Chapter 261: The Mystery of the Gray Mist: The Source
"Report! Our troops are advancing as planned, and have not encountered any resistance in the middle of the march. The herald ran into the White Wolf's command post and reported the current situation to the two wolves.
"Where did they advance?" asked the white wolf.
"By the time I gathered the information, most of them had already rushed to the scheduled fourteenth junction, with the seventh team advancing the fastest and already reaching the fifteenth junction, and the twelfth team being a little slower, having just reached the thirteenth junction, but now they should have advanced farther away. ”
"Why is the Twelfth team slowing down?" asked White Wolf.
"According to them, it was because they encountered a terrible enemy on the way, and they wasted a lot of effort to get rid of this guy, and now the intelligence officer they sent to explain the matter should still be on the way. The intelligence officer explained.
"Okay, it's none of your business here, go over and tell the seventh team to let them advance steadily, not too fast, so as not to fall into the enemy's ambush, if the commander has his own judgment, he can also decide for himself, but no matter what happens at that time, he will be responsible. The white wolf said.
"Yes!" the agent received the order, and left the headquarters, rode on the earth-walking dragon, found the guidance sign with the number seven written on the ground, and headed in this direction, disappearing from the white wolf's field of vision.
"We've only been fighting for more than an hour at the fourteen junctions, and they're really fast. The White Wolf calculated the average distance between the meeting points, and found that the troops were probably advancing at the fastest speed, and it seemed that there were no obstacles on the way.
"It's all thanks to your blower, and I really didn't expect these guys to be so fragile after leaving the gray fog. The black wolf also sighed.
"Don't rejoice too soon, we still have two things to solve: first, how did the gray fog come about, and how does it work? Second, who is secretly controlling the gray fog? If these two problems are not solved, this war will not end. The white wolf calmly analyzed.
"Report! Team 12 has important information!"
Just as the black wolf was about to answer, the voice of another intelligence officer suddenly came from outside, it seemed that this was the twelve intelligence officers mentioned by the goblin before, she hesitated, and then called the intelligence officer in.
"Say!!" asked the black wolf.
"On the way, we came across a monster that could only spew ash mist outward, this guy sprayed too fast for the blower to disperse, and it was in our way, so we had to gather fire and kill it first, and we were delayed for some time. ”
"A monster that spews gray mist, can you describe what it looks like?" asked the white wolf.
"It's indescribable, it's weird, it's weird, it's not like a creature that nature can produce at all. ”
As soon as the informant's words fell, there was a commotion outside the headquarters, and the white wolf stretched his head out to look, only to see that from the direction of the twelve teams, four earth dragons ran over, each riding a goblin, and each with a rope tied to its tail, as if they were pulling something.
"Lord White Wolf! This is the monster I'm talking about! After killing it, we'll transport it!" the intelligence officer hurriedly reported to White Wolf.
Soon, a convoy of four Earthwalkers was parked in front of the headquarters, and the rope behind them was pulled by a large organism, which was covered in knife wounds and scorch marks, presumably from heavy armor and artillery.
It was a spherical creature that looked like a brain, with a pitted surface and purple flesh underneath.
"We've seen this thing once before. ”
Seeing the corpse in front of him, a figure similar to it instantly appeared in the white wolf's mind, and that time in the snake village, he also encountered a monster that looked exactly like the guy in front of him.
"That's right, so it looks like our first question has been answered. After the white wolf's reminder, the black wolf also remembered that it was the last battle that took place in the snake village, and the snake clan patriarch at that time seemed to want to summon something, but a very ferocious monster appeared from its summoning array, but the monster died very aggrieved, and was shot to death by the goblins with bows and arrows.
The white wolf has just raised two questions before, the first is how this gray fog is generated, and now it seems that this question has been answered, this monster is the culprit, and the gray fog that permeates the ground is made by it.
"We killed one before, and now another one has appeared, so it seems that there should be a lot of similar creatures, judging from the statement of the twelfth team, these creatures seem to be immobile and easy to hunt, as long as we can kill them, it is equivalent to making the enemy lose a strategic fulcrum, without gray fog, it is impossible for them to control an area. ”
"We should get the whole army informed of this as soon as possible, so that they pay special attention to it, and destroy such creatures. Black Wolf suggested.
"I agree with you. ”
After the white wolf and the black wolf finished discussing, they sent more than 20 reserve liaison officers from the headquarters to convey the latest judgment of the headquarters to the troops that were attacking the enemy.
At the same time, the white wolf asked the few earth-walking dragoons to quickly drag the monster's corpse away, this thing was too large to be placed next to the command headquarters.
"In this way, it seems that we have only one problem left unsolved. ”
Looking at the liaison officers who had already set off, the black wolf said in a low voice.
"Rest assured, the leader of the enemy will not be far away. ”
"Why do you dare to make such an assertion?"
"Because of these, let's call them the Gray Mist Beasts for the time being, these Gray Mist Beasts are like big trees, rooted somewhere, unable to move, once we turn this area upside down and kill all the Gray Mist Beasts, this leader will be equivalent to leaving the house, I don't think he may have the courage to face this failure. ”
"You mean, he might jump off the wall and fight the trapped beasts?"
"Quite possibly. The white wolf replied, in his mind, like this villain** OSS is generally more paranoid, it is difficult for them to accept their defeat, on the other hand, according to the information we know now, even if the leader of the other party escapes, it doesn't matter, and when the army of the emirate destroys these gray mist spawning beasts, this leader is equivalent to a light pole commander, he loses the gray mist, he can no longer order his subordinates, to some extent, as long as all the gray mist spawning beasts are killed, this gray mist annihilation battle can be regarded as achieving the strategic goal set at the beginning.
"As long as they can wipe out the living forces of the other party, it doesn't matter where their leader goes. The white wolf stared at the corpse of the monster that had been dragged away, and muttered to himself.
