Chapter 757: Second Hibernation
"The blue wolf combat technique emphasizes loose shoulders, stable wrists, slippery feet, and the moment of attack and defense is exerted from the waist and hips, and the amplitude of the combat action is very small, but it must be accurate and steady. This is to maximize the preservation of the soldier's physical strength in the heat of battle, if the shoulder is always hard, it will not take long for the person to get tired and lie down. ”
"Therefore, the melee breaking method of the blue wolf combat technique combines the trick of homeopathic slashing, such as using a spear, when the strength is greater than the enemy, the footwork slides forward, first distracts the opponent's weapon, and stabs straight ahead; ”
"In the final analysis, the blue wolf combat skill is a method designed for ordinary soldiers, and the fighting method is simple, easy to master and effortless...... However, are Arcane Guardians and Psychic Warriors ordinary people?!"
"Especially you psychic warriors, whose strength is comparable to that of a knight, and whose physical fitness is even better, what does it matter if your shoulders are stiff when you fight? You can only sissy homeopathic slashing, homeopathic stabbing, homeopathic hook against the enemy in close combat, and you are blind with brute force, and you are not even as good as a sword-wielding maid!"
"You see, as long as the spear is pressed like this, the spine of the half-dragon warrior will crack on the spot, even the deep and violent half-dragon warrior may not be able to push the spear away immediately, and when it holds the spear and exerts force upward, the chest will be exposed, and you can pierce it through the heart as soon as you collect it and stab it. ”
On the flat ground of Island 1, Nelson held a seven-foot-long iron spear and demonstrated the most basic combat moves to dozens of psychic warriors. A simple spear pressed directly into his hand showed terrifying might, and the iron spear pierced the air with a dull thunder, followed by a cyclone, and this was only a show that Nelson had reservations, and the strength he used was on the same level as the third-level source blood militia.
Since Nelson abandoned the two island positions, the battle between Randall's Expeditionary Force and the Swamp Half-Dragons had subsided. Once the half-dragons occupied islands 2 and 3, they no longer sent scouts to harass island 1, and the Argonian raiders Dili and Fugre naturally remained idle. Nelson led them to several counterattacks, but the half-dragon raiders were cunning, and before the dragon maids could attack the island, they chose to flee in all directions.
Several counterattacks were fruitless, and Dilly and Furgree couldn't chase them too far, so Nelson chose to retreat to Island 1. At this time, even the sword-wielding maid who lacked experience in war could see that this half-dragon tribe was afraid of losses and did not want to storm the camp of the expeditionary force alone.
The main force of the Half-Dragon Tribes stopped at a distance of 3 kilometers, and they sent more than 200 hunters to look across the island with the Randall Expeditionary Force, and from time to time they would shoot some crude blunt-headed javelins towards the No. 1 island, which were also more than 200 meters away from a long distance, which was neither accurate nor lethal.
Unfortunately, the blunt-headed javelin kills several camels, and the Half-Dragon Scout succeeds in angering Lady Lyra, who has been guarding the island. Ignoring Commander Nelson's cries, the Argonian Fury rushed to the opposite island and slashed 19 swamp drakes with her moon-wheel axe blade.
Thankfully, the grumpy little she-dragon didn't go far after her, and when she returned to camp, she slipped into Randall's sleigh and fell asleep. It wasn't until noon the next day that the half-dragons reoccupied islands 2 and 3, and they were now obedient and didn't make any provocative moves.
The two sides of the battle actually reached a tacit understanding - as long as the expeditionary force did not attack, they could be safe with each other.
Island 1 was the largest, so there was no problem with accommodating three or four hundred men, and the Randall Expeditionary Force had a very large supply and all of them were stacked on Island 1.
However, after two days and one night of confrontation between the expeditionary force and the half-dragon tribe, Randall's highness still did not return, and everyone was worried about his safety, but the three dragon maids and Caligula said that their master was safe and sound.
Having said that, Randall's followers were still not reassured, and Wizard Emerson volunteered to use his domesticated blue-eyed eagle to search for his master's traces, and this was the first time he had used his wisdom to guide witchcraft in public, and the flaming witchcraft runes surrounded his body, indicating the wizard's identity in the most intuitive form.
Everyone, including Pastor Dane, was impressed by Imerson, and whether he could see through the fog and find His Highness Randall was another matter.
In contrast, Nelson was much calmer, he was only a line away from the touch of the heart, he had a deeper understanding of the power of his master, and of course he could understand that what Caligula said was true, because he himself vaguely felt the state of his master, although it was a very vague perception, but it was very stable. This made Nelson full of confidence in his highness, and did not have that sense of panic that was about to come to disaster.
With nothing to do, Nelson gathers the beginner psychic warriors and instructs them in batches on combat techniques.
In the eyes of outsiders, the Blood-Loaded Militia has perfected the Wolf Combat Technique, but the limitations of the Wolf Combat Skill prevent them from fully exploiting their strength, agility, and physical strength. Seeing that they would only use sliding steps and homeopathic slashing techniques to deal with the half-dragon attackers, he almost didn't distort Nelson's nose.
The blue wolf technique pioneered by Tournans is very clever, but no matter how clever it is, it is also a civilian combat skill. And the third-level source blood militia has the physical fitness of the bronze knight level, so it should use the knight-level combat skills. In hand-to-hand combat, several psychic warriors were severely injured by the fierce half-dragon warriors because they didn't know how to use flexible combat skills, and the worst guy was actually bitten off most of his face by the snake demon domesticated by the half-dragons.
Pastor Dane had to remove a piece of skin from his ass and sew it onto his face, and although it was not life-threatening, he was temporarily incapacitated to fight.
If these powerful clan warriors had more advanced skills, the combat attrition would be much less.
Nelson was very sad and wanted to design a set of advanced combat skills system for the Psychic Warriors, but unfortunately he ignited the Psychic Fire and it didn't matter about the combat skills, resulting in him not having more research on the theory of combat techniques, and now he could only use his rich combat experience to guide some basic movements of the Psychic Warriors, hoping that they could break through the limitations of civilian combat skills in the next battles and reduce some damage.
Nelson didn't know that the Psychic Warrior's Blue Wolf Skill was assigned to load by Victor. None of the skills that the Alchemy Tower has, they will not. And the blue wolf combat skill itself involves the mastery of long and short and long-range weapons, which is a very practical combat skill secret method, otherwise Victor would have replaced the blue wolf combat skill for them a long time ago.
However, the spiritual attribute of the third-level source blood warrior has reached 13 points, which is much smarter than the average person, and has excellent learning ability. Nelson taught them some basic combat skills, and after they became proficient, they could feed back to No. 7 Alchemy through the memory upload function, so as to increase the level of the blue wolf's combat skills.
This can be regarded as a crooked hit.
The bear of the Northland is famous, but he's demonstrating basic moves, and the knights and ferocious warriors of House Randall have little interest. The Alchemy Militia's learning attitude was silent and serious, which made Nelson quite proud, and he took the trouble to show several combinations over and over again.
Just as Nelson was getting up, Aka, who was squatting on the ground with Bertina and playing in the mud, suddenly stood up and shouted, "The master is back, the master is back." ”
Before he could finish speaking, three graceful figures sprang out of the sleigh cart and swept towards the north of the camp like arrows. In an instant, Randall's dragon maids disappeared without a trace.
It wasn't long before the four dragon maids returned to the island surrounded by the handsome and extraordinary Randall. Charlotte was the first to run over with tears in her eyes and threw herself into her lover's arms.
With a gentle kiss on the full and smooth forehead of the Lady of Oath, Victor wrapped her arms around her elastic waist and smiled at the joyful salute of her followers.
Bertina huddled in front of Caligula, jumping to her feet and waving her freshly washed little hands. This trick successfully attracted the attention of His Highness Randall, who bent down and picked her up from the ground.
"Master, have you seen the Hydra?"
"Yes. ”
"Did it treat you to something delicious?"
Shouldn't ordinary children ask questions like "Hydra really has nine heads?"
Victor was accustomed to Bertina's unusualness, and knew that if he said yes, she would ask again: Did you bring her a piece of food for Hydra's treat?
Victor shook his head decisively, and Bertina sighed regretfully, pouting and saying, "If Bell sees Hydra, it will definitely treat Bell to something delicious." ”
Giving Bell such a fuss, Victor couldn't help but wonder that the human side was re-highlighted in the soul, and the traces of the mind that disguised the mythical creature finally disappeared without a trace.
The atmosphere suddenly became more relaxed and enthusiastic, and after a few small talks with his followers and satisfying their curiosity about the Hydra lizard, Victor began to listen to Commander Nelson's report.
At this time, the fog that enveloped the island camp was dissipating, and the half-dragon scouts occupying islands 2 and 3 were gone. Victor and the leaders of the expeditionary force sat around a small wooden table, and Nelson was the first to say:
"My lord, we fought with the Half-Dragons clan and killed a total of 164 Half-Dragons and 29 Basilis, leaving no prisoners. Our side lost 6 Beginner Psychic Warriors, 2 Elite Guardian Captains, 3 Randall Ferocious War Dogs, 19 Black Bear Dogs, and 85 Razormons. Another 18 people were seriously injured, but fortunately their bones were hard enough, they did not lack arms or legs, and after Pastor Dain's divine treatment, they could regain their combat effectiveness after a few days of rest. ”
He scratched the short hair on the top of his head, and said with a smile: "This group of half-dragons is very restrained, except for the half-dragon leader that Ms. Di Li killed at the beginning, the other silver-level half-dragons did not play, and the gold-level half-dragon leader didn't even let us see its shadow...... It is said that the bloody battle of the lizardmen is cruel, is it just this level of fighting?"
The bloody battle of the swamp lizardmen (half-dragons) is of course cruel, but in the final analysis, it is to maintain the balance of the swamp ecology and regularly engage in a survival competition for the survival of the fittest. Due to the dynamic vision, the half-dragon hunters throw javelins at each other, and the hunters with weak blood are killed on the spot, the slightly stronger ones can escape the battlefield and become exiles, and the strongest half-dragons can see the trajectory of the javelin's flight, and they themselves are rough and thick, and there is basically no loss, when the number of members of the two groups drops to a certain percentage, they will melt into a new race.
The swamp orcs have an extremely weak concept of kinship and pursue a primitive way of life, but it does not mean that they have no wisdom, especially the half-dragon leader of the gold rank can even fight against the bloodline will of the hydra lizard to a certain extent, and have autonomy.
The leader of the nearby half-dragon tribe showed a cunning side, it has been waiting for reinforcements from other tribes, and if the reinforcements do not come, it is naturally unwilling to fight the powerful Randall Expeditionary Force to the end, and consume its own strength in vain.
The swamp lizardfolk have a well-founded reputation for cowardice, but the first goal of all intelligent species is to survive. The primitive Half-Dragons don't have the slightest sense of honor, and the way they fight with Randall's Expeditionary Force makes that abundantly clear.
Of course, the Half-Dragons were much stronger than Randall's Expeditionary Force, and if they tried their best, Nelson wouldn't be able to parry. However, Victor had taken precautions beforehand, and although he had gone 40 kilometers to meet with Hydra, the location of the island camp was beyond his realm of perception, but he and the Dragon Maid had a heart-to-heart connection and could order the expeditionary force to break out of the siege in time before the half-dragons launched a full-scale attack.
The strength of the half-dragon hunters is uneven, most of them are ordinary half-dragon hunters, they can't keep up with the speed of the Randall expeditionary force, and the fierce half-dragon people who can pursue will be counter-killed by the expeditionary force. Therefore, as long as the mobility advantage of the expeditionary force is fully utilized, this half-dragon tribe will hardly pose a major threat to the expeditionary force.
Victor ran 40 kilometers away to block the Hydra precisely because the radius of the Misty Realm was only more than 40 kilometers, and the Randall Expeditionary Force had the Dragon Maid and Caligula to lead the way, and it was easy to get out of the Misty Zone.
The attack and defense of the island were always under Victor's control, and even the dragon maid Lyra's provocation to counter the half-dragon scout was also instigated by him. In fact, Victor had Nelson lead the family knights and ferocious warriors, as well as wizards and high-ranking priests, on a thrilling combat drill.
Imerson didn't know anything about this, and he didn't forget to show his credit to Victor, saying, "My honorable master, my razormon is basically dead, and it will take 5 days for the remaining red-eyed rats to be transformed into razormons." However, there are not enough flesh in the camp to breed new Razormon. The half-dragon robbers stole some supplies, and more than half of the more than 100 antelope camels were lost, and less than 60 remained. ”
Victor nodded approvingly, without Wizard Emerson's alien beast cannon fodder in front of him, the casualties of the alchemy militia would never be more than 20 people.
"It doesn't matter, the camel is a camel beast used to help us cross the swamp, and also serves as a ration for war beasts. Victor pressed Emerson's shoulder and said with a smile: "With you, are you afraid that there will be no camel beasts when we reach the prairie?"
The flattered wizard patted his chest and swore that he would never disappoint his master.
"Imerson, you've got a lot to do. Victor let go of his hand, turned to Dane, and said, "I have communicated with the Lord of the nearby swamp and reached an agreement. As long as the human armies pass through his territory in a quiet manner, he will not summon half-dragon minions to wage a bloody battle against the humans. ”
Everyone suddenly exclaimed, and Nelson stumbled and asked, "My lord, you, can you talk to Hydra?"
"Stupid! that's not what you should ask!" the dragon maid Lyra was the first to scold.
"Is the majesty of the king beyond what you can imagine?" said Daph Dirille, who also sneered, taking the opportunity to squeeze Charlotte away, holding Victor's arm, and grabbing her master to pet.
Dane is a mixed bag, Victor and Hydra talk to show that he is only one step away from the full awakening of the bloodline, and the process of transforming the Sun Elves is irreversible, but the noble Randall has not yet allowed Sylvia to give birth to an heir. This is not only a great loss to the human realm, but it will also completely anger the god knights.
Overall, though, it's a good thing that human armies are able to safely cross the Swamp. Pastor Dane thought for a moment and asked in a deep voice, "Your Highness, what do you mean by 'quiet'?"
"This will require you to negotiate with the leaders of the Half-Dragon clan...... Including the route of the human legion through the swamp, you must also find out to the half-dragon leaders. ”
Charlotte was surprised and asked, "Honey, don't you just ask?"
Victor shook his head, his dark golden eyes hid a trace of excitement and anticipation, and said in a deep voice: "I will be dormant for 10 days, there is nothing particularly important, do not disturb me." If necessary......"
His gaze swept over the four beautiful-looking dragon maids, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I will wake up in time." ”
