Chapter 141 variables
Amy doesn't know anything about Gladyse Archibald's curiosity and suspicions.
What he knew was that the future he glimpsed in the precursor of death was no longer a cruel and cold reality.
The battle is progressing steadily.
As seen in the foresight at the beginning, the deep divers did not gather troops along the way for the final encirclement, but simply lured them deeper with small groups of enemies, luring them closer to their pockets.
Although, as a rule, knowing that this is a trap set by the enemy, it is impossible to say that you should not set foot in it.
But the Glory Ones don't have that to spare.
Steady, step by step, if you can, who wouldn't want that.
However, the revival of the old rulers is imminent, and the fall of Hemtika is approaching the final countdown, and the Glory Ones have no time to delay, if they cannot clean up the old dependents in a short time, then they can only abandon Humtika and open up a battlefield in the deep night to fight a difficult two-front battle.
So, even though they knew that continuing forward would only lead to the pockets woven by the monsters, they had no way back.
Or rather, happy to see it happen.
With the tacit understanding of both sides, it didn't take long for the Gloryers to come to the Wall of Sighs.
The eyes invariably gathered on the blood ** magic circle engraved with blood under it.
"Is this it?" message from the psychic network.
"That's it," Amy nodded, crouching down and dipping her hand in the blood on the ground, "Do you want to try sabotage?"
"Our goal is to annihilate the enemy, if not all of them, then at least to break them down. "There's no need to leave room for them." โ
"I see. As he spoke, the young man suddenly looked up into the darkness, his gaze paused slightly on the figure moving in the deep alleyway, and then stopped the conversation, "It seems that we don't have time to chat, they are here." โ
As expected, the old family members from the deep sea showed their fangs in the darkness.
- From all sides!
From the alleys, from the streets, from the houses, some walked upright on both feet, and some jumped forward on all fours.
As far as the eye can see, the heavens and the earth are full of dense black shadows, and their scarlet eyes.
Here they are!
And soโ
Artillery roared, flesh and blood flew, and in the sound of fighting, the final battle that decided the fate of Hemtika began!
There is no hesitation, no temptation, just like a gambler who loses a red eye, both sides will press their respective chips!
- You die, I live!
This is a war that no one can afford to lose, on one side is the glorious descendants of individual combat power, and on the other side is the overwhelming numerical superiority of the old family members, and the hatred inherited from the beginning of the world has caused this eternal war to break out in a tragic and even decisive posture.
Kill, kill, kill!
There is no mercy and no compromise.
The two sides were completely on fire, except for the rumbling of artillery fire in their ears, the entire battlefield was occupied by their own roars or hoarse, shrill or high-pitched roars, and the whole world was dyed bright red.
And at this moment, the blood scattered on the ground flowed on the uneven ground as if it had life, converging in the same place against the direction of the terrain.
It was the Chaos Magic Array that everyone had ignored.
Charge, charge, charge โ
The blood-colored light began to shine, and the blasphemous magic derived from chaos took effect.
Dozens, if not hundreds, of tall deep divers adorned with white bone ornaments appeared in the magic circle, and at the same time they appeared, they raised their spears aloft in their hands.
Throwing!
But before they could finish throwing, the churning flames consumed everything.
In the wails of despair, in the raging fire, the deep divers who had been devastated by the Glorious Group in another time and space were reduced to burning firewood, and thus ...... Burned out.
Well done!
After confirming the scene, Amy gave her friend a thumbs up.
- Directional blasting.
It was Joshua's ability to manipulate his own blood and ignite and detonate it.
The blood that served as energy in the Chaos Magic Array under his feet was mixed with his blood, and at the moment of activation, the silver-haired and red-eyed Glory One activated his ability to completely ignite the entire teleportation point, causing all the teleported Deep Divers to struggle and sink in the sea of fire.
Use the advantage of the prophet to wipe out the opponent's reinforcements!
"Once it succeeds," a weak smile appeared on the pale Joshua's face, "I said believe me, there is no need to waste manpower preparing the second and third insurances." โ
Yes, there are a total of three insurances in place for the implementation of this plan.
First, Joshua O'Neill manipulated the blood into the magic circle and ignited the flames at the critical moment.
If he fails to wipe out the enemy, or if the plan is overturned, the first line of insurance will play his role and detonate the "telekinetic bomb" planted in the magic circle.
And if the first insurance fails to take effect, there is a second insurance "lightning strike", and a third insurance "blocking time and space" - anyway, no matter what kind of critical situation occurs, the occurrence of accidents can be prevented to the greatest extent.
If that doesn't work, Amy Ulysses, who can foresee the future, can make temporary revisions to the plans and arrangements.
With such thorough preparation, those deep divers who have thrown themselves into the net will naturally not have any chance of survival.
But unlike the smooth progress on this side, the progress on the side of the large army is quite smooth.
There is no other reason -
Both Gladys and Amy misestimated the number of divers.
Tens of thousands?
Not only is it tens of thousands, but at least 50,000 is the foundation!
50,000 - this number alone may not be real to many people, but the total population of Hemtika is only a few tens of thousands.
It doesn't just refer to the upper area.
Rather, it covers the total population of the Upper and Lower Levels of Hemtika and the Misty Zone.
In other words, the dark half of Hemtika is densely packed with this group of half-human, half-fish monsters!
How can it be!
Gladys, who had swept all the way, knew very well that the conjecture she had just made was impossible.
But the quantity will not be faked.
Well, there's only one truth - there's more than one teleportation node under the Wall of Sighs.
Reinforcements from those monsters kept coming.
Under the suppression of the city's defense artillery, and under the bloody battle of nearly 700 glorious people, the situation not only did not change in the slightest, but continued to slide towards the abyss called despair.
Yes, perhaps most of the Glory Ones who are immersed in killing do not notice, but as the central commander who unites everyone, she can clearly perceive that although the magnitude is not large, the efficiency of killing enemies is indeed beginning to decline imperceptibly but irreversibly.
After all, human physical strength has its limits, and no one can last in high-intensity combat, and Gladyse knows very well that with the continuation of the battle and the passage of time, this situation will not only not improve, but will continue to worsen.
What to do?
Divide your forces and look for other teleportation nodes in the city - the idea is good, but it's not realistic.
Not only do you have to find the node through the vast sea of monsters under the shroud of darkness, but also find the opportunity to destroy the node under the strong attack of the monsters, if the enemies you have to face are poor and weak soldiers like this, the difficulty is acceptable, and you are afraid of meeting those elite units that can wrestle with the Glory.
Mixed in with the miscellaneous soldiers, it is even more difficult to deal with.
If you are not careful, the squads that are assigned to them may face the total annihilation of the army.
Therefore, the eldest lady of the Archibald family fell into a rare hesitation.
As a commander on the battlefield - although it was the first time to actually command a battle, she had been trained as a commander in the academy, and she actually had a very clear understanding and grasp of the battle situation, and she was also very aware of what she had to do to reverse the declining situation, but ......
She can't afford this responsibility, and she doesn't have the courage to admit the weight of the lives of dozens or even hundreds of people.
She's scaredโ
The twenty-one-year-old girl is afraid that because of a wrong decision of her own, she will bury her friends who trust her and entrust her life.
It's human nature.
However, the instinct of a good commander taught her that inaction caused by hesitation and hesitation would only lead everyone into the abyss of despair.
It can't go on like this.
A decision must be made.
Gladys was torn between weakness and strength, but her final decision did not favor either side.
Since you can't make a decision yourself, give the power to choose to someone else -
This is not an escape.
People will always encounter problems in life that they cannot solve and overcome, and learning to rely on others is a lesson that everyone must experience in the process of growing up.
So, through a spiritual network, she connected with Duke Goldsworthy.
After a brief explanation of the situation to the Honorable Man at the top of the pyramid of power in Hemtica, Gladys Archibald waited patiently for the new order to be issued.
As the lord of the city of Hemtika, he has the qualifications and the courage to make decisions.
But beyond expectations, Duke Goldsworthy did not give a clear answer.
"Go on. โ
After a brief pause, he just said.
"I," Gladys, as a front-line commander, was naturally qualified to raise objections, but facing the other end of the spiritual network, the elder whose name had almost become legendary in Hemtika, her voice trembled somewhat abnormally, "I don't understand very much......
If the situation continues to deteriorate without any thought of change, sooner or later it will be overwhelmed by the half-human, half-fish monsters.
- That's how she judged.
I also believe that the legend who stands at the top of the pyramid of power in Hemtika will not be unaware of this.
However, the Glory Ones, who are in the rear and oversee the whole situation, do not explain.
"There's no need to figure it out. "You just have to do thatโ"
Such comforting words do not bring any reassurance, even if it is Duke Goldsworthy.
But the next sentence has undoubted courage.
"Leave the rest to me. โ
