they had found a supporter who was absolutely strong enough, Although this backer has now felt a bit of a collective madness.
More than three days have passed since the very beginning of the super-massive ambush.
I confess that the opening sentence of this chapter is misleading, and in fact it is not the next morning, but the dawn of three full days, that is, it took us almost four days to cross the endless sea of Rausch.
This was already a miraculous speed for the warriors of all races, the vastness of the Endless Sea was the most insurmountable distance in the world, and the maelstrom in its center that forced even the strongest ships to circumvent it extended the distance to a point where it would have been prohibitive, and under normal circumstances, it would have taken the natives of Azeroth at least a little more than a month to traverse the vast sea, and the goblin airships might have been a little faster, if you could ignore the danger of turning into fireworks in the way.
Goblin technology is going to explode.
Crossing the Endless Sea in less than four days is an incredible miracle for the natives of Azeroth, who even call it a miracle that can only be performed by the weapons of the gods, but for us it is too slow, even to the point of tickling the teeth.
Originally, according to the speed of the Xiling spaceship, even the most ordinary cruise flight, it would only take a day to cross this sea, and if the microspace jump accelerator was activated, it would not even take us a few hours to circle the entire planet of Azeroth, but the damn thing is that the enemy obviously didn't want us to come to the Eastern Continent so quickly, and we encountered more than a dozen ambushes and interceptions along the way, all of which were small in scale, but the number was just right enough for us to slow down to deal with it, God knows how the other side can still have such a large number of miscellaneous troops left after the tragic battle that night, and the Eternity-class giant ship that I don't know which encrypted space is hidden in the Dao also threatens us all the time, its powerful space jamming device makes us even use short jumps to avoid the battle in vain, so that we can only fly honestly in the way of regular cruises, and by the way, we gradually go crazy under the harassment of countless flies.
Anyway, their purpose was achieved, and it took us four times as long to complete a journey that was not at all far in the eyes of the Apostle of Silling.
Although I don't want to admit it, this time a knight-faced black super pirate dealer showed the ability to impress me, because there was no real large-scale ambush, so there is no need for chieftain-level people like Sandora and Pandora to participate in the battle, and the commander-in-chief is Sicaro, who is already good at defending and counterattacking, this black super uncle is worthy of being an excellent positional defense expert, as long as there are enough manpower, he can make his troops avoid damage as much as possible in any situation, At the same time, it brought the enemy an unforgettable damage, this excellent talent was shown as early as when he led the small vendor group near the school to successfully subvert the entire K City Chengguan team, and this time, he finally found a more suitable stage for performance, although the troops sent by the enemy to harass are far from being comparable to the first large-scale ambush, but more than a dozen miscellaneous soldiers harassment is also a force that cannot be underestimated, Sicarlo, however, relied on his command talent and unique apostolic abilities to keep us unscathed in this series of interceptions, and even wiped out seven interceptors of frost dragons without losing a single GI - a pretty impressive feat, I must admit.
In this way, although we were delayed for three days, we succeeded in making the elite warriors of all races burn with unprecedented fighting spirit, and deeply imprinted the strength of the Apostle of Xiling into the hearts of each of them, and were intercepted a dozen times without being scathed, and even completely wiped out the enemy's invading troops, such strength was enough to raise their morale to an incredible level, and from this point of view, Sicarro, who had been acting as the commander of the defensive counterattack force, contributed greatly- It would have been better if he had stopped going to the representatives of the various clans after the battle to sell the so-called "magical disc that condensed the power of light".
"They're stalling for time."
Standing on the top platform of the Sky Fortress Tower, looking at the edge of the land that was gradually becoming clearer in front of me, I was very depressed, and I knew that in addition to the warriors of all races who didn't know much about the truth and were already a little overexcited, there were many people who were just as depressed as I was, such as Sandora.
We were calculated by the enemy, and perhaps it can't be said to be a calculation, because it was simply Chiguoguo's conspiracy, and the other party did not hide his strategy of delaying time at all, so he intercepted us in a straightforward way, not seeking to kill, only to hinder, and they succeeded, and we were dragged by the endless miscellaneous soldiers for three whole days, and it took a total of four days to cross this damn endless sea.
Pandora stood right behind me, quietly not saying a word as usual, and her presence was so thin that people would always ignore her unintentionally, but I still vaguely noticed that Pandora was preoccupied today.
"It's not your fault," noted Pandora's mind more keenly than my attentive shallow nature, "and you didn't do anything. ”
At this time, Lin Xue, who is a troublemaker, once again exerted her special talent to speak regardless of the occasion, and this guy said almost without thinking: "But the enemy is indeed positioning us through Pandora......"
Shallow and I immediately glared at her viciously.
Under the gaze of the strongest couple in history, Lin Xue was quickly defeated, she raised her hands and made a gesture of surrender, and then said: "Okay, okay, I was wrong, but I'm just telling the truth, right?" ”
This is the second point that gives me a headache, although Pandora has closed the soul upload port, but the enemy still clearly controls our position, and the fact that we have been ambushed with precision for three days is a strong proof of everything, although we have changed course several times and tried various camouflage force fields, those undead miscellaneous soldiers will still suddenly emerge from behind the space gate or the clouds, giving us a big surprise and making me even more crazy by the way, and for this phenomenon, Sandora gave a reasonable explanation.
There is some kind of mysterious bond between Pandora and Viska, which is a kind of traction similar to the spiritual connection between the Asida-Asidora Twins, which has nothing to do with the so-called upload port, but should be classified as a mysterious force, through which Pandora and Viska can sense each other's presence at any time, and our location is revealed.
In fact, with the help of Sandora, Pandora deliberately sensed the accidental sister, and then found the faint aura from the other party, which was the Dark City, which has now become the enemy's base camp.
This seemingly reciprocal sharing of information is actually not beneficial to us at all, because the enemy is there, and from the very beginning we know that the Undercity is the target of our operation this time, even the all-natural duo like Little Bubbles and Clankle knows that our enemy is in the Circle City, and it doesn't make any sense for us to know that a certain leader of the other party is stationed in the Undercity, but for the enemy, it is a pretty good thing to be able to accurately grasp our movements over the vast endless sea. Because they have thus been given countless opportunities to ambush us......
This is also the reason why Pandora feels guilty, and in the final analysis, it is because of her that we are exposed to the noses of the enemy.
Maybe Viska doesn't want to hurt us, but the problem is that a mentally insane madman is quite easy to take advantage of, even my intriguing brain can come up with no less than ten ways to sell Viska in a short period of time and let her count the money for me by the way, not to mention those degenerate apostles who don't know how many years they have lived, I'm afraid that with an almost ridiculous reason, Viska will tell us all about our whereabouts, And she didn't even realize that it would cause great trouble for her dear brother.
This was indeed confirmed in the future......
As for Visk's existence, I chose to announce it after careful consideration, because sooner or later we will all face that crazy little girl, and instead of being confused by surprise and doubt, it is better to get vaccinated now in advance so as to prepare for future actions.
Sandora obviously knew that the "Immortal" plan was planned, but she obviously didn't expect that the main participant in the grand but ultimately terminated plan was little Pandora, and the queen who was used to seeing joys and sorrows couldn't help but sigh deeply about the birth of Viska.
I'm glad that everyone has a lot of sympathy for Viska and is supportive of my decision, of course, there is also Lin Xue's prophecy at work, at least after knowing that helping the other party will bring a huge boost to himself in the future, no one will want to try to eliminate what will happen to the other party, this is not a game, there is no chance to start over after the gameover.
"I'm really curious to know what those guys are delaying us for."
I bent down and touched Pandora's little head, then cast my gaze on a cluster of black dots that suddenly appeared in the distance.
Another group of enemies, but this time it should not be a miscellaneous army that came to slow us down, and came to the edge of the Eastern Continent, and it is difficult to carry out any delaying tactics at this distance, so this time we should be facing a real confrontation, not about strategy and conspiracy, but a real confrontation.
Lin Xue glanced at me, and then said: "I'll do my best, but when I get here, I've been disturbed quite severely, don't get your hopes up too much - this kind of occasion is not suitable for the prophet to deal with, and I'll leave the desperate things to you, my knight." ”
After saying this, Lin Xue had already turned around and walked towards the entrance of the passage into the command tower, while I focused my attention on the black figure that was becoming more and more obvious.
