Chapter 980: Departure
I didn't bother Emilina after dinner, for she was busy picking out lightning resistance equipment from the enthusiastic officers and soldiers. Of course, I don't know how much the girl spent in the end, but it was a daily routine between her and her own undisciplined mother, and others couldn't intervene. Anyway, when we were gathering at the dock on the ground floor of the fortress the next morning to set off, the girl pulled out a lot of strange things, which were the result of her previous night.
Reality is not a game, and it doesn't mean that you can wear a resistance charm to negate the magic damage of this attribute. These resistant equipment are actually "enchanted" products, and the surface is engraved with a magic array that unfolds a defensive enchantment against a certain attribute energy, and as long as the enchantment does not break the energy, it cannot invade the interior and damage the user.
Therefore, there is no real percentage resistance, either the enchantment is intact and the user is completely unharmed, or the enchantment is destroyed and the user is covered in the face, and there is no other outcome.
Emilyina made the girls happy for a long time when she handed over these beautiful little things that had been made into rings and necklaces and bracelets, while Pearson was more interested in the spells, and his face was full of terrible expressions that he couldn't take them apart to look at them, and he finally returned to normal after being knocked on the head by the blonde girl with a hand knife.
"Well, that's it. After completing the assignment, Emilina clapped her hands and walked gracefully past me, looking very indifferent, "This is the last chance, it's still too late to quit." β
"Bridge bean sack!" I hurriedly stretched out my hand and pressed the girl's shoulder hard, and shouted, "Did you miss someone just now, or did you deliberately ignore it?
"Mi (third sound)!" the hairball above my head also made a very dissatisfied sound, helping me.
The blonde girl quietly knocked off my wolf claws and stared at me with an expression like looking at Akuya, pouted, "What kind of equipment do you need, do you still need this kind of protective item for your damn physique?"
"What the hell is my constitution, magic immunity doesn't need resistance items...... Ah, it really doesn't seem to be needed?"
Seeing that I was embarrassed and reacted, Emilina put her hand on her forehead and sighed deeply: "Do you understand? Although the lightning in that ghost place is a natural phenomenon, the source of its energy is the magic crystal mine under the ground, which is essentially magical. So if you really want to find someone who can stay in that environment for a long time without any influence, it's you. β
After a few seconds of silence, I nodded decisively with a serious face and said, "Beauty, I have completely understood what you mean. Don't worry, when I get to the place called Thunder Plains, I'll be holding up metal objects like iron bars to act as super lightning rods for you, and you won't have to worry about the possibility of being messed up by lightning anymore. β
"You didn't understand this at all, okay!"
Lu Yin, who came to see her off next to her, hurriedly covered her mouth and trembled desperately, and only after a long time did she take a deep breath and straighten up and patted Emilina's shoulder: "Lord Zhenggong, don't expect Zhou Yi Darling to give up and take the initiative to die, it's impossible, it's better to learn to get used to it and adapt as soon as possible." In addition, I am really worried that there is no complaint against Darling in the team you went on this adventure. Do you want to pay more attention to what he does weird things?"
I heard all the ponytails over thereβor did you mean to let me hear them!?
"Husband, I'll keep an eye on him. Emmilina waved her hand to signal the ponytails to release herself, and then walked to the front of the group, "Listen carefully, we will take the transport to the edge of the Thunder Plains later, and then change horses to enter when we arrive." After all, it rejects metal objects of any kind, and naturally includes machinery, which would be safer. Bailian, do you have anything to say?"
The little idol who raised his hand was named and immediately asked seriously, "Emilina, you said we were going to ride a horse, but I don't know how to ride at all?"
"It doesn't matter, we have a prepared wooden carriage, and although it is a very old thing that is seriously out of step with the times, its usefulness in this situation cannot be denied. Emmilina smiled and signaled to everyone not to worry, and then beckoned to No. 351 Gnaku, not far away, and summoned the snow-white unicorn I had seen yesterday, "The other unicorn is responsible for pulling the cart, it doesn't need a coachman at all, it still has strong strength, so it's a complete husband." The alliance is actually very complete in terms of combat materials and logistics tools, and the only thing it lacks is manpower. β
Unlike our other world, Emilina's homeland, a plane known as Drowlivan, has been at war for a long time, with civil wars and demonic invasions draining many precious lives. Fortunately, outside the specifications of a certain protagonist's halo, the little queen appeared like a shining supernova quickly, not only unifying the plane in the way of the alliance, but also turning the tide of the battle and driving away the demons, which successfully saved the world. But even Alicia can't solve the problem of insufficient population of all races in a short period of time, which leads to the situation where the alliance is unable to advance after the battle line is unfolded in different planes to suppress the demons.
To be reasonable, if the alliance had half of our population, the demon would have been pushed to the door and surrendered obediently, where would he continue to jump desperately like a grasshopper?
The little queen will be forced to try to cooperate with our loose coalition forces, and she can only count on the emerging forces to break the deadlock, or else she will have to wait for the day when the policies to encourage fertility will work. Maybe the human race, which is the main force of the alliance, does not have this problem, and the orcs of the five major and three thick don't care much about it, but for those races that are not very fertile and have a very long lifespan...... Maybe it will be a hundred years before we see the results.
In any case, the coalition has already taken the thief ship helmed by Alicia, and we will not be able to get down until the demon is completely destroyed. Of course, as foreign aid, what kind of benefits we can get is something that the top heads and brains will care about and consider, and it has nothing to do with us ordinary people.
What really interests us is that due to the war, the number of men of all races in Zolliwen is smaller than that of women, and the human beings there still have some ancient customs, so men can be blatant, and it is said that they can legally marry several wives - even the little queen herself is someone else's queen (divine beast) palace.
So in the future, if we really want to form the Crystal Palace, maybe we should choose to settle on the side of the Alliance? Well, this can be there!
"In that case, then I don't have a problem. Bai Lian nodded reassuringly, and her voice also pulled back my consciousness when my thoughts were about to fly off the line and fly out of the clouds.
Emlina looked around for a moment, and seeing that no one wanted to speak again, she waved her hand in satisfaction, "Very well, let's go." β
ββββββββββββββββββI'm the dividing line of departureββββββββββββββββββ
In my impression, the so-called Thunder Plains should be such a place: the whole plain is full of stones, so desolate that there are not even a single weed, the black and oppressive clouds in the air are all kinds of lightning and thunder, and from time to time a bucket of light blue lightning hits the ground and stirs up countless pieces of stone and soil, and the wind howls wildly throughout the plain, accompanied by dangerous lightning that makes it difficult to move an inch.
However, the plains were not covered with many stones, but were covered with knee-deep green grasses, and occasionally there were even small groves, and there were many places where flames were burning, caused by the lightning striking the ground and igniting the plants, the clouds in the sky were not dark, but gray to be exact, and I guessed the lightning and thunder, and a river that was at best the width of a road crossed the plain, bringing water and vitality to this place of peculiar bad weather.
The air was very humid, but there was no fog, but it was enough to stop the fires from happening. To be honest, with this exaggerated humidity, even if it doesn't rain all year round, it won't affect the creatures here.
When everyone got into the carriage collectively, it was still a little curious and fresh at first. And Emilina also asked people to prepare cushions to avoid our butts from coming into direct contact with the hard wood, so there was no discomfort when sitting. But I soon found out that the air was so humid that it was hard to breathe.
"I'm sorry, it was my mistake. Emilina, who was riding on an ordinary warhorse, hurriedly apologized after hearing my narration, and said, "The soldiers of the alliance are trained in martial arts, and the mages are equipped accordingly, so it is not a problem to overcome these small environmental difficulties. But I'm really sorry that I ignored the difference between you and us, and just blindly considered the impact of lightning. β
"Forget it, it's not a fatal problem anyway. The girl made me feel embarrassed by this, and she waved her hand again and again, "I just brought it up when I saw that everyone was a little uncomfortable, and I didn't want to blame you." But has this been the way this place has always been?"
"If you're expecting the air to get better, then I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed Zhou Yi, it's always been like this. Emilina shook her head with a wry smile and said, "The magic power inside the magic crystal is rich in penetrating the moist soil into the atmosphere, causing thunder and lightning, and after the lightning penetrates the soil layer, more magic crystals are exposed, and then ...... Over time, it became what it is now. Of course, these are the results of the analysis of the experts of the Alliance, and who knows if this is the case? The only thing that can be identified now is the road to the outpost, which is said to have been made of stones carried by the soldiers by hand, and is very conspicuous in this kind of grass. β
I thought that Big Brother Amberil's head must have been smashed while carrying these stones, and I couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "Wait a minute, although setting up such an obvious road is convenient for the troops in charge of logistics and supply, doesn't it also mean revealing its own position?
Sister Mei, who was sitting next to her and listening carefully, also followed up and spoke: "What Zhou Yi said is right, this is a very unwise behavior. It's too passive, what does the outpost commander think?"
As she spoke, the blonde girl suddenly raised her hand and pointed forward: "Ah, you can see it." β
It was a stone road that almost allowed two cars to move side by side, stretching into the distance through the weeds, and the slate was rough without any careful polishing, but it was definitely not heavy enough for me to move alone, and it was such a slate that it added up to more than three digits just in plain sight, which is remarkable to think about.
After all, the weather in this hellish place is extremely bad, supplies and reinforcements are difficult, there is no air support, and you have to be on constant alert for demonic attacks - in this case, the soldiers of the Alliance were able to pave the way, not to mention the consequences of exposing the base, this achievement alone is enough to make people awe-inspired.
"Why your Alliance's armies were able to defeat such a fierce demon, I finally understand a little bit now. Looking at the long road in front of me, I couldn't help but have an expression of great admiration on my face, "They must have had a hard time at the beginning, right?"
"It's so sweet, Zhou Yisao Nian. Beyond riding a horse, he was jumping up and down to open the way in front of him, and suddenly turned around and said solemnly, "That kid from Amberil didn't work hard at all, on the contrary, he and his subordinates paved the road very easily. Because these slabs are all building materials stored in the Holy Wing Shield, he directly stuffed them into his storage space and relied on his excellent spiritual power to ride a horse all the way to take out the slate one by one and hand it over to his subordinates to lay, no one has carried out long-distance transportation, everyone directly took the stone and then laid it on the spot. At most, they walked about the same distance as the road. β
Yes, this style of work is indeed very allianceal!
In an instant, the people who were born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven were embarrassed and speechless, I think at this moment, there is really lightning hitting everyone's heads, and it will not achieve a better effect than the lines of the little black dragon.
"Ahem, it doesn't matter what these little clevers are. Emilina clenched her fists and coughed in an attempt to change the subject, "The most important thing is that the demon did find the location of the outpost and attacked. β
"What is the result?" Sister Mei couldn't help but ask eagerly, "Is the damage serious?"
"Since that day, the demon's sphere of influence on the Plains of Thunder has shrunk by about half, and it can no longer pose much of a threat. (To be continued.) )
